This year's Chicago Air & Water Show will look and sound a little bit different. Because of government budget cuts, military planes and boats will not be participating. That means no U.S. Navy Blue Angels or U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds; no F-16, F-18 and F-22 fighter jets; and no Golden Knights, the U.S. Army's parachute team.
Not a problem, says John Trick, manager of the Chicago Air & Water Show. He knows that people are going to miss the precision flying, intricate stunts and the heart-stopping noise the big military guns provide, but the show must go on.
And go on it will, from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Aug. 17-18 along the lakefront from Fullerton Avenue to Oak Street, with North Avenue Beach as the center point.
"The military is only one portion of the show; we have real strong civilian acts," Trick said. "We've put more emphasis on the civilian acts and brought more acts in to supplement what we're not going to have military-wise this year. If you put it all together with the great show and the beautiful weather and you're down at the beach, people are going to be happy and it's going to be an enjoyable weekend for them."
New this year is the All Veteran Parachute Team, an inspiring team of 10 active or retired military parachutists.
New also is the British Aerospace Sea Harrier Jet, a Vietnam-era Skyhawk jet, the Aerostars Aerobatic Team, an A-4 Skyhawk jet and the Geico Skytypers flying six vintage World War II aircrafts.
Expect also the return of the popular AeroShell Aerobatic Team, the Sean D. Tucker and Team Oracle, Lima Lima Flight Team, the Firebirds Delta Team, Matt Chapman Airshows, Bill Stein Airshows and Dave Dacy in the Super Stearman.
Returning also is pilot Chuck Aaron in the Red Bull helicopter. He is the only helicopter pilot in the United States certified by the Federal Aviation Administration to do aerobatic air shows.
The Los Angeles-based Aaron said he typically does 25 air shows a summer. With military bases across the country canceling their air shows, he has about 10 fewer jobs this year, he said.
"It has affected our community of show performers," Aaron said.
His act includes loops, rolls, split F's, backflips, vertical climbs and vertical dives, and rolling climbs and rolling dives. "A full-on aerobatic routine that you would see an airplane do, I do in a helicopter," he said.
How difficult is it to do aerobatics with a helicopter?
"I think it is the hardest and most difficult thing to do in a helicopter," Aaron said.
He got started almost a decade ago when Red Bull challenged him to do aerobatics in a helicopter. He said it couldn't be done. But the thought niggled at him, and he decided to give it a shot. It took him a year-and-a-half to modify his helicopter and get FAA approval for both his helicopter and himself.
"The hardest part of the whole process was convincing the pilot that he was going to go up and do aerobatics in his helicopter — which was me," Aaron said. "That was a scary process."
But it's not like he's out there haphazardly "lighting my hair on fire," he said.
"Red Bull has given me enough time and money to process this, methodically think it out, and to mechanically make the changes to make this a safe operation," Aaron said. "We've put a lot of time, effort and money into properly doing this so I can do what seems to be the impossible."
That's probably why he is the only guy doing this — it's very expensive to completely modify a helicopter, he said, and then it can never be returned to normal service.
The backflip is his personal favorite maneuver to do, Aaron said. He takes his helicopter up to a hover and then flips over backwards.
"That's pretty amazing to see, especially for a helicopter," he said. "I hear that people gasp a lot."
Water show
When it comes to the water component of the show, you won't see the U.S. Coast Guard air-sea rescue this year.
You will see the Chicago Police and Fire department boats doing demonstrations, and the fire department will do a water rescue with its fast rescue boat and helicopter. The fire department will also shoot water cannons from Fullerton toward Oak.
With the new and returning civilian acts, people should expect another great and exciting show, Trick said.
"It will be a great show even without the military, and we're hoping and anticipating the military will be back in our show next year."

Chicago-area home prices see steepest drop nationwide: report
BY SANDRA GUY Business Reporter firstname.lastname@example.com December 26, 2012 10:32AM
Updated: December 26, 2012 4:53PM
The Chicago-area housing market continued to lag national numbers, posting the largest non-seasonally adjusted single-home price decline — 1.5 percent from September to October and 1.3 percent year-over-year — of 20 major cities in the Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller national home price index released Wednesday.
Of the 20 cities, 12 saw housing prices drop.
Nationwide, home prices rose in most major cities in October compared with a year ago, pushed up by rising sales and a decline in the supply of available homes. Higher prices show the housing market is improving even as it moves into the more dormant fall and winter sales period.
The overall S&P/Case-Shiller index increased 4.3 percent in October compared with a year ago. That's the largest year-over-year increase in two and a half years, when a homebuyer tax credit temporarily boosted sales.
Prices rose in October from a year ago in 18 of 20 cities. Phoenix led all cities with a 21.7 percent gain, followed by Detroit, where prices increased 10 percent.
October marked the fifth straight month of year-over-year gains, after nearly two years of declines. Prices rose in mid-2010 in the final months before the tax credit expired. They had fallen sharply in 2008 and 2009.
"It is clear that the housing recovery is gaining strength," said David Blitzer, chairman of the index committee at S&P Dow Jones Indexes.
The improvement in housing is adding to economic growth and most analysts expect that to continue in 2013.
But automatic tax increases and spending cuts that are set to take effect next week could drag down growth. The White House and Congress have so far failed to reach agreement on a way to avoid the "fiscal cliff." President Barack Obama and congressional lawmakers will return to Washington on Thursday to resume talks.
"We expect home price appreciation to continue for the foreseeable future, because inventories are lean amid rising sales," said Joseph LaVorgna, chief U.S. economist at Deutsche Bank. "This assumes that a resolution to the 'fiscal cliff' is found ... otherwise, the recent positive trend in housing would most certainly be in jeopardy along with the rest of the current economic expansion."
Prices nationwide have recovered to about the same level as in the fall of 2003, according to the Case-Shiller index. They remain about 30 percent below the peak reached in the summer of 2006.
The S&P/Case-Shiller index covers roughly half of U.S. homes. It measures prices compared with those in January 2000 and creates a three-month moving average. The October figures are the latest available.
Solid gains in home prices have helped drive a modest recovery in the housing market. Rising prices encourage more potential buyers to come off the sidelines and purchase homes. And more people may put their homes on the market as they gain confidence that they can sell at a good price.
Higher home prices can also make homeowners feel wealthier and more likely to spend more. Consumer spending accounts for about 70 percent of the U.S. economy.
Steady job gains and record-low mortgage rates have also helped propel the housing recovery. And the low supply of houses for sale is encouraging builders to start work on more homes. That should lead to more construction jobs.
The pace of home construction slipped in November but was still nearly 22 percent higher than a year earlier. Builders are on track this year to start work on the most homes in four years.
Builder confidence rose in December for a seventh straight month to the highest level in more than six-and-a-half years, according to a survey released last week by the National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo.

Heard from the "other forum" the official launch date for Puerto Rico's transition to DIRECTV USA was today (i.e. 11/22/12).
Would have thought there would be some PR release of the event. But so far nothing but crickets, even on the DIRECTV PR web-site.

Since the last software update, I'm experiencing a new bug, and it occurs EVERY TIME I do this action:
Browsing through the 'to do' list, I see an episode of a show (set to record via a season pass) that I don't want to record. I hit the red button to delete the episode, and the DVR tells me that the episode is currently being recorded, and asks if I'm sure I want to delete it. I say 'yes', and then it asks if I want to save the partial recording.
Now the kicker.... these messages come up when I'm deleting a recording several days in advance!! Obviously it's not currently recording.
I can duplicate this new bug every time. Is anyone else experiencing it?
Yes, others see this bug and DIRECTV knows about it. Hopefully it will be corrected in a future software release.

Goin' for It
Xperience Days will get Dad out of the recliner and into mid-air. Take him on a Red Baron-style biplane ride, or if his heart can handle it, put him in a fighter jet for a simulated dogfight. Back on the ground, satisfy Pops' need for speed in a Land Rover off-road driving adventure, or in an Indy car doing 150 mph on a superspeedway.

Originally, the program was a showcase for The Cartoon Network's massive vault of toons old and new, including shorts from Popeye, Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies, and 2 Stupid Dogs. Space Ghost, mean-spirited giant praying mantis Zorak, and dumb space pirate Brak acted as hosts, introducing the show and providing comedy bits in between the shorts.
That was the original idea, but soon the "filler" material became so popular it took over the show. Like Space Ghost Coast To Coast, the animation primarily came from old Space Ghost and Dino Boy cartoons, clipped out of the space setting and placed in a Ghost Planet television studio. With such limited movement from the characters, the writers had to make the dialogue and situations even more ludicrous, and so they did. Segments ranged from "Brak's Cartoon Planet Monday Ratings Report" to poetry readings to impromptu sing-alongs to cooking lessons to messages from Space Ghost's imaginary friend, Mr. Blinky. It was always unpredictable, and audiences loved it.
The vault cartoons were dropped, and the show focused entirely on the comedy sketches. At the same time, Cartoon Planet changed from a daily to a weekly program, and from a full hour to half an hour. Eventually, the comedy bits were edited into 22 half-hour episodes, with titles like "Forbidden Socks" and "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad." These episodes, the new official Cartoon Planet, became cult classics, spawning a string of CD compilations and years of perpetual reruns on The Cartoon Network and sister station TBS.

2013 and earlier-Acura TL Lease Questions
jmalazarte Posts: 1
albert72 Posts: 141Car Man,
With what appears to be good incentives, the base TL may now be on my shopping list. Edmunds describes a couple of lease deals and I want to make sure I understand what is posted.
$349 / month 3 yr 30k tot miles. Down Payment $1650 plus $1999 due at signing and the offer also says dealer contribution of $1500 is required for $349 payment.
I also see dealer cash of $1500 and another $1500 of Acura loyalty money that I am eligible for.
I am trying to figure out how much $$ I need at signing for this deal. If I need $1650 + $1999 and the dealer cash is already baked in, do I then need to come up with $1650 + $1999 - $1500 (loyalty) = $2149 or do I take the dealer cash as well an only need $2149 - $1500 = $649.
Any info is appreciated. Thanks -
CarMan@Edmunds Posts: 38,515Hey ml_driver. The $595 acquisition fee is charged by Acura Financial Services on every single lease. Individual dealers do not have the authority to waive this charge and they do not make any money off of it. So don't worry about that part of your deal.

CarMan@Edmunds Posts: 38,515Hi jmalazarte. The dealer invoice price of a 2013 TL SH-AWD is currently $37,893. If we subtract the $1,500 dealer cash that is available on the '13 base TL from that it drops to $36,393. The selling price that you were quoted is even lower than that, so it represents a very good deal.
There's also $1,500 loyalty / conquest cash out there that you may be able to take advantage of.
Just make sure the dealer uses Acura's buy rate lease money factor of .00062 (for top tier customers in NJ) to calculate your payment and you're in business.

CarMan@Edmunds Posts: 38,515Hi albert72. If I was in the market for a 2013 TL, I personally would shoot for a selling price of around $500 over the dealer invoice price that's listed here at Edmunds.com minus the $1,500 dealer cash minus the $1,500 loyalty cash. Have them base your payment upon that selling price and you should be able to beat the advertised deal.

mikelpnj Posts: 2Hi Car_man!
Not sure if this is a good deal. I haven't reviewed actual numbers yet, but was just quoted 349/mo with 2k down 12k a year lease. 36 mo lease. 13 tl tech package. Turning in my 2010 tl base model and am getting 15000 miles additional credit on lease. Dealer says it includes loyalty cash. Does his sound right? -
mikelpnj Posts: 2Here is my deal. Need a sanity check on this.
2013 Tech Package
- 38059 Invoice
- 35534 Sales Price
Minus 1500 Loyalty
Getting 12K Lease, but adding 15K Miles to it for unused miles on my 2010 that I am turning in.
56% Residual with a .00062 MF
$359.00 a Month
Out of pocket:
595 - Aquisition
345 Motor Vehicles (3 years in NJ)
First Months Payment - 359.00
1299 - due at signing.
Does this make sense? My lines are blurred.
Thanks all! -

crg7 Posts: 6Lease on 2010 TL is up next month and starting to get quotes for a new 2013 TL with Tech package. So far, received a quote for 36 month/15,000 miles at $403.83 plus tax with approximately $1500 due at inception in South Florida plus they will pick up my last remaining payment on my current lease. The advance package is about $40 more per month, not sure that it is worth it. Any thoughts/opinions? Thanks.
CarMan@Edmunds Posts: 38,515Hello aboesch. Acura's April buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2013 TL Tech with 15,000 miles per year in Maryland are .00100 and 54% for consumers who qualify for its top aka "Super Preferred" credit tier.
I'm not sure when the 2014 version of this car is scheduled to arrive, but I haven't heard anything about it so it probably isn't soon.

res332 Posts: 13Carman,
I was offered 36 month lease at 15K miles per year for $399 month which includes tax. I'm in PA and believe the tax is 9%. First month payment and tag due at signing for a total of $620. I'm coming off an Acura lease so Acura loyalty applies. Does this sound like a good deal? Also, what should same lease look like for the tech package?
Thanks -

mikevi7 Posts: 5Hello,
I am looking to potentially transfer my lease. I have a 2012 Acura TL AWD w/ Tech. Lease ends Feb 2015. It was 3 yr 36,000 mile lease and payment is $489/ month. Car has remote starter (installed by Acura dealer), tire insurance and only about 10,000 miles. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can do this? Swapalease.com?
Thanks for your help in advance,
Mike -
chuckjr Posts: 61Swapalease isn't a silver bullet. I've used it once successfully and currently have two vehicles listed with great monthly payments that haven't moved in about a year. I do get a lot of questions on my lexus and e350 but have had a lot of people not pass either Lexus or Mercedes credit checks.
Try carmax. They'll make you an offer to buy it and hopefully you aren't too far under water. If your payment isn't great it won't move on swapalease unless you are willing to pay someone an incentive.
If you do go with swapalease you can haggle with the listing agent. -
wonderwarthog Posts: 50I just had a dealer call me with what looks like a good deal: 36month, TL with tech $349/mo. including tax plus $2,500 total drive off (which I can reduce to $1,000 with loyalty). Here's the interesting part: Selling price is $36.536 which is a little on the high side, but the residual is $23,102 which is 63%. I can't figure how they can offer a residual that high.
igozoomzoom Waleska, GeorgiaPosts: 797Question regarding advertised or 'promo' lease offer and current incentives-
I'm helping a friend of my mom's find a replacement for her 2010 Infiniti G37 Journey 4-door. Her lease expires in about five weeks and she wants a lower payment than the $497/month she has been paying. The Acura TL (or TSX or even the Accord EX-L V6) all look like good candidates for a lower lease payment without having to sacrifice much on luxury and features.
The 2013 TL Base 4-door has a 36-month lease offer- $349/month for 36mos, $1650 down payment and dealer contribution of $1500 required.
They are also offering $1500 Conquest Cash that would apply since she currently has a 2010 Infiniti.
The $1500 Dealer Cash toward the lease can be combined with other offers.
The $1500 Conquest Bonus has to be used toward a lease or purchase through Acura Financial and can't be used on a $0 down lease offer.
Based on that information (and assuming the same incentives apply when she is ready to buy/lease), could she apply the $1500 Conquest toward the $1650 lease down payment???
I also realize that taxes, fees, title/reg fees, etc. are not included in the payment of $349. She has a credit score in the high 700s and owns a Physical Therapy practice, so she should qualify for any top-tier credit offers.
I'm quite savvy at negotiating a great PURCHASE deal. But I've never dealt with a LEASE transaction before. I understand the nuts and bolts from an intellectual perspective, but I'm not 100% confident that I can translate that into actual numbers! =)2015.5 Volvo S60 T6 Drive-E Platinum, 2012 Mazda CX-9 GT -

mlewis2 Posts: 6Looking at 2013 TL w/tech package. MSRP 44783. Current dealer quote is 42789 cap cost, .0011 MF on 36 month 10k lease. I think the MF is high. Can anyone confirm the current MF for the Kansas City area? I am also seeing others paying in the $38k-$39k range...is this reasonable? Thanks.

2103 Acura TL w/Tech Package
for only 10k 36month lease, your payment should be around $374.00 + tax(your local sales tax) + DMV (around $185.00), Your out the door should be no more than $600.00.
Remember this is with no money down, no trade-in.
Here in new york, my calculation was $407.00 included sales tax of 8.875% plus the dmv and fees $157.50 (75+60+10+12.5) -
CarMan@Edmunds Posts: 38,515
CarMan@Edmunds Posts: 38,515Hi theericharris1. Acura is not providing lease support on leftover 2012 models any longer. As a result, if you really want to lease it probably would be cheaper, or at least very close, to go with a 2013 model at this point.

Windows Phone still may be trailing iOS and Android, but Microsoft's mobile-app library is growing every day, and currently includes more than 200,000 apps. What were once limited beta versions of popular apps are now fully featured and look beautiful on Windows Phone's unique user interface. Windows Phone Live Tiles allow certain apps to show important information directly on the home screen, extending an app's usefulness. The Windows Phone store gained some big app names recently, and is sure to capture even more in the coming years.
Whether you just bought a Windows Phone or are thinking of getting one, these are the top 25 apps to get.
Weave is the RSS newsreader for Windows Phone you've always wanted. This Windows Phone-only app lets users easily follow any website or blog, or choose from a variety of curated content organized by category. Choose from a variety of fonts and sizes for easy reading, or choose to have articles spoken aloud if you want to give your eyes a rest. The voice is eerily human and oddly comforting.
Windows Phone Apps hit over 50,000 as of late December and have since reportedly pushed past 60,000 (unconfirmed).
Xbox companion, Office, Tuneln radio would have made my list.
If you're going to show off a youtube client, show off Youtube Pro. It's recent, and it's pretty slick. The default youtube app is nothing more than a glorified link.
The YouTube "app" isn't even a real app it's just a shortcut to the website in Internet explorer
Of the apps mentioned I've only used Marathon (the first app I ever installed, had it on my old windows mobile, too) Facebook, and Accuweather (although somewhat redundant for those of us that have HTC Hub). I use Rhapsody for music (Zune doesn't stream well) and I found Dictionary.com app handy for when I use a word in a sentence and someone asks: what does that mean. Throw my phone and say, "look up". there's also a "google maps" app gMaps that isn't too bad, but the it's ad supported unless you buy.
other apps I've used, Adobe Reader (wish FoxIt was available), Soduku (Microsoft Games– never played before), the HTC ones, especially attentive phone: flip for speaker works 99% of the time.
Also don't forget that your "'Me" tile has a "check in" function. And the search function to for text/barcodes and the search function for music identification (works very well for me)
I am surprised that Weave – RSS news feeder did not make the cut. it is the best news feeder i have ever come across. It is beautiful, customizable, and fun to use. I love getting all sorts of news from all perspective from U.S. news to news from all around the world. Everything from cooking to music to getting just microsoft news to politics, religion, and the list goes on and on. Hands down the best app i ever come across for news.
Spotify… seriously? That app is horrible. I love the service but the app is very weak and the sole reason I do not pay for the Spotify service. Rdio is a way better app, although not perfect, either. And the facebook app is actually pretty weak, too.
I can't even find the gmaps pro app anymore… Do you know where it went?
Anything Tracker. It's a real gem, I use it every day.
Evernote is fantastic! Found it on this site and now use it every day!
How To Change operating system On HTC Radar with Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional or Android?
Les jeux sont fait. Nokia est coincée avec WP8 suite à l'aide d'un milliard de dollards fournie par Microsoft et Samsung lâchera Android quand Tizen sera au point. Le superbe Samsung Ativ S est désormais un objet de collection.
Seriously lumia us going down n is no match against android….,android has google goggles on da other hand bingle goggles is of no use …..lumia market will fall apart if this continues due to da lack of apps …….fuck lumia make all those pathetic apps free n come up with good ones…..
Jack of Tools is a great app as well. Made my day. Level, altimeter, velocity, etc etc.
free apps usually suck due to ads, the only good one without this hell is Ballons Way and 1D game as far as I know
Of the 25 apps listed, there is only one I would bother with, Kindle. The other stuff mostly seems like stuff a journalist might need, not things an ordinary user would bother with.
I'd have included a few like Wikipanda, Musixmatch, No. 1 Toolbox and a decent weather app (Weatherflow is pretty but it's also quite basic). But mostly the apps everyone needs are specific to them, like their bank's app or travel-specific apps like Kayak or Bing Translator, so a list is pretty pointless, really.
you, who ask money for apps, suck, it doesn't cost you a shit to create some code you creedy bastards

The 2014 Toyota Tundra gets a redesigned interior and exterior, the high-end 1794 trim level, and Toyota's Entune smartphone integration for the infotainment systems...Read more
The Toyota Tundra is the automaker's full-size half-ton pickup that fits above the smaller Tacoma in the lineup.
The 2014 Toyota Tundra is available in four trim levels, has one V-6 and two V-8 engines, five- and six-speed automatic transmissions, rear- and four-wheel drive, and three different cabs. The regular cab is exactly what you'd expect, the double cab is surprisingly roomy, and the CrewMax is downright spacious. The base SR model gets the option of a 4.0-liter V-6 that makes 270 hp and 278 lb-ft of torque, can only be paired with RWD and a five-speed automatic, and gets an EPA-estimated 16/20 mpg city/highway. Two V-8s are available: the 310-hp 4.6-liter V-8 that makes 327 lb-ft of torque, or the 381-hp 5.7-liter V-8 that makes 401 lb-ft. Both engines get a six-speed automatic and get EPA-estimated mileage to the tune of 14-15/18-19 on the 4.6-liter V-8 and 13/17-18 on the 5.7-liter V-8.
The 2014 Toyota Tundra lineup received three- and four-star overall safety rating from the NHTSA (out of a possible five stars): The regular and RWD extra cab models received the lowest rating at three stars, while the crew cab and 4WD extra cab models received the highest rating at four stars. In IIHS testing, the Tundra received a rating of good for the four categories it has been tested in (the highest-possible rating is good).
In a vacuum, this truck is great, but we couldn't help comparing it to the domestic competition, saying in a First Drive of the 2014 Tundra: "Another gripe about the Tundra is that nothing much is happening in the cargo bed. Compared with the Ram's clever cargo management system and bodyside storage compartments or the Ford F-150's bed extender and deployable tailgate step, it's not too advanced . . . the six-speed automatic is no match for the Ram's eight-speed (and the fuel economy advantage it returns), but isn't a bad transmission . . . Considering this new level of Frankentruckness along with the curious lack of powertrain improvements and the absence of key features, we have to ask: will Toyota ever get the big truck thing right?" Despite those criticisms, we praised the 1794 edition for its high quality and comfort. While it's a good truck in some ways, "we can't think of a significant advantage the Tundra has over the Ram or any other full-size competitor."

First, a little personal announcement before I get into all the fabulous drama that is raging in Giants-land right now. One of a few reasons I've been a bit MIA lately is that I'm doing a project in honor of my birthday, which is coming up on the 8th,and it's a wonderful time-eater, but a time-eater all the same. This means, of course, that it's that time of year again when I ask you for your money and promise you something absolutely irresistible in return. Last year, it was Fair Trade chocolate and this year, it's earrings, made by women who have been rescued from human trafficking in Thailand. Here is my video about it:
It's a cause close to my heart because it presents economic solutions to the complex issue of slavery in the world today, by providing futures for former victims and alternative industry in the country of Thailand. And a tip of the white beanie to Giants leftie Jeremy Affeldt for getting me on the modern-day abolitionist bandwagon a few years back. (Yes, that's a baseball connection!) Jeremy is very involved with the wonderful organization, the Not for Sale Campaign, which is a great info resource for learning more and getting involved in this fight. Their website is: www.notforsalecampaign.org.
If you feel so inclined, you can donate via PayPal (info on the website at: www.apriceonyourdreams.wordpress.com). My fish and I would thank you greatly and you or a lady in your life would adore these earrings. Trust the Lover of All Things Prada on this one.
Onwards to All Things Baseball! I can't believe we're a week away from Opening Day and am terribly excited. Watching the roster get whittled down to the final 25 is rather nerve-wracking experience for me but fascinating all the same. It feel s a bit like our fate is being set into stone, never mind the fact the roster will change a thousand times during the year. This roster setting is still the biggest one. Until the playoffs, of course. Of course.
Like all the other legions of Giants fans, I am very, very curious to see what happens with The Brandon Belt this year and also to see if the team can reach a deal with Matt Cain before the season starts up. The word yesterday that they might go with neither Whiteside nor Stewart as the back-up catcher also made my jaw drop, just a little. I am partial to Stewart, as y'all know, but if the Giants want to move in the, eh, youthful direction, I am not opposed to that at all. Which is to say, I suppose, that I also see a potential silver lining to Freddy Sanchez starting the season on the disabled list. I am still waiting on the silver lining to Vogey being put on the DL as well, but I will let you know if I find one.
If I'm lucky, who knows, it could be a golden lining. Or a golden ticket.
Yes, I think I might just be able to get used to that idea.
In the meantime, although I have said I'm not entirely adverse to the idea of Cain becoming a free agent, I think I have grown a healthy dislike of Larry Baer. I seem to be behind the curve here, but better late than never, right? Anyhow, Baer is easier to blame than Sabean. Sabean drafted the Core Four for the Yankees and, yeah, won the Giants a World Series. That too. Baer has installed fake falcons. Which are kind of a cool concept, admittedly, but kind of completely beside the point, too.
Diamond Girl
p.s. And, hey. If you any of you are feeling especially generous, you know what I want for my birthday.

Customer Service Representative by day and writer by night, Arley Cole is the author of several short stories and the newly released fantasy novel The Blacksmith's Daughter. She has spent far too much time in school and has written most of her life for other people. Now she is writing for herself.
Everybody always wants to know where I got the idea for The Blacksmith's Daughter. They always ask me if my dad was a blacksmith. Trust me, that one is getting old.
The honest truth---not to sound like Stephenie Meyer or anything---is that I literally dreamed the opening part one night. The next morning I said to myself, "That would make a good book." So I started brainstorming it out over the ironing board until I had it.
I would have to say that the magical system of the book was what took the most work and head-scratching. It comes a good bit out of my personal interest in the idea of the human body as an electromagnetic organism. I also asked myself what powers magic. Is it just born into a person or does it rely on an outside force to give it strength? What if that outside force were something present in the natural world? The Blacksmith's Daughter just starts the exploration of magic in that world. More answers are to follow in the sequel, The Merchant's Son.
It is fantasy which means it makes perfect sense to place it under Urania, the speculative fiction imprint at Musa. But I was a little perplexed when the editor decided to place it primarily in Euterpe, the Young Adult imprint.
After all, the characters in TBD are not your typical YA characters. For one thing, they aren't teenagers. The book explores character choices that just aren't appropriate for teenager characters---like the protagonists getting married right at the beginning. The development of the romance between Enith and Acwellen takes a very different turn than it would if they were 16 or 17.
But despite the fact that there is an adult relationship in the book, it is also not graphic by any means. Nobody is going to get embarrassed reading it. At worst, you might squee a time or two. That also helps make it YA friendly. Plus, I've never yet met a teenager who wasn't interested in relationships!
And on reflection, I believe the book offers a lot for YA readers thematically. One of the major themes is finding out what you are meant to do and who you really are. Although I know 40 and 50 year olds who are still trying to answer that question, YA readers certainly are interested in figuring this out.
The least YA aspect of the book is probably the violence. The fights are bloody and I hope realistic. I get really out of patience with the sanitized TV violence we see. The killer pops a cap in somebody and they bloodlessly fall down twenty feet away. Nobody gets dirty. Nobody lies on the ground screaming until they finally bleed to death. I think that trivializes life. It makes us callous. Even though there are lots of baddies in TBD and lots of killing takes place, none of this happens without cost to the other characters. Life is valuable, and death is permanent. It does us good to remember this.
I am really glad that The Blacksmith's Daughter found a place at Euterpe and at Musa Publishing. E-books are the future and Musa is building a brand and a library of good books that readers can come to time and time again to find something that they know will be good. They don't have to wade through a sea of e-titles, hoping to find a buried treasure. I am thrilled to be here and hope everyone else is too!!
For our Halloween treat, we are giving out a copy of The Blacksmith's Daughter! Just leave a comment here, and Like us on Facebook at Euterpe YA Books, and it could be you who gets this great read for FREE!

GRAHAM, Ky. (3/20/14) — A death investigation is underway just off the Western Kentucky Parkway between the 44 and 45 mile marker in Muhlenberg County.
At 3:15 p.m. Thursday, March 20, numerous Kentucky State Police, emergency vehicles and the coroner were on the scene.
KSP Trooper Stu Recke said it appears that a motorist stopped their vehicle and walked back into the woods several feet and expired. The coroner will determine if a medical examination is necessary.

Collins, aka Fonzo and Feeze, has a $200,000 bond on counts of possession of marijuana with intent, firearm enhancement, possession of cocaine with intent and possession of controlled substance.
In May, the Bolivar County Sheriff's Department executed simultaneous search warrants at two residences on Skeene Street in Mound Bayou.
The raid resulted in the arrest of Alfonzo Collins, 28, of Mound Bayou and the seizure of over five pounds of suspected high-end marijuana, over an ounce of suspected crack cocaine, nearly $6,000 in cash and three firearms.
The guns collected included a 22 revolver, 22 semi-automatic handgun and a Kel Tec PLR-16 semi-automatic pistol with a drum capable of holding 100 rounds.
Also collected during the investigation were over a dozen suspected Ecstasy pills, various suspected pharmaceutical pills and four measuring scales.
The search warrants were executed on two properties owned by Collins.
The arrest comes after a lengthy investigation into suspected narcotics activities at the two locations.
"The raid lasted about three hours," said Sheriff Kelvin Williams at the time. "We wanted to make sure there were drugs in the house when we entered so we didn't come away empty handed.
Williams said tips from citizens were crucial in the bust's success.
"We continue to build the trust with the community and we're extremely thankful for the information they provide," he said.
"We have limited resources here. Bolivar County is the second largest county and we only have one narcotics investigator. But we don't let that stop us.
"We will continue to use whatever resources we can to make this community safe — that includes all federal and state agencies that help us get the job done.
"Our goal is to rid Bolivar County of any forms of illegal activity, whether it be guns drugs, burglaries or other crimes. We want to make Bolivar County the safest county in Mississippi."
Bolivar County Second District Circuit Court issued 64 indictments with 52 actually being arraigned while 12 remain to be arraigned due to extenuating circumstances.

older men <3
older men <3
usually a hair older.
I'm 31... my ideal age for a guy would probably be 33-34, but I'll go as young as 26-27.
I'm 19,and I'd date someone who's in his 30's but talking about serious relationship I wouldn't go with someone who's more than 25.
I don't really think it matters.
I like who I like... sure it's easier to relate to guys near my own age, but when it's there it's just there.
...not every guy you meet needs to be your LIFE-COMPANION. No doubt most guys don't even know what it means to actually have to care about WHO you are with to be with them.
I've never known intimacy with a stranger. I tried, too many times. That's me, not anyone else.

It depends on their mindset. I don't want too serious - which a lot of guys my age can be - and I don't want too immature - which a lot of younger guys can be - so any age that 'clicks' with me as a person is a potential possibility.
I enjoy the younger guys...so vibrant, full of energy, hormones flowing...gets my juices flowing!!
Generally I like 18-25. Anything older is getting to be beyond my age liking. So it's partially older, partially younger.
I like 18 - 24 year old guys.. I'm 20.
This type of preference changes over time.
As mature man enjoy the company of young guys full of energy and willling to learn. Alos enjoy guys may age who are experienced and love sex.
