Strength and Stamina for New YearVinyasa Flow | By Jason Crandell on Jan 05 2011
Do you want to start the New Year by cultivating strength and stamina in your body, while also committing to a practice of seated meditation? If so, here's your practice! This vigorous morning sequence will lead you through 4 different types of sun salutations before guiding you through a wide-array of standing poses. Toss in an inversion, some hip-opening, twisting and mild-backbending before a 5-minute seated meditation and you have the formula for this nourishing, balanced practice.

- Jason Crandell May 27th, 2014Sarah - So glad you like this one. For similar practice, check out an of my "continuous flow" or "feel good flow" practices. There are also a handful with the word "strength" in the title. These should treat you right!

Unfortunately (or fortunately), I was shot down with a chest infection and have replaced my morning runs and running drills with yoga for the next couple of weeks. I absolutely LOVE this class!!

- Christine K Jun 5th, 2013Thank you so much for this amazing practice. The message really has changed how I am approaching things - not doing things just to do them, but participating in my life fully.

- Dominique DuBois Feb 26th, 2012Fantastic class! Love staying present to the experience, not moving past it to mark it off as having "done it." Thank you.
- Amy Affelt Dec 29th, 2011I have been trying to do hanumanasana every day for over a year (I realize that is doing something just to do it, sorry about that). I am super tight from running and I am always close but not completely down. Well, I did this class today and at the "do a pose you are craving" part, I did hanumanasana completely for the first time ever. It was only on one side but still, I am so psyched! I think all of the sun sals warmed me up so much that I was able to do it. Thank you, thank you, thank you, and Happy New Year!

- Becka Janse Jan 7th, 2011Thanks for a lovely practice and your insightful comments about New Year's resolutions.
- Carol Allen Jan 7th, 2011I think this is my favorite sun salutation practice! Great progressive sequencing. I felt invigorated and calm at the conclusion. Thanks for the tip of exhaling when lifting the legs in handstand. It worked. Also, I appreciated the reminder to pay attention to the position of the bent leg in Warrior I & II.
- Josie Torres Jan 6th, 2011Enjoyed the practice. Thank you. :)
- Cheryl Parsons Jan 6th, 2011Thanks Jason, really enjoyed your words and practice, especially the parts about not just doing your practice and the poses for the sake of it.
- Ann Constantino Jan 6th, 2011I have a split shift in my work a lot this time of year, and typically don't do an asana practice in the time between shifts, but was determined to get one in yesterday. It was exactly as you said, I wanted to do it to have done it. So perfect to hear your message and rearrange my thinking and have a great present practice. Thanks.
- Jason Crandell Jan 6th, 2011I can think of no better way to sit than to sit with a dog doing it's dog-like things all the while!
- Ronni Hendel Jan 6th, 2011Lovely, well-rounded practice to start the day. I love the message of not doing your practice just to do your practice--a great reminder to be in your practice.
- Gemma Ford Jan 6th, 2011Thanks Jason :-)
- Noelle Zmuda Jan 5th, 2011my dog decided to get up from her stillness during precisely the last 5 mins and come upstairs to lick my face and knock me with her tail. I didn't tell her NO and just tried to be an observer and by the end I was laughing out loud and it felt soo great! I'd like to think she was wondering why we humans even have to take the time to practice not doing anything:) anyway, thanks!

Korean Chamber of Commerce suggests ways to boost domestic consumptionUpdated: 2014-06-26 06:28:22 KST
The Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry made suggestions for improving business climates in Korea to keep investment and jobs in the country.
In its report released on Wednesday, the chamber said excessive regulations prompted many Korean businessmen to build factories abroad.
Last year, overseas investment by Korean companies accounted for more than 27 percent of their investment at home -- triple the amount from nine years ago.
The Chamber suggested the government should introduce new regulations gradually to give local businessmen time to adapt to changes such as extending the retirement age, expanding maternity leave and reducing working hours.
It also calls for tax breaks and other incentives for companies relocating factories to Korea from overseas, saying the U.S., Germany and Japan all offered such sweeteners.
The chamber said deregulation was particularly necessary in the service sector, including tourism and the medical industry.
To attract some of the 100 million Chinese who travel overseas every year to Korea, it said the government must simplify the visa process and take steps to expand accommodations and the pool of service professionals.
It also urged the government to allow hospitals to set up for-profit subsidiaries to accommodate the surging medical tourism sector.
The number of medical tourists visiting Korea is around one-tenth the amount that go to Thailand.

Access "Startups Have Bigger, Faster Alternatives to Traditional NAS"
This article is part of the Vol. 2 No. 9 November 2003 issue of Expanding SANs: How to scale today's storage networks
According to recent data from Gartner Inc., IT departments continue to buy more network-attached storage (NAS), with total NAS revenues increasing by 11.9% in 2003. And in the high end, those NAS dollars continue to go to market leaders Network Appliance Inc. (NetApp) and EMC Corp. But that dynamic may be about to change, now that there are other high-performance NAS startups on the scene, including BlueArc, Spinnaker Systems and as of last month, Isilon Systems and Panasas. Not so long ago, "what were your choices if you needed a [Network Appliance] 940 or 960 class system?" asks Jeff Hornung, vice president of marketing at Spinnaker Networks, in Pittsburg, PA. The answer? "Nothing." According to Hornung, Spinnaker earned some impressive sales this past quarter, with systems shipping to major financial institutions, oil and gas outfits, a semi-conductor manufacturer and the entertainment industry. The company is witnessing 100% quarter over quarter growth, selling a 50/50 mix of diskless (gateway) and complete NAS arrays, he claims. Another NAS vendor to ... Access >>>

text: It has been quite some time since we posted anything, there is a pretty good reason for this. A few months ago I moved to New Jersey to go back to school and get my life on track. I miss California so much and have every intention of moving back in the future. I have tons of files to go through from California and from my road trip to the east coast that I have been meaning to post here, but honestly they were making me too sad and homesick. But I don't want to see this blog die so I am going to make an effort to post more often. Like I said I have plenty of photos to post (plus Kate is heading to the east coast in a few weeks and we will adventure!) so you can expect this to come back with vengeance!

This isn't good news for the Los Angeles Clippers.
Chris Broussard of ESPN reports that soon-to-be unrestricted free agent Chris Paul is angry at the Clips for giving off the notion that he's the reason that Vinny Del Negro was fired.
"He's angry right now and his anger is directed toward the Clippers organization," the source said. "Chris is a man of principle and if he feels like you've gone against his principles, it will affect how he feels about you. He's very agitated that his name has been put out there as the reason for Vinny's firing. He had nothing to do with it."
True or not, Del Negro believes Paul got him fired, according to a source close to the Clippers' ex-coach. The source added that Del Negro had no idea during the regular season or the playoffs that Paul wanted him out. On an appearance on the Dan Patrick radio show, Del Negro implied on Thursday that Paul was the reason he was let go.
via Source: Chris Paul 'angry' with Clips – ESPN Los Angeles
Horrible timing for the Clippers. The future of this franchise depends on whether they re-sign Chris Paul this summer. There was never a guarantee that he'd sign with the club, but the word was that he'd be back. There's no room for error as Dallas, Indiana, Atlanta or any other team with enough cap space to sign a max contract and contend come next season will be waiting in the shadows.
But now, things are held in a different light. And this isn't surprising. This is the Clippers we're talking about here and they have a history of being slightly incompetent (hi Donald Sterling!). After two years of being a respectable franchise, losing CP would push this franchise back to the dark days. The days where this club was the laughing stock of the league and the worst team in Los Angeles. That's what's on the line here.
Whether Chris Paul was the reason that Del Negro was fired, it doesn't matter for the front office. They'll be spending their entire summer attempting to clear the air so that they and Paul can get back on good terms. Luckily for Los Angeles they can $108 million over the course of five years on Paul which is $28 million more than any other team in the league can offer.
Outside of that the playing field may have become even. Entering his ninth year, Paul wants to win. He'll weigh his options carefully. Unless he's joining Dwight Howard and Dirk Nowitzki in Dallas or Paul George and Roy Hibbert in Indiana, the supporting cast won't be as good as what he has now. Maybe he could push a sign-and-trade to finally join forces with Carmelo Anthony and Amare Stoudemire in New York.
No one knows, but with this news emerging it makes for an interesting summer ahead for Paul and the Clippers.

Disaster Exercise Management, Part 1: Performance Measurement
Studying the results of your emergency exercise is the key to obtaining the most from your training exercises
Timeliness -- Perhaps the most frequently cited and arguably most important exercise performance measurement category is timeliness. Timeliness measures that might come to mind first are those relating to the management of the exercise, i.e., the times that key events, tasks and decisions start and end.
However, the scope of timeliness measurements spans far outside the box of scheduling and project timelines. In particular, of greater importance to evaluating preparedness are measures of how much time was taken for specific "mission critical" tasks and decisions. For example,
- From the time of first biohazard detection, how quickly did the security team seal off the building's ventilation system?
- How many minutes into the disaster did the CEO decide to send people home versus shelter them?
- For how long were the denial of service attacks allowed to persist before the internal network was restricted from outside connections?
- At what point in the disaster exercise did the CIO become fully apprised of the situation?
Operational measures like these and others are needed to rate how well prepared the exercise team is to perform in a live disaster. Merely completing an exercise that ran according to schedule is not enough. Having precise measures of time intervals for mission critical tasks and decisions is essential to knowing whether or not the disaster response capabilities of the organization are ready to avoid business operations meltdown, property loss, impairment of critical infrastructure and casualties.
Effectiveness -- While speed of execution and punctuality are often key measures, how well mission-critical tasks and decisions are carried out may be of equal or greater importance. Such measures of effectiveness can address procedural compliance (e.g., Were evacuation procedures followed properly?) as well as the results of activities performed or decisions made during the course of the exercise (e.g., How many gallons of oil spilled over the containment barrier?, How many patients were diagnosed and inoculated in the first four hours?).
Human performance is not the only consideration, however. Other assets such as equipment, information systems, and protocols may also be appropriately placed under the effectiveness lens. For instance,
- What percentage of the breathing apparatus failed during the exercise?
- For how many members of the forward command team were protective suits made available before the team first entered the hot zone?
- Of the 17 critical steps, how many were successfully carried out by participant #21?
- Were the protocols sufficiently clear to be executed without hesitation or confusion?
Efficiency -- Efficiency measures direct our attention to how much was accomplished in relation to the number of resources utilized. Historically, efficiency has not been a top concern with respect to preparedness. However, in these times of shrinking budgets and an expanding set of threats, doing more with less has become an imperative. Measuring efficiency in exercises is a key first step in learning how to better utilize precious resources. Examples of efficiency measures are:
- What number of security personnel were dispatched to the point of perimeter breach?
- How many analyst work-hours were required to arrive at a correct interpretation of the intelligence?
- On average, how many victims passed through each of the four decontamination stations per hour?
When critiquing exercise performance it is not uncommon to find a strong interdependency between measures of timeliness, effectiveness and efficiency. For example, a decontamination station will not likely be deemed timely or efficient if its people and equipment are highly prone to making errors. Having side-by-side measures of timeliness, efficiency and effectiveness sheds far more light on the root cause of any deficiencies than if only one or two measurements are used. In the decontamination station example, a prudent first step would be to lower the error rate through training and/or use of more accurate equipment. Simply adding more decontamination station resources could be a far more costly solution.

Fielder's Choice
'Be A Holly Shopper'
In February, there was a full page advertisement on page 3 of The South Reporter.
The big headline at the top read – "Be A Holly Shopper."
The emphasis was on staying at home and shopping locally – in Holly Springs and Marshall County.
The important message was sponsored by the Bank of Holly Springs, First State Bank, Merchants & Farmers Bank, the Holly Springs Chamber of Commerce and Holly Springs Main Street.
Shopping at home has been something preached through the pages of community newspapers, like this one, for many years. Never has the message been more important than in 2012.
Our local businesses need your support and they deserve your support.
They're your friends and neighbors.
They're the ones you call on regularly to support community causes.
They support civic club fund-raisers, school projects, families in need and the list goes on and on.
Our local merchants care. They care about the well-being of our towns and county and the residents.
Most work long hours. And most you can call after hours, if needed, and they will get you what you need.
The full page in the February 9 edition of The South Reporter listed just a few benefits of buying locally – 1) Money spent here stays here; 2) jobs and wages; 3) stronger tax base; 4) local business owners invest in our community; 5) better variety; 6) convenience equals savings; 7) keep local dollars in the economy; 8) friends and neighbors; 9) community well-being; and 10) live here – buy here.
I noticed in a recent copy of The Itawamba County Times where the Itawamba County Development Council is launching a campaign called "I Get It! in Itawamba County." The story was written by Adam Armour of The Times staff.
Greg Deakle, executive director of the ICDC, talked about the importance of local shopping. He called it the "local multiplier effort."
Money spent locally is used by local people to buy more stuff locally. Eventually, that money will leave the area, but the more it's spent locally, the more the local economy benefits.
"So, my spending in another community can actually affect the local unemployment rate? Yes," Deakle said. "By spending money here, we encourage our local business to grow and maybe hire more people."
In turn, Deakle said this impacts the ability of the county and its communities to offer necessary services – playing a key role in determining how much to tax residents. It's a cycle – business means jobs; jobs mean a larger, stronger community; a larger, stronger community means more business and so on.
"We all want better roads, more security, better schools and a nicer place to live; we all want more choices of things to buy and places to go; we all want our neighborhoods to look nice and be safer. The best place to make a difference is right here at home," Deakle said.
Monday morning, I dropped my chain saw off locally for repairs. Last Friday night, Erin and I enjoyed dining out in Marshall County. Those are only a couple of examples.
We all go out of town for things. But our focus should be on shopping at home and making a difference here.

Do you hide your stash from company?
- free sample addict aka Tracy L Oct 19, 2007 03:18 PM
I think I have finally gone totally loopy. As I was straightening up my pantry in anticipation for an upcoming party I found myself making a small box to hide away for just the food stuffs I 'd rather not like others see some of the things I eat (Pepper Pot soup, sweetened flaked coconut, jello etc.) It's not horrid stuff but a 3 year old will be visiting along with a couple of very health conscious friends. Does anyone else do this or am I truly nuts?
Ok, first off let me tell you I thought you meant something totally different! lol I thought you meant things you were not willing to share (Like my 40 yr old Scotch and my Stoli Elite...)
When I have friends come over they know immediately that I have a fully stocked bar, I however put the stuff I would not be as tempted to share in the basement.
re: gryphonskeeper
I'm right there with you gryphonskeeper...I hide my scotch that I brought back from Edinburgh and the cognac my grandfather gave me for my 30th birthday.
I can't recall having hidden anything in the kitchen for any reason, though. I'm not sure it's all the way to completely nuts...just a little nuts. And a little nuts is usually fun.
re: ccbweb
I don't have anything I wouldn't share with friends, most things are better with friends, and I don't have friends that would touch the "good stuff" w/o asking. However....If I had a party or something and I didn't know who was coming over, which I can't see happening, I'd probably hide the Triomphe
re: rednyellow
Oh, close friends, I'll keep it out and if it's appropriate, absolutely share. But we have a pretty open door policy and get company that I like very well but wouldn't necessarily share the rare stuff with. I'm not going to make them drink swill though.
re: ccbweb
I live alone, pretty close circle of visitors here.
re: rednyellow
Both my wife and I are PhD students...we get a lot of people we only know peripherally. I get where you're coming from though, and did the same when I lived solo.
re: ccbweb
ahah, ccb, that explains why you're always looking up nutrition info. talk about piled higher and deeper (me too.)
re: ccbweb
That is exactly what I mean, I had a "friend of a friend" come over (I invited friend, she brought her friend unbeknownst to me beforehand. This said person found my grandfathers 40 yr old scotch, and helped himself to it... very liberally I should add. Since that day, I have hidden most of the higher end alcohol, and things that are .irreplaceable Sorry but there is not a soul on earth I like enough to give the scotch my grandfather left behind to...
re: ccbweb
Ditto with the Scotch. I have a few single malts that I keep for my dad when he visits. I have to hide them or my father-in-law sloshes them down with ice and ginger ale. Gee, thanks. I have been known to hide candy from my kids!
re: ccbweb
"A little nuts is usually fun." And it keeps one from going insane which is what I almost did after a party and noticed that a precious bottle of Evan Williams 23 Year Old Bourbon was bone dry after everyone had left. I could have killed that night...
The bottle had been left in full sight on the bar while I was busy being perfect hostess, and of course people thought it was OK to drink. Man, did I learn a lesson that night. I only hoped the people who drank it enjoyed it.
re: ccbweb
There are *some* people we hide the really good booze from, mostly because they'd be more excited by the labels than by the actual flavors, and we'd feel like the stuff hadn't been fully appreciated and had gone to waste. But for most of the people we'd have over, we're happy to share. But we've definitely stashed bottles in the closet! I'm glad to hear we're not alone.
re: gryphonskeeper
That's just what I thought. We have one friend that will drink every drop of alcohol in the house when he's in a certain kind of mood. So I hide the stuff that I'd like to keep a little longer when he comes over.
Another friend will stay over and cook canned tomatoes for breakfast. He just dumps about three cans in a pot and reduces them to mush. No seasoning, nothing. So sometimes I hide the good tomatoes I got in Italy and buy him a few cans of decent tomatoes at the supermarket. I'm happy that he's comfortable enough to go through my cabinets and make what he likes, and I'm happy to cook him spaghetti with the good tomatoes, but I can't have him scarfing all my best tomatoes for breakfast in one sitting!
re: gryphonskeeper
I don't and I wouldn't. I might get the "snappy comeback" ready, but you gotta know your company if you are going to go that route.
The only thing I would probably think about doing with kids coming would be to not leave any "junk food" visible, so the kids aren't tempted and don't pester the adults. I figure that friends/family know by now that I am all grown up, can make my own (wise or unwise) decisions on food, and can live (okay, or die) with the consequences of my decisions. That said, I would probably make sure that my fridge is stocked with fresh produce and keep some juices around so there are some non-poisonous snacks available, and I suppose that if I were cooking, Southern fried chicken, with mac & cheese and brownies a la mode were not being served for dinner.
By the way, I don't think you're nuts. I am sure you are just trying to avoid a confrontation, but if that's what you're trying to do, it sounds like your soon-to-be guests are kinda nervy.
May I say, in the best possible way, that you are truly nuts? :-)
I am too, you see.
The only thing I hide away out of sight when I have certain relatives visit is my array of saffrons. (Well, and the more than decent wines that I am saving for a special night with the Hub.) I know I would get roped into making some over-the-top saffron dish were this stash discovered. And it would be, since these relatives are snoops. My question to you (and myself, truth be told) is why are these party guest digging in your pantry!
Here's a trick that I always used in the bathroom medicine cabinet whenever I had a large party: I stuck up a sign (inside the door, on the shelves) saying that if the guest needed first-aid, see us; morever, if they needed to know what meds we were taking or birth control we were using, we would be happy to answer their questions. Maybe you can put up a sort of de facto "no-snooping sign" in your pantry for the party. Mine always got a big laugh, even though the snoopers were busting themselves. Your Jello and coconut would be safe, or at least the genesis of a good joke!
re: cayjohan
Oh, I misread the OP. Thought these people were coming for the weekend. I would hide nothing, but I can understand hiding $$$ liquor. These people are coming for a party. They should not be snooping in your cabinets, but I suppose it's entirely possible that they might open a cabinet looking for a plate or a glass or something and fall upon your "stash." I guess I would still make sure to have some "healthy" alternatives to offer but if it's a large gathering, that one group would not dictate the menu.
If they are of the type that would pass comment/judgment on the things you have in your cabinet, you might want to try this on them for the medicine cabinet. Put some marbles in there. You will hear a racket when they snoop and they will be suitably embarrassed, though would probably claim they were just looking for aspirin or a band-aid.
Depending on the company, yes, but not out of food shame, more what the others were saying, where you hide pricey booze.
I never used to, until one evening when my husband's loser friend started hammering back some very special and expensive scotch my sister gave me because, hey, he wasn't paying for it. He must have swilled at least half the bottle!
So now when we have parties where I know people are just going to get totalled I do hide the good stuff, because what`s the point if they`re just going to puke it all up later?
You can put dryer sheets in a paper towel tube and, oh wait, nevermind.
Pricey liquor and if my dad is visiting anything that seems extra extravagant that we won't be eating that night. Not so much hidden as out of the way.
I proudly display the cans of baked beans, but move the Bisquick to a spot akin to my bedside dresser.
re: sailormouth
I don't hide anything unless my mom is coming over -- she's VERY nosey, and will open any cabinet, any drawer, to satisfy her curiosity. And there's lots for her to discover in the pantry. "Oh! what do you do with this?" is the usual querie, followed by "its not in tonight's dinner, is it?" I also hear "why do you have so much _____?" or "Wow ... look at all the liquor!" or she'll start sorting through the cans and boxes saying "Im just looking for your (something she knows I don't keep around)". This is the same person who will go into my closet and pull something out and said "do you ever wear this?"
My condolences to those whose liquor cabinets were pillaged by the great unwashed swill-seekers, especially those who help themselves to the good stuff with no remorse. THOSE guests would NEVER be invited back.
re: sailormouth
Ha! literally laughed out loud, sailormouth.
My uncle used to own bagel stores, and sometimes we would buy bagels somewhere else , just because he didnt make the variety we were buying. Whenever he came over, we would hide those bagels.
I was in awe when I learned that my sister in law bakes holiday cookies early, wraps them in plastic wrap and butcher paper, then labels the package "FISH" before freezing. Snoops have been detered by this for years!
Since we retired and moved to central Mexico, our "goodies" are imported. We are 800 miles from the nearest border crossing. We can't get things like Crisco, baked beans, green chilies or Bisquick in our area. Yes, I hide them. I also hoard my dried herbs and spices. I actually had a "friend" looking for "American food" in my pantry to take home with her.
Well, when my ardent vegetarian cousin visits for the weekend, I do put the chicken and beef soups/broths at the back of the cupboards behind the vegetarian options. She knows I'm a carnivore, but it seems a matter of politeness to her sensitivities (disgust) with meat.
On the other topic of hiding foods from cupboard surfing guests, I have learned that the more hospitable and open-cupboard minded I am, the more friends will adopt habits that they would Never do at someone else's house. I love healthy eating and love my discount organic store where I can buy things to try that I could never justify buying at full price. Well, my friends have been influenced toward healthier eating by many nights over for dinner at my house, trying things they've never had. But it came to the point where if I did not make a full dinner, one or two friends would go to my cupboards and pull things out from the very back and say "Hey! Can we have these?" Which, since I couldn't say no in the moment, led to a regular habit of cupboard invasion. Worse, one in particular would take the package of whatever and eat it all himself and not share with other guests unless I specified, before it was all gone, "Would you pass that around to everyone?"
So, yes, they drove me to not only hiding novelty foods in the back of the pantry (in the hallway behind the bin of dog food) but stocking my house with fewer novelties because it was no longer a special treat...they came to expect it and were eating me out of house and home.
Just moved to a new city, where my neices and nephews live. Bet I will have to adopt the same back-of-pantry locale for my experimental organic and gourmet foods.
Here's to food hiders everywhere.
re: suziegoeshome
The stories I hear on this site. I completely believe you but simply cannot imagine going into someone's home for a meal and looking in their pantry and saying "can I have this?" Who is raising people?
re: ccbweb
Oh, my gosh, I totally agree. I probably have the most open door/cupboard policy of any hostess I know. No one has ever gone through my cupboards and asked to open anything!
And I can't imagine doing that at anyone's house...with the exception of maybe my Mom's.
re: SweetPea914
I was pondering whether I would do that at my Mom's place. There's zero chance at all that I would before dinner. If I were hanging around for a while after dinner (and because of the driving distance between us, if I'm there for dinner, I'm usually spending the night) and I was hungry, I'd definitely poke around in the cabinets and help myself to whatever. As you note: can't imagine doing it anywhere else.
re: ccbweb
I remember a friend of mine who had a German roommate at university who was agog at how people in America just dive into their friend's fridges. He was very polite and formal and was just APPALLED at this "phenomenon". (I guess he would have been prepared if he had ever watched an episode of "Friends")
re: suziegoeshome
While I'm touched that you would go that far to accommodate a veg friend, I'm pretty sure it's not necessary, esp. if she knows you're an omnivore. I mean, she sees that stuff at the grocery store, after all.
There are enough people who will make weird demands, you shouldn't create some for yourself. No need for self-censorship - if she's a good friend, she'll understand that you don't reorganize your life (or your cupboards) for her.
re: suziegoeshome
I was mostly amused by this thread at first, but all the tales of cupboard/liquor cabinet surfing have me thinking a little harder on this topic. My snooping relatives may demand a dish made for them if they find the fixings in my cupboard, but friends asking for the food? At first I was (as they say) *aghast*. Then I realized I have the same scenario. I have a lot of friends and family that live "outstate" as we say, and when they are guests, don't necessarily snoop, but in the cooking/serving/whatever process, spot one of my "urban" acquisitions. Result is the same as your post: "Can I have this?" with the added "I can't get it where I live and you can." I usually capitulate (not without offering to take aforementioned visitor to an "urban" store - offer usually declined), but I start to resent having my pantry depleted because of excited guests. I may start "hiding" things a little more carefully in the future, as, as ccbweb says, "who is raising people?" We shouldn't all be beggers.
re: cayjohan
It sounds like your relatives are asking something more along the lines of "ooh, can we have this with dinner?" Which, personally, I'd find less irksome. I'm also used to special requests by some friends or family but those are always made ahead of time and because they like a particular dish that I make (shrimp tamales, brownies, that sort of thing) and never because someone rooted around in my pantry. Obviously, right there with you on "can I have this?" Sheesh. I did once have a friend who noticed the wealth of Trader Joe's stuff in my pantry (we had a walk in closet/pantry with a coat hanging space in the front and the pantry on the back wall) and asked if she could buy some from me (the TJs was 2 hours from town, but only 5 minutes from my Dad's house, so I'd go there when I visited and stock up).
It's all in how one asks and the level of entitlement one presumes, I guess.
re: ccbweb
'It's all in how one asks and the level of entitlement one presumes, I guess."
Nailed it! If a friend wants to know how to cook something and needs a few bits from my pantry? no problem. And, they ask nicely.
If one of my relatives would ask the same, I would respond in kind; however, it is usually a situation where I am cooking X and relatives find Y in the cupboard and insist on Z for dinner. (Dumping X into a freezer containter, this poster mumbles unhappily while trying to make the Z-dish that cupboard snooping has resulted in).
We've already dealt with entitlement in digging into pantries for take-home stuff; what about entitlement in the realm of "hey! you've got something else here...can you make this for us? Love to hear your take on this, since holidays are upon us and relatives and friends are coming soon!
No. My friends are so lowbrow, I don't have to hide jack squat. Even if they had something to say, I'd be like " F&*% you"! As far as the "high end" liquor, they wouldn't know it if it bit 'em in the nose. I have to dole it out to them on special occaisions. Guess there's somethin to be said for the ol' ragtag bunch............
re: diablo
There is nothing wrong with being "Low brow" I came from very meger means and I have friends who I know cannot even fathom the cost of some of the higher end liquors I have in my collection. The only problem I have are with people who assume my cabinets are a free pass to sample at a whim. I do not go into peoples houses and walk into their bathrooms and say "Hey can I have a couple of these prescription medications? My hubby could use some of that Viagra and I would love to take a Zoloft or two for the high" So why would they assume they can drink half a bottle of Chivas that was tucked way in teh back of my cabinet (and not on the counter where I had a extensive selection of other liquors.
re: diablo
Yeah, I can't relate to this thread. None of my friends or family are nosy/nuerotic/judgemental/greedy/rude/whatever enough that it has ever even crossed my MIND they would peek in the cabinets. Lowbrow, huh? So that means you think it's a lack of intellectual curiosity, not merely manners? ;-)
I try not to leave any sex toys lying around the powder room, otherwise, it's my house, I"m not hiding jack, either.
re: danna
Yeah, I KNOW it's a lack of intellectual curiousity :) They are a very simple bunch to say the least, and certainly not mannerly (at least in my presence). That said, obviously I find nothing at all wrong with being "lowbrow" (who knew the term would garner such interest?) or I'd find new friends.
Thank you all, I feel better. We had the party last night, although I did see a few people go to get some sugar from the pantry and utensils from the cupboard it was far less invasive than other parties. In the past I've had people completely take over the kitchen because of final prep for their contribution for dinner but fortunately that wasn't the case last night. It was pretty ironic because in my zeal to hide the goodies I forgot to take care of another area of my house which a guest needed to use. A lesson well learned.
OMG! I thought I was the only one. We have 2 kids, 1 teenager still at home and one at college. They bring their friends over who think nothing of rummaging through the pantry and freezer and eating whatever and often not even closing packages or re-sealing items. Have been very disappointed in the past to think I had home baked goodies stashed in the freezer, opened up a box, only to discover half the brownies gone or cake eaten. So...I lock the freezer. Have had several arguments with DDs over this, but it's the house rule now. They know where the key is, but not supposed to share with friends. As for pantry, I usually keep Walker's shortbread cookies, imported candy, speciality foods, etc. in special "secret" hiding place. Put out ordinary chips, pretzels, crackers out in front as "decoys" so they will get eaten first. Don't mind if kids get into water, juice, soda, etc. but it just galls me to clean up after them and see an open bottle with 2-3 gulps missing that I now have to throw away. My children accuse me of having Depression era mentality about food, but I just hate to see waste.
Regarding the type of food we buy, no, I am not ashamed of any of the food we buy. But I do get ticked off by nosy relatives, friends, etc. who open fridge or pantry and make comments. Agree with another poster, were these people raised under a rock? Amazing what passes for manners in the 21st century (or lack thereof).
re: Diane in Bexley
I similarly have neighborhood teenage boys that step into the walk in pantry before they come into the living area and who routinely invade the extra freezer where the microwaveable treats and ice creams are. I also keep the good stuff way in the back and "their" treats up front. In the freezer, hiding things under the squid or the chicken feet works well.
I guess I've never had a problem with guests snooping in my cabinets, mostly because our house is small and not conducive to large-scale entertaining. When family visits, they're welcome to everything we have that they can find, and there's nothing in our cabinets that I wouldn't want them to see. (All that stuff's hidden under the bed in a box clearly marked "rancid cow parts").
Now there WAS a time when my brother-in-law spent a summer living in our basement, and he foolishly drank my last beer while I was at work. HE'S no longer welcome in our house.
You feel embarrassed to have sweetened flaked coconut and jello in your cupboards? Goodness! I think your friends are far too judgmental. These are hardly items so scandalous that a 3 year-old must be "protected" from them!
I think I've gone far enough when I tidy up my counters. Anyone who digs around them, can reorganize them, as far as I'm concerned. OTOH, I am one of a few members of my family who raids an elderly relative's cabinets when she goes out of the room to root out expired, moldy items (ranging from aspirin to peanuts) she is too thrifty to get rid of on her own. We do it for her own safety.
Definitely. If it's my mom and dad. They are health freaks. We were brought up in a household where the only sweeteners were honey and fruit. When they come to visit, I hide my chips, my candy, my wine, my sugar cereals, everything! =) It's a protective measure to avoid lots of and lots of forwards about how I'm going to die young.
On packages of precious stash, I have been known to draw a skull and cross-bones or simply write "HAZ MAT," to disguise them from both guests and inmates.
OMG - when I saw the title of this post, all I could think of was hiding my peanut butter jar when my mother and step-dad come to visit... he has a VERY bad habit when he's the least bit hungry of dipping a spoon (or his finger -- eeeeuuuuwwww) repeatedly into the jar. Now we just don't buy PB, but he's been known to do it with other things as well. what can I say, I love him, but he's gross! haha.
re: jujuthomas
Well, I do that at home, but it's MY jar. Like drinking out of the milk carton. I would never do that at someone else's house.
re: piccola
The peanut butter spoon...the greatest 2am snack of all time. But, like piccola, at my house...my jar.
re: ccbweb
I once had a friend tell me that her preffered Grey Goose vodka over the vodka I was pouring him. I then remembered why I hadnt invited him over for 5 years. This is the same person who once brought a nintendo to a party plugged it in and sat down in the living room while everyone stared. Mind you the vodka I was serving was just as nice if not better than the Grey Goose. He's a marketers tool I guess.
But on the note to eating peanut butter on a spoon or with your fingers - guys this is a choking hazard. You should always eat peanuts butter on some type of food. If you choke on just plain peanut butter its basically over.
And to the Original posters comment - I dont hide anything really everything I have is for anyone who visits except anything containing sour cherries. That is where I draw the line. I have been known to hide toys when people bring their sticky kids over. Who like to five finger items.
I've been known to hide stuff from my husband that he bought for himself, but I think is unhealthy for him to eat. Othewise, no, I don't hide stuff in my pantry. My pantry is, sadly, very pathetic, though! It's woefully understocked. It doesn't have fancy pull out shelves, though it wishes it had them. It's messy and cries out for some type of space organizers. I'm sure that it says a lot about me, Dr. Freud. I like the fact that you hide stuff from your guests (and what is wrong with jello or coconut flakes?) but easily share all this info with us!!!
I don't hide anything in my pantry: when I lived alone, it wasn't an issue, and now that my roommates have had their wicked way with all of my ingredients and accoutrements, I'm too burned out to worry about it. I finally gave up when I realized my entire stash of saffron threads had been pilfered because one of them wanted to try their hand at making saffron rice to go with the barbequed pork and black beans she was making. *laugh* There's nothing for the guests to find, anymore.
As to alcohol, the only people who visit--and who like wine--are the ones I'd be willing to share my cellar with.
C'mon! I can't believe there's not ONE PERSON out there who admits to snooping in other people's kitchen cabinets? I freely admit that I am overly obsessed with people's food habits and love to sneak a peak in cabinets, refrigerators, pantries, etc. Of course, I don't do it when they're around, I don't comment on anything to their faces, and I don't ask if I can take home their Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee that I "happened" to find on the top shelf in the back.
re: jennywinker
I snoop at my brothers (he's the one who taught me to be a Hound) and he snoops at our house, but we don't take anything. Sometimes we will offer something (a new hot sauce or something) for the other to take.
re: Janet from Richmond
Same here. I always snoop - sometimes openly, if it's someone I'm really close to - but I never, EVER help myself.
re: jennywinker
Yes, I'm a pantry archeologist.
Usually at my IL's homes, where they love to cook, and have all kinds of exotic ingredients. They don't mind--and I'll often get a quick tutorial and/or directions to the local supermarket that carries the item. Have found some great foods that way.
Conversely, if I've discovered something I think they'll like, I make my hubby pack an extra ice-chest so I can take them some. It's fun! I've carried fresh crema, cheese, meats, wines, etc. and have brought back the same. I'm blessed to have SIL's and BIL's that love to cook and share.
I have a SIL that has had to hide treats from her dog--especially chocolate--as he could smell them and get into the cupboard while she was at work! Bad Buster!
re: LulusMom
I had a rule as a sitter (a million years ago) - never open any packages and never finish something if there isn't much left! If only all sitters followed that rule, eh?
I don't think any of our friends/family snoop in our pantry... my mother doesn't have to, we frequently cook together when we visit. I don't look because I don't care what other folks are eating. Unless I'm helping cook I stay outta the cupboards! :)
re: jujuthomas
I know - it just seems obvious to me that you neither finish nor start something in someone else's house. The fact that it was so obviously a valentine's gift made it even more bizarre.
And I'm with you on the snooping thing. It wouldn't occur to me to look in someone else's pantry. If they are foodies, I'll know basically what is there anyway, and if they're not, ditto.
re: jujuthomas
The only people who snoop in our pantry, fridge or freezer, are our grown daughters. It's a ritual for them to come over, open the fridge, ask what was for dinner last night and can I have a taste, then go to the pantry and ask about whatever new crackers, condiments, etc. They are curious about the new things I try and want to know what I use them for, are they good, do you think so & so would like that, and so on. Next they check the freezer to see what big hunk of meat might be lurking there, and ask me when was I planning to make that, because they know if it a big piece, it's probably for a family dinner. I don't mind, and as I have a tendency to overstock, and there are only 2 of us here, I often send them home with extras.
Just yesterday my DD that has 2 children came over to pick up some delicious leftover pork steaks I had made. I knew we weren't going to finish them, and her kids have been sick, so I offered them so she wouldn't have to cook. While she was here she was pondering about what to serve as a side dish. The pork had an oriental flavor to it, so she was thinking rice and asked if I had some, which I did, and gladly gave her the white rice and some jasmine rice. It made it easy on her, and that made me feel good.
I never look into anyones pantry when I go over, unless they ask me to hand them something out of it. My friend and I were cooking at her house, and she told me to go to the pantry and get an item. When I did I was amazed at how neat it was, and in alphabetical order! I went home and cleaned up my pantry (not in alpha order, though.) LOL!
re: danhole
alphabetical order???? holy guacamole (filed neatly between goat cheese and horseradish).
re: LulusMom
Ha! It made it easy for me to find the organic bouillon! Now, was that under O or B? Hmmm, think it was B.
As far as hiding stash, yes I do had a special spot behind some old plastic ware for things that I don't want to share with the daughters!
re: danhole
Hey! LOL. I file my spices in my lazy susan drawer in alphabetical order so they are easy to find. When I am looking for an herb or spice, it makes it much easier than staring at a sea of all the same color caps. As far as hiding things, I put out things that Granny CAN eat when she babysits so she doesn't go rumaging through everything. It doesn't work though. For some strange reason today, the fishie crackers, the evaporated milk (unopened) and the marshmellow cream were clearly moved to the refridgerator. Was she going to make fudge and changed her mind?? Highly doubt that-she can barely toast a peice of bread. She is the type to open up a bag of cheese with the ziplock feature WITH SCISSORS. Drives me insane because then she uses a paperclip or better-saran wrap to "close" the bag. One day she wanted hot sauce for her chicken fingers. Without askng, she poured it then changed her mind and proceeded to pour it back into the ketchup bottle!! My husb whispers to add ketchup to the grocery list. She is one crazy granny he needs to stay out of my kitchen but can't help herself. I know I'll find more strange things she has done tomorrow.
re: hotoynoodle
Tripe soup. Some people might think it was gross. But then at least they wouldn't try to steal it.
re: Louise
No its pretty gross. My mother used to make it and the smell would turn my stomach in an instant. No one steals tripe soup.
I hope you aren't loopy. I do the same thing. Either because I don't want to hear how the food is bad for me or because it's hard to get or fairly expensive and I don't think the guests are going to really appreciate it. (I have "good salt" and "good vinegar" that I'll only offer you if you are the kind of person who will recognize the "good" salt.)
re: alicea
My embarrassing craving was McDonald's ice cream. I hadn't eaten in a McD's in 15 years, but I couldn't stop myself.
No, I would never feel obligated to hide any of my things because of someone's food preferences, whether they adore junk food or are complete health food nuts. Of course, I really regulate who comes into my home, so most people invited in know I don't care for someone else's opinion (even my own family or best friends) about how I manage my household. My closest friends know they're welcome to go nuts in my cupboards (but not to the point of taking my things home), and everyone else is polite enough to ask. As far as "special" dishes... that's a toughie. I don't make things just because someone's looking through my stocks and sees something expensive, which I really see as quite rude. Basically, it's a matter of 'you'll eat what I make and like it!' if someone doesn't make their food preferences known to me before coming over for supper.
As far as booze goes, I do have my own separate Scotch and Irish whiskeys, tequila and bourbon - which absolutely no one is simply allowed to help themselves to. That's always kept separate. I do stock decent liquor though, because I refuse to serve [i]anyone[/i] swill while they're a guest in my home.
I've been racking my brain trying to think of what I would hide from guests (out of embarrassment, not just hiding the good scotch). Duh! For everyday dinners, I've recently taken up drinking box wine. Never mind the 112 bottles of decent stuff on the rack. The Black Box is definitely going in the back of the closet.
re: Sinicle
Keep a can of Spam next to the truffle oil to prove to Mr./Mrs. nosey you are a eclectic foodie or at least have a sense of humor.:>)
Did I miss something? What risk would there be in a three year old seeing jello or sweetened coconut? Heck, I was trying to think of any three year olds I knew who hadn't EATEN jello before - I thought that was a staple of childhood! :-)
That being said, IMHO, anyone who will judge you on what's in your pantry isn't much of a friend, but that's just me. Maybe I'm a member of the low-brow gang, too!
re: Suzy Q
haha. i was trying to think of a 3 year old that would eat coconut.
So in my college student mind... "stash" meant drugs or alcohol. Relieved it was Jello. I can sympathize though. I guess. In my own sketchy way.
In college we lived with a strict Baptist, who had a mother that was vehemently opposed to any form of alcohol. So when she would come, we were notified before to hide everything. One time, I was home alone and I got the message she was coming. I took our collection of various liquors, and a 24 pack of beer from the fridge, and hid it in my room. While she was there, she inspected a fridge... And I hear "EMILY... EMILY WHAT IS THIS?!?" Scared that I had forgotten some alcohol, I hid in my room. Apparently however, she found a Red Bull in the fridge and was very concerned that her daughter might be drinking them. After all, Red Bulls are dangerous.
It's really a shame she never found the liquor and beer.
I would hide the Old Dutch or Kettle potato chips from my food stash, unless they were very good friends coming over. :)

Malt-O-Meal Toasty O's taste better than Cheerios.
I just wrote a little post explaining the difference between "frolf" and disc golf, that helps people to find the best frolf discs. Check it out. And you'll like this sweet picture too… It's of the Gateway Diablo which has interesting dimples in the bottom side of the rim.
After more than a month of hard work… (a lot longer than we had anticipated)… Kirk and I officially launched our online disc golf retail website. It took a really long time getting all of the product information and descriptions together, as well as the sort functionality.
Now that it's done… This is a pretty sweet website, and provides the ultimate tools to help you find and buy the perfect golf disc.
Our site allows you to find and compare discs based on:
This search is better than anything on the internet, and it gives you the opportunity to narrow down and find the absolutely perfect disc.
Lets say you want a fast disc, with minimal turn, and healthy fade. You can do a search for Drivers, Thick Rim, Turn rating of -1, and it will sort and minimize the available options to show you only discs that match this criteria.
You can also search based on brand, and we carry discs from all the major manufactuers: Innova, Discraft, Discmania, Latitude 64, Millennium, Gateway, and DGA. We also have discs from some of the lesser known brands like Lightning, MVP, Skyquest, ABC, Westside, and Legacy Discs.
We've done our best to offer competitive pricing, quantity discounts, and the best overall disc golf buying experience. To help people become aware of our new website, we're going to be giving away 50 custom stamped infinite discs. You can get these free discs by following Infinite on Facebook or Twitter, and by helping us get more reviews on our website.
Here's a look at these beautiful discs:

The man who was named ESPN's No. 1 college football fan back in 2010 has passed away at the age of 91. Dick Coffee, who was a huge supporter of the Alabama Crimson Tide football program, died this past Friday in Birmingham. Since 1946, Coffee had attended every Alabama game and his final one was a real treat. Coffee got to witness the Crimson Tide take home their second straight national championship, which is something that everyone dreams of doing.
"He was a great American and a great Alabama fan," Oakley Melton, a friend of Coffee's, said, via al.com. "There's never been anyone greater. He would go if it was raining, snowing, sleeting. Dick Coffee would be there, and his record was unblemished. He went to a game in Nashville where the weather was just unbearable. He didn't let the weather hold him back.
"He had a full life. He's going to be missed. I can't say enough good things about him. He was head of the pep squad. He blew an old bass horn and would go, 'Toot, toot, toot, toot, toot,' and all the students would yell, 'Go!'
In total, Coffee attended 781 consecutive games and 51 consecutive bowl games.
Coffee graduated from Alabama in 1950 and he proudly displayed his allegiance to the team for the remainder of his life. It is that kind of loyalty that makes college football so incredible, and Coffee is just one of the fans who truly represents their team proudly for their entire life.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Coffee family. He was a great man and a great presence that will be missed every Saturday in Tuscaloosa.

"I mean, I didn't think of it as a big deal," he said of his initial varsity experience. "It was the same as J.V., so I wasn't really intimidated by it. I think it could have went better if everyone listened, but not everyone was on the same page until that last game."
Johnson, 5'9, 190-pounds, reports a 4.51 in the forty yard dash and that breakaway ability is also reflected in his 6.1 yards per carry average from last season. Colleges have started to notice his talent and he is hearing from a handful of them.
"I went to a camp at Baylor, I've been to Oklahoma. I've been getting a lot of mail from Michigan State, Wisconsin, Ohio State, Ohio University, schools like that, and I've been to a Northern Illinois camp."
Johnson says family ties brought him to those camps in Big 12 country and while down there, he received positive feedback from the Sooners.
"They said they really like me and they said they would give me a call. I like the school, it's a nice place."
As he moves through the process, there is little doubt Johnson will hear from more and more schools and when he does, he knows a couple he hopes will be on the list.
"I want to hear from Northwestern, Penn State, I really like them, and probably Florida State."

Everything stayed pretty much status quo this week – the biggest jump was 3 spots and the largest drop was 4.
Here are the rankings for Week 20:
|1. Atlanta Braves (76-48)
|1 –
|With a 16 game lead in the N.L. East, the Braves could actually start to formulate their playoff rotation.
|2. Detroit Tigers (73-51)
|2 –
|The Tigers have the best run differential in baseball (+155), the incredible Max Scherzer, the off the charts ridiculous Miguel Cabrera, and a 6.5 game lead on the Indians in the A.L. Central.
|3. Boston Red Sox (74-53)
|4 ^ 1
|Boston, who shut out the Giants last night, are continuing to battle with the Rays (who are a game out) for A.L. East supremacy.
|4. Pittsburgh Pirates (73-51)
|3 – 1
|The Pirates have gone 3-7 over their last 10 games as their lead in the division has shrunk to a single game. They defeated San Diego last night, and will look to benefit from their easy upcoming schedule (9 games against the Padres, Giants, and Brewers).
|5. St. Louis Cardinals (72-52)
|6 ^ 1
|The Cardinals have won 3 in a row to close within a game of slumping Pittsburgh for 1st place in the N.L. Central.
|6. Los Angeles Dodgers (72-52)
|7 ^ 1
|Los Angeles had to cool off eventually: they've lost their last 2 games to the Phillies and Marlins.
|7. Texas Rangers (72-53)
|5 – 2
|The Rangers are 7-3 over their last 10 games, but they're having a hard time shaking Oakland in the A.L. West (they're a half game up).
|8. Tampa Bay Rays (71-52)
|9 ^ 1
|The Rays are in firm playoff position, but catching the Red Sox (who they trail by a game in the A.L. East) is obviously their goal.
|9. Cincinnati Reds (71-54)
|8 – 1
|Joey Votto's power numbers are down, but he's having a tremendous year for the likely playoff bound Reds. His triple slash is .316/.435/.503.
|10. Oakland Athletics (71-53)
|10 –
|Oakland continues to lead the 2nd Wild Card in the A.L. while nipping at the heels of the Rangers for 1st place in the A.L. West (they're a half game back).
|11. Baltimore Orioles (67-57)
|11 –
|The Orioles had a 2-5 week, and are now 4 games behind Oakland for the 2nd Wild Card, and 5.5 games behind Boston for 1st place in the A.L. East. Chris Davis, though, has continued to rake.
|12. Cleveland Indians (67-58)
|13 – 1
|The Indians, who are 4.5 games behind the A's for the 2nd Wild Card spot, need to fatten up over their next 6 games against the Angels and Twins.
|13. Arizona Diamondbacks (64-59)
|14 ^ 1
|Arizona refuses to give up. They're probably not going to catch the Dodgers in the West, but they're the only team that has an (albeit long) shot of catching either the Cardinals or Reds for one of the Wild Card spots in the N.L.
|14. Kansas City Royals (64-59)
|12 – 2
|The Royals have cooled off after their hot stretch, and now find themselves 6.5 games back of the 2nd Wild Card. They open a 7 game homestand tonight against the White Sox.
|15. New York Yankees (64-59)
|15 –
|The Yankees were extremely fired up after Ryan Dempster threw at A-Rod 4 times in Boston (and connected once), and had a solid week. Still, they're 6.5 games back in the race for the 2nd Wild Card and 8 games behind 1st place Boston in the A.L. East.
|16. Washington Nationals (60-64)
|16 –
|Barring a remarkable finish to the season (the Nats are 10.5 games out of the 2nd Wild Card), this year's Washington team will likely go down as one of the most disappointing in recent memory.
|17. New York Mets (57-66)
|17 –
|The Mets likely lost starting pitcher Jenrry Mejia for the season (with an injury he was pitching through knowing he'd need minor surgery after the season), but the blow was softened by the arrival of heralded catching prospect Travis d'Arnaud to the majors.
|18. Colorado Rockies (58-68)
|19 – 1
|In what's shaping up to be another lost season for Colorado, starting pitcher Jhoulys Chacin has been a bright spot. He has a 3.24 ERA and 1.22 WHIP.
|19. Toronto Blue Jays (57-67)
|21 ^ 2
|Since their 11 game winning streak in the middle of June that many thought would vault the Jays into contention, Toronto has gone 19-31.
|20. Seattle Mariners (57-67)
|20 –
|25 year old third baseman Kyle Seager has had a solid year for the mediocre M's. He has a triple slash of .282/.352/.469, and should finish with close to 25 home runs and 40 doubles.
|21. Los Angeles Angels (55-69)
|21 – 3
|With Albert Pujols regressing before his injury and now done for the year with a torn plantar fascia in his foot, the Angels may want to avoid looking directly at what he's owed over the next 5 seasons: $145 million.
|22. San Diego Padres (56-69)
|23 ^ 1
|The Padres are in the bottom 10 in the bigs in every major offensive and defensive category except quality starts.
|23. Chicago Cubs (54-70)
|26 ^ 3
|The Cubs had a 2-5 week, but move up because their run differential (-39) means they've been far more competitive than the teams below them.
|24. San Francisco Giants (55-69)
|24 –
|San Francisco's season from hell has continued. They have the 6th worst run differential in baseball, and are likely to sink further into the abyss with their next 6 games against Boston and Pittsburgh.
|25. Philadelphia Phillies (55-69)
|25 –
|Philadelphia's roster was flawed from the start, and injuries didn't help, but their play was dreadful to the point where it cost Charlie Manuel his job last week. Ryne Sandberg has taken over and been given the interim tag, but it's widely expected that he'll be named the full time skipper once the season ends.
|26. Minnesota Twins (54-69)
|22 – 4
|Minnesota's pitching has been dreadful. They're 26th in ERA, 30th in quality starts, 27th in WHIP, and 29th in BAA. Top prospect Kyle Gibson, who missed most of 2011 after undergoing Tommy John Surgery, was sent down to AAA after he was bashed by the Mets yesterday.
|27. Milwaukee Brewers (54-71)
|27 –
|Shortstop Jean Segura, hitting .309 with a .343 OBP, is on pace to finish with close to 200 hits (including roughly 50 for extra bases).
|28. Chicago White Sox (49-74)
|28 –
|The Sox had a 5-2 week to keep themselves ahead of the Marlins. That's not saying much, but it's something.
|29. Miami Marlins (48-75)
|29 –
|Christian Yelich has come on of late but Jake Marisnick (hitting .193 with a .239 OBP) is still in the doldrums. Jose Fernandez, however, continues to chug right along toward a potential Rookie of the Year award.
|30. Houston Astros (41-83)
|30 –
|Now seems like a pretty logical time to reel off some of the players who may go #1 in the 2014 MLB Draft: Carlos Rodon, Jacob Gatewood, Tyler Beede…one of them should be on Houston come next June.

The MAPE (mean absolute percentage error) is a popular measure for forecast accuracy and is defined as
where denotes an observation and denotes its forecast, and the mean is taken over .
Armstrong (1985, p.348) was the first (to my knowledge) to point out the asymmetry of the MAPE saying that "it has a bias favoring estimates that are below the actual values". Continue reading →
