DNA test finally came back
Jaydeen K - 3/6
Silver Boobies ( . Y . )
we got a dna at a year too. i actually did get to see his face. also they changed their procedure and take the women back first to ask if they have been a victim of physical violence. so they took me back and then called me back. they had told me already ( we were in mediatation at our AGs office) so i think he thought it came back negative ( which really he knew it wouldn't). So they told him and he seemed like---sad and resigned. he really didnt want to be. i wanted to kick him in the nuts. then he asked to hold her and we continued on.
a year later hes only seen her like 4 times with me. we havent heard from him since July. and his wife called yesterday asking if they could pick her up Friday ( she has NEVER spent solo time with them). Yeah okay crazy lady. NO.

Mama to Lucy Alayna (1/6/12)
Its mainly denial so they don't have to support their child. I glad you got the results and I can bet, he always knew this child was his, but it got him off the hook for ayear. GL
O man, I have been waiting 3 years for this ish to get done. As soon as the order is made he doesnt take it. He know the kid is his. Doesnt wanna be responsible for her. idk what to do. Don't know how to make him take the test.
Congrats on proving him wrong. Hopefully he steps up now

I have two themes installed and want their media folders to be separate.
I created two directories:
I go to Network Admin, selected the site one by one, and changed the setting:
Fileupload Url: http://mysite.com/wp-content/uploads/theme1
Fileupload Url: http://mysite.com/wp-content/uploads/theme2
Everything works great for site 1, when I upload media, it dumps into the correct directory.
But for some reason, on site 2 it is uploading the media to "files" directory, which i guess is a virtual directory setup by wordpress for multisites.
Any idea why it would work for one but not the other?
And how can I get the second site to upload to the directory I would like it to?
Any help appreciated!

Fish Day Or Night With e-striker Fishing Rod Holderby Samantha Pankey
Fishing is generally considered a daytime activity. However, some like to night fish. That usually means less visibility and if you're fising with a cork, sometimes you don't know when you have a strike on your line. The e-striker makes fishing, especially night fishing, more convenient.
Land Rover Preparing To Introduce Range Rover Evoque Convertibleby Motors.new
It would appear the popular Range Rover Evoque compact luxury CUV family is about to expand. A convertible version of the three-door Evoque Coupé has been spied being road-tested and the production version could be introduced as early as March 2015 at the Geneva Motor Show.
Run, Run Run: Innovative Training and Gaming Systemby M Dee Dubroff
This innovative running and gaming system is based on a new smart textile that has transformed runnng from an individual sport into a community endeavor. Read on for more details.
Solar Sunglasses You Can Never Forget Or Loseby M Dee Dubroff
To lose an expensive pair of sunglasses can be both costly and painful. Because they aren't attached to anything when not being worn, it is easy to leave them behind; that is until now. Read on to learn more about the innovative Australian company that has solved this problem.
Want A Highly Portable Solar Lantern?by Laurie Kay Olson
We have become so used to having light at the flip of a switch that it can be a little alarming to find that the power has gone out. It can even be a little challenging when we go camping and know that we are going to be dealing with darkness. With a Solar Air Lantern we can be prepared to light things up again in a different way with an array of LED lights and a reflector.
The Raptor Is Like No Other Football (Because It's More Like A Plane)by Samantha Pankey
There is no official record of the longest football (American football) throw. People point to NFL quarterbacks, like Vinny Testaverde, who've chucked the ball 80-90 yards, but has anyone thrown a football 100 yards? If they've thrown the Raptor Football, they have.
This Bizarre Concept Jeep From ZiL Just Might Be Russia's New Humveeby Motors.new
Russia might not be known for its innovative and appealing mass-market automobiles but be assured the nation's military rolls with the best of 'em. With that said, this bizarre "army car" concept from ZiL has got a decent shot at being the Russian army's next wheeled workhorse, and it could happen as early as 2015.
The Denny Has All The Right Features For The Urban Commuterby Samantha Pankey
It's an urban commuter's dream--a bicycle with all of those little perks that make commuting just a little easier. The Denny by Teague + and Sizemore incorporates features designed to eliminate commuting worries. It is "an everyday bike that removes the barriers to becoming an everyday rider."
Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 Concept Pickup Looks Riled Up & Ready To Rumbleby Motors.new
Chevrolet's Colorado ZR2 Concept pickup picks up where its all-new for 2015 Colorado Z71 bro leaves off, and for a host of recreational off-roading fans that means where the pavement ends. 'Course, you might like the Colorado ZR2 Concept pickup as a daily driver, which is too bad because as a concept it's not available for purchase... yet.
Belt-Scooter: Ride It, Then Wear Itby Samantha Pankey
It's a belt...no, it's a scooter. Nope. It's both. Corny Superman references aside, the Collapsible Belt-Scooter, designed by Adam Torok, is genius. It provides you with a means of transportation quicker than walking, and when you get where you're going, the scooter transforms into a belt, so you don't have to worry about finding a place to stow it.
Blade Rumblers: The Top 10 Freakiest & Flakiest Snow Plowsby Motors.new
Polar Vortex 2, Electric Booglaoo has brought an early blast of winter weather to a wholly unprepared nation a month before Winter™ officially arrives. Yeah, it sucks, but there's one thing Old Man Winter didn't bargain on: some of the freakiest, flakiest snow plows ever to scrape a snowbank off a side street.
Zumer Sport Incorporates Sports Materials Into Their Productsby Samantha Pankey
Duffel bags, coin purses, book bags, iPad cases, sunglasses cases, wallets--these are just some of the products that Zumer Sport makes. Of course, other companies product these things as well, however Zumer's products are unique, because they incorporate sports into their designs.
Special Edition AEV Filson Wrangler Is No Cheap Jeepby Motors.new

Deeper Turns Your Smartphone Into A Fish Finderby Samantha Pankey
Aspiring outdoors men (and outdoors women), are you planning your next or first fishing trip? If you are (or if I just inspired you to do so with my lead), maybe you're thinking you could use some help finding a honey hole. Well, fear not, Deeper Fishfinder can help.
First Soviet SUV Sports Lots Of Utility, Enormous Tiresby Motors.new
This weathered survivor of the former USSR's park ranger service might just be the former Soviet Union's first SUV... or Monster Car... or both! Designed to handle Russia's worst roads (and that's saying something), the rare GAZ M72 allowed Russians to drive where no Russian had driven before.

WHL is great but not great enough.
I love White Hart Lane, a stadium steeped in history and many a memorable football match. Although I do feel we need to move with the times and find a new, more dynamic, modern stadium. Hate to say it but Arsenals stadium is a work of art, absolutely breathtaking and must be inspiration for us to go one better.
Alexandra Palace, apparently looking for developers would be an amazing location, keeping all it's existing features to retain its history mixed with the best in modern architecture. The work of Sir Giles Gilbert Scott (of Tate Modern fame) springs to mind and would give it the style and sophistication it deserves. Overlooking the whole of london It would be a real spectacle and remind everyone of our authenticity as the original north london club. It could easily fit 60 thousand seats and with great parking facilities, it's a must.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

Do you guys think you will fill a 60,000 seater stadium?
You need to start getting some success on the pitch before you can even fathom it.
P.S. Anyone for bumlove?

No thank you timmy. But thanks for asking.
I think we'll fill a 60,000 seater stadium, just like Man City did with City Ground. I also think it is foolish to start spending money on a new stadium which is no guaratee for success, when that money could you utilised to strengthening the squad, improving our academy system etc.
Man City moved into their new stadium in 2003 and since then they have won nothing and not once appeared in Europe.
Couldnt agree more, I love WHL for its special atmosphere (so much better than the library)the great times i had on the old shelf, and the glory, glory nights.
But times have moved on, the facilities in the ground are are poor, and the access awful. You cant hold to onto grounds for sentimental reasons, if Liverpool can leave Anfield, then Spurs must move. Developing WHL is not an option in my eyes, due to where it is, and the space around it. I think Levy and co. must act on this, or gulf in revenue means we will fall yet further behind the big 4. Years of no european revenue have hurt us, but after the pain of finacing a new stadium is over, we can rival the south london imposters again.

|A paradigm in molecular biology, lasting for more than two decades, was that one gene gave rise to one protein. Nowadays, it is well-knownthat one gene can give multiple mRNAs by the usage different transcription start sites and different polyadentlation sites, and by alternative splicing. Another unexpected source of variability is the formation of transcription induced chimeres (TIC), mRNAs composed of two gene sequences. In this Thesis we describe for the first time TIC in birds. We have found two TIC in chick and quail embryos which contain tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and insulin gene sequences. The TIC, named TH-INS1 and TH-INS2 differ in their insulin sequence content. TH-INSI and TH-INSI2 proteins correspond to truncated TH forms that lack the tetramerization domain (TH-INS2) or replace the tetramerization domain with a new amino acid sequence (TH-INS1). Both TH isoforms serve to regulate TH activity, because their enzymatic activity is 6 to 7 times lower than that of canonical TH, and the TIC regulate insulin production since insulin mRNA is interrupter.
TH is the rate limiting enzyme in catecholamines biosynthesis that catalyzes the convertion of L-tyrosine to L-DOPA (catecholamines precursos). We describe in this work the expression pattern of TH during the early chick embryo development. Functional TH is detected since St8, with expression restricted to the heart primordium.
Some authors have proposed a role for catecholamines during heart develpment (Sarasa and Climent, 1991; Zhou et al., 1995; Kobayashi et al., 1995; Thomas et al., 1995).
In this study we show that L-DOPA and dopamine (first catecholamine in catecholamines bisynthesis pathway) added to chick embryos in specifi positions, induced the ectopic expression of cardiac markers such as Tbx5, Nkx2.5, AMHC-1 (atrial myosin), VMHC-1 (ventricular myosin). Moreover, these cells not only express cardiac markers but also are morphologically and ultrastucturally cardiomiocytes-like. In contrast, inhibition of endogenous L-DOPA and dopamine production in chick embryos inhibits AMHC-1 and VMHC-1 expression. Using a genetical manipulation approach, we have found that TH over-expression in chick embryos, induces AMHC-1 and VMHC-1 expression. On the other hand, TH blocking by morphilinos inhibits AMCH-1 expression.
We also demosntrate in this Thesis the implication of L-DOPA and dopamine in mouse embryonic stem cells cardiac differentiation. L-DOPA and dopamine induced the expression of the cardiac markers Nkx2.5, GATA4, Tbx5, MHC and TT2. In parallel, we observed that L-DOPA and dopamine blocked the erytroid lineage differentiation.

I have used the slide show on several websites and love what it can do under a header, i.e. http://dev.horticulture.wisc.edu as an example.
However, I want to use it on a site where I have manipulated the header to be a non-traditional size. Now when I resize the site on a browser the pictures go outside the header on all sides. http://nisa.cals.wisc.edu/devsite/ If you drop the devsite you will see what the original site looks like.
I am not very proficient at digging deep into the bowels of css, so am not sure where to start with this. I'm thinking it has something to do with positioning, but I tried various settings and nothing made a difference.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

After two weeks I tracked the shippment and found it never left "A Little Crafty". At that time I called and left a message about the shippement.
Since then I have called twice a week and left messages, continued to track a shippment that has never left the company, e-mailed the generic customer service email, and tried multiple time to contact them during their "Live Chat" forum on their website.
No-one has contacted me and I have not gotten my patch. I wish I had looked up the company before hand. Our next step will be to contact our bank to try and get our money back as there has been no communication with us and the company.

/// How to Sell Songs on iTunes If You're Not Miley Cyrus or Katy Perry
In the old days, a couple of years ago, the best way to sell digital music was to get your song featured in an Apple commercial . New option: Get your song featured in the series finale of really popular show. More than 10 million people watched the last episode of "Breaking Bad" Sunday night, which means more than 10 million people listened to "Baby Blue", Badfinger's 1971 hit. And, as reports suggested earlier this week, a bunch of people bought the song that very night. Nielsen SoundScan says more than 5,300 digital copies of the song were purchased Sunday night. For comparison's sake, the song sold 200 copies in the previous week, and had never moved more than 1,000 copies in a week . But even a really popular TV show can only do so much, and a song that came out four decades ago is still no match for people who were born a couple decades ago. "Baby Blue" has indeed vaulted onto iTunes top sales chart, but it's down at 27, well below multiple entries from Katy Perry and Miley Cyrus. Entertainment Weekly has a charming interview with Joey Mulland, Badfinger's sole surviving member (who won't see a big check from the sales, but presumably will sell more concert tickets in venues like Panama City, Fla.). The New Yorker's Ben Greenman has a very smart piece about the way Very Important TV Shows use pop music these days.

Stuck with a frozen bidpage also
AUTHOR: nancy - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Monday, November 05, 2012POSTED: Monday, November 05, 2012
Each time this happens DD employee or CEO leave the same rebutal here on Ripoff. A forum type of appology about technical difficultys. As they make money and we get ripped of there have been no improvements in the bidpages at all. Starts and stutters, and many freezes when it gets down to the last 10 seconds I have found .
If there are prroblems with the website the best thing to do is shut it down, fix the problems and then open up the website when things are not freezing, skipping numbers a the count down, and breaking down.
This website should not be in operation if it is not capeable of following the rules like we as consumers must do. Pay it fair as we must (some dont).
Waiting for a reply to the 3 or 4 messages I sent after this happened and then I will come back and reply here again as to what the email messages had to say.....
When I sent my complaint to DD I stated I would refuse to get my bids back and demand the product as my intentions were to keep bids in BB until I won. This product sold at resonable price in other bid times as I looked it up and figured it out at the top dollar over the top dollar bid ever made.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Sunday Game Thread: Cubs (5-11) v. Brewers (8-8)
The Brewers go for the series sweep, their 7th win in a row overall, and their 17th win in the last 22 meetings with the Cubs.
Is that depressing enough for you?
Cubs v. Wily Peralta (0-1, 6.19; pitched well but took an ND in 4/9 game at Wrigley which the Cubs eventually won against the Brewer bullpen): DeJesus 8, Castro 6, Rizzo 3, Soriano 7, Schierholtz 9, Castillo 2, Valbuena 5, Barney 4, Feldman 1.
Brewers v. Scott Feldman (0-2, 6.00; pitching for the first time since a loss to the Giants 10 days ago): Aoki 9, Segura 6, Braun 7, Weeks 4, Maldonado 2, Gonzalez 3, Gomez 8, Betancourt 5, Peralta 1.

So, are we back to having a
So, are we back to having a manager who semi-bashes the most talented and valuable young players on the team and makes empty threats about calling up the totally non-existent AAA reserves? Because I'm opposed to that.
Why isn't the answer to questions about Castro's defense always simply, "We're working together with him daily to help him perform as well as he possibly can in every area of the game. He's still a very young player, but we'll see more payoffs to his consistent hard work soon." ? Then if you want to yell at him and scare him because you think that will motivate him (I'm skeptical, but OK), do that in private in the manager's office when there are no reporters admitted.
It might be different if Baez were rocking AAA or AA and could realistically put pressure on Castro, though if all else were as it is now that would only mean that either Castro or Baez would be manning 3B soon.
Isn't that what they have
Isn't that what they have been doing for the past two years?
Can't say I am really surprised with the frustration, but I am sure Dale regrets the comments.
If the Cubs decide to move Castro to second, is this something that can be done during the season, or are they better off waiting?
It's a dumb comment by Sveum.
It's a dumb comment by Sveum. What did he expect when he signed on with the Cubs? Help these kids grow instead of bashing them in the face. They're gonna send down Rizzo? Is that the threat? How idiotic is that? The guy has bungled a few ground balls in April and is off to a slow start but still leads the team in RBI. I expect Sveum to just do his job and work with the youngsters. When he proves his managerial mettle he can go work on a club with established veterans who don't screw up as much.
This is a tough thing. The
This is a tough thing. The kid has been here full time since 2010. He's had 27, 29, and 27 errors in the last three years. Arguably THE most important position. MOST players show improvement. He does not. He's got 4 errors so far, as well as several mis-plays that were not scored errors. On a team where ANY mistake is too much. For $60MM.No doubt Castro will break the 30-error plateau this year. And - he has demonstrated, O & B, it doesn't matter what Month of the year it is. Stop with the excuses.
IMO, he is playing out of position. But, unfortunately, this will not get addressed this year.
OR - I also believe it is not an impossibility that Theo will trade him for "his" kind of players - including young pitching.
He can hit, which is great, but at his position you need more than that.
I really don't have an
I really don't have an objection to the frustration. I just think it's very unprofessional to call out any of your players in public. I see no reason to do that in any situation. All player and team issues should be addressed behind closed doors. As the manager, it's part of your job to keep up your professionalism every day even though the press is constantly hounding you (and everyone else) for something juicier.
I, too, would like to see Castro take more strides defensively. And I too wonder if he won't end up at 2nd base should another Cub prospect emerge as a better defensive shortstop, or should the Cubs have the opportunity to acquire a short stop in a favorable transaction. It's hardly pressing, though, considering the Cubs are going to suck big time either way. Without the carrot of the postseason, I don't see a reason do anything but keep working with him to see if he can improve. 23 is still young, even if he's going on his 4th year of MLB time.
The only reason I can think
The only reason I can think of is he would have better trade value if he could show the ability to play a defensive position at an acceptable major league level. Maybe that's second or third.
But your points are correct, Dale's comments were silly (and I am sure he regrets them) and there is no pressing need to move Castro now.
After reading your guy's
After reading your guy's posts again, it is an excellent point that we all want to be yelled at by our managers with the door closed in their offices.
I can't imagine, however, my current manager trying to manage multi-millionaires that have made the same mistakes on the job, relentlessly, for 3+ years.
It is a unique position and I get that Sveum is deserving more. Maybe he should just do this out of the press.
I'd say if we're going to
I'd say if we're going to look at it from that point, they were hasty in giving such a large contract so soon to a guy who still is a bit shaky out there. The mistakes Castro makes are often just dumb things that suggest a lack of concentration. That is where Sveum comes in. He should be making him take grounders till his hands hurt every day, not bashing him in the press, and honestly, maybe having him looked at for ADHD or even a 420 issue, or something, since the problem really seems to have something to do with him being a bit of a spacey dude, as we called them when I was young.
It's not just Castro, Rizzo was also the target of Sveum's whining, and it's just a dumb way to go. Sveum got hired to manage a young team. He needs to suck it up and manage them, and not go to the press with his complaints about their flaws.
Is "having potential" all it
Is "having potential" all it takes to play in the big leagues?
For the Chicago Cubs, apparently that's all it takes. This isn't little league, it's the big leagues. Players are expected to already know how to catch and throw the ball and do it reliably. Batting average.. meh, he can go hit a 400 average in Iowa for all I care. The thing about baseball is you have to catch and throw the ball.
Normally, I'm not terribly concerned about a manager riding a player, even publicly (if riding him privately doesn't work), but for the Cubs, it's different. Sveum must realize how quickly and how dramatically the fans can turn on a player like Castro because of poor play and he'll have to balance that along with all the other stuff he deals with.
One other problem I have with the comment is this- of all the things to complain about, shitty pitching, shitty bullpen, shitty everything, why single out Castro? Yes, Castro is a shitty defender, but let's not single him out. It's a shit storm.
Appel or Gray?
Appel or Gray?
Gray. But I'll take Appel if
Gray. But I'll take Appel if Houston takes Gray.
The other thing I am dismayed
The other thing I am dismayed about is this "Cubs Way" bullshit.
The EXACT negative things that move the team in the correct direction are still occurring at the same frequency as they have been.Fielding, OBP, RISP failures.
One thing that just burns me where the win margin is microscopic for the Cubs, is the Cubs' pitcher just being able to field their position or do "usual things" to save them from needless arm-wear and losses. Feldman is a case in point for TWO of his three starts! Just wait 'til Garza comes back. Even Samarj. fucked up so far. I mean for fuck's sake - they have been involved with baseball since grade school. And they are learning the Cubs'Way....Oh wait...
I don't know how the minor
I don't know how the minor league players have looked from a fundamentals angle, but that is where you will probably start seeing some improvement with this whole Cubs Way thing. If I remember right, AZ Phil was reporting on some impressive walk numbers among the lower level guys. So if that is continuing, and the error rates are down, and the general play on the field at the lower levels is high, then things may improve. Right now, the major league play is crap, and, sorry to say, that reflects directly on Sveum, whether he likes it or not. I obviously don't know a damn thing about managing a team, so I don't know where it happens when I see a team play good fundamental baseball, but I do see it, almost every time I see another team not named the Cubs play. Does it happen because of good spring training routines? Or is it part of the daily routine every day before a game? I have no idea. Whatever it is, Sveum has not accomplished his task of getting a team out there with solid fundamentals, at least not yet. It's early, but so far, this is a very bad baseball team. Sveum himself said it was very important that they start the year off well. Whoops. What's plan B?
When a team is at the top of the charts two years in a row for errors, this is a problem with the manager. Although, to be fair, it's obviously really early in the year. These guys have all played the game long enough that their skill level at fielding their positions should all be about the same, aside from the standouts. I look at a guy like Rizzo and think to myself that he looks like a natural out there sometimes, and then he just nearly does a somersault as he bounds about making a bone head play. It's baffling.
Hell, E-Man, Garza alone is going to double the Cubs's errors. So it's not looking to get any better anytime soon.
The Cubs way, I believe, is
The Cubs way, I believe, is about how the organization is planning to develop their farm system. What some are forgetting is that Castro was already in the big leagues when Theo took over. I don't think it was ever really an option to send him back down. That said, I don't think Theo would have promoted Castro when Hendry did. He likely would have spent more time in the minors refining his approach and defense. He's been rewarded for doing what the previous regime wanted, and that's hitting the ball without regard for a specific approach or stellar defense. Maybe he wouldn't have come out any different under Theo's direction, but I think it's a mistake to blame the problems of the current Cubs on the failure of the Cub Way
I agree with that pretty much
I agree with that pretty much but Theo did give Castro the mega contract. I think a lot of people agreed with his doing it. I know I did - seemed smart to wrap him up ASAP, given his age and early numbers. I still think he's really not at his ceiling yet, and one of the reasons the club hasn't made a lot of noise about moving him from short is that he has made some pretty amazing plays from deep in the hole. My biggest complaint about all this is Sveum and his public badgering of players. I've managed a lot of people and I would never consider going Glengarry Glen Ross all over them in a meeting if they have some kind of performance issues. Doors have hinges on them for a reason.
$42M over 6 years for a young
$42M over 6 years for a young player's age 23-28 seasons? Even with the player-friendly team option for age 29, it's not a "mega contract" ... it's a hell of a good bargain. All that contract says about Castro is that the Cubs think he's a solid MLB player (doesn't take a genius to figure that one out). He got $78 million less guaranteed dollars than Elvis Andrus did on his extension.
You stop bringing logic into
You stop bringing logic into this. Next you're gonna tell us that Theo was very explicit that the Cubs were going to work from the bottom up, teaching all the young kids the Cubs way and then spending money on FAs. And that he never promised we were going to compete these first years.
I tell you what, a GM telling us his plan and then actually working on it. What is this world coming too.

Go complain about something else, like, "they never play good against the good teams", or some other shit.
Addy really has trouble breaking through .250 BA -- after his hot streak got him to .251, he has gone 1-for-17.
Thank goodness for Jansen's 2 WP on Friday -- otherwise this would have been a sweep.
There seems to be a direct correlation with overconfidence in the Cubs offense against mediocre/young pitchers and really poor offense against mediocre/young pitchers. So, let's fear the Pirate pitchers!
Rizzo due for a power surge -- one HR in August so far. He truly does hit them in bunches.
Sometimes I'm not as supportive of Cahill as maybe I should be. There, I said it.
Rough 8th inning all around -- HBP, Cahill error, Javy's poor decision.
Oh well - given that the Cubs didn't look like they were going to score, it's better to lose in 9 innings, save the bullpen and get changed for the PJ trip home.
Baez still learning
heyward with his 3rd multi-hit game since the all-star break (all in august)...2nd in the past 3 games during his 7 game hitting streak.
he's gone from flirting with a sub-.300 ob% to nearing .310 ob% in 3 games (1 game was just a 1 for 1 pinch hit appearance). all 5 hits in the past 3 games have come in a row...neat.
stewart with 7Ks through 3ip...of course.
that 10-13 mph difference in his fastball/change is working today...and they're swinging at his crappy slider.
brock stewart...steven brault...fun times for the cubs hitters vs allegedly competitive teams...maybe.
Maddon would have started three lefties against the Dodgers, Montgomery, Zastryzny and Lester, except that he doesn't have the juice to do that. No manager does. Maddon has a boss, Epstein (and probably Hoyer, too), who gave him a starting rotation of five guys including Hammel. Maddon was asked yesterday about the starting group for next year and basically said, Not my call, that's why I drive away in my RV in the summer and occasionally check in, etc.
video of Maddon.
always nice that he actually tries to honestly answer questions. Does mention that he wanted to give Zastr? a chance in a meaningful spot rather than a mop-up role.
from Muskat:
#Cubs Maddon: "I'm not going to make up an excuse for why I did what I did. It has nothing to do with lack of confidence" ... "It was the right thing to do today based on what I saw, what their lineup looked like and Rob Z.'s availability." #Cubs
Hammel not particularly understanding of getting pulled out...as he should. Be curious what Maddon had to say. All I can think of is is keeping arms fresh and maybe wanting to see if Zastr? is worth considering for the playoffs and how he'd do against the Dodgers.
great defense
Heyward, Russell, Baez, Bryant, Ross in particular...although Bryant's a bit hard to judge with all the positions.
Fowler and Rizzo in the top half of the NL for their positions as well (per fangraphs)...Zobrist right at the halfway cutoff for 2b in the NL.
I'm sure some luck is involved too, but the Cubs and Maddon knew what they were doing.

Because cuffing jeans can sometimes make an already petite figure look shorter and wider, you want to go for a pair that's slightly tapered at the hem to make you look longer and leaner. Try to avoid anything too wide at the bottom, and a good tailor is always a short girl's BFF.
Wear it with a silk tank like this one Zero+Maria Cornejo Ikta Printed Stretch-Silk Tank and a hot pair of suede sandals, like these.

How the Cookie's Calories Crumble
Weight-gain and dieting math have been upended by a series of recent studies that call into question a longstanding rule of thumb, namely that consuming or cutting 3,500 calories leads to a gain or loss of one pound. This rule of thumb works well in the short term, and with small shifts in weight, but as I write in my print column this week, the rule breaks down over long periods, because as a person's weight changes, so does the body's energy needs.
"That equation might work very well to understand weight change over a few months," pediatrician David Ludwig, director of the Optimal Weight for Life Program at Children's Hospital in Boston, said of the 3,500-calorie rule. "It works much less well over a few years. And it's meaningless over a decade."
Martijn Katan, a nutrition scientist at Amsterdam's VU University and co-author with Ludwig of a recent paper on the new nutrition math, compares the dynamics to that of a jet fighter. Fill its fuel tank halfway, and it will fly more than half the distance it would have with a full tank, because there is less weight to support. "That's what happens with humans, too," Katan said. Dieting "becomes a self-defeating process," as a lighter frame requires less energy and therefore fewer calories to support it.
This revision to obesity orthodoxy affects estimates of how much health policy can reverse rising obesity rates. New York City's health department forecast big things from the introduction of calorie counts on chain restaurants' posted menus, based on the 3,500 calorie rule; those calorie counts now are going nationwide. So did a study of the same potential policy change by the County of Los Angeles's public-health department. "If the body adapts in a way that minimizes the impact of reduced calorie intake, certainly then the effect on weight would be reduced," said Paul Simon, director of the county's division of chronic disease and injury prevention.
Efforts to replace the rule of thumb have been hampered by the lack of a simple rule to replace it, though Kevin Hall, a biophysicist with the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, a part of the federal National Institutes of Health, said that, roughly, a 10-calorie reduction in daily dietary intake will lead to a pound of weight lost over a lifetime.
Hall is continually refining his model. His effort is complicated by weaknesses in studies that have sought to attribute weight changes to calorie intake. "It's been very difficult to get good measurements over long periods of time of how people eat as body weight changes," Hall said.
Long-term studies generally must rely on only occasional direct observations of eating, or on often-unreliable food diaries. Short-term studies can isolate volunteers in controlled laboratories to get accurate calorie numbers and measure excreted air or urine to estimate how many calories are being burned. But these studies — called feeding studies when intended to study weight gain — haven't lasted long enough to observe weight gain completely level off, and ethical considerations preclude overfeeding at a level anywhere near one high-profile proposed self-experiment.
That's the attempt by a New Jersey woman to increase her weight from 604 pounds to 1,000 pounds and make the record books (the heaviest woman on record, Rosalie Bradford, reached 1,200 pounds in 1987). The folks at Guinness World Records currently are considering Donna Simpson's claim to be the world's heaviest mother. Such weight claims must be validated by medical records to make the book. "Guinness World Records no longer monitors heaviest pet records as we do not wish to encourage owners to overfeed their pets for a record," a Guinness spokeswoman said. So why risk encouraging people to overfeed themselves in search of records? "These heaviest records exist and we are impartially reporting on some of the extreme superlative records of the world," she said.
Recent studies on the possible impact of proposed soda taxes demonstrate that a consensus on calorie math hasn't yet been struck. A paper last year in the New England Journal of Medicine based an estimate of two pounds lost per year per person, due to higher soda prices, on the 3,500-calorie rule of thumb. And a paper last month in the Archives of Internal Medicine reported that an 18% soda tax would lead to a 56-calorie reduction in the average adult's diet, and therefore five pounds lost per person per year — roughly what the 3,500-calorie conversion suggests. Similar figures appeared in a press release about the study issued by the University of North Carolina, where co-author Barry Popkin directs the Interdisciplinary Obesity Program, and in media accounts of the study. Popkin said that figure overstates weight loss, and plans to seek a correction in the journal.
The new math suggests that small measures may not suffice to combat obesity. "If we're trying to reverse obesity, then we have a substantial challenge in front of us," said Nancy F. Butte, professor of pediatrics at Baylor College of Medicine, and author of a recent paper on ties between calorie shifts and weight gain.
That adds to the extant challenge created by dieters' tendency to relax their restrictions over time. "People don't correct for the reduction in energy expenditure" as they lose weight, said Eric Doucet, professor in the faculty of health sciences at the University of Ottawa. "People also tend to be less compliant with their restrictions."
"In one sense it may be discouraging — it is going to require a much larger shift in calories to prevent obesity, let alone treat it," Ludwig said. "It's also good news, because the argument that the obesity epidemic can be attributed to small calorie imbalances — 50 to 100 calories per day over time — places all of the blame for the epidemic on the individual. If all you had to do was walk an extra mile a day, or drink one less soda a day, one could fairly say that the obesity epidemic is attributable to personal failure. But if the calorie imbalance is 10 times that, then we can no longer place responsibility exclusively on the individual.
Further reading: In blog posts last month, Tara Parker-Pope of the New York Times and Hall's colleague Carson Chow wrote about the new math of dieting.

Area law enforcement officers are participating in the "More Cops More Stops" campaign this weekend, so drivers should expect extra patrols and possibly even some driver safety checkpoints.
The campaign began Friday and continues through Aug. 4.
In an effort to save lives, Shawnee police, Pottawatomie County sheriff's deputies, along with tribal police and state troopers, will watch for those driving while drunk, not using seat belts or violating basic safety laws.
"We'll be concentrating on the safety corridors and other parts of the county," said Pottawatomie County Undersheriff Travis Palmer.
Safety corridor areas in Pottawatomie County include SH 18 north of Interstate 40, U.S. 177 through Tecumseh, along with I-40 from Shawnee to McLoud.
The campaign and its efforts are designed to help save lives. In 2011, more than 500 passenger vehicle occupants died in traffic crashes in Oklahoma. More than half of were not wearing seat belts at the time of the accident that claimed their life.
Palmer said area motorists are reminded to buckle up and watch their speeds as their will be roving patrols as checkpoints.
Deputies are planning more emphasis today and again on Aug. 2, he said.
Shawnee police will participate in the efforts throughout the campaign.
During a recent routine patrol of a safety corridor, Shawnee officers stopped a driver that was speeding 14 mph over limit. The vehicle had no license plate, the driver's license was under suspension and police found drugs in the vehicle.

i bought a couch about in may. 2007 and i financed this big baby till 2012. Awesome idea because the couch i am buying is bulletproof so i am told. my saleswoman lisa livermore cannot stress enough to me that this couch is the best fiber and can also withstand anything.
she said and i quote" you could sit on this couch with a screwdriver in your pocket and tear it open and it will be covered" wow i said to myself that is for me because i work construction and rough stuff happenes. i even bought 2 more years of this awesome warranty.
i sign with my wife and we are sold. great deal 2200 dollars for 5 years and if you miss 1 single payment by as much as 2 hours do you then get all the interest slapped on that baby. lucky for us we always pay on time. sorry i mean early. we always pay early.
so come to find out about 2 months ago we spot some tiny holes in the sides of the cushion. well our home is always clean and spottless. this stands out to my wife because this couch is in her name. she is now upset. so am i.
we call roomstore. i was over confident that i was going to save the day for my wife when i called because as you remember she said bulletproof. that baby is covered for everything and more.
the saleslady no longer works there. ok no big deal because as you see in your system roomstore, i am in there and have a warrenty i said. that doesnt cover holes in the fabric she said. now i am at a loss for words. i seen it coming. i was too trusting once more to my dismay. i didnt read the contract. the lady was so nice and friendly i didnt see a need. she was good.
i asked them if they could at least schedule us to make sure that it is us that was responsible for the holes. they told me that they would have a company get ahold of us in a couple of days. cool i said
sure didnt call if thats what your thinkin. Awesome let me stop my day at work and get on the phone with roomstore again because dont you guys remember. those hours for me are my income. dont you want your money.
remember that this story i am telling you has happened from about october till right now here tonight.
customer service tells me this time i call that if the lady in the store told me that holes were covered then it is the stores managers problem. he is now responsible. remember when i said she did not work there anymore, well that statement now hit me like a ton of bricks. there goes my only witness or proof not that she would have admitted it now anyway.
by the way i just scheduled my 2nd appointment to have someone look at the couch. ok they say we will set one up and call you in a couple of days. well i know you would have said no i want it now i am sick and tired of the runaround. but i am really patient and whatever.
they didnt call and at this point if you think they are gonna quit reading this because you are not getting me. i want only a trained couch fabric inspector at this point because i want to make sure it is us. store manager tells me when i call him that he cant help me because she no longer works there and they dont cover holes.
ok i will call customer service again why not. they schedule me another appointment. this being the third and no one showed up the first 2. cool we are ready please finally our savior he will find out he does this for a living.
it took him seconds to tell us that the fabric starch that they put on our wonderful microfiber couch becomes almost glue like in the heat and when you sit on a couch after this then the fabric tears ever so slightly.
then you remember how i told you that it was delivered in may. a little warm in those storage shed the expert tells me. happenes all the time i will order you 3 new cushions pronto and i will even come out and install them on the cushions for us at no extra charge.
finally a man of his d**n word. i liked him . he was from a small town like me. real look you in the eyes and tell the truth types. cool my wife is now happy and so am i. it was not us you see after all this time. finally he says as leaving. roomstorewill bein touch in no later than 3 daysand you are going to receive the new cushions after that.
called the roomstore today. it has been another 2 weeks and guess this ...no paperwork on their end. awesome i said remember thisis approximately 13 calls at this point. 30 dollars an hour . multiplied by 15 minutes minimum for the calls because of the ungodly amount of hold time. and i would say that the roomstore has cost me 112.00 dollars. .
i know its funny though dont forget 2 months of wondering and complaining added to our lives. the fact that we need this couch for a while and to last till we can at least pay the d**n thing off. i now hate the roomstore and everything it stands for. I do not blame the kids answering my calls and making 7 dollars an hour to do it. that is my people. the blue collar. i wonder however what the square footage of the owners house is compared to my mobile home....

Think about it... the right tackle market is ridiculously slow right now. Sebastian Vollmer, who many consider the premiere right tackle in the NFL, just signed for 4 years $6.75 per and only $8.25 guaranteed. Andre Smith is also still on the market. Meanwhile, Jake Long, who is not nearly as good a LT as Vollmer is a RT, got 4 years $9 mil per and $16 mil guaranteed. Hell, Jermon Bushrod, who you may remember from getting bullrushed and climbed over by Justin Smith, who also isn't even in the same zip code as Jake Long as a LT, got $7.2 mil per $17.7 mil guaranteed. I think we need to strike while the market is cold.
The only thing I could possibly see throwing a wrench into this idea is the deal the Colts gave Gosder Cherilus. He got way overpaid... even though he's a solid RT.

AUGUSTA, Ga.---A suspicious package was found earlier this afternoon at the office of prominent local businessman and former Board of Regents chairman Tim Shelnut.
The Richmond County bomb squad, K-9 unit, and fire crews were called to the scene at about 1:30 this afternoon. Fire crews tell us a woman in Mr. Shelnut's office opened the package to find a VHS tape that had been taken apart and then taped back together. When she shook it, it rattled, so she took it back outside.
Crews cleared the scene at that time, and the suspicious package was picked up by the robot and has been transported to the Richmond County training range in Blythe to be detonated.

Tim Norris likes things that are simple and stories that are complex. In addition to just being human, he is also a serial creative entrepreneur, an award winning designer, a minimalist furniture maker, and sought-after data artist. Tim has lived in four countries and ten cities. This is partially why a lot of his work has to do with the subject of "place." As a creative person, Norris creates art for people and places. Most of his work looks at places in a way that is simple and accessible for people. Norris is interested in the democratization of art and design. The materials he works with are paper, plywood, ink, and open source and public domain data. He uses a combination of robots and hand craft to make things. What Norris does and how he does it is constantly evolving although what doesn't change is his vision to see creativity unleashed in communities in a way that empowers people. Creativity for the people, by the people.

Hey Otto,
I've installed your Plugin and it works well except with one of my other plugins: Google-Maps-GPX-Viewer
I contacted the developer, told him about my problem and he wrote that "another" plugin creates masses of metas which destroy the of the plugin parsed content.
Usually the plugin should show up a google map created automatically from a GPX-File on my server implemented into my article. But the boxes where the maps should show up stay grey.
You can have a look at one of these articles here: http://www.abenteuersuechtig.de/index.php/motorradfahren-in-der-schweiz/
Thanks in advance.

I am looking for a quotes plugin that allows me to post my entire library of quotes in a fancy, nice looking way. I am NOT looking for a sidebar widget. I have one of those that does random quotes. I want something that will work on a page full of quotes, to make it look more than just a page of quotes.
Thank you in advance :)

Weak convergence in the functional autoregressive model
The functional autoregressive model is a Markov model taylored for data of functional nature. It revealed fruitful when attempting to model samples of dependent random curves and has been widely studied along the past few years. This article aims at completing the theoretical study of the model by addressing the issue of weak convergence for estimates from the model. The main difficulties stem from an underlying inverse problem as well as from dependence between the data. Traditional facts about weak convergence in non-parametric models appear: the normalizing sequence is not an , a bias term appears. Several original features of the functional framework are pointed out.

OpenWetWare:Steering committee next meeting archive
From OpenWetWare
Revision as of 04:08, 15 September 2006 by Jason R. Kelly (Talk | contribs)
9/14/06 Meeting
- Jasonk 17:23, 4 September 2006 (EDT): Make it easy to make an OWW page compliant with postgenomic so it can get aggregated there.
- Jasonk 17:28, 4 September 2006 (EDT): Statistics and survey guru. Might want to have someone who keeps an eye on trends on the site. this could range from surveys of people are using the site as was suggested previously, to looking over site analytics (which will come with new hosting service), or to just tracking site statistics (number of users, number of labs, etc). This sort of information could help the SC make more informed decisions.
- Reshma 10:12, 5 September 2006 (EDT): I've been trying to work on a tutorial on how to host courses on OWW. Feedback/help welcome.
- Jasonk 07:59, 7 September 2006 (EDT): Should we have an officially sanctioned forum area? Could be a stopgap until the "liquid threads" or whatever gets included in mediawiki...
- Reshma 08:27, 7 September 2006 (EDT): There's Questions and Answers for research-questions and the Community portal for OpenWetWare questions. Do we need more than that?
- Jasonk 08:56, 7 September 2006 (EDT): Well, this isn't a new topic or anything, but the having discussions is facilitated by threads (and stuff like 'post reply' button, etc). If we think the Mediawiki implementation is going to take to too long, we may consider getting some forum software to run on the site (it wouldn't have to perfectly integrate with the wiki for the short term) - i think hacing a "latest forum discussions" box similar to the one on the front page of protocols online would help OWW be a place to post your general biology questions. It's a good question why a Q&A section hasn't taken off on OWW, it may just be the community is too small, or it could be that the technical hurdles are too high.
- Jasonk 08:59, 7 September 2006 (EDT):Firm up short term (6 month) SC goals
- Jasonk 10:31, 10 September 2006 (EDT):SciFoo report
- Should we make (sections of) OWW postgenomic compatible?
