United We Fall
Is David Moyes to blame for the collapse of Manchester United? Or is it all Sir Alex Ferguson's fault?
David Moyes' account of the day he got the Manchester United job foreshadowed so much that was to follow, in a way that seldom happens in real life.
Moyes says that last April he was out shopping with his wife, Pamela, when his phone rang.
"Where are you?" said Sir Alex Ferguson.
"I'm out with my wife," said Moyes.
"Can you drop over to the house?" said Sir Alex.
Moyes, the longtime manager for Everton, wondered what Ferguson wanted. He told Pamela: "It's either he wants me to take somebody on loan, or he's come to buy one of my players."
Moyes left Pamela at a local shopping center and drove to Sir Alex Ferguson's mansion. He was nervous because he was wearing jeans and a T-shirt. "I'd never ever go to a meeting with Sir Alex with a pair of jeans on. ... I can't do this!" he remembers thinking.
Sir Alex ignored Moyes' casual outfit and got straight to business: "I'm retiring. Next week. You're the next Man United manager."
"So I didn't get the chance to say yes or no," Moyes later said. "As you can imagine, the blood drained from my face."
Two things strike you about Moyes' story: At no point was he in control of what was happening. And when he sought to describe his feelings when he learned he had been handed the biggest job in English football, he reached for a cliché that signifies terror.
* * *
The metaphor might not have been adroit, but it was at least truthful. Lately the blood in Moyes' face appears to have gone on permanent leave. The cameras love to linger on the pale, haggard figure in the Manchester United dugout, eyes round with dismay beneath hairless brows whose wrinkled skin betrays every twitch of anxiety.
The horror is unrelenting. Nothing works.
Last Tuesday, Manchester City came to Old Trafford. Knowing that City at their best are an irresistible attacking force, Moyes had devised a tactical system that he hoped would prove an immovable object. Everyone knew this was United's last chance in domestic competition to show some defiance, to salvage some tatters of pride from the wreckage of the season.
City kicked off and swarmed forward. In 25 seconds, they had four players in United's penalty area. In 35 seconds, David Silva had their first shot. In 41 seconds, Samir Nasri had a second shot. In 43 seconds, Edin Dzeko sent a third shot high into United's net. It was the fastest goal any visiting team had scored at Old Trafford in the Premier League era.
The match finished 3–0 to City, making 2013–14 the first season in United's history when they have lost both home and away to their rivals, City and Liverpool. They are guaranteed their worst-ever points total in the Premier League, having already suffered a record 10 defeats, and they will fail to qualify for the Champions League (if they don't win the whole thing this year) for the first time in 19 seasons.
United are 18 points behind the league leaders, Chelsea. They have scored 18 goals at home, the same total as Fulham and Cardiff, who occupy the bottom two places in the table. For every three goals United have scored at home, Manchester City have scored eight.
Over the past 15 seasons, United have won on average 77 percent of their home matches, taking 46.7 points at home out of the 57 available in a season. In the past five seasons they have been even more dominant, taking on average 50 out of 57 points at home. This season, they've won 40 percent of their home matches, taking 21 of 45 points.
Forget barbarians at the gates. They've come through the walls and the city is in flames.
* * *
A few weeks after the scene in Sir Alex Ferguson's house, the knight stood on the pitch at Old Trafford with his 13th Premier League trophy, basking in the crowd's acclaim for the last time. He took a microphone and issued his final command: "Your job now is to support your new manager!"
With hindsight, it was a curious thing to say. The "job" of fans, if they can be said to have a job, is surely to support the team rather than the manager. Such was the authority of Sir Alex, however, that it seemed normal at the time.
Normal, at least, compared to the news that football's most decorated manager would be succeeded by the trophyless David Moyes, which had provoked widespread astonishment in the world of football. The gist of that astonishment was simple: "Not Mourinho!?"
Jose Mourinho had won 16 major trophies since 2003, five more than Ferguson had won in the same period. As Chelsea manager from 2004 to 2007, he had won two titles and taken on average 2.35 points per game, the best rate in Premier League history. Along with Pep Guardiola, he was plainly the outstanding coach in world football. Unlike the Bayern-bound Guardiola, he was available. For United to have overlooked him in favor of a manager who had won nothing seemed perverse.
Since Alex Ferguson didn't make mistakes, the decision had to make some kind of sense, and a process of rationalization swiftly kicked in. Even Mourinho's biggest fans had to admit that he was … trouble. He had never stayed at any club for longer than three years. He was a specialist in strife and conflict who made enemies wherever he went, then took malicious delight in crushing those same enemies. He had been banned from technical areas all over Europe. He had once gouged a man's eye in a touchline scuffle. The only reason he was available is that his position at Real Madrid had become untenable after several senior players turned against him. And while nobody could dispute that he had been successful, his style of football was cold, cruel, and devious.
The rationalization continued: Ferguson, the old fox, understood what Manchester United needed better than anyone. United were already a machine for winning trophies. They didn't need a self-proclaimed genius to teach them what they already knew. They didn't want an unstable, preening narcissist to storm in, use them as a vehicle for his own glorification, and storm back out again, leaving behind God knows what kind of mess.
No. What was needed was a loyal custodian who could be trusted to keep the United machine ticking over. A man who respected the values that had brought so much success. A man who understood what it meant to serve something greater than himself. That man—how the scales have fallen from our eyes!—was David William Moyes.
* * *
At the beginning of July, the club released photographs of a beaming Moyes sitting in his new office at the club's training ground at Carrington. His desk was tidy, his Manchester United mouse pad ready for action.
It was from this building that Alex Ferguson had ruled English football, the spider at the center of a vast invisible web of connections and control. He exercised absolute power over the club he managed for nearly 27 years, but his influence stretched well beyond the limits of his own domain. Other British managers competed for his favor; they knew a word from him could make or break careers. Referees and journalists were terrified of him. He left most of the training to his coaches and spent his time gathering intelligence from far-flung corners of the empire, speaking to contacts on one of as many as nine mobile phones.
Ferguson believed he had left David Moyes with a winning hand. "It was important to me to leave an organisation in the strongest possible shape and I believe I have done so," his retirement statement read. "The quality of this league winning squad, and the balance of ages within it, bodes well for continued success at the highest level whilst the structure of the youth set-up will ensure that the long-term future of the club remains a bright one."
It's clear now that the squad and the youth setup was only the hardware of the United system. The software that made it work was all in Ferguson's head. How do you hand over the keys to a kingdom of the mind?
* * *
Moyes' first major initiative was to dismiss Ferguson's coaching staff and install the technical team he'd brought with him from Everton.
He had a reputation as a hands-on coach who pushed his players hard in training. According to Phil Neville, who played for Moyes at Everton, players sometimes ran so hard in preseason training that they vomited. "The Horse Shoe" was a Moyes preseason institution. Neville describes it as "a series of sharp runs that cover distances between 100 meters and 300 meters and there is barely any time to catch your breath in between. By the time you are on your eighth sprint, your legs feel like jelly and buckle, while your lungs are burning. The manager, meanwhile, simply laughs as you collapse."

it was good, but next time I will add another bay leaf and extra seasoning as we couldnt taste the flavors.
I made this the other night and it turned out really good. Everything was sone perfectly. We had this over rice. Thanks for posting!!
I made this exactly the way the recipe specified. I will make it again but will take the other reviewers advice and add beef broth to the stew. I will also add more vegetables.
Very nice flavor, when using 1 cup beef broth and 1 cup red wine. I marinated the beef for about 15 hours and then cooked it on high for 1 hour and on low for about 9. The flavor was good, but the veggies were not cooked through. I used whole baby carrots which I thought would be ok but apparently not. The potatoes were also hard. Next time I may sautee carrots & onions first and throw in a few mushrooms. Thanks for the great recipe!
I made the following changes: no bacon (I sauteed beef in 1 T canola oil instead), added another onion, use 1 cup wine, 3/4 cup beef broth and 1/4 cup cider vinegar. The results were fantastic.
Apart from substituting mushrooms for the potatoes I made this as per the recipe, with the two cups of wine. I cooked it for 10 hours in the crockpot and couldn't wait to taste it because the wonderful aroma was driving me crazy. It was definitely worth the wait - I can't tell you whether or not it tasted better the next day because there were no left-overs at all. Love this recipe - thank you so much heather.
I took the other reviewers advise and used 1 cup wine and 1 can beef broth. Let it marinate for about 12 hours. Came out very good, thanks for a tasty recipe.
I love cooking with wine. I enjoy the flavor that it gives to the simplest recipes. I did make one change because of the previous review. I added 1 cup of red wine and 1 can of beef broth. Anything done in the crockpot, is a recipe for me.
I must admit that I would have never tried this recipe again, until I ate the leftovers. I prepared the stew in the crockpot for 10 hours, and tried it that night for dinner. It had entirely too much of a wine taste for me...a taste that I didn't think fit with stew. But the leftovers are fantastic! The strong wine taste seemed to mellow the longer it sat in the refrigerator. I did not dilute the wine with water, so maybe next time I will try that if I must eat it the same day it is prepared. I added fresh mushrooms and threw in part of a frozen vegetable mix that included baby corn and peas.

"NAUVOO - MORMON UTOPIA ON THE MISSISSIPPI" Nauvoo by mtncorg
Nauvoo Travel Guide: 37 reviews and 51 photos
Here, along the banks of the Mississippi, followers of Joseph Smith were exhorted to 'gather' in the early to mid 1840's. Previous gatherings in Kirtland, Ohio - just east of Cleveland - and Far West, Missouri - north of Kansas City - had ended ignominiously, with Smith, himself, placed in a Missouri jail. As Smith spent time incarcerated, other adherents scouted the area that was to become Nauvoo. Local landholders offered Smith's followers good terms on land and the old townsite of Commerce, Illinois - which consisted of not much more than a couple of buildings - along the eastern banks of the Mississippi River. Following Smith's 'escaped' from the jail in Missouri - his incarceration had become a bit of an embarrassment to his jailors who left the door open - he moved his family to Nauvoo and gave out the call to bring his scattered followers together once again. Nauvoo was built up in a very short time - 1839-1844; by 1840 there were almost 3000 people with more than 10000 by 1844 and almost 20000 when the town was abandoned in 1846. At its peak, Nauvoo rivaled Chicago for the honor of being the largest town in Illinois. It was the largest city on the Mississippi north of St Louis.
As suddenly as it rose, the town collapsed. Joseph Smith never separated Church and State and he attracted enemies along with followers no matter where he went. Dissenters from within the upper ranks of the Mormon movement combined with outside forces leading to the murder of Smith - 27 June 1844 - in nearby Carthage. He had been awaiting trial for causing the destruction of a printing press of a Nauvoo dissenting newspaper. Local civil war loomed, but the Mormons, leaderless now, did not retaliate. Instead a leadership struggle ensued with Brigham Young assuming control. While major war did not break out, minor skirmishes did, and Young finally decided that the time and place was not right for Zion to occur in Nauvoo. He agreed with the governor of Illinois to leave Nauvoo the following year. Throughout 1846, Mormon wagons headed west and 20000 was reduced to less than 2000, leaving behind a ghost town - people leaving got very little if anything for the property left behind. The void was filled in coming years, to a certain extent by German immigrants and then later by the Icarians, followers of Etienne Cabet, a Frenchman who hoped to build a social utopia among Nauvoo's ruins
Nauvoo has continued a quiet existence since the departure of the Faithful to Utah in 1846. The oldest winery in Illinois - dating to 1857 - is here, originating from a former Icarian. The town was the center for grape growing until grape blights and the Prohibition of 1918 crushed the industry ... literally. Tourism in the latter part of the 20th Century has revived the small town. Both major divisions of the Mormon Church - the Utah-based LDS Church and Missouri-based Community of Christ (formerly Reorganized LDS) have restored many of the buildings of the Mormon heyday, attracting thousands of the Faithful and the curious to explore what was truly a unique time and place along the Mississippi

Excellent page! Though I have lived in both MO and IL, I never visited Nauvoo - it looks as if they've put a lot of work in restoration/renovation of their historic sites.
I always wondered what eventually became of Nauvoo -- thanks for a great presentation!
Absolutely fascinating. I've always wanted to visit Nauvoo, and now more than ever. The power of religion in people's lives is amazing. Very well done pages.
Though it's fair to suggest it's probably not a place I'll be going to, that in no way reflects the superb quality of your pages.
Interesting write up about Mormon history in Nauvoo. What does Illinois wine taste like? I haven't seen any Illinois vintages on the wine lists in California...
Yes - where are the mountains ? :-)) Great pictures, I wasn't aware of Illinois' history of mormons.
BUT! There are no mountains to climb in Illinois!! What were you doing there then!!?? Excellent page, very informative and systematic! I liked the Utah license plate pict...

The Forbidden Book – History of The English Bible
What you think about the Dead Sea Scrolls? Were all their contents been published as of now in truth or they were still hidden away by the Vatican scums? I suspect many were hidden away by them during the early secrecy.
BTW, I found a video that make some connections between Chinese character and biblical story. I was totally shocked and awe. This is so real as I knew Chinese language well. It is totally too much to call it just merely coincidence. It totally fit into the symbolic and literal mean of the Chinese character. Simply amazing! Now I look back into old chinese story it has similarity like:
Many atheists claim that Vatican hides some key documents of the Dead Sea Scrolls.
I really like to know, does the Vatican hide any Dead Sea Scrolls? If they do,
what kind of documents are those?

I did the Tour de Nash last weekend, and ended up doing 52 miles. I learned a little on how I should prep myself (nutritional wise). But I was wondering if you guys/gals have some tips to get my first metric century in this weekend. (I will also be doing the Tour de Cure next weekend, and a week off, then a duathlon the weekend after.) Looks like its going to be about 80 - 85 degrees out with about 75% humidity, so I know I will drain fast.
I carry powerbar's power gels and cliff shot blocks with me. I also use OS performance drinks, http://www.oscycling.com/.
Thanks for the help!

Magazine covers materialized into multifaceted masterpieces within the lens of John Rawling's camera. His innovative work for Conde-Nast spanned three decades and the creation of more than 200 "Vogue" and "Glamour" covers, as well as a myriad of ad campaigns. Rawlings (1912-1970) single-handedly elevated commercial photography to an art form, and expanded the selling power and scope of the fashion press by imparting color and the innovative use of natural and artificial light.

Effort underway to preserve 1930s gas stationMay 14,2014
The Associated Press
ST. ALBANS - The city of St. Albans, Vermont, is trying to find a way to upgrade and preserve what's believed to be the longest continually operating gas station in the state.
The Clarence Brown gas station was built in 1932. The St. Albans Messenger reports (http://bit.ly/1ssJBiX) some of the gas pumps are l in the public right of way. A plan would shift the entire site. But members of the city's Development Review Board say it would be difficult to grant a permit for it under current zoning rules.
The proposal awaits further input from the Design Advisory Board and the Planning Commission.
Jacqueline Brown, the daughter-in-law of the late Clarence Brown, has endorsed the effort to preserve the character of the site.MORE IN This Just InBARRE The Raiders built a 13-1 halftime lead before shifting into cruise control Thursday...

Just a small serving of Urbana's 24-Hour Salad.
As a sort of Julie & Julia-type project for Voracious, I'll be taking on the mighty recipes of the United Methodist Church of Urbana, Ohio. Every Tuesday, I'll whip up one of the Midwestern classics and chronicle the cooking process, while offering up the recipe for you to give it a try at home. Having been brought up on mostly Persian cooking, I'll be venturing into an entirely new genre of homemade cuisine.
Just a small serving of Urbana's 24-Hour Salad.
With the weather starting to warm up, at least for now, it seemed fitting to find a recipe that would complement the pleasant sunshine. So I decided to skip out on the casseroles and stews, and looked for something in the salad section. Midwesterners seem to be in love with their pork, and lots of it, since almost every salad had some form of it as the main ingredient.
I wasn't in the mood for a salad filled with meat, so I turned to the next best salad ingredient: fruit. Little did I know, this version of a fruit salad would leave me feeling heavier than many bacon-filled salads could.
-1/4 c. pineapple juice, drained from pineapple chunks
-1/4 c. lemon juice
-3/4 c. sugar
-2 eggs, beaten
Fruit: (Drained)
-1 can Royal Anne Cherries
-1 can chunk pineapple
-1 can mandarin oranges
-1 pkg. miniature marshmallows
Cook dressing ingredients until thickened. Cool and add to ½ pint whipping cream (whipped). Fold into fruit mixture in large bowl. Chill 24 hours. Stir and serve.
But the best part of the recipe is saved for last. It reads: NOTE: May be made low calorie and low cholesterol by substituting fruit packed in juices, egg beaters and Cool Whip.
How cool is that? Even in the '70s, some mommas out there were thinking about how to make even their sweetest treats a bit healthier. Out of excitement for this tiny addition, I decided to take the opportunity to mark off some calories by switching to Cool Whip (the whipping cream was probably the most caloric component of the ingredients). And to my surprise, Cool Whip now has a "Cool Whip Light" and a "Cool Whip Zero." As I was already cutting my losses, I decided to just stick with the "light" version and call it good.
After 24 hours of cooling in the fridge, the texture of the salad becomes like thick whipped cream, with fruit and marshmallows merely additions to the creamy base. It's more like a topping than an actual dessert--or whatever meal it's meant for. The flavor of the Maraschino cherries (which was what I used in replacement for Royal Anne Cherries) was most potent in the mixture, making the most bland fruit--the mandarin oranges--the only ingredient in the salad that I could continue to enjoy after three bites.
Now it's obvious that whoever created this clever recipe title meant it to represent the amount of time it takes to prepare the dish. However, after enjoying my creation, the name seemed to be easily put to multiple uses:

"Then I started walking down and people started getting it and then I beat the crap out of Cena. That was one of my highlights. I thought this is awesome... I messed with everybody."
If you could have a bout with anyone, who would it be?
"I would say The Rock. The reason I wanted to be a WWE Superstar was because of The Rock. I used to watch him in The Attitude Era. There was no-one more electrifying and no-one more must-see than The Rock. Seeing that I just always wanted to have a singles match with him.
"I had a tag match with him at a sold-out event at Madison Square Garden, which I was the main event in. I don't mean to brag about that but I sold out Madison Square Garden in two minutes. Note to self."
Cody Rhodes On The Rock and Brock Lesnar's recent returns: "Well, I mean, I walked into The Rock's dressing room at WrestleMania and thanked him for the number of people who were there that night and the number of people who ordered it on pay per view. I have such respect for The Rock. And now with the return of Brock it's completely different than The Rock. But for me, it kind of just made me angry and not in a way like, 'Oh, blast. They get to be on another pay per view.' More in a way that I'm out there working. I never take a day off. I never plan on taking a day off. I'm so in love with the wrestling business I couldn't see myself going away. And these guys have that ability to come back in because they have that presence, they have that following and are just automatically accepted as superstars again. So there's something to learn and something to be kind of irritated from that whole Attitude Era generation, but I get it from both the good and the bad."
WOW Cody is the rock'fans
Wow, seems like a really honest and genuine comment from Rhodes.
Who is Johnny Curtis? Nobody...just the future of WWE!

Trying to add a bit to my blog entry today and I'm having a hard time finding some of the NCAA records. Can anyone find the all-time home win streak records and where exactly our winning streak ranks back when we basically went 2+ seasons without a loss at home?
Go Cubs Go!
Ours was around 32 and its not close to the record I dont think.
#1 is Kentucky from 1943-1955 with 129 straight wins...
Only the top 12 are ranked, with #12 being western Kentucky with 67....
I've got the NCAA record book in front of me, let me know if you need anything else...
I removed it.
When I saw this title, I thought you meant an LP :).
The All Time consecutive home wins streak is 129 by Kentucky from 1943-1955...
I cannot find any lists of all programs... and the NCAA record book link is down right now...

Did you save this to your computer at some point?
Thanks for the info. Yeah, I figured it wasn't close to the all-time but I wasn't sure. knew it was 30 something though. New blog post will be up in a little while so be sure to check it later today!
Any record on consecutive missed 3pt shots? Just kidding.
I thought ours got into the low 40's before we lost...
EDIT: Looks like we got to 39.

Pretty sure ours is in the low-mid 30's. I remember we lost to Nebraska on ESPN to snap the streak. Hoiberg and the boys couldn't keep it going. We came out very flat and never recovered. I was so mad at the way we played. Home court streak and on national TV, to come out and play un-inspired hoops was terrible.
Are you a member?
I was a little high. We had a streak of 23 that Nebraska snapped on Big Monday, Jan 3, 1994. Lost 78-72. Game wasn't really that close.
ok. I'm really having an off day. Looks to me like the streak reached 39 from 1999-2001. Lost to powerhouse San Jose St. 64-62 on Dec 1, 2001. Here's the link.

Yeah, I remember that SJSU game. I think some people were just glad that Iowa wasn't the one to do it. It's interesting that Steve Barnes, LE's former assistant, was their coach.

I see the following requirements for the plugin support:
Plugins enable process and collaboration specific additional functions on top of the ESME kernel. They are implemented in Java, located on the server and are to be provided as jar-files to ease packaging and deployment handling.
(--> Not sure how packaging for Scala works)
- Plugins are listeners to events coming from the ESME kernel, such as MESSAGE_SENT, MESSAGE_RECEIVED, TAG_CREATED, USER_CREATED, USER_LOGGED_ON, USER_LOGGED_OFF. (more to be added)
- A plugin can be registered to multiple events.
- Plugins can not rely on assumptions in which order which plugin processes the incoming events. (this would require a prioritization handling for plugins)
- Plugins performs activity initiated on the ESME server, they communicate with endusers via messages.
- By default, plugins use the same database as ESME, they can link with database entries from the kernel tables, but do not modify or delete them.
- Plugins are to be placed for deployment in a specific directory in the ESME directory structure (to be defined).
- Plugins get registered and subscribed to the defined events during ESME startup,
- Deployment should be supported by the plugin through special methods (e.g. "initializePlugin", "removePlugin")
Settings of properties:
- Plugins can have general (=not user-specific) and user-specific settings.
- The plugin settings are collected in a specific database table in the ESME kernel during ESME runtime.
- Initial plugin settings are transported to ESME via specific files holding the property values.
- Plugin settings are set either through an admin/user profile interface or through the REST interface.
- All
- Comments
- Work Log
- History
- Activity
- Transitions
Moving to Server component.
We should probably be able to support java and scala-based plug-ins.
We have to decide whether plug-ins are just related to actions or other extension points as well.
On the last Structure/Architecture point, I don't think that plugins should be aware of the database in the sense of having direct access (read-only or otherwise). The persistence mechanism is already non-trivial (the Lucene index is maintained as well as the DB, the DB can be in any dialect, and is already abstracted by Lift so that not even the ESME kernel code is aware of the database layer).
Instead, we should focus on defining an ESME Kernel API that plugins would use, which would retain the freedom to change the implementation behind the API. A wiki is probably the best place to start working on this API - I'll post a question to esme-dev to see if we have a Wiki space that we can use for ESME.

S. Korean Firm Indicted in Trade-Secrets Case; Kevlar Body Armor Allegedly Copied
Byline: Jerry Seper, THE WASHINGTON TIMES
A federal grand jury has indicted a South Korean company and five of its executives on charges they conspired to steal from two other firms trade secrets about Kevlar, a high-strength fiber used in body armor for law enforcement and military personnel.
The indictment of Kolon Industries Inc. and its executives, handed up Thursday in U.S. District Court in Richmond, seeks forfeiture of at least $225 million in proceeds from the alleged theft of trade secrets from E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (DuPont) in Wilmington, Del., and Teijin Limited, one of the largest chemical companies in Japan.
U.S. Attorney Neil H. MacBride in Virginia said Kolon is accused of engaging in a massive industrial espionage campaign that allowed it to bring a new high-strength fiber, Heracron, to the market and compete directly with Kevlar.
This indictment should send a strong message to companies located in the United States and around the world that industrial espionage is not a business strategy, Mr. MacBride said.
Kolon recently introduced Heracron into the para-aramid-fiber market as a competitor to Kevlar and Twaron. The fibers are used to make body armor, fiber-optic cables and automotive and industrial products.
Seoul-based Kolon was charged with one count of conspiring to convert trade secrets, four counts of theft of trade secrets and one count of obstruction of justice.
The indictment said that from 2002 through 2009, Kolon sought to improve its Heracron product by hiring current and former employees at DuPont and Teijin as consultants, then asking them to reveal information that was confidential and proprietary. …

Gas prices may peakPublished 7:27pm Monday, April 2, 2012
Average retail gasoline prices in Michigan have risen 7.6 cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $4.02 per gallon Sunday. This compares with the national average that increased 3.2 cents per gallon in the past week to $3.89 per gallon, according to gasoline price website MichiganGasPrices.com.
Including the change in gas prices in Michigan during the past week, prices April 1 were 36.8 cents per gallon higher than the same day one year ago and nine cents per gallon higher than a month ago.
The national average has increased 18.6 cents per gallon during the past month and stands 26.8 cents per gallon higher than this day one year ago.
"The national average has finally showed some signs of slowing down, and gasoline prices in dozens of areas have virtually stabilized after rising for two to three consecutive weeks," said Patrick DeHaan, a senior petroleum analyst with GasBuddy.com. "The rally in gasoline prices started in March — we could have dubbed it March Madness, to coincide with the flurry of college basketball games — but as the tournament winds down, gasoline prices too have slowed their increase, and maybe — just maybe — gasoline prices are closer to a peak than we initially expected," DeHaan said, noting GasBuddy last week revised its gasoline price forecast slightly higher.

Equity Vesting and Managerial Myopia

ECGI - Finance Working Paper No. 379/2013
This paper links the CEO's concerns for the current stock price to reductions in real investment. These concerns depend on the amount of equity he intends to sell in the short-term, but actual equity sales are an endogenous decision. We use the amount of stock and options scheduled to vest in a given year as an instrument for equity sales. Such vesting is determined by equity grants made several years prior, and thus is unlikely to be driven by current investment opportunities; it also significantly predicts actual sales. An interquartile increase in instrumented equity sales is associated with a 0.14% decline in the growth of R&D/assets, 2.6% of the average R&D/assets ratio. Vesting-induced equity sales are also associated with a higher likelihood of meeting or marginally beating analyst earnings forecasts and higher earnings announcement returns. More broadly, by introducing a measure of incentives that is not driven by the current contracting environment – vesting-induced equity sales – our paper suggests that CEO contracts affect real outcomes.

Don't put things off until tomorrowPublished 8:57am Monday, October 28, 2013
I often procrastinate on the personal projects I want to accomplish – most times to the point of absurdity. There are goals on some of my lists that literally date back for years.
While it's bad to keep "to do" items on a list for years, there is an even worse outcome that sometimes happens to me.
For example, if someone wanted to build a tree house for the children there is definitely an expiration date on those kinds of things.
Something came to my attention this week which I hadn't procrastinated about and turned out to be a good thing.
Those of you who read this column know I'm interested in all kinds of historical minutia. I like to read old newspaper articles and other printed materials, but photographs are my favorite by a slight edge.
A while back I began taking photographs of various places around Wetumpka and some of the surrounding communities in my spare time. It was something I started doing when it struck me how grateful I was to people in the past who bothered to record local images. As part of my self-appointed duty I also share those photos with folks who are interested.
One of the sites I decided to shoot was an old-fashioned whistle mounted on spindly legs perched on the red clay hill at the intersection of U.S. Highway 231 and Boundary Street.
I've been told it blew at specific times to signal the mill employees (Dan River Mills) when it was time to report to work, take a lunch break, etc.
I finally got around to photographing the whistle a more than a year ago. I happened to be traveling that direction one Saturday and remembered to stop.
Now I'm glad I did. The whistle is no longer there.
Some utility work has been ongoing in that area for several weeks – trees being cleared out, etc. But the whistle was still there.
I wanted to stop again and get more photos this time without the pine trees in the background.
Alas, I waited too long to get a second set of pictures. I had no idea the whistle tower was going to be removed, but it's gone this week.
At least I have the photos I took last September. It should be a lesson to me to stop procrastinating on my personal projects so much – maybe I'll do a little better.
Until next week … and bless your hearts.

5 thoughts on "Andruw Jones, regular DH?"
Plus, he has the best smile in baseball. Ibanez can't top that.
Como se dice, hope springs eternal!
Call me crazy, but I actually have higher hopes for Branyan in the RH DH spot than I do Ibanez. If the Yankees were to cut Raul and another team picks him up, would we only be on the hook for .6 million (Raul's salary minus the league minimum that another team would be paying him)?
Can anyone figure out how Jones hit righties after him mom fixed his stance? I think that was around mid-August.
You could do it by manually logging his at bats, but the sample size wouldn't be big enough to mean anything.

I bought this dishwasher about 3 years ago, worked great for about a year and then it started throwing fits. At least once a week I would start it and all of the sudden the "CANCEL" light would come on and it would start draining. Then I would restart it and it would work fine. That worked for about a year, then it started to do it more often, and now I have to restart it 5-6 times. So eff it, I'm getting rid of this piece of junk!!
It is a classical dishwasher. Nothing fancy but works. Arranged everything online. No hassle no problem.
easy to install. 1-hr wash does the job every time!
This is our second Whirlpool dishwasher in just 3 years. The first one was bought just for the price (was the cheapest we could find in the color that we wanted)......lesson learned. The control board failed just shy of its third birthday and it would have cost almost as much to fix it as it would have to just buy a new one. So we opted to buy a new one, do more research, and buy the five year warranty this time. So far, this machine is doing it's job. It looks good, gets the dishes clean, and didn't completely break the bank. It is a little noisy, but we we were unable to use the insulation because the space was too tight. Also, please know this particular color is not stainless steel. It is more of a grey/silver. I was disappointed at first, but am actually more satisfied because the fingerprints are basically non-existent! We love that! The other machine was the shiny stainless it it showed everything, this one does not. I would recommend this dishwasher and found it to be a pretty good buy.
The upper sprayer cleans and rinses the upper rack better than my old dishwasher which had a telescopic spray post. This make it so you can put larger pans in the middle of the lower & upper rack. It's a lot quiter than I expected, and does a very good job of cleaning dishes. I don't even rinse, just scrape & load, and almost every time everything is clean. I like the rinse agent guage that lets me know if it needs refilled. The clean light is the best idea ever (for those of you who have used dishes out of a dishwasher and later found they weren't clean!). The only thing I didn't really like was the soap latch. It has a small catch latch for the soap lid, which can be troublesome if you use powder dishsoap and spill it around the latch. Also, the operating manual could have been a little more informative.
I shopped around to find a dishwasher that would match the color of my refrigerator and oven. Sears offers the best deal. The dishwasher was easy to install and works great.
We bought this 9 months ago. It has never cleaned the dishes. We had a great Whirlpool for 12 years prior to buying this one. We only replaced it because the racks were so bad--and as expensive as getting a new dishwasher. This one is the opposite when it comes to cleaning dishes. The kids and I wash by hand now and just use it as a drainer---needless to say, they hate the new dishwasher.
Terrific product and easy to install
So far so good! I have only had the diswasher a couple weeks but it does a great job! Some say there is water still on top of cups. But dont they all do that!!! It is quieter than my last diswasher. But I have never been around one that didnt make a little noise. The noise I hear is just water splashing! It cleans my dishes just fine. No complaints!

Why don't you say hello to our friends, Pooh?
"Hello to our friends," said Pooh.
"Thank you Pooh," I said.
So this is Pooh. Also known in the 100 Acre Woods (where he's from–Pooh, that is) as Winnie-ther-Pooh–or at least that's what Christopher Robin calls him. And Christopher Robin is usually not wrong about these sorts of things, except on every other Thursday, and sometimes when it's his unbirthday.
"What sorts of things are we talking about?" a growly bear voice said.
"About you liking honey, for instance," I said.
"Oh," Pooh replied. "I thought we were. I just wanted to make sure."
"That's a very good thing to do," I said.
"And well–if you don't mind my asking–what other sorts of things do I like?"
"What about these caramel apple pie bars?" I asked, pointing at the picture you just saw. "What do you think of them?"
Well, if you'd like to find out, I don't blame you. To find out what happens to Pooh and the great caramel apple pie bar recipe, visit my blog (and Pooh, too--he loves visitors, and I'm sure he'd love to have you) and check out the recipe, stories, and photos.
