At some point, you look at your roster, then look at yourself in the mirror and the repeat that 31 more times and ask yourself this question… When is chasing saves from the worst possibilities a bad idea? My best advice, as your advocate of bullpen swagger, is never. Realize the talent that is in the bullpen and say: is 1-2 saves really worth a waiver claim, a roster drop of someone else and a complete destruction of your rates and quite possibly your dignity? If you haven't guessed it, I am discussing the shatuation in the 'Nati. Just to get everyone up to speed on the demise, their (and keep in mind that it has only been two-plus weeks of games roughly) Hoover sucked. Jumbo is demoted to minors, Hoover back in and bad again, Cingrani more like Cingran-no. Now all the hype is on Caleb Cotham. Who has the time and rosterbatory rituals to have the right frame of mind to roster these guys from change to change? I get that if you are in a NL-only league, it makes sense to be on the ball, but in mixed league… well, these guys are poop. I was searching for a better word, but I can't, and poop it is. The combined ERA this year of Reds relievers in a save situation is over five. That, my friends, is not worth the stretch for the sexy total of one save as a team. Seriously, one whole save… you could have been rostering Ivan Nova and gotten the same total number so far. So anyone who likes the punishment, keep an eye on the health of Michael Lorenzen, as he could be next up. So what I am saying is: yes it's cool and swanky to be the first guy on your fantasy block to unlock the new closer somewhere, but use common sense. If a team is a pile of dung and will kill more stats then the assist, then, well, you already know my response because this is the end of the lede and I just went over it. Stick around for some rankings, general chicanery with words on a page, and hell, maybe a whole pack of lies wrapped around stats. Cheers!Please, blog, may I have some more?

A week into the season and everyone has basically contracted closer asthma. Breathe… I know it's tough from time to time to fathom that the fantasy kingdom that you drafted two weeks ago is coming crumbling down because Shawn Tolleson just wet the bed and is shaking the Walker Texas Rangers bullpen. He has guys behind him that have been gone over, which in most leagues that count pitchers who throw the bal,l should have been rostered. Namely Kela and Dyson. So what is all this bad karma at the beginning of the season good for, besides chasing saves? It is good for people who panic and drop the top set-up guys too early. Dellin Betances was dropped four times more then he was added this week. That is a coup for you, don't run to that, hop on a tricycle and find a hill to roll down as fast as possible. Early season turnover and panic buttons are what make your team weak in one department now, and especially strong in the next several weeks by "calculated" guessing. So with that, here is the first installment of the 2016 Closer Report with the changes and job winners from Spring Training newly nestled into their respective spots. I will tackle Holds and the set-up crews next week when we start seeing usage and match-up based stuff.Please, blog, may I have some more?
With the baseball season starting in the blink of seven-days-eyes, I figured it would be fitting since we all crunch drafts 'til the last possible moment. Waiting until the end isn't always a bad idea, you get the last news possible on injuries and job security. Bad thing is that you lose some of the sleeper appeal. By now, if you haven't heard of a guy who could be closing, there is a great possibility that he doesn't have a Sam Hill's chance of closing. Just facts. These guys aren't born yesterday and matriculate with a mastery of three pitches overnight. The bullpen folk have one job and that is to make a save situation stay a save situation. This holds true for holds guys, pun semi-intended. So the list is basically where it should be until we start seeing some production from the lads. The committee situations that exist in Milwaukee and possibly Philly will be that until someone gets the bulk of the load on his back. Which sounds gross, but from a fantasy perspective, you want a full orgy of saves on your closer. After all, quantity is the name of the game, that and continued success at it. It is like everyone else's job; you do good you stay. You do poorly, you get pink slipped and sent to middle relief-dom. So fingers crossed, or if you play the cuff odds, just simply uncross them and pray for the worst. Here is the last rankings of Closers and their hand-cuffs for the start of fantasy baseball version, 2.016…Please, blog, may I have some more?
No, you haven't stumbled onto a WebMd bait page. Well… this is an advisory blog, none the same, but we won't scare you into believing that you have clinical depression with every symptom. I mean, I've seen some other fantasy sites that attempt to advise on bullpen strategy. It's easy to throw stuff up about closers and bullpens and say this guy will fail because of this and that. Heck, I like watching Jeopardy and guessing at the stuff I don't know about either. Add in the fact that I remember my first beer… So this is one of the last pieces of the fantasy bullpen puzzle before we get down to brass tacks. The NSVH question… I always get it from the fantasy inspectors of the net of how and what to do about it. Do I stick with what I know, or do I go complete rover and draft whatever, whenever? That's why I am here, hopefully to quell all ills in the race for bullpen dominance. The NSVH leagues are tricky and can be described as: people don't know until they have to know. I know that really isn't a draft strategy that I am going to "learn" you with this post, since I am better than that and take pride in leading my disciples into reliever bliss. So go get a comfy seat upon the porcelain throne of fantasy knowledge and let me guide you, for I am the fantasy bullpen shepherd.Please, blog, may I have some more?
A bullpen battle is like watching a boxing match with a blind man in one corner, and a one-legged man in the other. The ole' mantra of never paying for saves is the cattle call of many Razzballians, but in leagues that we all pay, in terms of saves there has to be some semblance of order, and ADP plays a huge part in that. No one ever admits to paying up for saves, but when push comes to shove in your draft, more times than not, you are most likely jumping at the chance to own an elite closer. I love being the fifth guy to draft a closer. It allows me the extra round to grab another essential roster piece, and since I am awesome at my craft, I tend to get my pick of the litter of who I really want. Listen, not everyone pays for saves, but it isn't an awful thing to do. They do only really count for one category, with parts of another, but in reality, so does a hitter drafted in the eighth round. That eighth round product isn't going to give you, at best, a five share in a points league (minus Billy Hamilton). He is the same product that we are saying don't pay for and falls firmly into the SAGNOF sandbox. So I am here to tell you that paying for saves is okay, but within reason of course. Don't be a lemming and get sucked into a bidding war or a run scenario where it leaves you completely short after the draft without any saves to speak of. So here are some strategies and basic ideas I like to use for approaching saves based on formats and for giggles, we'll be looking at some ADP stuff after my advice. Cheers!Please, blog, may I have some more?
Welcome to the 2016 Razzball Team Previews! You'll find everything you need to know about each team to get yourself ready for the upcoming fantasy baseball season. And I mean everything, folks. We've got line-ups, charts, Slurpees, lube, a guide for beginner electricians, and even a cactus! Well, that's a lie. That's what Jay had last year sitting in front of him. This year? Um…a little less lube? Take that as you will. But hey, we've got teams to preview and questions to ask, so let's hop to it. We a very special guest for this post…Daniel Brim, to provide his take on what the team has in store this season. Now enough rambling, let's see what 2016 holds for the Los Angeles Dodgers!Please, blog, may I have some more?
What goes through J-FOH's head when he does these ranks? I'm glad you asked. Wait… you didn't ask? Are you sure? No? Not at all? Sheesh, thanks guys… and four girls. I'm going to be my usually contrarian self and tell you anyway. I'm looking at players from their floor to their ceilings over the next 3-5 years (and beyond). I'm looking at games played over the previous few seasons, projecting risk going forward, and predicting how they will age based on their skill set. A player whose value is heavily dependent upon speed will usually lose that speed going into the 30's and players with power will usually keep that a little bit longer. There are always guys who defy the odds like David "I never juiced" Ortiz or Adrian Beltre. They are a special breed that should never be slept on 'til the day they retire. There is science, stats, and anecdotal B.S., and then there are "those guys". Joey Bats and those sweet bat throws would fall into that class for me. Excuse me while I preach for a second. I love bat flips. I think they should be mandatory for any home run after the 7th, 6th for the Yankees. This is a kids game that is suppose to be fun and guys like Mad Bum need to either throw the punch or shut the front door. Any a-hole can stand there shouting with a team behind him. At least Robin Ventura had the cojones to try and fight. (I want that shirt!) Now that we have my major side track out of the way, let's move down to some words about the list before we get to the list. Note to self, take an english class at the local adult education center next year.

A few weeks ago, we looked at some interesting hitter stats over the last few years. If you didn't find the stats and trends that were highlighted in that article to be particularly interesting, at least you might have been mildly amused by the inclusion of names such as Jack Cust, Candy Nelson, and Silver Flint. Today, it's the pitchers' turn. Perhaps I can find an excuse to reference Cannonball Titcomb in this post. There's only one way to find out! (spoiler alert: he won't be mentioned again)
Just as I did in the hitter edition of this series, I'll be listing various statistics with little to no analysis so that you can be the judge of how relevant each statistic and/or trend is in regards to the 2016 season. This article focuses on pitchers only, and the stats that will be highlighted range from the basic (strikeouts, win-loss record, innings pitched, ERA, WHIP) to the slightly more advanced (K/BB ratio, LOB%, batted ball profile, SwStr%).
Let's get to it. Here are some interesting pitcher stats and trends to consider entering the 2016 fantasy baseball season:Please, blog, may I have some more?
One word about this top 100 for 2016 fantasy baseball, before I give you another 5,000 words. I'm going to avoid repeating myself from the position rankings in the 2016 fantasy baseball rankings. If you want to know my in-depth feelings about a player, then you need to go to his positional page, i.e., the top 20 1st basemen for 2016 fantasy baseball, the top 20 2nd basemen for 2016 fantasy baseball, the top 20 Gucci handbags for 2016– Ah, I almost got you. This post is meant to give you an idea where guys from different positions are in relation to each other. Since this post is only the top 100, there's more players where this came from. 400 or so, to be inexact. Next up, there will be a top 500. Then after that there will be a top 7,500, then a top 25,000, then a top 600,000, until we end up with a top kajillion in April. Or maybe I'll stop at the top 500. Yeah, that makes sense. Not to get all biblical on you, but this is the gospel. Print it out and take it to Mt. Sinai and it will say, "Win your 2016 fantasy baseball league, young prematurely balding man." Projections were done by me and a crack team of 100 monkeys fighting amongst themselves because there were only 99 typewriters. Somebody please buy Ling-Ling his own typewriter! Anyway, here's the top 100 for 2016 fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
With every first list or preseason edition of anything, there comes question marks. Lots of ifs and buts, with no real sound determination until we actual see the product. I am pretty sure Jane Austen's first attempt at Pride and Prejudice was an abomination because who knew if Elizabeth Bennett was up to the task of being wifey material? It turns out that I can win a bet and correlate anything into the bullpen situations of the current MLB teams. Until injuries, demotion or a better option arises, we have to go by two main instincts: former ability and common sense. So the list is based off of the news to date that we have gotten on all the potential closers to date and for gigg's I have ranked them accordingly. I have been doing bullpens for a long time and have been wrong on a few occasions, but I am not the manager or GM for the team pulling the strings, I am merely a fantasy writer. So here is the Spring training edition of the Closer rankings, their set-up men, and the cuffs we covet for fantasy in 2016.Please, blog, may I have some more?

Oh boy, queue up the motor heads and green haters. I can't wait for my electric car. It will be faster and more powerful than my gas cars and I'll never have to change the oil or spark plugs again.
I like electric cars. *checks passport*. Yep, still says "United States of America".
Nice to see an article which captures the very best of American ingenuity and can-do spirit. Oh, wait. It's just a brainless screed from a petrol-head who clearly doesn't give a damn if the planet cooks, as long as nobody takes his gas guzzler away.
A better title would be "Certain kinds of Americans Hate Electric Cars". The same ones who reject science, evolution, climate change, peak oil, environmental destruction, and everything else that might force them to confront their lifestyle choices.
A sad come-down from the optimistic days of "Tom Swift and his Electric Round-About".
That article is example number 2377 why I don't read Jalopnik. And I'm a self described gear-head who not too many years ago spent many a weekend at auto-crosses and track events. I love cars no matter what propels them, but that guy is just an idiot writing a fact-less inflammatory article on purpose, just for seo.
Nice troll on the headline, there, Rob. Did you have to take a shower afterwards?
Electric motors are better than gas engines. They last longer, require less maintenance, use fewer parts, and generally are more simple and elegant. However, the energy density of gasoline is so insanely high that commercially available batteries can't really compete at this time. So for want of a nail (and insane patent laws that prevent innovation in battery tech) posterity is lost.
Joel's article points this out – it has some truth in it, as well as some complete bullshit about the inefficiency of using the grid to power cars (it's much more efficient than individual gas engines, and is amenable to distributed power generation in the future). But it completely ignores the vast suffering caused by pollution, and skips over the obvious insanity of depleting a limited resource when better alternatives (sustainable biofuels, for one) are already available.
Where Joel goes completely off the rails is where he implies that by not buying an electric car you're making a sensible decision, and that because other people are just as short-sighted and unwilling to invest in new technology, you shouldn't either.
'where he implies that by not buying an electric car you're making a sensible decision'
Economically, personally, you are. It's $35K for a Leaf. Which is then half the cost per mile if you're in the 70 mile range, but you're never going to make up even close to that extra $15-20K. You can argue cheap subsidized oil hurts, but as the middle class schlub doing the buying, it doesn't really matter to me when buying whose perverse economic incentives are pushing what.
So that's why we need all you dreamers with money to spend the money and buy them now so we can drive the cost down. Do you own one yet?
Your last point is dead right. People DO need to spend money to drive the cost down. That's exactly why I already own a hybrid car, an electric lawnmower, and an electric tractor. Although admittedly I also own a gas tractor, and an SUV. All my vehicles put together are worth much less than $35K, incidentally, probably more like $24K total.
However, your economic analysis is way off. First of all, you're explicitly acknowledging the subsidies on gas, but ignoring the rather large federal tax credit (and, in many places, local incentives) associated with the Leaf and other socially responsible vehicles. That invalidates your numbers right off the bat. Remember a tax CREDIT is like receiving cash, it's not the same as a deduction.
Second, as I mentioned, I own a 2002 Prius, which I bought in 2001. It has over 100,000 miles on it, and I expect it to last for around 300,000 before I break it down for parts. I have already saved enough money on gas to more than pay for the difference in cost between this car and any comparable vehicle I could have bought at the time. The difference is even more striking with the tractor – it's a 1973 machine, which works perfectly, and saves me a couple dollars a week in operational costs – multiply that by 39 years, eh? My electric lawn mower is 20 years old – and the total maintenance cost over that time has been zero dollars, since I sharpen the blade myself. It costs less than five cents in electricity to mow the yard, versus a couple of dollars in gasoline (plus oil, plugs, air filters, etc. that I don't need). Real world experience trumps theory.
The third thing you've excluded is the societal costs of pollution from cars. My grandfather and uncle both died of lung cancer. Since about 1900, in fact, it's been commonplace for men in my family to die slowly, horribly, of cancer. Hiow much is it worth to you, so see one less loved one crying and gasping for breath? I've already sat by enough bedsides, thanks anyway.
Still, the true economic problem with alternatively powered vehicles is the up-front investment cost. They pay you back, sure, but if you can't earn the money to buy one in the first place that's not much help.
A $7500 tax credit certainly brings the price down – I had no idea the Federal subsidy was that high on them. So say $10K more, you could make that back in about 10 years at the rate I buy gas, which makes it reasonable if you keep it that long. I do – but I'm not sure how many people are willing.
I'm purposely leaving societal costs out of it because you've got to convince people who are being purely selfish that this is the superior choice right now.
So I agree it's all up front cost.
Fair enough, and I see your point about the externalized costs. You can't force people to care.
Glad I could point out the federal assistance. It's so rare that I can show someone something my government's actually doing right! Well, not completely wrong, anyway… they need to penalize gas vehicles more, and use the proceeds to further subsidize sustainable vehicles, and that would solve the disparities in the economies of scale (that the government created in the first place, for reasons that were good at the time).
Well he does make one valid point. A car that is limited to 100 miles or less doesn't work for a good percentage of the US population. And that is a technology issue, which he does point out is being worked on.
The reality is the price to product ratio here. Electric cars suck … in comparison to equally priced petrol cars. If the Tesla Roadster was being sold for $25k no one would be having this discussion. You might could go as high as $35k before anyone complained about the price.
It's interesting that most trains use electric motors, even if they are powered by fossil fuels. There is something to be said about having all your torks right at launch.
That is not a valid point. According to a 2001-2002 study by the US Dept of Transportation, the average driver drives only 29 miles per day.
According to a 2003 study by the US Department of Transportion, 78 percent of drivers drive less than 40 miles per day to and from work. Only 8 percent of drivers drive more than 70 miles per day to and from work. I would guesstimate from the stats that about 90% of drivers would be covered by a daily battery charge of 100 miles (your example) or even 73 miles (his example). A majority of drivers would even be fine with the 40 mile charge on the Chevy Volt that the author also mentions.
And yet those averages still don't work.
Just because it's a 30 mile round trip to work doesn't mean I MIGHT not need the car for other purposes. I'm not saying I drive another 70 miles the rest of the day everyday, but what if I go out to lunch and maybe the wife springs dinner plans out with a few friends – that live 30 minutes away. Now I am driving at the edge of that 73 miles.
If you are buying an electric car as simply as your commuter/work car then that's fine. But what if you are single? Do you need two cars then? I was even thinking that my retired parents could use an electric car, that was until I realized they drive to the next county over to take care of my grandfather. That alone would push their limits on the 73 miles.
I'm sorry but he is right. Unless you live in a more urban developed area or this is a single purpose vehicle and you have another form of transportation to supplement it, then an electric car might not be right for you. For most people the economic reality out weighs their desire to "be green". A new Toyota Corolla cost $17,700 while the Leaf is $27,700 (after tax savings). Assuming a gallon of gas cost $5, and the Corolla gets 30mpg, then you'll get 60k miles of usage out of the Corolla before it costs as much as the Leaf. And that doesn't take into account maintenance on the Corolla, installation of the charger for the Leaf, or the electricity consumed by it.
I do think electric/hybrid cars need to be on the market, their technology and presence has to start somewhere. Like I said in my original post, if an electric car like the Leaf cost $20k and had a range of 200 miles many many more people would be interested in it. However the technology just isn't there yet.
The problem isn't the car, the problem is the energy source. Chemical batteries suck… when compared to burning liquid hydrocarbons. And we're used to having that 10-20 gallons of concentrated energy in our vehicles.
Electric motors are VASTLY superior to geared internal combustion engines in both power to weight ratio and in maintenance and mechanical wear.
Yeah, so they've hired him to troll for them?
I'm glad I'm not the only one who hates the article.
The line :
"I won't even try to advocate for diesel-powered small cars like those wacky Europeans love "
Just shows how little this chap really knows. I've got a 2litre BMW diesel with better MPG than the petrol version and equivalent performance if not better. The latest 535 diesel (3.5litre) can be chipped to the sort of power where it starts to make the BMW M3 look embarrassed…
Us Europeans generally hate small cars, but paying about 4000 times more than the Merkins on fuel kind of makes us have to have smaller cars (or at least more efficient ones. My 2l large diesel has better MPG than a 1.2l small petrol car I used to have…)
What he seems to fail to realise is that there have only been mass market electric cars for a few years. Go back in time to when the Model T first came out and count the number of people arguing that there was no fuelling infrastructure and if you ran out of petrol, you couldn't wheel the car to the side of the road and let it refuel on grass and you couldn't fit a sheep in the back of your car. etc….
Personally I'm looking forward to a fuel cell powered 4X4 with 4 independent motors. No gear boxes to break, no complication for limited slip/locking diffs, independent axle articulation, etc. Just make it :electric, make it big, make it fast, give it a fuel store equivalent to a fossil fuel burner and I'll have one!
The problem with diesel in the US is that it's not available everywhere. It took me a while to realize this since I've never lived more than a few miles from a major interstate. Since trucks and heavy equipment here uses diesel, it's easy to think that diesel is ubiquitous if you live in an area where it's common, but you may get a rude surprise if you are on a cross-country trip and do not stick to the interstates. You may very well find yourself out of fuel and no source for a few hundred miles along your route.
For a few hundred miles? Not if you know where to look. In rural areas, even far from the interstate, diesel is widespread – the pump may be off in the corner, unlit, but it's there.
In normal stations, on the car side, there may only be one diesel pump, so you have to scan for the island that has an extra filler, but that's not that big of a deal.
It's only in dense cities where it can be hard to find at least one diesel pump, really, and it doesn't take a few hundred miles to get to a station that carries it.
And, in my car, I have 1.9 gallons left when the low fuel light comes on. That gives me quite a while to find fuel – can be as far as 95 miles.
I do like to think of electric cars as a fuel abstraction layer.
That's an elegant way to put it. Bravo.
I was reading through this waiting for the punchline at the end. I thought he was being sarcastic to make a point. But, alas, in the end… he's yet another misinformed, unimaginative American idiot.
In the meantime, to those of you out there that still have your critical thinking skills intact even within the middle of this American storm of stupidity… don't fret, there's a response to these idiots…
Find the others… support the others…
Anyone calling Joel an idiot or uninformed should hand in their user ID at the gate. You're contractually obligated to love him, because he is awesome.
Can I love him for being awesome and still think he's uninformed?
This is my problem, having been on BB for years. I've always liked Joel, but what the hell was this stupid, uninformed article?
I said misinformed, not uninformed.
Excuse me mister pedantypants!
Of course it is always possible to buy an electric car but not the battery. The batteries remain the property of the manufacturer and a depleted battery is simply swapped for a recharged battery at refuelling stations as and when necessary. This reduces both the cost of the car and refuelling times. Has this not been suggested in the US? It has here in the UK.
My wife bought a new car a year ago. I wanted her to hold out for an electric car but they came too late. She bought a VW Jetta and it has been no end of trouble. It has an automatic gearbox with seven forward gears, two clutches and (by the feel of it) about ten million lines of code. Yesterday its first clutch was replaced under warranty. In the past year it has had three firmware upgrades.
Petrol cars are drowning in complexity, like piston engined aircraft before the gas turbine came in. They have crossed the complexity event horizon, which is why the Jetta is stuffed at 15k and my 94 Townace is just run in at 120k.
When we give up on the VW I want to get a Leaf.

Focus on: The running game

The "Path to the Draft" crew goes round by round to grade various teams and their draft picks. Watch
In honor of Marshawn Lynch indicating his retirement, take a look at some of his best plays with the Seattle Seahawks. Watch
Latest Photos
The 2016 rookie class arrived at VMAC on Thursday and were fitted for their first practice as Seahawks at Rookie Mini Camp starting Friday. View
Now a look at the defensive side of the field during phase two of voluntary offseason workouts, which features new faces like J'Marcus Webb and the return of a familiar one, Chris Clemons. View
On October 5, 2010, the Seahawks acquired Marshawn Lynch and in his nine years in the NFL Lynch has made some truly spectacular plays, rightfully earning the nickname Beast Mode. View
When it came to the running games, the Seahawks' matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday was a study in contrasts.
First, the good news. After rushing for only 44 yards against the Rams in St. Louis last Monday night, the Seahawks went for 198 against a Buccaneers' defense that entered the game at CenturyLink Field allowing an average of 94.6 rushing yards to rank No. 7 in the league.
"We basically ran the same plays, we just really executed better much better," Carroll said on Monday during his weekly day-after Q&A session with the media.
But there was more to it than Lynch going Beast Mode. Robert Turbin, Lynch's backup, had 37 yards on eight carries for a 4.6-yard average; while quarterback Russell Wilson carried six times for 60 yards to match Lynch's 6-yard average. And then there was the line play.
"Our guys really did a great job of blocking," Carroll said after the game.
Monday, he expanded on that, offering, "We played really well and handled their movement and stuff. This was a team that really slanted and blitzed and pressured a lot. But really, you could see it in Wednesday's practice last week – the sense of urgency. We were really disappointed with what happened in St. Louis.
The cause-for-concern news, however, is that the Seahawks have allowed 405 rushing yards in their past two games after allowing an average of 91.6 in their first six games.
"We were sloppy in our run fits, again," Carroll said. "Unfortunately we missed some reads on a couple of new plays that they ran, did a nice job in changing up. And we weren't as sharp. … We're just off a little bit and we have not fixed it in these two weeks, obviously, with that many yards being run. We've got to keep working hard at it.
"Big, dedicated effort, because we don't want to go that way. We've had 38 runs (against the Bucs) and 37 runs (against the Rams) the last two weeks. That's because it's available. They wouldn't run it that many times if we were playing it better. So we've got work to do." Read

SAN FRANCISCO The U.S. judge weighing the constitutionality of gay marriage in a San Francisco courtroom on Wednesday will ask how weddings between gays and lesbians could undermine marriage between men and women.
The case to overturn California's ban on gay marriage, approved by voters in 2008, is based on the argument that it denies equal rights to same-sex couples. But it may turn on whether voters had a legitimate, reasonable reason for their decision or were motivated by discrimination.
Closing arguments will be held on Wednesday in the case, which began on Jan. 11, and is likely to be appealed all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court.
District Court Chief Judge Vaughn Walker set the agenda for closing arguments with a long list of questions including whether there was a good reason, or rational basis, to maintain marriage exclusively for opposite-sex couples.
"Voters' unfounded and discriminatory stereotypes are not a substitute for proof that a law actually furthers a legitimate state interest," wrote gay rights lawyers Ted Olson and David Boies, who faced off in the 2000 Supreme Court decision that put George Bush in the White House.
They argue that same-sex couples who marry grow healthier and wealthier, their children are better of, and the state benefits from the expanded definition of marriage.
Opposite-sex marriage are not affected at all and the California constitutional amendment limiting marriage to a man and a woman -- similar to provisions in the vast majority of U.S. states -- is based in moral indignation and hate, they conclude.
Charles Cooper, the chief lawyer defending the ban known as Prop 8, argues that gay marriage would, or at least reasonably could, weaken the institution of marriage by robbing it of "special encouragement" to stay together and raise children.
"These changes are likely to reduce the willingness of biological parents, especially fathers, to make the commitments and sacrifices necessary to marry, stay married, and play an active role in raising their children," Cooper wrote.
A ruling in the case is expected within weeks.

Advanced Price Tickets To Aaron's Dream Weekend On Sale Today; Savings Include $10 Off Regular Pricing Plus Kids Free Options
Celebrate Dale Jr.'s Daytona 500 Victory with Special Talladega "Two for $88" Package
TALLADEGA, AL – After Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s thrilling Daytona 500 victory Sunday, all eyes have shifted to NASCAR's biggest, baddest and most competitive race track—Talladega Superspeedway—for The Aaron's Dream Weekend, May 2-4. And, several savings opportunities begin today!
A special Dale Jr. "Two for $88" ticket package (named for the No. 88 car Dale Jr. drives) and Advanced Price tickets to the Aaron's Dream Weekend go on sale today—Monday, February 24. Fans who choose to buy early benefit from savings in nearly every seating area at the track and the opportunity to score a free weekend FanVision rental as well.
Sunday's Daytona victory makes Earnhardt Jr.—the only driver in history to win four consecutive NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races at Talladega—a prohibitive favorite for the Aaron's 499. In honor of NASCAR's Most Popular Driver, Talladega Superspeedway is offering fans the incredible $88 deal for two Anniston frontstretch grandstand tickets to the Aaron's 499 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race—a total savings of $52. Earnhardt Jr., who has won the Aaron's 499 twice in his career (2002-03), most recently was a runnerup at Talladega Superspeedway last October.
In addition to the Earnhardt Jr. Package, other great deals are available today:
- Advanced Pricing on all seating options until April 3, featuring $10 saving on regular pricing for all Sunday tickets and $5 on all Saturday tickets.
- For the first time at Talladega, kids 12 and under sit for free in every section of the grandstands on Saturday and in multiple locations on Sunday. The remaining locations are reduced a minimum of $50 for Sunday kids' tickets.
- Purchase any Two-Day Tower ticket package for Saturday and Sunday and receive $10 off during the Advanced Price period. A free FanVision rental will be included with the purchase, which gives fans all the track action and more in a digital handheld device.
Action-packed racing extends throughout the weekend with the ARCA Racing Series International Motorsports Hall of Fame 200, the Aaron's 312 NASCAR Nationwide Series race and NASCAR's new "group" qualifying for the Aaron's 499 on Saturday (May 3). The weekend concludes with the Aaron's 499 on Sunday (May 4). Friday will be a full day of activity with practice sessions for all three series, plus group qualifying for the Aaron's 312 and ARCA event.
"Our fans can witness Dale Jr. attempt to win his second superspeedway race on the schedule—the Aaron's 499—with unbelievable pricing options," said Talladega Superspeedway Chairman Grant Lynch. "We have the exceptional 'Two for $88' package, plus Advanced Price tickets now available with astonishing savings. No other track offers kids free options like we do. These are great reasons to visit Talladega in May, but the biggest reason of all is that a race at NASCAR's Most Competitive Track is unlike anything else you've ever experienced. Buy your tickets now to save money and get the best seats in the house for this memorable weekend."
The last time a driver won the season-opener and then went on to win in the Aaron's 499 was six-time Sprint Cup Champion Jimmie Johnson in 2006. Other drivers to pull off the feat include: Jeff Gordon (2005), Davey Allison (1992), Bill Elliott (1985), Cale Yarborough (1984), Buddy Baker (1980) and Pete Hamilton (1970).
With hundreds of acres of free camping, brand new large Sprint Vision video boards positioned along the frontstretch, and the greatest infield party in NASCAR for the Saturday Night Infield Concert, there will be no reason to miss out on the BIGGEST event of the year. On the track, thanks to NASCAR's new Championship format and its emphasis on winning, Talladega's unpredictability will be amplified this year, with all 43 drivers battling it out to the finish for a chance to make it in the year-end Chase for the Sprint Cup.
NASCAR returns to Talladega Superspeedway in 2014 with the Aaron's Dream Weekend, which is set for May 2-4. The NASCAR Nationwide Series and ARCA Racing Series will take to the track on Saturday, May 3 while NASCAR's Sprint Cup Series machines take the green flag on Sunday, May 4.

Defiant Sinn Fein supporters turn out for unveiling of mural portraying Gerry Adams as a 'peacemaker' as police continue to question the 65-year-old
- Hundreds of Sinn Fein supporters attend rally calling for the release of Gerry Adams
- Adams is being questioned over the 1972 murder of Jean McConville
- Martin McGuinness described the arrest as 'politically biased and partisan'
- The Sinn Fein leader denies any involvement in the abduction and murder
Hundreds of Sinn Fein supporters took to the streets of Belfast to protest against the continuing detention of their leader Gerry Adams.
The 65-year-old politician is being questioned in connection by the PSNI in connection with the 1972 kidnap and murder of mother-of-ten Jean McConville.
However, republicans in Northern Ireland believe that the arrest is politically motivated and designed to disrupt SInn Fein's local and European election campaign in the Irish Republic.
Sinn Fein's Martin McGuinness addresses the crowd on the Falls Road in Belfast where he claimed that the arrest of his party colleague was 'politically motivated'
Thousands of Sinn Fein supporters turned up to the unveiling of the mural to Gerry Adams on the nationalist Falls Road in Belfast who is currently being questioned by PSNI detectives
Protesters held placards with a photograph of Mr Adams with Nelson Mandella under the banner 'defend the peace process'
The rally on the nationalist Falls Road was to unveil a mural of the Sinn Fein president as a 'peacemaker'.
The mural was painted during the week as PSNI detectives continue to question Mr Adams in connection with the murder.
Addressing the crowd, Mr McGuinness said this week represented the 'dark side' of policing.
He said: 'These people want to settle old scores whatever the political cost'.
Mr Adams strenuously denies any involvement in the abduction and murder of Mrs McConville, who was taken from her Belfast home after being accused of being an informer.

Her body was buried on a beach in Co Louth in the Irish Republic where it was recovered in 2003.
However, this week's developments have threatened the continuing success of the peace process with Sinn Fein threatening to withdraw support from the PSNI if Mr Adams is charged with any crime.
Mr McGuinness said: 'We worked very hard to reform policing. Sinn Fein's negotiations strategy succeeded in achieving new policing arrangements but we always knew that there remained with the PSNI an embittered rump of the old RUC (Royal Ulster Constabulary).
'No police force is immune from criticism if it is acting in a politically biased and partisan fashion.
arrest of Gerry Adams is evidence that there is an element within the
PSNI who are against the peace process and who hate Gerry Adams and Sinn
'They are what the reformers within the PSNI have described to us as the dark side.
'They are small in number but very influential. This group is working to a negative and anti-peace process agenda and are actively involved in political policing.
Sinn Fein's allegations have been dismissed by Northern Ireland's First Minister Peter Robinson, Justice Minster David Ford and the Northern Ireland secretary Theresa Villiers.
Mr Forde described the arrest as 'entirely appropriate'.
Mr McGuinness described Mr Adams as 'his leader' and 'his friend' while addressing the crowd on the Falls Road in Belfast
The crowd gathered in Belfast after Mr Adams spent a third night in custody in connection with the murder investigation
Mr McGuinness told the assembled crowd that case against Mr Adams is based on 'hearsay, gossip and newspaper articles'
Mr McGuinness told supporters: 'In my view this is a failed attempt at the replay of the effort in 1978 to charge Gerry Adams with membership of the IRA. That case was based on hearsay, gossip and newspaper articles. It failed then and it will fail now.
'Thirty-six years later those within the PSNI who are hostile to the peace process are using the same old dirty tricks. They are deliberately and cynically exploiting the awful killing of Jean McConville and the grief and hurt inflicted on her family. There is a small cabal in the PSNI who have a different agenda, a negative and destructive agenda to both the peace process and Sinn Fein.
'We under the leadership of Gerry Adams will not allow this element to succeed.
'Gerry Adams is my friend, Gerry Adams is the leader of Sinn Fein and, in my opinion, Gerry Adams stands head and shoulders above all of those who helped build this peace process.'
Northern Ireland's Justice Minister David Ford described the arrest of Mr Adams as 'entirely appropriate'

How Much Are We Spending On Energy?
- Posted by TheArmoTrader
- on December 15th, 2012
How much does the typical American spend on energy? Looking at hard nominal numbers tells us nothing. To say that you were spending $20 for gas in the 1960s vs $70 now is not analysis. What is important is to look at how much is spent relative to something (income, expenditures, etc).
Luckily, we have the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) report. Using the quarterly data provided, I created the chart below. It shows Energy Goods & Services as a percent of the PCE. As you see, despite rising nominal costs in energy, the average American is not really devoting more & more to energy costs (as a percent of all costs).
For what it's worth, given the collapse in Gasoline prices (down 14% Quarter To Date) over the past few months, I expect this chart to be lower in Q4 of this year. Although, the rising price of natural gas (up 12% QTD) might effect the drop in expenditures somewhat.
Energy Expenditures as a Percent of PCE
(Note: 6.00% threshold is the level Professor Jim Hamilton has determined in which Spending habits start to change.)

What problem are you trying to fix today?
Thank you for helping make our site better.
PartSelect Number PS298522
This part works with the following brands: GE, Hotpoint & Kenmore.
This part fixes the following symptoms:
Shiimmed up the door unscrewed top and bottem hinges and replaced the bottem assembly. Note, if you do this replace the entire assembly because the hinge itself has a cam which is built into the hinge, therefore you must replace it also.
Help other customers find the most helpful instructions.
Were these instructions helpful?
The PartSelect web site was able to direct me right to my GE double door frig using the model number. I called in to order the parts that were worn out with some operator assistance finding out all parts were available to my surprise. I received the parts in just a few days. I blocked the door up with some scrap lumber allowing me to take the old hinge off being careful to watch where the old parts were located. I reassembled the new hinge. It all took about 30 minutes and about $40. If I would have called a service repairman it would have easily cost me $100 and with a lot less satisfaction. This is the second time I have used PartSelect with similar results.
I emptied the frige door of all the goods and unsrewed 3 screws in the top of the door. I lifted the door off the shaft and installed the new parts. I set the door back down on the shaft and reattached the screws in top of door. It took longer to empty the door and restock it than it did to replace the part.
Note: I was not aware that the Cam Riser came with the Hinge Assembly, and did not need the part.1)Removed all food from right refridge door, then removed all shelves etc.2)Removed phillips screw holding protective plastic cap on upper hinge, then removed cap.3)Removed upper hinge using socket (to loosen and tighten) and nut driver, then removed door.4)Removed Old hinge assembly, replaced with new using socket and nut driver5)Removed Old Door Shim Cam & Door Hinge Shim from bottom of Door, then replaced with new parts.6)Re-Installed Door, adjusting the top hinge for door to close properly, then put shelved and food back.
Ordered the parts from the parts braekdown on partselect on Thursday, received the parts on Monday and installed them Monday nite.Removed the top hinge, then lifted the door off. replaced the shim and closing cam ,then put the door back on.

Publishers are making the investment in native ads and sponsored content because the engagement metrics show a favorable reader experience. While the signs point to native ads being here to stay, publishers still have a lot of room to improve and optimize the native ad experience before it has long-lasting appeal. One opportunity that publishers can take to enhance their native ad program is by delivering a custom site search experience that helps advertisers reach their target audience while also showing fast and relevant results to readers. Here are three ways to successfully incorporate native ads into your reader's search experience.
Eileen Mullan
Nov 07, 2011
"Content marketing" is a blanket term that describes the process of creating and sharing relevant brand information in hopes of engaging current consumers and attracting new ones. Also referred to as branded content and custom publishing, in the internet age, content marketing is the act of relaying this valuable information, such as the launch of a new product or service, via the web to favorably influence consumer behavior. Content marketers believe that sharing specialized content leads to a better informed consumer, and a better informed consumer yields more profitable results.
Content marketing techniques differ from traditional "interruption" based marketing practices such as the radio and television commercials that have become staples in our everyday lives. Marketing expert David Meerman Scott says in his blog, WebInkNow, "Prior to the web, organizations had only two significant choices to attract attention: Buy expensive advertising or get third-party ink from the media. But the web has changed the rules. The web is not TV. Organizations that understand the New Rules of Marketing & PR develop relationships directly with consumers like you and me. That costs zero."
The most pertinent examples of current content marketing tools are newsletters, video tutorials, and blogs. For instance, offering a subscription to a weekly or biweekly newsletter, like the ECXtra, is a perfect avenue to provide consumers with timely, relevant information, and subsequently strengthen the relationship between a consumer and a particular brand.
Social media is another popular content marketing tool. Just look at Facebook. A July 2011 report published by comScore showed that Facebook has approximately 160 million visitors each month - about 3 out of every 4 internet users - with the majority of them visiting the site on a daily basis. This is a golden opportunity for content marketers. A piece of content published through a Facebook fan page, which users voluntarily subscribe to, ultimately ends up in that users NewsFeed, thus expanding a brand's customer reach. ComScore notes that popular brands such as Starbucks, Coca Cola, and Disney have all had tremendous success with content marketing through Facebook, as each boasts more than 20 million fans as of July 2011.
The key to successful content marketing is offering credible, specialized content that consumers want. Content marketing is not selling. Content marketing campaigns usually mix the content a consumer seeks most with periodic promotional material.
Most internet-savvy consumers are looking for an answer to a specific problem, not pop-up, flashing advertisements. It does not matter whether a consumer receives information through a newsletter, blog, or social media site, if the published content does not cater specifically to their needs, it is useless. As detailed by ContentMarketingToday.com, to produce effective targeted- content, content marketers must first and foremost become fully knowledgeable about a customer's company, product, and market.
While many in the marketing industry predict that content marketing through social media will continue to produce positive results in the future, others see a renaissance in more "traditional" content marketing methods, such as email. Some believe social media will lose its novelty and become just another standard content marketing tool.
Other experts point to real-time marketing, where content is published as it happens, and video marketing, as the new game changers. In addition, as more and more consumers turn to their tablets and smartphones for information, content marketing will shift its course and focus on creating content for mobile devices and apps.

Invicta FC has added former Strikeforce bantamweight champion Sarah Kaufman to their next card facing off against Kaitlin Young on Oct 6.
Invicta FC officials announced the new bout on Monday.
Kaufman returns to action following a tough submission loss to current Strikeforce bantamweight women's world champion Ronda Rousey in August. The loss snapped a three fight win streak, but now Kaufman looks to start a new run with her fight in October.
Facing Kaufman in her Invicta FC debut will be former Elite XC competitor Kaitlin Young.
Young has already appeared twice in the Invicta FC cage, but she's still searching for her first win after a draw in her debut and a loss to Liz Carmouche in her last bout.
A powerful striker fighting out of Minnesota, Young will face Kaufman with a chance to get back on the winning track against one of the top women's fighters in the sport.

Customer review by one josh
Used them for 2011 hunting season was very pleased but in 2012 the first day hunting they fogged up on the inside and won't go away. Hopefully their is lifetime warranty like my Nikon scope has then it won't be so bad. But realistically I need binocs that I can use for multiple years and won't break down in the beginning of hunting season. Now I got to waste time and money to fix or replace them when I should be hunting. I hunt in Washington where its very wet so when they claim they're water proof they need to be water proof right!!!
Customer review by Alan
These compact binoculars are very bright in low light and quick to focus on the subject compared to others I've tried. They have held up to a lot of rugged off-road ATVing and hiking. I like these so much I bought another pair.
