Hope for Japan
Posted: August 14th, 2014
August 11, 2014
We were blessed to host a team from our sending church, First Baptist Church Arlington. They came to help with our VBS at Taitomi Church and Sakata Mission Church. It was their second time to come to Japan and we were excited that they wanted to come back. Mary, Martha, and Kristen were so much fun to have around on both trips. They are teachers by profession and it shows because they have connected with the kids so well. The team also went with us to Sakata to encourage the pastor's family and also to minister to children in the community. It was the first time that they met Susanne who was already hard at work helping the Fujii family. One of the most touching moments was when we arrived in Sakata. When class started the kids sang the welcome song that Kirsten taught them two years ago. It was awesome to hear them singing in English to the team. It was great to see so many friendships rekindled throughout the two weeks this team served with us in Japan. As we drove to the train station to send the team off I asked them what was one thing they would remember most about this trip. Kristen was so impressed with the patience of the Christians here who minister in a very difficult religious setting. Mary and Martha both agreed what a blessing it was to see the kids again and to share God's love with them. Please pray that the Spirit will continue to work on the hearts of everyone they met. This was truly an encouraging group of ladies. Thank you as always Mary, Martha, and Kristen, for being here. We look forward to serving with you again. And thank you to FBCA and to their families for allowing them to be serve.
They were so proud!
They learned many Bible songs.
These kids loved the special gift from Texas!
Visiting the Christian kindergarten in Sakata.
Loved spending time with the Fujii family and the church members.

A brief stop in a small marine museum reveals a reasonably well-preserved Coelacanth. That's the fish scientists knew had existed in the Devonian period up to 400 million years ago, and dying out in the Cretaceous period about65 millions years ago - it was merely an ancient fossil - a sign of the survival of the fittest and disappearance of the least adaptable. And then one was caught off the coast of South Africa in 1938.... Then hundreds more were caught off the coast of East Africa in the years since. The Coelacanth had made a remarkable comeback from ancient extinction!
It has been found to be in exactly the same form as it was supposed to have been hundreds of millions of years ago - then living alongside various dinosaurs. So, pay no attention to that squirming evolutionist behind the curtain - listen to the great and powerful OZ!
But I digress; back to Saint Denis. The sun came out fully and it became very hot. We had a cold dodo beer in the garden caf�. The local beer is actually called Bourbon. That's the brand name, taken from the royal family of France: the Bourbons - you may not have known that was Louis XIV last name! The island of Reunion was also named after the Bourbons for a while. All that may well be, but I think calling beer bourbon is really confusing things. However, to add an extra twist to the story, since the beer label has the silhouette of a dodo bird (which lived in this part of the world only) on it, local folks don't actually call the beer Bourbon even though that is its name; they call it dodo. In Creole the advertising posters read "la dodo l� la" (roughly translated "the dodo is here"). It's actually not a commentary on those who drink too much, it's meant in an endearing way.
Laval and I continued our discussion of Creole translations, local history, Coelacanths, the Bible, and church concerns among other things as we walked and sweated and sweated even more after drinking a beer! But it was a pleasant moment and worth it, even if I'd be wearing the same clothes for the next 24 hours. We started making our way back down to the water, probably two kms away. It was downhill going back, which was good. We strolled through some colorful pedestrian streets, and I bought some postcards.
We drove back to the Prodigues home where we had another delightfully tropical lunch, again outside on the porch. Then I went and repacked my bags for the upcoming flights. My flight was to leave at 7:00, so I took my leave of Patricia and Thierry, and Laval and I drove to the airport a bit before 5:00. At the airport I was told the flight wouldn't leave until 7:30 and that Air Mauritius wouldn't start checking in passengers for an hour. The delays and waiting began. I thanked Laval very warmly for their kind welcome and hospitality and told him I would come again if I could and as soon as I reasonably could. It's hard to tear one's self away in such situations.
Now I'm waiting for my flight back to Mauritius to connect to the Paris flight.
Hi Joel,
Great photos of Reunion. The architecture portrays a colonial aspect. It must have been humid and hot the day you walked with Laval. Wow, what a great shot of the coelecanth--another embarrassing 'mistake' for evolutionists.
Fascinating to hear about the Coelacanth and to see a picture of it! In fact, since I've never been to La Reunion, the pictures gave me a better idea of the island. It seems more modern that I thought -- at least La rue de Paris. Indeed it's hard to depart when one knows these people are so isolated from others of the same mind and without a minister able to guide and teach them.

Haha, I remember hearing this when I watched "Dumbass Mario".
Love this song! Cute and perky!
The beginning is so cute. Then it progresses into something else. It transforms into a peaceful song. Very nice.
When it got to this part, I was surprised. It was sounding so peaceful, then it jumps into that. Haha, I liked it!
This sounded a little weird to me. A mistake perhaps?
Overall, I loved this song! ^^

Will you be attending Easter Vigil Mass?
Find a Conversation
Will you be attending Easter Vigil Mass?
|Thu, 04-05-2012 - 10:34pm
One of these years, I want the family to go to Indy for the Easter Vigil Mass at the church where I was baptized.
|Thu, 04-26-2012 - 6:25pm
We went. My boys have served at the Easter Vigil for about the past six years, and this year I was in the schedule to serve, too. It is always beautiful. Our current priest likes to keep things simple and moving, so I think we lose some of the beauty, but even so. With our previous priest, it was quite a production, each person with their own candle, bells, just a feeling of celebration.

Every week we'll pick a handful of awesome comics from the thousands available through Marvel Digital Comics Unlimited. From creator spotlights to editor's picks and more, this'll be your spot to find something new and cool.
As the Fantastic Four take a much-needed inter-dimensional vacation, an all-new, all-different host of heroes will take their place. Ant-Man, Medusa, Miss
The Queen of an alien aristocracy, when Medusa of the incredible Inhumans first met the FF, she actually stood as a foe to the First Family. As a matter of fact, the flame-locked firebrand once ran with a decidedly different crew: the Frightful Four! Alongside the Wizard, Paste Pot Pete and the Sandman, Medusa battled the true FF as their villainous opposites, going so far as to crash Reed and Sue's engagement party! See what happens when a little teenage rebellion and super strong prehensile hair collide!
While the Trapster attempts to infiltrate the Baxter Building, the Fantastic Four, sans Susan
Scott Lang, Ant-Man, has no problem throwing down with the Masters of Evil or Taskmaster, but sparring with his ex-wife and Child Services over custody of his daughter won't be so easy. Forced out of Cassie's life save for the weekends, Scott heads to Avengers Mansion to join the team full-time, only to run into the angry and irradiated Jack of Hearts. Furious at the cards life has dealt, neither can see their similarities. Will these two bury the hatchet and work together within Earth's Mightiest Heroes, or will they tear the team apart?
Stuffy scientists afraid of tomorrow, entrenched in the dusty archaic halls of academia won't save the world; Reed Richards knows that. That's why he creates the Future Foundation, a beacon of energy and optimism, a blazing light to guide mankind to the future. Mr. Fantastic gathers some of the grea
With the tragic death of Johnny Storm, the FF decides to take on a few new members, so the sensational Spider-Man ditches his red and blue duds for a slick new black and white getup. Of course right when Spidey joins up A.I.M. frees the Wizard from his remote prison, causing chaos and confusion. The Thing, Mr. Fantastic, the Invisible Woman, and the Wall-Crawler smash some of the beekeepers, but the Wizard escapes, which will undoubtedly mean trouble in the future. But when Doctor Doom appears in the Baxter Building? That means trouble for the FF right now!

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Encourages Investors Who Suffered Substantial Losses Investing In Patriot Coal Corporation To Contact The Firm
NEW YORK, Oct. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential securities fraud at Patriot Coal Corporation ("Patriot Coal" or the "Company") (OTCQB: PCXCQ).
The investigation focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by failing to disclose that: (1) certain Patriot Coal officers had disclosed misguiding statements regarding the Company's business prospects; (2) as such, the Company had violated Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules by failing to correctly account for costs associated with Court-ordered remediation obligations related to the Company's selenium water treatment requirements; (3) Patriot Coal officers had improperly capitalized these costs instead of recording them as expenses, thereby overstating the Company's financial results. In response to comments received from the SEC regarding the Company's accounting for the Court-ordered remediation costs, defendants were forced to reveal that the Company's previously issued consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 could no longer be depended upon. Moreover, Patriot Coal officers admitted that it was necessary to restate the Company's previously issued consolidated financial statements to accrue a liability and recognize a loss for the estimated costs of installing the Court-ordered water treatment facilities. On July 9, 2012, Patriot Coal shocked the market when it announced that it and substantially all of its wholly owned subsidiaries have filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. When the true state of the Company's business health became public, Patriot Coal's shares dropped 72%, from a closing pricing of $2.19 on July 6, 2012, to a closing price of $0.61 at the end of the day on July 9, 2012.

Hall Monitor: Crushing, Curses and the Killer
Things have settled down for me a bit with our publication season, which means the return of my favorite stat-based blog feature, the Hall Monitor. There's been a lot already this season that has made 2011 special, including Braves icon Chipper Jones setting career marks by collecting his 1,500th RBI and passing Mickey Mantle on switch-hitters RBI leader board. We've had lots of great pitching, including two no-hitters – Francisco Liriano's cap and game ball made it to the Hall earlier this week – and several near misses. So here's what's been going lately:
Giambi's first three: Jason Giambi, the former Yankee-A's All-Star slugger turned Rockies part-timer, collected his first three homer game last night to lead Colorado over Philly 7-1. Showing he's still got some power in the tank, Giambi pulled a comparison to Stan the Man. Stan Musial at 41 years old is the oldest player to hit three home runs in a game, beating out Giambi, who at age 40 years, 131 days is now the second-oldest player to do it.
With 416 homers before Thursday's contest, he also has the highest total before his fiDerek Jeterrst three homer game in Major League history aside from Babe Ruth, who had 522 career dingers before his first three home run performance. Coincidentally enough, Ruth also collected his first three home run game against Philadelphia – but playing in the AL, it was against the A's not the Phillies.
Another feather in his cap: Derek Jeter likes hitting against the Birds and this week he added one more feat to his growing list of accomplishments on his journey to reach 3,000 hits. With career hit No. 300 against the Orioles, the Yankees captain became the first player with 300 hits against one franchise since Hall of Famer Tony Gwynn retired after the 2001 season. Mr. Padre had at least 300 against Atlanta, Cincinnati, Houston and San Francisco.
Fall Classic mixing and matching: Interleague Play, which begins tonight, always brings some interesting matchups, from the geographic rivals like the 2000 World Series Subway Series rematch of Mets-Yankees, the Bay Bridge Series re-matching the 1989 Fall Classic combatants in Oakland and San Francisco or the I-70 Series 1985 rematch of St. Louis and Kansas City.
But this year brings a rare pairing of the formerly cursed Red Sox hosting the still-cursed Cubs. The Northsiders will be back in Fenway for the first time since the 1918 World Series – which began a drought of 86 years without a title the following year. Saturday night will pair the two in throwback uniforms and several icons from the teams will be around Beantown like Bill Buckner
Mourning the Killer: The Hall of Fame and the baseball community lost a great man and an incredibly talented ballplayer this week with the passing of Harmon Killebrew. His funeral service was held today in Peoria, Ariz., with several Hall of Famers in attendance including 2011 Electee Bert Blyleven, Rod Carew, Paul Molitor, Robin Yount, Frank Robinson and Hall of Fame President Jeff Idelson. Next Thursday, Twins fans will have their chance to show their love for Killebrew with a public Memorial Service at Target Field in Minnesota starting at 7 p.m.

Dan Quisenberry: Fireman of the Year
Dan Quisenberry was never the type to grab headlines and national attention. He was a solid performer and a reliable closer. He won a World Series and appeared in every game of another Fall Classic. He pitched 12 seasons in the Majors, but he was anything but a typical ballplayer.
Quiz wrote poetry. He was a shutdown reliever, but he relied not on a blow-away fastball but pinpoint control, deception and a submarine delivery that confused hitters and earned him the nickname "The Australian," because he came from down under.
He might have been the wackiest guy to play for the Royals – though with personalities like "The Mad Hungarian" Al Hrabosky having worn a K.C. uniform that might be a tough title to hold. But in Kansas City, everyone who slots into the back of the Royals bullpen must live up to Quiz.
Growing up in Kansas City, I've gotten a steady diet of two things – bad baseball to watch and plenty of chatter about the team's successful past. Quisenberry is talked about with great respect. I was at his Induction to the Royals Hall of Fame and remember the sadness throughout the Metro area when he passed away after a bought with brain cancer.
A unique personality off the field, when Quisenberry took the mound hitters could expect a fight and lots of strikes. Using the solid defense behind him, he picked away at the zone. He gave up just 11 walks in 1983 and 12 in 1984 over a combined 268 innings, and was runnerup for the Cy Young Award in both years.
As guys like Hall of Famers Rollie Fingers, Goose Gossage and Bruce Sutter began to define the modern day closer, in some ways Quisenberry was right there. He set the single season record for saves in 1983 with 45 – a mark that is still tied for tops in the Royals record books. It was the first time any pitcher had reached 40 saves in a single season. In 1984 Quiz threatened his own record, ending the season with 44, while Sutter saved 45. The two shared the mark until Dave Righetti got 46 in 1986. Jeff Reardon joined Quisenberry as the only pitchers with a pair of 40-save seasons in 1988 and then in 1992, he broke Quiz's AL saves record, a mark he'd held since passing Fingers in 1987.
As the position of closer evolved in the 1980s, several pitchers put their stamp on the game, but today's advanced metrics show how good Quisenberry was. His Adjusted ERA+ (which factors ballpark tendencies and season averages) of 146 ties him for fifth all-time. The names above him: Mariano Rivera, Pedro Martinez, Jim Devlin and Lefty Grove. He's tied with Water Johnson and Hoyt Wilhelm. His career rate of 1.4 walks per nine innings pitched is the lowest since 1926 and fifth lowest since 1901.
One lasting impression Quiz holds on the closer position is his ties to the Rolaids Relief Man of the Year Award (originally called Fireman of the Year). From 1980 to 1985, he earned five gold-plated firefighter's helmets, including four in a row. During that span he yeilded only the 1981 honors to Fingers (who won four in his career). Rivera is the only pitcher to match Quiz's five Awards and noone has won more than two in a row.
Through the years, Quiz has become one of my favorite players, and the bobblehead of him wearing a fireman's hat that sits on my desk is one of my favorite pieces of memorabilia not only because of the record it represents, but the player and story behind it. The Hall of Fame's newest exhibit, One for the Books, which opens May 28, is focused on that exact concept. It seeks to not only glorify the game's greatest records, but the rich stories behind the records.

Hall Monitor: The Final Tallies Are In
By Trevor Hayes
We've had a champion for several weeks now, but with last week's announcement of the final major BBWAA Awards, the 2010 season is complete. Now it's time to look back a little and then move on to 2011. During the next few weeks, we should see a flurry of free agent activity, starting with the Winter Meetings, which begin this weekend in Orlando.
Less can be more: Last week, Josh Hamilton handily won the AL MVP Award. Hobbled by broken ribs and playing in 133 games, he's only the second position player over the last 30 years to play in that few games (with the exception of strike-shortened seasons) and be named league MVP. In fact, he's only the fifth player to ever earn the Award after playing 133 or fewer during a full 162 game season. The others are the Giants' Barry Bonds in 2003, the Royals' George Brett in 1980, the Pirates' Willie Stargell in 1979 and the Yankees' Mickey Mantle in 1962. Like Hamilton, Brett and Mantle both suffered injuries that held them out for long periods of time, while Bonds and Stargell were slowed by age.
Twice as nice: With Awards Season coming to a close, the AL champion Rangers now boast the hardware to back-up the run to their first-ever World Series appearance. Josh Hamilton's MVP Award and Neftali Feliz's Rookie of the Year Award, make them the 13th pair of teammates to sweep both Awards in a year – not including 1975 and 2001 when Fred Lynn and Ichiro Suzuki won both Awards, respectively.
Of the 13 pairs, Hamilton and Feliz join eight others in reaching the World Series. The others were Jackie Robinson and Don Newcombe (1949 Dodgers), Yogi Berra and Gil McDougald (1951 Yankees), Roy Campanella and Jim Gilliam (1953 Dodgers), Mickey Mantle and Tony Kubek (1957 Yankees), Mantle and Tom Tresh (1962 Yankees), Joe Morgan and Pat Zachry (1975 Reds), Willie McGee and Vince Coleman (1985 Cardinals) and Jose Canseco and Walt Weiss (1988 A's).
It should also be noted that Lynn's 1975 Red Sox made the World Series and Suzuki's 2001 Mariners finished the regular season with the best record in baseball, but lost in the ALCS.
Joey joins Reds' best: Ten different Cincinnati Reds have been honored with the National League's MVP Award. Joey Votto became the 10th last week after he denied Albert Pujols his fourth Award, which would have put the Cardinal slugger into rarified air as only the second player to collect more than three MVPs.
Votto's honor links his name with Reds MVPs like Hall of Famers like Johnny Bench (1970, 1972), Joe Morgan (1975-76), Frank Robinson (1961) and Ernie Lombardi (1938).
Vlad and Texas heaping it on: It's not a major award, but some major names have been attached to it. This year's recipient of the Outstanding Designated Hitter Award, Vladimir Guerrero, gave the Rangers yet another piece of hardware last Wednesday to celebrate 2010.
Renamed after Edgar Martinez in 2004, the list of former winners extends beyond the longtime Mariners legend. Among the Hall of Famers to take home the honor are inaugural winner Orlando Cepeda (1973), Jim Rice (1977), Dave Winfield (1992) and Paul Molitor (1993, 1996).
150 Million Dollar Man: Troy Tulowitzki will be staying in Colorado for the next 10 years and that's just fine with the slugging shortstop. Not only did he sign a deal this week that will pay him an average of $15 million a year until 2020, but he's now got a shot to be like his idol, Hall of Famer and Oriole legend Cal Ripken Jr., and stay with one team for his entire career. Of the 292 Hall of Famers, 47 spent their entire playing career with one team. Aside from Ripken, the only other shortstops in that group were the White Sox's Luke Appling, the Cubs' Ernie Banks, the New York Giants' Travis Jackson, the Yankees' Phil Rizzuto, the Pirates' Honus Wagner and the Brewers' Robin Yount.
Hall of Famers around town: Bob Costas brings three more Hall of Fame names to his show tonight on MLB Network. Big Red Machine cogs Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan and Tony Perez, will be Studio 42 tonight at 8 p.m. ET.
In other Reds news, the team's annual winter celebration, Redsfest, will feature tributes to Sparky Anderson. More than 60 current and former Reds players will be on hand tonight and tomorrow at the Duke Energy Convention Center in Cincinnati.
Tomorrow, Tigers legend Al Kaline will be at the Comerica Park Retail Shop. The Hall of Famer will be promoting and signing copies of his book "SIX: A Salute to Al Kaline."
And as the Winter Meetinsg convene this weekend, several Hall of Famers will be in Orlando to participate in the Expansion Era Committee's Hall of Fame Induction voting. The 16-person committee will vote on Sunday and includes Bench, Whitey Herzog, Eddie Murray, Jim Palmer, Perez, Frank Robinson, Ryne Sandberg and Ozzie Smith. Results will be announced on Monday at baseballhall.org.

Hall Monitor: Award Season Begins
By Trevor Hayes
Awards, prizes, honors. No matter what you call them, they serve as validation for a year of hard work on the diamond.
First up were the Gold Glove Awards on Tuesday and Wednesday and the Silver Sluggers yesterday.
Rolen along: Reds third baseman Scott Rolen won his eighth Gold Glove on Wednesday. Now only two third basemen have won the award more than Cincy's man at the hot corner, Hall of Famers Brooks Robinson (16) and Mike Schmidt (10).
Meanwhile the New Red Machine, which reached the playoffs for the first time since 1995, placed two other Reds among this season's Gold Glove winners. Second baseman Brandon Phillips earned his second award and pitcher Bronson Arroyo won his first. The last time Cincinnati had more than one Gold Glove was over four straight years when the quartet of center fielder Cesar Geronimo, shortstop Dave Concepcion and future Hall of Famers Johnny Bench (catcher) and Joe Morgan (second baseman) won the awards from 1974 to 1977.
Joining the greats: Ichiro Suzuki has played 10 years in the majors and his numbers seem automatic: 10 All-Star selections, 10 200-hit seasons, 10 seasons with 30-plus stolen bases, 10 seasons with an average over .300 and now 10 Gold Gloves. Among outfielders, only two men have more Gold Gloves and just three others have received 10 trophies from Rawlings. Matching Ichiro at 10 apiece are Andruw Jones, Ken Griffey Jr., and Hall of Famer Al Kaline. But Ichiro is still looking up at Hall of Famers Willie Mays and Roberto Clemente, who each earned the award 12 times.
Carl among select in left: Also on Tuesday, the Rays' Carl Crawford won his first Gold Glove – and he did it as a left fielder. Over the last three decades in the American League, center fielders have dominated the Gold Glove Awards, with right fielders earning sporadic recognition (aside from Ichiro Suzuki's 10 straight). Since 1958, when the Award was separated by league, nine men have earned 18 Gold Gloves as a left fielder – seven of which went to Carl Yastrazemski. Over the last 30 years, just four men have taken home the honor. The last before Crawford was Darin Erstad in 2000. Before him were Hall of Famers Dave Winfield (two straight in 1982 and 1983) and Rickey Henderson (1981).
"Fly away": 2008 Ford C. Frick Award winner Dave Niehaus passed away Wednesday night at the age of 75. For fans in the Seattle area, there will be an open house at Safeco Field from noon to 3 p.m. PT Saturday for fans to gather and reflect upon the Voice of the Seattle Mariners. There will be no formal program, but fans are invited to sign a remembrance book for the Niehaus family. There is also an online tribute page for available at www.mariners.com/dave, where fans can post messages and see highlights of his career.
No. 5 on Studio 42: Bob Costas' MLB Network show Studio 42, which revisits baseball great moments through interviews with key players and Hall of Famers alike, premieres tonight. The first episode will feature George Brett, who will join Costas in an hour-long conversation starting at 8 p.m. ET to talk about his career. Topics will include Brett's chase for .400, the pine tar incident, the Royals 1985 Championship along with their rivalry with the Yankees and more. Included during the program will be thoughts on Brett from fellow Hall of Famer and longtime nemesis on the diamond, Goose Gossage – the bulldog relief pitcher who faced Brett during several memorable battles.

Future history
By Bill Francis
It has been a decade since Hank Conger visited the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum. His bat is staying for good.
Conger came away with Most Valuable Player honors for the 2010 Futures Game held at Angel Stadium on Sunday afternoon. He donated the bat he used to club a three-run home run with two out in the fifth inning off of Henderson Alvarez that gave his U.S. Team a 5-1 lead on the way to a 9-1 victory over the World Team.
Conger, a switch-hitting Angel farmhand playing catcher for the Triple-A Salt Lake City squad, finished the game batting 1-for-3.
"It's awesome," said Conger in the winning team's clubhouse after the game, referring to being asked to donate his bat. "It's a great honor. I wasn't really expecting it, to be honest."
The Hall of Fame has made it a point over the years to ask for an artifact from the game's MVP honoree.
"The Futures Game showcases the greatest minor leaguers," said Hall of Fame President Jeff Idelson, "and by being able to represent them and document them in Cooperstown before they make that final step in a lot of ways talks about the journey of all major league players."
It was Idelson who first approached Conger, who grew up 15 miles from Angels Stadium in Huntington Beach, Calif.,about the possible donation.
"I was like, 'Really, you want my bat?'" said Conger with a laugh. "This whole event has been great, so to have that be in the Hall of Fame is just unbelievable."
Conger knows of the Hall of Fame firsthand, having visited back in the summer of 2000 as a 12-year-old when his travel baseball team from California played in one of the Cooperstown-area baseball camps.
"I loved Cooperstown," Conger said. "I was really expecting something different. You think its going to be in a big city, but there was just so much green. Even for me as a little kid I thought it was an awesome view.
"The Hall of Fame, just looking at everything that was in there, the jerseys, the plaques, for any baseball fans it's a must."
Asked if had any more hits left in the bat, Conger smiled and said: "For the Hall of Fame, I'm pretty sure I'll be able to give that one up.
"And I'll get to tell everybody for the rest of my life that I have something in the Hall of Fame."

Destined for Cooperstown
By Trevor Hayes
It sometimes seems that things here in Cooperstown are just destined to go right.
Don't get me wrong, the staff at the Baseball Hall of Fame is extremely dedicated, very knowledgeable and good at what they do – executing plans to make the Hall of Fame perfect. But some stories take an extra little bit of chance to become truly special. My most recent example came Monday in the form of a donation by my mother of some photos of two current Royals stars, including 2009 Cy Young winner Zack Greinke.
As a native Kansas Citian, it takes a holiday or other big event to see my family. But after last year's Hall of Fame Classic, I knew I had to get my parents to Cooperstown for the 2010 event. Not just to celebrate Father's Day with my dad – sharing a game we both love – but to reconnect that baseball bond with my mother too, who played countless hours of catch with me in the backyard while waiting for dad to get home form work and take me to practice.
At every opportunity, I pestered them about a trip out. In late September, I went to a wedding and on the Sunday after, my family went to Kauffman Stadium. Greinke was starting and I hadn't seen him in person all season. I'd followed his year from the scoreless streak in April to his 1-0 complete game loss in Anaheim when he had pitches touch every speed from 66 to 96 mph. I tuned in early to the All-Star Game to make sure I didn't miss a second. I wished people at work "Happy Greinke Day" on the days he started. It was can't miss TV and I shared it with my parents, chatting about my hometown team throughout the season.
On that warm September day, Greinke was his usual self. He went seven innings and allowed just one run. He struck out eight, including eventual batting champ and MVP Joe Mauer twice. During the game, my mom snapped some photos with her new camera.
Before leaving Missouri over the holidays, she slipped an envelope into my bag. Inside were photos she'd printed of family and my girlfriend and I. The last couple were photos of Greinke and 2008 All-Star Joakim Soria. I was surprised. My mother has always been creative, knitting and doing flower arrangements. I'd even seen her still-life and nature photos. But her action shots were exceptional, especially since they were from Row Double-S.
Just before the start of the 2010 season, I got my parents to commit to a visit during Father's Day. At the same time, our staff updates our Today's Game exhibit, outfitting the lockers with artifacts from the previous season. Shortly after the update I was reminded of the photos when I saw hanging in the Royals locker a powder blue jersey – the team's staple attire for home day games. Greinke gave the Hall of Fame his jersey from his final home start, which turned out to be the last win of his Cy Young campaign.
It had crossed my mind that my mom should donate the photos, and now I was sure. Her photos are of Greinke wearing the same jersey that's on exhibit. I called and told her that when they came for the Hall of Fame Classic, she should donate the photos. Worried about the quality, she wasn't so sure.
On Monday, my mother, father and myself presented her five prints – three of Greinke and two of Soria – to photo archivist Pat Kelly. Pat gushed. The quality was professional level and they filled a void in the archives – neither player had hard copy files. The fact that Greinke is wearing the same jersey that's in the collection sweetened the deal.
A bit of chance played into my trip in September happening in the same weekend of the Royals final home stand. Luck let the rotation fall just right. And by coincidence or fate, my family is extremely proud of my mother and we now have a special moment to cap a great weekend in Cooperstown.

Lucky 10,000
By Trevor Hayes
Colby Lessmann became a fan of the Hall of Fame on Facebook last week because he wanted to stay in touch. Little did he know that by clicking the "Become a fan" button on www.facebook.com/baseballhall, he'd be getting more than updates on his News Feed.
Lessmann just happened to be Facebook fan number 10,000 – a mark the Hall reached in just over a year after launching on Opening Day 2009. To honor him, the Hall of Fame has given away an individual membership. As a Member, Lessmann receives a subscription to the Hall's bi-monthly Memories and Dreams magazine, a Hall of Fame Yearbook, complimentary admission, a Tom Seaver membership card and lapel pin and a 10 percent discount and free shipping on all purchases through the Hall of Fame store at www.baseballhall.org/shop.
A baseball-lifer, Lessmann has been a fan since his early childhood, continuing to play the game through college and now as an amateur at age 37. He grew up four hours north of Kansas City and watched the glory years of the Royals, led by Hall of Famer George Brett. Many of Brett's heroic feats serve as Lessmann's greatest baseball moments.
"Back in the 80's my family and I went to a Royals game," Lessmann said of his favorite memory. "It turned out Brett had been injured, but he pinch hit in the ninth inning. When he came out on deck the crowd went crazy. He came up and jacked a home run over the right field wall and the stadium went wild."
An ardent Royals fan, he's been to at least one game in K.C. each year since 1979, but growing up in Iowa also provided the chance to easily travel to games in Minnesota and Chicago. As an adult he's taken that passion to a new level and vowed to visit every major league stadium.
"Of course, it is getting more difficult because they keep building new stadiums," Lessmann said. Among his conquests have been the brand new Target Field, Safeco Field, Chase Field, AT&T Park, Comerica Park, Great American Ballpark and 16 others past and present.
He's also writing on the history of baseball in his hometown of Sioux City, Iowa. And After doing some research for the book through the Library, Lessmann sought out the Hall's Facebook page.
"The Research Center at the Hall of Fame helped me out., (so I) wanted to be a fan to show my appreciation for a great museum and research facility" he said. "I have visited the Hall of Fame a few years ago and plan to go back in the future. I went probably 10 years ago when I was in northern New York State. My favorite memory was viewing all of the old memorabilia of Ruth, Gehrig and other greats. It is a great experience that any baseball fan should pursue."
Now as both a Facebook fan and a Hall of Fame member, he can continue re-living the great moments in baseball history with his connection to the game. Make sure you don't miss out on the Facebook action at www.facebook.com/baseballhall.

Venice: Serene, Decadent, and Still Kicking
More Airdates:
Wed Jan 28 at 7:30PM on KCET-HD
Sorting through the monuments of magical Venice, we trace its decline from Europe's most powerful city to its most hedonistic. We cruise its main street--the Grand Canal, then get lost in the back lanes. For art, it's Titian, Bellini, Donatello, and the Doge's Palace. We luxuriate in a venerable cafe on St. Mark's Square, enjoy calamari with locals in a canal-side pub, then find our own private Venice under the moonlight on a gondola.

By The Numbers: Al Kaline Was The Ultimate Pro's Pro

Dedicated to Lieutenant colonel Michael Jaye (Retired, U.S. Army)
Al Kaline always seemed like the ultimate professional. Even though he played for the Detroit Tigers, a team that was never cowed when they played my beloved Yankees, it was hard to root against No. 6.
He was not a big man, even for the 1960s. He certainly was not flamboyant. He was quiet, unflappable and dependable. He was a workman; the perfect laborer from Detroit.
Kaline never played a day of minor league baseball. He wore the Tigers' uniform with class. He was the perfect No. 3 hitter, and quite possibly the best fielding right-fielder that many baseball fans ever saw.
Some of his accomplishments included:
- Played 22 years for the Detroit Tigers
- Won the American League batting title with a mark of .340 at the age of 22
- Accumulated 399 career home runs
- Had more that 1,500 runs batted in
- Recorded more than 4,850 total bases
- His career On-Base-Plus-Slugging mark was .855
- Won 10 Gold Gloves
- Member of the 1968 World Series Champions
- Was an American League All-Star from 1955 through 1967, and also in 1971 and 1974
- Ranks 27th in Wins Above Replacement (WAR) for position players with 92.7
- Enshrined in Baseball Hall of Fame in 1980
Kaline was not the greatest Bengal ever — Ty Cobb pretty much has that designation secured. But I suspect that Kaline is the most beloved and respected of all the players who ever donned the uniform of the Detroit Tigers.
Where does Kaline rank all time among the best to ever play the game? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below…

O's unsure if Wieters will be ready for Opening Day
Orioles catcher Matt Wieters may not be healthy in time for the start of the 2015 season, according to manager Buck Showalter.
Speaking during the Economic Alliance of Greater Baltimore's annual meeting, Showalter told CSNBaltimore.com that Wieters projects as being ready "very close" to the start of the season, but not quite by Opening Day. He also addressed the status of third baseman Manny Machado, whom he thinks should be ready for the 2015 campaign.

McEwen Mining: Best Performing Stock Of Any Junior Producer
Wed, Apr. 16 • MUX • 24 Comments
- We believe MUX is a superior junior mining company due to its management, history of increased production, increased replacement and total reserves.

- The company's stock performance may again stand out as the big mover of the sector as it has in the recent past, and should draw in a slew of momentum-style hedge funds.

The Washington Post Company (NYSE:GHC)
A diversified media and education company. The Company operates principally in four areas of the media business: newspaper publishing, television broadcasting, magazine publishing and cable television.
The Washington Post is one of the most well-known newspaper names in the world. But like with the New York Times, WPO's business model is SO 20th-century, and if it's going to succeed in an era of up-to-the-minute information and on-demand news, it's got to change its current course. It continues to diversify into radio, television, and the Internet, but its smaller newspapers still aren't focusing nearly enough on their bread-and-butter: local and regional news. The national and international events of the day are already covered in great detail by cable, the Internet, and newspaper behemoths (such as its flagship) -- city newspapers would do well to remember this. Until it can do so -- and until it can further diversify into arenas that aren't fading into obsolescence -- I'm staying safely away.
I am bearish on the newspaper industry (And the print media in general, but the company has gotten some takers as it is looking to unload magazine assets) as the internet has destroyed much of its moat and I would be bearish on The Washington Post IF if got most of its revenues the print biz, but it does not. You are correct that WPO has moved in to cable which has a decent moat and free cash flow generation ability. However, the not so hidden gem you analysis misses is the education unit which along is worth $3B - $4B (Close to market cap of this company).

- 0Jan 17, '13 by Meriwhen, ASN, BSN, RN Senior ModeratorMoved to Pre-Nursing Student Forum.
Good luck with the class!
- 0Jan 17, '13 by queseraseraI took this class a few semesters ago.. it was ridiculously easy. I didn't study once and got an A. I think you'll find a lot of it is common sense. Good luck
- 0Jan 17, '13 by x_factorI took it this past fall, I never touched my textbook, and I read over my notes from class about 20 minutes before the exam, and passed with an A. It's an insanely easy class, no matter if you have an easy professor or a difficult one (I had a PhD professor who was supposed to be "super tough", pffffttt... yeah right), the material just isn't that challenging. I'm sure you'll do fine, good luck.

The Next Phase. . . Providence Athenaeum.
This Glove post needs to continue.
First of all I gave a talk at the Providence Athenaeum on
October 19, 2012.
It was a wet night, chilly and rainy, but so cozy inside
this beautiful old library. On Friday nights there are salons,
open to the public, about any number of topics. There is
wine and sherry, and dainty snacks. This was my Friday,
shared with my new friend Stuart Blazer.
Stuart is a poet. I am not well read in the genre of poetry
and when I first found out we would be paired...Stuart asking
me questions about the Gloves and me responding, mingled
with questions from the audience, I was nervous. All I knew
about him is that he did not like e-mail, which is my life

About : Ulysses
and The Gloves
This project addresses the crosscurrents
between my need to make visual art and my awareness that
my world view is shaped by reading (the instigator of empathy)
and writing (a source of self-discovery). It has become
increasingly critical for me to use words in my work in
a meaningful and beautifully visual way.
In this new piece I engaged not my own words
but those of modernist master, James Joyce. Words once considered
dirty; filthy; no better than household scum. 265,000 words
so unclean that they were prosecuted for obscenity in the
United States, and for 12 years after their first appearance
in print, considered unfit for publication in the United
Kingdom. Im referring, of course, to the text of Joyces
groundbreaking novel, Ulysses. [more]
