Google AdWords Location Extensions Guide: Location Extension Targeting Best Practices
The first post in our series on Google AdWords Ad Extensions will focus on AdWords location extensions. Location extensions are a feature within Google AdWords that allows you to add location data about your business to your ad:In this post we'll walk through why these extensions are important, how you can use them in your account, and when to use the extensions as well as how best to apply them.
Why Are Google AdWords Location Extensions Important?Location extensions allow you to get more real estate on the SERP and provide more information to local searchers, including a clickable phone number on mobile devices. Given that AdWords location targeting is probably more aggressive than you think, this is a pretty powerful option. Marissa Mayer noted recently that roughly 20 percent of the s... > Read more
The Ultimate Guide to Google AdWords Ad Extensions
One of the most underutilized weapons in a number of AdWords accounts is ad extensions. Ad extensions allow you to take up more real estate on the SERP, providing additional links to your site, product images and other information that can draw people in and increase your click-through rates. In this guide, we'll be walking through each of the AdWords ad extensions in detail, showing you how they work, when they work, and why you'd want to leverage them.
In this post I will provide a brief overview of each. Click the headings on each section for an in-depth look at each of the AdWords ad extensions.

Google AdWords Location Targeting: How Does AdWords Geographical Targeting Really Work?
On the surface, Google AdWords location targeting seems pretty straightforward: I tell Google where I want my ads to show and they show them only in that location. From Google's own documentation (the number one result for "adwords location targeting" for me in Google, so it must be right, right?!):For each AdWords campaign, you can select the countries or regions and the languages for your ad.
That campaign's ads will appear only to users located in those areas and who have selected one of those languages as their preference.Emphasis is mine, but it seems to confirm what one would initially, intuitively assume. If that were all that were going on though, this would be the second nice thing I wrote about Google in the last 30 days (and that after I didn't even totally pan AdWords E... > Read more
Why Is My Content Network Cost Per Click So High? 3 Mistakes New Advertisers Make
Sometimes the controls inside of an AdWords account can be pretty overwhelming and confusing. AdWords is constantly adding new features, and it sometimes becomes difficult – particularly for new to intermediate-level advertisers – to quickly diagnose certain specific issues in their account. I think this is particularly the case on the content network, as many advertisers with a limited knowledge of AdWords will have had most of their experience working with search campaigns.
One seemingly simple issue that often frustrates unfamiliar advertisers is how to control cost per click (CPC) on the content network. Today we'll talk about why your content network CPCs might be higher than they need to be, and how you can correct the issue.Mistake #1: Failure to Split Out Content and SearchThi... > Read more

How to Identify Undervalued AdWords Assets Using Assisted Conversions & Channel Groupings
I'm pretty excited about Google Analytics multi-channel funnel reports, which isn't always the case for me with new Google features. The interesting thing about this new data being available in Google Analytics is that it allows advertisers to get insight into areas of their online efforts that were creating more value for their business than they'd originally anticipated.
In this post, I'll walk through some great reports for identifying assets in your AdWords campaigns that you may have been undervaluing.Creating the Reports – Using Channel Groupings, Assisted Conversion Values, & Assisted/Last Conversion Rates to Identify Undervalued AssetsBecause they're both Google products the multi-channel reporting suite has a lot of nice prepopulated AdWords reports.

Google AdWords Topic Targeting: What Is AdWords Topic Targeting & When Should You Use It?
Last week we pointed out that Google Display Ads have been the subject of a lot of Google marketing and advertising attention recently, and of course there is a lot of opportunity on the content network in many verticals.So when Google rolls out a new display network control like topic targeting as they did in March, it's worth taking some time to better understand how the feature works and when it makes sense to utilize it.
What is AdWords Topic Targeting?Google describes topic targeting by explaining that:Using topics to contextually target your ads offers broad targeting and reach and is a good way to connect with a large audience quickly and easily to generate awareness or drive sales. When using topic targeting, our system looks at all the terms on a page to determine the t... > Read more
Google AdWords Display Ads – Google's Paying Close Attention to Display, Does that Mean You Should Too?
You can learn a lot about marketing from Google, and if you're in search marketing paying close attention to what Google says and what types of things they place emphasis on are vital to your lively-hood. This is why Matt Cuttsgets 350 comments on a post announcing a change in the algorithm that affects around 2% of queries, and it's why search marketers have a much keener interest in Google Plus and its integration in SERPs, Webmaster Tools, et al than your average social network.
So when Google starts to push something and you're a pay-per click practitioner you pay attention. Recently I've been aggressively retargeted by Google's "Watch This Space" campaign:I've also seen it on LinkedIn where I'm sure from a job title, skills, groups, and probably even demographic... > Read more
Learn Google AdWords – Learning AdWords Best Practices from Great Sources
When I outlined four definitive sources for learning about Quality Score recently on the blog I made the point that:When talking to people who are new to SEO and PPC, one thing I often caution them about is not to get bogged down by information overload.

Google AdWords Express Review: Is Google Express (AWExpress) Right for Your Small Business?
Table of Contents:ProsConsSmall Business ReviewI've been somewhat wary of new AdWords features in the past here on the blog, and have warned that sometimes what Google labels as a panacea answer to a longstanding pain point is either more of an opportunity for Google than for you or not as complete of an answer as it seems at first blush.
It probably shouldn't be any surprise that – like most people who make their living optimizing paid search accounts, among other things – I have a healthy amount of skepticism when Google offers to just make everything super easy!

Google Analytics & AdWords Tracking Issues: Multiple AdWords Accounts for One Google Analytics Account
Google does a lot of things really well, and there is a ton of utility to be had in many of their free programs, but their account permissions and cross-product integration for things like Google AdWords, Webmaster Tools, and Google Analytics can be maddening sometimes.One common issue AdWords advertisers struggle with is linking multiple AdWords accounts to a single Google Analytics account.

What to Do When Your AdWords CPCs Are Too High
An issue that is becoming more common as PPC gets increasingly competitive is escalating costs per click (CPCs) in niches that had previously been relatively uncompetitive. The problem here is that PPC campaigns that had once been profitable or that may have been viable become untenable for advertisers.
If a conversion becomes profitable for you at $75 and you're paying $15 a click, it's very difficult to run a profitable campaign.In this post, we'll look at five things you can do to try to push down those AdWords costs per click.1.

AdWords Top vs. Side Ad Performance: How to Use the Latest AdWords Report Segment
The Inside AdWords blog announced yesterday that there will be a new report segment available in AdWords accounts: top versus side. Basically the idea here is that you can see how your ads perform when they're placed above search results versus when they're placed below search results – the focus here being on physical position on the page rather than the numeric order in which the ads appear.
The report looks like this:As with any new AdWords feature, the key question to ask as you're shown more data by the folks at Google is: What can I actually do with this information? In this case the top versus side segment data can be useful in a few different ways.What to Do with AdWords Top Versus Side DataLooking at the new top vs. side reports, I see three interesting potential applicati... > Read more

Google AdWords Remarketing Strategy: Three AdWords Remarketing Tips
Google AdWords remarketing (and really remarketing in general) is a hot trend in the world of pay-per-click marketing. Remarketing is basically a way of getting your message in front of people who have visited your site in the recent past – you've no doubt seen a site you recently visited "following you around" via advertisements.
And if you're a paid search manager, you've likely set up a slew of remarketing campaigns in the last few months, many times at the specific request of the client, but there are still PPC advertisers who are either just getting their remarketing campaigns started or are still considering how much value there would be in a remarketing campaign.In this post we'll cover three important things to consider as you get your first remarketing campaigns up an... > Read more
AdWords Display Network Banners: 5 Tips for Using Crowdsourced Ad Banner Design
In a few recent posts on how to get more volume on the content network and on getting more leads from PPC, we talked about leveraging the content network to expand AdWords campaigns and attract more prospects via PPC.Most advertisers know how to get started with Google's search network, and even with creating specific content network campaigns, but an area that often trips up advertisers – particularly new advertisers or those who are looking to expand beyond their initial structures – is building out "display" campaigns using Google AdWords, or creating banner ads for display on the content network.
Many times the stumbling block here is more around designing the creative (banner ads) than around the mechanics of creating a structure for your content network campaigns.For that r... > Read more

AdWords Position Preference Bidding Is Retired: What You Need to Know About AdWords Average Position

No-Bake Coconut Icebox Cake
Since I started my teaching career at a low-income, inner city school, I've been on a journey to understand my own privilege. I'm a white, middle-class Christian in a place and time when that identity confers benefits on me that I didn't need to work for. It's not my fault, per se, but then again this isn't about blame: it's about educating myself, making the inequities transparent, and being purposeful about correcting them. It's not my fault the system is flawed, but if I ignore it and continue to profit from it, I'm complicit. That doesn't sit well with me.
Privilege can be hard to see, so I like to use a concrete example. One privilege I experience is feeling like a have a default appearance in society. I see people of my race on magazine covers, movie and television screens, and book covers wherever I look, and they're not being used as tokens to represent the white race. They're "default characters." In fact, Woody Allen (don't get me started) once said, when asked why he didn't cast more black actors in his films, "[I don't] unless I write a story that requires it. You don't hire people based on race. You hire people based on who is correct for the part."
Did you catch that? How Allen made white people "default" in that statement? Unless a role specifically requires a black actor, whatever that means, Allen "doesn't hire based on race," by which he clearly means, "I hire white people, duh."
This is just a teeny tiny example of a privilege I have on a daily basis. I try to correct for this by making sure voices of different races, genders, religions, ethnicities, and classes are heard in my classroom, so that my students see the broad range of human identity.
Peggy McIntosh wrote the iconic and extremely useful piece, White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack, to tease out more privileges she experienced. Privileges vary widely; you might not experience the same ones as McIntosh for a lot of reasons. Your identities may be different than hers (for instance, you might not share her race, gender, ability level, religion, class, sexual orientation, location.) It's also been 20 years since the article was written, so doubtless things have shifted a bit. Nevertheless, the article is a great model for self-reflection about what privileges we enjoy without realizing that they aren't extended to everyone.
I decided to share these thoughts with you, of course, because of the shooting and the subsequent media portrayal of unarmed Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri. The dramatic conflicts online in the wake of the shooting brought back memories from diversity training before I started teaching. Hundreds of newb teachers — most of us white, most of us middle- or upper-class — gathered in an auditorium to screen the film Last Chance for Eden, where 9 folks from different walks of life engage in an authentic conversation about race.
I still remember the reflexive defensiveness in the voices of those who spoke out after the movie. One person asserted, "I didn't own slaves or restrict rights. I don't understand how it's my fault. I feel blamed. I don't deserve to feel guilty." His last sentence was so telling: I don't deserve to feel guilty.
He did feel guilty. And it created a visceral indignation that he immediately sought to justify. Why should he have to bear that guilt? Why should he feel hurt and uncomfortable thinking about those people's experiences if he didn't cause them? It wasn't fair! What he didn't realize is the guilt didn't come from anyone blaming him for creating racism. It came from someone pointing out how he still benefits from it unconsciously in his every day life. From pointing out privilege. And no one did that just to hurt his feelings or to call him bad. They did that to make it transparent for him so that he can move through the world in a conscious way.
White folks, when we realize we are benefitting from privilege, we have two choices. We can fight as if someone is blaming us: "Well, it's not my fault! I didn't do anything wrong!" Or we can lay down our defensiveness and say, "I want to learn more. If I see places where I'm safer or treated better because of my skin color, I'm going to work to end that." Because while we're busy saying, "It's not my fault! I don't deserve to feel bad for this! I didn't do it," parents are teaching their kids how to avoid being shot by police. Protestors are marching with their hands up. A friend from church is relating how she was stopped and followed into her home by police officers for no reason. We need to set aside the discomfort of knowing we benefit from a flawed system and start caring about other people's much more serious discomfort.

No-Bake Coconut Icebox Cake
Recipe by: Willow Bird Baking
Yield: 10-12 servings
Finally: the easiest ever coconut cake! It's a coconut cake for the masses. Too lazy to bake? Too hot to bake? Too busy to bake? This is your coconut cake. Lucky you, because it's also totally insanely delicious. Just be sure to buy really good shortbread cookies. Enjoy!
3 cups heavy cream
6 tablespoons powdered sugar
3/4 teaspoon coconut extract
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoon coconut milk solids*
5 boxes (of 9 rounds each) large shortbread cookie rounds
1 1/2 cups shredded coconut
*In some cans, coconut milk separates into solids and liquids. If it does in yours, just use the solids. If it's more homogenized, though, that's okay — just use it as-is.
Beat together cream, powdered sugar, extracts, and coconut milk in a chilled bowl until the mixture develops stiff peaks. Arrange one box of cookies on a plate as the first layer of your "cake" — I was able to create a circle with 2 cookies in the center. Dollop about 1/5 of the whipped cream mixture on top, spreading it gently to the edges of the cookies with the back of a spoon or an offset spatula. Sprinkle about 1/5 of the coconut. Arrange another box of cookies on top of this filling. Continue alternating cookies/filling until you finish with filling on top. Sprinkle on coconut. Refrigerate overnight before serving by cutting with a sharp knife into cake slices.

Questions & Answers
Customer Reviews
Cons: The packaging is generally good. The legs were protected with cardboard and wrapped with shrink wrap and foam. The box is heavy duty. The weakness in the packaging is that the stool is not held captive inside the box, but instead can move around inside the box, bumping the sides of the box. There were several gouges in the cardboard protecting the legs and the black finish was slightly marred. A product this heavy needs to be held tight, or the sheer weight of the stool will (and did) cause damage to the legs.

It's pretty tough for Heidi NOT to look like a life-sized Barbie doll, but put her on the red carpet for Barbie's 50th birthday in a mini-polka dot dress, and we're not exactly sure who the party is celebrating. I suppose the dark accents with the chunky belt and black nail polish are supposed to read "Non-Barbie," but we're not buying it.

USC officially lost one basketball guard and gained another. Byron Wesley, last season's top scorer and rebounder, will go to Gonzaga, but local prep standout Elijah Stewart will join the Trojans.
Stewart, a 6-foot-5 guard from Westchester High, initially signed with Loyola Marymount but was allowed to leave after the firing of Coach Max Good. Scout.com first reported that Stewart would join USC.
Considered something of a late-blooming recruit, Stewart was selected as the L.A. City Section Player of the Year last season and could form a potent partnership with incoming point guard Jordan McLaughlin.
Wesley announced last month that he intended to transfer after three years at USC. Because he earned his degree, Wesley will be eligible to play his fourth and final season at Gonzaga in 2014-15.

Electronic dance music has always factored into Dan Snaith's experimental psych-pop project Caribou, and that was never truer than on 2010′s fantastic Swim. But "Can't Do Without You," the first song Snaith is sharing from Caribou's new Our Love, might surpass even Swim in terms of sheer dance-floor elation. The influence of Snaith's buddy Burial is obvious here, but as it expands from hushed intimacy to widescreen lovestruck euphoria it could also pass for a more artful take on, like, Calvin Harris or Moby. It's yet another wild reinvention from a guy who has pulled off gorgeous metamorphoses again and again, and I can't wait to hear what else Snaith has up his sleeve. In the meantime, listen to "Can't Do Without You" below.

This is a serious OMG moment. Swim was one of the best dance/electronic albums I've ever heard. I'm a little excited right now.
Eugenia | Posted on Jun 3rd -4
Sorry, I'm not very impressed about this track. I hope the rest of the album is not as repetitive. There is very little progression in it. The best track he ever written in my opinion was "Jamelia": https://vimeo.com/20432366 This track could be characterized as a modern-day classical music type of thing: it took you to a place and that place was changing. It was telling a story musically. It had its surprises too! This one instead, is the same thing over and over between the normal voice and the low voice, with two different types of music underneath that simply intensified over time but didn't fundamentally change. I can't get excited about this. It feels easy and uninteresting to me. As a listener, I want something with more depth and twists and turns.
Odessa didn't have much 'progression' to it in my opinion – it was still an amazing song. I rather like this new one, even if it doesn't touch those heights.
Eugenia | Posted on Jun 3rd -1
No, Odessa didn't either. But Jamelia did. This is why was the last track in the album. Because it was so different. I was hoping that his new album would be built around the Jamelia sound and sensibilities but instead I feel that we're getting something that we've heard before many times.
Eugenia | Posted on Jun 3rd -5

"Well this is the first track of the album. I say we wait to see what the other songs sound like before thinking he hasn't progressed."
Sorry, but that would mean that he picked the wrong song to show off his new album then. Either way, bad PR. As for "he hasn't progressed", I never said that. I meant progression within a track, along surprising twists and turns that ultimately do fit together. All that have a specific word in the musical language, but it escapes me right now. Jamelia used that motif.
Eugenia | Posted on Jun 3rd -2
Ok, I remembered the word: Thematic transformation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thematic_transformation Again, Jamelia had that in a big way, and it had a big impact to me.
Eugenia | Posted on Jun 3rd -3
Also, Burial (that is mentioned in the article), uses thematic development big time, especially in his older EP. This song above though just doesn't have any of it almost. It has two layers next to each other, clearly separated, that only intensify with time, and a repetitive lyric. It's too simple of a music for my taste. It just doesn't take me to the heights that Jamelia did. It's not as interesting.
Eugenia | Posted on Jun 3rd -1
I was referring to Kindred. However I don't agree that (if according to your theory the album gets more interesting down the line) he should have released this (essentially an intro) song as first PR song. If it's not indicative of the album, then it should not have been released IMHO.
My theory is that most of the album is like that intro song though. Just normal electronic music we've heard before. He might have 1-2 Jamelia-like songs in there or not (we will know in a month's time), but that doesn't make the whole album a masterpiece in that case. It just makes it an "ok" electronic album with 2 very good songs in it. This is not enough for me, because I truly expected more out of Caribou. I felt disappointed when I heard this earlier today. That's all.
This track is good. You need to calm it down mate.
"Let's wait to see what the other songs sound like before thinking he hasn't progressed"
"…most definitely going to be one of the better albums of 2014″
a.k.a. Don't jump to conclusions guys, because i already have.
Snaith is such a master of texture. I was floored the first time I heard the song Sun off of Swim where he totally pulled off the sonic feeling of going from below to above water and then back down. An amazing talent, this guy.
Hey Stereogum, can we get a list of top ten Dan Snaith tracks?
I'd go with:
1. Bowls
2. Bijoux
3. Melody Day
4. Jacknuggeted
5. Odessa
6. Desiree
7. She's the One
8. Yeti
9. Every Time She Turns Around It's Her Birthday
10. Jamelia
Wasn't really into Daphni or Manitoba for the record.
I just started listening to it yesterday but "A Final Warning" HAS to be one of his best songs.
Bijoux, Jacknuggeted and Every Tim She Turns Around are Manitoba tracks.
Bowls is probably my personal favorite as well.
If we're counting Manitoba songs, "I've Lived on a Dirt Road All My Life" has to be on there.
Oooh normally have a hard time ranking songs, and find it way more difficult than albums, however, for Snaith I'll stab at it.
1. Kaili
2. Brandon
3. Jamelia
4. Niobe
5. Sandy
6. Bowls
7. A Final Warning
8. Bees
9. Yeti
10. Ne Noya
kate | Posted on Jun 4th +3
Whatever. I love this and hope to make many memories to it this summer. It's both a warm breeze & a midnight cannonball splash.
I can dig of it.

GROW Award honors young Texans
Students in middle, high school eligible
Recognizing today's students are tomorrow's leaders, Texas Agriculture Commissioner Todd Staples on Monday announced the Texas Department of Agriculture will acknowledge promising young Texans with the new GROW Award.
The award Gives Recognition for Outstanding Work to middle and high school student leaders who demonstrate excellence in their pursuits inside and outside the classroom.
"The future of the Lone Star State is in the hands of today's youth," Staples said. "Leadership in the classroom, the lab, at home and in the field is vitally important to give students the training and experience needed to remain competitive in today's global job market. It is a pleasure to recognize the hardworking students in Texas who will drive the Texas economy for years to come."
The GROW Award celebrates outstanding student leaders who demonstrate excellence in either their academic or extracurricular activities. The award highlights a student's special interests, service to community and family, strong work ethic, leadership and overall character. Students can be nominated by community leaders such as teachers, coaches, school administrators, mayors, county judges or anyone else committed to recognizing youth leadership and achievement. A committee will choose a winner each month during the regular school year.
"Many people may not realize there are more than 200 different agriculture-related careers out there for our young people to explore," Staples said. "Agriculture today is technically advanced, diverse, efficient and innovative. It takes a close partnership with education to grow the knowledge and skills necessary to produce the clothes we wear, the houses we live in, the food we eat, the medicines that heal us and the energy that powers our lives."
To nominate a promising middle or high school student in your area, visit the TDA website at TexasAgriculture.gov. Once nominated, students will need to complete the online application and respond to three short-answer questions. The first GROW Award recipient will be announced Oct. 15.

Franjo Krežma
Franjo Krežma (2 September 1862 – 5 June 1881), also known as Franz Krezma in German-speaking countries, was a Croatian violinist and composer.
Born in Osijek, Croatia, he showed interest for music in his early childhood and his talent was obvious in playing the violin and gave him a reputation of an authentic violin virtuoso. Still a child, at the age of only 9 he entered the music Conservatory of Vienna, Austria as the youngest student ever, completing studies with 13, starting the spectacular European career. Already at the age of 16 Krežma was highly admired in cities across Europe like Rome, Prague, Genoa, Paris, Venice. At age 17, he became concert master of the Royal orchestra in Berlin what is today Staatskapelle Berlin.
Highly respected and admired by famous musicians like Giuseppe Verdi, Henry Vieuxtemps, Franz Liszt with whom he once played, Franjo Krežma did compose only one symphony, three overtures, several marches and dances for the orchestra. He died very young at the age of 19 due to tuberculosis.

Easy Al's 1% Wonder
Yet again, the Fed Chairman reinforced the concept of the "Greenspan put" with Tuesday's FOMC announcement. The fed funds rate will remain artificially low for as long as necessary. Go to it!
Investors, pile on the carry trade or buy some beta. Consumers, go refinance the old homestead for a third time, extracting an extra 10 grand for that Caribbean vacation you deserve. Or dump that 3-year-old SUV for a brand spanking new Hummer.
We have evolved from a manufacturing economy to a service economy to a finance economy, where people can borrow and spend their way to prosperity. You see, inflation is negligible and those 0.50% money rates implore you not to save. It all sounds fine, except for the fact that inflation is not quiescent.
I know, I read the paper like everyone else. The government says that the consumer price index is some low number like 1% or 2%, and the risk of menacing deflation is a legitimate concern. The government would never fudge something as important as the CPI, would it? But that number just doesn't smell right.
Where's the Deflation?Most of the goods and services I consume seem to be escalating in price by much more than a percent or two. My tuition bills, health care premiums, insurance costs, transportation and energy costs, home-operating expenses, are all increasing at high-single-digit or maybe even double-digit rates. Home prices in my neighborhood are skyrocketing. As for entertainment, the restaurant check, the movie tickets and the cable bill have all jumped much more than a couple percent. Deflation here? Give me a break. With my personal inflation experience so much different than government statistics, I decided to research the CPI. Here's what I discovered. First, the government removes food and energy, about 22% of the index, when calculating the core CPI. I guess if you don't eat, drive or heat your home, this would be appropriate.

CBOE Special Feature: VXN Futures Debuting Today
Major market indexes that follow US stocks tend to move in tandem. The NDX and SPX have this sort of relationship. The correlation between NDX and SPX is 0.9544 which indicates the two move very close to each other. Because the NDX and SPX track each other so closely, checking out the relationship between the VIX and VXN is worth taking a look at. The chart below shows the VIX and VXN relationship between VIX and VIX for the twelve months leading up to April 30, 2012.
This VIX and VXN tracked each other very closely over this period of time. Looking at data going back to 2004 these two volatility indexes have a correlation of 0.8953. It may be difficult to see on this chart, but about 90% of trading days the VXN trades at a premium to the VIX. The table below breaks the relationship between VXN and VIX down on a yearly basis going back to 2004.
Note there are years where the VXN is always at a premium to the VIX. However, looking at the last four rows of the table the relationship between the VXN and VIX has been pretty stable. Thinking of the spread as the VXN minus the VIX the spread has been positive more often than not. If the futures contracts follow a similar pattern, spread trading opportunities between SPX and NDX volatility using VIX and VXN futures will certainly emerge.
Directional trading with VXN futures or spreading VXN versus VIX futures are just a couple of potential uses for these new volatility futures. I plan on watching the activity and seeing what else pops out at me as these futures gain some traction. If you have some thoughts feel free to shoot me an email at email@example.com or leave comments here.

There's long been a natural tie-in between firefighting and baseball, what with the Sporting News honoring the game's top closer with the Fireman of the Year Award from 1960-2000, although the honor has been called Reliever of the Year since 2001.
Whatever the name, New York has the past two winners, with the Yankees adding Rafael Soriano -- over Brian Cashman's objections -- to the bullpen headed by Mariano Rivera.
All of which is why I was somewhat confused as to why the New York Mets sent starting pitchers R.A. Dickey and Mike Pelfrey to the Fire Department of New York training facility, along with honcho Jeff Wilpon, to train as firemen Thursday.
Then I realized that one of the Mets' best relievers last season, Hisanori Takahashi, is an Angel now. Another, Pedro Feliciano, is a Yankee.
And Mets closer Francisco Rodriguez sort of has anger issues that might not fit so well at such a public-service event.
