This page contains the list of posts written by a given author. Each post has some categories (one or several separated by commas) below it.
I want the following: if I click on one of those categories, the next page will contain not all the posts from that category (not .../category/category1/), but all the posts from that category written by that author (something like .../author/authorname/category1/).

I never really understood it when you said this was repetitive in it's early stages. From day one, it seemed like it was fine. Maybe back then it needed better transitioning, but you fixed it in here, I'm sure. Fantastic work, as always.
Thank you. :) I still think it's raw as fuck, but you know, it was like kicking a skeleton out of my own closet for me. I just wanted to let it go and release it. It had potential. Perhaps I could have done much better, but I don't care. I now move forward for the better. Thanks again, my friend.

Nice song! The meaning in it's well and all good.

The Arizona Republic recently published an excellent editorial titled "San Diego's lesson for us". The editorial focused on the importance of our relationship with Mexico to Arizona's economy and future growth. It pointed out that "Mexico is Arizona's top trading partner" and that "Mexican shoppers/tourists pump billions annually into our economy."
It also correctly stated that the "Mariposa Port of Entry in Nogales is one of the nation's busiest for fresh produce" and that "Arizona won't fully benefit from the ongoing expansion of the Mariposa Port of Entry unless enough agents are assigned to staff the new lanes of traffic."
However, the editorial was wrong when it asked, "But really. When was the last time you heard state elected officials in Arizona talk about the border as an economic engine?"
As members of the business community in Nogales, we hear state elected officials talk about the border as an economic engine frequently -- and more often than ever before.
During the 2012 Arizona legislative session, state Sen. Gail Griffin and 34 state legislators from both sides of the aisle introduced a resolution calling for increased Customs Field Office personnel at the Arizona ports of entry in Nogales, Douglas and Yuma. It passed the Senate by a 28-1 vote and the House 48-9.
In September, Sen. Steve Pierce led a delegation of Nogales business leaders to Washington D.C., to meet with members of the Arizona congressional delegation. The purpose was to emphasize the importance of trade with Mexico and to educate members about the need for sufficient personnel at the Ports of Entry.
They also requested support from the delegation in our trade dispute over fresh tomatoes with Florida. The delegation met with U.S. Sens. Jon Kyl and John McCain, U.S. Reps. Jeff Flake, Ben Quayle, Trent Franks, Paul Gosar, David Schweikert and Raul Grijalva, as well as senior staff for U.S. Reps. Ed Pastor and Ron Barber.
Letters from members of the delegation were sent to the U.S. Department of Commerce in support of Arizona's position on the fresh tomato issue in recognition of the importance of trade with Mexico.
Gov. Jan Brewer and members of her administration spoke in favor of the Arizona position on the tomato issue as well.
On Nov. 26, the Fresh Produce Association of the Americas hosted Arizona legislators and other political officials at the Arizona Border Economic Summit. Approximately 30 legislators, led by House Speaker Andy Tobin, attended, along with Secretary of State Ken Bennett and State Treasurer Doug Ducey. The summit focused on the importance of trade with Mexico. Sens. Steve Pierce and Linda Lopez opened the summit and spoke about the border as an economic engine.
As reported in the Arizona Capitol Times, Senator Pierce made the following statement:
"I believe it's imperative that we work closer with Mexico than we have been, and I'm grateful for everybody's presence here today because it shows that there's an interest in that and that we are trying to go in a different direction, a new direction in our relationship with Mexico. Mexico is one of my highest priorities, increasing our trade down there."
This month, Rep. Karen Fann, who chairs the House Transportation committee, Sen. Rich Crandall, who chairs the Senate Transportation Committee, and Sen. Linda Lopez wrote letters to the state Board of Transportation encouraging them to complete Interstate 19 to the Mariposa Port of Entry to facilitate trade with Mexico.
These state elected officials are talking about the border as an economic engine and helping to move our state forward in our relationship with Mexico. We recognize and applaud their efforts.
The Republic is correct that more needs to be done. There is a need for true alignment from Arizona on how to complete this. The state's Transportation and Trade Corridor Alliance is working on a project that will reveal a roadmap.
From our standpoint, the needs can be boiled down to infrastructure, economic development and public support for these issues. In order to pull increased commerce through the Mariposa Port of Entry, there needs to be a better way to move goods and people. The existing roadway, State Route 189, needs an extreme makeover, not only for efficiency but also for public safety, considering that truck traffic may grow from 1,600 vehicles to 4,000 vehicles a day.
Arizona politicians are starting to get the picture. Getting their voices into alignment is the key to the future, not only for the border but also for the businesses in Tucson and Phoenix that benefit from Mexican trade and travel.
Lance Jungmeyer is president of the Fresh Produce Association of the Americas. Bruce Bracker chairs the Greater Nogales and Santa Cruz County Port Authority.

A super typhoon has slammed into China, killing one person,
as the government ordered an all-out effort to prevent loss
of life from a storm that has already killed at least 64
people in the Philippines.
Typhoon Rammasun, with winds of up to 180kmh, made landfall
at Wenchang city on south China's island province of Hainan
on Friday afternoon (local time), the National Meteorological
Center said on its website.
The typhoon, which is shaping up to be the strongest to hit
Hainan in more than 40 years, will bring heavy rain
throughout the weekend before moving southwest and weakening
on Monday, the Xinhua state news agency said.
By mid-evening on Friday, the storm had made landfall in
Guangdong province on the mainland. It is likely to hit the
southwestern Guangxi region late on Friday.
Waves could reach up to 13m. high in northern parts of the
South China Sea and residents are being warned away from
coastal areas, Xinhua said.
The Hainan government said it had ordered fishermen back to
port while all airports, train stations and ports had been
State media said access to all scenic spots on the island,
which styles itself as China's answer to Hawaii, had been
closed, and more than 70,000 people evacuated.
Premier Li Keqiang said people's lives must come first in the
severe situation, the Hainan government said.
"Prevent any accidents that may be caused (by the typhoon)
and reduce disaster losses as much as possible," it cited Li
as saying.
Typhoons are common at this time of year in the South China
Sea, picking up strength from the warm waters and dissipating
over land.
Flooding across a large swathe of southern China in the past
week has already killed at least 34 people.

Microsoft fires Fast Search CEO on suspicion of fraud
A lot of things are happening in Norway these days. Last week Ask.com used Google to promote pirate websites, the week before it was Google itself who decided to leave Norway.
When Google decided to leave Trondheim that meant there might be opportunities for Microsoft to fill the gap and get the right people working for them. But first they have to get rid of their own so it appears. Pandia announced Microsoft were firing John Lervik, CEO of Fast Search & Transfer "due to shady accounting practices."
Fast Search & transfer was bought by Microsoft in 2008 for almost a billion Euros. The search technology of the Norwegians is used by over 2600 companies.
Fast Search was being investigated by the police since 2008. That was even before Microsoft bought the company. In October the Norwegian National Authority for Investigation and Prosecution of Economic and Environmental Crime first looked into the books of Fast Search. Now Microsoft itself is looking trough the books on suspicion of fraud.
CEO John Lervik was asked to leave the company considering the police investigation and the possible bad publicity. He is being replaced by Fast technology boss Bjørn Olstad. Lervik himself claims in a Norwegian newspaper he left "out of concern for his family" because of his extensive traveling.

Definition of strident in English:

More example sentences
- I tried to sleep on the hour-long ride, but the harsh, strident sound became louder and the long menacing finger pointed angrily.
- The only real flaw comes from the age and technical limitations of the time, which results in a somewhat harsh and strident sound on occasion.
- Its raw strident sound was one of the first to make use of the rhythms of jazz.
harsh, raucous, rough, grating, rasping, jarring, loud, shrill, screeching, piercing, ear-piercing
1.1Presenting a point of view, especially a controversial one, in an excessively and unpleasantly forceful way: public pronouncements on the crisis became less strident
More example sentences
- He likes to hold the floor and has strident views on just about everything.
- Such strident views worry me, but I leave the politics of England to those here.
- The duo have a lot in common and a fresh face fronting the most successful airline in Europe would present a less strident visage to the EU and the general public.
1.2 Phonetics another term for sibilant.
Example sentences
- Strident vowels are fairly common in Khoisan languages, where they contrast with simple pharyngealized vowels.
- The greatest degree of pharyngealisation is found in the strident vowels of the Khoisan languages.
- Example sentences
- Yet I must confess to feeling a little jaded with the constant stridency and intellectual conceit of many of the contributions published, however much I agreed with the sentiment.
- Given its stridency of tone, it would be disingenuous to claim that it merely represented a divergent view; it is anything but dispassionately presented.
- Their stridency resulted in the general 'outing' of the worst kind of communal prejudices from even the respectable middle class.
Mid 17th century: from Latin strident- 'creaking', from the verb stridere.
This is from Latin stridere 'to creak'.

Hey guys, need your help. As I mentioned before I'm returning from a long hiatus, but I'm ready to contribute. I read many posts discussing the plain registration email, and I figured to enhance it.
I've created the administration page (which you can see here.
I've run into a snag though, I can't figure out how to use wp_mail to send html formatted emails. This is the last piece in the puzzle and I'll be happy to release the plugin into the wild.
Can anyone help?

When Do Stop Motion Films Simply Become Films?
We just stumbled upon this impressive stop motion film about a girl who misses her train in Milan and has to wait overnight. While the film itself is quite beautiful, it made us wonder, when do stop motion films simply become films?
This particular project is less than seven minutes long and uses over 4,500 photos. Imagine what a basic little point and shoot will be able to do in just a couple more years?

Los Angeles Angels
When you go out and sign CJ Wilson and Albert Pujols during the offseason, you probably aren't going to have very many early picks in the draft. That was the case with the Angels this year as they didn't pick until #114 in the third round.
Top pick RJ Alvarez has premium arm strength that has worked exceptionally well in relief. He can dial it up to 97 mph at times and his hard slider has a tendency to play up in relief as well. Alvarez could be a quick-moving prospect that fits in the back of a big league bullpen by the end of 2013.
In the fourth and sixth rounds the Angels popped two college middle infielders with very different profiles. Second baseman Alex Yarbrough is an offensive-minded guy that can hit for a high average and could pick up some doubles as well. He is solid in the field but doesn't stand out.
Sixth rounder Eric Stamets out of Evansville is more of a defense-first player with the ability to stick at shortstop long term. He has great range and very good hands in the field and could probably defend at the upper levels of the minor leagues immediately. Stamets has some offensive questions but does offer 70-grade speed.
Two college pitchers that offer a little more intrigue than your typical collegiate arms are right-hander Mark Sappington and left-hander Austin Adams.
Sappington is a big-bodied guy that shows a good low-90s fastball but struggles to command the ball and mix in any successful secondary pitches. He could move to the bullpen if starting doesn't work out and his fastball could play up a touch more in that role.
Adams is another potential reliever but he is much more of an unknown despite three years on campus. Though he has flashed a fastball in the low-90s and a curveball with plus potential, his command and control very rough.
Though the Angels drafted several other modest relievers and underwhelming college players, there were some high-ceiling talents sprinkled in throughout the draft. Right-handed pitcher Reid Scoggins has big time velocity and closer potential.
Still unsigned in the 17th round, right-hander Yency Almonte has good bloodlines and a very projectable frame. If the Angels can convince him to sign, he has a chance to add to his average fastball and could be an intriguing arm to watch in a couple of years.
Oakland Athletics
The A's draft has the potential to be a monster one when looking back in a few years. With a system that has seen an infusion of talent over the last twelve months, they will be able to be patient with many of the youngsters they just picked, and this crop of kids could begin showing up on prospect lists over the next few years.
Though I remain unconvinced of first rounder Addison Russell's ability to stick at shortstop, he has enough potential with the bat to profile at less demanding defensive positions. Russell will need patience, but he could be an All-Star caliber player down the line.
The supplemental round could give the A's the future of their infield corners. Third baseman Daniel Robertson has a chance to be a .280-.290 hitter with a good line drive swing that produces plenty of doubles and could result in 15-20 home runs. First baseman Matt Olson is another good hitter with power potential that could fit in the middle of the order.
Bruce Maxwell may be a catcher in name but he could end up at first base must like Olson. He is an advanced hitter with a good feel for his offensive game. He has a chance to hit for average and power and could move quickly to the upper levels.
Right-handers Nolan Sanburn, Kris Hall and Dakota Bacus can all run their fastball up to or past 94 mph. Sanburn has the biggest heat, touching 97 in short bursts and he could be a high-leverage arm with more experience.
The A's also added a couple of under-sized outfielders with some potential in BJ Boyd and Brett Vertigan. Boyd is a major project but he has natural strength, some raw hitting ability and he flashes plus speed. Vertigan is a little faster than Boyd but lacks the strength and is more of a bottom-of-the-order hitter with a solid approach and good defense in center field.
Seattle Mariners
The Mariners got their guy with the number three overall pick, snapping up polished Florida catcher Mike Zunino without hesitation. Zunino offers power from both sides of the plate, above-average defensive potential and exceptional leadership ability. He can move quickly once signed and could reach the big leagues within two years.
Second rounder Joe DeCarlo required almost $500,000 over slot to sign but his excellent hitting ability and plus power potential make him an enticing prospect. DeCarlo will need some time to develop at third base, having moved there from shortstop in high school, but he has a chance to be a very good defender.
Third rounders Edwin Diaz and Tyler Pike are both very projectable prep arms. Diaz, a Puerto Rican native, has plenty of room to add strength and mature physically and he can already reach 92-93 mph with his fastball consistently.
Pike was bought out of his commitment to Florida State and while he doesn't have the extreme projection of Diaz, there are plenty of scouts that still believe he can add to his 87-88 mph fastball that touches 91. He has a very advanced feel for pitching and shows the potential for three average pitches with above-average command.
Fourth round pick Patrick Kivlehan is the ultimate boom or bust pick. An inexperienced baseball player, Kivlehan played college football and then played just one year of college baseball at Rutgers. He can run and has tons of strength that gives him plenty of power projection. Despite his inexperience, scouts in the Mid-Atlantic were very impressed with how quickly his hitting skills returned. There's work to be done here but Kivlehan has a chance to be a big time prospect.
Ninth round pick Jamodrick McGruder should be a fan favorite at every stop of the minor leagues. He is a fast player that can steal bases and make things happen at the top of the lineup. He's a solid, if unspectacular hitter with an excellent approach at the plate.
The Mariners added more speed with Mike Faulkner and Brock Hebert outside of the top ten rounds. Faulkner is a burner that has a lot of work to do to be a baseball player, but his speed is of the impact variety. If he can become a better hitter and defender, he could be interesting.
Virginia Commonwealth reliever Blake Hauser is a reliever that relies heavily on his plus slider. Some scouts I spoke to noted that he threw it more than 50% of the time in many outings. His fastball can flash at 92-93 mph with some life. If he pitches off his fastball more in pro ball, the slider could be even more of a weapon and he could have seventh or eighth inning potential.
Texas Rangers
If there's one thing the Rangers 2012 draft will be synonymous for, it is the addition of multiple premium athletes.
First rounder Lewis Brinson may be the best athlete in the entire 2012 draft and he is an absolute tool shed of a prospect. He is a plus runner with good bat speed and plenty of power potential. His speed should ultimately play in center field and his arm is another plus tool. The big question is whether Brinson will ever hit. If he does, he could be an absolute monster!
Second rounder Jamie Jarmon and Nick Williams are also premium athletes, and while neither has raw tools as loud as Brinson's both are extremely talented and extremely raw in their own right. Jarmon had a chance to play two sports at South Carolina before opting to sign with the Rangers.
Popped in the supplemental first round, Joey Gallo had some of the best power potential in the prep draft class. Whether it's on the mound or at the plate, Gallo's game is power. He has easy plus-plus power to all fields and can reach 94 mph off the mound.
Over the last few years the Rangers have shown a willingness to tackle developmental projects on the mound, with much success. Right-hander Colin Wiles is another pitcher that will need some work but has considerable upside in his 6-foot-4 frame. He is a good athlete that can already top out at 90 mph and most scouts think he could add several miles per hour to that in time. His slider and change-up both show promise as well.
Though the Rangers did save some money in the back half of the first ten rounds, much of that money has already been used in the upper rounds. That could leave 24th round pick Chase Mullins out of the mix and heading to Kentucky. An enormous 6-foot-9 left-handed pitcher, Mullins can work in the low-90s at times and leaves scouts wondering just how good he could be if everything comes together. Don't be surprised if the Rangers make a run at him, but it could be a fruitless effort in the end.

"This is my second time using tinyprints and I love their products. The set-up was easy, the design options are just beautiful and it is very hassle free. I did not think the photo came out very crisp but I also used a photo off my iphone and not something from a professional so that could have been part of the issue. Still I would recommend this company to friends or family."
"The invitations were absolutely beautiful. We received so many compliments. They were shipped extremely fast and the RSVP website has been a tremendous help. Thank You!!! I will definitely be using this site again for any future events."
"This is a beautiful First Communion card. The card stock is very nice. I chose the glossy finish at no additional charge and was very happy. It arrived quickly ( even before it was scheduled to arrive). I would definitely recommend Tiny Prints and this beautiful First Communion card."
"I purchased the Lacy Lattice card for our daughter's first communion. I had pre-ordered a sample, but I still wasn't sure if it would look as good when I put our own picture and added the pearl shimmer. The invitation turned out just how I imagined it. I mailed the invites this last week, and I have received SO many compliments. Tinyprints doubled checked the invite for possible errors, which I truly appreciated and mailed my order faster than I expected. This was my first order with Tinyprints, because of this great experience, I will do it again."
"My daughter love her invitations - it's simple , nice colors ( more peach then pink) and very beautiful ! It's perfect for communion ! The envelope needs extra stamp ."

I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
From an interview given to Ed Sherman posted on Chicago Business:
I can't stand it when I hear someone say they can't afford to go to a game. It might be hard to get tickets for a Yankees or Sox game, but there's no reason why they can't afford to go to another game. We want to get more fans in the park.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Does the Astros deal involve Cubs tickets?
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
baseball is a horrible investment and the ricketts are going to go broke and the cubs payroll with be $60m next year with ads on everything and exploding scoreboards and neifi perez.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Shut up and buy some tickets.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
People are crazy. I read an article somewhere online the other day, maybe Fangraphs, about whether Milton Bradley faced racist fans at Wrigley, and it mentioned other players with death threats and racist insults, etc.
I don't understand those fans. Soriano pisses me off a lot, but I never once have considered calling him a racist name. That has nothing to do with my dislike for some of his play. Or Koyie Hill, etc. Nor would I ever send someone a death threat.
It makes me wonder what percentage of the population is certifiably insane? Or just hate mongering assholes?
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Side note: USA Today (or the FBI file) got Santo's town of residence wrong, it wasn't Glenville, IL, it was Glenview (I dated a girl for a while that lived one street over from Santo). There is no Glenville, IL.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
there's no more excuse for factual sloppiness like that today. would've taken only 5 seconds on google to confirm something like that
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Somebody should remind him that the game where Banks hit HR #500 drew under 6,000 people.
I may actually make it back to Wrigley this year after a nearly four year absence - my last game there was 9/19/2007 when Junior Griffey hurt himself yet again in the outfield and mercifully missed the remainder of the season. I go to somewhere between 5-10 road games a year as well as 1-2 non-Cubs games, but Wrigley is too annoying for me to enjoy when the place park is full - cramped, full of Trevors and Trixies, and difficult to get home to the SW suburbs after a night game.
But if the secondary market is as weak as it was last September, when unfortunately a rash of work travel kept me from going, I'll probably go to some games this year.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
I may actually make it back to Wrigley this year after a nearly four year absence...
If you couldn't brush aside the "annoyances" to come to a gorgeous ballpark to even see a 96-win team that was fun to watch, do us a favor here in Chicago and stay away.
Maybe the Peoria Chiefs are better suited to you?
Annoyance-free and cheap.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Tom, is that you?
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
I love you too. Thanks for telling me how I should spend my money. Do you sit in the corner of the LF bleachers?
It is physically painful for me to sit in a seat at Wrigley if the stadium is full. If you are sitting in front of me, my knees will be on each side of your ear. And figure out how long it takes to get from Wrigley to any of the Metra stations out towards Westmont or Naperville at 10pm on a weeknight.
The fact is that I do enjoy watching the team play in ballparks such as Pittsburgh (which is a beautiful facility, almost as nice as Wrigley) and Milwaukee (where I can make fun of cheeseheads and not freeze to death in April). Lots of Cub fans do not make it to Wrigley for a variety of reasons.
But Tom Ricketts should just shut up about ticket prices.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Tom Ricketts should just shut up about ticket prices
He should do more than shut up about them. HE should LOWER them.
I think that may have to happen anyway for people to come back other than us STH's. And, no, I do not ever sit in the bleachers. It is a Frat Party section now in my opinion.
FWIW, the 1st row in almost every section at Wrigley has built-in space allowing for your legs, to put your feet on the railing, food, souveniers, etc. The bleachers family section also has extra-room.
Confucius Say: If you want to spend the big bucks, the Dugout Boxes as well as other Box areas also have extra room. With the team as shitty as it is right now, depending on the date, it is possible that no one will be sitting in front of you anyway - or you can move close by where a seat in-front is unoccupied.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
I'm confused. I can sympathize with the health problems and uncomfortable seats, but the seats are in the same locations whether there are people sitting in them or not. I think you just mis-worded your reasoning. It's probably a pain in the butt for a very tall person to have to constantly move for fans to pass through, etc., but as for any discomfort from the seats, it's going to be the same if you were the only person in the ballpark since the seats do not move.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Yes, but when the ballpark is full, the Trixies usually don't like it when their head is between my knees, unless they've had a LOT to drink.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Here's the problem, the place is over 100 years old!!!
When they built it the average man was the size of a hobbit.
Gut the gdamn place and re do it or move.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
say confucius - didn't you used to play for the bosox w/ pumpsie green? good field/no-hit middle infielder maybe?
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
No, I believe that you have me confused with Davey Rosello.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Actually, there has never been a MLB player named Confucius. I'm dismayed by that fact.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
marlon byrd has a 15 game hitting streak (and only 6 starts total without a hit all year)...but...
only 1 double and 1 HR out of 21 hits in those 15 games...his only HR so far.
where them doubles at byrd? c'mon...
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Speaking of terrible #3 hitters with the initials MB, Uncle Milty was released...
and he had 13 RBI's in 28 games. Marlon has 8 in 38.
Cubs WIN!!
Rob Neyer writes, "In the end, the Mariners probably "lost" the trade that got them Bradley, because at least Carlos Silva pitched effectively for three months last season with the Cubs."
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
that's like picking the best olympic sporting event and having the choice between the paralympics and the special olympics.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
byrd isn't hitting for power...he shouldn't be hitting 3rd.
that said, i don't got a problem with the guy. his D and range in CF are still good enough. his power is slumping, but very little else.
that said, if his power slumps all year that's a concern going into 2012. he's never going to walk and while he's not slow, he's not fast. he needs his doubles-power at the very least.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Sullivan has tonight's lineup:
Fukudome RF/Barney 2B/Castro SS/Ramirez 3B/Soriano LF/Byrd CF/Pena 1B/Hill C/Zambrano P
And Reds reliever Aroldis Chapman on the 15 day dl. And the Cubs are in the midst of a 10 straight night game streak, a team record.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
I hear tomorrow Quade will start Hill in CF to give Byrd a day off, while DeWitt starts at catcher :)
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
You can't play catcher in MLB unless you start playing the position around age 6.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Too lazy to check if its a RH or LF pitcher (... do the Reds have a LHSP pitcher?), but Dick Quade has managed to bat all five of his RH hitters in a row, and his four lefty "hitters" (in the case of Hill) in a row.
Now it's like he's actually thinking of ways to fuck his job up... well nevermind, this is the guy that brought us releasing Silva so Russell could start.
Jim Hendry, there's an unemployment line with you and your flunkies' names just waiting for you.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
It's a righty, Homer Bailey.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
This is one of those times where batting Z 7th wouldn't be the worst idea Quade could have had. Put the automatic out 8th, and Fukodome in the 9 spot.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
There's never a time to bat the guy with a .450 OBP 9th, unless you're playing on ColecoVision.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
That's true...of course, it's not April anymore...time for Fukudome to go in the tank.... .229/.341/.314 in May.....
Sheesh.....I will be glad to see him gone.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
hooray for the most empty .341 obp ever.....
you're probably right Rob....sigh.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
castro back in 3-hole cuz he had a good game in cincy last year?
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Your other options who are slugging over .400 are Barney and Soriano. Who do you want to hit third?
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Is there anything better than rich people yelling at poorer (than them) folks about not spending money? F#** that guy. I love Wrigley, but these guys only see the fans as walking cash cows. Can we get Mark Cuban to hijack the team? Give me an owner who is serious about building a consistent winning team.
BTW, myself and "Rick Reuschel" will be at the game tomorrow in Cincy. Supposed to be craptastic weather. If I see Marty Brennaman, I'll honk a loogie at him. Hope to see seem blues jerseys. Castellini hates when Cubs fans fill his Ballpark.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
confucius jackson is a great name! would love to have a confucius jackson baseball card...
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
hitting in front of zombie hill should get some good pitches to safety squeeze if he comes up w/RISP...
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Playing devil's advocate, Ricketts' comments could be taken as showing empathy for fans. Of course, he could show more empathy by lowering ticket prices, but come on.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
I don't know about redeeming...and yes, context...but I just didn't read it as harshly. He certainly didn't come off as entirely empathetic, certainly, but just tossing that notion out there.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Based on the context of the statement he seems to be talking about buying re-sale tickets for hot commodity games... he sadly has forgotten the context that the economy is not in great shape, his team sucks and he still charges the among the highest ticket prices in the game. You shouldn't be able to fly round trip from Chicago to LA for the price of four not very good tickets to a baseball game... not sure what he doesn't get about it. Does he think he was paying $16 face for bleacher tickets in 1988?
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
The Cubs are selling at 85.1% of capacity, 5th in MLB, fwiw.
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Yeah, but a large percentage of those tickets Ricketts only got to sell one time... how can he run a business like that?
Are the other four teams as woeful as the Cubs?
Re: I Am Tom Ricketts's Inner Snob
Ha. The worst team in the league is selling 97.8% of it's tickets in the coldest stadium in MLB.
Recent comments
Meanwhile, out West:
SF is 2-11 since the break, lead over LA is down to one game, and they are running out Cain and Peavy this weekend against the Nats. Challenging times by the Bay.
Thanks for the updates Phil. Too bad about Frazier.
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.

The Gang's All Here
I sat in a chair like a school teacher in an empty classroom.
But instead of students, it was my boys I waited for.
"It's ten minutes to two, where are they?"
I watched the door and the clock.
Then the door swung open and they began to walk through it.
I took attendance (mentally).
Jason is here.
Patrick is here.
Damien is here.
All eight of them are here.
I sighed. They all made it through the weekend without being arrested or shot.

It's your decision, period.
It's pretty much impossible to follow them to a tee.
Pick your head up (out of the toilet bowl)!
An ob-gyn weighs in on how this could've happened.
As these women can attest to, both are pretty mortifying.
It's a personal choice, not a rule.
A couple have used these pointers on their own after-baby bellies.
Prep for a healthy 9+ months.
Have a read and relax.
Could this be the solution to your infertility issues?
Just how likely is it to not make it to the hospital in time?

I need to adjust images to the screen size on the iPhone in portrait and landscape. The images are loaded dynamically and in different ratios.
I want to accomplish that the images have a maximal size inside the screen. The problem is that some of them need to have a width of 100% and others need to have a height of 100% depending on their ratio.
Previously I have done that with JavaScript and individually resized those images when they were loaded or the screen was rotated but I was hoping for a css only solution so my webApp won't so heavy in JavaScript.
Anybody know a solution?
Thank you in advance.

I have read most of this book and it has great ways to help with strong willed children. I have never been one to read books about raising children but I was at my wits in with my 4 year. She not a bad child but is very sassy. This book has topics about things to help you overcome issues. You can look up the topic and read about just that.
I borrowed this book from a friend and quickly decided I needed my own copy. I have three young boys and the advice I found was good and timely. My husband also read the book and likes the advice. Besides the advice we found helpful insights to why kids behave the way they do sometimes. Probably a better book for parents of younger kids. The method is simple, but you have to have a backcone to keep it going. It is the only way it will work.
I think this book was amazing!! It really helped me learn how to be a better mother! It's mainly about setting boundaries, which sometimes I had a hard time keeping, but this book really helped me see why and how I needed to set boundaries and discipline my kids! I would recommend this book to anyone that wants to be a better parent!
I bought the book after reading a copy from the library because it is a good book to have on the shelf. And for the parents that are serious about changing the behavior of their children, you will be referring to it often because there are steps that you need to follow/consider in order to be successful in implementing this approach to parenting. Overall it is a good book if you are willing to be persistent and consistent when the going gets tough. Expect to do some changing of your own in the process of changing your childrens' behavior.
This book has some really great ideas! Doesn't necessarily apply to all ages though. I found I couldn't apply some of these things to my almost 4 year old in the same way as you could a teenager. Overall, some great ideas!
My child is behaven alot better and the book help us to deal with issues alot better
Good book to give you a better understanding on how to deal with your kids.

U.S. Navy Fleet's Mideast Home Is Facing Rise in Sectarian Strife
MADINAT HAMAD, Bahrain -- On a recent evening, Issa al Jibb climbed the roof of his home and started hurling Molotov cocktails into the adjoining property of the Rawi clan. By the time Bahraini police shot him down with a rubber bullet, Mr. Jibb had managed to burn three cars and part of the building, and inflicted serious burns on two Rawi teenagers.
This was no ordinary feud among neighbors. Mr. Jibb, 46 years old, is a native of this small Persian Gulf kingdom. The Rawis are originally from Syria, were recruited along with thousands of other Arabs and Pakistanis to serve in Bahrain's security forces and eventually rewarded with Bahraini citizenship for their loyalty to the crown.
Hostility between these two communities is on the rise, with several other clashes, car torchings and beatings reported in recent months. "Bahrainis think that we just don't belong, that we're aliens to this area and to this state," says a Syrian-born army officer who lives nearby.
Once hailed for its democratic reforms, Bahrain -- a strategic island-state that serves as headquarters of the U.S. Navy Fifth Fleet -- is increasingly rocked by sectarian and ethnic strife. Though the majority of Bahrain's 530,000 citizens are Shiites, power remains in the hands of a Sunni royal family, the only such minority regime in the Arab world since the downfall of Saddam Hussein in Iraq. Suspecting its Shiite citizens of loyalty to nearby Iran, the island's former master, Bahrain's royal family has long relied on Sunni mercenaries from countries such as Syria, Jordan, Yemen and Pakistan to staff Bahrain's army, police and security service.
Earlier this decade, as Washington pushed for democratization in the region, Bahrain's King Hamad freed political prisoners and established an elected parliament with limited powers. However, opposition leaders and some independent analysts charge, a parallel program began at the same time, largely ignored by Western nations that depend on Bahrain's valuable naval facilities. The regime, they say, has sharply accelerated its policy of naturalizing Sunni mercenaries, aiming to inflate the size of the Sunni electorate -- and to defuse Iran's growing influence.
"There seems to be a clear political strategy to alter the country's demographic balance in order to counter the Shiite voting power," says Toby C. Jones, professor of Middle East studies at Rutgers University and a former Bahrain-based analyst at the International Crisis Group think tank. "This naturalization stuff is a time bomb."
Bahraini officials deny any such policy exists, and insist there is no discrimination against the country's Shiites. According to Bahrain's interior minister, Sheik Rashid bin Abdullah al Khalifa, only about 7,000 people were naturalized in the past five years. Opposition politicians, however, calculate the naturalization's true pace at some 10,000 people a year, based on voter registration statistics -- a big number in such a small country.
People picked for this naturalization "aren't just Sunnis," but religious fundamentalists "who share the hatred of the Shiites," asserts Hassan Mushaima, leader of Bahrain's Haq Shiite movement who was imprisoned for three months this year for his role in violent street protests.
Not just Bahraini Shiites oppose the naturalization. Initially, the island's Sunnis welcomed fellow Sunni newcomers, says Ebrahim Sharif Alsayed, secretary- general of the Waad secularist movement and a Sunni himself. "But today, most Sunnis are strongly against the naturalization," he says. "It's not about balancing the Shiites anymore -- it's about protecting the indigenous Sunni population from being invaded by foreigners."
Mr. Jibb, the Bahraini who threw Molotov cocktails into his neighbors' home in Madinat Hamad last month, is a Sunni, too. The conflict began in December, when Mr. Jibb witnessed the beating of a Bahraini neighbor by the Rawis and other naturalized Syrians, according to his sister Leila. "The Syrians, they're like a gang trying to control the whole area, bullying the whole street just to show who's the boss," she says.
A few days later, the Rawis attacked Mr. Jibb with a hammer blow on the head, prompting a hospitalization, she says. Members of the Rawi household, headed by retired Bahraini army sergeant Freih al Rawi, and comprising some 40 people, deny they instigated the clash. "We know; there's bad feeling for foreign people here," says one of Mr. Rawi's sons, an army officer.
The night of May 29, Ms. Jibb says, her brother -- who suffered psychiatric problems after the December hammer blow to the head -- found himself the target of taunts by the Rawis again, and simply "lost his mind," unleashing the volley of Molotov cocktails. Ms. Jibb has since fled her house, fearing revenge from the Syrian-born neighbors.
"How can it be?" she wondered indignantly. "I, a pure Bahraini lady, am now homeless in my own country!"
