Believe it or not, Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) was around long before the iPad appeared. When I was a consultant at Accenture eight years ago, we would bring our own devices into the client's workplace to deliver projects for them. Only in the strictest, most regulated clients (like defense and banks) would we be forced to use their devices. And as anyone who has worked for Accenture knows, they don't lock down laptops since it's impossible for them to address all the software and…

I've called cloud-only vendors' bluff that everything can be managed in the cloud. The other option? Legacy vendors who are inept to meet the needs of securely sharing content outside firewall constraints.
Enter hybrid enterprise content management. Hybrid ECM is the only way today's enterprise can address all their content management needs.
The four main solutions customers are building using hybrid ECM tools includes:

There was a lot of hype in 2012 from companies in the space talking about content moving to the cloud. There's no doubt that the cloud is disrupting the way enterprise software will be delivered in 2013, but the reality is still a long way off.
While enterprises are investing in cloud services, most of these services only store a fraction of the content enterprises hold today with the majority of their content still being stored behind the firewall. In some cases this is due to legacy…

Front drive shaft problem
My transfer case broke in half driving down the highway and when the mechanics replaced it they told me that it was my front drive shaft so its been out for about a month. i was wondering how much it should cost to get it fixed or should i just buy a new one. i'm a little short of cash so i need to go the cheapest rout. i have a 4 in lift, do i need it lengthened or shortened? i just want my jeep to be a jeep again haha thanks.
So what did they say was wrong witht he Front DS??? did the DS actually break, was it a U-joint, please explain. If just U-joints, then thats easy and cheap.
Depends on which Jeep model you have... On my 03 Rubi I have a 4" lift and was running the stock front DS, just fine. You should be able to get stock one from the dealer for about $275 to $325 and after market ones run about the same as well, $300 to $375. Chris |
It was the ujoints at the end that connects to the tcase I got it replaced for 130 bucks so I was happy with that, but as soon as I got that on for some reason my radiator fluid wanted to start leaking and I thought it was the bottom hose so I replaced it and it's still dripping so I'm stuck
ah ?
It was the water pump seal leaking

I am assuming that everyone's family loves pizza as much as my family does. It is the one thing my kids are always asking for! I had quite a bit of leftover spinach-ricotta mixture from last weeks Portobello Roll-ups, since I halved the recipe, so I decided that calzones were in our future. Everything mini is easier for kids, so I made 6 mini calzones and 2 large ones. I used 24 oz. of pizza dough to get that many. So if you just use a lb of dough, you might have some leftover filling ingredients.
I cooked up a little bit of turkey sausage, added a bell pepper and onion, and of course Italian seasoning. I also added turkey pepperoni and we dipped ours in pizza sauce. On the side I roasted some veggies, tossed in Italian seasoning again. I have one of those grinders, so I never measure my Italian seasoning, I just churn it on, until it looks like enough. You could really sub any veggies here, this is just what I had. Enjoy- we sure did!

Mini Calzones and Italian Roasted Green Beans & Yellow Squash
Mini Calzones by Mary Ann
1 lb. pizza dough (your favorite recipe or refrigerated pizza dough)
pizza sauce (your favorite or try out mine-here, also a great dough recipe)
2 links sweet Italian turkey sausage, casings removed (about 8-9 oz)
1 orange (or green) bell pepper, chopped
1/2 onion, chopped
turkey pepperoni
1 15-oz container skim milk ricotta cheese
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 10-oz pkg. frozen spinach, thawed and drained
Italian seasoning
shredded cheese
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
In an electric skillet, season the sausage, bell pepper, and onion, with Italian seasoning, and saute until sausage is cooked through and veggies are tender. Set aside.
Combine the ricotta cheese, egg,thawed spinach, and season with Italian seasoning. Set aside.
Roll out your pizza dough and cut it into squares. (I made 6)
Spread about 1 Tbls of pizza sauce on one half of your dough square, leaving room around the edges. Spread 1 Tbls or so of the ricotta cheese mixture on top of the pizza sauce. Place 1 piece of turkey pepperoni on top of the ricotta mixture. Next pile some of the sausage, pepper, onion, mixture on top of the pepperoni. Sprinkle with cheese and close the calzone by bringing one half of the dough, up and over, and sealing the sides, by crimping the dough together.
Repeat with remaining dough and filling ingredients.
You can also make this into larger calzones, just cut the dough into larger pieces and put more of the fillings inside. Also bake time would increase. Little ones are easier for the kids.
Place the calzones on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake for 13-16 minutes, until lightly browned on top. Serve with warmed pizza sauce, for dipping, if desired.
Italian Roasted Green Beans and Yellow Squash by Mary Ann
1 lb. fresh green beans, washed and trimmed
1 medium yellow squash, cut in quarters and thinly sliced
Italian seasoning
1 Tbls olive oil
cooking spray
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray the sheet with cooking spray. Combine green beans and squash on the foil and season liberally with Italian Seasoning. Drizzle with 1 Tbls of olive oil and mix with your hands. Roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes, until veggies are tender.

the caramel horrible taste. didn't thicken well.
These are good...
by Kellie on 3/22/2015 -
Had this last night for dessert, the caramel flavored one and it was great. Perfect for after workout recovery meal or a light evening snack. I will definitely reorder the puddings! I am going to buy a kids ice cream shaker to make it soft serve (can be bought around the spring at Walmart). Yum
by roberta on 1/6/2015 -
This is not good - it is sublime, blissful wonderfulness. I love toffee, but my expectations were not all that high due to the calorie count being so low. I mixed it up, then put it in the fridge as I grabbed my shower. When I took it out twenty minutes later I was surprised by the firm texture. This is not just a pudding - it is like a heavenly mousse, and I would have been delighted had it been served as a nondiet dessert in a good restaurant I would never have imagined it was just 90 calories. Five stars is not enough for such toffee perfection. I am in love!
What took me so long to try this flavor?
by Barb on 8/22/2014 -
I have been buying all the chocolate pudding flavors because I know I like them, and have been very hesitant to try any of the others. I am so glad I finally tried this one - it is excellent! Tastes very "dulce de leche" and I have to admit that my boyfriend steals these from the frig after I make a couple and put them there. Occasionally we use the light spray whipped cream - just a little! - on it to make it extra good.
by ktx on 1/28/2014 -
This caramel is my favorite pudding flavor because it tastes like caramel and nothing else. And the consistency is smooth too. I made it up and let it sit in the fridge for 4-5 hours and had it as my last meal of the day. Perfect dessert!

RFID Assisted Vehicle Positioning in VANETs
With technological advancement, recent VANET applications such as safe driving and emergency rescue often demand high position accuracy. Unfortunately, however, conventional localization systems, e.g., GPS, hardly meet new accuracy requirements. To overcome this limitation, this paper proposes an RFID-assisted localization system. The proposed system employs the DGPS concept to improve GPS accuracy. A vehicle obtains two different position data: GPS coordinate from own GPS receiver and accurate physical position via RFID communication. Then, it computes GPS error and shares it with neighbors to help those correct inaccurate GPS coordinates.

Muslims in Mannaar expose systemic inability of SL State in delivering justice to victims
Muslims in Mannaar expose systemic inability of SL State in delivering justice to victims
Emergency Regulations extended[TamilNet, Tuesday, 21 March 2006, 13:27 GMT]Sri Lanka parliament extended the state of emergency Tuesday, parliamentary sources in Colombo said. First imposed after the assassination of its foreign minister six months ago, Emergency Regulations have been extended every month, but the Sri Lanka Government said violence has fallen sharply since talks with Liberation Tigers in February. Introduced after Foreign Minister Lakshman Kadirgamar was assasinated last year, the state of emergency gives the police and army wide powers. The Emergency Regulations was extended first for the November presidential election and then again every month as violence rose. More than two hundred people died in less than two months in December and January. "Last month, the killings and attempted killings came down," SL Prime Minister Rantasiri Wickremanayake told parliament. "This is a good trend. We want it to continue and so we need to extend the state of emergency," he said. With most parliamentarians away from Colombo campaigning ahead of March 30 local elections, Tuesday's extension was passed without voting. The Tamil National Alliance (TNA) parliamentarians abstained. Wickremanayake said there had only been 10 killings and nine attempted killings since the two sides met last month in Switzerland for their first high level talks since 2003- a significant improvement compared to the early 2006. The Sri Lanka Army (SLA) says not a single soldier has been wounded during last month. |

May 26, 2014 – Ottawa – Transport Canada
The Honourable Lisa Raitt, Minister of Transport, today announced an important change that will benefit travellers flying with Canadian air operators, as well as the aviation industry. Passengers will soon be able to use portable electronic devices such as cameras, electronic games, tablets and computers during all phases of flight. This includes while an aircraft takes off, climbs, descends and lands, provided the device is in non-transmitting, or flight mode, and that their airline has met certain safety conditions outlined by Transport Canada.
Previously, passengers could not use their devices at their leisure during take off and landing. This change, which is made possible through an exemption to the Canadian Aviation Regulations, means that passengers will soon be able to work or play whenever they please on flights in Canada. It strikes the appropriate balance between safety and passenger comfort that Transport Canada and airlines always strive to achieve. The use of electronic devices on any flight will be at the discretion of the air operators, who must demonstrate that their aircraft are not affected by the use of the devices and that during critical phases of flight and during emergencies, all passengers are aware of and able to follow crew instructions.
Quick Facts
- Canada has an aviation safety record that remains one of the best in the world.
- Passengers will soon be in a position to use portable electronic devices such as cameras, electronic games, tablets and computers during all phases of flights, provided their airline has met certain safety conditions.
- As always, passengers who use transmitting portable electronic devices such as tablets, smartphones or e-readers, will need to ensure they are in a non-transmitting or flight mode before using them on an aircraft.
"This is great news for air passengers, and an exciting day for the Canadian aviation industry. By collaborating with our aviation partners, we are able to offer airlines the tools they need to safely enable passengers to use portable electronic devices on airplanes, while still maintaining the highest standards of aviation safety."

Minister of Transport

From: Sonic & Knuckles <celtic@al...> - 2002-05-29 06:21:46
Hello, I am having some problems with "Jython" and I am hoping that you can help= me to solve them. I have written a small Jython Applet using your demonstration code as the basis for the code and I have run into a problem. The code I used is pre= tty straight forward: from java import awt, applet class MyApp(applet.Applet): y=3D10 def paint(self, g): g.setColor(awt.Color.red) g.fillRect(5,5,210,80) g.setFont(awt.Font('Arial', 0, 15)) g.setColor(awt.Color.black) g.drawString('G Day', 10, 20) The code compiled with no problem using the line: jythonc --deep -- core --jar demo1.jar MyApp.py I then entered the HTML code following in my webpage <applet code=3D"MyApp" archive=3D"demo1.jar" width=3D"100" height=3D"100"> </applet> When I run the code nothing happens, all that I receive is an empty grey = box on the screen, it has no text in the box. Being somewhat familiar with J= ava Applets I immediately knew something was up. So I looked for the status bar. The message in the status bar is as follows: "MyApp class can't be instantiated", I have never seen this error message before. After that happened I hit the refresh button by accident, and then the text 'G Day' appeared in the Applet. After that I tried it with the example code in t= he /demo/example directory on the HelloApplet example and the same thing occurred, it only displayed after hitting the Refresh button. It is the only example that worked. So my question is this, what am I doing wrong? Why is the text not being displayed until after I hit the refresh button on the browser. I know I have overlooked something simple but I don't know what it is. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thankyou and regards, Sl=E1inte (Irish for cheers). ----------------------------------------------- Vaughan Egan --- celtic@... ----------------------------------------------- |

Leicester City have made "serious enquiries" about signing Robert Pires, according to the former World Cup-winning winger. The 36-year-old is a free agent after being released by Spanish side Villarreal and is reported as saying he is keen to return to England having played for Arsenal between 2000 and 2006.
Pires said: "There's a few big English teams chasing me. I'm told Leicester and Birmingham have made serious enquires. I still think I can play in the Premier League but the challenge of getting a team like Leicester promoted is very appealing.
"If the right kind of club expresses an interest, I have no problem going over and doing a pre-season so they can have a closer look at me."

PA TV honors Sbarro pizza shop terrorists
by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik
Sept. 4, 2011
PA TV host sends "best wishes"
to "our glorious" prisoner
who led suicide bomber
to attack that killed 15, including 7 children
by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik
Palestinian Authority TV has chosen to honor two more terrorists serving multiple life sentences for murder in its continuous glorification of Palestinian prisoners in Israel.
Terrorist Ahlam Tamimi led a suicide bomber to the Sbarro pizza shop in Jerusalem in August 2001. 15 people were murdered in the attack, 7 of them children. Muhammad Wael Daghlas planned the attack and sent the suicide bomber, and is currently serving 15 life sentences.
PA TV program
In a Fighter's Home
decided to honor Daghlas by visiting the home of his family. During the visit, the PA TV host decided to send special greetings and praise to Ahlam Tamimi as well:
"We, [at] the program
In a Fighter's Home
, send best wishes of loyalty to Ahlam Tamimi. We wish her freedom - she and [the rest of] our glorious female prisoners. Special wishes to you, Ahlam, from the program
In a Fighter's Home
and from the program team, from the home of the heroic fighter prisoner, Muhammad [Wael Daghlas]. You both belong to the same group."
In a Fighter's Home
, PA TV (Fatah), Aug. 10, 2011]
Click to view
PA TV is under the control of Chairman Mahmoud Abbas.
This is not the first time PA TV has glorified terrorist Tamimi. The day before the murder of five members of one family in the Israeli town Itamar, PA TV visited Tamimi's home and interviewed her relatives. The camera focused on a certificate awarded by Fatah to the terrorist, calling her "
the heroic prisoner
Another PA TV program,
For You
, directed at Palestinian prisoners in Israeli prisons, also recently found Tamimi worthy of praise. The program host chose to bring the following greeting to Tamimi and other female prisoners, several of whom drove suicide bombers to their targets:
PA TV host: "[To] all the female prisoners: Qahira Al-Sa'adi;, Amna Muna, Irena Sarahneh, Sanabel Bureik, Ahlam Tamimi, Abir Odeh, Amal Jum'a, all the female prisoners, without a doubt, I love you, happy holidays [Eid Al-Fitr]."
[PA TV (Fatah), Aug. 30, 2011]
Earlier this year,
Prime Minister Fayyad chose to praise some of the same terrorists
The terrorists mentioned and "loved" by the PA TV host are guilty of the following:
Qahira Al-Sa'adi
- drove a suicide bomber to an attack in Jerusalem in 2002, in which 3 were killed.
Amna Muna
- lured Israeli teen Ofir Rahum and was involved in his kidnapping and murder on Jan. 17, 2001.
Irena Sarahneh
- drove a suicide bomber to an attack in the Israeli city Rishon LeZion in 2002, in which 2 were killed and dozens injured.
Sanabel Bureik
- poured acid on a soldier's face at Hawara Checkpoint.
Ahlam Tamimi
led the suicide terrorist to the Sbarro pizza restaurant in August, 2001. 15 people were murdered in the attack, 7 of them children. She is serving 16 life sentences
Abir Odeh
- was arrested on 15/12/03. She agreed to commit a suicide attack.
Amal Jum'a
- was arrested the day before she planned to carry out a suicide attack.

There's no place like the Internet.
An old one-line movie blurb has gone viral this week thanks to mentions all over the world wide web. In 1998, for a Wizard of Oz listing on TCM, writer Rick Polito wrote, "Transported to a surreal landscape, a young girl kills the first person she meets and then teams up with three strangers to kill again."
This morning, Polito told JimRomensko.com, "That line is going to follow me to the grave. It was just on Leno, it was a clue in a crossword puzzle, it showed up in Playboy, and people use it as their email sigs."
It's easy to see why the terrifying silly line caught on. It got us at PopWatch thinking about how we could cryptically describe some other popular movies in one sentence:
– Moody teen encourages boyfriend to kill her. (Twilight)
– Talking lion befriends a warthog and avenges father's death. (Lion King)
– Boy left to fend off robbers after parents abandon him. (Home Alone)
– Orphaned boy hangs around with convicted mass murderer while a rat plots his death (Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban)
-In a dystopian future society, young girl forced to battle other children to the death on reality television…Actually, this one is creepy all on its own. (Hunger Games)
Your turn.

Philosophy of business
The philosophy of business considers the fundamental principles that underlie the formation and operation of a business enterprise; the nature and purpose of a business, and the moral obligations that pertain to it. The subject is important to business and management, and is closely related to business ethics and political economy. It is influenced significantly by philosophy, ethics, and economic theory.
The "philosophy of business" is different from "business philosophy". Business philosophy denotes a way of doing business or a business outlook, instead of the more academic philosophical meaning of philosophy of business".

There is no mystery as to why the courtship of Elizabeth Barrett and Robert Browning has always attracted so much attention. It is, after all, one of the great love stories, full of drama and emotion and with that thrilling exit from Wimpole Street as the climax - what more could anyone want? But the marriage has been another matter. Those 15 years have, by comparison, been passed over quickly. Marriage is staid, marriage is dull, marriage - even in the case of the romantic Brownings - is surely too boring to record. In fact, it is not. The marriage is every bit as fascinating, if not as obviously exciting, as the courtship.
Why, then, you are bound to ask, has it not become as well known? The answer lies in one word: sources. The courtship has the advantage of incomparable primary source material, those magnificent letters Robert and Elizabeth wrote to each other, which were later published by their son in 1899 and have ever since been plundered greedily by scholars and writers. The whole story is in those letters with every line open to several interpretations. Never has so much emotion and intelligence been compressed into so short a time span and the effect is exhilarating. But the marriage lacks that kind of charting. The Brownings, being together, naturally did not write to each other. Robert hardly wrote letters at all, or at least not in comparison with Elizabeth, who spread herself over a large number of correspondents. Not all her letters are published and persistence is needed to collect even those which are available. This in itself has effectively controlled the amount written about this period.
Julia Markus, however, has not been discouraged. She has spent 20 years in the Brownings' "field" and has herself published a fine modern edition of Casa Guidi Windows (Elizabeth's long poem about the Italian struggle for liberty). She has gathered together the scattered sources for the marriage years with enthusiasm and scrutinised them diligently. Her interest is not in the day-to-day life of the Brownings - it is curious, but no real impression of what this was like emerges - but in the broader question of how the marriage functioned at different times. In the early years, she chooses to focus on the continuing influence of Mr Barrett. Elizabeth might have seemed, by marrying Robert, to be showing that she loved him more than her father. Nevertheless, her feeling for this difficult parent was still strong, and could have wrecked her marriage, if she had let it, and if Robert had not been so supportive. Appreciating this, Julia Markus takes the basic problem about Mr Barrett: why did he not wish any of his children to marry?
As far as his daughters were concerned, it has always been possible to make a stab at justifying Mr Barrett's objections, since none of the suitors were exactly suitable, especially Robert Browning. But what about his sons? Why did he not want them to marry and continue the family line? Julia Markus's theory, which she drops like a bomb into the middle of an otherwise straightforward account of the Brownings' early married years, is that he was afraid he would have a black grandchild. She cites Elizabeth as declaring she believed she had slave blood in her (though the quotation on which she bases this seems open to other interpretation) and invites incredulity, not to say ridicule, by saying that there was "nothing" in Elizabeth's appearance "to mitigate her own belief in her African blood". It is certainly an interesting tangent to go off at, and the discussion of the Barretts' West Indian background, which it entails, is full of well-researched detail, though to use an analysis of the poem, "The Runaway Slave" to boost this theory seems carrying speculation too far.
There are several other speculative areas in the book which, though lively in themselves, result in a strange lack of balance. There is a jumpy feeling to the shape and style which makes for an uneasy read. In order to float, and try to prove, her theories, Markus has to make space for them by compressing a great deal of the rest of her material. She seems to collapse exhausted after long, discursive passages of the above kind, so much so that she is regularly reduced to one-word exclamations and three-word verbless sentences. It is a relief when she has passed the point of the middle years and comes at last to what she really has to offer. Thereafter, she manages a smooth narrative.
The prize she has to give us is access to 115 unpublished letters from Elizabeth to her sister Arabel, hitherto in family hands. Half of these are already in the Berg Collection, New York Public Library, but it has always been supposed that the other half contained far more revealing information. A knowledge of Arabel's character - she was very religious and devoted herself to charity work - did suggest that there would be no startling intimacies in Elizabeth's letters to her (she would not wish to shock the spinster Arabel) but, even so, the two were close enough to exchange real confidences. Such excitement, then, to have these letters at last.
And they do genuinely add to what was already known of the one real difference of opinion between the Brownings, even if it is only a matter of degree. Robert was always furious at his wife's belief in spiritualism and did everything possible to prove she was being hoodwinked. In these new letters, the full extent of the battle between them is made clear and so is the part played by Sophie Eckley, an American woman deeply involved in spiritualism under whose spell Elizabeth fell for a while. Julia Markus goes so far as to allege that "a woman came between the Brownings", which has suggestive connotations she afterwards, luckily, dispels. She sees the pair overcoming this unpleasantness, as indeed they did, and remaining true to each other until the very end. I was relieved at this verdict.
In fact, I was relieved by the whole book, written as it is with real passion and dedication. It may seem an odd thing to confess, especially at the end of a review, but I think it is not generally realised how those who have written on a particular subject approach the writings of others on the same topic with a mixture of dread and eagerness. Biographers, especially, remain forever possessive, hardly able to bear the possibility of anyone else knowing more than they do. Yet, at the same time, through knowing so much and being so familiar with the material, they make dangerous reviewers, judging everything by the most exacting standards.
Coming to this book as someone who has written a biography of Elizabeth, I looked for accuracy (and found it) and empathy (which was lacking) but also for something new, something to justify another book (though I had no right whatsoever to ask for such justification). Julia Markus gave me that, if not enough of it - much more use will surely be made of these new letters - and, in addition, she has helped to bring the Brownings' marriage as well as their courtship to greater attention.

Manny Machado's Lack of Stolen Bases Cost Him a Top-3 AL MVP Finish in 2016
Major League Baseball is full of young superstars, and Baltimore Orioles third baseman Manny Machado deserves to be included in such an elite group. After all, he just earned his second consecutive top-five finish in the American League MVP race.
Finishing fifth behind Mike Trout, Mookie Betts, Jose Altuve and Josh Donaldsonis nothing to be ashamed of, but was there a way he could've further distinguished himself to become a finalist?
The answer to that question is yes.
Looking at Machado's 2015 and 2016 statistics, it appears he experienced nearly identical performances, except for one glaring difference.
Ichiro Suzuki Maybe Older, But He Is a Perfect 4th OF/PH
Hunter Stokes (Chief Writer): Follow @stokes_hunter21
Follow The MLB Reports On Twitter Follow @mlbreports
Okay so Ichiro Suzuki doesn't possess as much speed as he once did, or even hit .320 like he routinely did for the Mariners. Plus yes, there is virtually no power…however he hit .284 last season, and for a 4th OF or Pinch Hitter in the Senior Circuit, that would be much likened.
I was sitting there last month debating on whether the Mariners should give him a call for a return to Seattle, considering they tried signing Franklin Gutierrez (hurt all of 2014, which was the biggest waste of a $MIL ever by M's mgmt – considering the guy already burned the squad for 120 games missed in 2013) and employed friggin Endy Chavez for much of the 2014 year.
I am giving Jack Z. and the Mariners some chops for picking up Justin Ruggiano and Seth Smith instead in the last 30 days, but the point was, Ichiro may not have wanted to return to the PAC NW anyway even though he could have helped that club as they were constructed then.
Have you seen some of the 4th OF and PH that still have jobs in the Majors? Heck yeah… give me a guy who can put the bat on the ball still.
Suzuki is a great contact hitter even at his age, and he will likely see some AB roaming the outfield for the Marlins this year. I love Giancarlo Stanton, but it is not like he ever plays 162 games straight on the diamond. Read the rest of this entry

Ken Griffey Jr. is without a doubt the greatest player in the history of the Seattle Mariners. From his breathtaking defense in center field, to the 417 home runs he hit with the franchise,
"The Kid" truly was a five-tool talent and one of the most electrifying players in the game. While his career might not have ended perfectly, Mariners fans will never forget what he did to help bring playoff baseball to Seattle.
In honor of Griffey being just the seventh player inducted into the Mariners Hall of Fame on Saturday, here's a look back at Griffey's thirteen seasons in Seattle.

The Red Sox in the 2011 season were managed by the Luckless Losing manager Bobby Valentine and made them lose with a HORRID and CRAPPY Season Record of 69-93 putting them in last (5th) place in the AL East. They, are guessed to be going on another losing streak and get 5th place in the AL East again.

Detroit Tigers Roster in 2013: State Of The Union
Like us on Facebook here
Thursday, February. 21/2013
By Ryan Dana (MLB Reports Writer): Follow @ryandana1
I would never say that a team is a lock to win their division, but I will say that the Detroit Tigers shouldn't make any vacation plans for October of 2013. They've won the AL Central Division for the past 2 years, and added an AL Pennant in 2012. The Detroit Tigers franchise is one rich in history winning 4 World Series titles and having legends such as Ty Cobb, Hank Greenberg, Al Kaline, and Charlie Gehringer passing through the "D" just to name a few.
This proud franchise did suffer a lull in success somewhat recently as they had a losing record every season from 1994-2005. This included a dismal 43-119 record in '03. The Tigers came back from the abyss and turned their team back into a winning ball club since 2006. This was Jim Leyland's 1st season managing the Tigers, and all he did was lead the team to 95 wins (a 24 win increase from the prior season) and a World Series appearance.
In 2011, the Tigers lost in the ALCS, and in 2012 they lost in the World Series, so could they improve upon the previous seasons ending once again and win the 2013 World Series? Well, their roster is certainly improved from last year, but it's all about keeping up with the "Jones" in the MLB nowadays. Every team with money is trying to make a serious World Series run this year. While the Tigers are in the weakest division in the AL, if and when they reach the playoffs, it will be a gruesome battle to endure.
The Tigers have all the makings of a World Series contender. They have Superstars in their lineup like Miguel Cabrera and Prince Fielder. They have a true Ace leading their deep, seemingly all in and around their prime, starting rotation in Justin Verlander. They also have good depth on their 25 man roster, and even more in their Minor League system. I'll start with their rotation. Here's what it will most likely look like…
2013 Detroit Tigers Starting Rotation: Justin Verlander, Doug Fister, Anibal Sanchez, Max Scherzer, Rick Porcello

The New York Yankees Hitting Roster In 2013: State Of The Union Part 1
Like us on Facebook here
Follow @mlbreportsWednesday, February.13, 2013
Chuck Booth (Yankees Correspondent/Website Owner): Follow @chuckbooth3024
The Yankees had a precarious winter after failing miserably in the ALCS, (AKA the last time the country saw them play on Television) – when the team was decimated by the Detroit Tigers in a sweep. So what has happened since? A lot of status quo: Re-signing Mariano Rivera, Andy Pettitte, Ichiro Suzuki and Hiroki Kuroda, while saying good-bye to Raul Ibanez (SEA), Andruw Jones (FA), Nick Swisher (CLE), Eric Chavez (ARI), Russell Martin (PIT), Derek Lowe (FA), Steve Pearce (BAL), Casey McGehee (FA), Freddy Garcia (FA) and Rafael Soriano (WSH). All they really added back was former arch-nemesis Kevin Youkilis (CWS) and Travis Hafner (CLE). The team is sitting around 215 Million Dollars at Payroll right now, yet they have are heading into the 2013 campaign with Catchers that are of limited experience.
For the first time in years, the club will need to see some internal progress from their farm system to help the big club. With A-ROD out with his hip injury, plus the Miami fiasco, can you really count on the prima-donna to play at all this season? Derek Jeter is coming off a brutal ankle injury that occurred in the aforementioned Post Season Series vs the Tigers . The club is also hoping that 'MO' Rivera can find it within himself to make it through another year as a 43 Year Old. Just like The ALL-Time Saves Leader, this team is aging fast. Robinson Cano and Curtis Granderson are Free Agents after 2013 is over. Brian Cashman is also going to take advantage of the reset option f the Luxury Tax loophole in 2014.
This means that when the Luxury Tax goes from 178 Million to 189 Million next year, that the club can stop paying its 40% annual penalty if they can get under for just one season. The Yankees will be sure to blow up the Payroll from 2015 and beyond that, it is just to not start the new luxury lax at the maximum penalty. Had the Luxury Tax not moved from its current spot, the Yankees would always pay the 40% penalty (even if they decided to skip one year).

Projected Boston Red Sox Lineup For 2013: State Of The Union Part 1 – The Hitters
Like us on Facebook here
Sunday, January.06, 2013
By Saul Wisnia, Red Sox Correspondent (Read his blog 'Fenway Reflections' here): Follow @SaulWizz
It has become trendy in recent weeks for experts to declare the Red Sox not only big players during the recent flurry of off-season transactions, but also big winners.
This may be wishful thinking, however, since it's hard to imagine another season as dreadful as the 69-93 last-place debacle of 2012. It's true Boston picked up strong character guys in Shane Victorino and Jonny Gomes, along with a few streaky power-hitter types in Stephen Drew and Mike Napoli. But the revamped Boston lineup still has plenty of uncertainties with spring training a little over a month away.
Let's take a look around the diamond as things currently stand (projected starters in bold):
At First Base – the newcomer Napoli, who can also catch, will likely get the nod provided Boston and his agent come to terms over his contract. Health may be an issue; while Napoli hit HRs last year and 30 in 2011, he's played more than 114 games just once in seven MLB seasons (140 in 2010). Current backup Mauro Gomez was the International League MVP at Pawtucket last summer, but in 102 at-bats with Boston posted only 2 HRs. Mark Hamilton has shown bursts of power in the minors but has hit .197 in two call-ups with St. Louis.
Mike Napoli Highlights from 2012:
The Best DH of All-Time
Like us on Facebook here
Saturday, January 5th, 2013
Ryan Dana (MLB Reports Intern): Follow @ryandana1
In my previous article examining the decline of the DH position in the AL, I briefly touched on a few great DH's. Now I will exert my focus on examining who the best DH of all time was. While the DH position may be in a decline, it has experienced good times. To be truly great at one of the hardest things to do in sports, (hit a baseball) is quite an accomplishment whether you play in the field or not. The Top 4 DH's off all time have to be Harold Baines, Edgar Martinez, Frank Thomas, and David Ortiz. (The ordering just goes from 1st to enter the MLB to last, not who was the best. I will order them in that way later in the article.)
Harold Baines was somewhat of a pioneer of the DH position, as he was one of the early greats. His 22 Year Career started in 1980 with the Chicago White Sox, and ended for the same team in 2001, although he had stints with the Rangers, Athletics, Orioles, and Indians in between. Baines was a regular Outfielder for the White Sox until the '86 season – where knee problems all but ended his fielding career. With Baines well-rounded, Left-hHanded stroke at the plate, he etched out a place in baseball history that will leave him remembered by many.

Vargas/Morales Trade Fills Needs For Both Teams
Like us on Facebook here
Follow @mlbreportsFriday, January.04, 2013
Nicholas Rossoletti (MLB Trade Correspondent): Follow @NRoss56
It is rare in baseball that division rivals complete trades. Most of the time when it does happen, it is a lower end deal involving pieces that neither team is particularly worried will come back to haunt them. This is what makes the Jason Vargas for Kendrys Morales trade so interesting. It is a trade that makes incredible sense for all parties involved, but there is at least some likelihood that either or both players could make their former club regret the move in the short term. Let's take a closer look at the players involved in the deal and why each club wanted to make this move.
On the Angels side, the team was in dire need of innings they could count on. After acquiring Tommy Hanson and his questionable shoulder as well as losing Zack Greinke to their cross-town rivals, the Dodgers, the Angels needed to find a starter who could give them guaranteed innings. Enter Jason Vargas. Vargas has been good for 190 plus innings over the last three season including over 200 Innings Pitched in 2011 and 2012. Vargas is a back-end of the rotation starter who has one terrific pitch in his arsenal, which is his change-up. Vargas' change-up is an elite pitch. To help characterize how elite a pitch it can be, we can look to some statistical measures. Per 100 pitches, Vargas saved 2.25 runs over the course of 2012 with his change-up. To understand in comparison, Justin Verlander's curveball, what many would consider his "put-away" pitch saved 2.04 runs per 100 pitches in 2012. Now clearly, no one in their right mind is going to positively compare Vargas to Verlander, but in terms of Vargas' change-up, I think it is important for everyone to understand that he does do something as well if not better than any other pitcher in the Major Leagues.

Mike Trout Is Still The Favorite For The A.L. MVP and ROY Awards
Tuesday September 11th, 2012
Jake Dal Porto: Mike Trout has arubably been the biggest difference maker in all of baseball. When the Angels began their season, the hype was focused on Albert Pujols and C.J. Wilson, their two big offseason acquisitions. But after enduring a miserable first month of the season, Trout was promoted, and the Angels took off. They went 18-12 in Trout's first 30 games, and that excellent streak instantly put them back in the race. He was leading them, their 21year-old outfielder. Not Pujols, not Wilson, Trout. Most MVP voters would've handed him the award just after those first 30 games.
Nowadays, Trout isn't quite as dominant. He has hit just .280/.350/.473 since August 15th. Obviously not bad, but they aren't good under his standards. But if the season concluded today, he would still be the winner. Despite the mini rut, his numbers are still exceptional. As of Sunday, Trout leads the A.L. in batting average (.328), WOBA% (.423), stolen bases (44), and WAR (8.4). Read the rest of this entry
Top Ten Stat Of The Week: Active Career Stolen Base Leaders
Wednesday August.8/2012
Chuck Booth (Lead Baseball Writer and @chuckbooth3024 on Twitter)- The game has been moving back towards speed, offense and athleticism since the adaptation of the steroid testing in the MLB. I think we will see a big emphasis on the Stolen Base in the coming years. We have Billy Hamilton coming in the near future and he could actually challenge a 100 Stolen Base in one season. 30 years ago there were several guys challenge or eventually succeed in stealing 100 bases. Rickey Henderson and Vince Coleman both hit the century mark 3 times, while Ron LeFlore and Tim Raines cracked the 90 SB plateau. Teams used to have several speedsters in their lineup. Jose Reyes has the most stolen bases in one year for the active players with 78 swipes in 2007.
I omitted Luis Castillo from the list because he has not played since 2010, (much to the delight of the New York Mets fans I am sure.) I am sure that Boston Red Sox fans are hopeful that he can regain his stolen base prowess very soon with him being only in the second year of a 7 YR/140 Million Dollar Contract. Johnny Damon also has foraged a great career to be on this list from sheer determination. Out of this top ten , Jose Reyes has the most steals per games played, while Omar Vizquel (who has played 2947 games) has the least amount of steals per game played. I was most surprised by Derek Jeter cracking this list because he has never stolen more than 34 bags in one year. I wonder how many bags Ichiro would have stolen had he arrived in North America earlier? Johnny Damon and Omar Vizquel making this top ten is a test to their long-playing careers. I figured Jimmy Rollins had more steals than what his totals came in as. Bobby Abreu has the most HRs on this list with 286 and Juan Pierre has the least. with 17.
Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim: 2012 World Series contenders?
Thursday July 19th, 2012
John Burns: The 2012 season for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim looks like it might be getting saved by a 20 year-old named Mike Trout. The L.A. Angels had a record of 6-14 before they called Trout up from Triple-A, and has a 44-27 record since the call up of Trout. Mike Trout leads the A.L. and is 3rd in baseball with a .353 batting average and is tied with Dee Gordon for the MLB lead in stolen bases with 30. Trout is almost a lock for the A.L. Rookie of the Year. But if he keeps this up and leads L.A. to the playoffs, he could be the A.L. MVP. Read the rest of this entry
Top Ten Stat of The Week: Odds To Win The AL/NL/WS
Monday July.9, 2012
Chuck Booth (Lead Baseball Writer and @chuckbooth3024)- I thought we would try a different top ten today with the ALL-Star Break here today. This morning I did some research on the odds of what http://www.bet365.com thinks will happen for the rest of the MLB Year based on their gambling futures. Gambling is an increasing industry like no other entity in the world. The NFL is better suited for 'punters' to throw down some bucks at Vegas. They have only one game a week and the gambling experts think that baseball is easier for the bad teams to beat the good teams. I will tell you as one of these 'so called experts', they are completely right. The worst teams in baseball usually can still beat the best teams 1 out of 3 games in a series. This makes normal gambling for a regular season game really hard to make any money, or minimize losses. I do think that betting who makes the playoffs and who wins it all has some good value picks.
Y0u have to search for the value in anything. I never like to play the #1 favorites of each league because they simply don't pay enough of an odd. Right now, Bet365.com has the Texas Rangers at +175 to win the AL, or The Yankees at +190. I love these two teams to probably represent the AL in the World Series, however these odds are not good at all. As I list all of the odds for each league first, then the World Series, I will make some notes up. I have two teams in the NL that I have already wagered with and I am coming up roses on them so far. It is time for Gambling 101. Read the rest of this entry
Paul Konerko is Playing Like An MVP in 2012
Wednesday June.20/2012
Chuck Booth (Lead Baseball Writer and @chuckbooth3024 on twitter)- Paul Konerko is a professional hitter. One day he will have his number retired from the Chicago White Sox at US Cellular Field. Drafted by the Los Angeles Dodgers 13th overall in the Amateur 1994 Draft, the 6 foot 2 slugger had lofty expectations by the time he made the Major Leagues. For the Albuquerque Isotopes in 1997, he hit .323 with 37 HRs and 127 RBI. The Dodgers ended up trading Konerko to Cincinnati for Jeff Shaw in 1998. The Reds then turned around and traded the man from Rhode Island to the Chicago White Sox for Mike Cameron.
There may be no more underrated player in the MLB over the last 14 years. All that Konerko has done is hit 402 HRs with the Chicago White Sox in that span and plated 1270 RBI. He currently sits 2nd all time in both categories on the club for the all time list, trailing only Frank Thomas . At age 36, Konerko seems to become better at the plate each year. He has hit .300 and clubbed 30 HRs and 100 RBI in both 2010 and 2011. If he keeps up this years pace, he will do it again, but this time he may challenge for an average title and possibly an AL MVP.
Paul Konerko enters today's action with an AL Best .357 AVG and a .431 OBP-in leading the team to a 35-33 start, which trails the Cleveland Indians by just a half game. The team had started off slow before Konerko went absolutely beserk in May and had raised his average to .399 at one point during his torrid streak. To date this year, he has hit 13 HRs and added 38 RBI. In my opinion, he will be selected to his 6th all-time ALL-star game in Kansas City next month when they unveil the roster. Now Konerko still has a chance to catch Prince Fielder with the fan voting with only being a few hundred thousand votes behind the Tigers 1st baseman.

Sepia Saturday : The Speed Boys Fly
A dip into the old photograph box pulls out this picture of two boys on their scooters. The one on the right is my brother Roger, the one of the left I am unsure about although the name "Colin Mallinson" creeps out of some dusty corner of my mind for no apparent reason. I know that Rog, in far off Dominica, checks out my blog every so often so at some stage he might let me know who his companion was. The writing on the bottom of the photograph is my mothers'. I think I recognise the location of the photograph : it must have been taken in Great Horton, Bradford and therefore must have been taken before 1952 when the family moved 5 miles down the road (up the road) to Halifax. "Eva's " grocers' shop cohabits that aforementioned dusty corner along with Colin Mallinson and road names such as Southmere Drive and Esmond Street.
So this is a post with almost as many answers as questions : an unusual feature for my Sepia Saturday contributions. We know who, at least, half the people are, we know where the photograph was taken, and we have a fair idea when it was taken. But Sepia Saturday wouldn't be Sepia Saturday without a bit of a mystery. So flip the photograph over and look on the reverse side. Why is it crown copyright and the property of the Air Ministry? They might be speed boys but surely they hadn't achieved escape velocity. My guess is that the photograph was home developed and printed using paper stock that was a wartime legacy, which, shall we say, fell off the back of a Air Ministry wagon. Could perhaps the photographer have served in the Air Force Photo Reconnaissance Service during the War? Could he or she have "liberated" a stock of photographic paper before being demobbed? Were the two lads on some kind of top secret test of foot-driven flying machines? There, I knew I would finish up with more questions than answers if I tried hard enough.
You can spend your weekend speeding through all the other Sepia Saturday posts by following the links from the Sepia Saturday Blog.

Oh the two boys are enjoying their ride. You have created many questions just by commenting on the photos...funny to consider the photgrapic paper being recycled as it were, but folks did not waste things...I loved to steal my brother's scooter when I got a chance grwoing up. Still like scooters...
ReplyDeleteMy father told me some years ago how, as a young lad during the war, he bought some some expired government photographic film (could it have been Air Ministry? possibly) which he and a friend cut up and used in their photographic adventures, with a home-made enlarger cobbled together from various scrounged parts. I'm guessing there would have been plenty of expired printing out paper as well, both before and after the war.

Beginner slalom
Well last year I bought my first mastercraft, a 1990 prostar 190 351 and powerslot. We leaned to wakeboard behind it the 2nd weekend we had it out and have had a blast since then. I've skied behind it quite a few times but since I learned to wakeboard Ive barely even touched my skis. I leaned to ski when I was maybe 10 behind a deck boat of my grandpas and was hooked, you couldn't keep me off the skis if I was at the lake. I slalomed one or two times by the time I was 16, then they sold the boat and I hadn't been on skis since. I got up first time on 2 this year and skied like I had never quit. I tried slalom but couldn't get out of the water. I want to take skiing to the next level, I want to slalom and be decent at it. I'm pretty good at wakeboarding, not awesome but I can wake to wake and a couple little things. My step dad used to be big into slalom and he is the one who taught me to ski. I've been trying to get him to ski since I got the boat but he is pretty busy and says he would be to sore from it to work the next week (he is 51). But I know there are older guys on here that slalom hardcore and still are great! This summer I'm looking to get him to go with me quite a few times and get him back into the grove of it. Our lake doesn't have a slalom course. I don't want us to get into tournament skiing or anything but I do want to be able to have something else to add to my water sports list.
So the questions: Where should I start? We have a good set of skis and 3 older slalom skis, I'll post pics of the slalom skis when I get home. Where can I find more info on terms& technique? When you guys are talking about 22 off or whatever it's like jibberish to me and I want to learn that stuff. Where can I find a portable course? Of course I'll have to be able to ski first but for later. Any pointers? Tapatalk |

Lily Allen says, "Its just beyond sad, there's nothing else to say. She was such a lost soul, may she rest in peace."
Matthew Morrison tweets: "A very sad day.
The world lost an incredible talent… My thoughts and prayers are with
her family and loved ones."
Lea Michele says: "Devastated to hear about Amy Winehouse…she was truly one of a kind…"
And songstress Kelly Clarkson took the time to write a particularly poignant message:
"I heard the news about Amy Winehouse. I'm incredibly sad. I didn't know
her but I met her a few times and got to hear her sing before she blew
up. She was a beautiful and talented girl. I'm angry. What a waste of a
gifted person. What a shame she saw no hope and continued living her
life in that manor. I have been that low emotionally and mentally and
that is overwhelming. I keep asking myself why some of us are spared and
the others are made examples. I'm very angry and sad. I don't know why
it's bothering me so much. Sometimes I think this job will be the death
of us all, or at least the emotional death of us all. Maybe that is why
as a little kid in sunday school I learned that God didn't want false
gods or idols. I thought it was terribly selfish of God as a child but I
think I get it now. He didn't want us following people or things that
are imperfect and not so much for the followers but for the gods and/or
idols who will never be what everyone wishes or needs them to be because
we are made imperfect. He knew we wouldn't be able to handle the
pressure, the shame, the glory, or the power the spotlight brings. I am
distraught. I am also extremely grateful and thankful for the people who
love me and support me. Without such amazing friends and family who
knows where I'd be. My thoughts and prayers are with her friends and
family. I am so sorry for your loss. I pray for peace in your hearts."
