Really? You're going to argue with me about this?
I suppose telling you that both Evan Wells and the person who captured the video can attest to that's what happened since it was Evan whose playthrough we captured and the video editor was the one there setting up the FCP project?
Frankly, I doubt it - I feel you are convinced we're actually lying to you about this minor thing. For what purpose? One gameplay video out of many more that were correctly captured at 30fps.
But I'm not argueing, I'm just stating the fact that this video presents 60 uniques frames per second. Anyone can see that by themselves.
If the source is indeed 30fps that's about 8000 frames coming out of thin air. With no signs of motion interpolation, that you'd have to setup knowingly anyway.
Just stating facts here.
And my point wasn't about this single movie that for some reason doesn't showcase the game with fidelity, but the fact most media shown is fake / doctored / oversampled / ambiguously presented to mislead people.
Add in the fact that it's coming from a Sony studio, which has a long history in these manners (hi2u killzone 2 trailer).
Long story short you'd come out greater by presenting real medias. I'm a grown up, I can handle the aliased truth. At least I'll know what it does really looks like and I would feel I'm not being lied to.

FFS, what a knob upthread.
Who gives a big fat flying **** what frame rate weas used, what render is used, what the graphics are, what the gameplay dynamic is.
In the end, you're either going to have a great experienceor you're not. It's apparent from UC3 that ND has lost the mojo, the will or the desire to produce another classic. Moving on is likely their best bet.
Hey, not all the Bond movies, Raiders movies, Star Wars movies or other franchises are perfect from film to film.
Hammer ND for poor technical support, for failure to meet deadlines, sure. But get of the ********* framerate from a game that's fine as is, and move on with your sad, sorry, crappy excuse for a life.
One suspects the company is balls-in busy. So let'em get on with things.

What irritates me is that Arne chooses to waste his and our time by replying to petty things like THIS, instead of attempting to address the concerns we have about Uncharted 3.
When is the flashback map pack coming out?
What is being looked into for the next patch, if anything?
Will there be any holiday bonuses like we had with Uncharted 2?
Most of us couldn't care less about the framerate. No offense to those of you who do care about it, but **bleep** man. Arne replies 4 times to this thread, but says nothing about Uncharted 3. But don't worry, it hasn't been forgotten... -___-

Hello, Just try calling the garbage collector after you feel all the necessary work is being done. To call the garbage collector you can add the following code to your source file. Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime(); rt.gc(); I feel this code can be inserted before the place where you are invalidating the session or at the end of that particular thread. I dont know whether this will solve your problem. But I feel it is worth giving a try. regards shanmugam k.

Currently, eavesdropping and signal intelligence collection of fax communications is ever easier. The communication is unprotected, with telecom providers transforming fax communications into an IP-based form. National traffic is increasingly routed through foreign links and users never know via what network in which country their documents are routed – and intercepted!
Even in this age of the Internet and cloud computing government, defence and intelligence organizations use this OmniCrypt™ solution for their worldwide exchange of fax documents up to the highest classification level. This makes intercepted documents totally worthless.
As the Encryptor 525 is a dedicated high-end encryption device that complements any existing infrastructure, the customer's investment in existing fax machines is protected: The Encryptor 525 can be connected to existing fax machines and networks such as PSTN, IP, satellite, and even HF radio.
The operation is fully autonomous; users do not notice any difference from the normal process of sending fax documents. The encryption hardware itself is protected against tampering.
Telecom providers increasingly convert transmissions to fax-over IP and back to analogue at the receiving end. This makes it much easier for various third parties to intercept and read unsecured documents.
The Encryptor 525 offers utmost protection of transferred documents by ensuring that any intercepted information is utterly worthless. The Encryptor 525 is extremely simple to connect to existing fax machines and can be used anywhere in the world.
The benefits of the Encryptor 525 include a unique broadcast function, which allows a fax message to be encrypted and automatically sent to a group of predefined recipients, as well as a secure mailbox, which prevents unauthorized persons from reading incoming confidential messages.

Are we the only ones to have suffered from the cold and humidity of the last few months? The only ones to dream of more clement weather?
Even with electronic thermostats in the house, we would get a chill when the sun set. A colleague spoke to us about radiant heating, but with electricity rather than heating oil.

Susanne: OutsidersMature
Whilst the main group of humans were out of a hunt I took the chance to get to know the new good vamp on the scene. He was busy perusing a wide selection of books in a secluded corner quite alone. All the others seemed too scared to go anywhere near him, even some of the other vampires seemed to get a bad vibe from him and kept their distance. Despite my initial bad vibe, from the way he was acting he seemed pretty harmless so I walked up to him, my blade still in my hand so that I could attack if need be. I cleared my throat and only then did he look up from his book into my eyes.
"Its you again…. What?" he asked in a neutral voice, I squatted down in front of him drinking in his appearance as if by doing so I could gain a better understanding of whether his intentions of helping were indeed pure. He had long messy dark hair and a slim figure however is eyes were old eyes, eyes that had seen pain, suffering and the same kind of persona I emanated from myself. Closed off that is.
"You know," I began, sitting down "… you and me are very alike"
"In what way?" he asked sceptically, he obviously thought I was like the rest of them in this place,
"Outsiders" I said simply, "like we don't fit into place anywhere, not even here, even when this is the resistance against bad vampires."
"You don't know anything about me, you may be my kind but I don't trust any of my kind."
I laughed softly, "You see, nor do I. I'm better off alone and I am guessing you feel the same way about yourself?" I questioned, getting slowly to my feet, still twisting and turning my blade around my fingers.
"Sure whatever…" he said a mixture of confusion and slight annoyance and something I couldn't quite comprehend plastered all over his face as he went back to his book.
I walked away from the new guy, engrossed in my own thoughts that I knocked headlong into a random human male who was walking by.
"Watch It Vampire!" He snapped glaring daggers at me and her knife drawn, I stared him down, my blade in my hand.
"Whatever" I muttered, breaking my eye contact with him and deciding that causing friction was not going to get me anywhere, I lowered my blade and made to leave muttering as I did so, "Humans, seriously need to work on their trust issues."
"What was that, Susanne?" He said, grabbing my arm and pressing a blade to my throat in what he thought was a threatening manner, even though he knew I was not scared of him and had no quarrels fighting back if needs be.
"I don't trust vampires, as far as I can throw them" said the man
"Have you ever tried to throw a vampire?" I muttered back jokingly but he remained serious.
"Don't push it vampire"
"Or what!" I said pulling myself back up to my fullest height and raising up my blade to show I wasn't one that could be pushed around, "Or what? You gonna pull off my head... I'd like to see you try." the human seemed to see some sense and back down.
I turned and walked away muttering under my breath as I went, "humans needed to realise that we were on their side and were not scum and to put some trust in us" I growled but I knew I was wasting my breath.

You bought your Corvette because its dependability and long-lasting quality appealed to your senses; so why would you be okay with second best when it comes to great quality auto parts? Car aficionados know that a brand you can trust is built into each Chevrolet, and understand that only the highest quality replacement Corvette parts will suffice when maintenance needs to be done. Anyone who operates a Chevrolet knows that when it comes to repairing their car, truck, or SUV only the highest quality replacement parts will do. Your Chevrolet dealership isn't the only place to buy genuine or original equipment quality parts to repair your Corvette.
If none of our cars or trucks had steering systems, then we'd all drive in a straight line. Inspired by our own human body, the Chevrolet Corvette ball joint resembles the ball and socket joint that connects our upper arm to our shoulder. Ball joints are connected to each control arm, and are a vast improvement over king pinsbecause they allow for rotation in three dimensions rather than just forward and backward. Rather than turning the spindle on just one plane, ball joints give the wheel carriers on your car or truck the ability to camber.
Trust in the value of the parts you get from carpartsdiscount.com and realize incredible savings on all your upcoming repairs. Get your Corvette back on the road with the highest quality replacement parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount. Don't let a broken Ball Joint spell the end of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't risk lowering its resale value by buying anything but the highest quality repair parts. When it comes to Chevrolet Corvette Ball Joint parts, you can find them for 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001, 2000, 1999, 1998, 1997, 1996, 1995, 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991, 1990, 1989, 1988, 1987, 1986, 1985, 1984, 1982, 1981, 1980, 1979, 1978, 1977, 1976, 1975, 1974, 1973, 1972, 1971, 1970, 1969, 1968, 1967, 1966, 1965, 1964, 1963 models by clicking the appropriate year below.

New Delhi, Nov 20 (UNI) Expressing concern over the economic slowdown during interaction with BJP Prime Ministerial candidate L K Advani here today, Federation of Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) suggested a slew of monetary and financial and fiscal measures for boosting growth momentum and bringing back investor confidence in the country's economy.
In a note given to the Opposition Leader, FICCI president Rajeev Chandrasekhar wanted reduction in cash reserve ratio by one percentage point to 4.5, the level seen in 2004 and in Reserve Bank's lending rate by 50 basis points to 7 per cent immediately and 5 per cent in the near term.
He also sought reduction by 200 basis points in the rate at which banks park their excess liquidity with the RBI, cut in bank rate by 100 basis points, and bringing down statutory liquidity ratio (SLR) from 24 to 22 per cent.
In the financial sector, the industry chamber wanted stabalisation funds for sectors where risk aversion has suddenly shot up and liquidity is not forthcoming. Banks must completely deliver on all sanctioned loan limits to corporates, it said.
Mr Chandrasekhar said private sector should not be crowded out from credit markets with liquidity being used for fertiliser and petroleum subsidies and sought increase in long term liquidity to corporates.
FICCI wanted focus on foreign direct investment which another industry chamber feared could decline by 20 per cent in the 200 billion dollars targeted this year. It also wanted government to attract sovereign funds (SWFs).
The apex chamber urged government to announce tax incentives for investment, enhance depreciation levels and introduce investment allowance.
It wanted hike in custom duties to protect domestic industry which, it said, is faced with a serious threat of dumping of goods in the Indian market by the Chinese manufacturers.
FICCI said large infrastructure projects could help in reviving economic activities and growth, suggesting the government to invest an additional Rs 100,000 crore per year on it.
It wanted reforms in agriculture to check inflationary pressures on economy and push for alternative sources of energy.
The chamber wanted the country to stop export of raw materials, saying these resources should be used for undertaking value addition within the country.

What immediate changes would you like to see, if you were hired for this position?
User Submitted Interview Answers
I don't believe I would change anything immediately. I think it is important for me to learn your processes and procedures and why they are in place prior to me trying to impart my ways.
I don't know if what changes need to be made but if some need to be made I will try to find the best way to change it.
I would analyze the metrics set forth by the pharma company and determine if there is a potential for improvement. If there is, I would explore what improvement process would be the best, then execute that PI plan.
I wold like to see more time to coach the partners that are struggling in areas I would also like to see more staff.
I would not make any immediate changes in the beginning. I would like a chance to review the current process and make small changes if needed.

Tell me about a time when you took charge of a meeting. How were the results of your actions?
User Submitted Interview Answers
Held meeting regarding a theme party.. It was excellent.
I have facilitated meetings quite frequently. When those opportunities arise, I begin with an agenda of specific items to be discussed and timelines for each. I have also reached out to the group involved in the meeting to see if there are any concerns they may feel important to include. This helps meetings to result in efficiency and effectiveness to accomplish the objective for the meeting.
Outcome was good and encouraging. Charge has to be taken when my fellow mate met with accident,
Again, leading several subcommittees, I have led these committee meetings with respect for others time by keeping the group focused on the topic at hand. I begin and end the meetings promptly while allowing adequate time for discussion.
A sales meeting just getting everyone amped up showing them what they make and what they could make and how I benefit of a positive attitude changed everything.

Tell me when you have delegated tasks effectively.
User Submitted Interview Answers
I have been a project lead many times on events and activities. Although I am the lead, I know there are others that are better at certain tasks necessary to complete the project/organize the event. So I reach out to them and ask them for their assistance and expertise to create the best outcome we can have.
From the time I was given the opportunity to lead a group of people.
Leading 5 different sub committees to achieve a certification is one that requires input from several contributing parties. I generally chose the individuals who I feel would best complete the task in the specified timeline.
I find the task that is most appropriate for the employee who has the skill set to form that I find the task that is most appropriate for the employee who has the skill set to form that task.
In order to plan events, complete our call lists, or give all the tours we had on campus, I had to delegate tasks daily. I truly believe in raising leaders within a team to grow. I think delegating is a way to empower the workers you have.

Tell me about a time when you took charge of a situation, but the outcome was disappointing?
User Submitted Interview Answers
Tasked with a project for the entire corporation, a large collaborative effort was needed to complete the project. At the halfway point of the project it was decided that the corporation was no longer going to move in that direction and instead were going to change efforts. The work that had been done prior was simply discarded. It was disappointing that the project was dropped, but was hopeful that sometime in the future it can be resurrected and completed.
Arranged a party function for kids .. A magic show but kids were more interested in games and pool.
Unfortunately never happened.
I took on the responsibility of organizing a group of ladies to serve as hostesses. My communication was not effective with all members in the group. I learn from the experience to make sure that each part of the team, had clear understanding on their roles.
I recently wrote a business plan for the development of the neuroscience service line complete with power point for presentation and the plan was declined by the senior leadership team on the basis on recent merger.

When have you had to give an employee a poor performance review?
User Submitted Interview Answers
I had to give an employee a poor performance when they did not follow the procedures and it cost the department.
One employee had will issue in performing so had to give him about is poor performance review, made him understand to improve on it. He understood the information and improved his performance.
I had a student worker who was late to work almost every day. She had a lot of health issues and family problems, but her work ethic suffered and became worse over time. I had to have a difficult discussion with her about being late regardless of situations at home. I am an empathetic person and felt bad, but knew that our university was being affected by her lack of effort.
I generally will give a poor performance review if the employee has demonstrated that they deserve this. For instance, as a nurse manager, I would review the overall performance, then I would look to see if they had any coaching sessions and determine from there if they either made improvements or it needed to be addressed in the performance review.
When they're constantly late with a bad attitude.

Tell me about a time when you had to encourage a fellow team member. How was your encouragement received?
User Submitted Interview Answers
Team member was having skill issue, gave him enough training and gave him full encouragement. Encouragement was received in positive way and the result was perfect.
I had a co worker who needed a lot of encouragement when students chose not to attend our university. She was an allumni and felt offended when they didn't see our school as the right choice. I was able to encourage and motivate her by explaining reasons why it was a benefit that the student hadn't chose our university. When she was able to see the benefits and how they outweighed the decision the student had made, she was encouraged.
I would explain the task, show how the task would be easier done a certain way by hands on demosration which should encourage them to do well.
I am always honest when providing feedback and I am able to have crucial conversations in a non-threatening but encouraging format.
They were very negative so I can turn that frown upside down and made them smile and told them just because were out of the product doesn't mean we shouldn't recommend another project.

For those of you who remember the last poll I conducted, regarding the inclusion of a Dolby Digital 5.1 soundmix on future Queen DVD's, you should be happy to know that Brian May has seen the results (an overwhelming 86.20% in favor) and has said it *will* be discussed.
I've started a new poll asking the simple question: Which Queen concert would you like to see released on DVD next? To vote, simply click on the below link;http://members.tripod.com/~evilbaby/Queenpoll.htmlPlease vote only once to ensure a fair vote tally. Due to possibly heavy traffic, the page may be down from time to time, so if you encounter a problem, please try again later.When the poll is closed, the results will again be submitted to Queen Productions for consideration.

Phwaaaar !Mature
"Yes, Yes, Yes !" William and Jen got evicted from Beauty and the Geek. Me and Dan were celebrating so much it was a wonder I remembered to tell him we were going to the pool party later.
I hated Jen she was such a bitch. I liked most of the girls on the show but I had no idea how Jen had gotten this far in the game. Besides Jen reminded me of Kathy from our year.
Theres always that one girl is'nt there, in every class, in every school. She would be a the party tonight surrounded by a hoard of desperate boys, showing off her new bikini and laughing at a ridiculosly high pitch. I will of course loose it and hit her one day but she would make such a drama over it. We had been quite good freinds once but then she changed into the worlds biggest slut and I met Jamie and Dan.
A knock starteled both of us half way through a converstaion about who we hoped would win the overall show. I got up to let Jamie in.
"Hey Jay!" I said opening the door. It wasnt Jamie. After about five seconds awkward pause
"I have your cat" The old lady thrust a Huge black cat into my arms.
"Oh, Thank you. I hope he didnt cause you and problems."
The old lady just glared at me, turned and walked back down the path. Normally i get on ok with old people.
I looked at the giant moggy who just looked up cutely into my eyes and miowed.
Dan poped his head round the corner "Jay?"
"Nope, old lady with Shadowfax" The fat cat climbed out of my arms and trotted away like nothing had happened.
Another knock came. Maybe it would be the old lady with Sasha this time. I opened the door. This time it was Jamie. I stoped and laughed. Her face was so sour she looked like a cat caught in a monsoon.
She stormed in and threw her coat on the floor, revealing our hidious morron school uniform.
"Yes they made me wear it for the flute" She complained. She sqirmed out of the huge pullover and wiped her feet on it. "Oppsy daisy" She said continuing to wipe her feet. "HEY DAN!" She called through to the lounge.
"Hey Jay". He walked through into the hall with another can of Kick.
"Just going to get changed before we get there." She made her way up the stairs and straight into dans room with her bag.
"God I better get changed too. You getting changed at your place when we pick up your bikini?"
"Yeh well unless you have a spare bikini" I laughed.
"Ok, Ok good point. Come on we'll go to my parents room as 'her royal highness' has taken mine." He gestured towards his room. I followed him upstairs as Jamie had already locked Dans door. "Lets hope she aproves of my chocie of reading materials." He sniggered.
"But Jamie likes Kerrang, she..." It took me a couple of seconds to work out that he meant a different kind of magazine. I laughed too.
When we were in his parents room I sat on the bed whilst he grabbed his swiming shorts from the laundry room and went into their en-suit. As soon as he left the main bedroom I got up and started snooping through the various picture frames on the windowsill. I started to giggle looking at the photos of Dan growing up. There was a picture of his seventh birthday party. I was in it wearing a pink dress (Major cringe). He still had short brown hair in that photo and he was kind if chubby.
I was still holding it when he came back into the room. I giggled again not looking away from the photo and said "Awww piccy of ickle chubby Danny" He snatched the picture off me.
"Real funny Ez" He grumbled putting the picture back into place. I looked acros at him. My eyes widened and I think my Jaw dropped a little.
Stood in front of me was definatly not 'ickle chubby Danny' He was standing there in Just his swim shorts. Ridiculosly hot body and cute smile. I tore my eyes away before they dared stroll a little further down than his six pack.
"Ez . You ok?"
"Yeh im fine. Totally fine, I was just , uhhh, looking out off the window." Jeesh I sounded like a mong. I tried to focus on his eyes. His sparkling clear yet deep looking blue eyes. Since when did Dan become so hot. I knew he was stong you could see he had nicely built arms, but i had no idea about the six pack.
I realise how shallow girls are. We do asume the body builders are the ones with six packs. We never think twice about a thin guy having a pure SEX body. We went into Dans room where Jamie had changed into her bikini and put some decent clothes over it.
Took your time she said leaning against his wall. She refused to sit down in here because she says she just doesnt wanna know what she could be sitting on in a guys room. Especially not Dans.
I walked over to her while dan went to pick a shirt from his cuboard.
"Oh my god. Girl have you seen that six pack." I asked her
"On Dan idiot."
"Hey Dan?" She called him. I cringed expecting her to say something like 'Ez thinks youve got a sexy body, lets see it'.
"Yeh?" He turned his head.
"Just face me for a sec." He turned to face us. "Oh. It's ok. Just thought I saw something on the front of your shorts. Never mind" I was suprised obviously those acting lessons she had had forced upon her were paying off she sounded totally convincing. He bought it and went back to his wardrobe.
"Oh my god. When did he start working out?" She asked.

Abbie: I Think I May Be Going Mad
Keela tries to teleport us all back to the creatathedral. For a moment I see it, then I get sucked back. I close my eyes tight. I feel myself flying through nothingness. I open my eyes, but there's just black. Just blackness, nothing else, just black...
I land with a thud. I open my eyes slowly. I'm in an alley way, in fact, the same alley way I've just left. But it's dark now, and it suddenly seems spookier.
"Keela?" I call weakly. No answer, just silence. "KEELA" I yell. Silence. "KEELA! WHERE ARE YOU!?!?" Silence. I can't take this. I'm not used to being on my own, and am also scared of the dark. "Keela? Flames?" I sob uselessly.
"Ahh! Who's there?" I scream, my voice shaking
Oh, poor little Abigail. Do you not know who I am?
"N-n-no. P-please, don't hurt me" I beg
Now, now. Why would your own concience hurt you, hmm?
"Aaaahh! Go away!"
Why? I can help you
"Oh, err. How? Can you tell me what's going on, where am I?"
Well, lets see now... Abbie, Abbie, Abbie... dum de dum... Aha! Here we are. Your dying Abigail, there's no way back...
"AAAAHHHHH!" my high pitched shriek pierces the air "Get out of my head!"
"No! Go away!"
As you please...
I sit, rocking back, and forth, and back, and forth. I'm in the middle of nowhere, in the pitch black darkness. Hearing voices. I'm going mad... I start to cry.

"Superb Care"
About: Royal Oldham Hospital Royal Oldham Hospital Oldham OL1 2JH
Posted by Anonymous
I presented myself to A&E with a heart attack in February 2016. The care I received in that department was second to none.
I was transferred to the CCU ward that day and stayed for 6 days where I was treated with compassion and professionalism in the most friendly but respectful way.
This concern even stretched to being offered a cup of tea and some toast at 4am when I couldn't sleep one night.
Splendid staff to whom I am most grateful.

Webcam C250 <---------------------- link to software Select full installer from the dropdown box where is says select file. This software will include the latest drivers as well as the software you want. It will also install Logitech Vid a, Logitech video messaging program similar to MS's Live Messenger. All Logitech C series cams use this software, software version 2.10.1224.0. Again this software works with all Logitech cams including builtin . There is a strong possibility that all your builtin cams are Logitech products despite being called HP webcam. Logitech supplies builtin cams for the notebook\netbook industry. The above software works with my Acer Orbicam made by Logitech. It can't hurt to install this software to try it. It is free and you can uninstall it if it doesn't work. What you describe in your last paragraph is Win 7 detecting the plug in cam and loading drivers for it. You absolutely can download the software direct from Logitech. See the link above. BTW, if you right click the webcam entry under imaging devices in Device Manager and choose properties you can determine the manufacturer of your builtin cameras. It is most likely a Logitech product.

Originally posted on The Outside Corner | Last updated 10/22/12
If your team has two of the best franchise cornerstones in baseball under the age of 30 signed long-term, how do you lose 98 games in a season involving both of those players? Simple: they combine to play 182 games, your team's pitching staff is an absolute disaster, your manager is a buffoon, and the team's front office is incompetent. Ladies and gentlemen, your 2012 Colorado Rockies! All isn't lost in Colorado, though. Needs The Rockies actually did a good option at transitioning to younger players in 2012, giving Wilin Rosario the majority of the playing time behind the plate instead of veteran Ramon Hernandez, trading Marco Scutaro at the trade deadline and giving his playing time to DJ LeMehieau, and starting Josh Rutledge at short in the second half with Troy Tulowitzki out. But there are still a lot of places where the Rockies might need to look to outside of the organization, most notably first base. Todd Helton missed a ton of time, resulting in iron gloved third basemen Jordan Pacheco and Chris Nelson both getting a lot of playing time to exploit their mediocrity. Of course, Helton is under contract next season, so he'll need to retire to free up the position and the money tied to it. The Rockies rotation is actually quite young (despite its awfulness), and acquiring veterans (Jamie Moyer, Jeremy Guthrie, Jonathan Sanchez) like they did last season completely bombed. Possible Options I don't think they'll do much, honestly. Colorado made a minor splash last season with Michael Cuddyer, and there really isn't room for someone like that this season on the team. If they do indeed look for a first baseman, it'll probably be a lower tier player unless Helton retires. Considering that the team has both Pacheco and Nelson on the team, I doubt that any of the lower tier players around (Carlos Lee, Casey Kotchman) would be much of an upgrade, if any. But knowing this team's front office, they'll spend foolishly on what they don't need, and I'm thinking they're going to make a run on pitching. I don't think the Rockies would look at much high-priced talent, but I can definitely see them throwing too much money at a cooked like a steak Derek Lowe and salivating at the prospect of his no longer elite sinker at Coors Field. Trade Options Ramon Hernandez is as good as gone in my mind. You just don't pay $3.2 million for a backup catcher that could start for a handful of teams in the league, especially when your starter is a young, pre-arb guy. I think they'd be wise to shop the unnecessary, banged up Michael Cuddyer and keep rolling with the youth movement and Charlie Blackmon. You know what else they should do, but probably won't? Shop relievers Rafael Betancourt and Matt Belisle after solid 2012 campaigns. But of course, both are making over $4 million last year, making them a lot less attractive to a smart GM. Trade Targets While the Rockies do have a lot of young pitching, I'm not sure how *good* that young pitching is. I think Drew Pomeranz could evolve into a top of the rotation starter, Jhoulys Chacin has major league success, and Juan Nicasio could be something good...but for the others, I don't see much. Christian Friedrich has been underwhelming since a great 2009, Alex White, Tyler Chatwood, and Josh Outman scream mediocrity to me, and Jorge de la Rosa is still working his way back from Tommy John. Getting more guys that miss bats would be a better thing for the Rockies, because as 2012 proved, any contact can turn disastrous in Coors Field. [follow]

Technically speaking, the major U.S. benchmarks have thus far absorbed a slight volatility uptick. Consider that the S&P 500 has reversed respectably from first support (2,381) at this week's low, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average has concurrently maintained the 50-day moving average.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average was trading in negative territory late Wednesday afternoon, weighed down by a late-afternoon slump in shares of Boeing Co., Walt Disney Co., and 3M Co. The trio of Dow components combined were cutting about 45 points from the blue-chip gauge, which was off 50 points, or 0.2% at 20,924. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 index traded near break-even levels, while the Nasdaq Composite was flirting with another record close, up 0.1% at 6,126. The downdraft for the Dow, which has been under pressure all day, accelerated on reports that Boeing halted flights for its fleet of 737 planes due to problems with its turbine engines. MarketWatch has not interdependently confirmed those reports. Meanwhile, Disney's shares were down after the company disappointed analysts' expectations late-Tuesday on revenues. Shares of 3M Co. were off 0.6%--the third worst performer on a point basis in the Dow.
3M stock price target raised to $202 from $190 at Stifel Nicolaus
3M Co. on Tuesday said it raised its full-year profit outlook as first-quarter results beat Wall Street expectations, boosted by growth in its core industrial unit and a resurgent electronics business.
3M's stock climbs 0.3%, reaches all-time intraday high of $194.95 earlier
3M's stock swings lower, drops 0.5% after being up as much as 2.7% earlier

Tell me about 'em! Look, don't want to cock a leg on anyone's parade but… hello? Remember me? Apparently not, ever since His Royal Highness bawled his way into the nation's heart - in, as far as I'm concerned, a somewhat immature and attention-seeking manner.'I mean, I adore him - honest - but being upstaged in the cheeky-chappy stakes like this just isn't cool. William even called him a "little bit of a rascal" on the telly. But how - pray tell? By lying in a crib burping and gurgling all day? I could do that with my eyes shut, but I'm far too busy getting up to REAL rascal antics. Like nicking the corgis' grub and pretending to lick my naughty bits whenever Wills's gran pops in to coo.'Oh - gather round, everyone. Kate's dad's got a new iPhone and he's coming over all Mario Testino. Suppose I better give it some of that bright-eyed-and-bushy-tailed shtick. Word of warning, Grandpa. You'd better not be using one of those apps that turn people into aliens or something equally "hilarious". Cos old Lupo here will go LOOOOOPPPPYYYY. Like this! *sticks tongue out insanely*'Hang on - who's the blonde number, pretending to be asleep on the grass? "Ooh, look at me with my lovely sleek long hair, supine in golden dappled slumber." Give it up, love. This ain't no Timotei advert. What, me - tongue hanging out cos I secretly fancy you? Don't flatter yourself, sweetheart. I'm actually an intellectual, highly spiritual chap. You won't find me panting around after physical fulfillment like some hormone-crazed Labradoodle.'Anyhoo - listen up, Georgie boy. Take it from one who's learned the hard way: 'Fame is a fickle food, on a shifting plate.' Emily Dickinson, that. Told you I was an intellectual. Go on, Google it. Oh, sorry, forgot - you can't type yet. Or read. I get the last arf-arf!'As told to Ian RamseyIF YOU LIKED THIS, YOU'LL LOVE: Film: Our royal cover star corgi 'interviewed' Some real-life nursing advice for new mother the Duchess of Cambridge Do you remember these other little royal cuties?
