Forum Guide to Facilities Information Management: A Resource for State and Local Education Agencies
National Forum on Education Statistics
(National Center for Education Statistics, Washington, D.C. , Mar 2012)
This guide provides a framework for collecting, evaluating, and maintaining education facilities data. It is written to help officials design a school facility information system that supports policy and decision making; management and operation; capital budgeting and project management; public participation in school facilities planning; and the integration of facilities data into other education and municipal data sets. Best practices are given for the design, development, implementation, and use of facilities management information systems, along with a list of standard data elements. These elements can be used to develop indicators for measuring and comparing the quality of education facilities; and, in turn, answering policy questions and informing new education policies. The facility data elements presented in this guide are described in greater detail in the NCES Handbooks Online at http://nces.ed.gov/programs/handbook. 80p

An Emerging Framework for School Design Based on Children's Voices
Rokhshid Ghaziani
Children, Youth, and Environments; v22 n1 , p125-144 ; Spring 2012
This paper explores the views and expectations of children regarding their school environments and has constructed a framework for the school design process based on children's information and reflections. The research objectives required analyzing secondary data, as well as qualitative and quantitative empirical studies— each one leading to the next. The issues raised by children about school design emerged through an analysis of three previous studies in the UK. The empirical study involved 260 children (11-12 years old) in two secondary schools in England. The findings highlight the importance children attribute to various issues. The overall findings have been developed as a school design framework to guide the design and decision-making processes of architects and designers.

Citizens Fit for the 21st Century? The Role of School Design in Facilitating Citizenship and Self-Governance in Young People
Brown, Jane
Education, Citizenship and Social Justice; n1 , p19-31 ; Mar 2012
This article explores the relevance of school design in providing an important social-spatial context for promoting citizenship in young people. Drawing on a small-scale study that investigated the perspectives of pupils and teachers, it contrasts the ways in which the social control and monitoring of pupils differed in two secondary schools. Comparing features of everyday life in one new and one old-build school, this study found that school design could either heighten or lessen the need for teacher control of pupils. As a consequence the layout of the schools could enable or restrict young people's opportunities for self-determination, as well as encourage the normalization of the acceptance of control by others. The implications of this for the production of autonomous and self-governing citizens will be addressed. [Author's abstract]

School as a Place: A Phenomenological Method for Contemplating School Environments
Zur, Ayala; Eisikovits, Rivka A.
International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education; v24 n4 , p451-470 ; 2011
The study presents a phenomenologically based research procedure, whose intent is to examine people's school experience and the meaning they ascribe to "school." Participants in this investigative endeavor are instructed to sketch an "ideal school," present their plan in a visual-schematic manner, and provide an oral and written description of their design. Proposals are presented through a Location Task--a tool originally intended for use by architects in their routine work with clients. We discuss the rationale behind this procedure and describe the research tool and its application potential. Finally, we illustrate the data processing via the analysis of one proposal designed by a 17-year-old male student.[Authors' abstract]TO ORDER: http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/routledg/tqse/2011/00000024/00000004/art00004

The Table of Peace: The Status of Kurds in Turkey
Lerer, Noam, Harvard International Review
From the day that the guns fell silent in World War I and the Ottoman Empire collapsed into its constituent components, the question of what to do with minorities within the rump state of Turkey, particularly the Kurds, has been a burning issue. When Kemal Ataturk founded the Turkish state from the ashes of the old polyglot empire, his vision called for a unitary state in which everyone would be united in a common identity as Turks. This vision was placed by Ataturk at the core of the Turkish state and provided Turks with a sense of identity and stability that may account for a portion of its modern success. However, this philosophy of unity involved the elimination of outliers, such as religiosity and the identity of the Kurds. All Kurdish culture was banned, and no languages were allowed to be spoken or taught other than Turkish. The conflict between the militant adhesive used to hold together the Turkish state and the wish for the Kurds to preserve their own identity has wracked the nation since its founding. However, progress has been made in reconciling the Turkish state with the Kurdish people through redefining the aims of both. If this trend continues, Turkey will finally settle down to full peace and be relieved of the burdens that still hold it back from its quest to join the developed world.
The "Kurdish problem" has always been intimately related to Turkey's greater problems, such as its shaky democracy. Traditionally, the military has considered itself to be the upholder of the unified Kemalist state, which it views as critical to the survival of Turkey and more important to Turkish democracy than any given democratic election or government. The first coup d'etat by the military against the government in September 1980 was justified primarily on the basis of this "Kurdish problem." This coup occurred before the Kurdistan Worker's Party (PKK) began a bloody revolt, though not the first to hit Turkey, for independence in 1989. The fighting was brutal, pitting a group that is considered by the Turkish government and the US State Department to be a terrorist organization against a hard-line army that imposed martial law on the region, evacuated villages, and ensured that the Turkish state would never compromise on the Kurdish issue.
A few simultaneous events have coalesced to create the most stable situation in years. Abdullah Ocalan, the head of the PKK, was captured in 1999, and his group pledged a ceasefire as a result. …

The City of Tallahassee wants time to determine why two lakes in Killearn Estates have become polluted.
But Killearn Homeowners Association Executive Director Brad Trotman said the city already knows that answer. He claims its storm water management plan includes dumping untreated sediment that sticks to the lake beds.
"They're just dragging it on," Trotman said shortly before addressing the Tallahassee City Commission during its Wednesday night meeting. "All they're doing is buying time." ...

hating the characters? you're hating someone else's licensed, published Trek novel, game, or comic (or throw-away-line-history) (specifically, Gene Roddenberry's ;D)
If I was an average viewer: Why do I give a shit. Why do I care about the EU, Continuity, the timelines. I want my Kirk and Spock, and Uhura in a short skirt/Kirk in a ripped shirt (depends on the viewer), I don't care about EU and Continuity, I want more of the movies.
Is that whole little spiel suppose to make me feel bad? Cause what I'm seeing in that is just more "Love my fanwank ideals or your're not a real fan"

This bottle lasted me for about 5 months even though it is a very tiny bottle. This product didn't help with any large pores but what it did do was help minimize the small pores i had. It faded my acne scars and works sometimes in preventing pimples from coming. The cap is tight and secure which i liked but the product is hard to use. I had to pour the product onto my finger which made it difficult. it has a skinny tube when you open the cap, but sometimes too much product pours out on my finger or you have to wait a while for the oil to come out. It has a medicated smell to it which i didn't mind. overall, this product wasn't worth buying as there are cheaper alternatives.

A great product that you rub over red blemishes. It fades the spot over night and reduces the redness. I don't like how it doesn't come with an applicator- and that I have to use a Q-tip or finger to rub it onto my skin.
Doesn't work on extremely heavy acne-prone skin though. Also don't expect it to reduce giant pimples.

Brilliant, versatile product. Mix with your favourite body wash for body acne, and with witch hazel for a very effective toner. Good for spots, especially popped and bleeding ones.

This is a really great product that works great for spot prevention of pimples; it dries them out really well and does not leave blackheads. TBS tea tree oil is also great for itchy scalps, or just to cool your skin off at the end of a hot day. It can be used as a toner; although I wouldn't use it daily for this since it can be drying.

this works great on popped pimples or ones that require healing. i don't think it does so much for cysts or any other acne. the smell is overwhelming if you are not used to tea tree oil. personally, i think it smells alright!
Age: 44-55
Skin: Normal, Medium, Neutral

This makes pimples go away faster. This does not work for black heads or white heads. I have yet to find a product that gets rid of black heads and white heads and pimples usually you need separate products for this. However it does make the redness go away and that's always a plus,

GREAT STUFF!! I can see a big difference in the size of the pimple within 10 minutes!! =O This is great for those emergency situations when U have a pimple coming up, U apply this every hour and The pimple just can't survive AWESOME!!! AND IT'S 100% NATURAL

the product is good...i mean for first few weeks of usage..but after that it wont do any better...my huge pimple take around a week or more to recover & it leaves scar on my face...i think its good for those who have occasional breakouts...=)

I couldn't open the cap for the first month of owning the product. Bad design imo. Other than that, it helps me keep my pimps under control. It doesn't sting my face too much, but it feel refreshing instead. I use it to disinfect the pimps that I popped and to rid the redness. Also a lot of people are bother by the smell, for me not the case, it's a different scent, but nothing unbearable.

When seriously ill patients are unable to make health care decisions, surrogates assist in the decision-making process. Without advanced directives, substituted judgment is often used. Substituted judgment occurs when questions are asked to surrogates about their beliefs on what patients would want if they were able to detail them.
This article reviewed the concept of substituted judgment and highlighted alternative frameworks for health care decision-making.
Key Findings:
Community and narrative approaches are viable alternatives to substituted judgment in decision-making for seriously ill patients.

Hello again Adobe Community,
I'm losing my mind. I am trying to build a simple Android Camera App (using Flash Pro CS5.5), and none of the proper coding that I am able to find online (or in my newly purchased Second Edition of 'Android: Wireless Application Development') is of any help.
All I want to do is view the camera, and then be able to take the picture and have that newly taken picture be displayed until I either save it or discard it. I have my own graphics for the camera button, and I will have my own graphics for the save and discard buttons.
Please, can somebody help me. Nearly a week into working on this, and nothing that I can find is of any help!
I hope to hear from someone soon!

Penguin Pool Murder was the first film in the Hildegarde Withers-Oscar Piper series. The series consisted of six mystery-comedies based on novels or short stories written by Stuart Palmer. James Gleason played "Oscar Piper" throughout the successful series, which ran until 1937. "Hildegarde Withers," however, was portrayed by three different actresses. Edna May Oliver played her in the first three films, Helen Broderick, the fourth, and ZaSu Pitts, the last two. Kenneth Macgowan earned his first associate producer credit on this film.

Hollywood's Dilemma about Posthumous Releases: Audience's Reactions to Films Distributed after the Death of Their Stars Have Reflected Mixed Results. (Entertainment)
Gehring, Wes D., USA TODAY
WHEN JAMES DEAN DIED with two movies yet to be released, Warner Bros. Pictures saw catastrophe. Jack Warner bluntly observed, "Nobody will come and see a corpse." He could not have been more wrong. Both Dean films--"Rebel Without a Cause" (1955) and "Giant" (1956)--turned out to be major critical and commercial hits. There is no set pattern as to how an audience will respond to a picture released after the death of its star.
During the first half of the 1930s, celebrated humorist Will Rogers was arguably the most-popular figure in the movies. In fact, he reigned supreme in every entertainment medium of the time, from a daily newspaper column widely syndicated across the country to success in radio and on the stage. Moreover, his often politically tinged humor books were bestsellers that helped make him, to borrow a 1926 title, a "Self-Made Diplomat to His President." Not surprisingly, his 1932 support for Franklin Roosevelt was instrumental in getting the New York governor elected president of the U.S.
Given Rogers' many talents and interests, he had long embraced the infant aviation industry to get him around the country as quickly as possible. In August, 1935, he joined his famous flyer friend Wiley Post in an ill-fated flight to the USSR, by way of Alaska. Their plane crash deaths shocked the nation, with many commentators suggesting that not since the assassination of Pres. Abraham Lincoln had the country been so moved by a tragedy.
A nervous 20th Century Fox was sitting on two completed, but unreleased, Rogers films--"Steamboat 'Round the Bend" and "In Old Kentucky." While no one at the studio seriously considered shelving the pictures, there was concern that the public might find two posthumous releases in poor taste and stay away. Yet, just the opposite occurred. So many fans honored Rogers with their ticket-buying presence that these final movies helped make the humorist the top male box office draw of 1935. (He was only commercially bested by a diminutive newcomer named Shirley Temple.) Indeed, "Steamboat" and "Kentucky" proved so popular that Fox was soon rereleasing earlier Rogers films, such as the 1936 appearance of the 1933 "Dr. Bull."
The 1937 death from uremic poisoning as a result of cerebal edema of the original blonde bombshell, 26-year-old Jean Harlow, constituted a different dilemma for parent studio Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The actress died during the production of the horse racing picture "Saratoga," which also starred Clark Gable. MGM was initially afraid it would have to take a loss on the picture. Nevertheless, with the creative use of Harlow's standin, Mary Dees--showing merely a shoulder here or a backside there--enough footage was salvaged to release the movie. Despite these distractions, "Saratoga" still manages to be an entertaining picture.
Indeed, the film proved to be both a major critical and commercial success. However, whereas Rogers' fans seemed anxious to generate some sort of loving closure by way of his posthumous films, the box office clout of "Saratoga," at least in part, was of a more-macabre nature. Period commentators credited the high patron turnout to a genuine viewer curiosity as to whether they could differentiate between the Harlow and Dees footage. While there were undoubtedly many loyal Harlow fans in attendance, too, the movie's commercial success was not necessarily America's finest hour.
At this point, it might seem that any film fatality could be parlayed into a box office hit, but the next example of a major star dying before a movie's release quickly disproves this premise. The victim was Carole Lombard, the country's designated "Screwball Comedy Girl," the eccentric heroine of such classics of the genre as "My Man Godfrey" (1936) and "Nothing Sacred" (1937). Nicknamed the "Hoosier Tornado," she returned to her native Indiana in early 1942 to kick off America's first war bond-selling rally of World War II. Anxious to return to Hollywood and husband Clark Gable, she cancelled her train reservations and booked an airplane flight, which crashed in the mountains near Las Vegas. …

Butter Crackers
If you're the type to devour a sleeve of salted crackers with cold butter, pull up a chair – these pre-buttered crackers are for you. To eat by the stack.
I've always been a fan of homemade crackers – although most of us have made a batch or two of cookies in our lifetimes, we don't tend to run toward crackers. And yet the dough is just as easy – often more so; and the results just as delicious compared to the store-bought boxed kind as homemade cookies are, gooey and warm from the oven, in comparison to the carboardy ones that often taste of their own packaging.
Homemade is better – and cheaper still – and perfect for piling on cheese boards (party season coming up!) or nibbling in bed or crumbling into soup. I confess I ate the majority of these straight from the cookie sheet, and didn't bother with dinner.
Butter Crackers
Adapted from Epicurious.
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp. oat bran (optional)
1 Tbsp. sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt, plus extra for sprinkling
3 Tbsp. butter, chilled
1 Tbsp. olive or canola oil
1/4 cup water
1 egg
2 Tbsp. butter, melted
Preheat the oven to 400F.
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, oat bran, sugar, baking powder and 1/2 t. salt. Add the butter and oil and blend with a pastry blender, fork or your fingers until the mixture is crumbly. Add the water and stir until the dough forms a ball.
Let it rest on the countertop for 15 minutes, then roll out on a lightly floured surface to about a 1/4-inch thickness. Cut into shapes (a fluted round cutter mimics Ritz crackers) or squares with a knife and transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Poke the crackers with a fork. In a small dish, stir the egg with a spoonful of water and brush the crackers with egg wash. Bake for 5-8 minutes, until golden.

Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
We have the big holiday weekend coming up and the big four-game series to go with it. The Milwaukee Brewers lead the NL Central by a game over the St. Louis Cardinals and 3.5 up on our Cubs. The Brewers are fourth in the NL in runs scored...the Cubs 15th. On the flip side, they are 10th in Runs Allowed and the Cubs are third. As the saying goes, something has to give...
As you'd expect, the pitching matchups favor the Cubs the entire weekend - Seth McClung versus Dempster tonight, Suppan vs Zambrano tomorrow, Looper vs. Harden on Saturday and Mike Burns vs. Ted Lilly to close the series on Sunday.
Soriano will sit again tonight, but will be back at the top of the lineup tomorrow. Reed Johnson and Aramis Ramirez start a rehab assignment in Peoria tomorrow and should be joined by Angel Guzman in rejoining the team on Monday.
Tonight's lineup: Fuld (LF), Theriot, Lee, Bradley, Fox, Fukudome, Soto, Fontenot and Dempster.
Go Cubs!

is there a better example of feast or famine in all of baseball?
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Jake Fox?
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
The last 11 before the break at home ... 4 vs. MIL, 4 vs. STL.
Now would be a neat time to get some hot bats.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
No Baker?
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Just kidding.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Yes I think this is do or die for this team, well maybe not they could kind of split the games before the all-star break and basically be in the same position they are now, but if they want to make a move upward NOW is the time. Of course it could all go terribly wrong if they lose 9 out of 11 or something.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
What's the sound of 200 pounds of shit hitting the fan? MCCLUNG.
DLee and The Hammer have already crushed homers in the first, 4-0.
Cotts has TJ surgery
I did not realize he was hurt. Hope he comes back better than before. Otherwise he can go now....
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Mr Hands approve.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Mr Hands are helping me celebrate this win...

Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
haven't been this happy to hear "go cubs go" in a while.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Damn... to bad the Cubs didn't trade, or bench, or release Lee.

I can't believe I'm Chad's lover!
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Just watched CSN-Lou press conference. I heard him (and THIS IS NOT A QUOTE REAL NEAL) not really commit to not having Fuld in the game tomorrow.
Apparently Soriano will start, but Lou is enjoying Fuld's small sample size so far.
Nice to have a leadoff guy get on base with a 9-pitch sequence (then scoring) and play excellent LF.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Soriano just not helping the team.
Soriano has plenty of nine-pitch sequences. It just takes him three plate appearances to do so.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
:) So true.
I believe that Soriano may be the key though -- do you think we can win and advance in the playoffs with Soriano hitting at this level? I hope so (as I may not have too much faith in Soriano) but am not sure.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
It will very difficult for any team to do anything in the playoffs with their left fielder batting .175 and striking out in half his at bats.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
He's been really fun to watch so far, and it's too bad Soriano will probably get the start tomorrow... but that's probably the right move.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Well Fuld can play all three outfield spots. Bench Fukudome or Bradley, bat Fuld leadoff and move Soriano someplace hopefully useful for a game or two.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
I am operating under the theory we're just not going to flush $90 million down the drain at this point.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Cotts has TJ surgery?!
Did anyone post this before?
Anyway - I just noticed Cotts had surgery yesterday in Cinci with the famous Dr. Kremcheck...
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
He is f--ked
same dr who did wood
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
THIS team, Chicago Cubs 2009 is currently 2.5 games out. Good god this division sucks. Take 3 or more from the Brewers and let's get this season put back together.
Also, I was on the toilet flipping through my Fantasy Baseball Guide 2009 - Professional Edition magazine (please tell me nobody plays fantasy baseball professionally...) I got at the beginning of the fantasy season and decided to look some people up. Every player is listed with a little description. Kevin Gregg's entry was rather fun:
Lost the Marlins' closer job due to both injury and ineffectiveness, and given that he got it primarily due to circumstances rather than overwhelming ability, will probably have a difficult time getting another closing gig. That said, he has enough arm and history to take a stab at closing should the need arise. That make him (nice editing) worth an extra look come spring, anticipating the role slated to receive.
WINICK PAN: Blew nearly 1 in 4 save opportunities in 2008 and now will be pitching in the high pressure environment of Wrigley Field with Carlos Marmol a ready replacement (you sure about that?). Destined to be the punchline of another Cubs' joke when Jose Ceda becomes a star. (Ouch!)
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
When Jose Ceda becomes a star at the Nathan's hot dog eating contest?
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Sam fuld will start in center friday.
The question is where does he hit in order?
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
his ob% is way too low to leadoff, but he has shown he can K as well as hit for power. toss-up, leaning soriano.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
He bats leadoff........if he doesn't then you now know that Hendry not Piniella is running this team.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
there is a pretty low chance hendry is running lou or dusty or baylor or anyone else's team and lineup. this ain't the yanks and this isn't that roll-over torre.
hendry might have some pull over who's on the 25, but micromanaging a lineup from the GM chair is far from his style...and besides, i personally don't think lou would go for that crap. no matter how much torre glossed things over about "the boss" controlling his teams that is not the norm and not very respected by some.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
I agree. Hendry's style would be to trade Fuld to the Orioles today for a pair of C- prospects in A ball.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
with guzman, johnson and ramirez coming off the dl monday, who goes?
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Maybe Reed Johnson has come to the end of the line. I'm not sure what value he adds at this point vs. Fuld. Fuld has had two games batting leadoff. Johnson has not led off this season. Fuld has 20 SBs in 2009, Johnson has 1. Johnson has averaged 6-1/2 steals over six seasons.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Plus we have Soriano, so why would we need another leadoff hitter?
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Hart,Fuld, Fontenot
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
"Now the torch has been passed to Jeff Baker, an infielder acquired from Colorado for Class-A right-hander Al Alburquerque, who was also acquired in the Freel-Gathright deal."
That's Paul Sullivan explaining that Alburquerque has been a Cub for two months.
Alburquerque has been pitching in the Cub organization since 2006.
I do fact-checking before I post on this blog, but I guess the rules are looser at the Trib.
Meaningless error, except that it tends to marginalize Alburquerque, who was enjoying something of a breakout year and had earned the promotion to AA that the Rockies gave him immediately.

Anyway - I just noticed Cotts had surgery yesterday in Cinci with the famous Dr. Kremcheck...
E-MAN: Which means the Cubs will recall Cotts on 8/31 and immediately place him on the 15-day DL (just like they did with Rich Hill last year), making him (along with Chad Fox) a potential post-season roster exemption. (The Cubs won't put him on the 60-day DL unless their 40-man roster is full and they need his slot for another player). Then the Cubs will certainly non-tender Cotts on 12/12.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Thanks AZ PHIL. So, you are convinced that the Cubs will pull an appropriate roster non-tender, for once (with the Hendry regime) ;-)
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
Submitted by VirginiaPhil on Fri, 07/03/2009 - 10:15am.
Alburquerque has been pitching in the Cub organization since 2006.
COUSIN: Alberto Alburquerque was signed by the Cubs at the start of the International Signing Period in July 2003, and he has been pitching in the Cubs organization (off & on) since 2004 (he made his debut with the DSL Cubs in 2004, and missed the 2005 and 2008 seasons due to elbow and shoulder surgeries). In that way, he is a lot like Angel Guzman.
As I posted on a previous thread, Alburquerque was throwing mid-90's at Daytona, and was a candidate to get added to the Cubs 40-man roster post-2009. He projects similar to Marcos Mateo, the main difference being Mateo has a better slider, while Alburquerque has the better fastball.
Re: Cubs vs. Brewers to the DEATH!
For lous sake i hope soriano gets on base a couple of times
or lou is not gonna like his post game presser.
Personally i would have put fuld in center today.
I hope he was kidding
"I've never lost a ball in the sun," Bradley said.
That's an amazing statement coming from a guy who loses the ball as often as he does. My favorite incident was the ninth inning of game 1 of the 2006 ALDS when he "lost" the ball in the Metrodome roof and it fell for a triple. A's still managed to win 3-2.
Re: I hope he was kidding
My favorite incident was the ninth inning of game 1 of the 2006 ALDS when he "lost" the ball in the Metrodome roof and it fell for a triple.
There is a sun in the metrodome? And Bradley is not the first, or last, person to lose a ball in the roof at the metrodome.
Re: I hope he was kidding
Give it a rest. My comment in no way implied he lost the ball in the sun at the Metrodome. What part of he lost the ball in the roof did you miss???
As for Bradley never having lost the ball in the sun. What did he lose it in last month, the Metrodome roof?
Re: I hope he was kidding
Here's another Bradley Gem. Last April 21.
never lost a ball in the sun eh?

Geo Soto leaves the WSux and signs with the Angels who lost Chris Ianetta to the Mariners.
Freed... The Angels also promoted Bobby Scales from director of player development to special assistant
AZ PHIL- Is Clayton Richard a free agent or not? One site I see he is, on another no. MLB has him listed as a free agent, Cot's contracts says he is a FA, baseball-reference says he's not, but Cubs have him on active roster. I know that he is just short of MLB 6 years service by just like 15 days, but that doesn't always matter.
Except that he gave up Russell and McKinney for a half-season of Hammel...
Beane cam at least point and laugh at Hammel.
The genius Angelo traded Olsen at Martzs request
Maybe Theo will sign Shark just so he can call Billy Beane and say: "Let's see...Russell? Check. McKinney? Check. Hammel? Check. Ninja? Check. Any other deals?"
To be fair to Emery and Trestman the foreshadowing of last year started happening well before them with the failure or mismanaging of multiple draft classes forcing the team to overspend in a free agency market that is even worse than baseball. Kyle Long seems like a good pick but they traded away another good one in Olson because of Martz's stupidity and inability to change his offense to fit the team talent.
HAGSAG: I think Domonic Brown does fit the criteria of a reclamation project, but unless he is willing to accept a minor league contract with an NRI to Spring Training, I don't think the Cubs would be interested given where the Cubs are right now. A couple of years ago? Yes. But probably not now.
Brown would be better-off going to a club that is rebuilding and re-establish his value there, like Chris Coghlan did with the Cubs. And if he can re-establish his value, he could get traded to a contender at the trade deadline and take it from there.
"they just fade away"
(Except in the cases of no-fade lefties like Moyer, Orosco and Rich Hill.)
Amazing to me how quickly it fell apart under Trestman. Year 1, they were a Chris Conte brain fart away from making the playoffs. Year 2 -- coach, staff and GM all fired.
I am sure Jonathon Mota will be signed next.
AZ Phil, what is your thoughts on Domonic Brown as a reclamation project?
He also played LF in deference to Curtis Granderson.
Meh... other moves to make...hope to see a move or two soon.
I haven't seen much Bears football this year - difficult to watch the games out here, but the game I saw the week before I was watching in shock as I saw them actually make tackles. And Cutler has looked really good, too.
I guess people can quibble about play calling, but the team I saw is way more than 50% better coached (my only very minor disagreement with your comment).
Under Trestman, the team didn't do anything right. This team played like a well coached team when I saw them play the Rams.
"What is sometimes overlooked about Vogelbach because of his "bad body" and because he has struggled so much defensively is that he is a hard worker, has a great attitude, loves to play the game, and is very well-liked by his teammates, and while that may not seem important, teams do actually value stuff like that. "
As well they should. Replace a word here and there and you are describing any worker someone would hire.

December 1, 2015
DAYTON, Ohio (AP) - With interest building in the 50th anniversary of President John F. Kennedy's assassination, a museum near Dayton is stepping up the public tours of his presidential jet.
The Boeing 707 is at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force. The museum will now shuttle visitors to the plane four times a day and seven days a week through Dec. 1.
Visitors can see where people packed into the plane's sweltering state room to watch Lyndon B. Johnson, Kennedy's vice president, sworn in, with Jacqueline Kennedy alongside in the suit stained by her husband's blood.
The Dayton Daily News (http://bit.ly/1jizysn) reports that the museum has received more calls and national media coverage focused on the jet in recent days, with the 50th anniversary of the assassination coming on Friday.

This is similar to the Ica Ideal and the Goerz Tenax folding plate cameras that were made around 1920. The Ica would have the 5-pointed star and the Goerz would have the stylised 'CPG' logo.
The logo on the shutter speed dial can be seen on the same Compur shutter which is fitted to many Contessa-Nettel cameras from the same era.
Contessa-Nettel was formed in 1919. Later on (1926), they merged with Ica, Goerz and Ernemann to form Zeiss Ikon.
The serial number on the shutter gives a manufacturing date between 1914 and 1920. (see http://motamedi.info/serial.htm)
A lot of the components around this time were mixed and matched and cameras made in one country were sold with a different name in another country. Often, the name or model of the camera is stamped into the leather handle, but when they're this old, you sometimes won't be able to read it!
This is probably a French-made camera as it has a Berthiot lens (same era) and obviously was sold by Parisian camera vendor Photo Plait (of 35-39 rue Lafayette, Paris-Opera).
That's what I know about 'em
PS, it's worth nothing. Send it to me

Men held after rape, assaultComment on this story
Eastern Cape - Two men have been arrested for allegedly raping and assaulting a woman in Qombolo Village, Centane, Eastern Cape police said on Thursday.
The woman, 28, was walking home from her mother's house when she was attacked on Wednesday morning. The men allegedly took her to an old building where they raped her, said Captain Jackson Manatha.
"One of the suspects severely assaulted the victim with a stick around her head after they finished raping her," he said.
The woman went home and told her neighbours what had happened. They went in search of the men, aged 30 and 34, found them and alerted the police.
The men would appear in the Centane Magistrate's Court on Monday on charges of rape and assault, said Manatha. - Sapa
