Rangers Run Past Yankees?
Whether or not his team actually beats the New York Yankees, I have to start this by standing up and applauding Ron Washington's primary gamble.
Versus All Minnesota LHP 11-39 .282 two 2B, two 3BVersus Fuentes & Mijares 1-7 .143Versus Duensing & Liriano 10-32 .313
Admittedly it's a small sample (two starts and five relief appearances) but there are some indicators. Though Marcus Thames tattooed Brian Duensing for a home run, none of the Yankee Seven hit a long ball off any of the lefties, even though Posada, Rodriguez, Swisher, and Teixeira all batted righty against them.

The reason why the Twins lost the series is because they managed only two hits with RISP during the sweep and both came in Game 3. You can steal as much as you like but you still need a hit to drive them in.
As for CJ Wilson, he's going to have to prove he can throw strikes since he had 93 BB in 204 IP. I certainly don't think if the Rangers will win in 6. The only pitching edge they have is when Lee pitches.
It isn't so much that Wilson is a good LHP, it's that he's murder on LHB. His 400 OPS against vs. LHB was first in the majors (40 IP minimum), and he didn't allow a HR. The rub here is that the guys who were 2nd and 3rd were Brian Duensing and Francisco Liriano. The Yankees pounded Duensing and handled Liriano just fine. Kevin Long has done tremendous work with the Yanks on their lefty vs. lefty approach, particularly with Curtis Granderson, so this feels a little bit like the immovable object versus the irresistible force. I like Wilson a lot, but it will be interesting to see if the Yanks have an answer here.
It is also worth pointing out that Lee has a reverse differential; he was actually stronger against RHB this year than versus LHB. He was slightly better against LHB from 2007-2009, but he isn't a "lefty-killer" like Wilson is.
Didn't Granderson get a big hit off a lefty? Not a home run, sure, but it was a key hit. Another thing I noticed was how Dan Johnson, who was horrible in the regular season (especially against lefties), was able to draw some walks and then come up with a big hit, all against lefties. I remember it because I was surprised Joe Maddon didn't replace Johnson with a pinch-hitter. I believe Carlos Pena also got a key hit in Texas off a lefty, and Pena had the lowest batting average in the majors (for those qualify for the batting title, or its sad opposite) and was especially bad against lefties. Also, too much is being made of the Rangers' running game. Look at the Rays: Carl Crawford is the best base stealer in the league but he didn't do much damage– because he was kept off the bases. What Andrus, Cruz and Vlad did in Game 5 was largely due to bad decision-making and execution by the Rays' defense. The Yankees have great defensive instincts and don't panic. I can't imagine Tex letting a baserunner score from second on a groundball to first. If the Yankees lose I see it coming from a bad start from one of their top three pitchers, coupled with two Lee wins and maybe a blown save by Mo in a tight one. Objectively speaking, this series is just to decide who loses to Philly anyway. But– Go Yanks!

This week's restaurant reviews
In this week's Newsday, Joan Reminick rediscovers Maria's Mexican & Latin Cuisine in Nesconset which, after 10 years, has reasserted itself with creative, vibrant food. The menu draws from Mexican, Cuban, Central and South American influences and, says co-owner Maria Mones, "we're always looking for new recipes."
Peter Gianotti visits two wine bars. Bin 56, under new management in Huntington, offers a downtown vibe, a communal table and a respectable menu. Highlights include grilled endive, spicy-sweet chicken wings; fish tacos; spring rolls; fig-Brie-prosciutto crostini and cevapi, or Croatian-style grilled ground meat. If you're looking to try excellent Croatian wines, Bin 56 is your destination.
Molto Vino, "recently uncorked" in Babylon is "a stylish and tight storefront, situated next to Solo Vino, its wine-shop parent." Chiantis are among the versatile selections, which tend toward Italian and American bottles. "To go with your red or white: a modest selection of panini and salads, cured meats and cheeses."

Model's mystery: Police response faulted in motel death
25 comments
The Police did their job. We can all feel said about this womans fall from grace but the fact of the matter is she succuumbed to her fate by her own behavior. She should have stayed away from Hicks. His reputaion is well known. Don't put her personal failings on a Police department that did its job. If someone has evidence then bring it forward. The police do not have an obligation to delve into speculation without some sort of evidence.
If someobody knows something then speak up. Otherwise let it go.
The best way to honor her is to not repeat her mistakes.
I disagree. This case clearly warranted a complete investigation and deserves an apology to the family. Mistakes were made and it is unfortunate that it may take a lawsuit to find justice.
If the Police had throughly done an investigation, notified Mr. Pignatelli, and Her Daughter, they would not be facing this criticism. Dismissing someones death as "her own behavior" is not only cruel and insensitive, its not how our legal system works. Contributing to the death of another, or actually inflicting harm that may be operant in the death of another are crimes , felonies in fact. Suppose it was your friend, your daughter, or your mother? Would you be content to believe the Police did a good investigation and follow up? Not notifying ANY concern person or family member? Chief Longo, our PD can do better than that...
...bill has never let thought stand in the way of his callous remarks. People die under unusual circumstances all the time. I think we should make sure they were just "unusual circumstances" and not anything criminal. Everyone deserves at least that treatment, eh bill?
This could be the beginning of a new trend. The last thing law enforcement in this area needs is another unsolved murder on their hands. After all, this is right across the street from the John Paul Jones arena. Plus they don't have a very good batting average for homicide clearance rates in a 50 mile radius already.
Gasbag Give them some credit, maybe it's only when the dead people are women that it doesnt matter.
First of all, she was not a "supermodel." That term is reserved--strictly reserved--for that top stratus of model who have reached both the modeling pinnacle and pop culture identity zenith. Examples include Twiggy, Cheryl Tiegs, Cindy Crawford, and that skinny-legged blonde who was married to that pug lookalike Billy Joel. Carol Alt is disputably a supermodel, but that is an argument long conducted in the Frightening Fred Norris arena of model judging. Carol Alt is abhorred when not called a "supermodel."
Now, that we have that settled, I suppose the police likely made some quick judgments and, in retrospect, some mistakes. There is lazy police work and aggressive police work. I am not sure what is going on with CPD; has Longo lost his mojo? There is a shelf life to chiefs, you know (except in Hazzard County and Darby, Pennsylvania). But we have the matter of the West Main Wheelchair Debacle; the mismanagement (more by his bosses than him) of the Occupy silliness, the DNA swabbing a few years back, and this (plus probably more incidents I forgot about).
This lady was a pitiful case of a downward spiral, and I do not agree that the "system abandoned her during her downfall." There are tons of safety nets out there. The same people who complain about the system failing do not remember the liberal floodgates opening 40 years ago when we decided not to institutionalize people, not to commit them unless they "are a clear danger to themselves or someone else." She was free to walk out of any place in which she was admitted. However, when she died, she deserved a bit more investigation to make sure justice was served and, at least, a bit more aggressive police work to ID her and notify next of kin way more quickly. I feel sorry for the lady's family and the lost potential in her early death.
R.I.P.: Jaco Pastorius
Liberalace is right, Linda Doig was in no way ever a "super" model. She was a model. A working model. Maybe even a glamorous model. But not a supermodel. Other notable supermodels besides the one Liberalace mentioned, to give people a better idea, included Linda Evangelista, Christy Turlington, Naomi Campbell, Christie Brinkley, Gia Carangi, Claudia Schiffer, Elle Macpherson and Kate Moss.
From Wiki: "The term supermodel refers to a highly-paid fashion model who usually has a worldwide reputation and often a background in haute couture and commercial modeling. The term became prominent in the popular culture of the 1980s.[12] Supermodels usually work for top fashion designers and labels. They have multi-million dollar contracts, endorsements and campaigns. They have branded themselves as household names and worldwide recognition is associated with their modeling careers.[13][14][15][16] They have been on the covers of various magazines. Claudia Schiffer stated, "In order to become a supermodel one must be on all the covers all over the world at the same time so that people can recognise the girls."[17][18]" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermodel
Emphasis on "branded" "household name" "worldwide recognition" "multi million dollar contracts" and "on all the [magazine] covers all over the world at the same time."
Linda Doig was nowhere even close to that level, and when you look at the Wikipedia page of the history of supermodels her name doesn't appear in the many names listed throughout the decades. But, calling her "super model" is guaranteed to generate more clicks on the story then if the Hook just referred to her as a former model, or even glamorous former model.
Actually, at the time, she was an instantly recognized face in most countries, just not America, although if you showed many people her pictures, they'd recognize the person.
when did not notifying the next of kin become proper protocol?
Seems odd that someone would climb totally into the tub before drawing bath water. I guess she could have gotten in to turn on the shower and slumped down before actually turning on the water for a shower. The guy never heard the water come on for hours and hours and never checked on her. But a law suit against a guy with no money, no insurance, and you would have to prove he killed her... or to show gross negligence against the police nor just small negligence. How many law firms would take this on and put their time into it with little possibility of any pay out. Bryan Slaughter did the Fireman's estate vs. the UVA student basically pro bono, but liability here is much less clear than that.
Those of you debating whether or not she was ever a "super model" seriously need to get a life!
Let's face it, the cops are human beings. They probably had dozens of encounters with this woman, and were well aware of her downward spiral. I suspect they eventually find such folks dead all the time. I think they could have done a much better job contacting her daughter, but Pignatelli? It's somehow the cops' job now to contact all ex boyfriends?? Really?
The coroner has said that she died as a result of years of complications brought about by alcohol and drug abuse, right? So the rest of this sounds like just conspiracy theories, unless new info comes out.
And let's not pin a medal on Pignatelli just yet. We don't know how their relationship ended all those years ago, but let's face it. Rich playboys don't tend to stay with their model girlfriends once they start looking - gasp - like they might be 30 or something! If she had stayed with him all these years, then her life probably would have turned out differently. I'm guessing her dumped her, while of course I don't know.
It's also interesting how the father of her child has been specifically deleted from any discussion here in the Hook. Never mentioned once, as if her daughter came from the stork or something.
Another case of a one-time celebrity behaving badly, on a downward spiral, which ultimately resulted in her demise.
She had repeated injuries and she herself always attributed them to falls. Alcoholics do fall, and can seriously hurt themselves, that is reality. There is no evidence, at least anything stated in this article, that her injuries were the result of physical abuse by another person. If medical professionals felt that her injuries were inconsistent with a fall, and suspected abuse, they are obligated to report it.
Family and friends may not want to admit that she was on a path of self-destruction, but that is a fact. They may be feeling remorseful that they didn't try to intervene sooner or more aggressively, or even survivor guilt, but substance abusers usually can't be rescued until they are ready to be saved. It doesn't sound like she was ready quite yet. Trying to lay blame for this tragedy will not help the grieving and healing processes. The police can at most, be faulted for not notifying family members on a more timely basis, but they certainly are not responsible for her death. And if the ME has determined that the cause of death was other than homicide, the police are not required to investigate it as such.
Her loved ones should try to focus on the goodness in her, find comfort in the successes that she once had, and let her rest in peace.
Stop getting sidetracked with whether or not the word "supermodel" applies to this woman. Who cares?
How about addressing the extremely curious way this was handled by the police. We're expected to believe that not notifying next of kin is standard protocol?? Not finding out who the room was registered to and contacting that person = standard protocol?? Not questioning neighboring room occupants when someone turns up dead in a hotel room = standard protocol?? Scary, if so.
The "supermodel" reference IS important. Try asking Fred "The King of Mars" Norris or Carol Alt if this distinction is important. Here is why it is critical:
1. Ms. Doig spent her life keeping herself in shape, for good or bad, to be photogenic. Her downward spiral could well have originated as her looks (youth) decreased. Had she been a true supermodel, she would have had the cinematic, pop culture and media world to fall back on, to work more years not in modeling but in media (as a well known former supermodel can do). Look at Cindy Crawford and her longevity!
2. Girls in this country need to be taught that, whether you're in modeling or big time TV journalism, you have a shelf life. Then you're put out to pasture. If you have a bankroll to bring out to pasture with you, it puts you in better shape. Being a true "supermodel" gives you a better chance of having that financial cushion.
3. Models who worked so hard to become supermodels--like the previously mentioned roster--would roll over in their career-graves if they heard someone like Linda being called a supermodel. Don't you posters have any concern for their egos??!
4. People like Fred Norris have spent years refining the differences between a professional model and a super model. It is no different that the difference between John Hiller and Mickey Lolich. A Big Difference!
5. Once someone has passed, we cannot bring them back. But we can certainly honor their legacy by placing them on the correct rung of the modeling world ladder!
And Sean, the cops are indeed human beings. But so is my plumber; I expect that, when I am exposed to his crack as he is under my sink, that the treatment he gives my pipes will be better than, say, the treatment my milkman would give my pipes.
BTW, what do you all think of Johnny Weir getting married?
R.I.P.: Frank Sindone
Broken ribs are not uncommon in chronic alcoholics. Constant falls over the years of drinking combined with malnourished bones/body can lead to living with multiple broken ribs.
The point is, if you've checked the other articles, she told someone that he had done it. So it wasn't a fall.
And who cares if she was or wasn't defined as a supermodel? Even in her older years she has great self-esteem, and was a quiet person, and ALL of this is in the other articles. She had had scrapes with alcoholism, but in the months before she met Carry, who pushed her to, she had quit drinking, and as a recovering alcoholic, it was really hard.
You can live with broken ribs for quite a while. You can get beaten up multiple times by your abusive live-in boyfriend and not die. These are all reasons that the body was sent to Richmond for an autopsy.. just because she got beaten up 2 weeks prior to drinking herself into an alcoholic coma doesn't make Mr. Wonderful a murderer.
I am an adult child of an alcoholic. My mother was a beautiful young lady. She turned to alcohol later in life and went on a downward spiral. Early on, we blamed everyone around her for her failures, loss of custody of children, car wrecks, fights with love interests, and bad judgement of company. Hospitalized over 15 times, we never gave up hope and always believed she was going to quit drinking and go back to who she was. She never did. It's a disease. It's not someone else's fault. I put her in and out of my house, she lived with others, she was homeless, I would get calls from strangers telling me she was on the street, hotels would call and ask for credit card information, I mean I could write a book of these types of situations. NOTHING could fix it. This was a classy woman, my mother, who just went to hell in a handbasket, over booze. I will never understand it. It's tragic that Linda is dead so early in her life, but no one could help her, just like my mother. But, I am mad at the disease that robbed me of my mother at 59 years old. But, there is a lot more to this story than is being posted/printed and it deserves to be reported more accurately rather than assertions by a few disgruntled friends or family members. The assertions by Pignatelli and the daughter are emotional ones. It's a part of denial to blame others and to project. It's understandable. But what they think happened is exactly that and speculation. Ashley was under someone else's custody. How do you lose custody of a child? By being unfit. That happened prior to her knowing Carey Hicks. He didn't even know her until 2009-ish and I know this personally. As a matter of course, I know a lot of additional information, first-hand, not speculation, that I could impart but I will refrain because I want this comment posted. Just because Pignatelli has a few bucks in the bank and runs a successful company does not make him the judge and jury here. Also, the fact that Carey Hicks has a temper or a record stands as a result of his own battles with alcohol. Linda was not the pillar she once was either.. no homeless alcoholics are and you should expect recklessness, unexpected behavior from them. They are mentally ill and have nothing to lose and just really act out of character - it's part of the disease that they both had/have.
@ Liberalace
You strike again. :D I hope people realize that while what you're saying is true and valid, there's a hefty dose of tongue-in-cheek sarcasm going on as well. (humor doesn't seem to register with many of the people who post here I've come to realize....you kind of have to explain it to them.)
That aside, on a more serious note, regarding this: "Her downward spiral could well have originated as her looks (youth) decreased." It seems clear from what I've been reading in the Hook's coverage of this story that Linda's downward spiral can be traced to a back injury she sustained after falling from her roof while doing repairs.
It's the story of many people's lives actually - an unexpected injury, or a lifelong build up of work-related injuries, that then lead to addiction and dependence on pain killers or alcohol to get by. That's why people shouldn't judge Linda's situation. It truly could happen to any of us, and if we're lucky enough that our bodies are pain and injury-free, then we really should be take a moment every day to have some gratitude for that.
I hope this town gets a clue. Hawes is still wearing Duckheads.
What is wrong with you people?? Whether she was a super modle or not is beside the point.
She was Ashleys mother and somebodys daughter.
And what is wrong with CPD that they wouldnt investigate this as a crime? How many times were the police called for domestic disputes between Doig and Hicks? The bruises, the fact that she was dead and the history of domestic abuse should have warranted treating it like a crime scene. It's apparent they dismissed it based on her social status.
Obviously detective Reeves doesn't have any children of her own or she would be more sympathetic to the daughters loss of her mother. And shame on Detective Reeves for not returning any of the dauhters phone calls. How heartless can you be? The daughter is looking for answers so she can finally get some closure.
Come on CPD do your job and stop acting like everybody is beneath you!!!!
It's not a complete Hook article complete w/comments, unless S Jones comes over and babbles incoherently about this.
James, I like the way you think:)..one day he will, and when he does, he will get a huge surprise. If and when he has the audacity. Promise, if he don't mention my name, I won't mention his..(copyright my ass). Little does he know, I'm not the only one who sees his "true colors" now. His little plan didn't work for him as much as he thought it would. 5000+ emails and 15+ people is more than enough proof. Try shuttin that up! Those that prefer to think I am "crazier" then he is, keep on thinking that..I have more than enough proof to state otherwise. His threats are empty to me. Come on SJones, you have alienated, threatened and provoked, among many more things, everyone else, now try me! Be the last time you tell a mentally ill person to "go kill themselves". You forget, mentally ill, has not a thing to do with intellect. Frankly I think many of these people would like to know how you "really" feel about them, and how you "really" obtain information. Go ahead, try it. How many of these sites, and yes, to include this one right here, you did indeed hack into to find IP's of people that post to them, maybe they would like to have this proof as well. I'm game... are you? This is but a very small message to SJones, people are tired of you and your kind. You are irrelevant, your so called evidence, is useless, and you are pathetic. You are no more important that anyone else here. Get over yourself, stop being an online nuisance/predator. We are so over you! None of this is threats, it is promises, none of this is slander its the truth, you should understand atleast that for someone who supposedly swears that is all you ever wanted, well you got it, and everyone else will have it as well if they so do desire to have it. Slowly but surely your damage is unraveling, the friendships you have damaged, will indeed come back together, the mess you made, cleaned up, you will be nothing more than a memory, a very bad one of course. And Morgans case will resume on the path it should have been on to begin with without your disastrous interference. Personally every last one of these individuals would have every right to come after you, but that would need to be their choice, that one isnt mine to make. I have come forward, I wish they would, but that's not up to me. I refuse to hide behind your useless threats regardless who you know. I only regret it took me 9 months to realize just how deep the damage you have done was. To see exactly how many you hurt, that you revealed personally to me through your own words and emails. Well I see it now, and unlike most, I will do something about it. I'm not afraid of you and as far as I'm concerned, according to the laws here, I among many others here have no reason to be. This probably won't be printed, if it is, I would be pretty surprised, but regardless I've said what I needed too. I'm done with you.
As far as this topic goes, I have to agree with those that feel this was not investigated properly, a persons drug use, history of illnesses, should not be a determining factor when it comes to a suspicious death such as Linda's. I truly feel for her family, I wish both my condolences and prayers to them. I'm done here.
A whole lot of chatter so the facts seem to be clouded.
Fact: Public Record: Doig had a Protective Order served against Hicks....He was with Doig when she died. That is merit, alone, to perform a full investigation.
Fact: Doig was hospitalized for her "condition" before she lived at Lee Park; who knew she was being discharged and why didn't they secure her safe haven?
Fact: There's a whole lot of finger pointing but not a lot of ownership of responsibility and accountability. The Police Department should NOT close this case. Doig deserves that; she was a woman; a human being for God's sake. No matter if you are a grocery bagger, an attorney, a doctor or a former model....no matter your station in life.
What is going on with our society?? Really, seriously....seriously?

What Does the State Department Not Want Us to Know about Honduras?
Senator Jim DeMint from South Carolina recently traveled to Honduras and found—no surprise—a peaceful country and broad support for the ouster of President Zelaya among members of civil society, the supreme court, political parties and others. In an op‐ed in this weekend's Wall Street Journal, DeMint describes his trip in light of Washington's continuing support of Zelaya and its condemnation of what it calls a "coup." U.S. policy is mystifying since the ousted president's removal from office was a rare example in Latin America of an institutional defense of democracy as envisioned by the constitution and interpreted by the Supreme Court that ruled that the president be removed. (For independent opinions on the case, see here and here.)
However, the Senator reports a legal analysis at the State Department prepared by its top lawyer that apparently has informed Washington's policy but that has not been made public nor even released to DeMint despite his repeated requests. In the interest of democracy and transparency, the State Department should immediately release its legal report. Maybe then we (which includes much of the hemisphere) will be less mystified about what is driving Washington policy toward Honduras. Or at least we'll have a better insight on the administration's understanding of democracy.

Finance Minister Mathias Cormann has warned that if the government's proposed budget spending cuts are not passed, "the only alternative to balance the books is to increase taxes".
And ahead of Parliament resuming on Tuesday, Education Minister Christopher Pyne has suggested universities could face a "worst case" scenario of funding cuts without sector reforms if the Senate does not pass his proposed higher education reforms.
The comments from both cabinet ministers are designed to step up pressure on Labor, the Greens and the crossbench to back the government's contentious budget savings and come ahead of Monday's cabinet meeting, which will focus on budget strategy.
Senator Cormann told the ABC's Insiders program there was "no rush to deal with specific structural reforms", such as the university funding changes, because many of these changes did not begin until July 2015 or later.
"We have laid out our plan to reduce the unsustainable spending growth trajectory Labor left behind," he said.
"Essentially, if we stay on a spending growth trajectory that takes us to 26.5 per cent of the share of GDP when tax revenue on average over the last 20 years was 22.4 per cent of the GDP and [if] you don't want to balance the books by reducing spending, the only alternative to balance the books is to increase taxes."
In a challenge to the Opposition Leader, Senator Cormann said: "What is Bill Shorten's plan? Is he planning to increase taxes in order to make up for Labor's unsustainable spending growth trajectory?
"Our plan is in the budget. We delivered a budget in May which presents our plan to put the budget back on a believable path back to surplus and we are now working in an orderly and methodical fashion to implement that plan through the Parliament."
In an interview on the Ten Network's Bolt Report, Mr Pyne said months of talks with the Senate crossbench had led him to believe the "momentum is with the reforms" and that "I'm making great progress".
"I know it sounds probably like hype over reality, but I believe the momentum is with the reforms in government with the higher education. I believe most of them will pass."
Mr Pyne said that without reform, Australian universities would "slide into mediocrity" and that "rather than presiding over the slow decline of the manufacturing sector, I'll be presiding over the slow decline of the higher education sector.
"I don't want that to happen."
Mr Pyne said a Fairfax Media report that the federal government will examine slashing billions of dollars worth of research funding from universities if Parliament blocks its changes was "highly speculative" – but then effectively confirmed such a step could be taken as he declined three opportunities to rule it out.
"I don't know where it came from but I think the piece was suggesting that if the Commonwealth grant scheme doesn't cut, doesn't go ahead, the only area the government can reduce spending is in areas like research," he said.
"Well, that's not our plan. Our plan is to see our budget pass."
"The worst-case scenario is cuts without reform. And I think the university sector gets that."
The Education Minister criticised university student protesters – some of whom repeatedly tried and failed to burn an effigy of him last week – arguing the government simply wanted them to pay 50 per cent of their education costs. Students currently pay for 40 per cent of the cost of their course.
"We're hardly asking for the world," Mr Pyne said.
"They really don't have the kinds of problems that they are protesting about that deserve the burning of effigies. We're asking to pay 50 per cent of the cost of their education. We're not asking for their left kidney to be donated," he said.

Normally all sorts of awkward things come up in my mind when I think of zebra prints in interiors. We've seen them done so wrong and they're usually associated with this gaudy, overdone sort of decorating with tassels and fabric wrapped picture frames, gold chandeliers...but after I recently spotted this in Ikea's blog I sort of had a different feelings. Maybe zebra print doesn't have to be so bad? Possibly with the right styling it can work?
I'll leave this open ended...what are your thoughts?

I think this gorgeous artwork breaks the curse of the tacky zebra. Maybe it's best to just stay away from rugs!ReplyDelete
By the bye, what is the link for the IKEA blog you mentioned? I didn't know they had an official one.ReplyDelete
I really like it as an artwork (as in it's a real zebra), I'm personally not sure about it as a print on it's own!ReplyDelete
So I had this picture long time ago and I loved it!!! Looks great!!! Enjoy your weekend!!!!ReplyDelete
I love it and I usually HATE zebra print. I think this works because:ReplyDelete
a.) it is an actual zebra
b.) it is a piece of art work not some tacky rug bedspread
c.) the over all understated look
c.) the mini zebra below it adds a bit of extra charm.
This debate should be a good one!
I normally can't stand the whole zebra thing, but this print is lovely!ReplyDelete
as most of the readers are saying i think it looks good because is an actual print of a zebra and not just a pattern! that is probably making the whole difference! i like it here very much! and how can we resist the little zebra as well? ;)ReplyDelete
I think it is such a gorgeous piece to hang on a wall- especially in a understated room. The reason zebra print is probably associated with gaudy is because it is usually used in rooms with crazy prints and colours, but what i love about that photographs is that the room is simple and that artwork is the key feature.ReplyDelete

Moment of silence marks 6 months since Newtown
NEWTOWN — Newtown has marked the passage of six months since the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School with a moment of silence.
The sisters of slain teacher Victoria Soto asked for a 26-second moment of silence at the ceremony Friday to honor the 20 children and six adults killed at the school on Dec. 14.
A lone gunman carried out the massacre after killing his mother inside their Newtown home, and he committed suicide as police arrived.
The remembrance event in Newtown is doubling as a call to action on gun control. Elected officials and families of the victims have gathered for the reading of thousands of names of gun violence victims at an event that is expected to take 12 hours.

Roach 'infestation' closes restaurant, inspectors say
Red or Green Restaurant Report: Oct. 29, 2012
A restaurant gets more customer complaints just weeks after a red sticker at an Albuquerque restaurant.
After someone reported seeing roaches at Ortega's Restaurant, inspectors from Albuquerque Environmental Health Department checked it out and substantiated the complaint.
Inspectors said they also found pinto beans not heated and cooled properly.
Just a few weeks ago, Ortega's got a red sticker because of similar complaints about roaches, and the Health Department ordered bimonthly pest control service.
After the latest incident, inspectors ordered the restaurant to close due to what they called an "infestation."
"A part of it I think is that we're in an old, old building. This has been a restaurant for 52 years.
What happened is, they closed us down, and we took advantage of the time and made the changes that we needed to make," owner Rudy Ortega said.
Ortega also said his restaurant has had loyal customers for decades.
"We invite the public to come check us out. We've come out a better stronger restaurant," Ortega said.
After another pest control service, inspectors returned and gave the restaurant a green sticker. Otrega's in now open for business.

on a ledge
One of the things I already miss about being in Denmark & Sweden are the old, deep window ledges in the homes and buildings. I can squeeze a couple small things on ours, but it's just not the same.
I made this concrete pyramid last year & keep forgetting to write up a DIY tutorial for it. Maybe someday I'll get around to it...

Great still shot. The pyramid is beautiful, love the rustic grey colour. If you have a tutorial, I would love to read it!ReplyDelete
Funny how you talk about those deep sills. I live in The Netherlands, and we have average deep window sills I guess, but I always have dreamed about the idea I have in my head of American window sills, thinking they are deep and filled with pillows, so you can sit in them and dream away with a book. And ofcourse there is a porch as well, outside. A porch with a swinging couch.
Gosh. I want to live in that house in my head :D
Isn't it funny...it's those little details that give us so much satisfaction. :)ReplyDelete

I agree! I live in Australia and it's so rare to find beautiful deep window ledges here. I dream of having a deep window ledge above a radiator (another elusive item in Australian homes) and filling it with pot plants and lovely things. Maybe if I move to Sweden....ReplyDelete

You may have noticed a few weeks back that I posted the two (2) year history of Downtown Bellevue Condo pricing. I thought it was an interesting chart when considering the turbulence in our economy since 2007.
In light of comparison, I thought it would be useful to evaluate the Seattle Chart as well.
Here is a basic breakdown on what the chart is showing us:
Median price in December of 2008 was approximately $349,000 per unit
Now, that same unit has a median price of approximately $272,000!
In December of 2008, inventory was at about 1,765 units, dropping as low as 1,625 during the momentum of the tax credit extension, peaking at 2,438 in late July 2010, and now sits at about 2,175 condos on the market. As you will notice, the inventory in August 2010 started to move down & that will continue through the holiday season. I'm anxious to see what this chart looks like in March of 2011.

'Double Indemnity' plays nationwide on the big screen
Just this morning, I finished reading "The Long Embrace: Raymond Chandler and the Woman He Loved" (Pantheon Books, 2007) by Judith Freeman. It's a look at Chandler's work and his 30-year marriage to a mysterious woman named Cissy Hurlburt Porcher Pascal, a sexy but refined redhead from the Midwest who was 18 years his senior. (It was her third marriage; his first and only.) Not that she bothered to tell him her real age, natch. Details, details …
In the book, Freeman describes a turning point in Chandler's career: When he received the offer from Paramount Studios to adapt James M. Cain's novel "Double Indemnity" for the big screen, working in partnership with writer/director Billy Wilder.
The film, starring Fred Mac Murray, Barbara Stanwyck and Edward G. Robinson, was released in 1944. It earned seven Oscar noms, including screenplay, which was extremely rare for a film noir title.
Freeman writes:
"Ray didn't get the idea of the whole thing at first. When Joe Sistrom, the producer, called and offered him the job, Ray said he could probably do it, but he wouldn't be able to turn in the screenplay for a couple of weeks, and it would cost them a thousand bucks. Sistrom laughed. Was the guy being funny, or was he really that naïve about the way the movie business worked? Sistrom told him he'd be working with Wilder, in an office on the studio lot, that he'd have ten weeks to do the screenplay, and he'd be getting seven hundred and fifty bucks a week. Ray did the math. Ray liked the result. Ray saw the future … and Ray said, Yes. Sure. Why not?"
Precisely! So, why not treat yourself to a big-screen viewing of this genre-defining film? TCM, Fathom Events and Universal Pictures Home Entertainment are partnering to bring this classic to select cinemas nationwide on Sunday, July 19 and Monday, July 20.
"That tears it," as Walter Neff would say.
See you there, noiristas. Meanwhile, you can read our review as well as 14 reasons we adore this flick.

If recent reports are correct Apple is gearing up to release a new model of iPhone with a larger 4in display and Apple leaked the iPhone 5 information to news sources itself.
Apple's approach is going to be to maintain the current screen width, but increase the height. This will give the screen more retail estate in portrait mode (enough for an additional four icons on the Home screen). It will also make games and movies look much more impressive when the iPhone is held in landscape mode.
See also: iPhone 5 to have 8-pin dock connector, enhanced Bluetooth 4.0 features.
Want to know what that's going to look like? We've mocked up a new iPhone 5 display based on the new reported dimensions and applied it to one of the best mock-up renders around. Here's what the new iPhone will kind-of look like:
Pretty impressive stuff. Having an additional four icons on display makes the whole iPhone a lot busier. But with most users installing additional apps, and creating multiple folders, on an almost daily basis this will make organisation a little easier.
And here's the Home Screen in flat mode displaying all the icons:
So how's this going to work for current apps? Our understanding is that developers have a couple of options. They can redesign apps for the new display size (which is made easier by having the one dimension changing rather than both). They can also use a new iOS 6 development feature called Aut Layout which enables them to pin screen buttons and so on to layout positions on the screen, these will then move according to the device they are being used on.
Apps that aren't optimized for the new iPhone 5 display will potentially have black borders at the top/bottom (or left-right in landscape mode) and run just as before.

Suspect Arrested in National Robbery Case (Sep 14, 2012)
MUSKOGEE, Okla. (AP) - A Florida man arrested after a nationwide search for the ``Bucket List Bandit'' has been ordered held in an Oklahoma jail.
Michael Eugene Brewster appeared before a federal magistrate in Muskogee on Friday on a robbery charge filed in Pennsylvania.
The FBI says a man dubbed the Bucket List Bandit hit 10 banks in nine states, and told some tellers he had only a few months to live.
Prosecutors said Friday they didn't know if the 54-year old's story was true, and a public defender wouldn't comment. Brewster did cough a couple of times during the brief court hearing in Muskogee, Okla.
The FBI said the bandit hit banks in Colorado, Arizona, Idaho, Utah, North Carolina, Tennessee, Illinois, Missouri and Pennsylvania.

Library wanker gets off on Alford plea
The man accused of publicly masturbating in Clemons Library, Anthony Daniel Landram, pled guilty to charges of obscene sexual display at the Albemarle General District Court June 7. The defendant took an Alford plea, acknowledging that the prosecutor had enough evidence to convict him without technically admitting guilt.
University police arrested 28 year-old Landram on April 21 after two UVA students and a library employee found him masturbating to pornography on a laptop on the fourth floor of Clemons Library. Judge William Barkley sentenced Landram to a 90-day suspended sentence pending two years good behavior. Landram is prohibited from further contact with UVA, excepting legitimate medical need.Read more on: Anthony Landrammasturbation

Did they say Anthony Weiner? Both have that same "you looking at me" look.
Very good Carlos "Gets Off" in the "Head"line
I can hardly wait until somebody says, "What? No jail time?"
I don't have a problem with the outcome of this trial.
If people think the guy who reached up a girl's skirt and sexually assaulted her shouldn't serve any jail time, why should this guy?
Frankly, going through this whole experience and having his photo all over the news is probably punishment enough.
True. And stop calling me Frankly! :)
Gasbag Self Ordained Expert Have you ever seen a grown man naked?
Is this a trick question?
You obviously know the answer is yes. Naked women too.
So, go ahead and slap me with the punch line.
Gasbag Self Ordained Expert The Movie Airplane strike a bell?
Ahh, now I get it!
Gasbag, tell your ol man to drag Walton an Lanier up n down da court for 48 min
First off, taking an Alford Plea, is not "getting off" as you so eloquently put it. My understanding if you get off for commiting a crime, you are not convicted and do not receive punishment, i.e a "sentence". It will still be on his record and he has a "90-day suspended sentence pending two years good behavior" (which he deserves). This is just another inaccurate hack job, just to cram some sexual innuendo into a headline. How can you keep letting this crap pass for news?
That's a sweet headline.
There are never fewer than two dozen students of both sexes "sexting" at the library at any given time. This is known and permitted. This fellow was arrested because of the way he looks. It was obvious what he was doing for over an hour, but until a female student walked over to "check him out" and saw his face, his behavior was allowed.
OK- what is wrong with what he is accused of doing? The Weiner evidently has done it in the "Library" of Congress?
Actually, "the weiner" has evidently performed this act on himself as well as the citizens (not illegal alien citizens) of this nation for far too long..................
I am sure every law maker would welcome the opportunity to legalize what this person was accused of doing so that they would be able to "carry out the will of the People".
Hey, quit making fun of The Weiner Man....for Dems, it's a resume builder.
Yeah, "Weinergate" was obviously a Dem scandal because he was sending the pics to women....
It wasn't a scandal until he lied about it...........her certainly is contributing to the pornification of the youth of this Country, and that is not part of his job description.

Jay Sean Talks New Album, Reveals First Single Features Pitbull – Exclusive
Jay Sean might've been missing from the music scene for a while, but all of that is about to change with his forthcoming album. Although Jay Sean didn't reveal the name of his upcoming LP — that has an "R&B feel" while maintaining the "energetic, feel-good" sound his fans have grown to love – he did however sit down with ClevverMusic to dish some details on the new project, which the 'Down' singer is extremely excited about.
During his interview with ClevverMusic, Jay Sean talked about the legal troubles he encountered while trying to release his album 'Freeze Time,' which he has since "scrapped" and reworked entirely. "Let me tell you what happened. 'Freeze Time,' I cursed myself with it cause it got frozen in time and didn't come out," Jay Sean explained. "So guess what? I've changed the name… I'm over 'Freeze Time.' The album that's coming out, which is done, finito and coming out in a few months, is one million times better than anything I've ever done."
That energetic, feel-good sound that Jay talked about earlier is present on his first single off of the album, a collaboration with Pitbull called 'I'm All Yours.' "I just always want to keep current and make sure that I'm giving my fans the best and the hottest while it's hot," Jay said of his collabo with Mr. 305. "[Pitbull] runs the Top 40 charts, he kills the club, so for me it made sense. A lot of people put on the same shows at the same time because we have a shared fan base. They like my hits and they like his hits and they love to here it all in one go again."
"It's super high energy, but romantic," Jay said of 'I'm All Yours,' his upcoming single. "It's not the traditional "throw your hands up in the sky," "pop bottles"…. It's none of that stuff. I mean, it's been done a million times, there's only so many ways. It's a romantic song, but it's got that high energy. We just shot the video in Miami. It was absolutely incredible."
Check out what else Jay Sean had to say about his upcoming projects in his exclusive chat with ClevverMusic.

Create a Route and send to Strava Mobile App for navigation
Hi Strava, I'm not sure if this have previously been discussed but its a feature upgrade that personally I would find very helpful.
I've recently noticed that one of your competitors has the ability to create a route on their webpage on a PC and then send this route to the iPhone app. I can then ride the route using the map displayed with the route shown and my current position using the iPhone's GPS facility.
Quite often I plan a route before a ride but have to stop to check a map app. I know your app has the option of displaying the map and the route you have already ridden but have you considered/ is it possible for a predetermined route to be displayed?
Many thanks

Telecom Mergers on the Upswing
By David Sims, TMCnet Contributing Editor
A new study from the Boston Consulting Group finds that alliances among telecommunications firms are bucking a long downward trend, predicting that in coming years corporate alliances, particularly among telecommunications, will make a "comeback."
One does not need to look too hard for examples to corroborate this finding:
Yesterday Mobiltek Corporation announced that it has restructured the company, and is now a "global wireless and value-added service telecommunications provider" with three operating subsidiaries. The company also entered into an alliance with SSI-Affinity, a Michigan CLEC and Mobile 10, a music and mobile entertainment company.
With the new alliances, Mobiltek will remain committed to its strategy of becoming a leader for China in the wireless value-added products and services market. China has about 358 million wireless users and is expected to increase wireless users at a rate of more than 17% per year and Mobiltek figured allying themselves with other firms was the way to go.
The Corporate Finance and Strategy practice of The Boston Consulting Group, in their report, finds that this will become much more common in coming years.
This reporter seconds that conclusion, as he writes an occasional recurring feature rounding up news of the latest corporate alliances. The problem is not trying to find examples of the tactic.
Dipping a fist in the telecommunications press release bucket here we find the following:
"UI Magic, Inc., an emerging wireless technology and platform services company, announced today its recent strategic alliance with NetVillage, Co. Ltd., Japan's leading mobile/PC integrated Internet service and content provider…"
"Encore Networks, a leading developer of Virtual Private Network solutions, today announced that iDirect Technologies has certified Encore as an application partner in its IP Alliance Program…"
And from Dow Jones: " Orange, the mobile telecommunications arm of France Telecom, Tuesday said it has signed a deal with U.S. mobile operator Cingular Wireless to provide multinational business customers with better international services…"
The BCG's report, "The Role of Alliances in Corporate Strategy," analyzes trends in worldwide alliance formation between 1988 and 2004, comparing them to those for mergers and acquisitions. It includes a focused study of the impact of alliance announcements on the stock price of 233 alliance partners that participated in 103 sample alliances in the United States and Europe.
It also offers case studies of the role of alliances in what it considers three key industries -- telecommunications, airlines, and pharmaceuticals.
According to the report, alliances remain central to competitive advantage in key sectors of the global economy, such as telecommunications and pharmaceuticals: "As more and more companies shift their attention to growth after a period of consolidation and restructuring, it's likely that the upward swing in alliances will resume again. This is a trend that has already begun in some regions of the world."
In order to create successful alliances, however, BCG cautions, a company must understand when alliances make strategic sense and address their distinctive management challenges. "The very characteristics that make alliances attractive also put strict limits on their usefulness," said Kees Cools, executive advisor to BCG's Amsterdam office and co-author of the report.
"Alliances can be extremely useful in situations of high uncertainty and in markets with growth opportunities that a company either cannot or does not want to pursue on its own. In general, alliances where complementary capabilities or resources are shared are the most successful," Cools says. "But the advantages of shared risk are often offset by unclear governance and lack of genuine commitment. For theses reasons, alliances need to be carefully managed."
In addition to analyzing trends in alliance formation, the report also distills lessons for executives on alliance strategy and management. For example, the report introduces a structured process for alliance management, including a ten-point "CEO checklist" for embedding an alliance-management capability in the organization.
And while an alliance can resemble M&A, says Alexander Roos, a manager in BCG's Berlin office and co-author of the report, when setting up an alliance "a company needs to establish clear criteria for exit -- before entering into a partnership."

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a major cause of disability affecting about 1% of the population. Although much effort has been expended on research into the causes and cures of RA, little progress has been made. The focus of treatment in RA is on reducing the disabling consequences of the disease and controlling the symptoms. Understanding Rheumatoid Arthritis examines the nature of RA and its symptoms of pain and stiffness. The role of health care professionals and the individual's encounters with the doctor are important to understand as these experiences influence the individual's behaviour and understanding of their RA.This book will be an invaluable aid to the considerable number of people who suffer from rheumatoid arthritis, their families, carers and all health professionals involved in its treatment.Stanton Newman is the author of 'Understanding Rheumatoid Arthritis', published 1995 under ISBN 9780415105415 and ISBN 0415105412.[read more]

The unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), or drone, has become one of the most potent weapons of contemporary warfare. Remotely controlled by operators thousands of miles away from the theatre of war, drones carry out aerial attacks which leave hundreds of people dead. The increasing amount of 'collateral damage' from US drone strikes on the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, recently lead prominent politician, Imran Khan, to lead a high-profile protest against their use.
Artists have been actively documenting the impact of the use of drones in warfare for some years now. Trevor Paglen's Drone Vision, recently on show at Lighthouse in Brighton, provides us with a chilling "drones-eye-view" of a landscape, enabling us to see what drone-operators see.
The utterly compelling and disturbing film installation, Five Thousand Feet is the Best by Israeli artist Omer Fast, tells the story of a former Predator drone operator, recalling his experience of using drones to fire at civilians and militia in Afghanistan and Pakistan. At one stage of the film, he describes the use of what marines refer to as "the light of god", the laser targeting marker, which is used to direct hellfire missiles to their intended target.
"We call it in, and we're given all the clearances that are necessary, all the approvals and everything else, and then we do something called the Light of God – the Marines like to call it the Light of God. It's a laser targeting marker. We just send out a beam of laser and when the troops put on their night vision goggles they'll just see this light that looks like it's coming from heaven. Right on the spot, coming out of nowhere, from the sky. It's quite beautiful." (quoted from Five Thousand Feet is the Best).

Josh Holloway is back on TV — and we here at TVGuide.com could not be more excited!
The Lost alum returns to television in Intelligence, CBS' new midseason drama slated to premiere Tuesday, Jan. 7 at 9/8c. (It moves to its regular timeslot on Monday, Jan. 13 at 10/9c.)
CBS moves up Intelligence premiere date
On the series, Holloway plays Gabriel Vaughn, a man with a computer chip in his head that allows him to access every piece of information on the Internet through a program called Clockwork. Gabriel's skills make him a huge and expensive asset to the United States, which is why Lillian Strand (CSI's Marg Helgenberger), the head of U.S. Cyber Command, hires Agent Riley Neal (Once Upon a Time's Meghan Ory) to protect — or should we say babysit? — Gabriel.
Check out a hot new promo for the series:

BOSTON, Nov. 14 (UPI) -- Milan Lucic scored with 53 seconds remaining in overtime Thursday to give Boston a 3-2 triumph over Columbus.
The Bruins won their fourth in a row, getting 32 saves from Chad Johnson. Columbus, which is in last place in the Metropolitan Division, has lost two straight.
Blake Comeau put the Blue Jackets in front midway through the first period, but goals by Loui Eriksson and Shawn Thornton boosted Boston in front at the midway point of the second.
Nick Foligno scored on a backhander with 3:26 to go in the middle period to bring about a 2-2 tie and that was the way it stayed through regulation.
Johnson made only his third appearance in goal this season and boosted his record to 2-1. Sergei Bobrovsky allowed the three Boston goals on 31 shots.
