BASEBALL; After Step Forward, Mets Tumble Backward
By TYLER KEPNER
Published: April 30, 2001
ST. LOUIS, April 29— Mike Piazza never believed that Saturday's thrilling 11-inning victory would, by itself, lead the Mets out of their misery. Nearly a decade in the majors has taught Piazza that momentum builds over three or four games, not one. But the only momentum the Mets generated on their awful road trip was of the negative kind.
A grim stretch of nine games in three cities ended for the Mets today when they lost to the St. Louis Cardinals, 12-1, and Piazza lost his cool. Piazza was ejected for the first time in 1,140 major league games when he argued a call at home plate during the Cardinals' four-run second inning. The Cardinals' barrage continued with a seven-run third.
''We're obviously frustrated,'' Piazza said. ''I don't know anybody who enjoys that. It seems to me I'm just miserable when we're not playing well.''
The last-place Mets went 3-6 on the trip, losing five games by four or more runs, and their overall record is 9-15. Their offense showed some signs of life -- notably from Edgardo Alfonzo, Jay Payton and some bench players -- but the Mets have still been paralyzed by an inability to make the most of their opportunities. In their past five losses, the Mets are hitting .097 (3 for 31) with runners in scoring position.
Even their fielding is deserting them. The Mets have made 10 errors in their past five games, including three today by Benny Agbayani, who set a single-game club record for errors by an outfielder. All three errors came on fairly routine hits that bounced past or off Agbayani.
''It was a real, real lousy day for Agbayani,'' Mets Manager Bobby Valentine said. ''I think he had a little lack of concentration. If it ever happens again, I'll be very disappointed. I was disappointed today.''
Agbayani said, ''When you make mental mistakes like that, it's just not right.''
The Mets lost two of three games at Busch Stadium this weekend in a series punctuated by controversy with the umpires. Piazza, especially, has been irritated.
He was howling on Friday after Tsuyoshi Shinjo was hit by a pitch. On Saturday, he was among several Mets screaming at the umpires from the dugout after the Cardinals' Mike James stayed in the game after hitting Todd Zeile with a pitch. Zeile was the fourth Met to be hit in two games.
Valentine escalated his own argument Saturday because he feared Piazza would be ejected. But Valentine could not protect Piazza today.
The Cardinals began the second inning with five consecutive singles off Glendon Rusch. After Jim Edmonds singled to left with one out, Piazza took Agbayani's throw and swiped a tag on Cardinals pitcher Darryl Kile, who was sliding into home.
When the plate umpire, Wally Bell, called Kile safe, Piazza flipped up from the dirt and wagged his glove at Bell, pointing to the ground and jawing in Bell's face.
''He was upset with the umpiring immensely yesterday,'' Valentine said of Piazza. ''It might have been a little carry-over from yesterday's situation. He might've even said something like that when he was yelling at them.''
Valentine sprung from the dugout and took up the argument. Piazza stalked away, his back turned to Bell, and slammed his mask to the ground. Bell ejected him, and Piazza was livid. He did not feel he was threatening Bell physically, but the coach John Stearns rushed from the dugout to restrain him. Piazza, who plays with emotion but rarely loses control, was fuming.
''I disagreed with the call, and I argued it,'' Piazza said. ''It's an emotional game, and obviously, we've been frustrated the last week. Maybe it does build a little bit, I don't know. I just thought he was out. I thought it could've been a big play and maybe kept us in the game.''
Kile's run put the Cardinals ahead, 4-0, but the run made little difference considering the way the Mets pitched. Instead of tailing away from right-handed hitters, Rusch's fastball was moving into them. He continually missed with it over the plate, and the Cardinals took advantage and knocked Rusch out in the third.
''The most frustrating thing is, you take your team out of the game early,'' Rusch said. ''Like today, I didn't give us any chance to win the ballgame. Not only that, after we burned half our bullpen yesterday, we burned it even more today.''
Rusch (1-1) allowed 11 singles, and Donne Wall came in and it seemed as if he would allow 11 doubles. This is what happened before Wall recorded an out: double, double, single, walk, double, walk. He allowed six hits (including four doubles) in an inning and two-thirds innings, and the Cardinals increased their lead from 5-0 to 12-0 while he was in the game.
Wall has pitched in 10 games, all losses, but the most glaring problem for the Mets' staff is the starting rotation. Taking out Rick Reed's two starts, Mets starters allowed 37 earned runs and 59 hits in 28 innings on this trip. That comes to an 11.89 earned run average and an average of more than two hits per inning.
The Mets' next two starters for their home series with Houston are the struggling Steve Trachsel and, probably, the 22-year-old Dicky Gonzalez from Class AAA Norfolk. There is no guarantee things will improve. Then again, things cannot get much worse.
''We haven't come together and produced as a team,'' Alfonzo said. ''We're just looking forward to a getting a good month, this month coming up. Forget about what happened in April.''
General Manager STEVE PHILLIPS called SANDY ALDERSON, executive vice president of Major League Baseball, after Saturday's game to dispute the ejection of TURK WENDELL. Alderson told Phillips he would review the situation with the umpires involved.

A View Of The World Prior To War,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: 1913: The World before the Great War (Kindle Edition)
An interesting look at the world prior to the Great War. Some might think it a long boring book but he was covering the world here and perhaps each continent deserves a book to itself. However there was interest on every page, I especially like the flavour it gave of the still frontier towns of America and Canada and this was only 100 years ago, my grandfather was 40 years old at this time and I knew him well. So it shows how close we were to an almost lawless society. We might not have progressed as much as we think.

What does ITV mean?
- ITV is a commercial public service TV network in the United Kingdom. Launched in 1955 as Independent Television under the auspices of the Independent Television Authority to provide competition to the BBC, it is also the oldest commercial network in the UK. Since the passing of the Broadcasting Act 1990, its legal name has been Channel 3, the number 3 having no real meaning other than to distinguish it from the other analogue channels at the time, namely BBC 1, BBC 2 and Channel 4. In part, the number 3 was assigned as televisions would usually be tuned so that the regional ITV station would be on the third button, the other stations being allocated to the number within their name. ITV is a network of television channels that operate regional television services as well as sharing programmes between each other to be displayed on the entire network. In recent years, several of these companies have merged so currently the fifteen franchises are in the hands of three companies. ITV is to be distinguished from ITV plc, the company that resulted from the merger of Granada plc and Carlton Communications in 2004 and which holds the Channel 3 broadcasting licences in England, Wales, southern Scotland, the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands. Similarly ITV is the brand used by ITV plc for the Channel 3 service in these areas. Of the companies external to ITV plc, STV and UTV use their own brands in their own respective areas.

More Day 5---too the sea of cortez
I told Scott to forget that gps gizmo and follow my tailight.
At the turnoff to Alfonsino's I paid for a palapa for the night ---130 Peso's.
And we filled up with gas at the Pemex on the dirt road and a really nice fellow fixed us a great big steak sandwich.
We loaded the sandwich's up with 2 cold beers (my limit is one) and headed to the beach to eat it and set up camp.
There was no wind------perfect temps as we ate and watched the sun go down behind us-----knowing it would ride
out in the ocean in the morning.
We were the only ones here---thanks to the many gringo's that won't come down here.
There were many birds out in the ocean making loud bird noises---that were actually very pleasing to the ear along with the soft sound of
the surf coming in.
I laid out my "Dingleweeds M-3000 Combo--Tarp---Bike Cover--Shelter--and Misc. Use".
We never go anywhere without these.
A hot steak sandwich and cold beer.
I usually drink about 5 beers a year-----I hit my quota on this trip and will have to wait till next year to have another.

Standard Sateen White Goose Down Pillow with Piping 13 15
Best Pillow I've Ever Used I purchased these pillows several months ago, and absolutely love them. I've experienced neck pain and headaches all my life, and have used just about every therapeutic pillow available, to no avail. Because I have severe allergies, I was afraid to try down pillows, even though I suspected that they would be comfortable due to their malleability. Because these were described as being free from allergens, and because Frontgate quality has never disappointed me, I decided to take a chance. And I could not be happier! I have not had a headache nor a sleepless night since using them! I highly recommend these pillow for comfort, value, and quality. April 10, 2015
as represented! We ordered these pillows from the website. Delivery was fast and easy. we really like the pillows and the "medium" that we ordered is exactly what we got. We highly reccommend this item January 23, 2015
Frontgate Pillows Excel Best down pillow around bar none. January 20, 2015
Excellent Down Pillows Initially ordered Medium and they were too soft. Returned them for Firm and they were just right. Must say Frontgate handled the exchange very efficiently. These pillows are an excellent quality and as good as other more expensive pillows. Will order two more for our northern home. December 12, 2014
Finally I found a pillow I like. I have been looking for substantial goose down pillows and am pleased with these. They are firm but not hard and very comfy in bed. These were hard to find; the ones from other stores were not good enough. I cannot judge durability as I have only had them a few weeks. December 4, 2014
Goose down pillow Excellent to lay my head on-also the pillow cover makes it so very nice when putting on the pillow cases. Seems to keep extra air in the pillow. October 11, 2014
We love our new pillows! We bought the 'Firm' standard size Sateen White Goose Down Pillows. Although a number of prior reviewers felt that these pillows were softer and provided less support than claimed by the category (e.g., firm were medium, medium soft) my wife and both feel they are very supportive. Also excellent quality construction. August 12, 2014
Happy Customer Ordered these pillows and couldn't be happier. I sleep so comfortably now. Would highly recommend this product to anyone. March 14, 2014

I have tried multiple times to get an answer from Frontgate on this issue without luck, so I am hoping posting the public section actually gets a response. Bottom Line--when, if ever, will the firm pillows be back in stock? They have been gone since long before Christmas and there doesn't seem to be any indication that you are planning to restock, despite listing them in the "description".

The 4th Year Geriatrics/Rehabilitation Clerkship MDC 7140
MDC7140, is a four-week required geriatrics rotation for all 4th year medical students at multiple north Florida locations in Gainesville and Jacksonville. The clerkship consist of 3 rotations; 1 week of geriatric medicine (in outpatient clinic or hospital consults), 1 week of palliative care, and 2 weeks of rehabilitation. The student will serve as the acting intern for frail elders in an outpatient clinic, a hospital consultative service, a palliative care facility, a subacute rehabilitation facility, or long-term care facility. Students will manage medical problems and also will learn how to function as part of an interdisciplinary team.
The clerkship focus is to familiarize the students with the different settings in which geriatrics care is provided. The goal of the geriatric medicine week is to understand how to talk to older patients and to be able to do a history and physical exam in a geriatrics setting. The palliative care rotation will expose students to end of life and hospice issues. Within the rehabilitation rotation, the goals are twofold: understand Falls and Dysmobility during the first week, and Dementia and Psychosocial Issues in the Elderly during the second week.
Monday through Friday of each week will be spent at the assigned clinical rotation site, and each Friday there will be didactic and experiential learning sessions. All students will meet in the assigned rooms to participate in required small group activities.
The Objectives of the Clerkship are:
- Professionalism
- Patient Care
- Diagnostic – History
- Diagnostic – Physical Exam
- Information Management – Recording and presenting data gathered from history and physical exam
- Medical Knowledge: Encompasses fund of knowledge AND ability to interpret and synthesize data into an assessment and plan
- Practice-Based Learning – Encompasses self-assessment, reading, critical appraisal, and use of information technology to enhance clinical skills/patient care, recognizing errors and learning from mistakes
- Interpersonal and Communication Skills
- Systems-Based Practice – Encompasses collaboration with entire interdisciplinary health care team, resource utilization, cost-conscious/evidence-based care, and using the "system" to optimize individual patient care.
The aim of this clerkship is to provide students with a four-week in-depth experience working as a geriatrician and on an interdisciplinary team to improve the function of frail older patients and manage their acute and chronic medical problems. Older people over age 65 account for 50% of hospital usage and a large share of other medical services. An older patient sees on average 14 physicians in various medical or surgical specialties every year. In order to care for the unique needs of this rapidly growing segment of the population, graduating medical students must have the knowledge and understanding of the focus of geriatric medicine and rehabilitation, which is to provide effective and compassionate care in in multiple settings and restoring health and function of older patients through rehabilitation therapies. Goals of care must be individualized, with an appreciation that function is usually the outcome of primary importance and that palliation rather than cure is often paramount.
A geriatrician is a member of an interdisciplinary health care team which develops personalized care and rehabilitation plans for each patient with the aim of maintaining or restoring their physical, cognitive, and social function. Whenever students are involved in the care of frail older patients during this clerkship, we urge you to answer these questions in order to understand their medical care, goals of life, and rehabilitation needs:
- What are the physical, cognitive, and social functions your patient has lost as a result of debility?
- What functions does your patient need to regain in order for him/her to be able to go home?
- What are the conditions preventing the patient from improving their functions?
- What types of services, support, and equipment, will your patient and caregiver need in order to compensate for his/her functional loss?
This clerkship is designed to promote self-directed learning. Students are to be involved in every aspect of their patients' care: interviewing patients, documenting visits, writing orders, observing rehabilitation therapy sessions, participating in the interdisciplinary health care team conferences and holding patient/family meetings. Students are expected to actively participate in weekly didactic sessions, case conferences and complete on-line, self-assessment questions on topics in geriatrics before each conference. These topics are carefully selected to complement other clerkships and minimize overlap between clerkships. The clerkship also is designed to create a humane environment that fosters respect, personal integrity, service orientation and a sense of personal well-being.
Caring for older patients takes time. The presence of concurrent chronic conditions, the use of multiple medications and atypical presentations of illness in this population make clinical decision-making more complex and time-consuming. Impairments in a patient's mobility, vision, hearing, and cognition, combined with the frequent need to involve family members and other health care surrogates in complex discussion of benefits and risks of clinical care require more physician time and attention. In Geriatric Medicine, we favor "high-touch" over "high-tech." In this clerkship, the students are expected to treat their patients with respect, compassion and humility as if they were treating their own family members.

Drafting in 30 min...have the 5 pick. Trying to decide btw Sizemore, Braun and Cabrera. Thoughts?
Cabrera- the dual eligibility allows more flexibility later in the draft.
Depends on your league setup. IF you start more than 3 outfielders than you may want to take one of them instead. If you only start 3 outfielders you can't really go wrong with any of them but Dom has a valid point. Since he can play both 1st and 3rd Cabrera allows you to wait an extra round or two on another corner infielder to see if one will drop.

cannot believe that Pujols fell to me.
In regards to Pujols: How is it that people let a guy that slugs .600 with an OBP of .450 fall? The guy is the perfect hitter, and people take Jose Reyes ahead of him.
If you are in a league where Jose Reyes is more valuable than Albert Pujols, you should drop out now and get a real scoring system.
I'm convinced that 5x5 leagues are the ruin of mankind.
I had one of my points league teams ask me the other day, "Can we give more points for stolen base specialists like Michael Bourne and Willy Taveras?" Ugh.
It was created when EBH were in decline and SB up. We do Rate stats in my league... and I drafted Albert, second after Hanley.I'm convinced that 5x5 leagues are the ruin of mankind.
Don't be surprised if in 5 years the 5x5 seem a tad more relevant than current times. Ebb and flow, ebb and flow.
Moot point now, but third base is so thin this year that I like Miggy anyway. Grady is one of my favorite players, but I passed on him to take Cabrera at 7. I could name 30 outfielders I wouldn't mind having. There are three or four third baseman, if that, and one doesn't even play there anymore (Cabrera). Unless you believe Baseball Prospectus' projection for Edwin, then maybe there's 5 or 6.IF you start more than 3 outfielders than you may want to take one of them instead. If you only start 3 outfielders you can't really go wrong with any of them
The idiot behind me took Rollins with Sizemore still on the board, and then the guy who had Sizemore grabbed Utley on the way back.
I could have smacked that dude.
I guess that could happen, but with these stadiums, and pitching being at a premium, I can't imagine runs being that scarce. Then again, for about a week, I believed the hype of Howie Kendrick winning a batting title at some point, so what do I know. For a week- and then I saw that walk and K rate and then I realized that guys days are numbered in this league.Don't be surprised if in 5 years the 5x5 seem a tad more relevant than current times. Ebb and flow, ebb and flow.
Anyhoo- you could be right, I hope you aren't. 1980s Cardinals baseball is not something I want to relive.
I see why Hanley goes that high, but in our league Pujols is worth 150 points more than most hitters. It varies from league to league, but geesh, to hit 30 plus home runs and strike out under 60 times a year with 100 walks. Oh lordy, that man can hit a baseball.and I drafted Albert, second after Hanley.

My first five picks: Pujols, Lincecum, Johan, Bay and Ellsbury. Also got Dunn later as I needed power.
I'm kicking myself for not taking Manny over Lincecum. I thought that the top pitchers (Lincecum, Johan and CC) would have been gone before I got my 3rd pick. But when it was time, I couldn't pass up those first 3 picks. Crazy.
Oh man- Lincecum should provide more value at that pick than Manny. While I think Manny does better than his BP projection, he isn't anywhere as far ahead of the others at his position than Tiny Tim is.
Of course, it all depends on your scoring system. Mine thankfully does not score wins, which makes him all the more valuable.
The next SP I took was Lester in the 9th, then Zambrano/Harang in the 14/15th rds. There was good pitching left later while hitting was snagged early.
But I'm not really complaining about my rotation.

Manny Ramirez is not a second round pick. Lincecum is a borderline first rounder.I wouldn't compare Manny to Lincecum.
You got good value.

How did three Danes end up being tortured in Lebanon?
What a crisis has done to the people of Greece
27 Jan 2012 21:38 GMT | Politics, Europe, France
The Dutch minority government plans to ban Muslim face veils such as burqas and other forms of clothing that cover the face from next year.
The ban would make the Netherlands, where 1 million out of 17 million people are Muslim, the second EU country to ban the burqa after France, and would apply to face-covering veils if they were worn in public.
"People should be able to look at each other's faces and recognise each other when they meet," the interior affairs ministry said in a statement on Friday.
The ban will also apply to balaclavas and motorcycle helmets when worn in infappropriate places, such as inside a store, Deputy Prime Minister Maxime Verhagen told reporters, denying that this was a ban on religious clothing.
Geert Wilders' anti-Islam Freedom Party (PVV), which helps give the Liberal-Christian Democrat coalition a majority in parliament, has set considerable political store on getting the so-called burqa ban passed into law.
Few Muslim women in the Netherlands wear the Arabic-style niqabs which leave the eyes uncovered and Afghan-style burqas that cover the face with a cloth grid.
'Symbolic law'
Academics estimate the numbers at between 100 and 400, whereas Muslim headscarves which leave the face exposed are far more common.
The coalition has agreed to submit a new law to parliament next week stipulating that offenders would be fined up to 390 euros ($510), the ministry said.
Verhagen said the ban was intended to ensure that a tradition of open communication cherished in Dutch society was upheld, and to prevent people from concealing their identity in order to do harm.
Wilders, who condemned Dutch Queen Beatrix for covering her hair with a scarf on a recent royal visit to the Middle East, said on Twitter: "Great news: burqa ban will finally come to the Netherlands! Proposal approved by ministers' council. Excellent!"
Maurits Berger, professor of Islam in the contemporary West at Leiden University, said only a few hundred women wear the full face veil in the Netherlands.
"This is highly symbolic, it's part of the deal made with PVV," Berger said. "We are in the middle of a crisis. There are worse things to tackle."
The minority coalition is at odds with the Freedom Party over where to make further budget cuts, and the scale of the cuts needed.
The face-veil law, which still needs to win approval in both houses of parliament, excludes clothing worn for security reasons such as that worn by firemen and hockey players, as well as party clothing such as Santa Claus or Halloween costumes.
The ban does not apply to religious places, such as churches and mosques, nor to passengers on airplanes or en route via a Dutch airport, the interior ministry said.

Pennsylvania's shale gas industry was responsible for about 4 percent of the total air pollution emitted by all industrial facilities in 2011, according to a first-ever inventory taken by state environmental regulators.
Drillers and other companies involved in the extraction, processing and transportation of natural gas from the Marcellus Shale accounted for nearly 9 percent of the nitrogen oxides and nearly 14 percent of the volatile organic compounds emitted from all so-called "point" sources of pollution statewide, according to the Department of Environmental Protection tally.
Under federal law, DEP is required to report statewide air emissions to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency every three years; 2011 was the first year in which DEP required the shale gas industry to report emissions.
The survey does not take emissions from cars and trucks — the single largest source of air pollution — into account. Nevertheless, it provides an initial snapshot of air pollution caused by drilling rigs, fracking operations, compressor stations and other elements of natural gas production in Pennsylvania's vast Marcellus Shale formation.
The industry produced 16,542 tons of nitrogen oxides and 2,720 tons of volatile organic compounds in 2011, according to the report. By comparison, power plants were a far bigger source of air pollution, contributing 142,749 tons of nitrogen oxides and far greater amounts of soot, carbon monoxide and other pollutants.
Nitrogen oxides are produced during combustion — primary culprits are vehicle exhaust and electrical power plants — and can worsen respiratory conditions like bronchitis and asthma. They also combine with VOCs to form unhealthy ground-level ozone, or smog.
The drilling industry pointed to the numbers as evidence it is having a small impact on air pollution. But some environmentalists expressed concern Friday.
Kevin Stewart, a member of the DEP advisory committee, said he's concerned that shale gas will result in an increasing amount of air pollution as more wells are drilled and fracked and more processing plants, pipelines and compressor stations are built.

Holy sh*t, the misinformation here is brutal.
Love to see all the h8ters falling right into it. Check out the Neowin front page for both Sinofsky and Ballmer letters.
Friendly resignation, all else is speculation.

Maybe not so good terms:
Who knows, who cares, see ya Sinofsky, hello whoever that woman is
Posted 14 November 2012 - 04:49
The letters were only released for the press and investors to dampen the speculation, but a guy like as brilliant as Sinofsky doesn't just leave a power position like that unless there's an internal clash or sudden personal issue.

Roundup: Labor and employment
The latest in labor and employment news: This past month Conde Nast, Ogletree, President Obama, Facebook, and UPS have dealt with labor and employment legal disputes
President Obama's immigration initiatives: 5 key changes for employers that you have not read in the press
For many U.S. employers, the most important parts of the President's immigration agenda were barely reported in the mainstream media and only merited a few words in the President's speech to the nation.
Employers may need to dismiss undocumented employees
The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency still is responsible for worksite enforcement and has not been told to "back down," immigration Attorney Angelo Paparelli advises.
Obama executive action on immigration sparks controversy
Obama's executive action largely provides "small, little fixes" on immigration with nothing that is "big or dramatic," says Attorney David Grunblatt
Health insurance exchanges still present problems
After last year's problems with the rollout of exchanges, this year many of the insurance exchanges have new IT systems. Some of them were showing problems as of earlier this month.
NLRB's expansive view: The Northwestern 'football' ruling and why inside counsel should care
The regional director's decision that the football players are employees who can unionize illustrates a prevalent trend in current NLRB jurisprudence — the expansion of pro-union rights
New Attorney General nominee safe, historic choice
That speculation is now over, as President Obama has now settled on his choice, a nominee that is both historic and safe: United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York Loretta Lynch.
What provisions may be included in a new patent reform bill?
New patent reform proposal may include such provisions as the loser in a lawsuit pays for the other side's legal fees, says attorney Jeffrey Morgan.
The ever-expanding reach of the NLRB and why non-union employers should care
Despite the failure to pass the Employee Free Choice Act or the U.S. Supreme Court's unanimous rebuke of President Obama's recess appointments in National Labor Relations Board v. Noel Canning, the Board appears relatively unfazed.
Five states pass measures supporting a minimum wage increase
While none of the states will top President Obama's proposed $10.10 per hour minimum wage, all five states are prepared to be well above the federal $7.75 per hour minimum.
