Career Aggie Network- FAQ
What is the Career Aggie Network?
The Career Aggie Network has been created at Utah State University through a collaboration of the offices of Alumni Relations and Career Services. By combining efforts, we are better able to assist students and alumni through services such as alumni/student mentoring, resume and interview help, job postings, and a resource library with helpful videos and articles. Although Career Services has been offering some of these services for some time, we have enhanced some programs and want to make all alumni aware of their availability.
I'm a student. How can the Career Aggie Network help me?
The Career Aggie Network can be an invaluable resource for any student desiring to place themselves in a better position to be hired upon graduation. Learn about what life is like in your chosen field by finding an alumni mentor with whom to visit and maybe even serve as a reference for your job applications. Review materials in the resource library to gain valuable insight into interview skills, making the most of your personal network, and more. And then with all your preparations in place, you can review hundreds of job postings to find the right fit for you.
I am an alumnus. How can the Career Aggie Network help me?
Even though you may have left campus and now have a beautiful diploma hanging on your wall, you will still find value in the The Career Aggie Network. If you have reached a point in your career that you want to give back and share your knowledge and experience, it is time for you to mentor a student or even an alumnus who is building their career. By joining the Utah State University Alumni Network group on LinkedIn, you can either find someone to mentor or find someone to mentor you.
Perhaps you find that it is time to return to school for an advanced degree. The Career Services office can help find the best school for you for your field and also help with the application process. Testing Services can help prepare you and administer the required test for admittance.
Alumni may also take advantage of the expertise of USU Career Services to sharpen their resume, improve interview skills, and review job postings. These services are offered to alumni free of charge – a huge savings in your pocket when you need it most.
What are the expectations of the Alumni Mentor/Mentee relationship?
Through the Utah State University Alumni Network LinkedIn group, alumni and students have the opportunity to mentor one another. You can search for alumni within specific companies, industries or locations to begin a mentoring connection online or in person. The Alumni Association expects that students will want to learn from those who have gone before, and alumni will want to share their knowledge and experiences to help the next generation of Aggies. This business relationship can continue as long as both parties would like, but please remain respectful of one another's time. The mentee should never ask their mentor for a job, but simply look for advice and assistance as they create their own career path. Alumni may become mentors to current students or to fellow alumni.
How can I get involved?
Getting involved is easy! Simply join the Utah State University Alumni Network group on LinkedIn and explore what is available and look for future features, content and resources to help develop your career and improve your future. You will find all the useful tools and information to become a mentor, find a job, or work on your personal skills. As always, if you have any questions you may contact the USU Alumni Relations office at email@example.com or call (800) 291-2586.
Aggie Reps -FAQ
Why the change from chapters?
The needs of our alums have changed over the last 15 years. We have learned a lot from the chapter program and have discovered ways to improve and enhance the Alumni Association's ability to service more of our alums throughout the US.
When does the new Aggie Rep program officially start?
It will begin on July 9, 2012.
Does this mean we won't have any chapter events that have previously taken place?
That is correct. With the change from chapters to Aggie Reps, we will no longer be having chapter activities.
What if a past alumni volunteer or chapter board member wants to get involved with Aggie Reps?
We will be continually growing and expanding. Visit here to express your interest in volunteering.
Will we still have chapter scholarships?
The Alumni Association will still offer Alumni Scholarships, based upon a geographic location. Aggie Reps will be asked to serve on a scholarship committee.
Will there still be alumni events?
Yes. The Alumni Association will be hosting various events throughout the year. Information on these events will be available online at www.usu.edu/alumni/events/

19.05.2013 /
RANCHO CORDOVA, California – Red Bull KTM Factory rider Ken Roczen took the win at the opening round of the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship Series in the 250MX class to the applause of a very excited Hangtown Motocross Classic race crowd.
Fresh off the success of his first West 250SX Supercross title two weeks ago, Ken Roczen showed up with great confidence in himself and his KTM 250 SX-F heading into the first moto. When the gate dropped, Roczen was able to earn a 7th place start around the first corner. He used the opening laps to quickly work his way into a podium position. From there, he continued to knock off laps quicker than anyone in the field to immediately move himself into the lead position. Once there, he continued to push forward and was able to stretch to a four second lead before crossing the checkered flag to take his first moto win of the season.
In the second moto he earned a better start and was 2nd as the riders rounded the first corner. He made a pass for the lead on Blake Baggett before the end of the first lap and maintained that position for the remainder of the race. He went on to win the race by 12 seconds over Baggett to take his first career overall 250 motocross class win.
"It feels great to get a win here," remarked Roczen. "I felt confident coming into this race and just knew I needed to get a good start to make it happen. I was able to improve my start in the second moto and hopped into the lead early on. Baggett challenged me for a while but I am glad my conditioning paid off and I was able to get my first overall. I am so thankful to the entire Red Bull KTM team for building me a great bike."
Roczen's teammate, Marvin Musquin, also put together a decent ride at the Hangtown event. It was Musquin who led the first moto early on. He led until the third lap when he allowed his teammate, Roczen, and two others to make a pass. Once in 4th position, he was able to maintain his pace and hold the spot until the checkered flag.
In the second moto Musquin was sitting in 5th place before he suffered a crash a few laps in that dropped him to 9th. In a great charge through the pack he was able to climb back up to 4th place by the moto end. His 4-4 results earned him 4th overall at the first national of the year.

This photo is for Sandi at the Whistlestop. We spotted this tiny restaurant near the railroad tracks.
This is one of many lovely older homes, found in and around Hannibal.
The homes in these photos are located in Louisiana Missouri. There are several blocks of beautiful historic homes. Some needing restoration, others in the process of restoration and many completely restored.
This home was once an antiques shop, we visited now and then. At that time it was painted grey, I believe. I didn't recognize it, with it's new red paint. J knew it immediately.

Now Open to All Residents!
Hello, my name is Timothy Darwin. Let me share a personal story of how I created this unique data-entry job I am going to offer you. I spent most of my career working as a data-entry operating in Silicon Valley. In the late 90's I fell victim to major cuts and downsizing and lost my job of almost 20 years. So I was faced with a decision. Of course the most obvious was to find another job; which wasn't going to happen since there was no one hiring. Or, create something of my own -- that I could do from home while looking for new employment, and most importantly that could supplement my previous six-figure income.
Through my own trials and tribulations, and many sleepless nights, I started doing research on what was available to do online, as well as allowing me to work from home. As you could imagine I came across many scams; many of which you have probably seen yourself, like stuffing envelopes, Multi Level Marketing, high yield investing, and many useless programs that either cost a large amount of money upfront, or cost you a large amount of money on the back end. This wasn't the solution! So, I decided to go back to my roots. What I started to find out is that many of the companies that were laying off people, were still needing help -- now more than ever. The only problem is that these companies didn't have the money to support a large work staff onsite. So I made a few lunch dates with some of the top executives in the HR departments, and noticed the same theme. The companies need help, but can only outsource jobs to keep their costs down.
So this gave me an idea of creating a work-from-home data-entry job program that would allow companies to outsource their jobs, and allow me to create a program that would benefit both the companies, and myself.
So I created a simple outsource job program, I quickly realized this was much bigger than I expected. Soon I was getting more work than I knew what to do with. I then partnered up with a few of my ex-work colleagues; who were also sent packing by the same company who layed me off. We started to brainstorm how we could take this to a new level. We looked at the the current companies that were sending outsourced jobs, and the potential of turning this into a global opportunity with thousands of companies. What was then understood is that a vast amount of companies from all over the world -- big and small, were outsourcing more data-entry jobs then were people to complete the jobs.
I then created a blueprint, and a business infrastructure which has grown from just a few companies, to thousands of companies that are willing to outsourcing data-entry work to people like yourself!
The program I created is Global Data Entry!
My program has personally helped over 30,000 people earn a living working from home, doing a simple job task that anyone can do. I have members of this program making as much as $3000 a day!
I will give you a step-by-step online training program which will show you all you need to do to complete the simple Global-Data-Entry job. I have designed this so you can even start earning income while you are going through the brief training. Included in my program is all the needed resources, tools, and software all at no cost to you. I will also provide free support if needed.
The actual job task associated with Global Data Entry is very simple. You will set up a simple pay administrative account to track your jobs and earnings. You then select a company; from over 40,000 companies I will provide. You are then assigned a pay code link by the company after selection. I will show you exactly how, and where to post the pay code link to get paid.
After you have completed your data submission, watch the money come rolling into your pay administrative account. Many posts can be done in as little as 15 minutes and can generate hundreds of dollars. Just working 60 minutes a day can generate a large income. The Global Data Entry job is simple in design, the more you post, the more you get paid!
I have designed a program that allows my team members to take advantage of this fast-growing job opportunity. You may have come across just a few work-from-home websites that are offering this type of data-entry program. Most of the work-from-home data-entry job websites you will see online are simply expensive ad typing scams that cost you money, and give companies like mine a bad name. In five years you will see companies like mine popping up like Starbucks at every corner. I'm the pioneer of this program, and now is the time to become a member of my team, before it is too late. This is not going to be a fad. This is the look of the new generation of work-from-home jobs. My program has been designed to to perform simple job tasks and too run on autopilot; it is possible to make $300 - $1000 or more per day, working from the comfort of your own home.
The Global Data Entry requires no prior experience, once you are accepted to the program you may begin immediately. I will be provide you with everything you need to get started; including my complete step-by-step system.
With Global Data Entry, all that you must do is type a few short lines of text, and post to the sources I suggest. Once that is complete, hit the enter key, and you are done. Yes, it is that simple!
The more data you type, the more money you can make. With this program I will teach you everything you need to know about how to do these data-entry jobs. After you complete our online training, you will be submitting data in 15 minutes or less.
You submit the data on your own schedule, day or night, and you do as many as you want with absolutely no restrictions. There will always be work for you to do no matter where you live. I will show you many tips to assure your success. I will show you how to sign up with a pay administrative account. This is where your payments for your earnings will be sent from on the 1st and/or 15th of every month.
I will give you access to 40,000 companies dealing in categories including Business, Health, Sports, Culture, Home & Society, Family, Software, IT, e-Commerce, Employment and much more. Many of these companies have downsized so they are anxious to find help like you. Because the companies need your help, they will never charge you money for the job, they are here to pay your for your work efforts, not charge you!
I will even give you the inside scoop on which companies I am using, which are best to deal with, and which pay the highest.
This is a successful money-making program with unlimited potential. I'll show you all the steps you need to make money posting data for companies online. Once your data is submitted, they can be making money for you over and over. So you don't have to be sitting in front of your computer all day just to make money. Spend more time doing what you want to do, on your own schedule. It's completely up to you!
You will be an independent contractor, which means we don't take any money from your pay checks. It will be your responsibility to report your earnings. If you are in the United States, then you will receive a 1099 at the end of the year detailing all of your earnings. Please keep in mind, this opportunity is for serious individuals who are willing to put in the effort. If you are a committed individual and think you can put in a few hours per week submitting these data submissions, I want you on board!
Real Members Earning Real Pay Checks!
As you will see from pay reports I list from my members earnings, this is actually being done on a daily basis. By seeing some of our members' earnings reports, you will see this is a legitimate opportunity!
When it comes to getting paid I have this covered for you as well. The pay administrative accounts will track your earnings in real-time. This means you can login at any time to view how much you have earned for a day, week, month, or year.
The payments will be sent once or twice a month; depending on which of the pay administrative account you use. The payments will be distributed by mailed check, direct deposit, PayPal, and Moneybookers/Skrill; for those countries that can't use PayPal.

Take a look at the below slides to see if you qualify for my program:
Who Qualifies for My Program?

Bet you didn't know... Christina was on The Mickey Mouse Club with *NSYNC's Justin Timberlake and J.C. Chasez, Britney Spears, Ryan Gosling, and Keri Russell.

She's a fighter! Pop megastar Christina Aguilera has always had big dreams and an even bigger voice. Growing up in Pittsburgh, Christina performed "The Star-Spangled Banner" before professional hockey, football, and baseball games, and in 1990 she came in second on Star Search. But instead of earning the respect of her peers, her talent got her bullied. Who's laughing now, punks?
Christina starred on The Mickey Mouse Club from 1993 to 1994, and she signed to RCA Records after recording "Reflection," the theme song for the 1998 animated film Mulan. She released her first album, Christina Aguilera, in 1999, and it had three number-one singles: "Genie in a Bottle," "What a Girl Wants," and "Come on Over Baby (All I Want Is You)." She nabbed the Grammy for Best New Artist later that year.
On the heels of that initial success, she's released five additional albums, including a Spanish-language album, Mi Reflejo, and the hits Stripped and Back to Basics. In 2001, she, Lil' Kim, Mya, and Pink remade Labelle's 1975 single "Lady Marmalade" for Moulin Rouge!, which held at number-one on the charts for five weeks and earned the four ladies a Grammy for Best Pop Collaboration and Vocals. Xtina began cultivating a sexually provocative image in 2002, the same year she released Stripped, but she cleaned things up (a bit) in mid-2004.
All told, she's a big effing deal: She has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, four Grammy Awards, and one Latin Grammy Award. The second top-selling artist of the 2000s (behind Madonna), she's sold 50 million records worldwide.
Christina began dating music marketing executive Jordan Bratman in 2002, and the power couple tied the knot on November 19, 2005, in Napa. She gave birth to their son Max Liron on January 12, 2008, and People paid them a whopping $1.5 million for baby pictures. But it wasn't meant to be: The couple separated on September 11, 2010, and their divorce was finalized on April 15, 2011. Christina quickly moved on to production assistant Matt Rutler, whom she met while filming Burlesque.
Christina is currently a judge and coach on The Voice. She's working on her seventh studio album, slated for release in summer 2012.

I loved it yesterday when a previous editor of the News of the World stated to Steve Hewlett (Guardian ) on the Media Show that the opinion on the press "scandal" expressed by Hewlett, was the BBC Radio 4 AND Guardian viewpoint. Politicians and pundits have been so frightened to state this essential fact for far too long.
Linking the Guardian newspaper, BBC, and Labour / Unions should be a fact known to ALL people worldwide who listen and view the BBC.
Every day we in the UK are subject to left wing propaganda and bias from the BBC, and it has unfortunately permeated into the BBC World Service.
Another interesting issue was that the editor stated there is one very important issue concerning the Leveson Inquiry that is well known to Fleet Street but they are too scared to publish it due to being dragged in front of the Leveson Show Trial.
Who said that Britain has a FREE press?

Thermalright Launches AXP-100 CPU Cooler For Mini-ITX and HTPC Systems
Wed, Dec 05, 2012 - 8:03 AMFinding a CPU Cooler that can cool exceptionally well and fit inside a tiny Mini-ITX or HTPC case can be very tough to do for many system builders. Stock CPU heatsinks and coolers are hot and noisy, while high quality coolers usually either don't fit the case or interferes with your video card, memory modules or chipset cooler. Trying to find the perfect balance of size, thermal performance and noise has been tough for small form factor (SFF) users and that was the driving force behind the Thermalright AXP-100.
This CPU cooler is only 58mm (2.28 inches) in height and that includes the thickness of the included TY-100 high performance PWM fan (100mm). If you wanted to run something larger than a 100mm fan you can as the adjustable Enhanced Fan Mount is capable of mounting 140mm & 120mm fans. The Thermalright AXP-100 is available now and has an MSRP of $59.95.
Thermalright AXP-100 CPU Cooler Specifications:
- Dimension: L121.1 mm x W105.47 mm x H44.15 mm
- Weight: 360g
- Heat pipes: six heat pipes
Thermalright TY-100 Fan Specifications:
- Dimension: L108.25 mm x H101.5 mm x W14 mm
- Rated Speed: 900~2500RPM±15%
- Noise Level: 22~30dBA
- Air Flow: 16.05~44.57CFM

Community Collage
by Art Mysteries Book Club
Summer 2007
This "Community Collage," currently on display at Bennett Martin Public Library, is the culminating project of a summer reading program for 4-6th graders offered through a collaboration with the Lincoln City Libraries, the Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery, and the Haydon Art Center. Nineteen students met over the course of five weeks to discuss four art mysteries and do art-related activities. The students met on 5 July 2007 to discuss the book, Framed by Frank Cottrell Boyce and to work with Lincoln artist Cathy Patterson, who so generously shared her time and materials with the students. Discussing Framed and creating the collage led the students to explore the way art can positively change a community and to experience the vitality of the collaborative process.
Special thanks to:
- Cathy Patterson and Brad Krieger for their inspiring exhibition, "Collaborative Works on Paper" at the Haydon Art Center (July 2007) and their generous donation of collage pieces and the grid for the project
- Lincoln City Libraries
- the volunteers at the Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery and Haydon Art Center
- the students in the book club for being such talented readers, detectives, and artists

Need to stick with Scooter
by Dan Zielinski
posted Apr 17 2015 3:19PM
Only nine games into the baseball season, and Milwaukee Brewer fans are already screaming for changes. With the worst record (2-7) in baseball, and the team continuing right where they left off last season, nothing is going right, especially offensively.
The Brewers lineup is splattered with All-Stars, but through nine games they have managed to score a league worst 23 runs, including only 12 runs in their seven losses.
One player who has received an abundance of criticism is Scooter Gennett. The young second baseman is hitting .200 with one run batted in and a .259 on-base percentage, while tallying a shocking nine strikeouts in 27 at-bats.
His lack of production to begin the season already has fans fretting, wondering if the Brewers should keep him as their starting second baseman.
However, the Brewers have no other legitimate options, giving them no choice but to ride it out with Gennett and hope he hits his way out of this slump.
Over his professional career, Gennett has proven he can produce at the plate, especially at the big league level. In his first two major league seasons he has hit .300 with a .331 on-base percentage, while averaging eight homeruns and 38 RBIs per season.
He also has already shown signs of breaking out of this slump, hitting .300 in 10 at-bats in the Brewers' last three games.
It is probably safe to say that Gennett will never be a star, but he has the talent and skill set to be a solid contributor for the Brewers for years to come.
The journey down the long and winding road that is the baseball season has just begun. With 153 games remaining, Brewer fans need to R-E-L-A-X and give Gennett some time to settle in at the plate before calling for management to make a change at second base.
Should the Brewers stick with Gennett? Feel free to follow Dan Zielinski on Twitter @DanZielinski3 to discuss.

Fantasy Football: Buy High, Sell Low
by Tim Allen
posted Oct 12 2013 8:48PM
Hey Fantasy Football players, we're still considered 'somewhat' early in the 2013 fantasy season. That being said, it's time to, at least, consider a trade or two. If you see your season slipping away, maybe, just maybe, it's time to roll the dice. Put your chips in the middle, and it may turn your season around. The waiver wires are all picked over by the 'vultures', so that's not going to help. The mark of a good trade is not only the players you send and receive, it's 'WHEN' you send and receive them. Here are some players to consider when making your season changing move. Either getting the player on the cheap or sending a player, who later will be worth a value deal:
Buy Low:
Doug Martin and Vincent Jackson
-Both of these players are having sub-par years. However, at some point, you would imagine, the Bucs will get there stuff together. Not to say that they will make a run at the playoffs, but they will start looking like an NFL offense. Heck, SOMEONE has to score for them. You might get a top rated RB in Martin for next to nothing...at least he 'was' rated as a top RB. Additionally, Jackson has had some monster days in a Bucs uniform, it could happen again. Send somebody a flex player for Vincent Jackson, he's probably on someone's bench right now.
Antonio Brown
Get him while you can. Although he has had 1 big game, he still might be a 'sale priced' player. Send someone an offer, they just might bite. Big Ben is still a nice QB, and Brown is a main 'go to' guy. His stock is considered low.
C.J. Spiller
-Health has been an issue for Spiller thus far. If that clears itself up, one of the top ranked RB's to start the season, might just perform as one. His value is quite low, so gamble on him, what have you got to lose? Keep in mind, you'll have to share the carries with Fred Jackson, especially at the goal line, but maybe pick up Jackson at the same time, and handcuff your league. Take a look at the combined numbers in the Bills loss to Cleveland, plenty of fantasy points between the two of them.
Brandon Marshall
-One of the elite WR's coming into the season, he's see his numbers decline in the first few weeks of the season. There is just way too much talent, and Marshall may come cheap in your league. Marshall is one of those players that you'll have to give something to get him, but hopefully the guy that has Marshall is stacked at WR, and you can send him an RB, you might come out ahead, as Marshall's numbers are BOUND to improve...you hope.
Ray Rice
-Especially in a PPR league, Rice can be an improvement to your team down the stretch. Health has affected his season, but as the Ravens improve, so will Rice's numbers. You might be surprised at what it will cost you to get him.
Justin Blackmon
-Here's a player that just might be on the waiver wire. Claim him if you have room, it's a good gamble. He has all the ability in the world, and the Jaguars are continually playing from behind, so the targets will be there. A REAL INEXPENSIVE GAMBLE.
Larry Fitzgerald
-The new offense implemented in Arizona is going to take a few weeks. As the team gets to know it, Fitz's numbers WILL improve. For an elite fantasy WR, he has some lower value. See what it takes to get him.
Tony Gonzalez:
-Remember that Gonzo did not do training camp, so it has taken him a bit longer to get into the rhythm of things. Get to the trade offer section of your league, and bounce something off your opponent. Gonzo WILL improve as the season moves along, and it's just about to happen.
Sell High:
Mike Wallace
-Although the Dolphins are playing well this season, it just does not appear the Wallace can be considered elite. He's a nice splashy name, and that is why you might consider trading him. He certainly has not performed, but star power name alone might get you what you need.
Maurice Jones-Drew
-Jacksonville plays from behind most every week, which takes carries away from MJD. You will have to suffer through an occassional nice game by MJD once you move him, but have no remorse, see if a player in your league still thinks it's MJD from years ago, and pull the trigger.
Phillip Rivers
-If Rivers is one of two QB's on your team, and the other gets the starts, trade Rivers NOW. Don't wait, do not pass go, trade him yesterday. His value is at it's peak, as high as it has been in a few years. Can Rivers continue to put up these type numbers? Probably not. Send your buddy a trade offer, and make sure you send Rivers stats along with it. Your return will be nice.
Antonio Gates
-Can this old guy be worth something? YES, yes he can, and yes he IS worth something. Maybe more than you think. He's ONE injury from being worth virtually nothing, trade him before it happens. His stock is quite nice right now.

Now that the dust has settled for the 2013 Milwaukee Brewers, let's look ahead...it's soooo much better than looking backward. The question is, are the 2014 Brewers a playoff team? You tell me. The talent is certainly there, and with some additions, could be better. Take a look at this every day line-up:
RF Aoki
SS Segura
LF Braun
3B Ramirez
C Lucroy
CF Gomez
2B Gennett
P Lohse
The above line-up 'IS' a playoff batting order, and could be made better by a 1st Base addition. Health obviously is needed, but Brewers fans sure would like to see this line-up on a regular basis. However, the bigger question marks will be with the 2014 starting rotation. As of now, this would be your rotation:
Is this good enough to hit the post season? With a few fingers crossed, a big MAYBE. The Crew would have to have a few things go right, but all in all, you can't say it's a "bad" rotation. Here is where Brewers' GM Doug Melvin has his work cut out for him. He has stepped up in the past and acquired a top of the rotation type pitcher (Greinke and Sabathia). Does he have enough in the minor league system to do it again? A 'front line' starter would certainly put the 2014 crew "over the top" and ticket them to the post season once again. The bullpen will have some turnover, but Jim Henderson, Brandon Kintzler, Tom Gorzelanny have 3 of the 7 spots locked up. The question here is, whether or not Henderson can be counted on to close games in the clutch down the stretch. Melvin has done a nice job over the years with acquiring decent bullpen arms, and there shouldn't be much concern on this front.
Overall, the foundation is there, and Manager Ron Roenicke has his entire coaching staff returning in 2014 which will help. Bottom Line: The crew is NOT as far off as some might think. When you get to Las Vegas over the off season, put down a few bucks on the crew, you will get some good odds, and it might just pay off for you. Smile Milwaukee, The World Will Smile Back!!

Train Wreck Season?
by Tim Allen
posted Aug 27 2013 9:15PM
So we've come to the determination that the Brewers 2013 season was a complete train wreck? Let's not be so quick to make that judgment.
GM Doug Melvin has shown us a few things that may have been thrown into the 'pleasant surprise' category. Khris Davis is one of them. Prorate out Davis' numbers, and it shows some strong potential. Not only with regard to his power, but as of this writing, his batting average as well. Small sample size would be the other side of the argument, but for now, a notch to the good side for Melvin. Scooter Gennett has impressed. The young second baseman was somewhat overmatched the first time up, but now seems to have settled in. Whether or not he is a legit lead-off hitter remains to be seen, but Scooter looks to be a solid major leaguer. The development of Wily Peralta is a work in progress. However, he seems to be durable, taking the ball every 5 games, and learning on the job. A few tweaks here and there and Wily could find himself at the top of the rotation within 1 or 2 years. Jim Henderson has emerged to be quite reliable in the back end of the bullpen. The long time minor leaguer has stepped up and performed well. Will he pitch in the 8th or 9th inning? THAT remains to be seen, but we can agree that he's been successful thus far. The third base position. Juan Francisco shows tremendous power, but lacks in batting average. If the organization can get Francisco to put the ball in play more consistently, Melvin may have pulled off another good to great trade. Additionally, the trade of K Rod for 3B prospect Nick Delmonico might be something to keep your eyes on. Nonetheless, Melvin saw a hole in the line-up at 3B, and addressed it. Ramirez has only 1 year left on a 3 year deal, and Melvin's foresight may be praised within 2 years or so. Finally, the young pitchers in the organization are a work in progress. Johnny Hellweg, who struggled at the big league level, certainly has shown his talents at Triple A. If that converts to the majors, a future tandem of Peralta and Hellweg could prove to be powerful. Jimmy Nelson, Taylor Jungmann, Jed Bradley, Devin Williams, along with Fiers, Estrada, and others has the 'strength in numbers' theme to it. Finally, the position players that Melvin has massed, often times, flies under the radar. Braun and Gomez will both be here for years to come. Lucroy and Segura are mainstays and both may be better than we've seen thus far.
So, complete 'Train Wreck'? Maybe. Maybe NOT. Smile Milwaukee, The World Will Smile Back.

Trade Deadline Analysis
by Tim Allen
posted Aug 3 2013 11:41PM
The 2013 trade deadline came and went, and the Brewers made just one trade. K rod was moved for 3b prospect Nicky Delmonico. A good trade, everyone will agree. However, some will not agree that Brewers GM Doug Melvin didn't make any other trades. Is that such a bad thing? Let's examine.
With another year of Aramis Ramirez, could the crew actually get MORE for him at next year's deadline? Maybe. Weeks value was down, and with the amount of money he makes, the Crew was going to have to pay more than they wanted to move him. He's not such a bad plan heading into next year, especially when he is batting lower in the line-up, expectations are not as high. Nori Aoki is too valuable of a piece to move, as he is under contract (team option) for next year. As like Ramirez, you could move Aoki next year, and potentially get MORE for him. Moving Gallardo or Lohse would take away 2/3 of your rotation heading into next year, instead of doing that, how about adding one more starter, and going into the 2014 campaign with Gallardo, Lohse, Peralta, and that additional signing? The bullpen returns at least 4 successful pitchers in Axford, Henderson, Gorzelanny, and Kintzler. Let's not forget about Figaro, and Marco Extrada when it comes to returning arms.
Analyzing the players returning, a person 'could' make the argument that the team will compete for the division title. I'm one of them...Smile Milwaukee, the World Will Smile Back!

What next for the Crew?
by Tim Allen
posted Jul 12 2013 10:29PM
Now that the 2013 season is well over the halfway mark for the crew, what do they do now? As the days go by, Brewers GM Doug Melvin has a decision to make. Does he stand pat, and go back at the 2014 season with essentially the same line-up, or does he make wholesale changes?
When you break down the contractual situations for key players, he actually could come back with: Lucroy, Ramirez, Segura, Weeks, Braun, Gomez, and Aoki. The hole will be at first base, and he could entertain the idea of Mat Gamel or Taylor Green. This line-up has been and can be very productive.
In terms of the pitching? Yo, Loshe, Peralta, and Estrada could comprise 4 of the starting pitchers in the rotation. The bullpen would have Kintzler, Axford, Henderson, Hand, and Figaro. Would it surprise fans to come back with these players, maybe, but it could happen. On the other hand, the trade potential is certainly there. Buy or sell, could have BIG ramifications for years to come. Let's enjoy this important July. Smile Milwaukee, the World will smile back.

Brewers: If and When
by Tim Allen
posted Jun 19 2013 9:40PM
With the season hanging on by a thread, what will Brewers GM Doug Melvin do 'IF' and when he decides to "sell" toward the trade deadline? Let's take a look at what might be on the Brewers menu when other MLB GM's sit down to dine:
Aramis Ramirez
Cross your fingers on the health of the knee. Ramirez could draw some pretty decent returns, as he still has 1 year left on the existing contract. A team that grabs him, would obviously use him for their playoff push, but will have him for 2014. That being said, they might decide to deal him prior to the deadline next season, and if they don't, Ramirez could return a draft choice for them. But he would have to spend the entire season of 2014 with that club. Many options to obtain Ramirez for that team...but what's it worth? It might be a nice return for the crew.
Corey Hart
This situation is a little more confusing, in that his health is a major concern. Would a team pony up much to get him, considering he has not played to date? The crew may have to gamble, offering him a qualifying offer. If he takes it, the Brewers are 'stuck' with him. If he does not, then compensation rules take effect. If he comes back to play a few weeks prior to the deadline, maybe a team will take a chance, but not likely.
Yovani Gallardo
With Yo under contract for next season, and an option for 2015, this could net the biggest return. If Melvin decides to take the next few seasons to 'rebuild', then does Yo NEED to be here? The return on Yo could be dramatic, and filled with more young rebuilding tools for the crew. There are 10 teams on his 'no trade' list to consider as well. This is maybe, the most interesting trade debate.
Henderson/Axfor/K Rod
Again, 'if' Melvin is in re-build mode, then 2 of these 3 must go. Their value is pretty good right now. considering you pulled Henderson off the "scrap heap" as a veteran minor leaguer, Melvin needs to get something for Henderson, and in a strange justification, would be "free return" for him. The volatility of John Axford the past year may hurt his value, but the numbers certainly lately have increased any prospective trade value. A closer often times, is one of the final pieces of a rebuild plan. A $5 million 7th or 8th inning pitcher may not be worth it. Melvin should get something decent for Ax if the move is made. K Rod, on the other hand, is an interesting situation. He is indeed at the tail end of his career, and the crew should simply get what they can get, as soon as they can.
Michael Gonzalez
A veteran lefty specialist WILL warrant some trade value. What team WOULDN'T want him? His numbers look good, and an AA prospect is NOT out of the question. Potentially a 3rd base minor leaguer would be what I would look for.
Tom Gorzelanny:
A reliever that's having a very good year that is under contract for next season. Probably a guy I would keep, and move him next season, but answer the phone on him. Melvin may get an offer he can't refuse.
Yuni B
Take what you can get, anything, any level of the minors. I doubt there is much value, considering his recent numbers, but we can always hope the crew gets something for him.
Rickie Weeks
Money may have to be involved in an attempt to move Weeks. Melvin, if Weeks is in a specific trade conversation, will have to be included. It's not out of the question to move him for decent young talent, but my guess is that the crew would have to pay some of the salary the next year or so. Would be a dramatic move is Melvin pulls the trigger on such a fan favorite.
Martin Maldonado
There is probably going to be some interest from other teams for Martin. However, with him under team control, I don't think he will be moved. He does have value, but he may have more value for the crew being Lucroy's back up. He's the insurance policy if Luc gets hurt. It would surprise me if he is moved.
Nori Aoki
Value here for sure. There is an option for next season, and it's a decent deal, but Logan Schafer is here, and could take over in right if needed. Melvin needs to ask himself if Nori is part of the future, and if the answer is no, then get a nice young prospect for him. I think he is worth that for sure, despite his age.
Juan Francisco
This could be a player that is a package deal. ONLY if there is a young 3rd Baseman involved. Watching the TV show 'Pickers', they like to "bundle" things together. Francisco would be part of a "bundle" move for Melvin. Young at 25, it's not a bad gamble to hang on to him either, just to see if it "clicks" with him. If it does, Melvin got a steal when he acquired him.
*As you can see above, Brewers GM Doug Melvin has options...and A LOT OF THEM! IF, and I said IF he decides to rebuild, he has the value to do it. If that happens, let's all talk about it. Smile Milwaukee, the world Will Smile Back!!

Snake Bitten?
by Tim Allen
posted May 13 2013 8:54PM
Here we are on May 13, and the crew has just 1 win this month. YES, ONE win in the entire month. The 15-20 mark matches last year's disappointing start. Is the season "snake bitten"? You tell me, I'll spell out the facts, and you make up your own mind. The following bullet points are displayed for inventory purposes, but who's keeping a list? Well...ME!
-I was hit in the head with a foul ball during spring training. Thanks to all who sent little stuffed animals, flowers, thoughts, and concerns.
-GM Doug Melvin was stung by a scorpion during spring training.
-Ron Roenicke fought a pretty bad cold during spring training.
-Ryan Braun's name popped up once again with the Bio Genesis PED story.
-Yovani Gallardo lost his mother during the off-season.
-Corey Hart has knee surgery, and will be out for at least 2 months.
-Mat Gamel is lost for the season with another ACL injury.
-Taylor Green starts the year on the DL, and is later lost for the year.
-Mark Rogers loses all sorts of velocity and command, and here in Mid-May, they are still trying to figure out what is wrong.
-Aramis Ramirez hurts knee during spring training, thus costing him playing time in which he wanted to play more during spring camp to limit his slow start history.
-A legitimate offer to free agent pitcher Ryan Dempster was turned down. Later he signs with Boston for similar offer.
-Roughly 12-13 players missed time during spring training to play in the WBC, including both catchers.
-Jeff Bianchi starts year on DL with hip injury.
-Ramirez is lost to the DL for knee injury, misses roughly a month.
-John Axford struggles, including a blown save on the opening day of the season.
-Ryan Braun misses the second series of the year with a neck strain, and the crew gets swept by Arizona.
-Chris Narveson hits the DL.
-Mike Fiers is sent to Nashville for struggling early.
-Brewers offense sets franchise record for 32 consecutive scoreless innings.
-Manager Ron Roenicke goes to hospital for a back issue.
-Tom Gorzelanny placed on DL with shoulder issues.
-A game 3 rain out in Chicago has the crew bussed back to Milwaukee because they could not line up a plane to get them to St. Louis.
-Alex Gonzalez misses time, twice, for injuries to hamstring, and being hit in the hand.
-Yovani gets arrested for suspected DUI.
-Kyle Loshe dislocated finger while running to first base.
-Jean Segura splits a fingernail during warm-ups, misses a game.
-Yovani loses velocity.
-Ricky Weeks gets off to a horrible start.
-Lucroy struggles offensively to start the year.
-The crew, as of this writing May 13, have won ONLY ONE GAME THIS MONTH!!!
-Starting pitchers, as a whole, is struggling as well in the month of May.
-Attendance has seen a marketable drop in 2013.
***The above list is in no particular order. Please feel free to notify me, on or off the air, if I have missed anything. Bad luck season? Snake bitten? Make up your own mind on this one. I, personally, am hanging in there. There is way too much talent on this team. It's time to overcome all the challenges. As always, Smile Milwaukee, the World Will Smile Back!!

Can you dig it?
by Tim Allen
posted Apr 29 2013 9:18PM
Now that the Brewers first month of the season is over, the "Digging Is Done"! After the 2-8 start, the Crew has dug themselves out of a hole and into a competitive situation. Certainly rattling off 9 victories in a row has helped, but the season has settled in, and the Brewers can move on from here. Starting pitching and the bullpen has stabilized, and now it's time to work on the offense. Injuries to both Corey Hart and Aramis Ramirez have hurt, but couple that with slow starts by Weeks, Lucroy and Braun and you find yourself in an unfavorable position.
Think about the line-up when healthy:
RF Aoki
SS Segura
LF Braun
3B Ramirez
1B Hart
C Lucroy
2B Weeks
CF Gomez
THIS line-up is scary for opposing pitchers. The crew needs to tread water until then, but the offense as is, CAN be better. Looks like a fun and competitive season is about to heat up. Smile Milwaukee, the World Will Smile Back!

I've heard that Pac Bell or AT&T or whatever it's called is the most beautiful of all the parks, even with all the customary fog, and I'm dying to go. So thanks for the tour. Glad you didn't break your finger on that ball!
With all the coke bottles, where are the polar bears?
How was the Napa Valley tour?
What is wrong with the word "********"?? After I submitted my entry I see that it is all asterisked out! Hmm.
Jane – Thanks! No sprained joints or broken bones in my poor little pinky! It is truly a beautiful park – take a weekend trip some time!
Canuck – I forgot about Coke's polar bears! Actually I'm glad they didn't have them. Napa is a lot of fun, and really pretty. Our favorite wineries were Sterling, St. Clement, and Neibaum-Coppola. Yes, it's owned by the movie director, and the grounds are spectacular.
Wh*pping, with an 'o' in the middle. Since when is this a bad word???
I'm with you – when did Wh*pping become a bad word? Mark needs to do something about this overly sensitive filter! And I love San Fran! Have never been to the park but I spent a great long weekend in town!
Thanks for all the great pictures. I've been to the park three or four times (once for a college football Bowl Game…that was strange) and have enjoyed every game. I'm glad you tried the garlic fries; for me, their greatness rivals the baseball in a trip to San Francisco!
I didn't know that it was called Pacific Bell Park before AT&T Park! This stadium is absolutely beautiful. I think I sat in an area really close to where you and your husband sat! I enjoyed the game very much. Great story about getting the tickets too. Why can't they just make things easy?
Julia – well, you'll just have to go back to see the ballpark!
Paige – hard to imagine a football game in that ballpark, though I know there have been some; for a real garlic treat, we had dinner at a restaurant called The Stinking Rose – almost every item features garlic, so much that the smell oozes out your pores the next day!
Elizabeth – the wonders of corporate sponsorship! I liked when they just named stadiums after the owner or some local feature. It is beautiful, I think one of the nicest we've been to.
I am going to have to pick your brain on SF; thinking of going for the Phils series in the summer. Never been to that part of CA before. This is one of the stadiums on my list of one's to see :O) I want to play with the Sea Lions too! :O)
Aaahhhhh…San Francisco…I've only been there once, way back in 1991 (long before Pac Bell Park was built), and I absolutely fell in love with the city. Ride the cable cars? Did that. Visit Alcatraz? Did that. Pig out on chocolate at Ghirardelli Square? Did that. I would love to go back to San Francisco and do all of that again, as well as visit AT&T Park…I've heard it's a beautiful stadium…it certainly looks beautiful on TV. Thanks for the wonderful pictures!
Looooooooove Pac Bell. The joys of naming your park after the phone company…hahaha! The garlic fries are the best. I absolutely love that park! Especially since it's where my love of baseball was renewed in 2004. :)
Jenn – feel free to pick away! Not guaranteeing that there's much there to pick at though! :-)
Shelley – definitely go if you have a chance to get back to SF; TV doesn't do it justice.
Jen – yeah, the perils of corporate naming – they should at least pick a company that isn't going to change names so often! (banks, telecommunications, etc.) So what took place in 2004, hmm? Maybe the subject of a future blog?
Pacific Bell Park (is it AT&T Park now?) is a gorgeous ballpark. I would love to go there. Your other entries are very nice and detailed, with beautiful pictures.

My system gets frozen whenever I try to log out from gnome, restart, shutdown, etc., even when I press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to restart X. Switching to console works, but I can't issue a gdm restart in console either. Seems like the driver is refusing to reinitialize itself.
Anyone has experienced this?
There are a couple of reports of this on the 8.01 thread. For some people, disabling the overlay options seems to make a difference :
Which graphics card are you using ?Option "OpenGLOverlay" "off"
Option "VideoOverlay" "off"
bridgman, it doesn't solve my problem at all. Still freezes my system. What a joke is ATI making at its customers!
What is this NEW code base driver truly for? With this laggy 2d and bugs after bugs and absolutely nothing to do with the word "stable", who's gonna enjoy the "increased" 3d fps???
Hi jason;
Sorry this didn't work. I'll see if we have been able to reproduce the problem in house yet.
The challenge here is that a lot of the worst issues don't show up on any of our in house systems or even in the beta test program, so without driving to your house, finding a clue on the forum threads, or getting a lot of info via Bugzilla we don't have a way to reproduce and fix the bug OR to stop it from happening in the future.
I'm not sure if there is a Bugzilla ticket open for this one, but if not please file one and include hw info, logs & conf. That can really help our chances of configuring a system close enough to yours that we can see the problem and fix it.
We'll go through this more in the Q&A, but the "new code base" is the 3d part and the low level, ASIC-specific bits of the X ("2d") driver. The rest of the X driver is *not* new code, but the dev team is now able to spend a lot more time on the "old code" so we do seem to be picking off more issues every month.
Last edited by bridgman; 01-19-2008 at 06:48 PM.
I suppose you are talking about http://ati.cchtml.com/ , right?
While reporting the "failed to initialize ASIC" issue I am experiencing, I noticed that version 8.452.1 is not in the bugzilla pull-down menus yet - 7.12 is the latest version listed.
The ATI Linux Feedback program is even stuck at version 8.433 (Catalyst 7-11)...
Maybe you could trigger some updating of these tools...?
i have the lockups too, and i'm using a hd2600xt by gigabyte on a p35 motherboard by msi using gutsy.
probably this helps finding the issue.
Hi bridgman, I wasn't aware that you are from AMD/ATI, so forgive me if anything I said sounds improper.
Anyway it's nice to see that someone from inside is taking complaints from customers and trying to resolve problems.
I'd just like to add that for several releases of fglrx right back to the start of the "new style driver" at least, if I stop gdm with "/etc/init.d/gdm stop", the system will very often freeze if I then try to switch to the virtual console on which X was running - hard reset needed. (2.6.18 kernel)
On the other hand generally speaking if I kill X from within it, rather than using the gdm service stop command from the console, the VT gets freed properly and nothing seems to break.
