Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
As mentioned earlier, Aaron Miles has been activated and slugger Jake Fox has been sent down giving the Cubs the worst bench that has ever been assembled. Okay, tonight's actually isn't so bad with the lefty Wandy Rodriguez on the mound: Fontenot, Hill, Blanco, Fukudome and Hoffpauir. But for the next couple of weeks, assuming the normal starters of Fukudome, Fontenot and let's say Miles at second base, the bench will be: Hill, Johnson, Hoffpauir, Scales and Blanco.
Wittenmyer though says the plan is to give Jake Fox regular at-bats so that they can call him up in 11-12 days so he can sit on the major league bench again when interleague games begin. I suppose he'll DH a bit, but he'll have to fight Hoffpauir for those at-bats and Fox is on the short side of that platoon. Also, don't be too suprised if Lou changes his mind on all of this in a week and a half and realizes he wants to give some regulars a break by DH'ing them and Fox's defensive limitations get him passed over by the Miles, Scales and Blancos of the world.
Lineup for tonight: Soriano, Theriot, Bradley, Lee, Johnson, Soto, Scales, Miles, Zambrano
Bourne, Tejada, Pence, Lee, Berkman, Blum, Kata, Quintero, Wandy.
Also, the Astros have been flipping starters for tomorrow's finale between the originally scheduled Mike Hampton to Roy Oswalt back to Hampton and currently settling on Russ Ortiz. It's like Cecil Cooper wants to get fired.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
That's rithickulous.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Does Wandy own us? It feels for some reason like he does.
Edit* 4-4 with a 4.39 ERA. Just about his career average.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
I always remember Rodriguez to be an extreme home/away pitcher. 3.92 career home ERA; 5.40 on the road.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
I thought the same thing -- he always seems to shut the Cubs down. Tonight seems more the norm than the exception.
Tough loss -- let's get one tomorrow and make it a good trip.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
I still can't help but wonder why Aaron Miles? We made fun of mcfail for these moves. Hendry gets a pass?
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
wasn't hendry GM for mc?fail during mcfail's last few years?
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
The same things people said about Miles are what we said about DeRosa when he signed. That's why Hendry gets a pass. Plus Miles was sending line drives all over the park tonight.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Wait....were we saying about DeRosa: Wow, he really doesn't hit or get on base much...or He's small, but he's slow?"
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
We were saying that he was a utility man who was coming of a career year in Texas and didn't deserve the contract he was given.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Alrighty....you are right then..
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Has any NL outfielder been worse than Bradley so far this year?
If so, it would boggle the mind.
He seems too close to the plate -- inside fastballs eat him alive.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
He really looks awful at the plate, too. I mean, my lord he was totally getting the calls yesterday and today so he can't pull that umps are picking on me crap.
I was in the let's be patient camp but he's pissing me off.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Rodman was a horse's ass who was entertaining and produced.
Bradely is just a horse's ass.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Franceur has been worse. Chris Young isn't doing my fantasy team any favors, either.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Vitters with another 0-fer tonight.
I don't think he has a hit since the Trib labeled him "the real deal" several days ago -- his average has dropped about 30 points since then.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Good thing we still have that hot-hitting righty bench bat around to help us solve lefties...
Oh, wait...
Can we send Miles to the DL again yet?
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
the outfielders tonight went 1 for 11 plus 1 walk. seems like grumbling about the bench becomes immaterial.
was hoping lou would have kosuke run for bradley and let hoff-power hit for johnson. kosuke looked as though he had been awakened from a sound sleep to pinch-hit.
doubly aggravating to waste a no-antics gem from z. those are rare enough that pissing one away just plain hurts.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
I miss Jim Edmonds and his big, looping swing.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
yeah kosuke made lou look smart on that at bat
they can say what they want lou may give fox 2 games at dh
i see him giving poor hitting and poor defensively soriano
some dh spots and then you have one dh game for lee and hey what about bradley.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Can someone translate? I sense a good point here, but for the life of me I cannot parse this out.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
He said, "robble robble robble," then he said, "wha-whaaa-whaa-wa-whaaaa," then he finished of with, "dierka dierka dierka, muhammad jihad."
The first one is either Hamburgler or Grimace. Then the Charlie Brown teacher. Then the spies from Team America
In English: "Lou will DH Soriano for a couple games and Lee the other. Maybe Bradley will DH a game."
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
when it comes to beating the cubs
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
I seem to remember, maybe last year (I hope you are okay with commas), when we hit him pretty hard. This team's approach at the plate is a ghost of last year's.
Last year our little Cubby team was 3rd in MLB in OPS. This year, so far, about 12th or so.
Miles did look good in the field, though. I have to admit. If only he had Soriano's bat.
Oh, whoops! What an awful thing to say.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Could Miles even lift Soriano's bat?? Lol..I kid...
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Good news of the night the Brewers lost so still 2.5 games out...bad news of the night the Cards and Reds both won so we are in 4th place again.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Anyone else curious why the Goozer got the call tonite?
Actually, at the time, I was really pleased with the decision.
Silly me.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Because he's been really good?
I think he was working on a 12 1/3 scoreless streak until that game.
This game isn't on Guzman, this game is on more of the same, an absolute inability to score runs.
Hopefully we can win the series vs Russ Oritz(!) tomorrow. If we can't plate a couple against Russ Ortiz I really have to wonder about the heart of this team.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Well yes, the reason that I was really pleased with the decision was because, as you point out, Guzman has indeed been really good.
I guess what I was curious about was Lou deciding it evidently is time to try alternatives to Marmol and Gregg.
And it still didn't work!!! I hope that he takes a big bottle of valium with him on road trips...
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Pitching Guzman was the right thing to do there, it just didn't work out. Sometimes that happens. Had we scored more than one run in 9 innings, it may have ended differently.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
This team is a waste of $140 million dollars. How can this offense be so bad?
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Just because you paid $35K for your Geo Metro doesn't make it a luxury car ... even if you call it a Geo Soto.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Yeah, I long for the days when we could go into Houston and score 7 runs. What were those days called again? Oh yeah, they were called 'Tuesday'.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
F*** that, it was Brian f***ing Moehler. Of course the Cubs scored 7 runs. That doesn't prove anything.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Rodriguez has a 2.15 ERA at home this year. The last time Moehler faced us he beat us, holding us to three runs in 5 innings. Wait a second... breaking news... This just in! The Cubs are not going to score 4 runs in every game for the rest of the season!
You can flip out every time we lose a game, and call all the players horseshit, but it's not going to ,you know, do anything.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Nothing heals a tough loss like busting TRN's balls.
Seriously, though, I know they aren't going to score a bunch of runs every day, and yes Wandy 'Who the f*** is Wandy?' Rodriguez has been
good decent this year. He has good home stats, and why not? Two of his 7 home starts have been against an anemic Cub's offense.
The thing is... every time the Cubs have been presented with a challenge this year, they've just rolled over. They don't grind. They don't make the opposing pitcher work. They're lost.
I know, I know, Aramis this Aramis that... but they need to find ways to win without Aramis. What if they somehow make it to the playoffs but Aramis has a bad series?
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
And another thing, Milton Bradley is pressing like no one I've ever seen. The swings he's putting on the ball are insane. He needs to just make some contact.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
I use foxsports.com because they give the players OPS in the box scores, but just about any site that focuses on US sports will have it.
Take a look at this link and tell me what the Cubs' record has been over the last 10 games.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Blah... 6-4. That has nothing to do with what we're talking about. If I'm an NL team, I don't fear the Cubs at all right now. Just throw your s*** in the dirt and they'll swing.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Yeah, they might win 6 of 10 during some stretches, but they also might lose 8 in a row too, a 10-game window is not all that telling.
Ryno's point that they aren't scoring runs is right on. Sure, they scored 7 the other day, but here is the breakdown of runs scored per game:
Before Ramirez Injury: 4.80
Since the Injury: 3.90
Since the Start of the May 19th Road Trip: 3.15
It's been a struggle.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
If you win 60% of your games, you will win 97 games. If the Cubs won 97 games, they would make the playoffs.
Amazingly, they are winning with a lot of players underperforming. If you really think that Bradley will finish the year with an OPS 130 points lower than his career numbers, or that ARam won't come back and play, then sure, go ahead and freak out every time the Cubs lose.
You are becoming manny...
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Yesterday it said 7-3. :)
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
It's going to take about 90 wins this year to win division.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Rodriguez has been good decent this year.
Wandy Rodriguez currently has an ERA+ of 149.
He is 7th in the league in ERA. 8th in the league in strikeouts. 10th in HR/9. 8th in ERA+.
That is just decent? He has been one of the top 10 starters in the NL this year.
Re: Miles Activated; Fox Trots to Iowa
Fine, but it's Wandy Rodriguez. He won't finish the season with those numbers.
Re: Bradley's swing...
If only we had someone to keep Lou up to date on these things. Maybe send Miles down, call up one of the kids from A ball to show the skipper how to check player stats on ESPN.com?
Re: Bradley's swing...
What the fuck does Alan Trammell do all game? Tell dirty jokes and fetch Lou seeds?
Re: If only we had someone to keep Lou up to date
Apparently Alan Trammell doesn't think it's his job.
Re: If only we had someone to keep Lou up to date
Or, we may wonder what else Lou wouldn't know if Trammel weren't there!!
Re: Bradley's swing...
As a sarcastic person myself, Lou's statement doesn't sound particularly serious to me.
Re: Bradley's swing...
That last bit is SO Dusty Bakerish. A Dustyism, if you will.
Re: Yeah...
Dismal. Shows how lights out the starting pitching has been considering we're still 2 games above .500.
Re: Yeah...
It's those bottom numbers that are really killing us, and with the pressing caused by the offensive woes, I think it's becoming a it's own problem.
Re: Yeah...
o come on, small sample size, right?
are you certain those charts were not printed upside-down?
Re: Yeah...
SORIANO with RISP

Re: Yeah...
Crunch rebuttal in 5, 4, 3...
Mitch Williams is an Idiot
He was ESPN 1000 and kept saying "Cubs need better pitching" along with the hitting.
Better pitching?
What do you want shutouts every game? Your mullet must have sucked out any brains you had left.
Recent comments
That would be Rice Krispy Treat
"Crunch's cousin"
Butterfinger or Baby Ruth?
I saw the first three innings and the last three, so I didn't see Arrieta get hit. His stuff looked nasty at first...what happened? Any insight from anyone who watched?
That question came from CRUNCH's cousin.
He's definitely one of the best
Jeff Sullivan of Fangraphs on Lester:
Question: Do you think that Lester's base-throwing yips/lack of the ability to hold runners is a big deal? He's had a long, successful career despite this, mainly due to being good a run prevention, but it did hurt that one time vs. KC in the playoffs. Should Cubs fans be making a bigger deal out of it, or is it just not that big of a deal?
Miggy seemed remarkably unhappy for a guy who just won the game. Probably related to the fact that he never plays any more.
Yeah, that was the official scoring.
Classic ending, about 12:11 AM, CST. 5 hours, 3 minutes. Both teams have bases loaded, no out situations in the last inning.
Magic #19.
Last man on the bench, Montero gets it done.
This fucking game
Baez lucky to not have hurt his hand with headfirst slide on play at plate in 12th inning.
Maddon's master plan to challenge his offense to improve on coming from behind late in games is working amazingly.
Everyone remember Starlin Castro dropping or misplaying just about every ball near second base that involved a tag?
Javier Baez is the opposite of that.
on the wild pitch thing, did they really call that a wild pitch on Jansen that Heyward scored on Friday? If so, I don't know what a passed ball is anymore.
Let's see -- up 3-0, at home, Jake on the mound annnnd....compare and contrast 2015 to 2016. Bleh.
Hopefully, the Pirates will uncork a series of 9th inning wild pitches.

@BNightengale: Former #MLB pitcher Dan Haren will be throwing to Tim Tebow tomorrow during his tryout in LA, he announced.

@ithrow88 Oh and memo to my agent, @bvanwagenen: Pitching to Tim Tebow tomorrow DOES NOT count as getting me a real job offer.

There is air conditioning in all dorms except for the castle. All dorms and the castle areally in amazing condition and are well kept
Campus Housing:
The dorms are alright, it honestly depends on where you are put. For instance, If you live in Heinz, you will not have air conditioning. I was lucky to live in Kistler Hall, and according to all upperclassmen it is the best hall to live in. Supposedly, inside of each hall are lounges with vending machines, furniture, and televisions.
Campus Housing:
The housing can be either really dirty or really clean. The rooms are a little small, but they're doable.
Campus Housing:
Each residence hall will provide a different living experience, but all in all they aren't bad.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
The dorms for first-year students are small, and due to large amounts of new students, sometimes the dorms have three people to a room. Most of the dorms are attached to the dining hall, except for Heinz, the newest building. Once students reach upperclassman status, they can move into suite-style living in Knight Hall on campus or in apartments right next to campus. Housing is guaranteed, and some students choose to live off campus in other apartments other than the ones Arcadia owns. Heinz is probably the nicest dorm. Most of the other dorms do not have carpeting and are a little older. On the other hand, Knight Hall is another good option, with large suites and a kitchen area on every floor. The Oak Summit and Manor Apartments are nice if you prefer apartment-style living and don't mind a several-minute walk to campus.

Category: Pressure Relief Mattresses & Pads-
The pressure pad and pump is working well for my mother in PT rehab. When she starts to hurt during PT she rests for 10 minutes and her pain reduces to tolerable. It is keeping her from developing pressure hot spots on her spine also.
Overall: Yes, I would recommend this product.
I had already purchased one about 3 weeks ago which has helped my mother's bed sores improve. I ordered another one because my mother has a full side & two will cover nicely
Pros:The pressure pad really helps to eliminate more bed sores from developing. It is worth the investment
Cons:Wish the pad came full size so I didn't have to buy 2
Overall: Yes, I would recommend this product.

Froch: Ward is a Horrible Fight, Rather Face Kessler
Carl Froch says he would be happy to make it a trilogy of fights against Mikkel Kessler - but he's not so sure his rival is keen to do it all again.
Froch evened the scores against the Dane, who was the first man to ever get the better of the Nottingham fighter in the professional ranks, with a unanimous points triumph at the O2 Arena last Saturday.
'The Cobra' feels he's four more major fights in him before he hangs up his gloves - and a third instalment against Kessler could be one of those.
Froch also wants a chance at redemption against Andre Ward, the only other man to beat him, even if the American is a "spoiler" in the ring.
"If Mikkel Kessler and I fought again it would be a similar fight - a 50-50 fight that could go either way," he said in an interview on Sky Sports News HD.
"I'd like to think I'd win it again if we had a rematch but you just never know. It's one each now, so maybe the decider is on the horizon.
"Everyone who came to that fight wants to see it again, while the people who weren't there feel like they've missed out, so they'd come back for a third one.
"I'm not sure if Mikkel Kessler wants to come back for a third one, but his style of fighting and my style of fighting are made for a great fight.
"I'd rather fight someone like him than Andre Ward, because Andre Ward is a spoiler and a 'messer', he tricks his way through a fight and gets the win. It's not very entertaining and it's a horrible fight to be involved in.
"With Mikkel Kessler I know I'm going to get someone who is going to turn up in front of me and try and win and try and give me a fight. That's the short of fight I'd like to be involved in."
Ward has said he would face Froch again, but is keen for the Brit to travel across to American soil for the rematch of their 2011 bout that the former won on points.
"He's got a bit big for his boots recently - he's calling all the shots," Froch said Ward. "He's got to realise I'm WBA and IBF champion, if he wants the titles then come and win them off me.
"The rematch is the only realistic one for me to secure my legacy, because he's the only other one to have a win over me."
[QUOTE=Dominicano Soy;13435543]"Ward is a spoiler, messer, he tricks his way through a fight and gets the win" Translation, "Ward is too versatile, well schooled in close, too physical, too good defensively and he's very tricky as well. I'd rather face…Comment by Weebler I on 05-31-2013

Froch can't beat Ward and he knows it -- would risk getting punished and probably stopped by a more aggressive, determined and angry Ward -- and who wants to see another Froch-Kessler fight? -- I mean, we're not talking Ali/Frazier…Comment by bravestone on 05-31-2013
What's amazing to me is that Froch has a greater resume than Ward. Who'd have thunk?!Comment by IronDanHamza on 05-31-2013

Teachers have new contract
Salary/benefits up 5.9%.
Local teachers will soon see more money trickling into their paychecks.
Salary and benefit negotiations between the Gothenburg Education Association and District 20 school board members were nearing November when an agreement was finally signed on Oct. 28.
Pay for new teachers has reached the $30,000 level for the first time.
Superintendent Mike Teahon said new teachers will receive $30,075 in base pay—a 2.6% increase—compared to $29,300 for the 2008-09 school year.
For all certified teachers, both salary and benefits went up 5.9%.
Last year's increase was 5.7%.
Teachers employed for more than a year in the district will be compensated according to their position on the pay scale based on years in the district and education beyond a bachelor's degree.
Yearly contracts begin Sept. 1 but because the agreement was signed nearly two months later, Teahon said teachers will be paid the difference through a special payroll for September and October.
Teahon described the agreement as competitive in the array of schools to which salary and benefits are compared, noting that the schools are similar in size and location.
Another change in the agreement deals with insurance.
A $350 deductible now in effect will change to $600 on Jan. 1, Teahon said.
GEA chief negotiator Mary Meisinger has said that 2009-10 negotiations have taken longer than any deliberations in which she's been involved.
Meisinger has served on GEA's negotiation team for the past 15 years and has taught in the district 21 years.
She and GEA president Maggie Tiller declined to comment on the agreement.
Administrators received a salary/benefit increase of 4.99% while non-certified staff got a 5.8% raise last August.

It would be handy to allow a list of templates to be passed into a generic view, and then use the select_template function to find the first one retrievable. This way customized templates can be used in some instances, but it can always fall back to the "django default" for items that are not set.

Ok, bug fixed now. The only "assumption" it makes is that if the value of a template being passed in is a single character, it isn't a valid template. This catches the instance where a plain string is passed in (as has always been the behavior in the past) and it's accessed character-by-character as a list. It also does the same check when an error is raised to ensure the template it was looking for is displayed correctly.

- Needs documentation set
- Triage Stage changed from Unreviewed to Design decision needed
comment:5 Changed 8 years ago by lukeplant
- Resolution set to wontfix
- Status changed from new to closed
- This makes select_template() rather crufty to handle a change in API of a completely different function -- really not nice.
- When calling a generic view, I imagine that normally you know what template you want to use.
- There is already a mechanism for 'shadowing' templates by using template directories appropriately.
- You can work around this without patching Django by doing some kind of 'select_template' call before hand and working out which template is returned, then specifying that one.
So, I'm closing WONTFIX

Bangkok, Thailand -- Wat Po temple in Bangkok is better known for the huge reclining Buddha statue, which attracts millions of tourists each year. Some also quietly walk into the air-conditioned massage clinic inside the monastery premises to try out an "authentic" Thai massage wondering what has the temple and Buddhism got to do with massage?
Bangkok, Thailand -- On the opening night of the 2016 Sustainable Brands conference, the venerable Phra Anil Sakya, buddhist monk and professor at Mahamakut Buddhist University, took to the stage. He came to share an important reminder with a group of sustainability professionals who were quite literally wiggling in their seats waiting for the networking happy hour to begin. Moderation should rule all our actions, Dr. Phra said. He pointed to capitalism as the root of our problem:
The Pope isn't the only holy figure reaching the masses in cyberspace.San Francisco, CA (USA) -- With the help of Paul Ekman, a psychologist who consulted on the 2015 Pixar film "Inside Out," and the data visualization firm Stamen Design, the Dalai Lama has launched a new website meant to give people a map for understanding their feelings.
Sydney, Australia -- Mindfulness has recently surged in popularity, but its modern application has ancient Buddhist roots. Lynne Malcolm and Olivia Willis find out what long-term meditators and neuroscientists can learn from each other.
While you may not remember life as a toddler, you most likely believe that your selfhood then - your essential being - was intrinsically the same as it is today.
Vancouver, BC (Canada) -- Buddhists, though, suggest that this is just an illusion - a philosophy that's increasingly supported by scientific research.

Louise Weber, nicknamed La Goulue (the glutton), is depicted in the Moulin Rouge—a Montmartre cabaret frequented by the Parisian demimonde—flanked by her sister to her right and, to her left, her lover. Toulouse-Lautrec made many paintings of Weber, a star performer known for her appetite. Throughout his work he portrayed unconventional individuals in an audacious manner both frank and sympathetic. The shallow space, bold cropping, and heavy, form-flattening outlines reflect the pictorial devices of Japanese woodblock prints and the work of Edgar Degas, which Toulouse–Lautrec greatly admired. The artist considered this work to be the best of his dance-hall paintings and exhibited it four times the year it was completed.
La Goulue (The Glutton), born Louise Weber, was an ambitious country laundress who became famous dancing the cancan. Nicknamed for her insatiable appetite for both life and food, she aggressively courted fame, dancing in transparent muslin knickers, posing topless in publicity photos, and cultivating a reputation for bawdiness. Her costume consisted of a low-cut gown, a much-copied hairstyle, and a black ribbon choker. Her look was so distinctive that in Lautrec's most famous images of her, he did not even need to show her from the front. These images reveal his debt to Japanese ukiyo-e woodcuts, in which subjects are often identified by gestures, hairstyles, or accessories rather than a traditional likeness.

The latest on parkingJuly 15,2014
The latest on parking
Montpeliers parking situation remains contentious, as evidenced by recent letters to The Times Argus. Most writers suggest more parking but in different, competing locations.
Why not take a page from Montpellier, France, where cars are banned from the inner city and the streets are lined with bustling outdoor cafes? Instead of buying or building another expensive in-town parking site and installing new smart meters, why not buy a small fleet of nice jitneys and have people park on the outskirts, at selected sites, and ride into town for a small fee, say a quarter or so?
Opponents of such a plan say it would hurt business, but that hasnt been the case in Montpellier. Theres no good reason why our streets should be clogged with emission-producing vehicles in which frustrated drivers circle and circle looking for parking spots.

An example
|Steve's client, Jane, keeps talking to Steve about wanting to retire early, but isn't sure if her portfolio assets, and income sources will be enough to fund the lifestyle she wants to have in retirement!
Steve knows that Jane would benefit greatly from being shown all of the details of what her finances would look like based upon the choices she makes for retirement.
Steve decides to buy her a $400 voucher for B L Garbens Associates Inc. for Christmas. He logs onto www.blgarbens.com/gift and buys 1 voucher. His credit card details are processed securely, and he receives an immediate email confirming his order.
B L Garbens Associates Inc. mails the gift voucher to Jane with a personalized note from Steve:
Jane calls B L Garbens Associates Inc. and begins the financial planning process.
Jane's final invoice comes to $1695 ($1,500 + HST). But because she has the $400 voucher, it is reduced to only $1295.

Voting Kurds shed tears of joy-Erbil Kurdistan
Voting Kurds shed tears of joy-Erbil
By Jackie Spinner, The Washington Post
Kurdistan region 'Iraq', — Adnan Ismael raced to the back of the
campaign bus carrying supporters of the Kurdistan
Democratic Party and frantically pulled aside a dark
blue curtain so he could see out.
Hundreds of honking cars were following behind in an
impromptu rolling celebration late Thursday
afternoon through this ancient city. Passengers hung
out of vehicles, shouting and waving the yellow flag
of the KDP and the red, white and green flag of the
Kurdish semiautonomous region here in northern Iraq.
Ismael turned from the window, a stunned look on his
Inside the bus, a group of aging, bewhiskered former
guerrilla fighters struck up an old revolutionary
song. Their eyes brimmed with tears as they sang in
husky voices: ``Our flag is waving high in the sky.
We are still alive. The Kurds are alive. There is no
cannon that will break our will.''
``We were dreaming for this day to come,'' said
Ismael, the KDP leader for Erbil's Tajil district,
who darted back and forth to get a look at the scene
unfolding on every side of the bus. ``Now we will
all choose our representatives for the future. Every
Kurd wishes to see this day.''
On the last official day for campaigning before
Sunday's national elections, candidates and their
supporters here in the Kurds' administrative capital
blasted old Kurdish songs from loudspeakers at party
headquarters, waved to passing cars from plastic
chairs lined up on sidewalks and raced through the
streets in caravans with flying banners. Unlike in
many parts of Iraq, where fears of insurgent
violence and doubts about the political process have
muted voter enthusiasm, there was nothing tempered
about the elections here, where voters will help
select members of a new National Assembly, choose
regional councils and pick a Kurdish parliament.
Throughout Erbil, there was a sense that something
big was about to happen, as if the whole city had
turned out for a wedding party.
``I am very happy,'' said Faruq Nabil, 24, a laborer
with thick black hair and green eyes. ``Since I was
born, this is the first time I will go and elect the
government. I want to thank Mr. George W. Bush for
his efforts in making this happen.''
Sarbaz Qader, who owns a small bicycle repair shop,
said he was overwhelmed with joy. ``I will vote, and
I am not afraid of anyone, whoever he is,'' Qader
Iraqi Kurds, who were by turns persecuted, displaced
and massacred during the rule of Saddam Hussein,
widely see the vote on Sunday as the end of an era
in which they were shut out of national politics. To
prevent Kurdish factions from splitting the vote and
losing out on seats in the new 275-member National
Assembly, the Kurdistan Democratic Party and the
Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, the Kurds' two
predominant parties and historical rivals, joined
with other political groups in the region to form a
unified slate of candidates.
``We believe that for the whole of Iraq, all parts
of Kurdistan should be presented as one body,'' said
Salahadin Babaker, a board member of the Kurdistan
Islamic Union.
Nevertheless, the political atmosphere in Erbil was
palpably partisan, in large part, party leaders
said, because the various parties will be battling
one another in the regional elections. The bulk of
the Kurdish population identifies - on the basis of
geography or ancestry - with either the KDP or the
Both parties have increased their handouts in the
months leading up to the election. The KDP said it
gives free cooking gas to the unemployed and has
increased its payouts to widowers, martyrs and the
disabled from about $60 to $200.
Raqeeb Shekhan, who is in charge of payments for the
city's Tajil district, spent most of Thursday
acknowledging waves from passing motorists with a
nod of his head.
``We waited for this a long time,'' he said, his
head wrapped in a traditional headdress. ``We've
ached for this freedom. We want to be like the rest
of the world.''

Agrarian Legal Services
One of the Major Final Outputs of DAR is the Agrarian Legal Services (ALS). This is complemented with two programs, namely: agrarian legal assistance (ALA) under the Bureau of Agrarian Legal Assistance (BALA) and adjudication of agrarian cases under the Department of Agrarian Reform Adjudication Board (DARAB).
Under RA 6657, DAR is vested with the primary jurisdiction to determine and adjudicate reform matters and to extend free legal assistance to farmer-beneficiaries affected by agrarian cases. The delivery of agrarian justice has two features: the Adjudication of Cases and Agrarian Legal Assistance.
Agrarian legal assistance is comprised of resolution of agrarian law implementation (ALI) cases, ARB representation before judicial and quasi-judicial bodies, and mediation and conciliation. On the other hand, Adjudication of Cases involves the resolution of cases by the DAR Adjudication Board (DARAB) and any of its salas.
There are three types of cases under this program namely: judicial or court cases, quasi-judicial, and cases related to agrarian law implementation (ALI). The first two types involve representation of farmers by DAR lawyers before the regular courts and DAR Adjudication Board, respectively. The third type involves the administrative rendering of decision on exemption, conversion and retention.
The DAR at present utilizes more aggressive alternative dispute resolution techniques in mediation to reduce conflicts maturing into court cases. The general objective is to persuade the contending parties to settle their disputes amicably or out of court before the DAR.
ALS is divided into two (2) components: Legal Advisory and Enforcement.
Legal Advisory involves legal services provided to agrarian reform beneficiaries (ARB) and landowner clients such as mediation and representation in judicial and quasi judicial courts. As per measurement for the agency's final scorecards on this MFO, clients who rate the legal service as good or better and requests for legal services which are responded to within 15 days are included.
Enforcement, on the other hand, includes: agrarian cases acted upon for adjudication or resolution; and resolution of annual Agrarian Law Implementation (ALI) caseloads. Adjudication within 3 months of agrarian related cases is assessed under this MFO.
Strategic Directives on ALS:
Adjudication of Agrarian Cases
- Speed up the resolution of DARAB cases through weekly deliberation of cases, effective utilization of cases templates for DARAB and prioritizing cases like flashpoint cases, LAD-related cases, land valuation cases, cases subject of compromise agreement/withdrawal of appeal/dismissible for lack of jurisdiction and motion for reconsideration;
- Implementation of Adjudicator's Performance Evaluation System (Score Card) per MC No. 01 series of 2013;
- Provision of support to Land Tenure Improvement component by ensuring completeness of cases folders involving EP/CLOA cancellation and other CARP-related issued time;
- Full operationalization and utilization of Legal Case Monitoring System (LCMS);
- Revision/amendments of DARAB Rules and Procedures to effectively guide the DAR adjudicators in various legal activities while relosolving cases;
- Formuation of Policy/systems & legal framework to institutionalize arrangements on lease rental deposits in the cunstody of adjudicators and other matters; and
- Aggressive utilization of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) Scheme in resolving DARAB cases.
Agrarian Legal Assistance
- Prioritize LAD-related, ageing, flashpoint cases, and big areas in the disposition and resolution of Agrarian Reform (AR) cases;
- Utilize Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) to reduced conflicts growing into court cases;
- Strengthen linkages between the Legal, DARAB, Operation groups to avoid recurrence of legal problems on LAD;
- Undertake PBD lawyering to ensure ARB's free and informed consent on agribusiness agreements and their acquisition of profits out of land based contracts;
- Develop common working templates and legal outlines;
- Improve capabilities of DAR lawyer and legal officer;
- Tap information, communication technology (ICT) to enhance legal work on;
- Strengthen the legal team to enhance support to operations;
- Enhancement of Legal framework;
- Full operationalization of Legal Case Monitoring Systems; and
- Continuous update of the Legal Monitoring System.

Roach: Refreshed Miguel Cotto Has "A Good Future"
By Keith Idec
Miguel Cotto is 32 and has lost back-to-back fights for the first time in his 12-year pro career.
His new trainer realizes those realities will put the Puerto Rican star in a situation Saturday night in which he needs to defeat Delvin Rodriguez very impressively.
"We are in a must-win situation for sure," Freddie Roach, who'll work Cotto's corner for the first time Saturday night in Orlando, Fla., said on a recent conference call. "That's why we are working so hard and we are working well together. … We are working real hard and we know what the situation is."
If Cotto can beat Rodriguez the way the odds suggest, the former three-division world champion will position himself for another big fight at 154 pounds. Cotto wouldn't discuss potential fights against Saul "Canelo" Alvarez or anyone else, but Roach has seen enough from Cotto during their first training camp together that he believes Cotto still can compete at an elite level, despite consecutive 12-round, unanimous-decision losses to Floyd Mayweather Jr. (45-0, 26 KOs) and Austin Trout (26-1, 14 KOs).
"There is a good future [for Cotto] and that's why we are working so hard to win this fight," Roach said. "We know we are in a must-win situation, but a win here will put us in position for a lot of good things. I want Miguel to win a world title again and I look forward to being a part of that."
Cotto, who hasn't fought in 10 months, feels refreshed after his first full training camp with Roach at the trainer's famed Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood, Calif.
"We have had a great training camp," Cotto said. "We are committed to doing so good and to look amazing in the fight. We are working together to get the best out of me."
The junior middleweight bout between Cotto (37-4, 30 KOs) and Rodriguez (28-6-3, 16 KOs), of Danbury, Conn., will be broadcast by HBO from Amway Center in Orlando. The three-fight telecast, scheduled to start at 9:45 p.m. ET/PT, also will include live coverage of a 10-round lightweight bout between Terence Crawford (21-0, 16 KOs), of Omaha, Neb., and Russia's Andrey Klimov (16-0, 8 KOs) and taped footage of a heavyweight championship unification fight from Moscow that'll match Ukraine's Wladimir Klitschko (60-3, 51 KOs) against Russia's Alexander Povetkin (26-0, 18 KOs).

DUI / DWI Attorney
Did they file your case in State or Federal court? It can make a difference what options you have.
DUI / DWI Attorney
You have some great issues for trial. You need to speak to a local experienced DWI attorney. Call around and retain an attorney if you are able prior to your first appearance. Ask the attorney if they believe the office has reasonable suspicion to ever pull you over. If so, you need to attack the lack of probable cause to arrest for DWI. Sounds like you have a good case. Good luck!

It's probably a stupid question but i just can't get it to work and I also cannot find the answer anywhere.
I have a custom post type called 'projecten' with 3 morefields, 2 textline's and one chekbox.
The textboxes are working great, people can enter the text they want to appear in de 'project'.
I loop the featured image and in the left top of the div there is an picture that is absolute positioned and 80px width, it's an stamp to say the project is new.
Above that i have a black box where people can fill in something through the morefields.
Now what i want to happen is that when people check the checkbox 'nieuw' on the project page that the black box move 80px to the left so the 'new' stamp will appear.
i have this code now:
<?php if (get_post_meta($post->ID, 'new-project-check', true) ) : ?>
<style type="text/css">
.extracontent-block .stamp{
left: 80px;
<?php endif; ?>
but that doesn't seem to work.
Sorry for the long question I'm building the site on my localhost so i cant just send you an link to the site.

Skip to comments.Anne Frank has been posthumously baptized (Mormon)
Posted on 02/21/2012 3:11:31 PM PST by colorcountry
By HELEN RADKEY
Tuesday, February 21, 2012
SALT LAKE CITY - Annelies Marie "Anne" Frank, (June 12, 1929 March 1945), one of the most renowned Jewish victims of the Holocaust, was posthumously baptized in a Mormon temple, on Saturday, February 18, 2012, under her full name, "Annelies Marie Frank." Mormons have submitted versions of Anne Frank's name at least a dozen times for proxy rites. She has been posthumously baptized in Mormon temples, at least nine times from 1989-1999, and now again in 2012.
Anne Frank's latest baptism was performed in the Santo Domingo Dominican Republic (LDS) Temple. Frank was confirmed a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints by proxy, in the same Mormon temple, also on February, 18, 2012. She would have been confirmed a Mormon by proxy, after each of her prior baptisms.
The discovery of the latest proxy baptism for Anne Frank comes on the heels of the recent posthumous baptisms of Simon Wiesenthal's parents, and the inclusion of the names of the famous living Holocaust survivor, Elie Wiesel, and several deceased members of his family, in New FamilySearch, the religious database used for proxy ordinance submissions.
Rosa (Rapp) Wiesenthal, the mother of well-known Holocaust survivor and Nazi-hunter, Simon Wiesenthal, was a Jewish Holocaust victim. Rosa (Rapp) Wiesenthal was baptized by proxy in the Bountiful Utah (LDS) Temple, on January 21, 2012. Shlomo Wiesel, the father of Elie Wiesel, was a Jewish Holocaust victim whose name was submitted for proxy baptism.
Anne Frank was an unmarried teenager when she died. She left no descendants. Mormons are supposed to submit only the names of their ancestors. It is against Mormon church rules to submit the names of Jewish Holocaust victims, unless the submitter has direct family ties to the deceased. The security of the names submissions process for posthumous rites must be questioned, in view of the rash of prominent Jewish Holocaust names that have recently appeared on Mormon temple rolls.

These guys make Scientology seem sane.
That sounds creepy to me but I'm not expert on the Mormon religion. Maybe someone can explain.
They're not going to stop doing this kind of thing.
They just don't respect the beliefs of others, yet, demand that others bow to theirs.
Meaningless mumbo-jumbo.
big whoop. as if it matters to anyone alive.
How many times have the Mormons said they were going to quit doing this sort of thing?
I thought they promised they weren't going to dead dunk anymore.
Knock it off you nutjob mormen!
Will these Mormons quit doing that? How dare they assume for one minute ... as in I Corinthians 15:29, "Otherwise, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why then are they baptized for them?" ... the culture of Mormonism is truly despicable. I do hope that Mitty gets nominated, it will bring out the horror of Mormonism and how totally non-Christian they are. If nothing else it might hopefully bring about the destruction of this anti-Christian cult.
It is not possible to go to the highest level of celestial being unless you are mormon, so they dead baptism people to give them a second chance after death. They have even performed this "ceremony" for their jesus and his wives.
It was only a week ago that the LDS Church issued the promise that this dead-dunking of Jews would no longer happen unless their own descendants did the Temple ordinances on their behalf. Anne Frank died without having descendants.
So much for the promises of the LDS Church.
They've been busy with baptisms lately...
In the name of the dead Jews I just unbaptized her. There, Mittens can KMA.
I bought a star named for my step-father's deceased son. It was neato, cool, boss and groovy.
This is different. The LDS has said they will not perform these ceremonies in deference to the wishes of the Jewish people. Obviously the Mormons have no respect for the wishes of the Jews.
Mormons are spitting on the graves of the Jewish holocaust victims.
Mormon authors Alan F. Keele and Douglas F. Tobler, in "The Führer's New Clothes," wrote,
"Hitler enjoyed at least as much popularity among German Mormons
as he did among the population in general. His apparent dynamism and self-confidence seemed
to show a way out of the chaos and weakness of the Weimar years...
Some Church members even saw Hitler as God's instrument,
preparing the world for the millennium." The Borks, above,
were among thousands of Mormon families who sent their sons
to fight for the Reich. The vital importance of "Aryan" ancestry
gave new significance to genealogical research, the writers
added in their Sunstone article. "And the Führer himself,
the non-smoking, non-drinking vegetarian who yielded
to no one in his desire for absolute law and order, seemed
to embody many of the most basic LDS virtues."
It was clear, the authors emphasized, that the Church's priority
was to maintain its strength and continue to make converts under the Third Reich.
It actually launched a public relations campaign to reassure
Germany of its fealty. Indeed, an article written for a special issue
of the Nazi Party organ Der Volkische Beobachter by the LDS Mission President
to West Germany, Alfred C. Rees, "abounds in such loaded terms as Volk
and Rasse (race), and a picture of Brigham Young bears the caption,
'Führer der historischen Mormonenpioniere.' Very disturbing
is the way President Rees blatantly parallels Mormonism with
Nazism Mormonism sounds like a fulfillment of Nazi teachings."
LDS Temple Ordinance records indicate that Adolf Hitler was
"baptized" and "endowed" on December 10, 1993, and "sealed"
to his parents on March 12, 1994. These events took place
in the London Temple, in England. Hitler was "sealed" to Eva Braun
on September 28, 1993, in the Jordan River Temple, Utah, and
on June 14, 1994, in the Los Angeles Temple. According to the
Church, these names -- and the names of other high-ranking
Nazi officials and of Mussolini -- have been removed from the registry.
The issue of Mormons posthumously baptizing Jewish people into the
Church continues to resurface regularly.
There appears to have been considerable support for Hitler
within the Mormon cult.... and even substantial collaboration."
I had a housemate (back in college) that was into the New Age crap. She was an older gal, and was talking about how she, with her "dream guide" had entered my dreams.
I think it is mostly stupid, but there have been times where I've seen similar weird stuff that I believe. To be on the safe side I told her "Don't you EVER go into my dreams again."
I would treat these Mormon's converting the dead thing the same way. What is that verse in the Bible, about being at war not with earthly things but with spirits? And while it seems clear that Smith just made it up, I think that Satan is just fine with using whatever a man can think up and use it for his own ends.
Of course I guess when one is dead you are either with God or you aren't - and no amount of praying (or voodoo rituals, etc.) is going to change that. "Let the dead take care of their own."
Baptism for the dead is usually performed by Mormon youths between the ages of twelve and eighteen. Dressed in white clothes, the youth enters the baptismal font and stands upright. Using his (her) left hand, he (she) grasps his (her) own right wrist, and uses the fingers of the right hand to hold the nose shut while being immersed. The person performing the baptism stands at the left side of the youth and grasps the youths right hand with his left hand. He then raises his right arm to an angle of ninety degrees ands repeats the baptismal prayer. Following the prayer, he places his right hand on the youths back and supports him (her) during immersion, raising the youth quickly out of the water to an upright position again, when the ceremony is repeated several more times on behalf of other deceased persons.
Brother _______, having been commissioned of Jesus Christ, I baptize you, for and in behalf of _______, who is dead, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.
Following baptism, the deceased must be confirmed a member of the Mormon Church. This ceremony does not have to be performed by the same proxy by the baptism, and usually isnt. The proxy sits in a chair, and two Mormon Elders place their hands on the proxys head, and repeat the following, for each deceased person.
Brother _______, in the name of Jesus Christ, we lay our hands upon your head, for and in behalf of _______, who is dead, and confirm you a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and say unto you, Receive the Holy Ghost. Amen.
This ceremony restores temple blessings lost through excommunication or by ones name having been removed from the records of the Church.
Brother _______, in the name of Jesus Christ, we lay our hands upon your head [for and in behalf of _______, who is dead], and confirm you a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and say unto you, Receive the Holy Ghost, and confirm upon you all your former Church and Temple blessings. Amen.
This ceremony gives the Priesthood to the deceased.
Brother _______, having authority, we lay our hands upon your head, and confer upon you the Melchizedek Priesthood and ordain you an Elder in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, for and in behalf of _______, who is dead, and seal upon you every grace, gift and authority appertaining to this office in the Holy Melchizedek Priesthood, for and in his behalf, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
Pretty dam% presumtuous if you ask me.
Nach A Mool ...
It's a pretty safe bet that none of the Bork family members in the photo or their descendants still live in Stettin.
What a sleazy thing to do. I can tell you that I sure don't want any of my heirs who get involved with this insanity to posthumously baptize me. This seems like low level gutter stuff trying to claim people of other faiths without their consent.
I am going to be sick. Yet, thanks for posting.
I learned of a "Church" where they had the revelation that EVERYTHING Jesus Christ said was mistranslated, and the opposite is really the truth. I kid you not! I can't think of the name...Broderhous?
Jews should fight back by circumcising dead Mormons.
Mormons are followers of the "law." They staunchly believe in keeping the "Sabbath" Holy, but their sabbath is on Sunday. There are foods, coffee and tea they are forbidden from partaking .... and all the Mormon men in my life are already circumcised.
Perhaps we could add the Mormon dead to the list of German Nazi's and see how they like it....maybe include a nice picture for posterity sake.
Why would we want 'em?
It's funny that, despite so much Jew-hatred, everyone tries to use Jewish scripture and theology to justify their own religions.
OK,riddle me this
According to mormon apologists - this just gives them an opportunity to accept mormonism in the afterlife.
Yet according to the article, they are marked down on church rolls as being a 'confirmed' member.
Sounds like no 'choice' involved - or am I missing something.
Seventy times seven times.
How does a spirit accept the Holy Ghost?
Did you spy on me through the peep hole in the outhouse?
Interesting picture. It looks like the guy in the chair has a skunk tail.
"Its funny that, despite so much Jew-hatred"
Friend, it's humor by absurdity. If you really think I advocate digging up dead mormoms for a bris ceremony, it's time for an oil change in your humor engine.
****She was an older gal, and was talking about how she, with her dream guide had entered my dreams.***
Years ago, RIPLEY'S BELIEVE IT OR NOT had a cartoon about an African tribal queen who forbade her subjects from appearing in her dreams, under pain of death!
What blasphemy for a good Jewish girl.
We have a winner: "Jews should fight back by circumcising dead Mormons."
and with the Apostle Paul, I'll add,
"As for those agitators, I wish they would go the whole way and emasculate themselves!"
Galatians 5:12
Ok; but how do they know they got the right one? The ONLY one??
How on earth do they know if they've gotten the RIGHT Jimmy Carter??
A MORMON can't even 'explain'!
What they do in their Temples is found NOWHERE in ANY of their so called 'scripture'.
