Boston Red Sox: The 5 Greatest First Basemen in Team HistoryApril 18, 2013
Boston Red Sox: The 5 Greatest First Basemen in Team History
The Boston Red Sox have had many outstanding players in their history. Having recently ranked the catchers, it's time I move on to the five greatest first basemen in the history of the team.
Current first baseman Mike Napoli is in his first full season playing the position. While he has had an excellent start to the season, he has a long way to go if he ever wants to be mentioned in the same breath as other legendary Boston first-sackers.
Qualifying as an all-time great Boston first baseman is not just about statistics and awards. It's also about contributing to the team in other ways and the legacy left behind.
Click through to see the five greatest first basemen in the history of the Red Sox.
5. Pete Runnels
Played for Boston: 1958-1962
Boston Stats: 732 G, .320 BA, 29 HR, 249 RBI, 825 H, 378 BB
Even though the left-handed hitting Runnels spent several seasons (1958-1960) in Boston as the team's primary second baseman, he also played enough at first to qualify for fifth place this list.
Even when he started at other positions, he spent plenty of time at first because of his versatile defensive ability. In his years as a second baseman, he was often shifted to first late in games to replace Dick Gernert, who was not nearly as nimble a fielder.
In addition to his glove, Runnels was an even better hitter. He won two batting titles (1960 and 1962) and had a combined .408 OBP during his time in Boston.
He is tied with Jimmie Foxx for fifth place on the all-time Boston career batting average list, behind just Ted Williams, Wade Boggs, Tris Speaker and Nomar Garciaparra.
Runnels doesn't fit the mold of the classic first baseman, but his contributions while in a Boston uniform make him one of the best to ever man the position for the team.
4. George Scott
Played for Boston: 1966-1971, 1977-1979
Boston Stats: 1,192 G, .257 BA, 154 HR, 562 RBI, 1,088 H, 418 BB
"Boomer" hit 27 home runs as a rookie in 1966 and in doing so became the first star African-American position player in the history of the Red Sox.
He was a key player for the 1967 "Impossible Dream" team but endured perhaps the worst full season in major league history the following year, batting just .171 with three home runs and 25 RBI in 124 games. Fortunately, that was a one-year blip in an otherwise excellent career.
The quirky player called his home runs "taters" and often wore his batting helmet in the field as a precaution because a fan once threw items towards him during a road game.
Despite having the physique of a lumbering slugger, Scott was actually a graceful fielder and won three of his eight career Gold Gloves in the field for the Red Sox.
He was very popular during his nine years in Boston and in 2012 was named a second reserve on the All-Fenway Team by the franchise as part of the stadium's 100-year anniversary.
3. Jake Stahl
Played for Boston: 1903, 1908-1910, 1912-1913
Boston Stats: 486 G, .277 BA, 21 HR, 228 RBI, 456 H, 50 3B
Stahl came up as a rookie catcher for the Red Sox in 1903 before being sold to the Washington Senators.
Upon his return to Boston in 1908, he became one of the best first basemen and managers in the history of the team.
The right-hander struck out a lot for a player in the Dead Ball Era, leading the league twice with Boston. This included a league-leading 128 strikeouts in 1910, which stood as a major league record until 1938, when the Boston Braves' Vince DiMaggio whiffed 134 times.
Despite the holes in his swing, Stahl was also considered a power hitter and led the American League in home runs in 1910 with 10.
For all his accomplishments on the field, he was also an excellent skipper for Boston, leading the team to 105 wins and the World Series title in 1912. He was relieved of the position halfway through the following season after a sub-.500 start.
Despite his excellent play, some felt that Stahl took himself out of the lineup too often. According to Baseball-Lingo.com, the baseball term "jaking," the refusal to play because of a real or imagined ailment, was named after the Boston first baseman.
2. Mo Vaughn
Played for Boston: 1991-1998
Boston Stats: 1,046 G, .304 BA, 230 HR, 752 RBI, 1,165 H, 519 BB
Vaughn is one of the greatest players, regardless of position, to ever play for the Red Sox.
The bulky left-handed hitting slugger was a 1989 first-round draft choice.
He came to national attention during the 1993 season when he hit a home run after visiting a sick child in a hospital and promising to try to hit one out during that night's game.
His best season came in 1996, when he hit .326 with 44 home runs and 143 RBI in 161 games while winning the American League MVP.
Never a wizard with the glove, he more than made up for it with his bat. His .936 OPS with Boston ranks only behind Ted Williams, Jimmie Foxx, Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz in team history.
He left via free agency following the 1998 season, still in the prime of his career. Unfortunately, injuries and declining skills allowed him to play only four more seasons after his tenure in Boston ended.
1. Jimmie Foxx
Played for Boston: 1936-1942
Boston Stats: 887 G, .320 BA, 222 HR, 788 RBI, 1,051 H, 624 BB
Foxx, who is one of the greatest right-handed hitters to ever play the game, had some of the best seasons of his Hall of Fame career as Boston's first baseman.
The Society for American Baseball Research's John Bennett wrote that Foxx was traded by manager Connie Mack to Boston following the 1935 season after 11 years with the Philadelphia Athletics because the team desperately needed the money.
Having led the American League in home runs in three of four seasons prior to coming to Boston, Foxx picked right up with the Red Sox.
His best season came in 1938, when he hit .349 with 50 home runs and 175 RBI in 149 games. He led the league in batting average and RBI but missed out on the Triple Crown that year because the Detroit Tigers' Hank Greenberg hit 58 bombs of his own.
Unfortunately, Foxx's success in Boston didn't translate into pennants for the team. The Red Sox mustered four second-place finishes during his tenure but were overshadowed by the powerful New York Yankees.

NEW DNA proof confirms Royal Family is German Bloodline DescendantBritain's Queen Elizabeth Royal German Secret Family Past exposed Blood DNA
100 years ago the Royal Family changed there name to Windsor to hide there German name/heritage.
Britain's Queen Elizabeth II 63 years, the longest-ruling monarchy with German Blood DNA
ALL GERMAN due to the act of settlement
A recent discovery in August 2012, of King Richard III dead body, was found under a car park in Leicester. The search for Truth was initiated by the Looking for Richard project with the support of the Richard III Society.
So where did the current British queen come from?
She was born in London, served as a mechanic in the war and prefers dogs to humans. How much more British could Her Majesty be?
How German is the Queen?
Later, as a result of the First World War (1914–18), the empires of his first cousins Tsar Nicholas II of Russia and Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany fell while the British Empire expanded to its greatest effective extent.
After the war, Philip was granted permission by George VI to marry Elizabeth in 1947. Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark, took British citizenship and became a naturalised British subject, adopting the surname Mountbatten from his maternal grandparents.
The word "English" is derived from the Angles, of Anglo-Saxon fame. In AD 410, a range of German, Danish, and Dutch tribes that we sloppily call the Anglo-Saxons moved in from across the Whale Road. Not forgetting the Vikings either, who brought Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish blood to swathes of Britain. So, to be honest, is to acknowledge that this country has had the most profound and close genetic and cultural ties with the people of Germany and Scandinavia for over 1,500 years.

Passion, infidelity, social climbing, and one very special white rose weave a seductive narrative in this intelligent and tender novel.
At 48 Marian Kahn, a professor of history at Columbia, has reached a comfortable perch. Married, wealthy, and the famed discoverer of the eighteenth-century adventuress Lady Charlotte Wilcox, she ought to be content. Instead she is horrified to find herself profoundly in love with 26-year-old Oliver, the son of her eldest friend. When Marian's cousin, the snobbish Barton, announces his engagement to Sophie, a graduate student in Marian's department, Marian, Oliver, and Sophie find their lives woefully entangled and their hearts turned in unfamiliar directions. All three of them will learn that love may seldom be straightforward, but it's always a gift.
From the West Village to the Upper East Side, from the Hamptons to Millbrook, The White Rose is at once a nuanced and affectionate reimagining of Strauss' beloved opera, Der Rosenkavalier, and a mesmerizing novel of our own time and place.

"This excellent literary mystery [unfolds] with authentic detail in a rarified contemporary Manhattan...intriguing and beautiful." (Publishers Weekly)
"This book is as slow as christmas!"
I work and listen to Books (instead of music) for 12+ hours a day. With this book I found myself having to turn it off just to finish work because it was putting me to sleep. *yawn*
SOOO S-L--O-O-O-O-O-W. It just kept dragging on and on.
I do not think the narrator did a bad job. I just think it was a bad story.
"Loved it!"
I thought the narration was excellent.
Oliver; I found him so interesting and I really liked him.
I loved the story.
"Bought by mistake but astonishingly worth it"
Beautifully written and narrated
Great character study and analysis
Lovely story line and development
I look forward to other books for Jean Hanff Korelitz
"Giving this book more than 1 star is generous"
Lots of fluff, struggled to stay awake while trying to finish it. Very boring, and the ending seemed too tamed.

NEW ORLEANS The Boston Celtics are in the midst of their own brand of March Madness these days, as they turned in one of the more bizarre performances this season.
A thing of beauty?
It doesn't matter what you call it.
The Celtics have one word for it a win.
And Saturday's 89-85 win over the New Orleans Hornets in the Big Easy, ways about as tough a victory as the Celtics have managed to pull out this season.
Ray Allen, who had 20 points, put the game away with a pair of free throws with 2.8 seconds to play.
Bosto trailed by as many as 14 points in the first half and fell behind by 15 early in the third, before rallying for the victory.
"To come back the way we came back; to start out the third quarter poorly, I thought it meant a lot to the guys to come back," said Celtics coach Doc Rivers. "They wanted this win and I thought they liked it because a lot of people pitched in."
Among the Celtics contributing to the victory was Glen Davis.
Davis, who grew up in nearby Baton Rouge and starred at LSU, looked very much at home most of the night.
He finished with 20 points off the bench, which included eight during a decisive third quarter surge by the Celtics (49-19) who are now tied with the Chicago Bulls for the best record in the Eastern Conference.
"We haven't got real good wins lately," said Davis. "So this is a good win for us."
While there has been some debate of late about the Celtics being too offensive-minded, their strong showing in the third quarter was fueled in large part because of their ability to take the Hornets out of doing what they wanted to do.
New Orleans' Marco Belinelli had 23 points, with only seven coming in the second half.
And after shooting a shade under 61 percent in the first half, Boston put the defensive deadbolt on New Orleans in the third quarter by limiting them to just 6-for-21 shooting, or 28.6 percent.
"Give the Celtics credit. they picked up their presssure, we couldn't' run a play and they hit some big shots," said New Orleans coach Monty Williams. "Their defensive presence in the third quarter hurt us."
And to some degree, healed some of the wounds that the Celtics were still licking after a dismal 16-point loss the night before at Houston.
While it wasn't Boston's largest margin of defeat this season (that was a 17-point loss at Phoenix on Jan. 28), it was arguably the worst.
Against the Rockets, the Celtics trailed by as many as 29 points.
But Saturday was a different opponent, a different kind of game and fortunately for the Celtics, a different outcome.
"We won this pure defense, man," said Kevin Garnett, who had 12 points and nine rebounds. "Pure defense."
And that defense led to a slew of easy scores for the Celtics, especially in the third quarter.
Following a 3-pointer by Allen that cut New Orleans' lead to 58-47, the Celtics went to work defensively.
The net result was a 20-6 run to end the third, essentially wiping out all the momentum that the Hornets had built up over two-plus quarters.
And in the fourth, Boston continued to display its defensive swagger by forcing 24-second violations, jump-balls and turnovers.
It was a much-needed win for a Boston team that came in having lost four of its last six games.
While much of the attention during Boston's recent skid has focused on Rajon Rondo and the problems he has had, Rondo's role has been just part of the team's overall poor play.
On Saturday, Rondo was actually one of the few bright spots for the Celtics in the first half, when he scored eight points which included a buzzer-beating jumper to end the half that cut New Orleans' lead to 51-40. He suffered a hand injury in the third quarter and missed some action, but was able to return to the floor.
Rondo finished with nine points and five assists on 4-for-8 shooting from the field.
"They were cool. It felt good to hit a shot, more than one," Rondo quipped. "More than one. It was a relief."
The same could be said for the Celtics, getting a much-needed road win - a rarity for them this season when it's a back-to-back set and the second game is on the road.

Profiling Django Middlewares
By : Akshar Raaj
I assume you have a basic understanding of Profiling, what it means and why we use it.
Why this post
Recently I had to profile a Django application which wasn't performing as fast as it should. This application had several custom middlewares too. So it was possible that custom middlewares were the cause of slow performance.
There are some existing Django libraries to profile Django code. eg: Django Debug Toolbar, django-silk , django_cprofile etc. Most of them can profile view code well but they can't profile other middlewares.
I wanted a way to profile middlewares too.

Review for Suddeths Automotive Service
Chrisula C. on 12/14/2012
Chrisula said she came in for an oil change, but they did an unauthorized tire rotation and charged her for it. She said she doesn't drive much, so the tires probably didn't need to be rotated and the place where she purchased her tires would rotate them for free.

Incoming Exchange Study
Students from partner institutions who are interested in studying at NSCAD University for a semester may apply through my.nscad.ca. Please be sure to select "exchange" study as opposed to "visiting" student status. Applications will be reviewed between October 1st and November 1st for the January - April (Winter semester) and between March 15th and April 1st for the September - December (Fall semester). Students from partner institutions must have approval from their home institution to apply for exchange at NSCAD. The mobility coordinator at the home institution should send a notice of endorsement to the Coordinator Off Campus, International and Advising prior to student application upload. NSCAD University's Inbound Exchange Program Fact Sheet.
Outgoing Exchange Study
The following are general requirements that apply to the Off Campus Study Program for NSCAD students:
Transfer students may apply for Exchange Study after the completion of two full-time semesters at the university, in addition to meeting the above-noted requirements. The university's Residency Requirement will apply and may limit participation in Off Campus Study for some transfer students. Exchange credits are transferred credits, and a student may not use excess credits after surpassing the 75 transfer credit maximum. Consult the Registrar for additional information about the residency requirement.
Approval for Exchange Study
In addition to meeting all eligibility requirements for off campus study, a student must meet the following requirements:
Credit will be awarded once a transcript indicating successful completion of the exchange semester has been received from the host institution. The credits will not be calculated into the student's grade point average.
Tuition and fees are paid to NSCAD and must be paid before a student will be permitted to register at a host institution for Exchange Study.
Credits gained in Off Campus Study are considered non-resident credits (transfer credits).
The Office of Student Experience organizes and coordinates the Off Campus Study Program and assists students with application procedures, financial planning, and visa requirements. The student is responsible for arranging travel and accommodations. The Office keeps a set of calendars for institutions with which the university has exchange agreements and reports written by previous off campus study students.
What Is Expected of You?
Participants are expected to document his/her experience of the exchange study in such a way that the record of his/her experience may benefit other students considering such study. This summary will become part of the resources available in the Office of Student Experience to students interested in pursuing these options of study. Students are required to return to the university and to register for at least one semester. A public presentation and submission of a summary of the student's experience is also required. Students should keep a journal during his/her period of off campus study, in which he/she records his/her experiences, impressions, sketches, and other important information and also visually document the experience with photographs and slides. These will form the basis of the public presentation and the written summary report.
Credits taken while on exchange or independent off campus study will not be awarded until the Registrar has been notified by the Coordinator Off Campus, International and Advising that the student has completed the public presentation and has submitted the summary. Tuition is paid to NSCAD and credits earned while on exchange study apply toward NSCAD degrees.
Semester Credits for an Exchange Semester
Students will complete a Learning Agreement prior to commencement of classes that will be evaluated for transfer credits to NSCAD degree program requirements. It is the student's responsibility to communicate with the host institution regarding suitable course selection that meet the degree requirements at NSCAD University. Consultation with an Academic Advisor prior to departure for exchange is strongly recommended. The total semester credits must conform to the university's semester system and will be adjusted where necessary. The credits will be awarded as transfer credits and will not be calculated into the student's Grade Point Average. In no case will more than 15 credits be awarded for a semester of exchange study,
Planning Exchange or Off Campus Study
You should start the research and planning regarding a semester of Exchange or Off Campus Study six to sixteen months in advance of the anticipated period of study. This will involve examining the offerings of various exchange institutions to see which program and institution best fits your intentions for the exchange study, or preparing a proposal of your intended plan of off campus independent study. Planning your financial and travel necessities for the period of study, and researching visa requirements for entering foreign countries is also required. All arrangements must be made, including approval of your program by the appropriate university officials, and payment of fees, before your departure. Many countries will require a receipt for payment of tuition fees before you will be allowed to enter a country or to register at an institution.
Procedures and Considerations
1. Make an appointment with the Coordinator Off Campus, International and Advising to review your program. You should ask any questions you may have concerning eligibility, art history/academic requirements, etc. at this meeting.
2. Submit the application for exchange study by the announced deadline. Include a reasonable idea of the courses you wish to take while on exchange in the proposal.
3. Exchange applicants only must submit a Portfolio of 10-15 digital images, video or other relevant documentation of his/her most recent work.
4. Submit a well-researched and well-written proposal which clearly indicates the intended purpose of the exchange or independent off campus study.
5. Request two full-time faculty members who have worked with you or are familiar with your work to submit recommendations to the Office of Student Experience by the announced deadline using the Faculty Recommendation Form.
Financial Considerations
Before applying for government assistance through the Canada Student Loan Program, the Quebec Student Loan Program or other provincial loan programs for the period of study during which the Exchange study will take place, one should consult with the Director of Financial Aid and Student Counselling. Some provincial loan agencies recognize exceptional expenses for such programs of study and will calculate these into their determinations of the assistance available to a student. Other provincial loan agencies will not provide either loan or bursary assistance to students pursuing programs outside Canada. Without adequate financial resources, students should not attempt Off Campus Study.
One of the most important matters to settle is how and where the student will get money when traveling. In the past, this has sometimes been a problem for students. If the student will be receiving a Canada student loan, it is most important that either he/she signs and negotiates the necessary loan documents before departing or that the student provides a reliable mailing address where documents may be forwarded via registered mail for his/her signature. The student must leave detailed instructions with the Office explaining how his/her bursary and loan balance or any other funds will be forwarded to him/her.
The student may want to give a member of his/her family written authority to deal with his/her bank on his/her behalf. The student must inform his/her bank and the Office of such arrangements.
Students are required to budget an extra $300 to $500 for an emergency fund. This money may be taken with the student or left in a personal bank account in Canada in case the funds are needed quickly. A member of the student's family, given a detailed letter of instructions, could withdraw that amount in an emergency and wire it to the student at once.
Students should note that tuition and fees for the total period of his/her anticipated Exchange / Off Campus Study must be paid before his/her NSCAD registration can be officially completed. Unless the student has paid his/her tuition before leaving, or, in exceptional circumstances, have made alternative arrangements with the Vice-President of Finance, he/she will not be officially registered at the university.
There are a few NSCAD University scholarships available to students who are participating in an Exchange / Off Campus Study Program. Application for scholarships can be made at the time of application for study off campus.
In addition to NSCAD Scholarships, students may find grants and scholarships available from external sources to NSCAD. One should contact the consulate of the country to which he or she plans to travel. In addition, the Canadian Bureau of International Education, of which NSCAD is a member, has resources regarding grants and scholarships on their website at www.cbie.ca.
Exchange / Off Campus Application Deadlines
Some exchange partners only review applications for fall or winter once a year. Please consult with the Coordinator Off Campus, International, and Advising for a list of these schools.
Summer study will be considered on a case by case basis only. Please inquire well in advance of the summer semester to see what may be possible. For some schools our summer semester is a regular semester (ie Australia)
Students should consult the Coordinator Off Campus, International and Advising four to sixteen months in advance of their planned off campus semester.

With tragedies like the stabbing of Athens-Clarke police Sgt. Courtney Gale, or when individuals who allegedly suffer from mental illness become lost or are abducted, the question is not how these things can happen, but how they are not happening more frequently with the recent closings of mental health resources across the state.
In Athens-Clarke County, there is no emergency mental health facility. In addition, some local judges with authority over review of mental illness cases in fact understand little about mental illness and what constitutes a dangerous individual. Our local Department of Family and Children Services has its hands tied in terms of intervening to protect children in the custody of significantly mentally ill parents, who might also have a history of violence and drug or alcohol abuse - a dangerous combination.
As a mental health advocate and an advocate for victims, I can say it is important to make the distinction between people who have an illness and treat it medically, and those who remain in society without medical supervision - and, due to the nature of their illness, do not acknowledge that they, in fact, have an illness.
Not all mentally ill people are dangerous. However, when a significantly mentally ill person loses perspective in connection with that illness, and has a history of violence complicated by drug or alcohol issues, we as a community are waiting for a tragedy to occur.
Mental health therapists and workers struggle to protect mentally ill individuals from themselves and from others without the support of local facilities, agencies and courts. By the time crimes are committed and patients are in the hands of the legal system, it is too late.
How many tragedies will occur in our community before we challenge our local and state governments to provide adequate facilities, training and education on what constitutes a potentially dangerous mentally ill individual, and put adequate safety nets in place?

Everyone has a story to tell...
Need some inspiration. Check out StoryCorps - an organisation in the United States helping to archive the wisdom of generations.
Since 2003 they have recorded more than 35,000 meaningful conversations between two people who know each other (normally couples, relatives or close friends) across the country. The conversations are stored at the Library of Congress. They have an intense focus on collecting, sharing and preserving people's stories.
- You can search and listen to the latest stories.
- Or you can browse the stories using their app and record your own! Record and share the stories that are all around you.
BBC Radio 4 was inspired by StoryCorps and created The Listening Project - which focuses on capturing the nation in conversation. Some of the stories are broadcast on BBC Radio 4 and added to an audio archive, helping to preserve the stories for future generations.
I think Radio 4 controller, Gwyneth Williams sums the idea up really well - hinting at those utterly memorable stories which we are keen to hear about "I'd like to invite listeners to help us catch, broadcast and archive for the nation those rare exchanges that really matter; those conversations that can change the course of a life; that are utterly memorable; that we have all had and never forget."
If you have any questions about submitting your ideas to The Man who bought Stonehenge and other stories do email us at the address above. (Submission deadline - 30 April).

SMITH COUNTY (KYTX) - A Winona couple lost their home and three dogs in a fire Monday afternoon on Devonne Drive off Highway 271, according to the Smith County fire marshal officials.
The fire was reported about 2:30 p.m., and six fire departments including Winona, Red Springs, Chapel Hill, Gladewater, Jackson Heights and Sabine VFDs responded. The Smith County Fire Marshal and Smith County sheriff's officials also responded to the scene.
The fire took about an hour-and-a-half to get under control. The fire began in a back part of the home, and spread quickly because of high winds, officials said.
The home's residents were not at home at the time of the fire, however an official said three pets perished in the fire.
Smith County fire officials are investigating the cause of the fire.

You are so kind. This is why I treasure this board. Ask a question...get an answer with respect and dignity.Not a bazooka to the balls.So thank you.I'm actually going the 3rd week of July. Brewers are on the road. Summerfest is over. Zoo is a great option....Might have to spring for her a car (we're staying in Delafield...20 miles out of Milwaukee). Nothing there to occupy her....gotta get into the city. And....as I said.....I'm not doing anything. I'm prepared to blow off the business side completely to spend time with her.
I don't get away by myself often -- maybe once a year for a week by myself. I've met and had two overnights with a phenomenal young lady. We've already worked out details, and she will join me this summer for 4 days as I head off to a company convention (yes....everyone I work with will be there).Details so far:-- we're flying in separately from different cities-- big age difference (i'm 58, she's 25). Oh...I'm vanilla, she's chocolate.-- every hotel in city is booked by my company. However, I'm staying at a boutique hotel about 20 miles outside of town.-- going to probably one of the LEAST Romantic cities in the U.S........Milwaukee.My dilemma:-- nights are not a problem. But what can I do to keep her entertained the rest of the time. Last thing I want is for her to start counting the minutes until she can leave. Some ideas I've had:-- Reknown Strip Club (Silk) that we can visit one night-- Invite another provider to join us for an evening (challenge.......not a great inventory of ladies in Milwaukee. Sorry ladies....but if you have any recommendations please let me know)-- Indian Owned Casino-- That's about it!Chicago is 90 minutes away, but I'd prefer not to spend my time in the car. And as far as my activities....I could care less about attending any company meetings. I'm there to play, not work.Any suggestions? Help here or PM if easier
but there could also be shopping malls. Spring to let her get a car and have some fun shopping. Also, I can't imagine that a city like Milwaukee won't have some interesting diversions like museums, etc.I've taken along gals to business conventions in the past and never had any squawk from them about finding ways to stay busy during the day while I do my buisness.
If you are there early June don't miss Summerfest Take in a spa get a complete massage for the two of you . Everyone loves a nice poolside with a fancy cold drink . There are some fabulous steak houses in WIand Milwaukee is known for its famous breweries and you can take a riverwalk boat tour and see them.Milwaukee art museum has some great art. Pabst theatre also has live music ( you have to be a serious music lover to go) and I believe you might find a comedy show there too. Good luck in Milwaukee !
Angela is correct the Milwaukee Art center is great its on the lake front and you can walk along the lake front, see if you can go sailing, and ultimately stop in to the Harbor House Restaurant for good seafood. Also Our Zoo is quite nice. There's the Brewers but this year you have to go to Miller Park for the Beer and Brats as the Brewers are have their difficulties (something of an understatement)Jerry of MKE
BELIEVE ME..they will find a way to stay busy..they always do..a hotel with a pool is mandatory..they LOVE to shop..set a limit..they love to jog..exercise..gambling is an option if she enjoys it..i know one thing..she will not sit in the room all day waiting for you..it is a sort of getaway for them..a mini-vacation..she will take full advantage of it..she sounds very special..treat her that way..ladies like her are very rare..consider yourself very lucky..she is too..
You are so kind. This is why I treasure this board. Ask a question...get an answer with respect and dignity.Not a bazooka to the balls.So thank you.I'm actually going the 3rd week of July.

...most providers whom I have taken on biz trips relish the time away from kids/homelife/biz and find plenty of other things that they would love to do during the day, while away from home. And they seem incredibly "refreshed" after a day alone...
Milwaukee is actually a great city. Lots going on. Depending on her and your interests:Brewers Game Always something at the Pabst TheaterMilwaukee Art MuseumJazz in Cathedral Square Park on Thursday eveningsLots of great home-grown breweries. Try the Lakefront Brewery

Guglielmo just joined with us in a film photography project last month. He has a lot of reasons to love shooting film and here are several main ones he wants to share with us.
1. It's tangible. While shooting I have the constant sensation of making something physical, just as a sculptor who kneads his clay.
2. Working with expired films is always a surprise. Who knows what will come out? The development of this kind of films is even more suspenseful.
3. Many old cameras aren't equipped with light meter (on my Rollei 35 SE it doesn't work because the batteries are no longer in production), you have to trust your eyes and your perception.
4. It improves your discernment. It's not funny to waste photos, especially if you're shooting on a 12 exposures film.
5. I can't really explain this, but I feel much more captivated if I use an analogue camera: I can take the most ordinary sunset photo but what I see through the viewfinder and what I expect to fix on the roll is for me inexplicably intimate.

Understand the expectations consumers have for the services we provide. Accurately capture these expectations and analyze them. Manage our resources in ways to match changing expectations. Deliver services that meet consumers needs and expectations.
Many so-called "customer satisfaction surveys" are used in an effort to determine IT service quality. These surveys are definitely a start in the right direction, indicating that the survey author understands that he or she needs to take into account the consumer of the service when measuring quality. Unfortunately, many of these customer satisfaction surveys are simply not effective and are soon discarded. The good news is that over the last 25 years the science of marketing has advanced dramatically. There are now statistically valid frameworks for measuring quality and ways to generate reliable and repeatable results. SERVQUAL and SERVPERF are excellent examples and well proven.
Practitioners and managers often ask similar questions regarding the measurement of IT services. Many practitioners assume that, by examining the warranty surrounding the IT components that create a service, they can measure IT service quality. This does not work. Measuring warranty of individual components is at best predictive, and has been proven to be woefully inadequate in many instances.
Many common questions arise with regard to measuring services: What is customer delight? How do we exceed customer expectation? How do we under-promise and over-deliver? But these are not the right questions to ask. To measure service quality is to measure the expectation of the service user, and then position the IT organization within that expectation. It is not feasible to attempt to delight all customers or exceed customer expectations. In fact, attempting to do these things, more often than not, results in spectacular failures. This is why BSM is all about understanding what is needed and then meeting that need―no more, no less.

Blaise Compaoré stepped down as president of Burkina Faso last week
RNW Africa becomes Waza: the FAQs
4 November 2014
On 4 November, the website RNW Africa has become the Waza web platform. Twelve questions that will help you understand the change.
1. Why is RNW Africa/RNW Afrique becoming Waza?
The RNW Africa/Afrique websites have been producing high-quality content for years. However, the way this content was delivered needed improving, namely the accessibility and clarity of the website. Moreover, the new Waza website is targeted at a young demographic (15-30 years) and will require changes in design and functionability to cater for this new audience's needs. Finally, the Waza website aims to improve audience interaction and engagement.
2. Why is Waza better?
The website has an attractive, yet simple design for three types of devices: desktops (with higher resolution), tablets, and smartphones. The website will offer quick navigation in an attractive design which allows easy access to multiple topics and channels. The website will become the element that dynamically connects the different productions, maximizing on innovative and engaging content.
3. What does the name Waza mean/come from?
Waza means THINK in Swahili.
4. What is Waza?
Waza is a web platform that offers a space where young people from the African continent can express themselves easily and freely. Waza, together with its partners, provides content designed to encourage public debate in African society. Waza will stimulate conversations to create a varied, independent and innovative vision of day-to-day life on the African continent.
5. Which topics are written about and discussed on Waza?
Waza will focus on human rights, specifically the right to freedom of speech; the right to a free press; the right to work; the right to a sustainable environment; the right to a non-corrupt society; the right to be protected from discrimination based on gender and sexual orientation and the right to democracy. Waza is a response to a new generation's demand to challenge political, cultural and sexual taboos.
6. What is the relationship between RNW and Waza?
The Waza platform is part of the RNW family. The content of the website consists of articles, audio, videos, blogs, pictures, infographics and ThingLinks, which are produced by RNW Africa and RNW Afrique's editorial boards, together with their partners, bloggers and freelancers in Africa.
7. Will I still find my favourite programmes, like My Song, on Waza?
Waza's content will be based mainly on the existing content of RNW Africa and RNW Afrique. Many of the RNW programmes and formats you are familiar with will continue on Waza, such as My Song, What's Up Africa and Cartoon of the Week.
8. How will the Waza rebranding influence the website's content?
In the beginning, the content of the website will be very similar to the content of RNW Africa/RNW Afrique. In time, the content will likely move towards more visual-based content and fewer articles. Any change in content will be guided by users' feedback and input.
9. Is the content on Waza Africa and Waza Afrique the same, but just translated to another language?
No, it is not. We focus on different countries and sometimes translate content that might be of interest to people in other parts of Africa.
10. Will Waza Africa/Afrique replace RNW Africa/Afrique on social media?
Yes, which means the Facebook pages will be renamed Waza Africa and Waza Afrique. The Twitter handles will also change. The new handles will be announced shortly.
11. How do I keep informed?
Waza's web address will be wazaonline.com, so the easiest way is to add a bookmark in your browser. If you are already a follower of RNW Africa and RNW Afrique on Facebook, you do not need to make any changes. The only differences you will notice are changes to our colour scheme and a new logo. If you are already a follower of RNW Africa and RNW Afrique on Twitter, you do not need to make any changes. The only differences you will notice are changes to our colour scheme and a new logo.
12. I have a problem, question or suggestion, who do I contact and how?
On Facebook, please make a comment or send us a direct message.
On Twitter – tweet us!
There is also a contact form available on the wazaonline.com website, please send us your questions and suggestions using this form and we will get back to you within a few days.

Logitech announced four new Speaker Systems with 360-Degree Sound – including the Logitech Speaker System Z320, Logitech Speaker System Z323, Logitech Speaker System Z520 and the Logitech Speaker System Z523.
Unlike standard PC speakers that use forward-firing drivers, the new Logitech Z320, Z323, Z520 and Z523 multimedia speaker systems feature 360-Degree Sound, or omnidirectional acoustics, which creates a substantially wider sweet spot – an especially helpful feature if you often move your computer around your home or office. With speaker drivers that face forward and backwards in each satellite, these four new speakers are designed to transmit sound more consistently over a wider range of space so you never miss a beat no matter where you are in the room.
The Logitech Speaker System Z320 and Logitech Speaker System Z323 are expected to be available in the U.S. and Europe for a suggested retail price of $69.99 in August and September respectively.
The Logitech Speaker System Z523 is expected to be available in the U.S. and Europe beginning in July for a suggested retail price of $99.99. The Logitech Speaker System Z520 is expected to be available in the U.S. and Europe beginning in July for a suggested retail price of $129.99.

I read a couple of background-oriented stories in the Times, although as someone who has lived in Russia and visited Georgia, you know more than me about whether or not these are good articles.
(Here's one)
I also heard an interesting segment on the PBS News Hour last night with Richard Holbrook (sp?) and a Russian emigre who is US think tank policy guy now. They got into it something serious. They were interviewed just after Gwen Ifil interviewed the Russian ambassador to the UN, and while both commentators disagreed with the Russian ambassador, they also differed from each other. Holbrooke insisted on the badness of Russia and the relative blamelessness of Georgia; the Russian-think-tank-guy countered - Russia has no intentions of formally occupying Georgia (a point Holbrooke disputed) - AND, Saakashvili is certainly not the innocent in all of this either.
Here's the interview:
PS - Laura, what do you think of those Chinese gymnasts?

I just read the Crooked Timbers post; it makes me wonder about the historical timeline of these national-ethnic disputes.
I wonder if the Cold War delayed the inevitable . . . the intranational conflicts among ethnic groups of nations forged during the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century. This isn't all that profound, but it seems to me that we might think of these conflicts as something akin to decolonization movements in the 1960s and 1970s. They feed on each other and create odd bedfellows - Spain cannot support an independent Kosovo because of what it might mean for Catalonia.
In the United States (and the Western Hemisphere), the idea of nations developed at the same time as our nations were formed. It's written into the DNA of the many American constitutions in the late 1700s and early 1800s. In Europe, Asia, and Africa, it seems more artificial. An imposition of a particular Enlightenment ideology on top of forms of governance and various social groupings that had a much longer history than that of the presence of Europeans in the Americas.
Interestingly, all of this occurring at a moment when nationalism is emphasized to absurd proportions at the Olympics. Individuals are defined by their national identity - without a nation (and a flag and anthem) - you are nothing. Or you are forced to give up your national identity and flag, like "Chinese-Tapei," aka Taiwan.

Gale, I do think it's important not to fall into the Russia=bad, Georgia=good trap. Unfortunately, I don't know a lot about Saakashvili's policy with respect to South Ossetia and Abkhazia, though I imagine it is not all peaches and good will. Georgia never really was a nation, and it's been struggling to keep its borders intact ever since it seceded from the Soviet Union. That said, I think it's pretty clear that Russia's actions go very far beyond an attempt to keep the peace in South Ossetia and are intended to be read as acts of aggression against Georgia. I read some of the Russian press this morning, and it was really upsetting.
Also, you're right on about colonialism - this is the point I was always trying to make to all the Anglo- and Franco-focused people in my post-colonial theory class. The Caucasus and Central Asia were originally annexed by the Russian Empire. "National" lines were redrawn and ethnicities created by the Soviets in the 1920s, in part with the aim of splitting up cohesive territories to prevent rebellion. When the USSR came apart, these republics split off along the lines drawn by the Soviet colonizers - just as they did in Africa and the Middle East during decolonization. None of these states were ever nations and some, like Georgia, are home to dozens of ethnic and/or linguistic groups (not so different from tribal groups in Africa).
As for the Olympics, now that is a topic for a whole series of posts. It kind of blows my mind. But I do love the Chinese gymnasts. I like them better than the Americans, except for Nastia, who's my favorite.

I also love Nastia best. She's the most elegant of the Americans. The other ladies tend to be very choppy in their performances, while she seems to have a more ballerina approach. Like Sasha on the American men's team - there's just something about those American kids of USSR gymnasts. I think it's because they have the seriousness of their parents and other athletes from the eastern bloc Olympics factories, but they are also American kids and have a sense of fun and play.
I bet a lot of money that the Americans kept thinking - we may not win, but at least we get to have (relatively) normal lives. The Chinese girls seemed to have the weight of the world on their shoulders.

I would also add this to the articles on Georgia, Russia, and the United States' miscalculation.
What I find most disturbing is the image of Bush and Putin sitting down for a tete-a-tete. I suppose I've always known that this is how meetings between leaders happen, but nonetheless it seems like Putin wouldn't have to do very much to play his opponent. Neither did Saakashvili, apparently.
From the article it seems that our current commander-in-chief is actually a void between two disagreeing parties - Cheney et al. and the State Department.

It's disturbing that our "leaders" made such a gross miscalculation. I think it's telling that Condi - the actual Russian expert - got it right, and that she lost out in the Administration's debates. Anyone who has been watching Russia over the past decade and has any experience with the way the country's psyche and ambitions have evolved since, say, 1998, could have seen this coming.
That Cheney and his henchmen didn't see it coming seems to me a product of both their arrogance (in refusing treat Russia as anything other than either a Cold-War-style enemy or a weak post-Soviet failure) and their democratizing mission. Georgia's role in all of this as the model post-Soviet democracy is really interesting and seems to have been the thing that kept the Administration pushing forward where they might otherwise have pulled back. I've read articles in which people who knew they were taking risks said, yeah, but it was Georgia, there was that whole democracy thing. So, Georgia is given arms and its military trained in the name of democracy; we push forward with NATO membership in the name of democracy. And now whatever democracy exists in Georgia is under threat thanks to everything we did in the name of democracy.
And it's not that I entirely disagree. As far as non-Western post-Soviet nations go, Georgia, though far from perfect, is the model democracy. But there are times when "democracy" seems to be a proxy for "supports America and sends troops to Iraq in exchange for American military support." You can't blame Georgia for this - small, poor countries don't have a large range of foreign policy choices open to them - but the U.S. needs to think harder the content and consequences of its democracy building mission. Which is why we need Obama in the White House...
- August 19, 2008 at 8:02 AM
- Laura said...
Also, Russia blockades Poti and Bush is on vacation?!? Although, maybe I'd rather have him issuing contentless statements from Crawford than looking into Putin's eyes and bungling relations between two nations whose fates I care about.
- August 19, 2008 at 8:07 AM
- gale said...
I wonder how much of the Georgian military action in South Ossetia stemmed from misunderstandings of what the U.S. officials (esp. Bush) meant. You can completely imagine some luncheon where Bush starts going on about democracy, etc., and this gets interpreted in entirely the wrong way by Georgia . . . which is why we need a president who can hold his own in international dialogues.
The US and the administration comes across as total amateurs, while underlings in State and in the intelligence organizations are trying to stop a freight train collision.
In the same vein, I completely agree with the point about "democratization" equalling troops in Iraq.

Another follow up - I heard on Morning Edition today a report by their Russian correspondent, and he said that the Russian army was putting on a show of departure for the foreign correspondents. They fired up some armored vehicles, loaded the reporters on board, and then headed out . . . while the rest of their forces remained. Sneaky. Except clearly the journalists saw through it.
- August 19, 2008 at 11:27 AM

I add another thing (because the story gets thicker) - the Times ran a piece by Gorbachev this morning, front and center on the Op/Ed page. It is hard-core defense of Russia . . . and next to it is Thomas Friedman condemning Georgia, Russia, and the US - Clinton and Bush.
I noticed they are taking comments on the Gorbachev article . . . the response should be interesting.

Laura and Gale,
Now that I've caught up with your discussion - I was wondering if any of you thinks that, ultimately, the thing between Georgia and Russia is about nationalism or about "who democratizes first," or who prostrates to the West/U.S. I'm interested because (as you can predict) the Green party in Taiwan is now freaking out because they think that China would do the same to Taiwan.
- August 24, 2008 at 2:41 PM
- Laura said...
Joyce, not knowing much (or anything, really) about Taiwan, I'm not entirely sure what you're asking. The Russia-Georgia conflict is definitely somewhat about nationalism, but not so much, I don't think, about "who democratizes first," except insofar as Georgia's "democratization" signals its desire to turn its back on Russia and team up with the U.S. But maybe you could elaborate?

(Israel Hayom/Exclusive to JNS.org) An Israeli ambassador's infant born to a surrogate mother in Nepal died on Thursday in a hospital in Kathmandu.
According to the Israeli Foreign Ministry, the infant had been kept in a sealed tent on the grounds of a hospital massively damaged by the recent massive earthquakes that hit the area. The tent, which housed a total of nine babies, was meant to stave off infections.
The baby's death, coming less than a day after he was born, came nine days after the most recent earthquake in Nepal, which measured 7.3 on the Richter scale. The newborn's twin, also kept in the tent, has survived. The parents, Israeli Ambassador to Serbia Yossi Levy and his same-sex partner, have an older child who was also born via surrogate.
The cause of death is still under investigation. One possibility is that he died of dehydration, and another is that he suffered from a congenital heart defect. But even if the death was caused by an existing condition, detection and treatment might have been better in a more suitable hospital setting.
Magen David Adom emergency services agency CEO Eli Bin, who is currently in Nepal, said, "I spoke with Yossi's partner. They are having a very hard time. It is very sad. When you go through a process like this—so long—it can break you. But this is the reality now, and they are thinking ahead."

The objective of this study was to record the clinical course of osteoporosis over time in Japanese women. We hypothesized that successful control of acute pain associated with osteoporosis will allow better treatment for health-related problems. To confirm this working hypothesis, we developed the Japan Questionnaire for Osteoporotic Pain (JQ22) to measure health status associated with osteoporosis. We examined the validity and reliability of the JQ22 compared with the current gold standard scale for back pain, the Roland Morris questionnaire (RDQ). A total of 125 women who were more than 65 years old, had an acute back pain episode, and had a fragile vertebral fracture confirmed by X-ray and clinical signs, participated in this study. The psychometric analyses for validity and reliability were tested for the JQ22 and the RDQ. The time course up to 6 weeks was observed by investigating both changes in pain characteristics and its influence on related activities and social participation. Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.979 and 0.919 for the JQ22 and RDQ, respectively. The Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) indicated that the JQ22 items were separated into four domains, which were sequentially arranged at the baseline and subsequently changed. This structure reflected osteoporotic back characteristics covering a range from pain to social activities. The JQ22 was shown to be a valid and reliable scale for patient-based measurement of osteoporotic back pain. It also revealed both changes in pain characteristics and the influence of pain on related activities and participation. © 2013 The Japanese Society for Bone and Mineral Research and Springer Japan.

Ant-Man review: Little hero big on the action
Although its ambitions are grander than the incredible shrinking hero of the title, the latest franchise in the cluttered Marvel Comic universe is refreshingly modest compared to the computer-generated bombast of The Avengers.
The script, initially penned by Edgar Wright and Joe Cornish, and then revised by Adam McKay and Paul Rudd when Peyton Reed replaced Wright in the director's chair, leans heavily on deadpan humour.
Reed's boisterous action adventure is anchored by a winning lead performance from Rudd, who made his mark as Phoebe's boyfriend in the sitcom Friends.
When Rudd's unlikely hero is invited to become Ant-Man and save the world, his considered response is: "I think our first move should be calling The Avengers." Sensible. Cat burglar Scott Lang (Rudd) is released from San Quentin Penitentiary and resolves to go straight for the sake of his daughter Cassie (Abby Ryder Fortson).
He shares an apartment with former cellmate Luis (Michael Pena) but struggles to find gainful employment.
Desperate to pay child support to his despairing ex-wife, Scott agrees to one lucrative heist set up by Luis and two pals. Unfortunately, the robbery lands Scott in a police cell, under the glare of Maggie's new beau, Detective Paxton).
Inventor Hank Pym (Michael Douglas) offers Scott a way out if he agrees to don a superhero outfit, which shrinks the wearer at the touch of a button.
Ant-Man mines a rich vein of humour to underscore the high-speed acrobatics.
The 3D format is only noticeable when Scott activates the suit and seemingly benign household features, like a running tap, become life-or-death obstacles a la Honey I Shrunk The Kids.

Rimbaud Complete (Paperback)
Modern Library, 9780375757709, 656pp.
Publication Date: January 14, 2003
Mason draws on a century of Rimbaud scholarship to choreograph a superbly clear-eyed presentation of the poet's works. He arranges Rimbaud's writing chronologically, based on the latest manuscript evidence, so readers can experience the famously teenaged poet's rapid evolution, from the lyricism of "Sensation" to the groundbreaking early modernism of A Season in Hell.
In fifty pages of previously untranslated material, including award-winning early verses, all the fragmentary poems, a fascinating early draft of A Season in Hell, a school notebook, and multiple manuscript versions of the important poem "O saisons, o chateaux," Rimbaud Complete displays facets of the poet unknown to American readers. And in his Introduction, Mason revisits the Rimbaud myth, addresses the state of disarray in which the poet left his work, and illuminates the intricacies of the translator's art.
Mason has harnessed the precision and power of the poet's rapidly changing voice: from the delicate music of a poem such as "Crows" to the mature dissonance of the Illuminations, Rimbaud Complete unveils this essential poet for a new generation of readers.
About the Author
Praise For Rimbaud Complete…
"The definitive translation for our time." —Edward Hirsch
"Wyatt Mason has located and tapped into Rimbaud's voice as it swings from gnarled to straight-ahead to mystic to raucous." —Roger Shattuck
"An important introduction of Rimbaud to another generation of readers." —Booklist
"The best opportunity thus far to experience Rimbaud as fully as possible in English. Here is Rimbaud uncensored: the savage maker, the scathing satirist, the rigorous Alchemist of the Word, the master of metrics and innovator of the prose poem, the figure who made himself absolutely modern, the poetic visionary whose work systematically disorders the senses and resonates with a strange beauty, an exultant splendor." —Edward Hirsch
"A welcome addition to the shelf of Rimbaud in English. Mason's tireless zeal and endless inventiveness compel unfailing admiration." —Arthur Goldhammer

Answer – Entrepreneurship poles for students in university centres – E-007714/2016
The Commission supports entrepreneurship education in higher education through policy and finance, notably Erasmus+, Horizon 2020, the European Social Fund (ESF invests EUR 2.2 billion in self-employment and business creation and EUR 6.8 billion in the labour market relevance of education and training systems) and the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF invests EUR 9 billion in Small and Medium-sized Enterprises business development, self-employment, business creation, web and social entrepreneurship).
Many EU universities have entrepreneurship centres for students. The ESF and ERDF can be used to develop such centres. Erasmus+, Horizon 2020 and ERDF (Interreg) can fund projects for cooperation between them.
Examples for ERDF support are EXIST(1)– a German initiative that helped universities increase entrepreneurial culture and support creation of innovative start-ups — and the Biopark Charleroi Brussels South(2).
The Commission supports universities to become more entrepreneurial by involving external stakeholders in their governance and promoting knowledge exchange with partner firms. 1 in 10 Erasmus trainees create their own business(3) and the European Institute for Innovation and Technology (EIT) also fosters entrepreneurship of students. Supporting students and graduates to start their own business is only one aspect of an entrepreneurial university. The Commission, in partnership with the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), launched HEInnovate(4), a tool to support universities in assessing and developing their entrepreneurial potential. The Commission has also been supporting intensive seminars to train university professors in the most advanced methods to teach entrepreneurship(5).
