MLB Reports Top 100 Prospects: A Rebuttal To The MLB.com's Top 100
Like us on Facebook hereFollow @mlbreports
Tuesday February.12, 2013
By Jordan Gluck (Prospects/Baseball Operations Correspondent) Follow @JGluck777
Before I show you my top 100 prospects – I want to get you familiar with my grading tactics and styles and what I value most. All prospects have ceilings and very few players reach that ceiling. First lets go through the tools of what I personally value most and where.
Those are the 5(6) tools that scouts use and the scale goes from 20-80. 80 being HOF rare like Giancarlo Stanton Power and 20 being absolutely terrible like Bengie Molina has 20 speed. Most people reading this will probably have more than 20 speed so that's how pathetic it is.
Jurickson Profar Prospect Highlights:
In the scale graded on the "average Major League Player"
20 is brutal
30 is way below average
40 is below average
50 is average
60 is above average
70 is ALL- Star
80 is Hall Of Fame
As far as the tools I value the bat the most as I believe that is the most important tool to be successful. Power is next because of the current rarity and not only the slugging percentage boost that it provides but it also makes matchups more difficult for the opposing sabermetrics staff. Speed is third because in today's game I feel that it is common where power has really disappeared since the steroid era and it is used on both offense and defense. Defense is becoming more and more recognizable to front offices but I believe defense is something that can be easily improved. The arm is last because it is only important for some positions and is not a major contributor to WAR. Makeup is the big ? And in my rankings good or average makeup won't help you but bad makeup will hurt you.
Pitchers are graded on stuff, control, injury history, injury probability, and defense. I do prefer a bat over an arm because it is less of an injury risk. Number 1 pitchers are really rare as in there are about 10 of them in the WORLD right now – think Justin Verlander. 2 starters are more common and very valuable – think Matt Cain. 3 Starters are common but moderately expensive on the open market – think Jason Hammel. 4 Starters can be easily found and most of the time cheaply – think Ricky Nolasco. 5 Starters are back-end and found cheap – think Jeff Francis. 6 and lower starters are found as swing guys or in the Minors and are inexpensive think – Aaron Cook.
Here is my preference of defensive positions. I believe that hitting is a far and away #1 before defense and you can "hide" some bad gloves.
1. Center Field
2. Shortstop
3. Catcher
4. Second Base
5. Third Base
6. Left field
7. Right field
8. First base
I would take a first baseman with a 7 bat and 6 power with a 4 glove and 35 arm any day over the opposite comparison.
There are certain positions which in my view hold more value than others. First I don't value relievers high they will be lower on my list than on others because of the availability of them. I also have a huge gap in between 3-4 starters because of the ease to acquire 4&5 starters cheaply. I value center fielders and Shortstops with OFFENSIVE abilities most. " Defensive specialists receive a rather low ranking on my list than on others. Left Handed starters have an advantage over Righties – and the more pitches a pitcher has especially a 95mph 4seamer – and a good curve receive big bonuses. A small factor is the club the player is with and their history in developing that type of player for example the Rays with starting pitching and the Royals with bats.
If a player has been suspended for PED use a big fall in my rankings will ensue. If a pitcher has Tommy John for the FIRST time, the rank will fall a little, but not terribly as the recent success of TJ surgery has proven reliability. Shoulder, labrum and rotator cuff injuries to pitchers are killers and their ranking will fall drastically. Concussions won't have that big of an effect as they are much rarer in baseball than most sports. ACL injuries will have a small negative effect but aren't a killer because of the success rate of returning from that injury. Hamstring and oblique strains will most likely have little to no effect in the ranking and any unusual or serious injury may cause the ranking to fluctuate.
Here is what you've been waiting for and the top 100 prospects in baseball!

How is Carlos Martinez from the Cards not on this list? He should be ranked in at least the top 50 of any list….
Yea, I didn't even realize Martinez didn't make this list… And even if you're extremly low on Martinez.. He still has to be higher then Banuelos.
It would be nice to take this list seriously, except… that's not Billy Hamilton.
Mason Williams #13 and Manny Banuelos #100.. come on man, I can't take this list seriously. The yankee's farm system now is like the Met's system was in the 90's. All hype and no performance. Banuelos isn't even going to pitch this year. Mason Williams is 150 pounds. I could step on him like an ant. He's going to be Endy Chavez in the majors.
I'm a met fan so I'm biased but I'd say Wilmer Flores is much more deserving of being #100 then Banuelos but… what about Yordano Ventura, Jarred Cosart, henry owens, Cody Buckel??? Atleast these guys aren't going to spend 2013 rehabing from Tommy John.
And I'd soooo bet Jackie Bradley jr winds up the better major leaguer when compared to Mason Williams. I think Bradley needs to be in the top 50 and Mason Williams right behind him.

I've been hearing SDL 2.0 mentioned ever more frequently of late, it shouldn't be long now.
As for Sam, I've spoken to him on a couple of occasions. He's a great guy and this is a great hook up.
I would like very much. But my English is bad, and from Moscow, I do not want to leave. It's a pity they do not work remotely.
PS I ported the game Vangers http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vangers (with AMDme3 from Yandex company) and develop game Diameter. But write site for RussiaToday Espania now (((( I started learning C++ on the fact that he wanted to make games.
PS2 I participated in creating the site plg.lrn.ru (programming linux game), Frustum (aka Ungine) was a frequent visitor. Almost all of this party could be arranged in the gaming industry (and opensource, deadbeaf player for example ^_^ ).
PS3 Sorry my post is despair.

These news posts should begin with 'previously on "valve's hires" ...'
Anyone else feeling like they're reading a soap-opera?
Don't get me wrong, I like that Michael reports on the latest VOL (Valve On Linux) news/happenigs (if only to silence the remaining nay-sayers). However, what really interests me are some technical details : how will the games be installed? (my wish is : install where I want them, available from all user accounts) Will the client be easily packageable for nerdier distros?
Another question would be : will they be participating in the OSS graphic stack development?

As for other libraries, I'm using Allegro myself (v 5) for my indie game projects, my choice is perhaps influenced by nostalgia as I used to send patches for it back in the day and that it was the first game library I used (allegro + djgpp, those were the days!). There's also SFML which I hear is very nice, particularly if you like C++, and most likely tons of others I've missed.
Play it again, Sam.
I can't wait to see all this become true.

Problem with your car? See what our experts say or submit your own.
Newest reported 1990 Cadillac Fleetwood problems
Engine Overheating Due to Water Pump Leak
The water pump may develop a coolant leak resulting in an engine overheating condition.
Loss of Power Steering Fluid From Steering Gear Failure
The steering gear may fail causing a loss of power steering fluid as a result the steering may become hard to turn.
Performance Issues Due to Faulty ECM Grounds at Front of Engine
The engine control module (ECM) electrical grounds on the front of the engine block may have high resistance causing a rough running engine or stalling condition.
Smog Check Failure Due to Excessive Carbon Buildup
Excessive carbon build up in the engine combustion chambers may be the cause of a smog check failure due to excess NOx emissions. A "top engine" decoarbonization cleaning procedure will commonly correct this concern.
Fuel injectors can short-circuit
The fuel injectors may short out electrically causing a rough idle.
AC compressor may leak and make noise
The AC compressor may develop an abnormal noise or refrigerant leak, requiring replacement.
ABS light due to master cylinder assembly failure
The ABS master cylinder assembly may fail internally causing the ABS light to illuminate.
Alternator failure
The alternator may fail causing the battery to go dead or the engine to stall while driving.
Transmission Fluid Leak From Cooler Line
An automatic transmission fluid leak may develop from the rubber section of a transmission cooler line. In some cases the rubber section of hose can be replaced. In others, the complete cooler line must be replaced to correct this type of leak.
Car Won't Start and Security Light is On
Problems with anti-theft systems using the raised-chip key can prevent the car from starting. The wires in the steering column to the ignition lock cylinder tend to break. The key and ignition lock cylinder should be replaced to correct this condition.
High Pressure Power Steering Hose Can Leak Fluid
The high pressure power steering hose will commonly leak fluid; it should be replaced.
Poor Ride/Handling Due to Worn Suspension Struts
The front struts may show signs of wear, or be excessively bouncy ride at freeway speeds. This may begin to occur at around 75,000 miles.
The Fuel Pump May Fail Causing the Engine to Stall or Crank Over But Not Start
The fuel pump can fail causing the engine to stall and not restart. Our technicians highly recommend to replace your fuel filter every 30,000 miles to help prevent undue strain on the fuel pump.
Power Window Not Working Due to Window Motor
A door window may move slowly or stop in mid travel due to a failing power window motor. The affected window may start working again after the motor cools off. Replacing the faulty window motor will commonly correct this concern.

This route is virtually unsurpassed, not only in terms of architectural sights, but also as regards hospitality. Visitors can take in period costume performances at festivals in authentic surroundings, visit medieval markets and secluded castle courtyards, go on ghost tours, dine at medieval banquets or sample historical recipes within ancient castle walls. Sports enthusiasts will be pleased to know that this route – a bubbling wellspring of fairy tales, sagas, myths and legends with its many castles and palaces – is a designated cycle trail.

How to Select
How to select Ceiling Heaters
A ceiling heater may be the perfect device to install in many different types of locations, starting with an office and ending with a bedroom. Thanks to its heating technology that uses both convective and radiant heat, such devices distribute warm air faster and more efficient than any other forms of heating. In addition to that, ceiling fans allow covering large areas, such as industrial halls, shopping and sport centers as well as residential buildings.
The first thing to consider when selecting a ceiling heater is its sizing or, in other words, the area you want to heat with it. To calculate the wattage of such device, you need to multiply the square area of the room by 10 or 12, which is the number of watts required to heat 1 square foot. The number you will receive will be the wattage of the ceiling fan you are looking for. To be sure you select the device with suitable capacity, always average such number up.
The next factor to consider is the ceiling heater location. You should install these devices on the interior wall that is furthest from couches, sofas or drapes. In addition to that, ensure that the location of the heater is close to the outside wall, that way the room will heat faster.
Noise level. This factor becomes important when you are planning to install a ceiling fan in areas where people sleep. The quieter operation you need the higher quality the internal parts of such device should be and the more money that will cost you. If you can live without such feature you will be able to save additional money.
Thermostat and control location. It is always great to have a ceiling or any other type of heater that can be controlled from remote locations of your home. In addition to that, equipping such device with digital thermostat allows programming its operation depending on your needs. When selecting a ceiling heater, look for a device that already has such controls or is compatible with the thermostat of your choice.
Mounting option is the last but certainly not least important factor of a ceiling heater. A heater with surface mounting option provides you with more freedom and allows you to save money on reparation work. However if you are currently repairing your house and can afford to cut a hole in the wall, select a device with recessed mounting option. To install a ceiling fan according to all of the industry's safety requirements, better hire a certified technician. That way you'll be sure your heater is save and ready to be used.

Allen & Ton are shocked at the dollar amounts changing hands at this boat auction. Auctions routinely open at $100k. Will they be able to make a deal?
In order to sell their giant crossbow, the guys head out to meet up with Captain Tim and Wench Martha on their real life pirate ship.
After the guys find a tactical barrier in one of their storage units, they take it to an expert to try and make a sale. There's only one catch: it has to be completely bulletproof. Ton is happy to test it out.
In a city that prides itself on parades and pageantry, the guys find a buyer for their party projectile system.
Allen & Ton head to a local watering hole in an attempt to learn about their music machine and make a deal.
Allen & Ton get to work unpacking a unit they bought in the Big Easy. One particular object, which Allen thought was an accordion, turns out to be so much more.
A new adversary appears at an auction that seems to have an endless supply of cash. When a unit rife with antiques comes on the block, will the guys be able to outbid the competition?

Hi: 12° Lo:7°

THE BATTLE of Edgehill now has its own dedicated website.
The first battle of the English Civil War saw the 12,500-strong Parliamentarian army, led by Lord Essex, come face to face with King Charles I and his Royalists army of 13,500 men, on a glorious sunny autumn afternoon on Sunday October 23, 1642.
Not only was it the first pitched battle of the English Civil War, it was also the longest, spanning three days, although the the actual result was somewhat inconclusive with both sides finally going their own way - but not before leaving an estimated 1,000 dead, and nearly 3,000 injured.
Despite no clear outcome, the severity of the fighting and the length of the battle sent a clear message to the country it was to be war in earnest.
Edgehill battlefield is the largest battlefield on the English Heritage Battlefields Register, stretching from the escarpment of Edgehill and sweeping down some 2.5 miles to Kineton.
The battlefield is also reputedly the most haunted in Europe, with people having claimed to have seen ghost armies reenacting the battle in the days after, to people today who say they have heard drums being beaten on the anniversary of the battle.
The not-for-profit website - www.battleofedgehill.org - was edited and researched by local historian and professional Warwick web designer Darren Harridence, who has worked on projects relating to the battlefield since 1994.
For the first time visitors can clearly view the battlefield - which suffers from limited access as much of it is on Military of Defence-owned land - using satellite imagery accompanied by photographs from within army base where some of the most fierce fighting took place.
There is also a wealth of information concerning what happened where, and what can be seen today.
The website includes the routes of public footpaths and official permitted routes across and around the battlefield, showing points of interest and even lets web visitors survey the scene using Google's Street View.
Visitors to the website can measure distances with the site's inbuilt tools as well as overlay historic mapping and aerial photography to understand how the battlefield appeared during the time.
Users can also show or hide various suggestions for how and where the armies deployed and read details relating to individual brigades and regiments.
And most significantly, the website also presents the radically new battlefield interpretation based largely on
relatively unknown archaeological evidence recovered during a systematic survey of the entire battlefield between 2004 and 2007.
Local traditions, folklore and myths are also explored, as well as first hand accounts by the battle's combatants.

Just wild about HarryUNH students honor wizard with special dinner
Tuesday, February 12, 2013
Last Wednesday night, the University of New Hampshire magically became another institution of learning, and magic is the right word, for UNH became Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
The genesis of the idea came from a student who had a friend at a Boston College who mentioned that they had done something similar on a small scale. "I thought if they could do something like that we can do it better, so I suggested it to the Dining Council, we talked about it and it just grew!" said senior Samantha Cunic.
It grew to a Facebook contest where students could submit ideas for what they would do to win an opportunity to sit at the VIP table and be served. Suggested Senior Paul Chiarantonia of Scarborough, Maine: "I would drink Polyjuice Potion and take the form of Snooki Polizzi for rest of my life."
It grew to where members of the dining staff wore costumes representing Bellatrix LaStrange, Professor Severus Snake, Rita Skeeter and Dolores Umbridge among others. "We have done themed evenings before, but nothing of this magnitude," said Director of Dining John Plodzik, "Harry is an icon."
Kristin Lonsinger, marketing coordinator, said "I was not very familiar with the Potter history, so I took a crash course in it. A lot of the students coming in tonight are very passionate about Harry."
As Professor McGonagall was using the sorting hat to place students in their houses, asking " Are you prepared to come to Hogwarts?" Will Flanagan of Laconia commented on his Harry Potter experiences."I am a big Harry fan," said the junior physics major. "Every summer I read all seven of the books. Every kid wants to get their letter in the mail, telling them that they are a wizard. Hope springs eternal that they can be a wizard." With a smile, Flanagan said "I definitely am still waiting for my letter."
Courtney Mills, a senior agreed. "I grew up with Harry from the third grade through high school," said the anthropology major from Billerica, Mass. "He is a part of us." When asked her feelings when she finished Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the last in the series she responded "it was like a death in the family," to which friend Flanagan injected, "Worse!"
Janelle McCosh, who aspires to Broadway said "we started rehearsing when we came back to school, and put in two very hard weeks of work." The vivacious McCosh made most of the costumes as well as performing.
Rebecca Lower, an upcoming junior, mentioned the importance to her of being a Harry Potter fan. "It allowed me and an opportunity to put myself in a different place, and made me feel that a different, magical life can exist."
The magic will not belong only to Rebecca's generation however. TJ Birkle and Sonia Barth are students in Mrs. Jones' second-grade class at Lee's Mast Way School. What are the seven year olds reading in class? — Harry Potter, of course.

I think it won"t be a bad change for the workers. Farmers will save money from this.

I think that this is good that the farmers can use robotics because it will keep the farmers costs down and will keep our prices down when we buy milk in the store.

Prof. Hankell's curator insight, March 16, 10:40 AM
Marissa Mayer became the youngest woman to become the CEO of a Fortune 500 company - and at around the same time, she announced that she was pregnant, thereby causing a stir in the media. Mayer was a mom-to-be, a CEO, a social ideal, and the most talked about woman of her time, all at once...
Zohair Ahmed's curator insight, March 17, 1:33 PM
Okanagan Specialty Fruits' Arctic apple had been modified to be more time resistant, giving the apples more shelf life, and also making then bruise resistant. This un-natural cause is RNA silencing. While this may seem as a good product, it may be potentially poisonous to animals and humans! This GMO was approved by the USDA, letting down many people that were against the product. This article also suggests to buying fruits that have been grown out of the U.S., where the fruits are most likely untampered with. GMO's are a big part of why commercial agriculture has started to gain more and more problems, people are not sure what the GMO;s side effects are, and want to avoid them, where commercial agriculture has gotten very very used to these genetically modified crops. GMO's are a heavily weighted and important topic in Unit 5.
James Barnett's curator insight, March 23, 6:36 PM
Industrial accidents interest me as I am always intrigued as to how much truth comes out in the aftermath. The disaster at Fukushima is the worlds worst nuclear accident in recent times. Whilst the incident was triggered by an unforeseen natural disaster, the slow release and contradictory information given by the Tokyo Electric and Power Co as well as the Japanese government, attracted criticism, made both parties seem negligent and at fault.

|Daily OCD 1/7/13
|Written by Jen Vaughn | Filed under Shimura Takako, Ron Regé Jr, Richard Sala, Pat Thomas, Moto Hagio, Love and Rockets, Lilli Carré, Josh Simmons, Joost Swarte, Johnny Ryan, Joe Kubert, Joe Daly, Jim Woodring, Jason, James Romberger, Jaime Hernandez, Jacques Tardi, Inio Asano, Hal Foster, Gilbert Hernandez, Gary Panter, David Wojnarowicz, Daily OCD, Crockett Johnson, Chris Wright, Basil Wolverton
|7 Jan 2013 3:54 PM
The sweetest tea of Online Commentaries & Diversions:
• Review: The Atlantic writes on The Heart of Thomas by Moto Hagio. Noah Berlatsky looks at it from every angle, "The boys' love genre, then, freed Hagio and her audience to cross and recross boundaries of identity, sexuality, and gender…Bodies and character flicker in and out, a sequence of surfaces, tied together less by narrative than by the heightened emotions of melodrama—jealousy, anger, trauma, desire, friendship, and love in the heart of Thomas."
• Plug: David Brothers and Comics Alliance posts a preview of The Heart of Thomas plus a few thoughts on Moto Hagio that works outside of his comfort zone. "What there is, though, is drama. No -- it has melodrama…the sheer level of theatrical drama in this book is enough to keep a skeptic hooked…Heart of Thomas is a trip, and a good one. I wasn't expecting to enjoy it as much as I did, and it was nice to enjoy something outside of my usual comfort zones."
• Plug: Johanna Carlson of Comics Worth Reading is ready for the world to read The Heart of Thomas by Moto Hagio. "This solid hardcover contains the entire classic shojo series, and it's a must-read for anyone interested in the development of the genre. It's also surprisingly gripping in its own right…"
• Plug: Brigid Alverson starts the year off right with The Heart of Thomas by Moto Hagio on MTV Geek.
• Review: Chris Mautner interviews Jim Woodring's Problematic on Robot 6. "Problematic is both a stroll through Woodring's unique imagination and an opportunity to see his working process" and Woodring thinks "having a pocket sketchbook on me at all times means fleeting impressions and ideas that might otherwise be lost are captured…Everything I draw is reality-based."
• Plug: BoingBoing is ready for Jim Woodring's Problematic to come out. "There are many reasons to be grateful to be alive, and owning this brand new facsimile edition of artist Jim Woodring's Moleskine sketchbooks is as good as any," says Mark Frauenfelder.
• Interview/Review: Publishers Weekly looks at 7 Miles a Second, and Grace Bello interviews artists James Romberger and Marguerite Van Cook on writer David Wojnarowicz, the gay activist who wrote the comic before dying of AIDS-related complications. Romberger is quoted, "It really is so much about what David was about, channeling his anger into a statement…" "The gay experience is not only 'less invisible'—it's on prime time TV. But the feral energy and raw hunger in 7 Miles a Second still resonate" states Bello.
• Review: Jason Sacks of Comics Bulletin presents 20 Facts and Opinions on Joe Kubert's Weird Horrors & Daring Adventures, edited by Bill Schelly. "Schelly and the always sterling Fantagraphics production team do a nice job of preserving the look and feel of these comics…the master cartoonist was equally at home doing broad humor as intense action/adventure as well as lighter, Archie-style teen humor."
• Review: Comics Alliance and Caleb Goellner continues their Best of 2012 series with Prison Pit Book 4 by Johnny Ryan. "It was like looking at a baby book of bad ideas from boyhood as an adult who'd learned to function in polite society…it's bliss to kick back and watch humankind's most immature impulses play out in the safety of Ryan's Prison Pit."
• Review: The Weekly Crisis lists its Top 10 books of 2012 and Johnny Ryan's Prison Pit Book 4 lands at #2. Taylor Pithers states "he is interested in is fighting and hyper violence, which to be fair, would be more acceptable to the masses if it was drawn by Ivan Reis or another one of Geoff Johns' collaborators…Honestly, there isn't a comic that has given me more belly laughs in my entire life."
• Review: Comiks Debris posts its Best of 2012 books and Johnny Ryan's Prison Pit Book 4 comes in as #8. Marc-Oliver Frisch writes "structurally, Prison Pit reminds me a lot of Jarmusch's The Limits of Control… The artwork looks ugly, crude and perfunctory. The characters eat, shit, fuck and, most of all, fight their way through the book…It's one mean, sick motherfucker of a comic, and I can't wait what happens next."
• Plug: Tucker Stone on The Comics Journal rates his top comics of 2012. Prison Pit Book 4 by Johnny Ryan comes in at 18. "…it's hard to explain how intense the surprise was for a follower of Angry Youth and Ryan's humiliation comics to open that first Prison Pit…"
• Review: Delphine by Richard Sala gets reviewed on Comic Book Resources. Kelly Thompson claims, "One part comic book and one part fever dream…Rare is the opportunity that I'm so engaged I consider yelling at an inanimate object such as a book…Delphine is also a nice contrast to the unrelentingly bright and happy fairy tales that are so often seen when it comes to modern reinterpretations of those early dark tales."
• Review: The New York Journal of Books thumbs through Spacehawk by Basil Wolverton. "Basil Wolverton rises to the occasion and gives the reader a detailed and hilarious look at megalomania while throwing in some fantastic aerial fight scenes…Fantagraphics Publishing brings Wolverton's art to the reader in as detailed and perfect a form as possible. Each wave of space, every geometric shape and all the incredibly ugly aliens look better than they ever have in their entire lives," writes Mark Squirek.
• Review: Crave Online looks at Spacehawk by Basil Wolverton. "This is the medium when there were no rules, no event series and no giant corporations standing watch over what the creators were doing. If you love the Golden Age, science fiction and adventure, nothing compares to the world Basil Wolverton put together for Spacehawk," writes Iann Robinson.
• Review: The Weekly Crisis lists its Top 10 books of 2012 and Josh Simmon's The Furry Trap ranks as #1. Taylor Pithers writes, "The Furry Trap is pure exploitation; violent, disgusting, and bound to make you feel uncomfortable but it also does what the best fiction is meant to, it stays with you long after you have put the book down…Simmons is a cartoonist of the highest caliber. This is not a book for the faint hearted, but if you can stomach it will be a true experience."
• Review: NPR and Glen Weldon write on Books of 2012 they haven't told you about. Heads or Tails by Lilli Carré "The whole collection has the feel of a dream in which remembering how to fly is as simple as forgetting that you can't."
• Review: Noel Murray and The A.V. Club write about the Top 10 Fiction books of 2012. Heads or Tails comes in at #7. "Lilli Carré's stories are like dreamy what-ifs that take the familiar and tweak it."
• Plug: Whitney Matheson of USA Today's Popcandy mentions her favorite things including Heads or Tails by Lilli Carré: "…a lovely volume from one of my favorite cartoonists that includes several beautifully strange short stories. I'm a longtime fan and even have a framed Carre print hanging in the baby's room."
• Plug: Chris Mautner of Comic Book Resources lists his Best reprint/reissue series of 2012 with many Fantagraphics titles: Spacehawk by Basil Wolverton as #1. "I had more fun reading this than just about anything else this year." #2 was Dal Tokyo by Gary Panter, # 3 was Is That All There Is? by Joost Swarte. #5 was Heads or Tails by Lilli Carré. The Furry Trap by Josh Simmons made the list at #10.
• Interview: The Comics Journal interviews Ron Regé, Jr. on The Cartoon Utopia, evolving comics and more. Regé on his book, "People should use bibilomancy—randomly opening to a page—to access the information if they'd like. Nothing in the book tells you to treat it that way, but I think people will get the idea anyway."
• Review: Comics Bulletin and Jason Sacks investigate Blacklung. "Chris Wright seems to channel Melville or Conrad in this book as he explores the uniquely idiosyncratic world that he creates…nobody has ever created characters that look like the characters in this book, with their strange faces and lumpy, malformed bodies…This slim graphic novel is a dense read unlike anything else you've read in comics."
• Review: Noel Murray and The A.V. Club write about the Top 10 Fiction books of 2012. Athos in America is #5. "Jason's blank-faced animal-headed characters reveal unexpectedly deep passion via deadpan tales of dislocation."
• Review: NPR and Glen Weldon write on Books of 2012 they haven't told you about like Wandering Son by Takako Shimura. "Wandering Son is not the kind of manga in which a happy ending is guaranteed… You'll thus be grateful for the moments of realistic, untempered joy Shimura allows her two protagonists here, as you wait with nervous anticipations for the travails that lie ahead for them…"
• Review: Manga Bookshelf recounts its Favorite Manga Series of 2012 including Wandering Son by Takako Shimura. "This series about two transgender children in modern-day Japan has been a favorite since it debuted last year thanks to its delicate, truthful storytelling and understated artwork…Its most recent volume (three) goes a bit darker and deeper, only heightening my interest in the series" says Melinda Beasi.
• Review: Noel Murray and The A.V. Club write about the Top 5 Archival books of 2012. Harvey Kurtzman's Corpse on the Imjin! landed at #1. "Kurtzman book is especially stunning, almost like a coffee-table art-book combined with a literary collection…an anthology with a strong individual perspective that tries to tell the truth about what war is like from the point of view of the people on both sides of the battlefield."
• Review: Noel Murray and The A.V. Club write about the Top 5 Archival books of 2012. Ernie Bushmiller's Nancy Is Happy: Complete Dailies 1946-48: "bristle-headed Nancy and poor slob Sluggo inadvertently irritate the grown-ups in their lives, in scenarios that Bushmiller illustrated with absurd visual gags—so basic that anyone, anywhere, at any time, could get the joke."
• Review: Nick Gazin of VICE has a pretty fuckin' fancy (his words) edition of The Clouds Above by Jordan Crane. "Jordan Crane is a cartoonist with supreme abilities. He's great at making lines, hand text, and backgrounds and stuff…This is beautifully colored also. Did I mention Jordan Crane's great color sense? His colors are good."
• Review: Steve Donaghue enjoys Prince Valiant Vol. 1 by Hal Foster on Open Letters Monthly. "The ambition becomes most emphatic the more you scrutinize the work. Foster often said he put in between 50 and 60 hours a week on creating the strip, and it shows in these magnificent reproductions, done in a sturdy hardcover with oversized pages and entirely restored colors and shadings."
• Plug: Record Collector magazine (UK) picks Listen, Whitey! by Pat Thomas as one of the top 12 books of 2012. "A socio-polictal account of American racial struggles...an extraordinary study of the way the message of [the Black Panther] movement was recounted and defined on vinyl. "In-depth" doesn't begin to describe it."
• Plug: Tucker Stone on The Comics Journal rates his top comics of 2012. Dungeon Quest 3 by Joe Daly makes the mark at 17. "in times like these, with sandwiches like mine, you have to root for the one who brung you, and that's dick jokes. Dungeon Quest had so many of them, and they were all wonderful."
• Plug: Johanna Carlson of Comics Worth Reading notes the softcover edition of Castle Waiting Vol. 1 by Linda Medley. "The original hardcover was one of my best of 2006; it's a gorgeous twist on fairy tales, concentrating on daily life instead of big events, which makes it charming."
• Commentary: Tom Spurgeon lists his top 50 positives about comics right now mentioning Fantagraphics several times. Lilli Carré's Heads or Tails was a hit, the flowering of Gary Groth, Kim Thompson's polyglotism, Mike Catron and Preston White Return to Fangraphics, Generation 3 (Jacq and me, Jen, pictured!), and of course, Love and Rockets 30th Anniversary.
• Plug: Everyone is excited about Nijigahara Holograph by Inio Asano. All Fiction, Anime News Network, and more.
• Plug: Bleeding Cool reports on Jacques Tardi turning down an award from the French government, The Legion D'Honneur. Punk as shit.
• Plug: Barnaby love over at Forbidden Planet International.

November 8-10, 2013
The Susan G. Komen Arizona 3-Day opened on November 8, 2013 with beautiful clear skies in Crossroads Park in Gilbert. After community stretching and Zumba, the crew watched as breast cancer survivors and flag bearers led the walkers past the cheering Gilbert Fire Department and onto the streets of the city. The 19.1-mile route passed by the children from Bright Beginnings Charter School, who sung inspirational and choral renditions of pop music in front of their school to the delight of the walkers. The Chandler Fire Department supported the walkers, encouraging participants at multiple locations. The entire route from Gilbert to Chandler, and into Tempe, was dotted with great pop-up cheering stations, and the walkers had significant support from a strong contingent of walker stalkers. The participants finished the day as the cheerleaders and band from Desert Foothills High School welcomed them into camp. After dinner and some relaxation in the Bank of America massage chairs, walkers and crew enjoyed a camp show which included local entertainers, the Sun City Palms. Bonny Dolinsek gave a touching survivor speech, and walkers and crew slept comfortably in great weather in Benedict Park.
The 20-mile route of Day 2 started in clear weather with some community stretching before the walkers took to the streets of Tempe and quickly moved into the neighborhoods of Phoenix. Many cheering stations along the early route encouraged the walkers by handing out water, juice, and treats. A New Balance-sponsored cheerleading group welcomed the walkers into pit stop 2. A public cheering station included posters made by elementary cchool students from Kryene de las Lomas. The walkers enjoyed a large number of walker stalkers and homes that opened up their lawns for cheering, helping walkers with the increasing temperatures of the day. Pit Stop 3 was livened up by neighbors who set up a complete drum set across the street. A second high school cheerleading group welcomed the walkers back to camp for dinner. There was great entertainment from a college-age a cappella group "Priority Male" and a camp show which included a recap of the day, a speech by Chrystine Holcomb, co-survivor, and a speech by Justine Perez, a young survivor. After an energetic dance party, the walkers and crew then returned to their pink tents to enjoy a night's sleep under the Arizona stars.
The final day of the Arizona 3-Day included a 16-mile route with gorgeous sunny weather. The walkers passed through downtown Tempe, Moeur and Indian Bend Parks, and into Scottsdale. The Emerald Society Bagpipes were a fun way to start the day as they marched with the walkers and set up after pit stop 2. A local group of five young saxophonists, one of whom was the son of a breast cancer survivor, serenaded the participants as they passed into historic Scottsdale. An inspiring cheering station kept the walkers going as they finished the last few miles of their journey. A beautiful Closing Ceremony in Scottsdale Stadium, capped off the perfect weekend. Walkers and crew paraded around the perimeter of the baseball field before celebrating the end of another Arizona 3-Day, complete with the raising of the flag, "We Will Never Give Up" by the Survivors' Circle.

Steve Garban, who was the chairman of the Penn State University Board of Trustees during the Jerry Sandusky scandal, has resigned, the Centre Daily Times reported on Thursday.
A report issued by former FBI Director Louis Freeh was critical of the trustees' secrecy and their deference to university leaders in allowing the crisis to continue and cause more harm.
According to the Freeh report, Garban was informed by then-university president Graham Spanier in April 2011 of the Sandusky investigation, but failed to notify the other trustees.
In October 2011, Garban was informed by Spanier that athletic director Tim Curley and vice president Gary Schultz were about to be indicted. Garban told two trustees -- John Surma and Jim Broadhurst - about that information, but did not tell any of the other trustees, according to the report.
Karen Peetz replaced Garban as chairman in January, but he remained one of the 32 trustees.
ESPN had reported earlier that many of the trustees were angry at Garban for leaving them out of the loop.
"A lot of this mess could have been avoided if Garban had just told everyone else," a trustee told ESPN's "Outside the Lines." "Most of us didn't know what was going on. If we had a week's heads-up, we could have gone to (Paterno) and tried to sort this out. We were blindsided."
Two trustees had told ESPN that trustees had asked Garban to resign last Friday.

As some of the older folks in the forum will remember roof racks were very popular back in the 60's,70's and 80's when all of a sudden they seemed to just disappear off car roof tops ....why was this ??
Mainly because of the top heavy safety issues and the other reason was ''ECONOMY''.....Your fuel consumption will rocket.
Now,,,what a 'hypocrite'...ha,,,as we have been considering getting one on the roof if we change from the campervan to a caravan as we will need more storage not being able to tow the trailer.
The roof box to me is not an option....very pricey and room restrictive....plus,,,,I reakon they look like a coffin on the roof.

(CNN) — He's not saying yes. He's not saying no.
Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas danced around questions in a recent interview about whether he plans to run for president in 2016.
The first-term Republican senator has been peppered with such questions because his summer travel schedule reads like an itinerary for a potential presidential candidate: Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Florida - four early-voting states in the primary and caucus calendar - are all on the list.
Asked in a recent interview with ABC's Jonathan Karl if he's running for president, Cruz answered: "We are having a national debate about which direction the country should go."
"And what I am doing now is trying to participate in that national debate," he added. "I understand that everyone likes to focus on the politics."
In the interview that aired Sunday, Karl pressed further on whether Cruz is ready to run for president.
"You know, I'm not focused on the politics," Cruz replied.
"Is it fair to say you're not?" Karl asked.
"I've been in the Senate all of seven months. The last office I was elected to was student council. So this has been a bit of a whirlwind," Cruz said.
Cruz press secretary Catherine Frazier has explained the trips in the past by saying, "We've been receiving an overwhelming amount of requests to speak."
"The senator is willing and excited go anywhere where people want to listen to his vision and message for restoring our nation's economic growth," she said.
Cruz's eligibility for president, however, has come into question, given that he was born in Canada to a father from Cuba and a mother born in the United States. Cruz addressed the question in the ABC interview.
"My mother was born in Wilmington, Delaware. She is a U.S. citizen. So I am a U.S. citizen by birth," he said.
During his appearance in Iowa on Friday, he was again asked by reporters if he was running for president. After Cruz gave a 160-word answer, Karl reported, the journalists followed up: "Was that a no or a yes?"

I have been trainer of trainers and supervisor of health technicians, teachers and students, and I designed and developed various modules for health technicians, teacher and community workers on primary health care and nutrition.
Through my experience I have learned to combine technical and managerial skills, gaining a sense of organization, which has taught me to handle complex workloads in stressful situations. I have good communication skills and I enjoy working with people, creating a team with a shared vision, to achieve the objective proposed by the organization. I love what I do and because of that, I work with responsibility, enthusiasm and conviction. My outstanding strength is my natural ability to motivate and encourage my collaborators to discover and develop their capacities so they that can take advantage of all their personal and professional skills. My social sensitivity and my continuous desire to share my knowledge and experience and help people to develop, makes me a natural mentor.

SETI Institute Projects and Programs (Listed Chronologically)
Thursday, November 06 2014 - 9:28 am, PST
We propose a feasibility study for a small spaceborne mid-Infrared telescope/spectrometer designed to detect and characterize the delivery and survival of extraterrestrial organic matter to the atmosphere (and hence to the Earth). This instrument would detect the dilute levels of organics present in the upper atmosphere by using astronomical mid-infrared light sources along a viewing path that grazes the Earth atmosphere at an altitude of 80 to 100 km (where meteoritic debris is known to accumulate). This would provide a very long path length and allow, for the first time, the detection and characterization of the material that meteors are delivering by the detection of the mid-IR absorbances in the molecular bands. This would provide the first measurement of the amounts of delivery and the types of compounds being delivered and allow characterization of the amounts/types of prebiotic molecules that would become available for the origin of life. It would also provide a better understanding of the organics being formed in solar nebula.
Lipids and the Origin and Evolution of Life
Thursday, November 06 2014 - 9:26 am, PST
This work will support experiments designed to better understand the how lipids relate to the origin of life. It looks at events leading up to the origin of life (prebiotic chemistry) and at the subsequent evolution of life after the last common ancestor, LUCA (and hence, at how one might extrapolate back from current life toward the LUCA). This coop will include work on the formation of amphiphilic vesicles and the role they may have played in supporting and containing chemistry and the origin of life. It also includes studying the use of lipids in microorganisms and how such usage evolved and how that information can be linked to the study of biogeochemical analysis of samples containing lipids as biosignatures.
Understanding laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) on Mars - New approaches for quantitative elemental analysis and mineral classification
Thursday, November 06 2014 - 9:21 am, PST
We propose to study advanced spectral processing methodologies for the extraction of mineralogical information from complex geological materials, and to investigate the atmospheric-mineral matrix coupling effects under Martian environmental conditions. For this, we will make use of Washington University in St. Louis unique laboratory facilities which will allow us perform high-resolution multispectral analysis of standard samples and mixtures representative of Martian mineralogy.
Science Processing Support for the Extended Kepler Mission
Thursday, November 06 2014 - 9:19 am, PST
In December 2001, Kepler became the 10th mission selected for flight by NASA's Discovery Program, and the first such oriented to achieve goals under NASA's Origins theme. The Kepler Mission seeks to determine the prevalence of Earth-size and larger planets orbiting solar-like stars in the solar neighborhood, and to characterize the stellar properties favoring the development of planetary systems. It achieves this goal through transit photometry by monitoring ~156,000 main-sequence stars continuously and simultaneously for at least 3 1/2 years, to detect signatures of transiting planets in the flux time series of their host stars. In April 2012, the NASA Astrophysics Senior Review recommended extending Kepler for an additional 4 years of science operations, through September 2016. This proposal seeks to support the operation and evolution of the science pipeline to support Kepler's Extended Mission

Observations of the Pluto System During the New Horizons Encounter Epoch
Observations and Dynamics of Ring-Moon Systems
Thursday, November 06 2014 - 9:13 am, PST
The Cassini data sets have provided remarkable new insights about the processes at work among the rings and small moons of Saturn. Guided by these discoveries, we will seek out and investigate related phenomena in the ring-moon systems orbiting Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. We will employ data from Voyager, Cassini and New Horizons, complemented by the best publicly available data from HST and from the W. M. Keck Telescope. We will apply new and powerful image analysis techniques that should enable us to obtain significant new results from old data.
Precision Pointing Reconstruction and Backplanes in Support of Cassini Remote Sensing Science
Thursday, November 06 2014 - 9:11 am, PST
The objective of this proposal is to generate several higher-order data products that will substantially reduce the level of effort required to analyze Cassini's optical remote sensing data sets (ISS, VIMS, CIRS and UVIS), by eliminating the need for most scientists to perform their own navigation and geometric reconstruction.
Initial Analysis of Pluto's Tiniest Moon
Thursday, November 06 2014 - 9:08 am, PST
This is an unsolicited proposal to perform the initial scientific analysis of Pluto's tiniest moons, the recently-discovered "P4" (S/2011 (134340) 1; Showalter et al. 2011) and "P5" (S/2012 (134340) 1; Showalter et al. 2012b). It will enable the P.I. to determine the bodies' orbits, shapes and sizes based on all of the available Hubble data, using established measurement and modeling techniques. The results of this analysis will be published promptly and will be presented at a scientific workshop about the Pluto system in July 2013.

Orbital Evolution and Stability of the Inner Uranian Moons
CIRS Investigations of Planetary Rings
Thursday, November 06 2014 - 9:04 am, PST
This is a new, five-year proposal to support the work of CIRS co-investigator Dr. Mark Showalter on behalf of the Cassini Project. It is a successor to our current cooperative agreement, NNX06AC85A. The predecessor agreement has supported the Cassini-related activities of Dr. Showalter and his SETI Institute colleagues Dr. Stu Pilorz, Robert French and, briefly, Dr. Nicolas Altobelli. This report provides a brief summary of our accomplishments during the previous agreement and outlines our plans for the years ahead. The Cassini Mission is now expected to continue into 2017, so this proposal describes our planned work for most of the remainder of the Cassini tour. Our activities encompass conducting fundamental scientific research with the CIRS data, plus meeting a large and continuing set of responsibilities for mission operations and planning.

These details were essential though they look like trivia. You think, "What nonsense is this? A Gautam Buddha should talk about spirituality, about growth and awareness and freedom and he is talking about these small matters." But he had to for the simple reason because he accepted the idea of renouncing the world. Once people renounce the world they are bound to become burdens.and on poor societies.
So when Buddha says that one who gives his bathhouse to be used by a monk earns great virtue, he is simply trying to persuade people that they should not think of it as a burden, but as a blessing.
When a monk accepts the food you offer he is not obliged to you, Buddha says. You are obliged to him. Just his receiving your food, on your part gives great virtue. Perhaps you have given your own food, perhaps you have given your children's food, but you have sacrificed something and you have respected a man who has no possessions, no money.
Buddha has said that the mother is blessed who gives birth to a child who is going to renounce the world. The father is blessed who has a child who is going to renounce the world. They are renouncing the world just to develop their potential to its ultimate. Help them. If you cannot raise your consciousness, at least you can help in some small way those who are making the tremendous effort of raising their consciousness to its ultimate illumination.
Hence, whether it is trivia or not, it would have been perfectly good if Bodhidharma had accepted the sutra as it was. And what I have said, he should have said. But he himself is feeling embarrassed, so he starts trying again, saying it is a metaphor for something invisible, and that makes his whole approach fallacious. I will read the sutra and then I will read his fictitious explanations. The sutra is absolutely clear; it needs no clarification.
But the Bathhouse Sutra says, "By contributing to the bathing of monks, people receive limitless blessings." This would appear to be an instance of external practice achieving merit. How does this relate to beholding the mind?
The disciple is asking Bodhidharma: You say beholding the mind is enough, but Buddha is talking about such small things. In your beholding the mind is there any place for such things?
The simple answer would have been: I am talking about the essential and Buddha is talking about both the essential and the nonessential. He is taking care not only of what the monk has to do. The monk has to behold his mind; that is his only essential practice - awareness, vipassana, watching, witnessing. But also, the poor monk needs food; he needs some shelter in rain, he needs some clothes.
Buddha has a very comprehensive view. It was not just a question of a single monk but when millions of people were becoming monks, then certain rules had to be made; otherwise it would have created chaos in the whole society.

How to Select
How to select a thermostat
Installing a thermostat in your house helps you control the energy usage of all electric devices and also save money spent on electricity bills. When selecting a thermostat, you should consider many factors and characteristics that will help you create a more comfortable environment in your home.
The first thing you need to consider when selecting a thermostat is the type of your heating or cooling system. The most common types of heating systems operate on natural gas, oil or electricity. You need to make sure the thermostat that you are about to purchase is compatible with the system and the devices installed in your home.
The types of thermostats that exist today can be categorized according to the operation method they provide. Here are the most common types:
- Manual or mechanical thermostats. These are the oldest thermostats that exist. This type is perfect for people who are always present at home and can adjust the temperature of the device whenever they need or want. If you are leaving home frequently, you might want to select a different type of thermostat that will control the system when you are not around.
- Learning thermostats. These are the modern types of programmable thermostats that can learn and adjust their operation mode as you use them. What it means is that you do not have to actually program them, since they will select a perfect operating mode after a few manual adjustments. Learning thermostats can do such things as turn the devices off when you leave the house and turn them back on when you come back, adjust the operation to a more energy efficient mode and even provide you with monthly energy reports.
- Remote energy management thermostats. Such a type allows you to program, adjust and monitor your thermostats via a smartphone or computer. This is really helpful if you want to always know what is going on with the heating or cooling system of your house. In addition to that, you can select a special energy efficient operating mode for the entire heating system of your house by clicking a few buttons.
- Programmable thermostats. This thermostat type can be programmed to automatically adjust the desired temperature during different time of the day. For example, you might want your room to be warmer at night and cooler by noon and this is exactly what a programmable thermostat will do for you.
- Non-programmable thermostat. This type of thermostats provides manual operation and differs from the manual devices only by a display that shows the exact temperature in the room. That way, the information that appears on a display lets you know what adjustments to make.
When you know what thermostat type you want, selecting a perfect option for your home only takes minutes.
