Watts Pick to Hit Pop Up Content
Diamonds in the Rough
Edwin Watts golf offers some superb products that you definitely don't want to overlook. If they didn't get there deserved share of media fanfare when first coming to the market, then now is your chance to prosper. They're great pieces of equipment that can really boost your game and lower your score. And regardless of if they've been out in the market for a while of brand new to it, our Watts Experts have tested them out in the field and found them to be more than worthwhile. So here are some Diamonds In The Rough that will keep you out of the rough. We've found these gems to be terrific values for your game. We highly suggest you give them strong consideration.
Custom engineering in the Ping G30 Hybrid produces faster ball speeds and longer distance with a higher maximum shot height so you have the stopping power to hold greens, giving you the confidence to attack pins. To increase face deflection and ball speed for adding distance with a higher peak trajectory, the 17-4 stainless steel face uses a stronger H900 heat-treatment process, making it thin but strong. The result is more distance with the steeper landing angle you need to hold shots on the green.
The G30 hybrids benefit from performance-engineered internal weight pads. Heel-toe weighting elevates MOI and forgiveness. Weight in the low sole creates a low-back CG for consistent impact and helps you launch the ball high and on target. In the lower-lofted hybrids, the CG is farther back to promote high launch. A lower, more forward CG through the mid- and higher-lofted models reduces spin. Progressive CG locations and offsets ensure efficient gapping and trajectories that maximize distance.
To inspire confidence, the hybrids' top rail is flatter and the heel section is higher, providing a very square face at address that helps with aim and alignment consistency. A matte charcoal finish reduces glare to help you focus.

At first, it was the emotion texting.
Aaron Rodgers and his Green Bay Packers teammates had left Ford Field when his iPhone vibrated. His frustration in the wake of a 40-10 Thanksgiving Day defeat at the hands of the Detroit Lions was still boiling. It had been a game that that his coach, Mike McCarthy, had called "a very disappointing and embarrassing loss" and "a very poor performance" – and was arguably still understating just how awful it was.
And all Rodgers had been able to do was watch from the sideline, listen on the coaching headsets and, at one point, toss away his clipboard in disgust.
So, he was asked, would he be back for the team's next game, Dec. 8 against Atlanta?
"Count on it," came the reply in the little gray bubble.
Then, mere seconds later, more gray bubbles.
"Hold on," he wrote. "Lemme think."
While Rodgers' thumbs paused and his mind pondered, the reality was this: With Thursday's blowout loss – the first time the Lions had won on Thanksgiving since 2003, when they beat the Packers 22-14 before a nine-game holiday losing streak on their holiday home turf – it may not matter.
Certainly, mathematically, the Packers (5-6-1) could get Rodgers back and run the table, finish 9-6-1 and win the NFC North division title if the Lions (7-5) and Bears (6-5) stumble down the stretch. But the way they're playing – offensively and defensively? Not even their MVP might be able to save them at this point.
With Matt Flynn starting in Rodgers' place – thereby becoming the fourth different starting quarterback to get the nod this season, which could be unprecedented (team and Elias Sports Bureau research cannot say definitively) – the Packers offense managed a pathetic 126 net yards and only three points.
It was the fewest yards by a Packers offense since a 35-0 loss to the New England Patriots in McCarthy's first season on Nov. 19, 2006, when they managed only 120 yards after Brett Favre was knocked out with an elbow injury and Rodgers played the second half on a broken foot.
"Probably the worst (expletive) offensive day in the history of the (expletive) Packers," right guard/center T.J. Lang said. "It was bad."
It also marked the first time the Packers had failed to generate an offensive touchdown since Dec. 12, 2010, when the Lions knocked Rodgers out of the game with a concussion and Flynn struggled in a 7-3 loss.
Unlike 2010, though, when the Packers went into the final two weeks of the regular season at 8-6 and embarked on a six-game winning streak that consummated in the Super Bowl XLV title, this team doesn't appear to have any semblance of that team's determination. Or, possibly, talent. On defense, the team got cornerback Sam Shields (hamstring), run-stuffing defensive end Johnny Jolly (groin) and outside linebacker Nick Perry (foot/ankle) back from injury – and managed to be worse. On offense, the unit looked nothing like the Flynn-led outfit that rallied from a 16-point fourth-quarter deficit last Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings to forge a 26-26 tie – the team's only non-loss since Rodgers broke his left collarbone against the Chicago Bears on Nov. 4 on Monday Night Football.
Asked if Rodgers might give his team a spark by returning, McCarthy replied, "You don't want to put everything on one man, but I think it's obvious how important Aaron Rodgers is to any football team. The fact of the matter is we have 61 players in our building, we have a coaching staff. And when you're rallying cry is 'Next man up,' and everything is going well and you're able to overcome injuries throughout the early part of the year, everybody's high fiving. And then when you don't, now you're going to sit here and cry a different tune? That's not the way it works. We're in this to win games and we haven't won a game in five weeks."
No, they haven't. Since Rodgers went down, the Packers are 0-4-1. They were on a four-game winning streak and were 5-2 at the time. Since then, the offense can be most politely described as inconsistent. Their defense cannot be described politely at all.
Nearly eclipsing last January's playoff abomination, when the unit gave up 579 yards to the San Francisco 49ers in an NFC Divisional Playoff loss, the Packers managed to take the ball away four times – including a Matthew Stafford fumble that was caused by outside linebacker Nick Perry and returned for a touchdown by safety Morgan Burnett – and still left the building completely embarrassed, having allowed 563 net yards, a season-worst 241 rushing yards and a season-high five touchdowns.
"That's obviously very difficult to comprehend and come to the realization," outside linebacker Clay Matthews said. "But the only place we can go from here is up. At least we're hoping so."
Most stunningly, the Packers run defense has imploded. After six games, the unit was ranked No. 3 in the league and allowing just 79.0 yards per game, putting them on a franchise-record pace for fewest rushing yards allowed in a season. (The record, set in 2009, was 83.3 yards per game.)
In the last six games, the Packers have allowed 1,037 yards, with the Lions (241) and the Minnesota Vikings (232) putting up season-highs against the defense in back-to-back weeks. For perspective, the Packers gave up 474 rushing yards in the first six games. In the last two, they've allowed 473.
"Scheme is not a crutch," McCarthy said, clearly defending defensive coordinator Dom Capers with his response to a question about the defense. "When you're in run defense, you play with leverage, you've got to get off the damn block and tackle the ball carrier. You can cut it any way you want, and we're not doing that right now. We haven't done that in a month."
They also haven't won in a month. Asked why they're 0-4-1 without Rodgers, McCarthy seemed to point to the players.
"I'm not going to make excuses. I think the facts of the matter, especially in today's game, it's clear what's gone on with our football team," McCarthy said. "You line up with 46 (players) each and every week and you put a plan in for those guys to be successful – and we didn't even come close to hitting the mark today. I don't know how else to keep telling you that. The Detroit Lions got after us in a big way."
Remarkably, though, the game was a one-score game at halftime (17-10), and even after the Packers went three-and-out on the opening possession of the third quarter – one of five three-and-outs on the day – and the Lions scored on the ensuing possession to make it 24-10, all was not lost.
"We were still optimistic. We knew that we hadn't caught rhythm yet," said Flynn, who completed 10 of 20 passes for 139 yards with no touchdowns and one interception (51.9 rating) – and was sacked as many times as the Packers managed first downs (seven). "We started out OK, got a couple first downs, but that's not us out there, and we knew that."
The Packers' next four possessions ended in a Flynn fumble, after which McCarthy threw his play-call sheet on the sideline; a Flynn interception when he appeared to think he had a free play but instead the Packers had committed an illegal-formation penalty; a safety when Flynn was sacked in the end zone on second-and-13 from the Green Bay 2; and a punt.
When Stafford threw a 20-yard touchdown pass to Kevin Ogletree to make it 40-10 with 4 minutes 17 seconds to play, the numbers told the story: The Lions had rolled up 563 yards of offense, the Packers had managed 56 – meaning both sides of the ball had been utterly destroyed.
"Anytime you can't get anything going, anytime that you know you should be, you know you should be, and things just aren't going your way, it's very frustrating," Flynn said. "We kept talking about things to do, trying to game-plan what we were seeing and things like that, but it just seemed like everything we did, we didn't execute."
Trying to speak for the defense, inside linebacker A.J. Hawk couldn't.
"That's the thing. I don't have any answers for you," Hawk said. "I wish I did, wish I could point to something – one thing, at least.
"Obviously, it's something that most guys – especially the young guys – definitely aren't used to around here. I'm not, either – none of us are. Honestly, I don't know. You can try to search and find answers but talking about it's not going to do anything. We can sit here as a unit and do whatever and point out what the issues are and what we need to do, but if we don't do it on Sunday, it doesn't matter."
Which brings us back to Rodgers, who stood on the sideline and watched it all unfold, and the little gray iMessage bubbles.
He has said multiple times that the Packers' record and playoff odds will not influence him coming back; he has vowed to play again this season regardless. He said so again Thursday.
"We've got 10 days until the Atlanta game," he wrote. "That should be long enough."
The Packers hope it is. But even if Rodgers does return, it guarantees nothing with how awful they appear to be at the moment.
"It definitely made things a lot more difficult without Aaron. I think we all know that," guard Josh Sitton said. "There's no denying that. You can't say, 'Hey we can go and play just as good without Aaron.' We haven't won a game without him in five weeks. He's the best player on this team. Yeah, we need him.
"But there's a lot more going on than just that."

The Witnesses' convention theme "God's Word Is Truth!" is significant because as one embraces the Bible it has proved to be the most trustworthy guide and source of advice in trouble times. The convention's Bible based program promises that all in attendance will benefit from the practical advice it will give and the positive message will help a person to rely on it in their everyday life.
Weeks before the convention, Jehovah's Witnesses will put forth extra effort to extend a personal invitation to everyone from Aransas Pass, Carrizo Springs, Corpus Christi, Del Rio, Devine, Eagle Pass, Hondo, Portland, San Antonio, Uvalde, Woodsboro and Victoria, Texas to attend the convention with them. The second and last of the two three-day events to be held in Corpus Christi will begin Friday, August 30-September 1, 2013, at 9:20 a.m. The daily themes and titles of program parts are based on passages of Scripture, including John 8:32, Psalms 86:11 and 2 Peter 1:12.
Program highlights include: Friday, 9:40am Chairman's Address: "How We Know God's Word is Truth," 3:30pm A Live Dramatic Play: "Show Yourself Attentive to the Wonderful Works of God." Saturday, 9:40am Symposium: "Reject What Is False!" 11:40am Baptism "Continue Walking in the Truth." Sunday, 11:10am Public Bible Discourse: "What Is Truth?" and at 1:40pm A Second Live Dramatic Play: "Prepare Your Heart for the Trials Ahead" (Esther).
There is no admission fee. Conventions of Jehovah's Witnesses are supported entirely by voluntary donations.
Locally, all of the area's congregations of Jehovah's Witnesses will be supporting the activity of distributing printed invitations to the convention. An estimated 3,900 will come each day to the AmericanBank Center Arena for the last English Program, starting Friday, August 30-September 1, 2013 for the Bible-based program.

Define "best."
Then define "sweet."
JPG - Le Male is the first one I thought of. Also, Chanel Allure Homme Sport is great.
From what I hear, Habit Rouge is also sweet, but I've not smelled it yet.
The best "sweet, gourmand" scent for men in your opinion.
I think ST Dupont Noir, Casran Choppard, Armand Basi ph, and V Valentino come to mind...

Nicole Miller - while it lasts. Ignition by Lomani does last. Samba Kiss (men). Corinto Silver is too sweet, but that may be because there's not enough of anything else going on. Of course, if you want a sweet chocolate, there are several to choose from.

I kinda like Guerlain L'Instant as a gourmand scent
Green Dragon
Aliquando et insanire iucundum est.
I like Rochas Man and Hana Mori quite a bit.
I haven't done a lot of sampling in this category though.
I'm not a big fan of this type of scents, but to me Rochas Man and Lomani Ignition are both excellent. Sweet without being cloying and quite inexpensive too.
No guru, not method, no teacher
Just you and I and nature

what about Allure ph and Lanvin Arpege?
Allure ph doesn't really strike me as a typical gourmand, although I once got a compliment that I smelled sweet as honey when I was wearing it. I agree that the EdP version of Guerlain L'Instant pour Homme is an excellent gourmand well worth having if you can find it.
I love cologne.
I wear Red Aoud and Aomassi when I'm in the mood for a gourmand.
These days, I've been loving Bond 09's New Haarlem. Coffee, cream and patchouli. Yum.

The thing I didn't like much about New Haarlem is that it's too close to smelling like something I want to eat. Instead, I prefer frags that hint at edibility without going all the way to me thinking that there's an actual food item in front of me. Anyone else feel that way?

I don't like saying 'the best'. My knowledge is extremely limited. But Serge Lutens Fumerie Turque is a very nice sweet/smokey scent, you may call it gourmand.
have tried Lomani Ignition and it is very vanilly .
I third the New Haarlem.
PVC and Leather. A Chain and a feather
I'll also recommend:
Rochas Man (best coffee scent...)
Carlos Santana for Men (cinnamon, incense, patchouli)
Guerlain l'Instant (both versions, but especially the EdP) (dark chocolate)
Lolita Lempika au Masculin (anise)
Plus I'll add these:
Serge Lutens Rousse (cinnamon dry)
Animale Animale (chocolate and lavender)
Body Kouros (anise)
Cartier Declaration Intense (more chocolate, but subtle here)
Burberry Red (vanilla, but maybe a bit feminine...)
Slightly sweet :
Habit Rouge, Guerlain
Jicky, Gerlain
Extreemely sweet :
Teint de Neige, Lorenzo Villoresi
Double Spiritueuse Vanille, Guerlain
L'amour fait songer, vivre et croire. Il a, pour réchauffer le coeur, un rayon de plus que la gloire; et ce rayon, c'est le bonheur. (Victor HUGO)
Don't know about "best" and this is not my preferred style, but I'd like top point out a hidden gem: Identité by German label René Lezard. A boozy-caramel gourmand which is, amazingly, not excessively sweet.
If Borneo counts as sweet, that's the ultimate for me.

Rated 4 out of 5Â by bobburnham22 We called them "snakes." You call them "draft stoppers"; my grandmother called them "snakes". Now, I'm talkin' the late 1940's, and Grandma's house had large windows and drafty doors (although it was a very warm place to grow up in). She took the material (ticking?) from which pillow were made - it had a black striped look - and made long rectangles. Forming an inside-out tube, she stitched down the long side and across the end. The filled was a medium coarse sand, from where I don't know. As with your product, it was only about 95% filled to allow flexibility for corners and window locks. she had the benefit of knowing the size she needed, even for non-standard windows. I like the scent of your product when there are tiny air leaks! Sadly, our windows are neither of your sizes, but the smaller does most of the width between the sashes; baggies with sand(!) cover the ends. We love your store and your products. Keep the tempting catalogs coming (I'm SURE you will.) February 10, 2016

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Oceanside Chick Stopped draft under RV slide-out I had observed in my Class-C RV, which I live in, that when the slide was out, there was a cold draft from under the slide. What to do?! Then I remembered a Vermont Country Store product, thinking, "If anyone knows about cold drafts, it's people in Vermont." So I ordered two, which arrived promptly, realized how lightweight and delicately fragrant they were, and placed them around the drafty spots. Draft gone! They are just what I wanted. Thank you, Vermont Country Store! K.M. Morey May 31, 2015

Rated 5 out of 5Â by raymom Best purchase I've ever made Since I live in North Charleston SC where we only have two cold days a year it is hard to find products like draft stoppers, flannel sheets and heavy blankets. I've had a problem with drafts under my doors but no more thanks to The Vermont Country Store. The wonderful balsam scent is an added bonus. You have become my go to store for just about everything. Thank you. February 24, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Deaver Does the Job we ordered several draft dodgers to block drafts from the front door of our condo and to stop drafts at the base of the sliding door to the balcony. They are seem to be doing the job very well. One suggestion....one end of each draft dodger should have a cloth loop so that when you didn't want it in place, you could hang it on the little gizmo on the top hinge that keeps the door from banging into the wall...otherwise, especially for our front door, they are cumbersome to leave laying near the door.

Rivero International
Rivero International finds its genesis in the vast rolling plains of Uruguay – on the ranch of Ricardo's father Alberto Rivero. With more than 100 acres, the ranch offered young Ricardo an abundance of room to roam, to uncover exciting discoveries, and to cultivate a rich imagination. But the ranch also became an opportunity to learn how to work and to work hard, a place to appreciate the benefits of hard work, and fertile ground for the possibilities of the future.
Ricardo's equine education began early: learning to train horses to ride, to herding cattle, to winning endurance races, and to successfully competing in the show ring. Though Ricardo and his father were the first to bring Arabian horses to the world of endurance racing in Uruguay, it was the halter show world that captured Ricardo.
At 9 years old, Ricardo led his first horse, a weanling filly, into the show ring. Together they left the rings as champions. "It wasn't a really big show but it was my first win. I was super excited," remembers Ricardo. Tutored by his father, a successful trainer and showman himself, Ricardo started from the hoof up: cleaning stalls, feeding, clipping, conditioning, schooling and showing. The endless hours and the long days crafted Ricardo into an international show man.
By age 18, Ricardo claimed his first National Champion in Uruguay. "That particular National Championship was perhaps the meant the most to me because it was my first National win," admits Ricardo. A host of other National winds would follow: U.S. Nationals, Argentina, Brazil, the Egyptian Event, the Las Vegas World Cup, Columbia, Dubai, Saudi, the United Arab Emeritus, Poland, Scottsdale and a pile of Regional wins. Significantly, Ricardo was twice named Halter Trainer of Excellence at the Vegas World Cup show – unanimous decisions by the judges and show committee.
Following basic fundamentals and an extraordinary work ethic rooted in his father's Uruguay ranch, coupled with exceptional talent and commitment, Ricardo and Rivero International opened their new facilities on September 1, 2013 – welcoming clients from around the world.
We invite you to join visit us, to experience the beauty and magic of the Arabian horse, to find your next champion or back yard companion – and to join the family of Rivero International.
Owner: Ricardo Rivero

Intel Corp. on Thursday announced collaboration with two French universities – Commissariat à l'Énergie Atomique, Grand Equipement National de Calcul Intensif and Université de Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines – to create an Exascale Computing Research Center, which will explore how to build high-performance computing systems with a thousand times the performance of today's fastest supercomputers.
At present the world's highest performance super computer – the Jaguar – has peak performance of around 1.75 teraflops. The hyper computers to be developed in the Exascale Computing Research Center, which will be a part of Intel Labs organization in Europe, will be able to produce over one exaflop of performance, or 1 000 000 000 000 000 000 of floating point operations per second.
The research agenda of the Exascale Computing Research Center will include integrating multi petaFLOPS systems, developing advanced performance optimization techniques, and collaborating with end users to optimize supercomputer performance in areas such as energy, seismology, computational fluid dynamics and health care.
"France has taken a leading role in driving high-performance computing research in Europe. We chose to work with these three organizations because of their world-class software competency in exascale and high- performance computing," said Steve Pawlowski, Intel senior fellow and general manager of Intel architecture group's central architecture and planning.
Intel will support the Exascale Computing Research Center with a multi-million Euro investment over a 3-year period. The French Atomic Energy Commission (Commissariat à l'Énergie Atomique), the Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines University (Université de Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines) and the French National High-Performance Computing Agency (Grand Equipement National de Calcul Intensif) will combine to match Intel's contribution. This is Intel's first joint lab in Europe focused exclusively on high-performance computing (HPC). It will complement and extend Intel's existing high-performance computing research programs, investments and initiatives, including the Intel Academic Community Program and European Space Agency's "Mapping the Globe from Space" project.
The advent of exascale is expected to enable supercomputers to solve much more complex problems than today. For example in health care this capability should enable highly sophisticated genome calculations, enabling individualized patient treatment, or simulation of cell interactions to provide new cancer treatments. Another application can be found in seismology where exascale computing could enable more detailed prediction of ground movement at sites with high security requirements or where frequent movement is expected. In climate modeling, more accurate long-term forecasts and much more detailed local weather forecasts could be made.
The Exascale Computing Research Center will combine French research expertise and high-performance computing vision with Intel's leading products, technologies and experience in this area. The lab will employ about a dozen people initially and is expected to eventually grow to about three times that number.

Happy Birthday Vin Scully!!
Yesterday November 29th, our baseball poet laureate turned 82!
We love you Vin! Happy birthday!!
Here is a Vin Scully short video that you will love from the California Sports Hall of Fame org: LOL. I love what Vin tells Tommy at the end!
Is too bad that this year we will not have the Christmas event for Dodgers season ticket holders. Last year, my friend LTD23, Erik and I had a ball at Dodger Stadium. An extra bonus was that Vin Scully showed up. Here is a pic I took last year!
It was an overcast day but we had a wonderful time!
After Erik and I yelled our customary greeting to Vin with "Vin Scully, we love you!" Vin looked at us and smiled. He talked about how the stadium is like a person with open arms, about the sky with some clouds but that us fans were brighten up the day🙂. At the end he took notice of this little girl in the front with wings on telling her and other kids "you better watch out, you better not cry, Santa is coming to town…." Afterwards Tommy Claus waddled to that area. It was a great event for both kids and adults.
Here I am at the pitcher's mound while the line to visit Tommy Claus was getting longer. Meanwhile at the batter's box, they are taking pictures of fans and putting the message "Season Greatings from <insert name>"
Yes, Vin, it was a day filled with clouds, but YOU brighten the day by being there! May you continue to enjoy broadcasting games and brightening our days!
Here is Vin throwing out the first pitch at Fenway Park. That was the last time the Dodgers were at Fenway! I hope Vin does goes again next year!
A Happy belated birthday also to Ross Porter who shares a birthday with Vin! Ross turned 71!
What have I been up to lately? Well for me, is the busiest time at work from November till February so I am thankful that it is during the baseball off-season. I have also been in a reading binge. My last three books? Well, one had zombies, and the last two? Vampires and werewolves.
19 Comments
I am shuddering the fact that some day we will not hear his silky voice over the airwaves or on the Television.
What a sad day in Tinseltown it will be too.
For Vin Scully is one of the true voices of baseball to me.
Sure some might add Harry Carey to that list or recently departed Harry Kalas, but there is only one guy who can handle both a commentator and an analyst position during a game and it comes out a masterpiece.
Happy Birthday Vin, and I truly hope you have a hundred more!
Rays Renegade
Well said Rays! I was going thru my closet organizing my clothes when I ran into my Vin Scully pin! I was so happy. I thought I had lost it. I have not seen anymore at the stadium.
I repeat your great sentiments sent Vin's way! Wow, can't believe he's only 82. I mean, he doesn't look that old, but my great grandpa told stories of listening to Vin Scully. Now that was a long time ago!
Very cool that Vin has the same birthday as Mo Rivera – two baseball greats! Happy Birthday to Vin and may he keep broadcasting for a long, long time.
GREAT PICTURES! Happy Birthday to Vin and I hope he had a wonderful day! And Emma I hope you are having a wonderful OFFSEASON….super busy but a good one! Take care!
Isn't great that so many of generations have listened to Vin?
Glad you mentioned that Mo also has a bday on the same day!
thanks Rose!
Not much to read in the newspaper. I look for baseball news and the rest I only glance at it. Hope you and your familia are having a great offseason. Yeah, I know what you mean. Spring can't get here soon enough.
Scully is not only the voice of the Dodgers, but all of baseball. The christmas trees look nice out there in SoCal. Just add snow and itd be the ideal winter wonderland on the baseball diamond!
You are so right! Vin is the voice of Baseball. I was lucky enough that I got to hear him doing Football and golf. thanks!
Emma, don't leave me wondering what books you're referring to! I'm going to have to guess that the "vampires and werewolves" refers to the Twilight series. What about the zombies? Maybe "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies"? I myself just finished Stephen King's "Under the Dome", a mere 1078(!) pages. The bad thing about really long hardcover books is there's no comfortable way to hold them.
Rants, Raves, and Random Thoughts
haha! You guessed what I've have been reading. I am on the 4th and last book of the Twilight series (754 pages) . Wow! 1078 pages on your book! yeah, you are right. Those big books are hard to hold. So was the book good?
Yes, it was good. It has a very large cast of characters, some of whom are truly despicable, but there are others who I found myself getting very emotionally invested in. The climax of the book almost brought me to tears at some parts, truly a first for me for a Stephen King book. I haven't read too much of his stuff the past number of years, but this one was worth it.
Rants, Raves, and Random Thoughts
I'm just 27 but it's hard to believe that even my father wasn't born yet when Vin Scully first started working for the Dodgers. It will be hard to measure the impact on the team that Scully's retirement will have. It can't be good.
I might have to check out that book but oh, I have so many books at home waiting for me to read them. I am almost done with the 4th part of the the Twilight series.
You are young enough to be my son! 🙂 but I was not born ethier when Vin started working for the Dodgers!
I thought you would like the one from Fenway Park. Hoepfully Vin will make the trip like last time.
Wow, a living legend!! I hope Vin had a great birthday!!
thanks for the shirts emma!
I do fit compfortably into the extra large and gave the xxl to my football player rooomate. we both appreciate them very much. Merry Christmas!
So I'm a little late getting here, but you slow down somewhat with age, happy b'day to Vin, here's hoping I have all my wits about me at that age, especially as i seem to be loosing them already…LOL
Outside the Phillies Looking In
Glad you and your friend were able to use the shirts! I kept two of the four pack.
yes, Vin is a living legend. If you get a chance, say to him in Denver! Well, I hope he will still travel to Denver. He does not travel further that.
I wish I had half of Vin's wit at my age! hehe, I am losing too.

My daughter is 14months old and I am still up 3 times give or take at night nursing her....I have had several nasty comments about this. They say she doesnt need it and say its me??? I am so confused! Please help!!!
My daughter is 14months old and I am still up 3 times give or take at night nursing her....I have had several nasty comments about this. They say she doesnt need it and say its me??? I am so confused! Please help!!!
Is night feeding okay at 14 months? You bet it is! If it's okay with you, that is. It certainly won't harm your child.
Not too many moms are so generous that they don't resent month after month after month of night feedings. When people give criticism on the subject of night feedings, they are often projecting their own negative feelings about it onto you. But you are not required to share that negativity!!!
Thanks so much! I dont want to quit nursing her at night although I do wish I could get some more ZZZzzz's. lol I am a single mom to five kiddos and share a bed with my baby! I love nursing and hate that she will grow up and stop someday...just not wanting it to be today! LOL Is it normal for moms to nurse thru the night at this age though???
We co-sleep too and I nurse my 16 month old during the night. If you are fine with it that's all that matters. I just don't tell anyone b/c I don't want to hear the dumb comments they have to say. When asked if she sttn I just say "yup" b/c she technically doesn't "get up" as I respond before she can.
Proud mom of 2:
DD 5/2008 nursed for 3 years and 3 months.
DS born 8/2011 nursing like a champ
Sorry for the short responses...always, always, always NAK or holding a baby
My DS is 13 months and still nurses quite a lot at night. We co-sleep as well.
I'm Anna
Proud mama to my 2 little high needs "koala bears":

Lucas, born 1/6/11
Nursing strong for 19 MONTHS!
Cloth diapering 1 full-time even though I'm constantly ! Currently in potty training mode. We also and
If its fine with you then it's totally ok. I still nurse my 14 month old daughter during the night. We don't co-sleep, but she usually wakes once during the night and can't resettle on her own (probably would if I just left her to cry it out but I'm not prepared to do that), so I go and give her a feed. Just recently she's started sleeping through on some nights, ie; not waking for a feed, but it's the rarity not the norm.
I also have got some negative responses to this, and am selective who I tell, as the general thought around this seems to be that they don't "need" the food, so why should you be giving it at night. To be honest, I like the night cuddles, it's so quiet and still, and about the only time she's not crawling around the place, so I get a good cuddle.
I couldn't handle 3 times a night, but I guess co-sleeping makes that much more convenient, as you don't have to get up yourself.

Thanks everyone!!! The comment has been that "she doesnt need it" a lot. I enjoy the quiet also durning night feeds and the cuddling! I have 5 kids and the other 4 grew up so fast and I didnt take time for night feeds then. ALSO....I dont think I can tell her NO if I had tooo....cant take those tears!
You have to do what is right for your LO and yourself. Every toddler is different, some of them NEED the night nursings. We did it until 15 months then nightweaned, but then I was very flexible for teething.
Mommy to

My LO is 23 months + a couple days. She still wakes almost hourly to nurse (co-sleeping here, too). I'm so exhausted after 23 months, though! LOL! SOOO tired! I'm starting trying to nightwean.
Keep up the good work, mama! Wish you a lot of energy to keep it up, especially w/ 5 kiddos! You rock!

Did you adjust the magnet tension screw next to the trigger? Or maybe took it apart to clean and the magnet fell off?
Posted 05 October 2012 - 09:48 AM
magnet screw is comming loose, use loctite on it
Posted 05 October 2012 - 04:34 PM
yeah i adjusted the magnet trigger thats about it though and it only does it sometimes for some wierd reason like it hasnt been doing it lately
Posted 05 October 2012 - 05:20 PM
thats because the screw is becomming progressively loose until it finally moves out, use loctite
Posted 05 October 2012 - 05:53 PM
Use loctite on the magnet screw, and if that doesnt work, then send it to azodin. They have great customer service and will fix it for free, you will just have to pay shipping
Posted 05 October 2012 - 07:27 PM
ok how do i get the magnet screw out
Posted 05 October 2012 - 07:32 PM

Find Your Passion: Making Every Move Count
By Deirdra Drinkard
University of Alabama student Robert Maxwell is no stranger to the game of chess.
The royal game of strategy was something Maxwell became interested in at a young age.
"My dad taught me to play chess, and we still play each other whenever I go back home," Maxwell says. "I enjoy chess because of the type of competition it offers."
The opponents playing chess are on an equal playing field, Maxwell says. Unlike football or basketball, size does not matter in playing chess; it is all in the strategy.
"In chess, both players play on a level field and whoever has the best plan and the best execution wins," Maxwell says. "There is no better feeling than having a plan and setting it into motion and seeing it succeed. It's an awesome way to grow as a competitor and as a player."
His love for the game continued over the years, but not until his senior year of college did Maxwell have the opportunity to share his passion.
Through the Center of Ethics & Social Responsibility initiative Every Move Counts, Maxwell, a senior majoring in economics and finance from Huntsville, was able to share his knowledge of chess with Tuscaloosa Magnet School children.
"Chess is a great way for kids to relax and have fun–and they really do have fun–but still be doing something very beneficial and educational," Maxwell says. "The Every Move Counts class gave me the opportunity to get involved, and as soon as I heard about it I jumped right on it."
As part of the class, Maxwell worked with three seventh graders at Tuscaloosa Magnet School for a 45-minute session of chess each week. Maxwell was one of 14 UA students who taught chess to 50 children at Tuscaloosa Magnet Elementary and Middle Schools as part of Every Move Counts during the fall 2010 semester.
"I was expecting to teach some students the basics of the game, and I thought it may give me a better understanding of how to teach chess and a feel for how much the kids enjoyed it," Maxwell says.
With the guidance of the in-class portion of the Every Move Counts program, Maxwell was prepared to teach the basics of chess and assist the TMS students in bettering their chess skills.
"We began going over 'end games' and learning how to force check mate with different groups of pieces," Maxwell says. "Eventually they learned openings and tactics so they could play complete games."
Maxwell said it wasn't only the children who were taught.
"I've actually learned a lot about the game through the class as well," Maxwell says.
He says the children truly enjoyed playing chess, and they were good at it.
"The kids are a lot better than you would think, and they legitimately love playing chess," Maxwell says. "I think adults can view chess as difficult and boring, but I was amazed at the level of excitement and anticipation every day when we got the board out."
Maxwell shared his enthusiasm and passion for chess, and it rubbed off on the TMS students he worked with each week.
"My kids even started playing outside the class," Maxwell says. "I never knew the game had such a universal appeal, though. The hardest part is making them stop playing before they miss the bus."
Like the children, Maxwell was not ready for the service-learning class to end, so he signed up to take the class again this semester.
"It has been unbelievable to watch the progression my students have had since day one, and I really want to continue to watch their transformation into chess players."
Whether moving a pawn or placing a king in check, Maxwell instilled in the children the idea that every move does, indeed, count.

text: My son just turned 21 months old, were in the process of moving so dad is not around as much because of working on the house. I took him to a friends house (she has two boys, whom he knows but was never at her house before) so I could work for 1 day and he cried almost the entire time he was there. I took an early lunch and then took him to my brothers so he could play with his cousin. He was better but still whined around for me. He fell asleep stitting in the kitchen up against the door waiting on me. Anyway, now I can't leave him with anyone. He won't even sit with his daddy if I leave the room. How can I explain to him mommy will be back? and its ok to be sad but it will be ok? How so I explain this to a (almost) two year old?

I need to increase my milk supply. My daughter is 5 1/2 weeks old and 9 lbs. I have been pumping to give her breast milk via bottle because she refuses to nurse from my breast despite my best efforts and much to the consternation of my lactation consultant. She knows what to do she just won't do it.
She was born via c-section due to my rising blood pressure. I had a lot of difficulty with the anesthesia and spent a long time in recovery. Also, she had low blood glucose at birth so they had to bottle feed her immediately. I did not get to attempt to nurse for almost 24 hours and she was bottle fed and finger fed during that time.
When I pump...which I do every 2-3 hours...I am getting appx 1/2 oz from my left breast and 1 to 2 oz. from my right. Her appetite has increased and I have had to use the small amount I had managed to store just to keep up with her. At this point I am only one feeding ahead of her and I REALLY don't want to have to give her formula.
I have always been 100% dedicated to breastfeeding and now I am beginning to feel like there is a conspiracy of the universe to keep me from doing it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here are some examples of nutrients essential for specific body functions. These nutrients provide "information" so the body can complete the necessary processes. (Note: This is a simplification for illustrative purposes. There are no doubt many more substances involved in all of these processes, including trace minerals and co-factors.)
Immune function: vitamin A, vitamin E, zinc, folic acid, vitamin B-6, riboflavin, magnesium, selenium, vitamin C
Nerve impulses: sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, vitamin B6, folic acid, B-12, copper, vitamin C
Tissue repair and formation: vitamin A, vitamin E, copper, riboflavin, magnesium, vitamin B6, vitamin C
Metabolism: potassium, thiamin, niacin, vitamin B6, magnesium, riboflavin, folic acid, vitamin C
Note that magnesium is needed for all of the functions listed above. Let's take a closer look at magnesium as "information."
Magnesium is a mineral found in whole grain, wheat germ, nuts, and seeds (especially pumpkin seeds), soybeans, tofu, chocolate, dark-green vegetables, legumes, yogurt, and other dairy products. However, the amount of magnesium in any magnesium-rich food is influenced by the soil content in which the food was grown. In many commercial farms, magnesium has been depleted from the soil.
If a person did not get enough magnesium over a period of time, these functions would decline. The magnesium insufficiency might manifest as the following:
Eating magnesium-rich foods or supplementing with magnesium would provide the information needed to restore function and reduce risk.

Pressure on Yankees' Hughes in Game 3 of ALCS
New York down 2-0 heading into Detroit
While Yankees manager Joe Girardi spent Monday's off-day attending his father's funeral, his team had to be thinking about ways get its offense going against one of the game's top pitchers.
The Tigers already own a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven American League Championship Series after winning twice in New York, and in Game 3 on Tuesday in Detroit, the Yankees' struggling offense will have to face last year's AL MVP Justin Verlander, who is coming off a complete-game shutout of Oakland in the deciding game of the previous series.
It puts a lot of pressure on Phil Hughes, who will start Game 3 for the Yankees after Girardi decided not to come back with CC Sabathia on short rest.
"I don't really feel like I can, you know, sort of feel any added pressure just because of the circumstances," Hughes said. "I just have to go out there and pitch, that's all it boils down to, not really worry about being down 0-2; that Verlander is on the mound; that we don't have our captain (Derek Jeter, who is out with a broken ankle).
"Those sort of things are going to be wasted energy, and all I really want to focus on is the Detroit Tigers lineup and doing the absolute best job I can do."
Hughes pitched a complete-game victory against Detroit on June 3, yielding four hits and one run, but he gave up eight hits and four runs to the Tigers in 4 1/3 innings on August 7.
"I'm just trying to throw out as many zeroes as I can," he said, "so that doesn't really change. (Verlander) is a great pitcher, but he's human. I feel if we can get Game 3, we have a good chance with CC going (in Game 4)."
Indeed, Game 3 is pivotal. Losing Game 3 puts the Yankees on the brink of elimination, but winning Game 3 gives the Yankees a chance to tie the series with Sabathia on the mound in Game 4.
But Tigers manager Jim Leyland said Verlander threw one of the best games he's ever seen in his shutout out the A's in his last start.
"Obviously he is at the top of the class," Leyland said Monday, "but I think I feel good about him because I think the maturity is so much greater than it was a couple of years ago. And I don't worry about the pitch count in the last game. He seemed to tune it up pretty good. I think when he gets focused in like he was in that game, he will be ready to pitch this game."
Girardi was not available to the media on Monday as he was attending his father's funeral in Peoria, Ill. So it's unclear whether he will make any significant changes to his lineup after being shut out in Game 2 and scoring in only one of the 21 innings in the series against the Tigers.
Leyland said it's just a matter of time before the Yankees' break out on offense.
He would like Verlander to pitch another complete game, but if he needs help to finish it off, Leyland is unsure who his closer would be Tuesday.
Leyland said on Monday he still considers Jose Valverde the Tigers closer, and that the team is going to need him to have prolonged success in this postseason. But Valverde has struggled recently and was not used in Game 2.
"I'll have a conversation with him tomorrow, see how he's feeling, see what the pitching coach thinks," Leyland said. "We'll see how the game plays out and go from there. I don't really have another set closer."

Kingstone Press Championship
Barrow Raiders v Batley Bulldogs (7.30pm Premier Sports)
Barrow Raiders are boosted by the return of Kurt Haggerty, who looks set to take a place in the second row after serving a one-match suspension during Barrow's 58-12 defeat at Featherstone Rovers.
However, Sean Casey and Dean McGilvray both face late fitness tests before Darren Holt's team selection is confirmed.
Holt said: "I'm absolutely 100 per cent certain that every one of our home games is winnable.
"We'll be going out on Thursday to get that first win."
Batley Bulldogs coach John Kear has highlighted Barrow's Liam Harrison as one of the Raiders' key men for Thursday's clash.
Kear said: "Liam had a great game against Featherstone last week. That might sound a bit perverse when his team lost 58-12, but he really stood up as a leader and helped them restore some credibility. He was outstanding."
Kear will make late checks on three mystery injuries before finalising his team.
"We're confident one or two of them will play, but we're not so sure that all three will make it," he said.
Kear added: "We've played well in facets of each of our three games so far, and we're definitely improving, but it's pretty easy to identify areas we can still work on.
"If we are going to challenge, which we want to do this year, then we've got to play better than we have done in our first three games."

Keighley Cougars v Swinton Lions (6.00pm)
Impressed Keighley Cougars coach Paul March is planning to name an unchanged squad for Sunday's Kingstone Press Championship fixture with Swinton Lions.
March's troops earned a bonus point at Halifax last week, losing 30-20.
March said: "We were happy with what we did. Our performance was a lot better, and at half time we were well in the game.
"Everybody's come through OK, so we'll run with the same 17 again this week, or as close to it as possible depending on any dual registration players."
Swinton have endured a difficult week following the shock resignation of coach Steve McCormack, but March believes that will make Keighley's job even more difficult.
He said: "I don't know who's taking charge of them, but their players will want to impress whoever's coming in, whether they're there as caretaker or on a permanent basis.
"They'll be a difficult team to crack, and we had some good games with them last year, so it's up to us to play with the same enthusiasm and intensity as we did at Halifax."
Swinton trio James Laithwaite (knee), Glenn Riley (hand) and Dan Birkett (hip) will all be assessed after missing last week's 52-20 defeat by Sheffield Eagles.
Chaz I'Anson (thumb) is definitely missing for the Lions.
Sunday February 24
Dewsbury Rams v Whitehaven (3.00pm)
Dewsbury Rams coach Glenn Morrison believes their defensive efforts have been key to their solid start to the Kingstone Press Championship.
The Rams have seven points from their first three games, including a 14-4 win at Hunslet Hawks last week.
Morrison said: "It was our defence that won us the game at Hunslet. We're still a little bit off in attack, but that will come with time."
He added: "We know Whitehaven are going to be very strong. They've experience in their halves, and in Paul Jackson they have one of the most experienced props in the competition."
Morrison has two unnamed injury concerns, but insisted: "We've got plenty of depth if we need to bring other guys in."
Whitehaven coach Dave Woods is hopeful that Lee Doran could make his return to action on Sunday.
Woods' side lost 28-14 against Leigh Centurions last week. He said: "We need to be better. Don't get me wrong, we're happy with how we're going – we've got two wins from three in a new division for us – but if we were a little smarter we could have had a bonus point against Leigh as well.
"Our pack is going really well – it's in attack and in our halves where I want us to be better and more clinical. We need to make our last play options count."
Featherstone Rovers v Hunslet Hawks (3.00pm)
Featherstone Rovers coach Daryl Powell continues to be without Michael Haley (foot) and Sam Smeaton (knee), but Tim Spears is making good progress following shoulder surgery and could play in Featherstone's U20s side on Thursday night.
Powell's men are one of only two teams to have a 100 per cent record in this year's Kingstone Press Championship, with last week's 58-12 win over Barrow Raiders helping to give Featherstone a huge points difference less than a month into the new season.
Powell said: "We're big and mobile, and there are lots of offloads in there which is really strengthening the way we play."
Hunslet Hawks coach Barry Eaton has doubts over Luke Menzies (shin) and Luke Haigh (shoulder), but expects both to be fit for Sunday's clash.
Eaton said: "We should be looking forward to going to Featherstone and pitting our wits against the best.
"We certainly won't be in fear of going there. It's a place you want to go and enjoy."
Leigh Centurions v Doncaster (3.00pm)
Matt Gardner is suspended for Leigh, while Centurions coach Paul Rowley also has a minor doubt over Michael Ostick.
But Rowley could make more changes after admitting every member of his squad is staking a claim for selection.
Rowley said: "We've got some middle-unit players ready and chomping at the bit, and it's getting really difficult to not pick some players at the moment.
"We might just put some new bodies in this week, because the pressure from underneath is getting to the stage where I can't ignore it."
On Doncaster, he added: "They're a big, physical side that's full of confidence, so we'll have to be tight in the middle and defensively honest.
"They've got two wins from three this year, and before that they had a Grand Final win.
"They've got team harmony, and all the consistent and winning teams in our leagues have shown that to be a factor in any success."
Dons coach Tony Miller will check on Mark Castle (back spasms) before naming his squad.
Miller said: "Leigh will be a tough test for us, but there's no pressure on our guys."
He added: "Mentally we've come a long way. Our main focus this season was to consolidate and keep ourselves in this division, but if we can finish in the top eight then that would be as successful for us as last season."
Workington Town v Sheffield Eagles (3.00pm)
Workington Town coach Gary Charlton hopes to be boosted by the return of up to three players for Sunday's game with Kingstone Press Championship champions Sheffield Eagles.
Kris Coward and Marc Shackley will definitely be involved, while Charlton is also hopeful that Jason Mossop can prove his fitness in training after an ankle ligament problem.
He hopes their combined knowledge will help Town become more clinical after claiming just one win from their first three games of the season.
Charlton said: "We've got to learn to take our chances when they come around, because we'll get fewer opportunities in this division than we're used to.
"Everything you work for and earn, you've got to take – and that'll be exactly the same against Sheffield."
Eagles coach Mark Aston is aiming to back up last week's 52-20 win at Swinton, in which Peter Green starred to earn the Premier Sports Player of the Week award, with a third win of the season when Sheffield travel to Workington on Sunday.
Patch Walker looks set for a recall after watching the Swinton fixture alongside Aston.
But Dane McDonald is unlikely to feature again this season, having returned to Australia following a shoulder operation.
Joe Hirst (broken hand) and Scott Turner (ankle ligaments) are also missing from Aston's squad this week, with Nev Morrison likely to replace Turner.
York City Knights v Halifax (3.00pm)
York City Knights coach Gary Thornton is battling against a mounting injury list just three weeks into the new Kingstone Press Championship season.
Matt Nicholson (shoulder) and Jack Lee (shoulder) are both facing a number of weeks on the sidelines, while Aaron Lyons (hip), Austin Bell (ankle) and Danny Nicklas (shoulder) are also ruled out of Sunday's fixture.
Dean Hadley (twisted ankle) will face a late fitness test before his availability is decided.
Thornton said: "We knew these three weeks – against Batley, Halifax and Sheffield – would be tough. We got a bit beat up at Batley last week, and it'll certainly test the strength and depth of our squad.
"Our biggest concern is the front row, and we could have only two recognised props, but I won't risk anyone that's not right.
"We've got a short turnaround next week and a critical period coming up."
Halifax coach Karl Harrison could name an unchanged side after reporting no new injury concerns after last week's 30-20 win over Keighley Cougars.
'Fax's preparations for Sunday's game have included an opposed training session with NRL champions Melbourne Storm.
Harrison said: "We treated it like an intense training session and everybody felt the benefit.
"Being on the same pitch as the Storm players was fantastic for our lads."

Beginning in February 2012, Fannie Mae will introduce a number of enhancements to the at-issuance disclosure we provide for our Multifamily MBS. The following fields will be available on the New Issues Loan and Collateral Statement (NILCS), the Schedule of Pool and Loan Information (Schedule A) for individual MBS, as well as the user interface and the Download All and Export files on the Multifamily Securities Locator Service:
In addition, a new section for footnotes that are published on the Schedule of Pool and Loan Information will be included on the NILCS file. Please review the NILCS file layout for the enhanced file layout.
Beginning with March 2012 MBS issuances, the Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) disclosed at issuance will be the actual, rather than the underwritten DSCR. This change aligns with market practices, and does not impact securities issued prior to March 2012. For securities issued prior to March 2012, Fannie Mae only disclosed the underwritten DSCR at issuance. Refer to the DSCR Primer for product-specific information and sample calculations.
Investors may contact our Fixed-Income Securities Helpline at 1-800-BEST-MBS (1-800-237-8627) if they have questions about this announcement.

Los Doyers contra Los Cerveceros

nice marketing with the shirts. when i was out west I was amazed at how the teams promoted themselves to the wide array of cultures.
nice marketing with the shirts. when i was out west I was amazed at how the teams promoted themselves to the wide array of cultures.
That is the thing that being such a multi-culture city, there is a big population of Koreans, Japanese, Chinese and especially hispanics. I don't know how long it has been around but there is an annual "Viva Los Dodgers" festival that draws not only hispanics but ALL Dodger fans. The person that told me last year where to get the "Los Doyers" t-shirt is Caucasian. He is tall, blue eyes that likes to wear cowboy boots. Last year at the festival he was sporting a "Los Doyers" shirt. Come to think of it, I have not seen him lately. I remember in one of these events, Jose Lima performed. He is a pretty good singer and dancer.
CRAZY week for the Dodgers…girl we have had interesting things happening at Dodgers Stadium this past two nights. The GREEN MAN on Monday and then the man running on the field on Tuesday… players getting hit by ball…but hey FULL MOON happening on Thurday…it drives people nuts. And guess who is probable pitcher on FULL MOON THURSDAY….aaaaaahooooooooo…WOLF!
That is right! Wolfie goes against D.Lowe! ohoh, full moon. That should be good luck for Wolf. We got to get even against D.Lowe. Let's see what tonight brings with Schmidt on the mound.
What a wild game with the whole Mota/Fielder thing. And then Fielder couldn't fit through the clubhouse door? LOL! I guess there will be fines and/or suspensions?
That sure was a wild game. Dodgers batted around in one inning so I had to use an extra column to keep score. I thought it was funny that guy came out with that line for Fielder. four HBP. i am sure suspensions/fines will be coming. Let's see what tonight brings.
I am back in the saddle again….. lol.
Emma: Another photo with Ethier? Come on! How many more are there?! All I want is one! Actually, to be honest, if I had the chance to see him a lot like you, I totally would! After Pettitte's start last night, I decided to rid him of his "bad luck" name. I remember when Randy Wolf was really good with the Phillies. But I'm sure his bad luck streak will end, since Pettitte's did. Saturday really sounds cool. I wish I could be there. I hope you enjoy it! Let me know how it goes. I wish your Dodgers luck against the Braves! Hope my Yanks have luck against the Sox this week…I'll talk to you later! -Virginia
It will be a full moon on Thursday with the Wolf on the mound against D.Lowe.
Can't wait till Saturday. Last year I directed my question/comment to Don Mattingly durig the luncheon. This year it will be Torre or James Loney.
I loved being there for last night's game. But how is it possible, you said on Monday they outscored the opposition, but lost. If you outscore the opposition then you win.
Oops Martinezforever, I meant they outhit the opposition! Thanks!!!
You're kidding a full moon and Wolf on the mound? Really?
How many more pics with Ethier are you hiding? LOL!
Good luck against the Braves!!
Hey Ginny,
Yep, believe it! Wolfie on the mound with a full moon and I know Vin Scully will make reference to that! There are some fans that sport the Wolf mask like they did in Philadelphia.
I have a few pictures of Ethier. Some with uni and some with regular clothes🙂. Well, my friend Lore is the one with the most Dodgers pictures. I call her "Juana SooHoo " in honor of our Dodger photographer Jon SooHoo who takes amazing pictures. "Juana" has some amazing pictures herself. She is learning from the best.

Succeeding with Help from the Design World
It's interesting to think about how ideas outside of operations and supply chain management can influence and overcome challenges we face inside the field. Earlier this month, Harvey Schachter, a management columnist for Toronto's Globe and Mail, wrote about design thinking and the book, Designing for Growth, by Jeanne Liedtka and Tim Ogilvie.
Liedtka and Ogilvie summarize design thinking in four questions to ask when handling a problem. The first is, "What is?" Schachter writes, "in developing new ideas, we often rush to engage the future, but in fact we find clues to the future in dissatisfactions with the present." The next question is "What if?" It should include the myriad possibilities for the future. Third is "What wows?" It "encourages us to winnow down the ideas generated into something that packs a wallop," Schachter writes. The last question is "What works?" Ideas have to be tested.

ECS Data Management
The U.S. Extended Continental Shelf (ECS) Project is a multi-agency collaboration whose goals are to determine and define the extent of the U.S. continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles (nm). Under international law as reflected in the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), every country is entitled to a continental shelf extending 200 nm from the coastline. The extended continental shelf (ECS) is the area that lies beyond this 200 nm limit where the U.S. has sovereign rights to the resources of the seafloor and sub-seafloor.
The process to determine the outer limits of the ECS involves the analysis of data that describe the depth, shape, and geophysical characteristics of the seabed and sub-seafloor, as well as the thickness of the underlying sediments. The specific types of data that need to be collected and analyzed include bathymetric data, seismic reflection and refraction data, other geophysical data such as magnetic and gravity data, and geologic samples.
In 2007, the U.S. Extended Continental Shelf Task Force designated the National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC) (now the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)) as the Data Management lead for the U.S. ECS Project and archival location for all data related to this project.
The ECS Task Force is an interagency body headed by the U.S. Department of State (DOS), with co-vice chairs from the Department of Interior (DOI) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Participants in this Task Force include the: the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), NOAA, the Executive Office of the President, Joint Chiefs of Staff, U.S. Navy, U.S. Coast Guard (USCG), Department of Energy (DOE), National Science Foundation (NSF), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) (formerly Minerals Management Service), and the Arctic Research Commission (USARC).

I. Introduction
This short extract gives you a taste of your personal "Career and Vocation" horoscope by Liz Greene. The small samples taken from various chapters convey an impression of the complete vocation horoscope (18-25 pages) which can be ordered as an E-Horoscope or a bound book in the AstroShop.When we are children, people say to us, "What do you want to be when you grow up?"
