Modern Image Mobile Auto Detailing's staffers use only top products and technologies, such as Black Magic hand wax, Meguiar's clay bars, and high-speed buffing tools as they clean and buff up vehicles. Mobile technicians journey out to homes or offices, using pH-balanced products to lift away surface dirt and clay-bar treatments to keep a vehicle's carapace in top condition. Offering a full flight of detailing packages, as well as window tinting and headlight restoration, technicians give vehicles a shiny finish that can usually only be achieved by covering cars in doughnut glaze.

Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure has moved to clarify comments that he made about the prospect of joining French champions Paris St. Germain, Sky Sports is reporting.
Toure's future with the Premier League winners has come under question in recent weeks after his agent suggested that he had felt disrespected and underappreciated by the club's owners. The Ivorian initially backed up the claims before admitting that he would like to return to Barcelona before the end of his career.
On Tuesday, the 31-year-old then appeared to suggest that he would interested in a move to PSG, who are reportedly interested in claiming his signature, as they see him as a possible midfield partner for the combative Blaise Matuidi.
However, Toure has now stated that his focus is on the World Cup, and that nothing has been decided yet. He said: "Too many things have been said, that annoyed me. I want to take advantage of this opportunity to put things into context. It's very important.
"I simply said that it was nice to be a player who is quite coveted and it was an honour to play for PSG. My goal is the World Cup. The country awaits us."

Porn Terminator is a modern-looking application that has been developed in order to aid individuals in detecting image, video, audio and text files, as well as Internet history with questionable contents and deleting them.
Well-organized interface
The installation process is a piece of cake and does not being any kind of surprises, while the interface you are greeted by presents a modern and well-structured interface. It is suitable to all types of users, including those little or no previous experience with the IT world.
Scanning the computer, configuring settings and saving everything to the HDD
You can easily choose the partition you want to process and just click the "Scan" button. This process is not quite friendly to your computer's performance, as the CPU and memory usage is moderate to high. Once you wrap it up, results are going to be displayed in a tabbed environment, which enables you quick access to all available options.
All detected items can be sorted according to the alphabet, path, size, type or date, and previews are available, so that you can also assess if they are suitable or not for children. Results can be saved to the hard drive, yet you should know this feature is only available in the full version.
A summary is also available, so that you can view stats regarding the total number of files processed and the questionable ones. From the settings panel you can configure exactly which types of files to scan, and save them so that you can use them at a later date.
To sum up, Porn Terminator is a useful piece of software dedicated to parents concerned that their children might be accessing websites and other materials not suitable for their age. The response time is good, the interface is simple-to-handle and we did not detect errors or crashes.

This trip was an adventure for all the senses, especially the palate. Richard and Linda presented a first rate buffet of cheeses, cheese dishes and delectable's that nicely complimented both the cheeses and wines! I'm not a connoisseur by any means but I really enjoyed the wine selections offered. A beautiful day, a good group of folks and fine dining 'paddling style' at a great setting. Good stuff all around! Nicely put together and well thought out. The trip back in the dark was very cool I thought, I enjoy new experiences and that's one I won't soon forget.

Every trip is an adventure with Richard, but I really think he outdid himself this time! I mean we would have been happy with wine & cheese, but he provided us with such a huge buffet, it was unbelievable! And I thoroughly enjoyed the wine selection. Overall, the trip was just perfect--enjoyable weather, fun people, interesting stories, beautiful walk to the waterfall. It was fabulous! Always a good time. And the last mile was exciting. I always feel like I've lived, if I've escaped with my life! Just kidding. It was an adventure and one that I'll remember!
1 · October 7, 2013
What a night. Richard, the food was fabulous and your corned beef spread is still my favorite. That's only because I don't do blue cheese and your blue cheese spread was apparently the hands down winner. The wines were good and I enjoyed sampling some new ones. And any night that ends with champagne and chocolate truffles glow sticks of every kinds has to be a stellar time. Had a great time, as always, and it was fun to make some new paddling friends and paddle with some old ones. Pictures are coming soon. I took too many, but they're like kids, I have a hard not posting everything that turns out.
2 · October 6, 2013
This event was designed for the group to enjoy so please
read their comments which I'm sure will tell the story. Pictures will be up by 10:00pm Sunday night. enjoy

Tip: Categorizing images[edit]
Hello, Samat!
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
- [[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
- [[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
- [[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations"). Pro-tip: The CommonSense tool can help you find the best category for your image.
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.

Dear Samat,
Thank you for taking part in the Wiki Loves Monuments participants' survey. Your answers will help us improve the organization of future photo contests!
In case you haven't filled in the questionnaire yet, you can still do so during the next 7 days.
And by the way: the winning pictures of this year's international contest have been announced. Enjoy!
Kind regards,
why is your bot asking me to fill out the WLM survey again by saying thank you for filling out the survey? —Mono 22:07, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
- Dear Mono, this notification is a thank you message if you already filled out the survey and a kind reminder if you not, since less than 5% of the participants answered for the original message. (As the survey is anonim, nobody knows who filled it out already.) If you feel, that the wording could be better, you can discuss it on the talk page of the template (You are not the only one who felt, that it can be confusing a little bit.) I was only asked to send them out :) Samat (talk) 22:19, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

Apple sold 4.19 million iPads in the fiscal 2010 fourth quarter that ended Sept. 25. And Apple CEO doesn't see any serious competitors anytime soon.
The iPad is now distributed in 26 countries. iPad sales in the fourth quarter brought in US$2.7 million in revenue ($2.8 million when accessories are figured in). Over 65% of Fortune 500 companies are piloting or implementing the Apple tablet, says Apple Chief Financial Officer Peter Oppenheimer. iOS device sales passed 125 million in September, and there are now over 30,000 apps designed specifically for the iPad and over 200,000 registered iOS developers.
In a conference call with analysts and the press, Jobs said he only saw "a handful of credible entrants on the tablet scene, not an avalanche." He said most only offer 7-inch screen, which is only 45% as large as iPad's 9.7-inch screen.
Jobs said that size isn't sufficient for "great tablet apps" and that the iPad's size was the minimum size for great apps...| Read more »

Most Beautiful Art Work for the bathroom! martha from Alden, MI on 12/31/2014 – Verified Buyer
The Iveta shower curtain is beautiful! You pay a little more for these curtains ( I ordered 2 different prints) but they are worth every penny! I look at it like hanging art work in the bathroom. Good quality but the prints are wonderful! I wish you could view just this company, as they were scattered in the shower curtain area....could have saved time...many thanks....!

There is an urgent need to professionalise the governance of cooperative banks, Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Governor D Subbarao said.
Cooperatives are institutional establishments where people team up and pool their resources to achieve mutually gainful outcomes.
Speaking at international seminar on cooperatives in Pune, Subbarao said that various reasons, including financial and governance related, have eroded the credibility of cooperative banks.
Speaking on the topic, the head of the central bank added, "Governance in cooperative banks lacks professionalism. There is need to professionalise both their governance structure and their functioning."
He further said that the credibility of cooperative banks got eroded, particularly since these institutions came under the spell of numerous infirmities, some of which were chronic.
The RBI chief pointed out the fact that the share of rural cooperatives has slipped from 7.2 per cent in 2001 to 3.7 per cent in 2010. In the early 1990s, cooperative banks accounted for around 62 per cent of the agriculture credit, but their share dropped to merely 16 per cent by 2010.
He suggested that governance should be segregated from management, and thus the boards of the cooperatives should restrict their roles to governance and allow the chief executive-led senior management to manage the cooperatives' day-to-day operations.

Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Brice Cutspec (2010 NDFA - Azusa Pacific) clouted a three-run HR in the top of the 1st to spoil the Cub debut of newly-signed veteran LHP Doug Davis, as one squad of EXST Giants thumped one squad of EXST Cubs 9-6 on Field #2, while Jesus Morelli ripped a two-run double down the LF line in the bottom of the 6th to get the Cubs within one run and then scored the tying run on a Yaniel Cabezas RBI single, as the other squad of EXST Cubs and the other squad of EXST Giants played to a 4-4 tie on Field #3, in Cactus League Extended Spring Training action at Fitch Park in Mesa this afternoon
Both games were seven-inning affairs, and the games were played simultaneously on adjacent fields.
The 35-year old Davis (1-4 with a 7.51 ERA and 1.98 WHIP with MIL in 2010) underwent surgery last October to repair an injured elbow flexor tendon and to transposition his ulnar nerve after suffering through much of the 2010 season with elbow tendinitis. The Cubs signed him to a minor league contract yesterday, and wasted no time in getting him to Fitch Park and into a game.
Davis got off to a rocky start in the top of the 1st inning, allowing a triple and a walk before the Cutspec HR. He settled down nicely in the top of the 2nd, however, mixing a slow curve with an 84 MPH fastball (cutter) to strike out the side on just 12 pitches. No question Davis is the prototypical "soft-tossing lefty."
Iowa Cubs OF Brad Snyder (strained oblique) continued his injury rehab, playing RF for and getting four AB with the EXST Cubs squad on Field #3. Snyder flied out three straight times to the warning track in dead CF, and then drew a walk in his last PA.
Three pitchers who just arrived at Fitch Park from the Cubs Dominican Academy saw game action today. 20-year old Dominican RHP Starling Peralta (who had an impressive AZ Instructs last Fall when he made his U. S. debut) worked an easy 1-2-3 inning, but 19-year old Venezuelan RHP Ramon Garcia and 18-year old Venezuelan LHP Luis Villalba (both of whom were making their U. S. debuts) did not fare as well, with Villalba hearing the dreaded "Roll It!" when he was unable to get a third out in the top of the 4th after throwing 24 pitches (only 13 strikes).
In addition to the Cutspec clout off Davis, EXST Giants slugger Leonardo Fuentes slammed a solo HR in the top of the 6th, and EXST Cubs DH Max Kwan mashed a two-run opposite-field HR over the RF fence with two outs in the bottom of the 7th.
Here are today's abridged box scores (Cubs players only):
1. Vismeldy Bieneme, 2B: 0-3 (6-3, F-8, BB, 6-3, R)
2. Marco Hernandez, SS: 2-3 (K, 1B, 3B, R, RBI)
3. Wilson Contreras, 1B: 1-3 (4-3, K, 2B, RBI)

6. Blair Springfield, LF: 0-3 (K, 5-4 FC, K)
7. Eduardo Gonzalez, RF: 0-3 (P-6, 4-6 FC, K, R)
8. Oliver Zapata, CF: 1-2 (1B, BB, K, R)
9. Gregori Gonzalez, 3B: 0-1 (5-4 FC, HBP, HBP, R, CS)
10. Max Kwan, DH #2: 1-2 (K-DP, BB, HR, R, 2 RBI)
1. Doug Davis: 1.2 IP, 2 H, 3 R (3 ER), 1 BB, 4 K, 1 HR, 36 pitches (23 strikes), 1/0 GO/FO
2. Starling Peralta: 1.0 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K, 18 pitches (11 strikes), 2/0 GO/FO

4. Joe Zeller: 3.0 IP, 3 H, 3 R (3 ER), 0 BB, 2 K, 1 HR, 34 pitches (24 strikes), 4/3 GO/FO
C Hector Suarez E2 – overthrow on SB attempt at 2nd base allowed runner to advance an extra base and eventually score unearned run on WP
Hector Suarez: 0-1 CS, 1 E (see above)
NOTE: Brad Snyder played RF and was the third batter in the bottom of the 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th innings
X. Brad Snyder, RF: 0-3 (F-8, F-8, F-8, BB)
1. Pin-Chieh Chen, 2B: 0-3 (F-8, K, 4-3)

First call
You have mentioned Hartman (or is it Harman) and Loosen as the first arms to Peoria from Extended Spring Training.
I would guess Kwan or Cabezas as the first catchers.
Chen would be my guess as the first infielder.
Springfield or Morelli would be my guesses as the first outfielder.
Sadly, I see two Peoria outfielders that may get a quick bump (Szczur and Silva), but I don't see anybody that appear ready to inherit their at bats. Correct me where I'm wrong.
Thanks as always.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Aren't the Cubs being pretty cautious with Szczur early on? Something about a lingering ankle injury? I'm not sure he'll get promoted very quickly if the ankle still isn't 100%.
Not real happy to see Kim give up 7 hits and 3 ERs in only 3 IP. But on the other hand, the 7:0 GB/FB ratio is outstanding and the 2:0 K/BB ratio is nice.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Thanks for this. I knew Szczur had some kind of leg issue. When speed is a huge part of your game and you have a leg injury, you need to sit out for a bit.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
wow, good for him.
it's total hype, but whatever...cash in now, fuld.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
I'm shocked they feel strongly enough he's going to be on the roster in two months to schedule a promotion.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
You mean he might get promoted?
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
I'm glad he's found some success. I hope he does it all year.

Offense started well, then went to sleep for 7 innings, and Marmol saved it despite not being very sharp.

I'd say Marshall and Wood did the saving with a 1-run lead, Marmol got the garbage mintues.

Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
speaking of that trade, from BP's update this morning:
Brandon Guyer, OF, Rays (Triple-A Durham): 3-for-4, 2 2B, 2 R, BB, K, CS. Proving so far that last year's explosion with the Cubs was for real; 10-for-27 in seven games with five extra-base hits.
and the Cubs or Cub...
Brett Jackson, OF, Cubs (Double-A Tennessee): 3-for-3, 3 RBI, RBI, BB, SB. It was surprising to see him not begin the year at Triple-A, and he's now batting .500 (11-for-22), but .625 BABIP says there might be some luck here, no?
oh come on now, the guy's hitting .500, I think it's implied that he's on a hot streak.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Another prospect they traded for nothing--or for the equivalent of Fernando Perez--was Tony Thomas, who has two grand slams for Pawtucket (AAA Red Sox) this past week.

Goldstein answering twitter questions
No. But he's a potential every day SS, and those are pretty rare. RT @kringente: @Kevin_Goldstein ls Hak Ju Lee a potential impact player?
"Grain of Salt" Goldstein
Here's Goldstein on Sports Central winter of 2009,
Castro was recently named the top prospect of the Cubs' system by Jim Callis at Baseball America, but Goldstein said Josh Vitters is still the best prospect in the Cubs' organization.
Goldstein is not sure why Starlin Castro is being "blown up" the way he is this winter. Goldstein explained Castro is a very good prospect but is not the elite-level prospect that many are making him out to be. Goldstein said Castro's range is below average; he is slow on the bases and has no power.
hat tip to ChicagoCubsOnline
Castro 562 major league AB's
.309 .353 .418 .771
Castro minor league totals
.310 .362 .421 .783
Vitters minor league totals
.276 .319 .438 .756
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
you got a link so we can see what you manipulated?
that has to be the 2010 lists which Goldstein gave Castro a 5-star rating and 2nd behind Vitters.
what brought that on?
Hey, when you're done being a dick, manipulate this ↓
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
You should have just pointed out that thus far, Goldstein was spot on on Castro... is it the 3 HR's or the 12 SB's in 20 attempts that proves him wrong?
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Vitters numbers so far, very similar to Colvin's. (and it's interesting that Colvin and Castro both have translated their minor league OPS to the majors at this point)
Tyler Colvin minor league totals
.277 .320 .465 .785
Tyler Colvin 409 major league AB's
.242 .306 .477 .783
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Anytime you can put a .783 OPS in a corner OF spot, you gotta do that!!!!
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
.777 was the league average for an NL right fielder last year, .770 for LF
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
If you look at who starts in LF and RF for each team you will get a higher number. Better than half the starters in MLB at both positions will out OPS Colvin.
Likely puts him the same spot as it puts Fukudome as a lower tier starter or 4th outfielder on a decent ballclub.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
2010 OPS by NL RF and most games played or top 2 GP
Werth .902
Morse .870 or Bernadina .691
Heyward .845
Stanton .837 or C. Ross .727
Francouer .672
Hart .867
Bruce .853
Colvin .816 (fukudome was .809)
Pence .785
Ludwick .744
Jones .720 or Milledge .712
Ethier .863
Upton .790
Hawpe .756 or Spillborghs .797
Venable .711 or Ludwick (see above)
Schierholtz .676
still puts him 8th, not going to bother adding LF cause it'll be about the same result.
Colvin is also 25 and playing at the league minimum.
*note* some of those OPS numbers are what they got playing RF, some were they're overall numbers. I was jumping between ESPN and BR and didn't feel like being perfect about it.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Smokies' team hitting line after six games:
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
That is sick. Of the eleven hitters last night, Rebel Ridling has the lowest batting average... at .294. Nobody else is below .333.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
The Smokies and Daytona both have pretty intimidating lineups for their level.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Zambrano now has a better career home run ratio (one every 28.3 at-bats) than Victor Martinez, Michael Cuddyer, Pudge Rodriguez or Billy Butler. And he's closing in on Shin-Soo Choo (one every 28.1).
some other fun Z hitting facts in there
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
The Cubs have the wrong Carlos playing first base.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
in the meantime, option #1 has 4 HR's and .990 OPS right now for the Cards.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
The Cubs have the wrong Carlos playing first base.
I don't know... it seems that Carlos Delgado wouldn't really be a good choice any more.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
clearly, MLB will never be able to weather the poor April attendance numbers

Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
bleh...im all for getting it right and im not a ump/human-purist, but c'mon...let's not add a potential 5-15 minutes to non-playoff games.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
you're talking once a week maybe, glad they're interested in joining the 21st century
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
This is not the era of pragmatism.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
only had through mid-June of 2010, but games were averaging a minute less last year at that point.
Safe to say, replay isn't significantly changing the time of a game at this point.
Ozzie Guillen and LaRussa trotting out 3-4 relievers in an inning is another story.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
I'm in favor of replay, if there is a proper punishment for frivolous challenges, a la the NFL. My idea would be...
If the challenge is ruled "Call on the field was correct"
(and the challenge was a time-waster), the team has one player from their bench DQd.

Carrie says Welington has a sore index finger, not a thumb. I thought Len said thumb back in st. I would think it's easier to hit with a sore index finger than thumb. Throwing would still be a problem.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
New low. Wouldn't trade Barney straight up for Aaron Hill because on April 14 Barney has a good batting average and Hill has a low batting average?
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
the past 4 games barney played (3 good ones) have launched d.barney into god-tier.
i love him for the bench...don't really mind him as a starter...i don't expect more than 30 doubles and 5-10 homers out of the guy at the plate, though.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
I suspect that in a few years, if Barney matures a bit, he'll be capable of 10 homeruns. Right now he seems to have Ryan Theriot power though. The real key to his game offensively will be if he can take some walks--that could make him something more than a decent bench player.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
yeah, barney's got room to improve and his swing isn't horrid.
it's not like i think his bat is a total power black hole like jonathan herrera in COL or something...herrera will be lucky to hit 5hr a year even playing in COL.

Steve Stone has a book coming out. I'm sure it will be very flattering towards the Cubs.

Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Ryan Madson's wife just made his life hell.
"I hate the fans. It is bad enough that they bother us during the season, but they will not leave us alone in December when we go out to eat. We stayed here during the off season last year, but we will be going to California this year. There must be something particularly bad about Phillies fans because all the players leave in the off season."
enjoying sitting out in the bullpen listening to Phillies fans now...
the Phillies have since responded saying the comments were taken out of context
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
another grand misuse of the excuse "taken out of context."
that's pretty cut/dry stuff. it's just unfortunate she said it.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec

Vitters 2B's later and Ridling hit a grand slam to blow the game open

We knew about a velocity drop, but is the elbow 3/44? From a Levine article:

Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec

Q-Ball would "love" for Castro/Barney to be the 1-2 combo.
Fukudome probably not ready for Friday.
Pena still bothered by thumb injury.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Sure, as long as they're both batting over .300. Which will last all season, I'm sure.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
You've got to remember this is the guy who secured his managerial job based on a team ERA of 2.18 in his games from last year. He probably thinks luck is his dinvie compensation for losing his hair.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Wasn't he talking about moving Castro in the lineup just a few days ago? I mean if he is this fickle, it sounds like he will run the team like I run my fantasy baseball team- poorly.
Either way, you don't mess with the 1-2 guys when they're hitting like this. You just ride it out. If you have to reassess in a month, so be it, but let's not change our minds from series to series.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Well, the other alternatives thus far presented at the top of the lineup are doing as well or better than Barney (Fukudome and Baker). As long as Barney can keep his OBP over .360, I'm cool with it (though it would make more sense to hit him leadoff since he has no power and Castro would get to stay at just one spot).

Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Rafael Dolis, RHP, Cubs (Double-A Tennessee): 6 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 0 BB, 5 K. No. 15 prospect in the system had mid-90s velocity but needs to deepen the arsenal to avoid a relief profile.
Josh Vitters, 3B, Cubs (Double-A Tennessee): 2-for-4, 2 2B, R, RBI, BB. Hitting .360 in three games with three walks; it took him 30 games to draw his third Double-A walk in 2010.
and for crunch
Paul Goldschmidt, 1B, Diamondbacks (Double-A Mobile): 1-for-2, HR (5), R, RBI, BB, K. Maybe that crazy season in the Cal League was for real after all. At least maybe, don't want to make too many conclusions on his impressive .381/.536/1.143 line in seven games.
fun with minor league numbers
Bobby Scales 4th in OPS in the PCL, LaHair 11th, Montanez 16th and Scott Mooore a little behind that
Tennessee has 5 of the top 7 in OPS in Southern League (Goldschmidt is 1st)
Jackson, Clevenger, Ridling, Vitters, Spencer all over 1.000 with LeMahieu at 929
Cerda and Burgess over 1.000 in FSL and rank #10 and #12.
Pierre LePage and Rubi Silva over 1.000 in Midwest League (#2 and #10)
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Scales' success is a carryover from spring training. He has a nice approach at the plate and a mechanically-sound swing. He's perfect for a bench spot. I would have preferred Scales over Dewitt.
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
who is dewitt?
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
I am almost afraid to ask, but what's wrong with DeWitt's approach and swing?
Re: Davis Debut Spoiled by Cutspec
Honestly, I don't really know much about DeWitt.

based on what SF has been doing every other year lately, getting access to the postseason playoffs seems to be what's important. bring on dat short series!
that said, skipping the sudden death 1-game WC would be nice from here on out.
I know what you are saying, but I feel compelled to point out that there's no such thing as luck, curses, etc. The Cubs this year have as good as a chance as the Pirates to move on to the next round. If the Cubs proceed to the next round or not tomorrow, it will not be because of luck, but because one team outlasted the other. When/if the Cubs are lucky enough to make it to the league series, that's where they may find their biggest challenge. The Dodgers have a good, deep pitching staff.
debuting the new format 1 game "sudden death" WC matchup at yankee stadium does a perfect job of showing the intense emotion and drama this game can be.
that said, i'm ready to not see yankee stadium or hear fans at yankee stadium for another 5 and 1/2 months. at least i don't have to sit through the braves with their "tommy hawk chawp" this postseason.
i'd like to know why the mlb.tv internet radio feed of the game (which is always delayed by a few seconds at best) is almost a minute faster than the ESPN cable TV coverage. wtf?
i dont know what order they'll be in, but i pretty much expect fowler/schwarb/rizzo/bryant/montero/castro/lastella/arrieta. any change at all (aside from the first 4 guys) wouldn't shock me, though. coghlan is still a wildcard in the lineup equation...plus joe could always march d.ross out there with very slow arrieta pitching.
Yup. Have to agree. Baseball, like golf, certainly has that psych component for the player. There is no real reason why a fielding position should affect a batting average. The Cubs are 106 years over due for a little luck. Don't you guys think so? Maybe the rookies can bring some dumb luck on.
probably stacking capable lefties vs cole while keeping the "hot" castro in the game. fwiw, he's 1-6 lifetime with 0 bb/k vs cole (double).
i chalk bryant's issues at the plate while playing OF up to coincidence so far.
I will call your dead horse, "Trigger".
In one game, when anything is possble, I am glad that Joe Maddon is our Manager.
He knows the stats better than all of us. It would seem, IF La Stella gets the start at 3B, it will be only up to the point that they were to get the lead (crosses fingers). From everything I have read, the game will be managed like a hoops game: offense/defense. So expect La Stella to be out of the game by the 5th. This team is incredibly deep which is so surprising. We never woulda thunk it.
i don't know what their roster plans are, but j.herrera is out there practicing with the team.
i can't imagine him making any roster, though. dude had 4 PA the entire month of sept. him being a good dude to be around while keeping the clubhouse loose seems to be his main role at this point.
I know it's my own personal dead horse to beat --but Bryant has been a lousy hitter when playing the OF this year. Given that it's his first playoff game, I really hope they keep him in his natural position and don't mess with his routine.
Lousy as in 8-for-45 with one XBH and no HR. Small sample and all that -- but why take the chance?
hard to tell what's up given they'll probably want to stack as many good lefties into the lineup as possible.
castro being a bit hot doesn't help things. if he was still cool they'd probably stick la stella at 2nd and call it a day.
Madden won't announce lineups but Stella is practicing at 3rd and Bryant in LF today. I'd rather see Bryant at 3rd but I guess Stella has been hotter than Coghlan.
/edit. Though I guess they could be practicing this with the idea Stella would come in as a PH then double switch him to 3rd base and Bryant to LF. Hope that's the plan instead
I really like the sound of that idea about expanding the AFL to ten teams. Each org. gets to field more players.
They should do that anyway, regardless of Adv. Instructs.
Dallas Beeler, Corey Black, David Garner, Pierce Johnson, Steve Perakslis, James Pugliese, Duane Underwood Jr, and Rob Zastryzny threw early-morning bullpen side-sessions at Riverview yesterday.
Underwood threw last, and received specific one-on-one instruction from pitching coach Mike Mason.
HAGSAG: There are only five advanced instructs squads left, and presently the only "co-op" team operating is the Angels/Cubs.
The league was originally established as a "parallel" league to the AFL (a sort of "junior AFL"), for players too advanced for traditional ("basic") instructs but who were unable to get placed on AFL rosters due to AFL player-limits.

The rooms are lovely, clean, quiet and have all the mod cons you could wish for.

Make sure you get them to pick you up from the airport or meet you as it is hard to find at first.
We also had a massage while there. WONDERFUL! Would go back in a heart beat.
Stay here. its lovely!

I am a fan of Instagram. I use it daily as a method of sharing my photography and seeing what others are shooting/posting. I totally get why Instagram is a phone App. Most people snap pictures and videos with their smartphones. However, I can't think of any reason why the good folks over at Instagram haven't saw fit to release a tablet version of their app yet. I'm often browsing Instagram on long flights and typically I'm using my iPad Air 2 in this situation. It feels really silly viewing the iPhone app on the iPad. It never occurred to me to check for 3rd party Instagram iPad apps until I saw Padgram mentioned in the comments on another site. I immediately downloaded it and thought to myself "I can't believe that I've been missing out this long." This is the kind of app that I've been wanting. Imagine your Instagram feed on a big beautiful 10″ display.
Better yet, imagine clicking on a photo and seeing it nice and large with the comments down the side. Padgram Pro supports both vertical and landscape orientation. You can see several posts at one time. You can also easily like photos and download your favorites. Downloading images may cause some of you some concern since the native Instagram app doesn't allow this. However, chances are if someone wanted your photos they have been screen shoting them anyway. When it comes to posting new photos you will need to have the iPhone app installed. The developer explains that the Instagram API doesn't allow them to upload photos to Instagram. As a matter of fact the only current way to get photos onto Instagram is the phone app. You can't even do it via the web. The Padgram Pro apps supports multiple accounts. This is great if you have a personal Instagram account and a business one. It's also something I wish the official Instagram app supported. There are other features that aren't supported in the official Instagram app too. For instance you can subscribe to tags and subscribe to specific users. Your subscribed user list offers quick access to the feeds that you like to see the most.
Also be sure to follow me on Instagram @TerryLeeWhite

"Edward come on, please." Alice, my pixie like adopted sister, begged. She was holding the invitation to our High school reunion, which she was trying to convince me to go to.
"No Alice, definitely not." I said in my most "and that's final" voice. It obviously didn't work because she kept going.
"Why not? It'll be fun."
"I doubt that, what's so fun about seeing all the girls that constantly harassed me, and how much they've let themselves go?" I was always the popular "hottie" of the school, all of the girls tended to act weird around me, except Alice and Rosalie, though they had Jasper and Emmett, and they were nothing more than sisters to me.
"Please, please, please…" She said jumping up and down.
"Stop! Unless you can come up with a legitimate reason that will make me want to go, the answer is NO." She thought for a second then a smile slowly spread across her face.
"Bella Swan." That was all she said, and that was all it took. Bella Swan was the smartest, prettiest, independent girl in the whole school. She was the only one who acted normal around me, the only one who didn't seem to want me. This only made me want her more. I was madly in love with her, and it was so apparent that I was sure that she would find out, though she never noticed me enough to see it. The only time she ever spoke to me was in Biology, when we were partners and had no choice. Alice was the one who figured it out first, we were always close and still were. Jasper, Alice, and I all shared an apartment in Forks. I still hadn't met anyone, and doubted I ever would.
"What if she's married, and has a family?" I asked
"What if she doesn't?" Alice asked right back. I sighed, what the heck…
"When is it?"
"Yay!!!" Alice screamed. I was going back to Forks High, back where so many bad memories lie. All for Bella, just like it always was for Bella.
I know its really short, just sort of setting the story, is it good, bad, okay, review please!!!

Where it mentions rights for males and not females, just as it lists rights for those over twenty-one years of age and citizens, not those under twenty-one years of age and non-citizens.
Our Constitution recognizes male and female as unequal, there is no right to gender equality just as there is no right to child equality or non-citizen equality. Read the words, the law is written in black and white.

I'm especially interested in how you fellows reconcile Leviticus and Sodom & Gomorrah with the homosexual lifestyle.

Notice how the hobbit peeked from out of his burrow long enough to bare false witness against me. You're making jeebus so proud.
There you go again, spitting out lies like you did wads, way back when. Though I would rather they put their minds towards empirical evidence, many gays are Christian. A lot of church denominations are okay with gay people. Also, stop calling it a "lifestyle". That's like saying blue-eyed people are living a lifestyle. There are no five pillars of the blue-eyed, and gay people don't pray to San Fran five times a day. The gay lifestyle, like your deities, are a myth.
Because a white man, in a night gown, giving birth to himself so that he could kill himself, in order to forgive something that he made a sin totally makes sense.

"We are dealing here with legislation which involves one of the basic civil rights of man. Marriage and procreation are fundamental to the very existence and survival of the race."- Skinner v Oklahoma
"Marriage is one of the "basic civil rights of man," fundamental to our very existence and survival."- Loving v Virginia
"Our Court has not recognized a fundamental right to marry that departs in any respect from the right defined by the US Supreme Court in cases like Skinner which acknowledged that marriage is "fundamental to the very existence and survival of the [human] race" because it is the primary institution supporting procreation and child-rearing (316 US at 541; see also Zablocki, 434 US 374; Griswold, 381 US 479). The binary nature of marriageits inclusion of one woman and one manreflects the biological fact that human procreation cannot be accomplished without the genetic contribution of both a male and a female. Marriage creates a supportive environment for procreation to occur and the resulting offspring to be nurtured. Although plaintiffs suggest that the connection between procreation and marriage has become anachronistic because of scientific advances in assisted reproduction technology, the fact remains that the vast majority of children are conceived naturally through sexual contact between a woman and a man."- Hernandez v Robels
"It is an institution in the maintenance of which in its purity the public is deeply interested, for it is the foundation of the family and of society, without which there would be neither civilization nor progress. "- Maynard v Hill

Creating a buzz
Heard any new bands recently? This home has. Beside the rippling Grand Union Canal, Woodfield Road is so edgy, fresh and cool it's got musos nodding directional haircuts in approval. A warehouse only recently converted, the ceilings are high and the brickwork exposed, yet all is smoother than a remastered LP. Huge windows, deep sofas and gently nodding plants accompany an album's worth of contemporary artwork – and the terrace is ready and waiting for any rooftop gig. Yes, grab a guitar, plug in that keyboard and be ready to serenade the songbirds of Maida Vale. For this is a home to make a big noise about.

Johann Strauss's Die Fledermaus
Johann Strauss's beloved work, one of the jewels of the Golden Age of Viennese operetta, has long transcended its origins and become a staple of the operatic repertoire. It was first staged at Vienna's Theater an der Wien in 1874. Twenty years later, a production at the Hamburg Opera, led by its chief conductor Gustav Mahler, helped raise its artistic status, and many major opera companies have presented Die Fledermaus since, including the Met, where it was first seen in 1905. A new production featuring a revised English libretto opens on New Year's Eve 2013.
