Apple looking to 'radically improve' iPhone Maps & location servicesNew job listings from Apple suggest the company is still hard at work at a new, advanced version of its iOS Maps application along with improvements to location services for the iPhone and iPad.
This week Apple advertised two new hirings on its official site (1, 2) for the position of "iOS Maps Application Developer." The positions discovered by AppleInsider are based in Apple's corporate campus in Cupertino, Calif.
"Come work for the team that revolutionized the mobile technology industry as it continues [to] define what computing looks like in a post-PC era," the listing reads. "The Maps team is looking for an exceptional developer to join us in our mission to radically improve how people interact with maps and location-based services."
As is par for the course in Apple's cryptic job listings, it offers no specific details on what an updated version of Maps or new location services might offer. But the company does seek a candidate for the role that has experience in developing "sophisticated user interfaces."
The advertisement also reveals that the position will require an employee to collaborate closely with Apple's human interface team. Together, they will craft "new and innovative features" for iOS devices.
For years now, there has been mounting evidence that Apple is cooking up a major revamp of the iPhone's native Maps application, perhaps in concert with new and enhanced location-based features. In 2009, the company purchased Placebase, a competitor to Google Maps, which led to speculation that Apple could be interested in eschewing Google's mapping content for its own.
In addition, last July Apple acquired Poly9, an online mapping company from Quebec. Poly9 created interactive 3D mapping software for use in a browser.
Also last year, it was revealed that Apple had begun using its own location databases for devices powered by iOS, like the iPhone and iPad. In version of iOS prior to 3.2, Apple relied on databases maintained by Google and Skyhook Wireless.
While Apple now provides location-based services from its own databases, the iPhone maker still relies on Google for maps and "Street View" content in the native iOS Maps application.

Have had my Island about three weeks now. Sounds great with Senn HD 600s and HD25 Aluminum. Not good for AKG 702s
Thanks. Not very familiar with the 702s, but from what I've read they seem less forgiving.

Showing some love for this little DAC/amp combo.
I just got a silver Island to replace an aging E-MU 0202 USB (which has a CS4392 DAC that I like the sound of) and I am quite happy with it. After looking at a range of portable DAC/amps ranging from the O2+ODAC, Geek Out 450, Hifi-M8, and many more, I decided to go with the Island for a few reasons.
- Small, portable size (I travel a lot)
- Powered by USB port (this eliminated the O2+ODAC and HP-P1)
- Volume pot (more of a preference but eliminated all the cheap USB thumbdrive-size DAC/amps like Dragonfly, Explorer, etc.)
- Gain switch so I can switch between headphones and IEMs (eliminated Geek Out)
- Enough power to drive even the most demanding headphones for future upgrades (haven't tried yet but have read it pairs well with the Audeze LCD-X/C)
- A flagship DAC chip (CS4398 in this case)
- Bit-perfect output with no noise (using Audirvana + integer mode 1)
- Good sound quality (output is very clean and powerful, I only have to turn volume to 10-15% on low gain for my IEMs)
- Affordable price (my budget was $1000 but I didn't feel the need for all the extra bells and whistles of the Hifi-M8)
- Good build quality (solid machined aluminum body with good weight)
- Balanced headphone output (for more power to drive demanding cans)
- Up to 24 bit/192 kHz support (nice upgrade from my 0202's 24/96)
- Silver matches MacBooks' aluminum casing
- Not a big issue but the DAC/amp gets pretty warm (not burning hot) since the aluminum body acts as a heatsink
- Gain switch sticks out a bit and could be damaged, not sure why the designer didn't make it flush or used a more sturdy switch
- Lack of other inputs (only USB)
- 1/8" (3.5mm) single-ended headphone out (in case you prefer a 1/4")
- Lack of cheap options available for the RSA/ALO balanced headphone output (I don't believe in paying $$$ for cables, may have to DIY)
- No DSD support (this wasn't an issue for me as I don't have or plan to get any DSD music)
- Could probably use a bit more power for higher impedance headphones (only 330mW balanced output @ 600ohms)
- No battery for use with DAPs (see the Hifi-M8 instead)
For the price I paid ($300 CAD), what I got was a surprisingly solid piece of gear. Despite its size and appearance, it does feel/look quite nice and sounds equally great. I don't have a lot of DAC/amps to compare to though it is very similar to my E-MU 0202 USB but with fuller, punchier bass and a wider soundstage, both of which I welcome. All in all, it's a DAC that outputs a clean signal and an amp that can pump out the power when needed. What more can you ask for?
I'll be happy to answer any questions.

hi, this is my first post! A few months ago I acquired a black ALO the Island and a lightly used set of Grado sr325si (in immaculate shape, from a local reputable dealer) - once the equipment broke it
I was no longer equalizing - (at first the sound was too bright/aggressive in the upper mid/treble but this settled down and I listen w/out eq now. I must say
I am totally satisfied - I was at the local TAVES show and heard the 325e's as well as the fancier Grado's - my fave of the bunch was the PS500e - but the
my 325's are superb. What I heard was a more neutral mid bass and balance from the 500e's - and a more spread out sound stage while the 325's more in the head
by comparison. Mids just as good.
Right now I'm grooving to Amorphous Androgynous The Cartel Volume II as well as Boards of Canada - Music Has the Rights to Children - both absolutely
100% through this combo! Also, Bill Bruford's Random Acts of Happiness is an album I totally enjoy. Everything sounds coherent, solid bass and sound stage..
refined and smooth yet detailed...perfect to my ears!
Back to the Island - this little device, properly matched is a true giant killer - nothing I heard at the show makes me want to upgrade my gear!
I do use Pure Music on my Mac, set to Upsampling. Together with the Grados and the right recordings - killer combo!
looking forward to hearing from hearing from some other members!

Holy moly! I just fired up The Island with my Ultrasone Pro 900's and... wow! Bass is far more controlled and harder hitting than anything my Meridian Explorer ever produced. Also, the overall warmth of the dac has toned the highs down a bit and is a pleasure to listen to. Currently, I'm rocking out to Beck's Go It Alone track off of Guero. Lossless. Audirvana Plus. Bass lines are dreamy. What's the word ALO used... chewy. :)
I'm using The Island with my Pro 900's (40 ohm and sensitivity of 96db) on medium gain with plenty of headroom to spare. I'm blown away that The Island hasn't received more love.

The overall measurements are accurate for the entire exterior, but in case you're wondering, the interior dimensions of the individual drawers, counts in my book, so I'll share it.
The INTERIOR of the drawers are plenty deep, with about 13 and 1/2 inch length from front to back. I say about, because it's plastic, so if you jam pack it, it slightly expands from the rear, making it 14 inches or so.
Width, from left to right is 19 and a 1/2 inches.
The height of each drawer is barely 7 inches. So if you plan to stack a couple of folded T-Shirts, you can fit two stacks side by side, but only pile about 5 high.
Now, I rated it 5 Stars, and that's not something I do lightly, because I am a picky consumer. It's plastic, and depending on what you're gonna use it for, obviously will determine it's life span. I saw photos, here on Amazon, of it arriving cracked. Thankfully that didn't happen for me. Everyone knows these are not fancy wooden drawers, or heavy duty "Metro Shelf" type frames, but for the price... THEY'RE PERFECT. You get what you pay for, and I am completely satisfied with the efficiency of seeing through the drawers, to know what's inside of each, and the elegance of the design! My closet looks great, now, and it's no longer a 7 hour long ordeal to find something. It's EXACTLY what I was looking for.
I did not know for sure, but after buying 2, I found you can easily stack them into one good sized unit. You have to remove the top plastic layer of one unit and the second one will snap snugly on top to create one seamless unit.
The wheels are optional, and I am not sure how stable these would be stacked and on wheels. But on flat carpet, it's stable and sturdy when stacked (if you remove the top of one, and stack (by snapping into place) the other on-top)
I bought two sets of these drawers and found that if you pull the lid off of one set, the other set will stack perfectly into the four corner posts of the set you took the lid off of, creating one set of six drawers.
I attached pictures of them stacked in the closet. I didn't bother attaching the wheels as I don't need them for this use.
The bottom line for me is these are decent quality and made the closet WAY more useful as I can put baby clothes in half of the drawers and supplies like diapers and wipes in the other ones.
Just remember if you stack them to put the heavier things in the bottom drawers to keep it stable and help reduce the chance of it tipping.
I'm very happy with this purchase.
Approximate size of each, individual drawer:
~ 7" high/deep
~ 20" wide
~ 13 1/2" - 14" long
The overall dimensions are:
15 1/4" length x 21 3/4" width x 24" height (without the wheels/casters...see the comments for more information on the height)
*I purchased this with super saver shipping for approx. 15.50. If you notice the price is higher than this, add it to your cart & wait. The price usually comes down.
Another update...using under improvised baby changing table:
I thought I'd add this information to the review because it worked so nicely. A few months ago, I improvised a changing table for my grandson. I was visiting them for a month, helping them care for their newborn. They didn't want to purchase a changing table so I came up with this idea: I got their card table, we purchased one of these storage units, slid it under the table, put their diaper pail on the floor near the table, filled the drawers with clothes, bibs, socks, extra wipes, etc. We put some diapers & wipes on top of the table, a couple toys to keep him occupied during changes if necessary, etc. & it was ready to go. Much nicer than a purchased changing table.Read more ›

We launched at Hite at 7:30 am. Not as early as I wanted but just couldn't get the crew out of bed at 4:30. Launching was ok, had to back the boat and truck over rocks and then out into the lake until the entire truck was in. The graph showed 1 foot of water under the boat at launch. Moving out we had around 7' for 100 yards then 12' then finally 25' about 1/2 mile down lake and stayed that way until we rounded the corner and could see Tractyte after that no problem.
Water was still heavily stained until you got down around 2&4 mile. The back of Farley's and White's was fairly clear. Most debris was hung up on shore. We mainly went to catch stripers and try for some walleye. 4 mile canyon had slurps going on and off most of the time, yearlings mostly. In 2 mile we got into some actual boils and they were bigger 3-4 lb fish but skinny.
We went to the back of 2 mile and there were shad fry everywhere. 3 different sizes from 1/4" up to 2" (I assume the 1/4" were shad but of course not sure).The slurps we're a little shy, we would motor in with the trolling motor and catch 1-2 in each. The bigger fish that were actually boiling were easy to get into and would actually stay around the boat for a while and you could catch 8-9 at a time. Even after the boils would go down we could cast a shad rap and pick up numerous fish.
Caught a few smallmouth fishing for stripers, we played with the stripers so much we didn't even try for walleye. In White Canyon we thought we were fishing a slurp and ended up catching 7-8 Gizzard shad that would actually bite the lure?? Big, 1 1/2-2 lbs.
Spent some time in the shade eating lunch and examined the receding water line for quagga's and didn't see any. Overall a good trip, I wouldn't launch there again this year, another foot or two and it would be pretty sketchy for me. And it was hot, very hot, 107 when we pulled off the lake around 4:30.

Dandelion is a black other nethie, and he is the artist. Clover, another black otter nethie, is a poet. Buttercup, their daddy, is my business manager. Yes, I am slightly bonkers, but each of these bunnies has their role in my business according to their character, and it helps me with my creativity and also the business side of things to work with them like this.
I also have Lady Jane Willoughby, who is a house rabbit and a diva. She has inspired The Ballet BunBuns.

CPAC Cosponsor: Nelson Mandela a "Bloodthirsty Terrorist"Breaking News
Last February, activists pitched a fit when it was announced that, for the second consecutive year, the gay Republican group GOProud would be a cosponsor of Washington's biggest right-wing confab, the Conservative Political Action Conference....
CPAC isn't so discerning about the rest of its cosponsors, though. As Right Wing Watch notes, one of the sponsors at February's conference will be Youth For Western Civilization, a group dedicated to, as the name suggests, preventing the "extinction" of Western Civilization at the hands of multiculturalism. Per its mission statement, the group boasts that, "in spite of the continual assault and hatred it endures from the radical left, we wish to revive the West, rather than see our civilization be sent to the graveyard of history."
How does that manifest itself? Among other things, the group is a passionate defender of South Africa's white heritage. A recent blog post featured at the site accuses the African National Congress, the nation's ruling party, of waging a "genocide" against Afrikaners, and pins much of the blame on revered former president Nelson Mandela....

Very convenient location, few minutes walk from SMN railway station. Comfortable - though rather small - rooms. Friendly staff (thank you, Verena). Last but not least - great atmosphere of a small Tuscanian hotel. Almost forgotten: the very first hotel I ever visited with PS2 console installed, not that I was using it when being in Florence.
I really like the interior, with a nice internal courtyard. Breakfast was decent, but it might be more diversified.
All in all, comes highly recommended.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Adjacent to the cloisters of Santa Maria Novella in the historical center of Florence, the three antique buildings surrounding the covered courtyard, now our breakfast room, offer you a welcoming corner in typical Florentine style.

Claiborne Farm manager Gus Koch said Unbridled, who underwent two surgeries within a week, had a "rocky" weekend but is a good patient who is battling hard to recover from his operations and subsequent complications."It's a bumpy road," Koch said Monday afternoon. "He had a rough Saturday (Sept. 29), a good Sunday (Sept. 30), but a rough Monday (Oct. 1). We're still dealing with peritonitis, trying to clean that up. This morning he was having some trouble with pain. He was uncomfortable. They refluxed some fluid off of his stomach."Koch said the stallion is walked and grazed and is a very alert, but "until he gets to the point he can travel and come home," he will remain at the Hagyard-Davidson-McGee veterinary clinic.Unbridled had a major setback in his recovery from surgery last Wednesday and was operated on again last Thursday. He had a tumor-like mass removed at Hagyard-Davidson-McGee veterinary clinic on Sept. 21. Over three feet of his colon was removed and his bowel was resected. A pathology report showed the tumor was not cancerous.On Sept. 26, Unbridled began running intermittent fever and fluid was draining into his abdomen. The following day, the fever subsided, but the fluid continued to drain."The decision was made to open him up again and that was done at 5:30 Thursday (Sept. 27) night," Koch said. In an 80-minute procedure, Dr. Bob Hunt found what he described to Koch as " 'a pencil eraser-sized hole where the site of the original surgery was...where it was resected.' "Hunt performed the first surgery along with Dr. Paul Thorpe."It's pretty touch-and-go," Koch said. "We've got three main things to watch for: one, this has to hold this time; two, there is the problem of laminitis because of the toxins in his system; and three, to watch for adhesions on the colon."Unbridled was taken to the same clinic on Sept. 3, 2000 after experiencing signs of colic. The veterinarians found a thickening of the large colon wall and there was significant blockage of bile from the bile duct. He returned to Claiborne and had a normal breeding season.He experienced some colic-like symptoms this summer and then was examined at Claiborne by Drs. Kim Sprayberry and Doug Byars.The 1990 Kentucky Derby (gr. I) and Breeders' Cup Classic (gr. I) winner is the sire of 23 stakes winners. He began his stud career at Gainesway Farm and moved to the Hancock family's Claiborne Farm near Paris, Ky., for the 1997 breeding season. He was syndicated by Claiborne president Seth Hancock into 40 shares worth $475,000 each, a value of $19 million. His stud fee this year was $200,000.

Agra: While accepting that the derogatory remarks made by the UP leader, Dayashankar, against Mayawati were wrong, former union minister and BJP's Dalit leader and MP, Ram Shankar Katheria, on Friday criticized the Rs 50 lakhs reward announced for "Dayashankar's tongue" by some BSP workers. "The BJP accepts that what Dayashankar did was wrong. But what is being done now by them is also incorrect", he said adding that two wrongs could never make a right. He said that the comments passed by BSP workers against Dayashankar's mother, wife and daughter during their recent protest were also wrong and Mayawati should take action against them. Maintaining that the BJP had done the right thing by sacking Dayashankar, Katheria said a FIR has been registered against him and the law would take its own course. He claimed that this incident would not erode BJP's dalit support base. "We are pro dalits and have always worked for their betterment", he said adding that during Mayawati's five years rule maximum number of cases were registered against the dalits. "As far as Mayawati is concerned, the BJP supported her when she became the CM", he said while hinting that the BSP was trying to politicize and gain mileage from the "unfortunate" utterances of Dayashankar. In a veiled attack on the Congress nominee for the UP chief ministerial post, Sheila Dixit, the BJP leader said, "She's like my grandmother, as she was an MP from Kannauj, from where I too belong". In the same breath Katheria dubbed Congress a "bhuddi" (aged) party and said, "nothing is left in it now and its demise is near". Meanwhile some local Muslim organisations including Islamia Local Agency, have come out in support of Mayawati and demanded immediate arrest of Dayashankar. A meeting was organised at Shahi Jama Masjid where leaders from the community condemned Dayashankar's remarks. The RMAC also submitted a memorandum to the administration demanding Dayashankar's arrest.

Microsoft `cooler` now, but Apple remains `coolest`: Poll
Sydney: A majority of people think that software giant Microsoft is `cooler` now than it was a year or two ago, a new survey has shown.
According to the Reuters/Ipsos poll, the firm managed to pip Facebook in the survey, as only 42 per cent of young adults thought the world`s largest social network is cooler now than in the past.
Twitter scored 47 per cent, below Microsoft `s 50 per cent in the survey that covered 853 respondents between the age of 18 and 29, the Sydney Morning Herald reports.
Apple, despite falling out of favour with many Wall Street investors, still scored well in the poll, which measured brand perception and usage over time for major consumer tech brands.
About 60 per cent of 18- to 29-year-old respondents still thought Apple was cooler now than in the past.
But Google`s Android brand did even better, with a full 70 per cent giving it the thumbs up, according to the survey.

I bought 13 of these because I wanted all my clubs to have matching grips and they came in 3 separate shipments of 3, 6, and 4 and some were ever so slightly a different shade of blue. As I don't care how they look bundled up I didn't make a big deal out of it. I will only be using one club at a time and they are in the bag most of the time.
Careful buying something like this from Amazon as they may come from multiple vendors.

Frankfurt (ots) - Worldhotels is announcing another addition to its growing portfolio of branded hotels: the Worldhotel Bel Air The Hague. The hotel is the second in the Netherlands to carry the Worldhotels name.
The Worldhotel Bel Air The Hague has been with Worldhotels since 2009 and is located in the heart of the Statenkwartier area, opposite the Catshuis, the official residence of the prime minister, and within walking distance from the Gemeente Museum and the World Forum Convention Centre. The west-facing rooms and suites offer a sea view while those facing east look out to the skyline of The Hague. The hotel offers state-of-the-art meeting and conference facilities for eight to 500 people, 300 hotel rooms, two of which are Junior Suites, eight apartments and 20 Executive Business Suites. Guests can dine at Restaurant Purple or Brasserie Butterfly or have a drink at the Embassy Jazz Bar or the Bar Lounge. There is also a fitness room, private parking and a conference and event room adjacent to the private garden. The Hague's shopping streets are only a stone's throw away, and the hotel is within quick and easy reach of city and beach.
"The Worldhotel Bel Air The Hague makes a great addition to our portfolio of branded hotels", says Robert Hornman, Managing Director of Worldhotels. "We are proud that a hotel with such a prime location, excellent meeting facilities and world class service carries our name."
"We are confident in joining the Worldhotel brand to further enhance our partnership and still keep our unique and independent identity", says Stephan van der Meulen, General Manager. "We will be able to internationally benefit from such a creative and innovative brand", he adds.
The new branding solution of Worldhotels was introduced in 2010 and is an ideal alternative to standard franchise contracts. The fee structure for this model is extremely competitive as it is based purely on brand performance in total room revenue delivery.

Coldplay frontman Chris Martin has apparently started dating actor Jennifer Lawrence and "sources" have told tabloids why.
"Jennifer is loads of fun and they can't stop laughing when they are together," a source told The Sun newspaper.
"Chris feels he is dating someone who has everything he's been missing out on in the past 11 years."
E News says "multiple sources" confirmed Lawrence and Martin are dating, having both become single this year.
The source told The Sun she's given the Coldplay singer a "new lease of life".
"Jennifer doesn't take herself too seriously and when she is not filming she just wants to hang out and have a good time."
A different source told New York's Page Six the pair have been spending plenty of time together.
Gwyneth Paltrow has reportedly found romance with 'Glee' co-creator Brad Falchuk. Photo: Getty
"Jennifer was in New York last week, staying at the Mandarin Oriental, and that's when things really heated up with Chris. They spent a lot of time together," the source said.
The Mirror said Martin fell for the "pizza-eating smoker, who is nothing like clean-living Gwyneth", in June when she attended an after-party for a Coldplay gig.
The Mirror reported the pair have been texting each other for six weeks and Martin bought Lawrence presents for her birthday on Friday.
While text messaging and birthday present-buying aren't necessarily suggestive of a relationship (if The Mirror's 'source' is correct), rumours about Lawrence's last relationship are a bit stronger.
It's reported the 24-year-old actor separated from on-again, off-again boyfriend of two years Nicholas Hoult in June, with Page Six's source speculating Martin "could be the reason why".
However a different source told E News it was an amicable separation, due to work commitments rather than other romances.
"They spent a lot of time apart because of work, and it was difficult on their relationship," the source said.
Meanwhile Martin's relationship status has been no secret: the Coldplay singer and Paltrow announced their "conscious uncoupling" via Paltrow's blog Goop in March, and the former couple remain amicable.
Paltrow has reportedly found romance with Glee co-creator Brad Falchuk, who she met on the show.
Falchuk's 10-year marriage ended in March and he has since been seen with Paltrow.
The news hurt Martin's feelings, a Mirror source said.
"Chris is a sensitive guy and it hurts him to see her moving on so quickly. They've not waged a war on each other but certainly Chris wishes she had kept things quiet."
But if the Lawrence-Martin rumours are true he appears to be moving on just as fast.
And don't feel too sorry for Lawrence's ex-boyfriend because he's rumoured to be dating Twilight star Kristen Stewart.
The pair were seen eating sushi together and are both working on sci-fi movie Equals. So gossip rags have immediately deduced that they are dating.
To add more fuel to the relationship flames, they talked about the potential for chemistry during a Tokyo media conference about their coming film.
"It's always a weird position to be put in any film where the director chooses two people and is saying, 'Hey, potentially in this world I'm creating you two could fall in love,' " Hoult said, according to People magazine.
"Sometimes [it] feels forced and tricky and awkward, but the kind of environment [director Drake Doremus] created was straightforward and easy," Hoult continued.
"Kristen is a great actress, and that just makes it very relaxed and my job very easy."
Stewart went even further, saying she isn't afraid of "feels".
"My life revolves around it, actually. Finding the balance between the head and the heart is important - but I've always been very driven by the gut," said Stewart.

Why the Global Economy Is Still Stuck
The global economic news is not good lately. The Italian election was a statement against the austerity policy of the previous government, but failed to offer an alternative. The resulting uncertainty keeps Italy's government bond market on thin ice, threatening to engulf the whole euro zone in a new financial storm.
The U.S. government has been embroiled in a fight over something called "sequester" for weeks without a solution. The resulting US$ 85 billion cuts in government spending rekindle the risk of double-dip recession. The cuts are 0.5 percent of GDP and less than one-tenth of the United States' fiscal deficit. The big worries over them reflect the fragile state of the American economy after massive stimulus over five years and a dysfunctional U.S. political system.

Len Kasper Chat Wrap
There isn't a whole lot going down today. The last-ever Hall of Fame game was to feature the Cubs versus the Padres this afternoon...and was poetically rained out. That'll save the Cubs from a freak injury at least.
To hold us over until the big Cubs vs Rays series tomorrow (imagine that, an IMPORTANT Cubs vs Rays series), reader Carlos sent me a link to a Len Kasper chat wrap on Baseball Prospectus from last week. He touches on his love of sabermetrics along with a bit of inside info on the personalities on the team. It's certainly worth a read.
I also would like to mention that the Cubs reached 20 games over .500 with the win yesterday. This is the soonest they've reached that mark since...1906, which is still the record for highest team winnng percentage in a season. Lou's 2001 Mariners did tie the 116 win mark, but had ten more games to do it (162 versus 152).
Some minor league info and run differential update after the jump...
Iowa(AAA): The Iowa Cubs had to cancel a few games last week due to flooding around Principal Park. They made some of that up with a double-header on Sunday. They've also added Ben Broussard (recently cut by Texas) and P Greg Reinhard (acquired in the Jae-kuk Ryu deal last year).
Tennessee(AA): The Smokies ended their first half on Sunday with a win that ended an 8-game losing streak and finished the first-half of the season at 27-43.
Daytona(Hi-A): The Florida State League All-Star Game was played this weekend at Space Coast Stadium (not a typo) and all five Daytona Cubs saw action: P Casey Lambert, P Alex Maestri, OF Jim Adduci, 2B Tony Thomas, C Welington Castillo (was replaced by Mark Reed because he was promoted to AA),
Finished the first half of the season at 30-38 (7th place) with manager Ryne Sandberg being ejected four times. Pitcher Blake Parker and 3B/1B/DH Jovan Rosa will play in tomorrow's All-Star game.
And the Boise Hawks announced their roster last week and will begin play tomorrow.
Run Differential Leaders:
Cubs +108
Phillies +90
Red Sox +70
White Sox +60
Athletics +55
Braves +39
Re: Len Kasper Chat Wrap
Kasper had mentioned yesterday something involving one of the Cub's minor league teams that was unprecedented -apparently, the game was played without any spectators present, only players on the field. The town in which the game was played had issued security orders (due to flooding) that prevented any citizens from attending.
Re: Len Kasper Chat Wrap
Yeah... sadly that was Des Moines. All of Iowa is getting messed up by the floods, and you can guess (by my handle) that I am a bit bummed about it.
Here is to hoping that it dries out quickly...
Re: Len Kasper Chat Wrap
Rob G-- unless I misread you check out June 1977
June 28- 25 games over .500
Re: 20 games over .500
Rob G. --
Actually, the infamous 1969 Cubs reached the 20 games over .500 on June 6th after only 52 games:
"1969: On June 6th, the Cubs completed a six-game winning streak at home, trouncing the Reds 14-8, and reaching the 36-16 mark, a .692 record."
Check out this article at the Baseball Think Factory about the history of the post-WWII Cubs reaching the 20 games over .500 mark: http://www.baseballthinkfactory.org/files/gonfalon...

Re: Len Kasper Chat Wrap
The flooding in Iowa has been just insane.
I live in a town that lies high above the nearby river and my basement is just starting to dry out after a month. I'm just glad I don't live in any of the cities really affected by the floods (Des Moines, Iowa City, Mason City, Cedar Rapids). It's going to take a long time to clean up those cities and get back to normal.
Re: Len Kasper Chat Wrap
I remember traveling to those areas on business during the '93 floods, so sorry to see another repeat of those terrible events. But Iowans are tough when the crap comes down, and just like that year they'll come out of this with their heads held high.
The millionth reason Hank Steinbrenner is a jackass
Hank on Chien Mang Wang's foot injury:
"My only message is simple. The National League needs to join the 21st century," Steinbrenner said in Tampa, Fla. "They need to grow up and join the 21st century. Am I [mad] about it? Yes," Steinbrenner added. "I've got my pitchers running the bases, and one of them gets hurt. He's going to be out. I don't like that, and it's about time they address it. That was a rule from the 1800s."
Maybe instead of blaming NL rules, he might want to ask his manager and strength and conditioning coach to get their prized starter ready for being in the line-up in the future and why they did not this time.
Re: The millionth reason Hank Steinbrenner is a jackass
This doesn't change much. Any fan of anything NL-related already hates the Yankees. :D
Re: The millionth reason Hank Steinbrenner is a jackass
who knew steiny jr. could be more of an annoying jackass than his father?

this piece of pissy childish crap isn't his first...emphasis on childish.
A.J. Burnett
THE KERRY WOOD of the JAYS -
I had contemplated how A.J. Burnett might perform in a Cubs uniform.
That is, until I read this comprehensive injury & rap sheet, via the "rumor" site. NO THANKS, Dude...:
1999: Made Major League debut. 162 innings.
2000: Penciled in for Marlins' rotation, but ruptured thumb ligament pushes season debut to late July. 95 innings.
2001: Broken foot pushes season debut to May. Pitches nine-walk no-hitter in second start. 182.6 innings.
2002: Ranks second in baseball in Pitcher Abuse Points per start (thanks to Jeff Torborg). Threw 122 or more pitches nine times. Late in year, has DL stint for an elbow bruise. 204.3 innings.
2003: Burnett goes to arbitration with Marlins and loses. Forearm tightness leads to a cortisone shot in the elbow in March; starts season on DL. Has Tommy John surgery April 29th. In November, Larry Beinfest says the Marlins will be able to afford to retain Burnett after shedding Derrek Lee. 23 innings.
2004: A setback pushes his season debut to June 3rd. Says arm is stronger than it was before surgery, but elbow inflammation surfaces by September. Included in December trade talks with Yankees, D'Backs. 127.3 innings.
2005: Burnett's last year before free agency. He sought a three-year, $21MM deal, but the Marlins offered $16MM and no agreement was reached. Has laser eye surgery in offseason. Elbow inflammation in May, misses one turn. In June-July, trade rumors link him to Orioles, Jays, and White Sox. Burnett's unwillingness to sign an extension and the Marlins' insistence on packaging him with Mike Lowell nixes all deals. September: Burnett rips team and Jack McKeon and is asked to leave the team. 209 innings.
2006: Pursued as free agent by Rangers, Tigers, Mets, Cardinals, Nationals, and five other teams. Signs widely panned five-year, $55MM deal with Jays. Starts season on DL with elbow soreness. Makes a few starts and is placed back on DL. Returns in June. 154.6 innings.
2007: DL stint for shoulder strain in June. Makes one start and returns to DL. 170.6 innings.
2008: Broken fingernail prevents curveballs in spring, but it doesn't become an issue. Mockingly doffs cap while Jays fan boo after poor start. Admits he wouldn't mind playing for Cubs.
Re: A.J. Burnett
Except that Kerry Wood has been the consummate professional and a class-act all the way, while Burnett has apparently been an immature prick with a loud mouth.
But I see your point about the injuries.

Murton Up
Re: Murton Up
Time to showcase Murt.
Re: Murton Up
That's gotta be it, I guess.
To me, the last series would have probably been the one to do it since Toronto was so lefty heavy in the bullpen. We see Kazmir today and then Danks on Friday, but those are the only lefties we face in the next two series. Plus, neither Tampa Bay nor Chicago is heavy on lefties in the pen, either.

I am right there with you closing in on 60.
I don't care that much about "mortgaging" one player who is not only blocked by two guys, but is not ready to hit the majors for at least a couple years.
There is no reason why this team, this year, can't have a real shot at something NONE of us have experienced.
Further, I don't feel that even if they fall short that they have ruined their farm system.
I have made my opinion clear here, with others, Warren was shit on the Cubs save one spot start.
Trading for Warren, Warren sucking, getting Warren back for Chapman plus 3 prospects, sounds like Revenge of The Yankees on the former Boston executive. Old rivalries never die.
I pray to the heavens above Chapman doesn't suck for some reason, or he'll be booed out of town faster than a Todd Hundley revival meeting.
I'm kind of nostalgic for the Schwarber-for-Miller rumors.
This offseason, after some ridiculous playoff run and Chapman saving every game from here until the end of the postseason striking out 27/9innings, I welcome anyone to quote this thread and call me a dummy: I hate this trade, and my hate is 2 parts Chapman makes this team less likeable and 1 part that's a ridiculous overpay for 30 regular season innings and, at tops, 10 postseason innings. Already hoping they don't extend him.
btw...Thanks AZ Phil. I'm really enjoying your take on this trade.
I'm a bit disappointed on the Warren experience. Essentially they gave Castro away for crickets (OK, well they signed Zobrist with the Castro salary dump). Otherwise one might look at it as Chapman for Castro and our #1 minors prospect (Torres) + McKinney/Crawford. Seems pricey for a 2 month rental. We will see if this price tag is that steep in a relative way based on the remaining deadline deals for relievers.
Yep. One of the great things about this team (in addition to being really good at baseball) was the "likable" factor. Feels a bit different now. Who knows...maybe Chapman will be the king of the dance parties.
Here are some possible corresponding minor league moves we might see in the aftermath of the Chapman trade:
SOUTH BEND to MYRTLE BEACH: OF Donnie Dewees and INF Bryant Flete
EUGENE to SOUTH BEND: OF Robert Garcia and INF Vimael Machin
There is really no reason to replace Billy McKinney at Tennessee because both Chris Coghlan and Jorge Soler are doing their rehab at Tennessee.
And there are plenty of pitchers at Iowa. No need to replace Warren at AAA. .
I am 70 years old. The Cubs last played in the World Series in 1945. I was born in 1946. I hate to lose a prospect like Torres, but when the opportunity is there to get that World Series ring, you go for it. This was the idea in stock piling all this young talent. I would like to see Reddick added now and the Cubbies should be done.
I would expect Richard to accept an optional assignment because based on how he's played this season, there is a decent chance that he won't find work elsewhere. Rather stay and potentially get a ring. Same goes for Coghlan since he's struggled mightily this year.
Edwards should not go down. He's pitched very well and Maddon is very impressed with him. I would expect Grimm to go down for Cahill so he can get back on track (he's pitched better in July, but he's not getting enough appearances).
chitownmvp01: Indeed Clayton Richard would seem to be odd man out once Chapman reports, but Richard might accept a minor league assignment if he is promised a return to Chicago on 9/1 when MLB Active List rosters expand (Richard has minor league ioptions left).
The only player in the deal that would cause me a second thought is Gleyber Torres.
McKinney and Crawford are decent prospects but both are redundant/replaceable in the system and Warren was really only a middle-reliever or #6 starter, so to me it's really just Torres for Chapman.
There is no Comp pick for players traded mid-season. 2+ months of Chapman is it.
to get one of the best you have to give up one/some of your best...but it's a bit painful to watch the system's best prospect walk for any 2-3 month rental, especially one that's not an everyday player.
I assume Chapman will replace Richard on the roster, but who goes down when Cahill gets activated? Maybe Grimm?
And when Soler and Coghlan get healthy, how do they fit them on the roster when they're ready to be activated?
We are giving up a lot, but it's not like we're trading Addison Russell for 2+ months of Jason Hammel. When impact players become available, they are going to cost you. The other bids could also have been high.
Having Chapman as a rental is potentially less disruptive than having him come in with an extension in place.
