General Message Board
I'm in a 12 team H2H league:
My team is running 11th in a tightly close race, I need some major help on what to do either trading players for who, adding people, dropping people. I want this team to be a contender when September rolls around, any ideas?
Your help would be VERY appreciative :)Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
the first thing to look at when monitoring your teams progress is balance... look at which stats you keep losing in, and that should give you a clue as to where you need help... right now im seeing SB 1-8-1, W 1-6-3, K 2-7-1
Just by looking at your pitching staff I could tell that you were lacking in K's, as the only guy that can strike guys out is kershaw. I'm not a huge believer in Jesse Litsch to be honest, and I watch almost every Jays game. He's faced some weak lineups, and I think he is due for some corrections in his W's, and ERA.
I would keep an eye on Micah Owings. I owned him this year, and when he's on his game, he is money, giving you 1K/inn, plenty of W's, along with about a 3.4 ERA and a 1.15 WHIP. However, if you look at last year's stats, he had one month where he had an ERA of over 9, which would kill your fantasy team for that month. That has been the case this year as well, as none of his bad outings have been isolated: 2 bad outings ended April going into May, and 3 bad outings ended May going into June. Once Owings strings a couple of good starts together, he will be a stud.
If you want a quick improvement in W's with K potential, look to two Boston starters, Masterson and Colon, who will definitely get wins with Boston's good bullpen, and great lineup. If you want to try a sleeper, you could add Kuroda, who just K'd 11 in his last start, and LA has a very good lineup and bullpen as well, so there is W potential there.
I would have suggested Taveras to help you with SBs, but your team seems decent in that category already, with Pierre, Rollins and Markakis, so I don't think you need a SB specialist. An all-round player that steals some bases would probably do you some good, replacing david murphy's fluke month of May (I doubt that he's a keeper). I would take a look at Lastings Milledge, he's on a 6-game hitting streak and has 25-SB potential, but he has been underperforming this year i think. If he starts hitting, which he should soon, he is a very good all-round player so he will contribute in all categories, including a 20-25 SB pace, making him well worth the add if you think that he has found his stroke. If you don't care about BA, Mike Cameron would be a good fit as well, with his 20-20 potential. And Delmon Young will be a better version of Milledge if he turns it around, but he has shown no signs of breaking out of his slump.
I hope that helps. Good luck. Your league is very competitive so FA additions can be a bit difficult.

sry i play roto, and I wasn't sure about strategy, but the only way to get K's and W's while keeping your ERA and WHIP down is to load up on SPs from the FA pool that are hot, while keeping your RPs. Trading for a stud starter will be counterproductive, because their W's and K's will have 0 support on your staff, since you play so many RPs, and have no big name SPs. I still think getting an all-round player to replace murphy is a good idea though, because your offense is already fairly solid in most areas (you don't wanna compromise your HR's and RBI's for SB's with taveras).
OK, is there any other suggestions on what I should do?
Keep them coming, the more opinions the better I can get back into this.
You play in a shitty league. But why have all those closers? I am sure that 5 saves will win you most weeks. I bet there is weeks you have like 10. You are getting swallowed up on the OBP and steals too I bet. Good players dont always win H2H you have to see where you are lacking and pick up someone to help. Get rid of those relievers damn trade their ass.

The problem is your pitching.... your in a bit of a conundrum. Your starting pitching is not good. But you have some real solid middle men and closers. The problem to me is that despite your bad starting pitching you are attempting to be good at all pitching categories and its causing you to shoot yourself in the foot.
You only have 5 pitching categories W, Ks, ERA, WHIP and SVs.
W and K are for starters and no surprise you lose more often than not.
You do very well in SVs but you are in the middle of the pack in WHIP and ERA... WHY? Because of your crappy starters and a few avg releivers. Personnally, I would try and become lights out in SVs, WHIP and ERA. How would I do that...Run with 5 pitchers - Rivieria, Marmol, Percival Valarde and Wilson. If you only played them you lose in W and K (but u already are) but your WHIP and ERA would skyrocket.
But what to do with tradeable guys like Litsh, Danks and Colon -Trade them trade in a package with you position players to upgrade areas of need and get better overall position players.
If you can do that your hitting categories will all improve making you competitve in all of those catgories and you should be lights out in 3 of the 5 pitching categories.
FYI I would drop kershaw and rasner asap if you can trade tehm they are killing your numbers.

But what about picking up Mussina for Rasner, is that a good choice are is this one of my "below average" starters?
You could use some starting pitching
You're not putting active players on your day-to-day roster.
Example ... today you have Brian Wilson (closer) on the bench along with Clayton Kershaw (flagged as a starter for today).
Your closers shouldn't really ever sit. You've got 5 possible spots to play them (RP, RP, P, P, P) and still have 2 SP slots for starters, so, again ... unless you've got 3 starters going, they should be in the lineup every day.
Similarly, if you have to have Kershaw on the roster at all ... why is he on the bench -today-?
Going back a couple weeks to when Jimmy Rollins was injured, I don't see another shortstop rostered, so were you spotting your competition an extra batter?
You're only a couple games out of the championship playoff bracket (top 6) ... manage your team.
You also have a lot of 4th and 5th starter types pitching for you. This is a small league, there's still plenty of usable depth in the free agent pool. Maybe ask yourself, 'Is this guy even the best pitcher on his team?' before having him blow up your ERA and WHIP for 3 strikeouts and a loss.
Look to improve your least valuable 2-3 starters through free agency ... look to upgrade Morneau and Pena through trade.
Swagger Jackin' Jackson Swagger Jackin' Jackson Jun 10, 2008 3:47 AM Flag
Ok first off you don't need a relief pitcher in Marmol since you have some good closers plus Percival is coming back meaning drop Marmol for Mussina and drop rasner for Garrett Olson or Homer Bailey (Did good against a ace like Hamels). Next get your waiver position on Rowand and drop Votto for him. I would also waive Kendrick (Looks like he is not 100% based on his performance lately) for Polanco who is heating up and can give you Run/Aver. Now looking at it I would also probably waive Danks (Maybe Kershaw since he isn't ready for the bigs yet) and pick up Scott Olsen. You know what waive Kershaw and get Galarraga... He will start for the rest of the season guarenteed with Bonderman gone for the season plus D-Train sucks as well. You also got Masterson who I personally like better than Colon. Come on dude work with what you got so you can win... Forget names because people like Quentin, ludwick, Ellsbury, Church (He was a steal regardless of DL stint), Volquez, exc. In order to win you have to take chances. Make these moves I told you and you should be good to go. Just don't hesitate like you did with not picking up Pierzynski because other dudes in your league won't.

Record Store Day's big Black Friday sale: Metallica, Nas, Red Hot Chili Peppers
Record Store Day is a mecca for music fans. The bi-annual event offers limited-edition, often highly collectable releases on the third Saturday in April and on Black Friday, Nov. 29 (the day after Thanksgiving). Record Store Day today announced the gems that will be available at its Black Friday sale this year. Here's the entire list.
The vinyl and CD releases range from reissues and rarities to new albums exclusive to Record Store Day. We're coveting a "Black on Black" edition of Queens of the Stone Age's "...Like Clockwork," a 7-inch of Tegan and Sara's "Guilty As Charged/I Run Empty" EP, and a 2013 mix of Nirvana's classic "In Utero." The list also includes: Red Hot Chili Peppers, Bob Dylan, The Flaming Lips, Metallica, Atlas Genius, Elvis Costello and The Roots, Nas, Jack Johnson, Band of Horses, Dave Matthews Band and more.
Although the April event has been happening since 2008, this year's Black Friday festivities will only be the third in the event's history, making it a little easier to score releases by your favorite artists. Check Record Store Day's website for a list of participating stores and get there early to beat the crowds.
At April's Record Store Day, serious collectors lined up for the few Dave Matthews Band releases allotted to each store; the band is considered one of the most highly collectable at the event. Other top selling releases in April included: The White Stripes' 10-year anniversary vinyl edition of "Elephant"; an Iggy Pop & The Stooges/Black Keys 7-inch; and Mumford and Sons' "Live at Bull Moose."

MSI GTX560Ti 448 Core Review
Up Close
Published: 29th November 2011 | Source: MSI | Price: £251.99 |
Up Close
Considering that the big selling point of this remodelling of the successful GTX560Ti is the 448 Cores part, it's surprising to see it take up so little space on the box. We know that the 448 is a very limited run of cards, but if you've got to make new packaging for a product that is, at first glance, the same, then shout louder.
Unlike the Gigabyte triple-fan arrangement the MSI Twin Frozr III cooler fits much more snugly to the 448, with no unsightly overhangs. We've often remarked how much we like this cooler when used on midrange cards and it has lost none of its charm.
Whereas the Gigabyte is on a blue PCB, the MSI comes on a brown one. An odd colour choice we have to confess. We don't know many people who go "mmm brown".
Further demonstrating the difference between the Gigabyte and MSI cards, the MSI still retains the two 6pin power arrangement, but only has an HDMI and two DVIs.

just buy a 570, please tell me what is Nvidia doing these days
That question needs to be directed at MSI and Gigabyte . Zotac have released a 560TI 448 as well.
That question is definietly one for Nvidia.Quote
Nvidia make the cards the different manufactures just buy them from Nvidia, slap an after market cooler on them and sometimes a custom PCB.
That question is definietly one for Nvidia.
Ok . I just thought that the companies propose the ideas to Nvidia so they can make more money.
just wanted to know why TTL just stopped at 800 Mhz cuz from what i saw on the hardwarecanucks review
they were able to get another 50-80 mhz on the default voltage and it was rock-stable, not to mention they said they could get up to 925Mhz with some tweaking ...
another lucky draw of the lottery?Quote
Nvidia make the GPUs and make money from Gigabyte, MSI etc and they make their money from releasing different versions of the cards with their own custom PCB or cooler.

Japan honors WWII veteran Terry Shima
At a special reception attended by a standing-room-only audience at the Japanese Ambassador's residence in Washington, D.C., on May 21, the Japanese government honored Laupahoehoe native Terry Shima, executive director emeritus of the Japanese America Veterans Association (JAVA).
Shima was presented The Order of the Rising Sun, Gold Rays with Rosette, by Ambassador Kenichiro Sasae. This honor was made in recognition of many years of significant contributions toward building strong relationships between Japan and the United States, and for his tireless work educating this generation on the Japanese American experience during World War II.
The award, given in the name of the emperor, is one of the highest honors bestowed upon a non-Japanese civilian, said an embassy spokesman.
Shima said he was accepting the award "on behalf of the volunteers of JAVA and the Nisei who fought in Europe and the Pacific."
More than 200 of Shima's family members, relatives, friends and associates were in attendance. The theme of the evening was his role as a citizen — both of the United States and as a citizen of the world.
Shima received high praise for his achievements from Congresswoman Doris Matsui (D-CA), Congresswoman Colleen Hanabusa (D-HI), Congressman Mark Meadows (R-NC), and former Secretary of Transportation and Commerce Norman Mineta. Letters from Sen. Mazie Hirono and the secretary of veterans affairs were read.
Other recipients of this award include actor George Takei and Floyd Mori, former national executive director of the Japanese American Citizens League (JACL).
Shima was born and raised in Laupahoehoe and is a veteran of the 442nd Regimental Combat Team in World War II, considered to be one of the most decorated units of its size in American military history. After being discharged from the Army in 1946, Shima attended Georgetown University School of Foreign Service and Graduate School, after which he served at the U.S. Forces Japan Headquarters and the U.S. Department of State, including the U.S. Embassy in Tokyo.
In February of this year, Shima was one of 18 selected from more thankl 6,000 nominations to receive the Presidential Citizens Medal, personally awarded by President Obama in a White House ceremony. He was specifically recognized "For strengthening the sacred trust between America and its veterans" and for energizing a program of preserving the oral and video recorded interviews of Japanese American servicemen who served in Europe and the Pacific during World War II, even while many of their families were relocated to internment camps at home." Upon receiving the White House award, Shima said he accepted the award on behalf of JAVA and the men who fought in Europe and the Pacific…to settle the question of loyalty once and for all…"
Becoming the executive director of the Japanese American Veterans Association (JAVA) in 2004, Shima was recognized for spearheading programs benefitting all Asian Pacific American veterans and their families. Recently retiring from his post, he remains head of JAVA's Education and Public Outreach Committee, which preserves the legacy of the World War II Nisei soldiers through providing presentations, talks, classroom teaching aids and panel discussions at education institutions, community organizations and government entities. He also assists the media in providing background information on the Japanese American experience during World War II and arranging interviews.
As JAVA executive director, Shima played a significant role in the National Veterans Network's effort to coordinate the arrangement and celebration of the 2011 Congressional Gold Medal Award to the 100th Battalion, the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, and the Military Intelligence Service. The award — the highest civilian honor the nation can bestow on an individual or organization — is intended to honor persons "who have performed an achievement that has an impact on American history and culture … in the recipient's field long after the achievement." It was presented with more than 350 veterans in attendance, many in wheelchairs, who traveled to Washington, D.C., for this event.

Skip to comments.Study: Chicago Prostitutes Say They're Forced to Service Police Officers for Free
Posted on 01/11/2008 9:22:24 PM PST by iowamark
Researchers have concluded in a yet-to-be published study of the economics of prostitution in Chicago that the women claim they were forced to service police officers, worked more on holidays and varied pricing based on race.
University of Chicago professor and "Freakonomics" author Steven D. Levitt and sociology professor Sudhir Venkatesh of Columbia University are the authors of the two-year study of street-level prostitution in Chicago's Roseland, Washington Park and Pullman neighborhoods. ...
Prostitutes taking part in the study who were paid $150 a week reported that about 3 percent of the sex acts they performed were "freebies" given to Chicago police officers to avoid arrest.
Police spokeswoman Monique Bond did not respond to requests for comment on the study's finding.
The study found full-time prostitutes made on average less than $20,000 a year....
The study also found white and Hispanic men were charged more, while blacks and repeat customers paid less....
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
This is a disingenuous headline. The whores did # PERCENT of their whoring with cops. Not NEARLY enough for such a headline.
Considering John Lott tore up Levitt in his book Freedomnomics, I place doubt on anything Levitt says.
Got to love the Union benefits.
This is very disturbing if true....the police should be better than this.
It gives new meaning to the term "undercover cop".
You must remember that this is Richie Daley's Chicago.
It's been going forever , everywhere .
Correction . It's been going on forever , everywhere .
It's FREE all right: FREE AIDS, FREE clap, FREE herpes, FREE Gonorrea...
I guess the streetwalkers in Chicago keep meticulous business records. Does the IRS consider that 3 percent completely deductible?
How come Obama didn't do anything to stop this, while he himself was in Chicago politics? Woops. He was part of the Machine. My bad. I forgot.
Another Leftist hit piece spewed by the WHORES at FOX.
This could be said of all city's and all police forces. They are forced to hire from the general public just like every other business. Sadly 2 or 3 cops can taint a whole force.
The study found full-time prostitutes made on average less than $20,000 a year.
Are we supposed to be surprised at this? Or feel sorry for them?
My give a cr@p meter must be broken. It's giving no readings.
tap, tap, tap,...
Nope, that's right. It's working....
What!?! Racism!!!! Then again may they all receive AIDS as change for engaging in this behavior.
Either you don't live in Chicago or you don't watch the news reports about the horrendous acts of our city's finest. They scare the s*@t out of me because they operate above the law, as does our mayor, city council and all of our other "elected" officials. This is no "hit" piece; this is true journalism of the like you won't find in the NYT or the Tribune. Where the hell are you coming from?
Haha, you posted it first. What discrimination!
Seriously, my guess is those guys are willing to pay more, and these, uh, "ladies" will take as much money as they can get.
3% sounds low to me.
Or "night sticks".
Street tax.
And the problem is...?
I'm shocked. Shocked I tell you.
Hookers giving freebies to cops. Who knew.
In other news, the earth is round.
"This could be said of all citys and all police forces. They are forced to hire from the general public just like every other business. Sadly 2 or 3 cops can taint a whole force."
Is there some "other" public besides the "general" public?
The "best" part of this "study" is that we are being asked to believe prostitutes (criminals) at their word, especially concerning smearing those who arrest them.
The $20,000 a year stat also shows that the ho's work about 4 hours per day. So work a normal shift or work overtime, there is some money to be made. Also, these are the lowest level hookers available. If a hooker was work off the street, you are looking at six figues easily.
Indeed. I don't think prostitution is legal in Chicago. It's scary to think the police are making "deals" with the prostitutes as opposed to arresting them. I wonder if they have made deals with drug dealers.
Moral Absolutes Ping!
So, what's the radio code for gettin' a freebie from a streetwalker, "10-69" ?
I know. They could make that or more working full time at a restraunt or as a desk clerk. Why destroy their dignity for such little money? I mean, it's wrong regardless of the amount of profit brough it, but I have no clue why these women would do this for such a small amount of money. Consider all the STDs and risks they are taking. One of these men could kill them!
So out of one hunred cops, three have free sex with whores? 97 do not? 97%? More than 9 times as many cops dont have sex with prostitutes than do have the sex?
I wonder how may FOX empolyees have sex with whores?
A hit piece on cops again.
My thoughts exactly.
It's probably just supplemental income to the welfare checks.
You can't cheat a truly honest woman.
"So out of one hunred cops, three have free sex with whores? 97 do not? 97%? More than 9 times as many cops dont have sex with prostitutes than do have the sex?"
Actually, that should be "More than 32 times as many cops don't have sex with prostitutes as do."
If true? IF?
I am assuming you are a guy. If you were female you would know about options girls sometimes have when stopped for a speeding ticket.
This is to be expected in a Democratic stronghold, where nothing occurs by merit.
"...blacks...paid less."
It's twue, it's twue!
LOL That's true.
Good point. Since this is illegal, they wouldn't report it and therefore wouldn't be taxed on it. Therefore, they can recieve welfare.
What, are you getting ideas?
If indeed a small percentage of Chicago's Finest do trade a walk
for some favors...
the sticker on their cars should be
"To Protect And Be Serviced"
Technically, you're both wrong. 3% of tricks are freebies, not 3% of cops are accepting them. The percentage of cops accepting freebies could be much more or much, much less.
Then again, this IS Chicago...
I have yet to meet that perfect hooker who would be worth my job, my health, and my marriage.
And more and more bad cops not worth risking anything for.....
Ewww. Most Chi-Town cops make enough to get call girls instead of 'hood Rats. YEECH!
Why do I know this? I had a friend of mine at U of C do her thesis on street walkers in Chicago. This was a decade ago, and I can't find her thesis anywhere online.
There's a surprise. I guess dunkin' donuts isn't what it used to be.

Selling Imagination in the IoT Era
May 19, 2016
If you love studying technology trends and imagining what they will do for your business, it's easy to lose sight of the fact that you have a vision of how things will be, while many of those you need to partner with to achieve that vision still are trying to master the reality of today. Congratulations -- you have a combination of curiosity, prescience and nerdiness that will serve you well.
Marketing and Loyalty
May 17, 2016
The CRM industry is shining a bright light on digital marketing, and it is a sign of how early we are in the digital marketing boom that few vendors are championing the idea of using marketing in any way other than for driving sales. Based on recent events by Oracle and Salesforce, it appears that the focus on driving more sales makes perfect sense for organizations just getting their feet wet.
Could the Next Disruptive Consumer Product Be a Flip Phone?
May 16, 2016
Smartphones appear to be losing their luster, and the king of smartphones -- Apple -- clearly is not having a good year. Suddenly, I'm hearing that there is an upswing in flip phones, making this feel a bit like a Game of Thrones episode, when a believed-dead king returns to seize the throne by surprise. Clearly, the market is looking for the next big thing.
The Why of Customers
May 13, 2016
SAS Institute introduced SAS Customer Intelligence 360 at its recent Global Forum meeting. Intelligence 360 has some good ideas baked in, though some of the messaging I heard wasn't up to the level of the product or at least its intention. I suspect that will come, and it's an easy fix. The product set is divided into two major components, Discover and Engage.
The Emergence of Managed IoT Services
May 13, 2016
With every market forecast predicting rapid growth of the overall Internet of Things, industry and investor focus shifts to specific market segments that will experience the quickest adoption. While most of the attention is on applications and technologies, managed IoT services will be one of the biggest market opportunities. One challenge to widespread IoT adoption is the lack of skills.
Bill Gates' Open Letter
May 10, 2016
It has been 40 years since Bill Gates wrote his open letter to the software industry complaining that computer hobbyists were stealing his BASIC program. That was so long ago that Wikipedia has a picture of the source code for "Micro-Soft" BASIC on paper tape. A lot of things have changed since then. In the 1970s when Microsoft was getting started, it was common for people to copy, swap or donate software simply because they could.
The Interesting Dell + EMC Stories You Haven't Heard
May 9, 2016
I spent last week at EMC World talking to customers and both Dell and EMC employees, on the lookout for interesting stories that others hadn't picked up. I got a bunch that I think are fascinating -- stories about women in technology, billions of dollars of currently untapped revenue, and why every EMC and Dell sales rep effectively will have a dartboard with Meg Whitman's picture on it.
Sliding Revenues
May 4, 2016
Apple's earnings disappointment thudded into view last week in the middle of briefings at Oracle's Modern Marketing Experience conference. It gave me a lot to think about -- especially the difference between a one-time earnings disappointment and something more serious. I have a feeling that Apple is only the most visible instance of the wheels beginning to wobble on the truck of tech.
Gadget Ogling: Digital Doodles, Magnetic Lighting, and Alexa Everywhere
May 4, 2016
Orée's Stylograph pen, which is made of copper, can transmit your scrawls and doodles to an iOS or Android device. It houses an accelerometer and a camera on the tip to capture what you're noting. You can get two days of use from an hour's charge, and if you're away from your smartphone or tablet as you're sketching or writing, you can store the data and transfer it later.
The Customer Experience Tipping Point
May 2, 2016
Sometimes, it takes something drastic to change a business' behavior. Standard procedures can remain in place long after they've become detrimental, but sometimes it takes a tipping point to drive home the fact that failing to change is the surest way to fail. For example, the Ford Pinto's easily ruptured fuel tank could have been remedied with changes that ranged in price from $11 to $1.
Under the Shadow of Steve Jobs: Why Trump May Be Unbeatable
May 2, 2016
One of the frustrating things for me during Steve Jobs' time was that most of the folks who watched Apple go from nearly dead to the most valuable company in the world didn't seem to see anything really unusual. It was more like they were watching a great tennis player and seemingly concluding, "damn, what luck!" However, it requires a particular set of skills to do what Jobs did.
App Dev Today
April 27, 2016
Last year, I researched the impact of the proliferation of cloud computing on business. I know it sounds like a dry topic, but if you are a CIO or an application development manager, the results can have serious meaning. Cloud computing has deeply penetrated the enterprise and SMB ranks, and 46.3 percent of respondents said they had four or more cloud applications in use.
The Successful B2B Relationship: It's About Time
April 25, 2016
Respect is a vital ingredient in any mutually beneficial relationship, and that's never truer than in the case of business-to-business buyers and sellers. The most elementary way a seller shows a commitment to a healthy customer relationship is through an ongoing display of respect. That means a relationship in which the seller shows an understanding of the buyer's needs.
Why Is the PC Industry Trying to Kill the PC?
April 25, 2016
Every time the "PC is dead" topic comes up, an old Monty Python movie comes to mind, and I'll bet you can guess which one. PCs are on almost every desk, and the installed base is measured not in the hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands -- it is measured in the hundred millions. Brian Krzanich last week announced a massive layoff at Intel, and once again the alarm sounded.
Gadget Ogling: A 360-Degree Cam, a Leveled-Up Kindle, and a Space-Saving Home Gym
April 21, 2016
Facebook has unveiled its latest push into hardware -- an open source 360-degree camera. Bearing 17 cameras and Web-based software to render footage in 360-degrees, Facebook Surround 360 is more of a design than a commercial product. It would cost around $30,000 to build one as is, Facebook said. The idea is to allow creators to iterate on the design to create their own cameras.
Zuora Moves to the Center
April 20, 2016
Zuora, the company that made its bones in subscription billing and payments, held its annual Subscribed user meeting last week and staked out some new turf. It always has been focused on the back office, but its latest messaging included elements of the front office. Perhaps it's no surprise given CEO Tien Tzuo's history as an early luminary at Salesforce, rising to the CMO position.
What the Traditional Car Companies Don't Seem to Get
April 18, 2016
Two interesting events took place this month. Tesla announced its Model 3, a relatively affordable electric car, and it attracted around 180K preorders on the same day. That was before the company actually revealed the car. There were more than 250K preorders in the first 36 hours. Oh, and the run rate is about 1,500 per hour of pre-orders for this car right now.
Gadget Ogling: Smarter Notes, Livelier Virtual Reality, and Bigger In-Flight Movies
April 14, 2016
We've for some time had Moleskine's Smart Notebooks, which allow you to jot down your thoughts and upload them to Evernote through an app. The new Smart Writing Set takes that idea and elevates it to a new plane, letting you quickly turn scrawled notes or doodles into digital files you can edit using a computer or any mobile app -- no smartphone camera required.
Fake Loyalty
April 13, 2016
There's an interesting connection between customer relationships in subscription businesses and loyalty, Zuora CEO Tien Tzuo wrote recently. His article had particular resonance for me, since I just wrote a book about customer loyalty myself. My research is full of old-style approaches to customer loyalty that aren't really about loyalty so much as they are about, shall we say, customer coercion.
Learning to Love Virtual Reality
April 11, 2016
At Nvidia's technology conference, I saw a variety of new technologies showcased. From deep learning systems -- computers that arguably are smarter than we are -- to self-driving cars that can drive better than we can, the technological advances on display made me feel just a tad inadequate. One way to get over my sudden concern over obsolescence was to check out the virtual reality showcase.
Disrupting Software Development in an On-Demand World
April 8, 2016
The idea that software is eating the world has become a generally accepted dictum. Everywhere you look, industries and institutions are being disrupted by the unprecedented power of software. Now, the world is demanding a new way to develop software to keep pace with the pace of disruption. The greatest poster child for the brave new world of software-driven business is General Electric.
Please Hold the Music
April 6, 2016
Remember when your mother used to yell up the stairs to get you to turn your music down? Sometimes, in the age before sensitivity awareness, your dad would do the yelling and he'd substitute noise for music. Ah, the good old days. Too bad they aren't here right now yelling at vendors. ConsumerAffairs.com is the brainchild of James R. Hood, a former Washington, D.C., journalist.
Gadget Ogling: Food Frenzies and Rollerblade Off-Roading
April 6, 2016
Of all the kitchen gadgets I own, the rice cooker is possibly my second-most favorite after the tea kettle. Sure, I could make rice in a pot, but the dedicated rice cooker makes it much easier to attend to other details instead of watching the pot. Xiaomi's pressurized version might prove even better. It recognizes the type of rice from a barcode scan and cooks it perfectly.
The Sales Process Starts With Retention
April 5, 2016
Despite the numbers that show how lucrative retention is in an increasingly subscription-driven economy, the emphasis has been on new customer acquisition. That is still true, according to a recent study. Forty-two percent of the firms surveyed said they were increasing their budgets for customer acquisition, while only 33 percent said the budget for retention would increase.
The Hololens Academy: How I Became a Novice Wizard
April 4, 2016
At last week's Microsoft Build conference, I attended the Hololens Academy -- a whirlwind effort to turn me into a master programmer able to create things out of thin air. It failed. Apparently it takes longer than an hour to teach someone who hasn't coded in decades to be a master programmer -- go figure. However, by the end of the class I was gleefully throwing fireballs.
CPQ's Challenge
March 31, 2016
Virtually every CPQ -- configuration, price and quote -- software vendor on the planet has a credible solution for the processes from which the category gets its name. That's the good news. Unfortunately, the world has moved on. Most CPQ is effective for helping promote transactions, especially the sales transaction, in which a buyer or buying entity makes a one-time purchase of a bill of goods.
Gadget Ogling: Honey, I Shrunk the iPhone
March 31, 2016
The iPhone SE packs almost everything from the iPhone 6s into a handset that looks almost identical to the iPhone 5. The only thing that's really missing is Force Touch. It's a smart play, trying to convince iPhone 4 and 5 owners that they can still upgrade to -- almost -- the latest model without the need to take on a device with a larger screen.
A Dramatic 16 Years for 4 Tech Titans
March 28, 2016
Following Apple's latest announcements, I noticed a number of reports on how disappointed customers were that there was nothing they wanted to wait in line for hours to buy. I personally thought they should have been excited about that, because I hate to stand in lines. I've never really figured out an Apple fanatic's penchant for pain. Still, it is very clear that today's Apple is very different.
Commoditizing Software
March 24, 2016
For more than 50 years, the IT industry has followed a well-known script associated with emerging and evolving paradigms: First a product or category is introduced, then it gains wide acceptance (or dies on the vine), followed by a long period when vendors and customers seek out more efficient ways to produce the thing. Ultimately, the category becomes so important that all must have it.

No. 1 planned use for Apple iPad: working on the goA new survey of wireless device users has found that the top intended use for Apple's forthcoming iPad is getting work done while on the road, suggesting the multimedia device could serve as a netbook replacement for many consumers.
The new study released this week from Sybase and conducted by Zogby International surveyed 2,443 adults with a mobile phone, 770 of which own smartphones. Among the smartphone-owning respondents, more than half — 52.3 percent — said they are most likely to use a tablet device like the iPad to do work. Another three-quarters of smartphone users said they believe devices like the iPad will make them more productive at work.
Beyond work, 48.2 percent of smartphone users believe they will use their iPad for watching movies, TV shows and other videos. Playing games was the third most popular activity among smartphone respondents, taking 35.4 percent.
"The study shows that consumers are looking for devices they can use both at home and work, with implications for the business being asked to support them," Sybase wrote in its analysis. "Further, findings show that while device functionality is important to satisfying people's desire for a personal and work-ready mobile experience that the experience is incomplete without greater access to data."
Specifically, the poll found that users feel they have limited access to both their personal and work data. Two-thirds of respondents who have data on their mobile devices said that they have access to less than 10 percent of both their personal and work data, as well as applications.
Those surveyed hope for a more connected future where they can access their data from anywhere, as 67.6 percent said they would be more productive if they could access twice the amount of information and applications they do today.
Apple has targeted business users as potential iPad customers, adding features designed to make the device attractive to the enterprise market. The iPad will sync documents with iTunes and will also access cloud, Web and local file shares.
Multi-touch versions of applications in Apple's iWork suite will also be available for the iPad, with new iterations of Numbers, Pages and Keynote set to cost $9.99 each on the App Store. The mobile version of Pages will also be compatible with Microsoft Word, allowing users to open and save files in the standard business document format.
As for cloud-based storage, an alleged e-mail response from Apple co-founder Steve Jobs said that the iPad will support the accessing of documents through iWork.com and iDisk.

Sergio Thompson, Castellanos Win: Wilder Stops Greer
By Miguel Rivera
Centro de Convenciones, Villahermosa, Tabasco, Mexico - Sergio "Yeyo" Thompson grabbed another victory by TKO, this time at 1:25 of the fifth round, over Nicaraguan Moses "Cobra" Castro. Thompson retains international silver super featherweight title of theWorld Boxing Council (WBC). Thompson increased his numbers to 30 wins with 28 knockouts and 2 defeats, while Castro added defeat number 20, with 29 wins, 4 draws and 13 knockouts.
Heavyweight Olympian Deontay Wilder (27-0, 27KOs) continued his streak of knockouts with a second round stoppage of veteran Matthew Greer (15-9, 13KOs).
Robinson "Robin" Castellanos (17-9, 11KOs) had a dream debut for Golden Boy Promotions with a first round knockout of Edgar "Lupillo" Ramirez (13-6, 10KOs) to retain his silver featherweight world championship of the WBC. In the first round, a big left put Ramirez down. He beat the count, but later caught a hard left hook that put him away.
Super bantamweight prospect Ivan Morales (20-0, 13KOs) drilled Patricio Camacho (16-8-1, 13KOs) in the first round. Morales only needed 47 seconds to land a huge overhand right for the big knockout victory.
When Wilder steps up and fights an elite fighter the knock out streak will continue. Unfortunately for him he will most likely be on the other end of one.Comment by nycsmooth on 01-20-2013

The NFL draft is a few weeks away and nothing is more amusing than watching the frenzy that happens this time of year.
It has become humorous to see players' values fluctuate without them even playing a down of football, but right now there are some grossly overrated prospects making their way up on many draft boards.
The months leading up to the annual draft are a sight to see. Every nugget of game film is dissected, all test scores are scrutinized and the stocks of future NFL players rise and fall quicker than the Dow Jones.
There are players every year who inflate their value due to an excellent pro day or combine workout but fail to match the hype when they reach the NFL level.
The flip side of this is seeing a player run a less than impressive 40-yard dash and then watching his stock plummet.
None of these measureables do much to tell if a football player can perform on the field and only time will tell if these draft picks can ever live up to expectations.

There are always several head-scratching omissions from the NBA All-Star game every year.
It's no different this year.
In addition to some questionable All-Star reserve selections, there are also some players starting the game who really shouldn't be there.
The reserves for the East are Kyrie Irving, Jrue Holiday, Tyson Chandler, Joakim Noah, Luol Deng, Chris Bosh and Paul George.
Russell Westbrook, James Harden, Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, LaMarcus Aldridge, David Lee and Zach Randolph make up the reserves for the West.
Some of those players, however, should not be involved in the game. Here are six examples of who should and shouldn't be a 2013 All-Star

Scientific and Technical Characteristics, and Full Descriptions with Crosstable
Print book
It consists of an Introduction and six Regional Summary chapters that describe the spatial metadata activities happening in Europe, North America, Asia/Pacific, Latin America, Africa/Middle East, and the ISO community. These chapters provide the broader context and description of the milieu in which these standards operate, so that the reader can more easily understand the scientific and technical framework from whence a particular standard has emerged. The third section is a complete listing of all of the three levels of scientific and technical characteristics, and their meaning by the inclusion of a set of definitions for metadata terms used in the book. The fourth section, and by far the largest, contains 22 chapters that assess each of the major national and international spatial metadata standards in the world, and also contains a few representative subject matter profile derived from a major standard. They have been carried out in terms of all three levels of characteristics. Each assessment has been carried out by a Commission member who has been an active participant in the development of the standard being assessed in the native language of that standard. The fifth section contains a summary cross-table wall size summary chart that includes all 22 standards and profiles that are cross tabulated by 70 of the crucial characteristics. The columns provide a thumbnail sketch of each individual standard, while the rows facilitate a quick comparison of individual critical characteristics across all of the 22 standards and profiles. Many readers of our previous book have begun their standards evaluation process with this cross-table.
This current book on spatial metadata standards has been purposely designed to serve as a companion working volume to the 1997 book the Commission published on S

We have a spacious 5 bedroom solar powered home nestled against the enchanting Australian forest. The beach is 2 minutes drive away or a pleasant 20 minute walk through the forest. Enjoy the birdlife from our expansive deck overlooking the garden.
Relax on our expansive deck and (if it's a good wildlife day day) see the king parrots, scaly breasted lorikeets, rosellas, and even the occasional wallaby! The home is Scandinavian themed and adorned in over 30 of our Finnish mother's tapestries. We are surrounded by a constant melody of parrots, kookaburras and green tree frogs.
We are 15 minutes walk to some of Australia's most beautiful beaches that are matched by magical sunsets that you get in this part of the world. There is a wonderful shaded forest walk to the beach. We see dolphins at nearby Shelly beach early most mornings and whales during the whale season. Nambucca Heads has a subtropical climate with great weather for most of the year.
The house is 10 minutes walk from the local Nambucca Heads shops. We are 30 minutes drive from the very stylish Bellingen and enjoy going there regularly for a bit of cafe-life. Nambucca is close to the freeway so it's a small detour if you are commuting and need a place to stay for the evening.
This is a cute and modest size private room in a family home with a Queen size bed. You would share the main house bathroom, shower and toilet with other guests.
We provide a bowl of fresh fruit in your room. We provide you with 1 shelf in our fridge with bread and eggs that you can cook yourself using our kitchen. There is also tea, coffee, and milk available. There is off street parking in our driveway.
Please note we do not have a TV available, most guests love the tranquillity and privacy you will find here.
We look forward to meeting you!
Guests have access to the beautiful verandah upstairs, the kitchen and dining room, as well as the garden.
Iris is happy to answer any questions you may have about the area and places to visit. I also respect your privacy and will give you the space you need to enjoy your stay.
We love our neighbourhood as it is very quiet and private and we back onto bush reserve and state forest, yet we are close to the beach and shops.
I can pick you up from Coffs Harbour airport for an extra $20 each way, and also from the bus stop or train station at Nambucca for no charge. Let me know when you're booking if you require this service.
We enjoy a quiet lifestyle and work from home, so we don't provide meals and may not be available for socializing as much as you would like as our work is quite demanding of our time. We thank you in advance for your understanding. You are very welcome to use our well equipped kitchen to prepare and cook your own meals, and we are always available to answer your questions and to give directions. The supermarket is only a few minutes drive from the house.
If you are a smoker we would appreciate you not smoking inside the house or on the deck. We have a large garden area in which you are welcome to smoke. Our neighbour's little dog loves to visit and you will often find her wandering around, she is tiny and very very sweet.
There is plenty of parking in front of the house, probably for about 4 cars! We are in a battle axe block so the house location is very private. Please don't park in front of the garage doors but to the side of the driveway.
You are free to come and go as you please. Keys are not needed. We will provide basic breakfast items, such as bread, eggs, fruit, and tea and coffee. There is a shelf in the fridge just for Airbnb guests. There is a washing machine that you are free to use as well.
House is quiet after 11pm.
Alcohol only in tasteful moderation and no recreational drug taking please.
Living areas, kitchen, deck, toilet and shower are shared.
We love having people come to stay and meeting all the different people that come through airbnb. We are always up for a quick chat when you arrive and to answer any questions to help you get settled in and enjoy your stay.

Entirely Rewritten?[edit]
I see nothing at all wrong with this article. In fact, I think it should be on the Good Article List."Selene Scott (talk) 18:21, 31 July 2012 (UTC)"
- the problem you all are having is the fact that the Bible does contradict itself and there's no way to change that. all that could be done is to name every contradiction to each rule, and that would make the article unreasonably long I think. I think the Article is Good and that someone should remove the Rewrite Entirely tag on it or you will wind up with a much worse or bias Article if someone should decide to take it upon themselves to rewrite it."Selene Scott (talk) 18:28, 31 July 2012 (UTC)"
I erased the material because of small population. Another editor restored it saying there was from 10 to 20K in America and therefore worth retaining. 20k is .01% of the population. There must be thousands of religions with this small a population. Probably should set a threshold of 1 million which would still be only .3% or so. 3 million seems a bit low, as well.
Also please note that most of the "adherents" are transitory teen-aged boys attempting to annoy there parents/teachers, as the case may be. Few girls. When they grow up, they stop. Not really notable. Student7 (talk) 17:55, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

Introducing, my version of Bad Romance! So many people helped me with the outfits so I want to give them A LOT of credit by putting their usernames up on my video itself! Thank you so much guys! Wondering how they helped out? Well, read this list!: GoldGuySims: for the white crown JasonSimzz: for suggesting to use a capsule, but I didnt use it Dx sorry! I couldnt find it in my game after I downloaded it...Also, thank you for the skeleton. HausofGaGaMusic: For the idea of using a "dance sphere" as a orbit dress. IITechnoMickyII: For telling me were to get the necklaces outfit (I just imported the mesh to another, and recolored it). It is found at Peggy Sims, but I might upload a better version (my version) on GaGaSims. Serkiro: For the "Alexander McQueen" hair. I just remeshed it and recolored it. It's found at RoseSims2.net Tyrn06: For the Dress Mesh in the beginning, The Black crown, and the Alexander Mcqueen outfit. I just recolored the Alexander McQueen Outfit and kind of remeshed the Dress Outfit from the beginning. Max2Sims2: For the custom animations! They're awesome! (Can be found in their website, link in their channel) I would love to thank you guys SO much! The video wouldn't be complete without your help! -Notes- Yes, I know that there are some parts with messed up quality. It's something with my editing program. And It was really hard to do the very last part-I couldn't find a burnt bed to download! So, I used HausofGaGa's idea again (sorry!) of putting her and the skeleton on the floor with ashes. Please check out their version! Also, you guys should check out Max2Sims, and GoldGuySims' upcoming Bad Romance video. *wink* They have some previews uploaded already!

My in-laws are nice enough, they help us out when they can and they love our daughter very much. I am pretty much used to the unsolicitated advice from them because it's been there from day 1. HOWEVER, I get so sick of my FILs advice on what to do when my daughter goes through the "terrible 2s" and so on. He tells me about how he would scream at my husband as a child, how he took him into a public restroom and splashed water in his face (as a toddler) because he was misbehaving. He tells me about the "hot seat", basically sitting the child on the couch until they calm down (the one thing I actually agree with). I have heard these stories A MILLION times, he tells them to me and to other family members whose children he thinks are misbehaving (a 3 year old and a 4 year old). It's not just about child-rearing, he has the answers for absolutely everything. I smile and nod, and I try to be polite but I really lose my cool sometimes.
I also have concerns for when we have a second child. He did not agree with me BFing. He kept telling me that she was too hungry and that it was such an inconvenience. It didn't work for my MIL so he assumes it doesn't work for anyone. He also likes the "convenience" of formula. When I was nursing our first I would just try and focus on what I was doing and block him out but I don't know that I will be able to keep my mouth shut second time around. He actually said "Good for you!" When I had to switch my daughter to formula at 6 months. I know that his intentions are good. I keep telling myself that, but it's still quite annoying.

URS Global Management and Operations Services or GMOS released its 2013 annual review, highlighting its hand in liquid waste operations at the Savannah River Site.
The company leads Savannah River Remediation, the sites liquid waste contractor. Together, the two companies worked to achieve more than 3 million safe work hours while grouting and operationally closing two more Cold War-era waste tanks.
Closing waste Tanks 5 and 6 comes a year after SRR closed Tanks 18 and 19, the first radioactive waste tanks closed at SRS since the first two tanks in the nation were closed by URS heritage company Westinghouse Savannah River Company in 1997, officials wrote in the report.
In addition to tank cleanup, URS also assists in salt waste treatment and helped treat a record 1.32 million gallons of the material last year.
The work removes nearly all of the radioactive isotopes in the salt waste before taking the material to a saltstone facility and the Defense Waste Processing Facility.
Keith Wood from URS public affairs added, The projects that we manage are critical to our customers, regulators, stakeholders and the public. We take pride in our exemplary safety record while continuing to successfully reduce risk, accelerate cleanup and provide visionary leadership.
URS Corporation is a provider of engineering, construction and technical services for public agencies and private sector companies around the world.

With an Opening Day clash against the Phillies a week away, the Pirates still have a couple 25-man roster spots open, with a bullpen battle going on as well as a battle for final bench spots.
What comes in the next six slides is my 25-man roster predictions separated into five sections, with my projected Opening Day lineup on the sixth and final slide.
See who comes out on top in some of the battles and who is on their way to Indianapolis?

A few months ago my DH brought up piercing our LO's ears at a year. Her birthday was early this week and we took her out and got them pierced tonight! I can't believe it! I had to wait until I was 15 to have mine done, which is a little much, but one might be a little much too, haha. She handled it surprisingly well, much better than I thought she would. :)
Anyway, who else out there pierced their LO's ears??

BOULDER CITY, Nev. -- It's easy to trade the wild ways of Las Vegas for the wilds of the nearby Colorado River: All it takes is a call to a boating outfitter and a federally-approved form of identification.
That's because the overnight float trips in the Black Canyon put in just below the Hoover Dam, 30 miles southeast of Las Vegas. The massive power plant, which produces enough electricity for 1.3 million people, is located in a security zone enforced by its own federal police force.
For about $350 per person, our operator provided transportation, a guide, high-quality kayaks, camping gear, dry bags, life jackets and food. All we needed to bring were a change of clothes, hats, sunscreen and our passports, driver's licenses or birth certificates.
Our adventure started early. We were picked up at our hotel on the Las Vegas strip at 6 a.m., and about two hours later we were in our kayaks, gazing up at the 700-foot-high U-shaped dam.
The scenery in the gorge was spectacular. Facing downstream, Nevada was to our right, Arizona to our left, and stretching out in front were canyon walls and a ribbon of gently flowing green water.
The first half of the trip offers the most spectacular scenery, and the most interesting activities. Many of the walks involve scrambling up steep rocks -- sometimes in running water -- and several sites are fixed with permanent ropes to help explorers.
At the Sauna Cave, we penetrated about 50 feet into a shaft drilled by miners working on the dam until they hit a geothermal vent. Between the 130-degree steam and the hot water underfoot, our visit was brief.
The approximate midway point is the Arizona Hot Springs Beach. We stopped there only briefly, to purify enough river water to fill our water bottles.
The following day, the river widened and so did the view from our kayaks. We passed under cable cars and a catwalk built in the 1930s for the men who crossed the river to the gauging station.
At the Emerald Cave, we waited our turn while those who had paddled upstream explored the iridescent hollow. It was worth the wait, offering respite from the sun and a tremendous photo.
It was also our day for wildlife. We saw two bighorn sheep on a rock ledge, bald eagles and thousands upon thousands of grasshoppers.
We made it to the takeout at Willow Beach by 4 p.m. For about 1,400 years, it was an Indian trading camp, but today it is a marina with boat rentals, RV sites, a restaurant and a gift shop.
We were back in civilization, and soon to be back at our hotel in Las Vegas. Goodbye, serenity; hello, Sin City.
