Moose Skowron - 5 Time Champion
Moose Skowron - 5 Time Champion
Former Yankee great Bill "Moose" Skowron with his trademark "crew cut," looked more like a military Ranger type elite killer than a ball player for the New York Yankees. Yet he became one of only two players in the history of the game to hit three home runs in Game 7s of World Series. The Moose as he was affectionately called was a five-time World Series champion. He died yesterday of congestive heart failure at Northwest Community Hospital in Arlington Heights, Illinois. Skowron was 81. The Moose helped the Yankees win four titles in the 1950s and 1960s. Yogi Berra was one of the first former teammates to praise Skowron saying, "There weren't many better guys than Moose." Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig called him "an integral part of the wonderful Yankee teams of Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris and, he was a wonderful storyteller and an important link to a great era in baseball history." After baseball playing days the Moose went back to his home town of Chicago and went to work for the Chicago White Sox as a community relations man. White Sox owner Jerry Reinsdorf said, "While Moose may have become a star in New York with the Yankees he was a Chicagoan through and through. I certainly will miss his priceless stories about Casey Stengel, Roger Maris, Hank Bauer, and of course his good friend Mickey Mantle....my guess is that right now Mickey, Roger, Hank and Moose are enjoying a good laugh together."
Skowron played for the Yankees from 1954-1962. Then won a fifth title with LA after being dealt to the Dodgers for Stan Williams. In 14 major league season he had a .282 batting average, 211 home runs and 888 runs-batted-in. The Polish kid from the streets of Chicago was an 8 time ML All-Star. Skowron came up to the Yankees as an outfielder. Then he was moved to first base. The Moose was not a naturally graceful man and was once told by his manager he needed to take "dance" lessons to improve his footwork at first base. The manager was Casey Stengel who told Skowron, get on the phone to Arthur Murray. Skowron acquired his nickname, Moose, from childhood friends. His grandfather gave him haircuts, a resemblance to the Italian Dictator of the 1930s, Benito Mussolini, so his pals called him "Mussolini." By high school age it was shortened to "Moose."
Bill Skowron was beloved by Yankee fans. He seemed always to come thru in the clutch during World Series time. Like in 1956 when he hit a seventh-inning grand slam off Roger Craig in a 9-0 win over the Brooklyn Dodgers, and a three-run homer against Lew Burdette in the eight-inning of a 6-2 win over Milwaukee in 1958 sealing a victory, and another World Series title for the Yankees.
Hearing of his death, New York Yankee Managing General partner Hal Steinbrenner said,"Moose will always be remembered as being one of the key members of the Yankee dynasties in the 50's and early 60's. He was a winner in every sense of the word, and someone the Yankee family cared deeply for."
Being interviewed in 2006 by a Chicago Times reporter Skowron admitted that as an outfielder he "couldn't catch a fly ball," and was grateful to Stengel for moving him to first base. When the reporter asked if he took Casey's advice and called "Dance Class" master Arthur Murray for dance lesson's the Moose took the 5th.
William "Moose" Skowron, great teammate, great friend, great story-teller, great in the clutch. When asked how he met his second wife he replied, "She told me over the phone, meet me at the bowling alley and if you like what you see we'll go out - well, I did like what I saw and I guess she liked what she saw because we got married two years later...I found out later she thought I was "Moose Yasko," the hockey guy."
Moose Skowron - "5 time champion" also had a great sense of humor. He'll be missed.
Be respectful, keep it clean.

Timeout works fine, but like Jakamarra, I could not get the re-direct to work. I replaced site_url() with the site URL/page_id in quotes for redirect to a specific signout page, but it redirected to the base site URL and only when a click action occurred after timeout.
Some people may be very good at logging off after they have been working on their site but I am not one of those. It is easy to get distracted and everything can be left open for hours. I have set the timeout for one hour which suits me and the whole thing works just fine.
I tried to the redirect feature but this only happens when you click on the website it does not automatically change. Otherwise everything is perfect.
Does exactly what I needed.. Looked for ages for something like this.. Tried updating wp-login.php myself to timeout the cookies but couldn't get it to work..
Thanks very much and keep it up!

Guest Columnist
Last week in the North Carolina General Assembly, we passed the 2016 budget out of the House Appropriations Committee and out of the full House, we had official visitors from our county boards of commissioners, and I had visitors from home: Oak Island.
By Congressman David Rouzer
Every year on the last Monday in May, our nation pauses to pay tribute to all those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.
Memorial Day is a day to honor and memorialize our fallen heroes for their courageous fight for freedom, liberty and security. It is also a time to thank our veterans who have served as well as our men and women in uniform who are serving.
To the editor:
Thank you to The Brunswick Beacon, the town of Shallotte (police and services), the Brunswick County Sheriff's Office (and volunteers) and most importantly, the many volunteers who assisted Brunswick Family Assistance (BFA) in our food distribution program Thursday, May 12.
Thank you for your excellent coverage last week of the segment of the Sunset Beach Town Council meeting concerning Senate Bill 875, which proposes de-annexing portions of Sunset Beach including the east and west oceanfront ends of Sunset Beach island.
Of particular interest to me was the comment, "You push people into a corner, they're eventually going to strike back."
State Sen. Bill Rabon recently filed a Senate Bill 875, Town of Sunset Beach/Deannexation. The bill may come up for a vote as early as Tuesday, May 24.
This bill would "de-annex" three town sites within the town of Sunset Beach that are being developed or are proposed to be developed.
Rabon still has not explained what prompted him to take this action. The obvious impact will be a negative one from a tax standpoint on the citizens of Sunset Beach, including us.
In response to William N. Clemmons' letter published in last week's edition, I certainly respect his service to our nation and his right to his opinion.
I write to address his lack of understanding of Thomas McGrath's letter published May dealing with $19 trillion of U.S. debt, and a refusal on the part of our Congressman David Rouzer among 259 others to repudiate their now 30-year-old pledge to never raise taxes, even to fund the spending they appropriated, including war and veterans issues.
A state of emergency has been declared in Venezuela by President Nicolás Maduro. The crisis grows deeper and deeper.
Food is very scarce, while basic necessities and medicines are almost nonexistent. People wait in lines up to 12 hours for food and are still unable to get basics like milk or rice. Hospitals are low on medicines, cleaning supplies and even water and electricity. Patients are dying every day because doctors don't have the supplies to treat them. Many lie on the floor and in hallways waiting to be seen by a doctor.
Donald Trump engaged in casual folly last week on CNBC regarding reducing our $19 trillion debt. He responded as if America was an insolvent business. He said he would ask Treasury bond holders to accept reduced payments to cut the debt.
Congress has the power to tax the wealthy equal to what it appropriates or borrow new money at 1 percent interest to pay off current debt, provided it does not foolishly spend money and then refuse to tax or increase the debt limit.

Let's say you have some Java code as follows:
public class Base{
public void m(int x){
// code
and then a subclass Derived, which extends Base as follows:
public class Derived extends Base{
public void m(int x){ //this is overriding
// code
public void m(double x){ //this is overloading
// code
and then you have some declarations as follows:
Base b = new Base();
Base d = new Derived();
Derived e = new Derived();
b.m(5); //works
d.m(6); //works
d.m(7.0); //does not compile
e.m(8.0); //works
For the one that does not compile, I understand that you are passing in a double into Base's version of the m method, but what I do not understand is... what is the point of ever having a declaration like "Base b = new Derived();" ?
It seems like a good way to run into all kinds of casting problems, and if you want to use a Derived object, why not just go for a declaration like for "e"?
Also, I'm a bit confused as to the meaning of the word "type" as it is used in Java. The way I learned it earlier this summer was, every object has one class, which corresponds to the name of the class following "new" when you instantiate an object, but an object can have as many types as it wants. For example, "e" has type Base, Derived, (and Object ;) ) but its class is Derived. Is this correct?
Also, if Derived implemented an interface called CanDoMath (while still extending Base), is it correct to say that it has type "CanDoMath" as well as Base, Derived, and Object?

When it comes to car accidents of any nature, the aftermath can be a hard and difficult time for anyone involved. Whether it's a minor crash or a major crash, it's likely that the impact can have a major impact for those involved in the accident. Luckily though, you don't have to go through this alone. You can help deal with the aftermath of the accident by reading through this 'Guide to Getting Over a Car Accident Guide'.
I wrote this website after being involved in a car accident myself. It was fortunate that no one in the car accident incident suffered from any serious injuries. However, I noticed some of the people involved – including myself – had a hard time dealing with the aftermath of the incident. Instead of going about our separate ways afterwards, we all got together and talked about the different elements that were involved in getting over the accident.
The main things we needed to address after the accident was dealing with the insurance companies, overcoming any negative emotions associated with the event and always selling on our wrecked vehicles. I wrote this website to address these main issues in hope that it'll help overs deal with a car accident in the best way they can. It also won't hurt to read through this website even if you haven't been involved in an accident, as this can help you sufficiently prepare if an unfortunate accident ever were to happen.
Your first actions after an accident
If you have just been involved in a crash of any kind, your first protocol is to make sure that everyone involved in the accident is okay. It's important not to try and move anyone who is injured, as this can further damage their injuries. The only exception would be if there was a risk of the vehicle exploding. This is the sort of incident where knowing how to perform emergency CPR comes in handy!
If anyone is injured, it's important to call your local emergency services immediately. Stay with the injured until help arrives, and make sure other traffic is either halted or moves around the accident scene (until local police are on the scene to take care of this).
Once any injured people on the scene are seen to by emergency service providers, you can now start addressing other factors involved with a car accident.
Sorting removal of your wrecked car
If your car has been wrecked beyond repair, you'll need to arrange for it to be taken away from the scene. While some have an initial instinct to call a local towing company, there are other options available which won't incur any charges for you. For example, there are local car wreckers that will come and remove your car for free as well as pay you cash to buy it. Read more about this on the 'Selling Wrecked Car' page.
Hopefully, you'll already have car insurance – so buying a new vehicle won't cause a financial strain on you and your family.
Dealing with the emotional aftermath
It's a given that there will be negative emotions associated with the aftermath of being involved in a car accident. It's important to address and deal with these emotions so that they don't result in long-term stress and anxiety. If the accident was fatal, you may have to look at counselling sessions to overcome the grief. Read more about this on the 'Overcoming Emotions' page.

RENTON, Wash. (AP) - The Seattle Seahawks have lost backup tight end Anthony McCoy for possibly the entire 2013 season after he sustained a torn Achilles during an organized team activity earlier this week.
McCoy went limping off the field late in Monday's OTA that was open to the media. Trainers examined his ankle on the field before using a cart to take him into the team's practice facility. Coach Pete Carroll had limited information after practice ended and believed it was an ankle injury.
McCoy was entering his fourth season with the Seahawks. Last year, he had a career best 18 catches and three touchdowns.

In support of large-scale carbon capture, utilization and storage projects, a collaboration of five U.S. Department of Energy national laboratories has completed first-generation risk profiles that, for the first time, offer a means to predict the probability of complications that could arise from specific carbon dioxide storage sites.
A new, free online tool developed by a Department of Energy laboratory allows users to customize and analyze the environmental impact of various fuels before they are used to create power.
The role of fossil fuels in the global energy portfolio, reducing the environmental impacts of coal-based energy systems, and recent advances in clean coal technology are just some of the subjects that will be discussed at the 2012 International Pittsburgh Coal Conference to be held October 15-18 at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center in Pittsburgh, Pa.
Projects to research the nature and occurrence of deepwater and arctic gas hydrates and its potential for dramatically expanding U.S. energy supplies
The Energy Department today announced the selection of 14 new research projects across 11 states that will be a part of an expanding portfolio of projects designed to increase our understanding of methane hydrates' potential as a future energy supply.
Energy Department has agreed to lend 1 million barrels of sweet crude oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve's (SPR) Bayou Choctaw site in Louisiana.
The nation's large resource base of natural gas can be used for cost-effective power generation, with environmental burdens coming primarily from fuel combustion, not resource extraction, according to a new Department of Energy study.
Carbon dioxide injection has begun at the world's first fully integrated coal power and geologic storage project in southwest Alabama, with the goals of assessing integration of the technologies involved and laying the foundation for future use of CO2 for enhanced oil recovery.
The successful bench-scale test of a novel carbon dioxide capturing sorbent promises to further advance the process as a possible technological option for reducing CO2 emissions from coal-fired power plants.
A novel method to capture carbon dioxide from flue gas and produce biofuels has been formally launched in the second phase of a Department of Energy project at a nursery in Ohio.

SOURCE: Spiller, Elizabeth A. "'Searching for the Route of Inventions': Retracing the Renaissance Discovery Narrative in Gabriel García Márquez." CLIO 28, no. 4 (summer 1999): 375-98.
In the following essay, Spiller examines the "mythic and historical" aspects of One Hundred Years of Solitude, arguing that the novel "emerges out of a Renaissance genre which used myth to create what then became history while it also transformed existing history into a form of myth."
If, as Harold Bloom suggests, One Hundred Years of Solitude (1967) is a "supreme fiction," it achieves that status as it reformulates early modern narratives of self-discovery and dominion.1 García Márquez signals his intention of rewriting the great Renaissance narratives of discovery when he begins his 1982 Nobel Prize acceptance...

Me too, and the owner says no damage to the original wood on the doorframes :-(
Lady here as well, had to miss the Hoosier Hang but I'm still hoping to get back out there.
My 4 legged trail buddy is in a whole lot of pain, unable to walk on his own. I can't just leave him home alone. Sorry guys.
Is this information still correct? I've been going through this thread all morning and thought I saw a post that actually talked about directions in more detail but I can't find it now.
I'm thankful! I'll be coming in while the sun is out but this is my first wilderness hike alone.
I should be there Friday evening, around 6 or 7pm.
Nails worry me for my smaller dog, so I just pick her up and set her in, but her nails are kept pretty trim as well. The larger dog is very gentle, and they both only seem confident enough to use me...
Maybe my dogs are extra lazy? I've not been kicked yet, especially not by the bigger one (chow mix). He's too laid back.
Yes, this is more or less what I plan to do when it's warm, while it's...
I was wondering if there was a solution for us! Can you do it while still in your hammock though?:unsure:
My dogs just pile in with me, the larger one sleeps beside and the smaller one sleeps on top of me. It's quite warm.
He has his own, but he takes mine whenever possible.
I'm sure an more responsible person would come up with a way to test that gate, but I'd say try it and just make sure you have a safe place to land if it gives.
That, my friend, is a fantastic idea!
Here is the thread with the instructions I used:
So the post that originally brought me to these forums was one about hanging safely in a mobile home, and I finally got brave enough to try it out. It's working great, although I'm still getting in...
I don't think I've ever been annoyed by someone snoring, often I'm just amused if it is loud enough to wake me. I giggle myself back to sleep thinking about making fun of them in the morning....
Excellent, thank you for the pictures.
Thank you for that sir!
Btw, huge fan of your videos.
Thank you! I will give this a try until I get around to making a new bag.
Thanks guys, I was searching everywhere and was convinced I was missing something. I guess I'll be doing some sewing here shortly!
Into its stuff sack, I mean. I have a Yukon Outfitter's mosquito hammock and I cannot for the life of me get it back into it's stuff sack. Forgive me if this has been posted before, I didn't see...
I have a $10 emerald green gathered end that I got off of Amazon(Hammocks4All), it works really well and is very pretty. I also have some gray material that I plan to make into a double, if I ever...
I'm in, provided I can find the place, I've never been to HNF. What do I have to do to get signed up?
Would 1 person be able to put this tent up by themselves?
Figured I'd actually register and say hello after stalking the site for a few weeks. Completely new to hanging, but fascinated, and after going through a lot of how-to's, just placed an order for my...

BROOKLYN, Mich. -- Jeff Gordon claimed he was actually "relieved" to plummet from sixth to ninth in the standings Sunday after wrecking out of the 3M Performance 400.
"Now we can just not worry about anything," he said, meaning he can go for broke, "just go all out," through the final three races till the Chase.
But the fully frazzled look on his face precluded his putting the best possible face on a disastrous day for him and the rest of the sputtering Hendrick Motorsports team.
He wasn't so miffed at his collision with teammate Jimmie Johnson, which knocked both out of a chance to win, as he was that "we shouldn't have been back there [in midpack] in the first place."
He'd suffered two lousy pit stops. The first was "sorry," and he admonished his crew by radio afterward.
But the second was even worse: He came in fourth, went out 16th and then was hit broadside to broadside by Johnson, who'd been bumped from the outside by Tony Stewart.
Gordon blamed no one on the track. The three-wide struggle was caused in the pits, he said.
"We should have come out of there in the top five, and just running our own race," said Gordon, who'd started the race fifth. "Instead, we're back there in the middle of the whole mess and trying to run three- and four-wide, and that's what happens."
After their broadside, Johnson, who'd started second, had to pit immediately with a severe tire rub on Lap 91 under green, and then Gordon smacked the wall hard on Lap 97.
Johnson soldiered on and wound up 17th, even after he spun on the last lap. Atypically, he bolted from Michigan International Speedway without talking with the media.
Gordon returned late in the race, but debris from his damaged car brought out a caution, and he retired it on Lap 175 of the 200.
Gordon wasn't thrilled with his spotter's work in the seconds before the Stewart-Johnson-Gordon tangle, either.
"I came off [Turn] 4, then my spotter said at the last second, 'Two cars outside of you,' and it was too late. But looking at the replay, it looked like there was still enough room. It just looked like Tony came off the wall, touched Jimmie a little bit, Jimmie kicked in, and there was no room to move."
We just can't seem to get it all lined up this year. We finally had a great car. When we've had great pit stops we haven't had the car to back it up.
-- Jeff Gordon
Teammate Dale Earnhardt Jr., who'd started fourth, fought a loose car all race, finally smacked the wall on Lap 187, and wound up 23rd. The fourth Hendrick driver, lame duck Casey Mears, finished 18th.
At least Johnson and Earnhardt didn't lose positions in the standings, hanging onto third and fourth, respectively, while Gordon dropped three spots.
"I don't want to be where we are in the points right now," Gordon admitted, "but in some ways this is an easier position to be in, because we can go out there and run hard every weekend. We can take chances and do things that maybe get us our win.
"We've been stuck in the middle where we couldn't take a big risk -- couldn't risk fuel mileage, couldn't risk putting two tires on, we had to stay with four tires. We couldn't get too risky with our setups. All that stuff.
"You're just trying to ride along there and not make mistakes, and now a mistake is made, and I'm just glad we're running good finally."
But the No. 24 team has had trouble putting the whole combination together.
"We just can't seem to get it all lined up this year," Gordon said. "We finally had a great car. When we've had great pit stops we haven't had the car to back it up."
Earnhardt feels he's in the same boat, in lack of a complete package.
"For me it's been the same old story," he said. "We show up fast, we can't put a whole race together. So we've got to do some homework. We've got to figure out what's going on, because we sure are fast when the race starts."
So were Gordon and Johnson, early in what turned out to be another bad day for Hendrick.

Yes, in fact a large number of really strong players left the Soviet Union and became titled players in Europe and the US in the early 1990s.
thank you very much
Morpy - Tal - Fischer - Kasparov
I have doubts about the soundness of the sacrifice. Larsen should have won had it not been blitz.
Attacking in blitz to make your opponent think, so you can think on his time is quite often is part of a sound sacrifice.
I'd go with Nezhmetdinov, in the matches he plays with Tal, he comes out on top. Another great tactician I think should be mentioned is Veselin Topalov :D

[9.0] "Tiene un gran personaje que le encaja muy bien y ademas sabe interpretarlo de lo mejor. Aunque era muy limitado en el ring verlo era siempre entretenido, la TNA no lo supo usar bien y poco despues fue despedido. Actualmente me parece que se encuentra luchando en empresas independientes pero me gustaria volver a oir de el en alguna otra empresa grande en un futuro."
DanTalksRasslin wrote on 28.06.2015:
[6.0] "Shaw has the makings of a strong technical wrestler and put on several strong performances in TNA even before developing his "American Psycho" character. Once he began that gimmick he showed a good deal of performance acumen as well, playing the character convincingly with just the right edge of absurdity, though played totally straight. Despite fun storylines with Mr. Anderson and Gunner, the company seemingly never seemed to find a way to explain the abrupt end of his story with Brittany after her departure, and he ultimately left the company. Hopefully he will get another chance in another company."
JustinJDMarineau wrote on 17.05.2014:
[10.0] "I remember when Sam Shaw was Raven's lackie at Hardcore Justice 2010 and he interfered in Raven's match with Tommy Dreamer and he was just an extra back then. I also remember him when he was a really good wrestler on TNA's Gut Check that had no real direction and he was trying to get a spot on the roster. Now in 2014, he's known as Samuel Shaw and he changed his whole persona and now I've becoming a really big fan of his and he's one of my most favorite characters in TNA today cause he plays that creepy bastard character so damn well! Samuel Shaw never fails to entertain me with that character whatsoever and that's why I see big money in him going forward!"

God those freckles!
If only half of Russian girls are as hot as your models, I can understand men going crazy about them. I'm almost glad I ain't there.
I like your curves and the move the scapula ... and... of course.. the charm -- the freckles
LOVE her freckles!
Perfect !
You gotta be a little blind. I don't see any fruit!
you have a really beautiful back, great photo

No worries Rob..... By all
No worries Rob.....
By all means, we'd better keep proven veteran Mabry around for the playoff drive....or something.
That's much better than..say, bringing up Restovich or Hoffpauir for a 1 month tryout, because they couldn't match those sterling numbers.
The Cubs are a joke, for so many reasons.
Obviously you don't want to
Obviously you don't want to take away a manager's gut instinct or behind the scenes info on unofficial injuries, etc, but it is disappointing to see someone so hot sit on the bench.
What is more sour is that with the seeming likelihood of signing a power stick for LF next year, trading Murton in the offseason rather than keeping him around as a 4th outfielder (probably Pagan's job) becomes a very likely scenario. Enjoy him while you can.
That's much better
That's much better than..say, bringing up Restovich or Hoffpauir for a 1 month tryout, because they couldn't match those sterling numbers.
How about just hitting some ground balls to Murton at first and buying him a new glove. First base is not very hard to learn. Or try it with Pagan, don't matter.
But Rob, that would be
But Rob, that would be logical.
It's way too late in the season to start doing that!!!
I hate to draw analogies,
I hate to draw analogies, but look at today's Cardinal line-up and compare it to the 2005 Cubs...Who would you rather have?
1B: Pujols or DLee circa 2005?
2B: Ronnie Belliard or Todd Walker?
SS: Eckstein or Neifi?
3B: Rolen or A-Ram?
C: Bennett or Barrett?
LF: Chris Duncan or Todd Hollandsworth?
CF: Juan Encarnacion or Corey Patterson?
RF: Preston Wilson or Jeromy Burnitz?
As we learned last year, that ain't a line-up of a team the even sniffs contention.
Sorta on topic. Phil rogers
Sorta on topic. Phil rogers is the dumbest man in all of the writing business. How this guy writes about sports for a LIVING is beyond me. If I had my way he would be writing Hardee's advertisements.
I'd say this Marmol kid has
I'd say this Marmol kid has some composure problems...walks, errors, hit batters...ahh, the perils of youth.

Could use murton's
Could use murton's production right about now. what the f***, this is killing me.
Why not try Murton at second
Why not try Murton at second base. He could prove to be a good addition at that position. I don't think Cedeno is the answer. He probably will be a light hitting batter his whole career.
So much for the winning
So much for the winning streak and the perfect record against the Cards at home.

i've read a lot of comments on next year's potential outfield. Why have i heard absolutely nothing about a potential trade for Vernon Wells? the guy is a certified bad a**. he's under contract through '07, but looks like the Jays may not have enough $$$ for an extension. is there potential for this?
looks like marmol might have
looks like marmol might have pitched himself out of the rotation.
"Why have i heard absolutely
"Why have i heard absolutely nothing about a potential trade for Vernon Wells?"
I've mentioned him and Andruw Jones in center, as well have others.
See what happens when our pitchers don't walk anybody? DISASTER!
Marmol's velocity was down
Marmol's velocity was down to 88-89mph so I'm sure that's why he was given the early hook...even moreso than the 3 ER. Probably will be hearing that Marmol will be going on the 15 day DL with "shoulder stiffness" or "shoulder irritation"...ie rag arm.
In the postgame interview on
In the postgame interview on Comcast, Dusty said Marmol was taken out because he had pain in his right bicep.
whatever the hell gets him
whatever the hell gets him out of the rotation...
Also, Dusty said that Izzy
Also, Dusty said that Izzy has had a tight hamstring for a bit and that is why he was taken out. Most likely he won't be in the lineup tomorrow.
Well with Izzy hurt, I'm
Well with Izzy hurt, I'm sure that will give Dusty the chance to give Theroit a start.
Dusty can play Theriot or
Dusty can play Theriot or Neifi, there and I can care less which one, as they both are back up players. But if the Cubs are serious with keeping Cedeno at 2B for next year, I hope he doesn't play SS unless in an emergency. He needs to break all those habits of playing SS and should focus on what a 2B is suppose to do.
Here is a poll from this
Here is a poll from this week's SI:
Which ballpark is the most difficult to play in as a visiting player? (Based on a survery of 415 MLB players)
Yankee Stadium - 21%
Fenway Park - 20%
Wrigley Field - 10%
Citizens Bank Park (Philly)- 10%
Rob, as always, your post
Rob, as always, your post titles prove to be eerily inversely prophetic.
Dusty can play Theriot or
Dusty can play Theriot or Neifi, there and I can care less which one, as they both are back up players.
Vintage, Manny, vintage. Just because they're both backups doesn't mean they're the same level of ability.
theriot can take a
theriot can take a walk...neifi can hit for doubles power with the occasional homer.
there's your difference...and its not like theriot's gonna take 100 walks and K 50 times. theriot does have 3 doubles and a triple, but 2 of those doubles should have been outs.
How many of Neifi's doubles
How many of Neifi's doubles (or base hits for that matter) should have been outs?
No, Crunch, your difference
No, Crunch, your difference is that Theriot can get on-base, and Neifi can't.
theriot... 27ab's and
27ab's and everyone's gonna throw 2+ years of scouting out the window. great job.
what i said i'll stand by.
Oh, come on, Crunch. I'm not
Oh, come on, Crunch. I'm not saying Theriot is a decent player or even a decent prospect. Theriot isn't a regular and he probably shouldn't be on the ML squad. But neither should Neifi.
If it's a choice between the career 40 ABs of Theriot at .275/.356/.425 or Neifi (career 4992 ABs, .269/.299/.378), I'll stand by what I said and take the former.
And, btw, that "doubles
And, btw, that "doubles power with the occasional homer" has shown itself in 2 HRs and 13 2Bs in 230 ABs. That, and his season line of .252/.265/.343, is truly horrible.
and all im saying is what
and all im saying is what theyre capable of.
im not pulling this outta thin air. if you wanna shoot the messenger, just get your guns and go shoot the player doing it. he's the guy responsible for what he can and cannot do.
your hope, wishes, and dreams for theriot will not make him something he's not.
i didnt say who SHOULD play, but i did say what they can/cannot do.
if you're pissed theriot cant do what he cant do, take it up with him...its not my fault.
Whom exactly are you arguing
Whom exactly are you arguing with? I'm not disagreeing with you about Theriot -- he's nothing special. He's not anyone that should be playing UNLESS it's in lieu of Neifi. In my mind, he's simply "alternative to Neifi". Come on, Crunch.
neifi's only got power from
neifi's only got power from the right side and not much of it. Theriot's a different player the last 2 years since he scrapped switch-hitting.
well andrew, if i scroll up
well andrew, if i scroll up it seems like i presented the differences between theriot/neifi and well, it didnt go over well.
i dunno what im argueing about at this point...it seemed that neifi vs. theriot comparison you didnt like, though.
there is very little mystery to theriot's game...if he didnt play SS as well as 2nd, he'd be in the class with fontenot and b.hill...the dude isnt an ob% machine and he's a single hitter.
and as hard as it may be to imagine, yes, give neifi a full season and he's a 30+double 10-homer guy. he wont walk as much as theriot, but there is more pop in his bat.
colvin 3/4 with a double
colvin 3/4 with a double today...up to .276

see you in 2 years hopefully.

btw...darin downs pitched, too.
another piss-poor outting.
poor kid. he was quite a promising suprise pick, but he's flaming out quite quik.
I was at the ballgame today
I was at the ballgame today -- two quick thoughts for those who didn't watch.
- The 3rd inning brought back memories of The Neifi Game against the Braves. 3 errors charged, and Cedeno should have had Marquis' inning-opening grounder -- went as a hit, but the play should have been made. Marmol's 2 errors were just horrible ands stupid -- his wild pick off throw was easily the worst I have ever seen -- it's like he thought first base was 10 feet left of where it actually is. Like the Braves series, the Cardinals 3rd base coach just kept waving runners home, knowing the Cubs can't execute a simple cut-off play. Truly embarrassing to be there watching all the Cardinal fans laughing at the Cubs Little League efforts.
- For those who didn't watch -- no cheap HRs for the Cards today. Each one was a rocket -- I don't know what the hell Aardsman was throwing, but it looked like BP. Truly frightening.
Lovely to see that Sean
Lovely to see that Sean Marshall got rocked, again.
Crunch, I don't mind if you compare Neifi and Theriot, I just hold strongly that there's a distinct difference between the two. If you want to call them both worthless players, fine, but one of them is clearly, clearly more worthless. That was my point.
Ryan Theriot is a different
Ryan Theriot is a different hitter the last two years since he stopped switch-hitting. He benefitted from working with Von Joshua at West Tenn last year and at Iowa this year, and has been a consistent .304 hitter both last year at AA and this year at AAA. He doesn't hit home runs, but he does hit doubles and triples, and he steals bases. And he hustles his ass off. He also has a knack for hitting foul balls virtually at wiil. He is literally a David Eckstein clone.
Of course you're right about
Of course you're right about Theriot Arizona Phil. I've said the same since I saw him in spring training. He's a real nice ballplayer who belongs in the major leagues. No doubt about it fine second baseman and good hitter.
Hope Dusty gets the axe and he gets a genuine chance.
Still seasoning: FELIX PIE
Still seasoning:
FELIX PIE went 4/5 tonight with a double, leading off for Iowa. He's raised his BA to .282 .
Meanwhile, Dusty's boy Bynum has apparently been handed the second baseman job (Fontenot=chopped liver) and the second spot in the order.
CWTP, I think Fontenot is
I think Fontenot is hurt but not on the DL.
The stats you give for Neifi are pretty good for a MLB bench player, especially a middle infielder. The thing that pisses you off is his OBP butthat is a stathead concern. More MLB teams find those stats useful than do not. Especially for a guy who is very sound inthe field, good in the clubhouse, and a team guy. He is also a guy who would be picked up right away if we DFA'd him tomorrow. Everyone who has a lower OBP is criticized here so it doesn't make any sense to argue about it. Theriot is a very nice utility player and I hope he is a Cub for many years to come but he is no savior or even a regular solet's just see what happens over the next 12 months.
What a sad state of affairs
What a sad state of affairs when the argument is if Cedeno, Bynum, Neifi, Fontenot or Theriot should be seeing playing time at 2B for the Chicago Cubs. Crap vs. crap vs. crap vs. crap. I wish that was ACTUALLY the top 5 things wrong with the Cubs. That should be something to waste any time on, if this team was a division leader, not 17 games under .500. But whatever, give Cubs fans their kicks nowadays.
i dunno if he is indeed a
i dunno if he is indeed a different hitter since he quit switch hitting...or what way, rather.
he's still got no power, not even doubles power. i haven't seen it, my friends haven't seen it, and unless im being lied to, he dont even show it during BP hitting those stupid yellow loogie balls.
bat control...this has gotten better, but he's still not a great contact hitter (which is kinda like having a nice boat with only 1 paddle...you got what you need, but it may not be pretty).
he's gonna K...he's also gonna walk...but the thing that bothers me is when he does make contact, he's not gonna go far and not going there often enough.
eckstein might be a good comparison, but that's not anything a player wants to be besides the "has heart" part. a guy who's playing beyond his skill set consistantly isnt projectible, just rare.
bobby hill sighting... San
bobby hill sighting...
San Diego Padres minor league 2B Bobby Hill has been named to the USA Olympic qualifying roster, according to Amanda Branam of Sandiego.Padres.MLB.com. Hill, currently with Triple-A Portland, will be in the 2006 COPABE Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Cuba, from Friday, Aug. 25 through Tuesday, Sept. 5.
from kffl.com
What do we know? Neifi is a
What do we know?
Neifi is a .300 winning percentage-level player.
Cedeno has shown he is no better. He does have an advantage of youth, which means he may post sub .300 OBPs for years to come.
Izturis is in the same league offensively.
You CANNOT devote 1200 PAs over a season to two lineup spots which produce at that level. That is, unless the rest of your lineup is the '61 Yankees.
Actually Bobby Ridhardson was a Neifi/Cedeno-like player offensively. That's why he scored all of 80 runs hitting in front of Maris and Mantle. That's why before 1961, Stengel would bat him 9th in the batting order. Great "bat control", though. Great guy in the clubhouse. I sure Dusty would have loved him.
Ok Crunch, since "i dunno if
Ok Crunch, since "i dunno if he is indeed a different hitter since he quit switch hitting...or what way, rather."
Here's his last 2 years, this year at Iowa, and last year at AA.
Neifi for his career:
Neifi won ONE gold glove 6 years ago. He is NOT that player now. He is not a #2 hitter, no matter how much Dusty would like him to be.
Will Theriot "save" the Cubs? No, of course not. Does he have any power? No!
Is he less expensive, younger, and have more upside than Neifi!..yes.
Does Theriot show that he can work the count, get on base, take an occasional walk, and steal some bases?
In his last 2 years, and a small MLB sample size, he does.
For every "10 HR" year in the great Neifi Perez's career, you also get clunkers like this:
This team has lots of issues, but Neifi getting to play more than 1 time a week , except as a defensive replacement, shouldn't be one of them.
Cubs minor league highlights
Cubs minor league highlights from yesterday:
Round Rock completes 4 game sweep of Iowa Cubbies. Obligatory Cubs 1st Round Bust update: Luis Montanez - no AB last night
West Tenn Diamond Jaxx continue their death spiral of the 2nd half season (hard to blame them - with the exception of Sean Gallagher, all of their starters have been promoted to the bigs or AAA). Obligatory Cubs 1st Round Bust update: Bob Brownlie pitches 2/3 of IP, no runs.
Daytona blows lead in bottom of the 8th, now drops to 3rd in division. Obligatory Cubs 1st Round Bust update: Ryan Harvey 2-4, 2rbi, no K
Peoria - loses 12-0 and NO-HIT in the process. Continue poor 2nd half. No Cubs 1st Round pick on roster. Yusef Carter does manage to not strike out - a feat more rare than the team being no-hit.
Boise - wins 5-1. Obligatory Cubs 1st Round Bust update: After having his avg. peak in the .320's, Tyler Colvin has been in a major Aug swoon, with the avg. dropping to the .260's (with several K's and a smattering of BB's -- a true Cubs prototype hitter for sure), Colvin bounces back with a 4-5 night to up the .avg to .276
Crunch doens't understand
Crunch doens't understand that 1 pitch can decide a game and one game a season. He'll agree that Albert Pujols is better than Travis Lee, but besides that all the players are about the same, and there's no need to concern yourself with roster spots 18-25.

Wake Up Real Neal!
You are being way too narrow in comparing a guy with what - 350+ AB's in ONE SEASON ? with a proven, veteran, clutch power hitter that can also hit for average AND can field his position better.
Come back in two more years, and then you can have a better sampling, Senior.
So now we are suppose to
So now we are suppose to decide what to do in LF in 2007 based on what? 6 weeks and maybe 100 AB's? Sounds like a good idea to me....
Murton's numbers since the
Murton's numbers since the all-star break shouldn't have any effect on signing another slugger this offseason.
What is insane is that a player can be hitting that well, and not be playing everyday.
But you know, Murton went into a slump in May, so he can't be counted on anymore. Afterall, Its not like anyone expected Dusty to cut Murton's playing time if he hit a rough patch. No one could have ever seen that one coming...
What's the story with Vernon
What's the story with Vernon Wells? There has been speculation here on TCR and elsewhere that he could be in the Cubs sights for 2007. But why would Toronto give him up? He's signed through 2007 and is one of the better CF in all of baseball. Is it legit to think he might end up in a Cubs uniform next year?
But why would Toronto give
But why would Toronto give him up? He's signed through 2007 and is one of the better CF in all of baseball. Is it legit to think he might end up in a Cubs uniform next year?
Apparently Vernon Wells has said he won't sign an extenstion with the Blue Jays (wants to be closer to his home in Texas), making it likely that he'll be traded during the off-season. I suppose the Cubs could get him, if Hendry wants him, and Riccardi is looking for some young, talented pitchers who don't like to throw a lot of strikes.
Dont go after Wells he's
Dont go after Wells he's another one of those Wilken drafts in Toronto and this is the same idiot that brought you Tyler Colvin!
neal...umm wrong. just
wrong. just wrong. totally wrong.
stick to looking at blank stats without worrying how they got those stats. leave the analysis of what i know to those who are more familiar with what i know...like me.
Slamdog, Yea, slam Wilkens
Yea, slam Wilkens for his outstanding drafts in Toronto. You mean to tell me that you know what Colvin will turn out to be? Wilkens has a track record as good as any evaluator in baseball. Even if Colvin is a bust, it won't change his overall record of having high draft choices reach the majors.
Manny and E-Man, Murton has
Manny and E-Man,
Murton has a higher OBP than Lee. Murton is going to continue to add power to his game. Murton is a better fielder than Lee and Lee is going to get worse and worse. Give your left ear a tug, maybe that is the on-switch for your brains.
Maybe you shouldn't talk about knowing where stats came from, in a post where you've been proven wrong on Neifi's stats. Just something to consider.
i got proven wrong about
i got proven wrong about what stats of neifi?

"theriot can take a
"theriot can take a walk...neifi can hit for doubles power with the occasional homer."
Neifi's career doubles per 162 games = 28
Theriot's over last two years = 32
League and park adjust those, and what's it come to? The same.
Of course Neifi's doubles probably look better to your expert eye than Theriots.
"League and park adjust

Having no idea seems to be a recurring theme with you.
Let me spell it out for you, using short words. Theriot hits as many doubles as Neifi.
so does michael
so does michael barrett...let's keep trading up til theriot's good as pujols.
REal Neal, Let's see...Neifi
REal Neal,
Let's see...Neifi hits his in the majors and Theriot hits his in the minors and 28 = 32 by park and league aadjustment, ummm. Where do you get that?
Walt: Let's see...Neifi hits
Let's see...Neifi hits his in the majors and Theriot hits his in the minors and 28 = 32 by park and league aadjustment, ummm. Where do you get that?
I think the 32 was for Theriot and the 28 was for Neifi, so he was adjusting Neifi up and Theriot down when he said they are the same.
Anyway, the point is, Neifi doesn't really have significantly more power than Theriot, and does not take walks, making Theriot the superior hitter.
majors to minors do not make
majors to minors do not make a comparison.
"majors to minors do not
"majors to minors do not make a comparison."
You're correct. Often players who really struggle in the minors become major league stars.
Let's just use Major League stats, and act like Coors field in the 90's wasn't a hitter's haven.
Neifi's slugging .378
Theriot's slugging .415
Thanks for clearing that up, Walt. Crunch is still wrong.
Players who often struggle
Players who often struggle in the minors do not even make the majors. High level prospects get the chance like CPat did. We cannot predict what Theriot will do in the majors based on his minor league stats. The fact is that I like him, actually any player that hustles all of the time. He'd be a nice Neifi replacement but still we have no idea if he is a better hitter than Neifi.
neal...i dunno how you
neal...i dunno how you manage to walk with a diaper full of crap around your waist.
at least it matches what you got comming outta your fingertips via your mouth.
i dont mind you've twisted your logic to make your arguemnt work...even in its very weak manner. you've made things up, tried to talk about stats, then compared minor/major leaguers...now you say struggle = greatness.
well damn...brandon sing is a 40HR 1st baseman waiting to happen...look how much he's struggling.
how can you pile a list of logic like that crap above and still have the balls to end your statements with "crunch is still wrong."?
Crunch, Have you ever heard
Have you ever heard of the word 'sarcasm'?
What an idiot.
Maybe in English class they explained about sarcasm the same day they went over capitalization? Maybe it was the same year, I get the feeling you slept a lot in school.
Now, let's pretend like you're reaonable. You said that Theriot can take a walk, and Neifi hit's doubles. That implies that Neifi's doubles 'power' is a trade-off for his not being able to take a 2-0 pitch. Except that Theriot hits doulbes at the same rate. So, there actually is no trade-off, no advantage to playing Neifi, regardless of what your sister's girlfriend's brother's barber saw at batting practice one day.
Just a question, these things that I allegedly made up. Can you quote any of them? Where is this twisted logic that my posts are rife with, or is that just an idiot not being able to detect blatant sarcasm?
The fact is that minor league success or lack there of is a very strong indicator of major league success. It is also the best indicator you have when a player comes up to the majors.
keep changing that
keep changing that arguement...hey this is sarcasm...what an idiot you are! haha.
"Just a question, these
"Just a question, these things that I allegedly made up. Can you quote any of them? Where is this twisted logic that my posts are rife with, or is that just an idiot not being able to detect blatant sarcasm?"
well, im at home now...i can elaborate...aka SCROLL UP TO SEE WHAT'S WRITTEN FOR THE WORLD TO SEE...
1- Crunch doens't understand that 1 pitch can decide a game and one game a season.
...false generalization.
2- 5 years at $70 million? SIGN HIM UP!
3- Maybe you shouldn't talk about knowing where stats came from, in a post where you've been proven wrong on Neifi's stats.
...your use of the word "proof" especially when im not even talking stats...your 1st changing of what i said to fit an arguement/conversation on your view.
4- League and park adjust those, and what's it come to? The same.
...you made that up.
5- Of course Neifi's doubles probably look better to your expert eye than Theriots.
...sarcasm i suppose
6- Let me spell it out for you, using short words. Theriot hits as many doubles as Neifi.
...so does michael barrett...only mike does it in the bigs, not in AA/AAA. this is not 2 comparible items.
7- Often players who really struggle in the minors become major league stars.
...occasionally true, but well...that's a crapshoot and you cant just apply it to a player cuz you want to...in this case, theriot.
8- You said that Theriot can take a walk, and Neifi hit's doubles. That implies that Neifi's doubles 'power' is a trade-off for his not being able to take a 2-0 pitch.
...no, it doesnt.
9- The fact is that minor league success or lack there of is a very strong indicator of major league success. It is also the best indicator you have when a player comes up to the majors.
...now that is a gem. success or lack of it is a strong indicator of success. you realize you were being asked how in the hell you came to your conclusion that struggle in the minors = success in the majors. you didnt even address the issue and claimed either/or works.
there ya go neil...you asked, you recieved. the things you made up...the gross generalization you think are facts cuz you wanna believe them...etc etc.
btw...if you got a problem
btw...if you got a problem with any of that...pick 1 and follow up...or more than 1 if you can stay on task.
i can explain to you how the PCL is a hitter's league and etc etc. if you want help handicapping theriot's minor league career. then we can go to talking about AAA-calibre pitching if youre not bored by that point. the talk about unrefined breaking pitches and location is pretty damn boring.
we can also talk about where theriot actually puts the ball in play and you can tell me what your thoughts on watching him take BP are.

Cards and Pirates lose. I'm OK with that.
I'm ready for the end of the Miggy era.
he juuuuuuuuuuuuuuuust got there...1st appearance, injury...yow
b.matusz it is.
Oops. Colin Rea leaves the game with injury.
Cubs optioned Justin Grimm to Iowa after the game. No corresponding roster move announced yet, but it could be Brian Matusz.
Marlins with a quick 4 spot vs Jaime Garcia. Osuna HR the highlight.
Brian Matusz, supposedly he has attachments. Hope it's not like an email with a virus attached.
One thing to remember about Chapman -- he can be magic, but his ERA is higher than Rondon's this year. 100+ mph is fun, but I'd love to see a few more sliders. I think he enjoys the crowd reaction from 103 mph.
"Diamondbacks designated RHP Josh Collmenter for assignment."
aww...he was my 2nd favorite crapballer. his control issues are rather severe at the moment.
Wow -- Chapman gives up a hit and everything completely caves in. I think the Cubs went into collective shock.
Stolen base with the pitcher holding the ball, WP that should have been caught or blocked, then Russell with a 2-out error on a routine play. Cubs handed them 2 runs. Throw in a Fowler bobble and it was a mess.
Hopefully, that is all out of their system now -- let's get a W tomorrow.
First time I've ever seen a base running slump -- he's made some poor decisions recently, but I thought it was a great idea to try to score there -- it's not like Heyward was going to get a 2-out hit against a LHP. Sliding feet-first into home is probably the safe (ugh) way to go, but it's hard to get the foot on the plate.
Yup. He got squeezed (twice) on the first walk, but, when you have one-run lead and the other team is trying to make an out -- take the out.
Wasn't fun!
Clearly the Cubs need to clear out the farm and trade for another closer
Where's Ed Lynch when you need him?

Violent anti-US protest erupts in Afghan capital
More than 1,000 Afghans staged a violent protest against a US-made film mocking the Prophet Mohammed in Kabul on Monday, setting fire to cars and shouting "Death to America", police said.
The demonstration erupted on Jalalabad Road, home to NATO and US military bases in the eastern part of the Afghan capital, with two police cars among those set ablaze, Kabul police chief Mohammad Ayoub Salangi told AFP.
Global Access Control Card Market Outlook 2016-2021
Gunmen from the crowd opened fire at police, but no one was hurt, police said. "We have not shot back and we won't," Salangi said.
An AFP photographer said burning tyres sent thick black smoke streaming into the sky and large stones littered the road as shopkeepers in the area hurriedly locked up and ran away.

Studies in secure programming for admins
Like a poison apple, a Web program that is tasty on the surface may contain a highly dangerous core. Admins who do their own programming need to follow secure programming practices to avoid the bitter taste of insecurity.
This article describes some special kinds of program input that administrators who maintain Websites often contend with. I'll present case studies that take a close look at problems and solutions related to cross-site scripting, malicious email addresses, and buffer overflows. If there is a theme to this discussion, it is that developers need to carefully validate all input and the relationships between various items of input. Assume all input is guilty until proven innocent. And the more complex this input is, the more important it is to code carefully to anticipate the actions of would-be intruders.

Its founding principals collectively have over 90 years combined experience in commercial real estate. But the firm stands out for a few reasons. For one, unlike many smaller platforms, Atalanta's principals have both asset and property level management experience. Secondly, ...

A large-scale railgun is being considered by the U.S. Navy as a future long-range (>200 nm) naval weapon system. The notional concept includes a 15 kg projectile with a 2.5 km/s muzzle velocity. The choice of bore and rail geometry for such a weapon can influence key aspects of the total system design. This study explored a range of bore and rail geometries and looked at their effects on key railgun system parameters such as parasitic mass, inductance gradient, linear current density, required pulse forming network (PFN) size, and barrel mass. Preliminary solid modeling and structural analysis of the integrated launch package was performed in order to quantify parasitic mass. Inductance gradient calculations were based on a current density distribution analysis. A PFN/launcher numerical simulation model was then used to determine linear current density and PFN size. Finally, barrel mass was estimated by structural analysis based on calculated rail repulsive forces. Trends and sensitivities of the different parameters to changes in the bore and rail geometries are presented and conclusions are given.

Zemplar Capsules
Excessive administration of Zemplar Capsules can cause hypercalcemia, hypercalciuria, and hyperphosphatemia, and over suppression of PTH [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Treatment Of Overdosage
The treatment of acute overdosage of Zemplar Capsules should consist of general supportive measures. If drug ingestion is discovered within a relatively short time, induction of emesis or gastric lavage may be of benefit in preventing further absorption. If the drug has passed through the stomach, the administration of mineral oil may promote its fecal elimination. Serial serum electrolyte determinations (especially calcium), rate of urinary calcium excretion, and assessment of electrocardiographic abnormalities due to hypercalcemia should be obtained. Such monitoring is critical in patients receiving digitalis. Discontinuation of supplemental calcium and institution of a low-calcium diet are also indicated in accidental overdosage. Due to the relatively short duration of the pharmacological action of paricalcitol, further measures are probably unnecessary. If persistent and markedly elevated serum calcium levels occur, there are a variety of therapeutic alternatives that may be considered depending on the patient's underlying condition. These include the use of drugs such as phosphates and corticosteroids, as well as measures to induce an appropriate forced diuresis.
Zemplar is not significantly removed by dialysis.
Zemplar Capsules should not be given to patients with evidence of
- hypercalcemia or
- vitamin D toxicity [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].

I would like to configure Windows 7 to open every new .txt file into the first of the existing TextPad instances.
I know how to open new files all into a single TextPad instance but I am trying to avoid disabling multiple instances.
Instead, if multiple instances are open, open the new file in the first (or last, if it can be configured) instance.
I remember it used to be able to be done in Win2K and Windows XP under File Associations and there was something like a command options field where there was specific syntax that enabled this. So back then, I was indeed able to perform this functionality.
