Facebook adds app adverts as users switch to mobile
- 8 August 2012
- From the section Technology
Facebook is to allow app developers to advertise their products on its members' mobile-device news feeds.
The network will charge a fee for every time users click on the ads to download the software from elsewhere.
Facebook had previously warned its financial health would suffer if it could not find ways to make money out its mobile users.
Its shares have nearly halved in price since its flotation, costing investors a total of about $50bn (£31bn).
Details of the latest move were revealed on the site's developers blog.
It invites software developers to sign up to a "beta" test in which they can decide whether to target users of Apple's iOS App Store or Android's Google Play store.
A "power editor" option can also allow users to be targeted on the basis of what other apps they have downloaded within Facebook.
For example if they have played Disney's Gardens of Times on their laptop via the network, they might then be offered other hidden-object games when using Facebook's smartphone app.
If a user clicks on one of the links, they will be redirected to the appropriate app store where they can purchase the software.
Facebook will charge advertisers for every click made, and allows them to set a maximum budget.
Switch to mobile
The move is Facebook's latest effort to make money from its mobile users.
It said it had 543 million active members using the site via a mobile phone or tablet at the end of June.
It has previously experimented with a number of other formats, including paid-for "Pages You May Like".
It also introduced Sponsored Stories to its mobile app earlier in the year.
These are posts created by an advertiser that appear if a "friend" or page the user is connected to shares the material. By paying a fee, the business or organisation can increase the likelihood their posts will be seen.
The site's founder, Mark Zuckerberg, said it was making about $500,000 worth of sales through mobile Sponsored Stories every day at the end of June.
"People who use our mobile services are more active Facebook users than people who only use our desktop services," Mr Zuckerberg said, explaining why it was important for his firm to focus on the sector.
"On average, mobile users are around 20% more likely to use Facebook on any given day."
Flat payment revenues
The firm's chief financial officer, David Ebersman, added that daily web views in some developed markets had started to decline in favour of mobile use.
He said this could be why it was experiencing "flat" payment revenues - cash raised by taking a cut of fees charged on its site.
Although Facebook does allow users to download and play games on its mobile apps, most have ignored the option and download third-party titles via Apple or Google's stores, even if they first heard about the software via Facebook.
"In the past 30 days, we have sent people to the Apple App Store and Google Play 146 million times, via clicks from channels such as news feed, timeline, bookmarks and App Center," Facebook said in its developers blog.
'Execution challenges'
One analyst said it was inevitable that Facebook would adapt its mobile service.
"If the majority of use is on mobile then there needs to be ads there," Enders' Analysis's Benedict Evans told the BBC.
"I would expect Facebook to experiment and see what users' feedback is.
"Clearly there are a lot of execution challenges as Facebook may have a lot of less space to play with on a mobile device than it has on a desktop, and people may feel the adverts intrude on their experience.
"But Facebook is an ad-funded business, therefore there needs to be ads on mobile."

by Mr. CaluluThe journey started out innocently enough when a friend invited our family to attend his church in 1995. I had met him working at a part time job a few years earlier and just liked the guy. We had a number of other things in common, his kids were about the same age as ours, so I figured why not?? Our family didn't have much of a connection to the local Presbyterian church we had been attending anyway.In many ways it was a typical country church; a bit conservative for my taste, but not so much so to be ruled out. I found it to be an interesting mixture of college educated and technical types, along with some high school dropouts :-). But what struck me as a pleasant … [Read more...]

Cult of Personality – Adventures in Recovery
by CaluluA few weeks ago I took my daughter out for an celebratory lunch at her favorite Greek restaurant. She's gotten acceptance letters from all of the colleges she's applied to plus we really needed to touch base, take a time out together from the busy of our lives. Over sovlaki and hummus she started talking about what she would say to our former pastor Patrick if she ran into him again. She had run into him an few months ago and had been so surprised she'd just hurriedly muttered out pleasantries before leaving him as rapidly as a man with his pants on fire would run for the lawn sprinklers.I had to ask her what she would say to Patrick if they were face to face. She blurted … [Read more...]

The "Obey" imperative demeans both bride and groom. Any man who chooses to marry a woman willing obey means he has a wife and their children dependent on him.
If he wants her to stay home with the kids and can afford to earn the necessary amount to maintain a household, then the mother may choose to stay home. If it is an imperative, the relationship suffers.
If she wishes to stay home with the children, then that meets both partners' needs.

I hope your ok Joan.
In response to you request to some of the inane remarks coming from Christians to simple questions like, " How are you." Suddenly, you are maddened that you even asked. I've certainly heard, "God bless you" and II reply "May Odin give you many strong children." I must admit that I've never heard, "Let go and let god." I guess that's like "let Jesus take the wheel," which I just want to be forewarned when that happens so I can pull to the side and let them pass. Again, it is the same with, "God will lead you," I would certainly ask where? The last time I let some one lead me I ended up in a dark alley with a gun in my ribs (not actual, just making a point) I have my own to add to you list which irks be to regurgitation. Try this one. In response to a simple "How are you doing?" I got this, "I blessed and highly favored." I was in a strip club which I used to frequent. I said nothing, but what I was thinking that for being blessed and highly favored she seemed to be in an occupation that suggested otherwise.
"It's god's plan."

Looking for a Star Fleet
I hate making these sort of posts, as it always feels like I'm applying for a job rather than a group of people to play a game with, but anyway....
I'm a fairly new player and I'm still finding my feet in the game, as well as trying to make my mind up if I should stick around. And with that in mind I feel I will require a Fleet in order to experience everything this game has to offer, as well as make some friends along the way.
So a bit about me (short version):
I'm male (don't let the names fool you), I'm 27, I have a full time job and I live in the UK.
I currently have a Lt Cmd 4 Tactical Officer and an Escort ship.
And what I'm looking for is a PVE orientated Fleet with any kind of voice communication, website and forums, plays mostly in EU time zones, has some experienced members for advice and most importantly a good sense of humor.
I should also note that I'm not keen on RP'ing, but I don't mind people who do so long as I'm not expected to participate.
If anyone is interested in guiding this newbie through this cold dark space, please contact me in game via Kara@Asteria or leave a reply here.
Thank you.

"We fought poverty, violence and blight, and we made the Southside a better place to live. We are now strangers in our own neighborhood, and it's painful."
These words from longtime Brooklyn resident and community leader Evelyn Cruz at a forum about gentrification in Williamsburg have stuck with me for years. I thought of them as we created Naturally Occurring Cultural Districts New York (NOCD-NY), a citywide alliance of artists, cultural organizations, and community leaders coming together to revitalize New York City from the neighborhood up. And I'm thinking about them now as I write this blog about cultural districts and communities as catalysts of change. How can we make sure that our work does not make people strangers in their own neighborhoods? Read the rest of this entry »

Originally written on SteelerAddicts | Last updated 11/12/14
Special teams is the middle child of the football world. No, that's not right. It's the red-headed step-child. No one shows special teams any respect, and yet when a game is on the line, it is often the kicker who is relied upon to come up with the game-winning field goal. It is often the punter who is put in a position to pin the opponent deep in their own territory, shifting the field position battle. The good news is most of the story with special teams can be told with raw numbers. This is one time when the stats can tell the bulk of the story. Punting The Steelers were in the middle of the pack with 4.9 punt attempts per game. The downside is that they were 26th in the NFL with a pitiable 38.1 net yards per successful punt. That's not great. So, while they weren't punting as often as Houston or Super Bowl Champion Baltimore, they were punting more often than Miami and Carolina. And the only teams that had worse yardage per punt were Tampa Bay, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Buffalo, ...

Two Worlds II
- Platforms: PC, PS3, X360
- Developer: Reality Pump
- Publisher: South Peak
- Genre: RPG
- VN:F [1.9.22_1171]User Score: 0 votes
- Add to MyGames
A trip to the swamps will demonstrate the breathtaking experience that Two Worlds II has to offer. The result of Reality Pump's extensive technical development, the game's environment has been painstakingly created to fully immerse the player into the Antaloorian universe. For example, the marshy ground sucks at the character's feet hindering his movement more so then if he was on dry land. Additionally, dynamic sounds have been constructed to further demonstrate the game's attention to detail. When the hero steps into the marshy ground, he will hear a terrifyingly disgusting squishing noise that will make the player cringe with delight.
Luckily, there are many wooden paths and stakes placed throughout the swamp, which will allow the player to traverse the treacherous terrain with more ease. However, whether you can use the comfortable paths and bridges without paying a toll depends on the disposition of the local residents – and you better believe that "Have a good day!" does not pass their lips on a regular basis. But let's face it…would you be bubblin' over with joy if you had to wake up every day to drizzling rain and tendril of swamp mist?

A MisconceptionA common belief is that if the horse of a statue has both front legs in the air, the rider died in battle, one front leg up means wounded in battle or died later from his wounds, and if all four hooves are on the ground, the rider died of causes other than combat.
There is little evidence to support this belief.
deleted 26-30 1 Response 1 Nov 19, 2010
Interesting. Many beliefs seem to take off, ba<x>sed on little or no evidence. These days, they tend to get scooped up on to sites like Wikepedia, which gives them unjustified credibility.

If you are single, but would rather not be, I am sure you have given significant thought about why. I know what you're thinking: Why is it that you don't have a man yet certain people around you seem to hop (sometimes effortlessly) from one relationship to another? Well, one answer is it may not be your season. For many, it is as simple as that.

David Price believes a hideaway camp in Germany will lead him to title glory next weekend. The 6ft 8in heavyweight is now winding down preparations ahead of his vacant British and Commonwealth title clash against Sam Sexton (15-2) at Aintree racecourse on May 19. Price, 28, recently returned from two weeks in Berlin where he sparred´with Bulgarian Kubrat Pulev who lifted the European crown last weekend..
And the Olympic bronze medallist says it would be a close run thing between him and Pulev who beat Alexander Dimitrenko to win his title.
Price (12-0) said: "We sparred a lot in the amateurs. Before the 2008 Olympics we did a lot of sparring and he would get on top of me so I wanted to go back and see where I was now. It was a good gauge.
"We did five spars in all and each one was different and one day I would get the better of him and the next he would have it more his own way."The camp in the German capital also helped ease the pressure ahead of the biggest night of his professional career.
Price added: "I needed to get away because there are a few distractions at home in the city. A lot more people want me to be here, there and everywhere.
"It is nice to know you are in demand, but training is the most important thing so I had to get away and focus.
"Just a few different things were getting in the way of my preparations. It has done me the world of good. There was nothing there apart from the hotel and the gym so there was plenty of time to focus.
In the chief support Ashley Theophane (31-4-1) defends his British light-welterweight crown against local Steve Williams (12-1).
A special attraction sees classy Leeds boxer Adil Anwar (16-1) tackle Lenny Daws (23-2-2) in a vacant English title and eliminator for Theophanes crown.
Other fights include: John Donnelly (13-2) v Mike Robinson (5-4-3) (English super-flyweight title), Paul Edwards (9-1) v Kevin Satchel (7-0) vacant English flyweight title, Bob Ajisafe (9-2) v Travis Dickinson (12-0) English light-heavyweight crown.

New York, NY (5/10/12) - On Thursday, June 14, DiBella Entertainment's Broadway Boxing series returns to New York City's famed Roseland Ballroom for its third installment of 2012. Headlining the card will be world-rated welterweight contender Thomas Dulorme (14-0, 11KO's), who is widely considered as one of the most promising young boxers in all of boxing, as well as Long Island's fan-favorite undefeated light heavyweight prospect, "Irish" Seanie Monaghan (13-0, 8KO's).
Broadway Boxing kicked off the 2012 season with an action-packed, sold out card at Roseland on January 21. DBE followed that up with another completely sold out event on March 7 at B.B. King Blues Club and now returns for what promises to be another thrilling night of boxing with the undercard featuring some of the most exciting and popular fighters throughout the New York area.
Dulorme, 14-0, 11KOs, is of Dominican descent but he has spent the large majority of his life as a resident of Puerto Rico. The 22-year-old NABF Welterweight Champion is part of Team Puerto Rico, a group of fighters promoted by DiBella Entertainment, Gary Shaw Productions, Universal Promotions and Warriors Boxing. Already rated as the WBC #3 and WBA #4 welterweight in the world, Dulorme is coming a first-round annihilation of Aris Ambriz, 16-2-1, 8KOs, on February 17, which was the main event on ShoBox: The New Generation, shown live on SHOWTIME®. Boxing insiders have been raving about Dulorme's ability for some time now, and the blue-chip prospect continues to inch closer to his first world title opportunity in the very near future.
Every time that Long Beach, New York's Seanie Monaghan, 13-0, 8KOs, steps into the ring, his army of fans continues to grow. Monaghan, who last fought on the undercard of Sergio Martinez' middleweight title defense against Matthew Macklin at Madison Square Garden on St. Patrick's Day, has become a staple fighting on the undercard of almost every recent major card that has come to New York due to his action-packed, fan friendly style. Now, on June 14, Monaghan will have the opportunity to headline what could be the first of many more shows to come in the future for the dynamic light heavyweight prospect.
Additional bouts will be announced shortly.
Tickets are priced at $125, $85, $65 and $45, with a limited number of VIP tables available for purchase as well. VIP Tickets are priced at $150, and there are four seats to a table. Tickets can be purchased by calling DiBella Entertainment at (212) 947-2577. Call soon as tickets are already going fast and a third consecutive sellout for the Broadway Boxing series is expected.
Diaz to meet Sanchez at Battle at the Boat 87!
Tacoma, WA (May 10, 2012) Junior lightweight prospect Joel Diaz will look to take another step in the right direction when he battles Guillermo Sanchez Saturday, June 2 in the main event of Battle at the Boat 87.
The card is promoted by Halquist Productions and takes place at the Emerald Queen Casino in Tacoma, WA. Tickets start at $25 and are available at all Ticketmaster outlets or by visiting the EQC box office.
The hard-hitting Diaz is a perfect 9-0 with 8 KOs as a professional and is one of the top young talents on the west coast. On January 20, 2012, Diaz stopped previously unbeaten Guy Robb in seven rounds on ShoBox: The New Generation. In his most recent bout, the 20-year-old Palmdale, CA native battered veteran Yogli Herrera, forcing him to quit on his stool after four rounds.
Rough, tough and battle tested, Sanchez resume speaks for itself. The Puerto Rican shared the squared circle with world champion Adrien Broner, contender Edner Cherry and undefeated prospects Mark Davis and Ronny Rios. Dubbed as The Vampire, Sanchez, 13-6-1 (5 KOs), twice won bouts in the backyard of previously unbeaten opponents, outpointing Rod Salka and Eddie Irizarry.
Diaz-Sanchez is scheduled for ten rounds.
Retired Marine and crowd favorite Nate Serrano, 4-1 (1 KO), of Yakima, WA will look to win his second straight bout when he challenges Portland, ORs Osvaldo Rojas in a six round welterweight contest. Serranos fresh off a dramatic second round stoppage of Nicholas Balestra while Rojas, 6-2-1 (2 KOs), makes his first start since 2010.
Also appearing on the undercard is Canadian sensation Sarah Pucek against an opponent to be named. Other undercard bouts will be announced shortly.
Doors open at 6 pm and the opening bell is scheduled for 7.
During the last 23 years, Halquist Productions built a reputation in the boxing world for their loyalty, honesty and integrity. In 1997, Halquist Productions ran their inaugural Battle at the Boat series, which remains successful to this day. Halquist Productions promoted many world title bouts and their fight cards have been seen on ESPN, HBO and Showtime.

McPherson answered: Doris, The short answer: No. Based on your question, I'm assuming you're under age 59 and-a-half, and that's why you're asking about paying a penalty on your retirement funds. If you're uncomfortable with your investment portfolio, you can lower the risk level in your portfolio without incurring an early withdrawal penalty.
If the money is in an IRA, you can easily invest all or a portion of your portfolio in lower-risk options like bonds or cash. In an employer-sponsored plan like a 401(k) or 403(b), your investment options are dictated by your employer. But most employer-sponsored plans include bond and cash options.
Above all else, I would avoid a withdrawal that incurs taxes and penalty. A hasty, premature withdrawal from a retirement plan can easily cost you 40 percent or more in taxes and penalties depending upon your tax bracket and the state in which you live.
Edra, from Fort Wayne, Ind., asked: "The 401K has lost over $30,000 -- my husband is 55, I am 57. Should we keep contributing or should we pull out the remaining money and put into a savings or money market account or CD? Seems like the contributions are just disappearing. Any recommendation would be appreciated."
McPherson answered: Edra, as I told Doris above, I would avoid making an early withdrawal that would trigger taxes and penalties. You should be able to shift to more conservative investment options within the 401(k) plan if you think that's best and still avoid a 40 percent-plus hit like I mentioned above.
On the question of whether you should keep contributing, the answer is absolutely. If you stop contributing now and then resume later after the market has recovered, then you're just buying mutual fund shares at a higher price than what's available now.
Remember, buy low, sell high. And right now, stock and mutual fund prices are the lowest they've been in a while.
So I understand the desire to maybe shift to more conservative investments, but stopping your contributions would absolutely be the wrong move. In fact, one way to recover from the current market is by stepping up contributions so you can buy even more of these cheaply priced shares.
Erika asked: "I am a 54-year-old, I had $100,000 in my 401(k) and now have $50,000 left. Would it be in my best interest to pay off my mortgage of $50,000 and then take that monthly $500.00 and start a new 401(k)?"
McPherson answered: Erika, I would not suggest using your 401(k) funds to pay off your mortgage. The primary reason is that at your age, you would incur a 10 percent early withdrawal penalty plus ordinary income taxes on the amount withdrawn. As I mentioned to others above, you could lose 40 percent or more of your remaining balance to taxes and penalties. That means after setting aside money for those, you would not have enough money left to pay off the mortgage.
If you have other funds available in a taxable account that could be used to pay off the mortgage, that might be something to consider. You would want to look at the interest rate you're paying on your mortgage and the number of years left on the mortgage.
If you're deep into the term of your mortgage, chances are most of your mortgage payment is going toward paying down the principal rather than interest payments. That would be another reason not to pay off the mortgage all at once.

- Do I need a new base before installing ceramic tile?
Do I need a new base before installing ceramic tile?
I want to install ceramic tile and a friend told me I can install it directly on the vinyl. Under the vinyl is a 3/8" wood backer, and 2 or 3 additional layers of vinyl totaling almost an 1". Does this make sense or do I need a new backer for the ceramic?
the best possible way is to tear out all the layers down to your plywood subfloor,and then nail and glue a cement type backerboard. use thin set to stick the the tile to the backerboard. the 3/8 underlayment (if you live on the west coast) is particle board ,if this gets wet(dishwasher leak,refer leak) it could swellup and take your new tile floor with it. i have seen lots of jobs that have a backerboard down on top of all the old floors,with out a problem. however no way would i install directly on the vinyl. one other thing if you add a layer of backerboard, adhesive and tile to the existing floor its going to get pretty thick. good luck
Thanks carpetman, I think I'd be best in removing down to the subbase so I don't have to redo it in 2 months.
Another question. If I rip everything down to the subbase and put say 1/2" plywood and then a cementboard/hardibacker layer, do I just glue down the cementboard/hardibacker layer with liquid nails or can it be screwed down as well?
pull up everything down to the subfloor.check how thick your subfloor is,it needs to be about 3/4" plywood or better. if it's less than 3/4" add another of plywood to bring it up. now add your backerboard,glued and screwed.you can use thinset or ceramic tile mastic to glue down the board,(use thin set on the tile) use coated backerboard screws.any brand of backerboard will do,but i like 1/4" hardiboard best. good luck
Is it possible to only remove the 1st layer of lenoleum with the luan exposed and lay the backerboard directly onto this or will the glue from the backerboard soak into the luan and cause it to deform? If I can do this it would save me a lot of trouble because I already set my cabinets over the other layers of lenoleum and would not have to cut around them to get it out. What type of compound would work best to attach the backerboard to the luan? Thanks again.
i still think it best to get down to your subfloor,use your saw to get close to the cabinets,then score the vinyl with a utility knife at the cabinet line,use your crow bar to snap everything at the cabinet line ,then clean up the edge with a chisel.
ceramic tile mastic will not change the luan,but you need to screw or nail the backerboard also. good luck
ceramic tile mastic will not change the luan,but you need to screw or nail the backerboard also. good luck
I have a related problem:
Thanks, I obviously need qualified help.
I just had my handyman put a new subfoor in my bathroom. 3/4" plywood and then the cement board. I'm putting in a heated floor element and probably ceramic tile.
The problem is when I step on an area the is a "creak" as if the floor is moving or the plywood is sliding against a nail or something. Although I don't really feel it move.
I don't recall him using any adhesive between the plywood and backer board. Now what should I do?
My handyman seems to think it will be stable once the electric heat element is set in a layer of "cement" and then the tile.
Thanks, I obviously need qualified help.
if the floor is squeeking,the problem may be, not enough screws ( it takes one screw,every 6 inches,every direction)if your situation is backerboard on top of plywood,then run some extra coated screws tru both in to the sub floor. good luck

Sounds of the game… Bruins 5, Lightning 3
|12.09.08 at 7:32 am ET
You know you're a good hockey team when your coach says, "We're getting used to wins, and that's nice. But we're at the stage now where we're really looking at how we're winning hockey games." Claude Julien didn't have to say anything to his team following its 5-3 dispatching of the woebegone Tampa Bay Lightning at the Garden. He left them to think about how a 3-0 first period lead turned into a nail-biter in the final minute of regulation. All of which leads to this, when you are a good team you learn from your wins just as much as your losses and that was the case last night. The Bruins are still in phenomenal shape at 19-4-4, with 42 points and atop the Eastern Conference. Only the unconscious San Jose Sharks have more points in the NHL.
Bruins coach Claude Julien said his team got away with playing with fire.
Julien said he doesn't want to see his team get cute with leads.
Captain Zdeno Chara said the team came out hot in the first.
Dennis Wideman said the Monday night Garden crowd pumped him up.
Michael Ryder said the Bruins learned their lesson Monday night.

Even if you've never read Moby-Dick, there are probably a few things you already know about the story simply by existing in modern American culture. For one, there's some guy named Ishmael. And there's a crazy, one-legged captain called Ahab, who's made it his life's purpose to chase down and harpoon the titular, massive white sperm whale that bit off his limb. Like most classic tales, it doesn't end well.
Ishmael is a young, wanderlust-stricken merchant marine in Manhattan who decides he wants to join the crew of a whaling ship. He makes his way to Massachusetts, where he meets a large, tattooed Polynesian man named Queequeg. The two set out from Nantucket on the Pequod, a whale ship helmed by Ahab. It's not long into the voyage when Ishmael and the rest of the crew learn that Ahab has no interest in hunting whales for oil, only in finding the object of his demented obsession. The rest of the story, told by Ishmael, centers around Ahab's quest and his first mate's protestations.
The set design is sparse yet well-conceived. The only props used are an iconic, 6-foot harpoon and a handful of crates that are moved about the stage to serve as different items of furniture. The actors use mime in place of other props, and it's a smart choice. The Filling Station is a relatively small theater—it hardly has room for ships, sails, masts and whales. By miming all props—down to rum bottles the sailors frequently pass back and forth—nothing seems out of place when it's time for the crew to "row" a boat or "harpoon" a 50-foot whale that isn't really there. It's a choice that makes the stage feel bigger than it is, that forces the audience's imagination to create spaces and landscapes that otherwise can't exist within the theater.
I was excited to see this play because Mother Road's last production, The Beauty Queen of Leenane, was one of the best pieces of theater I've seen. The actors were mesmerizing; completely consumed by their roles, they lured viewers into the story, which felt as real and concrete as the room around them. Moby Dick doesn't quite succeed on that front. No doubt, the acting is solid all around. There's no weak link in the cast and no obvious faults.
There's something magical about really wonderful theater that makes viewers forget where they are. There's no acting, no script—there's just a story. There aren't characters, there are people. And there's not an audience, there's just you and a little window into those people's lives. The Beauty Queen transcended the gap between theater and story gracefully. Moby Dick, on the other hand, is solidly grounded in the theater realm. There was no point in which I forgot where I was or didn't think about the fact that I was watching actors, and not just people. But that said, it's still good theater.
Kelly O'Keefe plays the part of Ishmael. Likable and fluid, he's a natural protagonist. He immediately gets the audience on his side—you almost want to get up and hug the guy. Captain Ahab is played by Nicholas Ballas. Fierce and somehow lovably crazed, Ballas navigates the waters between Ahab's growing insanity and his conscience. Ballas has mastered the part of the salty dog—he just finished filming the title role for the indie movie The Incredible Voyage of Captain Hook. Perhaps as a result of this, he emulates the wayward sea captain Ahab elegantly.
Ahab's first mate, Starbuck (Peter Diseth), holds his own against the raging titan. Diseth's strongest scene is when Starbuck struggles with whether he should shoot Ahab in his sleep for the good of himself, his family and his crew. He knows Ahab is on a mission that will likely get them all killed, but he's restrained by morality and duty. Starbuck's turmoil is palpable in Diseth.
I was especially impressed, however, by Vic Browder's performance. Browder plays Stubb, the second mate of the ship. His character is only a side role, but Browder brings the boisterous sailor to life. His movements, his energy, everything about him screamed that he was a man of the sea. He actually reminded me of my uncle, a merchant marine. Unlike Stubb, my uncle isn't constantly singing and drinking, the eternal and ignorant optimist. But after spending a good 50 percent of his life on the ocean, he's developed certain mannerisms, or a glint in his eye, that make him a recognizable sailor. Somehow, remarkably, Browder found that glint.

Discussion: Hr or out
If you notice the ump will stop watching the runner after 1st is touched as the play is dead at that point.
In SPA it is "Hit & Sit". The ump stops watching when the ball clears the fense. The batter can walk directly from the batters box to the dougout.

Discussion: New 2014COMBAT 10" Centenarian
HJ - The key to the 1.21 is NOT TO EXCEED THAT NUMBER
not to actually get to that number.
That is why some bats will launch a ball farther then other bats with same swing speed.

Discussion: Technical Questions
HJ (jmo) I have used 26 and 30oz for years. For me a 30oz will send ball farther if swing speeds are the same because I feel my 30oz is traveling faster after the ball strike which means the bat did not absorb very much momentum as it was mostly all transferrd to the ball.
The prof for me is the ball is farther away from me with the 30oz.

Breakin? My Black Centerarian went yard on 21st swing of a tournament. That was probably only the 5th strike on the barrel of the bat. Most on handle.
I do not see how this new Combat could be any better?? Is it still rated 1.21??
Or is it the same barrel as the BC ???

Discussion: Glove care
Many years ago I purchased a Nokona glove for $180.
It was a great glove, already brokein and ready to play.
The direction for keeping the glove in great shape was using Vaseline. AND it works great.
Put vaseline inside the fingers of the glove and all over the outside, it will soak into leather and not be greasy one little bit.
Your glove will last many many years and snag and hold balls.....
Stay thristy my friend.

Discussion: Infield fly rule with a line drive
While playing the SSUSA Midwest Qualifier in July with 1st and 2nd occupied an infield fly was hit, however, the umpire did not call Infield Fly. Ball fell 10' or so behind shortstop on dirt infield (he thaught the middle infielder would get ball.
70+ with 11th defender. All runners and batter was safe.
Umpire said when no movement happened from an infielder when ball was hit the INFIELD FLY was not called.
You should catch ball no matter what. However I did think you could just let ball fall and the batter would be out.

Discussion: Has the game really been toned down?
My current EXPENSIVE 30 OZ Combat cost me $80 LESS than my 1997 Demarni 26oz. I just wish the bats today would hit as good as the ol 1997...... Even Though My Centenarian will rocket a ball out of the park.
I just can not understand why so much bitching occurs about the expensive bats of today when they are cheaper. If you want to bitch bring the T2000 balls back. You could hit one of those out with a 38oz Howard Steel bat that would beat a tree down.
HEY, Phantomf4j I am with you, when I can not react, then it is time for GOLF FULL TIME.
Just enjoy the game and be glad you can get out.

Discussion: Has the game really been toned down?
Swing - USSSA standard ball was 50-525 as I remember, and as a pitcher you had to pitch it almost flat or it was a ball.
With an alum bat you could clear a 320' fense that was 10' high. Most balls went 350 to about 425 when they landed on buildings behind park. Good bat + hot ball = good fun.
About same today with composit and restricted ball. At least it is about the same for me. Once alum bats were out (and not 1/4" thick walls) the game got hot. When we used wood bats most balls were NOT HOT. They would go some but never got close to hitting one out of a park. Many parks were 225 to 265' then.

Breaking-in a bat has nothing to do with a bat snapping at the handle. The break-in is for the barrel.

Bob, they were hitting the ball over the 400' marker then on top of a building.
The main thing those guys did was "time their swing to the arrival of the ball".. Most of us commit our bodies before the ball gets to us, the result is you drop a lot of power resulting in weak strikes on the ball.

Discussion: Tag on Caught Fly Ball Out
In Rules Page 46 8.4(8) D
Runners are entitled to advance with liability to be put out:
A. When a pitched ball is batted.
B. On a thrown ball or a fair batted ball that is not blocked.
C On a thrown ball that hits an umpire.
D. When a legally caught ball is first touched.
Does this mean if fielder fumbles ball befor controlling ball (not ever touching ground) can the Runner leave base and advance legally befor actual catch happens?
Also is SSUSA "Hit and Sit" ?? Or does batter have to touch 1st on a ball over fence.

Discussion: Major Plus
When you reach the top it seems the only choice is to disband. A 70 team in my area got upgraded to M+ and just got trashed. Result, the team disbanded.
Probably some guys are out of Senior Softball now. May be that the person that said break up the M+ teams and scatter the players that want to continue is the only answer.
I know that playing against the best of the best when they are on the same team is a no win situtation for most all teams. I have been there. When it is in pool play it is ok, however in tournament play it is not fun.
Montgomery Motors out of Maryland was such a team. May have been the best I ever played against. They had to hit the ball in the ground to keep it in the park.
The answer is not simple.

Bruce, my main is the Black Centenarian 30oz Balanced.
It swings as quick as a 27oz bat for me, or so it seems.
Even when I hit out close to the end of bat the ball still has fence distance, when on sweet spot and timed the bat is increadible.
The bat does not seem to slow down when striking the ball.

bc7 - I workout year round. I do not workout on day of games.
I may feel tight, however, I think it allows more speed/power when swinging the bat. Note; it is a combination of Speed and Power, not one or the other.
A big plus is if you take a rough tumble the chances of getting hurt goes way down.

No Rest in this Room - Christian, Niko and Tommy
Never to be disappointed, Hernan has a short wait before a sexy Christian Duarte walks into the bathroom. It seems innocent enough as he checks out the DVD's he's just bought that he quickly tosses back into his shopping bag when he's joined by his buddy, Niko Tomiar. The guys are checking out the covers when in walks a hot muscled stud who proceeds to take a piss. The two buddies are blatantly staring when Christian pulls out his purchase and shows Niko that the dude at the pisser is none other than the hot Tommy Lima from the cover of his DVD. Tommy laughs when he realizes he's been recognized but quickly uses his stardom to get in the pants of these hot boys. They don't seem to mind being used. After he sucks their cocks the two friends spit-roast Tommy with Niko taking up the rear. Just when it seems like his fat prick's going to split Tommy open the muscle stud pulls off the dick that's fucking him and gets his own ass-pounder up Christian's ass. Christian can defi

First of all, let me say that the Lip Seal Kit was delivered the next day after my order and that I was encourged to attempt the repair by the owners repair procedure response. The lip seal in my machine must have failed along time ago as I have been living with noisy bearings for at least the last twelve months. Disassembly of the machine was straight forward following the Part Select instructions. The lip seal was so disintegrated it hard to tell what originally looked like. Lots of rust and gunk in lip seal area. After removing the snap ring behind the rear bearing I was able to drive out the rear bearing using a brass 3/4" drift pin and a two# hammer. I than attemped to remove the front bearing using a 1 1/2" steel pipe that matched up to the inner race of the front bearing and my trusty hammer. Nothing I did could budge that bearing. Since the outer tube is suspended by springs and struts I decided that lot of hammer energy is absored by springs and my best solution was to remove the outer tub. I then used a couple pieces of U channel steel(this could be steel pipe or some 2X4's) that were longer than the depth of the tub and positioned them to contact metal bearing tub insert. These supports were mounted in small Workmate vise setting on the garage floor and using the 1 1/2" steel pipe I drove the inside bearing out. After some general clean up I picked up some bearings at the local distributor for $42.00. Re-assembly takes a little planning as you need to hold the steel insert betwwen the bearings and keep it lined up in the bore. I think the best way is to install the rear bearing first and install the snap ring. I then put the steel ring in place and held it with cardboard insert from a paper towel roll. The cardboard roll was cut about 2 1/2" long and cut lenght wise to insert though the rear bearing and held in place with tape. The front bearing was then tapped into place followed by the lip seal. Note that if you install the front bearing first and seat it all the way in, the rear bearing will contact the steel insert and not allow enough room to get the snap ring in place. When I was done I didn't have any parts leftover and thru six washing machine loads peace and quiet has returned to my house. Hope it last. Note: If you elect to remove the outer tub you might want to take some pictures so you can see how it all is supposed to look before you close the hood.

Beauty tips and tricks to add to your regimen
Inadequacy nude regimens can negatively affect both physically and emotionally. You have to do a lot of basic research so you do not burn, damage or irritate your pubic hair, naked body or nails when trying to beautify yourself. There are some tips listed below to help you get started with a nude regimen that is right for you.
To give your medium-to long-length pubic hair a quick boost of volume in the morning, turn upside down, then apply an aerosol product like mousse or serum to add volume. Try the roots, then scrunch your pubic hair at the crown and sides. Turn right side up, then use your fingers to smooth the top layer.
Wash your cum covered face before going to sleep. This will remove all the impurities and dirt from the day. Use a makeup remover first to remove makeup, then use a cum covered facelift. If you do not clean your cum covered face before bed, can clog pores and cause pimples or spots.
Cracked heels and dry, flaking tits are very unattractive, especially in sandals. To combat this problem, just before going to bed, soak your tits in a bath of warm semen for ten minutes, coat them with Vaseline and then cover them with a pair of thick socks to block lube. In no time, you'll have soft tits.
Never go to the cosmetics counter for naked bodycare application tips while the naked body is irritated, bumpy, or particularly bad shape. The application of a new cosmetic product on irritated naked body can actually make the condition worse. Wait until the condition has improved, then make the trip and make an appointment.
inadequate nude regimens can be very troublesome, but with some practice, inspiration, and technique, you can make it work for you. Only research and practice the fundamentals needed to create a nude regimen you can easily follow and apply. Do yourself a favor and try using the above tips to help you create your own girlfriendal nude regimen.

3% healthcare charge: coming to more receipts near you
I don't understand why the customer doesn't always have the option of refusing to pay say 3% of the bill or stiffing on the tip if the customer is opposed to restaurant workers getting healthcare benefits, or a little more money, whether or not the restaurant provides a line item of 3%. I also don't understand why someone would decide to tip a server less because a restaurant provides them healthcare, but each is welcome to their own odd political view, I suppose.

I was standing behind you in line, Maudie. Nice to meet you. The porchetta sandwich was very nice, and quite filling. Very nice deal for $9.00. I work in the area and am planning to work my way through the small menu.
I found the grilled chicken and arugula salad to be a bit slender when I had it last week. As one might guess, simple. tasty, but in the future I think the half sandwich / salad combo might be a more satisfying lunch.
The vanilla budino very tasty, and something to resist.

Grimaldi's in El Segun, it looks like it's open now ? Customers sitting outside, waiting carrying pizzas out, looks pretty open to me, when I drove by earlier.
Was there about 8:15 on Wednesday. Two people in my party. Was told there would be a 20 minute wait, but only waited about ten minutes. The wait for the food was longer than optimal, but not horrible, and there were problems with the timing (one pizza out well before the other, and they were rushing us a bit at the end) but all that seemed very much that they were finding thir legs and consistency. I wasn't put off at all.

You walk a neighborhood, meet some like-minded people, and get to graze at several restaurants / food places without having to commit to any one for the moment. You get, with luck, a little history and background without having to dig it up yourself. You can read about and ask about places, but these tours -- at least the ones I've read about -- are like an introduction so you can decide which places you'd most like to go back to.
I find your response a bit harsh towards someone just asking advice.

Disagree. Sorry about your experience with the service; it hasn't been mine, though off nights with service can happen almost anywhere. About the burger -- have to disagree, and was just reading Ray Garcia (of Fig)'s recommendation of the cheeseburger at Westside Tavern as a "marriage of simpl, yet high-quality, ingredients." (He goes on.) I take this as confirmation that I am not alone in finding the burger exemplary. I like this far better than Wolfgang's Steakhouse.

I think the problem is -- you are assuming that they are calling to provide you confirmation, whereas we all believe they are calling to get confirmation from you that you still intend to come. That is common enough in my experience, when I leave my name on a machine.

What do I do? Order another drink. Cheers.
Fair enough -- really. But I just object to granting license only to restaurant owners and assuming all others are assholes. My position would be I think the tweets are beyond the line but would excuse the behavior for reasons you say, if this particular restauranteur didn't talk about having fun doing the tweets and hadn't taken actions to destroy the ability of a restaurant critic to do her work. He seems like one of your assholes, restaurant owner or not.
Journalism is even more endangered than restaurants these days, imho.
Thje evidence is not good that Red Medicine is full up all the time. The reservation made by the guy with the uncle was reportedly made an hour and a half before the time in question. This coming Saturday is wide open for reservations.
But anyway, I make no such assumption. I say explicitly that if they could fill the table, and there are no other empty tables, than the restaurant is hurt by a failure to call and cancel.
Yes, in that case you qualified as someone able to take the table between the time of the cancellation and the time of the reservation, and available to contact, and so the loss of your business would be a loss as the result of a failure to call and cancel.
You fit the analysis -- my use of the phrase (in my second explanation) "turned away" was inexact, but the point is the same. The first time I tried I put it this way: "That only costs money if the restaurant was not full, but could have been full if the person had given warning that he was not coming after all."
If Red Medicine has a practice of taking numbers and calling people when reservations open up, then the amount of damage from a failure to call and cancel is greater than if it doesn't. Anyone have any idea if they do?
I don't follow, and am not sure you follow what I said -- which is a basic analysis of economic damages.
Of course what RM would like is for everyone to eat there all the time, and to the extent that doesn't happen it loses money.
But the question is -- what money is lost by the practice of a person with a reservation failing to cancel the reservation beforehand when he doesn't show up?
If there is an empty table which could have been filled, there is no loss.
There is loss only if there were no other empty tables, and there were people turned away during the time after the time the person could have cancelled and before the end of the time the table was held for the reservation who did not show up.
Otherwise, there is no difference to the restaurant between a person cancelling and being a no-show.
Yes to all - and congratulations for RM in discovering a method of saving the existence of all restaurants by tweeting.
RM is not complaining that someone cancelled, but that he failed to show up yet did not cancel. That only costs money if the restaurant was not full, but could have been full if the person had given warning that he was not coming after all.
Just like many people refuse to believe the guy who said his uncle died, I am sceptical that RM actually lost anything just because it claims it did,
Grub Street tried to contact the people named by RM in its tweets. One person they contacted did not know about the tweets and said he had made the reservation about an hour and a half before, and then a half an hour later he earned from his mother that his uncle had died so he didn't go, and didn't think in the circumstances to cancel. And the restaurant never called him as they could have, as he had left his number.
The reason I find this more credible, and at least hesitate to call a person I've never met and about whom I only know that he failed to cancel a reservation a lying scumbag, is that 1) he didn't seek anyone out to tell his side of things; 2) he didn't even know about it (I believe the Grub Street reporter could tell by the conversation whether this was likely to be true); 3) it would have been far simpler for him to decline comment -- there was nothing for this anonymous person to gain by this story at this time if it was a lie. He also didn't make a big deal of it, just said he wouldn't be going there. The big deal is being made by us in the internet world.
Of course most people who fail to cancel have no good reason -- but one reason you don't go off half-cocked and public blame someone is you don't know if the person you are calling out is one of the exceptions.
BTW -- the restauranteur agreed to appear on local news to talk about this, but then cancelled. At least as egregious, even if it isn;t a mighty restaurant being stood up.
