The older I get - the better I was
and yes - I hate the Cardinals (Reds fan since 1958)
Remember Votto's insane run earlier this year where Votto was something like 46 for 97.....Andrew McCutchen is 50 for his last 101.
He's up to .375
"Sudden" Sam LeCure puts away in the 8th...Who will pitch the 9th?

Denver Broncos linebacker Von Miller will be wearing some fresh kicks when his team takes the field against the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC playoffs on Saturday.Miller, heralded as one of the top pass rushers in the league, is hoping to use the playoffs as a marketing platform for a pair of specially-designed shoes. Adidas created the lightweight, all-white sneakers especially for the former Texas A&M standout, who some now refer to as "Vonnie Football" as a spinoff of Johnny Manziel's moniker as "Johnny Football". Manziel, of course, became the the first freshman in history to win the Heisman Trophy after leading the Aggies to a remarkable season."It's all about the shoes, man," Miller said, laughing at his overstatement that ignores his stunning combination of flexibility, speed and strength. "I'm not DRose or anything like that, but I got to get this shoe out there, having people see it. Get all the high school kids wearing it." Miller is following in the footsteps of his favorite basketball player, Chicago Bulls star Derrick Rose."I'm just trying to be a little DRose-ish," in reference to the shoes Reebok makes in Rose's honor.The former No. 2 overall pick is hoping his new kicks will eventually branch out, namely his alma mater."Yeah, maybe get all the guys at A&M decked out in these," Miller said. "That would be cool." I wonder what Manziel thinks about these shoes?Via Yahoo! Sports.

"Thank you so much for all your help with the funeral planning and the actual funeral. Everything was beautiful and could not have been more special or gone any smoother. It was comforting for our family to know that everything was going to be taken care of and that we would do my father-in-law justice with a very beautiful funeral. Thank you so much for that peace-of-mind. We could not have been more pleased with how everything turned out. You all are truly wonderful at what you do. I would never go anywhere else! (Although I'm hoping not to have to use your services for a very long time!) Thank you so much for everything."

Gallery: INHABITAT TOUR: NYC's LEED Platinum Cooper Union Academy
This year The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art opened a stunning new academic building in downtown Manhattan that boasts a bevy of green building strategies. Designed by Morphosis, the project replaces the existing Hewitt Academic Building and incorporates many of the demolished building materials. We recently had the opportunity to tour and photograph the new building for a first-hand look at this revolutionary project – read on for our exclusive report!

I'm sorry, but, with all due respect, GIVE ME the grey stone building on the left any day. The grey stone building is beautifully rich and in one glance mirrors hundreds of years of human art, history and design and is done on a wonderfully human scale. In comparison, this Cooper Union bldg, for me, is very cold, reflects nothing of man and done on what feels like a cosmic scale. In fact raising it next to this beautiful grey stone building on the left seems………rude. Betty.

If you run a WordPress blog with multiple authors you might consider making an Authors' list page to show off your authors, with their descriptions and some social profile links. Some of the biggest blogs practice this and a lot of others just forget about it. An authors' list page helps your readers connect with their favorite authors easily. Sadly, 50% to 70% themes do not have authors.php included in them so WordPress automatically displays the archive.php. In this tutorial, we will be showing you how to create an authors listing page in for you WordPress site.
Making your blog more social & professional is always a plus point. This page can also help in getting your editors/authors team recognized by your readers and bring more credibility to your site ( to enable you to get into Google News for example ). Creating a customised authors' list is really simple. The code for the author description is entirely provided by known and documented WordPress template tags and information gathered from the authors' profiles.
Tutorial Details
- Program: WordPress
- Version : 3.0 & Above (It may work with old versions)
- Difficulty: Intermediate
- Estimated Completion Time: 15 mins
Let's start the process.The overall process is very simple, you will download authors.php and will upload it in you theme then finally you will insert a code in your theme's functions.php file.Isn't it easy?
Step 1:
I have coded a very simple Authors' List WordPress Page Template (It will work with most of the themes & it is easy to modify due to in-line CSS), you can download it from the below link. Upload this template in your theme's root folder
Download Authors.php Template »
What will this page template do?
The answer is quite simple, it will list the authors ordered by their IDs, followed by correct description and gravatar.After this it will show the latest post by author with multiple social profile links (Author must fill the description/author bio & social profile links inside the admin panel to make his/her gravatar displayed).The supported social profiles are Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Digg and Flickr.
Step 2:
Now its time to add some functionality in user's profile admin area.Find the code below, copy it and paste it at the very top of functions.php in your themes root.It is a crucial step, add the code before anything at the very beginning of funtions.php to avoid any errors.(Do backup your theme's funtions.php file for safety before modifying it.)
yourdomaincom/wp-content/themes/yourthemename/functions.php(Modify it after back up)
WordPress Admin > Appearance >Editor > Theme Functions(functions.php)

More Social Links

 Twitter	  <input id="" class="regular-text" type="text" name="twitter" value="<?php echo esc_attr(get_the_author_meta(" /> Please enter your Twitter username. http://www.twitter.com/username

 Facebook	  <input id="" class="regular-text" type="text" name="facebook" value="<?php echo esc_attr(get_the_author_meta(" /> Please enter your Facebook username/alias. http://www.facebook.com/username

 LinkedIn	  <input id="" class="regular-text" type="text" name="linkedin" value="<?php echo esc_attr(get_the_author_meta(" /> Please enter your LinkedIn username. http://www.linkedin.com/in/username

 Digg	  <input id="" class="regular-text" type="text" name="digg" value="<?php echo esc_attr(get_the_author_meta(" /> Please enter your Digg username. http://digg.com/users/username

 Flickr	  <input id="" class="regular-text" type="text" name="flickr" value="<?php echo esc_attr(get_the_author_meta(" /> Please enter your flickr username. http://www.flickr.com/photos/username/

What will this code do ?
This code will add support for the social profiles i.e. Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Digg and Flickr inside the Edit Profile Admin section.
Tip: There must be no spaces at the end of functions.php
Step 3:(Final Step)
So, now we have implemented the functionality in admin panel and authors.php is also uploaded.The last thing to do is to display this authors' list as a page in WordPress.
Goto your blog's admin panel > Pages > Add New >
Add a page with desired title & choose the Authors List Template from templates section on the right side.Don't add any content in the page , just publish it and you are done.View the page to see the results.Wasn't it easy?
Adding Style:(Optional Step)
This is for users who have a little knowledge of CSS . If you study the authors.php template, you downloaded, you will find out some in-line CSS in it, which can easily be used to style your author's list.You can add dotted border, or gradient background boxes, may be some nice padding and such other things.

You might ask about a working styled demo, then I have one for you. Click the below demo link to view it.
