Stock markets gyrate, gold heads to $2,000 an ounce, America's credit rating is downgraded and politicians confer, pronounce and fulminate. How did we get here? And more importantly, where are we going?
We got to where we are because of bad policy-making. In America, the president decided to expand the reach of the state and use his grandchildren's credit cards to pay for it. The reaction was not long in coming: in the first congressional election after Barack Obama moved into the Oval Office, voters gave Republicans control of the House of Representatives and enough Senate seats to block any legislation the Democrats might try to ram through.
So we have a Democratic president determined to expand the state — the last budget he submitted called for a $10 trillion (£6.15trillion) increase in spending — backed by a party that sees its historic mission as preventing any erosion in the benefits promised pensioners, the sick, students and a host of other constituencies. In the opposing corner is a Republican party dominated by a faction that opposes all tax increases and is equally determined to shrink the state.
The result is a stand-off and rising double-digit, Greek-style deficits, with total government debt on a path to equal the value of all the goods and services the economy can produce in a year. That, say experts, means interest payments on the debt will claim so much of the nation's income that there will be less left over to sustain living standards.
In short, we in America got to where we are in much the same way that Britain got to where it is: through government spending so high as to require massive borrowing because, even though tax revenues were rising, they could not keep pace with faster-rising spending.
The similarities end there, however. Britain has a parliamentary dictatorship. If the opposition doesn't like the government's spending plans, it can vote "no" and write press releases and pamphlets. America has the checks and balances of the constitution — the president sends a budget to Congress, which immediately marks it dead on arrival. Then the bargaining begins. And with elections every two years, whatever one Congress finally agrees to can't bind the next one, making any long-term, credible deal difficult to come by.
The institutional arrangements in the eurozone are even less conducive to good policy-making. Unlike Britain and America, eurozone countries do not have control of their own economies — they surrendered that when they signed up to the euro. No eurozone country can print money, so monetary easing is not an option unless the European Central Bank decides it is — and the ECB will do so only if Germany doesn't object, which it most often does.
And no eurozone country has a currency that it can allow to depreciate, as Britain has done with sterling and America with the dollar, to drive growth by increasing exports. Greece and colleagues can become more competitive in our globalised economy only by cutting wages and increasing productivity, the latter a long-term process opposed by entrenched interests.
So we got to where we are by policies — made by man, changeable by man — that first assumed there is no tomorrow That process creates the danger of what economists call the austerity trap. This can happen if a cut in government spending forces the economy to shrink, in turn increasing the burden of debt payments, which do not shrink. That, say shadow chancellor Ed Balls and Obama, is what the economist John Maynard Keynes warned would happen, and what his acolytes say will happen unless both our countries, and the eurozone bureaucracy, ease up on austerity and continue borrowing, at least for now.
The anti-Keynesians respond that no country can borrow its way to prosperity or grow if it increases the tax burden on private-sector wealth producers instead of reining in spending: cut spending and borrowing and lower taxes, and ride the resultant growth to a new era of prosperity.
So we got to where we are by policies — made by man, changeable by man — that first assumed there is no tomorrow, or that if there is, future generations would pick up the bills for this generation's party. And because holders of differing views prefer to hurl at each other copies of Keynes and Friedrich Hayek, his arch rival, rather than compromise.
The underlying assumption that someone out there would indefinitely accept our IOUs is not as barmy as it sounds. China needs to keep its export machine humming. To do that, it undervalues its currency to keep its exports cheap for America's Walmart customers, and accepts pictures of American presidents printed on bits of paper in return for the products of its workers. It then uses those dollars to buy US Treasury IOUs.
That's why it is so unhappy that the ratings agency Standard & Poor's downgraded Treasury bonds. But other bond markets simply cannot absorb the more than $1 trillion that China must invest, so China will continue to buy US Treasuries.
As for the euroland countries, they, too, know — or at least assume — they have a creditor of last resort: Germany. Germany can let Ireland, Greece, Portugal, Spain and Italy wallow in their debt-ridden, no-growth economies until the bond markets declare them bust or bail them out. It has chosen bail over fail.
Why? Because Chancellor Angela Merkel knows that German banks hold a lot of dicey IOUs from those countries and might collapse if that paper is devalued or worthless.
So everyone is unhappy. Germany is angry with slothful residents of Europe's sunnier countries; eurozone politicians are unhappy with Germany for not lending still more to stricken countries; China is angry with the Americans because its loans might be repaid in devalued dollars; Obama is unhappy with the Republicans for refusing to raise taxes, and they with him for refusing to cut entitlements; Labour is unhappy with the government for inflicting too much pain on Ed Miliband's "squeezed middle" (everyone except bankers, it seems); and investors — except so-called "gold bugs" — are unhappy with just about everyone as the value of their pensions and portfolios follow the downward spiral pioneered by the value of their houses, and fluctuate unnervingly.
Most of all, America's voters are unhappy: only 40% approve of how the president is doing his job, only 10% approve of how Congress is behaving and about two-thirds think the country is on the wrong track.
That's the good news. Britain's voters more or less have to live with their government's policies for the next four years. Europe's voters have been effectively disenfranchised by a cunning bureaucracy that finds ways to avoid consulting them. And China's masses ask: "What is a voter?"
But America's voters will go to the polls in November next year and have an opportunity to choose between conflicting visions of their future. Their decision will be the first of two that will answer the question: where are we headed?
Voters will have an opportunity to endorse Obama and his party's vision of an America more like social democratic Europe: higher taxes, smaller cars, a high-cost energy economy run on wind and sun, government-run healthcare, slower growth and redistribution of income to increase equality. Or they can opt for a return to entrepreneurial capitalism with higher levels of inequality than Europeans and Obama find acceptable, and more rapid growth that would generate a flow of funds to the US Treasury with which to pay down debt.
The role of growth is important: it is common gossip in Washington that the Congressional Budget Office is about to lower the 3.5%-4.5% annual growth forecast embedded in the last budget the president submitted. The result: our $14 trillion deficit will increase not only by the $2.4 trillion called for in the recent debt-ceiling deal but by an additional $1.5 trillion over the next decade if growth forecasts are lowered by about two percentage points.
So development of pro-growth policies that might let America return to its traditional role as the engine that could drive the world economy is one part of the solution — and not beyond our grasp. These could include fewer regulations, especially on small businesses that can provide millions of new jobs; taxes that encourage growth and discourage pollution; removal of restrictions on the development of indigenous energy resources; anything else that imaginative politicians can think of.
The second decision will be whether to mount a sensible assault on the debt mountain, or continue borrowing until the only solution is to run the presses and pay creditors with depreciated dollars. That the first of these alternatives is feasible and available to policy-makers there is no doubt. There are plenty of examples from history.
Canada eliminated a huge deficit over three years when a conservative government stopped funding programmes not essential to future growth; Germany did it after reunification imposed the burden of a clapped-out East German economy on the more prosperous West; Britain did it when Margaret Thatcher reversed "inevitable" economic decline by restructuring the economy; America did it when Ronald Reagan substituted pro-growth tax and other reforms for Jimmy Carter's policies that had lumbered the nation with stagflation and malaise.
All of which brings us to Standard & Poor's decision to downgrade American debt. It is not true that there is no use in shooting the messenger: if he brings a wrong and unfounded message that does damage to a lot of people, shooting is an appropriate recourse. S&P has surely deserved its designation as a target.
It bases its downgrading of America not on its presumed competence as a financial analyst, but on its hitherto unnoticed expertise as a political analyst. S&P based its downgrade in good part on its view "that the effectiveness, stability and predictability of American policymaking and political institutions have weakened". It purports to have special insight that the commission created as part of the recent deal will be unable to cut the deficit, that pro-growth policies will not be introduced and that Congress will not find a combination of tax increases and spending cuts that will satisfy a majority and the president. Suffice to say, it has no inside track.
Fortunately, the down-rating will in the long run prove of little consequence for US borrowing costs, as markets will decide how much America must pay to borrow money: when Japan was down-rated, its borrowing costs fell rather than rose.
Unfortunately, the down-rating adds to business and consumer reluctance to spend in the face of a slowing economy. Which is why the Federal Reserve is doing what it can to shore up confidence, while the politicians put their minds to creating the policies that can bring talk of American and western decline to a screeching halt.

LOL, you guys sound like us at our house! I think 'kosher' refers to food prepared according to rabbinical law which is, in general, very clean.
- November 12, 2011 at 6:59 PM
On one foot:
Kosher refers to many things, how an animal is slaughtered, what kind of animal it is, what foods are mixed together and many more details.
Kosher salt is simply kosher because it is used to salt and drain the blood from meat. It has nothing to do with blessings (though blessings are always good). Kosher salt is typically more course than regular salt.

I bought a box of Kosher salt once that had a recipe on the back for shrimp and grits. Much eye rolling by our Jewish friends for that one.
- November 13, 2011 at 1:14 PM
From Wikipedia:
The term "kosher salt" derives not from its being made in accordance with the guidelines for kosher foods as written in the Torah (nearly all salt is kosher, including ordinary table salt), but rather due to its use in making meats kosher. One salt manufacturer considers the term ambiguous, and distinguishes between "kosher certified salt" and "koshering salt". "Koshering salt" has the "small, flake-like form" useful in treating meat. "Kosher certified salt" is salt that has been certified as such by an appropriate religious body.[2] - November 14, 2011 at 12:35 PM

I hate to pick a fight with the sage of Omaha, but in an otherwise admirable recent New York Times op-ed that offered a new version of his idea for a minimum tax for the wealthy, Warren Buffett embraced (inadvertently, I'm guessing) spending and revenue goals for the federal government that would kill any agenda for American renewal in its cradle.
Because Buffett's voice is so sane and generally credible -- especially with businesspeople and with President Barack Obama -- his proposed targets, if influential, could prove damaging. Buffett argued, "Our government's goal should be to bring in revenues of 18.5 percent of GDP (Gross Domestic Product) and spend about 21 percent of GDP -- levels that have been attained over extended periods in the past and can clearly be reached again."As the math makes clear, this won't stem our budget deficits," he added, but it "will keep America's debt stable in relation to the country's economic output."This is true, but solvency is not an adequate national goal. What we need is an agenda for national renewal. And we need it at a time when our population is aging expensively. We can't do renewal at 21 percent of GDP.Ronald Reagan and George Bush the elder ran the federal government at 22 percent of GDP at a time when America was much younger. We're shortly going to double the number of seniors on Social Security and Medicare. Even if we take steps to slow these programs' growth (and I've supported some reforms that put me to the right of Paul Ryan on this score), and even if we sensibly trim defense and run less of a global empire than we do today, we can't operate government at a smaller share of the economy with twice as many seniors without forcing damaging cuts in the resources we devote to other nonelderly purposes.Yet it's these nonelderly purposes that make up most of what we think of as government -- from national parks to student loans to the FBI to the border patrol and more.And it's these nonelderly investments that (by definition) will build our future. Things such as infrastructure (new electric grid after Hurricane Sandy, anyone?) and research and development (where our once-leading position has eroded).We also need to invest in higher salaries to lure a new generation of teaching talent to the classroom so our schools can one day compete again with the best school systems abroad. Not to mention longer school days and years. Oh, and universal preschool.I'd also add bigger wage subsidies -- via, say, some kind of mega-earned income tax credit -- so that full-time work (and especially in-person service-sector work that can't be offshored) offers a reliable path to the middle class.All this will take federal cash. And that's before we get to the biggie no one is even talking about: shifting the burden of health costs off of corporations and onto public budgets, as virtually every other advanced nation does. Today, business spends around 4 percent of GDP running a big chunk of America's welfare state. Does any CEO think this makes sense in the 21st century? Add it all up, and we're probably talking around 28 percent of GDP as the boomers age.Can we renew an aging America for less? Only if we get our radically inefficient healthcare system to meet international benchmarks of cost-effectiveness, freeing up trillions for other purposes. I'm all for this, as I'm sure Buffett is. But I wouldn't bet our children's future on persuading America's Medical Industrial Complex to join this cause in time to make a big enough difference to the analysis above.We can balance the books at any level of spending and taxes. The question our leaders must ask is why we should prefer one level over another. That can only be answered with a more concrete policy vision to bolster upward mobility, equal opportunity and economic security in a global age. In that spirit, Warren, please have another look. Remember, it's not about solvency; it's about renewal.Matt Miller is a senior fellow at the Center for American Progress and co-host of public radio's Left, Right & Center.Have more to add? News tip?

I often don't see any exhibitions for few weeks and then happen to see a number of them in a very short space of time.
I probably mentioned more than once how much I love Tate Modern, however it does feel like a kindergarten if you visit during the weekend. That's why my favorite time to go is on Friday or Saturday evening when it is open till 22.00.
Inflatable bunny by Jeff Koons at Covent Garden Piazza
A friend of mine and I went to see Pop Life: Art in a Material World. The exhibition is loud, shiny, busy and very pornographic. Andy Warhol occupies three rooms, there is a room of Takashi Murakami's Japanese 'fairy-tale' world, Keith Harings's Pop Shop, Emin, Lucas, Hirst, Kippenberg, Uklanski and way too much of Jeff Koons – his Made in Heaven series made me wonder: where does art end and porn begin?
There are few interesting works in the exhibition but a lot of it looks just tacky and dated in a bad way.
Feeling bit overwhelmed we went to see John Baldessari: Pure Beauty which also shows at the moment. This is really worth seeing, brilliant and funny visual one-liners. Clever and thought provoking art.
John Baldessari, God Nose
We also experienced Miroslaw Balka's huge container in the Turbine Hall – you walk into blackness, your senses are confused, you're walking in space, very unsettling however it does not last long enough, your eyes get used to the darkness very fast and the effect is over.
On Saturday I went to meet another friend of mine to see Anish Kapoor at Royal Academy of Arts.
Anish Kapoor, Tall Tree and the Eye
It was spectacular, his creations are things of real beauty: pigment sculptures (you feel like blowing the powdery surface), polished mirror stainless steel works, and Svayambh which is truly amazing – a door that slowly slides back and forth on wax through three rooms of the gallery scattering wax on walls as it goes through the arches. A wonderful show indeed.
To finish the arty weekend we also managed to pop to The Wallace Collection where the latest Damien Hirst paintings are. This is one of the most beautiful museums in London with a vast collection of old masters, home to Hals' The Laughing Cavalier so it felt slightly invaded by modern art.
Hirst's blue period scull paintings looked like badly ripped off Francis Bacon. Say no more.
And that's it. I swear Hirst and Koons seem to be everywhere in London, I have had enough of them for a while.

Station Plaza Diner owner Nick Liakonis indicated he has submitted a lease proposal to Winthrop-University Hospital on Dec. 4 concerning the revamp and reconstruction of the "Welcome To Mineola" sign that sits atop his building at the
Mineola Long Island Rail Road Station. He said hospital reps asked in mid-September that he begin to draw up plans.
The location of the sign offers good exposure for the hospital if Winthrop secures the roof for rent and renovation. Winthrop is currently constructing a new $80-million, 95,000-square-foot diabetes research facility directly north of the sign, at the corner of Mineola Boulevard and Second Street, and expressed interest in the sign two months ago.

Carmela Solomon, who has two children in the Mineola School District, is sad to say that learning is not fun for her sons anymore.
"It's gotten better but it hasn't been an easy couple of months and I fear the standards," she said to about 70 concerned parents and educators at a town hall meeting on Tuesday, Dec. 3 at Mineola Middle School. Her fear: second- and third-graders will have to go to summer school.
A panel of teachers and administrators—Assistant Superintendent Patricia Burns, Middle School Principal Matthew Gaven, Jackson Avenue School Principal Cindi Gonzalez, English language arts developer Jodi Helming and mathematics coordinator Nicole Bartone — faced parents concerned about the new state standards and testing in the "common core curriculum." Superintendent Michael Nagler moderated the talk.

Students in the Karatatot Kids program at Charles Water Karate And Fitness in Williston Park get a chance to participate in "Special Time" at the end of each class. This is an opportunity for them to share something special in their lives with their teacher. It was created by Charles Water for the Karatatot class students to have a productive and fulfilling class and the children wait to the end to share their thoughts.
Karatatot is a combination of exercise and karate in a format specifically designed for children ages 4½ and up. In a fun filled and nurturing setting children learn concentration, discipline, respect, as well as an understanding of self defense at his or her own level. The results are improved strength, coordination, and flexibility and the self confidence for children.

James Stewart, the 65-year-old raw "milk man" and founder of Rawesome Foods, was assaulted near his home today by three armed men driving unmarked luxury vehicles with no license plates. Carrying firearms on their hips and dressed in gangster-style street clothes, Satanic T-shirt imagery and tattoos, they claimed to be making an "arrest" and verbally assaulted James, sprayed pepper spray in his face, then forced his head against a car and screamed, according to witnesses, "You better listen to me or you're gonna have a bad f*ckin' day!"

Butte-Silver Bow Commissioners are thinking about implementing a noise ordinance, according to Dave Palmer, commissioner for Butte-Silver Bow.
A noise ordinance will allow authorities to take control when noise complaints are called in, according to Palmer. Silver Bow County has never had an official noise ordinance in place.
Tenants of buildings in the Uptown Butte district say not having the ordinance is a drawback. Residents living in the Metals Bank building and the Sears building are frequently disrupted.
In major cities noise ordinances are based on a decibel meter. For the Uptown Butte District major events such as the Folk Festival and Evel Knievel Days would be exempt, Palmer said.

The situation is as follows. There are 3 investors:
- Me, founder & MD 75% of shares, invested 500k
- Relative 1, 15% of shares, invested 630K
- Relative 2, 10% of shares, invested 500k (as a loan to the company)
I started this company 1 year ago and both other investors joined 6 months after start up.
For the past year I have been working full time (and then some) for this start up. Other investors don't play an active part.
I don't have any customers yet. Right now I'm in the 'everything is almost done' phase. I will be ready for my first customer pitch within 2 months and I expect to have my first customer within the next 6 months.
Can I justify a (modest) salary for myself?

(03/21 - 04/19)
It's not that you're out of control, but you are behaving a little recklessly. Particularly considering the way you usually act. You're taking well-calculated risks, though, so don't feel the need to stop yourself. You've simply weighed things and decided that this would be the perfect time to go after what -- and who -- you want. And you're absolutely right.
(04/20 - 05/20)
You have a couple of delightful days coming your way, the couple of days out of every month when you are most inclined to devote absolutely every waking moment to the one you adore. Fortunately -- and this doesn't happen all that often -- this dreamy period has commenced on the eve of a weekend. So you're golden, straight through to Monday. Needless to say, this calls for a celebration. Start planning.
(05/21 - 06/21)
You have only one thing to do before you settle down for some serious recreation with your favorite playmates: Make sure all your business is taken care of. You wouldn't want to be in the middle of a wonderful evening, and then suddenly remember you left the computer on, would you? And you'll want to leave the cell phone at home, right? Well then, be sure to double check on your way out the door.
(06/22 - 07/22)
There's not much you can't do once you put your mind to it. And your mind is certainly spinning now, because you've suddenly been struck with quite the urge to get really, really close to someone. Don't even try to avoid it, because absolutely nothing else will pacify you -- you'll go after what you want and get it. Sweetly and with no complaints. That's just how you get things done.
(07/23 - 08/22)
If you know you should get into contact with a certain someone, do it sooner rather than later. Over the next few days, even the most routine conversations will be difficult to arrange. Hey, it's Friday. Why not spend it on the phone or with someone you've been wanting to get together with? Take this opportunity while you can, because it won't last forever.
(08/23 - 09/22)
If there's anything you're astrologically equipped for, it's listening. You're a born counselor, and your sympathy and wisdom know no bounds. You'll be putting those traits to good use over the weekend, and helping a lot of loved ones with them, too. Of course, this isn't a first -- you've been that person others turn to for a long time. Just don't get so good at counseling you forget about your own needs.
(09/23 - 10/22)
A dear one who's been trying to handle a tough situation alone will finally work up the courage to come to you and ask for your help. No fair scolding them for not asking sooner -- even if you really want to. Listen to them, do what you can and make it clear by your response that, next time, they can come to you as soon as the fireworks start -- not after the oohs and aahs.
(10/23 - 11/21)
A whole lot of emotions are in the air, all running rampant -- no, running amok, actually. Fortunately, you're as solid and unwavering as they come, a veritable rock. So when your dear ones come to you with that look of shock and stunned surprise on their faces, do what comes naturally -- what you always do. Listen without interrupting, comfort them and offer your couch for the night.
(11/22 - 12/21)
It's been quite the week, and there's more to come. It's all going to happen just in time to make it a warm and wonderful weekend, too. If you're attached, you'll want some quality time alone with your sweetie, no doubt. If you're not, get out there and resume the hunt. That perfect person is looking for you, too -- but not in the usual places. Think sophistication: art, music and beautiful, quiet places.
(12/22 - 01/19)
You're doing your best to navigate an emotional minefield blindfolded. No one -- absolutely no one -- seems willing to guide you. But you don't need them. Distract yourself any way you can. Try to remember that time really does heal all wounds, and that you have your own life to live. In other words, make your plans with confidence. Your loved ones will get over it. Or not. Either way, remember you can only do so much and move on.
(01/20 - 02/18)
You've had quite the time over the past few days -- the past few weeks, even. You can take a breath now, however, because the heavens have arranged a break in the action. And you're probably quite happy to hear about that. The higher-ups you've been dealing with lately are probably relieved, too, because if anyone can be stubborn, you can. Fortunately, they're fond of you.
(02/19 - 03/20)
If anyone can say what's on their mind in a succinct fashion, it's you. So now that you're feeling chatty, your friends won't quite know what to make of you. Well, don't give them a chance to think about it. Keep talking. It's about time you said what's on your mind and got some answers to those questions, too. While you're at it, break out that phone card you've been toting around.

Thomas Behrenbeck, M.D.
Dr. Thomas Behrenbeck is a native of Germany, where he received his medical education at the Westfalian Wilhelm University in Munster and became board certified in internal medicine and cardiology.
He also received a Ph.D. in biophysics and physiology at the University of Minnesota. Dr. Behrenbeck joined the Mayo Clinic staff in 1990 and is currently an associate professor at Mayo Medical School and an academic faculty member at the Westfalian Wilhelm University.

Eggs: Are they good or bad for my cholesterol?
Are chicken eggs good or bad for my cholesterol?
from Thomas Behrenbeck, M.D., Ph.D.
Chicken eggs are high in cholesterol, and a diet high in cholesterol can contribute to high blood cholesterol levels. However, how much the cholesterol in your diet can increase your blood cholesterol varies from person to person. Although eating too many eggs can increase your cholesterol, eating four egg yolks or fewer on a weekly basis hasn't been found to increase your risk of heart disease.
When deciding whether to include eggs in your diet, consider the recommended daily limits on cholesterol in your food:
- If you are healthy, it's recommended that you limit your dietary cholesterol to less than 300 milligrams (mg) a day.
- If you have cardiovascular disease, diabetes or a high low-density lipoprotein (LDL, or "bad") blood cholesterol level, you should limit your dietary cholesterol to less than 200 mg a day.
One large egg has about 186 mg of cholesterol — all of which is found in the yolk. Therefore, if you eat an egg on a given day, it's important to limit other sources of cholesterol for the rest of that day. Consider substituting servings of vegetables for servings of meat, or avoid high-fat dairy products for that day.
If you like eggs but don't want the extra cholesterol, use only the egg whites. Egg whites contain no cholesterol. You may also use cholesterol-free egg substitutes, which are made with egg whites.

Whistleblower Hotline
Drexel University established whistleblower hotlines to make it easy for anyone to report conduct that violates the law, University policy, or the University's Code of Conduct in a confidential mannor.
It is usually better if you make these reports directly to your supervisor or professor, your Department Head, your Dean, or a Vice President; but sometimes that is difficult or impossible.
To ensure the confidentiality of all reports, our hotlines are provided by EthicsPoint, an independent service provider used by many colleges and universities across the country.

Hello- yes- sorry! Didn't mean to surprise you, just a bit of a non-routine routine… checkarooni. Oh… no, not checkarooni. What in the blazes is a checkarooni? Really, Doctor.
But no! Truly, there's nothing to worry about. Just a bit of a —follow-up, yes, a follow-up, after that whole situation with the Wi-Fi. If you're wondering, you are A-OK. I think, just one more quick—…… ah, yes. No residual, soul-sucking hotspots here. Relax, and- and… keep on scrolling.
Oh, and if you happen to see a fish on your monitors… don't be alarmed. He's microchip-encapsulated, called Barnaby. I had him on the TARDIS monitors and then he just went swimming off into the Wi-Fi. If you see him, just, you know, shoo him in the general direction of my when-and-where.
(Okay, so less of a follow-up-with-the-Wi-Fi, more of a I've-lost-my-bio-fibre-optic-fish… but I digress!)
I found him! QUICK! DOCTOR, I FOUND HIM!!!

Dodgers Spring Training Recap
As Spring Training comes to a close and Opening Day approaches It's time that we take a look into the Dodgers Spring Training. Filled with some good play, bad play, Bad weather, Hot weather, Ties, magical ownerships The Dodgers wrapping up Spring Training in Arizona before heading to Anaheim to play the Angels in the Freeway Series. The Dodgers went on to have a 14-13 Record in Spring Training with a few ties. Watching the games that we're televised on TV I would have to say there were somethings that have impressed me and some that didn't impress me but all in all Spring Training have given us a taste of whats to come. Lets go ahead and Recap Spring Training in Arizona.
Who Impressed-There were a few Players this Spring that really impressed me. One who stood out the most was Andre Ethier and Dee Gordon. Ethier who is coming off Knee Surgery and a not so good 2011 Season managed to Play this spring with many questions that appears to be answered for right now. Ethier played like the Ethier that we all know and is showing the potential for a monster season. Dee Gordon exploded into the Major League scene with his amazing speed but his issue has been hitting at the Major League Level. During Spring Training Leading off Dee has been able to hit into the Gaps and Successful bunting by taking advantage of his speed. Stealing Bases as well has been a huge success this spring as well. Clayton Kershaw and Matt Kemp have also showed how they can look to improve on their Monster Season from 2011. Any worry so far of them disapointing have not shown so far. Juan Rivera, Nathian Eovaldi, and Kenley Jansen have also pitched in with stellar showings as well which give Dodger fans something to look forward too.
Who Disapointed- While some impressed there have been a few that really disapointed me this Spring Training. Juan Uribe who had a disapointing 2011 Season had a lot to prove to people. During the Spring Uribe really have not shown that things will get better for the season. Uribe who is on the Opening Day Line up will have to produce this season. Another set of players that have disapointed me have been Chad Billingsley and Ted Lily. Billingsley who has been in the All-Star game a very good pitcher has found himself imploading in the middle of games giving up runs and beat up by batters. During the Spring it seemed like we were getting a repeat of the 2011 Season as Billingsley went through his mid game breakdowns that would hurt the team. Ted Lily also had issues with pitching last season giving up multipul home runs in games which really put the Dodgers in a bad position as well. In the Spring Ted Lily had also had the same isssue as well as getting bases stolen off of him. Lily is starting the Season on the DL due to Neck stiffness issues which sidelined him for the rest of Spring training.
One Year under Mattingley's Belt- Last Season Don Mattingley did a pretty good job managing the team dispite off the field issues with the Franchise ownership. Keeping the teams focus on the field play good ball has been one heck of an effort by Mattingley. This season he will look to apply somethings that he learned from last season and apply it to become even better. The potential is really briht for Mattingley to become a very Good Manager. The players respect and play hard for him and the Fans love him.
Big heart Factor- I can't count how many times this team has been down late in games and stormed back to either take the lead or tie the game. The Dodgers have showed that other teams that games aren't over until the final out and have stormed back a few times thanks to late game heroics. This team can fight and weather they apply it to the Season. If so then they can really be something when down in games.
Storyline of Spring Training- One way or another The Dodgers Ownership situation would dominate the headlines and most of the time it wasn't positive. This Time It was Magical. April 27th would be a day where the Los Angeles Dodgers would open another new chapter in Dodger Baseball. Magic Johnson, Stan Kasten, Mark Wither and co Were approved by MLB and Former Owner Frank McCourt as they bought the Dodgers for 2.15 Billion. The new Ownership group was a sign and start of whats to be a Bright future for Dodger Baseball and the City of Los Angeles as they look to restore the luster back into one of Baseballs most historic franchises. This is something all Dodger fans can really low towards as this is the start of a brand new and Magical Era in Not only Dodgers baseball but MLB it's self.

We're cooking with gas and ready to head to the Sebel on Friday! |
In one of my roles as a member of Team Awesome (hey, if we get to give ourselves a name we're gonna make it a good one!), the planning team for our upcoming Digital Parents conference, I was entrusted with accepting delivery of the many goodies and delights that await our delegates via their swag bags. "Sure!" I said. "Send 'em my way, I'll take care of it!"
Since January, we have been receiving courier deliveries regularly. Boxes and boxes from participating companies have been safely stacked four deep, as many across and right up to the ceiling in our spare room. Lucky we completed that house extension otherwise we seriously would have run out of room about a month ago!
Two weekends ago, Steve and the LGBB kindly helped me begin unpacking these boxes. We opened them excitedly and found inside……. more boxes! A real life "nested dolls" bit o' fun. Fun, fun, fun. Cardboard Explosion barely begins to cover it for a description of what then ensued.
This was our couch, barely an hour in…. |
By Sunday night (of the Grand Prix weekend), I was working hard at not having a panic attack complete with hyperventilating episode. I never realised I was such an orderly beast. Neat freak, some might call it. WHO KNEW??
The two hundred swag bags having been mostly finished this past week, I was then horrified when two things happened in the house. As if they were just waiting for the bags to be made vulnerable. And here *deep breath in* are my two confessions:
1. Someone may get an extra surprise in their swag bag. A mouse!
A dirty great not-so-stealthy mouse came sauntering through our bedroom at 3am.
I awoke with that hair-raising sense that something hairy and scary was in the room – something beyond my dearly betrothed, I mean, who lay blissfully unaware and asleep beside me – and my first thought was to turn the light on, at which point said rodent alighted from my bedside table (oh yeah…. it was there *SHUDDER*), and go and get the cat.
I went and got the cat – our brave hunter, who is usually so good with bringing kill back to the doorstep whenever she pleases – but apparently she enjoys her sleep more than a good old pat and serving of mouse on a platter. I had to shut the door to the bedroom to make her stay in, encouraging her to sniff around the corners of the room where I'd seen the mouse do its best Hamburglar-tip-toeing impression back from whence it came. She looked at me, bemused, and gave a maow that wasn't so much a meow as it was a yawn. Fine. Perfect.
I took the useless lump back to her bed.
So it was left to me to sit up in bed with the light on, unable to get back to sleep. And all I could think was, "Great. What if it climbs into a swag bag down the hallway and decides not to come out and we pack him up and take him in to the Sebel? Sure, it'd make for someone's awesome vlog fodder but I don't want to be known as The Mouse House Blogger. The internet is forever. Noooo! Arooooooo!" (that was an impression of me howling to my ceiling that "the bloody cat" didn't do her job keeping mice away and she's obviously been fooling us these past two years…. She is officially the feline equivalent of the woman who used to work in my old workplace who seemed to be doing such a good job…. Until she resigned and left and they found a pile, months' worth, of important paperwork in her bottom drawer that she'd never actioned but should have and it left the company in a bit of a quandry – so that's it, then: our entire house is effectively Tabitha's bottom drawer.)
2. Someone may get an extra, extra surprise in their swag bag. A slimey dog ball!
I have had the swag bags under lock and key the past few days, diligently fending off mice and other bits of bother. Except, this one time, I came back from the kitchen with a cuppa to find Jazz had discovered them. She's been carrying her ball around in her mouth permanently, she even sleeps with the ruddy thing in her mouth – it's like her dummy – and she was trying to sniff in one. When I saw her she had the ball in her mouth. When I told her off for gingerly quality inspecting the bags with her nose, she didn't have the ball any more.
She has three "inside balls". To date, only one has surfaced. Two are missing. I hope not in the swag bags.
Dear God, please don't let any of my fellow Digital Parents blogging friends find an inside ball dropped inside their swag bag. And…. just a note from Jazz: if they do, could they kindly return it post haste.
*breathing out* It feels good to confess.
On Friday night, the kind and energetic Naomi (of Under The Yardarm fame) brought her own swag – in a brown paper bag – and knuckled down to help us add in the final few deliveries.
They are now all packed into these neat stackable plastic crates from Eco Move (awesome initiative, so much better than cardboard boxes! NO MORE CARDBOARD BOXES! EVER! I never want to see another one as long as I live) where neither mouse nor dog nose can potentially meddle with them.
The LGBB has been an enthusiastic helper this past month, it should be noted. She worked so hard and fast it was almost difficult to keep up with her! She was promoted from simply opening product boxes to make them ready, to carrying filled bags into the waiting plastic transport boxes on Friday night.
Last night, she made posters for the boxes containing the door prizes:
Bloggers will come in droves! Winner will be so happy s/he'll…. go to a skate park…. |
Note: If you win the door prize – any of them – I'll be your new best friend? Ohhhhh they are good. Let's just say, a courier had to step inside the house to drop off a delivery on Friday morning – the day after the Lindt boxes arrived – and he said he could smell the chocolate in the house.
NOW do you feel my pain?!?
Once a photobomber, always a photobomber… As Laney put it, "so she's THAT kind of chocolate Lab??" This is comedy Gold, people! |
See you Friday! Unless you're not coming and then I guess…. I won't.
As you were *anti-climactic cough*
Oh Lord. I feel your pain!!! When we moved here, the mice could have practically lifted the house and rotated it there were that many. Cat helped some. But they're onto her. She hunts away.
Now I'm looking forward to Friday even more! Though I suspect my dog Oliver is hoping I'll find the slimy surprise as opposed to the hairy surprise. The first night I moved into my old apartment in NYC, a (great, hairy, dirty) mouse ran across the floor in front of me. I said, "Oliver, get it!" And my faithful hound (ok, cavoodle), the one who chases birds, squirrels and autumn leaves with the heart of a lion, leaped up onto the couch next to me and tucked his paws underneath him, eyeballing said mouse in terror. Useless.
Not going so I won't see you *sad face*. But HOLY GUACAMOLE I have never seen that many boxes in my life!! You're a freaking legend! (And so I Naomi…brown paper bag *taps nose*)
PS LOVE LGBB's work!!

As you can see, that is a clip of Battlefield 3. We are making a movie but... some soldiers have a blue icons above their heads. So, I am trying to remove those icons... but I can't. I searched all kinds of videos on Youtube but no one is certainly good.
This is all... I need help with it, I don't know if this is easy to do but I am begineer with this programs (I have AE CS4)
