Jon Heyman wants Jack Morris in the Hall of Fame and won't let the facts get in his way in order to make it happen
Jan 7, 2013, 8:59 PM EDT
UPDATE: Since this post went up Heyman has updated his column to take out the lines about Blyleven and Stewart. No explanation in the column of course. And it changes little, actually. He may call it an oversight, but it's a case of him wanting to believe something so badly that the facts ceased mattering at some point.
8:59 PM: Jon Heyman put up his Hall of Fame column this afternoon. For years he has pushed hard for Jack Morris for the Hall. He has long overstated Morris' merits in my view, but it's gotten to the point now where he's simply making crap up:
He was thought good enough to be the ace on teams that had Bert Blyleven and Dave Stewart, and to receive Cy Young votes in seven seasons. I can't allow his vast accomplishments to be re-evaluated downward by a new emphasis on different numbers.
Jack Morris and Bert Blyleven were never teammates. Jack Morris played one season with Dave Stewart. In that one season — 1993 — Morris was 7-12 with a 6.19 ERA. It's possible that Heyman is calling Morris the "ace" of that 1993 Jays team because he got the Opening Day start, but he didn't distinguish himself at all that year, he was out of the rotation by early September and was left off the postseason roster. Some ace.
Heyman has an agenda. He wants Morris in the Hall of Fame. He is so committed to that agenda that he will mislead his readers in order to make it happen. Because this can't just be a mistake, right? Because it takes approximately five seconds in order to get that stuff right and we know someone given the privilege of making baseball history in the form of a Hall of Fame vote is not going to just dash it off without careful consideration and due diligence, right?

"a new emphasis on different numbers"? What, like ERA?
- drewsylvania - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:05 PM
If Heyman emphasized ERA, it'd be an improvement over his column.
- tomemos - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:14 PM
If he emphasized ERA, he'd realize that Morris would have the worst ERA in the Hall, coming from a pitching-heavy era.
- scatterbrian - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:50 PM
Perhaps losses, as in third-most losses in the 80s?
- chomsky66 - Jan 7, 2013 at 10:14 PM
or wild pitches? Morris led the American League in WPs SIX times (and the majors three times). He's 13th all-time in wild pitches. So while it's been proven he didn't "pitch to the score," he certainly pitched to the backstop.
- weavahvbc - Jan 8, 2013 at 10:49 AM
ERA isn't important – morris said it himself when calling into one of the MLB network's shows. only wins matter, and if ERA was so important, he *could* have had a better ERA.
- cur68 - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:07 PM
Hey, don't let the facts cloud your judgement on a popular stance, man. Its suddenly all the rage to turn Jack 'Effin Morris into a Baseball God when he was pretty average in most meaningful respects. Stick with the narrative.
- chill1184 - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:07 PM
Heyman and facts? Since when does Heyman have those?

Heyman and facts? Since when does Heyman use those?
- hep3 - Jan 7, 2013 at 11:35 PM
As Joe Magrane once opined to Jon Heyman on the MLB Network, "If Chico Escuela would have played five more years for the Mets, Heyman would vote for him for the Hall of Fame."
Heyman needs to retire with his Hall of Fame vote.
- bobhorner - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:09 PM
Hey, we don't need you pulling out your new fancy stats to ruin Jack Morris' 1993 season!
- schlom - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:13 PM
I'd like to know when Heyman first voted for Morris. I doubt that he's been voting for him since he was first eligible (more likely that he's just voted for him the last few years) although even if he has it still wouldn't make him any less full of s**t.
- psunick - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:18 PM
Are you the only person who is even worthy of submitting a ballot, Craig?
You really are coming across quite self righteously, dontcha think?
- tomemos - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:21 PM
How is it "self-righteous" to point out that a voter is simply lying, or grievously confused, in explaining his ballot?
- Craig Calcaterra - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:32 PM
Sorry if expecting Hall of Fame voters to not simply make shit up makes me come off as self-righteous, friend.
- hgfrombc2 - Jan 8, 2013 at 7:21 AM
Enough already. The fact is, Heyman has a vote and can use it as he sees fit, given that the guidelines are pretty subjective:
5. Voting: Voting shall be based upon the player's record, playing ability, integrity, sportsmanship, character, and contributions to the team(s) on which the player played.
Stop playing Bill O'Reilly to his Keith Olberman (or vice versa), and use this forum for something other than a fruitless rant. Direct your outrage (directly) toward the body that decides who the HOF voters are. If you already have, post that letter/e-mail and the response(s) you received.
And, yes, I am a life-long Tiger fan, but couldn't give two shits whether Morris makes the Hall or not. If I had one, my vote would go to Alan Trammell/Lou Whitaker.
- frank433 - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:22 PM
So, everybody wants Jack Morris in the hall, but friggin Sweet Lou Wittaker isn't even on the ballot anymore?
THAT, ladies and gentleman, is a bigger injustice.
- kirkvanhouten - Jan 8, 2013 at 9:50 AM
Or that Heyman had the opportunity to vote for Trammel and didn't.
Do Tigers fans just curse angrily every time the HOF is mentioned? I mean, to have one of the greatest double play combinations of all time together for 19 years yet get no respect….
- joshfrancis50 - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:22 PM
Misleading readers doesn't even help. Just makes him look like an ass.
- brewcrewfan54 - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:29 PM
I almost want Morris elected just so I don't have to see all the people argue for his induction year after year then I realize it will just be better when he finally comes off the ballot altogether. Something tells me the Veterans comittee will end up putting him in eventually though.
- ptfu - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:45 PM
Yeah, electing Morris just seems like something the VC would do. Then again, I'll bet that several worthy candidates will fall off this year's crowded BBWAA ballot, placing them within the VC's realm. The BBWAA logjam could trickle down to the VC. Morris could get blocked again and the debate would rage on!
- brewcrewfan54 - Jan 7, 2013 at 10:04 PM
Oh geez don't say that! Well then hopefully all the John Heymans' out there retire soon to spare us all their arguments every year.
- raulduke11 - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:33 PM
Great piece
- legacybroken - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:34 PM
Since when did ERA become some obscure statistic? Then again its Heyman who long has ceased to be relevent and now exists solely as a walking Scott Boras ad.
- kappy32 - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:34 PM
Heyman doesn't let facts get in the way of anything he says. The only thing more ridiculous than his writing is the hardcore man-crush he has on Derek Jeter.
- simon94022 - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:40 PM
Just remember: no matter what them gol darned new fangled statisticals say, Jack Morris and Jim Rice are solid Hall of Famers. Pie Traynor was the greatest third baseman in the history of the game, way better than those Schmidt and Brett characters. The greatest first baseman ever was Gil Hodges. And they don't make umps like Hank O'Day anymore.
Guys like Clemens, Bonds, Bagwell? Punks! None of them could have cracked the roster of the 1952 Brooklyn Dodgers, unquestionably the Greatest Team of All Time.
Now please take your modernistical automated electronic slide rules and … get off my lawn!
- uuddlrlrbastart - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:49 PM
I think my favorite part is "he was thought good enough." Because when I think Hall of Fame, I think of players who were thought good enough.
- tpxdmd - Jan 7, 2013 at 9:52 PM
He actually changed it to delete the Blyleven and Stewart line. Without an editorial note to point out he changed it. Nice.
I really like this "Detractors point to a less-than-glowing career 3.90 ERA, but his career is better summarized by a great decade (most wins of the '80s) and great moments (his Game 7 performance in 1991 for his hometown Minnesota Twins was maybe the best pitching performance under the circumstances in decades)."
I think it is very fair to say that Morris really did pitch the best Game 7 in the 1991 World Series for his hometown Twins. Not just in decades but ever. So good on you there, Heyman.
- misterchainbluelightning - Jan 7, 2013 at 10:04 PM
I dare Heyman to attempt to make an argument where Morris was a better pitcher than Dave Stieb. Actually I dare anyone because the attempts would amuse me.
- tfbuckfutter - Jan 7, 2013 at 10:09 PM
I used to have no opinion of Jack Morris.
I now hate him with a passion. One of the most pedestrian pitchers I never really watched play in my opinion. I hope he never gets in the Hall and kind of hope he gets gonorrhea.
- misterchainbluelightning - Jan 7, 2013 at 10:16 PM
Not sure how is more over-rated today
Morris or Notre Dame
- misterchainbluelightning - Jan 7, 2013 at 10:17 PM
- tfbuckfutter - Jan 7, 2013 at 10:19 PM
If you didn't correct that we'd have no idea hat you were talking about.
- butchhuskey - Jan 7, 2013 at 10:17 PM
The thing about Jack Morris is that people voting for him always say things like "He was an ace! I saw it with my own eyes!" or "You had to be there- I saw Jack Morris pitch and people who don't think he's a Hall of Famer never saw him pitch."
By that logic, none of these sportswriters can comment on the greatness of Babe Ruth. After all, I'm pretty sure none of them actually saw him play.
- churchoftheperpetuallyoutraged - Jan 7, 2013 at 10:53 PM
Adding on to this, those same sportswriters who actually saw Morris pitch* never considered him as great as he was. He never came close to a CY award or an MVP award, only made 5 ASG's…
*Craig has pointed this out numerous times, but it still bares repeating.
- mnwildfan15 - Jan 7, 2013 at 10:26 PM
I want a hat
- wpjohnson - Jan 7, 2013 at 11:01 PM
Morris has no business in the Hall of Fame other than as a paying visitor. If he is elected, the Hall will diminish in stature.
- crackersnap - Jan 7, 2013 at 11:43 PM
"…a new emphasis on different numbers"
First the Trout/Cabrera debate, now the Morris dialog. Is this recent rage against knowledge and information becoming the new narrative in baseball?
It feels like we have many individuals who have long had control over the relationship between baseball and its fans, and they are becoming ever more petulant that their world view is losing its historical place atop the sports mountain. It's going to get tiresome before they surrender.
- tomemos - Jan 8, 2013 at 1:05 AM
I've said it before: Jack Morris is going to be the first HOFer elected out of spite.
- paperlions - Jan 8, 2013 at 7:42 AM
I think Jim Rice was also elected out of spite…..and an argument can be made that Andre Dawson was as well.
- rgledz - Jan 7, 2013 at 11:56 PM
Craig…..why do you hate Jack Morris so much? Why has it become your personal goal to discredit and destroy everything Jack Morris?? I don't even think he should be in the HOF, but dear God you write a post every week about how undeserving he is. We get it! You don't think he should be in the HOF. I wouldn't even know about these pro Jack Morris articles if I didn't see your post ripping them to shreds. If you are ever up for a Pulitzer, Jack Morris should start a blog and post weekly how undeserving of it you are.
- ptfu - Jan 8, 2013 at 12:54 AM
This article is really about Jon Heyman ignoring/fabricating facts, not Jack Morris. Craig's going to be snarky about people who write silly things, regardless of topic. That's who he is. 'Tis Hall of Fame election season so of course there are lots of HOF articles out there to mock.
- tomemos - Jan 8, 2013 at 1:07 AM
Craig doesn't hate Morris, he hates the nonsense (and in this case, fabricated) arguments made to support his candidacy. Which is to say, Craig hates Jon Heyman, as all decent people do.
- joerymi - Jan 7, 2013 at 11:57 PM
We might actually live in a world where Jack Morris is in the HOF and Roger Clemens isn't. I feel like Rod Serling is going to pop-up on the screen.
- youknowwhatsgoodforshoulderpain - Jan 8, 2013 at 12:21 AM
Don look now, Craig, but Scott Miller also is jumping on the Morris bandwagon.
"Morris worked eight or more innings in 52 percent of his starts over 14 seasons. That is dominant, Hall of Fame stuff."
According to Mr. Miller, if you can pitch 8 innings 50% of the time, regardless of the results, you are "dominant". That makes no sense, so let's agree to disagree.
- crackersnap - Jan 8, 2013 at 2:41 AM
Good Heavens. Miller's lists of reasons are so ridiculous, even to this 56 year old dinosaur, that it defies any rational response. Maybe Miller would respond to similar silliness, and should consider that over the course of Morris' 18 year career his own contemporaries only put him on 5 All Star teams.

Kennett Square's own Galer Estate Vineyard and Winery took home the top prizes for red and white wine at this weekend's Mushroom Festival (also held in Kennett Square).
This is the second year in a row that the vineyard has won the honor, according to a press release sent out Monday. Attendees at the Mushroom Festival can vote on a variety of local wines at the festival's wine and soup tent; more than 1,000 people sipped at Cabernets and Merlots at this year's bash.
The winning wines were a 2011 Red Huntress Merlot blend and a 2012 Pinot Gris. You can taste them yourself at the Galer Estate Winery Tasting Room at 700 Folly Hill Road in Kennett Square.
The Chester County District Attorney's office on Thursday announced another round of drug-related arrests in Coatesville -- part of an ongoing operation to combat violent crime and homicide in Chester County's only city.
Nine people were arrested in the latest sweep, the third since last year. In a press release, District Attorney Tom Hogan said they had been charged with drug dealing offenses, mostly involving cocaine and heroin.
The operation's aim is to prevent homicides in Coatesville by targeting what the DA calls "high-risk" offenders -- in other words, offenders with prior violent convictions or outstanding warrants. In 2012, the city had a murder rate higher than that of Philadelphia, but Hogan said in Thursday's press release that there haven't been any murders so far this year.
A group of Coatesville youth will host a festival promoting environmental awareness Saturday at Gateway Park in the city.
Members of the Coatesville Youth Initiative's ServiceCorps, a leadership development program sponsored by the Brandywine Health Foundation, will lead the 3d Annual Coatesville Recycling & Living Green Festival where the theme of the day will be "Reuse-Recycle-Reduce."
Area residents can sign up to receive a free recycling bin and drop off recyclable items including plastic, glass, computers, paper, cell phones and electronics. Artist Joe Boyle will create a sculpture out of the items turned in during the day. Children's games, face painting and refreshments will also be offered.
Tredyffrin Township police said Thursday that they had found a body whose clothing and physical attributes matched the description of a Paoli woman missing since Aug. 6.
The body was found in a quarry near Rt. 252 and Chesterbrook Boulevard, Det. Sgt. Todd Bereda said. It was initially spotted by a state police aircraft that was helping search for Irene Chen, 53.
There is a 60-foot drop from the edge of the quarry to the body of water in which the deceased person was found, he said, and a fence surrounds the area. The quarry is about a mile and a half from Chen's home.
Congratulations to West Goshen Township, which was selected as one of "America's Best Small Towns" by Money magazine in its September issue.
The 22,421-population township ranked No. 10 on Money's list, ahead of another Philadelphia suburb, Horsham, which was ranked No. 34. Sharon, Mass. took the top spot on the list.
The magazine praised West Goshen's "lush, suburban feel" and proximity to downtown West Chester -- as well as "an array of local employers" and "easy commutes" to Philadelphia and Wilmington.
More than 700 beekeepers (apiculturists, if you want to get technical) will descend on West Chester next week for the Eastern Apicultural Society's annual conference.
Attendees can hear everything from a symposium on apitherapy -- a therapy that combines acupuncture sites and bee venom -- to chats with bee experts to the "Bee Olympics," which includes "a race where teammates carry a 50-pound hive."
The conference this year is focusing on industry newcomers and small-scale beekeepers looking to learn about the fine art of apiculture, and includes day-long "bee yards" (exactly what they sound like) where seasoned beekeepers will answer questions about the craft. (If you're allergic to bees, avoid this one, and if you're not, wear light-colored clothing and nix the perfume to avoid attracting bees.)
Police are investigating a July 29 shooting in Caln that wounded a Coatesville man.
Gupree White, 25, of Coatesville, was shot once by an "unknown caliber handgun" at around 10:40 p.m. on July 29, Caln police said. The incident occurred in a car on the 100 block of Foundry Street.
White was a passenger in the car, police said, but they didn't specify who was with him or who was driving the vehicle. Police have not yet located the shooter and are continuing to investigate, they said.

over multiattribute models. If some of the less common models in the toolkit were more widely utilized, much of the dissatisfaction might well disappear. However, this is probably not a sufficient response to the criticisms. For example, Wolf, Bixby, Glenn, and Gardner (1991) present a strong argument for the following needs:
If we are able to design tasks and modes of data collection that permit us to change the data we collect about student performance, we will have still another task in front of us. This is the redesign or invention of educational psychometrics capable of answering the much-changed questions of educational achievement. In place of ranks, we will want to establish a developmentally ordered series of accomplishments. First…we are opening up the possibility of multiple paths to excellence…. Second, if we indeed value clinical judgment and a diversity of opinions among appraisers (such as certainly occurs in professional settings and post secondary education), we will have to revise our notions of high-agreement reliability as a cardinal symptom of a useful and viable approach to scoring student performance…. Third, we will have to break step with the drive to arrive

SOUTH Korea's royal prince cuts a handsome dash as he glides through the streets of this ancient city of Jeonju, traditional Korean robes flapping in the breeze.
He is down-to-earth and friendly and shakes hands and poses for group photographs if asked.
" 'Your highness', they say. I say 'Stop. No! No!'" says Yi Seok with a quick smile and the slightly puzzled look of someone surprised by the hand that fate has dealt him.
From anointed prince to Buddhist monk, from pop singer to homeless vagrant, the last royal son of the Chosun dynasty still living in South Korea has led a varied life whose ups and downs mirror Korea's own turbulent recent history of war and poverty, wealth and industrialisation.
Around Asia, many countries, like Japan, Thailand and Cambodia, have held fast to their royal families, seen by their people as anchors of stability in a changing world.
For the Japanese, the royal household is the most important symbol of Japan to have survived defeat in World War II. In Cambodia, the royal family is widely credited with holding the country together through the horrors of rule by the Khmer Rouge. And in Thailand, the king is revered as a force for stability and progress.
But other parts of Asia, countries like Laos, South Korea and its great neighbour China, have seen royal families overthrown or cast aside by colonial powers or revolutionary regimes and rarely look back to what they have lost.
Yi, 63, sees himself as perhaps South Korea's last link through the events of the last century to a past that many Koreans have turned their back on.
"The dynasty probably ends with me," he says of the royal house that ruled for more than 500 years from 1392 until it was overthrown by Japanese colonial occupiers in 1910.
An uncle who is recognised as the crown prince of the Chosun household is 75, childless, lives in Japan and cannot speak Korean. Yi has two younger brothers and a son and two daughters who live in the United States. None has shown any interest in the royal succession.
"The children don't care. 'Come and join us in America', they keep telling me," Yi says in an interview in Jeonju where the royal house traces its origins.
Today, Yi lives alone and largely unnoticed in a traditional Korean house in an old quarter of this city. "Some of the old folks know who I am," he says. "The young ones don't."
Ten minutes by foot from his home is a shrine to the founder of the Chosun dynasty and an ancient pavilion where royal records were placed for safekeeping during a 16th century invasion by the Japanese.
Proud of a history they trace back thousands of years, most Koreans are uneasy about the Chosun dynasty's heritage.
Though period dramas about court intrigue are TV staples, the dying agony of the dynasty under the heel of the Japanese, who ruled the country from 1910-1945, still rankles with Koreans who blame the Chosun elite for failing to modernise the country in time to prevent it being overrun.
"I am very proud, though I understand the criticism" says Yi.
He notes that one of the great Chosun rulers, the 15th century King Sejong, created Hangul, the Korean alphabet. Until then Koreans used Chinese characters to write their own language.
And he says that for centuries Korea lived in peace under benign rulers who valued scholarship above warfare and promoted artistic and literary endeavour.
But he admits the country's rulers turned their backs on the outside world, leading Korea to be known as the Hermit Kingdom until, by the end of the 19th century, western and Asian powers were competing for influence in the region and Korea became a strategic prize.
"At that time, Korea had no power and we were small," says Yi. "We could not stand up to the big powers." Yi's grandfather, King Kojong, Korea's last reigning monarch, presided over the country before its collapse under Japanese rule.
Yi, who remembers a royal palace childhood living in splendour, surrounded by servants and ladies-in-waiting, was born when Korea was occupied by the Japanese, who stripped the ruling house of all power.
New republic
After liberation in 1945, the dynasty's wealth and property including five palaces were confiscated by the new republic established under Syngman Rhee, South Korea's first president.
The dynasty was effectively destroyed and Yi reckons his family lost land and property worth US$1.5bil at the time and considerably more now.
"A restoration could have worked then," says Yi wistfully. "The Chosun dynasty could have survived. But that is no longer true. A restoration is out of the question now. The young really couldn't care less."
Times grew harder when Rhee was ousted in a military coup in 1960 and Park Chung-Hee took power, tightening the screws on the royal family. Worse followed with Park's 1979 assassination and the rise to power of another military coup leader, Chun Doo-Hwan.
Prior to Chun's takeover, Yi had studied foreign languages at a top Seoul university and hoped to become a diplomat but after the first coup in 1960, the flow of money to the royals was stopped and his hopes were not met.
To pay his way, from his freshman year in 1960 Yi took up singing at bars and night clubs, and was popular on US military bases. His popularity soared with the late 1960s hit ballad House of Doves. Members of the royal family were upset. Under the Chosun dynasty, entertainers belonged to the lower rungs of society.
From 1966 to 1969, Yi fought in the Vietnam War with the South Korean Tiger Division, sent there by then-president Park in an effort to solidify relations with the United States. He was wounded in the shoulder by shrapnel.
Years of entertaining, drinking and womanising followed. Then life took a turn for the worse again when then-president Park was assassinated in 1979 and the new president Chun kicked the royal family out of its palace in Seoul.
Yi, homeless and penniless, emigrated to the United States where he worked for 10 years as a day labourer, handyman and security guard.
He returned home for the funeral in Seoul of Korea's last queen, his aunt, in 1989, and embarked on a spell of homeless wandering, trying to revive his singing career and living out of a minivan.
The collapse of his third marriage in 1999 coincided with the recognition that nightclubs no longer wanted an ageing crooner.
"I was nothing. I had nothing. Life was nothing," he says.
Suffering at different times from depression, he has made a total of eight failed suicide attempts in his life and at one point lost several years to whiskey-induced amnesia.
But then he stopped drinking, stubbed out his last cigarette and decided to change. "I shaved my head and prayed for two years on the top of a mountain," and became a Buddhist monk, he says.
With peace of mind restored, he returned to mainstream life and to Jeonju, the home of his ancestors 240km south of Seoul.
Coming home
With his sharp features and trim figure, Yi today looks the part of the royal prince and has overcome his problems, as his country has moved to democracy, found peace and developed as a wealthy Asian nation.
He has stopped blaming himself for the sins of his fathers and the failure of the dynasty and found a purpose in his own life.
"No more tears, no more sorrow. I am happy," he says. His ambition is to establish a museum to one of the world's longest-ruling royal houses.
On a tour to promote his idea last year, he came to this ancient city where local officials were ready to listen.
They built a traditional Korean house for him in a picturesque corner of the city where old-style Korean homes with wooden frames and tiled roofs were being renovated.
Yi has guestrooms and visitors who want to experience a slice of traditional Korea can come and stay. An old-style teahouse is under construction next door.
And he, himself, has become a living museum, with a unique story to tell.
"It is an interesting story, and I am the only one left who can tell it," Yi says. – AFP

Glad to return some favors Shawn. I don't get enough darkroom time, so I spend some of my time figuring out how to make it more efficient, like analyzing film development curves. I always enjoy looking at your work.

June kicks off National Smile month and the animals at SeaWorld Orlando and Busch Gardens Tampa are showing off their pearly and not-so-pearly whites!
The animal care teams at the SeaWorld Parks in Florida manage millions of teeth every year to keep all the animals healthy. Here's a mouthful of dental details from our animal friends sure to make you smile.
Sharks have four or more rows of teeth and when teeth fall out, new ones take their place. Some species of sharks may shed as many as 30,000 teeth in a lifetime.
Since California sea lions don't have enamel like human teeth, their teeth build up a dark coating for protection.
Orangutans have 32 teeth, the same number as humans.
Hippos have larger teeth on the bottom, which sharpen each time they open and close their mouths. This helps maintain hippos' overall dental health by preventing the teeth from growing too quickly.
Alligators have between 74 and 80 teeth in their mouth at a time. Each tooth is replaced once it wears down. An alligator can go through up to 3,000 teeth in a lifetime.

Anybody still working out ??
30 mins of walking about 4 times a week.
Reid 7/30/09 and Drew 12/6/12
I'm doing aqua aerobics for an hour 2 times a week. That's about it other than just the usual walking. I was never a gym person before, so I am proud of myself for staying active!
if slowly walking 2 bulldogs for 20 minutes a night counts... then yes. No more spinning or weight lifting aerobics classes for me... maybe in March when my baby will be old enought to go to the daycare at the gym.
i've been hiking a few times a week, but lately any incline kills me and that's all there is here so it's probably about to stop. i hiked a few miles 2 days ago and the bottoms of my feet still hurt so friday's hike is going to be a real bitch!
I do restorative yoga once a week (with my DH) and LOVE it. I also can not stand the slightest incline without feeling like im suffocating. Signed up for a small turkey trot on thanksgiving- my husband will prob finish in 21 minutes, it'l take me over an hour to walk 3.3 miles!
i was working out 5 days a week 2 hours a day up until we left for our trip to Hawaii in the beginning of April. Little did I know that I was recently pregnant when we left for our trip. I went to the gym ONCE after we came back and haven't been back since.

PORTLAND -- Fire season appears to be starting early this year. Local firefighters are concerned about conditions that are far drier than they should be for this time of year.
Small wildfires broke out over the past week in rural Oregon and Washington. Most were sparked by burn piles. Fire officials across Washington and Oregon are closely monitoring fire conditions and may have to close the burn season early this year.
They're calling for 80 degree temperatures so we're getting it done, said Jamie Anderson of Yacolt.
He's burning branches from 12 Alder trees he just cut down. There's a rush to clear rural properties and burn off debris while it's still safe, but is it?
It's very early to be talking about wildfires, said Gordon Brooks a Battalion Chief with Clark County Fire District 10. We actually had a wildfire Thursday that spread into some timber from a burn pile.
Volunteer firefighters were able to stop it, but say it's far to early to see wildfires.
We didn't have anything happen until august last year, said Brooks.
The early dry conditions have rural firefighters around the region already planning for what's expected to be a busy season. Volunteer firefighters at district 10 spent Saturday in the classroom studying firefighting strategies. They're also closely watching fire conditions and forecasts.
If a big fire breaks out early east of the mountains, they will likely travel there to help, leaving our area more vulnerable.
I think we're going to have a very busy year, both locally and statewide and that affects the resources right here if we have to go somewhere else, said Brooks.
With more and more housing developments in forested areas, the potential for disaster grows each year. Many homes now sit directly in the footprint of the historic 1902 Yacolt burn which destroyed 239,000 acres in Clark, Cowlitz and Skamania counties and 65 people died.
Eighty percent of all fires are human caused. Jamie Anderson knows that, which is why he's being extra careful to get his burning done early this year.
Getting it done before it gets way to hot and way to dry, said Anderson.
All the small wildfires fires this week were connected to burn piles. Fire officials say it's important to create a barrier of dirt around the piles. They say when grass drys out, it can carry flames faster than you can run.

Wiesenthal rejected the concept of collective guilt and objected to out-of-court acts of vengeance. A strong believer in the liberal system of justice, he insisted that each case be proved in court, and he regarded the trials not only as acts of justice but also as exercises in moral and political education. In 1968 Wiesenthal produced a book called The Sunflower, a comprehensive symposium on guilt and forgiveness based on what Wiesenthal described as a real experience he had had during the war. According to his account, he was taken to a mortally wounded SS man who asked Wiesenthal to forgive him for his war crimes so that he would be able to die in peace. Wiesenthal did not forgive him. Subsequently, Wiesenthal wrote up a detailed account of the incident and sent it to leading statesmen and intellectuals, asking them what they would have done in his place. The Sunflower appeared in numerous languages, and among those whose reflections were included were Herbert Marcuse, Cynthia Ozick, Desmond Tutu, Rabbi Joseph Telushkin, and the Dalai Lama; it has been used as reading material in schools worldwide, reflecting Wiesenthal's educational efforts. In 1977 Wiesenthal lent his name to the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles, but he was involved only indirectly in that centre's activity.
Wiesenthal advocated a broad humanistic approach to the Holocaust, describing the extermination of the Jews as a crime against humanity and Holocaust memory not merely as a moral obligation to the dead but primarily as a tool in the struggle against further war crimes and racism. According to Wiesenthal, the extermination of the Jews can be properly understood only in the context of the persecution of other groups, such as Roma (Gypsies), the mentally ill, homosexuals, and Jehovah's Witnesses, and he compared the Holocaust to acts of genocide that occurred after World War II (such as those in Cambodia, the Balkans, and Rwanda).
In 2002 Wiesenthal formulated his educational vision for the future in a response to a letter from schoolchildren in Highland Park, N.J.:
What we experienced during the war was such a nightmare, that it is little wonder so many young people tend to look away and say, that's a part of history and has nothing to do with us today. But that is where we, the survivors, have to step in and tell them over and over again, that all this really did happen and that it is more important for all of you than you can imagine. For you are used to living in freedom, but you should recognize the danger that lies in fast changes, that can take away your freedom before you even realize it. Freedom is like health, I always tell young people; you don't recognize its value until you've lost it. Freedom is not a gift from the heavens, you have to fight for it every day of your life.
Referring to his age (Wiesenthal was then over 90 years old), Wiesenthal added that in the future it will be up to others to remember the "ravages of genocide," defining the moral goal of Holocaust memory as "taking individual responsibility for upholding human rights."
Wiesenthal's outlook on the Holocaust led to an angry dispute with the writer Elie Wiesel, who would be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1986. Wiesel accused Wiesenthal of playing down the singular nature of the Holocaust, which Wiesel saw in the fact that although "not all victims of the Nazis were Jews, all Jews were victims." Respected by many as a moral authority and accused by others of spreading false information, Wiesenthal was involved in a number of other bitter disputes, most notably with the chancellor of Austria, Bruno Kreisky, who claimed in 1975 that Wiesenthal had collaborated with the Gestapo. Wiesenthal sued Kreisky for libel and won the case. In 1986 Wiesenthal refused to join a campaign led by the World Jewish Congress against former UN secretary-general Kurt Waldheim, who was elected president of Austria in 1986 and whose service in the German Wehrmacht during World War II had been exposed. Maintaining that the evidence against Waldheim did not prove unequivocally his involvement in war crimes, Wiesenthal stood by Waldheim, thereby causing great damage to his own reputation (and potentially costing him a share of the Nobel Peace Prize).
Honours and writings
Wiesenthal's legendary image as a "Nazi hunter" (a term he detested) inspired several filmmakers, and among the actors who portrayed him were Sir Laurence Olivier and Sir Ben Kingsley. Wiesenthal received numerous honorary doctorates and awards in various countries, including the U.S. Congressional Gold Medal (1980) and the French Legion of Honour (1986). In 2004 he was made a Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire.
He also wrote several novels, including Max und Helen (1981; Max and Helen), and other books, such as KZ. Mauthausen (1946; "Concentration Camp Mauthausen"), Ich jagte Eichmann (1961; "I Hunted Eichmann"), Verjährung (1964; "Statute of Limitations"), The Murderers Among Us: The Simon Wiesenthal Memoirs (1967), Segel der Hoffnung (1972; Sails of Hope), Every Day Remembrance Day: A Chronicle of Jewish Martyrdom (1986), and Justice, Not Vengeance (1989).

The 21{+s}{+t}century calls for innovations in all sectors and this holds the key to keeping alive travellers' interest in tourist destinations in India, Chief Minister Oommen Chandy has said.
Speaking after inaugurating Indian Association of Tour Operators' (IATO) 29{+t}{+h}annual convention in the city on Sunday, he said stakeholders in the sector must strive to enhance the quality of visitor experience. "For this, the quality of human resources must improve, while focus on eco-tourism will ensure sustainable growth in the sector."
Mr. Chandy said a boost to tourism was among the best methods to support the economy in times of financial crisis.
In his presidential address, Subhash Goyal, IATO president, said foreign direct investment (FDI) can at best be a short-term measure to boost the economy, while tourism can solve India's balance of payments crisis and generate employment on a massive scale. "Foreign direct investors often withdraw a large share of their funds from India. This is not the case with stakeholders in the tourism sector whose major chunk of investment remains within the country. Inbound tourism can arrest and reverse the current trend of dipping forex reserves." Moreover, tourism is highly labour intensive and can absorb many people who have lost their livelihoods because of mechanisation in agriculture. Worldwide, a new job is created in the sector every 2.5 seconds.
On travel operators being hit by the economic slowdown in Europe and the U.S., Mr. Goyal said they had hoped to register a 20 per cent growth last season but had to reckon with a five per cent growth.
He said Kerala could wean a good number of tourists from Sri Lanka and countries in South East Asia if the high tax structure in the hospitality sector was reduced. "The devaluation of the rupee has made India a cheaper destination. But high taxation often offsets this advantage. The government must announce a five-year service-tax exemption so that there is more investment and job creation in the sector. We need visa-on-arrival for foreign tourists and also e-visas, since most big cities have IT parks."
Mr. Goyal expressed concern at many cruise ships skipping Kochi because of high berthing charges and inadequate facilities at the port. Many ships prefer to berth in Colombo. Most of our airports are improving, but this is not the case with seaports.
He said renowned resource persons would speak on how to respond to concerns and queries of foreign travellers on matters such as crimes against women at the three-day convention that would conclude on Tuesday. IATO would support India Tourism in establishing a 24-hour helpline for tourists in distress. Around 1,200 delegates and 200 special invitees are attending the three-day event.

Actor Vijay, whose film 'Thalaivaa' has been delayed for release in the State, on Wednesday appealed to his fans and the public to avoid watching the movie in pirated formats.
He said the entire team was trying to get the film released as soon as possible, and had sought an appointment with Chief Minister Jayalalithaa to seek government help.
The film produced by Sri Mishri Productions has released in rest of the county and across the world on August 7.
In a video message distributed to media outlets,Vijay noted that over the past few days pirated VCDs of the movie had started making their way into the State but his fan clubs and police had curbed the menace to whatever extent was possible.
He claimed that threats from unidentified groups were the main reason for the delay in the release of the film in the State.

Let's take a look at which teams are close to making the 68-team NCAA Tournament, which ones are locks, which teams will end up in the NIT, CBI or CIT tournaments and which teams are staying home. This is a very compelling basketball season and once the postseason starts, it's anybody's game. Let's take a look at where the bubble teams stand as of Tuesday, February 19, with emphasis on strength of schedule and RPI. The RPI (Ratings Percentage Index) is a tool that the selection committee will look before they select their NCAA Tournament picks.
Atlantic Coast Conference
Who's in?: Duke, Miami, Fla.
Who is on the right track?: NC State (18-7, 7-5 ACC, RPI: 22, SOS: 17) edged Virginia Tech at home in their only game of the week. They have four close losses in the ACC. A win over Duke helps but they have to a few more games.
Who needs help? North Carolina (16-8, 7-5 ACC, RPI: 30, SOS: 15) fell at Duke last week, despite playing well. Their win over Virginia was key but more big games are coming up. They need more to add to their resume' and it might once against come down to a home game against rival. Duke.....Virginia (18-7, 8-4 ACC, RPI: 80, SOS: 146) is pretty close to being a lock but their RPI is still too high. A loss at North Carolina didn't crush them as they still have Miami and Florida State on the road with Duke at home. That poor RPI could put them in a poor spot if they don't take care of business.......Maryland (18-7, 6-6 ACC; RPI: 62, SOS: 90). Not our rivals? Maryland have played Duke at home for the last time in awhile since they are moving to the Big 10 after next season and may only play them once next year. That win put them back on the bubble but they can't let down. A win over Virginia on the road at the end of the season would be huge.
Atlantic Ten Conference:
Who's in? none.
Who is on the right track? Butler (20-5, 8-3 A10, RPI: 18, SOS: 57) hasn't been quite as dominant as some people though in the A-10. A home loss to Charlotte was tough, but they have so many quality wins, they should still be in barring a collapse.
Who needs help?: La Salle (18-6, 8-3 A10, RPI: 34, SOS: 73) has three winnable games in between road games against Temple and St. Louis. A win at VCU and a a home win over Butler is big, but they still need to keep winning.......VCU (21-5, 9-2 A10, RPI: 37, SOS: 85) is very close to being a lock, but they need more quality wins. Or at least one. A home game against Butler is huge........Temple (17-8, 6-5 A10, RPI: 51, SOS: 60) is struggling in close games. A home loss to Duquesne is huge so they leave little room for error....St. Louis (19-5, 8-2 A10, RPI: 46, SOS: 91) has a home game against VCU and a trip to Butler. If they split, it puts them in good shape.......Charlotte (18-7, 6-5 A10, RPI: 57, SOS: 95) has a win at Butler which is great, but they need to take care of business and win to not rely on one win.
Big East Conference
Who's In? Louisville, Georgetown, Marquette, Syracuse.
Who is on the right track? Pittsburgh (20-7, 8-6 BE, RPI: 39, SOS: 41) just doesn't like prosperity. A terrible loss at home to Notre Dame and then at Marquette has hurt their profile and RPI. They aren't in danger unless they start losing to sub-par teams......Cincinnati (19-7, 7-6 BE, RPI: 40, SOS: 29) has good wins over Marquette, Pitt and Oregon, but they need more. They lost at home to Georgetown and wound up 1-2 on their three-game homestand. If they finish .500 in the league, that should be enough to get them in.....
Who needs help?: Notre Dame (19-5, 7-4 BE, RPI: 44, SOS: 78). Notre Dame had a strange week, probably due to the effects of their five-overtime win over Louisville two weeks ago. A 17-point loss at Providence was awful, but that was followed by a shocking win at Pittsburgh on Monday. They get some rest this week and a home game against Cincinnati would be big for both teams............Villanova (16-10, 8-6 BE, RPI: 58, SOS: 29) keeps hanging in there. A win at UConn was big but they'll likely need a win or two in the Big East Tournament. That loss to Columbia could come back and bite them......St. John's (15-10, 7-6 BE, RPI: 58, SOS: 25) is not out of it but they have a lot of work to do. Wins over Cincinnati, UConn and Notre Dame do help. If they can wind up at 11-7 with wins over Marquette and Notre Dame, that should put them in. But it's also asking a lot.
Big Ten Conference
Who's In? Indiana, Michigan, Michigan State, Wisconsin
Who's on the right track?: Minnesota (18-8, 6-7 B10, RPI: 13, SOS: 3) has a great RPI and strength of schedule. They also have 12 top-100 wins. But they've also lost 7 of their last 10 games and were crushed at Iowa..........Ohio State (18-7, 8-5 B10, RPI: 28, SOS: 22) has big wins over Michigan and Wisconsin, but they need more. Home dates against Minnesota and Michigan State are winnable and would put them in......
Who needs help? Iowa (17-9, 6-7 B10; RPI: 81, SOS: 104). Iowa beat Minnesota and Wisconsin, but they are under .500 in the league. The Minnesota win helps but their RPI is still high. They have five sub-300 RPI non-conference games which kills their SOS (strength of schedule).
Big 12 Conference
Who's In? Kansas, Kansas State
Who's on the right track?: Oklahoma State (19-5, 9-3 B12, RPI: 23 , SOS: 57) has a win over Kansas on the road and now they face them again on Wednesday. They also have Kansas State at home down the stretch. They should have enough quality wins to get in barring a collapse.
Who needs help?: Oklahoma (16-8, 7-5 B12, RPI: 17, SOS: 4) Oklahoma did beat Kansas and that could be the one that gets them in assuming they don't fall apart down the stretch. A win over rival Oklahoma State would have been huge last Saturday (loss in OT)......Baylor (15-9, 7-5 B12, RPI: 54, SOS: 27) has a 20-point loss at Kansas State but has a chance to make amends when they take on Kansas State at home and Iowa State at home....Iowa State (17-8, 7-5 B12, RPI: 50, SOS: 77) fell at overtime to Texas and they now have five games left. A big one at Baylor, but it may come down to beating Kansas at home.
Missouri Valley Conference:
Who's In? none.
Who needs help? Creighton (21-6, 10-5 MVC, RPI: 44, SOS: 103) fell out of lock status after losing three straight. Nobody saw that coming and now a BracketBusters game at Saint Mary's would now put the back in as a lock.....Wichita State (22-5, 11-4 MVC, RPI: 33, SOS: 104) has a win over Creighton and if they can beat them on the road, that would put them in.
Mountain West Conference
Who's In? New Mexico
Who's on the right track? UNLV (18-7, 6-5 MWC, RPI: 20, SOS: 22) beat New Mexico at home. But also get beat badly at Air Force, then beat San Diego State at home. They need to keep winning and to strengthen their conference record.....Colorado State (19-4, 8-2 MWC, RPI: 13, SOS: 46) beat San Diego State and then Air Force on the road. Things are looking good for the Rams who can win this league with New Mexico coming in.
Who needs help?: San Diego State (16-7, 6-5 MWC, RPI: 32, SOS: 30) has a road game at New Mexico and Boise State. They are falling off the bubble so to get back on, they need to take care of business.
Pac-12 Conference
Who's In? Arizona
Who's on the right track? Oregon (21-5, 10-3 P12, RPI: 38, SOS: 101) is very close to getting in despite not getting Dominic Artis back from injury. Wins over UCLA and UNLV on the road are solid.......UCLA (19-7, 9-4 P12, RPI: 40, SOS: 35) is a talented team and has a win over Arizona on the road and Missouri. They just need to keep winning.
Who needs help?: Colorado (17-8, 7-6 P12, RPI: 22, SOS: 11) has some quality wins including a home victory over Arizona that was huge. Losing to Arizona State at home in overtime didn't help. They can't afford to go less than .500 in the conference.....Arizona State (19-7, 8-5 P12, RPI: 72, SOS: 120) loss at Utah, but came back to win at Colorado to sweep the season series. They close with three on the road after taking on Washington and Washington State....
Southeastern Conference
Who's In? Florida
Who's on the right track? Missouri (18-7, 7-5 SEC, RPI: 35, SOS: 63) might need one more quality win to get in or win a game in the SEC Tournament. They are very close.
Who needs help? Mississippi (19-6, 8-4 SEC, RPI: 52, SOS: 115) has a chance but they aren't making things easier with just one quality win over Missouri. A winning record in the SEC isn't enough this year......Kentucky (17-8, 8-4 SEC, RPI: 45, SOS: 48) is in big trouble after losing Nerlens Noel for the season and then getting crushed at Tennessee. They don't need to do a lot to get in since they are a marquee team but without Noel, they would likely be one-and-done.
Other teams:
Who's in? Gonzaga
Belmont (18-6, 11-2 OVC, RPI: 26, SOS: 72) has just one decent win over Middle Tennessee State. It's unfortunate that Belmont's BracketBuster game is against Ohio U..... ....Memphis (22-3, 11-0 CUSA, RPI: 24, SOS: 87) just keeps winning and a road game against Xavier looms large. That's a big game for the Tigers....Middle Tennessee State (23-4, 15-1, Sun Belt, RPI; 25, SOS: 111) has a strong win over Ole Miss, which has lost some luster. They need to win out and to get to 19 wins in the league.....Louisiana Tech (23-3, 14-0 WAC, RPI: 47, SOS: 227) doesn't have a lot of quality games left. win over Utah State would be decent but they may have to win out to get the at-large. ...St. Mary's (21-5, 11-2 WCC. RPI: 50, SOS: 146) beat BYU on the road and Utah State on the road. They play Creighton in the BracketBusters. A loss at home to Gonzaga hurts since they don't have many quality games left.

The Nikon D800E DSLR is very similar to the Nikon D800, but holds far better features. Both of these camera bodies employ the FX-format CMOS sensor with 36.3 megapixels. It is equivalent to higher end medium format cameras. The D800E has Advanced Scene Recognition (91k pixel RGB) with face detection. The D800E features Nikon EXPEED 3 Image Processor, high speed data transfer with USB 3.0 connection, and an impressive 4 fps burst shot to capture moving subjects. The D800E features the optical low-pass filter for optimized sharpness. Nikon has removed the anti-aliasing properties of the filer to facilitate the sharpest images possible when shooting in RAW format. The Nikon D800E has been named by Nikon as the ideal tool for photographers who can control light, distance and their subjects to the degree where they can mitigate the occurrence of moiré.

Mortal Kombat X moves forward with a snappier version of the previous game's fighting and some cool new characters, but the story and other features around the edges feel a bit rough in spots.
The ways that Axiom Verge resembles Metroid help set up and drive home the ways that Axiom Verge is most definitely not Metroid.

Game »
consists of 2 releases.
Released Aug 20, 2001
An Armored Core is a highly advanced, modular mech, adaptable to nearly any battle situation.
Considered one of the most frequent and controversial implements of destruction in video games and real life, guns are devices that fire projectiles with explosive force.
A homing missile is a missile that locks on to and follows its target. Homing missiles are featured in lots of games, from old school to new school.
The second member of the KARASAWA family, the KARASAWA-MK2 is the successor to the WG1-KARASAWA.
A laser is a focused beam of light, invisible through the air without some other medium (such as smoke) to illuminate it. Lasers are often used in video games as part of a targeting system, or as an offensive weapon in their own right.
Mechs (or Mecha) are humanoid-like pilot driven vehicles often depicted in media as a combat machine. Early examples of Mech/Mecha in video games are often derived from early manga and anime as well as table-top games.
An explosive ordinance propelled by a rocket engine designed to blow an object to smithereens. A missile is often guided, in some way, to its target. For example; by laser, remote control, or computer/GPS.
Project Phantasma was a project designed by the Doomsday Organization.
An explosive ordinance propelled by a chemical reaction that causes a controlled explosion resulting in thrust. Rockets are usually "dumb" weapons, meaning that they are not guided. Rockets are the most powerful projectile in many games.
A length of exceptionally sharp metal with a handle, used for centuries as the go-to killing device for the human race. It's dead simple: you stick the pointy end in the thing you want to die. Or you could always slash them with the equally sharp sides. That works too.

Home » Locust Moon Comics Hosts J.G. Jones and John Arcudi Signing
Locust Moon Comics
Hailing from Northeast Philadelphia, Jordan DesJardins is what many would call a "Geek". An avid collector of both comic books and action figures, Jordan can often be seen at comic conventions or scouring the city for the latest Transformers to hit the shelves.
Sounds awesome! My local Comic Book store could learn a thing or two from yours!
John Arcudi! The Mask was a huge favourite of my ultra-violence loving youth!
Very cool. I really enjoyed this article and love reading about these kind of inimate events. Did you get anything signed?
I got my WANTED TPB signed by J.G. Jones. I got caught up in the moment and forgot to ask John Arcudi to sign my two B.P.R.D. books I had brought with me, but I've already got his signature on my copy of A God Somewhere from back at NYCC last year, so I'm okay with that.
@Blur Agreed. No local comic shops around my area would ever do something like this. It's too bad because I think it would get more traffic and boost sales tremendously.
