Toronto Maple Leafs' Mike Zigomanis Talks Vegan
Written by Vegetarian Star on October 10th, 2011 in Athletes-Games-Sports, Celebrity Tweets, Food & Drink.
For some people, going vegetarian or vegan takes education, watching a few gory slaughter videos here and there or getting to personally know a farm animal. For others, it's a matter of just asking, "Why not?"
Toronto Maple Leafs' Mike Zigomanis was approached by a golfing buddy on the subject. The friend eventually scored a hole-in-one by converting Zigomanis to a full-time vegan.
"I wasn't really eating any meat or seafood and he asked why I wouldn't just stop all together," Zigomanis said in an interview with Cardiac Cane. "It made sense, so I eventually stopped."
More from the interview below:
KP: Do any coaches worried about your nutrition?
MZ: I'm sure if I don't have a couple good games, they may question it. I did a good job of keeping it a secret for four years, but I don't mind now, so it's out.
KP: Did your family have a hard time with your diet change?
MZ: Not really, my mom is vegan now. Vegetarian lifestyle is in my immediate family, so it's good.
KP: So who gave you the hardest time about being vegan?
MZ: The guys in the room.
KP: Do they still give you a hard time?
MZ: Yeah, I just slap'em around a little. (laughs)
KP: Do you like to cook and prepare your meals?
MZ: Yeah, I love to cook.
According to his Twitter account, Zigomanis is currently looking for ways to test his cooking skills on a vegan pumpkin pie.

UPDATE: Obama Budget Includes $75 Billion To Fund 'Preschool For All' Initiative
"UPDATE: Obama Budget Includes $75 Billion To Fund 'Preschool For All' Initiative"
President Obama proposed a vast expansion to early childhood education programs during his State of the Union address in February, saying he wanted to work "with states to make high-quality preschool available to every child in America." The budget plan he released today follows up on that promise, allocating $75 billion in new funding over the next decade to partner with states and help expand access to low- and middle-income children who aren't currently enrolled in preschool programs.
Obama's plan would partner with states to help "provide all low- and moderate-income four-year-old children with high-quality preschool, while also incentivizing States to expand these programs to reach additional children from middle-class families and establish full-day kindergarten policies." Overall, the budget spends $90 billion on the Preschool for All initiative and an expansion in home visiting for children. The programs are financed through a $0.94 increase in cigarette and tobacco taxes.
The U.S. ranks among the worst of industrialized countries when it comes to funding early childhood education, and it especially fails to help low-income children. "Nationwide 60 percent of all 3- and 4-year-olds are enrolled in preschool, compared to less than 50 percent of children below the poverty line," according to the Center for American Progress' Juliana Herman and Melissa Lazarin, meaning there are more than a million low-income children not receiving any preschool education across the country. And while many states have expanded programs, they still aren't reaching enough children, as this map from Herman, Lazarin, and Sasha Post shows:
Addressing those gaps, as Obama's preschool expansion seeks to do, will have benefits for both children and the nation's economy. At-risk children who receive early childhood education are less likely to drop out of school, become teen parents, and commit violent crimes; they are more likely to attend college. A study of Chicago's universal program found that it generates $11 in economic benefits for each dollar originally spent; studies of other programs have generated $7 in long-term savings for each dollar spent. And investing in children early is proven to increase social and economic mobility and human capital while reducing economic costs in the future.
States have led the effort to expand preschool programs, and they would continue to do so under Obama's proposal. But, as Herman and Lazarin explain, federal funding "could help jumpstart preschool programs in states without adequate preschools and could also help states with programs reach the lowest-income children. This would free up state dollars to expand access for higher-income children and improve program quality."

When EXPLAIN can be misleading
One think I can see with people using EXPLAIN is trusting it too much, ie assuming if number of rows is reported by EXPLAIN is large query must be inefficient. It may not be the case. The question is not only about stats which may be wrong and which is why you may want to […]
Why Index could refuse to work ?
Have you ever seen index which refused to be used even if there is every reason for it to work (from the glance view):
mysql> explain select * from article where article_id=10;

| 1 | SIMPLE | article | ALL | PRIMARY | NULL | NULL | NULL | 93490 | Using where |
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
Why on the earth index would not be used you would think, even if MySQL is mentioning it in "possible keys" ? Should you try to force it ?

One nice feature added for EXPLAIN statement in MySQL 4.1 is EXTENDED keyword which provides you with some helpful additional information on query optimization.

text: Chriss W. Street Share This: Print Latest News Hydrogen Fuel Cell and Battery-Powered Vehicles Start Competing At the Los Angeles Auto Show and San Francisco Show next month, there will be lots of focus on the commercial roll-out of hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles. Las May, California joined Oregon and six east coast states, which together represent about a quarter of all U.S. miles driven, to commit to an infrastructure roll out to support 3.3 million hybrids and fuel-cell vehicles on their roads by 2025. To demonstrate they are serious, California just awarded a $50 million grant that will more than quadruple the number of "hydrogen highway" fueling station to 37. Oct 7, 2014 4:57 AM PT Hewlett-Packard Plans Break-up from Strength When Whitman announced a company-wide restructuring plan in May 2012 she said it would run through the end of 2014. But the analyst community had little faith that a Silicon Valley behemoth with $127 billion in revenue from wilting technology would make the breadth of gut-wrenching financial and human changes necessary to revive the company. Oct 6, 2014 6:58 AM PT Bill Gross offers PIMCO Staff a Farewell Letter from Hell Bloomberg View columnist Barry Ritholtz published what is purported to be PIMCO founder Bill Gross's letter to the staff as he jumped ship on the morning of September 26 to avoid being terminated for his supposed arrogant and demeaning treatment of staff. Although the letter was reported unsent on Gross's computer, the hellishly arrogant and demeaning comments Gross makes would seem, if real, to justify his firing. Oct 6, 2014 6:43 AM PT Covered California Admits to 'Narrow Networks' of Doctors and Hospitals The California State Insurance Department and Department of Managed Health Care (DMHC) both agreed on October 3 to approve a 4.2% average increase for individual care premiums under Covered California, the state's version of Obamacare. Yet for the first time, regulators admitted the reason rates did not skyrocket is their socialized health plans may be "narrow networks" that limit access to doctors and hospitals. Oct 5, 2014 6:53 AM PT Bankruptcy Judge Hammers Unions by Allowing Stockton Pension Cut In what will be a devastating blow to California public employee unions, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Klein ruled in the Chapter 9 municipal bankruptcy of the City of Stockton that pensions managed by the California Public Employee Retirement System, known as CalPERS, can be cut in bankruptcy.

The ruling clears the last regulatory hurdle for Facebook to consolidate WhatsApp and close the acquisition.

Despite scare tactics by the Left that a "peak oil" event took place in the 1990s and global production was in terminal decline, the U.S. in the last three years has experienced the fastest growth in oil and gas production in the history of the planet. Oct 2, 2014 11:18 AM PT $50 Billion Porkapolooza on Last Day of Federal Budget Year With September 30th as the end of the U.S. government's budget year, bureaucrats facing use-it-or-lose-it rules swept up over $50 billion in leftover cash and went on the biggest one-day Porkapolooza shopping spree of the year. Oct 2, 2014 10:48 AM PT PIMCO Hemorrhaging $198 Million an Hour in Redemptions PIMCO has acknowledged that $23.5 billion of investors' cash was withdrawn last month. It is my estimate that at least $19 billion or more of the liquidations followed legendary Pacific Asset Management (PIMCO) bond manager Bill Gross out the door after he left the firm on September 26 to avoid being terminated.Despite having almost $2 trillion of investor cash under management according to the firm's website, PIMCO appears to be bleeding-out at the rate of $198 million an hour over a four-day period. Oct 2, 2014 10:26 AM PT Will Start-up 'Ello' Make Facebook take a Faceplant? Facebook has kept ahead of its customers jumping ship by buying 40 companies, including its $19 billion acquisition of WhatsApp that worked out to $40 per WhatsApp user. But Ello could be the right competitive model at a time when many people would like to see Facebook take a "Faceplant." Sep 29, 2014 5:59 AM PT The $5.6 Billion Price of Bill Gross Getting Dumped On September 26, PIMCO's Bill Gross resigned from the firm he built into a $2 trillion world class manager, in order to avoid what the Wall Street Journal described as his impending termination for the abusive treatment of employees. The action rattled markets around the world as the stock value of PIMCO's parent, Allianz Insurance, tanked by a stunning $4.9 billion. But when mutual fund giant Janus Capital Group announced Gross was taking over their tiny $13 million Janus Global Unconstrained Bond Fund, Janus' stock went up by $628 million. Sep 29, 2014 5:41 AM PT California May Face Similar Utility Crisis that Caused Gray Davis Recall California ranks third in the U.S., behind Hawaii and New Jersey, with 1.1% of statewide electrical power production being generated by customer-sited solar panels. However, a new federally-funded report warns that California could be headed for another electric utility crisis, like the one in 2003 that caused Governor Gray Davis to be recalled. Sep 28, 2014 6:46 AM PT Does Drought Pricing for Water Violate California Law? The California Legislature knows that the State Water Board's unprecedented July 15 decision allowing local law enforcement and water agencies to impose a maximum $500-a-day fines on water wasters is difficult to enforce and is creating a rising backlash against the politicians. Economists from across the political spectrum recommend adding a simple, administrative, punitive surcharge onto water bills. Yet it appears higher rates for water usage are effectively a tax on usage, violating the 1996 voter-approved Proposition 218, requiring voter approval for all tax increases. Sep 27, 2014 7:36 AM PT Water Districts and Voluntary Conservation Managing the Drought The CAL WatchDog blog is running a series on the trends in California water use and pricing during the current severe drought.

text: Senate Democrats' Bill Puts Foot in the Door for Gun Confiscation Print article Send a Tip by AWR Hawkins 30 Jul 2014 post a comment On July 29 Senators Tim Kaine (D-VA), Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), and Chris Murphy (D-CT) introduced legislation encouraging states to "[seize] firearms when adjudicating or responding to domestic violence situations." Called the Domestic Violence Gun Homicide Prevention Act of 2014, the bill works by "[granting] incentives to states that match or exceed current federal domestic violence gun prohibitions." According to the Roanoke Free Press, Kaine described the legislation as "commonsense." He said "domestic violence fatalities are far too common in Virginia" and the Domestic Violence Gun Homicide Prevention Act of 2014 will "provide critical protection to abuse victims." Blumenthal said the legislation is important because it "provides the resources necessary to protect survivors of domestic abuse and remove guns from dangerous situations where lives are literally on the line." Other co-sponsors of the legislation include Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), Carl Levin (D-MI), Dick Durbin (D-IL), and Elizabeth Warren (D-MA). Follow AWR Hawkins on Twitter @AWRHawkins.

Healthcare Reform Unstoppable, Regardless of Court's PPACA Decision
"Regardless of what the court decides, healthcare in this country is already changing and must keep evolving, because it's broken," Chris Van Gorder, president/CEO of San Diego-based Scripps Health said in a media statement this week. "This crisis presents a challenge and an incredible opportunity for physicians and hospitals to fundamentally reshape the future of healthcare."
Depending upon the forecaster, healthcare spending growth is projected to increase between 4% and 6% or higher in the next year and beyond, which well above the 2.3% rate of inflation as measured by GDP. Those rising healthcare costs will be reflected in the higher insurance premiums, deductibles, and co-pays for millions of Americans, along with the burden employers face carrying increasingly expensive coverage. That's money taken out of the economy for discretionary spending.
It is no coincidence that wages are stagnant but healthcare costs are not. Today's decision by nine justices won't affect that at all. It seems the biggest effect the PPACA legal battle has had is not with how the high court will rule, but with the months of uncertainty that has left many healthcare providers to wait for the dust to clear.
Patricia Webb, senior vice president and CHRO at Catholic Health Initiatives, told HealthLeaders Media back in April that the Denver-based health system could not afford to wait on the high court's ruling. "At the rate healthcare costs are growing we had to modify how we take care of patients and focus more on population health and preventive care that is going to happen and that is what needs to happen from our perspective," Webb said.

Machine-to-Machine (M2M) operation, or any smart device in general, is characterized by allowing any device that has a network connection to be accessible on the Internet.
With the increases in wireless capability and coverage (both cellular, wireless LAN and even nearfield communication (NFC) based) and the rapid reduction of both hardware and connection costs, the number of machines that can be connected is increasing significantly. These machines make up a range of devices, from smart thermostats that are accessible by the home owner from any device with a web browser, to smart gas meters that automatically report the gas usage to the utility company, to consumer devices such as smart picture frames that automatically stream pictures stored from a web site to the frame.

Prior to the financial crisis, Olstein, who founded Olstein Capital Management in 1995, had an impressive track record of profiting on stocks he bought during a time of turmoil. He purchased oil-related stocks at the height of the Asian crisis and bought property-and-casualty insurance companies after Sept. 11, 2001. Bank stocks seemed no different -- until Lehman Brothers. The Olstein All Cap Value Fund (OFALX) fell 43.8% in 2008. "I've been in the industry 44 years and have never, ever gotten clocked like this," Olstein recalls.
Financial stocks have been nothing short of career killers for some value managers. Many grossly underestimated the breadth and depth of their problems. But the sector has rallied this year, up 22%, and many managers are starting to take a closer look. Barron's talked with several widely respected value managers to see what they're finding.
ONE OF THEM, Wally Weitz, isn't finding much. "In a world where the Fed is printing money and you can get mortgages for 4%, it seems like their relative bargaining power will be depressed for a while, leading to a lower return on equity," says Weitz, who co-manages the Weitz Partners Value fund (WPVLX). Though he thinks the worst is over, he continues to mainly avoid the sector. One exception has been top holding Wells Fargo WFC -0.4066543438077634% Wells Fargo & Co. U.S.: NYSE USD53.88 -0.22 -0.4066543438077634% /Date(1416952837012-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 13423495 AFTER HOURS USD53.88 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 966923 P/E Ratio 12.95347998557519 Market Cap 280650451752.283 Dividend Yield 2.5983667409057163% Rev. per Employee 334870 More quote details and news » (WFC), which Weitz held through much of the financial crisis, sold in 2009 then bought again last year. "Wells has been a comfortable place to hide for people who feel they want to, or have to, own banks," says Weitz. But at today's $35 per share, he says, "it's not exciting anymore."
Oakmark fund (OAKMX) co-manager Bill Nygren, however, sees a lot of opportunity in some of the big financial names. The fund's top holdings include Capital One COF 0.682095006090134% Capital One Financial Corp. U.S.: NYSE USD82.66 0.56 0.682095006090134% /Date(1416953070434-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 2315005 AFTER HOURS USD82.66 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 78655 P/E Ratio 11.140161725067385 Market Cap 45645218933.1497 Dividend Yield 1.4517299782240503% Rev. per Employee 561322 More quote details and news » (COF), JPMorgan Chase JPM -1.0826771653543308% JPMorgan Chase & Co.

Nygren has been increasing his allotment to financial stocks over the past year and counts them as the most interesting sector in the market now. "You don't have to believe they're wonderful businesses to believe they're wonderful investments," says Nygren.
That said, Nygren has raised the bar on how he values bank stocks and says he does think that fundamentals have improved. "The lending standards before [the crisis] versus now are like night and day," he says. "And the biggest asset they're lending against, the nation's housing stock, is increasing in value."
Nygren agrees that banks don't warrant the kinds of valuations they were getting before the crisis -- in many cases, two times book value. But he thinks they're now a bargain at 50% to 75% of book value. "The bears are saying banks are getting overregulated and will become like utilities," says Nygren. "But look where banks are today versus utilities. If banks look like utilities on those metrics, they would be a fantastic investment."
The Great Value Debate
These noted value funds have different approaches to the still-confounding financial sector.

THE LONGTIME VALUE MANAGERS at Prospector Funds, meanwhile, eschew the handful of large banks most of the market fixates on, instead choosing from the thousands of smaller insurers, thrifts, and community banks that operate in a more manageable world and with a fraction of the leverage. They've had a heavy stake in small and medium-size financial companies since they launched their Prospector Opportunity fund (POPFX) in 2007. "In 2008, our financials actually outperformed our other holdings," says manager Kevin O'Brien. The beauty of investing in regional institutions, he adds, is the ability to handpick areas with strong or improving economies and housing markets. This led them to the likes of Oritani Financial ORIT -1.1548913043478262% Oritani Financial Corp. U.S.: Nasdaq USD14.55 -0.17 -1.1548913043478262% /Date(1416952800033-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 171321 AFTER HOURS USD14.5483 -0.00170000000000137 -0.01168384879725086% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1742 P/E Ratio 15.495207667731629 Market Cap 659794599.371377 Dividend Yield 4.810996563573883% Rev. per Employee 571176 More quote details and news » (ORIT) in New Jersey and Chicopee Bancorp CBNK -0.37105751391465674% Chicopee Bancorp Inc.

While skeptics point to regulatory pressures as a reason to stay away from banks, the Prospector team sees the benefits. Not only do highly regulated industries provide additional opportunity for scrutiny, they're fertile grounds for mergers and acquisitions.
Keith Trauner and Larry Pitkowsky also see value in staying away from the behemoths. The duo launched the GoodHaven Fund (GOODX) in April 2011, after leaving Bruce Berkowitz's Fairholme Fund (FAIRX). While Berkowitz wagers on big financials -- they were recently 77% of his portfolio -- the GoodHaven managers are following a different tack, favoring niche firms, such as Federated Investors FII 0.4752851711026616% Federated Investors Inc. U.S.: NYSE USD31.71 0.15 0.4752851711026616% /Date(1416953030687-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 270447 AFTER HOURS USD31.71 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1177 P/E Ratio 22.020833333333332 Market Cap 3343466226.14153 Dividend Yield 3.15357931251971% Rev. per Employee 606008 More quote details and news » (FII), known for its money-market and other short-term funds, or the relatively small investment bank and asset manager Jefferies Group (JEF). "It's not that we think everyone is wrong or there isn't money to be made," says Trauner. "But we're more interested in things we can get our arms around. People inside those large banks don't even know how to value them."
The Bottom Line
Financial stocks have rebounded nicely from their lows, but despite the run-up, many value managers are still finding opportunity -- and keeping their fingers crossed.
Four years after getting burned on financials, Olstein hasn't forgotten the lessons he learned. As he sees it, his firm made two huge mistakes -- overweighting these stocks and underestimating their potential to reverse quickly and dramatically. "When you make a mistake on a leveraged business model, you pay dearly," he says.
With that in mind, Olstein instituted a new rule: "We stop buying at 1% [of fund assets] and put no more than 10% of the portfolio in leveraged businesses."
And although Olstein has tiptoed back in -- his fund owns Legg Mason LM 0.19438063262060434% Legg Mason Inc. U.S.: NYSE USD56.7 0.11 0.19438063262060434% /Date(1416953243045-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1096095 AFTER HOURS USD56.7 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 31725 P/E Ratio 29.53125 Market Cap 6457484972.324 Dividend Yield 1.128747795414462% Rev. per Employee 988162 More quote details and news » (LM) and U.S. Bancorp USB -0.8113590263691683% U.S. Bancorp U.S.: NYSE USD44.01 -0.36 -0.8113590263691683% /Date(1416953158155-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 5124201 AFTER HOURS USD44.01 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 272827 P/E Ratio 14.382352941176471 Market Cap 79395054302.1085 Dividend Yield 2.226766643944558% Rev. per Employee 309799 More quote details and news » (USB), among others -- he says "we're not looking for home runs in financial models anymore."

Toronto's road to Oscar begins
The 31st annual Toronto film festival opened on Thursday amid warnings from critics that happy movies are going to be few and far between, as themes from many of the 350-plus entrants reflect the grim state of the world.
Movies about death, dying, illness, terrorism, war, rape, politics and violence make up more than 250 of the 352 films to be shown nearly round-the-clock over 10 days at North America's most important film festival -- one that boasts that it is the first stop on the road to Oscars.
The festival formally opens with a red-carpet gala for an Inuit-made film, "The Journals of Knud Rasmussen," about Canada's frozen north and cultural destruction wrought on native people by European Christians. Not a cheerful subject.Nor is one of the festival most anticipated films, "Babel," a happy one. Made by acclaimed Mexican director Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu and starring Brad Pitt, it is a 143-minute mediation on the failure of cultures to communicate. Toronto Globe and Mail writer Johanna Schneller said, "sitting though it was one of the more gut wrenching experiences of my movie-going life."
Happily, the grimness of subject matter has done nothing to keep the stars at home tending their gardens. The red carpets are out for the likes of Pitt, Sean Penn, Kate Winslet, Russell Crowe, Will Ferrell, Penelope Cruz, Dustin Hoffman, Rachel Weisz, Jennifer Lopez, Sharon Stone and Demi Moore -- all of whom are expected in town to promote their latest works.
The hottest ticket at the moment is for the premiere of a film that has no star -- just a provocative title and idea. Called "Death of a President," it is a British-made film done in documentary style about what would happen if President George W. Bush was assassinated, especially to the war in Iraq and to civil liberties.
"This is easily the most dangerous and breathtakingly original film I have encountered this year," said Festival co-director Noah Cowan of the movie.
Sensing that the film would stir controversy, it was only referred to as "D.O.A.P." in the festival's guidebook.It is, however, not the only political film that is expected to raise hackles.
The festival will also premiere the documentary "Dixie Chicks: Shut up and Sing," about the fallout of singer Natalie Maines' criticism of Bush at a concert in London.
Controversial filmmaker Michael Moore will discuss the reaction he's had to his anti-Bush documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11," and show parts of his new film, "Sicko," which takes aim at the U.S. health-care system.
The Pakistani film "Shame," which receives its world premiere at Toronto, tells the true story of Mukhtaran Mai, who was ordered gang-raped by her village's elders for a crime her brother was accused of committing. Instead of killing herself as was expected, she fought back and became an international human rights symbol. But she still has many enemies at home.
Also dealing with the subject of rape is the Indian film "A Cry in the Dark," a documentary about mass protests against the death of a girl in police custody after she was raped.
"Kabul Express," from Indian director Kabir Khan, takes a wry look at the aftermath of the Afghan war from the perspective of three reporters who forge an unlikely friendship with a Taliban fighter. Filmed in late 2005, it was the first international movie to be made entirely in Afghanistan since the Taliban were forced out of power.
Among the films being touted as potential Oscar candidates are Steven Zaillian's "All the King's Men," starring Sean Penn as a political demagogue, and Kevin MacDonald's "The Last King of Scotland," starring Forest Whitaker as dictator Idi Amin.
Toronto last year helped set Philip Seymour Hoffman on the road to an Oscar for his performance as writer Truman Capote and may do the same for Whitaker.
The festival is not entirely without laughs. Former "Gladiator" star and off-screen hellraiser Russell Crowe teams up again with director Sir Ridley Scott -- this time for a comedy.
Crowe plays a banker needing to change his life and find romance in the south of France in a "A Good Year." It was the sort of role Cary Grant used to play, and some may find Crowe a hoot to watch in a clearly change of pace role, designed to make him a heartthrob.Copyright © 2014, Los Angeles Times

Store manager takes a stand against sagging pants
By Justin Hinton, KFDM News
Lunch time at Judice's in Port Arthur is a busy time with people buying groceries or getting ready to eat lunch.
"They'll be leaning over the counter and their pants will be all the way down here and I'll go 'oh my gosh'."
It's another opportunity for store manager Judy Cormier to display a "no sagging" sign. All of the signs have the same message: customers are required to keep their pants at their waist and pull them up. If they don't, the store manager will ask them to leave.
"We had a sign up there and it said, 'no shirt, no shoes, no pants over your butt, no service', but basically nobody paid attention to it." So Cormier and the secretary went to work making yet another one.
Cormer added a new sign today: "Pull up or don't come in."
She doesn't want saggy pants to be a reflection of her business.
"As soon as I put 'em up, I had a customer say what are those for and I said they're pants. And she goes thank goodness. She said because something needs to be done about that."
That customer wasn't the only one.
"I just don't like it, I know they can do better, that's why they sell belts."
Even the customers we spotted with sagging pants said it's a rarity.
"I don't really sag, it's just pants are a little big on me. I just forgot to wear my belt."
The manager didn't throw him out, but Cormier is hopeful he and others will think twice before entering her store.
Even if it takes a little help from a few large signs.

Originally written on Holdout Sports | Last updated 11/18/14
Your browser does not support iframes. Miami Marlins catcher Jeff Mathis was caught losing track of the count during the team's Independence Day game against the Atlanta Braves as he walked halfway to first base after taking ball three in his eighth inning at-bat. Mathis took a 2-2 pitch that was way outside, then tossed his bat aside and started jogging to first base thinking he had walked. Mathis made it halfway to first base before being told to turn around, leading him to take an embarrassing walk of shame back to home plate, drawing some laughs from the crowd at Turner Field. Fortunately, Mathis did walk for real after ball four came on the very next pitch. You would think that it wouldn't be too much to ask for a major league batter to pay attention to the count, as they only come up to the plate a few times a game. We're pretty sure his Marlins teammates gave Mathis a gentle reminder after the game was over. Video via MLB.

Art Producers Speak: Dustin Chambers
We emailed Art Buyers and Art Producers around the world asking them to submit names of established photographers who were keeping it fresh and up-and-comers who they are keeping their eye on. If you are an Art Buyer/Producer or an Art Director at an agency and want to submit a photographer anonymously for this column email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Anonymous Art Buyer: I nominate Dustin Chambers. This kid is legit. Slowly getting more and more National work. Love to see him get some press.
How many years have you been in business?
I've been shooting professionally since I got out of school, so since 2009.
Are you self-taught or photography school taught?
I am self-taught, I studied film as an English concentration and minored in French.
Who was your greatest influence that inspired you to get into this business?
My father was an advertising photographer, so growing up I spent many afternoons after school in his studio. I didn't really pick up a still camera until high school. I remember being taken by the work of Bresson and Arbus from a young age.
How do you find your inspiration to be so fresh, push the envelope, stay true to yourself so that creative folks are noticing you and hiring you?
I'm still figuring that out. Life feels non-stop a lot of the time, so I'm just evolving with the work I do and hoping my photography gets better in that process. There are a lot of photographs I'd like to make, but ultimately I make photographs that I'm moved to make and hope for the best.
Do you find that some creatives love your work but the client holds you back?
I work mainly with newspaper and editorial work, which is creatively a little more free. They hire you to do what you do in relation to the rest of the world. There's no art director, no stylist, it's just you. Ideally you work with creatives who can turn into clients.
What are you doing to get your vision out to the buying audience?
Even learning to think of myself as an artist has been a big step. This year I'll be one of 12 artists in Dashboard Co-Op in Atlanta, as well as showing work in the Art Papers auction. I also participated in a Flash Powder retreat where I learned a ton about the fine art side of the business.
What is your advice for those who are showing what they think the buyers want to see?
I guess that's good as long as you're staying true to your vision.
Are you shooting for yourself and creating new work to keep your artistic talent true to you?
Not recently, no. It's hard! But I'm also on staff at Creative Loafing, an alt-weekly in Atlanta, that allows me to shoot my art for their stories, which is really a blessing. I do find that I am most prodding and curious and inspired when I'm somewhere out of my element, away from my city. It doesn't have to be some fantastic journey across the seas, but if I drove to Florida or Mobile, Alabama, I'd certainly be more taken with more mundane stuff, as I tend to be.
How often are you shooting new work?
Every week for the paper or freelance. For myself solely? Rarely. Every month maybe.

He loves the American South and the odd cultural dichotomy that exists particularly in Atlanta.

Not much known about this particular strain. However, seems to smoke very nicely with a strong head high and lasting effect.
- Type: High Grade
Not much known about this particular strain. However, seems to smoke very nicely with a strong head high and lasting effect.
Also known as Fruity Juice, this cannabis strain was developed by Sensi Seeds. Crossed with pure Afghani indica and pure Thai sativa. Smells are described as ranging from tangy and sweet, sort of like fruit punch and lemons, to a blend of piña colada and plums. The effects begin with a dizzy, light-headed feeling and can last up to 3 hours.
J1 is a high-end hybrid strain that is gaining widespread popularity. Although a hybrid, the high-energy effects categorize the strain more on the sativa end of the scale. J1 is a cross between two famous sativas, Skunk #1 and Jack Herer, and is best known for its strong, uplifting, clear-headed buzz that allows for mobility. The flowers are emerald green and frosty with a sweet aroma resembling the unmistakable Jack Herer pungency.
OG Kush is commonly described as sativa-like in its euphoric and happy effects that combat stress and anxiety. It has an earthy pine scent with woody undertones, an aroma that has become the signature of OG Kush varieties and descendants. With OG Kush, patients most commonly cite improvements in migraines, ADD/ADHD, and stress disorders.

Squatter Gets $300,000 Home for $16
Working hard to pay off an underwater mortgage? I am — but Kenneth Robinson sure isn't. Due to one of the many screwball quirks that characterize our legal system, he has achieved ownership of a $300,000 home in Flower Mound, Texas for $16.
The house had been in foreclosure for more than a year and its owner walked away. Then, the mortgage company went bust. … Mr Robinson used the obscure law 'adverse possession', filled out some paperwork costing just $16, and moved some of his belongings into the home.
Under the law, if someone moves into an abandoned home they have exclusive negotiating rights with the original owner.
If the owner wants them to leave, they have to pay off the mortgage debt on the home and the bank has to file a complicated lawsuit to get them evicted.
Mr Robinson believes that because of the cost required to move him out, he will be able to stay in the house. Under occupancy laws, if he remains there for three years he can ask the court for the title.
The New American Dream: something for nothing.
The house has just a few pieces of furniture inside and has no running water or electricity.
No doubt Mr. Robinson is doing for the value of other houses in the neighborhood what Democrats and their Community Reinvestment Act continue to do for housing prices nationwide.
In a world run by liberals, whose of us who work hard, honor our commitments, and pay our bills are suckers. The system is designed to be gamed by those who take what they haven't earned.

Lawrence, KS (Sports Network) - Ben McLemore put home a game-high 25 points and pulled down eight rebounds as the seventh-ranked Kansas Jayhawks used a huge second half to come away with a 69-55 win over Chattanooga at Allen Fieldhouse.
Elijah Johnson finished with 18 points on 7-of-10 shooting and Jeff Withey added 11 points and 10 boards for Kansas (2-1), which bounced back from a loss to Michigan State on Tuesday.
Farad Cobb scored 21 points to go with five rebounds, while Zaccheus Mason and Drazen Zlovaric donated 13 and 10 points, respectively, for the Mocs. (1-1).
"We're not satisfied with losing, but I think we saw a lot of promise from our end," said Chattanooga coach John Shulman.
Mason drained a deep three-pointer early in the second half to put Chattanooga up 42-30, but Kansas then woke up and delivered a knockout blow in the form of a 19-1 surge, to go ahead 49-43 with just under 13 minutes to play.
McLemore and Johnson combined to score 14 points during the run, which was capped by a Naadir Thorpe three-ball, forcing Chattanooga to call a timeout.
Kansas continued to score at will the rest of the game, holding the Mocs to just 19 points in the second half en route to the victory.
"I thought the first half was the worst we've played and the second half was the best we've played all year," said Kansas coach Bill Self.
Chattanooga got off to a quick start as a 3-pointer by Mason gave the visitors an early 10-5 lead, but it remained close as a layup by Perry Ellis pulled Kansas within three with just over 11 minutes to play in the opening half.
Chattanooga then used a quick 7-2 spurt to open a 24-16 advantage with 6:54 on the clock. A jumper by Withey made it 24-20, but Chattanooga responded with a 6-0 flurry, capped by a Cobb trey, to widen the lead to 30-20 with less than four minutes to go in the first stanza.
The Mocs took a 36-28 lead into the locker room at halftime.
