New Yorkers protest Russian anti-gay law, dump vodka
New Yorkers dumped vodka into the gutter outside the Russian Consulate on the Upper East Side Wednesday during a protest of the country's recently-enacted anti-gay law.
"We should not be silent when a country is being oppressive to our friends," said Duncan Osborne, a member of Queer Nation, which helped organize the demonstration.
About 100 protestors picketed outside the consulate, calling for the Russian government to repeal a law passed in June that bans "propaganda of non-traditional sexual relations."
The law has led to an increase in hate crimes, activists said, and would affect tourists, journalists and anyone publicly sharing a pro-gay message. The demonstration in New York was part of a string of protests and boycotts nationwide in responses to the tough measure and another proposed law that would remove children from gay parents.
"It's really hard to believe that we are free when it's limited to some place or some country," said Nina Long, co-founder of the Russian-Speaking American LGBTQ Association and citizen of Belarus, just west of Russia. "You cant be free unless you're free anywhere."
Chanting "We're here, we're queer, we're drinking only beer," the group asked the city to boycott all Russian products—including vodka.
Two bartenders from Boxers NYC, a gay sports bar in Chelsea, dumped six bottles vodka onto the street during the demonstration. Last week, the bar stopped selling all Russian alcohol, including Stolichnaya Vodka.
"We here in New York understand there are ways that we can make a difference," said Robert Fluet, co-owner of Boxers.
Though Stoli CEO Val Mendeleev said the company supports the protestors' objectives and opposes the government's actions in a letter to the LGBT community, Osborne was skeptical of the company's intentions.
"They need to stop trying to convince the gay community to buy their Russian vodka and start telling the Russian government to get rid of these oppressive laws," Osborne said.
Fearing the potential arrest of gay athletes and spectators, protestors also called for a boycott of next year's Winter Olympics in Sochi and for corporations to withdraw their sponsorship of the games.
Bill Dobbs, another member of Queer Nation, said the protests would continue to grow.
"There is plenty of talk about other ways to pressure Russia," Dobbs said.
Long, who has lived in the U.S. since the seventies, is hopeful the protests will make a difference.
"I'm optimistic because I did see change happening so rapidly in America," she said.

N97 Qt Keyboard Codes (QWERTY)
This article shows how Qt reports hardware keyboard keystrokes via a QKeyEvent. In the event are several properties pertaining to the keystroke:
- key
- modifiers
- nativeModifiers
- nativeScanCode
- nativeVirtualKey
- text
For the N97 S60 platform the following key mappings occur:
For all of the graphic keys, key, nativeVirtualKey, and the numeric value of the character in text are identical, and have the ASCII value of the graphic that would be displayed, given the software mode of the keyboard and the shift state. nativeScanCode has the ASCII value of the upper case alphabetic corresponding to the key.
For unshifted keys, modifiers is zero and nativeModifiers is 0x1. If shift is held down during the keystroke, modifiers has a value of 0x2000000 and nativeModifiers has a value of 0x501. If Sym is held down during the keystroke, modifiers has a value of zero and nativeModifiers has a value of 0x2801. If the north-west pointing arrow is held down, modifiers is zero and nativeModifiers has a value of 0x3001.
Of the special keys, backspace (west pointing arrow) has a key value of 0x1000003 (in all shifts), nativeVirtualKey value of 0x8, nativeScanCode value of 0x1. Carriage-return has a key of 0x1000005, nativeVirtualKey of 0xD (ASCII carriage return), nativeScanCode of 0x3.
The left cursor control button has a key of 0x1000012, nativeVirtualKey of 0xF807, nativeScanCode of 0xE. The right cursor control button has a key of 0x1000014, nativeVirtualKey of 0xF808, nativeScanCode of 0xF. The up button has a key of 0x1000013, nativeVirtualKey of 0xF809, nativeScanCode of 0x10. The down button has a key of 0x1000015, a nativeVirtualKey of 0xF80A, nativeScanCode of 0x11. The center button has a key of 0x1010000, nativeVirtualKey of 0xF845, nativeScanCode of 0xA7.
None of the above special key values appear to be affected by any of the shift keys, although the modifiers are the same as with the alphabetic keys.

"AAA Rating" for Louisville Water Company
Standard & Poor praises the company's strong financial operations
(March 04, 2013) Standard & Poor's Rating Services has affirmed its "AAA" long term and underlying ratings for the Board of Water Works' revenue bonds. The Board is the governing body for Louisville Water which serves over 850,000 people in Louisville Metro and surrounding counties.
In a report released March 1, Standard & Poor continues to give Louisville Water its highest rating, noting the strong financial operations of the company, the long-term planning efforts and the risk management and controls that Louisville Water has in place.
Standard & Poor's Ratings Report was part of a three year review process, as Louisville Water was last reviewed in December of 2009. Currently, Louisville Water holds $275 million in bonds to finance the company's capital improvement plan.
"This affirmation of our AAA rating reinforces the fact that Louisville Water is a fiscally sound company," said Amber Halloran, Louisville Water Vice President and Treasurer. "The careful planning and oversight by staff and our Board continues to produce an outstanding return for the city of Louisville and exceptional water quality for our customers."
Standard & Poor noted the historically strong financial operations of Louisville Water and said in its opinion "these trends should continue." The report credits the stable outlook to a large and steadily growing user base, Louisville Water's willingness to raise rates each year and the long-term planning efforts to create a more predictable framework for financial performance.
A summary of the ratings report is available at Standardandpoors.com. Standard & Poor first gave Louisville Water a AAA Rating in December of 2009.

The quest for junior road bikes
At the start of 2011, my two children (Arlo aged 6 and Greta aged 5) started attending Palmer Park Velo (PPV) cycling club. They have always loved being on their bikes and were keen to have a go on the track at the velodrome.
As most young children do at PPV, they started riding sessions on their mountain bikes. Key bike handling skills were taught in a safe, controlled environment by the wonderful coaches.
However, it wasn't long before Arlo wanted to have a go on a road bike. You could see him watching the older children riding the track and longing to have a go. Luckily PPV has a supply of bikes in a variety of sizes for children to have a go on. They don't charge for using the bikes, and it helps children give it a go, before parents have to pay out for one of their own!
Arlo started out by riding the smallest road bikes they have at the club — an Islabike Reis 20 converted into a freewheel with brakes. They are fantastic bikes. Very light and easy to ride, which is ideal when the riders are aged 5-7.
After a few weeks of borrowing a club bike, it was obvious Arlo was keen to continue going to training and I started to look around for a bike of his own. He could have continued to ride a club bike, but with the club having increased membership almost every week, and the small Islabikes in high demand it didn't seem right. He now has his own junior road bike, as does Greta who still rides the club bikes whilst gaining confidence.
This blog will record the problems I had finding road bikes for children, how I fixed up battered eBay purchases, what bikes are on the market and more.

update includes three new P500 additions, updated charging and shipping info, an
updated Production Outlook, and lots of other news tidbits. I hope you enjoy it.
I'll spend the majority of my column this time talking about Reprints and
Electronic Games.
Hunters 2nd Printing!!
The Hunters, from ConsimPress, sold out in about a month!!! As I noted back when
we first put this game on our P500 for John Kranz, this game is something
special. Given that there are lots of gamers still asking to buy it, we're
working with John to get a 2nd Printing out as quickly as we can get the files
to the printers and the presses rolling.
you missed out on the original printing, or if you'd just like to get a 2nd copy
for when the first one wears out (and this is one of those games that you want
to play so much that you DO wear it out!), please go to our P500 Reprint Page for The
Hunters 2nd Printing (or click the graphic below) to reserve your copy.
Thanks for your support of the game and for the great work John and his teams
are doing at ConsimPress.
Help Us Get our CDGs Reprinted
you'd like more details on how Reprints work at GMT, click to read this P500 Reprints article on
our website.
as you guys have probably noticed, we've been increasing our ability to reprint
more of our out of stock games over the past couple of years. The biggest reason
for this is that you guys are buying more of our new games, which gives us more
strategic reserves to allocate to keeping more of our games in print.
a heads-up about what we see coming and what we'd like to reprint in 2014.
the near future, the games we know for certain that we'll reprint are:
last note on this subject. Several of you have asked us to PLEASE tell you
EXACTLY what is in each reprint. And the answer is that we rarely know EXACTLY
until we get a full list of what the designer wants in there and we need to
determine demand well in advance of that stage. So I want to ask you to meet me
halfway on that one. Here's my half:
I can tell you that ALL of the above reprint editions will come with a mounted
mapboard, updated rules and charts to cover any errata and any other updates or
upgrades that the designer wants and we can feasibly include.
I'd also note that because we don't get to do reprints very often, we'll put
everything we can, within price-point constraints, into these editions in terms
of both quality and content.
your half, I'd ask you to order the games you'd like anyway, knowing that a) you
can always easily cancel your order down the road if you are not happy and b) we
will give you EXACT details on what's in the game well in advance of any charge
date, and c) If there are major component updates, we'll offer update kits for
sale that you can switch your order to later if you'd rather have those.
now, we just really need to see what the real demand is for each of these games.
So please support us with your orders, and help us get these games back in
for your help!
January I take most of the month to do a strategic assessment of the company and
identify specific areas that we need to improve. This year, one of the top items
on my list is the Electronic Games side of the house. Given, we're trying to
create these games and run this division with almost no budget, but still,
progress on the development and launch of Electronic Games has been slow,
painful, and very frustrating.
the end of the day, I am personally responsible for the Electronic Games side of
GMT, so I guess I'd have to give myself a failing grade in this area for 2013.
We had a few developers give up on their projects and had a bunch of delays on
Twilight Struggle and Dominant Species, so on the surface, not a lot of good
the plus side, we haven't given up(!), and we're smarter and more experienced
than we were a year ago. And we have added some new design partners over the
past few months, and should begin to see product from those guys in 2014.
a look at a few of our projects, with my best take at a current status
Struggle: This is the one that's just taken WAY longer than we thought,
and some of our customers are frustrated. Well, I am, too, and I've come to the
conclusion that I just don't really know what to tell you guys, as testing IS
progressing and new features ARE getting added, but it's just going REALLY
slowly. It almost seemed to me like a "never finished" cycle, so I checked with
the developers, and they said they could really use more focus and attention and
resources from us to get this thing to the finish line.
I am committed to getting these guys whatever they need to get this game
finished as soon as possible. My first step was to get someone with expertise
who has not been involved in the project to give me a detailed assessment of
where it all stands today. Enter Mitch Land, our webmaster (and a good designer
in his own right) who has run and finished lots of programming projects in his
"real job," to work with the dev team and give me a thorough assessment as to
EXACTLY what's left to complete and what resources are needed to finish the
game. Once I have that information from Mitch, we'll provide resources and lay
out schedule. When I have that in hand, I will be in a position to tell all of
you exactly where we are and what to expect in terms of final testing and
anticipated release dates.
just want to thank you guys for your patience with us and with the good folks at
Rivermyst. This has definitely been a learning experience (and a bit of a trial)
for all of us. But I still believe, having played various prototypes, that it's
going to be worth it when the game is in all our hands.
Species (iPad). I just spoke to the project lead on the Dominant
Species team late last week. The art and sound side of the upgrade is in good
shape and they have a framework in place to run the AI that is just WAY better
than what we had before. They still need to add the details, working in
coordination with Chad, and that should begin by early February. I think the
only thing left after that is the GameCenter integration, and I'm actually not
sure on where they are with that, but will get you that info in the next
not on this program team, which is what always makes it hard for me to give you
guys any definitive timing on releases, but I can tell you that we've made a lot
of progress and it's getting closer. More as I know it....
NightFighter (PC and
iPad). We're opening P500 ordering today on the PC version of
NightFighter. I think you guys are going to like the UI that the dev team has
created here - makes it really easy to play the game and keep situational
awareness without a lot of clutter on the screen. A bunch of scenarios will keep
you busy with this one for a long time!
with any PC game that we produce, this will be a "direct from GMT" PC product,
and we'll offer 30% + discounts to folks who pre-order. We're looking at 2nd
half of 2014 to release the game, and our intention at this point is to release
the PC and iPad versions concurrently. So please, if you're interested in
playing Nightfighter on your PC, order today!
& Colors: We
are still working with Playdek on Commands & Colors. I hope to have some
details for you on progress by next month's update.
have other games in development, but I don't want to tell you about those until
they are further along in the dev process. I should be seeing playable alph
versions of a couple of the iPad games this quarter, and will introduce you to
those games once I've seen them.
again for all your support and patience as we work to create GMT games for your
PCs and tablets!

This dish was delicious. I liked the Dijon-cheese combination. I actually used Cheddar instead of Gruyere. Unlike the other reviewer, I needed the whole cooking time for my chops. I guess it depends on the meat or the thickness of the chops. The only thing I didn't like about the recipe is that most of the cheese came out on the skillet. I served this with roast potatoes.

It includes such information as language specifying the appointed escrow agent, and specific sections for each of the following: descriptions of any definitions pertinent to the agreement, the escrow fund and release of funds, and the acceptable use of funds by the escrow agent, the duties and liabilities of the escrow agent, the escrow agent's fees and expenses, and the jurisdiction and venue in the event of a legal action.

Practical Ruby Projects
Chapter 2: Making Music with RubyBy
Learn advanced programming techniques and explore Ruby's full potential through a varied series of exciting projects
In this chapter, you're going to build a music system from the ground up in Ruby. The goals are (of course) to use Ruby, make getting started easy, and keep it simple enough for users to extend. Music theory is, alas, beyond the scope of this chapter (and I'm not the guy to teach it anyway). But hopefully this will be enough to make you dangerous. You can always learn the rest later.

Vanessa Hudgens stopped by Good Day Atlanta to chat with Karen Graham about her new film, Gimmie Shelter, which chronicles the story of a young homeless, pregnant teenager.
The film, which also stars James Earl Jones, Rosario Dawson and Brendan Fraser, is a break from Hudgens' normal roles. During her interview, Hudgens says she knew she wanted the role as soon as she read the script.
"I went to the audition as the character. I knew I wanted that role," said Hudgens.
According to Hudgens, the director didn't want to cast a "Hollywood type," so she set out on a quest to prove she was "worth her salt." The director sent her audition tape to the shelter being portrayed in the film and the women unanimously chose her tape for the role.
To prepare for the role, Hudgens lived at a shelter for two weeks and said she tried to dig "deep and dark" to morph into the character. While filming, Hudges says she changed and that "sometimes you have to go to the darkest place in your life to learn to love yourself."
The film opens on Friday, Januray 24.

All those fancy cooks at the New York Times are proposing exciting ways to cook your Thanksgiving turkey. Why shove your bird into the oven on a roasting pan, they ask, when you know that's just a one-way ticket to the ho hums?
According to the New York Times, you should STEAM your turkey.
But if that's too much work, then you should BRAISE the bird or — better yet — SPATCHCOCK the sucker.
We will not be outdone by those commonplace techniques here at the AJC. If you really want to impress guests far beyond any way they might be momentarily wowed by a New York Times turkey, may we propose one of these five exciting new preparation methods:

2. … Never mind.
Great piece, John. It seems to me that until the last 10-15 years or so, just about every American cook had been doing some variation of shoving a whole Thanksgiving turkey in the oven. Now, every celebrity chef and wanna-be is seemingly reaching for "the next big thing" in Thanksgiving turkey. Okay, brining–I get it. Frying–I get it. Enough. I wish they would leave the culinary one-upsmanship and relentless pursuit of perfection in Kitchen Stadium while we at home enjoy the simple annual tradition of roast turkey more or less in the same way generations have cooked it.

According to Pravana Artistic Director Vadre Grigsby, grunge is making a comeback in a big way. Kristen Stewart went orange, Katy Perry went green and Amber Heard is sporting a dip-dyed punk style.
"This will mean dark roots, fun, faded-color ends and long, straight, unbothered-with hair," says Grigsby. "I can see the trend of cornrow braids tying in here for those who want to lightly relive shaved sides. Grunge back then was a mix of bohemian free-spirit with the irreverence of punk rock. Although we haven't dove completely off the stage into the anarchy of stringy, straight texture, get ready for the lived-in look."
Amber Heard's Pastel Princess Meets Rebel Street Girl:
Pre-lighten the lengths to level 10 without any yellow (deepen the base to ChromaSilk 4N with 10 volume for deposit only, if needed) shampoo, and dry the hair. Mix 3 parts VIVIDS Pink with 1 part VIVIDS Magenta and apply this formula to the first 3 inches of light hair closest to the dark hair. Next, take what is left of the mixture and add 2 parts PASTELS Pretty in Pink with 2 parts VIVIDS Clear. Apply this through the remaining lengths of the hair. Process 20 minutes at room temperature, shampoo and style (or un-style in this case) as desired.
Katy Perry's "Green Slime" look:
Prelighten the lengths to level 9 pale yellow (deepen the base to ChromaSilk 4N with 10 volume for deposit only, if needed) shampoo, and dry the hair. Mix 2 parts VIVIDS Yellow, 2 parts VIVIDS Clear, 3 parts PASTELS Mystical Mint and 3 part PASTELs Blissful Blue. Apply through the pre-lightened ends. Process 20 minutes at room temperature, shampoo and style as desired.

When a Cold Becomes Bronchitis
Can I Treat Bronchitis at Home?
If you have bronchitis you should:
- Drink fluids every one to two hours unless your doctor has restricted your fluid intake
- Rest
- Don't smoke
- Relieve body aches by taking aspirin or acetaminophen. (If you are taking any other drugs, talk to your doctor to make sure aspirin or acetaminophen doesn't interfere with them. Children should NOT take aspirin. Also, the FDA and manufacturers now say that over-the-counter cough and cold medicines should not be given to children under 4.)
- Follow your doctor's instructions on ways to help clear your mucus.
- If you are coughing up mucus, note how often you cough as well as the color and amount of the mucus. Report this to your doctor.
If you have a dry cough and cough up little to no mucus, your doctor may prescribe a cough medicine to suppress your cough. He or she may also prescribe an expectorant to help loosen mucus so it can be more easily coughed up.
Because viruses cause most cases of bronchitis, antibiotics will not be useful or necessary. Exceptions would be bronchitis caused by a bacterial infection or bronchitis in a person who has impaired lung function.
How Can I Avoid Getting Bronchitis?
- Don't smoke.
- Don't allow others to smoke in your home.
- Stay away from or reduce your time around things that irritate your nose, throat, and lungs, such as dust or pets.
- If you catch a cold, get plenty of rest.
- Take your medicine exactly the way your doctor tells you.
- Eat a healthy diet.
- Wash your hands often.
- Do not share food, cups, glasses, or eating utensils.

Take care and stay safe.
Harry, thanks for the encouragement. I'm so used to running with work, volunteering with the boy scouts, etc that I'm not used to going this slow. I do appreciate the words very much.
Thanks for the visit. I will wish Nancy a Happy Birthday. Recovery is going well, so far. I go back to the dr on Tues. and hopefully he will release me to go back to work. I'm not sure if it will be regular duty or light duty. Anything is fine with me. 5 months of doing nothing is very long, boring, almost making me go crazy. At least I didn't have to go too far to get there...lol. Thanks for everything and stay safe.....Craig
Ya this getting old stuff has its good and bad points.
By the way, just noticed we have the same birthday...
Thanks for stopping in. I hope all is well with you and yours. Thanks for the heads up. I'll do my best to have some fun with it. Have a great week and stay safe.

I saw you were on, so I thought I would say 'Hi'...Have a good day Harry!!
Morning Harry, I would think that releasing that information would be an Officer safety issue wouldn't it. Is there case law that will prevent the defense from forcing the release of such information ?

Congratulations to my Eagles for beating the crap out of Dallas
Samhain was a Gaelic harvest festival held on October 31–November 1. It was linked to festivals held around the same time in other Celtic cultures, and was popularised as the "Celtic New Year" from the late 19th century, following Sir John Rhys and Sir James Frazer. The date of Samhain was associated with the Catholic All Saints' Day (and later All Souls' Day) from at least the 8th century, and both the secular Gaelic and the Catholic liturgical festival have influenced the secular customs now connected with Halloween.
The medieval Goidelic festival of Samhain marked the end of the harvest, the end of the "lighter half" of the year and beginning of the "darker half". It was celebrated over the course of several days and had some elements of a Festival of the Dead. Bonfires played a large part in the festivities. People and their livestock would often walk between two bonfires as a cleansing ritual, and the bones of slaughtered livestock were cast into its flames.

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) -- A New York state trooper died Tuesday from injuries he suffered when his police cruiser was rear-ended by a tractor-trailer shortly after he pulled over a car for speeding on the Thruway, authorities said.
Trooper David Cunniff, 35, was inside his patrol car behind the car he had pulled over on Interstate 90's eastbound lanes around 8:20 p.m. Monday, when his cruiser was hit by the big rig and he was partially thrown from his vehicle, State Police Superintendent Joseph D'Amico said. The truck also hit the car, injuring the driver.
The trooper suffered massive head trauma and was airlifted to Albany Medical Center, where he died Tuesday afternoon, the superintendent said.
The announcement of the trooper's death came in a news release soon after D'Amico had finished giving details of the crash during a news conference held at the State Police Academy in Albany.
D'Amico said neither alcohol nor weather was considered a factor in the crash, and police were still investigating.
He said the trooper's vehicle and the car Cunniff stopped were near Exit 27 in Amsterdam, about 30 miles northwest of Albany. He said the tractor-trailer was traveling east in the right lane and drove off the road for some unknown reason near where the trooper's car was idling with its emergency lights on.
The truck slammed into the back of the trooper's car, sending it 50 yards into an embankment, then rammed the other car, moving it 75 yards and landing on top of it, D'Amico said.
Police said the driver of the car, 57-year-old Eric Heller of Stone Creek in Warren County, was in fair condition at the Albany hospital. The truck driver, Gary Blakley, 65, of Ridgeway, Ontario, wasn't injured. His truck was hauling insulation, police said.
Both eastbound lanes of I-90 were closed for nearly 10 hours after the crash, and eastbound traffic was detoured off the highway at an exit near Syracuse.
Cunniff, of Duanesburg, was a nine-year state police veteran who had been working with Thruway patrol since 2009, the superintendent said. He is survived by his wife and two young sons.
Cunniff's death is the second within the past several weeks involving an on-duty trooper. On Nov. 20, Trooper Ross Riley died after falling from a ledge in a gorge in a state park in western New York during a training exercise.
In 2011, New York state instituted its "move over" law that requires motorists to slow down and move over if possible when approaching police and emergency vehicles pulled over alongside the road. Three months after the law went into effect, Trooper Kevin Dobson was killed when he was hit by a vehicle while issuing a speeding ticket alongside a highway in suburban Buffalo.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo released this statement:
"It is with a heavy heart that we learn New York State Police Trooper David W. Cunniff has passed away as a result of serious injuries from a vehicle accident while he was on duty last night. I send my deepest condolences to Trooper Cunniff's family and friends during this painful time. Trooper Cunniff was only 35 years old and had already dedicated nine years of service to the State Police. He leaves behind a wife and two young sons who I hope will remember their father as a true hero here in New York. On behalf of all New Yorkers, we are deeply grateful for his service, and his loved ones are in our thoughts and prayers."
Cuomo directed flags on state government buildings to be flown at half-staff on Thursday, December 19, in Cunniff's honor.

In a word: desperation. We are seeing it right now. Both of them know that the Mets can't have another year like they had last year, or else they are both gone. At the same time, ownership did not give Minaya the keys to go out and drastically overspend on the free agent market. In many ways, that was a good thing; it prevented the team from signing Bengie Molina, for one, and the team did not go crazy trading prospects for short-term solutions. In many ways, it was also a bad thing; the starting rotation is perilously thin, and it led to the team bringing back Alex Cora as "the devil they know" rather than pursuing a better middle infield reserve like Felipe Lopez and Adam Everett, both of whom signed with teams for less money than the Mets will pay Cora. It seems silly that the team would not pursue a better reserve shortstop with Jose Reyes coming off of injury, but that's the New York Mets for you; such incompetence is sadly expected at this point, and will remain that way until Minaya and Manuel are gone.
Ironically, one area of the team where the Mets are not particularly undermanned is the bullpen. Between Frankie, Feliciano, Igarashi, Calero, Parnell, Green, Nieve (assuming Niese wins the 5th starter job), Takahashi, and Figueroa, somewhere in there is a pretty good seven man bullpen. They have enough internal candidates already to where a young, promising arm like Jenrry Mejia should only be concerned with going to Double-A (not even Triple-A) to master control of his secondary pitches, work on command, and keep stretched out as a starter to hopefully benefit the big league Mets, at the earliest, in the second half of 2011.
The middle infield is an area of a little bit more concern, though no thanks to the fools in charge. Thanks to Alex Cora being retained as the middle infield reserve due to his great leadership abilities, (another good reason to fire Manuel; they value his leadership so little that they employ a player to help lead the team) the team doesn't have a backup shortstop that they actually trust to start everyday should their starter, the great Jose Reyes, find himself injured. Considering that Reyes was coming off of a severe hamstring injury in 2009, you would think that they would make it a priority to have a middle infield reserve that they trust should he miss time. As it turns out, the hamstring isn't a problem, but Reyes is suffering from a thyroid condition that will keep him out of action for the first month or two of the season.Â
Since the team doesn't actually trust Alex Cora, 20 year old prospect Ruben Tejada now seems likely to make the team. While Tejada will almost surely be a huge defensive improvement over Alex Cora at shortstop, he will give a lot of that improvement back with his inability to handle major league pitching. This is a guy who is only a year removed from a .229/.293/.296 line in Single-A, and while that may be an improvement over some of the reserve shortstops we saw with Reyes out last year, that is still in no way major league-ready. It would be nice to see Tejada master the International League before being promoted to the major leagues, just to make sure that 2009 wasn't a BABIP-inflated fluke.
Yet because Omar Minaya and Jerry Manuel need to save their jobs, they need a success story or two, to hide their many failures. That is what Mejia and Tejada represent; a chance for them to show that the farm system is producing players, that they can work within the restrictions that the Wilpon family has put on them. They have nothing to lose; if Mejia and Tejada succeed, Minaya and Manuel look like geniuses for a minute or two. If they fail, hey, Minaya and Manuel are likely getting fired at some point before October of 2010 anyway, so what do they lose?
It's not as grievous a mistake with Tejada as it is with Mejia. At least with Tejada, we can assume his stay in the majors will be short, only long enough for Reyes to return from the disabled list, assuming Cora doesn't suffer some grizzly thumb-related injury before that can happen. Whenever Reyes is back from injury, Tejada will be sent back to Buffalo after finding himself completely and totally overmatched offensively in the majors, even if he represents a huge upgrade defensively from Cora. It's still an ill-advised decision, and proof that this team has absolutely no idea how to build organizational depth (Russ Adams is 4th on the organizational depth chart solely as a token ex-major leaguer to appease the Bisons front office, not because he's somebody the major league team would ever consider bringing up), but somewhat justifiable. Playing in the majors for 2-4 weeks shouldn't hinder his development.
Bringing Mejia to the majors as a reliever this soon, however, that is borderline malpractice. Mejia can probably hold his own for a little while in the majors. He may even be preferable to keep around over players like Bobby Parnell or Sean Green. I don't need to go into too much detail as to why, as dozens have done so before me. The key point is, Mejia's ceiling is too high to waste in a role where he won't be forced to work on his secondary offerings, and he should only be used in the bullpen when he proves completely incapable of becoming a starting pitcher. We may not know what he will become, but limiting his ceiling this early in his development is the work of desperate men.
And that's the problem with keeping Manuel and Minaya around when management has a pretty good idea that they probably aren't long-term solutions for the role. Much like Omar Minaya has proven unable to handle sunk costs like Luis Castillo, so too have the Wilpons shown an inability to handle sunk costs like Jerry Manuel and Omar Minaya. Clearly, by the restrictions Omar had in free agency this offseason, they don't view him as a long-term solution, so limiting his ability to do long-term harm in free agency was a wise move. But he can still do long-term harm without making a single move by being trusted with minor league promotions when, in reality, the progression of minor leaguers are only important to him if the team wins and he can retain his job.Â
The problem is even worse with Manuel; he keeps pushing for the team to promote Mejia because if Mejia's ETA isn't until mid-2011 at the earliest, Mejia can't help him if the team sucks again this year. But he sees that electric fastball, which is definitely major league ready, and that he can get batters out in a relief role once or twice around the league. Considering that the bullpen has remained an issue for this team dating back to before Manuel was even the manager, Manuel needs every advantage he can find to retain his job. The problem has become that, in the case of Mejia, Manuel's short-term job security should not outweigh Mejia's long-term potential, without even factoring in how much better this team would be if Manuel did get fired. Yet that seems to be what's happening.
The outside forces, the same outside forces that told Omar Minaya "Thou shalt not offer Bengie Molina a two year contract" need to step in here. They need to recognize that Mejia is not ready for the majors, and that he needs far more developmental time than he is being given. They need to see that Minaya and Manuel are only promoting him in a last-ditch effort to save their jobs, that the team's future outweighs theirs, and they need to put a halt to the overpromotion game. Supposedly, Tony Bernazard's firing meant the end of prospects being promoted well before they were ready, but clearly, that's not the case. The 2010 Mets are a team built on desperation, but for once, can they show some caution here?

Dustin Sage farms with his dad outside of Dunkerton. He said he's looking for rain for his crops, but he's also looking for Washington to make a decision.
"Trying to keep my sanity this year," Sage said. "But, all things considered, we're doing all right compared to some people."
The delay in the Farm Bill has made farmers like Sage uncertain about the future.
"If there is anything you need in agriculture, it's long-term planning," said U.S. Sen. Charles Grassley. "Having a five-year Farm Bill gives you five years to plan ahead."
Farmers said they are most uncertain about funding for crop insurance and the conservation reserve program.
"For the most part, in most farmers' day-to-day life, it's not the be-all and end-all that it once was when we had very low grain prices," said Bill Northey, Iowa Secretary of Agriculture. "But it's still important to get on with it and get it done and have the certainty of that program."
About 80 percent of the bill pertains to the food stamp assistance program, but earlier this month the United States House of Representatives passed a version of the bill without that program.
It's a decision U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack doesn't agree with.
"If they know their constituents are going to receive some assistance when they're struggling, that makes it more likely they're going to vote in favor of those farm programs," said Vilsack.
Vilsack says it's important to note that when food stamps are used at the grocery store, it benefits farmers.
"Fifteen cents of every food dollar that's spent at grocery stores goes ultimately to farmers through the supply chain," Vilsack said. "So if you're going to cut SNAP assistance or food stamp assistance, you're also going to cut farm income."
He says if income for farmers goes down, food prices will go up.
"Food prices have actually a really big link between government policies and the farm level, and ultimately the grocery shelf," said Sage.
Grassley thinks the bill will pass before the current Farm Bill expires on Sept. 30.

Which perks are you tied to? +10% justice or honor points? (Play for long enough, you won't have a good use for them.) 20% less repair cost? (10% to 8%, y'know. Well, that's what daily quests are for anyway, right?) Instant guild bank access? (Follow the Boy Scout creed: Be Prepared! ... and have an engineer along for the bots...) +10% reputation? (taking 11 days instead of 10 days isn't THAT bad...)
Remember that any guild items (mounts, pets, banners, etc) are things you take with you. (Take a +guildRep tabard. It'll be handy!) You won't be leaving them behind.
If you are joining a brand new guild, it's still bright and shiny. You will be a noticable factor in the guild's success. And if joining some established guild, well! You wanted to do guild instance runs with them anyway to get to know them, right? And here you're getting paid (reputation) to do so!
What I would miss most, moving to a new guild, is all the people I would have to leave behind. My friends list isn't big enough, darnit!
