it was about a post comparing players based on WAR...and comparing WAR values of a CF to a slew of other players...a post that you made...with content you found interesting enough to share in a public forum that others may comment on.
...and i made a comment...that talked about D weighting of WAR...and comparinging WAR values of a CF to a slew of other players...etc etc...
Thanks for shining a light on this very important topic and steering it away from the frivolity that was the awesomenes of Mike Trout, but moreso on the foolishness of WAR as a metric to judge the value of center fielders. We're all a little wiser now and your contributions are invaluable to this community and to America's pastime. God Bless!
so...what's chan-yong lim up to these days?
yes, those hamilton WAR numbers are very reasonable. i'm on your side now based on that biting commentary and reasoning of why he's a 3.5-ish WAR player over a 600 PA season.
those numbers are obviously well deserved and worthy of no scrutiny...none at all. no issue.
CF D is rarer than a jon lester pickoff at 2nd...totally irreplaceable...no way in hell there's good D, low/no-hitting CF's in anyone's system that could do what hamilton is doing. guys like this don't exist...you get like, 2-3 at any given time in history.
Please do not discuss War here. I think the Cub Reporter should be politics free.
But yes, whether you support War or Peace...Mike Trout is ridiculously consistent and good.
"According to FOX Sports' Jon Morosi, Tim Tebow's baseball workout Tuesday in Los Angeles will be attended by scouts from "roughly half" of the 30 major league teams."
"One scout told ESPN.com last week that Tebow's swing is so long it might "take out the front row." That's not a good thing."
MyrtleBeachPelicans [email protected]
The #MBpelicans and @Cubs have extended their PDC through 2020!
Carolina League getting 2 new teams too.
CF WAR is ridiculous...billy hamilton is pulling a 3.0 WAR somehow...and managed a 2.0 WAR last year (even though he missed a month of the season)...and a 3.7 WAR in 2014.
yeah, a lot depends on how one is doing relative to others at a given position, but WAR is common used (right or wrong) as a blanket comparing all kinds of players.
trout's one of the best, and at this point should probably win over donaldson (and should have more MVPs in the past, too), but the defensive aspect of valuing WAR still needs more tweaking...imo.
Mike Trout is ridiculous
Don't know if Cubs will recover from "spanking" Gordo
2nd in defensive WAR, NL.
6th in NL in RBI
Go complain about something else, like, "they never play good against the good teams", or some other shit.
Addy really has trouble breaking through .250 BA -- after his hot streak got him to .251, he has gone 1-for-17.
Thank goodness for Jansen's 2 WP on Friday -- otherwise this would have been a sweep.
There seems to be a direct correlation with overconfidence in the Cubs offense against mediocre/young pitchers and really poor offense against mediocre/young pitchers. So, let's fear the Pirate pitchers!

He should be our pick if he's there at #30. The problem is I think he'll go top 15 after the combine. This kid Would be a steal at 30. I know we need a wide receiver, but unless Floyd or Wright drop to 30 I'll take a pass on any other wideout at this spot. Look Frank Gore was sweet for six games in the middle of the season and then steadily declined at the end. I like frank gore a lot but he cannot be depended on to be the #1 rb for an entire season. Hunter is not an every down back. And I like the new two back (3 with gore) system in the NFL today. Miller can solely ease into the roll of being the number one back with frank gore getting 10-12 carries a game, and the same for hunter. Both being from the "U", should help the transition.
Lamar Miller- (pros) home run speed, sure hands, great cut back ability, one cut-goodbye- touchdown,very very good vision, great pass catcher, experienced kick returner,good since of where the first down marker is, but what impressed me the most is his yards after contact. Much like frank gore, miller hardly ever gets tackled by the first tackler, and seems to break off2-3 big runs a game.He's constantly bouncing forward off of would be tacklers and all (alright not all) but most of his runs are for positive yards.
(cons)-he will not be the short yardage back. He has very little pass blocking experience. Yeah I wouldn't want him at 30 if I could think of anymore.
This kid will be good in the pros and I really hope the niners select him if he' available, but I expect his 40 time to push him in the top 15.

Hundreds of delegates attend ICC Banking Commission meeting in Dubai
The ICC Banking Commission meeting, organised and hosted by the Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry in partnership with the International Chamber of Commerce, concluded on Wednesday with finance and trade delegates coming up with constructive recommendations.
Held from April 27-30 at the Chamber headquarters under the title 'Dubai 2014-Gateway to Sustainable Trade and Development' the meeting was a hit with over 427 attendees from 60 countries. The delegates consisted of the World Bank, World Trade Organisation, business leaders, finance experts, lawyers, government and ICC UAE Regional Banking Commission officials, who succeeded in their objective of forging new business partnerships and alliances by developing connections and sharing ideas.
The discussion topics focused on issues such as the new engines of growth in trade finance, value creation opportunities and prospects for the industry as well as the harmonisation of business practices, the development of a common terminology for supply chain finance, and the impact of compliance requirements and sanctions on business.
Hisham Al Shirawi, second vice chairman, Dubai Chamber, expressed his pleasure in the Chamber's hosting of the ICC Banking Commission bi-annual meeting in Dubai for the second time.
"Our partnership with the ICC Banking Commission is excellent and this global event has helped Dubai forge a very strong relationship with the ICC Banking Commission and the delegates coming from all over the world. We hope, by hosting this prestigious conference we are able to highlight the city's advantages for the global trade, banking and finance communities," said Al Shirawi.
He further stressed that business and consumer confidence in Dubai is currently very strong and it will continue to rise with the impetus of Expo 2020. Trade contributes 30 per cent to GDP and providing trade finance services that meet the needs of the rapidly changing world is important for Dubai's future growth, he added.

Visual arts encompass anatomy and figure drawing, clay and sculpture, fashion design, film and videography, oil painting, photography and printmaking.
The extensive curricular visual art offerings described below are supplemented with evening figure drawing courses, the Art Club, the Photo Club, and the Intaglio (printmaking) Society. All visual art courses will require the purchase of a small amount of materials. Those that require more extensive purchases – which can be in excess of $100 – are indicated in the descriptions below. The Academy has limited financial aid available for these supplies purchases.
The extensive visual art courses described below are supplemented with extracurricular activities such as the Art Club, Intaglio Society, and Fashion Club. Many visual art courses will require the purchase of materials. The fees will vary and those that require more extensive purchases can exceed $100.00. The Academy strives to provide all students the opportunity to experience the arts and has limited financial aid available.
1 Credit (8851)Prerequisite: None
Drawing utilizes simple material to explore both our visual perception, and the structural relationships of the world. It is a fundamental tool for effective visual communication. Drawing builds a repertoire of problem-solving strategies that can be utilized in all aspects of life and learning. Students may also explore basic painting mediums such as ink wash, watercolor or acrylic. This course introduces a foundation of technical and language skills, upon which further visual art studies will build. Weekly homework assignments are designed to reinforce the principles learned in class. Students should expect to pay a small materials fee.
1 Credit (8883)Prerequisites: Foundations of Drawing and Painting
Knowledge of the structure, balance, and movement of the human figure is an essential skill in many fields of visual art, such as fashion design and animation, and an excellent training in observation and visual problem-solving for any artist. This course builds on observational drawing skills introduced and practiced in Foundations of Drawing and Painting.
1 Credit (8885)Prerequisites: Anatomy and Figure Drawing I
This course will build upon the basics of human anatomy introduced and practiced in Anatomy and Figure Drawing I. Students will explore more deeply the bone and muscular structures, and use these ideas in the creation of large drawing compositions.
1 Credit (8852)Prerequisite: Foundations of Drawing and Painting
Students will learn various techniques and effects using water-based paints. They will explore watercolor, gouache, and tempera. Watercolor is transparent and allows light to reflect from the surface of the paper. Gouache is a type of paint consisting of a pigment suspended in water which is more opaque than watercolor and provides greater lightreflection. The course will finish with a study in tempera which is a permanent and fast drying painting medium using a pigment mixed with a binder (such as egg yolk). Its use dates back to the 1st century A.D. and was an easel painting method used until oil painting was invented in 1500 A.D. The course will cover design, composition, value and color in landscape, still life, and portrait painting.
1 Credit (8853)Prerequisite: Water-Based Painting I
This class is a continuation of the skills and principles introduced in Water-Based Painting I, with added emphasis on individual painting technique and expression. Students will have the opportunity to explore a medium of their choice, polish their skills in painting, and create pigments, binders, and painting substrates. Demonstrations of waterbased mediums will be balanced with lectures and individual projects.
1 Credit (8856)Prerequisite: Foundations of Drawing and Painting or by department recommendation
This course is an introduction to fine art printmaking and an exploration of creative process through intaglio and relief printing. Students will create original compositions from life, develop and revise the images on copper plates and wood blocks, then print the images by hand or on an etching press. Presentation of prints for group critique and public exhibition are an important part of this course. Students will maintain a body of working proofs and artist proofs that will add breadth and depth to their art portfolios. Students registered in this class are eligible to join Intaglio Society, and may apply for our annual workshop in Florence, Italy
1 Credit (8857)Prerequisites: Printmaking I and by department recommendation
This course is an intermediate level fine art intaglio printmaking experience. The full range of intaglio techniques will be explored including hard and soft ground etching, aquatint, and open and spit bite, as well as all the major engraving techniques. Students will explore creative process as they deepen their knowledge and comfort level with revising images from proof to proof in pursuit of personal voice, and continue to build their art portfolios. As in printmaking I, group critique and the presentation of public exhibitions are an important part of this course. Participation in all of the Intaglio Society's opportunities is encouraged.

Life Before Feminism: "It's a shame to whip your wife on Sunday."
I have a certain fondness for old-timey hillbilly music, the kind of stuff you can find on any number of great compilations on Yazoo records. But sometimes, alas, the lyrics to the songs reflect some old-timey bigotries that are much less charming than the music itself. Poking around on YouTube earlier today looking for the stuff I ran across this little ditty:
The lyrics:
Well, it's a shame to whip your wife on Sunday.
Yes, it's a shame to whip your wife on Sunday.
When you've got Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday, Friday, Saturday
It's a shame to whip your wife on Sunday.
It's a shame to get drunk on Sunday.
Yes, it's a shame to get drunk on Sunday.
When you've got Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday, Friday, Saturday
It's a shame to get drunk on Sunday.
Pity about the lyrics, because it's got such a nice little banjo riff.
Cleanse your ears out with this song, a perky little number called "Hallelujah to the Lamb," that I think would leave even Satan himself tapping his cloven hooves.
Posted on November 29, 2011, in life before feminism, misogyny, music, reactionary bullshit, that's not funny!, violence against men/women. Bookmark the permalink. 81 Comments.
it is always adorable when someone uses 'you know a lot of words' as an insult.
"lately I've been having a hell of a time skimming through the other thread – the one where no trolls showed up, so you all turned on each other."
See I'm glad you brought this up, because I've been meaning to go on a rant about this little unwinnable situation.
If feminists* agree with each other, they get accused of being an echo chamber or a hive mind. If feminists disagree with each other they get accused of turning on their own and being hostile. Fuck that shit and fuck you for trying it on.
*I've seen the same no-win situation forced onto atheists so it's not exclusively a feminist thing.
Actually I'd say that the fact that MRAs usually refuse to disagree with each other is far more of a flaw than lots of arguing.
I'd just like to point out (as the person who quoted Robert Johnson above did) that misogyny and domestic violence are pretty strong continuing themes in a bunch of folk (including blues as part of "folk") canons.
But the interesting thing about the Robert Johnson song (that was me; hi) is how self-conscious it is: in attributing his desire to commit DV to demonic influence, the speaker implies that he knows that this isn't the right way to behave.
I find the same sort of knowing darkness in a lot of Johnson's songs, as opposed to a song like this, which takes a much more "naive" standpoint:
Wish I was a mole in the ground
Wish I was a mole in the ground
Mole in the ground, I'd root that mountain down
Wish I was a mole in the ground
Wish I was a lizard in the spring
Wish I was a lizard in the spring
A lizard in the spring, I'd hear my true love sing
If I was a mole in the ground
Don't marry a railroad man
Don't marry a railroad man
A railroad man gonna kill you if he can
And drink up your blood like wine
Baby wants a nine dollar shawl
Baby wants a nine dollar shawl
When I come around the hill with my twenty dollar bill
She says honey where you been so long
Now, baby where you been so long
Honey where you been so long
Said I been to Caroline to see that gal of mine
That's where I been so long
I said, honey where'd you stay last night
Baby where'd you stay last night
Said I stayed around the bend
With some rough and rowdy men
And now I'm goin back again
The third verse takes violence absolutely for granted in a way that Johnson's "artier" song doesn't. I know Johnson wrote a lot of the songs he sang, but I don't know whether or not he wrote "Me and the Devil Blues." It wouldn't surprise me, though, since it's so much more introspective than a lot of folk music.
Actually I'd say that the fact that MRAs usually refuse to disagree with each other is far more of a flaw than lots of arguing.
Remember when DKM and Brandon were posting in the same thread, each advocating ideal worlds that the other completely disagreed with, yet they never acknowledged each other? Yeah, that is a sign of some robust discourse right there.
You don't even see an ally when he comes up to you and all but bites you on the nose!
Meller owes me a new cute cream cableknit, this one is covered with orange juice. "Ally?"
News flash: domestic violence happened in whatever your ideal era was, too (some sort of magical 1950-meets-1830 type of situation?) Victims just didn't have the same chances to speak out.
Zhinxy, I'm so sorry you had to experience that. I applaud your bravery in mentioning it in a space where idiots are free to tell you that you either deserved it, or it didn't happen at all.
If feminists* agree with each other, they get accused of being an echo chamber or a hive mind. If feminists disagree with each other they get accused of turning on their own and being hostile. Fuck that shit and fuck you for trying it on.
Quoted for truth.
Note that none of our usual trolls had the stones to step in that thread.
MRAL did, right before it got shut down. Total vapidity, as usual.
This song is really a progressive Christian song of the 1920's criticizing people who were willing to suspend sinning (whipping your wife, drinking, gambling, etc) on Sundays but would be "Godless" the rest of the week.
This song is certainly not an anti-feminist song. If anything, it was even more progressive than the people knew it was. The problem with Christians and others exists today – people do not practice what they preach and this song is pure satire.
The days before feminism… this is unfair and misrepresentation of the song.
I think his mistake was that he made the video without "explaining in detail", what the song was about. The song is about religious hypocrites, people who sin Monday-Saturday and then think that because they go to church on Sunday they are without fault.
If you study history in particular, 1800's-1900's ….alcohol was very much the work of the devil, people thought, because of this alcohol was looked down upon, a sinners drink, so to have a song that has domestic violence paired with alcohol, isn't in any way linking the two as if they were to go hand-in-hand but rather to say that whipping a wife is extremely bad.
Basically, the song is literally calling out the man on his own hypocrisy "Why stop whipping your wife on a Sunday to hide the fact that you're a wife-beater?, The song was meant to embarrass, and to make men feel guilty for lack of accountability"
The other thing is there is a lot of bluegrass, blues, and folk songs that depict horrible stories,you have to understand that back in those days…..songs were a way for slaves to carry down oral history, many couldn't read, many couldn't write, and to record the grief of those times, it was done by word of mouth, passed down from one generation to the next.
I find your take on the song interesting. Because you are almost certainly missing the point. First of all the song is not chauvinistic at all. His line about whipping your wife on Sunday is like the other verses in that he is pointing out undesirable behaviors. Other verses talk about playing cards, getting drunk, and in the case of fishing… I guess at that time in history, people thought it more desirable to be in church on "the Sabbath".
The intent of this song was to be "tongue in cheek". The writer is actually poking fun at people who were "Sunday Only Christians". Meaning the person who is righteous on Sunday, but sins the rest of the week. In other words it's not OK to sin on Sunday, but the rest of the week it's perfectly fine.
Once you understand the satire of the song, you realize it was fairly groundbreaking. Which is why a lot of modern artist still perform it today. I would be careful to categorize this as biggotry. It's nothing of the sort.

Skill Level Appropriate for all
Kim Romano is working on a presentation for the next staff meeting. She has received some videos that she might want to include. Let's see how we can use the new Video features of PowerPoint 2010 to insert, preview, touch up, and edit the videos in a presentation. Let's begin by inserting a video. This is a Content Slide. So, we could simply click Insert Media Clip or we could go to Insert > Video > Video from File. And we're going to add this Fall arrangement - zoom out video.
Notice that the video is placed centered on this slide in the Presentation but below the title. The Video Tools tab is open. Format and Playback. Let's begin with the Playback tab. We just dropped this video in. Let's listen to it, look at it and see what it feels like. (Video Playing) The audio that's here is relatively meaningless and we actually want employees to send us videos.
The point of including this video in the presentation is to say, "If you "can capture some video in your retail setting, if you can capture some "video of staff in the nursery or the greenhouse, we'd be happy to have "some of those videos." So, we don't necessarily need great video here, but we need a great sample. We don't necessarily need the audio. We'll be using it on the website and this won't be used to teach. It will be used to illustrate what it is we're doing in our business. So, let's go ahead and totally mute this video and play it again so we can just watch it and not even listen because we don't need the soundtrack. (Video Playing) So, it's a nice zoom out to this point and then we have a little disorientation, or shaking of the video.
So, let's go ahead and trim that video a little bit. Let's go back to the point where it looks really good. A nice solid zoom out that's happening here. It's centered in the middle and then right there is where we start to swing a little bit off to the right. So, I simply clicked the Pause button in the Preview and now let's actually slide this back to the point. Notice we can do this incrementally. At 7 seconds there, it's still in the center, remains in the center and now it starts to drift. This is where we sort of get this course correction.
So, let's go all the way back to 8 seconds and think that that's probably a good place to stop this video. So, let's click the Trim Video button, another new feature. Notice the blue line shows where we just paused and let's grab the End button, slide it up tight here. You could also do this manually. You could simply say, "Let's stop it, 8 seconds." One a website an 8 second video that isn't providing audio, but only visual content, it's a pretty good size clip.
Click in the beginning here. Let's play it now. (Video Playing) Notice that nice slide out, all the way to 8 seconds. Now let's look at the beginning again, just the very beginning. There is a little bit of a jiggle at the start as well. So, what if we were to start just a little tiny bit further in, right there. And let's look again now at our Video and see if it's solid all the way through right there.
Notice now nice and smooth, we've taken that little ripple out at the beginning. We've cut off the movement at the end. We have a nice zoom all the way out. So, let's go ahead and Trim the Video now. We now have a video that's slightly less than 8 seconds in length. Let's say OK. And there is our new Video. (Video Playing) Nice run, all the way out. Now, if we wanted this to play full screen, we could Choose Play Full Screen, Hide While Not Playing. We can choose to Start it Automatically or On Click.
These were choices that we had in earlier versions of PowerPoint as well. If we wanted some volume, if we were showing it in a live presentation and the video audio portion was important, we could turn it to Low, Medium or High, just make sure you listen to it. Let's take a look now at the Formatting tools and you'll find that we have many of the same adjustment tools here that we have for looking at photographs. So, we can correct the Brightness and Contrast. You really can't sharpen video or soften video, but you can change its Brightness and Contrast. And if we thought this looked markedly better, well, actually it might here with a little less Contrast.
More Brightness doesn't help, but less Contrast might. Let's take a look at that. See if we like it better. (Video Playing) Actually, I think that's a little crisper with less Contrast than with more Contrast. So, we'll make that Correction. We could colorize it. Now that the point of the flowers is that they're colorful themselves, but if we had something that we wanted to render in, in Black and White or in Sepia or in any of the colors of our theme, we could do that as well.
We can also assign a Poster Frame and what a Poster Frame is is an image that you choose or the Current Frame, any frame. You can move to a particular point and say we actually liked what it looked like right here or right here. And you can choose any frame or a separate picture to serve as the image that will be here until we click the Play button. So, you could choose, for example, a Frame towards the end of a video or you could choose an image that's related to the video but not the same and it will again, cover this spot until the point where you play the video file behind it.
We can also do some framing. We could, for example, take a look and say, "What would this look like if we "played it in a Soft Oval?" Let's try that. Actually, I like that. A Hard Frame, sort of a Button Frame, a mirrored image reflected down below. Let's take a look and see what this looks like. Get a little bit of the mirror down here, but I think I prefer that Soft Oval. Let's switch to Slide Show View and view our Video by choosing Start Slide Show From Current Slide.
Notice as I move into the Video, I get a Play button. (Video Playing). Very nice! PowerPoint 2010 has all the tools to help you Preview, Trim and Embed Videos in your presentations, so you can affectively engage your audience in your message.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|30 nights
Cute as a cottage! We stuck to a more 'midwest home' type of decorating scheme. New paint, carpet, furniture, 32' flat screen in living room, 20' in bedroom local stations. DVD player, small library of DVD's. I just finished remodeling the kitchen in February with travertine floor and backsplash, stainless appliances and granite sink with quartz countertops. Remodeled bathroom with large garden tub. This is one of the complexes "handicap accessible" units. New dishwasher and washing machine. Private garage parking with electric opener. Pool and club house are located kitty corner across the street.
We both grew up in the NE Iowa and SW Wisconsin area. We have traveled the US fairly extensively and some foreign travel. As we are nearing retirement we re-examined our travel experiences and decided the Arizona winter weather would be the most enjoyable for us a some point. Until we reach the 'snowbird' stage we will share our home away from home with a few others.
Gary David purchased this condo in 2011
As previously stated we love the moderate weather of the Arizona winters. When we were viewing properties in the Phoenix area we kept coming back to Bella Terra. The pool and club house area are wonderful and well kept. We especially enjoy our morning walks and are constantly adding new routes around the neighborhood. Everything we need is within a short walk or drive. We even found a top notch Packer bar to watch the games!
While we were in business the old addage of 'location, location, location' was important and it came into play with our choice of this condo. The condo is within a mile of groceries and basic essentials. Even a fresh cup of coffee is only a .75 mile walk away. The Paradise Valley Mall is only 5 minutes away.
We chose to purchase our condo in the Scottsdale-Paradise Valley area because of the seemingly endless things to see and do.
If golf is your thing there are 20 public courses listed within 10 miles. TPC is only 8 miles away!
Shopping from Walmart to the Paradise Valley Mall to the high end shops at Kierland are all within eight miles.
If you enjoy casinos there are many to choose from. Talking Stick is approx. 11 miles.
The choice of restaurants is amazing. From the usual chains like Outback, Ihop, 5 Guys, In and Out, Chili's to the places like Chelsea's Kitchen, Houstons and Z Tejas
Mayo Clinic Hospital is only six miles away.
Old Town Scottsdale in fun with many souvenir shops and small specialty restaurants.
Probably our favorite 'thing to do' is spring training for the Cactus League. Six of the ten stadiums are within about a 40 minute drive (Salt River Fields is about 10 minutes) the other four stadiums are slightly farther.
The condo is located on the Shea side of the complex so you can watch the commuters going to work while you enjoy a cup of morning coffee.
If you prefer your own cooking the newly remodeled kitchen is equipped with the essentials to get the job done.
The grounds and club house with the treadmills, free weights and station machines are very well kept. The pool and grill area is awesome!!
If you enjoy walking I have walked the area neightborhoods extensively and can give you nice routes from 2 to 7 miles.

The central point argued in Vali Nasr's book "The Dispensable Nation" is that for the Obama administration, diplomacy took a back seat to the military as the administration took control of the war in Afghanistan from the Bush administration. In fact, the second part of the book's title is "American Foreign Policy in Retreat". As the chief aide to Richard Holbrooke, whom Obama chose as his special envoy to Afghanistan and Pakistan, Nasr puts Holbrooke on quite a pedestal in the book, and others have built a bit of a cottage industry around attacking Nasr's version of events, but I want to concentrate just on the missed opportunity for diplomacy.
Setting aside the arguing over Holbrooke and Nasr, it is clear that Nasr has identified a fatal flaw in Obama's handling of Afghanistan. Nasr describes a very early opening for negotiations with the Taliban that was squandered:
Around that time, in fall 2009, Holbrooke and I had a meeting with Egypt's foreign minister. Egypt's intelligence chief, General Abu Suleiman (who later became vice president when Mubarak fell), was also in the room. At one point he turned to Holbrooke and said, "The Taliban visited us in Cairo." Holbrooke said, "Really, who came? Do you remember?" Abu Suleiman reached into his bag, pulled out a piece of paper, held it before his face, and read three names. The last one made us all pause. It was Tayed Agha, a relative the Taliban chief, Mulla Omar, as well as his secretary and spokesman, whom we knew to be actively probing talks with the United States on Taliban's behalf. We knew Tayed Agha to be a player, but we did not know then that he would become America's main Taliban interlocutor in first secret and later formal talks that began in 2011 (and were made public in February 2012).
Although Holbrooke jumped at the opportunity and presented the case to the Obama administration, they were dismissive of the idea during the critical time that they were developing and then implementing McChrystal's vaunted surge of troops in Afghanistan. From the Foreign Policy excerpt of the book:
FROM THE OUTSET, Holbrooke argued for political reconciliation as the path out of Afghanistan. But the military thought talk of reconciliation undermined America's commitment to fully resourced COIN. On his last trip to Afghanistan, in October 2010, Holbrooke pulled aside Petraeus, who by then had replaced McChrystal as commander in Afghanistan, and said, "David, I want to talk to you about reconciliation." "That's a 15-second conversation," Petraeus replied. "No, not now."
The commanders' standard response was that they needed two more fighting seasons to soften up the Taliban. They were hoping to change the president's mind on his July deadline and after that convince him to accept a "slow and shallow" (long and gradual) departure schedule. Their line was that we should fight first and talk later. Holbrooke thought we could talk and fight. Reconciliation should be the ultimate goal, and fighting the means to facilitate it.
The Obama administration did its utmost to undermine Holbrooke's efforts on the diplomatic front during this time: Continue reading
Foreign Policy has published an excerpt from Vali Nasr's book The Dispensable Nation: American Foreign Policy in Retreat, in which Nasr relates his experiences as a key deputy to Richard Holbrooke, who served as Barack Obama's special envoy to Afghanistan and Pakistan. The title for the piece tells virtually the entire story: "The Inside Story of How the White House Let Diplomacy Fail in Afghanistan". The piece should be read in full (as should the book, I presume), but I want to highlight a couple of passages that fit well with points I have tried to make over the years regarding US policy in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
First, we see an Obama tactic that has not been limited to his foreign policy actions, but is characteristic of him on the whole, where he makes a public move such as appointing Holbrooke, where the move has the appearance of a very positive step, but Obama then undercuts the move entirely by providing no further support (such as when he nominated Dawn Johnsen to head OLC and then abandoned her entirely, even when he could have forced a confirmation vote that would have been affirmative under bmaz's whip count). Here is how Nasr described Holbrooke's fate once he established his office:
Still, Holbrooke knew that Afghanistan was not going to be easy. There were too many players and too many unknowns, and Obama had not given him enough authority (and would give him almost no support) to get the job done. After he took office, the president never met with Holbrooke outside large meetings and never gave him time and heard him out. The president's White House advisors were dead set against Holbrooke. Some, like Lt. Gen. Douglas Lute, were holdovers from George W. Bush's administration and thought they knew Afghanistan better and did not want to relinquish control to Holbrooke. Others (those closest to the president) wanted to settle scores for Holbrooke's tenacious campaign support of Clinton (who was herself eyed with suspicion by the Obama insiders); still others begrudged Holbrooke's storied past and wanted to end his run of success then and there. At times it appeared the White House was more interested in bringing Holbrooke down than getting the policy right.
What drives Obama's craven manipulation of people in this way? Nasr nails that particularly well:
Not only did that not happen, but the president had a truly disturbing habit of funneling major foreign-policy decisions through a small cabal of relatively inexperienced White House advisors whose turf was strictly politics. Their primary concern was how any action in Afghanistan or the Middle East would play on the nightly news, or which talking point it would give the Republicans. The Obama administration's reputation for competence on foreign policy has less to do with its accomplishments in Afghanistan or the Middle East than with how U.S. actions in that region have been reshaped to accommodate partisan political concerns.
And this reliance on managing to the day's news cycle ended just as badly as one would expect. Obama should pay heed to Nasr's dire warning in his epitaph of the Afghan "adventure", but we can rest assured that the band of political trolls surrounding him will put their fingers in their ears and shout "I can't hear you" as Nasr warns of failure for the "exit plan" (emphasis added): Continue reading

Who Got This Gig? Voicing Mr. Church... Mr. Thomas Hayden Church!
By Stephanie Ciccarelli
March 21, 2008
What did you do this week in the wonderful world of voice over?
Find out what this guy was up to and why he looks so darn happy here at VOX Daily.
Welcome to the third Friday of Who Got the Gig!
I heard from a very proud, blessed and ecstatic teacher, Pat Fraley, that one of his students, Chris Fries, had landed some work recording a voice match for Hollywood actor Thomas Hayden Church, a line to be featured in an upcoming movie trailer!
Congratulations Chris :)
Pretty exciting stuff, isn't it?

I had William Keever brought to my attention by another web site called pissed consumer. He has attended my church only a couple of times and he has been trying to say that he is a director of Breakout Ministries. I looked up the company and its out of compliance in Georgia. He is NOT an attorney and he is NOT a member of the American Bar Association. www.williamkeever.com is a fraud! He will take money from women and the elderly that think they are helping. Spread the word. We will not sit back and let him use our name to further his evil. There are people telling me now that he was involved with other people in a chuch that did this exact same thing. What a horrible man. He I believe has a mental issue. I spoke with a "friend" of his in Georgia and they said that he has issues there that are still pending.
Thank you to pissed consumer and other sites who show him for what he is!!

Sat up nearly all night getting this done. I like it ... but wouldn't mind feed back. Especially from non-Firefox users (I'm too lazy to install Wine and get IE working with it ...)
Sat up nearly all night getting this done. I like it ... but wouldn't mind feed back. Especially from non-Firefox users (I'm too lazy to install Wine and get IE working with it ...)
I like it. It's stylish, but the style doesn't get in the way of the function.
I just realized I should have included a link, tho. Here it is ... http://blogs.indigopixel.com/tim
I think it looks great! Clean, clear and easy to navigate. Good job.
I noticed that your footer may not be acting right...
But I do I like it!
Also, when you resize the window, the sidebar changes width and the main content stays the same.
I love the simplicity of your design. It's very easy on the eyes and has easy navigation. Great job!
Your blog says that people can download your theme from somewhere on your site, but I haven't been able to find it. Your style is exactly what I am looking for for my humble little blog...something nice, but simple. Could you let me know where to get access to your code?
In IE 6, the main page is broken: you can as far down the main column as the side bar extends. Also, there is a weird vertical white gap in the header area between the site title and the search area.
Also, I echo the concern about the sidebar resizing when the window is resized. It would be better if the main column did the resizing.
I really like the basic look though, including the search up top.
First off ... thanks all for your comments. Sorry I haven't been able to respond ... was away for 2 weeks to a wedding
pinkdivinity, alisha04: thank you.
Marianne: yeah, I noticed that too a while back ... I think it's fixed now, tho.
andrea_r and WhollyHis: the sidebar scaling was planned and is easier to do, but I think I may make a minimum width (though that requires a hack for IE) - because it looks bad when the screen is REALLY small.
gregkendallball: thanks for pointing that out. I'll fix that ASAP, and leave a download link here (and on the blog).
WhollyHis: I checked it out in IE 6 while I was away, just to see how things looked, and didn't notice the white bar you mentioned, and I'm unsure what you mean about the sidebar ("you can as far down the main column as the side bar extends"). But I'll check again, and see if I can't resolve it.
Ooops ... the sidebar/footer issue is still around. will work that kink out, and upload a new version.

Before offering adverse criticisms it should be said that this book contains so much valuable material on medical economics as to entitle it to careful reading by every one interested in this subject. So far as the book has a central theme it seems to be that medicine is moving toward more and more organization. Developments are presented with more emphasis laid on the activities of medical societies and consumer organizations than on compulsory sickness insurance. However, the strong bias against organized medicine and in favor of what might be called the social service point of view is dominant. The statements of the Committee on the Costs of Medical Care and the Interdepartmental Committee and the National Health Conference are accepted as authoritative.
The subject of the quality of care as a test of the value of any method of supplying medical care is carefully avoided. By implication, at least,

SUMMIT COUNTY - While neither the Frisco Police Department nor the Summit County Sheriff's Office intends to put McCormick's case on the back burner, it does happen with missing persons cases, said Undersheriff Derek Woodman."Realistically, there are cases that are going to come to head that are going to take some precedence (over McCormick's case)," Woodman said.The sheriff's office has two cases on file that have been inactive for many years.The first occurred in July of 1981, when Tereasa Knuth's boyfriend reported her missing from the squatters camp where they lived outside Frisco where the County Commons now sit.The 23-year-old's purse, money and identification all remained in the couple's converted school bus, but Knuth was never seen again.The most recent work on the case Woodman could recall was in the late 1980s or early 1990s when police received information that Knuth's body could be in the woods near Montezuma. A group searched the area on foot, but never found anything.In November 1990, Michael McClure's roommate reported him missing when McClure never returned home to their Wildernest condo. McClure, 30, had called in sick to his plumbing job the day before, and his roommate hadn't seen or heard from him in more than 36 hours, according to the original police report.McClure's vehicle, a 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle, was never found either.While both McClure and Knuth are still listed as missing people, their cases no longer receive consistent attention, Woodman said."The unfortunate reality is they do kind of go by the wayside," he said. "As new cases go in, we're only able to keep up with what we've got. The harsh reality is they do get looked at very infrequently, I'll bet money that neither of them (has been) looked at in 10 years."Cases are particularly difficult to continue investigating when leads stop coming in, he said.

I'm working towards a first beta release of CG-PowerPack that's compatible with WP1.5, thus I'm numbering it 1.5 to match... ;)
In addition to features from the 1.0 branch, there are now some admin panels for select plugins, and a few new plugins like CG-AntiSpam (what I've been using under 1.0 that applies some rules and the referrer blacklist to comments) and CG-Pagename (you can do <--nextpage:SomePageName-->, and get text table of contents links/list for multipage posts...).
I have locally proven out the compatability of a good amount of the PowerPack code with 1.5 (CG-Amazon, CG-Inline, Amazon+Inline, CG-Referrer, CG-Feedread, CG-AntiSpam, CG-Pagename, ...), though by no means exhaustive, and only on a local XP box with Apache+PHP5.
I know there's a few of you waiting eagerly for some of these, and I'm happy to make a prerelease available (I should probably call it an 'alpha', given how unpolished/unfinished much of it will be...).
Lemme know here or cgcode at chait.net.

In my case, they call from India asking for personal information for an insurance quote. They called my cell phone 8 times in one day and left no message. When I finally tracked them down, they SAY they work for Program Match in Forest Hills NY. but the phone number is out of Miami FL (A SKYPE Phone Number). They would not give me a business address or a contact phone number until I verified my personal information. DUH!! I didn't...In short, if SKYPE and its subsidaries is a company you wish to deal with, so be it. As far as I am concerned they are BAD NEWS, untrustworthy and to top it off there was a utub video on how to hack there system (unverified nor interested).
I am one american who is sick and tied of this sort of crap and wonder just what does the FBI do all day since they are not stopping these scam artists and others and NOT protecting the american people. SKYPE is all about the money and has no security or verification to whom they do biz with
SO stay away from SKYPE or you get what you ask for... TROUBLE. Have fun and be safe out there........
