Contaminated sausages 'kill 12 people' in Denmark listeria outbreak
Authorities traced bacteria back to 'Rullepoelse' from factory near Copenhagen
Wednesday 13 August 2014
A listeria outbreak caused by contaminated sausages is believed to have caused the deaths of at least 12 people in Denmark.
Officials traced the deadly bacteria back to a meat producer in Hedehusene, near Copenhagen.
Steen Ethelberg, from the national health agency Statens Serum Institut (SSI), said listeriosis, caused by the contamination, hit elderly people and those weakened by other illnesses.
Eight people known to be infected since the start of the outbreak have survived and the SSI is working to find any other cases.
The first person died on 13 September and the latest recorded death was on 9 August, with most deaths coming in the last three months, authorities said.
Mr Ethelberg called the outbreak "serious" but said it was believed to be under control after the authorities traced the source of the bacteria to rolled pork sausages called Rullepoelse.
The popular product is typically made of flattened pork belly stuffed with spices and herbs, which is then rolled up, sliced and served cold.
Danish sliced rolled meat speciality called Rullepoelse By comparing cells from the infection in the 20 patients with listeria bacteria in several products made by Jørn A. Rullepølser, the SSI linked the outbreak to the company.
Its factory was immediately shut down after the discovery on Monday and 20 employees were sent home as sales stopped.
All products were recalled but it was not immediately clear whether any had been exported. Officials are checking whether any were sent to schools or restaurants.
The company has been investigated by food authorities before, Danish newspaper Ekstra Bladet reported.
In 1999, a batch of cooked brisket was withdrawn after listeria was found, and in 2012 it was ordered to withdraw a batch of saveloys.
Christina Lowies Jensen, from Jørn A. Rullepølser, told Denmark's TV2 station they were first contacted by the food administration on Monday.
"This is completely incomprehensible for us. It is a very complex case and we don't understand what went wrong," she said.
Listeria causes the infection listeriosis, which can be fatal in young children, the elderly and those with weakened immune systems.
The bacteria can have particularly harmful effects on pregnant women, including miscarriage and stillbirths.
In most people, listeriosis is mild and causes symptoms including a high temperature, vomiting and diarrhoea that usually pass within three days without the need for treatment.

Then what starts in the adjoining room, starts afresh. And I feel if wainscoting is used everywhere, it is just too much. I think better to think of it

Wounded police officers' suit in Greenland shootout gets one more chance from judge
Greenland police Chief Michael Maloney pulled one of the wounded officers to safety before being shot and killed by Mutrie. Cullen Mutrie then killed his girlfriend, Brittany Tibbets, and turned the gun on himself, ending an hours-long standoff.
The lawsuit does not name the officers, but they have been identified by authorities as Newmarket Detective Scott Kukesh, University of New Hampshire Detective Eric Kulberg, Rochester Detective Jeremiah Murphy, and Dover Detective Gregory Turner.
Donald Smith, a lawyer who represents Beverly Mutrie, said the report by the Greenland Review Commission already makes clear that the handgun used by Cullen Mutrie to shoot the four officers — a .357 magnum revolver — was bought by Tibbets at a Manchester gun show.
McHugh denied Smith's latest argued to dismiss the lawsuit on Oct. 3.
The officers argue that Beverly Mutrie's control over the trust gives them grounds to hold her legally responsible. The officer's allege she knew of her son's drug activities and allowed crimes to occur.

I was coming from out of state and didn't always have advance notice of my travel plans. James was able to show me around on short notice, was great to work with, and patient while I tried to figure out where (city/area) I wanted to live. He offers valuable advice and opinions, and tells you the truth, not just what you want to hear. I highly recommend James Stephens, and will recommend him to anyone I know looking for homes in the Parker County area.

Ratings & Reviews
I wanted to let you know that James has worked very hard trying to find a perfect home for us. He is very pleasant and has a good personality. We really enjoyed working with him and he has went out of his way for us. Very professional answered all of our ?'s as we had several that we needed answered. I would definitely recommended him to others and if we ever wanted to move again in the area of Texas we would ask for him again. I recommend that he gets a bonus or some sort of an award for the great job that he does. If all your employees are like James you must have a successful business. He even went out of his way and invited us to Easter dinner since we was in Texas waiting to find our home. As we did not go, we did thank him and thought that was very generous of him. Please acknowledge him for his great personality and it sure has been a pleasure working with him. He is working with us on a house in Springtown Texas.
My wife and I have been looking for homes for the past two months. During that time we have had many interactions with James Stephens. We have found James to be very knowledgeable and professional. He is very personable, easy going, and quick to return a phone call. My wife and I would highly recommend James for anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Tacoma (WA) commercial apartment / condominium building for lease, Tacoma commercial real estate for lease or rent
Tacoma apartment and condo buildings are sometimes great investments as they can be leased in part or in whole to a single tenant or several tenants. If the whole Tacoma building is to be leased, the lessee can be responsible (most likely) for all the upkeep and service charges related to the apartments or condominiums.
Leasing an apartment building can help you achieve your dreams of obtaining investment property earlier if you are lacking the immense up-front costs it takes, e.g. down payment and closing costs. However, you should be careful and research the Tacoma property is free of any bank liens. Have a competent Tacoma attorney draft the contract to ensure your interests are protected and your investment intact if the owner dies, disappears, or files bankruptcy.

They beat the teams that they were required to beat, including the Steven Strasburg-less Nationals.
That Giant-Nationals series sure was a doozy.
Oh, yeah, the Giants had pitching! Really? What I saw was professional hitters looking amateurish swinging at pitches a foot out of the strike zone and then taking a strike "right down the middle." Why? Who knows? They just slumped at the wrong time.

Ruthless Dutch rip shell-shocked Spain to shreds
SALVADOR Brazil
SALVADOR Brazil (Reuters) - A rampant Netherlands team inflicted a heaviest World Cup defeat on holders Spain in over 60 years with a dazzling 5-1 demolition on Friday that sent shockwaves through the tournament.
The Dutch were nothing but brutal in a tetchy 1-0 final defeat by the Spaniards four years ago, but they set out to disrupt the champions' possession game and blew them away with two goals each from Robin van Persie and Arjen Robben.
Only once before had Spain conceded five times in a World Cup game, in a 6-1 loss to hosts Brazil in 1950. The mauling was also the worst ever start for defending world champions.
"Spain were always going to come at us and we catch them on the counter. My players did it perfectly. It's far better than we ever expected," Dutch coach Louis van Gaal told reporters.
Dutch revenge looked unlikely when Spain, also 2008 and 2012 European champions, went ahead in the Group B clash with a 27th- minute Xabi Alonso penalty after Diego Costa was brought down.
With halftime approaching, David Silva spurned a chance to double Spain's lead with a cheeky chip that was pushed wide - a miss compounded by a spectacular Dutch equaliser seconds later.
Looking for quick balls over the top, captain Van Persie got between defenders Sergio Ramos and Jordi Alba in the 44th minute to meet a searching Daley Blind cross with a powerful diving header that left goalkeeper Iker Casillas rooted to the spot.
A likely standout goal of the tournament, even Van Persie struggled to assume a modest demeanour after the game.
"Best goal of my career," he told reporters with a broad smile.
"It was a brilliant goal, even I have to say that. It was a bit of a gamble but I had spotted Casillas off his line before the cross came in."
Most of Brazil's 12 host cities witnessed anti-World Cup demonstrations ahead of Thursday's opener, but as fans flooded to games and violent protests subsided on Friday a second-half Dutch goal glut ensured the day's headlines belonged to soccer.
Robben put the Netherlands ahead after 53 minutes, latching on to another excellent Blind lobbed pass before turning Gerard Pique and holding off Ramos to fire home.
Del Bosque reacted by swapping Alonso for the more attack-minded Pedro and Brazilian-born striker Costa, booed with every touch by the locals, went off for Fernando Torres.
The match opened up, but all in the Netherlands' favour.
Van Persie rattled the crossbar with a ferocious right-foot volley before Stefan de Vrij, whose tackle on Costa had led to the penalty, stole in at the back post to convert a free kick after Casillas was pressured by Van Persie.
It got worse for Spain as Van Persie added a fourth after taking advantage of a sloppy touch by Casillas to slot home in the 72nd minute, and the excellent Robben sent the disbelieving Dutch fans into raptures with a brilliant fifth eight minutes later.
The rapid forward, who had spurned a glorious chance to give the Netherlands their first world title four years ago after bearing down on Casillas, flew out of his half on to a through ball before toying with the Spanish rearguard and belting home.
"I can't find words to explain five goals," Spain coach Vicente del Bosque said.
"It is now a delicate situation for us which we will and try and overcome in our next game against Chile and then see what happens."
Del Bosque sat disconsolately in his dugout long after his squad had disappeared down the tunnel, perhaps pondering whether to shake-up a team packed with champions. On their way to winning Euro 2008, the 2010 World Cup and Euro 2012, Spain only conceded six goals in 19 games.
While defenders Pique and Ramos were run ragged, midfield maestros Andres Iniesta, Xavi and Alonso were overrun in the second half and Casillas had a night to forget.
For the Netherlands, a post-match lap of honour in front of their dancing orange-clad fans represented the perfect start in Brazil.
Ahead of facing Chile next Wednesday, Del Bosque will be left to take comfort from remembering Spain lost their opening match in 2010, 1-0 to Switzerland, before going on to lift the trophy.

1915 - 2014 |
Porter Ernest E. Porter, age 98, of Columbus, died on March 11, 2014. Ernest was born in Gallipolis, Ohio on December 11, 1915, the son of Beatrice Eulalia (Plymale) and Wyman Elza Porter. Porter had a substantial magazine sales career. He retired from his position in New York City in 1975, then continued working in Indianapolis on The Saturday Evening Post, Holiday Magazine, and The Country Gentleman. Subsequently, in Columbus, he founded Ohio Magazine. For 30 years, Ernest played a key role in advertising sales. He was the Manager of the Midwest Farm Magazine Unit in New York City, and in Chicago, and was responsible for 25 state farm magazines. He was a member of the Agricultural Publishers Association and founded the State Farm Magazine Bureau. He had duties and friends in New York City, Chicago, Cleveland, Louisville, Ithaca, Dallas, and Indianapolis. He was known by advertisers and advertising agencies. As a child, his vacations were spent on his paternal grandfather's subsistent farm near Gallipolis, Ohio. He learned about farm labor/management before electricity and gasoline when all were altered. The power of gasoline replaced horses and mules with tractors, trucks and autos. Throughout his lifetime, he saw great steps with the mechanical and chemical revolution with hybrids in crops and animals. He graduated from West High School in 1934 with shorthand and typing skills, which was a good background for business and military. He was a member of Boy Scout Troop 45 and did civic duties like caring for the injured at the Ohio Penitentiary Fire (1930) and ushering at OSU football games. He was employed by Duplex Printing Company and attended The
Ohio State University
until he was drafted in June of 1941 at Fort Hayes. Porter was a 73 year member of the Westgate Lodge and Scottish Rite. During
, he served in Mineral Wells (Texas), Forth Worth (Texas), Camp Grant (Illinois), Beloit (Wisconsin), Fort Washington (Maryland), Washington (DC), and Newark (New Jersey). He obtained the rank of Army Staff Sergeant, attended Officers Candidate School, and was a Captain when he was discharged at the end of his five year service. His last post was at the Adjutant General's Department, Office of Dependency Benefits in Newark (New Jersey), which had 10,000 employees and over 4 million accounts. While there, Porter sent monthly checks to qualified Veterans and their dependent families. He dealt with Army posts, Army camps, Army stations and banks around the world. Along with his parents, Ernest was preceded in death by wife Jane V. Porter, son Phil E. Porter, sister Louise and her husband Robert R. Kimball and brother Charles W. Porter. He is survived by nieces, Nancy C. Porter, Cathy K. (Ron) Lantz and Mary K. (Stu) Burge; great nephew, Jason R. Lantz; and daughter-in-law, Kathleen Sanderson Porter. On his wife's side of the family, he is survived by nephews, Jim and Michael Sullivan; and niece, Nora Sullivan Blair. Per his request, Ernest will be cremated; a private memorial service will be held at a later date at the convenience of the family. Arrangements by SCHOEDINGER MIDTOWN CHAPEL.

Accused Cumbrian tycoon was just being 'helpful', court told
Last updated at 11:16, Friday, 30 November 2012
A business tycoon accused of attempting to secure a £90m contract by landing a bank governor's son a place at a top university said he was just being "helpful".
Related: Cumbrian businessman warned over deal, trial told
Bill Lowther, 73, of Carlisle, allegedly paid for the son of Vietnam's state bank boss, Le Duc Thuy, to study for an MBA at Durham University.
The packaging magnate stumped up more than £21,000 for tuition and accommodation for Le Duc Minh and chauffeured him to an interview with the course director after setting up the meeting, it is claimed.
It is alleged his efforts were part of a package of bribes aimed at securing a lucrative contract for his banknote printing firm Securency. Lowther, who denies corruption, said he had helped Mr Minh after he was contacted by Securency managing director Miles Curtis in January 2003.
He said: "I believe he said that the governor said he would very much like his son to go to the UK as part of his education.
"He was of the view that I was involved with universities and was it possible for me to help. I took the view that I would try to be helpful."
He told Southwark Crown Court he was aware that Durham University was keen to attract overseas students.
"[I thought] I would be doing two things, helping a young fellow in terms of his education and helping the university in terms of coming up with a possible student," he said.
"I made it absolutely clear to Miles that if he contacts them then this is not a third world university. Durham has got a huge reputation and the young fellow will have to have all the appropriate qualifications that were required as part of him receiving an entry to the university."
Lowther, of St Aidans Road, near the city's Warwick Road, went on to tell the court that he had been asked to act as a referee for Mr Minh on his application form.
He said: "They had asked me to be a referee because they thought it would be better to have a British referee.
" I made it clear to him, Le Duc Minh, that I'm quite happy to provide a reference but I'm not going to make things up."
Prosecutor Richard Jory has told the court that Securency was in financial difficulties and wanted to win over the governor of the State Bank of Vietnam to bag the multi-million pound deal.
"In order to curry favour, the defendant and others based in the UK, Australia and Vietnam devised a plan to secure and finance a place on an MBA course at Durham Business School," he said.
He added Lowther went to great lengths to cover up his role in the alleged corruption. Lowther was also a director of UCB, now known as Innovia, which has an office in Wigton. It had a 50 per cent stake in Securency at the time of the alleged corruption in 2003. He has has pleaded not guilty to a single count of conspiracy to corrupt between January 1 and December 31, 2003. The trial continues.

Stanley Fischer nice background 512.
(photo credit:REUTERS)
In commenting on Stanley Fischer's tenure as governor of the Bank of Israel, Gilad Alper cites selective evidence and blames Fischer for the costs associated with certain policy decisions, yet attributes the benefits of those same policies to some kind of "economic miracle" (see "Stan's not your man," The Jerusalem Post, February 12, 2014).Financial market traders (as well as people living on fixed incomes) tend to prefer high interest rates since they potentially enhance their wealth. But monetary policy has broader consequences and responsible policymakers like Fischer take them all into consideration, not just those that will affect a specific group of people, when making monetary policy decisions.Alper criticizes the Bank of Israel's easy monetary policies for contributing to an expansion of credit, yet conveniently ignores the fact that those same policies helped reduce upward pressure on the value of the shekel relative to the major world currencies (which, by the way, were in a free-fall at the time), thereby contributing to Israel's export boom.The Bank of Israel's policy of accumulating foreign reserves was one of the most important factors that helped defend the Israeli economy from the contagion effects of the global economic and financial meltdown.As made clear at the time, the Bank of Israel was also building its foreign reserves to enable the economy to continue functioning in the event of an attack by one of its neighbors. Effective leaders like Fischer understand that economic policies are not always made on the basis of economic factors alone.Although some Israelis would argue that they live in a major, advanced economy, it is silly to suggest that an emerging economy like Israel should use the same criteria employed in economies 50 to 60 times its size in managing its foreign reserve and exchange rate policies.Although Fischer often spoke about the risks associated with the Bank's policies, including the possibility of fueling a real estate bubble, these risks were swamped by other more immediate economic and national security concerns.Israel's dysfunctional real estate market is primarily the result of bad policies creating the wrong incentives and too many real estate agents trying to "make an easy shekel." Both problems, which are outside the reach of monetary policy, could be addressed by Israeli policymakers if they had the political will to do so.Democratic societies depend on well-functioning institutions to develop and implement policies that ultimately enhance the wellbeing of their citizens. Although they are established and run by individuals, these institutions need to be greater than the sum of their parts to be effective. History is replete with examples when individuals usurped or were granted unchecked power, resulting in putting private interests ahead of public interests.Throughout his career Fischer has contributed to strengthening economic institutions around the world. In addition to steering the Israeli economy through the greatest global economic storm since the Great Depression, as governor of the Bank of Israel, he designed and implemented some of the most important institutional reforms since Israel's own economic and financial crisis in the late 1980s (which, by the way, he also helped resolve), e.g. establishing the country's first monetary policy committee (similar to those in place in Europe and the United States), increasing supervision over the banks and placing limits on loans and mortgages to reduce real estate speculation.He shepherded the Bank of Israel law through the Knesset and also resolved long simmering personnel disputes that he inherited.The US economy (as well as other economies around the world) is just beginning to get "back on its feet" after the most disruptive economic and financial crisis experienced in over 70 years. And, as we have seen just within the past few weeks, footloose capital continues to seek out short-term gains and wreak havoc on individual economies and their currencies.The delicate job of unraveling the monetary stimulus put into the global financial system over the past few years is likely to prove to be a greater challenge than introducing the stimulus in the first place.Janet Yellen's deep appreciation for the intricacies of the US economy and Fischer's unique experience with financial crises not only prepare them for their jobs, but make them the best candidates to manage the next chapter in the recovery from The Great Recession. We should be grateful for their willingness to serve. Nominating them to the US Federal Reserve will probably prove to be the most important decisions of President Barack Obama's second term.The author was a Research Associate at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, a public policy research center in Washington, DC. He also served as an economist in the Research Department of the Bank of Israel from 1986 to 1988.

Method Man & Redman - Mrs. International
Artist: Method Man & Redman
Producer: Buckwild
Album: Blackout 2
Avg Rating: 3.7 ( 34 votes )
As far as musical tastes are concerned, you could hardly ask for a more diverse bunch than DJBooth.net regulars—what's one-star trash to one reviewer is another's five-star treasure, and vice versa. With that said, the tremendous, nearly unanimously positive ratings garnered by Blackout 2 lead single A Yo! and leaked cut City Lights make one thing crystal clear: the Booth needs more Method Man & Redman, stat! In contrast to the joint-sparking, street-friendly vibe of both the aforementioned tracks, this latest cut oozes mellow, old-school flavor as the duo spit globetrotting game to a certain Mrs. International. Despite the change in tone, the time-tested lyrical skills Meth and Red once again bring to the table, as well as Buckwild's lushly-sampled instrumental, will likely add up to another Booth-charting hit. Blackout 2, the duo's long-awaited sophomore album, is set to hit stores May 19th, and fans should watch out for the Mrs. International music video, filmed two weeks ago, to premiere in the near future.

I hope they don't get a fat head over this change in government. Putting more
Republicans in office was the only way the american people have to block the
damage done by our other two heads of government, Obama and the Democrats.
Critical damage to this country has been done and continues to be done by Obama and he had to be stopped. This doesn't mean the american people are approving Republican rule, we just had to stop Obama and the democrats. The people still want their country and lives back and that's the only reason there may be more republicans in Washington. We are tired of roll over representation, we want stand up and fight representation. We don't want compromise, we want spine and 'no' back on the hill. We want reality, sanity, and accountability.

Here's my view on this. High expectations?. Republican RINO lifer leaders,
counting their chickens before they hatch, think they are more confident of
their chances of winning control of the House and possibly even the Senate, and
have begun plotting, a 2011 agenda topped by a push for more than $100 billion
in spending cuts, tax reductions and attempts to undo key parts of President
Barack Obama's health care and financial regulation laws. Talk is cheap, all
they are interested in is money, greed, corruption, above the law, (ignore us
common people unless they need your votes), career politician's who will take
money from any special interest and say or do anything to keep his hold on
power. It's secret government by the insiders, for the insiders only today.
That's for BIG BUSINESS "ONLY" and their deep pocket's. That's why nothing gets
done in the Party of "NO" for us. Once again it's time for the politicians to
mount their "stumps" and begin pontificating their political virtues and make
promises, which for the most part, will never be kept.

How do Republicans plan on reducing the national deficit if they implement a
minor $100 billion spending decrease but reduce federal income by several
trillion in tax cuts? How is this any different from what is going on now?
"Critical damage" is a matter of opinion. Frankly, the economic collapse has done critical damage to the country, not Obama. So far, I think the best you can say is that Obama has been unable to reverse it. I also find it disturbing that you want no compromise when conservatives have been criticizing the Democrats for lack of the same. Your views are not shared by all Americans. Neither are mine. Compromise helps us get things done.

So in 2 years, Obama has done more damage to the country than the 8 of Bush (Dubya)? I doubt it. 2 years isn't usually long enough to affect the economy either way. And by economists measurements, the Great Recession is over, and has been since late 2009, and it began due to BUSH's policies! How soon some forget! Remember the Great Depression took over a decade to recover from. This isn't going to happen overnight.

Jersey Shore's Snooki Is Not Above the Law
Some Italian-Americans from New Jersey end up handing down the law. E.g., Justices Antonin Scalia and Samuel Alito. And some Italian-Americans from New Jersey end up getting in trouble with the law. E.g., Snooki, the pint-sized, gallon-breasted breakout star of MTV's popular Jersey Shore reality TV show. According to TMZ, Snooki — a.k.a. Nicole Polizzi […]

Jersey Shore's Snooki Charged in Connection with Teen's Death
Now here's something from RadarOnline that I think we can believe: Jersey Shore star Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi was criminally charged for selling booze to minors at a party at her house — a party that ended with the tragic drunk driving death of one of her classmates, RadarOnline.com has uncovered in a blockbuster exclusive. Snooki […]

Rotterdam, Nethe...
I made this dress for a friend's wedding. Since it is the first time I make a dress it came out pretty OK. As most of the girls here, I changed the skirt as well to be without a bubble (looks much nicer, especially with cotton). Also, the instruction for petersham ribbon seemed somewhat complicated so I simply attached the skirt to the edge of the bodice.
I finished the skirt hem with bias tape in matching color to the sash.

Early Review: Black Widow (Elemental Assassin #12) by Jennifer Estep
Where BLACK WIDOW excels is going far beyond my expectations of a Elemental Assassin book. The series has felt repetitive at times though I keep coming back for me as I adore Gin and every other character that crosses paths with her good guy or bad. What BLACK WIDOW has done is take a series I've become comfortable with in regards to how the plot is going to go and flip it on its head. There is a game changer at the end of this book that I adore and can't wait to see in the next book. Future expectations aside this book is excellent in its forward momentum towards that game changer moment.
Review: Baba Ali and the Clockwork Djinn by Danielle Ackley-McPhail and Day Al-Mohamed
In this retelling of 'Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves,' Danielle Ackley-McPhail and Day Al-Mohamed have mixed a little machinery with magic while delving into the Arabian culture, and bringing us a protagonist whose heroism is in his dedication – dedication to his craft, his family, and his desire to to what's right. BABA ALI AND THE CLOCKWORK DJINN is a breath of fresh desert wind, and if the book suffers from some plotting and pacing missteps, it's still a charming oasis for fantasy lovers looking to enjoy something a little less Western.
Review: Demon's Fury, Demon's Vow, Inner Demon (The Asylum Tales #3.3) by Jocelynn Drake
DEMON'S FURY, DEMON'S VOW, and INNER DEMON were published as part 1,2, and 3 which was a clever idea although I got all three together so I didn't get to experience the effect and anticipation of waiting for what happens next in the final book of The Asylum Tales. DEMON'S FURY brought us back to Gage and his tattoo parlour where many unique
Review: Otherworld Nights (Otherworld Stories, #3) by Kelley Armstrong
OTHERWORLD NIGHTS was a nice compilation of short stories of Women of the Otherworld, that were part of various other anthologies over the years with a new Savannah story at the end. Going back and re-reading these stories felt very comforting and familiar since I've been reading Kelley Armstrong's stories for so long.
Review: 'Til Dragons Do Us Part (Never Deal with Dragons #3) by Lorenda Christensen
I was attracted to the premise of 'TIL DRAGONS DO US PART with a thief trying to rob a dragon's house during a dragon wedding. Basically I was excited to see some dragon or dragon shifter action as they I have not been reading enough books with dragons in them lately. Savannah being a dragonmorph thief let to some really unique ways she used her abilities

Review: Penumbra (Spook Squad #3) by Keri Arthur
PENUMBRA continues the quick pacing and action of the previous two books in this series. I liked figuring out just exactly what Sam is and how she fits into the vast network of government clones running amok around the world. I loved discovering Sam's powers along with her and how she learns about them was fascinating.
Review: The Curse Defiers (The Curse Keepers #3) by Denise Grover Swank
The best way to describe my feelings towards this series in general is love-hate. It felt even moreso while reading the third book, THE CURSE DEFIERS. It's not a bad book, not even a bad series, it's just becoming more and more obvious that it's not for me.
Early Review: Blue Lily, Lily Blue (The Raven Cycle #3) by Maggie Stiefvater
Reminiscent of the many threads introduced in THE RAVEN BOYS, BLUE LILY, LILY BLUE once again widens the lens of this world to follow oh so many stories at once. With more of a focus on action than relationships, BLUE LILY covers significant ground, and yet, feels paradoxically shorter than its predecessors.

Yikes. Hope he recovers quickly and fully.2. Shredder Posted: February 12, 2014 at 07:51 PM (#4655917)
Prayers for him. My dad used to do business with Fregosi right after the Angels fired him. My dad was a food buyer for Sheraton and Fregosi owned a food brokerage. I had lunch with him once when I was a kid and spent a fair amount of games (including game four in 1986) in Fregosi's season seats at the Big A. Very nice man. Best wishes.3.

Fondly remembered for his work with the '93 Phillies, one of the weirdest rosters ever. They were extremely patient at the plate.4. RollingWave Posted: February 12, 2014 at 08:58 PM (#4655940)
Fergosi is only 71? he looked that looked when he coached the Phillies back in the early 90s ...5. Jose Is The Most Absurd Thing on the Site Posted: February 12, 2014 at 09:14 PM (#4655949)
Geez that sucks. Hope he is OK. I don't know much about the Caymans but I would want a loved one as close to home after something so serious as possible. Best to Fregosi.6. Wahoo Sam Posted: February 12, 2014 at 10:39 PM (#4655979)
An excellent shortstop, one of the best in the game in the 1960s, and a near-HOF type of career. I hope he recovers quickly.7. Spivey Posted: February 12, 2014 at 10:44 PM (#4655981)
I also hope he recovers quickly. He was a guy that when I was a teenager just thought of as a manager and didn't realize he had a legit HOF peak.8. Pasta-diving Jeter (jmac66) Posted: February 12, 2014 at 10:49 PM (#4655986)
An excellent shortstop, one of the best in the game in the 1960s, and a near-HOF type of career. I hope he recovers quickly.
for me, Fregosi, Albie Pierson , and Daddy Wags WERE the expansion Angels*--even though BRef tells me that Fregosi wasn't a regular until their 3rd year
*and Bobby Knoop
Fondly remembered for his work with the '93 Phillies, one of the weirdest rosters ever. They were extremely patient at the plate.
Everyone now thinks/assumes it was a team hepped up on 'roids, but really the key to their offense was their walks--almost every guy 1-8 and most of the bench players drew decent amounts of walks (or in some cases loads and loads of walks). The same is basically true of the 2007-2009 peak Phillies team.
Naturally, Amaro, Jr. doesn't see that this is the case, and has done his level best to drum patience right out of the entire organization.
These ex-managers need to stop going on baseball-themed cruises. First Earl Weaver and now this.11. Morty Causa Posted: February 13, 2014 at 01:03 AM (#4656060)
Fregosi was really a good player. It's not an exaggeration to claim he was on track for a HOF career when he more or less fell off a cliff in his late '20s. What happened? Injuries? A lifestyle conducive to becoming overweight and out of shape. Seems like he would have benefited from the training culture that developed in the '80s and continuing.12. Pasta-diving Jeter (jmac66) Posted: February 13, 2014 at 02:39 AM (#4656073)
Fregosi was really a good player. It's not an exaggeration to claim he was on track for a HOF career when he more or less fell off a cliff in his late '20s. What happened? Injuries?
all sources state that he had a "tumor in the foot". There are only 2 possibilities that I can think of (and, yes, I am a doctor and don't play one on TV) --one type is what was used to be called a "Giant cell tumor" of the tendon sheath and the other is a neuroma--both of which are completely benign and treatable. But both involve surgery and it's possible that the Angels thought it would make him damaged goods.
Thank you for the info.14. Knock on any Iorg Posted: February 13, 2014 at 07:36 AM (#4656090)
Concur with #5 that I would seek every avenue to get him to competent medical care stateside. Maybe there are excellent doctors in the Caymans but Cleveland Clinic in Miami is reputed to be near the top of the list generally speaking.15. Never Give an Inge (Dave) Posted: February 13, 2014 at 06:21 PM (#4656581)
Get well soon.16. Moeball Posted: February 13, 2014 at 06:35 PM (#4656589)
I always think of Fregosi as the guy the Mets traded Nolan Ryan for. Growing up I didn't realize how good Fregosi had been before the trade, I just knew how lopsided the trade had been in hindsight. But yeah, he had a legit peak. More career WAR than Nomar or Miguel Tejada.
An excellent shortstop, one of the best in the game in the 1960s, and a near-HOF type of career. I hope he recovers quickly.
The best shortstop in the major leagues from 1961-70:
1)by a good-sized margin (almost 10 WAR ahead of #2 Maury Wills)
2)and in spite of giving everyone else a 2 year head start since Fregosi didn't start playing regularly until 1963.
Guys like Groat, Wills and Versalles won the MVPs and Aparacio probably had the most fans during that time, but Fregosi was better than any of them.
*and Bobby Knoop
Knoop and Fregosi made a great DP combination that Baseball Digest declared was the American League's answer to Mazeroski and Alley in the mid-'60s.
Maz and Knoop made such a big impact on me as a young baseball fan that now I sponsor their B-Ref pages. I would have nabbed Fregosi's, too, but someone beat me to it!
Mike DiGiovanna of the LA Times is reporting that Fregosi has died.18. AndrewJ Posted: February 13, 2014 at 08:01 PM (#4656618)
He began his managerial career with two winning seasons (with the Angels) and ended it with two winning seasons (with Toronto) and in the intervening 11 seasons had just one winning year -- the 1993 Phillies.19. 'Spos stares out the window, waits for spring Posted: February 13, 2014 at 08:09 PM (#4656620)
He was always very chatty as an advance scout. Great guy to watch a game with.20. BDC Posted: February 13, 2014 at 08:25 PM (#4656626)
Yes, this is a shame. A fine figure in baseball, and a notable player of my youth.21. AndrewJ Posted: February 13, 2014 at 08:31 PM (#4656634)
UPDATE: Tracy Ringolsby just Tweeted this a couple of minutes ago:22. steagles Posted: February 13, 2014 at 08:38 PM (#4656636)
Jim Fregosi is still in a Miami hospital. He suffered multiple strokes. He has not died.
fregosi has apparently been taken off life-support. either that means he's well enough to not need it, or on the verge of certain death. either way, hooray for journalistic integrity.23. Hang down your head, Tom Foley Posted: February 13, 2014 at 08:40 PM (#4656637)
His condition was upgraded on Wikipedia.24. DJS and the Infinite Sadness Posted: February 13, 2014 at 08:42 PM (#4656639)
Yeah, DiGiovanna jumped the gun. Sorry guys! He's usually a decent news source.25. AndrewJ Posted: February 13, 2014 at 09:06 PM (#4656651)
Fregosi guided the Phillies to a 13-game winning streak in July-August of 1991. One of the weakest teams ever to win 13 straight.26. Howie Menckel Posted: February 13, 2014 at 09:27 PM (#4656659)

Former Manager Jim Fregosi dies at 71. Had suffered a massive stroke while on a cruise is last 36 hours.

Former manager Jim Fregosi has been taken off support, but has not died. Info I got was pre mature and I apologize. He hangs on but very bad
Fregosi guided the Phillies to a 13-game winning streak in July-August of 1991. One of the weakest teams ever to win 13 straight.Unless I missed somebody, they're one of four teams with a losing record for the season to have a 13-game winning streak.
1. 1999 Padres 74-88 (.457)- 14-game streak
2. 1991 Phillies 78-84 (.481)
2. 1999 Orioles 78-84 (.481)
4. 1942 Indians 75-79 (.487)
Fregosi guided the Phillies to a 13-game winning streak in July-August of 1991. One of the weakest teams ever to win 13 straight.
The 2004 Rays (70-91, one game hurricaned out) won 12 straight and 30 of 40. They preceded that stretch by losing 12 of 13 and succeeded it by losing 8 of 10.
Edit: The most noteworthy thing about that 40 game stretch was that Rey Sanchez hit 2 of his 15 career home runs in it. A walk-off inside the parker against the Rockies in extra innings (the fielder turned a single into the home run by diving for the ball and missing) and one against Toronto that actually went over the fence.
The 2004 Rays (70-91, one game hurricaned out) won 12 straight and 30 of 40.30. Pasta-diving Jeter (jmac66) Posted: February 13, 2014 at 10:23 PM (#4656680)
Just checked them out on BB-Ref. The Rays began that stretch 13 games out of first. After that 30-10 run they were... 10 games out.
As everyone knows, the longest winning streak in MLB history is 26 by the 1916 Giants. And they also had a 17 game streak earlier that season. But they finished 86-66, 4 games out. Which means that outside those 2 streaks, they were 43-6631. Ron J2 Posted: February 14, 2014 at 01:50 PM (#4656933)
#11 Not many were as good as he was in his early years. I have the center of his prime at age 24 (only ARod and Vaughan were younger at the center of their prime). WAR sees him as a B defender and an OPS+ of 122 (what he put up in his 5 best seasons) is obviously pretty good for a SS. So yeah, not hyperbole to say he was on a HOF track.
I've got him as the #15 prime, in the same general range as Joe Cronin, George Davis, Like Appling and Barry Larkin. Pretty nice company.

Premier x Nike SB Dunk High "Northern Lights" – Release Reminder by Patrick Johnson 1 Comments
Color: Obsidian/White-French Blue
Style: 130690-411
Release Date: February, 1997
The Obsidian colorway of the Air Jordan XII was released in February of 1997. It stands as the only original Air Jordan XII colorway that Michael Jordan has never worn in an NBA game. The Obsidian colorway was used once more when the Air Jordan XII released in 2003, but only a low-top version was released. Being that the mid version was never again released, the Obsidian XII stands as one of the few original Air Jordans that only exist in its original form, with current market value floating above $200.

Money leader and world No. 2 Jiyai Shin is also in the field. Shin is the only three-time winner on tour this year and leads the money list by more than $250,000 over Ai Miyazato. Ochoa is the only other two-time winner this year, but has not won since April. She is currently 11th on the money list. Last year, In-Kyung Kim fired rounds of 67-69-69-73 to win this event for her first LPGA Tour victory. She finished the tournament at 10-under-par 278 for a three-stroke win over Angela Stanford. Kim won for the second time this year at the LPGA State Farm Classic. In 2005, Nicole Perrot of Chile birdied two holes late on her back nine in the final round to overtake Hee-Won Han and win this event. She shot an even-par 71 and finished at 14-under-par 270 to win by a stroke at The Ridge Golf Course. Perrot, who led by three heading into the final round, tied the 54- hole record of 199 set by Leta Lindley in 2004. In 2004, Christina Kim broke into the winner's circle, as she clipped Karrie Webb by one shot. Her winning total of 266 smashed the tournament record of 273 set back in 1996 by Kelly Robbins and Val Skinner. Anna Acker-Macosko made her own history on the final day, as she carded an 11-under-par round of 60 to finish tied for fifth. Acker-Macosko birdied her first two holes, then tallied three birdies in her final four holes on the front nine for a 31. She birdied her first two on the back side, then four more in a row from the 13th to get to 11-under par for the round. At the 17th, Acker-Macosko left her 25-foot birdie putt short. She had a 30-foot putt at the last to become the second player in LPGA Tour history to shoot the magical 59, but the putt was too far right and instead she tapped in for a par and 60. When Helen Alfredsson won this event in 2003, it was her first victory since the 1998 Welch's/Circle K Championship. When Cristie Kerr won this event in 2002, she became a first-time winner on the LPGA Tour and the first at this event, as she edged out Hee-Won Han by one shot. The first seven years of the event were held at Twelve Bridges Golf Club, while the 2003 tournament moved to Lincoln Hills Club. The 2004 and 2005 events were held at The Ridge Golf Club. In 2006, the tournament moved to Blackhawk Country Club in Danville. Juli Inkster, the only two-time winner and back-to-back champion of this event, finished tied for 23rd last year. Inkster has made the cut in 12 of 13 appearances with nine top-15 results and $440,308 in earnings. When Inkster won in 2000, she posted the largest margin of victory of five over Brandie Burton. There have been three playoffs in event history, with the first two coming in the first two years of the event's existence. Kerr and Se Ri Pak are the only wire-to-wire champions of this event - Kerr in 2002 and Pak in 2001. Natalie Gulbis became the youngest player to Monday qualify for an LPGA tournament at this event back in 1997 at the age of 14. Gulbis missed the cut that year with rounds of 81-84. Gulbis' mark stood for five years, until Michelle Wie at the age of 12 qualified for the 2002 Takefuji Classic. The LPGA Tour travels to Alabama next week for the Navistar LPGA Classic, where Ochoa captured the title in 2008. 09/22 17:12:03 ET As of September 22, 2009, at 05:12 PM ET

I was wondering whether any readers out there knew what happened to Mooyah Burgers, Fries & Shakes at 300 W. Bay Area Blvd.
Representatives of the company didn't return phone calls today, so I'm at a loss.
GALVESTON — A recent Texas A&M University study found that out-of-county visitors to the park spent nearly $4 million in Galveston County last year. That money helped create nearly 58 full- and part-time jobs in the county, according to the study.
TEXAS CITY — A little before 11 a.m. at Harvest Bible Church in Texas City, David Henson and the other volunteers were giving thanks and getting ready to serve food to more than 100 homeless and low-income people at Mission Texas City's yearly Thanksgiving feast.
Three Galveston County schools remained in the hunt for a state championship after the second round of the playoffs this past week. Some notable notes from the area round contests included:
GARLAND — After their run all the way to Saturday's Class 6A volleyball state final match, two Clear Falls Knights were named to the 6A all-state tournament team.
Last Wednesday, our little band of Kiwanians did something we've done for several years.
The Republican Party did very well in the recent elections.
More and more people across Galveston County are putting up their Christmas decorations well before the Thanksgiving turkey is even in the oven.
On a Thursday in the middle of August, 1997, my university honored its employees.
NORMAN, Okla. (AP) — Allegations by three girls at an Oklahoma high school who say they were raped by the same male student have led to a police investigation and protests by students who say school officials have mishandled the case and subsequent bullying.
PASADENA, Texas (AP) — Authorities say three people have died in a Houston-area house fire.

Method of triple co-extruding bakeable products
Image Number 6 for
United States Patent #4748031
An extruder provides three materials, one co-extruded about the other. A first material is completely enrobed by a second material, which in turn is completely enrobed by a third material. The first and third materials are preferably cookie doughs having differing compositions, the first material forming the core and having a moist and chewy texture upon baking. The third material is preferably a cookie dough having a relatively crispy texture upon baking. The second material serves as a moisture barrier and to prevent bleeding between the first and the third materials. The second material may be composed of, for example, an oil-based fluidic material or a gel.
