Carter continues torrid run as Astros rally past Athletics
Box score Those who follow the Astros online may have seen Chris Carter called "Trogdor" at some point.

Altuve's season of stealing puts him in elite Venezuelan company

Wednesday, September 25, 2013 from 6:00 PM to 8:30 PM (PDT)
Hear from ad tech industry leaders LiveRail and SET Media about the technology stack they built to address the challenge of storing and analyzing terabytes of data.Each company faced the challenge of handling exponential data growth. In addition, they required near real time response to ad hoc analytics and investigative analytics, both for internal analysts and for customerswho were accessing data.

Michael Atherton
Cricket Expert & Columnist
The end of the show
Andrew Flintoff was a scene-stealer on the pitch, says Mike Atherton, but he'll be relieved to retire.
Last Updated: 03/11/10 5:03pm
Any sadness Andrew Flintoff feels on his retirement from cricket is likely to be diluted by a sense of relief.
The decision when to call time on his career has hung over him for some time; now he has made it he can move on and enjoy his life as best he sees fit.
In the end his body could take no more. His attempts to overcome a long-standing knee injury proved he felt he still had plenty more to offer but I've always felt he should have bowed out from all forms of the game rather than just Test cricket after the 2009 Ashes.
I wrote as much at the time - and was criticised by a few for doing so - but the challenge looked too great, the hope too ambitious even for one of England's greatest scene-stealers.
Flintoff will be remembered as England's best bowler since Sir Ian Botham but, of course, it took time for him to grow to that stature.
I remember him turning up at Old Trafford as a teenager - he was tall and thin with nothing on him. He played a few games as a young kid but couldn't bowl because his back was troublesome; the potential wasn't obvious.
It was only when he started to develop and improve his fitness that I started to realise just how good he might be.
The selectors saw it too and after spells captaining the England Under 19s in 1996 and 1997 he made his Test debut against South Africa in the fourth Test at Trent Bridge in 1998.
He removed Jacques Kallis in the first innings but otherwise didn't shine immediately; like many people before him and since, it took a while for him to come to terms with international cricket.
Indeed, I remember he bagged a pair in the next Test, at Headingley, falling to that great pairing of Allan Donald and Shaun Pollock and he quickly realised that he needed to be fitter and stronger if he was to succeed at the highest level.
Even back then he thought of himself as a batting all-rounder whereas to my mind he was a better bowler.
Of all the people that have been tagged 'the next Botham' he carried the tag the best, hitting the ball hard, catching brilliantly at slip and running up to the crease aggressively and fast.
It all came together for him at the right time in the 2005 Ashes - one of the great Test series and one that will always be linked with his name.
He shook England up in the pivotal Test at Edgbaston by scoring quick, aggressive runs and removing Justin Langer and Ricky Ponting in quick succession in Australia's second innings to help set up as tense a Test finish as you could wish to see.
Flintoff also won one of the key tactical battles of the series, his duel with Adam Gilchrist - a man who too often in the past had rescued Australia just when England appeared to be in the ascendancy.
This time Flintoff had the wood on him from around the wicket and Gilchrist, who finished with a Test career average of 47, barely averaged above 20 in the series.
It is for feats such as this that Flintoff will be remembered rather than his captaincy, although he did lead England with some distinction in India in 2006.
He got the job rather by default, though, after Michael Vaughan got injured and Marcus Trescothick returned home and it all went horribly wrong in the 2006/07 Ashes series, which England lost 5-0.
He wasn't a natural captain and preferred to be one of the lads; the pedalo incident at the 2007 World Cup and his drinking exploits at Trafalgar Square both neatly fit the myth of Flintoff and neither should detract from his career as a whole.
History will regard him as one of the finest all-rounders, a player who raised his game against Australia in 2005 and again in 2009 when he could still change a game even though his influence had dwindled. His match-winning spell at Lord's and his direct hit to run out Ponting at the Oval were both inspirational.
But if England did worry about life after Flintoff, they needn't have; Andrew Strauss and Andy Flower took a decision early on in their tenure that he was finished as an international player and the side has moved on pretty seamlessly without him.
The wheel continues to turn and, while we may not see Flintoff's like again for some time, the point where England relied on him has long since passed.

NFL, Union Labor Talks Include Possible Rookie Contract Changes
Published January 14, 2010
CHANGE CANNOT COME UNILATERALLY: The league does not have the ability to unilaterally change the terms and conditions of this year's draft because the NFL CBA does not expire until March '11. But the two sides could agree to make a deal at any time or change any part of the CBA at any time. It is not clear how likely it is that the two sides would reach agreement to substantially change the terms and conditions of the '10 NFL Draft, but if they were to agree, it would be a fairly shocking development. Industry sources expect that more college underclassman may declare for this year's draft, in part to avoid a rookie wage scale in '11. Most college players, as well as player agents, have not been expecting a major change in the system in this year's draft. The implementation of a rookie wage scale is a major plank in the league's overall economic proposal, but the other major plank is for players to agree to give owners credits for costs, which would reduce the salary cap by more than 18%.
POSSIBILITY OF COMPROMISE UNCLEAR: The league is said to want the union to agree to the rookie scale, and then separately bargain the additional cost credits to the salary cap. It does not seem likely that the union would be willing to do that. It also does not seem likely that the league would agree to the union's plan, which would include the owners agreeing to extend the current deal and give up the additional cost credits, as well as other changes owners want.

Ah, yet another spoof. The legis work too hard, consider too many bills for too many problems, so let's cut their hours. Sounds logical to me! Nice try, troll. Perhaps a teabaggie rube might give you some uptake on this.

Nobody has ever said the legislature works too hard. They spend most of their time try to solve non-problems and very little time solving real problems.

Absolutely, part-time is logical and common-sense. CA use to be part-time, I believe it ended in the 60s. It would help tremendously with the pension problem. It would prevent so much crap being cranked out, and all the shmoozing with lobbyists.

text: Sense 3.6 headed to HTC Sensation variants with ICS Update Stormy Beach 6 March, 2012 3 Comments The HTC Sensation seems to be back in the news again. This time with less wonderful information. We know the HTC Sensation and its variants around the globe are slated to get Ice Cream Sandwich some time soon. A lucky few overseas users are getting a preview of the update that will inevitably be landing across the globe. While an update to ICS is a wonderful update to receive, there is new information available now that pegs the update to only include Sense 3.6, not the slimmed down and cleaner Sense 4.0. In a statement provided to recombu by HTC, they give the following clarification for this move – "HTC Sense brings a variety of new software enhancements to HTC One, some of which utilize the latest hardware innovations, meaning not all functionality can be introduced to older HTC Devices. With that said, we are looking to bring a Sense 4 software update that includes as many of the enhancements as possible to a variety of our new devices." To put that into perspective, Sense 4.0 is designed to run on the Qualcomm S4 processor and not the S3, which is what the Sensation runs on. It makes 'sense' that HTC would only want the true Sense 4.0 UI experience on newer devices rather than updating older phones. Regardless if it is hardware limitations or not, it is all about selling the latest and greatest. Those of you that were hoping to see Sense 4.0 land on your Sensation along with ICS will be slightly disappointed. While Sense 3.6 is still an improvement, you might be better off picking up Nova Launcher after the update to clean things up a bit. Source: Recombu via Phandroid Lawless_1 If Sense 4.0 is slimmed down then wouldn't it run smoother than 3.6 on the Sensation's weaker S3 processor? The way this article reads is that HTC is leading us to believe the S3 can't handle it. http://www.androidspin.com Stormy Beach According to HTC, Sense 4 uses some of the latest hardware advancements in the S4 that aren't present in the S3 processors. Doesn't mean the S3 can't handle it, the developers prove that time and time again. HTC just isn't going to dump the time in making Sense 4 for the Sensation when they really want you to buy a HTC One device. Just like Samsung saying that the Galaxy S can't handle ICS because of memory limits. In actuality it can. I have ICS on mine right now. They won't pull out TouchWiz to make the update happen. They want me to buy a new phone. It is all business.

More and more keynote speakers are beginning to rely on word of mouth marketing. Why? It gives guaranteed potential referrals and it is free. There are times that you are tasked to present your company or ideas to a group of people. It can be very challenging to put your ideas and thoughts into words that your audience will appreciate and relate to.
Below is a checklist on how you can deliver speeches just like the great keynote speakers.
1) Learn to relate with your audience. Most of the time, you are going to stand in front of people coming from different backgrounds. Look for a common ground or find a common challenge in life that they'll have to face in the future. Use that as the starting ground of your speech. Refer to that point from time to time.
2) Always review your points. When you are giving a speech or presentation, showing pictures to your participants is perfect, but what if you do not have the resources to do that? There are no visual boards that you can refer to. It helps to always review your audience on what you are talking about during your speech or presentation.
3) Learn from your boring presentations. It is normal to have boring presentations during your first few sessions. What is important is you learn from these. Take note of what makes those sessions boring. Are you committing the same mistakes over and over? If yes, you need to spend time to examine your speech and put yourself on the shoes of your audience. Ask yourself, "What would I appreciate hearing from the best keynote speakers to make things more interactive and lively?"
4) Always look professional. In giving a speech or presentation, dressing up is important because it shows that you care about your reputation and appearance. Plus, it shows your confidence and enthusiasm to present your expertise to a group of people.
5) Be confident. Many keynote speakers will tell you they have become accustomed to what they do, and that is why they are confident. Some tell themselves that they are the best in the field. Some say that they study their materials thoroughly before coming up to the stage. If you fumble every time you give a speech, here are some tips on how to avoid it:
a. Determine the reasons for fumbling. Usually, it is because of fear. However, you need to spot the real cause of your fear. For instance, it could be a fear that you are not good enough, a fear of getting negative feedback from your audience, or a fear that you are going to make mistakes.
b. Replace your fears with their polar opposites. If you are afraid of the negative feedback of the people around you, tell yourself that whatever their negative comments are, it is their right to say such things and it is none of your business. If you think that you are not good enough, remind yourself that you are blessed with different talents and skills in other aspects. If you are afraid that you might say something wrong, practice your speech and focus on what you are going to say.
c. Always think positively. Believe in yourself. Visualize yourself being a successful keynote speaker.
6) Build your momentum through being enthusiastic. Engage your audience during your speech or presentation. Ask them questions before you open your topic or crack a joke to break the ice. Creating momentum will give you a feeling of excitement and joy. Your audience will not notice annoying details during your speech if you give them a great experience to remember.
Doing all those things won't be easy. Still, it's the only way to be on par with the greatest speakers in history.
