I'm thinking of using a car broker. I know the exact make, model, in the $40,000 range. To lease. I'm betting they can find me a better deal than I can negotiate myself. Might be worth 5% or a few hundred bucks?
What experiences are out there? |

This Sunday will again be Food Bank Sunday, a time to gather food and funds for the Billings Food Bank. This summer has been a very busy time for the food bank. The Billings Food bank supplies between 5,000 and 6,000 food boxes to area families and individuals, and that has placed a strain on reserves.
Items most needed at this time are individual-size juices, milk, fruit, snack bars, sandwich fixings, peanut butter and jelly, sandwich-size plastic bags, etc. for sack lunches. Also needed are soup crackers, soups, one-can meals, meat helpers, canned meats, and there is a demand for fresh meats, especially hamburger, pork and chicken.
The requests for baby formula, particularly Similac and Enfamil, have greatly increased, as have requests for disposable diapers.
The Billings Food Bank's large garden located at Oscar's Park is in need or garden tools and equipment, as well as regular tools for general upkeep. If you have spares, please consider donating them. The garden can also use volunteers, for anyone who has an interest.
Volunteers are always welcome at the food bank. With the increase in requests for assistance, there is an urgent need for teams of volunteers to fill boxes. This is a great project for a group from work or a group of friends. There is also a need for food sorters and sandwich and sack-lunch makers.
If you have food to be picked up, would like to hear more about the food bank, or are interested in volunteering, call 259-2856. The Billings Food Bank is at 2112 Fourth Ave. N., and the mailing address is P.O. Box 1258, Billings, MT 59103.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Oso!
Facts about Oso
- Breed: Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) Mix
- Color: Tan/Yellow/Fawn - With White
- Age: Adult
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Male
Oso's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Oso is about 5 years old and weighs 14-15 pounds. Oso is an incredibly sweet and well mannered dog. He is potty trained and crate trained. He gets along well with other dogs (except for intact males.) He does have a small problem with marking but it is getting way better... He is GREAT with cats! He does not chase or show any interest in them. He is exceptionally cuddly, loves to cuddle and is ready for a forever home!
Other Pets at Grateful Dogs Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Oso, a San Francisco Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) for sale in San Francisco, or seeking a Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) dog from a breeder in San Francisco.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in San Francisco already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a San Francisco breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) breeders who help with Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in San Francisco paves the way for another one to be saved.

Um yeah Lara.....we've been discussing this since yesterday!
NIWOT, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 1, 2006--Crocs, Inc. (NASDAQ: CROX - News) today announced that it will introduce a limited edition line of footwear featuring some of Disney's most popular characters. The new line, which will be called "Disney by CROCS(TM)," will be available at select U.S. retail locations prior to the 2006 Holiday season with an expanded product line launch occurring in Spring 2007.
Ron Snyder, CEO of Crocs, stated, "We are incredibly proud and excited to be aligned with one of the world's leading brands and to bring a truly unique type of product to our customers. Disney characters symbolize fun and magic, and we think they are a particularly good fit with the Crocs brand."
The Disney by CROCS line, which is targeted towards children and adults, will debut with special-edition Mickey Mouse die-cut Adult Beach and Kid's Cayman models. These styles will be available in a broad range of two-toned color pallets including Mickey's signature black and red. Other models include an array of unique designs emphasizing the distinctive personalities of Disney's characters including Mickey and Friends, Winnie the Pooh and Friends, Disney Princess, Disney Fairies, as well as Pirates of the Caribbean and Disney*Pixar's Toy Story and Cars.
About Crocs, Inc. Crocs, Inc. is a rapidly growing designer, manufacturer and marketer of footwear for men, women and children under the crocs brand.

Though the party conventions are long over, the special interests that paid for them were only revealed to the public yesterday. It's not a surprise that, despite a self-imposed ban on corporate cash to fund their Charlotte convention, the Democrats relied on plenty of it.
For their bash in Tampa, Republicans brought in donations from super PAC donors, an oil industry trade group that's running its own political ads, and some of the same corporate donors who underwrote the Democrats convention.

Organizations team up to offer free CO detectors to residents
BY: Jennifer Lysiak, Lancaster Editor | December 06, 2012
LANCASTER- Being told to say goodbye to your only child, because it will be your last moments with them, are words no parents ever wants to hear, but for Ken and Kim Hansen these are words that are all too familiar.
Ken and Kim experienced a great loss in their life on Jan. 17, 2009, when their daughter Amanda, 16, passed away from Carbon Monoxide (CO) poisoning. Amanda was at a friend's house for a sleepover and in the early morning Ken and Kim received a call to come to the house because Amanda was sick.
They arrived and there were emergency vehicles everywhere around the house. Ken and Kim still had no idea what was happening until they pulled up behind an ambulance and they saw CPR was being performed on Amanda, an image Ken says he still can't get out of his head.
Amanda was transported to Mercy Hospital and it was there the Hansens were told what had happened at the house. Amanda had suffered from carbon monoxide poisoning and could not be saved.
"They gave us a chance to say goodbye. That was our last chance," said Ken.
The cause of Amanda's death was from a defective boiler that was installed wrong, which leaked CO into the house and it was also found that there were no CO detectors installed in the house.
After the tragic loss of Amanda, Ken and Kim feel compelled to create the Amanda Hansen Foundation, a foundation that focuses on creating a resource that supplies the public with CO detectors who could not afford them and to educate and bring awareness to the public about the dangers of CO poisoning, its causes, and its prevention through the proper use of detectors and installation and maintenance of household appliances.
"The week after, we decided we could either take the high road or the low road on this and we both decided we wanted to take the high road and make sure we don't see another child pass away from this again," remarked Ken.
Since then, the Hansens have spent their time going to different events throughout New York State distributing free CO detectors to residents, and after the next couple events coming up, one of which will be held in Lancaster, they will have distributed more than 8,000 CO detectors.
In order to buy the detectors, it takes a lot of fund-raising and donations, said Ken. Currently, he is working on obtaining grants to purchase the detectors.
The Lancaster Office of Emergency Management (OEM), the Amanda Hansen Foundation, and Border Community Service of Niagara University have teamed up to distribute CO detectors to the public from noon to 3 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 15, at the OEM, located at 321 Columbia Ave., in Depew.
Dana Estrada, executive director of Border Community Service of Niagara University, said she just wanted to help and knew there was some money available to purchase CO detectors and about 200 detectors will be given out in Lancaster.
"We just wanted to supplement what they have already been doing," said Estrada, adding there are no prerequisites to receive a detector and one per family will be provided until supplies last.
"Also, January is a Carbon Monoxide awareness month. So, it is good that we are getting them into people's home earlier," commented Estrada. "Every home needs to have one."
Town of Lancaster OEM Disaster Coordinator CD 122, Robert MacPeek said the local fire service calls have increased 30 to 40 percent with calls relating to CO and appliance malfunctions.
"Because it is such a deadly gas, we need to get the word out," MacPeek said.
The Hansens were also determined to have a law established requiring all dwellings to have a CO detector installed. As of Feb. 22, 2010, with the help of former Assemblyman Mark Schroeder and former Sen. William Stachowski, Amanda Law's was established, which was the fastest bill to become a law in New York State.
Currently, the Hansens are working with Sen. Schumer to push for the legislation to become a federal law.
Furthermore, Ken mentioned they were invited by the British government to go to the UK and take Amanda's Law there. They went to London, Scotland, and Wales.
"We got Amanda's Law enacted in London and Scotland," said Ken. "It was very exciting for us."
For those who may not know, CO is often called the "silent killer" because it is odorless, colorless, and tasteless. Anything that has a flame, burns gas, gives off CO such as furnaces, hot water tanks, and fire places. Anytime a fuel burning appliance malfunctions or is improperly installed, CO can reach dangerous levels in the home.
Symptoms often mimic the flu. Ken said they tell people if they think they're feeling that way to go outside for five minutes. If they start to feel better and then go back in and they're feeling sick again it is definitely a good sign CO is leaking into the home.
In fact, the foundation works with Roy's Plumbing to offer free pre-inspections and tune ups for furnaces. Coupons are passed out at the events the foundation attends or if interested, people can say the Amanda Hansen Foundation recommended them.
"It is really important for people to get there furnaces inspected by a professional," remarked Ken. "They test for CO right away."
What was Amanda like? Ken said Amanda was full of energy, an honor roll student at West Seneca High School, and a member of the Spanish Honor Society and the swim team.
"She had a great sense of humor. She was funny. What do I miss about her? I miss everything," said Ken.
Ken said it has been very difficult for him since Amanda's death and the hardest thing has been going to all the different events.
"After you do an event and you talk to 40 or 50 people, and sometimes there are 500 people, and they're all hugging you and saying that she's beautiful. You go home after that and it takes a good day to recover. That's the hardest thing," said Ken.
For anyone who would like to donate or to learn more about the foundation visit www.amandahansenfoundation.org or call 380-1468.
The Dec. 15 event will also include an open house and visitors can also obtain information on emergency preparedness, safety, and demonstrations will be held.
"There are still a lot of people who don't have a CO detector," said Ken. "That's what we are trying to focus on is getting one in every home. That's our biggest goal."

Spangler also talked with US Rep. John Conyers, noting that Conyers "would play a role in getting any gun control legislation passed as the ranking Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee." (Conyers appears on board.) Altogether, Spangler did an excellent job laying out the basics of Obama's proposal—both what the president can do on his own and what will "require Congressional action" (more on this point to come)—and localizing the story via Michigan's influential national leaders, fertilizing the ground for future coverage on an unfolding story.
They simplified it—sometimes blurring facts. For example, per the above-mentioned Plain Dealer piece, the Ohio gun store owner "disagrees with the sentiment that teachers should be given weapons"—which, in context, implied this is part of Obama's proposal, when of course it is not. The National Rifle Association, which initiated that "sentiment," was not mentioned in the piece.
Another example: the shorthand in the same Plain Dealer story suggested Obama announced a "plan" to be enforced rather than explaining that Obama announced both executive actions he intends to take on his own (like nominating an ATF director) and recommended legislative actions he will push Congress to take (confirming his nominee for ATF director, for one). While the Plain Dealer offered readers a fuller picture with a pre-press conference overview and a next-day story featuring reactions from local mental health experts, readers may see just one segment of the coverage. Lest readers take away a muddled view, reporters should bring precise language to each piece. (For what it's worth, the Plain Dealer was hardly alone in failing to make clear that Obama's proposal included both executive actions and recommendations for legislative action: some national reporters "muff[ed] the terminology" even worse, as Slate's Dave Wiegel pointed out.)
There will be opportunities for reporters in this region and beyond to do better; the debate over gun policy goes on.

Lars & Kyra's Living Trust: leave something to charity?
Another decision for Lars and Kyra in doing their Living Trust, is whether to leave anything to charity and if so, how much, and to what do-good recipient.
The whether isn't too tough for Lars and Kyra, although the dynamics of it are a little surprising to Lars. He is pretty sure that his wife is a more generous and loving person than he is, and more likely to end up in their Lutheran version of Heaven, whatever that looks like. But her love for their children and grandchildren, combined with her concept of money that Lars still hasn't quite psyched out, somehow eclipses most of her desire to leave a legacy for the general good. Maybe part of it is she's skeptical of how such a gift would actually be used. Lars somehow manages to be more idealistic than Kyra on the whole, even though she is a better person than he. He doesn't like it when older folks talk about the failings of the next generation; in fact he feels his kids are at least as good as he in the important aspects of life. And he doesn't think a modest gift to charity will affect his kids' lives, except to give them an example of giving. He often tells his clients hey, let's assume you give ten percent of your estate to charity, and your kids the rest. If it's a large estate, 90% of it is still a lot. Or if it isn't very much, then 90% of it still isn't very much.

Jul 15th 2009 3:12PM Ancient Water Spirit charging knockdowns introduce a large RNG component to successfully killing the tri-spawn. In addition to being stunable, all of the adds are now interruptable and silenceable.
As a warrior tank, I have a lot of success using a combination of two macros to interrupt AWS whether it's my target or my focus.
First macro:
/tar snaplasher
/tar ancient
This macro sets my target and focus and in a single keystroke and lets me focus on building threat asap without worrying about sorting out targets.
Second macro:
#showtooltip shield bash
/cast [modifier:shift, target=focus] shield bash
/cast [nomodifier] shield bash
Macro button replaces my former keybinding for shield bash. This makes it easy to keep two targets locked out as a prot warrior.
For other classes, replace "shield bash" with your interrupt effect and you're good to go. The second macro is very versatile! Impress your guild by not letting a single Yogg-Saron add AE shadowbolt while you lock down two targets!

Limbaugh, Hannity, Beck jumping on board are the wall
Submitted by Smudge Pot on Sat, 03/09/2013 - 00:41between us and the rest of the nation. As soon as their brand is on it the message is instantly inaccessible to about half the nation and the partisan divide lives merrily on the the drums of war and corporatism.

"They" co-opted the teaparty and the OWS movement
"They" co-opted the teaparty and the OWS movement.... this is no different, they see this as an opportunity to co-opt the liberty movement and therefore dictate the narrative of what "they" deem important to the nation.
Rand is just a pawn in this game of politics... they don't actually like him or his ideals but they will use him to gain power within the movement until they control it. Once that happens they will go back to business as usual with talk of abortion and gay rights while simultaneously bashing rand for any thing and everything that doesn't fit with the new media controlled narrative.
I give it a month before the Rand bashing starts.
Tools of war are not always obvious. The worst weapon is an idea planted in the mind of man. Prejudices can kill, suspicion can destroy, and a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has an everlasting fallout all of its own.

I was born in Standish, MI in 1950. I am the middle child of three children. My father was born and raised in Tawas City and my mother in Alpena, MI. We lived in Tawas until I was 10 years old. When I was 8 years old our father passed away suddenly of a heart attack at age 39. In a flash our lives went from happy and carefree to sad and lonely. In 1960 our mother remarried and we moved to Davison, MI Where we were taken in by the Thompson family and loved as their own. They have been very good to us over the years. We are all grown and married with children and grandchildren, but we each still hold a special place in our hearts for Tawas City and our roots there. |

Best blender on the market, end of story. Incredible for smoothies / juices / soups. Pulverizes leaves / ice / anything really. This has replaced my juicer completely and my food processor for many tasks (makes nut butter in half the time!)
By pappaw
from Harrisville, WV
I use this product to liquefy fruits and veggies for healthy drinks and smoothies. It works beyond expectation. Next we are going to try some healthy soups. The blender is super easy to clean, unlike some juicers I've tried. Tad bit noisy at the top speeds, but that was to be expected.
Lot more than a typical blender
By K Nathan
from Chicago, IL
I had a quite few upgrades in short period when looking for better blender. Tried out Ninja, Vitamix 5300 and and finally this one. I am quite happy about this one and not looking for a better one. Main advantage compared to older model is its wider jar, which helps to get non liquid food out easily and does not block cabinet doors. The key differentiating factor from typical blender is the accompanied cook book and website with good amount of recipes which helps to harness the full power for Vitamix. On the downside, wider jar and higher blade clearance means a minimum of well over a cup is needed for blending. Obviously any one would welcome lesser noise ( The part that makes the noise tolerable is the fact that it blends almost anything in less than a minute and cooks in 5 min). Would also prefer lighter motor, as I tend not to keep the blender off the counter.

I've had this unit for a while now and it is really nice. I didn't eat a lot of fruits and vegetables before but with this it makes it really to just throw different things into a smoothie that I wouldn't normally eat, like spinach. It blends everything together so you can't even tell you're drinking something healthy. :) The only downside is it's still pretty loud, but considering what it is designed for I can get past that.

Application DetailsI applied online. The process took a week – interviewed at CDW in November 2014.
Interview DetailsApplied online and was contacted for an initial phone interview. The initial phone interview was about 20 mins and then we scheduled another ~45 min phone interview for the following day. Went through my resume and experiences in more depth and then was asked some behavioral psychology questions- ie Give a specific example of a time you had to motivate someone to take action.
Interview Questions- I was asked how I would respond to hypothetical scenarios if I was on the job as an account manager at CDW. For example, what would you do if a customer called and told you they found a competitor's product at a lower price. View Answer
Reasons for DecliningStarting salary is really low- 25k + little commission for first few years. Not planning to stay in sales long term so doesn't make sense.
Declined OfferPositive ExperienceEasy Interview - Application Details
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks – interviewed at CDW in August 2014.
Interview DetailsOne of the best hiring processes I've ever had. Extremely Fast, Used a recorded webcam for the intial interview. This allowed them to get many videos of potential clients before initiating webcam interviews with Management. This made the entire process revolutionary I have no doubt more and more companies a few years from now will be using this software for hiring. It made everything so fast and easy.
Interview Questions- What was your difficult customer service experience and how did you deal with it. View Answer
Negotiation DetailsWas pretty easy more than my previous job. It's a set price for every associate engineer so there wasn't much negotiation however it was not something I would have declined.Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceAverage Interview - Application Details
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week – interviewed at CDW in August 2014.
Interview DetailsThe interview process was very organized and my recruiter was extremely helpful, informative, and honest about the role. I didn't feel as though I was being sold a "used" car, similar to the way many organization will present themselves during a recruitment. The process was a standard (3) phone call approach with one for recruiter screening, a second with the hiring manager, and finally a third with the National team leader (more of a technical gap analysis). Once the phone calls were completed I moved into the face to face panel interview. The in-face interview was diversified across many of the different roles I will encounter and this provided a great chance to interview them as well as substantiate my abilities. The questions remained on point and there was a general sense of honesty and realistic expectations, as well as, provided response. Overall the entire process was very simple, uncomplicated, and probably one of the best hiring and interview processes I have been through.
Interview Questions- The most difficult portion of the process couldn't be defined by a single question. Instead I would highlight the entire panel interview. The panel did a great job of going around the room and diversifying the questions to keep topics varying. This forced me to continue to critically think about responses, instead of the standard expectation of interviews following a strict syllabus. Answer Question
Negotiation DetailsNegotiations were professional and fair. After doing research I would say my offer was above the median for the area and competitive.Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceAverage Interview - Application Details
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks – interviewed at CDW in August 2014.
Interview DetailsWhat an easy process from start to finish. After applying to the position through the website I received a call the very next week. Was scheduled for a phone interview with the Recruiter who was very friendly and informative about the position and CDW. She made sure I understood the interviewing process and was then scheduled for an onsite interview within the next two weeks. Everyone on the interviewing team took the time to not only find out about my background and expertise, but took the time to really talk about CDW and why people come to work here and more importantly why they stay. It was one of the best interviews I think I every went through. Everyone made me fell like I was already apart of the team. That is what made it for me!!!!! Great company,people and culture!!!!

I applied online. The process took 2+ months – interviewed at CDW in August 2014.
Interview DetailsI applied for the position online. About a week and a half later, I received an email from a recruiter asking if I was still interested in the position. I responded "yes" and received an email from another recruiter scheduling an in-person interview for that Friday with the supervisor and manager.
The interview was scheduled to last an hour, and that's exactly how long it took. The interview was very structured--both had papers with questions where they would write down my answers to compare with other candidates later. However, we did steer off-topic throughout the interview, which allowed it to become more conversational at points. The questions were related to project management, teamwork, time management, and other similar topics for an intense role. I was informed that the next step would be a writing exercise and then a meeting with the VP. We left the room laughing--a good sign.
The following Tuesday evening I received an email saying they were moving me to the next phase and to complete a writing assignment by Thursday morning. Researching the company online and Google definitely helped with the assignment.
After submitted the exercise, I didn't hear anything from the recruiter so I followed-up one week later asking for an update. She said they were supposed to have a decision made in a couple days and would let me know. One week later I followed-up again and received a similar response from the recruiter. The next week she emailed me saying two more positions opened up and asked if I would meet with a different manager. We scheduled that meeting for a couple days later. I heard from her the next day saying I was the top candidate for the initial position and scheduled a meeting with the VP the following Monday.
I met with him that Monday very quickly. He asked why I was interested in the company and the position. I was then introduced to the rest of the team. When I left the interview, I received an offer from another company. I let the hiring manager know, and they pulled an offer together for me the next morning. The offer, contingent upon passing a drug screen and background check, was what I expected so I happily accepted.
Overall, it was a great experience. The recruiter I worked with always promptly responded to my questions so I was never in the dark. I could tell at that initial phase that CDW really cares about their employees, which is certainly true.Interview Questions- All were expected based on the job description Answer Question
Negotiation DetailsNo negotiation. At first contact the recruiter gave me the salary range and a quick google search showed me the benefits online so I knew exactly what to expect, and it was what I wanted.Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceAverage Interview - Application Details
I applied online. The process took 3+ months – interviewed at CDW in August 2014.
Interview DetailsAlthough lengthy, my Recruiter and Hiring Manager did an excellent job of keeping me posted throughout the process and they met each communication deadline they committed to. Interview consisted of a phone interview with the Recruiter followed by an in-person one-on-one with the Hiring Manager. The next step was an interview panel with a/ the subordinates of this position where I had to present to them my 30-60-90 day plan, a tour of the Distribution Center, then followed by another panel interview consisting of 6 panel members (4 in the room and 2 via teleconference). Last round of the interview process was a 30 minute one-on-one with the Vice President of the Division and another 30 minutes with the Hiring Manager. After this I received an offer within a week and started 3 weeks later.

That led to a phone 1 on 1 interview with the hiring manager.

A clear sign that your bullpen is pitching well is when, with two outs in the ninth inning with no one on base and two outs, the closer is summoned from the bullpen, just to get some work.
On Friday night, wearing their red hats in honor of the 4th of July holiday, Jorge De La Rosa came three outs from breaking a Rockies franchise record for complete games in a row. After Jason Marquis dazzled the Dodgers on Tuesday and Jason Hammel pitched nearly as well on Wednesday, De La Rosa matched his teammates pitch for pitch.
With a 5-0 lead after eight innings, and 107 pitches thrown, De La Rosa may have been given a chance to change the Rockies record book, but the bullpen was in desperate need of some work. That meant that Joel Peralta was given the first two hitters and closer Huston Street was given the last hitter.
Overall De La Rosa's line read eight innings pitched, four hits with four walks and six strikeouts, while not giving up a single run. He was helped out by two ground ball double plays.
The success of De La Rosa epitomizes the recent success of the Rockies. During their hot streak their have been very few concerns with the Rockies. Wins have come easily and all facets of the game seem to be in sync. Yet, one of the concerns for the Rockies was De La Rosa.
De La Rosa is a hard throwing lefty who has the stuff to be successful in the big leagues. The only problem for him is that he is prone to the big inning. When runners get on, or when the umpire does not give him the calls that he wants, he implodes. The average fan can easily see him lose his composure at which time his mechanics fall apart he leaves the ball up in the zone, perfect for the opposition to hurt him with.
Friday night, however, was a different story. De La Rosa had all of his pitches working. His change up, a pitch that De La Rosa needs in order to be successful, was perfect. He threw it with ease and used it when he needed to make a big pitch.
The biggest measuring stick for De La Rosa, however, was the fact that when runners got on base he never lost his composure. Instead of forcing pitches and getting out in front of himself, the lefty sat back and let his defense do the work. De La Rosa induced two ground ball double plays and got 14 ground ball outs on the night.
For quite some time most who follow the Rockies have been waiting and wondering when Franklin Morales or someone else will fill in as the fifth starter for De La Rosa.
On Friday, De La Rosa made his critics look silly. Not distracted by the pressure of losing his spot, he made pitches when he needed to and kept hitters off balance with his breaking pitches.
It was a night that should add just a little more confidence to the Rockies clubhouse. After a June in which they set a club record for wins in a month and led all of baseball in victories, they now can feel confident in a strong starting rotation.
With De La Rosa pitching as well as he has been, and solidifying his abilities on Friday, Colorado now boasts one of the strongest rotations not only in the National League, but in all of baseball. Top to bottom, there is not one starting pitcher that gives the team the feeling that they will not be able to win the game that night.
When a team knows that they have the chance to be in a game every single day it gives them the confidence boost to scratch out hits and stay focused for the whole game in order to win the game.
From Aaron Cook to Jorge De La Rosa the Rockies have built the starting pitching staff to get them into the playoffs and possibly beyond.

text: Dead Space Should Tone Down the Action and Focus on Horror Nathan Hughes February 17, 2014 Envisioning Concepts is a brand new series where we examine some of the best developers and franchises of the industry, and envision what direction could be taken next. This can vary from possible locations, new mechanics and new directions we think could fit. As we have now entered a new generation of gaming, there's a lot of possibilities ahead for new games and new ideas for existing games. The article is a light-hearted look at "What could be?" and we encourage you, as a reader, to help contribute to the article in the comments below. The Dead Space series has been one that, like other survival horror series, has steered away from a horror atmosphere in favour of something more action orientated. The initial Dead Space entry in 2008 took everyone by surprise and delivered a horror game experience that relied equally on a level's atmosphere as it did jump scares. Borrowing the storytelling elements of BioShock's audiotapes, the resource management of Resident Evil and the look/feel of great sci-fi horror movies like Event Horizon and The Thing, Dead Space was hailed as a fresh "nail biting experience". However, the game was not perfect. Many people were critical of the game because of how repetitive the horror was. Dead Space relied heavily on too many jump scares that, while initially scary, left the gamer feeling almost too prepared with the knowledge that there was always something around the corner. Here's what the series can do to revitalise the horror in the game. More Weapon-Free Sections So what can Visceral Games do to help bring back the horror into Dead Space? Maybe they should take a leaf from its protégé Alien: Isolation and do something radical like take away the combat. Now before you act like Necromorph and bite my head off, hear me out. Many successful horror games as of late have adopted the "run away" approach where the main character is much weaker without any weapons and is faced against a huge enemy that relentlessly hunts down the player. You might think to yourself, "But dismemberment is one of the cores of Dead Space! You can't just cut out the combat!" And you're 100% correct. Dismemberment really is what gives Dead Space the edge over the other horror games, but I feel that Dead Space should try to take short breaks from the constant gore implement and add more sections where the main character has to run for his life to give back a sense of terror and helplessness. Both Dead Space and Dead Space 2 have had these moments in the beginning and they're legitimately some of the most terrifying parts of the game because Isaac Clarke is being hounded by these demonic creatures that are snarling for his blood and all he can do is run as fast away as he can. If the game had more of these moments where you have no choice but to run, it would get your heart pumping. More Ways To Use Stronger Kinesis One thing most Dead Space fans can agree on is that the Kinesis is incredibly fun. You can slow down enemies and use it to traverse through fast moving obstacles, but most important of all, you can use it to pick up spear-like objects, hurl them at Necromorphs and impale them on the wall. Nice. However, that's about as far it goes. Kinesis needs to have more use in the Dead Space series for sure. Imagine combining the destructibility of Battlefield with Dead Space; the Kinesis would have limitless opportunities as a weapon by combining gravity and rubble as a weapon. The player could shoot off a piece of the environment and then use the Kinesis to throw it at the Necromorphs, either crushing it or impaling it depending on the size and shape of the object, but at the cost of a huge chunk of the Kinesis power. Another way to make Kinesis more useful is to make it more powerful. Try to conceptualize using the Force powers of The Force Unleashed but in the Dead Space series. The player could use an increasingly upgrading Kinesis to trigger traps, collapse a ceiling, or split Necromorphs in two. One thing I know for sure is that Kinesis needs to get an upgrade and become just as powerful as the primary weapons. Back To Basics: Smarter Combat One of the key points to the original Dead Space is that Isaac Clarke is an engineer caught up in a nightmare on board an abandoned ship, and his arsenal consists of tools and equipment that he would use more so for repairs than defending himself. However, as the game progresses, Isaac gains more and more weapons that resemble tools less and less. This is more prevalent in 2 and 3 as Isaac acquires guns like a shotgun, pulse rifle and a force gun. Unfortunately, Dead Space has lost its way with the weapon choice as you no longer feel like you're underpowered. I can definitely get behind the idea of using flamethrowers, Ripper saws and the iconic Plasma Cutter, but when you start to use highpowered rifles and explosives, Dead Space loses its horror for something akin to squashing flies with a giant paddle. One of the very few areas where I feel Dead Space falls down is that the enemies are too easy and the combat is too simple. Now I don't mean that I've been playing on an incredibly easy difficulty and the enemies are just cannon fodder, but rather the nature of the enemies is too easy to defeat. Most enemies in the game can be permanently killed by hacking away at their arms and legs and stomping on their heads. While this is entertaining for the first 30 minutes or so, more variety needs to be in place with the way you defeat enemies. Sure, some enemies can crawl on walls and need to be shot down and other enemies rush at you, but there needs to be a variety in how you kill enemies and not just the enemy types. Imagine if one enemy could only be defeated by slinging your heavy Plasma Cutter at its face and shooting at it causes it to split into two smaller enemies. You could also have an enemy where you can only defeat it with fire so you would either have to have a flamethrower for a quick kill, or you would have to use Kinesis to throw an explosive into the air before shooting at it—similar to Uncharted 2. Dead Space has a huge variety of weapons, but the same can't be said for how you defeat the Necromorphs. One can play the entire game with only the Plasma Cutter, and while that's fun from a "hardcore" perspective, it can't hurt to utilise all the tools in Isaac's arsenal. Since Dead Space loves its gore, it should take a cue from Dark Souls and use death as a teaching tool. If the plasma cutter just makes the enemy more aggressive, the player should learn from Isaac's inevitable death that maybe they ought to use a rivet gun to shoot at the enemy's limbs first. No More Human Enemies One of the issues I had with Dead Space 3 is that at times, the Necromorph enemies take a back seat at times for an enemy soldier to challenge the player. While it does make sense in the context of the game, the flavor of the game diminishes into a generic "space marine 3rd person shooter". Dead Space is not Gears of War and it shouldn't try to be. The huge variations of disgusting Necromorphs that transform is what gives Dead Space that sense of panic and urgency. If it's just another human enemy, then it's just a case of shooting him in the head and that's the end of that. If that was a Necromorph, its head would be blown off but it'd still crawl towards you like something out of the Exorcist. It's incredibly chilling to watch, but that level of fear is thrown out the window when the enemy is just an enemy soldier. Pick A Path This is a bit of tricky suggestion as Dead Space thrives on narrow corridors and streamlined progression but I believe the series could do with a shake up of how you progress through a level. One thing Dead Space 3 did right was allowing for more exploration and side quests, giving players the opportunity to explore the world more than ever. While I appreciate this step, I would like to see a combination of an open style of traversal but with a linear path. Here's an example. Isaac Clarke is walking slowly through an office on a space station. He hears creaks and moans, and suddenly, a huge Necromorph bursts into the room. It seems that the Neromorph cannot be defeated and is practically invincible. Here's where you have 2 options. You can either shoot out the large window at the end of the room but risk the chance of being sucked into space, or you can attempt to barricade the room and lock the doors before continuing on. If Isaac chooses the former, he can use his thrusters to navigate back into the station but he would still end up at the same spot if his original choice was the latter. It's like two roads diverging but meeting up at the same spot. You get a different experience depending on which option you pick, but you still get to the same destination. This sort of "branching progression" could allow for some fresh gameplay and interesting discussion as it gives a level of customisation to the story as the player dictates what they feel Isaac would do in the situation. — Those are a few suggestions I think could help improve Dead Space. While I'm not a games designer by any means, I think it's always fun to debate with others about what would be interesting to see in a beloved series. That's what Envisioning Concepts is all about, and that's why we want your opinion! If you think you have an even better idea or a cool concept for Dead Space, let us know in the comments! Millan Singh I feel as though a lot of the ideas expressed in this article are pretty much the general feeling about Dead Space in the public, and especially from those who played the original. That said, this is a nice wrap-up of that same general feeling. I would be interested to see one of these articles focused on Splinter Cell, Crysis, and/or the Metro Series. I personally have some pretty strong feelings about all of these series, and I would be interested in seeing what you can come up with for one of them. Nathan Hughes Thanks for the feedback, Millan. Always great to read a positive word about a new article series. You can definitely expect more of these articles in the upcoming weeks, focusing on popular titles like the ones you mentioned. dirkradke I think at this point the dude isn't so much an engineer because in order for his character to grow he had to go beyond being just an engineer. What might work is him using his engineering skills to make some of the guns he finds far more powerful. Some of that was there in the previous games, but I'm talking about far more than adding a part that simply makes it more powerful but turns it into a whole new weapon that is useful. A regular soldier wouldn't be able to do this, but an engineer could, which means he is still indispensable and needed. Curt John Yes. That's why Dead Space 3 was a flop. This is also the issue with the Resident Evil series. The views expressed here are fairly common throughout the community, especially those that favor a more atmospheric, creeping-dread approach to the franchises they originally invested in for these elements that were later removed. Alas, action sells better than horror – or at least that's what the publishers believe so that's what we get. http://www.blackxino.blogspot.com/ Xino they should just go back to Dead Space 2, that game was awesomely designed very well. they ruined Dead Space 3 man, the co-op was not done rightly. it should have been done like Resident Evil Zero and d00m 3. Damien L. Dead Space always felt more like an action game than a horror one to me, even considering the limitations of the original. One of my biggest issues is the way that the enemy designs are designed to horrify based on biology, rather than anything truly frightening. I mean, great horror is based on the unknown, so why are we fighting mutated babies and humans and stuff. It's kinda weak. I do like these suggestions, but I think that Dead Space should probably be shelved for a while, especially after those rumours prior to the release of DS3 that EA really wanted to expand it with space flight simulators and FPS games and all sorts of stuff being shoehorned into the Dead Space universe. It is a tad disappointing that Visceral are on a Star Wars game now, though… Dakan45 dead space was awesome game, closest thing to system shock 2 Dead space 2 had too much action and was too linear dead space 3 was borring and repettive with awful combat. Seriously no scares and the weaposn didnt cut stuff as well as before most enemies i shot mutliple times and run up at my face. Now pay attention to what i am gonna say, resident evil 6 was a better game… GAME not survival horror, it had better campaign and better combat. Its obvious visceral is depressed, or thats the vibe i got from dead space 3. Loz you wanted 5 million sales and microtransactions for this? Next game needs a new developer with the same setting as the first more horror and no coop Ps outlast was borring ot me, cry of fear is the best. hopefully evil within is good and sells well so more horror games will come out. trob6969 …so basically, make it boring like Silent Hill and EVERY other horror game before it. All three Dead Space games got the balance of horror and action right. Logan Mason Finally a dead space article! There's only been no news or anything dead space related! I agree though, when they get back to the series within the next 3-6 yrs I'm guessing. They should seriously take their time and take articles like this into consideration! – a dead space fanatic http://www.onlysp.com/ Nick Calandra Did you find it through Google? Billy Lutz Honestly I love Dead Space I think its the best Horror Game still out there on console anyway haha but If you look at it from the Game designers point of View you have to think the Reason theres more action is that Issac is literally fighting for everything just not his life the reason theres humans is that they need to stop Issac to continue their Fucked up prophecy But I do have to agree too they need to bring back tools not guns so your underpowered and definitely destruction to environments would be amazing ! Definitely but the reason I think it lost its horror is that in the first game the Necromorphs are so human like yet they're not you know duhh but in Dead Space 3 theyve been on the planet for over 1000 year their deformed and dirty n ot really scary but in Dead Space 3 Awakening DLC the Horror really came back and it was classic Dead Space all over again but my point is the game was going in the right direction but along the way some gore and horror was lost .

Editor's Note: This is the From the Field column, written by TheGrower.com editor Vicky Boyd.
Larry Steckel, a University of Tennessee Extension weed specialist in Jackson, likes to compare the growing problem of herbicide-resistant weeds to Americans' health habits.
You're going along overweight, smoking and drinking a bit too much beer. In the back of your mind, you know you should change your habits, but you won't until a health issue, such as a heart attack, serves as a wake-up call.
Well, many growers—particularly those in the Midwest and South who grow Roundup Ready crops—are having a "pigweed heart attack," to use Steckel's words.
Some fields may never recover from that pigweed heart attack. But it should serve as a wake-up call to others, including growers of specialty crops, to change their habits and adopt a more herbicide-healthy lifestyle.
That includes scouting before and after herbicide applications; rotating modes of action; using tankmixes that contain different modes of action; using proper adjuvants, nozzle sizes and droplet sizes; rotating crops where applicable; and using mechanical cultivation if possible.
Steckel told his story at BASF and Bayer CropScience media conferences leading up to the recent Commodity Classic in Nashville.
Scattered pockets of glyphosate-resistant weeds have been confirmed in specialty crops throughout the nation.
They include rigid ryegrass in California's Imperial Valley and northern Sacramento Valley; Italian ryegrass in Oregon filbert orchards; marestail and hairy fleabane in central California; and Palmer amaranth in a handful of Georgia vegetable fields and New Mexico pecan orchards.
But the resistance problem isn't nearly as widespread as the millions of acres of infested corn, soybean and cotton ground where growers had adopted an herbicide program based almost exclusively on glyphosate.
In a few short years, water hemp in the Midwest and Palmer amaranth in the South have grown so resistant to glyphosate that many growers never harvest their crops. Instead, they take bush hogs or disks to them, Steckel says. Both weeds are members of the pigweed family.
He estimates that Palmer amaranth cost Tennessee growers of field crops $120 million in 2011 alone.
"If you're doing a scorecard, we're failing at trying to steward glyphosate," Steckel says. "We're running it right off a cliff in many of our areas."
One of the linchpins of an integrated weed management program is scouting, both before and after herbicide application.
You need to scout initially to determine what weed species are present, he says Then choose the appropriate products based on the pest spectrum.
You also need to scout after the application to determine the extent of control. If you see a healthy weed next to a dead weed next to an injured one, that's a sign that something's wrong.
Leaving those healthy but treated weeds in the field is the worst thing you can do, Steckel says. You need to remove them immediately.
Growers in the South learned the hard way. They saw a few Palmer amaranth plants escape glyphosate treatments one season. The next year, the problem had spread throughout most of the field. And by year three, the field was unharvestable and you couldn't see the crop for the weeds.
