Please go read the other posts on goals before reading this one if you want me to make a lick of sense at all. Even then it's questionable.
I got no new questions on anything this week, that I remember, that is, but I did get lots and lots of good comments about how writers are setting up their goals. Thanks, glad these things are helping a little.
But now to the hard part. It's fairly simple to take your dream and break it down into bite-sized pieces, to make the huge elephant something that can be swallowed, to extend that awful metaphor a little too far. But (extending it even farther) how do you keep biting and chewing in March, or May, or August?
The problem with year-end motivation and goal setting is that it often doesn't last past the first month or two. Life just gets in the way and things change and the sun comes out and the snow melts and suddenly there are other things just a little more important at the moment. Rejections make it worse. Months go by and suddenly you realize you have fallen off your goals, so you get down on yourself and then just swear you'll get back to it, but of course, you never do. Not really, not with any real energy until December rolls around again.
That sound familiar? Yup, to me too. Been there, done that, bought that tee-shirt so many times I have closets full of them.
So, now, here before the year starts, what can you do to make sure to keep climbing back onto the goals when you have a miss, when life just comes up and stops you cold for a week or two? Doing that is what makes a professional writer out of you, and doing that will make you very happy when you get to December 2009 and look back and realize you have hit most of your goals and are that much closer to your dream.
Back to the point that every writer is different, so with this problem, every writer seems to function differently.
First, I'll try to outline reasons that just keep writers writing day after day, month after month, year after year, then try to give you all a few tricks.
Frighteningly enough, that's a major reason many writers just keep pounding along. It's their addiction, or they have used it in replacement for other not-so-healthy addictions. If you have an addictive personality, start working writing into an addiction, one that just makes you cranky if you miss it for even a single day. Man, at times I wish I had this addiction. It makes life so much easier for those who have it to get lots of work done. But it makes it much harder for those around them, however, just as any addiction does.
Stunningly enough and hard to believe for those of you who have bought into the myth that there is no money in fiction writing, fiction writers make a lot of money, and many of us write for money as well as love. So if you have a really crappy job that you hate, pound the keys harder with the idea that for every hour you work on your writing is one hour closer to getting out of the crappy job.
This was my motivation for years and still is in part. Now understand, I have a five year degree in Architecture and went to three years of law school, but I stayed bartending after all that higher education (much to the disgust of my family and many friends). Why did I bartend instead of going and becoming a professional? Because cleaning up someone's puke at 2 in the morning made me go home that night and pound the keys. I often would get home at 3 in the morning and write until 5, then get back up and write all afternoon until I had to go back to the bar. I lived in a crappy small apartment so that I had very few bills and I spent every free moment thinking about writing and working on my writing, and every spare penny to go to conferences to listen to professional writers. (Also understand at this point I was well into my late-thirties and already had two marriages behind me. I looked like a loser to just about anyone in the real world, which was a ton of pressure as well.)
Yet somehow, through all the pressure, I had the belief that if I wrote hard enough, long enough, and fast enough, I could make my living writing fiction and get out of that bar. My last day of bartending was over twenty years ago now.
Most long term professionals I know have made themselves into natural story tellers. The key is we all LOVE story. We love telling stories, we eat up just about any story put in front of us, and if we had to write a laundry list, it would come out with a plot and a character in trouble. Often that nasty thing that beginning writers call "The Muse" snaps us and makes us write something we didn't have planned to write. Those are fun stories or books. Romance writers call them Books of the Heart. Often these books will drive a writer harder and longer than any other. The problem is, they don't often last, and you can't bring that feeling of fun and desire up with every project, so it isn't something to be counted on. When it hits, run with it, but don't plan on it hitting you or you'll be spending a lot of time in coffee shops talking with other want-to-be writers. Real professional writers sit down and write even when they feel they have nothing to write and no desire to sit there.
This is sort of like the money part, but not really. Some writers I know can just treat writing like a job and go to it every day with a real job structure, even when the job might not make them any money in the near future. This job attitude is a good one and works well for those of us who were brought up middle class with a work ethic. But there are no easy tricks I can give you to make this switch turn on in your head.
The key with this one is having a good, fair, but hard boss. Yup, the boss is you, and you have to be hard on yourself. The attitude is this: If I would call in sick at a real job and talk to my boss, then I can have the day off of writing. But if I would go to my real world corporate job, then I can't take the day off of writing. The boss would get angry. And since you are the boss of your own writing job, you need to be firm, yet fair.
This works for me at times, but then other times I just say "Screw it" and don't show up for work for months at a time. But, of course, I had that attitude about real world jobs as well, so my writing is no different.
Now notice, none of these mention writing because it's your dream. Every writer has that and it just isn't enough, sadly, to maintain long term commitment to this business.
So, to some tricks. These are basic tricks to keep you going for a time. If you are lucky, your writing will turn into an addiction, or a drive to make a living, or a job attitude. But to get it there, you have to set down the patterns and these tricks help set that up and get you back on track when life gets in the way.
Trick #1. Challenge.
The challenge has to be for something that matters, that has feedback loops, and is short in duration.
Nina Kiriki Hoffman and I challenged each other to write, finish, and mail one new story per week and we made missing hurt with having to buy the other a dinner and lots of grief. For us, this challenge lasted for years and helped us both set some patterns in our writing and get a lot of stories in the mail and sold.
Notice that the challenge with Nina hit all three of the goals I talked about in the last post. That's the best kind of challenge. So if you do set up a challenge with someone, or with your family, make it hurt if you miss. Make it so that you wake up worrying about missing. Then you got yourself something that will drive you to the computer on the really hard days and help set up the patterns.
Trick #2. Keeping track of how much you have in the mail on editor's desks.
Now I came up with a system to do this back in the early 1980′s and it ended up being called "The Race." It's an easy number system that gives instant feedback, hits all three goals mentioned last post and is sort of fun as well.
The Race is against yourself, of course.
— You give yourself one point for every different short story you have in the mail.
— You give yourself 3 points for every chapter and outline you have in the mail on an editor's desk. (Just three points per book, no matter how many editors you send it to at once.)
— You give yourself eight points for every full manuscript you have on an editor's desk. (Again, max of 8 points per book no matter how many editors are reading it at once.)
When the story or book sells and you get the check, you drop the points. Note I said "Get the Check." A sale, a contract can often fall through, but once paid, it counts and you lose the points.
Stunning how much fun this silly score-keeping system is. I keep track of mine every week and on one of the writer's boards of writers who have attended the workshops here, there is even a web site that keeps track for people. It is also always stunning how the writers with the most points make the most sales. Always happens for some reason.
So building your "Race Points" can work as a nifty way to keep track, and also, when a story comes back with a rejection, to keep the point you must put it back in the mail. This "Race" helps with most of Heinlein's Rules.
Trick #3. Getting a streak going.
Now, this works for those writers who have the ability to be very consistent in life. I've known writers who hit two pages per day, 365 days a year (yes, holidays, sick days, birthdays) and kept it going for years and years. Of course, the writers who did this also mailed what they wrote and they are well published authors now. I personally find this stunning and amazing and I admire those who can do it. Loren Coleman challenged me to try this last May, at least one page per day, and I made it one month without an issue, then just sort of went "Yup, I can do that." And I stopped.
So if you can get a streak going of some sort, it makes a lot of natural pressure to not break the streak. This is like a person trying to stop drinking. You have to take it one day at a time and count the days since you last fell off. This works. Fred Pohl, of course, is known that for decades and decades he did four pages per day, 365 days a year, without a miss. I admire that man a great deal, both for his writing, his long career, and his ability to do that every day. He's in his 90′s now and still going at it. Stunning.
So, as you set up your goals for 2009, take a look at a few of these tricks, or write me with one of your own, and get that as a firm goal as you start. It will help you keep focused on making it through the hard months and to a place in December 2009 when you look back and are happy with your year.
Cheers, Dean

Last week well all the violence in the Middle East and certainly -- concern about rising oil prices Libya epicenter of the unrest is home to Africa's largest oil reserves in the course plays a key role in global supply.
Our next guest Mizuho securities energy's future as direct -- -- joins us now Bob.
How concerned are you what's with what's going on in the Middle East and the likelihood that.
Oil supply could be disrupted.
Well we have a couple problems moving -- once in the Middle East first of all there's the recent unrest that led to the -- -- of the Libyan ambassador the United States ambassador to Libya last week.
I'm not imply that there could be some kind of falling way the situation in Libya Libya is a big producer.
Obviously -- production was taken off the market and no -- Qaddafi but has come back on board rather quickly.
At the same time you have -- any situation where there's a lot of barrels taken off the market already -- a function of the sanctions.
The United States.
Armed forces along with I think -- way to other countries are maneuvering -- -- Strait of Hormuz -- now.
In a mine sweeping operation.
So those barrels -- are gonna take it off the market the market -- really not afford to take many more barrels off the market.
So the unrest threatens the -- provide additional barrels at a very crucial time.
But the but the price movement hasn't been fact.
Hi to the upside -- -- why is that -- that psychological hundred dollars a barrel a level.
Do we push -- that anytime soon maybe this week.
Well everywhere throughout last week but there's a lot of -- -- is going on here he had unrest last week.
You have got -- I Iranian situation that's been cooking for quite some -- some time some you have the QE3 situation that it weakens the dollar bids commodities in general.
And on a technical level of the crude oil market trade did the 200 day moving average last week you know that's a very strong technical level that people haven't -- looking -- It's it's it's of -- the strong technical level for all commodities all.
But actually traded instruments so where do you see oil going now I understand it -- a lot depends on what's going on in the Middle East and what happens next but you know what do you think based on the fundamentals of the market right now -- you think oil will go.
Why do like it through a hundred dollars I see it going through hundred dollars that may be at the 105107.
Is a number -- a lot of people been talking about we have a view that wave -- -- currency that for the last year.
Out of that area and so I think we convinced we can get very what we're thinking we're forgetting about though there was a lot of recent talk about the strategic petroleum reserve off -- -- -- the higher we got out.
The more I feel that we'll hear talk along those lines.
Now there's also drag race to the -- and it's harder and harder for political reasons I think the pull the trigger on that's PR relays.
As we get closer to the election will be a lot of accusations about being a political instrument you know so there's that the company played also -- But it we CBS situation Middle East settle old died down a little bit then you could see to refocus on what is still fairly weak global economies ago we see a big sell off in oil.
Well they're -- It is definitely lagging low but there are just so many moving pieces -- now you know even.
You even have to keep a good consideration the average rallies days is so much more expensive to bring to the market that a had been the past we have a lot of even in this country we have.
A lot of crude oil that we have Bob managed to bring to the surface but it cost a lot more money than it used to so that's also it added.
Pressure on the other -- cost of but bringing.
Crude oil to surface that's very good point were Rudy at a time thank you so much Bob yoga energy futures director of Mizuho securities we appreciate it thank you.

Something That Works
What I learned from Amma
by Rob Parsons
write the author
Water lilies at Amma's ashram near San Ramon, California
photo by: Elissa Van Poznak
July 05, 2007
An ounce of practice is worth more than tons of preaching.
-Mohandas K. Gandhi
The enormity of the problems and challenges surrounding our planet and its current 6.7 billion inhabitants can be very unsettling. Sometimes it seems our best efforts to stop the war, save the whales or protect the environment are mere drops in a very leaky bucket.
As regular readers of this column know, it's my intention to inform and inspire so that collectively we may make better choices, both in our own community and for the planet as a whole. Far be it from me to preach, but I would like to share my observation of a phenomenon that qualifies as the greatest form of renewable energy I've ever seen.
The last stop on my two-week Mainland jaunt brought me to the San Francisco Bay area. A short freeway drive to the east is San Ramon, and tucked back in the rolling, golden hills of horse country is M.A. Center. The picturesque ashram there, complete with rose gardens and lotus-filled lake, is a spiritual retreat attracting thousands who travel to be with guru Maya Amritanandamayi, or Ammachi, the "Indian hugging Saint."
When someone asked Amma why she receives every person who comes to her in a loving embrace, Amma replied, "If you ask the river, 'Why do you flow?' what can it say?"
Amma (Hindu for "Mother"), as she is known all over the world today, has inspired and started innumerable humanitarian services.
"She is recognized as an extraordinary spiritual leader by the United Nations and by the people all over the world," states the website
. "Though Amma makes no claims herself, those who watch her closely notice that she is the greatest example of her teaching. Her disciples and believers absorb her teachings by just watching her."
For the past 35 years Amma has dedicated her life to the uplifting of suffering humanity through the simplest of gestures—an embrace. Each year, she tours India, Japan, North and South America and Europe. With a simple hug, she has personally blessed and consoled more than 25 million people.
My wife Heather met Amma back in 1988, at a small gathering in Carmel, California. That was the second year she visited the United States, which also included a stop on Maui. There, she appeared at an event at old Maui High in the creaky gymnasium building, since burned to the ground. Amma hasn't returned to Hawai'i since.
Heather first brought me to the ashram near San Ramon in June 2000, two months after we were married. I trusted her judgment, and went into the experience with an open mind and heart. What I noticed then, and in subsequent visits, is that the ashram is a microcosm of something that works.
Thousands of people may visit daily, and the large property is well planned, with parking lots, trails, kitchen, dining hall and a large A-frame assembly hall. Volunteers guide the traffic, greet visitors, chop the vegetables, serve meals, wash dishes and do all other manners of seva (spiritual practice of selfless service). It is expected that each visitor may perform some seva, to contribute to the greater good of all. In recent years the ashram has added a snack bar, espresso stand, chair massage, flower stand and a used/new clothing store, all of which are staffed by volunteers. The proceeds go to Amma's numerous charities.
As someone who has scrutinized many a development proposal and political candidate, I'm constantly reminding myself to "follow the money" to find the real story behind the glossy exterior. In the case of Amma, the broad reach of her charitable endeavors is astonishing. Amma has used charitable donations to accomplish what governments and corporations have not.
The December 2004 tsunami ripped through Indonesia, India and Sri Lanka, leaving close to 200,000 dead and many thousands more homeless. Amma immediately pledged $23 million in support, much to her followers' surprise. Since that time, she has provided temporary shelters and fed thousands; helped oversee building 5,000 new homes, supplied medical care, vocational training, and textbooks; and presented new sewing machines for the women and boats for fisherman. Actual services provided were estimated at nearly $46 million.
A year later, Amma was among the first to donate to the Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund, bestowing $1 million to aid recovery efforts along the Gulf Coast. M.A. Center volunteers provided food, clothing, school supplies as well as emotional support.
The South India province of Kerala, where her main ashram is located, has the highest literacy rate of all India. There Amma's charities have built a state-of-the-art hospital, university, medical college, engineering institute, nursing school, orphanages and much more.
In Hindu, the term Mahatma is reserved as a title of respect for those renowned of spiritual virtues and high-mindedness. Like her great countryman, Mohandas K. Gandhi, who helped show the world the value of peaceful resistance, Amma is similarly revered. A satguru or "true teacher," Amma has challenged some of the traditional, patriarchal beliefs which have long guided the religious and political practices of her homeland India, and beyond.
Born in a small fishing village in Kerala in 1953, as a young girl Amma was often shunned and thought strange, as she would be immersed in spiritual reverie. Her compassionate qualities were also apparent at an early age, as she would take food or clothing to elderly or poor neighbors, and attend to their housekeeping or other needs.
Today, she continues to offer darshan (literally, "presence with the guru," but now synonymous with her hugs) to thousands of people every day. When someone asked Amma why she receives every person who comes to her in a loving embrace, Amma replied, "If you ask the river, 'Why do you flow?' what can it say?"
For me, visiting the San Ramon ashram to watch and receive Amma's darshan was a mesmerizing experience. With a rousing backdrop of live Indian bhajans (devotional singing) and a full band of musicians, sometimes lasting all night, the energy seemed to spiral right up through the roof. Hour after hour, person after person arrived in the line for their embrace with Amma. Some left weeping, others smiling ear to ear.
My own experience is of deepening appreciation and wonderment with each visit and every hug. Much as our cars need a regular tune-up, and our homes a spring cleaning, we count on this yearly sojourn to bolster us and inspire our efforts. With our spiritual batteries charged, we come to cherish the magnitude of grace in our lives, even with the apparent craziness of the world surrounding us.
I relish Amma's unwavering positivity, omniscience and nurturing spirit. She reminded me that each act of compassion and selfless service is its own reward, no matter how insignificant it may seem in the big scheme of things. Even a small pebble dropped into a large pond will alter its surface, sending ripples far and wide.
As we try to surf the little ripples and big waves that come at us each day, it would be nice if we could do so with the reverent joyfulness and compassionate attentiveness shown by Amma. By doing so, we just might be creating something that works. MTW

Mini Olympics Update: Wednesday
Friday, November 23, 2012 | 9:35 AMSupercross racing at the 2012 Winter Olympics finally comes to an end and the champions have been crowned. Star Racing Yamaha's Cooper Webb was the big winner, taking home three titles in the A class. TLD Honda's Shane McElrath was able to stop Webb's streak by winning the 450 Pro Sport class with 1-1 moto finishes, but came up short in the other classes. Other notable riders that rode impressive on the Supercross track were Yamaha's Paul Coates, Jace Owen, KTM's Dakota Alix and GEICO Honda's Matt Bisceglia. GEICO Honda's Jordon Smith won all but one moto in the B class and dominated all the championships he rode in. The C class saw Addison Emory IV win two titles on his Suzuki, with run away sweeps of every moto.
In the Mini Bike classes, Yamaha's newest prospect, Chase Sexton wrapped up three titles and didn't lose one moto. KTM's Brock Papi surprised a lot of people by bringing home the 85cc (9-11) Modified title and was the only rider to beat KTM's Jordan Bailey all week. Undefeated Amateur National Champion Ryder Difrancesco's streak comes to a end as New York's Nick Ramono won the 50cc (4-6) Stock class by passing Difrancesco and pulling away for the win. The Mini Bike classes have so much talent and jumping skills these days that the future of supercross racing looks bright.
Cooper Webb was the big winner in the A class, taking home three titles in SX.
Rob Koy photo
The talk around the pits is geared towards the excitement, as most riders made it through Supercross healthy and are now ready to "hang it out" on the National track. Almost half of the riders camping and racing did NOT race Supercross and are only here for the National track racing, which began yesterday morning. The vibe in the pits is revved back up and the riders that didn't have a strong Supercross showing get a second chance to prove themselves again and earn a #1 plate one last time until next year.

That Addison Emery dude needs to move the f*&k up in class. He raced the Baja Brawl here in Millington, MI and cleaned up in the C Class then. What kind of racer travels the country racing the C class?
That ronnie barnhardt dude needs to work a little harder. What kind of racer expects all of the competition to go away so he can actually win a race?

Women's 100: North America
Outside the Rapha North America office.
Around the world, the Rapha Women's 100 rides kicked off this Sunday past and North America was no exception. Before heading out early Sunday morning we had the chance to peruse the hashtag and see all the #Womens100 entries that had come in through the night from Japan, Australia and of course the whole of Europe. They were an inspiration to say the least. Below are a few stories from around North America that we've collected.
Cynthia Young – Vancouver, BC
There really is something magical about feeling like you're part of a global community of cycling sisters.
Throughout our ride, we talked about our experiences of riding with women. Sometimes it's amazing but sometimes not. Sometimes ride expectations don't line up when more experienced riders aren't willing to sacrifice their pace in the name of mentorship, and slower riders get frustrated if they think they are holding the group up. But the Women's 100 ride was perfection. We were all there for the same reason: to celebrate women and cycling; to be in awe of the world's greatest race, this year celebrating its 100th edition; to feel the empowerment of our fellow 100 ladies riding the Etape; and to enjoy the connection with the road and wheels and what it means to be female and ride a bicycle.
One of the women in our group was tackling her first ever 100km ride. She seemed surprisingly at ease about aiming for that 'longest ride ever'. I think she just knew that we had her back – that there weren't any expectations and that we would all rally to make sure she enjoyed her day in the saddle. Solidarity. And we celebrated with her at the end of the day, her accomplishment was our accomplishment. We felt inspired.
Another of the riders, adjusting to life as a new mom, is a former ultra-endurance athlete, she is finding her new 'normal' with 'shorter' rides. Finding the enjoyment in a ride that doesn't take all day but still leaves you satisfied. The satisfaction that comes from connecting with those with a similar passion.
We looked good and we felt good. We savored the tailwinds and the headwinds. We rode 100 kilometers. Together.
Abby Watson– Portland, Oregon
My Women's 100 experience was centered around a special guest - my mom. It was my parents who got me into cycling in 2006 and helped me ride what (at the time) seemed like the impossible distance of 50 miles. Fast forward seven years and here we are in Portland in a group of 50-plus cyclists about to depart on a 100km ride that I'd done my best to organize. I was nervous not only about how the event would go but also for my mom, who had somewhat timidly agreed to participate with me during her visit to Portland. My parents live in Ohio and I hadn't ridden with them in years. I knew my mother was stubbornly committed to riding alone and at her own pace. Don't get me wrong, my mom is exceptionally strong (and strong willed).
Right from the start I said to her, "Do not coast, just keep pedaling!", but I kept hearing the unmistakable buzz of her Chris King hubs behind me. I watched the group begin to ride away from us within the first few miles . "Okay, just keep pedaling, we're going at our own pace, this is going to be fine, we're having fun, we can do this, right?"
Right. I relaxed about keeping up, set a course for having fun, and my mom rode strong. We soon caught a group up the road and, over the course of the day, her consistent, steady speed overtook tiring riders who'd gone out fast and early. She climbed strongly, rode smoothly, descended cautiously (as always) and we finished together. I'm impressed by everyone who participated in the Women's 100 on Sunday but I'm most proud of my mom.
Jen Nordham – New York City, New York
We rolled out with 23 riders and acquired a few more along the way - the perfect sized group. No flat tires. No lost or dropped riders. The rider who traveled furthest to take part came all the way from Sweden and she was so happy to complete 100k that she cried. My friend, Cait Dooley, surprised me by driving down from Boston that morning just for the ride, too. It was fun to talk with new friends and old as we ticked off the kilometers toward 100. I can't give away any of the juicy gossip, but I assure you of one thing… the ride was rad.
Lauren Kling & Joy Stark – Boston, Massachusetts
I have never seen so many women together for a group ride before! Our local ride had two waves for the 100-mile ride and, I believe, five waves for the 100k ride. It was out of the Ride.Studio.Cafe in Lexington, MA and organized in collaboration with us, RSC, and the ladies of RAWRbikes.com. Joy made a group flickr for people to upload photos to and already uploaded her own pictures from the ride. The link is here: http://www.flickr.com/groups/rsc-raphawomens100/pool/.
Thanks for giving so many women out there a great excuse to ride and put down some miles together!

It's better when they don't remember my name, because maybe they won't strike up a conversation in the first place.
Allison's alimony chick
I'm not offended at all. My name is very boring and easily forgettable.
Love the life you live
Live the life you love ~ Bob Marley
No, I don't get offended at all. I meet a lot of people with my job so I know that it is difficult sometimes to keep names straight.
My girl has a female friend who we do stuff w/ about 7 - 10x a year. Her brother is always there.
He is a tall skinny, pimply ginger with an Asian girlfriend. Memorable enough.
Before he dated the Asian, he dated this loon who would mix her meds with booze.
One night she was freaking out and wailing so loud the cops had to be called to the party. I LITERALLY caught her as she jumped out of the guest bathroom window right before the cops arrived.
To this day (after maybe 50+ meetings), the ginger will still come up to me and my girl, squint, kinda point and say "Yeah, I think maybe I met you one time before somewhere... 'sup??, nice to meet you!"
I save people the embarrassment and reintroduce myself if there is even a hint that they have forgotten. It's better for both of us that way. They save face and make it a priority to remember so they don't look bad the next time.

Yes, I like it.
No, and I explained why not.
Suggestion: Challenge mode in HoN
If you've played SC2 you've probably also tried their Challenges mode.
In SC2 it's basically a set of different challenges. You get a bunch of different units, and then have to distribute them to different challenges, having to consider what is good against what.
Or you get a few units and you have to micro them properly to succeed against waves of enemies or in different missions.
I think it would be really cool to have a similar setup in HoN.
Meeting a wave of randomly, fast-moving enemies and having to hit them with a limited amount of stuns.
Or having to land 5s javelins on a couple of enemies as .
Or hitting different moving targets across the map as with ulti.
Or maximizing DPS as :chro: during an ulti, with a couple of items.
Or crowd-controlling a certain amount of heroes the maximum amount of time as with :KuldrasSheepstick::Stormspirit: before they kill you.
Good idea or not? Can you think of more challenges?
Also check Replace Tutorial with Challengesout (archived suggestion), byRadio_Raheem
It has a lot of good ideas related to this

Tried to do this once, it's been archived since. I fully support this and submit my OP as an idea farm for you.
This looks like a modified map :P like those we had at Wc3
Thanks Lhune!
Sorry for my bad English!
Im for it. Not that it will help the newcomers it could help the experienced player meet the new heroes. So besides your basic suggestion id say challenges should be added when the new heroes are so everyone could learn the concept of that hero. I know there are spotlights but its different watching someone and doing it yourself.
Yeah, also a good idea.
Could be a good way of understanding new heroes.
good idea yea - might even help some novice players to find out things like orb walking or spell canceling

Early Season Standouts
It's early and I continue to preach patience in the fantasy baseball game. Hopefully you're able to heed that advice. Whether you've made one move or 11 thus far is irrelevant though to what follows in this piece. I'm just gonna randomly touch on some players that have stood out to me in the early going, so here goes.
Chris Denorfia is a 4th outfielder who doesn't play every day, but boy can he hit when called upon. Chris is hitting .395 in 38 at-bats this season and dating back to the start of last season he has hit .303 with a .357 OBP over 386 at-bats. He doesn't have a ton of pop, 11 homers in that time, but he also has a sneaky 15 steals. He's a great option in NL-only leagues.
Doug Fister improved to 3-0 Tuesday as he lowered his ERA to 2.77 (he also owns a WHIP of 1.10). Overlooked because of his flashy teammates and lack of elite numbers, some have neglected to note that Fister has been very impressive as a Tiger, and I'm not giving him props cause I have nothing else to do. Through 252 innings with the Tigers Fister is 21-11, has a 2.93 ERA and 1.09 WHIP. Oh, and that 4.48 K/BB ratio is over the top good. When will he get the respect he deserves Detroit? Isn't R E S P E C T by Aretha Franklin, one of those that made Detroit into Motown, a song that you should all be singing?
Jedd Gyorko is expected to remain the starter at second even with Chase Headley returning to action. Alex Amarista is lurking if Gyorko continues to struggle, so the question becomes will the rookie continue to struggle or will the Padres eventally turn to Amarista (don't forget about Logan Forsythe either as he is working his way back from injury)? Jedd has flashed his solid plate discipline, his 0.73 BB/K ratio is proof of that, and he's still getting on base at a better than league average rate with a .339 OBP even though he's hitting .240. Still, he's yet to go deep in 50 at-bats so many are likely disappointed with his effort.
Matt Kemp has never been at a lower place than he is right now. Kemp is hitting .185 with 17 Ks and no homers in 14 games. You know what I say? Buy that guy on the cheap. A breakout is, without question, coming.
Victor Martinez had three hits Tuesday to push his average up to .200. The guy is a .302 career hitter who has hit at least .302 his last three seasons. V-Mart will hit, jujst give him time. Remember, he missed all of last season with that knee injury and it takes some time to get back in the groove. Buy him on the cheap if you can.
To see how others are evaluating players don't forget to go to Fleaflicker.com where you can check out the owned percentages of all your favorite players.
Jordan Pacheco hit .309 last year. He has hit .306 for his career. He's batting .304 this season. It's only 582 at-bats in total for the guy, but I think it's safe to say that he is one of the better depth plays in NL-only leagues. If he ever got full-time work…
Fernando Rodney had 48 saves last year with a historic 0.60 ERA. There's no chance he's gonna repeat that. I know, way to go out on a limb. So far he's allowed five hits and walked a batter while getting just eight outs leading to a 10.13 ERA and 2.25 WHIP. It's far too early to panic, especially after his great WBC, but don't say I didn't warn you.
Pablo Sandoval is fat. Pablo Sandoval is loveable. Pablo Sandoval can hit. Through 13 games he is batting .320 with 14 RBIs. He's also struck out only three times on the year.
Mike Trout is a player I've written extensively about. You all know my thoughts on him. If we allow that he will maintain his current pace over 150 games he would produce the following 5×5 line: .300-11-54-86-11. Obviously even I think he will do much better than that. However, I think it's fair to be concerned that he has attempted only one steal in 14 games after running 54 times in 139 games last season.
Barry Zito… told you so. Zito was lit up for nine runs while recording eight outs Tuesday against the Brewers. That horrific outing leaves him with a 4.86 ERA and 1.44 WHIP, numbers that aren't that far off his 4.15 and 1.39 marks of last season.

Zack Hearn, deputy director for benefits in the Legion's Veterans Affairs & Rehabilitation Division, is testifying at a hearing by the House Subcommittee on Disability Assistance and Memorial Affairs: "Adjudicating VA's Most Complex Disability Claims: Ensuring Quality, Accuracy and Consistency on Complicated Issues."
Share your thoughts - 1 comment
Edward Lilley, an American Legion national field service representative, is meeting with the Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Network Support to learn more about the office and get an update on current concerns.
The American Legion is a national member organization of USA Baseball. Involvement with USA Baseball and its Board of Directors provides the Legion a voice and networking opportunity among representatives of other youth baseball organizations and Major League Baseball.
The Legion's System Worth Saving Task Force is conducting a site visit of the El Paso Veterans Affairs Medical Center. During the visit, the task force will focus on VA's accomplishments and progress over the past 10 years, current issues and concerns, as well as VA's five-year strategic plan for several program areas, such as VA's budget, campus alignment, staffing, enrollment/outreach, hospital programs (e.g. mental health, intensive care unit (ICU), long-term services and support, homelessness programs) information technology and construction programs.
Staff from the Legion's Legislative Division are attending the semi-annual roundtable for veterans/military service organizations hosted by Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. Two top issues the Legion wants to discuss: advance appropriations for VA, and the failure of Congress to adequately address the funding issue for community-based outpatient clinics.
Staff from the Veterans Affairs & Rehabilitation Division are meeting with Dr. Tracy Gaudet, director of VA's office of patient-centered care, and Dr. Jan Kemp, VA's national suicide prevention coordinator, to discuss complementary alternative medicine therapies and treatments for TBI and PTSD currently being performed throughout the VA health-care system.
Also today, Dean Stoline, deputy Legislative director, is attending the Senate Committee on Veterans' Affairs markup meeting to consider pending legislation.
Veterans who use the El Paso Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center are urged to attend an American Legion System Worth Saving town hall meeting at 7 p.m. tonight. The meeting will take place at American Legion Post 58, 4724 Vulcan Avenue in El Paso, Texas.
Zack Hearn, deputy director of benefits for the Veterans Affairs & Rehabilitation Division, and Ian de Planque, deputy director of the Legislative Division, are participating in a conference call with Government Accountability Office (GAO) staff. Congress has requested GAO to review VA's accuracy and consistency regarding the adjudication of benefits claims. Those participating in the conference call will discuss:

The alcohol is well hidden. M - Thick but not quite as chewy as I expected. A low carbonation that helps ensure a smooth delivery.
