There are some players whose signings with the Red Sox lead to skepticism about whether they can handle the unique challenges of playing in Boston. John Lackey is not such a player.
The new Sox starter, after all, has never been one to shy from a challenge. That has been apparent since his first days as a professional.
In 1999, Lackey — after the Angels selected him in the second round of that draft out of the University of Texas at Arlington — made his pro debut with Boise of the Short Season Northwest League. His manager there was Tom Kotchman.
Kotchman (the father of Red Sox first baseman Casey Kotchman) was in his 17th year as a manager. Though Lackey was not a one-of-a-kind phenomenon, he came close. In demeanor, the 20-year-old Lackey gave Kotchman his first reminder of a pitcher whom he'd worked with in his first year as a minor league skipper for the Red Sox' Single-A affiliate in Winter Haven as a 26-year-old in 1983.
That is because Lackey became the second pitcher ever to refuse to give the ball to Kotchman when he came to take it from him. The first was a young Roger Clemens, who had his pro unveiling with Kotchman's Winter Haven club in 1983, after the Sox drafted him with their first-round pick.
"These two guys both told me they weren't coming out of the game," Kotchman said. "So, you sort of do a Chevy Chase, where you take a quick look at the Grand Canyon, and you turn around and go back to the dugout. You go, 'OK — sounds good to me.' Still, to this day, those are the only two guys who told me that. It wasn't fluff. They meant it. 'I ain't coming out.' "
Kotchman suggests that Lackey's craving to compete was as great as that of anyone else he's ever managed, including Clemens. Kotchman received further evidence of that notion when, toward the end of the year, at a time when first-year players run on fumes and see their velocity diminish, Lackey was entrusted with a game in the Northwest League pennant race.
"All of a sudden," recalled the manager, "here comes a few more bolts in his fastball."
Lackey's velocity ticked up in key games at the end of the season, giving Kotchman the sense that he had a pitcher who could respond to the magnitude of his challenge. That, in turn, led to a sense of comfort from Kotchman and the Angels organization three years later.
Lackey was a 23-year-old rookie who debuted at the end of June 2002. He immediately became a key member of the rotation for the Halos in their pennant race, and he continued to take the ball into the postseason.
As much as that playoff run served as a coming out party for Francisco Rodriguez, Lackey was no less impressive. He started his postseason career with 10 straight scoreless innings, forged a 2.42 ERA that October, and had no fear when presented with the assignment of starting Game 7 of the World Series for the Angels.
"I remember it like it was yesterday, being in the Angels' player parking lot, waiting for John after Game 6, with some of his childhood friends from Texas," recalled Steve Hilliard, Lackey's agent. "He came out of the clubhouse in the player's parking lot. He looked at us and said, 'Scioscia's giving me the ball for Game 7.'
"When John said it, he was so fired up about that opportunity. He's fearless. He's absolutely fearless. There wasn't any doubt in his mind that he was going to go out there the next day and get it done."
For a different player, an organization might have had considerable pause about giving such an assignment to a rookie, for whom a struggle could jeopardize his development. But the Angels, based on the makeup reports that started with Kotchman in Boise about Lackey throughout his minor league career, had no such reservations.
The Halos were duly rewarded for their bold trust in the rookie. Lackey allowed one run on four hits in five innings the next day, becoming the second rookie in big league history (and first since Babe Adams in 1909) to start and win a Game 7.
Since then, despite a modest postseason record (1-4 since 2005, albeit with a solid 3.40 ERA), Lackey has made a regular show of his ferocious intensity in Octobers for the Angels. Most recently, there were the images of him during this year's playoffs. He dominated the Red Sox in Game 1 of the ALDS, and then, in Game 5 of the ALCS against the Yankees, he nearly refused to leave a game when Los Angeles skipper Mike Scioscia pulled him amidst a shutout with two outs in the seventh.
Lackey repeatedly informed his manager, "This is mine; this is mine," trying his best not to relinquish the ball. The outburst was, of course, familiar to Kotchman, and suggested that more than 10 years after his pro debut, Lackey's competitive spirit remains undiminished. Hilliard agreed.
"This year in the playoffs in the game against the Yankees when he did not want to give the ball up, for a lot of people who hadn't seen John, that was their glimpse at how fierce a competitor he is," said Hilliard. "He wants to finish what he starts. He's old school. He's a tough, hard-nosed, fierce competitor. He's all about winning. That is what matters most to John. … That's how John is every time he takes the ball."
That personality is part of what drew Lackey to Boston. In Fenway Park, the pitcher saw a chance to stoke his competitive flames.
"I enjoy pitching in big games," Lackey said at his press conference. "It's going to be like a playoff game pretty much every night here. … That's going to be a fun environment to be in."
The Sox, in the words of general manager Theo Epstein, consider Lackey a "big-game pitcher, a top-of-the-rotation guy and a really tough competitor." They were initially surprised by and skeptical of the pitcher's interest in Boston, but the more Hilliard made his case, the more convincing the notion of a fit became. Ultimately, Epstein said, Lackey's pronounced desire to experience the intensity of Boston "got our attention in a hurry."
Granted, it is talent — rather than a big-game history — that serves as the primary decision-making factor when the Sox pursue players. After all, Jason Bay's excellent performance as a member of the Red Sox came without any prior exposure to the environment that he encountered in Boston.
Nonetheless, the fact that Lackey had a demonstrated ability to compete in the most scrutinized circumstances, and that he had shown the sort of competitive chops to step up to a new challenge, only enhanced his potential fit with the Sox.
There are plenty of elements for a club to be concerned about when signing a pitcher to an $82.5 million deal. For the Sox and Lackey, the idea that the pitcher might wilt in Boston is not one of them.

Product Formulation Change

Posted by Reviewer2385733 on Oct 01, 2012
Purchased at iHerb
The ingredient panel for the product I received last week contains benzyl alcohol pretty high up on the list and other changes that are not apparent on this website (since 9/18/2012, the date of my order). I'm not planning to use this item anymore since this type of alcohol can be very drying to hair. Anyway, the previous formula coated my hair - giving it a kind of waxy feeling that was acceptable only because I was experimenting with it as a co-wash product that was inexpensive, somewhat natural with key extracts for healthy hair and scalp and felt that the resulting "weight" was okay for my hair style. I wasn't too worried about the DMDM hydantoin (softener/perservative) or phenoxyethanol (preservative) that was used as a preservative in the prior formula. Wish they could find a way to make it with all the extracts and without the benzyl alcohol.Oh well, - inexpensive, somewhat natural, has some key (ayurvedic) ingredients such as buruti oil, capuaca butter, alma and ylang ylang oil, and other extracts, but not for me anymore. Don't think it helped at all with color retention. iherb offered to refund my purchase cost, but the shipping cost to return the item was almost as much as the purchase price!

If you color with henna you know it doesn't last anywhere near as long as regular hair dye. This conditioner does help keep the color longer. I mix it in with my favorite conditioner.
very good conditioner

I need to branch a certain statement in a precompiled-header .h file, based on whether the .h is now being used to create the PCH (i.e., included in a cpp compiled with /Yc), or now included just to use the PCH (i.e., included in a cpp compiled with /Yu).
In other words, I'm looking for something like -
#ifdef NOW_CREATING_THE_PCH
#import yadayada_with_option_a
#import yadayada_with_option_b
...and can't find anything. Any ideas would be appreciated!
[Edit:] The reason I need this is that I use Incredibuild, and have started getting this warning. Per the FAQ suggestion, I wish to #import with no_implementation during PCH creation, and with implementation_only during PCH usage.

As part of In the Air's intrepid art world coverage, we're continuing with our exciting new feature that answers the age-old question, "Is it an Onion article, or just the art world?" Because sometimes these headlines just seem too good to be true, but then they are, and that's even better. (Check out our last installment, regarding Maurizio Cattelan's recent show at Artissima, titled "Shit and Die.") Today, however, we're here to talk about the fact that Italian performance artist Sven Sachsalber will spend two days trying to find a needle in a haystack at the Palais de Tokyo — literally. Repeating a performance held at London's Limoncello Gallery in 2012, the artist will spend from noon through midnight sifting through a large pile of straw, looking for a needle that has been placed therein; though the performance is only billed to last for 48 hours, the museum acknowledges that it may well take longer.

Original Batmobile for Sale (DC Geeks, Start Your Engines)
Luxury car auctions may not quite be everyone's bag, but a lot going up at Heritage Auctions in Dallas on December 6 should snag some serious attention, if only because, you guys — you guys — it's the Batmobile. As in, the Batmobile — the first-known DC Comics–licensed model from 1963, even predating the version that appeared on the Batman TV show in 1965. (Apparently, it was built by an independent mechanic just for kicks in his New Hampshire garage, before a DC-affiliated dairy company leased it and toured from town to town to promote Batman-themed fruit drinks.) Okay, sure, it may not be that high-tech, Hum-Vee-esque, explodes-into-a-motorcycle deal Christian Bale drives in The Dark Knight, but given its recently restored swooping black exterior, complete with red accenting, the swank factor is high. So, for those DC enthusiasts holding onto some priceless first editions, this may be the time to hit eBay and drum up the estimated $500,000 needed for this pinnacle of vintage comics cred. If nothing else, you'd be ensured some sweet Caped Crusader–themed LARPing.
A Comprehensive Guide to Crying at Art Exhibitions
We've all been there: Much like Stendhal in Florence, intrepid art viewers have probably come across an artwork or two that moved us, perhaps even to tears, perhaps even in public. So, in an effort to address this phenomenon of museum waterworks, the Independent published an article titled "From Millet's 'The Angelus' to Rothko, why do some works of art make us cry?" For starters, author Philip Hook asserts that "People weep at concerts when listening to transcendent music; people weep watching films or reading sad books; but fewer tears are shed in front of works of visual art" — a thesis tested, we can only assume, by a series of field experts running control groups at each venue type, collecting specimens of the emitted eye-saline, and analyzing them for relative quotients of Sad. (The verdict? Rothkos. Everyone is just losing it over Rothkos.) Still, despite the case Hook ultimately makes for an upswing in art-related crying, and the increasing acceptance of such outward emotional expression overall, he also adds that "there remain some standards as far as art is concerned." To sum up, he drops the all-important question: "Which artists' work is it OK to be seen crying in front of, and which not?"
Hairy Job Opportunities With Melgaard's Studio
Hey kids! Are you underemployed and adventurous? Well then Bjarne Melgaard's studio has a job just for you! The dapper, disturbing Norwegian — a professional rocker of crazy tracksuits and Instagrammer of torture-porn imagery who also moonlights as an artist — is seeking an unpaid intern to "create large hair based sculpture and paintings" in collaboration with hairstylist Bob Racine. And while this gig doesn't offer any cash, Melgaard is dangling a rather attractive carrot before your uncompensated face: "Interns may receive a drawing by Bjarne Melgaard at the end of the project, provided the work was satisfactory" [emphasis added]. Who said the life of a recent art-school grad wasn't glamorous?
Portrait of the "It Girl" as a Young 19th-Century Woman
On November 19, Bonhams will auction off a miniature portrait of Harriet Rushout, daughter of the Baron Northwick of Northwick Park — AKA, one of "The Three Graces" when flanked by her famously fair sisters. A "celebrated society beauty," according to the lot write-up, Rushot was apparently considered something of an "It Girl" in her time — and looking at her picture, it's hard not to imagine she'd fit right in at any Manhattan VIP room this week. The artfully washed-out hair ornamented with a bandeau, the dark, Cara-Delvigne-ian brows — proof, just in case we ever needed more, that fashion is nothing if not cyclical. Really, though — even "Rushout" sounds like a club pseudonym. The painting is estimated to sell for £8,000 to £12,000 — but, as Ms. Rushot probably knew well, even a little buzz is priceless.
The First Digital Picture Was of A Baby — Because, Of Course
Today in "well, we expected as much" news, the Atlantic reported that the original digital image was, in fact, of a baby. While working with one of the first programmable computers at the National Bureau of Standards in 1957, scientist Russell Kirsch used a drum scanner to separate a picture of his son Walden into black and white squares, then translated those values into binary. And thus, the pixelated picture was born. We have yet to confirm, however, that the following images were of a cat, a sunset, and a cool-looking food arrangement.
See Snoop Dogg's Painting Process in This Ad for Happy Socks
"For many years in my life, I always felt like painting was something I wanted to do, but I never got a chance to do it," begins Snoop Dogg at the opening of a promotional video for his collaboration with Swedish company Happy Socks, due out on November 1. As part of their "Art of Inspiration" series, the company asked the hip hop legend to, in his words, "do my thing with canvas, paint, see what we come up with." (Note: Yes, this absolutely means high-end socks with pot leaves on them.) Though the collaboration was teased shortly thereafter, today the full video has been released via Dazed in all its just-under-4-minute glory, providing invaluable insights into Snoop's creative process.
Art World Drinks: A Matisse Cut-Outs Cocktail
Henri Matisse once said, "You study, you learn, but you guard the original naivete. It has to be within you, as desire for drink is within the drunkard or love is within the lover." On that note, and with the recent opening of MoMA's Matisse Cut-Outs show, we thought it was the perfect time to whip up a drink in honor of Henri.
Go to Cincinnati for FotoFocus, Stay for the Street Art
Last week, Cincinnati opened to a bevy of international artists and art tourists with the start of the city's second FotoFocus Biennial. Though the event itself promises plenty of exciting sights, with 50 participating local venues all dedicated to celebrating "lens-based art" throughout the month of October, newcomers to the city should also keep a lookout for some of the impressive mural work that graces its walls. Not that they'll have to look all that hard: Thanks to public arts organization ArtWorks, the streets of Cincinnati are covered in all kinds of painterly designs. Below is a small selection of some of the most eye-catching examples.
"Women Looking at Art" Tumblr Proves Women Look at Art
So we're not sure if you guys are aware, but women are doing things. Like, all the time. In all kinds of places, too — probably even in your very neighborhood. (Are you a woman reading this article right now? Case in point.) And still, we here in the Media tend to get very excited when women do these things that they do. Today, however, one Tumblr has soundly lapped us all in appreciating women and their various activities, and that Tumblr is called "Women Looking at Art." Want to guess what's in the pictures?

Lead Financial Planning Analyst Interview
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks – interviewed at Duke Energy in December 2012.
I applied for the job through the company website and was called for interview in about 2 weeks. The interview was conducted by the hiring managing and her late arriving pen-tapping manager in a small cramped conference room with no windows. It was a rushed 35 minutes even though they said it would be 45 minutes. The questions were all behavioral based and did not relate to my personal experiences. They were intended to reveal weaknesses. I am a bit of a perfectionist and very good at what I do. I was an outstanding candidate for the job but the interview made me look inadequate because I couldn't relate the stories of failure and how I handled it that they wanted to hear.

Hallmark writes 'gay' out of Christmas classic
Greeting card giant Hallmark said Thursday that it shouldn't have changed the lyrics to "Deck the Halls" on a new holiday ornament that stirred a backlash from customers online.
Greeting card giant Hallmark said Thursday that it shouldn't have changed the lyrics to "Deck the Halls" on a new holiday ornament that stirred a backlash from customers online.
The Kansas City, Mo.-based company has been defending itself after it began selling a miniaturized version of a tacky holiday sweater that changes the lyrics to the holiday carol. The ornament removes the word "gay" and emblazons the sweater with the phrase: "Don we now our FUN apparel!"
Critics took to Twitter and Hallmark's Facebook page, accusing the company of making a political statement by using the word "fun" to replace "gay." Some Facebook commenters said they would never again buy Hallmark merchandise and that the change amounted to the company rewriting Christmas classics in the name of political correctness. Others suggested removing the word "gay" demonstrated a homophobic bias.
The company initially responded by saying the multiple meanings attached to the word "gay" meant the sweater's lyrics would be "open to misinterpretation."
"The trend of wearing festively decorated Christmas sweaters to parties is all about fun, and this ornament is intended to play into that, so the planning team decided to say what we meant: 'fun.' That's the spirit we intended and the spirit in which we hope ornament buyers will take it."
The company updated its statement Thursday, saying it was surprised by the public's response and that it now realized it shouldn't have changed the lyrics.
"We've been surprised at the wide range of reactions expressed about the change of lyrics on this ornament, and we're sorry to have caused so much concern," the statement read. "We never intend to offend or make political statements with our products and in hindsight, we realize we shouldn't have changed the lyrics on the ornament."
But Hallmark spokeswoman Linda Odell said the company has no plans to stop selling the ornament.

I just bought a new Maytag dishwasher and I'm installing it myself -- a stubborn young fool. My old dishwasher had been refigured with a plug into an outlet behind the diswasher (we have a 190 hot water dispenser also-- that is the reason for the outlet).
Is it easy to convert a dishwasher from a hardwire to a plug in??? Can I buy a power cord that I could connect to the wiring of the dishwasher?? I don't want to lose the outlet behind the dishwasher as we want to keep the 190 hot water dispenser.
It's definetly a learning curve when you buy a new home.

Proponents of Canada's Keystone XL pipeline might be scratching their heads raw this week wondering how they got 59 per cent support in a U.S. congressional vote and still didn't get a pipeline law.
Republicans are promising they will quickly resurrect Keystone XL pipeline legislation killed by Democrats when they take control of the U.S. Senate next year, potentially setting up an early 2015 veto confrontation with President Barack Obama.
Because U.S. President Barack Obama will have to make a decision about the Keystone XL oil pipeline as early as this week, his comments on the hotly debated project tend to get plenty of scrutiny.
The woman who almost forced U.S. President Barack Obama to make a decision on the Keystone XL pipeline stood quietly on the Senate floor as her plans went down in flames Tuesday.
A runoff election in Louisiana is propelling Keystone XL legislation to the United States Senate floor Tuesday.
The U.S. House of Representatives has approved the controversial Keystone XL oil pipeline from Alberta to Texas, but critics say Friday's vote was nothing more than "political theatre" since President Barack Obama has the final say.
The wild and unexpectedly speedy ride of Keystone XL legislation through the U.S. Congress late Wednesday had supporters of Canadian oil hopeful of a celebratory end to the project's six years of stagnation.
There are new threats of lawsuits against Canadian oil pipeline projects in the United States, suggesting that the election of an oil-friendly, Republican-dominated Congress won't end the industry's battles here.
Music icon Neil Young says Canadians need to stand up for clean air, land and water by taking on big oil companies because issues involving pipelines are 'scabs on our lives.'
The White House says it would be willing to consider a bill authorizing construction of Canada's Keystone XL pipeline, should the new Republican-dominated U.S. Congress produce such legislation.
Republicans' resounding victory gives them an opportunity to push legislation that's been bottled up in the Democratic Senate, from targeting elements of U.S.President Barack Obama's health care law to constructing the Keystone XL oil pipeline to rolling back environmental regulations.

Flooding in Gainsborough continues to keep long-term care residents at the Gainsborough Health Centre from returning to the facility, according to a press release by the Sun Country Health Region.
After the village flooded in late June, 13 long-term care residents were moved to facilities in Weyburn, Carlyle, Oxbow and Carnduff. Two residents and two respite patients returned temporarily to their families.
Facility manager Donna Davis said the town's sewer system is still overwhelmed, and water use is being rationed. Although pumping has improved at the health centre, the town's situation makes it impossible to determine how long the health centre will remain closed.
Davis said the health care and medical needs of the long-term care residents are being met at their temporary homes. Family members of the Gainsborough Health Centre's evacuated residents should contact the temporary homes to arrange for services like hair cuts.
The facilities will be happy to accommodate them.
"It is unfortunate that our residents had to be moved out of their familiar surroundings during this emergency, but families can be assured they are receiving the best care in their temporary new locations," said Davis.
Residents are included in all activities at the new facilities, and seem very contented, said Davis, who has had the opportunity to visit with most of them in their temporary homes. Residents can stay in their new accommodations until Gainsborough's health centre reopens, she said.

with this collected html sites i developed operation clearing 8) thanks to all who have written their knowledge down and shared it to the comunity. i...
new crygame.dll in download section, what is new and for what is needed: read my post in the specific doawnload, its basically a ironaiming angle fix, so that everyone can create his own ironaiming.
two new pictures posted. epic new yawdrop video with a real new gameplayelement will follow later, in few days, need some additionall mapdesign and a little more coding. sorry for that.
i'm looking forward to THAT video.! :)
in meantime fasten your seatbelt, have finished the code some minutes ago, have now to add a little HUD grafix and a little demomission for the video :)
i do...this is gonna be good.
Does this mod have high-tech areas similar to Far Cry? As well as overall how's the progress of your great mod? Just a quick sitrep you know. :)
ok, hud finished, now i need some sounds for :) but this should be done very quickly, because its my profession ^^
about high tech areas: first i wanted to say no, but then i remember i have a secret level which have some kind of hightech area. but 90% of the mod itself is outdoor and free sandbox playing. the progress of the mod: its already in a fullplayable and working state and i swear: everytime if i wanted to test only if a sound or a door is working, i play atleast 45 minutes at minimum because i cant stop ^^ and i have played it thousend times ^^ and only ONE (!) little area of the map... the new "thing" i was talking about i have coded last two weeks, will also expand the gameplay time and possibilities A LOT. i currently thinking about to restrict that cool feature to the third and highest difficulty level.
speaking of 'Sounds' i had extracted all sound files of Far Cry a while ago, so if you would like to have them just gimme shout, okay?
i just do hope that secret level is at least 1 hour of the gameplay and it's better be a hightech area. :)
Had the thought about public betatesting your game crossed your mind?
As far as that cool thingie is concerned i can't wait to find out what it is. seriously i am curious. :)
Do you know how to mix music? If you don't mind my asking.
In the future keep up the good work and best wishes. :)
i design all sounds bymyself, but thanks for your offers :) as i said its my profession in real life ;)
about the hightech level: the spirit of opcl is openworld and sandbox, so i dont invest to much time in closed tunelrat shooter style, but i can tell you that this specific level is a horror-type level :)
Do you make music for request?
Well we shall see. :)
If you need any kind of tester just let me know.
> Do you make music for request?
yes, its my job :)
> If you need any kind of tester just let me know.
there will be a open betatest very soon, i will pm all active posters with a downloadlink.
