Mike Trout or Miguel Cabrera?
It's a debate -- both on the field and in fantasy -- that has raged on for more than a calendar year, and is sure to extend for at least the next calendar year. On the morning of Sept. 19, Cabrera held a razor-thin edge on our Player Rater, leading Trout by less than one-tenth of a point. The race for fantasy baseball's most productive player of 2013, therefore, is on.
Now I know what you're thinking: You want me to tell you which one will be better in the season's final 11 days, scoring that top spot, don't you?
OK, I'll take Trout, as he's the one more likely to garner the greater number of plate appearances the rest of the way, considering Cabrera has dealt with minor but nagging injuries since July, and that his Detroit Tigers might prefer to rest him for the playoffs once they've clinched rather than push him in a pair of meaningless three-game road series in Minnesota and Miami to conclude the regular season.
But if you're fishing for the name of the No. 1 player in my early 2014 rankings, you'll just have to check back next week, when rankings return. For this week, rest-of-year rankings have been removed; any matchups-related information for the season's final 11 days can be found in either my Week 24 Forecaster, or my season-concluding Week 25 edition that will be published Friday.
For now, let's resume our awards conversation, which began with Wednesday's 60 Feet, 6 Inches. It's time for the hitters' side of "The Turks," my annual awards handed out for (mostly) unusual statistical baseball feats.
Here we go!
The Babe (fantasy's best hitter): Mike Trout. First, some perspective on the award's name: Babe Ruth is a household name to any baseball fan -- even my 6-year-old son knows about Babe Ruth -- but what many might fail to appreciate is how substantial his statistical advantage was comparative to his brethren during the earlier stages of his career. Consider this: In 1919, Ruth swatted a major league-leading 29 home runs; that was more than 10 of the 16 teams in baseball hit. And in 1920, Ruth hit 54 to again set a new standard; that was more than 14 of the 16 teams hit, and it was 8.6 percent of baseball's entire total! To compare, Chris Davis, this season's leading home run hitter (with 51) has hit only 1.2 percent of the majors' total. Had fantasy baseball existed in the 1920s, there might have needed to be a "Babe Ruth rule": Either he was ineligible to be drafted, or his statistical categories were drafted separately (one team gets his homers, another his RBIs, etc.), due to the comparative advantage he provided.
No one in today's game enjoys that kind of advantage, but Trout gets the edge here because of what he provides on the basepaths: He has 30 more stolen bases (33-3) and eight more runs scored (108-100) than Cabrera, and in a season in which steals production overall is down, it's the speedster you want if his other offensive contributions are good. There is no "clear" answer to the Player Rater leader question; perhaps I merely want to reward Trout after he was so badly stiffed in last year's MVP balloting.
The Breakout fantasy player of the year: Chris Davis. Davis just broke Brady Anderson's Baltimore Orioles franchise record for home runs on Tuesday, hitting his 51st, and he is now one of only two players in the past six seasons to have reached the 50-homer threshold (Jose Bautista, with 54 in 2010, is the other). Davis' accomplishments this year are astonishing: He has averaged one home run per 10.7 at-bats, has hit a major league-leading 14 opposite-field homers and has hit 24 home runs on the road (second only to Cabrera's 27), alleviating any concern that he was a ballpark-fueled power product. What's more, Davis has done it by substantially improving his plate discipline, with his 10.5 percent walk rate representing an increase of nearly 4 percent, and his 31 percent chase rate a 5-plus percent improvement.
Chris Davis was this year's breakout player of the year, hands down. He was the No. 86 hitter, and No. 149 player overall, selected in the preseason, and come season's end, he'll probably be the No. 3 hitter and player overall on our Player Rater.
The Renoir (for the best off-the-waiver-wire hitting buy): Josh Donaldson. This award could just as easily have gone to Jean Segura or Matt Carpenter, but I dig deep when dishing these out. Both of them were late-round picks even in our standard 10-team mixed game, and upon the conclusion of the season's first weekend -- the April 6-7 one which often represents draft day for those who use old-school, traditional Rotisserie rules -- Carpenter was owned in 66.8 percent of ESPN leagues, and Segura was owned in 24.1 percent of them. Donaldson, meanwhile, was on rosters in only 0.4 percent of ESPN leagues, and to illustrate how unknown of a player he was, he was a mere $2 buy in the annual League of Alternative Baseball Reality (LABR) and $10 in Tout Wars AL-only auctions; those are 12-team AL-only leagues with standard rosters (i.e. it's uber-deep).
With the lone exception of a so-so July -- he batted just .233/.340/.356 with three home runs in 25 games that month -- Donaldson has been consistently productive, with a batting average of .300 or better in four other months (April, May, June and September) and an OPS of at least .822 in every month but July. The result is a No. 24 current standing among hitters on our Player Rater, fifth among third base-eligibles and third at that position among players who will retain 2014 eligibility there. And as Donaldson has improved his plate-discipline numbers to the point that they're almost spot-on to the ones he enjoyed in the minors -- he has an 11.1 percent walk rate and a 16.4 percent strikeout rate this year (11.8 and 17.9 during his minor league career) -- he has an outstanding chance of repeating the performance in 2014, albeit with some possible batting-average correction (perhaps to the .280-.290 range).
The Tony Phillips (for the most versatile, productive player in fantasy): Matt Carpenter. Carpenter deserves some hardware, even if he missed the cut in the category above. It's both his role as the St. Louis Cardinals' leadoff hitter, as well as his multi-position eligibility, that warrants a mention this season. Here's a fun Carpenter fact: Using Baseball-Reference.com's Play Index (PI) tool, we can determine that there have been only 23 instances of a season during which a player appeared in at least 20 games apiece at first base, second base and third base to earn eligibility at all three in the subsequent season, and of those 23, only Frank Catalanotto (2000), Vic Power (1959) and Pete Runnels (1958) managed numbers in those follow-up campaigns that would have placed even in the ballpark of Carpenter's top-five status at all three on the 2013 Player Rater (and none would really have been close). Granted, this ignores the fact Carpenter actually didn't enter 2013 with second base eligibility, but researching first-and-third eligibles who added second base to the mix in-season would be massively time-consuming.
The point is that Carpenter's season has been one for the fantasy record books, one during which he has the majors' most runs scored (119), hits (190) and doubles (51, though he's tied with Manny Machado for that lead), and one during which he was adapting to full-time duty at the somewhat unfamiliar position of second base. Better yet, Carpenter played 40 games at third base, so he'll enter 2014 dual-eligible again.
The Late-Season Savior (for the most remarkable turnaround, mostly off the waiver wire, during the stretch run): Will Venable. Venable has earned "Hit Parade" praise on numerous occasions over the past several weeks, and it's with good reason. He was widely available in ESPN leagues for much of the summer, and on our Player Rater "Last 30" split, he's the No. 23 hitter thanks to .295/.336/.495 triple-slash rates, five home runs, 11 RBIs, six stolen bases and 15 runs scored in 26 games. But it's actually his second-half performance that warrants mention: He's a .325/.363/.569 hitter with 11 homers and 11 steals in 54 games since the All-Star break.
Venable's specific improvements were the topic of last week's column, but the importance of repeating his name here is to tout his remaining schedule: @PIT-1, LAD-3, ARI-4, @SF-3. That's four more road games, and 10 of his final 11 that, as things stand now, have him projected to face right-handed starters.
That Ball Had Eyes Award (for the highest BABIP in baseball): Chris Johnson (.401). Four-oh-one! Perhaps that number won't mean anything to you, but putting it into historical perspective might: If it sticks -- he has 11 days left to maintain it -- it would be only the 57th instance in history of a .400-plus BABIP season, the 46th among players with at least 500 plate appearances in the given season and, most remarkably, the second-highest BABIP in the history of baseball in which the player struck out at least three times as often as he walked (Jose Hernandez's .404 in 2002, when he whiffed 188 times but walked 52, is the record).
Yes, a .400-plus BABIP for a free swinger is a rarity, and Johnson and Hernandez fall into that classification. Johnson's 0.25:1 walk-to-strikeout rate is 16th worst of 141 batting-title qualifiers, his swing (52.5 percent) and chase (33.7) rates 16th and 25th worst. Hernandez's 0.28:1 walk-to-K rate, meanwhile, was seventh worst of 151 qualifiers in 2002. Even more startling, Johnson's ground ball rate (46.4 percent) is higher than the major league average (44.5), and his well-hit average (.171) -- that's the percentage of his at-bats that resulted in hard contact -- is below average (.174), meaning he's almost entirely fueling his BABIP with a bloated line-drive rate of 23.0 percent. Frankly, it's amazing that he has hung in the National League's batting-title race for this long, and his fantasy owners surely should've enjoyed it this season, because he might well revert to his .290 career-average self in 2014.
The 'Who Needs Air Conditioning?' Award (for the most whiff-prone hitter in baseball): Chris Carter, 36.8 percent K rate. Again, that raw number might not grab you, but putting it into historical perspective will: It is not only the major leagues' highest K rate this season, and by more than 4 percent at that (Mike Napoli's 32.4 percent is second), it's actually the highest rate in the history of the game among batting title-eligibles … and it easily trumps Mark Reynolds' 3-year-old record of 35.4 percent by more than 1 percent.
Incredibly, no one seems to be giving Carter the Adam Dunn-in-2011 criticism -- Dunn's 35.7 percent K rate in a 496-plate appearance (non-batting-title-eligible) season is the only other year in proximity -- and it's probably because Carter has been much more productive, with 16 additional home runs (27-11) and 35 more RBIs (77-42) than Dunn had in that year. Carter's whiff-tastic ways, however, are catching up to him, as he hit 18 of his 27 homers during the season's first half, with his isolated power dropping from .240 before the All-Star break to .205 after it. Pitchers might be catching on to the fact he's a dead-red fastball hitter -- 32 of his 48 career home runs came off fastballs and his slugging percentage against them is .548 -- and if he can't make adjustments, he could be in for a long 2014.
The "Jekyll and Hyde" (for first-half excellence followed by a second-half swoon): Jean Segura. No qualified hitter -- meeting minimum qualifications in either half-season, that is -- has experienced as much of a drop-off in wOBA (weighted on-base percentage) from the first to the second half, with Segura's plummeting by 106 points (.367 before the break, .261 after it). His swoon was the subject of last week's Hit Parade, and in his defense, at least he has gone 4-for-5 in stolen base attempts in six games, alleviating some of the concern regarding one of his disappointing numbers of late. But with Segura's hitting the subject of major question since the All-Star break, might it be that fantasy owners should regard his future as a more volatile one annually, rather than recalling his hot start that seemed to destine him for annual top-five status? Segura does have a checkered injury history (and suffered a hamstring injury Wednesday), so he might be one of the more unpredictable players over the next decade, as likely to finish second as 18th at his position, even if he should enjoy a productive overall fantasy career.
The "Hyde and Jekyll" (the previous one in reverse; terrible first half followed by great second half): Hunter Pence. A tip of the cap to colleague Eric Karabell, who brought attention to Pence's torrid second half on a recent "Fantasy Focus" podcast. Pence's 94-point boost in wOBA between halves (.324 before the break, .418 after it) is the majors' best among batting title-eligible players, and he's actually fifth in both batting average (.345) and wOBA (.418) since the All-Star break, chipping in 11 home runs and seven stolen bases.
What's more, in the past 30 days, Pence has the second-most homers (10), is one of only two players with at least nine homers and three stolen bases (10 and 3; Coco Crisp has the same of each) and he paces the majors with 29 RBIs despite playing for a team that has averaged a mere 4.39 runs per game during that span (that's only slightly better than the major league average of 4.13). Pence might take unjust criticism for his awkward hitting mechanics, but he has been remarkably consistent throughout his career, hitting between 22 and 25 home runs in each of his past six seasons and driving in between 91 and 104 runs in each of his past four. Where he winds up as a free agent should be one of the many stories fantasy owners should track this winter.

Skip to comments.Some Date! (Highschool/College Scene: No Date, No Dance, Just Hanging Out and Hooking Up?)
Posted on 11/17/2007 4:53:59 PM PST by Mrs. Don-o
Last month, a boy asked my 16-year-old daughter to his school's homecoming dance. She agreed to go, bought a new dress and made a hairdresser appointment.
The boy never bought tickets to the dance. Neither did his friends. They decided that attending homecoming wouldn't be cool, and instead planned to just dress up that night, go out for dinner and then hang out with their dates at someone's house.
My daughter was disappointed, as were her girlfriends. They would have loved to have been taken to the dance, to show off their dresses, to see and be seen.
At 6 p.m. on the night of the boycotted dance, about a dozen of these girls and their dates gathered in one boy's backyard so a mob of parents could photograph them. I found it dispiriting. My heart went out to those girls -- all dressed up with no place to go. Couldn't we, as parents, have demanded that the boys take our daughters to the dance? Why did we stand there, clicking our digital cameras, saying nothing?
I live in suburban Detroit, but this phenomenon is playing out elsewhere in the country, too -- a telling example of the indifference with which young people today view dating, chivalry and romance.
Studies, of course, show more young people skipping romantic relationships in favor of "hooking up." As teens socialize in packs, forgo one-on-one dating and trade sex nonchalantly, it is no stretch to find that boys are asking girls to homecoming and not bothering to take them there. But with so many young people ignoring once-sacrosanct dating rites, how can we respond?
(Excerpt) Read more at online.wsj.com ...
It's true.
In fact, my daughter's high school has a series of dances that begins in the freshman year. It's sponsored by the parent association and a couple of local clubs. They have an etiquette and dance coaching session ahead of time, separate ones for boys and girls.
By the time the senior prom rolls around, the kids are quite confident that they will know what to do, and they really enjoy it. They have a sit down dinner, a dance, and a VERY early breakfast before they all roll home to bed.
Parents these days do everything they can to retard their boys from growing up.
New York Times 2004:
San Francisco Chronicle 2007:
Young men are no longer evolving to be men until they are in their late 20s ( if they are lucky). They stay boys much , much longer, refuse individual responsibility or structure, and think they have an inate wisdom which they must exercise in order to cope.
They have no wisdom, and young ladies will simply evolve to dating much older young men than they are.So do not be surprised to see many more sixteen year old girls wanting to date 24 year old men. Its sure to happen. And unfortunately they are right.
Parents these days do everything they can to retard their boys from growing up.
I have visited some US college campuses recently and it seems to also be a victim of political correctness. Girls and boys dressing up nicely and showing a little class--gone. It all looks so trampy and low class and casual and non commital these days. I watched college (male) freshmen just let heavy doors at book store simply slam close on the face of women behind them coming in--not thought to being a real man. I would say, not only romance, but gentlemanly manners and chivalry seem long dead at these places.
It would take a cultural revolution in this country lasting several decades to repair the damage caused by the feminist movement and the sexual revolution that resulted in making it easier for men to use women and left women and children holding the bag.
It would take a revolution back to the principles and common belief system that existed in America up until the 1960s, and it would take everyone in the country determined to reverse course and change the way they raise their children.
It ain't gonna happen.
Democrats would respond by giving them condoms.
Well, the boys have taken their cues from the girls. You don't act like a lady, you don't get treated like one. Have no expectations and the boys will accommodate you.
The young men of 50 years ago had the same hormones, the same testosterone, the same desires......and yet they bought the corsages and opened the doors for their dates, and walked them to their front doors. Why don't they do that anymore?
Because they know they don't have to, and they'll still get laid.
I would just bag the whole thing myself.
My dad would have politely but firmly told the boy to go away and then driven me to the dance where I would have bought my own ticket and had a good time.
I would also make sure that every person in the school knew that this jerk may talk big but it was just talk.
By the parents of the girls letting the boys get away with that behavior and the parents of the boys tactically approving of it they are saying that it is ok for the boys to lie. They are saying that the girls not worthy of being consulted on what they wanted.
Not good lessons for them to be learning at that age.
And no, from what I have heard, this is not the way it works these days. This is an exception rather then the rule.
...and yet they bought the corsages and opened the doors for their dates, and walked them to their front doors. Why don't they do that anymore?
Hey, I do all of that!
Of course I'm about 40 years old...
Bunch of no-talent wannabe playas with no-talent wannabe parents. These gals should have dumped them from word "go."
These young men simply were not raised properly....and their parents should'nt be blaming anyone else for it...
The biggest problem is that most of these young men don't have models of correct behavior. How can they learn if they're not taught?
Good Lord, I think of my father and mother, growing up in the Depression, who had lots of friends who liked to sing, dance, play musical instruments, go to movies, ---oh, take walks, even. Knew how to be friends, how to date and how to court ---Knew how to have a good time---
I'm rambling because I don't quite know what to say. This hang out, hook up thing isn't fun or liberated or anything. It's just depressing. Don't you think so?
Why spend good money and time to go to a dance organized by mindless, domineering, timeserving government drones? Instead, you and your friends could go to the type of place, like a good restaurant or movie theatre, or even a private dance hall, that will cater to you and that is nice enough to actually attract people who have choices.
Seems like a simple choice to me. Just because some school board can maintain the Potemkin Village appearance of a fun time does not mean that children should want to be part of that deception.
This sounds wonderful. What kind of high school is this?
LOL!We lovingly refer to her as "the wife" :).
I'd guess that at least one if not more of those boys aren't allowed to go to homecoming for discipline or academic reasons and that's why it all of a sudden isn't "cool" to go.
Tough break for those girls that swoon over bad boys.
Not with my daughter, you don't.
I'm sure its nothing new in parenting, but I'm not looking forward to my little girl getting to this age.
"Last month, a boy asked my 16-year-old daughter to his school's homecoming dance."
10 Rules For Dating My Daughter
Rule One:
If you pull into my driveway and honk you'd better be delivering a package, because you're sure not picking anything up.
Rule Two:
You do not touch my daughter in front of me. You may glance at her, so long as you do not peer at anything below her neck. If you cannot keep your eyes or hands off of my daughter's body, I will remove them.
Rule Three:
I am aware that it is considered fashionable for boys of your age to wear their trousers so loosely that they appear to be falling off their hips. Please don't take this as an insult, but you and all of your friends are complete idiots. Still, I want to be fair and open minded about this issue, so I propose his compromise: You may come to the door with your underwear showing and your pants ten sizes too big, and I will not object. However, in order to ensure that your clothes do not, in fact, come off during the course of your date with my daughter, I will take my electric nail gun and fasten your trousers securely in place to your waist.
Rule Four:
I'm sure you've been told that in today's world, sex without utilising a "barrier method" of some kind can kill you. Let me elaborate, when it comes to sex, I am the barrier, and I will kill you.
Rule Five:
It is usually understood that in order for us to get to know each other, we should talk about sports, politics, and other issues of the day. Please do not do this. The only information I require from you is an indication of when you expect to have my daughter safely back at my house, and the only word I need from you on this subject is "early."
Rule Six:
I have no doubt you are a popular fellow, with many opportunities to date other girls. This is fine with me as long as it is okay with my daughter. Otherwise, once you have gone out with my little girl, you will continue to date no one but her until she is finished with you. If you make her cry, I will make you cry.
Rule Seven:
As you stand in my front hallway, waiting for my daughter to appear, and more than an hour goes by, do not sigh and fidget. If you want to be on time for the movie, you should not be dating. My daughter is putting on her makeup, a process that can take longer than painting the Golden Gate Bridge. Instead of just standing there, why don't you do something useful, like changing the oil in my car?
Rule Eight:
The following places are not appropriate for a date with my daughter: Places where there are beds, sofas, or anything softer than a wooden stool. Places where there are no parents, policemen, or nuns within eyesight. Places where there is darkness. Places where there is dancing, holding hands, or happiness. Places where the ambient temperature is warm enough to induce my daughter to wear shorts, tank tops, midriff T-shirts, or anything other than overalls, a sweater, and a goose down parka - zipped up to her throat. Movies with a strong romantic or sexual theme are to be avoided; movies which features chain saws are okay. Hockey games are okay. Old folks homes are better.
Rule Nine:
Do not lie to me. I may appear to be a pot-bellied, balding, middle-aged, dim-witted has-been. But on issues relating to my daughter, I am the all-knowing, merciless god of your universe. If I ask you where you are going and with whom, you have one chance to tell me the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. I have a shotgun, a shovel, and five acres behind the house. Do not trifle with me.
Rule Ten:
Be afraid. Be very afraid. It takes very little for me to mistake the sound of your car in the driveway for a chopper coming in over a rice paddy near Hanoi. When my Agent Orange starts acting up, the voices in my head frequently tell me to clean the guns as I wait for you to bring my daughter home. As soon as you pull into the driveway you should exit your car with both hands in plain sight. Speak the perimeter password, announce in a clear voice that you have brought my daughter home safely and early, then return to your car - there is no need for you to come inside. The camouflaged face at the window is mine.
Stay on your guard and keep her away from the "bad boys".
I think you hit the nail on the head.
Even 35 years ago, I dated my future wife in this way. When my sons started dating, I instructed them, as did my wife, in how they should act.
One thing they learned the hard way was that I would brook no disrespect to their mother in my presence or out of my presence. They were talking to my wife, and no one disrespects her in any way.
I've have told them to marry a girl who is just like their mother, with her qualities. They tell me about the girls today, and I remind them not to sink to that level. The right girl is out there, and if she is not readily apparent yet, that is no excuse for you to be and act like an animal.
My daughter also has high standards. Our rule was—if a boy wants to takes you out, he meets me first. I want to meet him, talk with him, find out some things about him and set the time line for returning my daughter to my house. She is my daughter, not his plaything.
Dads, don't let society tell you that you can not set the ground rules. It's your job. Your daughters and sons secretly want you to. If you don't, then don't be disappointed when they rise to the level you set.
Then you are way too old to be taking girls to High School Homecoming dances!!
I don't think the young women are growing up any faster than the young men. Part of it seems to be that nothing in life seems to be permanent these days, whether it be jobs, careers, or relationships. I really think we have to blame both government and corporate America for not allowing even the best and brightest highly skilled jobs and careers to endure for more than few years. Yes, Globalism is affecting this, and it affects the children, trite as that may sound.
Politicians of both major parties often are often from second and third generation political families, who have never had real world jobs in their life. So the decisions they make often do not favor real world America. Illegal immigration is just one of those out of touch issues.
Another thing that amazes me is that many young women in their late teens and early twenties seem to no longer wear rings, at least not on their fingers! They used to wear one if not many rings on theit fingers to signify that they were in a more than short term relationship.
All your rules are great advice for every parent!
sex should be emotionless, without attachments, with the use of the female using birth control of course, because we wouldn't want to slow down our young men any with fatherhood....
society is going to get what it wants and its going to get it good and hard...
Because a half century of feminist propaganda disseminated by the eduKKKrats have told them that's the way they should behave.
And how can I help my two teenage boys ---
I don't know if you can help them, other than making very clear the consequences like STD's and how much it will cost them if they get somebody knocked up. There are simply too many girls around who put out without asking for anything in return. Guys have always been this way. It was the girls who said no. If the girls don't say no, the guys sure as hell aren't going to.
You are right - that does sound very depressing!
You wrote:
"But why is it true?"
Because many teenagers have been led to believe that the old ways are boring, outmoded, and require too much effort and emotional investment.
"And how can I help my two teenage boys -—"
Teach them the old ways. Seriously, teach them to dance (ballroom dance). They'll hate you now, but thank you later. If you have to, resort to outright bribery. It's worth it.
"Good Lord, I think of my father and mother, growing up in the Depression, who had lots of friends who liked to sing, dance, play musical instruments, go to movies, -—oh, take walks, even. Knew how to be friends, how to date and how to court -—Knew how to have a good time-—"
Great. Now throw away your TV and computer and buy a piano instead. Sing as a family. No, I'm not kidding. I remember Professor John Senior giving that advice years ago:
"First, negatively, smash the television set. The Catholic Church is not opposed to violence; only to unjust violence; so smash the television set. And, positively, put the time and money you now spend on such entertainment into a piano so that music is restored to your home, common, ordinary Christian music, much of which is very simple to play."
(Senior, Restoration of Christian Culture)
"I'm rambling because I don't quite know what to say. This hang out, hook up thing isn't fun or liberated or anything. It's just depressing. Don't you think so?"
Yep. I deal with it head on all the time. I know far too many teenagers in my town. They are wonderful kids in so many ways, but messed up too and so obviously tainted by this world.
That's part of it.
However, the blame is not entirely on the girls. We guys should treat all females with the same respect and dignity that would otherwise be accorded to our mothers and our sisters, irrespective of how the girls are acting. It's part of being a gentleman.
And most of the blame lies at the feet of parents who don't teach (by example) their children how to act as ladies and gentlemen.
Missing fathers.
I dunno, my daughter got taken to Homecoming dances and to the junior and senior proms, as well as annual JROTC balls at which the young gentlemen dressed in their fine uniforms. This was just a couple of years ago. We live near Washington DC.
Thank goodness this fad is starting to fade - especially among the skater kids. They are going for very snug pants. Even the white kids are going tighter. Only the ghetto kids and the wanna be's are wearing the super loose pants.
At least that's how it is in NoVa - things may be different in your corner of the world.
It is one thing if he invited her to a dressy occasion at another venue. But to invite her to a dance and then not take her to the dance is just plain wrong.
I have no problem with students not attending their high school's particular function. But to invite someone one place and then to renege, and especially without prior warning to the invitee, is just plain wrong.
Don't forget the infamous underwear checking that started a couple of years ago.
Why indeed?
Wasn't there even ONE father there, who could look a boy in the eye and simply say "you ARE taking my daughter to the dance, aren't you?"
If the boy didn't respect that coming from a father, he won't respect anyone.
Girls don't have to take that disrespect.
My girlfriend (she is 50) can't find a decent man. All they want is to "hook up" on the first date. None of them open doors, they drive up, wait in the car etc. All the things that an attentive father would have not allowed. You'd think at that age....but no....
I think he had a good time. He ended up going to someone's house afterwards with a group of kids, where they watched a movie ... and he made it home by his midnight curfew.
High school dances seem to be, as this man describes, mostly for girls to "see and be seen"; to show off for their friends. If a boy doesn't have, and doesn't want, a girlfriend, why should he volunteer to be "arm candy" for some girl who will barely give him the time of day on Monday morning? (Yes, I know, the boys supposedly asked the girls out. However, I know from my son's experience that a girl will sometimes pressure a boy to do that, and if he's not careful he'll get himself in a situation where it's impossible to turn her down without "losing face".)
Anyway, the solution for these girls is very simple: find other boys to date, and make their expectations clear.
I don't see much point in pushing high school kids to date anyway. It's not like they're really in the market for a spouse yet, so it can't lead to much good. If they want to date, that's different. But it really shouldn't be an expectation, IMO.
I heard that when reading Romeo and Juliet in school, kids find it funny that Juliet would kill herself over Romeo's tragic demise.
I guess they see it the way we would if someone killed himself over the death of his golfing buddy.
Rule Eleven: Nod and smile at Papa. What he does not know will not hurt him.
I only hold doors open for real ladies.
The rest can kiss my behind.
Rule Twelve: No amount of smiling or nodding will fix a positive pregnancy test.

Published on Jun 16, 2011 Editor's Pick To educate young people about the risks to their hearing from loud music, DDB Paris's campaign for INPES (National Institute for Prevention and Education) created a YouTube film based on 3D holophonic sound and featuring French pop star, Jenifer. Although it appeared to be a YouTube video of a real Jenifer concert, the film soon turned into a video game centering on Jenifer's kidnapping, inviting viewers to try and find the captured star. The holophonic sound allows the listener to perceive sounds as they are in reality, and to know whether they are coming from the left or the right, from in front or behind. The ultimate message is that by protecting your hearing, you can protect the music that you love. Rate this Ad You must be registered to rate the ad.

meant bucket. Although sometimes its a hole dug into the ground by a gofer, since he doesn't have the industry or imagination to dig one himself.
I don't think he's convincing anyone of anything, since he's demonstrated about as much credibility and discernment as an ostrich who frequently mistakes its own bum for the buck it normally has its head stuck into.
You missed the point I guess, which was the dejavu irony (to those of us who've already made the trip through this highly cyclical racket a time or two), of its predictability in producing the same old arguments time after time, posited each time as if they could be revelatory in the same ol' flux at various points in the supply/demand dynamic as it struggles to achieve its elusive equilibrium. So while never new, sorta comforting to hear again, much like watching old episodes of The Honeymooners, to use that analogy, which are classic, and so while producing no surprises, are still able to conjure up the same old laughs.
You might laugh yourself if you were to go back ten or even fifteen years on this thread and see how many times that very same logic, almost in those exact words, has been expressed.
Yet here we are.
Actually sis, I had a chance to buy a controlling interest in Solandra from the bummer administration who was happy to take the billion dollar loss. Cuz hey, it was only tax money.
But, knowing the democraps' faculty for pizzing away our money, I decided not to take the risk, and bought a quart of beer instead.
Which only goes to prove that fascist authoritarians often get the small stuff right while making a total #$%$ over tea kettlel bullox of the big picture.
While leftist authoritarians on the other hand? Pretty much bungle everything.
I dunno. The geopolitical analysts who each year unanimously predict trouble in the middle east have so far been able to maintain their perfect record.
Yeah, well, you might also say that since no two physical entities can simultaneously occupy the same space at the same time, that in the instance of that example the air (at least to the volume that it is displaced) is full of glass.
An equally relevant observation I think.
Well, you're certainly the one to judge alright.
The only situation where being stupid qualifies as an unassailable credential for expert testimony.
Only you need to look at more than a price chart I think. For one thing there was an element of optimism baked into the share price for a possible, even a presumed start at least to a 2016 recovery factored then that's all but missing now, as both analysts and the companies themselves (as expressed in their [the E&Ps and drillers] recent guidance where most efforts seem focused on defensive cost reduction... not a confidence inspiring thing for the short term) have all but written off next year it seems.
That is to say, the gloom factor is more evident now than it was then and what there is of enthusiasm for a brighter future seems to be all but wrung out these days here at that 17 level, which has become a surer place to short these days than anything.
Not to say that you can't be buying now like a mad fiend and not expect to harvest a sizable profit when the cycle swings back toward the apex of its orbit. Not saying that at all. Just that we may see things get a bit diceyer before that happens.
Hey, but that's juss me... so fill in the usual disclaimer.
Not quite so generally in fact.
Up 4% yesterday on low vol. for example.
I'm still counting it though.
Hey, might's well. The market sure does.
Yeah, been playing the options all year on those more or less predictable parameters (with both puts and calls at the front and back ends). Had to cover at a loss on occasions when those parameters shifted (nastily once or twice), but as the year draws to a close (even after a coupla really bad months there) am still comfortably on the win side of the ledger.
Not the wild speculator I once was and am thus happy with making a K or so a week. And as I look at the running tally I keep here on my desk, having cleared 1400 at yesterday's expiry, 1600 the week before, 3500 the week before that with another 1600 the week prior as examples, with bets currently out through Dec 11.
I wish they'd quit it. Those rising estimates are just inviting a miss.
A rational appeal to the good sense of any march hare is, well, not rational.
Kind of you to try, though.
I'd have more confidence if it were a sniffer *named* Spot.
Maybe on St Patrick's day.
Transocean Sedco Forex. With me it was Falcon of course.
Trouble with such gobbling is that the gobbled company's debts naturally get gobbled along with the edible parts. If the street perception is that the deal makes sense, is a good fit for what develops out of the deal with the usual elimination of redundancy argument accepted as mitigating those liabilities and a stronger company will likely emerge from it when industry fortunes change, that's fine. But if it's perceived that the timing is bad, the gobbling company may have made a bad deal i.e. paid too much or that the incurred liability is not sufficiently off-set and may create more danger to the bottom line in the context of a protracted negative environment, the initial street response may be (and often is, even though things may work out nicely over time and in the end) unfavorable to the gobbler.
Ahwoooooo, dem evil shorts again.
A particular and all too often cited boogeyman on this particular thread... in its current emotionally fraught credulous and less useful incar*nation.
In by gone days such mention was of "da bigboys" or "market specialists" as being the prime, ever lurking nefarious perps and applecart upsetting culprits.
Actually, the initial response to deals like that almost invariably results in the purchaser being being more likely hammered down for a while with, if anything, a bump up for the proposed purchasee before details are revealed and the deal is (if ever) progresses beyond rumor.
And anyway, if fundamentals are already baked in, and yet we know fundamentals change, how can they be discounted in advance and at the same time say they don't count?
Much like a cake going no further than the recipe stage cuz all that sugar flour and baking soda are already discounted, so bon appetit.
And btw, buy it and eat all yuh want cause I can personally guarantee you, it's very low cal.
And earnings of course.
Only why analysts are revising them upward right now is a mystery, which only sets up a miss at some point down the road. I mean, I could see them reevaluating their grim prediction for crude this year and adjusting their time frame predictions for a beginning recovery (currently all the way out to 2017), but these successive beats having spoiled us and maybe their getting a bit tired of being wrong all the time has something to do with it.

Hey folks,
I've installed wordpress no problem, and even updated the IIS (set to index.php) which has solved most of my problems. However, even after editing the iis and making index.php the primary, I still have problems with my posts and pages I create in wordpress. In wordpress, I'll make a page and like normal, it will give me the permalink the way I set it up, so for example http://www.mysite.com/post-name/ , however when I go to click on "view page" within wordpress, it says the page is not found.
The problem is corrected when I type in index.php. So, for example http://www.mysite.com/post-name/, I need to type in index.php manually to get http://www.mysite.com/index.php/post-name/ at which point it works perfectly, but obviously it's quite a pain to do this :P
Anyone have any ideas? It only seems to be on my posts and pages created in wordpress, because if I were to click home, it will know http://www.mysite.com/index.php, so the issue is only when clicking posts or pages I've created. Again, I've edited the iis making index.php the primary, but that didn't solve my problem for pages and posts?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The Civil War is raging and in a desperate effort to find more recruits, the Union begins a draft - a draft with a difference. The wealthy can pay $300 to be released from their obligation, but the poor must go and fight and die. In New York City, the recently arrived Irish are the hardest hit by the draft and during the long hot days of July the city explodes in a rash of arson, marches, attacks, and lynchings, with the immigrant Irish taking out their anger on the black inhabitants of the city.
Fourteen-year-old Claire, the daughter of an Irish mother and a black father, has never had to choose between the two sides of the family - she has never had reason to consider her own identity. When she learns that a friend of hers is in danger, she decides to go to her aid, but by venturing out on the streets, she puts her own life at risk.
Myers's use of the screenplay format allows his readers a birds-eye view of the four hot days in July when New York City burned, using multiple points of view from both sides of the conflict.

RIOT by Walter Dean Myers tells the story of the beginning of the Civil War, and the 1863 insurgency in New York City. President Lincoln had started a draft to gain more soldiers for the Union Army, but there was a clause in the law that allowed the wealthy to pay a three-hundred dollar fee and hire someone else to go to war in their place. In New York City, tempers exploded into a vicious race riot. Claire is the daughter of a mixed family. Her mother is Irish and her father is black. She has been secure in her identity, but now everything is different. Black Americans are being murdered and beaten, and even a foundling home is looted and burned as the uprising turns into one of the worst race riots in American history. The streets and Claire's neighborhood are no longer safe. And then the soldiers that are called back from Gettysburg to settle the dispute are equally brutal. Claire is considered all black by people she considered friends and they are turning against her for that reason. She begins to question her identity. Great characters and a fast-moving plot kept me glued to the pages. Myers has written this story in the form of a screenplay in an untraditional book, with an unblinking look at racial relations during that time period. It gave an immediacy to the action that most novel forms would not have been able to achieve. It is a very entertaining story, and I painlessly learned a lesson in American history.

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. Let's start with the deplorable office. Dirty, outdated, torn up couches, stained carpets, not kidding it is gross. It is shared with an eye doctor god knows what his story is. Staff has not idea what is going on, one was sleeping on the couch and the rest complaining that the doctor was off the wall to us. Went on two separate occasions with appointments. Waited 3 hours first time then left. Second time waited 2 hours for a sonogram. Never saw doctor. He dresses with shirt hanging out, overweight, just disheveled. I won;t even get into the other patients we saw waiting there many of whom left after a 2-3 hour wait. NYU Birthing center office is right next to his. Eight great doctors, professional staff, clean, A go there instead. Alan Berger should be ashamed to even offer medical services with old outdated equipment and so on. He needs to clean up his act. If you think this review is over top I urge you to go check it out it is like an episode of cops. At the very least it will be an eye opener.
Dr. Berger delivered my son 3 years ago. I'd switched to him from another ob/gyn practice very late into my pregnancy because I was very uncomfortable and unhappy with the care I was receiving there. Dr. Berger immediately put me at ease, and I was completely comfortable with the care I received from his staff and his office.
Dr Berger is an excellent dr with an excellent personality - the new offices are very nice & the staff is also very nice & friendly I highly recommend him
Impossible to reach this doctor because his answering service won't take messages on his behalf. This is the second time this has happened. He is a nice doctor, but trying to leave him a message is impossible.
I've been going to Dr. Berger since he started practicing, he has delivered both of my children and I can't recommend him highly enough. He's knowledgeable with a great bedside manner.
I love Dr. Berger, I know longer use him cause I moved upstate but he delivered both my daughters and him and his brother did my tubal ligation. He is an awesome Dr and I recommend him to everybody I know.
Dr. Alan Berger is one of the best OB GYN's in NYC and has a great bedside manner, excellent clinical skills and is well respected at NYU. His office is very busy and sometimes doesn't follow up on phone calls. I find that that is such a shame for such a great doctor.
Amazing, caring & extremely knowledgeable...

or just the start?
Well, we are up about 20% since the downgrade.
Nuff Said.
OK, I'm upgrading BD to a strong buy here.
nut on every corner but did you know.Ownership Grade: F• Two or more executives, directors or major shareholders sold a large number of shares recently. Very negative • Shares are being heavily sold by financial institutions. Neutral for a large company like BDX Technical Grade: F• The StockScouter measure of relative price change and consistency is very low. Very negative • Previous day's closing price for BDX was slightly below its 50-day moving average. Negative Fundamental Grade: C• The most recent quarterly earnings report was approximately equal to or higher than analysts' consensus forecast, but not to a degree that is predictive of future returns. Neutral • Earnings growth in the past year is holding steady compared to earnings growth in the past three years. Neutral • One or more analysts has modestly decreased quarterly earnings estimates for BDX. Negative
Its always surprising to me how an analyst can rank a high-quality stock like BDX a strong buy at $80+ and then go to neutral when its at $68! Maybe when it climbs back to $80 he can upgrade to a strong buy again! The valuation on BDX is compelling and the fundamentals are strong. Sooner or later BDX will see another good run North. I rank XOM and BDX as probably two of the most undervalued quality stocks out there.
He can now get a CNBC job on "fast money" and front run! I'll keep buying the pull backs

Awesome gel with all the goodness of aloe veraThis gel is simply too good. I got it yesterday and after two days of application, I am impressed. My skin feels so fresh and healthy all day long. I have the worst type of skin i.e. combination skin which is really hard to maintain and harder to find a product suitable for it. This gel doesn't allow my t-zone to become oily and at the same time doesn't dry out my cheeks either. I kept touching my skin today. It felt so supple and smooth. All this at such at such a low price. *happy*

Genuine productI'm not a beauty products guy but I got this aloe vera for a different reason. I have no qualms in saying it aptly fulfills the cause. Worth the the price. Couldn't get a better one in less than a pound. Go for it, thumbs up

Nice gel :)It works well, but not good during winters for dry skin. I mixed it up with Jojoba, Avocado and Primrose carrier oils and it works perfect for my super dry/sensitive skin even in winters! So I really Love it! :)

Saturday is a big political day in Colorado Springs. Preparations are underway for the Colorado State Democratic Assembly and Convention, which opens Saturday at the World Arena.
Around 10,000 state delegates and elected officials are expected. Issues among the political party will be discussed and delegates will be narrowed down. Only a handful of the 10,000 or so delegates will go to the National Convention in Denver.
Lt. Skip Arms with the Colorado Springs Police Department says they've been planning for Saturday's event for several months and security measures will be in place.
Fewer than 100 protesters are expected, but officials say there will be two designated free speech zones in the World Arena parking lot. The hope is that there will be no trouble but police say they are prepared.
Gates into the World Arena open at 6 a.m. Doors open at 7 a.m.
Drivers are encouraged to car pool and get there early.
Those without tickets or credentials won't be allowed in.
Delegates can still get credentials and tickets on Saturday at the Hampton Inn from 7 a.m. to 10 a.m.
The Colorado Republican convention will be held later in May in Broomfield.

The authors consider migration based synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging of surface or shallowly buried objects using both down-looking and forward-looking ground penetrating radar (GPR). The well known migration approaches devised to image the interior of the Earth are based on wave equations and have been widely and successfully used in seismic signal processing for oil exploration for decades. They have the potential to image underground objects buried in complicated propagation media. Compared to ray-tracing based SAR imaging methods, migration based SAR imaging approaches are more suited to imaging underground objects owing to their simple and direct treatment of oblique incidence at the air-ground interface and propagation velocity variation in the soil. The authors apply the phase-shift migration approach to both constant-offset and common-shot experimental data collected by PSI GPR systems. They address the spatial aliasing problems related to the application of migration to the GPR data and the spatial zero-padding approach to circumvent the problem successfully.

bellbell63 this is one of his aliases on the AAC board. They will use small quanity sacrifices (usually around 100 shares)they sell at bid or in fractions just above it. They will not let the stocks climb upward. It's 100% illegal manipulation, yet the SEC won't do anything about it. Meanwhile they go from stock to stock wrecking their prices. Alot of retail investors like myself have lost a bunch of money because of their illegal scams. Thieves like this are better off dead. There's no justice here.

The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (Metro) transit police department arrested Raymond A. Gray Jr., on Tuesday, for making multiple bomb threats to the Metro system.
Gray was charged by a Federal grand jury with five counts of willfully making a threat/maliciously conveying false information using fire and explosives, and could receive up to 10 years in prison. The charges cover bomb threat calls from five stations in Washington, D.C., between January and July.
The Metro Transit Police Department's (MTPD) criminal investigation division is continuing to investigate Gray and believes that he has made multiple bomb threat calls from Metrorail stations in Washington, D.C., Prince George's County and Montgomery County, Md. Gray may face additional counts to the charges he currently faces.
MTPD detectives worked with the FBI Joint Terrorism Taskforce, Department of Homeland Security, United States Secret Service, Metropolitan Police Department Intelligence Operations Command Center/Fusion Center and the United States Attorney's Office.
"It was a tremendous effort on the part of several law enforcement agencies that resulted in these charges," said Michael A. Taborn, chief of the MTPD. "If someone makes threats of this nature, we take it seriously and track them down."
The grants, which will be selected by the FRA and awarded and administered by the FTA, will help commuter railroads implement PTC, which prevents accidents and saves lives.
The project, which starts next week, will utilize Hyperloop Transportation Technologies crowdsourcing and community collaboration, while implementations will be financed by Deutsche Bahn.
A group argues that the flawed data suggested the move would not have an overly burdensome effect on low-income and minority riders and that it should have taken steps to curb those impacts before ending the service in March.
During the investigation, it was determined that the man was laying on his back in the middle of the inbound side of a track on the south side, when a northbound train came down the track because the system was running on a single track.
Will emphasize beautiful travel photography and long-form journalism to cast itself as an upscale brand and replace its current magazine, "Arrive," which is more focused on celebrities, what's-on content and regional destinations.

So you got a little (over) excited at last night's karaoke bash and belted out Fun's hit tune "We Are Young" again and again, late into the night. Come morning, you're neither looking so young nor feeling so fun. Thankfully, this brightening, botanical-packed moisturizer deflates puffiness and boosts hydration for an instant pick-me-up.
I think this product has been hyped up too much. Instead of an energy boosting moisturizer it's more like a tinted moisturizer. It felt great when I first put it on but a few hours later my face was very shiny! I usually don't have an issue with shine. Overall the sample size was very small and I was not impressed, next!2
I was getting ready for a chic day party after a long Friday night out, I looked tired and my skin was blotchy. Once I finished trying out the sample pack in my Birchbox, I looked fresh and ready to go! Didn't even need to use concealer! I don't usually rave about moisturizers but I highly recommend.5
Unfortunately the sample size in my birch box was only large enough for one trial run and was unable to really see if I'd have any adverse allergic reactions to the product. Especially when testing face products, I want a sample size that allows me to really test the product as if it were part of my daily personal regimen.4

I'm looking for a way to control the default Android media player from my own service. I'm NOT interested in playing media from my service or activity; I want to control the existing application, which consists of an activity (
MediaPlaybackActivity.java) and more importantly a service (
MediaPlaybackService.java) located in
packages/apps/Music/src/com/android/music/. Ideally, I would like a solution that is independent of the version of Android.
I have figured out how to do pause/play/stop/next/previous operations using Intents. I can intercept track change events using a broadcast receiver. I can also get a list of playlists and the contents of each playlist. What I would like to be able to do is instruct the
MediaPlaybackService to play a specific file/song. Again, I don't want to play this song in my application; I want the Android default media player to play it.
I have tried two approaches so far:
I imported the IMediaPlaybackService.aidl file from
packages/apps/Music/src/com/android/musicinto my own application, and used this to bind to the
MediaPlaybackService. On Froyo, this works great; I can pass a path to the openFile method, and the service will play the file. However, on Gingerbread, I get an error:
Permission Denial: Accessing service ComponentInfo{com.google.android.music/com.android.music.MediaPlaybackService} from pid=17721, uid=10058 requires null. Finding a workaround to this error would be a good temporary solution, but it's not future-proof. This service may well change again in future versions of Android.
Starting the media player via an ACTION_VIEW Intent. This also works; however, as expected, the media player UI is brought to the front, which is not ideal.
Intent intent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW); intent.setDataAndType(someUri, "audio/mp3"); startActivity(intent);
Is there any other way to accomplish this? Is there an Intent I missed that would instruct the media player to play a specific song? Or alternatively, is there away to start an activity in the background, or to start an activity and immediately switch back to the previous one?
