I did not, she does not try to open the door unless I open it up for her. She's 4.
I like to open and close her door anyway since she's in that 5 pt. harness still and will be for a while.

I don't worry about me, I worry about the guy next to me. My DH did just hit in the parking lot and they re-parked somewhere else but this young couple saw them took a picture of the license plate and took it in to the manager of the movie theatre. They hunted my DH down and the other people and they already had the cops there. Crazy. Now that was a bad parking job. His car was new and now has a huge dent in the side.
I park next to on of those islands where the trees are planted, park out far and try to park next to nicer cars. It takes forever to find the right parking place.
I don't let DD open her own door if it is a tight squeeze. It isn't likely to be a tight squeeze in my car, though. I have a Prius and crappy depth perception. I will happily park farther out to avoid being squishy.
What are the door protector things?
I was laughing the other day though and thinking of the BHB when I saw a MOM park her car, walk around the other side, and open the passenger side and totally without a care in the world whack a really nice car to get her kid out. I'm like wow you really don't give a shit huh?

Lane buckling closes traffic lanes on I-15
Published June 10, 2013 8:51 pm
This is an archived article that was published on sltrib.com in 2013, and information in the article may be outdated. It is provided only for personal research purposes and may not be reprinted.
The two left lanes on Interstate 15 southbound near 13800 South were closed Monday night because the lane adjacent to the HOV lane buckled, apparently due to Salt Lake's 100-degree temperatures.
Crews were working on the problem, which was reported at about 7 p.m., according to the Utah Highway Patrol.
The damage was expected to be repaired by about midnight, according the Utah Department of Transportation.
About a week ago, near-90 degree afternoon temperatures caused similar problems on I-15 near 14600 South.

Updated September 2014
Benton County, named after Missouri Senator Thomas Hart Benton, was created from eastern Yakima and Klickitat counties in 1905. The county is located in southeastern Washington at the confluence of the Columbia, Snake and Yakima rivers. The Columbia River defines the north, south and east boundaries, making the county part of the semi-arid river basin in the rain shadow of the Cascade, Blue, Wallowa and Rocky mountains. Ranching and dry-land farming made up the bulk of its economy in the 1800s. Today it is the ninth most densely populated county in the state with 103 persons per square mile due to its nuclear-related industry and other research and development jobs. Agriculture remains a large revenue producer for the area.
Deer and elk, along with fishing, seeds, roots and berries provided food for the indigenous people in the area even though there is little rainfall. Migrations of white settlers into the area in the 19th century disrupted this tribal world and the Indian Wars of the 1850s resulted in tribes being moved to reservations.
The gold rush of 1858 in British Columbia brought the first large group of whites through the area. By the 1870s, cattle and horse ranchers occupied the majority of land in the area. In the 1880s, major settlements along the Columbia River were connected by steamboats and railroads, allowing farmers and ranchers to get products to market. Farming included corn, wheat, alfalfa, potatoes and fruit, especially apples. Many farmers were successful in dry-land farming. In the 1890s, the Yakima Irrigation and Improvement Company built the first irrigation canals. With irrigation, railroad service and electricity development, there were accompanying expansions of orchards, vineyards, farming and ranching.
World War II brought the Hanford Project into the county to develop the plutonium used in the first nuclear bomb. Continued federal investment has led to scientific diversification and nuclear and chemical cleanup, creating skilled engineering and science jobs. In the late 1980s, Washington State University expanded into the area, offering advanced degrees. The well-educated, trained workforce has made many contributions in agricultural production, processing and research. Over time, the county has attracted a variety of manufacturers, including the production of chemicals, fertilizer and zirconium tubing and titanium, along with supporting storage and distribution centers.
Growth and prosperity have continued with population and development centering in Kennewick, Richland and Prosser. Recreational industry and tourist attractions are developing along with the popularity of the wine industry. The economy is tied to agriculture, food processing, medical equipment manufacturing, energy production, nuclear-fuel fabrication, wine production and wine tourism.

Local population growth continues to drive demand for more educational services as well as healthcare. The slowdown seen in education and healthcare industries can largely be attributed to the national, state and local budget cuts and re-allocations.
The good news is that the housing market here is stable with growing housing inventories and affordable prices. The national and state housing sectors are expanding and growing, which is expected to drive economic growth even in the local area as consumer confidence in buying and selling homes increases. According to Washington state nonfarm projections, the Tri-Cities (which include both Benton and Franklin Counties) are expected to be the fastest growing area in the state through 2022 at 1.3 percent a year, but it will be 1.2 percent points below that of the 2000 to 2010 period.
Manufacturing and construction sectors are expected to have an annual growth at 1.0 percent and 1.4 percent through 2022. In response to growth in manufacturing and agriculture, wholesale trade along with transportation and warehousing industries are expected to expand as well at the rate of 1.1 and 0.7 percent a year, respectively. Also, education and healthcare industries are expected to grow the fastest at 2.5 percent a year through 2012.
As the economy becomes more stable and moves forward with new markets, new products and technology in research and development, manufacturing and wine production and utilization are expected to play a big role in Benton County's future prosperity.

The Local Employment Dynamics (LED) database, a joint project of state employment departments and the U.S. Census Bureau, matches state employment data with federal administrative data. Among the products is industry employment by age and gender. All workers covered by state unemployment insurance data are included; federal workers and non-covered workers, such as the self-employed, are not. Data are presented by place of work, not place of residence. Some highlights:
In 2012, the largest share of employment was held by 25 to 34 year-olds at 22.7 percent, which is close to the state's figure of 22.5 percent. The age group of 45 to 54 year-olds had a 21.9 percent share of employment, followed by those 55 years and older at 17.1 percent.

'West Side Story' is still touching and, sadly, all too relevant
The classic musical, with music by Leonard Bernstein, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and book by Arthur Laurents, will be performed by Actors' Repertory Theatre of Simi through Aug. 30 at the Simi Valley Cultural Arts Center, 3050 Los Angeles Ave., Simi Valley. Performances take place at 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, 2 p.m. Sundays. Tickets are $20 general, $16 for seniors and students, and $14 for children. The show is not recommended for children younger than 9. Call 583-7900 or visit http://www.simi-arts.org.
Arts writer
The fact that "West Side Story" still has relevance today is a validation of its theme. But it's also depressing that the world has moved so little from the 1950s, when the story is set, to today in regards to solving conflicts between "us" and "them."
Shakespeare famously recognized the sad state of affairs etched in "Romeo and Juliet," in which star-crossed lovers were bred in families that hated each other and would never consider a match between the two young dreamers. "West Side Story" takes its inspiration from the Bard's telling of the tale.
No matter how many times you've seen the musical, with its catchy and lyrical tunes by Leonard Bernstein, its clever and touching words by a young Stephen Sondheim, and book by Arthur Laurents, there is still a pull at the heart when it's effectively staged.
Actors' Repertory Theatre of Simi, under the guidance of Jan Glasband as director and Gary Poirot as musical director, has pulled together a show that overflows the Simi Valley Cultural Center stage with talent of all ages and caliber. There are more than three dozen cast members, an orchestra of at least 10 and two dozen technical staff and crew members who have their share of flubs and fumbles but who also put high energy and strong hearts into telling a vivid, if basic, story.
Glasband has added children to the mix in the Simi tradition of allowing youngsters to experience and appreciate theater from the inside out, sometimes to very good effect. The innocence of children playing is effectively captured in the stop-action New York street scene that opens the show. The fun is quickly interrupted by the Puerto Rican teen gang, The Sharks, who then get into a tussle with the white teen gang, The Jets, or as the Latino side sees them, "the Pollacks."
Into the tense situation wander Maria, a new arrival from Puerto Rico, and Tony, a young man who has withdrawn from The Jets because he sees the pointlessness of the conflicts. Their impossible situation is soon engulfed by the violence around them.
Meanwhile, there are plenty of snappy Latin rhythms and lots of soulful singing. Among the latter are the memorable "Maria," "Tonight," "One Hand, One Heart" and "Somewhere." Singing them sweetly, and poignantly, are Jacqueline Anglin as Maria and Matthew William as Tony. Adding the spice on the other side of the page are Maria's sister-in-law, Anita, and her friends in such vivacious numbers as "America." Sandra Purpuro, with lots of stage experience on her résumé, gets every stitch of spark from the song and is compelling in later dramatic scenes.
Lots of the other set pieces are carried by choreography and attitude, which the mostly young gang members carry off to the best of their abilities. Gang leaders, Kyle Caldwell as Riff and Marco Antonio Sarinana as Maria's brother Bernardo, demonstrate deep suspicion that leads to even deeper misunderstandings. AJ Ruiz, as Chino, the man Bernardo expects Maria to marry, does a convincing turn.
Dancing quality varies, but choreographer Rebecca Castells hasn't held back in challenging the cast with fast-action lifts and turns, and George Castells' fight choreography stands out.
Even those who've seen "West Side Story" more times than they care to remember may still be moved by the final scene, in which a young boy is poised over a murder scene, seemingly about to pick up the weapon and continue the pointless battles.

One of the most popular recipes I've ever run is for Amish Friendship Bread, which was first published in my column almost 20 years ago. The reason it's called "Friendship" bread is because you share the starter. Once your starter has been fed and has completed a 10-day cycle, you use some, save some and share the rest with friends.

Adam Dunn gets new digs
Updated: December 2, 2010, 6:44 PM ETBy Tristan H. Cockcroft | ESPN.com
Fantasy owners love it when a power hitter signs with a team in a homer-friendly ballpark. We let our imaginations run wild, anticipating bloated home-run totals.
So when we heard Thursday that Adam Dunn, who has more home runs (282) since 2004 than any other hitter except Albert Pujols (294), is the newest member of the Chicago White Sox -- according to Jerry Crasnick and Bruce Levine of ESPN.com, Dunn will sign a four-year, $56-million deal -- it's understandable when we shoot for ...

Why Genetically Modified Crops Pose a Threat to Peasants, Food Sovereignty, Health, and Biodiversity on the Planet
A Summary of Scientific Arguments
Almost twenty years of genetically modified crops… What have we gained?
Contrary to what companies promised, official statistics from the United States—the leading producer of genetically modified (GM) crops in the world—demonstrate that the truth of GM crops is that they produce less per hectare than the seeds that were already available on the market, but have resulted in an exponential increase in the use of agritoxins.
Ingredients, Flavours, Fragrances and Synthetic Biology
Synthetic biology could impact the $22 billion global flavour and fragrance market and the livelihoods of producers of natural commodities. The world's largest producers of food ingredients, flavors and fragrances are all now partnering with Synthetic Biology companies to develop biosynthetic versions of key high value natural commodities such as saffron, vanilla, vetiver and patchouli - replacing botanical sources. These in turn are just a few our of hundreds of economically important natural plant compounds whose production may be switched to synthetic biology production in a very short time frame.
Plant-Derived Pharmaceutical Ingredients and Synthetic Biology
Rubber and Synthetic Biology: A New and Emerging Issue for CBD
This case study illustrates recent developments in synthetic biology that could impact the $35 billion natural rubber market and disrupt the livelihoods of producers. These developments impact the sustainable use of biodiversity and fair and equitable sharing of benefits from the genetic resources associated with rubber production. Natural rubber has already lost half of its market to petroleum-based synthetics. If production challenges are resolved, production via synthetic biology could erode the remaining half. Using synthetic biology, three different commercial teams are working to produce a biosynthetic isoprene that could soon impact Asia's exporters; other companies are producing biosynthetic butadiene and isobutene, also crucial to the manufacture of rubber.
Ingredients, Flavours, Fragrances and Synthetic Biology
Known for its musty, woody scent, vetiver oil is also know for its fixative qualities, which means that it helps a fragrance to last longer after it is applied to the skin. Vetiver oil can be detected in the "base notes" of many perfumes or colognes. A synthetic biology company has engineered microbes to produce chemical compounds aimed at replacing traditional Vetiver production, threatening the livelihoods of thousands of farmers in Haiti, Indonesia, China, India, Japan and Brazil, among others.
The Industrial Food Chain or the Peasant Food Web?
This short report compares the industrial food system with peasant farming. Industrial farming gets all the attention (and most of the land). It accounts for more than 80% of the fossil fuel emissions and uses over 70% of the water supply used in agriculture, but it actually produces only about 30% of the world's food.
In this succinct, illustrated booklet, you'll find the answers to these questions...
Synthetic Biology - A New and Emerging Issue for CBD
New developments in synthetic biology could have far-reaching impacts on the market for biodiversity-derived natural products and the livelihoods of those who produce them. Cosmetic giants like Unilver and L'Oreal can source squalene from plant sources (olive oil, amaranth seeds, wheat germ, etc.) instead of harvesting the livers of 6 million deep sea sharks per year. This is a positive development. Now, Amyris is producing squalene from engineered microbes in fermentation tanks that are fueled by biomass – up to two million tons of crushed sugarcane annually. Who decides what is the most sustainable and socially just use of biomass and farmland?
No inter-governmental body is addressing the potential impacts of synthetic biology on the conservation and use of biodiversity and on the livelihoods of those who depend on agricultural export commodities (including high-value flavors, fragrances, cosmetics, essential oils, etc). The Convention on Biological Diversity is the most appropriate forum to address this new and emerging issue.
From climate crisis to corporate crop control
The Industrial Food Chain or the Peasant Food Webs?
The Food Systems We Don't Know We Don't Know – Fifty years ago, at the first World Food Congress in June 1963, the UN was told that, "We have the means, we have the capacity, to wipe hunger and poverty from the face of the earth in our lifetime – we need only the will." These words have been the mantra of every food conference since. Yet governments still face major gaps in their knowledge about our food supply and consumption. This became horribly apparent in 2007 when governments failed to recognize that a global food crisis was at hand. Fifty years after policymakers committed to end hunger they need to sort out why governments don't have the means, the capacity, or the will to end hunger.
The State of Corporate Concentration, 2013
In this Communiqué, ETC Group identifies the major corporate players that control industrial farm inputs. Together with our companion poster, Who will feed us? The industrial food chain or the peasant food web?, ETC Group aims to de-construct the myths surrounding the effectiveness of the industrial food system.
Ag monopoly makes mergers suspect – Big Six create "charity" cartel instead, conning regulators and public breeders
Issue: The Gene Giants know their market dominance looks conspicuously like an anticompetitive oligopoly, so they're launching a series of initiatives – including the false promise of cheap, post-patent GE seeds – to mollify antitrust regulators and soften opposition to transgenics while advancing their collective market control. Meanwhile, the world's two richest men – Bill Gates and Mexico's Carlos Slim – are working with CIMMYT (the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center) to make bargain GE seeds and traits available to farmers in the global South.

Equity Office Inks Four Key Lease Deals at South Station with CVS/pharmacy, Tavern in the Square's Airport-Style Bar, Starbucks and the Return of Beloved Barbara's Books Travel Hub to Offer More Convenience, Shopping and Dining Business Wire BOSTON -- October 16, 2013 Equity Office announces four new leases have been signed for South Station – beginning with leading retail pharmacy CVS/pharmacy, which will be 30,000 SF on two levels, connected with an escalator; Tavern in the Square (780 SF with seating for 40); Starbucks; and the return of Barbara's Books – marking the beginning of planned changes at Boston's longest-standing travel epicenter. Renovations done in tandem with lease installations will transform the Station's restrooms into airport quality facilities. "South Station will soon offer patrons a full service atmosphere providing everything from coffee, an airport style bar, a CVS/pharmacy and the return of its beloved bookstore," said Britton Derkac, Director, Leasing, Equity Office. "Restroom changes will include creation of an airport-quality ladies room in the former Clark's space and an expanded high quality men's room in place of the current restroom configuration." Equity Office will manage the work with a phased approach to construction. Initial construction will begin in October, with the restrooms conforming to accessibility standards. "This is great news not only for the thousands of people who travel through South Station daily, but also for the Commonwealth as a whole," said MBTA General Manager Beverly Scott. "These leases help fund the upkeep of New England's busiest transit hub at no cost to the MBTA or taxpayers." CVS/pharmacy will begin construction of its two-level store complete with an escalator and elevator this November with a planned opening in March 2014. The store will feature a full service pharmacy, large health and beauty departments, convenience food offerings and general merchandise. The Tavern will open in late Fall: "Tavern in the Square is very excited about this opportunity. We are taking 780 SF and we will have 40 seats in our space. It will be a scaled down version of our menu, serving 50 draught beers. Our opening date is set for November or early December," said Joey Arcari, founder, Tavern in the Square. Barbara's will take approximately 300 SF and is thrilled to be back. "We at Barbara's Bestsellers could not be happier to return to South Station. We have been the station's bookseller for almost 20 years. It is a great place to sell books and we can't wait to be back," said Don Barliant and Janet Bailey, owners, Barbara's Bestsellers. "With a flagship CVS, Tavern in the Square, Starbucks and Barbara's Books among the retailers and food service providers at South Station, we will provide a one-stop travel and service center for patrons," said Mark Smith, Market Managing Director, Equity Office. Gilbane Building Company has been contracted to carry out the landlord improvements in South Station to prepare the space for CVS. Gilbane has been a leading Boston construction firm since 1946. South Stationis located in the heart of Boston's major business district and serves as the major downtown commuter rail station. It is a hub for the MBTA, Boston's primary public transportation system, and a main stop for Amtrak's Northeast Corridor Service. It is estimated that 130,000 travelers pass through South Station each day. Equity Office (www.equityoffice.com) is one of the largest commercial property owners in New England with more than 9.5 million square feet of space in the region, and with a portfolio encompassing approximately 70 million square feet of Class A office space under management in superior locations throughout the country.

Relievers on the block 'terrible'
Is your team one of the many out there looking for bullpen help? Good luck.
Here's what ESPN's Buster Olney hears:
Right now the cream of the crop seems to be a trio of Blue Jays: Kevin Gregg, Jason Frasor and Scott Downs. Also, available could be the likes of Pittsburgh's Octavio Dotel, Houston's Brandon Lyon, Seattle's David Aardsma, Kansas City's Kyle Farnsworth, Florida's Leo Nunez, Washington's Matt Capps and Arizona's Chad Qualls and Aaron Heilman. The trade market even had a hiccup when Kerry Wood went on the DL -- that tells you about everything you need to know.

Trade deadline buyer: New York Yankees
As the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline looms, the CBS Facts & Rumors team will look at the biggest players leading up to the deadline. This week we'll look at the teams who will be talked about the most; next week will be the players who might be moved.
Every transaction talk, be it trades or free agents, seems to start with the Yankees and this time is no different.
Record: 58-33, three games ahead of the Rays and 6 1/2 in front of the Red Sox.
GM: Brian Cashman
Expectations: Anything short of another World Series title is failure, plain and simple.
Payroll status: Not that it matters, the Yankees had an opening day payroll of more than $213 million and already have more than $144 million on the books for 2011.
What they need
Starting pitcher: With Andy Pettitte on the disabled list and A.J. Burnett's recent hissy fit, the Yankees suddenly look to need at least one starter. Until now, the opening day rotation of CC Sabathia, Pettitte, Burnett, Javier Vazquez and Phil Hughes had started all but two of their games. That could be matched this week alone. The team may also be wary of letting Hughes' innings add up through a pennant race and the playoffs. Sergio Mitre is scheduled to start in Pettitte's place, but until now, he's been more successful as a reliever than a starter.
Bullpen help: Starting pitching isn't the only pitching concern the Yankees have as Joba Chamberlain's days as the bridge to Mariano Rivera may be numbered, and it's not as if Chan Ho Park is going to step up and replace him.
Damaso Marte was placed on the disabled list this weekend with Boone Logan called up as the team's only left-handed reliever.
Big bat: Marcus Thames has been better than expected as the Yankees designated hitter, hitting .287/.396/.437 with three homers and 13 RBI in 87 at-bats, but he's hardly a difference-maker. This spot -- especially if Jorge Posada is healthy enough not to need a DH safety net -- could be upgraded, especially if that upgrade could be a spot starter in the outfield.
Bench help: After the regulars, the Yankees feature the likes of Ramiro Pena and Colin Curtis. The team could certainly upgrade its depth in both the infield and the outfield.
Who may fit
Starting pitcher: Cliff Lee would have been a great fit, but he's gone. Lee was the marquee name available and there's a decided step down after the newest Texas Ranger. Other starters out there are Ted Lilly, Jake Westbrook, Brett Myers, Roy Oswalt, Dan Haren and maybe even someone like Brian Bannister.
Reliever: There are stop-gap attempts like David Aardsma and Leo Nunez, or the Yankees could go for the kill with someone like Royals closer Joakim Soria. Soria is under club control until 2014, so it would take more than just cash, but also top-flight prospects to get the Royals closer and team him with Rivera to make a formidable back of the bullpen.
Other, less expensive, fits could be either of the Blue Jays pair of relievers, Scott Downs or Jason Frasor.
Bat: Again, going for the kill would be Adam Dunn. Dunn in new Yankee Stadium would be a marriage made in heaven. Dunn doesn't want to DH and he doesn't really have any other value, but he would flourish both in the American League and in pinstripes. Still, the Yankees may not want to give up too much for a player they can just buy in the offseason.
If the Yankees can find a top-end starter, they could send Vazquez to Philadelphia for Jayson Werth. David DeJesus would upgrade the outfield, as well.
Bench help: Wes Helms and Ty Wigginton are corner possibilities and Wigginton can play second, as well. Xavier Nady and Austin Kearns are possible outfield bats that may not be big, but could work for the Yankees.
Trade chips
Catching prospect Jesus Montero was reportedly only available for Lee, however the almighty dollar is always available. Any team looking to clear cash off the bottom line will talk to the Yankees, who could send middling prospects loaded up with money sacks to any team that's interested. And there are always teams interested in that kind of prospect.
Right-hander Zach McAllister is 7-6 with a 4.82 ERA in 18 starts at Triple-A. He doesn't have dominant stuff, but has good control and projects as a back of the rotation-type pitcher.
Right-hander Ivan Nova, 23, has better stats than McAllister (7-2, 3.21, 78 strikeouts in 103 2/3 innings) and has an impressive fastball. Nova has impressive talent, but has also struggled with consistency as a pro. This season is his best yet, and there's a question as to whether he's reached his ceiling. Still, he's got enough talent to be intriguing to other teams.
Mark Melancon has long been bantered about as the replacement for Rivera when Mo decides to turn his sights to Cooperstown, but Melancon has yet to live up to that hype. He could be one of those players that need a change in scenery to live up to his potential, and there's enough potential for other teams to take a chance on him.
Other possibilities include SS Eduardo Nunez and 2B David Adams, who was one of the other guys mentioned in the Lee trade.
Predictions: The Yankees will add a reliever and a starter -- possibly Lilly and the lefty Downs. Other than that, the team may think it doesn't have to do too much to keep ahead of the Rays and Red Sox.

Dodgers searching for pitching
The Dodgers have spoken to the Astros, Blue Jays, Diamondbacks, Indians and Mariners about solutions to the Dodgers' pitching conundrum, reports Evan Drellich of MLB.com. The Dodgers need both starters and relievers.
Manager Joe Torre said that pitching is what the Dodgers are focusing on in any particular deal and expects a deal to eventually be swung. Complicating things is that Los Angeles doesn't have much left in the budget to add, thanks to the brewing divorce between owner Frank McCourt and his wife as well as a current payroll of $102 million according to Cot's Contracts.
So which pitchers could the Dodgers get from the aforementioned teams? Let's take a look.
Astros: Houston has starting pitcher Brett Myers available who is on a one-year deal and has been the second-best starter on the team with a 3.57 ERA. Of course, there's also Roy Oswalt (pictured), who has a standing trade "request" but is due $15 million over the balance of 2010 and $16 million in 2011. And who's to say Oswalt won't demand the $16 million team option for 2012 be picked up if he's traded? With a full no-trade clause, Oswalt has that ability.
The Astros also have a number of relief arms, but none that stand out as an optimal replacement for the Dodgers' current arms -- at least, that would be available. Brandon Lyon is near untradable and it's tough to imagine Houston parting with Matt Lindstrom.
Blue Jays: The Jays have lost 12 of the last 15 and are in fourth place in the AL (B)East, 11 1/2 games out. It's safe to say the honeymoon is over, and the Jays have plenty of pitching available. Their starting pitching are all young, cost-controllable and quality so it's hard to imagine Toronto dealing any of those. The relievers, on the other hand, should be plentiful.
Kevin Gregg has extensive experience pitching in the NL and in close games. He's posted a 3.94 ERA over 32 innings. Left-hander Scott Downs, one of the best setup men in the bigs, is having another fantastic season and Shawn Camp has emerged as another qualty bullpen arm. Casey Janssen is just 28 and is a quality middle relief arm but certainly fungible to a rebuilding squad.
Diamondbacks: Now that the GM and manager have been offered a ticket out of town, interim GM Jerry DiPoto has a lot of decisions to make. One of which is if Dan Haren should be traded, something outgoing GM Josh Byrnes also grappled with. Haren is inked through 2012, getting $8.25 million in 2010 and $12.75 million in 2011 and 2012, affordable for a perennial Cy Young contender. The question here is two-fold:
First being if the Diamondbacks would be willing to swap Haren to an intradivision rival, the second if the Dodgers have enough in the farm system to acquire Haren. The Dodgers were ranked No. 21 in minor-league talent rankings by Baseball America prior to the season and Haren figures to command more than Lee will.
Indians: The Indians have Jake Westbrook most available, who is finishing up a contract that pays him $11 million on the season. Cleveland is ready to have a fire sale (as detailed here ) but has yet to find anyone to their liking that has been dangled for Westbrook. Westbrook would cost significantly less than one of the top-tier pitchers on the market in terms of prospects due to the contract and the fact he is a mid-rotation starter.
Kerry Wood, provided the Indians chipped in a healthy sum of money to make up for about $5 million remaining on Wood's deal, could also head to the Dodgers.
Mariners: The obvious one is Cliff Lee, of course. With about $4 million remaining to Lee, he would easily fit into the Dodgers' payroll. He would also allow Los Angeles a way to beef up its farm system by offering arbitration to the lefty after the season -- which Lee would certainly decline. The Dodgers' payroll collapses to a projected $61 million next year, so a Lee extension is possible as well.
Other potential names that may have been swapped could include closer David Aardsma who could fit in a pitcher's park throwing gas as a setupman. Relief pitcher Brandon League is having a solid season as well.

Slim pickings for bullpen arms
How bad is the reliever market?
The Tigers -- who are without Joel Zumaya -- are in Seattle scouting the bullpens of the Royals and Tigers, AOL Fanhouse's Ed Price writes .
The bullpen arms on display were hardly top shelf -- Kyle Farnsworth, David Aardsma, Brandon League and Chad Cordero.
Price says the Indians are trying to find a taker for Kerry Wood and Pittsburgh is open to getting anything in return for Octavio Dotel.
The best arm on the market may be the Nationals' Matt Capps, but Washington has made no move to indicate they're ready to start dealing, although it's likely only a matter of time.
Capps, the Nationals' All-Star representative, is on a one-year deal he signed on Christmas Eve with Washington. The Nationals have two young bullpen arms under team control that look to be ready to take over the closer's role in Tyler Clippard and Drew Storen.
Because of the lack of relievers on the market, Capps' trade value may be as high as it ever will be and the Nationals should strike while they can.

No matter how many times you've squeezed yourself into the restrictive passage behind the usual target and no matter how many girls who've told you "Just the tip," only to soon open up and divulge their inner ass-fucking freak, you've gotta stop calling yourself Mr. Anal. It's the copyrighted name of an anally concerned Bang Bros site that sees ass-master himself, Mike Adriano gather some bros and plunder and pound the roundest, juiciest, tightest asses in porn.
When it comes to gay hardcore, most sites seem content to peddle their relatively lackluster wares without becoming part of a network. One look at Big Daddy, however, and you'll swear off non-network sites for life. So large is Big Daddy's, uh, "package" and so fulfilling are its widely varied yet consistently high-quality scenes, you'll be hard pressed to find anything else this close to complete homosexual pornographic satisfaction anywhere else online. Big Daddy truly is the Big Daddy of gay porn!
Back in the day, the most hedonistic part of school life was getting the cane from an elder in front of the assembled student body. These days it's all naked Snapchats and selfies and things like that. At least, it is in the real world. In Pornoland, high school is best typified by Innocent High, a site that sees eager or rebellious students vying for the special attention of their hunky teachers. Those teachers, putting their lives and livelihoods on the line for some fresh teenage pussy, should know better. You, however, should simply know Innocent High as intimately as possible.
Danger Core seems to operate under a fairly simple premise: cast porn's hottest women and sufficiently equipped men to fuck their brains out, shoot it all in HD and throw it online for the fans to gorge on. Should be a recipe for unqualified success, right? Well, Danger Core is a very enjoyable site, yes, but it's also lacking a little originality, personality, and finesse, the things that would make it really stand out and command your complete attention. Much like the other sites on its home network, also called Danger Core (wha?), this site is a solid effort from a distinguished crew, but could be much more fulfilling overall.
Your own marriage might be dull and joyless, but there's no sense in discard the idea of a legally-binding union between two adult humans just because you chose poorly. Perhaps if you'd chosen, say, Julia Ann or Raylene or Chanel Preston you'd be living an IRL Real Wife Stories adventure that would see your dick sucked, ridden, and emptied by all three beauties (on separate occasions, too.). Or you could be on the other side of these unfathomably lusty encounters, in the role of a cuckold who has no choice but to sit back and watch as his amazing, exquisite wife lowers herself to the level of common gutter slut. It's marriage, Brazzers-style. It's Real Wife Stories. And it's asking for your hand.
Taking Teen Mega World members and any others interested in seeing hot young Euro gals rubbed into a state of total arousal on a visually-stunning trip through almost 200 incredibly erotic laying-on of hands, Tricky Masseur is a fairly strong addition to the slate of massage porn sites cropping up over the past few years. What Tricky Masseur lacks in originality and exclusivity it makes up for with HD videos of Euro beauties enjoying the intimate touch of their partners and you enjoy the intimate touch of, well, yourself.
Mike Adriano spent years working as a boner-for-hire before being given his shot at directing, but he immediately rose to prominence as the one man willing to thrust his camera into the deepest, darkest, moistest parts of human sexuality. Training his camera on the quivering assholes of porn's hottest girls and aiming his dick at their innards and their throats, Adriano and his official self-titled site offers extraordinarily explicit hardcore porn like you've never seen before.
You've had the pleasure of being blown by twenty- and thirty- and even forty-somethings, but until you've found yourself staring down in disbelief at the pretty face of a cock-hungry teenage slut, you haven't known true sexual ecstasy. Only Teen Blowjobs won't deliver such a girl to your doorstep, but it does provide hundreds of sloppy, slurpy, sensual bouts of fellatio that won't be seen elsewhere. Ah, youth!

Smooth easy burn first to last draw. Great taste.
Smooth! Effortless draw from start to finish! Lots of smoke at foot and head. Ash only dropped off twice from start to finish! Lots of full flavor but not hard on the mouth! great cigar!
Beautiful looking stick but in the end It was "Just OK" with burn issues starting at about 1" in ... It was a lot of effort for a 3 plus hour smoke. I was exhausted by the end and it tasted "Just OK".

Sewer System on Harkers Island…
I feel strongly that a sewer system on Harkers Island will be a determinant to the local population. Sounds to me like many of the required permits have already been granted. One approach to fight such plans would be to convince the Federal Gov't not to proceed. With that said, please take a few moments to write your congressmen. In the days of internet, it is super easy. Just click the links below:
Please share this page on social media, etc. If enough of write, perhaps someone will look into this and we just might prevail.
I've prepared sample text you are free to use, or modify as you wish. It only takes a few seconds.
The Honorable [Senator/Representative]
United State [Senate/House of Representatives]
Washington, DC 20510
Dear [Senator/Representative Name]:
It has come to my attention that the Cape Lookout National Park Service has contracted with newly formed Harkers Island Sewer Company to provide sewage services to the Visitor's Center on Harkers Island. As I understand it, effort will have the effect of federally funding a sewer line across much of the length of the Harkers Island community, greatly reducing the costs to connect to a sewer system.
As a matter of history, the residents of Harkers Island have rejected efforts to establish a sewer system. We have been protected by up-front costs to private individuals to establish this infrastructure. We never imagined the US Government would fund such an effort.
Many concerns exists, including:
- -Why does the Park Service need additional sewer capability? Additional development of Shell Point would be out of character of the original procurement of the land.
- -Environmental concerns with a non-municipal, profit motivated, sewer system in such close proximity to wetlands and surrounding sounds.
- -A lack of community involvement and information. It just feels underhanded. Personally, I heard nothing about it until I read about it in the local newspaper. (http://www.carolinacoastonline.com/news_times/article_9fd7c46e-c518-11e4-a35f-abc8f74f696c.html)
However, the primary concerns was/is that such a system will allow high density development on Harkers Island. Such high density development will undoubtedly raise property values dramatically. As property values rise, so will a sharp increase in property taxes. Further increase in property taxes will force large segments of the remaining local population (whose ancestors lived on the lands now comprising the Cape Lookout National Park Service) to sell their property. This vacated property would spur an additional round of dense development, and so on…
I believe a sewer system on Harkers Island would very likely be the catalysis that would destroy our way of life. Allowing the US Park Service to, even indirectly, fund such an effort would destroy our cultural and natural resources.
I request you investigate this matter to your satisfaction, pray that you arrive at the same conclusions, and stop any federal dollars used to extend these sewer systems.
[Your Name]

Singing, acting both stellar in 'Figaro'
Actors are taught to act and opera singers are taught to sing - and all too rarely do the twain really meet.

Gary Allan on new songs, vocal surgery
When I talked to Gary Allan earlier this week, we covered more ground than was able to fit in the full feature that appears here on Tap Milwaukee. Here is more of the conversation we shared as he waited to make a Monday night appearance on "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon." (Click here to watch his spot on the show.)
As Allan prepares to visit The Rave tonight, he discussed why he thought "Tough Goodbye," the lead song (co-written by Cedarburg native Josh Thompson) from his Billboard chart-topping new album, "Set You Free," would be the first single. He also talked about how a vocal cord operation that he underwent just before recording the album has made him feel like a whole new singer, and his approach to Nashville after spending his early years (starting at 12 years old) playing honky tonks and clubs in California's Bakersfield-inspired country music scene. »Read Full Blog Post

Candy Chang's 'Before I Die...' comes to Milwaukee
There is something about a death that can be focusing. For New Orleans artist Candy Chang, the loss of a dear friend, initially lead to a long period of grief and depression that eventually turned to gratitude and clarity.
She wanted to know what was important, to her and to those in her around her. So the artist, known for her placemaking projects and urban planning ideas, painted the side of an abandoned building with chalkboard paint and stenciled the words, "Before I die I want to..." onto it. »Read Full Blog Post(1)

Under fire for being a technophobe, John McCain will unveil a technology agenda that bundles previously announced pro-business proposals with continued support for a hands-off approach to regulation.
The plan, dubbed "John McCain and American Innovation," is set to be released Thursday on the Republican presidential candidate's campaign Web site. It will call for a 10% tax credit on wages paid to all research-and-development employees. At the same time, it will reiterate Sen. McCain's opposition to Internet taxes and new laws guaranteeing net neutrality, the idea that Internet providers must treat all legal Internet traffic equally.
The goal of the plan, said McCain spokesman Taylor Griffin, is to create "good, high-paying, innovation-oriented 21st-century jobs."
Technology policy has not been a front-burner issue for either Sen. McCain or his Democratic rival, Sen. Barack Obama. However, it has become more critical for the McCain campaign in recent weeks, as perceptions grow -- encouraged by Democrats -- that Sen. McCain is less than tech-savvy.
The Arizona senator's age -- 71 -- hasn't helped. In June, he made an offhand comment about using "a Google" to research vice-presidential nominees. Later, he told reporters that he doesn't use the Internet as much as his wife and children.
Sen. McCain will roll out his technology agenda as part of a broader focus on economic policy, said Meg Whitman, former chief executive of eBay Inc. and a national co-chairwoman of the McCain campaign.
The plan resulted from months of work by several of Sen. McCain's former telecommunications-policy aides and supporters, including former Federal Communications Commission Chairman Michael Powell.
Sen. Obama's plan, released last year, emphasized issues important to organized labor and Democratic activists, such as pressing for media-ownership diversity, ensuring an open Internet and encouraging affordable Internet access.
Although Sen. Obama has raised more money in Silicon Valley, both candidates have their share of high-tech supporters. Several CEOs have signed on to support Sen. McCain, including Ms. Whitman, Cisco Systems Inc.'s John Chambers and former Hewlett-Packard Co. CEO Carly Fiorina.
Among the newer ideas in Sen. McCain's plan is the 10% tax credit on R&D wages. Mr. Griffin said it would serve as an incentive for companies to hire local workers rather than seek cheaper labor overseas.
Ms. Whitman said that when she headed eBay, she grappled with the pros and cons of hiring overseas: cheaper labor costs, but a loss of proximity. The tax credit will help "keep those jobs here at home," she said.
Sen. McCain will also call for an expansion of the H1-B visa program in order to allow foreign guest workers to "fill the shortfall of qualified labor" for highly skilled technology jobs, Mr. Griffin said.
The agenda bundles some of Sen. McCain's previously announced economic-growth proposals, such as keeping capital-gains taxes at 15% and lowering corporate tax rates. In addition, the plan will reiterate Sen. McCain's support for free trade and open markets, something he says will help U.S. technology companies.
The plan will emphasize the importance of providing tax breaks to companies that offer high-speed Internet access in low-income and rural areas.
Sen. Obama laid out his technology plan last November in a speech at Google Inc.'s headquarters. He proposed the creation of a national "chief technology officer," and he also called for greater government transparency by putting more information online.
The Democratic candidate's agenda calls for tightening the definition of "high-speed" broadband and using a federal subsidy program that pays for phone services in rural and low-income areas to fund Internet service in those regions.
Sen. Obama's support of "net neutrality" has been cheered by Democratic activists, including those at the political activist group Moveon.org, who have been concerned about the ability of phone and cable companies to selectively slow or block Internet traffic. He has supported efforts by Democratic lawmakers to codify Internet protections.
Sen. McCain maintains that Congress shouldn't get involved in writing rules for the Internet. Any net-neutrality problems should be left to federal regulators like the FCC to deal with, he says.
