Arronax is a plugin for Nautilus (the GNOME default file manager) to create and modify application starters (".desktop files"). It adds the menu item "Create starter for this file" to the context menu (the menu you get when you right-click a file in the file manager). If the file is an application starter, you get the item "Modify this starter" instead. If you have icons enabled on your desktop, Arronax adds the menu item "Create starter" to your desktop's context menu.
Rippix is a fork of ripperX, a fast and easy to use CD ripper. While ripperX does a good job of ripping and encoding songs from a CD, it uses a rather outdated user interface. Rippix tries to fill this gap. This includes porting Rippix to GTK+ 3. Additionally, a lot of deprecated code will be rewritten and documentation will be added. The reason for a fork is that after some hacking on the ripperX code, it appeared that more modifications were necessary in order to port to GTK+ 3 conveniently than what could be appreciable by ripperX devs, like removing all the XPM images (including the logo) from the UI.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's testimony Wednesday about last year's deadly assault on a Libyan diplomatic post failed to win over at least one House member: 11th District Congressman Mark Meadows.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's testimony Wednesday about last year's deadly assault on a Libyan diplomatic post failed to win over at least one House member: 11th District Congressman Mark Meadows.
In a phone interview less than an hour after Clinton left Capitol Hill, Meadows said the secretary's testimony before the House Foreign Affairs Committee left many troubling questions unanswered. Among them: "Who knew what when, and why didn't they make different decisions?"
Before her marathon session with the committee, Clinton pledged to adopt all 29 recommendations of an Accountability Review Board report designed to change the way high-risk diplomatic facilities are secured and staffed.
Meadows said the review process was supposed to be independent, but "it's obvious they were having ongoing discussions with her... It really doesn't address the systemic problem we have right now, which is that the protection didn't go far enough."
Among other unresolved questions, Meadows wants to know what was so pressing and "mission-sensitive" that drew slain Ambassador Chris Stevens to the U.S. Special Mission in Benghazi on Sept. 11, despite unstable security conditions.
Starting in May 2012, there were almost daily occurrences of kidnappings, rocket-propelled grenade attacks, roadside bombs and other "major events" around Benghazi, Meadows said.
"We should have known — in fact, we did know — that it was an unstable environment," he said. From testimony and documents released by the ARB, "we knew within hours it was a terrorist attack and (yet) for as many as 10 days, we were blaming it on a video. We know that that was not the truth," Meadows said.
Meadows said more witnesses who were in the U.S. compound at Benghazi need to be called before Congress. The ARB did what amounted to an administrative review of procedures, he said, and identified "management deficiencies" at senior levels of the State Department, "but they didn't name who those senior-level leaders were."
Meadows also questioned Clinton's assertion during her testimony that the exact nature of the Benghazi attack doesn't matter at this point, only identifying what went wrong and assuring it doesn't happen again.
Knowing whether the attack was orchestrated or spontaneous is important, he said. Meadows pointed out that Ambassador Stevens had been in Benghazi less than a day, for the first time since he was sworn in four months previously, when the attack occurred.
"That's either coincidental or very planned, and that's why it does matter," he said.

Straight member (heh) Joel Reader contributes a tune, and co-founders Jon Ginoli & Chris Freeman add their songwriting genius to these tales of infatuation, homoerotic athletic traditions, male prostitution, fighting words, and their newest theme song, "20 Years of Cock (And I'm Never Gonna Stop)!"
It also features Jello Biafra on "Average Men," which is also available on the new 7"! That's So Gay is fun, thoughtful, funny, serious, and rocks from end to end! Don't forget to check out co-founder Jon Ginoli's New Book and the Pansy Division documentary DVD!
That's So Gay by Pansy Division
"Powerpop (a la CHEAP TRICK, THE TUBES, THE CARS), Poppunkrock (THE UNDERTONES) and 70s Glamrock (NEW YORK DOLLS) are mixed by the band PANSY DIVISION. 'That's so gay' is the band's first new album in six years and features 14 catchy little uptempo rockers that combine the best of mentioned bands. The song "Average men" also features JELLO BIAFRA of DEAD KENNEDYS and is what one would expect a typical Punkrocksong like DEAD KENNEDYS once did. However most of the material goes into the direction of THE UNDERTONES, THE BUZZCOCKS.... with a big Powerpoprock approach, such as can be heard on the highlights "Twinkie Twinkie Little Star", "Ride Baby" and "Some of my best friends", but actually all the included songs are very catchy and highly recommended to fans of CHEAP TRICK, THE CARS, THE UNDERTONES and THE TUBES."- Sonic Rendevous
"In the six years since Pansy Division last released a new album, it's gotten a lot harder to shock mainstream America by simply throwing around the word "homosexual." Gay marriage is legal in several states, and from Clay Akin to Ellen DeGeneres, to Queer Eye For The Straight Guy's massive makeover of cable TV (thrusting gays into the spotlight on dozens of style, cooking, and reality-TV shows,) the battle lines in the fight for gay rights have definitely been redrawn. So while Pansy Division will still titillate (and attempt to shock) you with bawdy songs about hot sex and lusty looks ("Twinkie Twinkie Little Star," "Ride Baby," "Dirty Young Man,") nearly half of That's So Gay confronts the more subtle issue of institutionalized homophobia. The title song cheekily calls out anyone who tosses the word "gay" around pejoratively, a hilarious duet with Jello Biafra savagely lampoons the world view of "Average Men," and the newest (and straight) member of PD, ex-MTX and Plus Ones guitarist Joel Reader, gets his own song that trumpets his intolerance for the casual homophobia expressed by "Some Of My Best Friends." Don't worry, there are still enough cocks, call boys, and cruising in the lyrics to raise a few eyebrows, but as always, Pansy Division couches its political agenda with the wit, hooks, and ultra-catchy melodies that have always earned the band a place in the Pop-Punk Pantheon. Reader's guitar really enhances the band's trademark three-chord pop-punk chordage, too. PD's unrelenting sense of humor keeps any of this from sounding too preachy, although that will probably be the knock against this album. But let's face it: 15 years ago, just being a gay punk band was the message. Today, Jon, Chris, Luis, and Joel need to be a little more in-your-face, or they risk becoming queer minstrels who just reinforce rather than challenge gay stereotypes. With That's So Gay, they entertain, and inform. That's so cool. And important."- Jersey Beat
"Pansy Division, which helped inaugurate the "queercore" offshoot of San Francisco's early-nineties punk scene, has recently reunited, and has evolved significantly. The group's new record, "That's So Gay," balances the tongue-in-cheek impudence of its initial efforts with ample emotional introspection, something that's absent from much of contemporary pop-punk."- New Yorker

"We are building transportation improvements that will benefit the state for decades and will also boost job growth in every region of California," said California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Director Malcolm Dougherty.
The funds are part of a larger sum of $287 million awarded to 23 projects statewide, covering multiple modes of transportation. These allocations include $259 million from Proposition 1B, a transportation bond approved by voters in 2006. The remaining $28 million in allocations came from assorted transportation accounts funded by state and federal dollars.
Rail-related projects that received funding include:
• Almeda: $65.8 million to the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC), for the Port of Oakland's Outer Harbor Intermodal Terminals Project. The project will connect a new 200-car rail yard and build new lead tracks off the Martinez Subdivision near Emeryville Yard, which will become the main entry point for all rail traffic to and from the port.
• San Diego: $25.9 million to the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) for the Southline Rail Improvements – Yard Expansion. The project will provide storage track for 96 additional rail cars and will result in increased safety and reduction of highway congestion by removing up to 31,800 truck trips a year, 96 percent increase in rail throughout annually and a 100 percent increase in daily train operations.
• San Joaquin: $10,974,000 to the San Joaquin Regional Rail Commission for the ACE Stockton Passenger Track Extension. The project includes construction of a 2.57-mile dedicated passenger rail track north of downtown Stockton, interlocking between Union Pacific and BNSF, which will improve train access to station and passenger boarding.

Interesting little fact: John Denver wrote "Take Me Home, Country Roads" after he broke his thumb. Bad omen, anybody?
Look, I understand that West Virginians are pissed, but they should stop their whining already. Call me cold, but they're taking it a bit too far. He could have done much worse. I think he just needed to get out. Maybe the place got suffocating after a while. I know that he shouldn't have said that he would stay at WV until the end, but calling him a traitor and blaming Don Nehlen for encouraging him is going too far. They're just looking for people to blame. Besides, they were pissed at him after WVU lost to Pitt.

That first video is flat out disturbing. These are the images that create serial killers boys n girls. Maybe they should be less blaming RR and more blaming the University for not giving RR what he wanted and insted using that money to gamble. Since gambling is the only thing they do in WV besides incest.

Nice find on the OSU corner. Sucks for them, LSU has enough speed on offense to contend with anyway. Kudos to The Sweatervest for layin down the law.
"Look, I understand that West Virginians are pissed, but they should stop their whining already. "

Ok, 20 minutes is enough....
Attention all West Virginians: Get over it. Did we take your basketball coach? Yes. Did we Take your football coach? Yes. We understand you were excited to have something progressive like the spread offense in your state. We would be too if the last progressive thing to hit our state was shoes, but really, there are better things out there.
Someday you'll learn about dentures, education past the 8th grade, and women who you're not related to (yes- they DO exist!), and trust me, all this spread offense stuff will just seem like a lot of hooey. Plus, we hear you-all have them "new fangled satellite dishes" now, so you'll be able to watch R2 and his Wacky Ninja Offense tear through the Big Ten like the Spears sisters through pregnancy tests.
So please- relax West Virginians. Life is good. Take a trip to the big city. I hear Cincinnati is fine this time of year. And if you get homesick, don't worry: Kentucky is just across the river and they've got mullets there, too.
PS. Please tell Terry Bowden we said hi, and thanks for being our farm culb!

I was happy that we didn't end up getting Les Miles. He's not such a great coach. I was worried, though, that we didn't get him because of incompetence on the Bill Martin's part. Bill Martin redeemed himself pretty good.
That John Denver song is stuck in my head. It's a great song.

The letter was funny, but I don't like kicking fans when they're down. I said that they should stop being so ridiculous, but I'm not gloating about it.
Bowl season starts tonight!!! I have Utah winning on my ESPN Pick'em. Navy has no D, and I don't think that Paul Johnson is coaching them in the bowl game. Utah has already beaten several ok BCS teams.

Something that's been nagging at me all day.....
Why did the guy in the first video NOT have a couch to burn? I mean, he said, "since we don't have a couch to burn I've got this shirt...."
I figured FOR SURE that they'd have like 2 or 3 couches on the porch, and that shirts, in general were optional??????
Guess I'm holding on to some misguided stereotypes...
- December 20, 2007 2:48 PM

Couch burning?
No wonder everyone in WV will now be rooting for OSU. They're a perfect fit!

- Nathan said...
Look, I'm a WVU alumni living in NYC so I can't really relate to the jackass in the video burning his shirt, but I don't know why you guys are spending so much time bashing WVU fans. The truth is when you stole our basketball coach, things worked out much better for us (and not so good for you so far). RR is not the top 5 coach you guys think or want him to be. He did after all get outcoached by Dave Wannstedt. WVU fans are pissed at the way he left but I'm not sure they're necessarily pissed that he left in the first place. After the Pitt game, most were fed up with him getting completely outcoached once or twice a year.
- December 20, 2007 4:40 PM
- TitleIX said...
if he only gets outcoached once or twice a year, we'll take it ;-)
and, seriously, if fans of ANY team are dumb enough to put stoopid shit up on YouTube that validates every stereotype under the sun, why wouldn't we tee off on it????
I mean really, these guys pitched a sweet fat fastball right over the plate. Nothin' else to do but
SAAAWING and
BOO-YAH..that one is getting hit outta da park by the clever ones in the crowd.

Like I said to Blue, it's all in good fun from my perspective. I haven't even been able to view the videos (blocked at work) but I couldn't (actually, chose not to) ignore the chance to make light of certain stereotypes. If you hang around this blog long enough you'll find we're all about good sportsmanship and intelligent football conversation with a dash of humor and good-natured ribbing thrown in. Truth be told, we're all a little too crazy about a bunch of barely post-adolescent young men in tight pants chasing each other around with a piece of leather. (What that says about us I'm not sure. In private I try to get as much of that with the ladies as possible, but I'll leave that out as I'm afraid the regulars here are about to sign me up for a 12 step program.)
Anyway, no harm intended. As you said, our choice of BB coach hasn't really yielded much in the way of dividends so far. And feel free to throw out some Crazy Michigan Militia types, Lord knows moving back here has given me enough "Gunrack" material to last for days.

I thought EAST Virginia was, "for lovers."
So if Dick Rod [sic] ever got any love THERE--say, on a weekend military furlough--he will never get love like he got THERE again.
Unless the advertising slogan is materially misrepresenting the "love potential" in the state. I mean, Commonwealth...

I have to agree with this Nathan character. I don't think Rodriguez is a top 5 guy nor do I think he was the best choice. (I'm a big naysayer, sorry)
And he's also right about hoops. It may have worked out in their favor. Here's to hoping UCLA doesn't beat Michigan by 30 points like Duke did.
And, as much as I would like them to shutup I do feel bad for their fans. Rod did kind of screw 'em over.

Wow, watching that I almost felt bad for the guy. At least the production value was good. Didn't know you could do that with crayon.
Oh, wait- that'd be Columbus.
Sorry, Johnny, but like the guys over at Black Heart Gold Pants put it
"... Rodriguez is 60-26 in seven seasons at WVU. He pwn3d the Big East, winning 4 of the last 5 titles and 3 coach of the year awards. His teams run the spread option better than just about anyone. In other words, this ain't your father's Michigan offense anymore, and Florida (and, increasingly, Illinois) has taught us all the basic math of Wacko Ninja Offense + Top-Notch Talent = Carnage."
From here on out I will not refer to our offense without referencing the words "Wacky" or "Ninja". Apparently "Ninja Football" was coined by a blog called The Bemusement Park. Hmm, possible blog name for me?

Ok, since it is slim pickings here tonight, how about some of the best of the Mzone?
My 20 year old son and I spend hours with each other when I come home, sharing songs we have on our iPods, we also have fun on you tube, so when this post came up back in November, I shared the video clip with him. Of course he loved it. He just now asked me where to find it because he wants to show it to his friends (oye). Anyway, I dug it up for him and thought I would remind you all, because it does tend to bring a laugh or two!

I love watching the triple option. I never saw it run by Nebraska under Tom Osborne. It's just...different.
That guy Ken Niumatalolo seems to be doing a good job so far. It's still just the second quarter, but I bet Paul Johnson is schlepping nachus (don't ask) watching his student take over. I expected Utah to win, but Navy's looking good. Anything can happen in the 2nd half.

hopefully the defense sticks around for the second half and the offense starts running the way they can.
for you texters, the answer is miami of ohio (rothlesberger/harrison), michigan (brady/ford) and stanford (plunkett and elway, hoover)

Bad news...RR fired all of the assistant coaches. All 9! What the fuck? Guff will probably leave now that Fred Jackson is gone. I can't believe that that outsider prick fired Ron English, Loeffler, Szabo, Jackson. It sucks and it's a really bad idea. So much for fucking continuity. Maybe it's not happening and he's making it seem like it is in order to motivate the players?
Ok, FUCK UTAH. Their prick of a coach just called timeout after the snap. I rooted for Tulsa over Utah last year b/c I hated Urban Meyer last year. Then I didn't care so much. Now they're pricks.

Blue, he said in his presser that he would not retain, but rehire (if he would keep any of them) The first step to rehire is to fire. Maybe we should wait and see. It is typical to clean house though and bring a full new staff in, so we can't blame him if that is the case.

Thanks Katie!!
I had a feeling that that actually might be a possibility. This actually happened with Beilein. Beilein came in, cleaned house, but then rehired some guy. I don't know the specifics, but it was very smart on Beilein's part because that assistant that he kept is a good recruiter.
I hope that he rehires some of them, specifically English, Loeffler, Jackson, and Szabo.
Does Moeller Lite stand a chance? Anyone? Bueller?

Comparing CPO Warranties
How do certified pre-owned warranty terms and conditions differ? What should you look out for if you're interested in buying a certified car?
One of the major reasons for buying a certified pre-owned car is to get the warranty that comes along with it, yet those warranties differ among automakers and the terms can be confusing.
Some automakers offer what's left of the original new-car powertrain warranty on their factory-certified used vehicles, while adding short-term bumper-to-bumper coverage. Other automakers won't transfer the original warranties, but instead offer new bumper-to-bumper coverage. Most automakers offer roadside assistance, but the duration varies from automaker to automaker. Check the automaker's website for details, and make sure you get warranty information in writing. You may need it someday.
Make sure you're clear on whether the car is a manufacturer-certified vehicle or a dealer-certified one. The former can be repaired at any like-brand dealership anywhere in the country. If it's dealer-certified, you may have to return to the dealership where the car was purchased to get any needed work done.
Some final words of warning: When you buy a factory-certified car, don't get talked into purchasing an extended warranty.
And remember, when it comes to buying a factory-certified pre-owned vehicle, you can still negotiate on price.
While a factory-backed warranty is a plus that makes factory-certified used cars an attractive proposition, experts say that certified factory-backed warranty programs have at least one shortcoming: the lack of federal standards on which parts and systems are covered by a warranty.

(This post was updated with breaking news at 9:27 a.m. ET.)
Seven U.S. Marines were killed Wednesday night when two helicopters collided over the Yuma, Ariz., Training Range Complex, according to a statement just emailed to the NPR Newscast Desk by a spokesman for the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing.
The statement adds that:
"The aircraft, an AH-1W 'Cobra' and an UH-1Y 'Huey,' were conducting routine training operations around 8:00 p.m. Identities of the Marines will be withheld until next of kin have been notified."
Our original post:
NBC News appears to have been first to report that "seven Marines were killed when their two helicopters collided Wednesday night near Yuma, Ariz.," according to "defense officials."
There are now similar stories from ABC News and CNN.
But The Associated Press is reporting that "a military official says two Huey military helicopters have crashed in the Chocolate Mountains in southeast California, but it's unclear whether there are casualties."
We'll pass on more information as the story develops.

I have loved this image for years, as the artist (Barbara Gadon) is a personal friend who has shown me her collage work as it progressed. I wanted this piece for my home office to remind me of the soothing words of the 23rd Psalm, "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life..." The acrylic version I chose is beautifully rendered, so I was disappointed that it didn't look right where I had intended to hang it, as there was too much reflection from the window opposite. Instead, I hung it near the door to my office, where I see it every time I walk past -- a delightful compromise!
This work is a take on the warrior versus the dragon scenario.

Top 10 bullpens: Braves stacked with Kimbrel and Co.
Nats look even better than they were last year, and Rays always have solid relief corps
By Anthony Castrovince 2/6/2013 10:31 A.M. ET
With Spring Training just days away, we're taking an admittedly subjective look each day this week at baseball's top 10s -- lineups, rotations, bullpens, defenses and overall rosters.
Today it's the top 10 bullpens -- an area that, it must be noted, is especially subject to change.
As always, feel free to contribute your own top 10 in the comments section below.
10. Royals: Other than the Rockies, who put their starters on a 75-pitch limit at midseason, no relief unit was called upon more in 2012 than that of the Royals, who logged 561 1/3 innings out of their bullpen. With a 3.17 ERA that ranked sixth in the sport, it was a very effective unit, even with formerly dominant closer Joakim Soria on the shelf. Greg Holland stepped into the closer role and struck out 91 batters in 67 innings, and he's supported by fellow hard throwers Kelvin Herrera and Aaron Crow. Tiny Tim Collins struck out 93 in 69 2/3 innings. This is a deep, power staff that shouldn't have to carry as much of the load now that the Royals have seemingly improved their rotation.
9. Yankees: Mariano Rivera is the best closer in baseball until he isn't. Last year, he wasn't, for the obvious reason that he wasn't active. Now that he is active, I'll believe he'll remain highly effective until my eyes tell me otherwise. He is, however, 43 years old, so this won't go on forever (or will it?). Because of Rivera's return and the presence of fellow relief ace David Robertson, with upside in the form of Cody Eppley and Mark Montgomery, I'll give Mo the benefit of the doubt and give the Yanks, who rated No. 1 on this list a year ago, a spot in the top 10, even with Rafael Soriano out of the picture.
8. Dodgers: With a relief ERA of 3.19, which ranked seventh in the Majors last season, and a relief average against of .221, which ranked fourth, the Dodgers already had a solid mix. They added Brandon League at the Trade Deadline last year, and he'll be the closer in 2013, and they added a nice left-handed option in J.P. Howell, who made big strides in his return from shoulder surgery last season. Kenley Jansen, who struck out 99 in 65 innings last season despite an irregular heartbeat that led to offseason surgery, is a legitimate closing candidate in his own right.
7. Reds: The Reds had arguably the best bullpen in baseball last season, but obviously Aroldis Chapman was a big, big part of that success. The Reds' decision to convert him to starting work probably makes sense for the long-term, but it figures to take some of the shine off this unit in the present tense. Jonathan Broxton will take over the ninth after a solid bounceback season. Sean Marshall, Jose Arredondo, Sam LeCure and Logan Ondrusek all return to what is a very solid relief corps that can and should again be among the best in the game. But there's little question that Chapman's move will have an impact.
6. A's: Though the A's traded their one-time All-Star closer, Andrew Bailey, before the 2012 season, they found a lockdown late-inning tandem of veteran Grant Balfour (0.924 WHIP) and rookie Ryan Cook (0.941). Lefty Sean Doolittle was a revelation, an effective left-on-left matchup man in MLB less than a year after converting from first base. The A's return all the principles of their 'pen, so they should again have the solid support of one of the league's best rotations.
5. Giants: Last season was actually a down one for a Giants bullpen that had finished second in the Majors in relief ERA each of the previous three years. In 2012, with Brian Wilson out of the picture, a still-respectable 3.56 mark ranked 15th. But by year's end, the 'pen was once again a major, major strength, with Sergio Romo emerging from a committee of closers to shine in the ninth inning during the October run. Because Romo relies so heavily on his breaking pitches, it's possible his workload will be more measured than that of the average closer, and that's why having setup men Jeremy Affeldt and Santiago Casilla, both of whom can close games, is so vital.
4. Orioles: There is no easy way to describe the Orioles' ridiculous season, but suffice to say it doesn't happen without this particularly bullish bullpen -- a unit that ranked fifth in the Majors in relief ERA with an even 3.00 mark. That was a big reason the O's went an unprecedented 29-9 in one-run games. The relievers also held up to the rigors of a substantial workload, as they were turned to for 545 1/3 innings, fourth-most of any team in baseball and the most of any playoff team. Closer Jim Johnson saved 51 games and allowed just three homers and 15 walks in 68 2/3 innings. Setup men Pedro Strop and Darren O'Day return, and it will be interesting to see if Brian Matusz and/or Tommy Hunter, struggling starters who flourished in a relief role late last year, will wind up back in the bullpen mix at any point.
3. Nationals: The Nats already had two relievers with recent 30-plus save seasons in their back-end mix for 2013, and then they added another in dramatic fashion by signing Rafael Soriano, who saved 42 games for the Yankees last year. Soriano will take over as the closer, and the Nats seem to have insured themselves against the volatility of late-inning relief. That volatility revealed itself in stunning fashion in Game 5 of last year's Division Series, but this had been a very reliable unit prior to that point, ranking eighth in relief ERA. Soriano's arrival puts the Nats in position to have a truly elite bullpen.
2. Rays: Certain things are tradition this time of year. Groundhog Day. The Super Bowl. Valentine's Day. Pitchers and catchers reporting. The Rays somehow putting an elite bullpen together. I foolishly didn't have them in this top 10 a year ago, because I had the same questions about the Rays' closing situation as anybody. But Fernando Rodney responded in a big way -- 48 saves and a 0.60 ERA that was the lowest in history. And as a unit, the Rays had the lowest relief ERA (2.88) in the American League in seven years. Young left-hander Jake McGee made huge developmental strides and posted a 1.95 ERA. Joel Peralta, Kyle Farnsworth and Cesar Ramos should make for an effective setup group, and a move to the bullpen could be good for the command issues that have plagued Roberto Hernandez (The Artist Formerly Known As Fausto Carmona) in recent years. There are questions here -- particularly about Rodney's ability to repeat his 2012 performance and the starting-innings stability lost by trading James Shields -- but the Rays typically find ways to answer the questions in this area.
1. Braves: One of the few no-brainers in compiling these lists is putting the Braves here. Closer Craig Kimbrel wasn't just good but historically good last season, and, as I argued in November, should have received stronger Cy Young consideration. Kimbrel had an unprecedented 16.7 strikeouts-per-nine-innings ratio and held the opposition to a .128 average. And his supporting cast is pretty darned good, too. Jonny Venters, perhaps predictably after especially heavy workloads in 2010 and '11, struggled in the first half but had a 1.71 ERA in the second. Eric O'Flaherty has a 1.31 ERA over the past two seasons. The 23-year-old Luis Avilan arrived and had a 2.00 ERA and 33 strikeouts in 36 innings. And if the Braves are able to straighten out Jordan Walden's command, the best bullpen in baseball could get even better.
Honorable mention: General manager John Mozeliak once again did an impressive patch-up job on the Cardinals' bullpen at midseason, as Ed Mujica proved to be an impactful acquisition to what had been an erratic relief corps. ... The D-backs will have an elite 'pen if J.J. Putz remains healthy and Heath Bell bounces back. ... The Mariners had five guys finish 2012 with more than 10 strikeouts per nine, and that group doesn't even include underrated closer Tom Wilhelmsen. ... The addition of Mike Adams should help the Phillies get late leads into the hands of Jonathan Papelbon. ... The Red Sox could very quickly ascend in the bullpen ranks, depending on Joel Hanrahan's transition and whether Andrew Bailey and Daniel Bard can recapture their 2011 forms. ... The additions of Matt Albers and Matt Capps should further strengthen an Indians bullpen whose closer (Chris Perez) finished eighth in save percentage and whose setup man (Vinnie Pestano) finished second in holds. ... The Padres' bullpen, which ranked ninth in relief ERA last year, should be good again if Huston Street stays healthy. ... Yeah, there are a lot of teams listed here. Bullpens are absolutely unpredictable and a nightmare to rank.

I always thought of Vince really really hot. When growing up through WWF and WWE I just all of a sudden had a thing for him. Also have a thing for former Referee Earl Hebner.
He appears on the cover of Muscle & Fitness:
is that even his real body? I mean the guy always looked small, or so it looked in his suits, then all of a sudden this comes out, if he got that body, he definatly had to have gained some weight and taken steroids.
he really is that buff in real life... i thnk when he went up against stone cold steve austin.. he ripped off his shirt.. holy crap surprise!.
Airbrused maybe but not photoshopped. He actually does look that built.
To be queer is to be different. To be gay is to be happy. TO be proud is to be both.
Oh, McMahon is built alright. I have the issue (naturally), and there are more photos inside. He has an amazing physique, but may be a little too bulky for his stature.
Nothing's photoshopped, not even airbrushed (you can see some blemishes on the magazine photos). And if you couldn't tell that he was buff from how much he fills out his suit, then you need your eyes fixed.
What is the story with him? For the longest time he was just there as the president of WWE and all of a sudden he just got huge! Why did he all of a sudden decide to start wrestling? Back when I used to watch wrestling, he was so skinny and weak looking, and now...what the hell?
Well wouldn't be the first time my eyes decieved me lol.
He just looked so small not built in his suits!!!! Well not the build that he has today.
wow he does really good in this pics i wish i could suck his dick
Vince has always been built, you guys probably never realized. Here's a picture of him in naval academy:
Here are the Muscle & Fitness spreads.
Post more hot McMahon pics!
i am in love with his ass
Yeah it's hard to believe how fit this guy is, but hey i'm not complaining
I wish i could join the Vince McMahon KISS MY ASS Club LOL
Everything looks okay until he starts ranting and raving then I have to shut the TV off. I'm just turned off by his personality.
Faith in Chaos
Not Interseted Sorry
Why stop at kissing that ass?
There's something about him that I always found kinda creepy ...
I didn't think he looked small even in his suits.
Can you spare $1 for JUB?!! YEP, just 1 Single US Dollar goes a long way for us! Check out some of our exclusive deals that we barter Just For YOU JUBBERS: www.justusboys.com/promo.php
I agree with greenlight711 and Thundercizzle. This guy is a musclegod.
he's ok-ish i suppose. with some alcohol would help
ok-ish? he is fine i would love to suck him up
I'm dying to see that naval academy shot, but it's not available from the server anymore. Can anyone repost?
I think Vince has always been hot! Always so exciting to think of him in those flashy shirts and suits and what he's got hidden underneath there. Wooo!!!
me 2 i would love to find out and catch him shirtless and with his pants at his ankles and where are those pics at can someone post them?
How did that whole ass kiss thing happen anyway?
His Socks!!
*gulp* !!!!
Just read a post of him in a tight t-shirt, does anyone have pictures of that??????
I would kiss anything he wanted me to.....twice maybe
How hot is that photo of his ass being kissed?
anyone got any fakes of him?
Uhm... I prefer his sonny...
↑Yeah... The time when I was a huge fan of WWE and WWF... I spent lots of time browsing for Shane's picts...
I will forever believe that Vince McMahon is attracted to men, he totally gets off on making studs kiss his butt (literally).
I'd kiss his butt and worship him ;-) ...
i've had a thing for him for years..he's my daddy fantasy
Great nipples
I had a really hot fantasy about him two days ago...
Hey I would kiss his butt.. hes hot! :P
Fuck look at his biceps in the video!!!
I wish his arms weren't so big. Otherwise I've always had a crush on him.
Always found Vince McMahon to be fucking hot. Actually, looking back he may have been one of the first guys that got my dick hard.
I loved the way he made guys kiss his sexy ass. I loved his huge chest and those big nipples. And the boulder-sized biceps were a HUGE turn-on.
I only wish he'd gotten naked for Playgirl or something once. He doesn't look as good now so it wouldn't be the same. Oh well...
I saw a few pics when I googled him and I hated the way his hair looked. Are those recent and is he losing his hair?
Incidentally he's a day shy of being 40 years older than me.
He is one of the hottest, great bulge as well ... and what a chest ....
He was one of the first "older" guys I was into back in 1999. I always wanted to see him and his archrival Stone Cold get it on.... and I don't mean in the ring!

Unfinished Oak hardwood flooring versus prefinished Oak is a choice that consumers deal with when considering hardwood floors in their new or existing home.
More often than not, the appeal of having a custom floor is alluring to the consumer. If you're adamant about having the floor a perfect match to your custom stained cabinets, and you can't find a prefinished floor that goes with them, then Hard Wood Flooring - Why It Is The Best Flooring Solution For Your ... Livermore CA 94550 looking at unfinished is probably an option for you. However, that's about the only reason an unfinished floor should be considered, when color is the only factor.
A few things to note when deciding between prefinished and unfinished wood floors:
1. A prefinished wood floor will have a higher quality finish than an unfinished, custom stained version. Prefinished wood floors will usually have between 4-7 coats of Aluminum Livermore CA 94550 Oxide and or Polyurethane applied at the factory using several treatments that include pressure and heating. Not only will the finish be incomparably better on a prefinished wood, but the factory process also rids the wood of any excess moisture. There are great custom wood flooring installers out there. Don't misunderstand me! They just can't give you them same finish quality because of limitations in the Hardwood Flooring: Eco-Friendly and Economical Livermore CA 94550 field, plain old physics, temperature, physics and chemistry.
2. Manufacturers give between a 5 and 25 year wear warranty and 5 and 15 years on the finish itself. If you go with a custom stained unfinished floor you will get a 1 year warranty at best.
3. A custom prefinished floor will take a lot longer to install. The floor has the be "aired out" longer before the Livermore CA 94550 job, it has to be nailed down, then sanded, then stained, then finished, and then sometimes another finish is applied. It can be a week long process sometimes. Installation of a prefinished wood floor takes about half the time versus unfinished.
4. A prefinished hardwood floor produces less off gassing and VOC's than a custom unfinished version during and after installation.
5. Unfinished hardwood will have to be Livermore CA 94550 refinished much quicker than factory prefinished versions. Refinishing a floor can be an expensive project.
Don't get me wrong on this! It may seem like I'm knocking unfinished, custom wood flooring. If you want to have a custom floor, that's great. However, you need to be armed with the right knowledge so you can decide if it's really the right choice for you.

Greenpeace New Zealand Oceans Campaigner Karli Thomas at the launch of a public campaign in downtown Auckland urging Sealord to stop buying tuna for its canned products from companies using fishing methods which kill endangered sharks, turtles, juvenile tuna and other ocean species. Sealord, and other New Zealand brands of canned tuna, buy tuna which is caught using purse seine nets combined with fish aggregation devices (FADs). FADs are like marine death traps as they attract all sorts of ocean life, not just tuna, making the bycatch of purse seine fisheries up to 10 times higher than other more sustainable methods.This is threatening tuna stocks in the Pacific and the health of the ocean.

Michigan 31, MSU 13...A complete victory
Leave us your thoughts, more to come later.

The tipped touchdown pass seems to signify, in one moment, what MSU football is all about. Offensive playcalling a bit weak in the second half, and Adams 4th down interception would have been a major error if the game had been closer. Hope Hart and Manningham are OK, and they were held out because they weren't needed.
An MSU is always satisfying.....!
- October 07, 2006 8:07 PM
We play to our competition, and MSU is god-awful. Their spiral down the toilet began in earnest this week and shouldn't stop anytime soon. The interceptions were sick. Manningham is teh seksie. And we know how to win with class (by not kicking a field goal on 4th down up 18 with a minute left).
We should've planted an Illinois flag on the Spartan sideline.

I thought Leyland's play calling was great, Bonderman's throws were on target, and the defense and the hitting was fantastic.
Wait, having those two TVs on at the same time has me confused.
Anaother solid performance by the Wolverines. I appreciate that they took charge early and allowed me to concentrate on the Tigers beat down of the Yankees.
I give Sparty credit for not quitting. I thought for sure when it got to 17-0 they'd be done. They weren't able to make a game of it, but that has more to do with our defense than their effort. Good luck to them next week at home against the Bucks.

Wow, judging by some of the comments, several parents must have forgotten to lock their computers when they went out today.
The generally lack of strangeness in this game was, uh, strange. Where's the horribly bad call that changes the game? Where's the ugly meltdown? How about some flag planting or fighting at the end? Although there were a lot of penalties called against the Spartans and they did botch several things it was a decent enough effort on their part.
For Michigan, this appears to be the standard Big Ten win.
Michigan: 27-31 points
Big Ten Opponent: 13-14 points.
I'm not sure if the routine, workman-like wins are a good or bad thing. These are solid wins but there's just something missing, a certain je na sais quoi. Maybe it's just that Michigan is so dominating that there's just not that much drama to them.
It's a matter of when not if Chad Henne is going to connect to Mario Manningham with a deep ball. It's a matter of at what point in the game will Mike Hart exceed 100 yards. And there's a certain surety that the opponent's offense just isn't going to do much on more than maybe two drives.
I guess I can't help wanting more entertainment out of these games even though, rationally, I know the lack of drama is actually a good thing. If drama is the combination of setbacks and triumphs, maybe last year had the setbacks this season.
I especially liked the shot of Mike Hart--and other Michigan players—mingling, talking, and smiling with the Michigan State players after the game was over.
- October 08, 2006 2:51 AM
Let me just say that I am very much impressed with the improvement of Michigan's D. However, what the hec is up with the pass defense??? Everytime a team passes against us, I hold my breath. I hope it improves greatly before we play OSU.
- October 08, 2006 3:24 AM
- October 08, 2006 3:26 AM
I totally agree with baggypants devil...there definitely is some "flare" missing from this michigan team. Don't get me wrong, they're getting the job done and doing a fine job of it...It just makes me feel uneasy.

Should have been more of a blowout.
Michigan playcalling in second half was too vanilla.
Acceptable perhaps when you have the lead against MSU. Not acceptable if your using game time situations to prepare for Ohio State at year end.
Good game by UM. Turnovers and game clock both under control.

At no point during the game did I feel Michigan State was going to win. They were never a threat. Bring on Pooterno! Go Blue!

Let me do my best surronded in columbus impression:
"I was just looking over the OSU boxscore. I noticed that it was still 21-7 mid-way through the third quarter. They didn't have a 100 yard rusher against BGSU? I don't think they are very good"

sorry, but considering the opponent, i actually thought tosu looked like what you would expect a top ranked big ten team to look like when playing a mid level mac school.
good to see you actually look at the numbers rather than sitting in your car, listening to purdy/frey/bruce-speilman/lachey/karsatos slap each other on the back in the radio talking about how "great" tosu looked, regardless of how "great" they really looked.

I think instead of being uneasy or nervous with the steady, solid, dominating performances, we should count our blessings and ease up on the neuroses. As in, "Wow, this incredibly hot and smart girl is hitting on me in the bar. Something must be wrong." Are we actually worrying about Michigan being so dominant that it's becoming boring? I think that's holdover from recent years of heartbreak and terror. Last weekend, after what would normally be considered a sound and thorough thrashing of Minnesota, there was angst about Michigan easing off during junk time. This is the kind of behavior normally limited to Red Sox fans.
As of today, I'm less scared of Michigan losing than I am of us winning out, and the effects that such a development would have on work concentratiion, sleep, cognitive ability, heart rate, etc. If Michigan loses to Penn State or Iowa, I can spend the following month innoculated. On the other hand, if it's undefeated Michigan walking down cupcake alley until tOSU, I will be so consumed and crazed that it will put Frederick Exley to shame. I may very well need to take a leave of absence from work.
I also have begun experiencing late-night flashbacks to the '97 Iowa game -- that season's brush with death.
- October 08, 2006 3:58 PM
Few things I've noticed in first half of the season:
This defense is going to win games and championships. The offense needs to continue "matriculating the ball down the field" and not turning it over. It seems to some that we are lacking flare (is the minimum 15 pieces) or as baggypants put it, a certain "je na sais quoi" (great spelling by the way). My question is; do we want anymore out of the offense? I know that flashy offenses (Cal, WVU, Boise, Utah w/ Meyer, ASU) are fun to watch and put up huge numbers but the wolverines are so solid in all areas of the offense, I don't know if the flare is necessary.
I may get ripped for this and feel free to tell me different but I thought this in Braylon's senior year and i see it again. Breaston's hands: I know they are scary are scary, but he plays a huge role in the way he is used. Swing passes, outs and crossing routes are easy to catch and teams have to stay up to contain him in the open field. This opens up everything for the soon to be occupant of the #1. I heard them on ESPN say "how are these safties not getting deep on Manningham?" I think that some of it is the threat that Breaston presents in the flats. Yes, I know Hart, Grady, Minor and Max Martin (was that in bad taste?) create ulcers for D coordinators, but having a threat in the short passing game can be lethal and essential to a championship season. I have a feeling that in a big game breaston will make something happen that will erase all of the bad memories his doubters have.
WOW! The Defense, WOW! nuff said,
I won't ever utter the words Na****al Ch********ip (shutter, due to the curse that I may have just caused) but right now a game w/ tOSU would be a classic and I have no clue on an outcome.
Play Calling: "Conservaive late in the second half" is what I keep hearing but it doesn't bother me. Good teams know how to practice during the game. What I mean is, when the game is for the most part over, or the other team is just done, it is good to work on your basic packages and standard plays to perfect them for when execution is crucial. When they need it the big plays will be there, if Mario hasn't eased your doubts enough. So don't worry Debord, he'll be fine.
I hope I am not the only one who feels nervous about this start? I feel like the nerd dating the really hot chick and just waiting for her to figure it out give me the boot.
one quick note: Yost and Benny spend A lot of time putting this site together so could we please leave the bull shit trash talk to the forum at ESPN.com this site has to much hilarity and insight to have some jack-mouth trying to pick a fight with words. I don't care I just want to talk football or see some boobs.
- October 08, 2006 5:10 PM
Good game Wolves! Typical UofM domination over the self-imploding Spartans. It's OSU's turn next week to slide it in ol' John L. I just hope the Spartans don't ruin the suspense for Nov.18. Nah! No way. Just watch your step with the rest of the cupcakes in the Big 11.
- October 08, 2006 6:19 PM
Very satisfying win vs Sparty, which are usually stomach churning episodes in Don't F it up boys.
Michigan was clearly, and I mean cleary the better team. MSU was never in a position to pull and upset.
Classic workmanlike Lloyd Carr blowout.
- October 08, 2006 7:56 PM
I'd much rather be bored to sleep and wake up to a win than eating Tums and lose with 3 minutes left. I'm fine with quiet dominance rather than flashy irregularity.
Go Blue.

The workman like metality of this Michigan team and the way they win games without flash, is what Michigan football is all about. Which could be part of the reason we're not ranked higher, we don't have a flashy team, or coach for that matter, we just go out and win games, with rushing yards, clock managment and solid defense. I wish the play calling as well as defense would not get so conservative late in games, even blow outs, but it works, so I won't complain.
I was reading another forum and some folks suggested they were upset about the D line not getting sacks vs minny or MSU but I am impressed with the strategy against two teams the live and die running the ball. Great defensive rushing numbers, and even better lack of QB rushing yards. Hail to the Defense.
- October 09, 2006 12:03 PM

The terminal will continue to provide service to local customers and to be a hub for through-train operations.
NS said the Roanoke hump operation has seen a steady decline in the volume of general merchandise cars handled by about 30 percent since 2006. At the same time, system-wide improvements in the railroad's operations have freed up network capacity, such that classification operations now performed at Roanoke are no longer necessary.
"The employees who work at Roanoke are dedicated and efficient," said Terry Evans, vice president transportation. "But the geographical location and layout of the hump yard make it not only expensive but redundant within our network."
Most of the affected positions are carmen, who inspect and repair railcars and train crews, who conduct switching operations in the yard. Some track maintenance positions are affected.
Norfolk Southern anticipates hiring between 850 and 1,150 employees in 2013 to keep up with attrition. These positions will first be offered to employees affected by the Roanoke change and employees furloughed at other locations.

New pact doesn't dampen Pagan's desire to win
By Chris Haft /2/15/2013 4:46 P.M. ET
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Talk is cheap. Ballplayers aren't. Based on last season, however, one can assume that Angel Pagan's word is gold.
Pagan, the Giants' center fielder and leadoff hitter, reported to camp Friday and vowed to maintain the determined approach that benefited San Francisco during its World Series-winning 2012 season.
Pagan vowed that the four-year, $40 million contract that the Giants gave him last December to remove him from the free-agent market won't impede his drive to excel.
"My bank account did change, but my focus and hunger for the game will never change," said Pagan, 31. "My passion for this game is unbelievable. ... I just want to leave my heart on the field for my teammates and help this club win, not only ballgames but also championships, for four more years."
Pagan's aware that his deal will draw more attention to him. The $10 million average annual value of his pact ranks second among Giants position players only to right fielder Hunter Pence's one-year, $13.8 million contract.
"I signed this contract, and the expectations are really big," Pagan said. "I want to keep doing what I know I can do -- keep being consistent and being a table-setter at the top of the lineup and scoring as many runs as I can for this team."
That described Pagan's 2012 performance. Moved from the leadoff spot to fifth in the batting order about a month into the season, Pagan returned to the top of the order in early August. He put together three hitting streaks of 11 or more games and batted safely in 28 consecutive home games from April 14-June 4, a franchise record.
Pagan's Major League-high 15 triples broke the San Francisco-era record of 12, which had been shared by Willie Mays (1960) and Steve Finley (2006). He established career bests in triples, doubles (38) and runs scored (95), and he hit .288 with 29 stolen bases.
Pagan also grounded into just six double plays in 659 plate appearances, making him one of the National League's most difficult players to double up. Contemporary metrics provided further proof of Pagan's baserunning prowess: He ranked second among NL players with an 8.2 BsR, a statistic which measures baserunning efficiency.
Pagan served as a necessary complement for an offense that ranked last in the Majors with 103 home runs. San Francisco became only the seventh team since 1900 to reach the postseason despite trailing the field in that category.
"I thought it was critical to have another dynamic on our club that would enable us to manufacture runs," manager Bruce Bochy said. "When you don't hit a lot of home runs, you better figure out other ways to score. Speed can do that, whether you steal a base or hit-and-run or bunt a guy over. Pagan did that for us by stealing those bases and getting in scoring position."
After such an active season, Pagan needed a break. He replenished his energy after the World Series by resting for three weeks. "My body asked for it," he said.
Pagan will vanish along with a legion of teammates in early March to play in the World Baseball Classic -- he said that representing his native Puerto Rico "fills my heart" -- but he sounded as motivated as ever to galvanize the Giants.
According to widespread skepticism, the Giants triumphed during the postseason only because they received every possible break. Pagan himself benefited from this sort of good fortune in Game 1 of the World Series, when his third-inning ground ball struck third base and resulted in a double that sparked a three-run rally.
Pagan considered the cynicism and said with a straight face, "We're going to get lucky again, like people say."

ZABBIX is an enterprise-class distributed monitoring solution designed to monitor and track performance and availability of network servers, devices, and other IT resources. It supports distributed and Web-based monitoring, auto-discovery, real-time monitoring, SLA assurance, trending, and more.
DeleGate is a multi-purpose application level gateway or proxy server that mediates communication of various protocols, applying cache and conversion for mediated data, controlling access from clients, and routing toward servers. It translates protocols between clients and servers, converting between IPv4 and IPv6, applying SSL (TLS) to arbitrary protocols, merging several servers into a single server view with aliasing and filtering. It can be used as a simple origin server for some protocols (HTTP, FTP, and NNTP).
The WiKID Strong Authentication System is a highly scalable, secure, self-hosted two-factor authentication system. It is simple to implement and maintain, allows users to be validated automatically, requires no hardware tokens, has a simple API for application support (via Ruby, PHP, Java, COM, Python, etc.), supports multiple domains, and supports replication for fault tolerance and scalability. It also supports mutual /host and transaction authentication, wireless tokens only domains, locked tokens (to your PC), anti-keystroke logger keypad PIN entry, etc.
Pen is a load balancer for "simple" TCP-based protocols such as HTTP or SMTP. It allows several servers to appear as one to the outside. It automatically detects servers that are down and distributes clients among the available servers. This gives high availability and scalable performance.
BalanceNG is a modern, IPv6 capable software IP load balancing solution. It is small, fast, and easy to use and set up. It offers session persistence, different distribution methods (Round Robin, Random, Weighted Random, Least Session, Least Bandwidth, Hash, Agent, and Randomized Agent) and a customizable UDP health check agent in source code. It supports VRRP to set up high availability configurations on multiple nodes. It supports SNMP, integrating the BALANCENG-MIB with Net-SNMPD. It implements a very fast in-memory IP-to-location database, allowing powerful location-based server load-balancing.
LDAP Account Manager (LAM) is a web frontend for managing entries (e.g. users, groups, DHCP settings) stored in an LDAP directory. LAM was designed to make LDAP management as easy as possible for the user. It abstracts from the technical details of LDAP and allows persons without technical background to manage LDAP entries. If needed, power users may still directly edit LDAP entries via the integrated LDAP browser.
OpenNMS is the first enterprise-grade network management platform developed using the open source model. The three main functional areas of OpenNMS are service polling, which monitors services on the network and reports on their "service level"; data collection from the remote systems via SNMP in order to measure the performance of the network; and a system for event management and notifications.
web2ldap is a full-featured Web-based LDAPv3 client written in Python. It is designed to run either as with stand-alone built-in Web server or under the control of another Web server with FastCGI support (e.g. Apache with mod_fastcgi). It has support for various LDAPv3 bind methods and a powerful built-in schema browser. HTML templates are supported for displaying and editing entries, and LDIF templates can be used for quickly adding new entries. A built-in X.509 parser displays a detailed view of certificates and CRLs with active links.
Tor is a network of virtual tunnels that allows people and groups to improve their privacy and security on the Internet. It also enables software developers to create new communication tools with built-in privacy features. It provides the foundation for a range of applications that allow organizations and individuals to share information over public networks without compromising their privacy. Individuals can use it to keep remote Websites from tracking them and their family members. They can also use it to connect to resources such as news sites or instant messaging services that are blocked by their local Internet service providers (ISPs).
