Hoffpauir, The Sequel
Paul Sullivan writes in the Tribune that the Cubs will recall Micah Hoffpauir from Iowa as the team begins its interleague schedule with three games at SkyDome this weekend. Lou Piniella's plan is to let Hoffpauir play first base and left field, which will alternately allow Derrek Lee and Alfonso Soriano to "rest" as they see DH duty.
Daryle Ward, still on the DL, took batting practice Tuesday and according to Sullivan "will report to the Cubs' complex in Mesa, Ariz., on Wednesday to get
some at-bats before going on a minor-league rehab stint at Iowa."
Re: Hoffpauir, The Sequel
EPat is tearing it up at Iowa -- .333BA, 10-for-10 in SB.
Pie continues to flail -- .178 in 101 AB.
Gotta believe they will try EPat in the OF at some point, but with Pie, Fuld and Colvin playing CF at AAA and AA, where can he get the chance? Moving Pie out of CF would further crush his confidence, and Colvin (although very disappointing this year) is a #1 pick who needs to play.
Maybe winter ball and spring training?
Re: Hoffpauir, The Sequel
Maybe the Cubs could try to trade a prospect when their value is high instead of after they have proven they can't hit in the majors. I hope Epat keeps playing great all the way to the trading deadline.
Re: Hoffpauir, The Sequel
why? so we can then have long posts with everyone bitching about how we let another stud get away from us?
I for one would rather try and develop the talent and see what we get. I know sometimes you gotta make a trade, but there are times when you are better for trades you don't make.
you wouldn't be asking this if Pie had worked out.
Re: Hoffpauir, The Sequel
What studs has the current Cubs management traded away? Hee Seop Choi for Derrek Lee turned out pretty well. Bobby Hill hasn't come back to bite us.
Re: Hoffpauir, The Sequel
ya you are right. there have been some that worked great. some that didn't though. i shoulda let it be though. no reason to dig up old arguments.
its a gamble either way. I just hate it when old cub farm hands end up gold on other teams. via trade, free agency, whatever. I think my memory is being one sided though. I am forgetting some of our recent successes with Marmol, Soto, Hill, Marshall. Though a couple those names are having problems. I just remember the Willis's, Wellemeyer's (ya he sure looked like a dud with us) and others. Of course, I am also forgetting that sometimes it takes these players a change of scenery in order to turn a corner.
I definitely want to see this team make a trade though. I would like to see a reliable starter added. I for one am happy with our offense as is. And of course a trade to get said reliable starter will obviously cost us.
Re: Hoffpauir, The Sequel
I don't blame the Cubs at all for getting rid of Wellemeyer, Florida and Kansas City also gave up on him. I'm still not convinced he will perform as well all season as he had in his start.
There is always waaay too much griping that goes on about losing 'prospects' that never turn out to be much.
Andy Sisco had one decent ERA with the Royals and everyone thought he was going to be great, didn't turn out.
Dontrelle is the only player that the Cubs traded in the low minors who really turned out to be a major league stud, and his run seems to have only lasted about 4 seasons. If we had kept him chances are it would be us not the Tigers fan griping about the $30 million dollars we are paying him.
The Cubs orginization outside of the recent examples (Marmol, Soto) has been really bad at actually getting promosing prospects to perform at the actual major league level, I will shed no tears over lost prospects or 'could have beens'.
NOT SO WELLemeyer

Re: Farm, Free Agent, Trade
It would be interesting to see that breakdown for other clubs as well. I wonder how typical the Cubs are.
Re: Farm, Free Agent, Trade
This would obviously take a long time to complete, but it would be interesting to see how this breakdown compares to the other teams in the league with an analysis on what mix of Farm/FA/Trades generally leads to a higher WP.
This will likely remain an interesting hypothetical though, because that would a TON of work.
Re: Farm, Free Agent, Trade
Fontenot should not be farm, but Trade since he came over for Sosa. Hart should also be Trade and not farm since he came over as the PTBN for Freddie Bynum. Cotts was not a Free Agent, but came to the Cubs via a Trade for David Aardsma and Carlos Vasquez.
That makes the breakdown 9-11-5, 1/5 of the roster aquired via trade.
Re: Farm, Free Agent, Trade
Cotts was an error
But by Farm, I mean the player was developed in our farm system, not that he was drafted by the Cubs. e.g. Matt Murton is Farm.
Unfortunately, for some reason the edit feature has been taken from us, so I can't fix the Cotts error.
But the edited breakdown (by my reckoning) is 11:11:3
Re: Farm, Free Agent, Trade
I mean the player was developed in our farm system, not that he was drafted by the Cubs. e.g. Matt Murton is Farm.
I don't buy this. What does "developed" mean? Is Ryan Dempster "Farm"? He rehabbed in our system. I think Wiscgrad's breakdown makes more sense.
And Matt Murton was tough for Theo to give up, by the accounts I read. He's the last part of that trade the Cubs can hope to get any productivity from. Clearly a "trade".
Re: Farm, Free Agent, Trade
Now, for some damn reason, you're being disingenuous. I don't believe you don't know the difference between rehabbed and developed.
It's my list, my rules. For simplicity (and sanity's sake), players developed in our minor league system are Farm. And by developed I don't mean MLB players who have regressed to the minors or are assigned there for rehab.
But there always will be grey areas. e.g, if the Cubs lose their minds, obtain the contract of Dontrelle Willis, assign him to his present level (A+ Florida State League), and after a year or two in our system he reemerges as a major league arm, he would defy categorization.
Re: Farm, Free Agent, Trade
By that same arguement, the Cubs didn't trade Dontrelle away but the Marlins developed him.
Re: Farm, Free Agent, Trade
It's my list, my rules.
Er, okay. I'll take my ball and go home then.
Re: Farm, Free Agent, Trade
The Edit feature is only available for a certain number of minutes I believe.
Re: Farm, Free Agent, Trade
I guess it depends on how you define "developed." Fontenot played 2002-2004 in the Orioles system, advancing from A, to AA, to AAA. He was then acquired over the winter made his major league debut with the Cubs in 2005. He spent part of 2005, all of 2006 and parts of last season in AAA Iowa. By my reckoning his development was accomplished in his first 3 years in the minors to the point that the Cubs were willing to give him time on the major league roster the year they acquired him.
Similarly Kevin Hart spent 2004-2006 in the Orioles system and spent only part of 2007 in the minors with the Cubs before being called up to the big league team. Again, we can agree to disagree on "development" but by my reckoning I would not consider either of these two players to be complete flyers that the Cubs traded for earlier in their careers and developed into big league talent. I would instead consider them major-league-ready, or near-ready talent that the Cubs acquired via trade.
Re: Farm, Free Agent, Trade
Also, Lieber used to be a trade. : )

Hey, DHing our regulars and putting Hoffpauir in the field. I like that. Good idea, Lou. I hadn't thought of that.
MacPhail Takes Another Cub!
Orioles signed LHP Randy Keisler to a minor league contract and assigned him to Triple-A Norfolk. Keisler had been pitching for the Cubs at Triple-A Iowa, posting a 3.14 ERA and 65/26 K/BB in 66 innings before being let go. (Rotoworld)
Re: Hoffpauir, The Sequel
Speaking of Iowa, it looks like Randy Wells has made a lot of progress over the past year and is a viable option for the rotation if someone breaks down or Marquis implodes. In his 7 starts at Iowa he as put up a line of 38 IP, 26 H, 5 ER, 10 BB, and 33 SO, with an ERA of 1.18. I'd have to imagine that if Hill doesn't put things together soon, and if Marshall doesn't get healthy, Wells becomes option #1.
Re: Hoffpauir, The Sequel
Does anyone know if the Cubs have actually mentioned Wells as a possibility? Or if he has the stuff to compete in the bigs?
Re: Hoffpauir, The Sequel
Couple of interesting notes from Ken Rosenthal this morning.
The Cubs not only will pursue the best available starting pitcher — C.C. Sabathia? — but they also have shown interest in Rockies closer Brian Fuentes, a left-hander who would help reduce the late-inning load on righties Carlos Marmol and Kerry Wood. Fuentes, a free agent at the end of the season, could fill a variety of roles — matchup specialist, setup man, closer — making him appealing to virtually every contender..

Important Game Update
Jair Jurrjens will miss Wednesday's scheduled start after twisting his ankle walking down the dugout stairs on Tuesday night.
Jurrjens' ankle didn't improve overnight, and now the Braves are hoping that he doesn't become the fourth member of their starting rotation to head to the disabled list. Jeff Bennett will start the game in Jurrjen's place on Wednesday night.
Re: Important Game Update
I'd really feel sorry for these guys if we weren't playing them right now.
Re: Important Game Update
Oh we can go ahead and feel sorry for them anyway. We will just root for them to lose at the same time.
Re: Important Game Update
Luckly he wasn't hurt pinch hitting.
Re: Important Game Update
Wow yeah this is like the 85 Cubs all over again, luckily it happens while they are playing us :) but I guess we shouldn't get too overconfident but I'd rather face Bennet than Jurrjens. I do remember Bennet won a big game against the Brewers last year in September that helped us out alot.
Re: Important Game Update
Voodoo doll attacks again...now it's attacking beyond the ex-cub factor.
I'm going to have to use a spreadsheet to track this.
It's like a buzzsaw chewing through the teams who are about to face the Cubs.
Dodgers (Furcal, AJones, Garciaparra, 3/44)
Padres (S. Estes, G Rusch, CYoung, JPeavey, #22)
Rockies (Tulowitzki, Haupe, Barmes)
Braves (C. Jones, Glavine, Jurrjens, Smoltz, Kotsay)
In the division...
Reds (J. Hairston, JR, Keppinger, A. Gonzales, R. Freel)
Brewers (Gallardo, Weeks, Gagne, Cappuano, Riske)
Cardinals (Pujols, Wainwright, Isringhausen, Wellemeyer, Carpenter, Muldur, Clement)
and we play Tampa next week and I'm hearing Carl Crawford has a hamstring problem and is facing a 4 day suspension too (not sure when that happens). Carlos Pena and Troy Percival are also on their DL
Re: Important Game Update
Didn't MLB announce the date each guy would take his suspension? I don't remember what they are but I think the dates are out there and known somewhere.
Re: Hoffpauir, The Sequel
yes, sorry...the Crawford suspension got reduced to 2 games and won't impact the cub series. He's dealing with a sore hamstring but the suspension will probably be to his benefit regarding the leg.
Recent comments
The Cubs have released RHRP Scott Frazier (2013 7th round dfraft pick - Pepperdine).
A Cubs pitching coach told me in Spring Training 2014 that he thought Frazier had the best pure stuff in the organization. Absolutely electric fastball & breaking ball combo. Other pitchers would gather behind the screen just to watch him throw "live" BP. That's how amazing he was.
Got a chance to see Diamondbacks RHSP Zack Greinke (15-day DL - strained oblique) throw a rehab start at Sloan Park Friday night. Four of the first seven AZL Cubs hitters singled and the Cubs did score an unearned run in the bottom of the 1st inning, but then Greinke got serious and struck out five in a row.
ZACK GREINKE: 3.0 IP, 4 H, 1 R (0 ER), 0 BB, 5 K, 4/0 GO/AO, 49 pitches (34 strikes)
Eloy Jimenez grand slam tonight. Hoping Soler power returns and gets hot but future looks bright in the outfield regardless.
Have fun - It may be good for Arrieta to be facing a team that doesn't know him as well as the NL teams. A nice shutout would do wonders for his confidence. He is confident in public but baseball is hard and he could use a boost, I'm sure.
Me too. I'll be at the game tomorrow and would love to see Good Arrieta.
Last few games have been the April version of the Cubs that disappeared completely the past two months.
Hope they can sustain it.
Don't sell yourself short, Judge.
I love this team.
Looks like Mother Nature is trying to call this fight.
Hey! I remember this team!
The key for Heyward's offense: get early leads. Heard a stat on Mike & Mike on the way to work that his avg/power much better this year when the Cubs have the lead. And true to form he gets the two run dinger with Cubs winning 3-0 ...
I'm sorry - I was probably not looking at the correct line, or spot, or...who knows!
I could blame it on the weed, but I stopped smoking many years ago.
Fortunately, I can rely on the rest of you sober and astute folks to bring the correct info forth.
Oh yeah! It just felt like one for some reason.
Agreed. I was not including Fowler or Heyward.
I'm just not a fan of 2016 Coghlan.....
@Dusty Contreras if it's a Lester or Arrieta start. TLS is good PH too. You also forgot about Heyward, assume Fowler is CF.
I expect Soler to get optioned as well when activated and Cahill to replace Grimm. It wouldn't surprise me if Coghlan and/or Soler is included in a trade.
Maybe Coghlan is up to see if he can get on track before someone acquires him.
This move could also be to assure that we have as much OF depth as possible to maximize Joe's ability to rest players in September once we've clinched.
Maddon basically said as much...Fowler still kind of sore, they're being proactive, etc.

Love the phone so much!Its a great use of android, works really well. The screen is second to none, thats for sure! The battery life as with all smart phones is average, as with most smart phones, make sure to run the update, as this will help with the battery life!
The speaker is good, but isn't as loud as the iphone 5. Beats audio option is frankly annoying, and would have liked more options with regards the the audio.
The whole interface is great tho, and very easy to use. Certainly got me liking android alot! HTC have done alot of good work with this phone.

I had read previous reviews of this book before I bought it, apparently by a few close personal friends of the writer.
It seems a shame that the book market is being over flooded these days by self help books by so called experts. It's even a bigger shame when these experts use their religious beliefs and faith in God to cash in on a popular trend.

We were independent -no neighbours fantastic view
The grounds were well kept and it was very quiet in October. The location was excellent and we were not pestered about our two dogs.
The beds were really uncomfortable and creaked. The room was a little dark
the space of the grounds..alot of open spaces.
all was ok........
The hotel is nearby the beach and just away from the main tourist area.
The hotel needs some heavy refurbished. The food is basic.
Food was terribles for all inclusive the dinning room was like they were feeding starving people no class what so ever. Rooms old style loud and air units were a joke. location good and thank god for that.
food was terrible for all inclusive. The dinning room was like they were feeding starving people. No class whats so ever. if you want a heart attack eat there. Outside my room was the bins and each morning at 5am they were collected it was so so loud went on for 30 mins. air conditioning unit did not work. . Not happy
The resort is located in one of the few unspoiled areas of the Algarve, in an environment protected area, far from the main centers. The access to the beach is direct, although the hotel beach is on the ria and not in the sea. One shall cross the ria during the low tide. The sea beach is one of the best kept secrets of Algarve: almost desert, sandy, long, and with warm waters.
The resort is a German 'island' in the Algarve, as it is conceived specifically for these clients. However, it is very family friendly and pleasant hotel.
a pleasant, relaxing, peaceful stay
lack of tv channels in English, other than the news
Fine relaxing rest! Pleasant design, spacious rooms, compact kitchen with bosch technics. a place - remarkable, in pine wood. The hotel location is one of the most beautiful places in Algarve.
Is absent accessible wi-fi. Connection to the Internet only by means of a cable.
Ideal "respectable" central location. Very close to supermarket, restaurants, shops and ferry for Spain. New furnishing and bathroom fittings (June 2010). Rua D.Pedro v is the street opposite the post office.

Apple hires Amazon exec Stasior to run Siri
Apple has hired Amazon exec William Stasior to run its Siri unit, according to a report from AllThingsD. With a doctoral degree from MIT, Stasior was recently in charge of A9, Amazon's search and search advertising unit, which he co-founded, and previously served as an executive with AltaVista. Although Stasior will be in charge of Siri, the report speculates Stasior could also help to boost Apple's search and search advertising technology. Apple's Siri unit has notably lost two co-founders in the past year — Adam Cheyer left recently, and co-founder and former CEO Dag Kittlaus left last October — raising further questions about Apple's ability to retain key personnel after major acquisitions.

Here's hoping he can pull it out of beta. Me and my daughter have only had access to Siri since Friday and it is one great source of comedic relief but not remotely functional.
In addition to the bit about, "raising further questions about Apple's ability to retain key personnel after major acquisitions", it also highlights what I see as one of Apple's bigger stumbles in recent years: they love going after what they see as the shortcut.
They notice a popular app and instead of thinking they should put more effort into their own inadequate voice control they'd left fallow for years, they decide to spend over 200 million for the app and make it exclusive to certain hardware "just because". Apple could have hired 200 top shelf programmers, assigned them to voice control project, and paid them for a decade for what they paid for Siri. Now after more than a year, Siri is still a toy, and because they've made it such a high profile part of iOS AND Android equivalents are popping up like mushrooms, now they're right back at having to do all the heavy lifting themselves, including poaching this guy for who knows how much money, because they thought it would be easy to just buy it off the shelf.

Peter "Keegan" Wyshosky was 8 years old when he was diagnosed with his brain tumor in the center of the cerebellum in September of 2014. Keegan went through surgery to have it removed and has been working on recovering ever since. When we found out the news about the brain tumor Keegan said, "Mom, am I going to die?" I said, "No, Keegan, we are going to fight". Keegan is a true warrior. Life has become a daily challenge for him, but he never complains. Keegan is the son of Shalmar Herlihy- Mantz and the late Peter Wyshosky. He has a 19 year old sister, Kassandra, and a doggie, Jupie. Keegan attends St. Joseph's Regional Academy in Jim Thorpe, PA.

PULLMAN, Wash. -- It's that same old USC gall. You love it if you root for the Trojans and you hate it if you don't.
Imagine the confidence of a coaching staff that refers to its first four games as the "preseason."
Imagine one that would later admit to using that term, as Lane Kiffin did after Saturday's 50-16 win over Washington State. So, the Trojans' first four games, wins of varying shapes against Hawaii, Virginia, Minnesota and Washington State, were basically exhibition games?
That's what he told his team.
"Coach Kiffin said earlier we treated this kind of like a preseason through Game 4," quarterback Matt Barkley said.
I guess the lights finally come on next Saturday night at the Coliseum, when Washington comes to town trying for its second straight win over USC. So, the preseason is finally over, right Lane?
"I don't know that," Kiffin said. "I just know we're 4-0. We wanted to get through these four games healthy, not worrying about the score and then have an idea who our team is. I think we do have that now."
It is beginning to feel like this team is figuring out an identity. At some point, it will have to prove it by doing something other than looking in the mirror. If that first test isn't against Washington, which has shown mixed signals early, it will be the following week at Stanford, maybe the most physical team in the conference.
"The first four games, all that matters is we won all four of them," tailback Allen Bradford said. "Now, we get the meat of our schedule."
USC gets more resistance when it scrimmages than it did from Washington State for most of Saturday, so you had to look closely for signs of emergence. You could see them poking through here and there. USC finally covered the point spread. Maybe that will keep it from sinking in the writers' poll for the fourth straight week.
After a sloppy first half, kept deceptively close by the Trojans' three turnovers, they hit the throttle in the second. USC played a virtually flawless third quarter, turning it into the requisite blowout, and then the second units came on and mopped up professionally in the fourth.
Nobody yet knows how this team measures up against a conference that is showing signs of being the best in the nation, of course. But Saturday had USC feeling as good as it has since the drastic NCAA sanctions hit in June. For the second week in a row, the team sang "Fight On!" in the locker room. For the first week in a row, it felt fulfilled.
"That was the closest we've played to a complete game," Kiffin said.
After giving up 230 yards in the first half, the defense yielded just 93 in the second. It continued to stuff the run, holding Washington State to 67 yards on 26 carries.
After turning the ball over three times in the first, the offense held onto it carefully for the rest of the day.
After causing a blizzard of penalty flags in the first three games, the Trojans played with a little discipline. They lost just 39 yards because of penalties.
They blocked a extra-point attempt and a punt. And they never punted themselves.
This was far from an afternoon of perfection. Other signs are more ominous. This defense, big and powerful, continues to look susceptible when offenses spread it out. Washington State moved 80 yards in nine plays using a spread, no-huddle offense on the opening drive of the game. Clearly, the Cougars had dreamed up that game plan from watching USC cough up 588 total yards to a run-and-shoot team from Hawaii.
And Barkley, who got through the first two games without throwing an interception, has now thrown four in the last two games. Kiffin called Barkley's first-half performance "disappointing." Bradford fumbled for the second game in a row.
If the rest of the nation rolls its eyes at a predictably easy win over hapless Washington State, the Cougars didn't. At least one member of the Washington State team saw a potential conference champion on his field Saturday.
"They're a great ball club across the board," said Washington State receiver Jared Karstetter. "On defense, they're fast and they're physical. On offense, they run the ball well. I just think they're a great team and a great program and have been as long as I can remember."
Of course, everything is different for the Trojans nowadays. As they were making the long walk from the field to their locker room here, a young fan in a Washington State jersey yelled out, "Good luck in your bowl game." The Trojans are banned from competing in a bowl game this season and next. That means their loftiest goal is to finish the season 13-0 and let people wonder where they would have fit into the national-title picture.
That goal seems to be lurking far off somewhere, maybe in the Gobe Desert or perhaps on a tiny little island in the Pacific. This team is young and it's all about incremental steps, but you could make a believable case that it has made four straight weeks of progress. And frankly, since it has viewed these first four games as preseason competition, it probably has been holding a few things back.
In a way, you had to look at the first four opponents as the canvas. Saturday the Trojans didn't paint a masterpiece, but it may have been worthy of a museum somewhere.
"Coach Kiffin said before the game that this would probably be our signature game, where we come together as a team, and I think we really did that," safety Jawanza Starling said. "No matter who you're playing, it's about what we do as a team. It's always about us."
There's that USC swagger again. But will these guys still be so sure of themselves in a month, or even in a week?

Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit has asked Union Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde to order a "high-level independent inquiry" into the "interference" by top police officials when an executive magistrate sought to record the 23-year-old gangrape victim's statement at Safdarjung Hospital on Saturday.
In her note to Shinde on Monday, Dikshit has cited a letter sent to her by Deputy Commissioner (East) B M Mishra on Saturday following a complaint from Sub-Divisional Magistrate (Vivek Vihar) Usha Chaturvedi in this regard.
According to Mishra's letter, Chaturvedi faced "interference" from "ACPs and DCP of Delhi Police, while recording the statement of the rape victim". Dikshit noted that the contents of the SDM's complaint and Mishra's letter were "alarming and serious".
In her complaint sent to Mishra on Saturday, Chaturvedi said that when she reached Safdarjung Hospital, DCP (South), ACP (Vasant Vihar) and ACP (Defence Colony) were also present. The police officers reportedly asked her to record the victim's statement as per a questionnaire prepared by them.
Chaturvedi has also claimed that the briefing she got from these police officials, based on the statement of the victim's friend and their investigations, did not match the victim's actual statement.
"They tried to pressurise me to record the statement as per their convenience and when I refused, they misbehaved and tried to intimidate me. Also, a huge amount of time was wasted over the issue of videography during the recording of the statement of the victim as the police were trying to dissuade me from doing this. Finally, the videography was not carried out as the mother of the victim refused the same," wrote Chaturvedi.
She said that she was finally "able to start the recording of the statement of the victim at around 8 pm after forcibly evicting the police personnel from the ICU".
Mishra had already sent a copy of Chaturvedi's complaint to Lieutenant Governor Tejendra Khanna, the Home Secretary and the Chief Secretary of Delhi.

we spent 4 nights in the valamar club, me and my friend, both 40+ females. We knew it was more of a family friendly hotel, but went to check it out for possible future trips with our children. We were pleasantly surprised as to how clean everywhere was and how friendly the staff were towards us, we felt completely safe. We were on the 'all inclusive light' food was plentiful and varied, you could always find something to eat. Free drinks were limited to meal times only, and consisted of local beer (tasty), red and white wine (very tasty) and soft drinks, inc water. The view from the pool is beautiful, overlooking the adriatic and you can watch the cruise liners passing by into dubrovnik. The rooms are quite basic and in need of some updating, but have a flat screen tv and are very clean.
The bus stop is at the top of the hill outside the hotel and takes you directly into the old time in about 15 mins, be prepared to stand on the bus. Overall, would return there.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):

Posted on 10/03/2004 11:09:24 AM PDT by stockpirateEdited on 10/03/2004 12:01:46 PM PDT by Admin Moderator. [history]

1) I went to the FoxNews video on dailrecycler.com
2) From the full screen version, I captured 4 still frames
3) The frames were aligned.
4) Red circles were added for focus.
6) The 4 gif frames were animated to produce the image here.
Others in FR have already observed this slight-of-hand. They have pointed out the right hand action timed with the left hand ("pen") action, but others have dismissed it. I think this animation leaves only one question:
What are you going to believe what the spinners say or your own eyes?
While most agree that the Bush camp, should not make this an issue, others should not be silenced by spin and verbal misdirection. What good is this new "alternate media", if the final decision is still left to the MSM. ( I tried viewing the 1,000 plus prior postings on this subject, and if others have done this graphic already, my apologies.)
The answer is simple enough. We have to get the MSM to go to the tape again - even though they didn't want to the first time.
I think Kerry was given the questions in advance, listed them with the talking points on the flip pad and basically read a script the whole time. It was full of contradictory garbage because that's what Dim policies are, but it was all there. Wouldn't we love to see a high-res overhead during the debate.
is the right hand going for the pen and the left has the paper. I truly can't tell. I thought the left went in the breast pocket for the paper.
To break the agreement for such a small item INVITES these questions!
I can't even imagine what's coming next -- it's been one thing after the other, and I could never have dreamed this stuff up in my wildest imagination.
(I guess my imagination isn't very wild, now that I think about it...)
How dare you fools say anything about cheating one's way out of combat duty, Kerry's medals speak for themselves, as do Bush's, or the lack thereof.
Your candidate is losing. I'm sorry you're upset.
Where did you go? I miss you.

text: 000 FXUS65 KSLC 292205 AFDSLC Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Salt Lake City UT 405 PM MDT FRI JUL 29 2016 .SYNOPSIS...High pressure aloft across the southern Rockies into southern California will remain in place over the next several days. Moisture rotating around this ridge will increase across the region this weekend, then remain in place through early next week. && .SHORT TERM (UNTIL 06Z TUESDAY)...The upper ridge axis across the southern Rockies through southern California will remain relatively unchanged in position through the short term forecast period. Deep layer moisture concentrated across Arizona through southern Nevada has worked into southwest Utah this afternoon. Will see this moisture continue to wrap around upper ridge and eventually cover the state by late Saturday afternoon or early evening. For this evening will maintain the greatest concentration of showers/storms near the best moisture over west-central through south-central Utah. Isolated showers/storms will continue over the northeast mountains until loss of heating around mid-evening. A possible vorticity max over north-central Nevada could bring isolated thunderstorms into northwest Utah later tonight. Suspect this activity will at best generate isolated dry storms over the far north, with little support to move into northeast Utah and southwest Wyoming late tonight/early Saturday. Looking at a significant increase in convection as moisture expand over the remainder of the state Saturday. Most of this convection will generate minimal rainfall outside of southwest Utah where the moisture profile should be more supportive for locally heavy rainfall. Winds and lightning look to be the main impact from convection on Saturday afternoon. the upper level trough settling into the Pacific Northwest through the northern Rockies Saturday night/Sunday could bring strong convection to the northern for the latter half of the weekend. Embedded shortwaves associated with the main trough will graze far northern Utah Saturday evening, then again on Sunday, This dynamic support along with a favorable moisture profile should be sufficient for organized, and possibly strong, convection with these passing features. Drier air will begin to move northern Utah/southwest Wyoming early next week. For the remainder of the state the bulk of the weekend moisture will remain in place, leading to mostly terrain-based convection to begin the week. .LONG TERM (AFTER 06Z TUESDAY)...Moisture is forecast to reside across much of the forecast area at the beginning of the long term period, as mid level ridging is forecast to reside near the Four Corners region. An upper low is forecast to quickly translate eastward through the Pacific Northwest/Northern Rockies region Tuesday through Tuesday night. The models differ a bit with respect to how much drying occurs across northern Utah in the wake of this wave during the midweek period, with the EC more aggressively pushing drier air southward into Utah, while the GFS is more stubborn in keeping deeper moisture across a good portion of the CWA. Regardless, moisture looks to remain in place across southern UT throughout the upcoming week. Temperatures at the beginning of the long term period will remain above normal, but with slightly cooler air behind the passing wave, should see a slight cooling trend during the latter half of the week. && .FIRE WEATHER...Moisture circulating around the upper high over the southern Rockies remains concentrated over the southern two- thirds of Utah this afternoon. This moisture will work north across the remainder of the state Saturday, leading to scattered convection across all fire districts this weekend. For tonight convection will likely not generate more than isolated wetting rains across southern Utah. The threat for mostly dry thunderstorms and the associated gusty/erratic winds will keep the fire danger on the high side down south overnight and well into Saturday afternoon. Wetting rains may finally become a bit more common for the south as the air mass continues to moisten down south late Saturday afternoon and evening. For the north could see a few dry thunderstorms over the northeast mountains and near the Nevada border this evening. The increase in moisture Saturday will lead to increased areal coverage of showers/storms, though the threat of wetting rains will remain low. Will expand the REd Flag Warning to cover all zones with critical fuel conditions. A weather disturbance moving east across the northern Rockies late Sunday/Monday will draw somewhat drier air into the far north heading into early next week. For the remainder of the region moisture will remain in place, leading to the potential of showers and thunderstorms, mainly terrain-based, into early next week. && .AVIATION...Winds at the SLC terminal are expected to switch back to the southeast around 03-05Z. Clouds will likely increase overnight, but any ceilings should remain above 7000 feet. && .SLC Watches/Warnings/Advisories... UT...Red Flag Warning until 10 PM MDT Saturday for UTZ492-493-495-497- 498. Red Flag Warning from 10 AM Saturday to 3 AM MDT Sunday for UTZ478>484-488-489. Excessive Heat Warning until 9 PM MDT this evening for UTZ019. WY...None. && $$ SHORT TERM...CONGER LONG TERM...SEAMAN AVIATION...SCHOENING FIRE WEATHER...

If you are looking for a quick and easy way to make a unique purse, start with a placemat or two. This is a guide about making a placemat purse.
I have been making purses or tote bags using placemats. Most placemats are lined or reversible so there is no need to line the purses. Just fold the place mat in half and sew a seem up each side. Stitch across the flattened bottom corner to make a flat bottom for the purse. Turn it inside out so that the seams are inside the purse. You don't even have to hem the top side of the purse because it is hemmed already on the place mat.

As sort of a follow-up to last week's post ("The Bruce Timm Batman is Back… Kinda"), here is another video that was just released in celebration of Batman's 75th Anniversary.
This time it's revisiting the Batman Beyond universe, and it is directed by acclaimed comic bookist Darwyn Cooke! Take a look-see:
This one isn't quite as successful I think as Bruce Timm's short, but mostly because of the much-shorter running time. The story feels compressed and rushed; edits are too fast and the pacing is kinda jumbled. It's almost more like it's a trailer than an actual short.
That said, it's a clever (if un-resolved) little short, and the pan at the end is pretty epic. Can you name them all?
Bruce Timm, the man who was the impetus for the 1990s Batman: The Animated Series and much of the rest of the DC Animated Universe, has returned to the Dark Knight for his 75th Anniversary, directing a brand-new animated short: Batman: Strange Days.
Rather than taking place in the B:TAS universe, Timm has taken the Caped Crusader back to his roots, imagining him in a pulp serial from 1939 (the year Batman debuted in Detective Comics) going up against Dr. Hugo Strange and Solomony Grundy (at least I'm pretty sure that's Grundy) to rescue a blonde bombshell. It's good fun, and really makes me miss B:TAS.
This is a movie that feels right while you're watching it, but doesn't hold up well to any sort of scrutiny, and has way more problems than Nolan's previous two movies in this trilogy. Spoilers abound! Also, for no reason other than it amuses me, I'm only ever going to refer to Batman as B'man for the remainder of this review… [Read my full reviews]

About ten years ago artist Cliff Chiang whipped up, just for fun, a bunch of pastiches of DC superheroes and classic Anime.
The results are pretty durned awexome:
I love Science Ninja Hero Batman, Superman as a Gaiking-style Giant Robot piloted by a young boy's wristwatch (with Clark Kent as the scientist who invented the robot), and the crazy Wonder Woman/Captain Harlock mashup.
DC actually briefly considered greenlighting this, but eventually passed. It's too bad.
I would absolutely read this comic.

Link of the Month:
Unintentional Housewife
A very funny blog from a professional woman who suddenly found herself career-less and decided to make a go of this whole "housewife" thing. It manages to be personal and universal at the same time. And, bonus: I TOTALLY KNOW HER IN REAL LIFE!
DVD & Album of the Month:
Daft Punk: Tron Legacy Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
An incredibly effective soundtrack that is intense and strong, and moves surprisingly between the expected electronic music and traditional orchestral-style soundtrack music. It would be a bad idea to play this soundtrack while you're driving because it really just makes you want to go. It's very driven, and one of the best movie soundtracks since Trent Reznor's The Social Network and Michael Giacchino's Up.
DVD of the Month:
Batman: Under the Red Hood
This is a surprisingly good Batman movie, near the very top of the list. It's an intensely personal story about Batman's greatest failure and some unexpected consequences. Great vocal performances by Bruce Greenwood as Batman, Jensen Ackles as the titular Red Hood, and the ubiquitous John DiMaggio (best known as Bender on Futurama) as the Joker. It's heart-wrenching and action-packed.

I must admit, I was completely stumped as to what to do for my Hween costume this year. After the Hard Hat last year, Pac-Man the year before, and Sinistar a couple of years before that, I wanted to make a costume that was a little less… intensive. But, as I said, I was stumped. Carrie & I batted some ideas around, and I thought Bomberman would be cool 'cause I could make a big plush bomb to throw around. But I couldn't figure out how to easily do that gigantic head of his. Then suddenly Carrie came up with the idea that I should be my own Mii, and just like that my problem was solved! The Mii of me on my Wii looks an awful lot like me. But how to make a costume out of that as simply as possible? Thankfully, there is an online tool where you can make your own Miis: the Mii Creator. All I had to do was select all the right parts and then fudge them around until the Mii on the screen looked the same as the Mii on the Wii. I took a screen capture and brought it into Photoshop so I could fix the hairline. The online Mii Creator is a little bit too literal about the thumbnails of the hairstyles looking exactly like the hairstyles; the one I use on the Wii looked different than the same style online. But I fixed it, then printed it out on an 8.5″ × 11quot; piece of glossy photo paper, then carefully cut it out. I cut out a piece of cardboard that was slightly smaller than the Mii, and poked two holes in it at about ear-level. I strung a comfortable organza ribbon through the holes, then mounted the piece of cardboard on the back of the photo paper, voila: I didn't make any eyeholes (I didn't want to ruin the aesthetic), so I would have to rely on my peripheral vision to move around, but that was fine; many of my costumes have had no vision whatsoever. I wasn't quite done yet, though. If you look at that image of the Mii Creator up there, you'll notice something about the Mii's hands. Miis don't really have hands. They just have spheres on the ends of their arms. I wanted my costume to be as authentic as possible, so I decided to make a couple of sphere fists for myself. But how? By sewing, of course! I had no idea how to sew a ball, but thankfully we're well into the 21st century now and pretty much all how-to knowledge is somewhere on teh intarwebz. A quick search came up with this reasonable set of instructions on how to make a plush ball. I went and bought a long-sleeved purple T-shirt (it was a UW shirt that I just turned inside-out) and some cheap fabric that was a close-enough color. I cut out 12 foot-ball-shaped pieces of the purple fabric. I took 'em over to mum's house and used her sewing machine to sow them together in sets of three, so that I had six hemispheres. I then sewed the hemispheres together into two spheres, leaving about a three-inch gap in them so that I could insert my hand. Then I turned the shirt's sleeves inside-out (well, right-side-out in this case because I wanted the shirt to end up being inside-out) and sewed the spheres to them like this: Once both spheres were sewn on, I turned the shirt right-side-out (inside-out in this case) and then stuffed the spheres full of poly-fill so that they'd maintain their shape. Then all I had to do was put on the shirt halfway, tie on the mask, and then slip my hands into the spheres and my costume was complete! I am my own Mii! And it was comparatively easier than the costumes I did the last couple of years. Then if you're lucky you'll get to hang out with a hottie like Tia, whose costume was her own character from Rock Band: Everyone seemed to love me being my Mii quite a lot. I liked it quite a lot as well, though there were two problems with the costume:
My "Batmen of Many Variations" jack-o-lanterns were also a hit, though not as popular as my Pac-Man punkins (though more popular than my Space Invaders punkins). Here are some photos of my 2008 punkins all lit up and purdy: On Hween night we did our annual tradition where I make a metric tonne of Reuben sammitches and Carrie makes a delicious Russian potato soup with green beans, sauerkraut, and dill. Hope everyone else's Hween was equally as enjoyable as mine, if not moreso.
