On Friday afternoon, the Lakers Twitter account was taken over by new head coach Byron Scott for a Q/A session with fans using the #AskByron hashtag. The new Los Angeles skipper took questions for close to an hour. Here are the ten best responses from Scott:

NBA Rookies do AMA on Reddit; Lakers rookie Julius Randle does not disappoint
The NBA rookie class participated in an AMA on Reddit Sunday (for those non-Redditors, AMA stands for Ask Me Anything) and a couple questions asked were answered by Lakers rookie Julius Randle, who stole the thread.
Randle took questions on Rookie of the Year awards, his NBA 2K rating and playing with Kobe Bryant.
Los Angeles Lakers bring in free agent forward Michael Beasley for a workout Wednesday
Reports by ESPN and confirmed by the L.A. Daily News have stated that the Los Angeles Lakers brought in free agent forward Michael Beasley for a workout Wednesday at the team's practice facility in El Segundo.
Byron Scott has high praise for Lakers lottery pick Julius Randle
With Byron Scott now the head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers, the former member of the Showtime Lakers gets the chance to coach one of the best players in NBA history in Kobe Bryant.
But he also gets to coach on the most talented young prospects in the league in lottery pick and power forward Julius Randle. At Scott's introductory press conference on Tuesday, Scott was asked his thoughts on the promising Randle and gave a flattering review:
New Lakers head coach Byron Scott thinks current roster can be competitive
The Los Angeles Lakers didn't exactly hit the home runs they were hoping for in free agency after going after superstars LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony and ultimately losing out to Cleveland and New York.
But the roster additions they were able to make, which include Jeremy Lin, Carlos Boozer and Ed Davis, were enough to have new head coach Byron Scott excited. Continue reading
Magic Johnson discusses how he would do if he played in today's NBA
Magic Johnson got riled up by one student asking a question during his talk at Long Beach State University Monday evening. How does he think he would do if he played in the NBA today?
"If I played in this era, it would be over," said Johnson. "See right now, there is no hand check. Back in my day, you could hand check. You could hard foul. They got private planes now. We had to take commercial and we were still winning 62 games. And all they do is shoot jumpers today too."
"Don't get me started, I'm sweating like I'm getting ready to play."
While Johnson said he would thrive in today's scoring friendly game, he offered up a couple players that could play in his NBA era. Those names included Lakers star Kobe Bryant and the Heat's LeBron James.
"Could you imagine Michael Jordan with no hand checking? Larry Bird?" said Johnson.
At that point, Johnson went back on stage to demonstrate his rivalry with Bird and Jordan and their notorious trash talking. He showed the crowd how Bird would call his shots and ask why Johnson was bothering trying to stop his shot, moments before sinking the attempt. Or the time the Celtic great asked his peers during a three-point shooting contest who was coming in second because he was taking first.
"Larry Bird was unbelievable, up here with this," said Johnson, pointing to his head. "That's why Kobe is so dominate. He's got game but his basketball IQ is off the charts."
Magic Johnson said buying Clippers would be personal battle due to Lakers allegiance
Lakers great Magic Johnson spoke to students at Long Beach State University Monday evening, giving life and business advice to the sold out crowd, which was closed off to the public. And two students were able to ask a very candid question: Is Magic interested in buying the Clippers?
"I don't know what me and my group are going to do," said Johnson in response. "But I will say this, 20 people have already called me interested in partnering up with me, so money will not be an option."
When the initial question was asked, many cheered. But there were some boos (presumably from the many Lakers fans in the crowd). Johnson also admitted it would be a "battle for him personally" to pursue the Clippers' purchase given his allegiance to the Lakers.
"I really truly love the Lakers," said Johnson. "I am a Laker. So that will be interesting."
Johnson, who has admitted he would love to own an NBA franchise, has been rumored to be eying the Clippers, hoping to be add to his Southern California empire that includes the Dodgers and the L.A. Sparks. Johnson also said during the talk that he would love to bring the NFL back to L.A.
His interest comes in the wake of Donald Sterling's lifetime ban from the NBA for his racist comments, which mentioned Johnson.
"It's a sad day. Racism. Discrimination. It's why we still have to go through that, 'Here we are in 2014," said Johnson. "While I was upset, I feel sorry for him, living in the past. It's just uncalled for."
The Lakers' great reminded the audience that the Clippers are not actually for sale as of yet, with the NBA owners still needing to vote Sterling out. Johnson figured that sale would not happen for another eight months to a year.
"There is no way that man walks away without a battle," said Johnson.
The notion of buying the Clippers came up earlier in the event, when a audience member shouted it out during a pause in questions. The room, and Johnson, burst into laughter. But there were still some boos.
"Don't do it," someone shouted.
Magic Johnson reflects on final moment with late Lakers owner Jerry Buss
Magic Johnson's talk with Long Beach State University students at the Carpenter Performing Arts Center on Monday night was a night filled with laughs and that trademark Magic smile.
But there were also tear-jerking moments.
Johnson was asked in the early portion of the Q/A what marked his favorite moment with former Lakers owner Dr. Buss, who passed away last year in February. Johnson said there was too many to choose from, but ultimately decided on his final moment with Buss.
The former Lakers great told the crowd the story of when he went to visit Buss in the hospital, being told by Buss' daughter, Jeanie, that he was not doing very well.
"I went into the hospital room and he just perked up. And we just started talking about the run that we had, all the championships and all the moments we had together. We sat there for hours, just talking and laughed. And I was thanking him for being a father figure," said Johnson. "And I knew I was saying goodbye. So I held his hand and we got a chance to reminisce and talk about how we built the Lakers to what they are today.
"When we left each other we both just started crying, because we knew that was going to be the last time for both of us."
Magic Johnson picks Michael Jordan over Kobe Bryant; offers high praise of Bryant
During the Q/A portion of Magic Johnson's "Evening With" series at Long Beach State University Monday evening, the former Lakers great was asked to choose between Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant.
"Jordan over Kobe, even though I like Kobe a lot and Kobe is my man," said Johnson. "But Michael Jordan never lost a Finals. Six trips and 6-0."
"I love Kobe, but he is not Michael. But he's the closest to (him) that we have ever seen. Kobe got game."
Even though he called it an "easy" decision to pick Jordan over Bryant, Johnson did not hesitate to offer high praise of the Lakers superstar, who missed the majority of the season with knee injuries.
"I hope that (Kobe) is healthy so he can lead our Lakers back," said Johnson. "He's on my Mount Rushmore. He is unreal. Think about his mindset and attitude and how he can just do it night in and night out. That's one thing great about Kobe. I love him."
Johnson was also asked to choose between LeBron James and Kevin Durant. He said that was also an easy choice to make, seeing as James can beat an opponent in so many ways. But Johnson called Durant the MVP this season.
Reserve center Chris Kaman to fill in for doubtful Pau Gasol (vertigo) vs. Knicks after long drought in playing time
Chris Kaman will make his return to court for the Lakers and he isn't even injured. Kaman, whose time on the court has ranged from starting to not playing a minute, will fill in for Pau Gasol against the Knicks, who is listed as doubtful with vertigo.
These will be the first meaningful minutes for the center in 12 games, seeing as he has only played four minutes combined in those dozen games. Kaman has currently gone 10-straight games without playing a single minute, which is the longest stretch this season for him. Prior to the playing time drought, Kaman was averaging 23.7 minutes in a 10-game stretch.
But that hot and cold situation with Kaman's minutes does not worry D' Antoni and his center's ability to contribute after a long lull.
"I've always had confidence in him," said D' Antoni. "I think he's played well, but obviously that position is a little weird and Jordan Hill you want to get him a lot of time. So it's either very short minutes for him or he starts, and he's a much better starter.
"It's not his fault, it's just the way it works out."
Kaman declined to speak with media after the morning shoot around.

Bought this collection and have been so pleased with the results we have had so many painted ladies ( counted 7 at one time on the three plants) we have had the odd peacock and a couple of red admirals which I can't remember the last time I saw one of these I also did not realise the amount of different vareity of bees there are? they were really interested especially the ivory variety has (I think ) a lovely honey scent. The only problem we did have was not getting the sky blue plant only the magenta, ivory and what look likes dark blue/magenta which has grown really flat, I did report this and they are replacing - BUT WELL WORTH BUYING
Thank you for your review. I hope we can continue to be of service.

Delightful bomb proof plants that I bought for dry problem areas in my garden. They are a distinct improvement on older varieties. The flowers are vividly coloured and produced over a very long period throughout the summer and into early autumn. They are larger than the T&M description in my garden.
Thank you for your review. I hope we can continue to be of service.

Aurora Cruise Review by cdrennan: What a let down!

What a let down!
Please watch out for upgrade. The cabin we had chosen suited us but we were upgraded without our consent. The cabins that are avoided by the informed include the noisiest. From joggers allowed from 4 am jumping on the roof to parties raising the roof till midnight just outside the door is not conducive to sleep. It was hell for us for the thirty nights aboard. Not much use complaining because the staff from the top down live on another planet. Those who think the food is good do not know what fresh fruit and vegetables are. The room steward seemed to be the only person who knew about cleanliness. The Orangery staff wafted around grabbing plates before one was finished the excuse for food served. In the dining room the waiters did not use handkerchiefs etc. but the back of hands or sleeves which was a little off putting. There was always staff standing around doing little. On other ships the cleaning was much more thorough with stairs being cleaned regularly. The entertainment was More
limited, repetitive and not always interesting. We learnt our lesson and will head back to Princess or Cunard and leave the UK P&O to those who know no better. Less

When I was younger before I could carry I got guns pulled on me twice in similar circumstances. 1st situation we were driving behind this guy with his wife and kid in the car, the wife keeps glaring at us so I flip her off (this was when I was young and stupid) the guy in the car slams on his brakes and my friend who was driving swerves around them and then they start following us. My friends car was a lot faster than theirs so we got away from them after a few blocks and turns. We got to our location and did our business and while we were walking back to the car the same people pull up and stopped and the guy says "you driving like that with my kid in the car is like having a gun pointed at you" then he pulls out a gun and points it at me and my friend, then says some other choice words and takes off. We didn't do any driving that would endanger him, he was the one who had slammed on his brakes and then continued to chase us, if anyone he was the one clearly endangering his kid and wife. In this circumstance his kid was in the back seat, wife in the passenger seat, would you have pulled your gun and fired on him after he pulled his gun and pointed at you?
Second situation: I was driving and my friend was in the passenger seat. My friend told me the people in the other lane were his friends so I rolled my window down at pulled next to them at the stop light. It turned out that it wasn't his friends car, it was 3 hispanics in the car, one driving, one in passenger seat & one in the back. I just give them a head nod and a smile because I had already rolled my window down as to say something. The passenger says "it it funny, is it funny now bit*h" and pulls a gun and points it at my head. I believe I responded ya it is and then the light turned green and I turned right and they started to follow then they turned left at the next light. So would you have pulled out your gun and fired on them?
These 2 events occurred when I was 16 & 17, so I wasn't very leveled headed. What would you do in both of these situations? It's kind of a tough situation because of the other passengers.

Hurricane Isaac impacts Detroit Metro Airport travelers
Updated On: Aug 28 2012 08:40:06 PM EDT
Travelers can't fly to New Orleans from Detroit Metro Airport and travel to some other destinations has been disrupted because of the storm.
Isaac has forced the cancellation of more than 1,000 flights nationwide.
Major airlines are offering passengers opportunities to reschedule and rebook their flights without fees.
United Airlines is offering a full refund whether or not a flight was canceled.
Passengers can rebook anytime within a year of a purchased ticket and avoid any change fee by rebooking this year.
Delta Airlines customers can change their flights without charge fees by Sept. 5. Some fare differences may apply, depending on on fare class.
Southwest Airlines is requiring passengers to rebook within 14 days of the original date of travel. No change fees will apply, but passengers may need to pay for a difference in fare.
The Thomas family was heading from Metro Airport to Disney World in Florida.
Michael Thomas said he had been watching the progress of the tropical storm.
"I've been watching the news and the Weather Channel and trying to map it out and trying to see if it was going to go inland," Thomas said.
The family was relieved when Isaac moved to the west. Michael Thomas said young Madison would be able to get to Florida to see Mickey Mouse.
"Madison got a call from Mickey Mouse last night and he said he was waiting to see her, so that let us know that the boat was floating," Thomas said.
While the Thomas family will make their trip a scheduled, airlines are using their websites to keep passengers updated on changes prompted by the arrival of Hurricane Isaac.

You cannot judge someone based on one bad day in their life. All women - wives, mothers, daughters - have bad days, days when they struggle with marriages particularly, and trusting that God is holding your hand as you walk through it with Him, not alone, is an amazing solace. She is certainly not in an emotionally abusive relationship; read a few dozen of her posts and you'll see the pure joy that shines out of Ann.

Plus, I think most people forget that God wants us to be holy, not happy. Christians worship a man that was flogged, abused, tortured, and crucified. Not happy. But he was holy. And found happiness in his holiness.

Sometimes God works through counselors. I would hope that anyone dealing with what sounds like deep sorrow would talk to someone about how to fix things, and would talk to her husband about how they could fix their marriage, rather than just saying, "Oh, well, I guess this is what God wants, so I'd better make the most of it." Really, it made me incredibly sad.

And I would really hope that a woman in an emotionally abusive relationship would have the strength to realize that her Lord doesn't want someone to mistreat her, and that the solution isn't for HER to be a "door for joy to walk through," but for the abuser to stop the abuse. I mean, why use the word "doormat," if not because that's how she's been made to feel? And isn't that emotional abuse?

And this part? "Why did she read and think and have questions at all and why was this being a woman hard and could she even say that out loud?" This just sounds like something written by a sad woman whose husband is in the next room yelling, "Woman, make me a sandwich!" :-( And now I'm crying again because I just feel terrible for firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-797012052341217990.post-38111058436287507172013-01-21T10:20:02.424-08:002013-01-21T10:20:02.424-08:00i used to summer in il pellicano!! porto ercole is...i used to summer in il pellicano!! porto ercole is the post perfect place on earth!!!! it is a family tradition i hope to carry on- perfect family vacation spot!Stargazerhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-797012052341217990.post-19389450932417868732013-01-21T08:37:12.344-08:002013-01-21T08:37:12.344-08:00Can't wait to try it!

Results tagged ' Marlins '
12/14 Roundup
The Mariners have been one of the most aggressive teams this offseason, signing Robinson Cano to a massive contract, then adding two more power bats at this week's Winter Meetings, in Corey Hart and Logan Morrison.
But there still could be more moves on the horizon, and one in particular makes a lot of sense, writes our Richard Justice. He believes Seattle should beef up its offense further by adding free-agent Nelson Cruz.
In other news from around the league on Saturday:
- The Dodgers have filled the most significant hole in their lineup, agreeing to a two-year deal with free-agent third baseman Juan Uribe.
- The Marlins also held some interest in Uribe, so his signing leaves them looking at other options at third base, writes our Joe Frisaro.
- The Twins signed their third starting pitcher so far this offseason, agreeing to bring back righty Mike Pelfrey on a two-year deal. Minnesota, still looking to add another arm, is unlikely to sign Matt Garza but is open to Bronson Arroyo, according to a tweet from Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com and MLB Network.
- The Mets announced their two-year deal with Bartolo Colon, officially adding the 40-year-old to their starting rotation.
- The Braves could be close to signing free-agent right-hander Gavin Floyd, according to a report from The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Floyd, coming off Tommy John surgery, is expected to return to action in May.
- With free-agent second baseman Omar Infante set to sign with the Royals, the Yankees' interest in a trade for the Cubs' Darwin Barney "may pick up," according to a tweet from Bruce Levine of Chicago's WSRC-AM and 670thescore.com. The teams held earlier talks about Barney, Levine writes.
- The Royals signed three players, including reliever Cory Wade, to Minor League deals.
– Andrew Simon
12/13 Roundup
Baseball's Winter Meetings ended on Thursday, but that doesn't mean the Hot Stove came to a halt on Friday.
Even with general managers, agents and media members gone from Lake Buena Vista, Fla., the action continued, and the free-agent market continued to grow thinner. A pair of players reportedly agreed to new contracts, with first baseman James Loney set to return to the Rays on a three-year deal and second baseman Omar Infante heading to Kansas City on a four-year agreement.
In other news from around the league:
- The Yankees introduced new center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury, making his seven-year, $153 million contract official.
- Former Yankee Robinson Cano saw two pieces of lineup protection added to his new club, as the Mariners held an introductory press conference for Corey Hart and Logan Morrison. Those additions do not signal the end of Seattle's offseason shopping, however.
- The Rockies finalized their two-year agreement with first baseman Justin Morneau and also have reportedly signed lefty reliever Boone Logan to a three-year pact.
- The Red Sox made their two-year deal with Mike Napoli official. Teammate David Ortiz, whose contract with the Red Sox expires after the 2014 season, is looking for a one-year extension.
- The Pirates announced a pair of one-year contracts, re-signing shortstop Clint Barmes and adding right-hander Edinson Volquez.
- The Tigers announced their one-year agreement with reliever Joba Chamberlain.
- Our Paul Hagen runs down the top names still available after the Winter Meetings.
- With free-agent options dwindling, the Brewers could turn to the trade market to fill their need for a first baseman, our Adam McCalvy writes.
- Might the Braves really trade stud closer Craig Kimbrel? Our Mark Bowman tackles that question in his latest inbox article.
- Outfielder Jason Kubel, coming off a rough 2012 with the D-backs and Indians, is returning to the Twins after signing a Minor League deal with an invitation to Major League Spring Training.
- The D-backs signed right-hander Daniel Hudson and catcher Henry Blanco to Minor League deals with Spring Training invites. Hudson, who hasn't pitched since early '12 due to injury, was non-tendered earlier this month.
- The Marlins continue to have interest in free-agent third baseman Juan Uribe, writes our Joe Frisaro.

Cubs, Marlins swap outfielders
The Marlins have traded outfielder Justin Ruggiano to the Cubs for outfielder Brian Bogusevic.
Bogusevic played in 47 games with the Cubs last year, hitting .273 with seven doubles, six home runs and 16 RBIs. He began the year hitting .317 in 79 games with Triple-A Iowa after signing a minor league contract before the season.
Over his four-year MLB career, Bogusevic is a .236 hitter. He was drafted by the Astros in the first round (24th overall) of the 2005 Draft out of Tulane, where he was a first-team All-American as a pitcher. He converted to outfield in 2008.
Ruggiano has spent all or part of five MLB seasons with Tampa Bay and Miami, hitting .251 with 49 doubles, 37 home runs and 109 RBIs in 317 games. He hit .313 with 23 doubles, 13 homers and a .909 OPS in 91 games with Miami in 2012 then belted a career-best 18 homers and drove in 50 RBIs in 128 games last year. He has spent time at all three outfield positions.

Mariners sign Corey Hart, acquire Logan Morrison
The Mariners reached a deal with free agent first baseman-outfielder Corey Hart on Wednesday, our Greg Johns reports. The deal, which the team has not confirmed, won't be official until Hart completes a physical on Friday.
The deal is for one year, according to Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com and MLB Network.
Hart missed all of last season while recovering from knee surgery, but the 31-year-old, a nine-year veteran, had an .857 OPS for the Brewers from 2010-12, averaging 29 home runs and 83 RBIs.
Seattle also pulled off a trade for first baseman Logan Morrison, sending right-handed reliever Carter Capps to the Marlins.
Morrison also has battled injuries, playing a total of 178 games over the past two years. The 26-year-old left-handed batter hit .242/.333/.375 with six home runs in 333 plate appearances for Miami last season.
Capps, 23, had a 5.49 ERA in 53 appearances with the Mariners in 2013, striking out 66 in 59 innings.

12/11 Afternoon Roundup
No transactions went down on Wednesday morning, as the third day of the Winter Meetings got underway at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. But there are plenty of rumors and buzz going around. Here is a look at the latest:
- The agent for Rays left-hander David Price told Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com and MLB Network that his client wouldn't consider an extension with the Mariners if traded to Seattle but might do so with other, unspecified teams. Price has two seasons remaining before he hits free agency. Our Greg Johns calls Price and the Mariners "an extremely remote match."
- Free-agent outfielder Shin-Soo Choo could command a seven-year, $140 million deal, tweets USA Today's Bob Nightengale. The Mariners and Rangers are in the lead for his services, according to the New York Post's Joel Sherman.
- The Rangers are staying patient as they wait for asking prices to come down on the likes of Choo and Nelson Cruz, writes our T.R. Sullivan.
- The D-backs are in the market for a starting pitcher, Rosenthal tweets. ESPN's Jayson Stark mentions free-agent right-hander Matt Garza as a possibility.
- The Nationals' quest for a left-handed reliever could end soon, according to Rosenthal.
- Rosenthal also describes Reds second baseman Brandon Phillips as "in play" for trade talks.
- Our Carrie Muskat updates the Jeff Samardzija situation, as the Cubs explore a contract extension with the right-hander, who also has been involved in plenty of trade rumors this offseason.
- The Astros are one of the teams interested in often-injured former All-Star outfielder Grady Sizemore.
- The Marlins are listening to offers for outfielder Justin Ruggiano, writes our Joe Frisaro. They also have interest in outfielder Delmon Young, according to Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald.
- The Orioles have talked with free-agent reliever John Axford, tweets Jon Morosi of FOXSports.com.

12/7 Roundup
With Friday's flurry of big moves in the rearview mirror and the baseball world gearing up for the start of the Winter Meetings on Monday, the Hot Stove took a bit of a break on Saturday.
Here is a look at the latest news from around the league:
- The Yankees reached official agreements with two free agents, announcing their seven-year contract with outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury, as well as re-signing starting pitcher Hiroki Kuroda for one year.
After reportedly agreeing to a three-year deal with Carlos Beltran on Friday, the Yankees could be open to dealing from their outfield depth and are "receiving significant interest" in Brett Gardner, according to Andy McCullough of The Star Ledger.
Elsewhere in the American League East, the Red Sox announced their two-year deal with reliever Edward Mujica. Boston general manager Ben Cherington said that while he will continue to look for upgrades, the Sox likely are finished with their "heavy lifting." On the other hand, Dodgers outfielder Matt Kemp is "in play" for the Red Sox, according to The Boston Globe's Nick Cafardo.
Dodgers GM Ned Colletti confirmed that he is open to trading an outfielder, since the club has Kemp, Andre Ethier, Carl Crawford and Yasiel Puig.
Dodgers shortstop Hanley Ramirez, who could be in line for a contract extension this offseason, played a little joke via social media.
Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com and MLB Network lists the Dodgers, D-backs, Rangers and Mariners as the teams in the best position to make a trade for Rays ace left-hander David Price at the Winter Meetings. Among the other players Rosenthal believes could be moved this week in Orlando, Fla., are A's starting pitcher Brett Anderson, Angels second baseman Howie Kendrick, Phillies closer Jonathan Papelbon, Cubs starter Jeff Samardzija and Orioles catcher Matt Wieters.
The Astros bolstered their bullpen by bringing in right-hander Chad Qualls on a two-year deal.
During a question-and-answer session with fans at the second day of Redsfest, Cincinnati GM Walt Jocketty said it will be "very difficult" to re-sign free-agent outfielder Shin-Soo Choo and also downplayed trade rumors about second baseman Brandon Phillips.
With Beltran heading to the Yankees, the Royals will have to look elsewhere to add an impact bat this offseason. Another club that lost out on Beltran, the D-backs, could target the Angels' Mark Trumbo instead, according to USA Today's Bob Nightengale.
The Marlins could be looking to looking to trade for Rays utility man Sean Rodriguez as they aim to find a solution at third base. Our Joe Frisaro also explains why the Marlins are likely to trade first baseman-outfielder Logan Morrison.
The Orioles added an outfielder, signing Francisco Peguero, who had been designated for assignment and then non-tendered by the Giants. Peguero had been MLB.com's No. 98 overall prospect going into last season.
– Andrew Simon
Jones in, LoMo soon out in Miami?
Ken Rosenthal has reported the Marlins are close to signing first baseman/outfielder Garrett Jones to a deal in Miami, possibly setting off a domino effect of other moves. Rosenthal says it likely means Mike Napoli won't be coming to Miami, and there could be a deal imminent involving Logan Morrison.
Jones lost his job in Pittsburgh down the stretch last season to Justin Morneau (who is reportedly about to settle down in Denver), and then was let go this winter by the Pirates.

12/2 Roundup
The Nationals, looking to bounce back from last season's disappointing finish, had been quiet this offseason — until Monday. That's when general manager Mike Rizzo announced his entry into the Hot Stove conversation by pulling off a big trade with the Tigers.
Rizzo bolstered his rotation and replaced Dan Haren by acquiring another veteran right-hander, Doug Fister, in exchange for reserve infielder Steve Lombardozzi and young left-handers Ian Krol and Robbie Ray.
Monday also was the last day for teams to tender contracts to their arbitration-eligible players, with the deadline looming at midnight ET. Any non-tendered player immediately becomes a free agent and can sign with any club.
Among the players reportedly cut loose were pitchers John Axford of the Cardinals, Andrew Bailey of the Red Sox, Daniel Hudson of the D-backs, Jerome Williams and Tommy Hanson of the Angels, Jeremy Hefner of the Mets and Mitchell Boggs of the Rockies; catcher J.P. Arencibia of the Blue Jays; infielders Mat Gamel of the Cubs, Justin Turner of the Mets, Elliot Johnson and Paul Janish of the Braves, Jayson Nix of the Yankees and Chris Getz of the Royals; and outfielders Sam Fuld of the Rays and Ryan Kalish of the Red Sox.
In other news from around the league:
- The A's have added to their rotation by agreeing to a two-year deal with left-hander Scott Kazmir, who resurrected his career with the Indians this season.
- The A's also picked up a closer, with Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports and MLB Network reporting that they sent second baseman Jemile Weeks to the Orioles for Jim Johnson.
- The Blue Jays found a new starting catcher, agreeing to a two-year contract with free agent Dioner Navarro, who is coming off a strong offensive year with the Cubs.
- Speaking of catchers, the Pirates swapped backups for starter Russell Martin, acquiring defensive specialist Chris Stewart from the Yankees and designating Michael McKenry for assignment.
- The Yankees, meanwhile, announced their signing of slick-fielding shortstop Brendan Ryan to a two-year deal.
- New York also has made a one-year offer to right-hander Hiroki Kuroda, according to ESPN New York. Kuroda is deciding between retirement or playing another season in the Majors or in his native Japan.
- Free-agent outfielder Curtis Granderson could be an option for the Mets.
- Sources told The Boston Globe's Pete Abraham that free-agent catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia is unlikely to return to the Red Sox, with Rosenthal and others mentioning the Marlins among those currently in pursuit.
- Veteran utility man Willie Bloomquist is heading back to Seattle after three years with Arizona.
– Andrew Simon
11/25 Roundup
The Rangers officially introduced Prince Fielder on Monday, five days after acquiring the slugging first baseman from the Tigers for Ian Kinsler.
The move likely doesn't signify the end of the club's offseason maneuvering, however. Our T.R. Sullivan writes that while the Rangers are not expected to go after free-agent second baseman Robinson Cano, they are looking to add another impact bat to their lineup, either at the top or in the middle.
One of those available big bats belongs to free-agent outfielder Shin-Soo Choo. Speaking of Choo, our Mark Sheldon explores the question of whether the Reds could bring him back to Cincinnati, meeting his significant contract demands.
In other news from around the league:
- Veteran right-handed pitcher Dan Haren officially came off the board on Monday, when the Dodgers announced his one-year contract.
- After adding a center fielder (Peter Bourjos) and a shortstop (Jhonny Peralta) over the past week, Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak didn't close the door on his offseason shuffling but added that, "if the clock stopped today, we'd be pretty happy with our club."
- The Yankees' signing of free-agent catcher Brian McCann signals the club's aggressive intentions this offseason after falling short of the playoffs in 2013, writes MLB.com columnist Mike Bauman. Along those lines, a move for free-agent outfielder Carlos Beltran could be on the way.
- Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos addressed his team's search for a starting pitcher, most notably the Cubs' Jeff Samardzija.
- Veteran righty A.J. Burnett hasn't decided if he will pitch in 2014, but if he does, the market could push him out of the Pirates' price range.
- The Tigers and free-agent reliever Brian Wilson are in "serious" negotiations, a source has told The Detroit News. It appears that Wilson, and not Joe Nathan, is Detroit's primary target to fill its closer role.
- Elsewhere in the American League Central, The Kansas City Star reported that the Royals are open to dealing from their bullpen depth, especially righty Aaron Crow or lefty Tim Collins.
- There were a few minor trades executed on Monday, with the Padres swinging a three-player deal with the Pirates and swapping pitchers with the Orioles, while the A's picked up a left-hander from the Nationals. The Pirates also cleared 40-man roster space by designating first baseman-outfielder Garrett Jones for assignment.
- Our Doug Miller looks at what's left on the free-agent market in The Week Ahead.
- The Marlins are looking into signing catcher Dioner Navarro and pitcher Phil Hughes, according to the Miami Herald.

11/20 Roundup
The Hot Stove was cranked up to full blast on Wednesday night, thanks to a surprise exchange of All-Stars. In a deal first reported by CBSSports.com and later confirmed by the teams, the Tigers will send first baseman Prince Fielder to the Rangers for second baseman Ian Kinsler. Detroit also will include $30 million to help offset the disparity between the two players' remaining contracts.
Despite the move, the Rangers still want to add a free-agent hitter such as Brian McCann, Carlos Beltran or Nelson Cruz, according to Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com and MLB Network.
In other news from around the league:
- The Giants and left-handed reliever Javier Lopez are nearing an agreement on a new three-year contract.
- After losing Tim Hudson to San Francisco, the Braves are looking to add a veteran starting pitcher, writes our Mark Bowman. A trade for the Brewers' Kyle Lohse is one possibility.
- The Padres finalized their one-year pact with free-agent righty Josh Johnson.
- The Indians might have found a new right fielder in former Ranger David Murphy.
- The Marlins would like to add a few good bats this offseason, particularly at catcher and third base, our Joe Frisaro writes. But that's easier said than done, considering the high demand for such players.
- Our Todd Zolecki wonders if the Phillies have finished tinkering with their lineup after signing Carlos Ruiz and Marlon Byrd.
- The Orioles signed former Rockies reliever Edgmer Escalona to a one-year contract.
- Free-agent righty Dan Haren and the Dodgers have "mutual interest" as Los Angeles looks to add to its rotation, reports ESPN Los Angeles.
- The Royals have talked about pursuing A's left-hander Brett Anderson, according to ESPN's Buster Olney.
- The Mets are suffering from "sticker shock" as they evaluate the free-agent market this offseason, reports the New York Post.

For preschool kids, one of the biggest open-ended questions they can be asked is "what do you want to be when you grow up?" When asked this question, many preschool kids tend to shoot for the stars. However, this question can be an easy way to introduce a unit on occupations and community helpers, two subjects that can be explored though games, activities, crafts and even guest speakers.
The Helpers in the Community
It's important to teach preschool kids about the many tasks of community helpers, such as doctors, dentists, nurses, teachers, mail carriers, and police officers. Start by asking the children if they know any adults with these professions to see how much children know about the tasks associated with these various occupations.
When learning about doctors and nurses, try this fun craft called "Fix my Wound". For this craft, trace the outline of the child's arm or leg on a piece of paper. The children are to color or paint their limb including a small wound. Once the paint has dried, distribute band-aids to the children for them to place over the wounds on their crafts. Then, have each child present a story to the class as to how they got hurt and who helped them fix it.
Here's a craft where children make police badges that's perfect for learning about safety and the police. To begin the craft, cut out a number of badges from cardboard, and cover each badge with aluminum foil. Use stickers to decorate the badges, or try etching patterns into the foil with the stubby end of a paintbrush.
There are also a number of fun games for preschool kids to learn about the objects and tasks associated with various community helpers. First, cut out a number of pictures from magazines that are associated with community helpers, such as letters, stethoscopes, toothbrushes, or fire hydrants. Next, place a picture of each community helper on the wall and have the children match the objects to the corresponding person from the community.
"Special Delivery!"
Here's another fun matching game that's perfect for practicing what it might be like to deliver mail. Cut out a large number of different colored shapes, like triangles, circles, stars, and squares. Gather an equal number of mailboxes to the number of shapes, and label each mailbox with a picture of one of the shapes. Give the shapes to the children to place in the corresponding mailboxes. After all the shapes have been delivered, try the exercises again by sorting the deliveries by color instead of by shape.
Finally, here's a matching game that teaches children good nutritional habits, which can be played in conjunction with learning about oral hygiene and dentists. Place two large teeth on the wall. One tooth should be white and sparkling clean while the other is covered with dirt and plaque.
Next, hold up a series of pictures of foods, both good and bad, and have children decide which food goes with which tooth. This last exercise in this preschool kids series can also be performed with real food, as long as there aren't too many examples of bad food!

Tonya C. from Haleigh-Claire's Cupcakery Posted on 03/18/2014
I normally have a pretty tough time getting my cupcake liners to stick completely to the cupcake. This is mostly because I like to make my cupcakes moist, but these liners stood up to the challenge pretty well. Definitely the best bargain for this many liners!
Jamihla F. Posted on 01/26/2014
Can't beat the price on these liners. Good size, quality paper. Seperate easily so you arent wasting the liners when they dont seperate easily. Value is great!

Why We Need to Defeat Cholera
Access to safe water and basic sanitation has been on the U.N.'s books as a fundamental right since 2010, but there are more tangible reasons that inadequate access to sanitation is an issue.
Middle East; Iraq; Ebola
Middle East: During the last 48 hours of the continued ceasefire, humanitarian workers have delivered food to hundreds of thousands of people, repaired water and sanitation infrastructure, re-stocked medical supplies, and some of the 520,000 displaced Palestinians have returned to their homes. However, UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator remarked the scale of needs remains "unprecedented in the Gaza Strip."
Middle East; Ebola; South Sudan
Middle East: At today's informal session of the General Assembly on Gaza the SG remarked that the most recent ceasefire has held since yesterday at 8 a.m. local time. He noted that a durable ceasefire is necessary and UN shelters must continue to remain safe zones. The SG thanked UN staff in Gaza and will fly the UN flag at half-mast tomorrow in memory of those who died in the conflict.
Middle East; Ebola; Syria
Middle East: The SG commended Israeli and Palestinian parties for committing to a 72-hour ceasefire that took place at 8 a.m. local time today. He urges all parties to abide by the ceasefire and commence peace talks in Cairo to address underlying issues and agree on a durable ceasefire to sustainably stop the violence. The UN lends its full support toward these efforts.
Middle East; Iraq; Afghanistan
Middle East: The SG condemned yesterday's shelling outside of an UNRWA school in Rafah that killed at least 10 Palestinian civilians. The SG stated that the attack violated international humanitarian law and UN shelters must continue to be safe zones and not combat zones.
SG; Security Council; Middle East
SG: Last night the SG spoke at a joint press conference with the Foreign Minister of Costa Rica where he repeated his call for an unconditional and extendable humanitarian ceasefire. Speaking about yesterday's shelling of a UN shelter he said: "Nothing – nothing – justifies such horror" and demanded "that all parties immediately respect UN premises".
SG; Ukraine; Middle East
SG: The SG met with President Ortega yesterday in Nicaragua where he visited a wind farm and praised the country's commitment to renewable energy. The SG arrived in Costa Rica today where he is expected to lecture about "Costa Rica and the United Nations: Challenges and Opportunities in the 21st Century".

Izakaya Honda Ya
There's a new Izakaya restaurant in little tokyo called Hondaya. Seems like they're pretty famous in Orange County. I made a visit the other day, the food was good, variety of sake, and the good thing was I didn't have to look for parking and it was free!!!! They close at 1:00 in the morning. I'll guarantee you a good time. Have any of you heard of the place??
re: kitchenhag
I'm assuming LA if he referenced Little Tokyo. This would be best posted on the LA board.
Yes, Honda Ya is an OC perennial favorite. I was in Little Tokyo last Sunday, looking for the new one you talk about. Couldn't find it. Where is it exactly? We ended up going to Daikokuya (which I thought paled in comparison to Santoka).
Here is my post of Honda Ya in Tustin. The original!
re: elmomonster
It's located at
333 S Alameda St, 3rd floor
Los Angeles, CA 90013
(213) 635-1184
Same place as Mitsuwa, same floor as Sushi Go 55.
We certainly have heard of it! :) I'm a big fan of the one in Tustin, and can't wait to try out the one in the old Yaohan plaza.
I have never thought much of this place myself. I don't like the way they cook their meat/fish and their menu does not reflect the season IMO.
I think Musha in Torrance is a better option personally (I think Musha is just okay, but their menu is better and reflects whats in season). On the downside, Musha is very crowded and your often sitting elbow to elbow with the next person.
Musha is next to Japantown on Carson and Western? (I believe)
I've never had a bad experience at the Tustin location. Everything's been great. (with the exception of some long waits) I'm currently dating a Japanese ESL student (from Osaka) and we go there with her Japanese student friends about twice a month. They claim that for izakaya, it's about as good or better than the handful of other izakaya places in SoCal. In fact, two of her Japanese friends are based in LA and they trek it out to the OC fairly often because the they dig the Tustin/Costa Mesa/Fountain Valley Japanese scene. [They actually prefer the OC Shinsengumi over the Gardena location because they claim the service is better.] I would not recommend ordering non-izakaya items at any izakaya joint. Stay away from sushi and ramen. And ignore the dinner section.
After all the raves on this board for the Tustin Honda-ya (and the Little Tokyo location, too) I went to the Little Tokyo restaurant recently with an empty tummy and (unfortunately) high expectations. What a disappointment! And, I'm not going for the "I didn't order the right menu items" excuse; if it ain't good and/or if you have good ingredients and fail miserably in the execution, it shouldn't be on the menu. period. Blech!
re: yinyangdi
Alright, I'll bite.
What DID you order?
re: yinyangdi
Same Assessment here. There is nothing that we like at Honda Ya and we've tried it in Tustin a half dozen times. It's like a Mc D , always busy but the food sucks.
We have tried dozens of menu items which are average at best , but the Sushi is really Horrible.
My suggestion for a Superior Experience would be Kappo Sui in Santa Ana Heights.
re: russkar
I would agree with russkar. Having gone to Honda-ya (Tustin, CA) at least ~10+ times over the last 4 years or more, my friends and I all prefer going to Kappo Honda and Shin Sen Gumi (both on Brookhurst in Fountain Valley). Both of those places' food are superior to Honda-ya.
However, if you're only in the Tustin area and don't want to drive out, then, sure Honda-ya is a decent choice.
re: cynthia105
If you are looking for more upscale and creative food from a izakaya then try Izakaya Zero in Huntington Beach. It has been open a couple of months now.
re: cdmedici
By now I have seen a few threads mentioned Izakaya Zero in HB. Anyone care to compare it with Ikko in Costa Mesa? :-)
As for the Honda Ya in Little Tokyo, I'll avoid at all cost... as I have read one after another disappointed hounder dishing about their experience...
Ikko Japanese Restaurant
735 Baker St Ste C, Costa Mesa, CA 92626
Izakaya Zero
412 Walnut Ave, Huntington Beach, CA


text: It's not new of course. I've owned it since early November 2007. Kate Colquhoun is a journalist and not a food historian. I am afraid it shows. What I found very disconcerting is that she gets things like dates wrong. She starts a section on the printed cookery book and of course immediately gives the wrong date for A Noble Boke of Cookery. She says circa 1540. There's no no circa 1540 about it. The book was printed by Pynson in 1500! We know that because there's that surviving copy at Longleat! There are other flaws and mistakes scattered throughout the book as well. She credits Catherine of Aragon with "the use of lip-smacking Seville orange juice in red-meat stews and pies and the novelty of pairing fish and poultry with lemons." One could go on and on. It's a fun breezy sort of book that reads well, but I would check and recheck all her "facts" and not trust it. Read C. Anne Wilson first.

The classic Marley album, the one that any fair-weather reggae fan owns, Legend contains 14 of his greatest songs, running the gamut from "I Shot the Sheriff" to the meditative "Redemption Song" and the irrepressible "Three Little Birds." Some may argue that the compilation shortchanges his groundbreaking early ska work or his status as a political commentator, but this isn't meant to be definitive, it's meant to be an introduction, sampling the very best of his work. And it does that remarkably well, offering all of his genre-defying greats and an illustration of his excellence, warmth, and humanity. In a way, it is perfect since it gives a doubter or casual fan anything they could want. Let's face it, the beauty and simplicity of Marley's music was as important as his message, and that's captured particularly well here. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

I'm here in Corfu trying to write a book about our big fat Greek gap year.
It ought to be easy. I've lived it, taken a whole host of photos and made note after note after note. Hades, I've written some of it already. But it isn't easy. The problem is that so much happened in the last twelve months, I almost don't know where to start.
Maybe the beginning. That's as good a place as any.
I need to stop editing as I go along and just do it. Then I can edit afterwards. But it's easier said than done.
My mind wanders to what's going in the book and what isn't. There is enough material for a sequel already, and maybe another one.
I think about Corfu and how much it has changed over the years. And also how much it hasn't. There are some views of the island which haven't changed very much at all. And then some which have changed completely.
This was brought home to me when I saw the cover of a book designed by a friend of mine, Jiannis Mourmouras of Fingerprints, featuring the photos of Michalis Kokkalis.
Jiannis has cleverly melded two pictures into one, with a only a tear of paper separating the two.
You can take a look at some of them on the Images of Corfu website here. The book costs £25 (plus £5 postage in UK and Europe) and is available from Corfu bookshops. You can also get the book by emailing email@example.com specifying Then and Now in the subject header. They will send you a PayPal email payment request where you can pay using a secure payment system.
And, in the meantime, while I wait for my copy to arrive, I must stop procrastinating and get on with my own book.
That's about it.

Five Things Weird Al Critiques in Mandatory Fun
By Steve Brennan
By Ashley Zimmerman
In 2001, the unreleased album cover to the Coup's Party Music became a symbol of the post-9/11 balancing of civil liberties and patriotism. Two years later, Sonic Jihad, the fifth album by Paris, the San Francisco Bay Area's own "Black Panther of Rap," rekindles that controversy with a cover depicting a low-flying jet heading straight for the White House. Sonic Jihad is being marketed as an album so dangerous to homeland security that it's unavailable at chain stores (you can find it online at GuerrillaFunk.com). While it's several notches below an al Qaeda training booklet, it's laden with hard, crunchy beats -- as well as some pretty inflammatory comments about police, the government, and the media.
Paris' intensity and lyrical delivery haven't changed much in 13 years, Matrix and CNBC references aside. But these days, he alleges, "hip-hop has sold out," necessitating his latest comeback. "P-Dog in the cut back to bring the pain... It's the return of the Bush killa back to bust," he growls on the album's second track, "Field Nigga Boogie." The song hints at the rapper's return to classic form, with a keyboard bassline and insistent tempo that recall "Break the Grip of Shame," his breakout 1990 single. "What we about is justice and freedom/Fuck the rest," he bellows on "You Know My Name." On "Evil," Paris imagines what he'd do if he were morally corrupt. It's a technique that shows it's far easier to be an ignorant thug rapper than a thugged-out revolutionary.

Denver Airport's Modern Solution to the Classic Lost-and-Found Problem
Thankfully we can't recall a time where we left something behind at the airport, but if you're someone who has gone through your fair share of cell phone chargers the airport in Denver has you covered. The airport just brought their lost and found system online in hopes of reuniting travelers with their lost goodies.
At Denver International Airport all the lost items are collected and organized over in the Jeppesen Terminal on Level 5 near the International Arrivals. However, now the forgotten goods are available over at their website as well, so there's no need to double-back to the airport to start your searching.

Check Your Colorado Rental Car for Little Leftover Baggies
So you probably know that Colorado has legalized marijuana—in all kinds of forms—for recreational use. However, you probably didn't know that there's a new place to acquire the state's latest cash crop. It's your rental car!
Okay—not really, but it does sound like unwanted marijuana has found a second home within the rental car garage. Most of the stuff is left behind at Denver International Airport right in the rental car, and sometimes it's even offered up to the agents by those departing the state.

Watch a Tornado Hit the Runways at Denver International Airport
In 2011, St. Louis Airport suffered a direct hit by an F-4 tornado, causing significant damage to the terminal buildings (but no deaths). The event was a reminder that as secure as an airport may be, it's never safe from the whims of Mother Nature, a lesson learned today by Denver International Airport.
Around 2.15pm local time, a tornado warning was issued for the area around Denver Airport. It didn't last longonly 40 minutesbut it was enough time for a funnel to form and touch down on the eastern runways of the airport, sending travelers scurrying into the tornado shelter, bathrooms, stairwells, storerooms and other more sheltered areas of Denver Airport.
Flights were delayed, of course, but the airport itself hasn't reported any damage or injuries. despite winds which reached 97mph.
In the meantime, social media once again proved the best reporting source of what exactly was going on at DIA, with amazing images of the live tornado such as these:

Get Knocked Out by Denver's Hippest New Coffeeshop, Black Eye
Last September, Denver coffee fiends rejoiced over the opening of Black Eye, a hip new coffeeshop in the up-and-coming neighborhood of Lower Highland.
Housed in an old Coors tavern (which then became a barber shop, which then became a Mexican liquor store), the site's industrial past is now proudly referenced with tables made out of old barn doors, and daily menu specials scrawled onto a salvaged mirror. In short, Black Eye is a DIY masterpiece. But luckily, the appeal of this place goes way beyond Instagram-worthy decor.
Prior to the cafe's opening, co-owner Dustin Audet admitted he was routinely driving 30 minutes out of his way just to find a good cup of coffee. "The neighborhood needed a full-on, good coffee shop, and community space," he told us.
So that's exactly what he, along with two other co-owners built. Here's what we recommend ordering when you go:

Two More Weeks of Skating, Tickets and LUV at Southwest's Denver Ice Rink
We're pretty sure that when it comes to cities and their residents Southwest Airlines doesn't want to play favorites, but that might not be the case when it comes to Denver. After all the city is the proud of home of the airline's skating rink—Southwest Rink at Skyline Park—and now it looks like the airline is getting ready to shower the city with even more
First and foremost you've only got a couple more weeks if you're looking to take a spin out on the rink. Winter isn't coming to an end anytime soon—but the skating rink is—as the ice is no longer an option starting around Valentine's Day. However, there's still much to celebrate as the rink prepares for its final days in the Mile High City.

The Bunnies at Denver Airport Are Nibbling More Than Just Carrots
When it comes to cute critters on the internet it's hard to beat kitties, but we have to argue that bunnies might be able to give felines a run for their money. Unfortunately the bunnies we're talking about aren't 100 percent cute, as apparently the bunnies that call Denver International Airport home have a little bit of a mean streak.
There's quite a few rabbits living in and around the airport, but they're getting a little frisky when it comes to checking out parked cars at the airport. They are getting a little too friendly with the vehicles, as they've started to nibble and chew on some vital components—like wiring and brake lines.
The US Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services is already on the case, as they're promising to remove any of the critters that are doing the damage. However, it might be a good idea to leave some carrots outside your car when parking at DEN—you know, just in case.

Training Camp Travel: Catch Your First Glimpse of Peyton Manning as a Bronco
Are you ready for some football?! There's still a few months before the first official kickoff, but that doesn't mean that there isn't time for a sneak peek. Training camps are set to do their thing later this month, so if you've always wanted to check out the scrimmages and practices now's the time to start planning:
If you weren't paying attention during the offseason, there was a pretty big move by one future hall of fame quarterback. Due to a nagging injury Peyton Manning kind of didn't play during the 2011 season and, as a result, he packed his bags and moved away from Indianapolis. It was certainly the story of the offseason, but after all was said and done he decided to join the Denver Broncos.
We're thinking that the Broncos will do fine without fan favorite Tim Tebow, and it's likely that with Manning at the helm they'll be back in the playoffs once again this season.

Frontier's New In-Flight Menu Now with 100% More 'Made in Colorado'
We knew that Frontier was all about the sudsy stuff up in the air, but now it looks like their expanding their pride to other in-flight items. Frontier is pretty darn excited to be from Colorado, and they're starting to share their pride with one and all. The best part is that they're doing it right through the in-flight menu.
Of course nothing is free, but at least when you're spending your digital dollars up in the air you're getting something somewhat unique. Earlier this month Frontier added local options like Boulder Canyon Kettle Chips, Evol Burritos, and Mountain Man Almond Chocolate Cherry Crunch trail mix to its menu. That's in addition to other Colorado options like Colorado Native Beer, Blue Moon, Fat Tire Amber Ale, and of course Coors Light.

Digital Ad Curtains at Denver Airport? Now We've Heard It All
If you're flying through—or heading to—Denver International Airport any time soon you might just notice something you haven't ever seen before. The airport is planning to install some kind of high tech advertising screens, and apparently they're the first to get these new slices of sales-y technology.
Technically they're digital LED video curtains, and the plan is to install them all over the airport—with a focus in and around the security screening spots. They'll also be hung from some of the elevator towers in the main terminal, where they can welcome visitors but also inform passengers of the best deals on airport parking. They're super thin—truly like electronic curtains—and super large, as the new screens are around 26-feet diagonally.

Aspen at Its Peak in One Minute of Time-Lapse
It's 72 and sunny right now in New York City and promising to reach 80 by week's end, with the midwest enjoying up to 85. Not only are the high temperatures crazy, but they're shocking. Will weather crash in April, bringing back cold temps? We doubt it, but we're not putting away our leather gloves quite yet.
Instead, it's time to start planning winter hotspot getaways for 2013. Deep breath.
If you live in a major US city, it may seem as though everybody and their moms took off for Aspen, Colorado in the last few weeks. During this time, The Daily's Robert Sevilla and Joni Milne grabbed their cameras and pieced together shots of a sort of "ski rush hour." This is peak season, this is the time of year to aim to go to Aspen next year, and this is what it looks like when you do.
It's only mid-March and already we're nostalgic for winter weather. Sigh.

One Town's 'WTF' Tourism Campaign is Over Before It Starts
If you didn't already hear about the latest tourism campaign from Fruita, Colorado, then we'll fill you in. Local officials thought it was pretty darn clever to promote the town with a WTF—Welcome to Fruita—sticker. Well it sounds like they were all ready to send the graphics off to Kinko's for printing and distribution, but some town residents had a little WTF moment themselves and now the party is over before it even began.
A local group initially made like 500 of the stickers and they kind of took off, and that's when the town decided to jump onto the WTF bandwagon. Unfortunately now that the tourism board has had some time to think things over, the idea is out. The decision comes at a perfect time, however, since the next move would have been installing a billboard along the interstate that proudly exclaimed Welcome to Fruita—the abbreviated version—to passing motorists.

John Elway Will Be Slinging Steaks Soon Enough at Denver Airport
For football fans—and those who enjoy a juicy steak—one of the best airport restaurants is now on the drawing board. Former NFL great John Elway—quarterback of the Denver Broncos—has a couple steakhouses in the greater Denver area. Apparently the restaurants—known as Elway's—are pretty popular and very tasty, so the plan is now to expand Elway's to the airport.
There's still a lot of paperwork to be completed and plans to be finalized, but it sounds like Denver International Airport is getting ready for plenty of steak and excited for the opening late next year. The plan is to build the restaurant in and around the existing United Airlines gates within Concourse B.
Of course we were thinking about how the steakhouse is going to handle the lack of metal knives after security, but they're not too concerned. One member of the restaurant group commented on the tenderness of a steak from Elway's remarking that cutting one of their steaks doesn't require a knife. However, if you need one, they do have plans to source some pretty descent plastic knives.

If the victim's injuries were not life-threatening, the ambulance would not have used its sirens or driven at speed. The police often do not use their sirens, but drive with the lights flashing only, ostensibly not to give warning to the perps. This according to my nephew, the EMT.

Wichita police want your input in fighting crime over the next four years.
Two surveys are posted online. One is on the strategic plan for the department for 2012-2014. The other asks about the police department's air unit.
Questions about crime issues, social issues and spending are just some of those listed in the survey. Police want to know in order of importance, what officers should be focusing on when they are not responding to 9-11 calls, neighborhood issues, drug or gang enforcement, youth or homeland security.
"Especially with tax dollars being limited, we need to put our money to good use and our resources to good use," said Lt. Doug Nolte of the Wichita Police Department.
