Nice looking wine storage at a great price!
Nancy from Dallas, TX– Verified Buyer
We bought six of the 18 bottle wall-mounted wine racks and stacked them two high in three columns, so they are just over 6' tall with a few inches off the floor to vacuum. Our wall is curved so we added just a little extra space beyond the recommended spacing, and we now have capacity for 9 cases within a space of 40" wide. Since they are stacked two deep, you have to peek through a bit to read the label on the second bottle, if storing different wines on each row. My husband had to drill pilot holes when we hit studs installing them, but the recommended dry wall fastners we purchased with the racks went right into the wall with ease, and have solidly held the wines we've loaded in so far. We put in all six racks easily within a couple hours and are already considering adding a couple more racks. Good value and looks quite nice!
These were perfect for our "wine wall"
Linda from Parkland, FL– Verified Buyer
We created a wine tasting room and wanted a rack structure so that the bottles would be placed securely sideways so that the labels were readily visible for selection and organization. After reading the mounting and measuring information before ordering, we were able to lay out the entire wall virtually floor to ceiling, paint and frame the area in a beautiful deep rich faux finish, then purchase multiples to complete a fantastic look. With proper anchoring, they are very securely hung on the wall and many compliments have been received.
perfect wine rack
Marta from Chicago, IL– Verified Buyer– Top 500 Reviewer
I bought bunch of them, for a self made wine room. Order came fast, without any issues, Installation was simple. Good quality, no issues so far.

Anna from Carlsbad, CA– Verified Buyer
Great product - saw them at a home show for a new builder and had to have them! Look great and hold weight of even 2 liter bottles with ease
Have used numerous times.
alexa from East Hampton, NY– Verified Buyer– Top 500 Reviewer
This racking system works well. Multiple depths available for 1-3 bottles deep.
Very happy.
Valued Customer from CA– Verified Buyer
The wine rack worked out just fine and we're very happy with it!
looks great challenging to install
Kristen Davis from easthampton, MA– Verified Buyer
This is very pro looking but take in consideration your walls. We installed these in a hundred year old building with plaster walls. We were only able to mount them in one stud so weight is definitely an issue. Most studs are 12 inches apart but these have to be positioned 8 inches apart to hold the bottles. With 18 bottles of wine I am a little nervous whether they will really support the weight.
A great way to repurpose a junk closet!
Tom from Woodbine, NJ– Verified Buyer
With the help of these wine racks I was able to remodel and repurpose the closet under our stairs into a wine room. We now can hold around 100 bottles and are proud to show off our handy work!
Highly Recommend
Wine Guy from Omaha, NE
This works great for us. We were able to eliminate three floor wine racks. The ability to double stack the wine bottles was a plus and it is easy to install.
9 x 2 racks plug covers
j from Vermont– Verified Buyer
9 x 2 racks were well finished and sturdy. The only installation problem is that the "plug covers" pop off because the rectangular bar needs to be a little deeper to give enough clearance for typical screw heads used for mounting, particularly if the screw head is not perfectly centered in the access hole.

The Art of Madness
January 10, 2011 § 3 Comments
"Madness is to think too many things in succession too fast, or one thing too exclusively." ~ Voltaire
"A person needs a little madness, or else they never dare cut the rope and be free." ~ Nikos Kazantzakis
"You're only given a little spark of madness. You mustn't lose it." ~ Robin Williams
In his seminal work, "Madness and Civilization," French philosopher Michael Faucault posits that psychiatry uses labeling language (known as positive science) to camouflage the bourgeois values imposed on social deviancy.
In other words, the mental health system acts as a kind of suppressive goon against nonconformity.
Vincent Van Gogh, famous for his sunflowers, wheat fields and ear-chopping, acknowledged that:
"It is only too true that a lot of artists are mentally ill — it's a life which, to put it mildly, makes one an outsider. I'm all right when I completely immerse myself in work, but I'll always remain half crazy."
From an evolutionary perspective, survival depends on some kind of social acceptance. So it's natural that we attempt to avoid stigmatization. Yet, the seeker-dreamer feels compelled towards living authentically and will often sacrifice herd acceptance for the satisfaction of true self-expression.
Still, there is the ever-present, if subconscious, awareness that if you go too far, you could lose liberty. If you act too differently, you could be institutionalized.
Once deemed clinically insane, the individual's rights become blurry, as with criminals.
The incarceration of psychological dissidents acts as a kind of warning to wayward thinkers; a cautionary tale to not let one's mind run too far into the fanciful woods.
Edgar Allen Poe observed:
"Men have called me mad, but the question is not yet settled, whether madness is or is not the loftiest intelligence—whether much that is glorious—whether all that is profound—does not spring from disease of thought—from moods of mind exalted at the expense of the general intellect. Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night."
In the Renaissance, the mentally ill were considered to have gotten too close to "the Reason of God."
Tribal cultures throughout the world consider madness the first sign of a shaman's birth into his power, marking him as one who can communicate between the physical and the invisible worlds.
Dr Adele Juda, researcher at the Institute for Psychiatry of Munich, interviewed over 5,000 people between 1927 –1943. She found what was considered neurosis and personality disorder in 27% of the artists & 19% of the scientists and statesmen studied, against the general rate of 10-12%.
The highest rates of psychic disruption were seen among poets (50%).
As French poet Arthur Rimbaud writes:
"A poet makes himself a visionary through a long, boundless, and systematized disorganization of all the senses. All forms of love, of suffering, of madness; he searches himself, he exhausts within himself all poisons, and preserves their quintessences. Unspeakable torment, where he will need the greatest faith, a superhuman strength, where he becomes all men… Because he has cultivated his soul, already rich, more than anyone, he attains the unknown."
The lowest rates of neurosis were found among architects (17%).
A good friend of mine once worked as a personal assistant for an Oscar-winning talent who shall remain nameless. She has shared moments with me wherein the successful entertainer barreled through the living room in boxer shorts, a newsboy hat and cowboy boots, a manuscript of papers clutched to his chest, saying, "I'm going mad!"—after dumping his papers in a pile to play a beautiful fit of piano music & jumping up to scribble in a notebook.
He smiled of course when he said it, because he had managed to play the most beautiful hoodwink upon society that a creative mind can play: he made money being slightly mad.
And that is the art of insanity: valuing creative chaos and giving it room to unfold without premature critique or analysis. Order and reason can come later. As Nietzsche says:
"You must have chaos within to give birth to a dancing star."
Creative process doesn't have to make sense, and some of the world's greatest visionaries have proven that it's better if it doesn't. Far-fetched processes yield unusual thoughts, and novel ideas garner more attention than pedestrian ones.
Am I suggesting that one can not be brilliant without being insane? Certainly not. But in order to have great thoughts, one's mind must certainly be open to a broader scope than the average thinker, and when a mind is broad in expanse, the impressions therein will be unusually varied.
Madness and art are not mutually exclusive, but they do go well together, and often turn up as a pair to the same party. If you're one of those who dreams awake and finds yourself an "outsider" like van Gogh, consider yourself lucky: you're in good company and that much closer to doing something original.
So use your madness to your own advantage. Rather than stuffing it in a drawer, take it out to play.
"Imagination," Einstein says, "is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand."
"There is no genius free from some tincture of madness." Seneca

The Role of the Dreamer & The Falseness of Civilization
December 24, 2010 § 22 Comments
"We are the music-makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams. ~ Arthur O'Shaughnessy
We live in a world of dead men's dreams. Our reality, the society that has been conditioning our perception from the day of our birth, is a construction built upon a construction built upon ideas from other minds, long dead. Their creations compose our world and make up the maps of our psyches, a collective human inheritance.
Today, staring at a red light in the shape of an arrow, waiting to get on the freeway, I was suddenly struck by my — and everyone's — trancelike acceptance of the symbol. I noted how automatic my responses to the direction had been: I stopped calmly and waited until the light turned green, a perfectly reasonable thing to do, except, in that moment, I felt unusually aware of the lab rat-like nature of my obedience. Stranger still, I realized I had never noticed the phenomenon before, because it had always been that way.
Green light: go. Red light: stop. Yellow: slow down. It's as if we are on a motorized conveyer belt with an array of endless arrows telling us where to go. Apart from the occasional miscalculation, our roads, our cities, our skies, run like the inside of a well-oiled machine.
Sitting there, waiting for the arrow to turn green, I imagined looking down from an airplane at the grid-work of cities, the straightness of sidewalks, the neat ribbons of car rooftops. Stop. Go. Cogs and wheels. The machine of the city, like the inside of a clock.
It is no wonder I feel most peaceful in nature — a thing not of man, pure; from before him and beyond him.
Our education starts young. We are groomed for the world: sit quietly, yield to authority and accept the consensus reality. Anything that falls outside of this perimeter is systematically dismissed.
We aren't taught to ask questions but to regurgitate articulately. We go to school and learn the rules. Then, when we're of age, we get a job and try to play the learned rules better than our peers so we can make money and survive.
In a basic sense, this rule playing to survive is the only option given us. The alternative is homelessness, insanity. There are other options, of course, and many brave souls do live the unfettered life of the irrepressible spirit within these thinly populated margins. But it's damn hard, against the grain, and the majority of people get funneled into the general conveyer belt of The System, spending all day at work in order to afford the house or apartment they leave empty five days a week to go to work.
As we all know, but rarely stop to consider the wild absurdity of, part of the Education involves some very highly regarded paper notes printed by The System to represent worth. We are told that some of these notes are worth more than others. Some are worth enough to exchange for a yacht and others are worth enough for only a cup of coffee. The only difference between these two notes is the symbols on their faces.
I think despite our Education everyone has had the passing thought that we've been duped. As we all know, this Monopoly money isn't even backed by it's worth in gold anymore. Though gold has its own hollow ring — you can't eat it, it provides no information, and functions solely as a signifier — at least it has a tangibility. But The System ran out of gold years ago, and just kept printing bills. So after spending all day at work we are given a handful of Monopoly money for our trouble. "Here ya go!" says The System, patting Its worker bee on the head. "Some nice crisp colored paper!"
Once we are equipped with our colored paper symbols, we are bombarded by advertisers who seek to steal our image of ourselves as we exist without their product, and sell it back to us, "upgraded," in exchange for the paper notes we have earned with our labor.
Far from inspired to grow vivid dreams, we are encouraged by media everywhere to overeat bad food and shop our cares away. It's not personal, it's marketing. But how many commercials does an average American watch in a lifetime? Billions. It would be impossible to be completely unaffected by such a bombardment.
MBG recently underwent some criticism for creating a commercial that literally burned the image of their logo onto the inside of movie-goers retinas, utilizing the phenomenon that happens when you look at the sun and then close your eyes, leaving an 'after-image' for several moments on the inside of the eyelids. But how different is this really from what regular commercials are doing everyday?
In this world of advertisers who steal our images of ourselves, this time of speedy sound bites and cheap entertainment, a newer/bigger/faster culture of diversion seems to be developing. Writer Nicholas Carr speculates that our constant Internet trolling is remodeling our brains to make it nearly impossible for us to give sustained attention to a long piece of writing. He wonders if modern man's addiction to technology is weakening his ability to engage in deep thought.
Tests show that internet perusal activates the "seeker" instinct in man left over from foraging days, so that when a quest for online information is initiated, the promise of obtaining a new nugget of social interaction or trivia sets the dopamine flowing in our brains.
But research suggest that, chemically, the actual payoff is less exciting than the anticipation. In affect, an obsessive loop can be activated, leaving us continually pressing the lever for another crumb.
Modern culture seems to do everything it can to ignore feeding the imagination. While some films do generate spectacular visuals, and even mental-emotional exploration at their best, movie-viewing is a passive experience. The image is generated for us by other minds, and viewers become happily immersed in an alternate reality. With the rising popularity and marketing push behind 3D movies, today's cinema experience is beginning to look more and more like a "feely" out of Aldous Huxley's Brave New World.
"Going to the Feelies this evening, Henry?" enquired the Assistant Predestinator. "I hear the new one at the Alhambra is first-rate. There's a love scene on a bearskin rug; they say it's marvelous. Every hair of the bear reproduced. The most amazing tactual effects…"
In our tick-tock world we are encouraged to function like clockwork, prescribed medication when we aren't integrating well with society, and given our jollies at the" feelies".
"We have been metamorphosised from a mad body dancing on hillsides to a pair of eyes staring in the dark."
For centuries, the medicine men and women of ancient indigenous cultures have utilized the dissociative affects of psychotropic substances to step outside of the hive mind and brush with possibility; to travel through inner space and bring back dreams and stories to stimulate the imagination of the tribe. I find it interesting that these substances, which might open up new ways of thinking, are illegal in our culture, but consumption of the cancer-causing distraction of cigarettes and the numbing agent of alcohol is legal and actively encouraged (shades of "1984's" Victory Gin.)
What is to be done then, once it becomes clear that we are living in a reality inherited by long dead others? The first thing is to step outside of the consensus spell, as much as possible. Awareness is key.
And then what, after deconstruction? Endless analysis? What really can be done? Society will not disappear. Enter The Dreamer.
The role of the dreamer is the same as the philosopher, the artist, the social critic, the wizard or shaman, and s/he has had the same noble destiny for all of time: to stimulate the imagination of society.
During times when philosophical complacency runs high and value for the arts and the humanities runs low, it is the moral and metaphysical obligation of every Dreamer to speak their truth as best they can in whatever medium most excites them. It is the destiny of every Dreamer to bring aliveness to the mechanized time, provocation to the complacent culture.
In order to engage in the original thought necessary to provide the world with stimulating observations, The Dreamer must affectively step outside of the mental framework of society and perceive the world from a bird's eye view.
We must question everything we have been taught and hereto assumed. We must seek new information of worth and be on a constant mission to set the imagination on fire.
There is so much beauty available, so many notes left behind by others before us who have questioned the way we live. To combat the mechanized, plastic, consumeristic worldview infiltrating our minds everyday from the outside, we must consciously seek experiences that feed the soul.
We must give ourselves time to dream, to exist in undisturbed silence and nature, to ruminate on our lives and question reality.
As the advertisement-driven Western World slowly succeeds in covering the globe with McDonald arches and brand name blurbs, as people become more and more addicted to the instant gratification of pop technology, we are increasingly in danger of losing the impulse to dream. Without vision, without self-questioning, we lose our way.
Dreamers are in high demand these days. This is a call to arms. Can you be a professional dreamer? I, for one, am certainly going to try.

|Student Transportation Inc. Reports Fiscal 2013 First Quarter Results
|Thursday, 08 November 2012 09:35
BARRIE, Ontario -- Student Transportation Inc. ("STI" or the "Company") today reported financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2013, ended September 30, 2012. All financial results are reported in US dollars except as otherwise noted. STI's first quarter results reflect the normal seasonality of the school bus transportation industry. Accordingly, the first quarter results are not considered to be indicative of the Company's annual results.
"The first quarter operating results for fiscal year 2013 were in line with our internal expectations and reflect the continued momentum of the growth secured in the prior fiscal year from both a revenue stand point and a higher offseason cost standpoint," said Patrick J. Walker, STI's CFO. "Since the first quarter of the prior fiscal year does not include the start up operations or staff associated with the growth we secured during the year, the first quarter of fiscal 2013 naturally reflects higher offseason costs compared to the prior fiscal year first quarter. As previously noted, we enter the new fiscal year anticipating an approximate 15 percent increase in annualized revenue for fiscal 2013 resulting from the year-over-year impact of the acquisitions completed last fiscal year and new bid contract wins for the current fiscal year."
Revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 increased to $61.6 million from $51.1 million, and adjusted EBITDA* reflected a loss of ($3.5) million compared to a loss of ($2.4) million for the first quarter of fiscal year 2012.
STI reported a net loss of $7.6 million or $0.10 per common share for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to the prior fiscal year first quarter net loss of $11.3 million or $0.18 per common share. The improvement in net loss is primarily attributable to the currency re-measurement gain on the U.S. dollar denominated 6.25 percent convertible notes (TSX: STB.DB.U) issued by STI, combined with unrealized gains on currency hedging contracts included in the first quarter of Fiscal 2013, partially offset by the higher offseason costs, higher non-cash and unrealized foreign exchange expenses compared to the same period of the prior year.
"We are off to a good start for the new fiscal year. We have secured new contracts and renewals of existing ones to maintain our contracted revenue visibility into the future. We did have some operational school closings in late October and early November due to the recent hurricane in the Eastern United States, and particularly in New Jersey. We have the experience to deal with crisis issues that arise as evidenced by our handling of similar events in the past while maintaining consistent annual results, which is a credit to our dedicated operations management team and employees," added Walker.
Subsequent Events
The company also reported on October 3, 2012, that the Company exercised its right to redeem the 7.5% convertible debentures effective November 2, 2012. During October Cdn $20.3 million of 7.5% convertible debentures were converted into 3.9 million common shares by certain note holders. On November 2, 2012, the Company redeemed the remaining Cdn $0.3 million principal amount of 7.5% convertible debentures for cash.
On October 19, 2012, the Company renewed its "normal course issuer bid" with the TSX for the purchase of its common shares as appropriate opportunities arise over the next twelve months. Any purchase of common shares will be made at market prices and the common shares will be cancelled upon the purchase by the Company.
The company has experienced some disruptions in service due to Hurricane Sandy, which hit the Northeast states of New Jersey, Connecticut, New York, Rhode Island and New Hampshire. While the company has lost some operating days in the second quarter historically lost days are made up during the year as revenue contracts in place call for 180 days of school transportation on average. The company has emergency plans in place in all regions throughout North America and sustained minor flooding damage to a few of its locations in the hardest hit areas but all assets and vehicles were secured prior to the arrival of the storm. Employees are assisting in their communities and schools are reopening.
STI's interim financial statements, notes to financial statements and management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations will be available at www.sedar.com or at the Company's website at www.rideSTA.com.
Founded in 1997, Student Transportation Inc. is North America's third-largest and fastest-growing provider of school bus transportation services, operating more than 9,000 vehicles. Student Transportation's family of local companies delivers safe, reliable and cost-effective transportation solutions to school districts throughout the U.S. and Canada. Services are delivered by drivers, dispatchers, maintenance technicians, terminal managers and others who are caring members of their local communities. For more information, please visit www.rideSTBus.com.
* Non-GAAP Measures
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, but management believes it is useful in measuring STI's performance. Readers are cautioned that this measure should not be construed as an alternative to net income or loss or other comparable measures determined in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of the Company's performance or as a measure of its liquidity and cash flow. The Company's method of calculating non-GAAP measures may differ from the methods used by other issuers and accordingly, the Company's non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other issuers.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this news release are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of applicable securities laws, which reflect the expectations of management regarding, among other matters, STI's revenues, expense levels, cost of capital, financial leverage, seasonality, liquidity, profitability of new businesses acquired or secured through bids, borrowing availability, ability to renew or refinance various loan facilities as they become due, ability to execute STI's growth strategy and cash distributions, as well as their future growth, results of operations, performance and business prospects and opportunities. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "may", "will", "expect", "intend", "estimate", "anticipate", "believe", "should", "plans" or "continue" or similar expressions, and the negative forms thereof, suggesting future outcomes or events.

If any good news can be gleaned from a recent spate of mass shootings in the United States, it's that these horrific incidents tend to raise awareness and spur employers to find new and better ways to improve the safety and security of their workplaces.
A federal district court decision on a National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) rule requiring employers to post notices informing workers of their right to unionize could have a wide-reaching impact on most U.S. employers and their workers, according to experts.

Non-conformist, angry, resolute – Hocico-shouter Erk Aicrag calls out an attack with an anthem dedicated to all the black sheep in this world: an Electronic-Body-Rock-New-Wave-Punk-bastard that was born to stir up some trouble. This EP-length appetizer for the new Rabia Sorda album sports the energetic title track in 5 mixes, as well as an exclusive b-side and a raw and aggressive cover of a Joy-Division-classic! 2012 A.D. The entire world has sunk into monotony, apathy and resignation: it is the dawn of the "sheeple" that are all too willingly following the pull of the masses. The entire world? No, siree! A small, Latin American collective of musicians by the name of Rabia Sorda is forming up a rabid resistance. The new single "Eye M The Blacksheep" is an anthem for the non-conformists, an Electronic-Body-Rock-New-Wave-Punk-bastard full of anger, energy and unbridled emotions! Hocico-front man Erk Aicrag trashes the paradigms of yore with a thunderstorm of pure sound and raises his fist and voice against blind conformism: "look here! I am the black sheep…and I'm darn proud of it!" The anthemic title track is included on this EP-length appetizer for the upcoming album in a total of five mixes (the single version and remixes by Officers, Pankow, Lord Of The Lost and Absolute Body Control) and immediately draws you in with its immense addictive potential. The CD-single also features one more new and unreleased song plus a raw and brutal cover of the Joy Division classic "She's Lost Control" which Rabia Sorda infuse with their own trademark sound. Rabia Sorda sound fresh, aggressive and different. This isn't music – this is rebellion! Tracks: 1. Eye M The Blacksheep 2. Father 3. Eye M The Blacksheep (Lord Of The Lost Remix by Chris Harms & Corvin Bahn) 4. Eye M The Blacksheep (Pankow remix) 5. She's Lost Control (and me too) 6. Eye M The Blacksheep (Absolute Body Control Remix) 7. Eye M The Blacksheep (Kuroshio Pitch Black remix) 8. Eye M The Blacksheep (Officers Remix)

Writer Bill James called Guerrero "the best hitter God has made in a long time." Originally signed as a free agent by the Indians, Guerrero was virtually stolen by the Dodgers after his first pro season, acquired in exchange for pitching flop Bruce Ellingsen. He first hit the limelight when his five RBIs in the final game of the 1981 World Series gave him a piece of the first three-way Series MVP award. In 1982 he became the first Dodger to hit 30 HR and steal 20 bases in a season, and he did it again the following year.
In 1985 Guerrero tied a major league record with 15 HR in June, en route to tying the Los Angeles record of 33. He also reached base 14 consecutive times that year, two shy of Ted Williams's record, and led the league in slugging, on-base and home run percentage.
Guerrero also played in St. Louis and contended for a MVP and after 1993 was out of Proffesional Baseball. In September 1999, Guerrero was arrested for trying to buy 33 pounds of cocaine from an undercover agent.
Los Angeles Dodgers
Originally signed as a free agent by the Indians, Guerrero was acquired by the Dodgers in exchange for pitcher Bruce Ellingsen. He broke into the Dodger lineup as a replacement for the injured Davey Lopes at second base.
Guerrero had five RBIs in the final game of the 1981 World Series, which earned him a piece of the first three-way Series MVP award (sharing the award with Ron Cey and Steve Yeager). In somewhat of a symbol of the insufficient attention he received during his impressive career, he was the only one of the three not to be interviewed during the nationally televised post-game celebration. In 1982, he became the first Dodger to hit 30 home runs and steal 20 bases in a season, and he did it again the following year.
In 1985, Guerrero tied a major league record with 15 home runs in June, and also tied the Los Angeles season record of 33. He reached base 14 consecutive times that year, two short of the record set by Ted Williams, and led the league in slugging, on-base and home run percentage.
Guerrero was an aggressive baserunner but a poor slider. He ruptured a tendon sliding in spring training and missed most of the 1986 season, after which he ran less frequently. But in 1987 he batted .338 and won the UPI's Comeback Player of the Year award. His batting average that year was the highest by any Dodger since the .346 recorded by Tommy Davis in 1962.
Dodger management appeared to believe him capable of any athletic feat, and they thought nothing of shifting him to third base in mid-career, and in and out as the need arose. Although he gained a reputation for being shaky at third, statistics show that he was about as good as anyone in the league at getting to the ball. In the minors he made all-star teams at both first base and third base, and he broke into the Dodger lineup as a replacement for the injured Davey Lopes at second base. Guerrero was traded to the Cardinals for pitcher John Tudor during the 1988 season and missed out on the Dodgers' World Championship that fall. Guerrero had enough left for one more spectacular season, batting .311 with 17 home runs, a career-high 117 RBIs and a league-high 42 doubles in 1989, but his production fell off sharply afterwards. He finished his career batting just .219 with one home run in 1992 as a shoulder injury limited him to 43 games.
In a classic (and probably apocryphal) tale, manager Tommy Lasorda was talking to Guerrero about how to field third base at a time when Steve Sax was having his problems at second base - and it went something like this:
"Tommy: Pedro, suppose the bases are loaded. What are you thinking about the next hitter? Pedro: "I'm thinking 'Don't hit it to me'. Tommy: Come on, what else are you thinking? Pedro: I'm thinking 'Don't hit it to Saxxy either'."
During his Dodger tenure he was third in the MVP voting three times - twice with the Dodgers and once with the St. Louis Cardinals. He was World Series co-MVP in 1981, when the Dodgers won the World Series. He was also a key member of the division-winning Dodger teams in 1983 and 1985, and was part of the 1988 Dodgers who went on to win the World Series until he was traded to the Cardinals (for pitcher John Tudor) in mid-season - at the time he was hitting .298 with a good on-base percentage but not much power.
His departure was hastened by the arrival of a new teammate. That year the Dodgers were led by the fiery Kirk Gibson, who won the NL MVP award and hit a legendary World Series home run. Oil and water mix together better than Pedro and Kirk.
St. Louis Cardinals
During Los Angeles' 1988 championship season, he was traded to the Cardinals for pitcher John Tudor.
In 1989, Guerrero earned serious MVP consideration, batting .311 with 17 home runs, a career-high 117 RBIs and a league-high 42 doubles. His production fell off sharply afterwards. In 1992 a shoulder injury limited him to 43 games, and he finished his major league career batting just .219 with one home run.
Independent leagues and Mexico
In 1993, after becoming a free agent and not finding a new major league team, Guerrero signed with the independent Sioux Falls Canaries of the Northern League. He split the season between the Canaries and the Charros de Jalisco of the Mexican League. He returned to the Canaries in 1994, then made one more attempt at a comeback in 1995 with the Midland Angels, the Double-A farm team of the California Angels before retiring.
In September 1999, Guerrero was arrested for trying to buy 33 pounds of cocaine from an undercover agent. In June 2002, he was acquitted of drug conspiracy charges after his attorney argued his low IQ prevented him from understanding that he had agreed to a drug deal.
Later in 1999, O.J. Simpson claimed in a call to 911 that his then girlfriend, Christie Prody, was missing and had been using drugs for two days with Guerrero.
Fast Facts:
In 2011, Guerrero joined the Arizona Winter League as a hitting instructor
The two most similar players through 2006, according to the similarity scores method, are Rico Carty and Ben Oglivie, although Pedro has a higher Adjusted OPS+ than either of them.
Guerrero's half-brother, Domingo Michel, was a minor league and CPBL outfielder from 1984-1999 and coached for the DSL White Sox in 2010.
Guerrero, who was born in 1956, played quite a few seasons in the minors - with a career minor league batting average of .319. He started in the minors in 1973, becoming a major league regular only in 1980.

After our feature on lifehacker which I blogged about a week or so ago, we read some of the comments and decided that it was important to use driving directions to calculate our midpoint. You spoke out and we delivered… The new version of rendeznew will use the driving path between two points to calculate the midpoint (and something that we have that our competitors don't have is the ability to avoid highways). Take a look at the screen shot here and take a look at the site for this example:
You can still enter up to four points, but our algorithm will not take into account the driving directions for three or four points. We are still working hard on developing something that will take some of those factors into account for more than two points. But for now, you can still enter up to four points and drag the midpoint to somewhere that is more to your liking. Actually, try it for two locations and see what happens, I think you will like what you see =). Thanks for all the feedback and as always email us or tell us in the comments about any bugs/suggestions/likes/dislikes/concerns (anything) that you want to tell us about rendeznew. Now go try things out and meet in the middle.

E-mail Discussion Lists: How They Work, How They Help, How to Find the Best for You© 1999 Virginia Lawrence, Ph.D.
E-mail discussion lists are focused e-mail discussions for members only. You must be a list member to participate in the discussions and to read the discussions.
How E-mail Discussion Lists Work
PubForum is a good example of an e-mail discussion list. PubForum is dedicated to independent publishers, their questions and their solutions. Interested parties join the list by sending an e-mail to:
Membership List
After joining an e-mail discussion list, the member receives a copy of every e-mail sent to the list members. Each member can ask questions by e-mail or reply to any message from another member.
Moderated List
PubForum is a moderated discussion list. This means that the owner of the list reviews every message sent to the list. The moderator strives to maintain the clear focus of the discussion by eliminating any inappropriate messages.
Digested List
Some e-mail discussion lists are extremely active, leading to 20-30 e-mail responses per day. Such a large number of e-mails, when added our own personal e-mail traffic, can become just another burden in a busy day. But most discussion lists also offer a digest version.
When a list member signs up for the digest version, the member usually receives only one e-mail per day from the list. That single e-mail contains all of that days messages.
Receiving one e-mail from the list makes mail management much easier. Rather than receiving 25 separate e-mails every day, the member receives only one which he can save or read.
In digest version, the member opens the one e-mail of the day, then simply uses the PageDown button to run through the e-mail as he reads. Using the digest version of an e-mail discussion list is a quick and efficient way to keep current on your topic of choice.
How E-mail Discussion Lists Help
If you like to talk about a topic, have questions on a topic, or want to learn more about a topic, you should join a discussion list on that topic. In addition, if you have a book or a Web site which might interest the members of a list, you certainly want to tell them about your offering.
After you join a busy list, you will receive daily messages discussing the topic of the list. That topic could be independent publishing, as in PubForum, or it could be geneology, or geology, or air pollution, or racy stories, or chicken farming, or WWII, or any area that interests you.
As the messages arrive, you can simply read and learn, or you can participate in the discussion.
Although I encourage you to let everyone on the list know about your book on the topic, we should avoid blatant self-promotion on a discussion list. The best course is to respond to current messages with well-considered replies. Respond with your expertise on the topic and end with your signature.
Your E-mail Signature
Just as a real-world business letter ends with:
All of your e-mails should end with your signature. For example, Joe Blows e-mail signature might be:
Using your signature to explain who you are and what you offer is the discussion list equivalent of the business card. Just as you dont force your business card on everyone you meet, you dont force your information on the discussion list members. Rather, you participate in discussion and use your signature at the end of every message you send.
How to Find the Best E-mail Discussion Lists for You
My best e-mail discussion list will not necessarily be the best list for you, even when we are interested in the same topic. Thats because every list has its own personality. Some lists are light-hearted and funny, even when the topic is fairly serious. Other lists are rigidly serious and pedantic, while many tread a middle ground.
To find discussion lists in any topic, search on the topic in a search engine or start at the discussion list directory Web site.
Join the lists that sound interesting and read the messages for a few days. Evaluate the expertise of the people sending messages to the list, and evaluate the tenor of the list. You will quickly see whether the list will be useful for you.

Spike Seasoning
I received ten Spike Seasonings to review, yes ten! You probably have some of these seasonings in your spice cabinet already but by a different company. So what's different about Spike?
Spike Seasoning Magic is made with all natural ingredients, you can read and understand all the ingredients easily on the label. It's also lower in salt than other spices and several are salt and/or gluten free. Don't worry, there's still tons of flavor!
Even Dr.Oz mentioned Spike Seasonings "Salt Free Magic" as a great all natural alternative to salt. That's a huge endorsement!
Our Dinner: We didn't use salt at all in this meal to see if we would miss it.
We used several of the seasonings for this meal. We mixed together HotNSpicy, Garlic and Onion Seasonings and put the mix in with panko bread crumbs. We coated some chicken breast and baked them in the oven. Yum! With the same meal we tried Vege-Sal, the label says it's great on a baked potato. We were up for that challenge, remember you can use Spike in place of salt. So we did. The Vege-Sal has celery, carrots, onions and more in it. What a big difference in flavor, in a good way. I even sprinkled the Salt Free Magic on our green beans, it gave them a nice boost.
Conclusion: It was delicious! We didn't miss adding salt. In fact we didn't add pepper either we just used Spike Seasonings. I can't wait to try the rest.
Spikes Seasonings - 10 Choices: Onion Magic (Salt & Gluten Free), Lemon Pepper Magic, Vege-Sal Magic, HotNSpicy Magic (Gluten Free), Original Magic (Gluten Free), Salt-Free Magic (Salt & Gluten Free), Vegit Magic (Gluten Free), Garlic Magic (Salt & Gluten Free), 5-Herb Magic (Salt & Gluten Free), Tenderizing Magic.
How to get it: Order Spike Gourmet Natural Seasonings online from Amazon or pick them up at your local health/natural food stores and grocery stores.
Posted 4/14/12 - FHS received this product free for review purposes from Spike Seasoning. All opinions expressed are solely mine.

Studies have shown that butterflies can be more numerous on land dominated by wildlife-friendly farming
Image: Stuart Elsom
For the last 25 years, many UK farmers have become wildlife champions and have rallied to the plight of some of our most threatened species by creating the conditions they need to survive.
Using payments for wildlife-friendly farming - known as agri-environment schemes - some of these 'champions' have reversed population crashes of those species most in trouble and some species, including the cirl bunting and the stone-curlew, now largely depend on wildlife-friendly farmers for their future survival in the UK.
But just as conservationists and farmers are celebrating the 25th anniversary of these schemes and what they have achieved, the RSPB is fearful that cuts to European and domestic budgets mean the axe could be wielded close to this wildlife lifeline - potentially slashing the largest single budget for wildlife conservation in the UK.
Anxiety about the threats facing this funding has compelled the RSPB and the Wildlife Trusts to write to David Cameron urging him to defend this vital lifeline when he attends the European Heads of State meeting in Brussels, which not only protects nature, but also helps the Government achieve its own conservation objectives.
David Cameron will be attending the European Heads of State meeting in Brussels - on 22-23 November - to discuss the future of the EU's budget, including the amount of money spent on agriculture.
'We know that budgets are creaking, but rewarding farmers for helping to keep wildlife on their land is excellent value for money and for taxpayers'
Darren Moorcroft is head of species and habitats conservation at the RSPB. He said: 'We know that budgets are creaking, but rewarding farmers for helping to keep wildlife on their land is excellent value for money and for taxpayers.'
Farmland wildlife is struggling as the populations of many species of birds, butterflies and bees continue to decline across the UK. The RSPB is concerned that the size of the budget for wildlife-friendly farming is already too small and in some parts of the UK funding for vital conservation projects has run out.
Darren Moorcroft added: 'The challenges facing wildlife are massive, and we believe an already unacceptably low share of EU funding goes to wildlife-friendly farming, especially when less than £7 out of every £100 spent on agriculture funds wildlife conservation. So, to consider further cuts is deeply misguided; we need more farmers helping wildlife, not less.
'Without this lifeline, we believe that several species, including the cirl bunting, which need farmers to create just the right kind of habitat, would slide inexorably towards oblivion in the UK, and other species, such as butterflies and rare plants, would inevitably decline.'
Since the first schemes were introduced in 1987, tens of thousands have helped wildlife on their land. Many - regardless of whether they produce crops, rear livestock or both - are keen advocates of the funding, which allows them to help wildlife as well as receive steady income in volatile times.
According to the latest official figures, in excess of 8.8 million hectares of land in the UK are covered by agri-environment scheme agreements. In England, over two-thirds of agricultural land is managed under a scheme.
Gethin Owen, who farms in Wales, is the Welsh winner of last year's RSPB Nature of Farming Award. He is typical of many of the farmers supportive of wildlife-friendly farming payments. He said: 'There has been a lot of good work that's been done for wildlife over the last 10 or 20 years, and there is a real danger that all that good work could be undone, while this lifeline remains under threat.'
Henry Edmunds, who has a mixed arable and livestock farm in Wiltshire, is the winner of the 2012 RSPB Nature of Farming Award. He said: 'I think it would be an absolute disaster if these schemes were to stop.'
Dale Clanfield, who farms in the Fens of East Anglia, said: 'I love helping the wildlife on my farm, but I wouldn't be able to afford to keep doing it if it wasn't for funding from Europe. I'd rather see the money go towards supporting environmentally-friendly farming than just given out as subsidies.'
David Cameron will be meeting his European counterparts in Brussels on 22 and 23 November. The RSPB is calling on all those who care about the future of the funding that benefits our countryside to step up for nature and email him.
Call on David Cameron to get more for our money from the EU budget to invest in our countryside and our future.

Pit Boss on Animal Planet
Former actor, entertainment guru and pit bull rescuer Shorty Rossi has lofty ideals, a tough attitude and an entertainment industry Rolodex to help his cause. And he's gathered together three friends/employees; Ronald, Ashley and Sebastian, to take on the gargantuan task of rescuing, rehabbing and training the most misunderstood of dogs — pit bulls.
Shorty's love for pit bulls dates back to age 14 when he got his first pit – a year after he began living on his own. His pit bull was his constant companion and helped ease Shorty through a tough adolescence. After being convicted for gang-related activities and serving 10 years in prison, Shorty committed to turning around his life; he avows that pit bulls helped make him a better person, and in return, he pledges to help make their lives better in any way he can.
"Pit bulls have a bad rap," says Shorty, "though they don't deserve it at all. It's what people have done to these
pits or how they have trained them that caused this horrible misperception. Pit bulls are
beautiful and energetic
dogs that make wonderful companions and have the ability to bring out the best in just about any one – the
elderly, children, the handicapped, and yes... even the little people of this world!"
Shorty began his rescue in 2001, and since then, he, along with his team, works tirelessly to help pit bulls and repair their reputation. In PIT BOSS, follow Shorty, Sebastian, Ronald and Ashley as they hit the streets of LA in their fight to overcome stereotypes – for themselves and the pit bulls they save.
SIX SEASONS! (schedule below)PIT BOSS ran for six seasons and has come to an end.

The year's almost up, and it's time for 360Zine to talk up our favourite 10 360 games of the year. It's been a stunning 12 months, summed up by some of the games that DIDN'T make the top 10. Here are the games that did…
- Super Street Fighter IV
It's a refinement, an expansion even, but Super Street Fighter IV is almost certainly the finest one-on-one fighter ever made. A game so meticulously designed that every single frame counts, and one so balanced and deep that players are still discovering ways to take advantage of new characters 10 months after release. It's also an example of how to treat the online side of the fight game: lobbies, tournaments super-smooth connections and a mammoth replay theatre. And it's not even a full-price game. Magnificent.
- Halo Reach
This time, Bungie really meant it. The team threw everything into Halo Reach to ensure it was a fitting goodbye to THE shooter series of the decade. A new engine underpinned the action, which was simultaneously classic Halo and utterly relevant, giving us some seriously memorable skirmishes to battle through. This is how single-player shooters should be – battling against AI and the environment instead of just popping and blasting duck-shoot enemies. Throw on the multiplayer and you have a monstrous package.
- BioShock 2
None were expecting much from Bioshock 2. Worries about a change in focus from ambience to action, plus the (admittedly average) multiplayer meant that our once-proud memories of Rapture were about to be spoiled, right? Wrong. Instead, we got another memorable journey into the deep, fleshed out with stronger gunplay than before and a couple of beautifully pitched set pieces. Brilliant from beginning to end.
- Limbo
Not many games get people intellectualising as well as interacting, but Limbo's classy mechanics and gloomy melancholy did just that. The tale of a small boy's treacherous trip through the woods (and city, and factory) was short but perfectly formed, and one of 2010′s most interesting gaming experiences. How many platformers send chills down your spine? Exactly.
- Battlefield Bad Company 2
Single player? Not so much. Multiplayer, though, yes please. Probably the best online shooter of 2010 (and that's quite an achievement) and still being supported to this day, Battlefield Bad Company is a masterclass in cinematic online action. It's a game full of moments, where an inaccurate medic can do just as much for a team as a deadeye sniper, and games become true epics. It's not often you can use an online shooter for gaming anecdotes. In BFBC 2, there's barely a match without one.
- Mass Effect 2
By stripping out the stats and focusing on the role-playing, Mass Effect 2 turned a whole new audience onto Bioware's work. It's a beautiful piece of work, underpinned with a rare treat for gaming – great dialogue. Add far-stronger shooting than its predecessor, and a heart-wrenching final battle, and you have the year's finest space opera and a real contender for one of the best sci-fi universes out there. In any medium.
- EA Sports MMA
A surprise entry for many, no doubt, but EA Sports MMA rose from the ashes of its terrible demo to become something quite special indeed. No other game has managed to depict such dramatic, story-worthy fights as this. It's a game that matches raw aggression with huge tactical depth, and is one of the truly rare examples of a videogame that's as fun when you lose as when you win. It's also superb online, with broadcasted live-fights (complete with real-world commentary) and no lag whatsoever. Shame no one seems to have bought it.
- Bayonetta
An early one – Bayonetta came out in January – but far from forgettable. Platinum Games' madcap brawler is the best example of a declining genre, a game with so many possibly ways to take out your bizarre opponents it boggles the mind. In the hands of the hardcore, this is one of the most satisfying and pure examples of twitch gameplay in years, and it's backed up by the kind of next-gen spectacle we've come to expect.
- Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit
Criterion is one of the best studios in the world, regardless of genre, and it has proved it once again with this marvellous reinvigoration of one of gaming's most famous names. Hot Pursuit gives you the world's greatest supercars and puts them in the world's most exciting car chases. Even the French Connection can't match some of Hot Pursuit's stand out moments. The Autolog too, which constantly taunts you with friends' scores and times, is dangerously compelling.
Hopes are always high for Rockstar epics, but few could have expected this sort of achievement. A note-perfect recreation of the Wild West through a cinephile's filter, the tale of John Marston's is a truly outstanding piece of work. Perhaps at its best during its quieter moments than when it goes all guns blazing, Red Dead Redemption succeeds in taking us to another place in time and actually making us think about how it was to live just 100 short years ago. Breathtaking.

I don't know much about how it all works, but I thought it was along these lines:
The Carbs provide the energy to your muscles so you can lift more without your muscles failing, and therefore tear the fibres better, allowing for more regrowth and size gain.
The Protein is what repairs the muscle tears, making them slightly bigger.
Sugars just help the movement on these nutrients around your body.
If this is true, then why should protein be eaten before a workout, and why carbs after? It makes sense that carbs are required around 90mins before (based on the nutrition thread), in order to give your muscles energy for the workout, and protein after, to start repairing the damage you did IN the workout. But I can't see how Protein prior would be a benefit, because your muscles arn't torn yet and there's nothing to repair, and how carbs after would be, because you've already done the workout and are no longer requiring the energy to lift more.
Cheers for the help

Awesome Company!
Damask Dream Save the Date Magnets I really enjoyed how I was able to customize my mini magnets to my colour scheme and that they offer a wide variety of colours to choose from. The magnets did not take that long to be delivered to my door step, approximently 2 weeks from the time I have placed my order. I am looking forward to purchasing my wedding invitations in the near future.
Damask Dream Save the Date Magnets I cannot say enough about magnetStreet. Their website is super easy to use and with all the designs and color choices, it's hard not to find something you'll love. I ordered a sample packet before I actually ordered my save the dates and they gave me everything I asked for and then some. I have gotten so many compliments on how cute my magnets were and how it was such a neat idea. I cannot wait to see my invitations and I know I will be just as happy with them.

Fall is in the air here in Wyoming, and the sunsets are amazing. Two of my favorite things are sunsets and Paris. I decided to blend the two in an Analogous Color Paris Card.
Analogous colors are colors next to each other on the color wheel; harmonious colors predominant in a painting such as blue/blue-violet, yellow/orange/red-orange etc. * …
I must say I loved creating this card. It went together so easily, when you have such gorgeous rich colors of Tattered Angels paints. They blend beautifully and all the mediums work so well together. I find myself just letting go and enjoying the creative process. At times it's a spiritual experience.
I researched analogous colors and chose the color palette that spoke to me…the warm violet, red violet, red and orange red colors of fall sunsets. I used Juneberry Wine and Pop Rocks Glimmer Mist for the violet; Ruby Slipper Chalkboard Mist for the red violet; Lobster Glimmer Mist for the red; and blended in the Plain Jane Stained Glass Yellow for the orange red.
I die cut using Spellbinders Labels Twenty-Three and white with black script patterned paper by Bo Bunny. I misted my colors layering on both die cuts at the same time, to keep the color pattern similar. I painted the Stained Glass Yellow on with a paint brush. I allowed to dray and used my heat gun a bit. I layered the die cut panels.
I also stamped onto white card stock using QuietFire Designs Eiffel Tower and C'est la vie stamps from Francais set, then die cut and embossed around the stamped image.
I tied some black ribbon around the panel, added 2 stick pins and a bit of bling. This card is really quick and easy to create.
I hope you enjoyed the project and tutorial today!
Thanks so much for stopping by.
