SJU Students Help Katrina Recovery Efforts
PHILADELPHIA (December 19, 2007) — There's little doubt that any college student would jump at the chance to visit the Gulf Coast for the winter, passing the snow-covered Northeast by for sunny beaches.

Originally written on The Penalty Flag | Last updated 8/19/13
First he was overrated, not worth a first-round pick. Then he got to camp and he was 'too fat'. Eddie Lacy must've heard all that, because he came out like he had something to prove Saturday night against the Rams. Lacy started the game after two weeks of injury-laden training camp practices which lead to hesitation that he would play at all against St. Louis. But play he did, racking up forty yards on eight carries – for an easily enumerated five yards per carry... Read more

Judd-257, PR63
Judd-257, PR63
Design. The obverse features Paquet's design with a seated figure of Liberty facing to the left, a fasces supported by her right hand and a shield by her left hand. Around, 13 stars, and below, the date. An eagle is partially hidden by the shield. The reverse design has a heavy wreath enclosing the date, denomination 20 DOLLARS, and legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. The lettering is all in Paquet's distinctive style, apparently not used by any other engravers. Struck in copper, gilt, with a reeded edge.
Commentary. About 20 of these patterns are thought to exist per USPatterns.com, and many are gilt like this piece. Andrew Pollock notes that the earliest auction appearance of Judd-257 was in 1870, according to a comment made by 19th century numismatist Thomas Birch. That comment suggests these pieces may be restrikes.
Physical Description. Deeply mirrored yellow surfaces exhibit a few faint contact marks and nearly imperceptible hairlines. Some additional lint marks are present, as is some faint pitting. This piece was probably plated long after it was struck. NGC Census: 4 in PR63 gilt, 4 finer gilt. PCGS Population: No gilt pieces certified (12/08).
Provenance. Ex: Stack's private treaty.

About the only rubber OD on a seal that I don't oil is oil sight glasses on oilheads and whatnot. They are looking for ANY excuse to blow out. I lubricate them with quick evaporating contact cleaner and stick them in FAST before it drys. It helps melt the rubber in tight as it evaporates!
I agree on the lubing of the outside of the seal to aid installation. But I was talking about the actual seal to flywheel contact surface, not where the seal sits in the block. I guess I should have clarified that, just didn't think I'd have to.

Associated Press, Published November 07 2013
Twin Cities archdiocese faces another sex lawsuitST. PAUL — A lawsuit filed Thursday alleges that officials in the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis allowed a priest to continue working with children despite reports that he sexually abused children as early as 1969.
Attorney Jeff Anderson filed the lawsuit against the Rev. Jerome Kern and the archdiocese.
The lawsuit was brought by a man in his 50s named in court records as "Doe 26," Minnesota Public Radio News reported. The man alleges Kern sexually abused him in the 1970s when the accuser was 12 to 16 years old.
Despite reports to archdiocesan officials over the years, the Roman Catholic church moved Kern from parish to parish rather than barring him from ministry, Anderson said.
"Promises were made to the moms and to the kids that something would be done and he would be removed," Anderson said. "Instead, those promises were broken."
In a statement, the archdiocese said it will investigate and respond to the claims. Kern was removed from ministry in 2002 and has been compliant with a monitoring program, the archdiocese said.
"We are completely committed to ensuring the safety of children and young people who have been entrusted to our care," the archdiocese said.
Kern was named in a previous sexual abuse lawsuit that was settled about 20 years ago, MPR reported.
Kern, now 72, did not immediately return a phone call Thursday seeking comment. He worked at St. Mark in St. Paul, Our Lady of Grace in Edina, Immaculate Heart of Mary in Minnetonka and St. Peter in Forest Lake.

Gallery: 8 Tallet: Green-Roofed Eco Village in Denmark
Ørestad is an emerging neighborhood in Copenhagen that is redefining 21st century living. At the heart of the development is 8 Tallet (or 8 House), a progressive apartment complex that is a small neighborhood in itself. The idea is that localizing services for residences — something large, dense cities take for granted — can be incorporated in new developments from the start. Designed by Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG), the complex features a gorgeous green roof, is oriented to make the most of available daylight, and is still just a 12 min train ride to downtown.

PDP: New leadership, new challenges
Deputy Political Editor EMMANUEL OLADESU highlights some of the challenges that will confront the new National Executive Committee (NEC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) led by Alhaji Bamanga Tukur.
A new chapter opened in the life of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), following the coronation of the shrewd businessman and politician, Alhaji Babanga Tukur, as the national chairman. He had fought many battles in the past and won. In business, as governor of the defunct Gongola State, Transport Minister, and party stalwart, Tukur has always survived political vicissitudes and maintained his integrity.
In the past, he was part of a legitimate rebellion to bad leadership in the ruling party. His push for reforms earned him temporary rustication. He triumphed over the drawback. When he bided for the topmost party position, it was evident that he was the candidate to beat. Presidential preference was an added advantage that eventually sustained him at the controversial national convention in Abuja, last weekend.
Tukur is an experienced politician. He has inherited a lot of challenges. In fact, the way he assumed the reins, despite partisan objections from certain quarters, also enlarged the burden of leadership on his shoulders. He emerged through guided consensus, another way of describing leadership imposition, which now pales into a peculiar and permissive party dictatorship. Although he is largely perceived as President Goodluck Jonathan's man, the new chairman is expected to be a father figure and leader. Observers believe that when a party chairman is the lackey of the Commander-In-Chief, the two-man show would be a prelude to the tyranny of the minority over the majority.
Tukur's emergence may have divided the party, instead of unifying it. But his ability to forge reconciliation across board will make him stand out as a good leader. The support of the President is not enough. The new chairman needs the support of many PDP stakeholders to succeed. Among the aggrieved chieftains, who should be target of peace moves, are the governors, chairmanship aspirants who lost out at the convention, excluded chieftains who did not make the delegates list, contenders for the secretaryship who bowed to presidential pressure, and party leaders who have lost their sense of belonging.
In his congratulatory message to the chairman, Abia State Governor Theodore Orji advised him to make reconciliation an urgent task. For Tukur, reconciliation should be in five stages. Sources said that he lacked a home base, a fact underscored by the rejection of his candidature by his root, the Northeast caucus, which expressed preference for his rival, Alhaji Musa Babayo. Therefore, he should kick-start reconciliation from home.
The Governors' Forum is the next point of call. The President had broken the bone of the forum by his logical persuasion. Dr. Jonathan had insisted on installing Tukur as national chairman because the governors also installed their trusted allies as state chairman. However, a gang up against him by the governors during critical times may frustrate his leadership.
In addition, Tukur should also move swiftly to promote inclusive participation by carrying his co-contestants along. Some of them are seasoned politicians and founding fathers of the party like him. This is the third layer.
At the state level, many PDP founding chieftains have been sidelined, owing to the politics of exclusion by the governors. Some of them, who left the party, have been firing salvos from outside. Others have continued to subvert the party from within, working in concert with opposition. Others are downcast as they are rendered politically immobile. There is need for Tukur to restore their confidence and re-integrate them as integral part of the fold. He should be a team player.
Above all, the new chairman should reconcile the North, his region, with the Presidency. Already, there is tension between President Jonathan and some northern leaders who loathe the prolongation of the power shift from the north.
Crisis resolution
Experience has shown that PDP is weak in crisis resolution. This has been the premise for the mass defection from the fold. One of the problems of the party is that it lacks an ideological compass, hence, no particular idea unites members. The collective goal is power hijack, power retention and power consolidation. The mad rush for power have fueled intrigues, politics of disaffection and destruction. Therefore, there is escalation of crisis. When crisis breaks, more energy is dissipated on crisis resolution by governors than governance. A new, fair and transparent crisis resolution mechanism will surely assist the new leadership in building a stronger party.
Internal democracy
Tukur's selection, observers argued, may have constituted a breach of internal democracy. This is debatable. However, there is a persistent tension between party supremacy and internal democracy. The sanctity of ballot box in an in-house election is old-fashioned. The new trend is the selection and imposition of candidates by holders of party power under the guise of party supremacy. This is an affront on democracy.
For many years, freedom of choice had been killed during intra-party contests as the President and governors have consistently edged perceived foes out of legitimate contest. In PDP, the words of the President and governors are law. Consequently, state chapters are treated as the extension of State Houses and personal property. Party offices and tickets are not meant for members outside the caucus.
Other parties have no exceptional virtue to copy from the leading party. This is worrisome to the national chairman of the Progressive Peoples Alliance (PPA), Mr. Sam Nkire. He said: "Whatever the PDP does is capable of influencing the system, either positively or negatively. Most political parties in Nigeria are offshoots of the PDP and naturally, they still maintain the political culture of the PDP. So, there is the need for the new leadership to show the light". Nkire also advised Tukur to shun the bad style of his predecessors, who saw politics through the prism of 'winners-take-all' and seek the cooperation of other parties.
Party caucus and discipline
In the Second Republic, party caucus was the vogue. It was the highest decision-making organ. the national chairman presided. The President was a member. All matters were decided at the caucus, which was an assemblage of party leaders, governors, federal parliamentarians and elders. Painstaking debates were encouraged. In the defunct National Party of Nigeria (NPN), the decision of the party caucus, not the President's, was final. Party discipline was also rigorously enforced. There was party hierarchy, rules, ethos and bounds. Can Tukur, the Second Republic governor of Gongola State, re-enact that experience?
Polarisation of state chapters
Tukur has inherited many polarised state chapters where factions of the party do not recognise the leadership foisted on them. Many chapters, including Oyo, Ekiti, Delta, Bayelsa, and Edo, are in disarray. In Delta, party elders are fighting the governor. In Ekiti, there is a battle of supremacy going on between 'Abuja politicians' and colleagues at home. In Edo, Chief Tony Anenih and Prof. Osahermin Osunbo are at loggerheads. In Oyo, Alao-Akala's camp and his foes have not fully reconciled, despite the electoral tragedy that befell them last year. While Senator Rashidi Ladoja, the PDP leader of Accord Party, wanted to retrace his steps, insincerity of the party made him to regress back to his shell. Polarisation usually takes its toll on the party during electioneering. The party and state are heated up as theatres of war.
Party reforms
The goal of reforms in the PDP should be three-fold. A reformed party should embrace the rule of law, shun rigging and promote internal democracy. PDP has maintained that curious reputation of violating the rule of law and due process. In the past, the party cleverly ignored court orders. Will Tukur's tenure make the difference?
Apart from being described as a nest of killers, PDP has also gained notoriety for massive electoral malpractices. It is because its manifesto has not appealed to many Nigerians. To bridge the gap, party leaders resort to rigging. This has dented the image of the party.
2015 elections
The greatest challenge is the 2015 presidential contest. The north is pushing for power shift. Yet, the President is entitled to a second term. The battle line is drawn. How will Tukur ensure that his party does not disintegrate?

Do or die for Kongo in this fight. I'm not a fan of Herring anyways so this replacement makes this fight more exciting. He can say good-bye to his title shot if he loses or can move up in line for the HW title.
Yeeeaaaaahhhh boi, this is the win that Kongo needs to get his confidence right up there, to hang with the top contenders.
This is a good fight. I think Kongo has the edge in this one. Kongo is a big HW as I think Cain is Kinda small at 6'1 and soft at 240. Im not really impressed with Cain in first few fights. I think Cain has more of a future at LHW then at HW.
Going for Kongo.
If Cain wrestles Kongo he can win. If he tries to trade strikes he's likely in trouble.
I'm taking Kongo in this one and after he wins he gets the winner of Mir/Lesnar. Give Carwin the winner of Nog/Randy
At the rate both of these guys have been finishing their fights lately, I feel like someone is going to die.
EDIT: Kongo by TKO, or death punch.

Each meal plan comes with a number of meals to be eated in Antonian Hall (the Caf). There are two types of meal plans. 19 Meal Plans and Block plans.
Meal Exchanges
Meal exchanges are when you take one of the meals that you would normally eat in the Caf and instead, eat at one of our retail dining locations.
Meal Plan Options
The 19 Meal Plans
If you are a first year freshman living on campus, you will start out with a 19 Meal Plan. You get 19 meals each week. Any meals that you don't use by the end of the week expire on Sunday night and you get a fresh 19 meals at the beginning of every Monday.
With these plans, you can use up to three of your meals as a meal exchange each week. You can do this twice on weekdays (Mon. - Thu.) and once on weekends (Fri. - Sun.). You can do a meal exchane up to three times on weekends if you don't use your weekday meal exchanges.
Block Plans
If you have a block plan, you get a large number of meals for the entire semester. Any meals that you don't use at the end of the semester will expire.
265, 200, & 155 Block Plans
With these plans, 80 of your meals are set aside for meal exchanges to use during the semester. Each week, you can use up to five of your meals as meal exchanges.
You can do this up to three times on weekdays (Mon. - Thu.) and twice on the weekends (Fri. - Sun.) Also, you can do a meal exchange up to five times on the weekend if you don't use your weekday meal exchanges.
At the end of the week, any of your five meal exchanges that are unused will be taken from the 80 that were set aside for meal exchanges and added back as regular meals.
75 & 25 Block Plans
With these plans, you can use as many of your meals as meal exchanges as you like.

Breakfast: $5.75
Lunch/Brunch: $7.75
Dinner: $8.75
Steak/Gourmet Meal: $9.75
Selection of a Campus Dining Services Meal Plan entitles you to a Meal Card, which allows you purchasing power equivalent to the plan you have selected. Here is how it works...
You can use your weekly meals any time you want during a given week Monday though Sunday. At the end of the week any unused will expire and you will begin the new week with your weekly meals refreshed. Be sure to use all of your meals each week. Here are a couple of programs to help you do that.
Monday through Saturday you can opt to use two swipes of your meal card to upgrade your meal. Selections include steak, shrimp, veal and more. Each day we'll post a picture of the day's Grill on Demand at the entrance of Antonian Hall. If you buy a Grill on Demand with two swipes of your card, we'll give you a ticket to redeem your upscale meal at the Grill.
Lost or stolen Meal Cards can be replaced. Should this happen to you, you should stop by the Sodexo office in Antonian Hall (740-283-6274). Please bring some form of ID with your name on it to our office and we will give you a three day pass good for entry into the cafeteria. This should buy you some time to find or purchase a new card. Be sure to contact us for details.

Gem Roman Matte Proof 1910 Half Eagle1910 $5 PR66 NGC. The official mintage for proof Half Eagles from 1910 is the highest of any date of its type, listed at 250 pieces. This figure is either incorrect or a great many were melted at year's end as unsold because the 1910 is approximately twice as rare as the 1908, of which fewer pieces were struck, and of equal rarity with the 1909, an issue with only 78 proofs officially minted. Akers only recorded 17 auction sales of proofs over the decades he surveyed major gold auctions, and while more examples obviously exist, we estimate that no more than 50-55 coins are extant in all grades. The 1910 continues the two-year tradition of using the Satin or Roman Gold finish on gold proofs. Many business strikes were similarly finished, but there can be no doubt about the method of manufacture of this lovely, fully struck proof. The surfaces have a very fine granular texture and appear to be essentially as struck. With the unaided eye, one fails to notice any blemishes or spots that might lessen this splendid coin's pristine status, but under close examination, a couple of slightly shiny areas can be seen in the reverse field. Population: 10 in 66, 8 finer (11/04).

Maura Mottolese, a lawyer representing the owners of the former Bender Melon Farm, has confirmed that the contract between the Sphere Development LLC and the owners has been terminated some time last week.
Sphere has said, though, they are interested in a parcel with in the \same market, on Tuesday, Oct. 13.
Discussions to buy the property and develop the land, located near the corner of Route 85 and 85A, began in January in 2008, Mottolese said.
Sphere, a developer based near Syracuse, had never made an official proposal to the town, but had discussed a building a 137,000 square foot Target to anchor a shopping plaza on the former Bendor Melon Farm.
Last month Greg Widrick, a managing partner at Sphere, said New Scotland is no longer listed as an area of economic opportunity on Sphere's Web site, however, he indicated that if the town's zoning code was conducive to development, Sphere would continue to look at the possibility.
Sphere's managing partners told The Spotlight that it is under contract negotiations for another parcel in the same market, but could not confirm if it was in New Scotland.
{Q}"Sphere refuses to discuss anything to do with the contract of the Bender Melon Land owners," Widrick said.{Q}
Kurt Wendler, another managing partner with Sphere along with Widrick noted that eventually property owners can begin to make infringement claims, especially if the town does not show it has a feasible end to its commercial building moratorium.
"It just can't go on indefinitely," Widrick said.""

Every year, come late March, the following e-mail appears in your inbox. It's from that one dude you sort-of knew in college:
Hey Broheim, We need a 12th to fill out our fantasy baseball league. You in?
He doesn't ask about the kids, doesn't give a damn about your new job, he skips the small talk and whips out his fantasy baseball league. Jeeze… he could at least buy a guy drinks first. But what the hell…you like baseball. And it could be fun, following the action with your own Bad News Bears. So, for all those coerced into a season of fantasy baseball, we at Bugs & Cranks present our handy, step-by-step guide to a fun, winning season.
Auto Draft
Don't be proud. If the league allows it, let the algorithm draft for you. How many of us had the stones to take Altuve or Abreu in the early rounds of 2014? "Who the heck is Jose Abreu? Bobby Abreu's brother? PASS." Drafting a winner is like assembling a Post-Modern Abstractionist jigsaw puzzle: there are a ton of parts and it's hard to say how they fit together. Let the computer do the work.
Seriously, in 162 games, there's no way of knowing if a pitcher will Kershaw the league or shake hands with Tommy John. It's mostly luck. And yes, Kershaw is now a verb.
The Secret of the Slash
Players often qualify for positions they rarely (if ever) play. If a 1B platoons in Left for a few games—voila!—he's now a 1B/OF. Now you can pencil two big, clubbing dopes into your lineup. This is especially helpful in leagues which count double plays. It also allows you multiple backup players in case your starting 1B takes a fastball to the wrist (SEE: "Luck").
No Hometown Players
After listening to a long winter of inane sports talk radio, you know it's gonna be a breakout year for [insert perpetually slumping player on your hometown team]. JUST NO. Do you want to lose fantasy baseball? Because that's how you lose fantasy baseball. NOTE: Detroiters and Los Angelos can probably ignore this rule.
Find the Crazy Trader
Every league has at least one methed-out Billy Beane. "Trade my established, 5-tool player for this just-recalled pitching prospect? Weeeeeee! Sold!" This guy is your friend. Fleece him for all he's worth! Isn't it fun to be evil?
Thrift Shop Hero
Cue the Maclemore; winning fantasy baseball is all about poppin' them tags. There's always one or two solid players who go undrafted. Mekly Cabrera, for example, took an HGH-cation for half of 2013. Sans stats, most computer algorithms lacked the data to draft him in 2014. Keep an eye on the second-hand stores, you'll pick up a few gems that will leave your fellow fantasy owners wailing and gnashing their teeth.
Trade ALL the Closers!
The save is baseball's foot fetish: some people are way into it, and those who aren't will never understand. Add the relative instability of bullpens, and you'll find closers grossly overvalued. In the early months of the season, trade a closer or two; you'll gain them back as teams shift the backend of their bullpen in July and August.
Did I Mention Luck?
At this point, you're probably in first place. Talk about luck, right? But what do we do about Jason Kipnis? He was supposed to be a top-10 player. Damn, it… do we hold Kip or gamble on another 1B/OF?
They're Not Baseball Players, They're Statistical Accumulation Machines
Okay, if you want to win, you have to forget the player's name. Forget his face. He's not the guy who signed a homer deal. He's not the dude who spends off-days visiting sick kids in the hospital. It's all about the stats, baby. You've got to be a cold-hearted bastard. There's no hometown heroes here. I don't care if your grandmother is playing 3B; if she's not producing, send her to the glue factory.
Waiver Watching
Some guys play fantasy baseball like they're carrying nuclear launch codes. You'll never get a clear answer on their asking price for Miguel Cabrera. However, if you watch the waiver wire and see they've dropped a decent outfielder to pick up another middling starting pitcher, waste no time. There's blood in the water! SWOOP IN FOR THE KILL!
Enable the Disabled
Devin Mesoraco's hamstring injury probably sucked for Devin Mesoraco. For fantasy owners, Devin's DL stint presented the chance to snag a slugger on the cheap. Impatient fantasy owners often waive players rather than waste a precious DL spot. At the very least, a gimp player makes for a cheaper trade. Watch RotoWire for any whiff of injury news. Set your hawk eyes on any little mouse hobbling down the first base line. Listen for the tearful cries of the beaned and broken. Those sorrowful sounds are music to the winner's ears!
Also, Luck
Damnit, Cliff Lee! You couldn't even give me one quality start after that DL stint! NOT EVEN ONE! How the hell am I supposed to trade you for OBPS and HR help when you've got more WHIP than 50 Shades of Grey?!
Don't Sleep or Eat
Listen, the other suckers are doing dumb things like playing with their kids and using their time at work to actually work. You could be checking the daily lineups, scouring rumor mills for the latest injury news. If you want to win, you'll need to spend at least 30 minutes deliberating between Brett Gardner and Nelson Cruz. Tangential to this, if you don't get a decent Wi-Fi signal in the bathroom, you'll just have to hold your deuces until October.
And look at that! With mere weeks left in the regular season, we're 56 games up on our closest competition. Soon, you'll be enjoying the best things in life: [youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjMQbzBhTb4] Feel that power! The trophy will soon be yours! In the meantime, I'll be compulsively refreshing RotoWire. Here's to hoping another All-Star stat generator takes a fastball to the junk.

Effects of Specific Strategy Training on the Written Expression of Learning Disabled Students Grades 3-6
Kurtz, Helen
MetadataShow full item record
SubjectStudents with disabilities--Education (Elementary); English language--Rhetoric--Study and teaching
The problem. Learning disabled students acquire or use written language skills less efficiently than nondisabled students. Specific interventions are needed to facilitate written language acquisition for the learning disabled. Procedure. Eighteen learning disabled students in grades three through six were involved in a study to investigate the effects of specific strategy training on their written language skills. A three-group planned-match design was employed to determine the possible effects of strategy training under the contrasting conditions of teacher direction and self-direction. The standard intervention group served as the control group and did not receive strateqy training. The teacher-directed group was involved in strateqy training and was monitored during strategy use by the teacher. The self-directed group received strategy training as well as guidelines to selfmonitor strategy use. The purpose of this group was to determine if learning disabled students could employ the metacognitive skills of self-questions and self-statements to guide strategy use and to determine if there was a difference between teacher directed and self-directed strateqy use. Findings. Pre and post tests were administered and immediate gain factors were reported based on the "Test of Written Language (TOWL)" total and subtest scores. Anecdotal observations of writing behaviors were also collected. Students who were trained in writing strategies performed better in general on the TOWL than students who were not trained in strategy use. Students who learned to monitor their own strategy use showed greater gains than students whose strategy use was monitored by the teacher. Recommendations. The application of cognitive strategies to academic areas is viable focus for continued study.

I just realize that I did not click "Publish" for this post! My timing has been so the off and I'm always late. Must start organizing my time and not to be late for appointments anymore!
Okay, enough of kinky steamy post for now. I don't always write those kinda things wan lah. I'm a good boy, remember? So, it's time for updates, and these was 2010 New Year's Eve at Penang.
Bought myself a super cheap AirAsia ticket up to Penang to have fun with The Boys from 30th Dec 2009 till 1st Jan 2010. The travel which was all in the hands of The Boys.
This is where I stayed, Flamingo by the Beach on Tanjung Bungah. Not too bad though this hotel, considering it is a four star rated hotel. Formerly it is known as Crown Jewel Hotel.
For the countdown, we went to Sunset Bistro at Batu Ferringhi and it was like super jam pack with people. Considering we have a beach feel, but the location… ermm.. could be better. I wanted to search for the bar I went two years ago, but I can't remember that place's name. Quiet environment, by the sea but I can't remember if they have a beach there.
Overall, I enjoyed the trip. Been a while since Chiang Mai that I can just relax. Plus, the whole random Taboo games was like crazy! We could have played Monopoly the whole night lah, seriously. Throughout this whole Penang plan, the driving back part was a little bit tiring. Next time, we fly.
Part of The Boys. Missing Pat who's in South Africa and Ben is just being Ben for being an anal for not coming.
Good start for 2010… and more to come.

Just me causing trouble...where's the 3dm2k3 story on your front page?
I can guess, but I felt like formally asking first. ;)
Why isn't there a story on FutureMark's banning of nVidia's "review drivers" on your front page? I'm assuming it counts as news, and even nVidia news in a big way. (Albeit it not necessarily a "good" big way.... ;) )
Whoa, this was just reported today...not quick enough for ya huh? ;) I just finished posting this here: http://www.nvnews.net/#1048534064
In me best Gilda Radner voice, "Never mind."
Cool beans, sorry. :)
Actually, my beans are quite warm but I digress. :D Thanks for pointing it out, I always appreciate a good tip. I've never been big on forums but I've started trying to keep an eye on this thread.
Heh heh, yeah that little quip just came to me out of nowhere...whew, it's definitely a Monday for me. :p

Of course he must have thought Kullman and "SPECIAL-K" were idiots as well to offer each of them the same deal.Originally Posted by paulrichjr
Of course Pants always has put a pretty high value on his own thoughts and fashion sense.
When is his contract up?
"Sometimes, it's not the sexiest moves that put you over the top," Krivsky said. "It's a series of transactions that help you get there."
I don't think it speaks badly of anyone. JimBo was trying to get the Reds to do a sucker deal and the Reds didn't bite. If I were JimBo I'd be trying to take advantage of anyone to make my team better. Who better to take advantage of than DanO?
The Rally Onion wants 150 fans before Opening Day.
What does it say about Bowden when he continually asks the Reds to trade Soriano for Dunn and they obviously don't listen and are not interested in that one sided deal? Makes me think that other GMs have to think, "the idiot from Cincy/Washington is on the line..." whenever he calls. If this is the way he handled himself in the past you know he has made few friends in the industry.
This kind of stuff is one reason I like the Oakland front office. They admit to trying to make deals that help both teams not just one sided.
Tim McCarver: Baseball Quotes
I remember one time going out to the mound to talk with Bob Gibson. He told me to get back behind the batter, that the only thing I knew about pitching was that it was hard to hit.
Who wants to bet the only reason Dan O didn't pull the trigger was that he already had Aurilia and Womack?
I'd rather have wily mo in the OF than Soriano. He may have his problems on D, but at least he tries. I don't want any attitudes like Soriano's any where near the clubhouse. I'm worried enough about a couple of guys as it stands.
What it says about him is that he's persistant. I'm not a big fan of JimBo but you're not going to get Dunn in a trade unless you ask. You never know when you find someone stupid enough to do that deal. If they say no, what have you lost.Originally Posted by paulrichjr
As for JimBo's popularity, if he's got a player some other team needs, he could be as popular as Hitler and they will do a deal with him. And don't give me that nonsense about Billy Beane being altruistic. He's out to make the best deal possible for the As and if it helps the other team, that's great. The difference between the two is that Beane has more talent to give up. And it's not like JimBo's got a history of making one-sided deals. He may be asking to make those kind of deals but when it comes down to actually consummating a trade, he hasn't been screwing teams lately.
The Rally Onion wants 150 fans before Opening Day.
I'm sure that Billy Beane always tries to help his team (of course) but I also doubt he would call 3 different times to try to make what is clearly a one sided trade. I also have noticed that JimBo hasn't made many one sided trades lately. In fact I haven't noticed him making very many trades at all which could be due to no talent to trade or as some have suggested in the past JimBo has few friends in baseball....besides Peter Gammons.Originally Posted by Chip R

as quickly as Dan0 moved, he is still probably working on the deal, attempting to get Guzman in the deal, with the Reds parting with Dunn, FeLo and two players to be named later, along with 7 million in cash.

Viewers: in countries Watching now:
Join author and business coach Dave Crenshaw as he shows you the company, market, and customer focus that strategic leaders employ to make business decisions and anticipate new trends. This course shows you how to make crucial and insightful connections between your company's needs and future and those of the market you operate in and the customers you serve.
Discover how you can identify trends, gather and address customer feedback, and proactively deliver what your company needs for competitive advantage.
This course is one of a series of five Dave Crenshaw courses based on his Invaluable teaching methodology for professional development.
In nearly every role in a company, there are opportunities to have contact with customers, even if you don't work in customer service. To help you understand customer complaints, consider this example. Picture yourself in an unfamiliar city. You're driving down the road trying to find an address you're looking for. Suddenly, off to the side, you see someone waving their hands and yelling, you're going the wrong way! This is a one-way street! Now, imagine how silly it would be if you yelled to that person, leave me alone, I know what I'm doing! You wouldn't do that, of course, you'd be appreciative, maybe a bit embarrassed, and you'd correct the situation as quickly as you could.
All too often, however, when a customer complains our first reaction isn't saying thank you and making a quick correction, but instead we say, leave me alone, I know what I'm doing. We tend to view customer complaints as annoyances, when in fact, these complaints are wonderful opportunities. They are opportunities for us to learn, for the company to improve, and to correct our course and get back on the right track. In the next video, I'm going to give you a simple system that you can use to resolve and learn from these complaints.

Re: Smallville10x21&22 "Finale" Discuss/Grade
I'm still baffled as to why people continue to think the series finale would be different than any other episode on the show. This has been their modus operandi since the pilot, Brian and Kelly have kept the formulaic style that Miles and Gough instituted. There were surface changes only. Essentially the series finale was no different than any of the previous seasons. I agree that they treated it like a season finale, but again...that wasn't a surprise. This whole season should have been something epic and special but because the producers only cater to a certain faction of the fandom of this show the rest of us get screwed.

Author has written 57 stories for Tour of Duty, UC: UnderCover, Mummy, Presidio Med, Lord of the Rings, Silmarillion, Hobbit, Twilight, Stargate: Atlantis, Firefly, and Little Prince.
Welcome, welcome!
Well, let's see, what's most important to tell you, as a reader looking for something that might be your cup o' tea… *scratches chin*
I write fluffy, rose-colored stories with just a touch of angst, for the most part. I don't write slash (or really romance of any kind), mostly because it tends to get in the way of good story-telling (at least in terms of what I like to read, and since I write, for the most part, what I'd like to read, well... 'Nuf said.) I've no issues with others enjoying that particular cup of tea, it's just not my preference.
Within the Tolkien universe I'm whole-heartedly a wood-elf fan, and a Hobbity-canon wood-elf fan, at that. I like that they are more dangerous and less wise; that they are good people, who are generous and humane, even to their foes; that they feast and enjoy life in the woods, despite the darkness that surrounds them; that they associate with the people of Middle-earth instead of isolating themselves; that they are partial to pretty, shiny gems, but value them less than lives; that they are magical; that they stand strong without a ring of power; and that Tolkien didn't tell us much about them otherwise, leaving a large sandbox in which fanficcers can play. And I like Thranduil! (Ages ago, I wrote "A Defense of the Elvenking" https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10780933/1/In-Defense-of-the-Elvenking)
The above view of the wood-elves is, of course, Hobbity-canon, not LOTR or Silm, or, most importantly, Peter Jackson movie-canon. Still, it's the view of the wood-elves I have chosen to use when I write.
Side-note: "The Anguish of Mercy" was written for the Mellon Chronicles photo challenge, and "A Fair Path" was written for a photo drabble challenge, but, alas, I do not have the photos for either to help alleviate any confusion the stories might create for the readers
Now then, please, make yourself at home. Enjoy the pretty picture, check out my favorite authors/stories, and peruse my story list. It is my sincerest hope that you will find something enjoyable to read. :D
Happy reading!

Florida Community Asks Mermaid To Swim Elsewhere
By Mark Memmott
Jenna Conti just wants to swim.
In her custom-made mermaid costume.
At the Fishhawk Ranch community pools in Tampa, Fla.
But rules are rules, the local development district board says. And the rules say no swim fins in the pools.
So Conti, or Eden Sirene as she's known when she swims, has been left high and dry.
She "just wanted to really show some magic here in Fishhawk," Conti says.
Still, her dream lives on. She hopes to someday swim with other mermaids at the Florida Aquarium.
