Yankees sticking with Rafael Soriano in eighth inning setup role despite 7.84 ERA
Apr 27, 2011, 3:17 PM EDT
Rafael Soriano had another ugly outing last night, blowing an eighth-inning lead and taking a loss while allowing two runs against the White Sox.
He now has a 7.84 ERA on the season, allowing nine runs in 10.1 innings, and has already walked eight batters after issuing a grand total of just 14 free passes in 62.1 innings last year.
However, manager Joe Girardi said after the game that the Yankees will stick with Soriano as their eighth-inning setup man in front of closer Mariano Rivera:
You've got to fight your way out of it. You keep using the guys. You get them on track. I haven't lost any confidence in Rafael Soriano. This is a very good pitcher that just happened to give up a two-run homer. It's a different animal here. Some guys come in and the transition is easy. Other guys, it can be difficult. I haven't found the transition to be really difficult for him, I just think at times he hasn't thrown great this year. I haven't seen anything to tell me he can't handle it.
I tend to agree with Girardi. Soriano has been a mess so far, but ultimately having a terrible 10-inning stretch doesn't doom him for the entire season and he's been too good for too long to think things won't eventually get on track as long as he's not pitching through some kind of an injury (his velocity is down compared to 2010, but only slightly).
Not only did Soriano save 45 games with a 1.73 ERA and .163 opponents' batting average last season for the Rays, he has a 2.86 ERA in 405 career innings. This isn't some mediocre pitcher who got lucky in a flukishly great season and is now coming back to down to earth. He's one of the best, most dominant relievers of the past decade and is simply having an awful first month in New York. Or so the Yankees hope, since they've invested $35 million over three years in Soriano.

As a Red Sox fan, I am fully supportive of this move.
- uyf1950 - Apr 27, 2011 at 3:49 PM
My friend, I can understand why you would be supportive at least in the short term…and considering how Bard and particularly Jenks have performed early on this season I more then understand since as the saying goes "misery loves company".
- aceshigh11 - Apr 27, 2011 at 6:28 PM
Believe me, with our start, I'm not gloating.
I'm just looking for little bits of hope wherever I can.
- Detroit Michael - Apr 27, 2011 at 4:15 PM
I completely disagree with Craig. Let him work out his troubles in lower leverage innings. A manager shouldn't stick with a relievers who's going through a bad stretch by continuing to have him pitch in high leverage situations.
- Detroit Michael - Apr 27, 2011 at 4:15 PM
Sorry, I should have said Aaron, not Craig.
- derpdederpdederp - Apr 27, 2011 at 8:22 PM
and people said at $35mil the yankees overpaid to get this guy………………
- pisano - Apr 28, 2011 at 12:10 AM
This guy is a proven winner, he'll be in top form before too long. Every pitcher will have a rough spot along the line, but remember the cream always comes to the top.

7970 CF issues

Re: 7970 CF issues
Crossfire is usable with 2 Cards, everything also looks ridiculous compared to SLI
"Given the excellent performance displayed and Technology ZeroCore Power which removes nuisance related to multi-GPU at rest, a whole tri-GPU based Radeon HD 7970 seems to be ideal for gourmands enjoy the games on 3 screens 5760x1080, without compromising on graphics quality. Unfortunately, this is not the case, two problems arise.
The first is a lack of investment from AMD at the early establishment of profiles CrossFire X. While some developers may not be cooperative, to be sure the Steam versions may represent an additional difficulty, of course the games that support multiple APIs (DX9, DX10, DX11) require additional work. All this is true, but it is not the problem gamblers. From the time when AMD sells and promotes a multi-GPU solution is AMD to ensure that it works and quickly.
Having to wait weeks or months for some games is not acceptable
, let alone when it comes to games that affect a large number of players such as Crysis 2 or Batman Arkham City. This problem arises in bi-GPU and is growing in tri-GPU. The fact that AMD finally allows the creation of personal profiles CrossFireX is a step in the right direction, but it is insufficient. If the situation is not perfect on the side of Nvidia, these problems are less common profiles and generally resolved more quickly.
The second problem is the uneven pace of displaying images in multi-GPU, either with 2 or 3 cards, making it difficult to really enjoy the performance of these graphics systems.
Why have a system capable of computing 60 frames per second at 5760x1080 in Battlefield 3 if the flow is felt rather than 20 fps?
We do not know exactly where does this, but it seems recurrent in this resolution. Insufficient bandwidth links CrossFireX to transfer images of this size? Synchronization difficult to manage when the rendering time is much higher than the CPU processing time? A lack of work on the combination CrossFire X and surround systems? Is this an inherent limitation to multi-GPU today? Or problem can be corrected by future drivers?"

Originally written on San Francisco Giants Baseball (SF Giants... | Last updated 5/7/13
Last night didn't go as planned for the San Francisco Giants. Cliff Lee and the Phillies pumped the brakes on the Giants six game winning streak. Andrew Baggarly of CSNBayArea.com says it's worth the Giants' time to pick up the phone and inquire about a possible trade for Lee. It's not likely that the Phillies will be able to keep pace with the Braves and Nationals, so they could be interested in dumping Lee's salary and picking up some prospects in addition. Lee is making $25 million this year, and the next two years as well. He also has a club option for $27.5 million in 2016 ($12 million buyout). In his career, Lee is 4-0 at AT&T Park with a 0.84 ERA (not counting the 2010 World Series). This proves that he would be a great asset to the Giants in their rotation. We are still a couple months away from the trading deadline, but it's nice to know that Lee could be a possibility. Don't forget to go to the SF Giants Rumors Facebook page to share your thoughts on Lee as a possible ...

PULLMAN — Amid the hurly-burly of a recent Washington State scrimmage, with assistant coaches hollering instructions to their various units, came this reminder from the sideline to linebacker Ivan McLellan: "Ivan! Body language!"
Body language? You've got to read your keys, shed blocks, employ a rip move in pursuit of the quarterback, and somebody is worried about ... body language?
Believe it. The Cougars' long climb back to respectability is laced with all sorts of elements, some of which have as much to do with attitude as they do athleticism.
"We don't like slouchers at Washington State," says linebackers coach Paul Volero.
The concept is especially relevant to a defense that just might be sneaky-good in 2013.
"When that offense gets a 60-yard bomb down the field, how are you going to respond?" linebacker Darryl Monroe asked rhetorically. "Are you going to walk with your head down or your chest up? That's what our coaches are trying to get across."
It would take a psychologist to parse whether poor body language naturally accompanies a setback on the field, or whether, in the case of the Cougars — scarred by several losing seasons of monstrous proportions — it's an inevitable here-we-go-again response.
One thing is clear, though. Mike Leach's first season at WSU was marked by some wild inconsistency, and it's not unreasonable to assume that some of that rose from a fragile mental state. Ask coordinator Mike Breske how much of the Cougars' defensive future lies between the ears, and he says, "About 90 percent."
Thus, says Breske, the prescription: "Go to the next play. Don't let it linger. We haven't reached that point yet where we're just consistently going to the next play."
Gnaw on these numbers and weigh whether they seem reflective of a 3-9 team a year ago: The Cougars held Stanford's career-leading rusher, Stepfan Taylor, to 58 yards on 21 carries. Washington's Bishop Sankey labored to gain 84 yards on 26 tries.
WSU's run defense, No. 6 in the Pac-12, actually finished ahead of both UCLA and USC. Its 4 yards-per-carry yield tied for third-best.
But there were those mood swings. A week after the Cougars had a first-and-goal at league champ Stanford, down a touchdown in the last minute, they got bum-rushed at Utah, 49-6.
"I think we need to be careful not to hear all the noise, about how many years we've had losing seasons and stuff," says defensive end Logan Mayes. "Each unit needs to really focus on what it needs to do to win and not look at the other units."
He cites the Utah collapse, when the defense started out all right, "kind of watched the offense a little too much, kind of got discouraged and didn't think about doing our job."
Five players on the probable front seven were full-time starters for the first time last year, which should augur improvement — maybe quantum advancement — from 2012. And wouldn't it be an ironic twist if it was the defense that provided the symbolic takeoff to the Leach regime?
The defense will operate in Breske's "Fire Zone" scheme, featuring an odd front (convertible to a 4-3 when the "Buck" linebacker plays down), with lots of movement by the linemen and blitzing from linebackers.
"We're movement-happy," says Breske. "We've got to be able to move the pocket."
Linemen Xavier Cooper, Junior Gauta and Toni Pole combined for 22.5 tackles for loss last year. When the defense is operating well, you see things like the pressure-caused interception by Pole that almost ended the Apple Cup in overtime.
"Coach Joe (line assistant Joe Salavea) says we have to stop the run on the way to the quarterback this year," says Cooper. "That's our philosophy."
Monroe, the middle linebacker, could be in for a big year if the line performs. He's flanked by two 'backers who debuted as starters last year, Cyrus Coen and Justin Sagote.
The wild card is 6-foot-4, 290-pound Destiny Vaeao, moved from defensive end to Buck linebacker, the spot occupied last year by Travis Long. The position requires down line and coverage skills, and while Vaeao is raw on pass drops, his coaches seem willing to ride out the adjustment.
After a recent scrimmage, Leach waxed on about Vaeao, saying, "He's a big, old monstrous guy. He obviously can rush the passer and stop the run."
It's the secondary, termed candidly by Breske not long ago "our Achilles," where WSU's defensive fortunes could be written. Safety Deone Bucannon was second-team all-Pac-12 a year ago, but the unit seemed to backslide overall, allowing 262.7 passing yards per game, 10th in the Pac-12. Cornerback Damante Horton's four career interceptions came in 2011, and at the other corner, Nolan Washington's starts dipped from 12 in 2010 to seven in 2011 to three last year.
"We've got to get more of a fierce, competitive personality," says Breske, talking secondary.
If there's a fount of self-assuredness on the unit, it's up front.
"The D-line does a great job; they walk around with a real sense of confidence in themselves and their ability to play," says offensive-line coach Clay McGuire. "I think our O-line sees that says, 'If they can do it, why not us?' "
Why not us? It might be a suitable mantra for the WSU defense.

You have to already be in jail or prison to be "PC'd". Usually the inmate asks for it. On rare occasions the institution will do if they're aware that the inmate is in danger from people inside. A nutjob bragging about being a pro fighter in there would be courting trouble. The officers might PC such a case to head off that trouble.

Someone came to the UG forum with their concerns about Mr. Younossi. According to a couple of comments on that thread, he's living in Miami now.
He's been handing out business cards. This is one.

Political realism, or Realpolitik, refers to politics or diplomacy with an emphasis on practical realities over ideological concepts. Focusing on considerations of power without regard to ideals, friendships, or altruism, Realpolitik tends to function with a non-fixed set of rules and a focus on short-term accomplishments. It is often invoked negatively to describe methods that are coercive or amoral. The term originated in the 19th century to describe actions between European nations to preserve a balance of power. A 20th century example of Realpolitik is Richard Nixon's diplomacy with the People's Republic of China. The administration deemed it beneficial for the U.S. to advance relations with China despite strong anti-communist beliefs and an overall strategy of containment.

Some of you may recall me introducing these two little sister Leopard Cat cubs previously in the posts titled Miniature Leopard as well as Dazed & Confused. This photo was taken about two weeks ago, which was about a week after the last one I showed you, and as you can see, both kittens have now mastered the art of running!
My good friend Khun Nok, who works at Khao Kheow Open Zoo's animal hospital, as always tried her best to help me capture the portraits I wanted, but the cubs had other plans! Each time Khun Nok attempted to place the sisters at the distance I wanted them from the place I was lying, for some reason off they shot in an eastward direction; not that there was anything of any particular interest for them over there, they just seemed to be strangely drawn that way.
Seeing my friend running after them, then picking them up and bringing them back again three or four times, a couple of thoughts dawned on me: it didn't seem quite fair that I was letting her do all the running about, and it would probably be a lot better if on her next trip back I simply moved eastward myself and lay down again in preparation for cub's next release in the hope they'd run straight at me!
Although this idea worked a charm, for all the shots I fired off, only a handful were well enough focused for me to work with, and of those this is my favourite, as I managed to capture both sisters in the same frame without them overlapping. While I would love for you all to have seen them in action like this delightful as they were, hopefully you will at least be able to enjoy this single frame.
Thanks for all your kind words on yesterday's Clouded Leopard cub, and wishing you all a wonderful week ahead :^)

Simple to Operate
You don't have to be an expert to use this Havahart® humane mouse trap. Its design allows trappers of all experience levels to capture, transport, and release small animals with ease.

Safe for You and the Animal
A live trap is a humane tool for eliminating these tiny varmints from your home or property, and Havahart® makes the process safe for both you and the animal.
For You: Solid doors and hand guards protect you from contact with a trapped animal.
For the Animal: A strong door lock keeps the animal safely inside the cage, while smooth, rolled internal trap edges prevent injuries during transport.
A Two-Door Trap is Effective and Versatile
This two-door live mouse trap allows you to create a clear path from one end of the cage to the other. This clear line of sight is reassuring to the animal and increases your odds of a catch. Place a two-door trap against a wall or along an animal's path in order to capture it as it travels from either direction. Or choose to set the trap with only one door open, and place it in front of an entryway to catch mice, chipmunks or voles as they venture inside.
Havahart® Traps are Built to Last
Havahart® builds traps with premium materials intended to endure harsh weather and unpredictable critters. This chipmunk and mouse cage trap is made with galvanized steel for optimum resistance against rust and corrosion, ensuring many uses and a long trap life.

1Havahart® X-Small 2-Door Trap is rated out of 5 by 83.Rated 5 out of 5 by Trogonwisperer from Great even without bait! It's been about a month since I purchased my traps, and I have to say I love them. I set them out on the trails the mice and other rodents use the day I received them no bait. By that evening I had filled all the traps, and had to reset. I placed them back in the same locations, again without bait, by morning they had all been triggered. Once again all three contained occupents. So far I have removed over a dozen rodents and still catching more. I have only used them outside where the holes and trails are very easy to find.Date published: 2015-07-01Rated 4 out of 5 by Fludoc from Works most of the time Have two different traps. Even split which one catches mice. So far most of the time the Havahart works but one out of 4 times the mice have a nice treat, trip the trap and leave.Date published: 2015-06-30Rated 5 out of 5 by Dave1959 from Works perfectly as always Bought the mini's for the mice eating all the bird seed. Caught and released the little fellers in a local green belt near the house. They didn't seem to mind and got a free meal of dog kibbleDate published: 2015-06-28Rated 5 out of 5 by MouseMomma from Excellent item I bought the 'buy 2 get 1 free' even though I only needed 1. My Mom still has 1 from long ago (longer than I can remember) and I had to borrow it to catch the wild mice getting into my home. Then she was having the same problem so needed it back. I tried the other 'live mouse catchers' out there,, none worked, the mice always got out somehow. So I decided to pay the higher price and get my own Hav-A-Heart traps! Nothing can compare to them!!!!! They do not harm the mouse, and it is very easy to release the wild mouse far from my home. And, since I breed my own mice for Show & Pets, it is great for the occasional smart one that gets loose, or a Hopper getting loose. I use Honey Peanut Butter and sprinkle a few millet seeds onto the peanut butter,, Never fails to catch a mouse! But don't forget to place a paper towel under the trap, as mice will potty, and it helps with the clean-up! I highly recommend this product for all live catching of any type of critter you do not want to harm, so it can be released into a more proper home.Date published: 2015-06-18Rated 5 out of 5 by Wendy from Have a heart, use Havahart My cats like to bring me presents and sometimes these presents take up residence in my home. I don't like to hurt the poor little creatures. It's not their fault some carnivore caught them and relocated them. So, I prefer to catch them and relocate them back to their more natural environment. These little traps are the perfect solution. Problem solved!Date published: 2015-06-06Rated 5 out of 5 by Heather74 from Great product We bought three traps at a great price. They work well. So far, we have caught and released five mice. I really recommend these traps. They are an excellent and humane way to get rid of your mouse problem.Date published: 2015-06-03Rated 4 out of 5 by KimC from It worked! Very sensitive but it did the job and didn't hurt the chipmunk. He/she is now safely relocated to a forest preserve instead of the hole in front of the bush at my entryway!Date published: 2015-06-02Rated 5 out of 5 by Robin from Good buying experience. An effective trap, delivered promptly. Thank you. I would order from you again.Date published: 2015-06-01
Can I set this trap as a 1-door trap?Yes, watch the "how to set" video.Date published: 2015-06-11
I bought a double door Havahart, so I am confused as to which side the bait should be plced to cause the trap to trip.When setting a two door trap, we have found the best bait placement is on the trigger pan itself. Be sure to use a small amount of bait, to ensure that the sensitivity of the trap is not affected.Date published: 2015-05-21
Model 1020 vs 1025 for catching rats. What one is best?Both traps are recommended for rats. The 1020 measures 10" x 3" x 3" and the 1025 measures 18" x 5" x 5".Date published: 2015-05-15
Where should I place the bait in my trap?The bait should be placed in a way that requires the animal to enter the trap and step on the trigger plate in order to reach it. For this model, it's best to place the bait directly on the trip plate before you set it. If you can, create a trail of bait from one end of the trap to the other to lead the animal through. For more baiting tips, read How to Bait.Date published: 2015-06-05
What kind of bait should I use for my trap?Your ideal bait will depend on which animal you wish to capture. Visit our How To section to learn about bait options for each target animal.Date published: 2015-06-05
What is the benefit of a 2-door trap versus a 1-door trap?If used as directed, 1-door traps and 2-door traps are equally effective. Whether you purchase a 1 or 2-door trap is a matter of preference. Some trappers prefer to use 2-door traps, as an animal might be more confident in entering the cage if it can see through to the other side. Others prefer to use 1-door traps because they are easier to bait; since the back end is closed, you can place the bait beyond the trigger plate ensuring that the animal walks further into the trap before reaching it.Regardless of your preference, Havahart® offers both one-door and two-door traps to satisfy all consumers.Date published: 2015-06-05
What is the warranty on this Havahart® Live Animal Trap?All Havahart® Live Animal Traps are covered by a 1-year manufacturer's warranty. In the rare case of a manufacturing defect or damage during shipping, Havahart® will replace your trap, free of charge, for up to one year from the date of purchase.

It was the report that made JB grab his crotch a little tighter during his dance routine…
Following shocking and gruelsome threats against Justin Bieber by convicted killer and rapist Dana Martin, Justin Bieber's team is speaking up in response. From the sound of it, Bieber's camp is a little shaken, but nonetheless has the situation under control.
Melissa Victor, Justin's publicist, tells Hollyscoop that fans need not worry moving forward about their leader's well being.
"We take every precaution to protect and insure the safety of Justin and his fans," says Victor.
As we previously reported, Martin—a disturbed fan with a tattoo of the boy wonder on his leg—summoned the help of fellow inmates Mark Staake and his nephew Tanner Ruane as hitmen while stationed in a prison near Las Cruces, New Mexico. The attempted assassination was scheduled to go down at Madison Square Garden where Justin was recently performing.
But Martin put a stop to the hit before the two goons could go through with it. He confessed the plan to authorities, and both Staake and Ruane were apprehended before they could make it to MSG. Tanner had garden sheers on him at the time...Ouch!
According to reports, Martin is serving two life sentences for raping and killing a 15-year-old girl in Vermont in 2000.

Elvis' Airplanes are Now Departing Graceland for...Your Backyard?
One of the USA's most visited private homes is losing its most famous lawn ornaments.
Say so long to the two private jets in the side yard of Elvis' Graceland; both airplanes lost the battle to stay their groundwhich we reported on back in July, 2014and are already on the auction block.
Despite Priscilla's protests, Elvis Presley Enterprises (operators of Graceland) are evicting the planes, which no longer fly but do admit visitors for an additional fee. Walking through the Lisa Marie (a Convair 880) and Hound Dog II (a Lockheed JetStar) was our favorite part of making it to Graceland in Memphis.

Throwback Thursday: The Awesome Airplane Coach Lounges of the 1970s
Sure, we love all the speed and comfort of modern travel, but it didn't get that way overnight. Every Thursday, we're going to take a look back at travel the way it used to be, whether that's decades or centuries ago. This is Throwback Thursday, travel edition.
Before airlines considered the economy cabin worthy of nothing more than a seat 18" wide and about 8 peanuts as a complimentary snack, it used to be they would reward any passenger flying one of their newest planes with an in-flight lounge experience.
The onboard First Class lounges of the 1970s are things of legend, of course, but what about coach? On selected aircraft, they too enjoyed a dedicated space for enjoying in-flight diversions like gossiping, having a cocktail, card-playing and, in the case of American Airlines' 747-100 Coach Lounge, even piano-playing.

Airbus' New Airplane Concept is a 'Flying Doughnut.' Yum.
Want to ride in a flying saucer?
Me neither. Those probes are cold.
But here's something close to it, and kind of cool. Airbus has filed a patent for a new plane design that has a UFO-style look to it. The application dubs the invention as an "Aircraft Including a Passenger Cabin Extending Around a Space Defined Outside the Cabin and Inside the Aircraft." Shorter version: a plane where passengers are seated in concentric circles. Or as one publication put, as "flying doughnuts."

Video Interlude: The Airbus A380 as a Canvas for Light Projection Artwork
When it comes right down to it, all aircraft are works of art. One particular masterpiece of recent is the super-jumbo A380, with its double-decker curves and four-engine strength. British Airways is particularly enthralled with their sparkling new A380s and thus created a piece of video art in homage to it.
The British carrier has swapped canvas for fuselage to celebrate their newest non-stop route between London-Heathrow and Singapore with a stunning video that's right out of the cool 4D trend of late. You knowwhen a projection on a building gives the illusion of it coming alive right before your very eyes.

Airbnb in a Plane! KLM Opens Contest for Airplane Sleepovers at Amsterdam Airport
If you only do one thing today, let it be entering KLM's ingenious contest to travel to Amsterdam and have a sleepover inside their recently retired MD-11 airplane.
From now through November 20, KLM is asking all fans of the three-holer aircraft to book it for an overnight stay, as they've cleared out all the typical airplane seats in favor of cozy apartment-style furnishings.
The "Airplane Apartment" sports a master bedroom with king-size bed, a second bedroom with two beds, kitchen, living area, 8 bathrooms, WiFi, a cockpit, and 116 windows. There'll be one winner for each of the three nights, and each winner may bring up to three friends/family along for a total occupancy of 4 people in the Airplane Apartment. But wait, there's more! Winners will also receive international roundtrip flights on KLM to reach Amsterdam, and a 500 EUR Airbnb gift card.

This is the Fastest Way to Board a Plane. Good Luck Getting People to Cooperate.
"This isn't rocket science," said just about everyone who has ever waited an interminably long time to board a plane.
It's not. Astrophysics on the other hand, might help.
At least if you trust Jason Steffen, an astrophysicist at Northwestern University, who thinks that he has come up with the #flawless, fastest way to get airplane passengers boarded. "Wired" magazine just detailed Steffen's system, which he developed several years ago — though it continues to fall on deaf ears. Steffen says that while the traditional back-to-front order of operations makes sense on its face, it fails to account for the fact that bottlenecks will still occur as passengers try to hoist their bags into overheads at the same time.

Stories to Make You Feel Boring: Man Builds Airplane in His Extra Bedroom
Thank you, local news station, for bringing us a truly inspiring tale of American ingenuity.
Because having a woodshop in your garage is totally #BasicBitch, suburban Michigan man Andy Millin spent 11 years of his life building his own operational airplane, not in a hangar but inside his house. Millin, who wasn't even a pilot at the time (read that again, let it sink in) built everything from scratch, wings to fuselage to engine, according to WWMT Newschannel 3, which recently profiled Millin's tale. But wait, there's more.
"Homebuilt" planes are actually more common than you'd expect, but the special bit of Millin's construction is that he and his buddy/partner-in-insanity built an addition to his house, which served as their hangar/workshop. Today that space has been converted to a master bedroom, a condition of Millin's crafty wife, who inadvertently inspired this whole plan when she booked her husband a birthday ride on a B-17 back in 1995.

A380 Service to Chicago O'Hare May Actually Happen
Make way for some super-jumbo aircraft in the heartland, since the folks over at Chicago's O'Hare Airport are ready to spend some cash to be able to allow Airbus A380s to pull up to its terminals.
ORD would be the last of the top 5 busiest U.S. airports to upgrade facilities for the double-decker airplane, and this is great news not only for travelers, but for a few airlines who have already pinned Chicago on their route map.
The massive airplane will head on over to Terminal 5, and the 34 airlines who call it home in Chicago have agreed to open up their wallets and cough up the $1 million for the preliminary designs for the airport upgrades. This comes after O'Hare's newest runway, (10C and 28C) along with nearby taxi route, was rated to accommodate the heavy aircraft.

Hey, Good Looking: American Airlines' First 787 Revealed
How you doing? That's what we'd like to say to American Airlines' brand new Boeing 787. It just rolled out of the hangar complete with the airline's new livery on the new plane, and we have to say that it looks pretty darn snazzy.
Right now the only place you can check it out is over in Everett, Washington, but if all goes according to plan it'll be in the hands of the pilots and people over at American Airlines before the end of the year.

2014 has been a huge, huuuuuge year for airline anniversaries, and at the top of the list is Delta's 85th Anniversary of passenger service, which they celebrated with a reopening of their aviation museum at Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport.
Why a re-opening? Well, as it goes with museums, sometimes exhibits need polishing and the Delta Flight Museum had originally opened back in 1995. It's so much more than spit-shining some cases, however; an entire new aircraft was waiting to be added to the permanent collection.
Now visitors can finally get up close with the Boeing 767 "Spirit of Delta," which was actually purchased by donations totaling $30 million from Delta employees. This plane almost single-handedly allowed Delta to weather the tough economic times of the early 1980s and begin modernizing their fleet. She flew for 23 years and is now half time capsule, half museum-within-in-a-museum, and completely open for visitors to tour.

Another Day, Another Wave of Airport Ebola Panic
Boy this whole Ebola outbreak thing has been a real boon for travel journalism, eh? Nary a day goes by without an airport getting locked down because some nurse has a fever, or a plane getting emptied because some idiot makes a joke about feeling sick, or a state getting quarantined because some politician was psychologically scarred by watching Outbreak on a date in the '90s. We can't remember the last time there were so many stories about airports and airplanes and travel politics. It's really just a delight.
Seriously though, the only thing less fun than having Ebola is watching global commercial aviation try to scramble to deal with Ebola. People are not always very bright.

Police arrest Sammamish man for Issaquah High School shooter hoax
January 10, 2013
NEW — 10 a.m. Jan. 10, 2013
Issaquah police arrested a student Wednesday for falsely reporting a shooter on the Issaquah High School campus, prompting a swift police response and lockdowns at Issaquah High and other nearby schools.
Investigators said the 18-year-old Sammamish man, a student at Issaquah High, reported seeing a man with a gun in the school's upper parking lot at about 10:05 a.m. Police rushed to the scene to investigate and provide security at Issaquah High and nearby campuses.
Meanwhile, school administrators placed the school and Tiger Mountain Community High, Issaquah Middle and Clark Elementary Schools on lockdown.
Hoax prompts lockdown at downtown Issaquah schools
January 9, 2013
NEW — 12:30 p.m. Jan. 9, 2013
School administrators put Issaquah High and Tiger Mountain Community High schools into lockdown Wednesday, and Clark Elementary and Issaquah Middle schools into modified lockdown, after a student made a false report about a threat.
The hoax led police presence at Issaquah High as administrators and investigators attempted to determine the credibility of the information.
In a lockdown, students remain inside classrooms with the doors locked. The modified lockdown at Clark Elementary and Issaquah Middle meant students had to stay inside school buildings.
The lockdown at Issaquah High and Tiger Mountain Community High lasted for a few minutes.
Cold Case Unit's end could leave boy's disappearance unsolved
December 18, 2012
Funding trouble leads sheriff's office to disband program
In May 1968, 8-year-old David Adams disappeared from Tiger Mountain as he walked home for dinner.
Searchers combed Issaquah and the surrounding area in the days ahead, as the mystery attracted attention from throughout the Pacific Northwest. The search brought as many as 1,000 people to Issaquah, but detectives and volunteers found no signs of David.
The case file sat on a shelf at the King County Sheriff's Office for 41 years until early 2009, after the agency received a federal grant and launched a renewed push to solve several cold cases.
Despite successes in solving other years-old cases, grant funding is gone and county dollars to continue the program from September to December since evaporated.
Boundary change shifts 175 students from Grand Ridge to Clark
December 4, 2012
When the first day of school comes next fall, 175 students who had gone to Grand Ridge Elementary School will say "hello" to Clark Elementary School.
The move was announced Nov. 19 as part of a boundary shift that will help alleviate overcrowding at Grand Ridge. Additionally, all kindergartners will go to Challenger and Endeavour elementary schools.
Located in the continually expanding Issaquah Highlands, Grand Ridge has the capacity for about 600 students, according to Jake Kuper, CFO for the Issaquah School District. With the use of portable classrooms, the capacity jumps to 800.
Boundary decision shifts 175 students from Grand Ridge to Clark
November 29, 2012
NEW — 6 a.m. Nov. 29, 2012
When the first day of school comes next fall, 175 students will bid farewell to Grand Ridge Elementary School and say hello to Clark Elementary School.
The move was announced Nov. 19 as part of a boundary shift that will help alleviate crowding at Grand Ridge. Along with the change, all Grand Ridge kindergartners will be housed next year at Challenger and Endeavour elementary schools.
Located in the continually expanding Issaquah Highlands, Grand Ridge has the capacity for about 600 students, according to Jake Kuper, chief financial officer for the Issaquah School District. With the use of portable classrooms, the capacity jumps to 800.
Right now, the school has 879 full-time students and, without the boundary shift, would have 987 full-time students next year. The changes bring that attendance number to 730 for next year.
Report tracks rise in drug-induced deaths, decline in traffic fatalities
November 20, 2012
Investigators from the King County Medical Examiner's Office probed 22 deaths in and just outside Issaquah last year, including the suspect's death in a fatal shootout at Clark Elementary School.
Report: Investigators probed 22 Issaquah deaths in 2011
November 15, 2012
NEW — 1 p.m. Nov. 15, 2012
Investigators from the King County Medical Examiner's Office probed 22 deaths in Issaquah last year, including the suspect's death in a fatal shootout at Clark Elementary School.
The information comes from the agency's annual report on suspicious, sudden, unexpected and violent deaths in King County. In 2011, King County experienced the fewest homicides and traffic deaths in more than a decade, even as drug-induced deaths increased.
The medical examiner's office assumed jurisdiction last year in more than 2,000 deaths — 926 natural deaths, 594 accidental deaths, 265 suicides, 135 traffic accident deaths, 54 homicides and 62 deaths due to undetermined causes.
The tally in Issaquah included 11 accidental deaths, seven suicides, two traffic accident deaths, one homicide and one death due to undetermined causes.
Skyline High School closes for day due to online shooting threat
September 25, 2012
Skyline High School closed Sept. 20, after a still-unidentified online bulletin board user threatened to unleash a Columbine-style attack and shoot students on campus.
Investigation into Skyline threat continues as attendance drops elsewhere
September 20, 2012
UPDATED — 5 p.m. Sept. 20, 2012
Police continue to investigate a shooting threat against students at Skyline High School, as attendance at other Issaquah School District campuses — particularly Sammamish Plateau schools near Skyline — declined Thursday.
District administrators announced a decision late Wednesday to close Skyline after a threat made online targeted the school for a mass shooting. The district kept all other schools open.
Skyline also canceled all extracurricular activities and school athletics events scheduled for Thursday.
Sammamish Police Administrative Sgt. Jessica Sullivan said police continue to follow several leads on the identity of the user behind the threat posted Wednesday on the online bulletin board 4chan. Investigators have not yet been able to determine if the user is a Skyline student.
Students needed to star in 'The Sound of Music'
September 11, 2012
Students from Clark, Sunset, Issaquah Valley and Grand Ridge elementary schools, as well as those who attend Pacific Cascade and Issaquah middle schools, are invited to audition for the upcoming production of "The Sound of Music."
The musical, being produced by Issaquah High School, is looking to fill five Von Trapp children roles with students from feeder schools.
Auditions for younger children are scheduled for 3:30 p.m. Sept. 12 in the choir room at Issaquah High and should last one to two hours. High school student auditions will be at 2:30 p.m. Sept. 11 and could take more than three hours.

Picture: Lea Black and Queen Latifah attends Lea & Roy Black Present the Black's Annual Gala 2012 - Arrivals at Fontainebleau Miami Beach. Miami Beach, Florida...
Rapper-turned-actress Queen Latifah is moving forward with plans to adopt a child, revealing she's "working on" becoming a mother.
The Chicago star, real name Dana Owens, has previously spoken of her desire to enter parenthood, claiming she first became interested in adoption as a teenager.
Latifah has been giving the matter some serious thought of late and, during an interview on U.S. talk show The View on Wednesday (11Jul12), the star hinted that she had already started the lengthy process.
When asked by co-host Barbara Walters if she was serious about adoption, she replied, "I'm actually kind of working on that."
Latifah admitted she had been inspired to act after watching a moving TV movie, adding, "I think I saw one of those specials... you know those movies of the week. And it was like... I just always wanted to bring a child home."
She then joked, "So if you got a kid that you don't (want)... Just give me a year - let me set up camp and send me the kid!"
The 42 year old, who has always refused to comment on speculation about her sexuality, was recently forced to dismiss claims she had 'come out' as a lesbian after performing at a gay pride event in California in May (12).
She said, "That definitely wasn't the case. I've never dealt with the question of my personal life in public. It's just not gonna happen."

Driver in LA hit-run turns herself in
LOS ANGELES - LOS ANGELES (AP) - The driver of the car that struck and killed a 19-year-old woman and injured a 37-year-old woman and 14-year-old girl as they crossed a street in the Boyle Heights area of Los Angeles has turned herself in.
Carol Eleana Vega of Huntington Park surrendered and was booked Saturday, according to a news release from the Los Angeles Police Department.
Investigators say the 29-year-old Vega was behind the wheel of her 1993 Chrysler Concord at the time of Friday night's hit-and-run. The car sped away after the crash.
The three victims were taken to County-USC Medical Center, where Guadalupe Colmenares was pronounced dead.
Rita Colmenares, 37, was taken to the hospital in critical condition along with her 14-year-old daughter, who suffered lacerations.

120 Players You Need To
Oregon LB Casey Matthews
By Richard Cirminiello
Who is Casey Matthews?
… The fifth of five children, he's the newest member of the Matthews
clan to be making plays in the Pac-10 and laying the foundation for
a possible career in the NFL. After getting a taste of action as a
true freshman, he became an important part of Nick Aliotti's defense
a year ago, breaking into the lineup and finishing third on the team
with 13 stops behind the line. With DE Nick Reed and defensive backs
Patrick Chung and Jairus Byrd now gone, he'll be asked to play an
even larger role in the upcoming season. Matthews' pedigree is
obvious to everyone who watches his film. Well-coached and rarely
out of position, he consistently puts himself in the best possible
place to make stops. When you combine those intangibles with good
speed and athleticism, the Oregon defense has a young linebacker
who's ready to make a strong push up the Pac-10 pecking order in
Casey Matthews's best game so
far was … last Oct. 4 versus USC. Matthews grew up watching USC
and understanding the connection with his family, so his first game
at the Coliseum had a little extra special meaning. He also played
real well with his older brother on the other sideline and his
family in attendance, making eight tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss,
and a sack. Why you
should care about Matthews? … His best football is ahead of him.
In general, the Matthews men tend to reach their physical peak late,
and Casey is no exception. He's just now beginning to blossom
physically, which bodes well for his final two years in Eugene.
After playing regularly as a true freshman and really taking flight
as a sophomore, he could finish his junior year with All-Pac-10
Positives about Matthews … At 6-2 and 235 pounds, Matthews has
decent size to go along with his great athleticism, but his greatest
attribute has no measurement. He's a naturally instinctive player,
who can get to the right spot as fast as any Duck on the roster.
Fundamentally sound, he diagnoses plays well and has a knack for
filling the proper lane, a couple of keys to being a successful
inside linebacker.
Negatives about Matthews
… More than anything else, Matthews hopes to improve his top-end
speed and get a little stronger over the next two seasons. Although
he's headed in the right direction, he still needs to add a few more
pounds of muscle in order to handle the rigors of being an
every-down player in the Pac-10.
A cool thing about Casey
Matthews you probably didn't know … He comes from a long line of
successful athletes, including a grandfather (Clay), father (Clay),
uncle (Bruce), and brother (Clay), who've either played in the pros,
or, in the case of his brother, is about begin a career in the NFL.
Career Statistics
2007: 18 tackles, four tackles for loss, and a sack2008: 67
tackles, 13 tackles for loss, and two sacks

Who to have in the room for delivery?
Comments (8)
If your ex would cause you more stress, it should not be him. Do you have a good friend that would be willing to be with you? The other option would be to hire a doula (birthing coach). A doula is someone who has been at many child births, so would know how to support you well. Also, as a benefit, women who hire doulas are less likely to require intervention in child birth or have a c-section.

Sorry your baby's father is not dependable. If he will cause you more stress than support I definitely would wait to tell him.
Also, don't count your mom out. When I had DS my dad was dying of esophageal cancer but those grandbabies gave him energy like nothing else. Your mom may be able to be with you but I think someone else in addition is a good idea just in case.
I am sorry you can't count on your ex, and I understand not wanting him there. I wouldn't even tell him when you go into labor. As for who to bring, you have to consider who in your life will support you best. Your mom may be ill, but don't count her out. I like PP's idea of hiring a doula if nothing else works. Good luck.
I would ask him if he wants to know when you are in labor or after the baby is already here?
Caitlyn & Daniel married on 7/28/12 <3
Callie Rebecca born 7/19/13
My only suggestion other than what's above is to consider hiring a doula. You could still have someone else you know in the room but the doula would be there just for you. She helps with positions, massage, moral support, or even just bringing you drinks and comfort items if that's all you need. I'm in Colorado and we have an "Affordable Doula Network" where the cost ranges from $1-$300 if cost is an issue. Some of the ladies are new and working on their certification and some are very experienced and work with ADN clients once or twice a year. I'd definitely look into it and see what is available in your state that way if your mom is too sick and your x is being a douche you will know that someone is there to help you throughout your labor and pre and postpartum too. Good luck!

SEC Game of
the Week
Tennessee 27 ... South Carolina 24 OT
Tennessee overcame a South Carolina comeback by forcing
overtime on a 48-yard Daniel Lincoln field goal, that was pushed
back five yards after a Vol false start penalty that ended up
bailing out a missed kick. Lincoln nailed his 27-yard attempt in
overtime, South Carolina's Ryan Succop missed his 40-yard attempt
wide right, and the Vols escaped. Tennessee had a 21-0 first half
lead on short runs from Arian Foster and Montario Hardesty, and a
five-yard Josh Briscoe catch, but South Carolina owned the second
half, as Blake Mitchell, in for Chris Smelley, ran for a score and
threw an eight-yard touchdown pass to Kenny McKinley, to go along
with a 29-yard Cory Boyd scoring dash. South Carolina outgained
Tennessee 501 yards to 317.
Player of
the Week
Georgia RB
Knowshown Moreno ran 33 times for 188 yards and three touchdowns in
the win over Florida.
Conference Roundup
… Didn't Play This Week
Arkansas … With two straight easy
wins after the tough loss to Auburn, the
Hogs appear to be back on track going
into a tough final month. Getting Marcus
Monk back should help the passing game
immeasurably, while the running attack
keeps getting production from anyone who
wants to run the ball. Is Nathan Emert
going to get more of a chance under
center? It'll be interesting to see how
the quarterback situation progresses as
the year finishes up. Yes, blasting
Florida International is great for the
confidence, but beating South Carolina
next week would change the season
Auburn … Auburn didn't do
anything fancy against Ole Miss, using
the running game and good defense to win
without a problem. Considering the way
the Tigers lost to LSU last week, the
coaching staff kept things simple, and
it worked. With Tennessee Tech ahead,
now everyone can rest up for the big
finishing kick against Georgia and
Alabama. With the way the defense is
getting into the backfield, there
shouldn't be a problem letting down for
a week.
Florida … Tim Tebow is hurt. The
Gators might have put up 30 points on
Georgia, but seven came from the
defense, and the offense wasn't the same
with Tebow getting 13 carries late.
Percy Harvin was used more as a runner,
but the big problem was Kestahn Moore's
fumbling. Urban Meyer stopped using him,
and then the overall options became
severely limited. Once again, the
secondary struggled, and it's going to
be tested the rest of the year until it
proves it can consistently stop the deep
Georgia … It might be easy to
dismiss the team's on-field celebration
after the first touchdown against
Florida as a goofy gimmick, but it threw
down the gauntlet and appeared to give
the Dawgs an attitude that the Gators
couldn't stop. The defensive line was
terrific, teeing off on Tim Tebow and
rarely letting him get any room to move.
The offensive line had one of its best
games all season long. Knowshown Moreno
might have been the star of the game,
but this might have been the coming out
party for Matthew Stafford on a big-time
scale. He only threw one miserably bad
pick, and was brilliant on his three
touchdown passes. Now the key will be to
keep this fire. It's one thing to rock
Florida. It'll be another to show up
against a good Troy team (don't laugh)
next week.
Kentucky … Excuses time. After
playing LSU and Florida, Kentucky
couldn't be mentally and physically up
for dealing with Mississippi State. It
showed. The offensive line got shoved
around by the MSU defensive front, while
the defense didn't do much to help the
cause after the O gave up six turnovers.
Even the special teams got involved with
the disaster with a botched punt
attempt. Now things get tough again,
going on the road to face Vanderbilt and
Georgia before dealing with Tennessee.
Andre Woodson might be out of the
Heisman race now, but he can still
become a difference maker in the SEC
race again.
LSU … Didn't Play This Week
Ole Miss … The offense has gone
from bad to non-existent. BenJarvus
Green-Ellis isn't getting much room to
move, while the passing game has gone
bye-bye with Seth Adams struggling to
get anything working deep. For the
second straight game, Brent Schaeffer
came in, and for the second straight
game, he showed he's not the answer.
Fortunately, Northwestern State is ahead
before facing LSU. Now will be the time
to bomb away with the passing game to
get a little confidence.
Miss State … Talk about being
able to bounce back. MSU was awful in
the loss to West Virginia, and then it
came up with a defensive gem to shock
Kentucky and get within one more win of
bowl eligibility. The defense forced
turnovers, six of them, while the
offense didn't give them away. That
turned out to be the difference, thanks
to the pressure from the UK front that
made life tough for Andre Woodson. The
combination of Christian Ducre and
Anthony Dixon running the ball should be
enough to take the heat off Wesley
Carroll against Alabama and/or Arkansas.
South Carolina … Talk about your
gut-wrenching losses. South Carolina
gave it everything it had against
Tennessee, with players getting carried
off the field from cramps and
exhaustion, but still came within an
eyelash of pulling off the huge
comeback. Cory Boyd and Kenny McKinley
were magnificent, while Blake Mitchell
solidified himself as the starting
quarterback, at least for now. The
Gamecocks might have blown their big
shot at taking control of the East, but
they can still stay in the race with
wins over Arkansas and Florida.
Tennessee … The secondary can't
stop anyone, the running game was stuck
in the mud, and Erik Ainge only threw
for 216 yards, but the Vols still came
up with the win over South Carolina and
is now within shouting distance of
winning the East. Over the next week
against UL Lafayette, the offense has to
find a groove again. Inconsistency
continues to be a problem, but this team
battles hard. That might be enough in
this year's East.
Vanderbilt … It wasn't exactly
the performance the team wanted after
beating South Carolina, but Jonathan
Goff and the defense never let Miami
have much of a chance in the second half
to be a threat. There were three fumbles
and an interception, but the Commodore
offense worked well on the ground and
did what it needed to do to keep the
chains moving, particularly in the
fourth quarter. In the end, the day
belonged to Earl Bennett, who now has
215 career catches to be the SEC's
all-time leading receiver. He's a
special talent who'll start to get more
and more recognition. Finally.

Alcatraz was great. The City Tour was also amazing. The guide we had was very informative and knew his stuff about the city. His microphone was a bit mumbly at times and I found it difficult to hear all that he was saying. Otherwise we were very impressed with the service.
Great tour ,very knowledgeable and polite driver.Went to places in San Fransico that we would have not found on our owen.

James our tour guide was very knowledgeable, informative, and courteous. Very happy with our day! Will book again in the future.
City tour was good, guide was excellent, really knowledgeable, shared personal stuff but not overboard. Didn't realIse on booking that I would need to walk between places to collect tickets and get to next place. wasn't that far, but was a bit challenging in the extreme heat. Alcatraz was awesome.
This tour was amazing!

Great personalized tour, small group saw all the highlights. Tell the guide what you want to see and he will do what he can. Guaranteed ticket to Alcatraz for the stuck in traffic boat. You only need 2 hrs at Alcatraz max so spend your day accordingly. Ferry ride to wharf is great for pics
Our trip was absolutely amazing. It was fantastic value for money. Trip to Alcatraz was wonderful and incorporated the best audio tour I have ever had. It was made even more special as we met one of the last surviving ex inmates, bought his book and had photos taken with him. Our city tour, well what can I say, we certainly saw San Francisco. Special thanks must go to Don our tour guide who made it so memorable. He knew the history of every suburb , had an amazing knowledge of the city, a great sense of humour and just made it utterly enjoyable. I cannot recommend the trip highly enough and would definitely love to return to your wonderful city.
A good service throughout, tour guide was fantastic, good knowledge of the city and its history, The bay cruise was good but was unfortunate not to be able to land on Alcatraz due to the government shut down. But all the rest of the tour was superb.
It was a memorable experience and well worth the cost, Alcatraz was amazing and we were so lucky to enjoy it on such a beautiful day without any fog. We stayed @ Sir Francis Drake which was very nice but pricey for the size of the room. staff were right there to help, Parking there was expensive @ the hotel with the tips , again it was a great city and we enjoyed it very much.
Wonderful! Saw so much of the city - great tour guide!
It was wonderful from start to finish....well, everything but the weather that is:) That's San Francisco for you!
This tour was great fun and we learnt so much about San Francisco, I would suggest doing it early in your stay in San Fran so you can understand the city and places more. We had Patrick as our tour guide, he was really informative being a San Fran native, quite funny and fun in general and showed us many large, medium and small details about San Fran. Highly recommended and ask for Pat!
Very professional and informative driver. Comfortable bus, great sights, arrival and departure on time. Would recommend this driver and tour to all.
WOW!! What a great day!! Our tour guide was Safiya. She was AWESOME and we had a terrific day. Transportation was on time and comfortable. We enjoyed her knowledge of SF and she made it such a fun day. The only down side to this tour was the short time (45 min - 1 hour) we were permitted to spend in Sausalito. We informed our tour guide that more time should be allowed. Luckily, we had visited Sausalito the day before on our own and spent hours enjoying lunch, shopping and cocktails at The Trident over looking the water with a beautiful view of SF bay, Angel Island and Alcatraz.. The next day, we were walking around SF, saw Extranomical Tours, walked in and told them about the short time in Sausalito. They liked the feedback we gave them. Hopefully they will make changes for more time in Sausalito in the future.
This was the best day trip I had ever experienced. My family and I had so much fun. I have been recommending your website to all my friends the next time they are in San Francisco. The next time I take a trip I will defiantly book a trip through Viator.

Great information
Really enjoyed the tour - only disappointment was that we were meant to go on a morning tour but it was changed to an afternoon tour the day before - we missed out on driving over the golden gate bridge or getting anywhere near it - just spent to long on other things that we didn't really need to see and not on the big things like the golden gate bridge. by changing it to an afternoon tour meant we had to deal with afternoon traffic etc.
Too short. Guide was knowledgeable (sp?) and friendly
Great city tour, amazing visit of Alcatraz. We enjoyed ourselfs !!
The Alcatraz tour was fabulous. The city tour was good, but would have liked to see more of the major sites. The neighborhood information was interesting. I didn't like that they cancelled the city tour we were on the day before the tour. Luckily we were able to get on a different opening.
This tour was amazing!
