Just a quick note to all at
Just a quick note to all at TCR. I love this org reports and game matchups. Ruz really knew what he was doing, b/c I have to tell you, derek & alex are putting out some really lame stuff over at baseball toaster and hardly ever post regular entries. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK & GO CUBS!
Oh and can someone please tell me why Enrique is on 1st instead of Grieve? Please? Why? God, why?
Felix Pie hasn't played in a
Felix Pie hasn't played in a game since playing one game in a doubleheader last Thursday.
Anyone know the reason for this? Injury, promotion, etc or perhaps he just needed a break after the team clinched the 1st half title?
I haven't heard of an
I haven't heard of an injury, my guess, and it truly is a guess, is that they gave him a few days off after they clinched the first half title.
Although it wouldn't surpise me the least bit if Pie gets the call to AAA soon. I mean, I understand that Trenidad Hubbard is having a great year in AAA and i would really hate to lose someone with all that talent, but you know, let the kid play.
Don't get me wrong, I think being patient with Pie is the right move and he should stew in AA for the rest of the year, but it's not like I'm fully confident the Cubs know how to develop position players. If anyone gets called up a level it should be Matt Murton in my opinion (followed by Eric Patterson to Advanced A).
I hadn't noticed this but
I hadn't noticed this but apparently 1B stud Brandon Sing has been trying his hand in the outfield over the last year on occassion. He says he prefers right, but still considers 1B his primary position. I wonder if the Cubs may actually have plans for him with the big club. The power and patience he's shown over the last 2 years has been outstanding, although he's been a bit old for both leagues. He's 24, 6-5, 215 lbs and has been raking the ball the last 2 years. Fell just short of the Florida State League record for homers last year and has belted another 12 so far this season in what is generally known as a pitcher's league.
His peripherals aren't too bad either..
2003 84 BB/101 K/408 AB's
2004 44 BB/ 63 K/ 208 AB's
Strikes out at a horrid pace but I can live with it, if it means he's going to keep up those walk rates. Local kid too, went to Joliet Township
Felix Pie injured his ankle
Felix Pie injured his ankle trying to stretch to run out a triple the other day. Apparently the injury isn't serious, but with the Diamond Jaxx playing meaningless games the last few days (because they'd already wrapped up the first half division title, wooo!), they gave him some time off. Or at least that's the story.
Hearing through the
Hearing through the grapevine (not Vineline) that Marshall and Marmol have been promoted from High A to AA and that Pignatiello is headed for AAA from AA.
That would give the Diamondjaxx one heck of a starting rotation for the second half (Pinto, Nolasco, Marshall, Marmol, Ryu and Connolly) barring further promotions to Iowa.
Thanks for the info John
Thanks for the info John Hill and Rob G. Hope Pie's ankle is okay.
I agree with Rob re: promoting Murton to AAA over Pie ... would be nice to see a high OBP guy with speed at the top of the Cubs lineup. I can't imagine Murton's approach to facing MLB pitching right now could be much worse than Kpat's at this point.
Not so sure Sing isn't the Cub's #1 1B prospect (again?) now. Dopirak's mediocre hitting at Daytona is not that surprising for his first year there at such a young age ... its the 11 errors at first base which are troubling.
SaxFax - If your sources are
SaxFax - If your sources are true, I hope Pigs fares better than Nolasco and Pinto's run with Iowa.
Sax's sources are true.
Sax's sources are true. Relievers Thomas Atlee and Talley Haines were also promoted (Atlee from High-A to Double-A, Haines from Double-A to Triple-A), and relievers Federico Baez and Yorkin Ferreras were demoted from Double-A to High-A. That's on top of the moves involving Marmol, Marshall and Pignatiello.
The Marshall move is unexpected, he's been thoroughly brilliant at the lower levels of the system. The promotion of Marmol though is much more surprising. He's only two years removed from being converted to the mound, and while his stuff is very promising (as reflected by his line at Daytona this year of 72.1 IP, 60 H, 7 HR, 37 BB, 71 K, 2.99 ERA), those 37 walks reflect the fact that his control, still, is not up to the required level. But the move has been made, and it'll be interesting to see how things play out, not just in terms of Marmol's performance, but also in terms of how the Diamond Jaxx construct the rotation around him and Marshall.
Prior to the move, the rotation in West Tenn was Nolasco (who's performance has receeded a little), Pinto (who, after a terrible time at Iowa, has gone back to West Tenn and basically been the dominant but still a little wild pitcher he was there last year), Ryu (great stuff, reasonable results), Pignatiello and Connelly (both "soft-tossers" with great control and plus off-speed stuff). Pignatiello has obviously been promoted to Iowa, but that still leaves six into five, so something's got to give. The options would appear to be either Pinto or Nolasco getting another shot at Triple-A, Ryu or maybe Connelly moving to relief, or one of Pinto, Nolasco, Ryu and Connelly being traded.
John Hill - thanks for the
John Hill - thanks for the detailed breakdown of the Cubs moves in the minors. Also, it will be interesting to see how things shakeout at West Tenn above and beyond the pitching situation. There seems to be a "3's a crowd" situation at both the middle (Lewis, Theroit, Coats) and corner infield positions (McGehee, Craig, Sing). It could be a coincidence, but it seems Sing's bat has taken a downturn with more regular playing time in the outfield instead of 1b (they were bound to come down from those absurdly good heights at some point). Not having seen these guys play in person, I have no idea if Sing is a viable player in the outfield (is he worse than Dubois?). From what I can tell checking the daily boxscores, at least Sing is not racking up errors in the outfield.
Also interesting that as a
Also interesting that as a result of those moves the Jaxx are down a player, and they're down to just five relievers (David Aardsma, Randy Wells, Jon Searles, Thomas Atlee, Andrew Shipman, all righties). Now Ryu or Connelly (who's a lefty) could move to relief, but they'd still be one short. Looks like there's more to come in this reshuffle.
One move I'm glad the Cubs
One move I'm glad the Cubs didn't make is promoting Gallagher a level. His performance has gone from absolutely superhuman to still-better-than-the-rest, and it looks to me like he could stand to play a complete season at one level.
If Daytona makes the FSL postseason, however, I wouldn't be surprised if Gallagher got called up for a start or two then.
Did i see Nic Jackson in
Did i see Nic Jackson in this article?? I thought the Cubs released him long ago?? Has he been injured this whole time?? Any info anyone has i would love to hear, he 'WAS' my favorite minor league Cub a couple years ago...
Talley Haines' K:BB ratio is
Talley Haines' K:BB ratio is sick. By doing some cursory research I see that we got him from the Red Sox. Anyone know how the details that brought Mr. Haines to the organization?
I don't know anything about
I don't know anything about Haines, other then he's 29 and dominating at AA, so I'm not so excited. But hey, maybe he'll be the next Borowski.
the blip I read about Jackson sounded like he was still a part of the Cubs organization. He's been struggling with this shoulder injury since 2000 and hasn't played an uninterrupted season since 2002, so hopes are not high for him.
haines was a 25th round pick
haines was a 25th round pick of the D'Rays in 1998 and was released by the Red Sox sometime this year. (It was listed at BA.com on May 25th, but he's been pitching for the Jaxx since April 29th).
he was a rule 5 draftee(i believe the minor league phase) of the blue jays last year and signed as a minor league free agent by the red sox this off-season.
FAO Hawkeye Basically the
Basically the Red Sox cut him (he's a career minor leaguer and they wanted to make room for actual prospects), the Cubs offered him a minor league deal.
Saxfax - Absolutely concur
Saxfax - Absolutely concur re: Sean Gallagher. I've got a rooting interest for Sean beyond the Cub factor as he's a fellow St. Thomas Aquinas HS grad from Ft. Lauderdale. Tyler Greene, the Cards first round pick this year, also is a STA grad ...
Not to gush, but I love you
Not to gush, but I love you guys. How cool is it that I was able to ask that question, and get multiple valid answers so quickly? The answer: very cool.
John, Rob, thanks much...
Recent comments
anyone else ready for the all-star break? =p
it's been a tough past couple weeks...except that reds series. i miss playing the reds. that was cool.
To take my mind of this latest disaster...wow, I thought baseball money was crazy, but NBA money is now super-wacko crazy. Joakim Noah is 31 with bad knees and absolutely no offensive game. He can't make a layup. The Knicks just agreed to pay him $72M over 4 years. Holy crap.
Thank you, Jason, for allowing me to get to bed at a decent hour. Very thoughtful.
It will be very interesting to see what Theo does at the deadline. Of course, if Jake doesn't get straightened out, it really doesn't matter. A lot of Jake's comments this year, and his posing for nudie pics in the ESPN magazine, rang some alarm bells -- after one great year (and it was amazingly great), his head has swelled tremendously. Jake, look up the word "hubris", then look in the mirror.
...and we're back from the 3rd rain delay.
at least the cubs have a decent backup of...ummmm....well the minor league system has...uhhh...hmmm.
maybe adam warren can manage to throw less than 100 pitches in 5 innings? no?
well damn.
Not to worry -- I'm sure Hammel will finish strong in the 2nd half of the season (~sad chuckle, reaches for Scotch bottle~).
Hammel has had a rather challenging last month. I am hoping post-break that Hendrix gets pushed ahead of him. They'll be lucky to win a game in NY
hey, alright...cubs losing by 9 and a 3rd rain delay. awesome.
If baseball does not work out for Patton, I think he's got a future in Civil War re-enactments. He's got a solid Johnny-Reb look to him.
David Ross - the mound awaits you.
RIP jason hammel's awesome ERA.
10 ER in 4ip...almost a full point tacked on tonight, alone. 5HR given up tonight. oogly.
Nimmo certainly does not want to see the Cubs leave town. His first MLB rbi last night and now his first HR.
At least Hammel is eating some innings ... this is the kind of game Peralta should be used if at all.
OK, the hell with it.
It's July 1 -- Hammel starting to suck right on schedule.
Other than sweeping the Reds -- a bad team actively trying to lose -- this will make 8 losses in 9 games to good teams (Cards, Marlins, Mets). Not good at all.
Belicheat a consultant for the Red Sox?
And, so, Jason Hammel decides to test my new resolution right away. Sheesh.
No Wright, no Duda, no Granderson -- no problem for NY. Ugh.

List of locations by index number (Generation VI)
From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Each location in the Generation VI games has its own identification number used internally by the game. They are enumerated here, in order. Locations such as routes with alternate names have their alternate names listed as an index number after the main location. Locations lacking an alternate name have the following index number blank.
If a Pokémon is transported through Poké Transporter, then its met location and Egg met location stay the same as they were in Generation V instead of changing to 30001 (Link Trade); however, this is not visible in-game, as the Pokémon's game of origin dictates the displayed met location in these cases.
|This article is part of both Project Locations and Project Games, Bulbapedia projects that, together, aim to write comprehensive articles on the Pokémon Locations and Games, respectively.

Deal or no deal: Dairy heavyweights slog it out for Warrnambool ownership
The battle to acquire Warrnambool Cheese and Butter Factory has evolved into a complex series of tactical manoeuvres that could make Sun Tzu's The Art of War seem like light reading. Since the first takeover approach was announced, the tussle for WCB has seen industry majors Saputo, Murray Goulburn and Bega Cheese competing for ownership of the Australian dairy. With the stakes high, it is clear that it is all still to play for. Katy Askew reports.

Latest Headlines
Citrix said the majority of IT decision makers in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) are interested in deploying enterprise mobility services, despite some remaining concerns over the security, cost and investment of such a move.
T-Mobile US is seeing strong momentum in its sales to small businesses, in large part because of its expanding LTE coverage footprint, according to a T-Mobile executive.
BlackBerry CEO John Chen said the company would consider getting out of the smartphone business in a year if it's not making money selling phones. Chen had previously said that he would consider exiting the handset business if it was not profitable, but had not given a timeframe for doing so.
Comcast Business has introduced its Voice Mobility product, a new phone line that includes a mobile app that allows employees to continue to get messages and calls if they are not at their desk or are on the road.
IDC said new opportunities are emerging for enterprise mobility vendors in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) as more companies are embracing mobility as a tool for increasing productivity and gaining a competitive edge.
At a time when BlackBerry's smartphone hardware business is shrinking, the company confirmed it will release a security and privacy-focused phone later this year called the "Priv" running on a modified version of Google's Android platform. BlackBerry CEO John Chen said the firm is working "with all of the major carriers" on the launch of the phone and thinks the company's security heritage will set it apart. However, BlackBerry reported revenue for its fiscal second quarter that missed analysts' expectations and a wider-than-expected loss.
BlackBerry reports results for its second fiscal quarter tomorrow, and the company's progress on growing its software revenue will again be in focus, as it was last quarter, with some analysts skeptical that BlackBerry can grow enterprise software sales as much as it hopes this year. Meanwhile, a new photo and details of BlackBerry's rumored phone running Google's Android platform leaked online.
Verizon Communications announced a new offering for businesses and government users that allows them to prioritize different enterprise and Internet of Things applications. Verizon said it is the first U.S. carrier to provide this kind of quality-of-service differentiation.
Ericsson and Hewlett-Packard are teaming up to take advantage of HP's $3 billion acquisition of Aruba Networks, a key player in the enterprise WLAN and Wi-Fi market. Ericsson and HP will resell each other's gear, especially in the enterprise market, and also integrate their technologies as they seek to go after the enterprise.
BlackBerry said it plans to buy longtime mobile enterprise rival Good Technology for $425 million, a move that would combine the world's second and third largest suppliers of enterprise mobility management software and would roughly double BlackBerry's market share in the space. The action also will likely simplify the sales enterprise process for wireless carriers; most U.S. carriers resell enterprise mobility management products from both companies.

ANAHEIM, Calif. — Shawn McCaughna may only be 6 years old, but he knows a good slot car race when he competes in one.
The youngster had nothing but praise for the Radiator Springs Racers after he finished zooming around Ornament Valley in a Lightning McQueen lookalike car that's part of the new $1.1 billion "Cars Land" expansion on the California Adventure side of Disneyland.
"It's great. It's good, scary," Shawn said after he and his younger sister Sydney and his parents ran the race. "We won!" he announced.
The siblings from North Carolina wanted to know two things when they were done: When does a "Cars 3" movie come out and could they go again?
They can if they have time to wait for another turn. The Fast Passes for the Radiator Springs Racers sell out early in the day, and the average wait time in the stand-by line is usually more than two hours.
The lines for the other two Cars Land rides are not as long, but the rides are a lot more low-key.
"Luigi's Flying Tires" is a kind of hovercraft bumper car ride that is very gentle and not for the thrill-seeker, more for the toddler.
"Mater's Junkyard Jamboree" is a whirling, twirling ride in trailers pulled by small tow trucks that's great for kids 3 and up.
Both work okay for a mild good time, but the racers rock. The racetrack runs through a realistic-looking desert canyon that mimics the romantic ride where Sally Carrera and McQueen drove outside of Radiator Springs in the first "Cars" movie.
At first, it's a leisurely ride with beautiful scenery right up until it takes off at high speed with squealing tires flying around hairpin turns and steeply pitched corners.
Add that to the detail everywhere you look in Radiator Springs, and it makes for an excellent visit to the imaginary Disney/Pixar hick town where McQueen meets Tow-Mater and a host of new best friends in the 2006 movie.
Flo's V8 Café serves up homestyle turkey and pork with gravy and potatoes and pie. The Cozy Cone Motel offers ice cream and popcorn in all flavors. Filmore's Taste-In has fresh fruit and juice.
Then there's the oddly finished part of Route 66 that McQueen had to work on after he ran into trouble in Doc Hudson's courtroom plus the signed picture of international spy Finn McMissile from "Cars 2" and a rubber tire jungle gym.
Cars Land is basically a 12-acre expansion that breathes new life into the California Adventure side of things complete with a Cadillac mountain range that features tail fins 125 feet long and 300,000-square-feet wide.
There's a hood ornament that stands high in the sky, and the cars use a technology known as Test Track introduced and tested at the Epcot Center in Walt Disney World in Orlando, Fla.
McQueen and Mater make regular personal appearances. Mater even has his own petting zoo.

Everything was perfect. Mr. bogdol has made it easy to stay in Berlin. His Apartment was great nothing to complain about.
I can only give the best rate ´- and I will certainly come Again.
My parents came to visit me in Berlin from Spain and I decided to book this apartment for them. That was the best thing I could have done. There were there like home.
The apartment is located in a quiet and beautiful neighbourhood, Shöneberg, very well comunicated with the citycenter. I really recommend to book a biclycle to visit the city, there is a place close to the apartment called "Radkeller" where it is posible to book one with a good price.
Everything in the apartment is perfect, nice decoration, confortable beds, clean and big bathroom, modern music player, heating for winter, and the best, a beatiful terrace with amazing views where we had breakfast every morning.
The owner was really nice and made things easy.
For all of this, I really recommend this place.
Very nice, cosy and clean apartment with nice view from the terasse. Quiet and nice area close to u-bahn and s-bahn. The host is very friendly and helpful.
The place are exactly the way you see it in the photos. But the terasse is bigger than it shows at the photo. Lovely spot.
Eine wirkliche Traumwohnung über den Dächern Berlins. Sie ist sehr schön und gemütlich eingerichtet, es fehlt an nichts. Die Dachterrasse ist noch schöner als auf den Bildern. Sie liegt zentral und man kann alle Sehenswürdigkeiten schnell erreichen.
Carsten ist ein netter, aufmerksamer und vor allem verlässlicher Vermieter, vielen Dank!
Schöne und gut gepflegte Wohnung, einfache und unkomplizierte Vermietung mit einem freundlichen Vermieter. Gerne wieder.
Alles TOP. Carsten ist ein toller Vermieter. Apartment lässt kein Wünsche übrig. Dachterasse, Bäcker nebenan, Parkplätze, alles geschmackvoll eingerichtet, Küche läasst nichts vermissen. Immer wieder!
Wir hatten schöne Tage in Berlin. Unser Gastgeber Carsten ist sehr nett und die Schlüsselübergabe hat gut geklappt. Die Wohnung ist einfach super, hell und sehr sauber und die Terrasse ist der Hammer.Es ist alles da, was man braucht. Nachteil sind die 110 Stufen bis oben. Aber nach dem dritten mal laufen hat man sich daran gewöhnt. Ich kann diese Wohnung nur weiter empfehlen.

Comments about 'For lesser crimes, rethinking life behind bars'

There is an organization called ALEC (The American Legislative Exchange Council)
that is pushing hard for not only very harsh minimum sentences, but also for
privatized prisons.
ALEC is a shady, secretive organization that recruits state and local legislators to its membership by offering low "dues" and lots of very nice freebies. Their real sponsors are a multitude of big corporations that pay bundles of money to belong and sponsor many of the freebies used to purchase legislative loyalty. On top of all that, they have managed through some very sneaky maneuvering to be classified as a "charity" so that their supporters may take tax deductions for their dues.
Most of their legislator members are of the GOP variety. The majority of Utah's GOP lawmakers are members of ALEC.
You can learn more by simply Googling ALEC and see what you find. It's downright frightening.

Eisenhower vs. New London for state title tonight
Battle of the state's top two D2 girls basketball teams
When No. 2 ranked New Berlin Eisenhower (27-0) and No. 1 ranked New London (27-0) meet Saturday night at 6:30 p.m. at the Kohl Center in Madison, it will be the seventh time two unbeaten teams have met for the WIAA State Girls Basketball Championship.
This is the first time it has happened in a Division 2 title game.
The last time it happened came in a Division 3 title game in 2009 as Amherst (27-0) beat Cuba City (26-1), 41-37.
In 1999 in a Division 4 title battle, Barneveld (27-0) beat Potosi (26-1), 49-42.
Before that the schools were divided by letters. It happened three times among 'A' Division schools and one in a 'B' Division title game.
In 1994 Milwaukee Washington (25-0) beat La Crosse Central (25-1), 58-54, in 1990 Milwaukee Washington (26-0) beat Eau Claire Memorial (26-1), 57-42, and in 1981 Wauwatosa East (24-0) beat Watertown (24-1), 36-25.
In the B Division game in 1986 Durand (26-0) beat Waterford (25-1), 56-54 (OT).

Toyota, Honda Plants Among Hundreds Closed by Thai Floods
Honda and Toyota have stopped all production in Thailand as that nation's floods continue to rip through industrial parks, and now threaten Bangkok.
Thailand is a major production base for the two Japanese car-makers, according to CBS.
At least five major industrial parks have been flooded (earlier coverage here) and hundreds of factories shut down, putting over 100,000 out of work. Thailand's Central Bank said the floods' total cost could rise to 100 billion baht ($3 billion). Since late July, the floods have killed at least 307 people, Reuters reports.
Over 200,000 people were evacuated yesterday from Thailand's oldest industrial park, Nava Nakorn in Pathum Thani, according to Bangkok-based The Nation. About 10 percent of the estate was flooded, CBS reported.
Companies with operations there include Nestle, Toshiba, Casio, Seiko and hard drive manufacturer Western Digital, which already had to shut down production at another factory park.
The flooding is likely to affect other companies operating in other countries, as they face a shortage of key components.
And last night Bangkok's governor said the city needs 1.2 million sandbags within 48 hours to keep the capital from flooding. The national government had said earlier on Monday that the flood threat to Bangkok appeared to be subsiding.
Because of the floods, industry has called on the government to ditch plans for a 40 percent rise in the minimum wage, Reuters reports. Thai authorities instead pushed back the start date for the increase, from January 1 to April 1.
The change will set the minimum wage at 300 baht a day for Bangkok and six other provinces, with lower wages for the rest of Thailand's 77 provinces.

It's too cold to queue outside. My jacket is zipped up, my shoulders are hunched and I'm mumbling something about stupid restaurateurs and their fascist door policies as the four of us shuffle to the back of the line, doomed to another half-hour of chill thanks to our blase attitude towards alleged queue-jumping.
This is London's hottest restaurant. I know this because everyone says so. Time Out says so. The Independent says so. My dining companion, Lizzie, a reliable barometer of cool, says so. It's clearly worthy of a visit. But are we worthy visitors?
The Soho establishment we're standing outside doesn't take bookings, which explains the queue. "It's a total London thing," Lizzie explains, shrugging her shoulders.
You can't even hold a spot in line for other people, as we'd been trying to do. Unless your party is there in its entirety, standing on the pavement in the cold, you won't be given a little "FOOD" stamp on your wrist, and you won't be allowed the privilege of entering the building and waiting another hour at the bar for a table to be cleared. So the four of us, now fully assembled, do the walk of shame to the back of the queue.
To borrow a quote from Will Ferrell in Zoolander, going bookings-free is so hot right now. Hence, so is queueing outside restaurants.
But that's not the only parallel here. The funny thing you start to realise after a few hours on the London dining scene is that a lot of the things that are so hot right now down under are so hot right now in Britain as well.
The place where we're attempting to eat is called Meat Liquor, which specialises in American diner-style food. We're talking burgers, fries, Buffalo wings and deep-fried pickles. As a cuisine, it's so hot right now.
(Wait, the name thing? Meat Liquor has followed in the footsteps of its London sibling Burger & Lobster, dedicating its moniker to its basic menu items.)
Meat Liquor is designed to replicate the food truck experience (so hot right now), serving simple fare on bits of paper towel instead of plates, and setting the whole dining area within graffitied walls meant to replicate the feeling of eating in a back alley in Shoreditch (so hot right now).
The food is solid American. The wine list is short. Beer is served in cans. Fancy cocktails are mixed to perfection, shaken with a flourish then presented to discerning diners in ... jam jars.
"Man, this is such a London thing," Lizzie groans, accepting her jam jar of booze. Then she looks across at me, figuring out what's going on.
I nod. "So hot right now."
Jam jars. What's next, Bloody Marys in empty tomato tins?
To clarify, this is not meant as an insult to the London dining scene. It's just an observation that the more the Western world shrinks, the more it becomes the same.
It used to be that what was new and cool in London or New York or Paris would take forever to filter its way to us on the other side of the world. So you would travel to these places and be shocked by the shops and bars and restaurants and by the look of the people patronising them.
Now, of course, as soon as something becomes cool overseas, it goes up on a blog somewhere (never fear - irony noted), is pored over by trend followers in every corner of the globe and immediately tweaked and followed. Globalisation renders our streets identical. Everyone's got a Starbucks and a Pizza Hut and a 7-Eleven. Zara in Madrid becomes far less exciting when there's Zara in Pitt Street, Sydney. Everyone's wearing the same clothes because they're buying them from the same stores.
They're drinking the same drinks. They're eating the same food.
Sometimes it's great, this shrinking of the world. It's hard to believe you can be an entire hemisphere away from home, yet with a few taps of a keyboard you can be staring into your parents' eyes as you assure them that, yes, you honestly believe your life is still on track.
You can meet long-lost friends via Facebook events. You can always get a triple grande hazelnut latte if you really want one.
But there's also the Meat Liquor effect. And the jam jars. And the queue outside.
Let's hope it's fleeting.

Belize: Supreme Court hears closing arguments from attorneys urging strike down of anti-sodomy law

If only Desmond Tutu were actually there in the courtroom to give his opinion. I really don't hold up much hope that this will go the way we would like it to.
It will, eventually. The strategy is clear. Ultimately anti homosexuality laws are unlawful, so whereas you may be right and the claim will be lost all the way up to the local court of final appeal, there will be a further appeal from there, to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in London. There, judges of the Privy Council will uphold an appeal (since the law is clear) and the law will be changed locally from there. See http://www.humandignitytrust.org and wish them success!
I was just wondering if this law also applies to straight couple who engage in anal sex or it it just reserved for us evil gays

Triangular cross section exhaust muffler
Image Number 6 for
United States Patent #7793758
The present invention is for a triangular cross section symmetrical engine exhaust muffler for an internal combustion engine. Its internal design provides baffles symmetrically disposed about a plane centrally located equidistant from the ends of a tube having a triangular cross section. The design has three baffles spaced to minimize backpressure but angled to enhance acoustic reflections within the chamber formed by the tube having a triangular cross section, baffles, and the affixed endplates including the inlet/exhaust ports. These acoustic reflections serve to modify the sound emanating from the exhaust manifold or manifolds of the internal combustion engine. The muffler chamber also serves to smooth out the pulsating gas flow emanating from the engine as a result of the combustion cycle.

Dubai-based 'flydubai' doubles its network in India
Dubai: Budget airline 'flydubai' will begin flights to three Indian cities, including Delhi, from Dubai next week, doubling the number of its destinations in India.
The Dubai-based carrier will operate four weekly flights to Delhi from June 1 and three weekly flights to both Kochi and Thiruvananthapuram from June 2 and 3 respectively.
The new routes will bring the total number of Indian cities served by the carrier to six, including its existing routes Ahmedabad, Hyderabad and Lucknow.
"I would like to take this opportunity to thank the authorities for granting us the approval to operate these flights between Dubai and India," said Ghaith Al Ghaith, the Chief Executive Officer of flydubai.
"The two nations share a lot of historic and cultural ties and the new flights will increase the trade and tourism potential while enabling the Indian expatriate community in the UAE to travel home to visit friends and family more often," he said.
Flydubai has seen strong demand for its flights since the start of its operations to India in 2010.
The carrier was set up by the Dubai Government to offer passengers services and create free flows of trade and tourism in previously underserved markets.
"These new flights will give passengers from different regions in India direct links to Dubai, enhancing flight connectivity beyond the city to GCC countries and to destinations in Africa, Central Asia, Russia and Europe, most of which have no or very few direct links to India," said Sudhir Sreedharan, Senior Vice President Commercial (GCC, Subcontinent, Africa) flydubai.
The airline operates a fleet of 36 Boeing 737-800 aircraft and has a network of 74 destinations, 48 of which were underserved markets.

I am toying with the idea of going to Andalusia this holiday season. If I can't make it work this year, I will go next.

Without delving into my life story, I have personal reasons for visiting Malaga. Just want to be there for four or five hours.

Day trip to Malaga?
I am toying with the idea of going to Andalusia this holiday season. If I can't make it work this year, I will go next. I am wondering if it is feasible to go to Malaga as a day trip from either Granada, Seville or Cordoba. If so, is it possible to do via public transportation or would a car be better?
Report Abuse
You can look up train schedule at www.bahn.com. For actually purchasing you need to use www.renfe.es, but the latter is more temperamental. For bus, you can use www.alsa.es, for example.
By train Cordoba is the easiest. Hourly trains taking about an hour each way. From Sevilla, it is about 2 hours. From Granada, train takes too much time.
By bus, Granada is the easiest. Seville takes little bit longer than train and really takes a lot of time from Cordoba.
Report Abuse
Wow, Greg, thank you. Exactly the information I was seeking.
Report Abuse
Yes, it's feasible. I normally wouldn't recommend without knowing the itinerary but your explanation on the personal reason is all we need to know.
I hope you are able to take this trip and the visit to Malaga is meaningful to you. It's a beautiful city.
Report Abuse
Leely, I just returned from 3 days in Malaga and am happy to offer any advice based on my brief stay. The train station (complete with bowling alley!!) is within walking distance of the historic center, as well as the port area and the stretch of beach to the west that is lined with fish restaurants.
Report Abuse
Cathy and eks, thank you both.
If I can get time off work and go this year, I think I would do Cordoba three nights w/day trip to Malaga, Granada two nights, Seville four nights. Does that sound about right and does the order make sense in terms of train/bus travel between cities? Flying from San Francisco, I haven't seen any open jaws that aren't nearly 24 hour itineraries so I will need at least one night in Madrid--though I would like more because I am a huge museum lover (the getting-time-away-from-work problem rears its ugly head here).
Report Abuse
If you're going to do a daytrip from Cordoba to Malaga then 3 nights would be good. Another alternative would be to add a night to Sevilla (for a total of 5 nights) and visit Cordoba as a daytrip, and then have 2 nights in Granada and 2 in Malaga. The downside is that you only have Cordoba as a daytrip, which is doable and many people visit Cordoba this way. The upside is you'd have more time in Malaga. You could cut this several ways. I think it's good that you're not trying to do too much and have alot of 1-nighters and moving around in a 10 day trip coming from the west coast of the US.

.comment: My Semi-Annual Security Rant - page 3
Orwell Was Right
The above are merely a handful of things that I've noted in the last couple of weeks. They're intentionally outside of the computer security concerns to which we devote a lot of time and discussion. That's because I think there's a tendency for us to develop tunnel vision, to presume that as long as our computers are buttoned up our lives are secure. And not even that is true -- an anonymous tip will practically guarantee that the constabulary will descend on your home or place of business and seize, among other things, your computing equipment. They will see everything that's on it -- which probably would be extremely boring, but would you be eager to learn the ways in which your hard drive contents could be misconstrued and misstated in a courtroom or on the evening news? Heaven help you if you have a kid who happens one night to type "I hate school" in an AOL chatroom window.
It's not that computing security is unimportant, because it is. Instead, it's that if we don't pay attention to the pokes and prods into other areas of our lives, and be as vigilant and vociferous in dealing with them, we're just rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. I've thought for some time now that we're entering the bread and circuses phase of Western Civilization. That's the end part, the part in which a fat and happy civilization gives up its freedoms in exchange for conveniences, the societal difference between opening your own email attachments or having them opened automatically with all the trouble that brings. We worry about it with our computers, but we oughtn't ignore it elsewhere, if things like privacy matter as much to us as we're forever bellowing that they do.
Something to think about, anyway.

Timaru offenders likely to be on register
Relevant offers
Some Timaru people are likely to feature on the child-sex offender register the Government is pushing ahead with.
Police and Corrections Minister Anne Tolley has confirmed ministers have signed off on plans to establish the database.
The database will not be open to the public.
It will be managed by the police, and only available to officials with security clearance from agencies such as the Department of Corrections and the Ministry of Social Development.
Police would also be able to inform people with children who become involved with a convicted child sex offender.
Timaru Detective Greg Harrison said he believed some names from Timaru would be on it but he had not seen any official announcement of the database.
However, he said the reality was it was now common for sex offenders to be known to the victims so he was not sure how much it would reduce harm in the community.
"It is no longer about stranger danger. It is Uncle Bill or Uncle Fred that is more likely to be committing the offence," Harrison said.
If National wins the election, Tolley hopes to introduce the register by the end of the year.
Initially, the list will run to 472 names and include those who have been released from prison or are serving a community sentence.
Offenders with name suppression would not be excluded. It is expected the index will eventually be expanded to target other sex offenders.
Tolley said research on the idea was "extensive".
"We want to stop these people falling through the cracks and disappearing into our communities at the end of their sentences," she said.
"We want to know where they are and have more information about their circumstances, so they can be managed, and increased risks of reoffending can be detected before they take place so that we have the chance to take action."
Failure to register is an offence punishable by imprisonment.
The length of time a person remains on the index depends on the offence. Under that system, offenders must register with police within three days of conviction or release from jail.
They are required to register every year, notify a change of address or whether they will be away for seven days or more.

Seann William Scott Might Be Engaged to a Former Victoria's Secret Model
Seann William Scott is close to walking down the aisle, if Life & Style is to be trusted. According to the publication, the Hollywood actor, who is famous for his portrayal of Steve Stifler in the "American Pie" movie franchise, has gotten engaged to former Victoria's Secret model Lindsay Frimodt.
Should this engagement rumor turn out to be a true one, Scott has kept the happy news a secret for a whole month. A source informed the publication that the 35-year-old, who lent his voice to Crash in "Ice Age: Continental Drift", had asked Frimodt "to marry him on Valentine's Day and she said yes."
When promoting "American Reunion" in Australia earlier this month, Scott insisted that he has no interest in other women. "I have a girl in my life, so I think she'd be really p**sed, but I gotta say I love Australia and have been here a lot," he told The Daily Telegraph. "But I was never really able to take advantage of being an actor, because I was always too shy to talk to girls."
Rumor of Scott's engagement itself surfaced nearly a year after the actor checked himself into rehab. "Seann William Scott has voluntarily admitted himself for proactive treatment to address health and personal issues," his representative announced in March last year. Less than a month later, it was said that he has "successfully" completed the 30-day program and is "doing great".
