Surprise! The National League is Better
Surprise! The National League is Better
The American League has better hitting and pitching. The National League sucks! How many times have baseball fans said this (Or at least the first half of that statement)? For a while now it has been widely assumed that the AL is the better league, even with the NL taking the last 2 world championships.
But that assumption is wrong, and there has to be something that helps people begin to realize why the league that lets pitchers hit is the MLB's better half.
So how in the world did I find this groundbreaking revelation? Let's start with last week's all-star game. The AL had their powerful lineup all set and ready to put on a show, one that would basically extend the previous night's home run derby. Before they even had a chance to do so, the NL had gone completely through the batting order and scored 5 runs on Justin Verlander.
If you ask me, the AL should have called it quits when bowling ball-shaped Pablo Sandoval hit a bases-clearing triple. The NL would go on to use all 11 pitchers to combine for a 8-0 shutout. Despite having such a loaded lineup and the supposed best pitcher in the league (Verlander), the AL managed to find one thing in common with the Kansas City Royals, whose stadium was hosting the All-Star Game: Even when playing at home, they get destroyed.
There's probably already one person reading this who wants to say, Hey, no fair! You can't judge them based on one game. And only 2 AL pitchers allowed runs in this game!
Yes. That is true, it was only one game. Take out Verlander and Matt Harrison, and it's a 0-0 ball game. That still doesn't help the argument for the American League being better.
The stats also don't help the AL's argument.
Consider this: The National League uses pitchers, who take up roughly 60% of the at-bats for the 9th spot in the batting order. The rest are from pinch-hitters, who mostly aren't every-day starters. Conversely, the American League has the Designated Hitter, who gets more than 1/9 of the team's at-bats, and is usually good enough of a hitter to be in the top half of the lineup. The American League's DH should provide much more offensive production than the average 9th hitter on a given NL team.
The stats disagree here. If you average the batting statistics of all teams, and compare the two leagues against each other, the batting averages are virtually equal (AL .255; NL .254). In the other major categories (RBI, runs, total bases, on-base %, slugging), the AL's stats are less than 5% better than the production of the NL. The average Designated Hitter should easily create that small margin. Even if American League teams end the season with 10% more runs than their National League counterparts, that wouldn't be anything real impressive- Especially when you consider that we're putting the batting stats of Billy Butler and David Ortiz up against the numbers from NL pitchers and 5th outfielders.
Unless the AL and NL are relinquished and all teams are free to play each other under the same rules, we'll have no exact way of comparing all 30 teams. With that said, the small statistical margin despite the handicap advantage of having a DH in no way supports that the AL is a better hitting league. At best, the two teams are dead even.
As far as pitching goes, look no further than the all-star game. Out of the 9 guys with 20+ home runs, and the others who are hitting well over .300, the AL was loaded with sluggers. Worst case scenario, they struggle but one of them manages to hit a home run or something. With a lineup that good, somebody's guaranteed to produce a run or two, right?
Nope. The National League shut them out. There was clearly depth on the pitching staff, too, as all 11 pitchers played, and no runs were scored. Beyond that, there were numerous National League pitchers having all-star caliber seasons that weren't selected to play. Maybe after this all-star game, guys like Jose Bausista, Josh Hamilton, and Curtis Granderson will be thankful that they don't have to face National League pitching every day.
We're well into the season now. The National League has proven that its players are just as good as, if not better than, the American Leaguers at hitting and pitching. The NL also dominated the All-Star Game. What other evidence is needed? Do fans need ESPN to leave the love affair with the Red Sox and Yankees, and do a 3 hour SportsCenter special on the National League's recent success? The Senior Circuit is back in business, and has young teams like Washington, Cincinnati and Pittsburgh on the rise, so it's only getting stronger. And guess, what? The American League gets to have the Astros, starting next year! Hope the AL has fun with that.

Canada is blessed with some of the last vestiges of pristine nature on Earth -- unbroken forests, coastlines and prairies, thousands of rivers, streams and lakes, open skies, abundant fresh air. We are also defined by our Constitution. Our Constitution's Charter of Rights and Freedoms gives us freedom of expression, equal protection from discrimination and the right to life, liberty and security of the person. But it doesn't mention the environment. How can we fully enjoy our freedoms without the right to live in a healthy environment?
Last week, I found out that my government is spying on me, Canada ranked worst in the developed world for response to climate change, Canadians rose up against pipeline proposals all across the country, and the media reported precious little of any of it. What happened to the Canada we know and love? Where is the country that holds its head high in the world, a respected leader on human rights and environmental issues?
In my first week in 2007 as the newly-minted President and CEO of the former National Round Table on the Environment and the Economy, I sat for breakfast in Toronto with a leading environmental advocate. I asked why he and his ilk were so stridently opposed to the then-new Conservative government's environmental policies. He allowed that despite good work being done on chemicals and toxics and waste issues, the government was simply not doing enough about climate change. Action here was required to get credit there. This was my first introduction to the powerful political elixir of social licence.
Why should the rest of the world take the Conservative government seriously at the annual UN Climate Change Conference in Warsaw or next year in Lima or in Paris in 2015? We've been regularly shamed by the international community, receiving the ignominious "Fossil of the Year" title five years in a row. As it stands now, their actions on everything from emissions regulations to climate finance aren't living up to the standards of the international community, or the standards that Canadians deserve.
The report from the Commissioner for the Environment goes on and on through painful chapter after painful chapter cataloguing, in great detail, highlighting failure after failure by the Harper government to address everything from biological diversity and the conservation of migratory birds to Recovery Planning for Species at Risk and Ecological integrity of National Parks.
In what has to be one of the most bizarre and misleading press releases I have ever seen, the B.C. government issued a report in reference to the province's Montney Formation, that claimed: "this potential [natural gas] supply can support development and LNG export operations for more than 150 years". Let's take a closer look at this 150 year number.
It's sad to see so much of our media and governance in such a sorry state that we can't even expect rational discussion of critical issues such as climate change and energy policy. The science is clear that it is real and that we are a major contributor, mainly through burning fossil fuels and cutting down forests.
With the right technology, solar energy can be stored during the middle of the day and shifted for use whenever it is needed. In remote microgrid and island grid systems, PV energy generation combined with energy storage can become the primary source of power, relegating diesel generators to a back-up role and resulting in an energy ecosystem that is more reliable, sustainable and affordable.
Hi, my name is Rachel Parent. I'm 14 years old and just started high school in Toronto. People ask me all the time, "What's it like to be a child activist?" Well, it definitely keeps you busy. Insanely busy! But I love it! It's so much fun and you feel so good because you're doing good for the world.
Once again, Canada's Conservatives are bound and determined to roll right over, close their eyes and sleep through the alarm bells on climate change. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) most recent assessment is a reminder of the urgency of addressing global warming, and the dangers of ignoring rising sea levels and increasing temperatures. In contrast, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said in response that the newest report released by the IPCC is a wake-up call, and "those who deny the science or choose excuses over action are playing with fire." Our largest trading partner gets it. So where's Canada's government on this critical environmental and economic issue?
Mother Nature seems to be a little out of sorts these days. In excruciating detail, the IPCC documents her unhappiness with anthropogenic (a.k.a. man-made) activity. She is even giving some early warnings directly to the PM and his Minister of the Environment. Mother Nature is not impressed and neither are Canadians.
For over a decade the Federal government has ignored warnings from transportation safety boards on both sides of the border about the unsafe nature of the rail cars Canada is using to transport dangerous goods. The warnings come because these cars are "spill prone" and tend to discharge their load on impact.
Elizabeth Kubler-Ross wrote a book about the five stages of grief. Denial of inconvenient facts is the first stage. It is followed by anger. Clearly the Conservatives have a deep well from which to draw. Bargaining is the third stage after denial and anger. The problem however is that Mother Nature is indifferent to Prime Ministers. Mother Nature doesn't do Bargaining.
While its easy to finger regimes with questionable human rights records it is somewhat challenging at times tallying up the environmental record of sun destinations. This topic weighed heavily on my mind this year during four months spent in one of the most desirable destinations on the planet -- the Maldives.
The summary of the fifth Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report has been released, and it confirms that climate change is real, dangerous, and caused by us. More than 97% of science papers that take a position on climate change support this conclusion.This unprecedented level of scientific certainty has not stopped legions of pundits from rejecting evidence, questioning scientists' motives and qualifications, and proposing ever-sillier ideas that scientists themselves are part of a vast international green conspiracy. If only that were true.
It's time that governments stop signing trade and investment pacts that put the rights of corporations above the rights of communities and the environment. My right to clean water, clean air, and a healthy planet for my family and community has to come before Lone Pine's right to mine and profit... doesn't it?
Most traditional dry cleaning methods use perchloroethylene, a chemical linked to bladder, esophageal, and cervical cancer, eye, nose, throat and skin irritation, and reduced fertility, and other health problems. Here are some tips to keep your dry-clean-only clothes smelling clean and fresh, while protecting your health and the environment at the same time.
Lummi territory just south of the Canadian border is under threat of a proposed coal export terminal at Cherry Point, Washington. Known to its original inhabitants as Xwe'chi'eXen, the spot is located 17 miles south of the Canadian border. The proposed Gateway Pacific Terminal would be the largest of its kind on the American west coast, transporting such dry bulk commodities as grain, potash and coal to Asian markets. The Tsleil-Waututh nation of North Vancouver is embroiled in a battle to keep Enbridge and Kinder Morgan out of its traditional territory. Both are fighting destructive resource development on their lands. Both are water nations, and their collective well-being depends upon the health of the Salish sea.
Last month the World Wildlife Foundation released a study which gave the Thames River a "Poor" grade. It is crucial that we protect our lakes and rivers. The Thames is central to the community in London and all of the other communities through which it flows. We need to work together to protect our river, not only for us but for future generations.

Jenny McCarthy Talks Autism, Instincts, and Jim Carrey
On how she felt when Evan had a seven-hour seizure and went into cardiac arrest in 2004: I ran out of my house and into my driveway and screamed at the top of my lungs to God to just take him away, because I loved him so much and he was in so much pain.
On Amanda Peet calling parents who don't vaccinate their children "parasites": I think vaccines are one of the greatest things ever invented. I used to be [Peet] before I had a kid with autism.
On the position of Generation Rescue: "Vaccinations are safe — dot, dot, dot — for some kids. Vaccinations are not safe — dot, dot, dot — for other kids. Let's protect the ones who are weak. We are pro–safe vaccine. Vaccines are just not one size fits all. If you gave everyone in the world penicillin, there would be some adverse effects for some people, and possibly deaths."
On parental instincts: "We're the generation of parents who are saying, 'Listen to us. We are the bosses of our children.' I want parents to realize that, and not get pushed around by doctors who say, 'Oh, that's 100 percent safe.'"
On her most humbling mom moment: "Watching Evan pee on a fake tree in a waiting room."
On her relationship with Jim Carrey: "It's wacky-weird that not only does [Carrey] not want to get married, which I love, but he also doesn't want to have more kids, which I love."

Hello, Kristen
I seek some proofs and confimations on an Anne Pownell, supposedly born 6 Feb 1572 and who is said to have wed a John Nixon on 30 Apr 1604 in Leek Parish. I have different dates of death: 1605 and 30 Nov 1629. I discount the earlier date as Anne and John had at least five children. They resided in Meerbrook, a few miles N of Leek and not far south of Parnall fee.
Is it possible that you have information on this member of the Pownell/Pownall family?

MINI Launches the Cooper SD in Europe and the UK
A few days ago we told you about MINI USA's plans to release a Clubman diesel in late 2016/early 2017. Today we get an early peak at what will likely be a variation of the engine used. The Cooper SD is the fastest and most powerful diesel ever offered in a MINI. With 170hp and a healthy 266 ft lbs of torque, the new 2.0L diesel should sprint to 60 mph in under seven seconds while returning 59 MPG US (4.0 to 4.1 litres per 100 kilometers). Will we see that kind of efficiency with the Clubman? It's much too early to tell but we'd expect MINI to aim for something over 50 MPG.
Read on for the full details on the new Cooper SD and the MINI One First that was also launched today.
Official Release: The new MINI remains on course for growth. After its successful market launch, the engine range for the new original in the small car premium segment continues to expand as of July 2014. In future, the selection will include the new MINI Cooper SD as the most powerful diesel variant and the new entry-level petrol engine model MINI One First. Both newcomers offer an impressively favourable balance between driving fun and fuel consumption. In total there are now seven power units available for the model produced at the British MINI plant in Oxford, including four petrol and three diesel engines – all of which were completely newly developed.
The new engine generation with three or four cylinders and MINI TwinPower Turbo Technology creates the basis for a clear boost in terms of both agility and efficiency in the new version of the MINI. This is also demonstrated in the latest additions to the model program. The engine in the new MINI Cooper SD is the most powerful diesel ever in a vehicle of the MINI brand. The 2.0-litre 4-cylinder engine generates a peak output of 125 kW/170 hp, putting its maximum torque of 360 Newton metres on stream at 1 500 rpm. Its MINI TwinPower Turbo Technology has a turbocharging system with variable turbine geometry and common rail injection with magnet valve injectors operating at a maximum pressure of 2 000 bar. This combination enables both highly spontaneous power delivery as well as a precisely controlled fuel supply.
Thanks to the pulling power of the new diesel engine, the MINI Cooper SD completes the sprint from zero to 100 km/h in 7.3 seconds. The optionally available 6-speed Steptronic transmission enables an acceleration figure of 7.2 seconds. This sporty temperament is combined with an average fuel consumption of 4.0 to 4.1 litres per 100 kilometres in each case, with CO2 emissions of 106 to 110 grams per kilometre (automatic: 104 to 108 g/km, EU test cycle figures, dependent on tyre format selected).
In the new MINI One First, too, cutting-edge engine technology ensures hallmark brand driving fun is combined with exemplary efficiency. The MINI TwinPower Turbo Technology in its 3-cylinder petrol engine comprises turbocharging, petrol direct injection and variable camshaft control on the intake and exhaust side (double VANOS). In this way, an output of 55 kW/75 hp is mobilised from a capacity of 1.2 litres. The entry-level variant among the petrol engines also offers spontaneous power delivery, with a maximum torque of 150 Newton metres going on stream at 1 400 rpm. The new MINI One First reaches the 100 km/h mark from standing in 12.8 seconds. Its average fuel consumption is 5.0 to 5.2 litres per 100 kilometres, while the relevant CO2 emissions rating is between 117 and 122 grams per kilometre (figures based on EU test cycle, dependent on selected tyre format).

Top five reasons the White Sox will win the AL Central
By S.C. Zuba
Sports Columnist
With baseball season just around the corner, I feel it is the perfect time for me to unveil my "Top five reasons the Chicago White Sox will win the AL Central Division in 2010" list.
In just a few short days, the long-awaited Opening Day will be here, and baseball fans will finally have the chance to see how their favorite ball clubs fare during the 2010 season.
It's been a long time since most people have seen their baseball teams play—pitchers and catchers have reported, the monotonous inter-squad games have been played, and the irrelevant spring training games are almost over. Baseball is here.
So, following are my top five reasons why the Chicago White Sox will regain their title as champions of the AL Central.
5. Joe Nathan—The Minnesota Twins' closer, Joe Nathan, recently went down with a season-ending elbow injury, which will cause him to miss the entire 2010 campaign. So, what does this mean for the White Sox?
Had Nathan not gone down, I would have had a very difficult time deciding between the Twins or the Sox for the AL Central crown as I believed their records would have been similar; however, without Nathan, the Twins will be less likely to close out key, close games, giving the Sox the advantage they will need to overtake the defending AL Central champions.
4. Outfield—The White Sox outfield is the X factor of the team. How those three players perform will ultimately determine how the rest of the team does.
As it stands now, Carlos Quentin, Andruw Jones and Alex Rios are slated to be the starters. Each of those three players has something special to offer; however, the question of whether those three players will live up to their capabilities still remains.
Quentin had an up-and-down season in 2009, partly because of injury. If he can return to his form of 2008—before his self-inflicted broken hand—the Sox's chance at a title go up dramatically.
For Jones and Rios, the Sox need to get one more good year from Jones, and Rios needs to live up to the mega-contract the Blue Jays awarded him with.
3. Gordon Beckham—Gordon Beckham is the future of this ball club. He has more potential than any other player currently wearing a White Sox uniform. He is coming into his second season in the Big Leagues, and if he can avoid the sophomore slump, the Sox will be in good shape.
Beckham is a special player. Right out of college, scouts were touting him as "the next big thing in baseball." Let's see if they're right.
2. Paul Konerko—This reason may be more nostalgic than anything else, but this is the last year of Paul Konerko's contract, and most likely his last year with the White Sox. As one of the few remaining members from the 2005 World Series squad, it would be great to see the team succeed for him.
Konerko is a competitor, and if this year is anything like the last, he will leave it all on U.S. Cellular Field.
1. Starting rotation—Alas, we have reached No. 1. Mark Buehrle, Jake Peavy, John Danks, Gavin Floyd and Freddy Garcia make up the 2010 Chicago White Sox starting rotation. Those five names say enough. I would argue, from top to bottom, the Sox have the best rotation in the league.
When Garcia is No. 5 in a five-man rotation, you know you're going to be all right.
Share your thoughts with S.C. Zuba via e-mail at email@example.com.

I wish I could help, but I have no idea where my great-grandfather lived. The only town name I have is "Lustin" Poland, and I'm not sure if that is even an accurate name.
I did find a town called Lustin in Belarus, but I have no way to know if there's a connection there or not.
Your family story is fascinating -- I wish you the best of luck with your search.

Stayed here, then at the Roosevelt Hotel for work.Posted Nov 5, 2014
Pros: Clean, up to date
Location: Extremely centralized in upper midtown.
This is a very nice hotel, right at Grand Central which is a perfect location. There is no comparison between this hotel and the Roosevelt -this is a significantly nicer hotel! European, and would definitely recommend to others. Rooms aren't super large, but have just what you need.

close to times squarePosted Oct 28, 2014
Pros: close to times square. walking distance.
Cons: Definitely the rooms. paint peeling off the ceilings including the bathroom. plastic base for shower in a supposedly deluxe room.Walls shaking w noise
Rooms need renovation. Meanwhile they where renovating the lobby with lots of noise and drilling tile removal etc. ALL WEEKEND. I could not hear the desk clerk upon checkout.Upholstered chair in room was very dirty. I put a towel to sit on it ! I will not stay there again. It used to be much better before the new ownership. Staff was very friendly and polite.

Didn't stayPosted Oct 17, 2014
When I arrived at the hotel I was told that there's no room for me, even though I have already paid for it in Expedia. They have transferred my stay to their sister hotel in downtown, the Hotel Wallstreet. They claim the hotel is the same although the latter is only a 3 star hotel. When I was about to leave another guest tried to check in, the guest was given a room without any issue. I asked the front desk, the guy says that I wasnt given a room because I reserved it too late.

It's all about conveniencePosted Sep 29, 2014
We chose the hotel because it is one block from grand central and the JFK airport express drops off almost directly in front of the hotel so no hauling luggage through the city. the Newark airporter also picks up 1 block away on same street which made our one night layover in the city most convient. It was a good rate and advertised including 2 breakfasts so we booked. We had some trouble with the staff over our breakfast vouchers. they claimed it wasn't included and rather than nicely rectifying the problem for us and dealing with Expedia on their time they initially wanted to argue with me and make me stand in the lobby while the called to argue it out with expedia. It took me throwing a fit before they decided to issue the breakfast th expedia. It wouldn't have been such a big deal but the hotel was marketed to us as including a breakfast that the hotel was not going to allow. The breakfast would have cost an additional $20 each and just would not have been worth the $. It is a European style breakfast. Aside from the customer service issues this was a good hotel.

Very central and close to a lot of activitPosted Sep 25, 2014
I found the location to be super convenient close enough to times square without the hassle of inconvenience that accompanies staying in times square ie when streets are closed on weekends for parades and hordes of people to move about . The rooms could do with a little upgrade but all in all generally very comfortable

Not impressed with this over priced and over rated hotel in a great location. It could use a renovation. Very large room and bath but bathroom could do with a counter to place toiletries. Mattress needs to be replaced but sheets were great, blanket; not so great.

Clean hotel, good locationPosted Sep 16, 2014
Pros: It was clean.
But the hotel itself should not be 4 stars and is NOT worth the price, even in NYC. The staff was not very helpful, the room was ok, and the amenities were bare. 1. Toilet screeched like a banshee on every flush 2. "Front Desk" button on the phone did not ring through to front desk, but did ring (and apparently we were supposed to magically know to dial 0 instead; front desk clerk insisted it was "in the booklet" but could not find it noted anywhere when I brought the book to him)--subsequently dialing-0 also did not result in a front-desk attendant picking up 3. Requested extra towels, that were then TAKEN by housekeeping when they cleaned the room (even though they weren't on the floor) 4. No one offered to take up bags on check-in 5. I think we were actually overcharged for parking but didn't even bother to bring it up because I was tired of dealing with the staff 6. Linens were stiff and uncomfortable, bed was cheap, and pillows barely there

Entire hotel smelled of stale smoke, hotel wasn't able to give me the non-smoking room requested. Overall hotel is rundown looking.

Bari – Inter Cristian Chivu Knock Marco Rossi! [2011-02-03]November 21st, 2014
Video clip Rating: 4 / five
Video clip Rating: 4 / five
The Internazionale head Mr. Erick Thohir says he has no plans to do the analysis of the work of the head coach Walter Mazzarri in near future.
After Inter's big losses to Cagliari and Fiorentina, some newspapers in Italy had quoted the club chairman saying that the manager's job was unsafe and the results of the next couple of games would determine if he continues or gets handed the axe. After that, the names of some unemployed managers started to pop up with Robert Mancini being rumoured as the strongest contender. Read the rest of this entry »

Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal has suggested that the club may be prepared to spend more than £ 60 million in their efforts to bring back former star Cristiano Ronaldo to Old Trafford. The possibility of Ronaldo returning to United has become a real possibility with the player also understood to be interested. Van Gaal, however, confirmed that any potential deal would take place only if Madrid are interested in selling their superstar. The last six months have seen Ronaldo picking niggling injuries, which may appear to suggest that he is declining from his peak.
Angel di Maria is a transfer that totally justifies the £60 million spent on him. The Argentine will be able to offer around seven years of top-level football. United will be far better off spending the money on players that they really need at this moment. The club has some serious issues to address especially in the defence where the likes of Johnny Evans look out of depth at times. The position is even made worse by the fact that Evans is the most experienced defender at United. The club kept its second consecutive clean sheet of the season in the 4-0 win against QPR. This positive result came after a 0-0 draw with Burnley, but it should be remembered that both these clean sheets have come against newly promoted teams.
Far sterner tests like United this season with matches against Manchester City and Chelsea around the corner. Perhaps, Van Gaal will realise from these matches that United need an experienced defender more than any other player now. "It is possible. Players like Ronaldo give a lot of extra to a team, but I don't think Real Madrid shall sell him. Yes, but it's always a discussion in the papers, and I don't think the media shall buy Ronaldo," said Van Gaal.

Former Arsenal midfielder Denilson has claimed that he is interested in the possibility of a return to European football. Portuguese club Benfica are thought to be interested in securing his services. They are believed to have made an offer with Denilson's current club São Paulo, who managed to secure the player on a permanent basis a few years ago. Despite being only 26, the Brazilian midfielder has already played numerous matches in his career. A career total of close to 300 matches makes him an ideal buy for a club like Benfica, who have recently lost key players like Jan Oblak.
Denilson claims that Benfica have made an offer for him, but it is not known whether São Paulo will accept it. São Paulo are unlikely to demand huge sums of money for the 26-year-old given that they signed him a free transfer. Denilson initially came back to the Brazilian club on a loan deal at the start of the 2011 season. After two years on loan, he decided to end his contract with Arsenal by mutual consent. This enabled him to sign for São Paulo in 2013 on a free transfer. Since then, he has made 17 league appearances for the team, but he is yet to open his account.
"Benfica are interested, my lawyer is talking, do not know what are Paul decided. Benfica is a great club, but now I prefer to leave to my lawyer so he decides the best way possible. My focus is on the pitch, in São Paulo. I want to regain my space and more opportunities to really show my worth. I do not know what the São Paulo also decided or is talking. Benfica is a big club is interested, but I try with my lawyer, so solve as best as possible. My focus at the moment is to have more opportunities to show my worth," said the midfielder.

Walter Mazzarri has extended his contract with Inter Milan as the Italian coach will remain in charge of the club at least until 2016. The president of Inter Milan, Erick Thohir revealed his satisfaction concerning their decision of keeping the tactician for a longer period of time.
Erick Thohir said in a statement of Inter Milan's website: ''We're very happy to have extended our coach's contract. With this extension we have made it clear that Mazzarri is a cornerstone of our project. I'm confident with the hard work and dedication he has shown he'll achieve great things at this club''
The Italian club is undergoing a series of changes as Javier Zanetti was recently announced to be the new vice-president of the club after spending 19 years as a player of Inter Milan while Nemanja Vidic was also unveiled as one of the latest reinforcements for the team of Mazzarri.
Nemanja Vidic arrived to San Siro on a free transfer after playing 8 seasons with the Premier League club Manchester United and even at his 32 years of age, the Serbian defender is looking forward to new challenges in his career and this is one of the main reasons on why he decided to make a move to a new league and club.
''I don't think this is a step backwards in my career, I believe this is a step forward for me. Italian football suits my game well and, as I said before, I have joined one of the big European clubs. English football is different to Italian but that doesn't mean that Italian is simpler'' Vidic said during his first press conference as a player of Inter Milan.
Walter Mazzarri and Erick Thohir are hoping that with the arrival of Nemanja Vidic and a few other players will help Inter Milan in their upcoming season will be a better one then their previous campaign where they only managed on securing the 5th spot the squad received a large amount of criticism for inconsistent performances throughout the entire season.

Does the stupid hemp for victory at the end have to be there. geez! I'm for legalization of hemp but to tag it at the end of such a great comment is just out of place and it does Ron Paul a huge disservice when he is trying to be taken serious. People need to grow up!

Is aging a "fact of life"? or is it a consequence of the way one lives?Scientology Founder L. Ron Hubbard found that much of what we consider "aging" is not just the inevitable consequence of advancing years. Rather, it is a function of one's attitude, as he stated in this excerpt of a recorded lecture on April 3, 1962."The way an individual ages, the way he dies, is to give up his power of observation and his power of decision, and acts on the basis that he cannot do as much as he used … [Read more...]

There certainly is a lot of debate in Congress as well as small town America about the challenge of reforming healthcare/health insurance in the United States today. An impression that I continue to find missed in the popular media is regarding individual choice by consumers and patients to control our own healthcare outcomes and costs. There is a division that seems to be forming in these discussions about the level of control by the government over these choices, which may impact our healthcare decisions.
A motorcycle accident two miles north of Raywick left a Hodgenville man dead Monday afternoon.
According to Kentucky State Police, at approximately 3:20 p.m., 61-year-old Lennie Vincent was traveling north on KY 527 on a 1995 Kawasaki motorcycle when he failed to negotiate a curve. The motorcycle traveled straight through the curve at the intersection of Brown Mattingly Road and KY 527, off the roadway and struck a barbed wire fence.
Vincent was not wearing a helmet and was thrown from the motorcycle. He was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.

County sets property tax rate
The Marion County High School girls golf team may be 0-1 in match play so far but Head Coach Danny McFall isn't fazed.
After all, their only match of the year came against the team that finished fourth in the state last year and lost no players to graduation.
The Lady Knights played well at Rosewood Golf Course on Thursday night but not well enough to beat a state title contender. Marion County fell to Green County 186 to 167.
McFall said Green County's top four scores were in the high thirties and low forties.

The Marion County High School boys golf team battled some of the state's best teams this week and came out with only a few scratches.
Head Coach Freddie Leathers sent his team into the fray this week in two tough tournaments (Danville Invitational, Taylor County Cardinal Classic) and competed in match play against local rivals such as Taylor, Campbellsville and Washington County.
