Game 1 Scrappers/Doubledays
Mahoning Valley Scrappers vs. Auburn Doubledays (New York-Penn League)
Eastwood Field-Niles, Ohio: I was very excited about not only my first Scrappers game, but my first experience with the legendary New York-Penn League. As we usually do our baseball trip in May before the short season starts, we've just never had a chance to catch a New York-Penn League game. The ballpark is pretty unique, just in the fact that it's located just behind a mall in Niles. What's funny, is that they don't just charge $2 for parking, but for fans that walk into the stadium. Hey, you don't want fans parking at the mall to avoid that $2 do you? Such as things go, our first game didn't go off smoothly, however. The same rain that washed us out of Columbus forced a cancellation here in Niles, also. They started a double-header and hour and a half earlier than the stated start time, and due to the drive from Toledo, we could only make the second half of game one. We had pretty good seats, though, and even another set of fans insisted that we were in the wrong seats. Of course we were right, and set camp right next to the Auburn Doubledays dugout. We were so close to the dugout, that you could probably just have put us on the roster. These amazing seats only cost me a whopping $5 a piece, another example of the minors being the best deal in pro sports. I tried to strike up a conversation with one of the Auburn players, but he no hablo ingles'. Because we'd already missed half of game one, I tried to snap as many pics as possible, too, to try to make up for lost time. Thier mascot is a bulldog named Scrappy, who we only saw a few times during some on-field activities, so I guess I was lucky to capture at least on photo of him. Personally, when I think of 'Scrappy', it's that annoying puppy off Scooby-Doo…the only version of the show that Brian and I don't watch.
What we saw of game one, was a good one, if you like pitching and defense, anyway. The teams only play a seven inning game when doing a double-header like this. The Scrappers were up 2-0 when we arrived, and saw them score another run in the fifth inning. The Mahoning Valley offense was led by first baseman Leo Castillo, who went 1-1 with two walks and a home run. Left fielder Jorge Martinez went 1-3 with two RBI's, and center fielder Josh McAdams went 2-2. On the hill, Sean Brady threw four scoreless innings, but Justin Garcia earned the win, and Luis Gomez the save. Even though it was just half of a game, my first New York-Penn League experience was fun, and I expected a lot out of the next game. We took the time between games to get some $1 hot dogs and beers, and to visit the 'Pet Shop' gift store. I made a video during the second game, and I'll have that posted on my next entry. Final: Scrappers 3, Doubledays 0.
Return to Mudville
Toledo Mud Hens vs. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (International League)
Fifth Third Field-Toledo, OH: Well, it's been about seven years since our last trip to Toledo to see the Mud Hens, so it was about time we made it back to Mudville. We stayed in Findlay, so it was a fairly brief drive into Toledo. With any downtown stadium, parking can be tough, but we got there early enough to make it into the lot across the street. The weather was perfect, even though it had rained the night before. I was hoping for maybe a double-header, but the Hens finished five innings the night before to make it a complete game. We had plenty of time to get a beer and a dog for lunch, and get some shopping in. I was hoping to get Brian a Muddy mascot, but they didn't have any for some reason. He was happy I picked him up a Ghostbusters night t-shirt, though, as he loves that movie. There was a pretty decent crowd, and, as many mid-week day games go, catered to kids and seniors. I really do love seeing kids at ball games, but when they're brought in for groups, the counselors really need to set some rules for them. The kids next to us were in and out of their seats every inning, which can be distracting, and inconvenient for my elderly father. Before the game we also got to see Tigers' prospect Robbie Ray getting some extra work in. He didn't pitch on this day, but always cool to see a top prospect. The mascot Muddy also paraded some kids from a youth group around the field.
As the Mud Hens are a Tigers affiliate, I was pretty familiar with most of the players, and had seen many of them in West Michigan. The RailRiders even had former Whitecap Scott Sizemore on their roster, who was one of my favorite players from the 'Caps 2007 Midwest League championship team. Others we've seen before included first baseman Jordon Lennerton, second baseman Brandon Douglas, third baseman Wade Gaynor, catcher James McCann, and Duane Below who was on the mound for Toledo. The game got off to a good start, with the Hens scoring twice in the first inning on Tyler Collins sacrifice fly, and a home run by Trevor Crowe. Gaynor hit an RBI double in the second inning to take a 3-0 lead.
With the Mud Hens doing well, I took the opportunity to explore the ballpark a little bit more. I love the full wrap-around concourses, and used it to get some nice shots, including a panoramic of the stadium.
The 'Roost' is a set of seats connected to a neighboring building, with a great view of the game. We couldn't buy these unfortunately, because they are always saved for a group outing. The usher, or 'guard', at the stairs to the Roost let me sneak up there and take a few pics, even though he made it clear he wasn't supposed to.
We were also able to see the RailRiders ambidextrous pitcher Pat Venditte for a few innings. He took the loss for Scranton/WB, though. I remember watching him throw back in 2009 when he was playing for the Charleston River Dogs.
The Hens gave up three runs in the sixth inning, but got those three right back. Both teams ended up trading runs in the eighth inning, also. Ezequiel Carrera went 1-4 on the day with two runs scored and a stolen base, while Gaynor ended up 2-3. Below earned the win, pitching 6.2 innings, giving up the three runs, with one strike out and Kevin Whelan earned the save. Carrera also made a wicked catch in the outfield. In all, this was just a great day watching a great game, and I got a game ball to top it all off. I really love Fifth Third Field, and need to make it there much more often. Final: Mud Hens 7, RailRiders 4.

Clipped in Columbus
Columbus Clippers vs. Buffalo Bisons (International League)
Huntington Park-Columbus, OH: For our official first game of our 2014 baseball trip, we travelled south into Ohio. I'm dedicating this season's trip to my favorite baseball movie Major League, due to its 25th anniversary, and the fact we're visiting so many Cleveland Indians affiliates! Columbus is a great sports city, and we actually spent the day there checking out Ohio State, the Jack Nicklaus museum, and the Columbus Blue Jackets' arena. We arrived at Huntington Park early, so we were one of the first few fans through the gates to explore at little. The home of the Clippers is really a nice Triple-A stadium that has many positive aspects. There doesn't seem to be a bad seat in the house, and even has a group of seats attached to a building next to it in left field. The main concession stand was an island, so you don't always have to miss part of the game when getting a snack or a beer. The ballpark also had many bits of baseball history, and history of the sport in Columbus, which I always find interesting. The Clippers have two mascots, Lou Seal and Krash (a parrot). Neither were active in the crowd, only on the field before the game. We were also joined by my best friend Darryl who lives near Dayton, so it was a pretty special game for us.
Unfortunately, we only got four innings in before the rain started. It really wasn't all that bad at first, but then came down in buckets with thunder and lightning to boot. The storm really didn't last that long, but the lightning stuck around long enough for them to postpone the game. The Clippers were up on the Buffalo Bisons 3-1 when the game was called, but ended up losing 5-3 when it was resumed the next day. Fans said the big prospect in the Clippers is Jesus Aguilar, and he went 1-3 in the game. Left fielder Tim Fedroff led the way for Columbus, going 2-4 with a double and RBI. On the mound, Travis Banwart started the game, but Nick Hagadone took over when it was resumed the next day, taking the loss. Even though we only got four innings in, we had fun in Columbus and the Clippers are a must see for baseball fans. Postponed: Clippers 3, Bisons 1 (3-5 Final).

50th Midwest League All-Star Classic
East Division vs. West Division
Fifth Third Ballpark-Comstock Park, MI: We started off this seasons' baseball trip with a bang this year, right here in Michigan with the 50th Midwest League All-Star Classic. The doors opened at 4:00, so when we arrived we were able to watch some of the West players during batting practice. We were really lucky it turned out to be such a beautiful day, too, as the forecast called for some rain, and thankfully we never got a drop.
There were plenty of things going on to keep fans entertained during the three hours until the first pitch, also. Joining the hometown mascots Crash, Franky, and Roxy, were Big Lug (Lansing), Johnny (Fort Wayne), Lou E. Loon (Great Lakes), and Fang (Wisconsin). The mascots did a great job all night and throughout the game. Crash and Lou E. Loon really stood out from the others, though, in entertaining the crowd.
Fans were also lucky enough to get down on the field and get some autographs from the all-stars. They didn't give us a whole lot of time, but I was able to get most of the East team to sign a baseball for the kids. It was fun talking to the players, also, even the ones from opposing teams we don't get to see that often. All the players were great with the fans, and seemed very happy to be participating in the game.
Another pre-game activity was the 'Lost Art of Bunting' contest. Players from each team had a chance to try bunting the ball onto select targets down the first and third base side. This year's winner was Mallex Smith, and outfielder for the Fort Wayne TinCaps.
Also on hand to sign some autographs was Detroit Tigers' legend Willie Horton. Being a World Champion for the Tigers in 1968, he was someone my parents watched back in the 60's and 70's. We made sure he signed a ball for both of them, and I tried to get Horton in a photo with my dad, but there was some bad lighting. Still better than nothing, though. There was a long line for autographs, but it moved pretty quickly. Almost comical, though, as you couldn't have him personalize an autograph or get an actual picture with him.
Now, on to the game itself…which was a blowout. You'd think an all-star game would be pretty competitive, but the West shut down the hitters from the East almost the entire game. In fact, the East was no-hit for 7 2/3 innings, before South Bend's Marty Herum wrecked it. The Whitecaps' starting pitcher Jonathan Crawford took the loss for the East, giving up one run in two innings of work. The 'Caps Buck Farmer came in and pitched a scoreless fifth inning. He struck out one, walked one, and hit one batter. He leads the Midwest League with 87 strikeouts. Wynton Bernard played left field the entire game, going 0-3 with a walk, and leaving two runners on. Second baseman Javier Betancourt came into the game in the fifth inning. Although he was tied for the league lead in hits, he went 0-2 with a line-drive out and a ground-out. West Michigan pitchers Austin Kubitza, Chad Green, and reliever Joe Mantiply did not make an appearance.
The MVP award went to Hershel 'Boog' Powell of the Beloit Snappers. Boog went 1-3 with two walks, two stolen bases, and a two-run double. Even though the games wasn't a close one, it was still an exciting experience for any baseball fan. And, hey, at least I caught a game ball! Final score: East 0, West 7.

R.I.P. 'Back in the Game'
Goodbye to the TV show, Back in the Game. We hardly knew you. That fact, however, is no fault of our own. The higher ups at the flailing American Broadcasting Company made the decision to cancel this great show after airing only ten episodes. As of this time, there are no plans to air the remaining three. Really? Why not just let the show runs it's course with all thirteen episodes shown, and make a decision from there. If the genius' that brought us Three's Company and Mork & Mindy were still running things at ABC, I'm sure Back in the Game would have been picked up for at least another season. For those who have yet to enjoy this show, it's about a single mom who moves back in with her dad (a former professional baseball player), and coaches her son's Little League team. After playing baseball and softball all her life, she makes a great coach, and a better mother. I have to admit, though, it's easy to become smitten by Maggie Lawson's character, Terry, Jr. She's seriously cute, and her character is simply a great person. James Caan plays Terry's dad, The Cannon, and steals the scenes when he's on like Ricky Henderson taking second base. It's a great show about family, with baseball as the backdrop. Although compared to the Bad News Bears, the Angles (miss-spelled from Angels) are a unique bunch. This weeks episode even featured our own former Fox Sports Detroit Girl, Allison as a guest star. If you haven't had a chance to see the show yet, you can check it out on ABC.com or Hulu-Plus. If you like what you see, please sign the petition to save this show HERE.
Baseball Trip finalized for 2014
Next seasons' Baseball Trip will be a little later this time, in June instead of May. One of the reasons for the change, is that we wanted to hit the Midwest League All-Star game on June 17th in West Michigan. This should be a great experience as I've never been to an all-star game before. This will be the hardest game to get tickets for, so I really need to be on the ball when they go on sale. The next day takes us south to Columbus, OH to check out our first Clippers game. I've heard nothing but good things about the stadium and franchise, so it should be a game to remember. The day after is a double-header for us. We start out with the Toledo Mud Hens for a day game. We saw the Hens back in 2007, and look forward to another great time at Fifth-Third Field. After we see the Hens, we head east to see the Mahoning Valley Scrappers and our first New York-Penn League game. Travelling in the early spring usually prevents us from making these games, since they start their season in mid-June. We stay busy the next morning, hitting the big city of Cleveland to check out the Baseball Heritage Museum. I don't know much about this, so if anyone has been there any info would be appreciated. Next we enjoy more Midwest League action visiting the Lake County Captains in Eastlake, just east of Cleveland. Lake County and Bowling Green are the only two MWL teams I haven't visited yet, as they transferred from the South Atlantic League a few years ago.
The next stop on our journey should be interesting, visiting Canton, OH, and just south of that the Temperance Tavern and Cy Young Museum. Again, I don't have much info on this, so if anyone has visited there I'd appreciate your input. That's just one stop on our way to Washington, PA to see the Wild Things in Frontier League action. Washington is an independent team, but it look like they have a nice stadium. The town was just awarded a pro softball franchise called the Revolution, too, so that's something else to look into. The next morning, we travel north to see the Detroit Tigers' Double-A affiliate, the Erie Seawolves. This is another team I've wanted to see for some time, and look forward to checking out some of the Tigers' prospects. Another double-header for us, we go a little farther east to check out our second New York-Penn League team in the Jamestown Jammers. And..our trip concludes with the newly dubbed Akron RubberDucks. This should be a fun adventure if the weather holds, and it should be better in June. If anyone has been to this region and can recommend any other points of interest or eating establishments, I'd love to hear about them.
2013 Baseball Trip-Game 11: The home field advantage
West Michigan Whitecaps vs. Bowling Green Hot Rods (Midwest League)
Fifth-Third Ballpark-Comstock Park, MI: As much as I loved my time in North Carolina, it was good to be back in Michigan, and have the home field advantage. It felt comfortable to be back in my own ballpark, and to see the Whitecaps play for the first time this season. After riding in airplanes most of the day, it was nice to be in the fresh air and wandering around Fifth-Third Ballpark. We were also one of the lucky ones to get an Avisail Garcia bobble head at the gate. It was good to see the best mascot in the minors, Crash the River Rascal, hamming it up on the concourse with the kids. I wandered down and watched the Whitecaps warm up, and got some good pics of the team. I was excited to see guys like Devin Travis and Danry Vasquez in action. It was also cool to see new pitching coach Mike Henneman, who was one of my favorite Tigers when I was younger. Henneman seemed to be joking around with his staff a little, and keeping his pitchers loose. It was good to see some familiar faces and be back home, and this will go down as one of the best baseball trips ever.
The game did not go our way, and the Whitecaps home field advantage did them little good as the Hot Rods shut them right down. Starting pitcher Charlie Gillies took the loss, but had no run support. He gave up three runs and struck out three, in just over five innings of work. Both second baseman Jared Reaves and third baseman Mario Martinez went 2-4, but could not help get a run across the plate. Win or lose, however, there's still no place that I'd rather be. Final score: Whitecaps 0, Hot Rods 4.
2013 Baseball Trip-Game 10: It's always Sunny in Kannapolis
Kannapolis Intimidators vs. Hagerstown Suns (South Atlantic League)
CMC-Northeast Stadium-Kannapolis, NC: Wow…what to do on a day when we only have one game scheduled to attend? Well, if you're into the nascar thing, then you would have enjoyed our experiences. Our first stop was in Concord, NC, home of the Charlotte Motor Speedway. Despite the advertising of daily tours around the track, we found they were cancelled because some trucks were practicing all weekend. Great luck, so we poked around a bit and headed out. Just down the street there was a nice little car museum, so we decided to check that out. The highlight for me was seeing a couple of cars used in the movie Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (if you're not first, you're last…). We still had plenty of time before our game in Kannapolis, so, sticking with the nascar theme, we decided to head back into downtown Charlotte to the nascar Hall of Fame. Our experience there was ok, but decided just to head back north to Kannapolis. We arrived a little early, but noticed that the gates were open. The ballpark wasn't really open to the public then, but I started chatting with head of ticket sales, and he was nice enough to open the gift shop for me so we could get our souvenirs and put them back in the car before the game. The whole Intimidators staff was very friendly, and treated us well. We actually had time to take and little snooze in the car before the gates officially opened. Before heading inside, though, I took a few pics of the race car parked in front of the stadium…sticking with the nascar theme, of course. Kannapolis is the birthplace of deceased nascar driver Dale Earnhardt, and the Intimidators are named after him. Inside, we had plenty of time to explore the small ballpark before the game began. This included hanging out with mascot Tim E. Gator. The concourse was nice, and wide open. There were some good eats, too, but we just stuck with beer and hot dogs. I bought seats in the V.I.P. section, right next to the Intimidators dugout. On a two dimensional seating chart, the seats looked great, but in reality, I had a huge pole directly in front of me, and couldn't see anything. With a small crowd, we quickly found new seats. CMC-Northeast Stadium is a nice, unique, ballpark, and was a good low-key end to our adventures in North Carolina, as I really love the South Atlantic League.
The in-game action started out well for the home town nine. They scored three runs in the first inning, and one run in the fourth to take a 4-1 run lead. Things would fall apart in the late innings, though, as they gave up four and five runs in consecutive innings to go down 10-4. They battled back in the eighth, scoring three runs to cut the Suns' lead to three, but couldn't come up with the equalizer. The Intimidators got great production our of right fielder Jason Coats, who went 3-5 with four RBI's and two runs scored. Brandon Brennan took the loss on the hill for Kannapolis, going 6.1 innings and giving up four earned runs. Relief pitcher Todd Kibby really got roughed up, though, not even lasting one innings and giving up four runs on three walks and one hit. Final score: Intimidators 7, Suns 10.
2013 Baseball Trip-Game 9: Dashing back to Winston-Salem
Winston-Salem Dash vs. Myrtle Beach Pelicans (Carolina League)
BB&T Ballpark-Winston-Salem, NC: Ok, so we were in Winston-Salem a few days ago, and now we came back to see the Dash play in more Carolina League action. I really wish we could have stayed and explored Asheville a little more, but this is the life we're leading on these trips. Our evening starting with an amazing dinner at Tripps Restaurant, where my dad was reunited with an old army buddy that he hasn't seen in many years. It was an amazing experience to listen to their stories and see them catch up. It was hard to break away, but we finally did and headed to the ballpark. The home of the Dash, BB&T Ballpark, is very impressive for single-A baseball. It had a nice large parking lot, which made things easy for us to get in and out. We entered through the outfield, which is something we've been seeing more and more of in recent years. The modern park is very beautiful, and looked like it didn't have a bad seat in the house. I liked the fact that the concourse goes entirely around the field, too. Thier mascot Bolt was entertaining, and played some tricks on the umpire before the game. I never saw him in the stands interacting with the fans, though, which is too bad. The ballpark is really nice, but to me it seemed a little sterile. Maybe just because it's so new, and that we were at a game during the week without a huge crowd. Still lots of fun, and a ballpark worth visiting.
The game saw the home team get roughed up a bit, especially early. Dash pitcher Chris Bassitt only lasted 2.1 innings, and gave up nine runs. The bullpen seemed to keep the visiting Pelicans in check the rest of the way, though. Shortstop Chris Curley led the offensively, going 2-4 on the night. Left fielder Grant Buckner, however, had the two RBI's going 1-4. Final score: Dash 2, Pelicans 9.
2013 Baseball Trip-Game 8: A Driving Tour of Asheville
Asheville Tourists vs. Greenville Drive (South Atlantic League)
McCormick Field-Asheville, NC: I just want to start off by stating that I loved this game. I love McCormick Field, and this should be on every baseball fans bucket list. Another downtown stadium, so parking is a little rough. That, however is the about the only thing you'd have to worry about. The stadium is located on a large hill, or mountain, I guess, which make for some nice scenery. The whole setup of the stadium is nice, with the concourse and gift shop in a nice setting. Part of the concourse is limited by part of the mountain, also. Our seats were great, as we got the dugout suites right next to the home team dugout. This luxury comes with snacks, drinks, and a chicken dinner from Bojangles'. We really felt we were treated like royalty! It was a day game which saw some buses of school kids enjoying the game also. This helped make for a great atmosphere, as well as the loyal regulars of McCormick Field. Another unique aspect, is that one lucky fan gets to deliver the game ball via a zip line. It was fun to watch, and must have been a great experience for that fan! The fact that it was a day game make it a little warm for us, but I can only imagine how awesome a night game would be here. The home team put on a great show, and I also got my first South Atlantic League game ball. This honestly rivals Durham for the best game on the trip. You can also see McCormick Field at the end of the movie Bull Durham, where Crash hits his record breaking home run.
The game itself was a good one for the Tourists. When we saw the Drive a few days before they looked like a pretty solid hitting team, but Asheville hurler T.J. Oaks seemed to keep them of the kilter all day, as he went seven innings and only gave up the one run. The Tourists took the game over with a huge seven run fourth inning. It seemed like they were pounding doubles off the wall left and right. Second baseman Juan Ciriaco seemed to be the player of the game. Not only did he toss me the game ball, but he went 3-5 with an RBI. Rosell Herrera also pitched in, going 2-5 with a pair of RBI's. Final score: Tourists 8, Drive 1.

It may have only been underage drinking, but when he jumped in the river, it was a whole new ballgame. If he had drowned, you would be blaming the cops for letting that happen right under their very eyes. Once he is swimming in river, it's a search and rescue incident until he is safely recovered.

Making childcare decisions
To school or to bed?
Terri: "I've sometimes done the very thing I've cautioned parents against in my practice: Giving my daughters Tylenol in the morning, hoping they'll make it through the day. Sometimes I send them off to school and say, 'If you feel worse, call me and I'll come get you.' I know they could probably benefit from a day at home, resting — and that they could be exposing kids at school to their colds. I try not to do it, but I have to admit I've been guilty of it."
Who's on sick duty?
Jennifer: "Back when I was seeing patients full-time, if Jack was sick and needed to stay home, my husband and I would quickly figure out which of us had an easier load that day. My husband was often able to rearrange his schedule and stay home because he was in grad school at the time, but if I had to stay home my colleagues helped cover for me and took over seeing my patients."
Angela: "My husband and I decided we're going to hire a nanny instead of sending our child to daycare. One of the big reasons was imagining what it would be like if the baby had a cold and neither of us could get away from work (my husband's a doctor, too). There are some great daycares around, but we like knowing that we'll be covered if our child isn't feeling well.
"If the nanny is sick, herself, with a fever, vomiting, or diarrhea, I'd want her to stay home. (Colds and coughs would be okay with me, as long as she practices good hand-washing and doesn't cough near the baby.) In that case, I'd ask my mom or a friend who lives nearby to fill in. And if neither of them could do it, I'd stay home from work."
What's your story? Who stays home from work when your baby, toddler, or older child is ill — and have you sent her off sick to daycare or school?

The next season of "American Horror Story" officially has a new member: Lady Gaga!
As her first starring role on television, the pop star will appear in the fifth season of the hit FX series, which is slated to return in October. While her character has not yet been revealed, Ryan Murphy, the show's creator, has said that major clues were left in the fourth season about the upcoming installment.
"American Horror Story" star Ben Woolf was rushed to a nearby hospital after being hit by a car in Hollywood last night (Feb. 19)
According to a new report, the actor, who plays Meep on the show, was hit in the head by the side-view mirror of a passing SUV as he was crossing the street. He was immediately transported to a local hospital where he remains in intensive care. Because he was jaywalking when the accident occurred, the driver was not cited, TMZ reported.
Adding to his impressive list of roles this year, Neil Patrick Harris revealed that he is going to have a guest role on "American Horror Story: Freak Show."
According to TVLine, the "How I Met Your Mother" actor will appear on the final two episodes of the series with hubby David Burtka.
Things are looking great for Ryan Murphy's "American Horror Story: Freak Show" as Season Four's premiere had the highest ratings ever for the FX Network.
Nabbing 13 million total viewers, the program topped all other shows for the 20-year history of the channel, leading CEO John Landgraf to declare, "The American Horror Story anthology has had the highest growth trajectory of any show in FX history, not to mention an unprecedented track record of success in awards recognition."
Kicking off a new season of her hit FX show, Emma Roberts showed up at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood on Sunday (October 5) for the big premiere of "American Horror Story: Freak Show."
Joined by costars Sarah Paulson and Lea Thompson, the "Adult World" actress was the center of attention in her black frock as she smiled for the cameras.
He's quite prolific in the entertainment industry these days and last night (October 5) creator Ryan Murphy invited his pals from the "Glee" cast to attend the premiere of his new season of "American Horror Story: Freak Show."
The TCL Chinese Theater in Hollywood was replete with beautiful people such as Lea Michele, Chord Overstreet, and Becca Tobin.
As the biggest night of the year for the television industry, the 2014 Primetime Emmy Awards was quite the star-studded occasion on Monday evening (August 25).
Leading the way was "Breaking Bad," thanks to big wins in both the Best Drama and Best Actor in a Drama Series, while "Modern Family" predictably won for Best Comedy Series.
Celebrating their hit FX series, Evan Peters and Emma Roberts attended an "American Horror Story" event at 2014 PaleyFest in Hollywood on Friday (March 28).
The "We're the Millers" star looked gorgeous in a sleeveless white, knee-length dress while her co-star and fiancée wore a blazer over his tuxedo T-shirt.

Isle of Skye
very lovely shot, Barbara..indeed a spiritual place and its shows well through this image nicely done with the b&w..would possibly crop the image from the lower right to place the grass against the wall in the lower left corner, but cant tell if that would cut off too much from the right side of the frame to keep the same ratio..just a thought :) also, is some halo-ing going on around the tombstone and wall..figure that is from reducing the highlights in the sky..think it works good here however, adds to the spiritual feeling, just something to look out for in the future :)
Sep 5th, 2012 Replyaww... thank you so much for your warmhearted and most helpful comment Addam.... i really appreciate your words... especially the ones about the halo effect... in fact... i thought i cared for this problem... but actually not well enough.... i was too much focussed on the dramatic of the sky... i wanted too much and cared too less.....am so glad you helped me to make it better in the future.. am really really so happy you spent this time to explain and help me. I will adjust it and upload again.... again... a huge thank you to you !!!!!!
Sep 5th, 2012 Replyi know the feeling all so well! has been a troublesome part of my photography many a times..always focusing on certain parts allowing the entire scene to slip away..is true for my old compositions..even present ones at times! especially with waterfalls..focus so much on the fall that i dont even see whats in the rest of the scene..a beautiful fall that is ruined by distracting branches, blemishes..though that is not the case with your capture! can only better our arts by learning what others see..am very thankful for all the critiques that i have received and am very happy that you accept them so well..shows how much you want to capture the beauty around you and share it the best you can :) is truly a pleasure my dear
Sep 5th, 2012 Replyaww..... thank you again for all your support ... you are so so right.... and just your comments have helped and still do help me a lot... i am deeply thankful !!
p.s. Scotland's waterfalls are open... no tree around... i took a few photos of waterfalls to show you.. but they are not to compare with your awesome works.... but i will upload one :-))))
it is more natural... and without the halo effect.... i love the cropped version, again... i am so thankful for your helpful advises... very very kind of you Addam....
Sep 6th, 2012 Replyit feels wonderful!
Sep 3rd, 2012 Replythere was a special atmosphere there.... and the light on the horizon made it even more dramatic.... thank you !!

Argue the toss in a twisted tale of logic...
In ir/rational you complete, create and discredit arguments by selecting propositions and filling in the blanks. It's a puzzle game based on propositional logic, and a graphic adventure all in one - only here you don't so much need to escape the room as prove why you'd even want to.
- Unique, language-based argument system: formulate logical proofs to progress through the game
- Dark philosophical comedy by Tom Jubert, writer of Penumbra, Driver: San Francisco and FTL.
- 10 screens and roughly half an hour of intelligent, challenging and inventive gameplay
- Musical score by award-winning composer Mikko Tarmia

- Complete the arguments by selecting options from the drop-down menus
NB Some systems don't display all the dropdown options at once, and you have to use the arrow keys to scroll.
If you can't see the right answer, chances are you can resolve the problem with the arrow keys. Hope it's not dampened your enthusiasm!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Thanks Alot! This is the topic we are learning from our Math subject (Geometry) , its called Deductive Reasoning. People who are smart in math and haven't studied this lesson will probably pass this game. Unless of course for the 10th level, you would really need to study the symbols of it.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
This was... interesting. Certainly very mind bending. I also like the ambiguous twist at the end. Will there be a sequel? I certainly hope so.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
This is, undoubtedly, a god tier game. Because of this game I will begin using logic more throughout my days. I am doing it right now, by stating facts in short sentences. You have done well in the construction of this game. A sequel would be appreciated.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Well the game was fun and interesting bu the endin suckes they should really make it a sequel...ike he wakes up in another room for more q's and a'sbut this time he get the hell out.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
This game really made me think... a lot. The entire sequence of the game being mental stress, followed by a (terrible) relief lead me to believe that nothing has any meaning. Great game though!

Checking Ink and Printer Compatibility
In Chapter 5, you read that inkjet printing involves the transfer of tiny droplets of ink to specially designed photo paper. Not all inks work with photo transfer media. Epson's UltraChrome inks, for example, do not work with iron-on transfer paper.
Don't Use UltraChrome Inks for Special Projects Epson's UltraChrome inks do not work with most of the special print projects I describe in this chapter, including transparencies and stickers. UltraChrome inks also do not work with many special papers for greeting cards and other projects |
Printer manufacturers provide compatibility information on their Web sites that will help you match ink, paper, and media to make sure your iron-on transfers work.

Tuesday, 23 Jul 2013 07:14 PM
By Courtney Coren
There is a divide in the tea party movement over Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell re-election efforts, as two national tea party groups have already endorsed the Kentucky senator and local groups push for a potential primary challenger.
The United Kentucky Tea Party group condemned the move of TheTeaParty.net and Tea Party Nation who have already endorsed McConnell, and said that United Kentucky will support Louisville businessman Matthew Bevin, who is expected to announce his candidacy Wednesday, The Wall Street Journal reports.
"We see him a lot in the same vein as Texas Sen. Ted Cruz," said Scott Hofstra, spokesman for the United Kentucky Tea Party. "If he decides to get into the race, we will support him wholeheartedly."
Hofstra issued an open letter signed by 15 local tea party groups to the two national tea party groups chastising them for showing a "lack of research" and "poor judgment" by endorsing McConnell.
"Senator McConnell's progressive liberal voting record, his absolute iron-fist rule of the Republican Party in Kentucky and his willingness to roll over and cede power to President Obama and the liberals in Washington prove that he is no friend to the American people or the citizens of the Commonwealth of Kentucky," the letter said.
Hofstra cited McConnell's support for raising the debt ceiling every time it was increased under President George W. Bush, the TARP financial bailout, free trade agreements, and the 1986 immigration bill. The letter also criticized the Kentucky senator for negotiating a tax bill that froze Bush-era tax rates for those making less than $400,000.
Jesse Benton, McConnell's campaign manager, said that Bevin "is not a Kentucky conservative, he is merely a traveling con man. While it is sad to see someone who claims to be a Republican doing Barack Obama's bidding, his campaign is nothing more than a nuisance."
McConnell "has the Republican base squarely behind him … and remains well positioned to win in November 2014," he added.
McConnell is preparing for what is expected to be a tough fight in the general election against the Democrat candidate Alison Lundergan Grimes.
The Journal notes that in recent months McConnell has had to reach out to the conservative groups that he opposed and who supported Sen. Rand Paul's candidacy in 2010. It is unclear at this point whether Bevin's campaign poses a real threat for McConnell.

iPhone Screentaker updated with iPad templates
Fabian Kreiser has recently updated his screen capturing app for Mac OS X to include support iPad screen captures. Like previous iterations of the app, version 1.2 of iPhone Screentaker allows you to add certain design elements to your iPad screenshots. These include encasing them an iPad and setting the orientation background color. Images can then be saved as either JPG or PNG, with the option to scale to fit iTunes.
One little quirk about the app is the "Capture Screenshot" button. While its existence would seemingly indicate an associated action, in my experience clicking on it didn't do anything. I wasn't able to find anything documenting its function, either.
While you can certainly accomplish a similar end with an image editor, such as Adobe Photoshop or Pixelmator, that may prove too time consuming or difficult for some.
Screen capturing has been a feature on the iPhone since iPhone OS 2.0, and taking a screen capture is as simple as pressing down the sleep and home button at the same time. The feature serves a myriad of purposes, from facilitating the marketing of an app and documentation workflow for developers, and for allowing reviewers, like us here at TUAW, to highlight certain features of an app.
iPhone Screentaker is available as a free download at Fabian Kreiser's site.

Many companies are beginning to realize the benefits of Big Data and are starting to use their customer data more effectively, leading to much better insight on consumer buying patterns/preferences etc. Ultimately, this is allowing companies to increase their cross selling opportunities and build better relationships with their customers. With the advent of Big Data, companies now have an opportunity to harness the power of real-time information and use analytics to interact with their consumers in real time.
Smart companies are realizing that unleashing the power of Big Data insights is the key to staying ahead. And, while it may seem like a daunting task, companies that are making Big Data and analytics a cornerstone to their sales and marketing strategy are undoubtedly ahead of their competition.
The benefits of Big Data should be clear: understanding your customer, improving customer loyalty and gaining competitive advantage. So how do you start? This slideshow features seven tips identified by Frank Palermo, senior vice president - Technical Solutions Group, Virtusa, to help you get started.

I thought I'd take a look at our position players to see how they're doing so far this season. It's…not good. SURPRISE!
But for the analysis I wanted to do, I needed to evaluate which positions are getting contributions and which are liabilities so far this season. To do this, I aggregated each position player's Wins Above Replacement (WAR, primer here) and assigned him a position. Then, for players who play the same position, I lumped them together and added their WAR totals. Some of this took some maneuvering, as most players on this team have played multiple positions. Anyway, here's where the totals came out, and where I assigned each player:
Players |
C | 1.5 | Santana, Giminez, Marson, Redmond |
1B | 0.7 | Branyan, LaPorta |
2B | -0.5 | Donald, Grudzielanek |
3B | 0.1 | Peralta, Nix, Marte, Valbuena |
SS | 0.2 | Cabrera, Hernandez |
LF | 0.8 | Kearns, Duncan, Crowe |
CF | -0.6 | Sizemore, Brantley |
RF | 4.4 | Choo |
DH | 1.1 | Hafner, Brown |
Obviously, Santana contributed most of the value at catcher. In fact, he's the only catcher who had a positive WAR, meaning that his replacements have been exactly that—replacement level, meaning they wouldn't be appreciably better than a AAA guy. Choo is the big name here, which shouldn't surprise anyone: he has contributed well over half of the team's production from a position player standpoint (remember, I'm leaving off the pitchers for this exercise). Centerfield is an obvious shortcoming, but you all know how I feel about our centerfield situation moving forward. Second base isn't so hot either, with Donald and Grudzielanek playing well below replacement level; I will certainly discuss that issue another day.
But today I want to address third base. Here's how that position breaks down:
Name |
Jayson Nix |
0.9 |
Jhonny Peralta |
0.7 |
Andy Marte |
-0.1 |
Luis Valbuena |
-1.4 |
0.1 |
It's not exactly fair to throw Valbuena in this pile, since a good portion of his contributions this season came at second base. In fact, the same goes for both Marte and Nix, since they've moved around the diamond as well. But their WARs shouldn't be too influenced by their time spent at other positions: these guys are all "utility" players, and their utility shouldn't change much as they bounce from position to position.
So what do we see? First, it was definitely time to cut bait with Peralta, in case you didn't know that already. Jhonny posted a 0.7 WAR with the Indians through July, meaning that he was basically a 1.0 WAR player for the entire season. Considering that on the free agent market, teams are paying about $4 million per win, there is no way the team should have picked up his $7 million option for next season. We were wise to get an upside prospect while we could. And despite what some Detroit columnists think, there's no way the Tigers will pick up the option either. Since the trade, Jhonny's batting .236/.310/.438: same old Jhonny. He's just obviously not worth $7 million to anyone.
But Jhonny's old news. Since the trade, the Front Office and Manny Acta have made it clear that some combination of Nix, Marte and Valbuena will man the hot corner, in the hopes that someone stands out and takes the position going into next season.
Judging merely by WAR—a dangerous thing to do, as we'll see—it seems Jayson Nix is obviously the best of the group, posting a higher total than Jhonny in far more limited playing time. Both Marte and Valbuena have played this season at below replacement level, which shouldn't surprise anyone who's watched a game or two.
And it seems that the front office believes in Jayson Nix as well: since the Peralta trade, Nix has started the majority of the games at 3B, with Marte and Valbuena filling in. But is Jayson Nix the answer?
Let's look at the respective careers of this triumvirate:
PA | AVG | OBP | SLG | wOBA | BB% | K% | |
Nix | 594 | 0.221 | 0.299 | 0.386 | 0.304 | 8.8% | 26.2% |
Marte | 870 | 0.216 | 0.276 | 0.353 | 0.274 | 7.4% | 21.0% |
Valbuena | 667 | 0.221 | 0.284 | 0.352 | 0.279 | 7.5% | 23.6% |
This is both shocking and completely expected. The shocking part: they're all basically the exact same hitter. The expected part: they all kinda suck. Let's discuss.
Each of these guys has a bit over one season of everyday at bats. Each has a similar batting average (really bad), similar on-base skills (terrible—all sub-.300), similarly average slugging percentages (though Nix has the highest), and similarly putrid wOBAs (.330 is average!). Each of these guys strikes out at least three times more often than he walks! That is…not good.
If we had to choose which of these guys were the best offensively, though? It would probably be Nix, while holding our collective nose. He has the highest slugging percentage of the group, the highest walk rate, and consequently, the highest wOBA. Don't get me wrong, he's still a far below average hitter, but he's the best offensive player of this little group.
But what about defense? After all, a run scored is as important as a run prevented. Oh man, here we go:
FP | UZR/150 | +/- (per year) | |
Nix | 0.885 | -14.2 | -20 |
Marte | 0.943 | 0.5 | 6 |
Valbuena | 0.917 | NA | N |
All defensive numbers are for third base only
Great. Nix (as I'm sure we expected) is a terrible third baseman. He has an .885 fielding percentage and according to UZR he would cost his team more than 14 runs per year playing third. Baseball-Reference's +/- has Nix costing 20 runs per season compared to an average 3B. However you split it, he's a bad, bad, awful, terrible third baseman.
Marte is certainly better than Nix defensively, but he's no great shakes either. UZR rates him as a completely average 3B, while +/- has him slightly above. Valbuena's sample size at third is too small to make many conclusions, but I think it's fair to say he's not much better than Marte, considering his fielding percentage at third.
So why is Nix's WAR so high this season for the Indians? Well, for one, he's hitting has been better this season than it's ever been in his career. This season, Nix's line is .265/.317/.470 with a .344 wOBA. That's just immeasurably better than what his career line would suggest. Further, he hasn't played enough (bad) third base to affect his WAR total—too much average second base defense is clouding the defensive component.
But make no mistake: these are three very bad baseball players. It speaks volumes about the organization that these guys are our only options left for this season.
Not that I want the Indians to bring up either Jared Goedert or Lonnie Chisenhall to fill this massive void of talent. In my mind, Goedert was probably playing way over his head earlier this year (his recent slump seems to indicate as much) and Lonnie Chisenhall is no where close to ready for the big leagues.
So what do we do for next season? After all, no one in this group is playing remotely well right now.
Paul Cousineau made the suggestion earlier this week that the Indians might be active in the 3B market this off-season, and he stressed the value of defense as we evaluate potential targets. Let me lend my support to that notion. We need to add a third baseman who is, at least, average—which none of our current players are. In fact, if this team goes into the 2011 season without adding a piece to the third baseman pile (Thanks coach Holmgren!), I believe that the signal will be sent, once again, that the front office doesn't believe they can win a completely winnable division.

Grandy Park median real estate price is $139,865, which is less expensive than 78.6% of Virginia neighborhoods and 60.8% of all U.S. neighborhoods.
The average rental price in Grandy Park is currently $1,181, based on NeighborhoodScout's exclusive analysis. The average rental cost in this neighborhood is higher than 62.2% of the neighborhoods in Virginia.
Grandy Park is an urban neighborhood (based on population density) located in Norfolk, Virginia.
Grandy Park real estate is primarily made up of medium sized (three or four bedroom) to small (studio to two bedroom) single-family homes and apartment complexes/high-rise apartments. Most of the residential real estate is occupied by a mixture of owners and renters. Many of the residences in the Grandy Park neighborhood are older, well-established, built between 1940 and 1969. A number of residences were also built before 1940.
Grandy Park has a 16.2% vacancy rate, which is well above average compared to other U.S. neighborhoods (higher than 76.9% of American neighborhoods). This could either signal that there is weak demand for real estate in the neighborhood, or that much of the housing stock is seasonally occupied, which can occur in some markets dominated by colleges or vacation homes. Either way, if you live here year round, you will find many of the homes or apartments are empty for all or a portion of the year.
