Angel Guzman Throws in Intrasquad Game at Fitch Park
Continuing his rehab from last September's Tommy John surgery, Angel Guzman threw 14 pitches (8 balls & 6 strikes) in an EXST Camp Day intrasquad game at Fitch Park this morning.
Guzman had previously thrown a "simulated game" last Friday and a "live" BP session on Monday.
Guzman faced four batters, walking Junior Lake on four pitches to start the game. Then an errant pick-off throw by Guzman allowed Lake to advance to 2nd base. Brandon Guyer grounded out to short on an 0-1 pitch, as Lake advanced to 3rd base with one out.
Drew Rundle then pulled a hard-hit ground double past 1st base on a 1-0 pitch, driving in Lake for the first run. Rundle stole third on the first pitch to clean-up hitter John Contreras, before Contreras hit a F-8 SF on a 3-2 pitch to finish Guzman's day (he was supposed to throw "around" 15 pitches).
As long as he has no setbacks from today's outing, Guzman will probably make his Cactus League Extended Spring Training game debut sometime next week
Recently converted to pitcher, ex-catcher Jake Muyco got into his first game action today, and struggled through his one inning of work, allowing two runs.
Today's intrasquad game also provided a rare glimpse of RHP Chris Huseby, who has been suffering from an EXTREME control problem since Minor League Camp that has limited him to bullpen sessions and one "live" BP session that went just so-so. .
One of the Cubs better pitching prospects coming into the 2008 season, Huseby was expected to start the year at the top of Peoria's starting rotation. But the 6'7 right-hander just can't find home plate.
It's very similar to what happened with Luke Hagerty last year, where his pitches either bounce in the dirt, or go over the catcher's head, or hit the batter. And it's the reason he has been held out of game action. He's just plain dangerous.
And today was a good example, as Huseby was yanked after just 11 pitches (only two strikes), an outing where he walked two, hit a batter (and almost hit two others), and threw two wild pitches.
Huseby probably will be assigned to Boise when the short season leagues begin play next month (with a 30-man roster, the Hawks can afford to stash away some extra pitchers), but he probably won't get much game action until he can find home plate. .
Today also marked the return of Cubs 2007 5th round pick Brandon Guyer to LF. Prior to today, Guyer (a Matt Murton clone) had been restricted to DH duty only while recovering from a fractured elbow.
Guyer will likely be assigned to Boise next month, although he could get moved up to Peoria before that if the Cubs feel the Chiefs need a right-handed hitting LF to platoon with Dylan Johnston.
As is sometimes necessary due to not having enough players available to staff two squads, the position players rotated between defense and offense without regard to "teams" in today's intrasquad game. Some of the players got more ABs than others, while others did not hit at all.
Here is the box score (such as it is):
Junior Lake, SS: 0-2 (R, BB, 2 K)
Brandon Guyer, LF: 0-1
Drew Rundle, RF: 1-1 (RBI, R, 2B, SB)
John Contreras, 1B: 1-1 (3 RBI, 3B, SF, CS)
George Matheus, 2B: 1-2 (R, HBP)
Gian Guzman, SS: 0-4 (R, BB)
Cesar Salazar, CF: 1-3 (RBI, BB)
Bryan Jost, 1B: 2-4 (2 RBI, 2 R, 2B, 2 K, SB)
Nelson Perez, RF: 1-3 (R, CS)
Jeffrey Rea, 2B: 0-2
Luis Bautista, C: 0-0 (R, HBP)
Alvaro Sosa, C: 0-1
Josh Vitters, 3B: DID NOT BAT (sore hand)
Kevin Soto, LF-CF: DID NOT BAT
Roberto Sabates and Carlos Perez warmed-up pitchers in the bullpen but did not get an AB, and Dwayne Kemp and Starlin Castro did not play.
1. Jake Muyco - 1.0 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 0 BB, 0 K, 1 HBP, 1 WP 0/2 GO/FO)
2. Carlos Rojas - 1.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K (1/1 GO/FO)
3. Ryan Searle - 1.1 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 0 BB, 1 K (2/0 GO/FO)
1. Angel Guzman - 0.2 IP, 1 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 0 K (1/1 GO/FO)
2. Chris Huseby - 0.0 IP, 0 H, 2 R, 2 BB, 0 K, 1 HBP, 2 WP
3. Eduardo Figueroa - 2.1 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 0 BB, 1 K (2/4 GO/FO)
Angel Guzman overthrow on pick-off attempt at 1B allowed runner to advance to 2B,
Junior Lake made errant throw trying to double runner off 2nd base after catching a line drive, and runner scored from 2nd base (the throw went into the RF corner):
Luis Bautista: 1-3 CS
Alvaro Sosa: 1-1 CS
WEATHER: Overcast with game-time highs in the 80's
ATTENDANCE: 3 (I've noticed that Camp Day usually doesn't draw quite as well as the other days)

Re: Angel Guzman Throws in Intrasquad Game at Fitch Park
Phil, Is Rhee at Fitch? Have you heard any report on him? Thanks.
Ryan Harvey demoted to Daytona
Re: Ryan Harvey demoted to Daytona
what's the point?
great power stroke (insane power stroke)...too bad it pretty much only works on 60-90mph fastballs in BP/game.
killer arm, too.
still...looks like he's hit a developmental brick wall if he can't figure out AA pitching at this stage in his career.
The solution for Haggerty and Huseby's wildness
Let 'em pitch exclusively to Felix Pie in simulated games.
He'll swing at everything out of the zone and take anything in it and they'll both get their confidence back.
Re: Angel Guzman Throws in Intrasquad Game at Fitch Park
Guzman is quickly becoming the mythical beast of yore, akin to the Unicorn or Centaur. AZ Phil, what are the club's expectations for this oft - injured budding phenom? If he gets promoted to Peoria and/or AA before the season's over, will his TJ surgery be considered successful? Thanks in advance for responding.
Re: Angel Guzman Throws in Intrasquad Game at Fitch Park
AZ Phil:
Thanks for a great report, as usual. You've probably seen enough of Angel Guzman to have an opinion--is their something in his delivery that has contributed to all his injuries, or does he just seem to you to have an especially fragile arm? Thanks.
Re: Angel Guzman Throws in Intrasquad Game at Fitch Park
the weird thing about guzman, because of his injuries/rehab and adjustments, is that he's got about 1/2 dozen+ pitches out of multiple arm slots.
as far as what he's throwing now out of what slot, i dunno...but he's got a huge arsenal of possible stuff.
seen him throw fastballs out of 3/4 slot and sidearm...slider 3/4 and sidearm...overhand change and fastball...god only knows what else over the years...
what is he throwing now predominately?
Re: Angel Guzman Throws in Intrasquad Game at Fitch Park
Too bad about Harvey. He's obviously got a little talent just strikes out WAY too much.
edmonds story with quotes...
Re: Angel Guzman Throws in Intrasquad Game at Fitch Park
Demp for Cy Young?
Re: Angel Guzman Throws in Intrasquad Game at Fitch Park
At at least a return to the ASG?
Holliday might be on the market According to Rosenthal.
Could be an option if Edmonds doesnt work out. Holliday would be under Cubs control next year before he is a FA and Aaron Cook is a FA after this year so I could also imagine he would be on the block to. Maybe in a perfect world we could pull off
Cook and Holliday for Murton, Pie, Gallagher, Hill, Epat, Ceda, and Veal
Jimbo couldnt probably pull the trigger on the deal due to ownership, but adding Holliday would give us the a top 5 line-up in MLB history and Cook can help stablize the rotation. The deal would also fill COL needs in LF and 2b, give them a pitcher taylor made for Coors in Gallagher, some good pen arms in Ceda and Veal and a CF who can go it in that large park in Pie.
Re: Holliday might be on the market According to Rosenthal.
Holiday's 3-year Away split:
.281 / .343 / .466
Re: Angel Guzman Throws in Intrasquad Game at Fitch Park
I like the way the next series is shaping up. MKE and STL face the two best (by record) teams in the AL, while the Cubs face the mighty Pirates. Time to widen the lead!
Pittsburgh is on a roll now
I think they have won something like 7 out of their last 11.
Re: Angel Guzman Throws in Intrasquad Game at Fitch Park
Astros are currently in 2nd place, and on a serious roll, and they have played a lot more games on the road than at home.
Down 6-0 to Lincecum (sp) yesterday, and they score 4 in the 8th and one in the 9th to win it. Berkman is on fire, and has been for a while.
Re: Angel Guzman Throws in Intrasquad Game at Fitch Park
Chifan is right. Right now, the Pirates are not the same team as a couple weeks ago.
Even if the Cubs win 1 of 3,, its a 7-3 home stand.
Re: Angel Guzman Throws in Intrasquad Game at Fitch Park
Actually... they were playing decent baseball even when they were playing the Cubs earlier in the year.
If you take out the 6 losses against the Cubs, the team has a 20-15 record.
Re: Cub All Stars
Re: Cub All Stars
Dempster will be there if he keeps it up. Marmol deserves to go as well.IMHO
Re: Cub All Stars
I think they will take one starter from Cubs.
Marmol is intriguing, has there been any set up men who have been All Stars?
Re: Cub All Stars
Justin Duchscherer
Tom Gordon
Are the recent 3 that come to mind.
Re: Cub All Stars
Soto, Lee, Z should all be in without question.
But I would also say that Dempster should be in without question, and Fukudome, ARam, and Marmol all have very legitimate arguments to get in.
Fukudome is 4th among NL RF in OPS, plays excellent defense, and leads all of baseball in walks. And don't forget the power of the Japanese vote.
ARam is 2nd among NL 3b in OPS.
Re: Cub All Stars
Current VORP for NL First Basemen:
Berkman 42
Pujols 28
C. Jackson: 17
Derrek Lee: 16.6
I'd say Marmol, Z, Soto, Ramirez (as a backup to Chipper) would be deserving
Dempster (12th in VORP),Lee and Fukudome on the outskirts. Soriano still can get himself in the discussion.
Re: Cub All Stars
Yea... I looked after, and saw the 1b numbers. Lee has seen a significant drop in May.
And Berkman has been ridiculous.
And again... Fukudome may not necessarily have the numbers, but it wouldn't surprise me if he was voted in as a starter. Or at least voted in as the final guy.
MH hit another home run last night for the I-Cubs. That makes three games in a row he homered.
Our erstwhile #3 SP RICH is on the HILL tonight at 7 PM.
Re: Angel Guzman Throws in Intrasquad Game at Fitch Park
Thanks, Phil. I really hope Guzman can put his injury history behind him; he's always had the stuff to be a major leaguer and I could see him contributing as a spot starter or out of the bullpen late in the season. I dread a late season rotation that includes Marquis. Having guys like Marshall, Gallagher, and Guzman to step up and take that spot would be great.
Reds attendance down 9%
Makes you wonder what they'll do for fans after Griffey Jr. hits #600.
Re: Angel Guzman Throws in Intrasquad Game at Fitch Park
Harvey is not the only guy who deserved to get knocked back to Daytona. Harvey probably has a better chance of pitching in the majors than that wide receiver does. Can the Cubs still trade Samardzija to an NFL team?
Samardzija's line yesterday:
4 innings, 10 hits, 6 runs, 6 ER, 5 walks, 1 K, 1 HR.
Plesac had an interesting point on the radio a few weeks ago
and that was that Shark has not been committed to baseball a 100% for years so he is actually behind the learning curve for what his age and college expirence might lead one to believe.
Re: guy who deserved to get knocked back to Daytona
Why stop with Harvey and Samardzija? The Smokies are 15-26 for a good reason.
Go Farm Go!
Re: guy who deserved to get knocked back to Daytona
wins and losses in minor league games?
last friday i saw jeff neimann...TB pimp...pitch 3ip of AAA ball then hand it over to the pen to help get the loss.
why 3ip of ball? cuz that's what he and the parent organization needed...not the team.
the concept of a "team" in the minor leagues is sketchy at best. its structured exercise of what's been worked on in practice, especially at the lower levels unless you already got your refinement down or the coaches don't care enough to tweak you anymore and are gonna let you sink/swim your own way.
what about the win? what about it...minor leagues aren't there to win games (psst, dont tell the fans).
Re:minor leagues aren't there to win games
Well, this appears to be true in the Cubs organization even if it is crazy talk.
Baseball is a zero-sum game. Somebody has to win and somebody else has to lose. But, following your premise, if no one is trying to win, then it's even more likely that the organization with the most talent and ability will win.
If winners and losers were determined only by luck then everyone would finish the season around .500, which is not the case.

39 pitch inning by Lester. I guess it's a wash vs yesterday's 1st when Lackey gave up 2 run HR.
39 pitch, 2 run, 1st inning for lester. bleh.
horrible control so far today.
lester threw over to 1st! ...badly. braun takes 2nd.
it was a slow rainbow throw.
wow...villar just stole 3rd (after stealing 2nd) by walking 1/2 way to 3rd and then just sprinting toward 3rd with lester watching him do it from the mound.
Torres for Chapman I think Yankees are aiming high,but would much rather get him to keep away from Giants or Nationals.
The Chris Sale five-day suspension includes yesterday, so it's only through Wednesday, and therefore he will probably start against the Cubs on Thursday. And he'll be pissed-off and rested, too.
Sale suspended five games. Thank you, White Sox.
Lineup without You go, We go... probably just applying hamstring precautions
LaStella (2B), KB, Rizzo, Zobrist (RF), Contreras (LF), Heyward, Russell, Ross, Lester
Nathan up. Adam Warren to Iowa. Based on recent performance, I have no argument with that.
Drew Storen DFA'd by Bluejays. Another once interesting reliever who fell off a cliff. Bosio fixer-upper vs. irreparably broken?
Don't want.
Ken Davidoff, NY Post...
An industry source told The Post that the Yankees had asked serious Chapman suitors — a list believed to include the Nationals, the Cubs and the Indians, as well as a mystery team — for their best and final offers. While that doesn't clinch a trade of Chapman, the impending free agent, it makes such a transaction darn likely. The Yankees intend to hold onto Miller, who is signed through 2018.
I'm thinking mystery team is the Tigers or Giants
from Iowa yesterday in extended inning starts, Cahill was bad/Matusz was pretty good. Soler (0-3, walk), Coghlan (1-3, double, walk) did play in AA.
That's a hell of a first impression by Montgomery. Brian Cashman having a good laugh on that debut.
...and it's a 3 run homer.
hey, vogelbomb had a HR on his 1st game with SEA AAA, too!

Financial Audit:
1997 Consolidated Financial Statements of the United States Government
AIMD-98-127: Published: Mar 31, 1998. Publicly Released: Mar 31, 1998.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-3317
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
GAO reviewed the 1997 consolidated financial statements of the United States government.
GAO noted that: (1) significant financial systems weaknesses, problems with fundamental recordkeeping, incomplete documentation, and weak internal controls, including computer controls, prevent the government from accurately reporting a large portion of its assets, liabilities, and costs; (2) these deficiencies affect the reliability of the consolidated financial statements and much of the underlying financial information; (3) they also affect the government's ability to accurately measure the full cost and financial performance of programs, effectively and efficiently manage its operations, and ensure compliance with laws and regulations; (4) major problems include the federal government's inability to: (a) properly account for and report billions of dollars of property, equipment, materials, and supplies; (b) properly estimate the cost of most federal credit programs and the related loans receivable and loan guarantee liabilities; (c) estimate and report material amounts of environmental and disposal liabilities and related costs; (d) determine the proper amount of various reported liabilities, including postretirement health benefits for military compensation benefits, accounts payable, and other liabilities; (e) accurately report major portions of the net costs of government operations; (f) determine the full extent of improper payments that occur in major programs and that are estimated to involve billions of dollars annually; (g) properly account for billions of dollars of basic transactions, especially those between governmental entities; (h) ensure that the information in the consolidated financial statements is consistent with agencies' financial statements; (i) ensure that all disbursements are properly recorded; and (j) effectively reconcile the change in net position reported in the financial statements with budget results; (5) these deficiencies prevented GAO from being able to form an opinion on the reliability of the consolidated financial statements; (6) considerable effort is already under way to address these problems; (7) several individual agencies that have been audited for a number of years faced serious deficiencies in their initial audits and have made good progress in resolving them; (8) with a concerted effort, the federal government, as a whole, can continue to make progress toward generating reliable information on a regular basis; and (9) annual financial statement audits are essential to ensuring the effectiveness of the improvements now under way.

I have been going to the Mistral for years now, for short weekends, when in France. Le Mistral is 2 blocks away from the Roissy shuttle bus stop and 4 blocks away from the metro, very conveniently located thus, and with plenty of restaurants and theaters in the little streets around. The neighborhood is very safe, well lit at night. For those interested in French literature, this is the place where Jean Paul Sartre and Simonne de Beauvoir used to meet. A very interesting cemetery is also just a block away, with lots of famous people there and great sculptures and artwork on their spots. The staff is really very nice and helpful. The breakfast is not very expensive and is very copious, fresh and tasty. Room prices are very cheap for Paris. The rooms are not fancy, so don't expect the Hilton, but if a clean, good, and quiet spot at a good/cheap price is what you are looking for then you will not be disappointed. Also, there's no air conditioning in most French hotels, and this goes for the Mistral. Another thing is the Montparnasse tower is right next door, which means lots of nice shopping, and also the Montparnasse train station is also right there, making it convenient to travel to other parts of the country.

No likeable lead, no interesting relationships, no laughs {that work�plenty that don`t}, and, aside from the scattered low-angle shot and an episode devoted to lusty lesbian hi-jinks, surprisingly little fan-service.

The bank sees a gradual shift towards 'helicopter money' by advanced economies as countries struggle to boost growth. » Read More
Stocks bounced back from an early slide as banks recovered and strength permeated techs, housing and retail stocks. The market had opened lower as oil neared $140 a barrel and after a report from the New York Federal Reserve on regional manufacturing activity showed a worse-than-expected contraction. Lehman shares rose after the firm reported a loss on target with its pre-announcement.
Only a year ago, Wall Street reveled in an era of superlatives: record deals, record profit, record pay. But a mere 12 months later, nearly half of the profits that major banks reaped during that age of riches have vanished, the New York Times reported.
American International Group CEO Martin Sullivan stepped down from his post, as expected, after growing discontent among the board and shareholders with his management of the insurance giant.
American International Group is expected to hold a board meeting Sunday to decide the fate of Chief Executive Martin Sullivan, CNBC has learned.
For the week ending Friday, June 13, 2008, the markets were mixed on varied economic news, renewed credit concerns from Lehman and the financial sector, and of course, oil. A surprise increase in retail sales gave hope for economic growth and a rising CPI suggested a potential rate move on the horizon that could strengthen the dollar and begin to tame inflation.
After another volatile Wall Street session, Dylan labels Thursday "a big fiasco," with the lion's share of the blame going to the Microsoft-Yahoo crash-and-burn. Any possible deal has been aborted for the second and -- very likely -- last time.
Stocks pulled back following news that the Microsoft-Yahoo deal is off. Earlier, the market had rallied as oil prices receded, retail sales came in better than expected and merger in the beverage industry got investors jazzed up.
Stocks were well off their highs but still posting solid gains after unexpected strength in retail sales and a multibillion-dollar takeover bid in the brewing sector.
Stocks opened higher Thursday after a better-than-expected jump in retail sales and a bid by Belgium-based brewer InBev for Budweiser-maker Anheuser-Busch, but news of the ouster of two high-level executives at Lehman Brothers rattled the market.
In a blow to Citigroup Chief Executive Vikram Pandit, the bank plans to close a hedge fund he co-founded and will buy what is left of its assets, The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.
Stocks struggled to hold gains Tuesday as bank stocks rallied but comments from Bernanke hung over the market like a cloud. Oil dropped more than $3 to settle at $131.31 a barrel.
Lehman Brothers may find itself on more secure ground, but its poor showing in the second quarter has undermined confidence in banks and brokerages and left investors wondering what to believe about the state of the credit crisis.
Stocks ticked higher Tuesday as the rally started in bank stocks and then filtered into the broader market.
Blue chips tried to muster an advance Tuesday, encouraged by a rally in bank stocks, but comments from Bernanke hung over the market like a cloud.
Stocks opoened lower Tuesday after Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said late Monday high energy prices risk increasing inflation.
U.S. bank Citigroup is pulling its core businesses closer together within a "universal bank" to take advantage of changes in trade and capital, Chief Executive Vikram Pandit said on Tuesday.
Stocks finished mostly higher following a choppy trading day, though weakness in tech companies and the financials thwarted a more substantial rally.

Read an ExcerptWords Kids Need to Hear To Help Them Be Who God Made Them To Be
By David Staal Zondervan Copyright © 2008 David Staal
All right reserved.
Chapter One "I Believe in You"
This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Matthew 3:17
Say the word "camping," and you'll get a variety of reactions. Some recall hours filled with breathing fresh air, watching stars, and battling bugs on a back country, three-day hike. Others will conjure up a visit to the great outdoors in their recreational vehicle, munching micro-waved popcorn around a campfire before making a three-step escape back into air conditioned, bug-free comfort to watch a movie. In our family, though, camping is shorthand for two annual events: one week of father-son camp with Scott and one week of father-daughter camp with Erin.
The camp we visit, which our church holds each year in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, lacks luxuries such as plumbing and electricity. But that fact is vastly overshadowed by its abundance of bugs and stars. And life-changing lessons.
A Journey of Inches
On the first day of our inaugural father-son camp, my then-seven-year-old son, Scott, enthusiastically climbed a twenty-foot ladder to the high ropes adventure course waiting at the top. I reluctantly followed him, concerned over how quickly the solid ground I love so much fell further away with every step. The thin safety harnesses digging into my waist and legs provided a constant reminder about the fear I face whenever I battle gravity.
Once on the platform, I worked to hide my fear from Scott, from our sixteen-year-old safety guide, and from several fathers and sons who watched safely from the ground-that wonderful place I sorely missed. A light wind dried the perspiration on my forehead as I squeezed my face into a fake smile. Then that wind blew harder. The platform swayed. And I prayed.
The first leg of the ropes course required us to face one another, place our hands on each other's shoulders, and walk sideways on what resembled dual telephone cables. Loose telephone cables designed to carry calls, not people, I thought. With every side-step, we swayed. The more I tried to steady us, the more we wobbled. My cheap smile shrank, and Scott's fear grew, as did my feelings of inadequacy to protect my child. RV camping suddenly seemed so attractive.
Halfway across the forty-foot cable, Scott froze. He refused to go farther. He looked down, looked at me, looked down, looked at me-and, in a voice so soft that only I could hear him, said, "Dad, I'm too scared."
Oh, how I wanted to shout, "So am I, son. What on earth are we doing up here?"
Instead, I whispered back, "You're right-this is very scary. We can quit if you want. But I believe you can make it one more step because you've gone this far. Do you want to try?"
"You really think I can?"
"Buddy, I believe in you-you can do it. I'm sure."
Confidence overpowered fear as Scott slid his right foot six inches. "You're right," he said, and we inched our way to safety on the next platform. A mixture of cheers and tears erupted. Part of them were mine-for our safety, certainly, but even more for the words that had so unexpectedly come at just the right time, words that would mark the beginning of an incredibly powerful confidence inside my son.
My mind vividly captured that moment. Fortunately, so did another dad's camera. With computer-design help from a friend, I used the photo to create a poster for Scott that declares, "Bravery is when you keep going even though you're scared."
A couple months later, my family sat around our dining room table, enjoying a meal with neighbors. During conversation that jumped from one topic to another, Scott mentioned a career option he might consider: the military.
"You, a soldier?" one of the neighbor girls mocked.
Scott shot out of his seat, ran to his room, and came back with his poster.
"I'd be a good soldier," he said, "because I'm brave!"
Four simple words-"I believe in you"-whispered during a brief encounter twenty feet above the ground had redefined Scott's view of himself. That phrase gave my son the confidence he needed to move forward through life, even if just one small step at a time. Why? Because when a parent believes in you, you begin to believe in yourself. It bolsters your self-worth. And self-worth matters.
Wobbly Steps and Long Strides
Every child needs to feel accepted and valued. He constantly wonders about himself and wrestles with competing self-perceptions-his abilities versus his inabilities. Ideally, the people closest to him will help tip the scales in this internal battle. When a parent or other respected adult rises to the challenge, the healthy self-worth this creates can help the child's confidence to blossom. The thought process works something like this: "My dad believes in me-so I should believe in myself." Sometimes the result is a wobbly step only six inches long. Other times, larger strides take place.
A child propped up by such confidence will face the inevitable challenges of life with resolve. Such was the case with Wilma Rudolph. Early in life, doctors told her mother that, due to a debilitating disease, Wilma might not walk again. Wilma decided to embrace a different prognosis. "My mother told me I would, so I believed my mother." And that belief became the foundation that later enabled her to become a U.S. Olympic Gold Medalist in the 100, 200, and 400 (relay) meter races.
Words Defined
While the phrase "I believe in you" seems simple, let's take a closer look, because the message it conveys can actually be rather complex.
Kids constantly listen to their parents' views on a multitude of topics. Along the way, curiosity about what mom or dad thinks of them naturally arises as well. In fact, "What does Mom think of me?" or "What does Dad think of me?" can be one of the most persistent questions looming in young minds. And when the question is not answered to their satisfaction, kids can spend lifetimes wondering if they have mom or dad's approval.
In his book Wild at Heart, John Eldridge says that boys long to hear "You have what it takes to be a man." Girls too need to hear they're making praise-worthy progress toward maturity-and receive parental approval along the way.
Fail to share such messages with a child, and he or she can grow up missing a healthy self-worth and looking for that elusive assurance from others. Instead, express your belief in a son or daughter early and often, and confusion can yield to confidence. Take it from Duke University's legendary basketball coach, Mike Kryzyzewski, who is a big fan of the power of "I believe in you." He says, "Those four words can mean the difference between a fear of failure and the courage to try."
The sooner your son or daughter hears those four words, the better, because your belief in your child is every bit as powerful in elementary school as in college. Arguably, more so!
Phil and Gail saw this truth pay off with their sixth-grade son, Ryan. He tried out for a drama team, but didn't make the cut because he lacked important vocal projection skills. While he was disappointed, the setback didn't cause him to quench his desire to perform. Instead, only a few months later he boldly tried out for his middle school's spring musical-and landed the lead. Where did his confidence come from? When Gail asked Ryan what made him go after the role, he told her, "I believed I could do it because I knew you and Dad believed in me!"
Ryan's parents sent him the right message. A child will hear and trust "I believe in you" when the words feel authentic-in contrast to canned, overused statements such as "You're a great kid." Here's why: a platitude such as this-while well-intended-can sound cheap, impersonal, and plain too easy to say. In contrast, "I believe in you" communicates a parent's personal conviction and will last significantly longer in a child's memory. A kid like Ryan wouldn't benefit from hearing he's great-he needed to know someone sincerely believed in him so he could have solid footing to believe in himself.
Or put another way, hollow words can neutralize noble parental intentions. To prevent this unfortunate reality, psychologist Chick Moorman encourages the use of descriptive praise instead of shallow evaluation. "Descriptive praise describes accomplishments or situations and affirms the child rather than evaluates what he has done," he explains.

@MISC{Roth08enhancedcollaborative, author = {Brian D. Roth and Ilan M. Kroo}, title = {ENHANCED COLLABORATIVE OPTIMIZATION: A DECOMPOSITION-BASED METHOD FOR MULTIDISCIPLINARY DESIGN}, year = {2008}}
Astute choices made early in the design process provide the best opportunity for reducing the life cycle cost of a new product. Optimal decisions require reasonably detailed disciplinary analyses, which pose coordination challenges. These types of complex multidisciplinary problems are best addressed through the use of decomposition-based methods, several of which have recently been developed. Two of these methods are collaborative optimization (CO) and analytical target cascading (ATC). CO was conceived in 1994 in response to multidisciplinary design needs in the aerospace industry. Recent progress has led to an updated version, enhanced collaborative optimization (ECO), that is introduced in this paper. ECO addresses many of the computational challenges inherent in CO, yielding significant computational savings and more robust solutions. ATC was formalized in 2000 to address needs in the automotive industry. While ATC was originally developed for object-based decomposition, it is also applicable to multidisciplinary design problems. In this paper, both methods are applied to a set of test cases. The goal is to introduce the ECO methodology by comparing and contrasting it with ATC, a method familiar within the mechanical engineering design community. Comparison of ECO and ATC is not intended to establish the computational superiority of either method. Rather, these two methods are compared as a means of highlighting several promising approaches to the coordination of distributed design problems.

That's it - we did NOT want to leave. Which is one of the ways we gauge a hotel/resort.
The location of this special hotel is spectacular as you sit in one of the many hammocks looking up at the city of Montepulciano you feel completely removed from the world. It is a multi-acre site with very few rooms so you can get "away" from everything and everyone without leaving the property.
Romance, relaxation or (why were were there) a respite from long hiking days... all fit for this property.
Our room, was large, with a sitting area and the bathrooms were large with shelving to put your travel goods. (a nice change for Italy).
We ate breakfast every day and it was typical european (only with the addition of eggs). The special part was their gluten free choices (we warned them in advance).
We also arranged a special diner on the property for us and our friends and the BBQ was out of this world (I think I am still full this many weeks past :) )
Great spot, will be returning for longer stay.

By far the nicest people are at the front desk. The Hotel was undergoing renovations and had tarps and plastic everywhere. The rooms were comfortable and the location was very nice in the middle of a large shopping center with a movie theater next door. There was a large lake in front with a picnic area. Lots of geese and rabbits. We were traveling with our puppy so we got a pet room. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms clean. The carpeting in our room was really dirty, but when I sent my review to company the manager responded immediatly and said they had put off cleaning the carpets because of the remodeling.
They had a wonderful breakfast area that was well stocked and very clean.

I just finished the book and I found it most delightful. It contains a very brilliantly-constructed conundrum of the "whodunnit" variety. Julia Larwood, one of a group of young barristers who are friends with Prof. Tamar, goes to Venice on holiday, only to wind up in bed with the corpse of the young man she's fancied throughout the trip and finally managed to engage in a one-afternoon stand. (Of course, when she first got into bed with the young man, he WASN'T a corpse, which makes his subsequent dispatch all the more distressing ...) Naturally, members of the Venice police force don't take kindly to this set of events, particularly when Julia's personally-inscribed copy of that year's Tax Finance Act is found lying next to the stiffening body ...
From London, then, Prof. Tamar and Julia's other friends at 62 New Square (Selena, Cantrip and Ragwort - all intriguing personalities in themselves) attempt to help solve the mystery and spring Julia out of jail. What follows is an erudite, often hilarious, web of intrigue, frustrated passion and outright chicanery told in VERY tongue-in-cheek style by Prof.Read more ›
As someone who conducts research for a living, I was particularly amused by the following, as Hilary (our narrator of indeterminate gender) makes his/her way to work:
"On my first day in London I made an early start. Reaching the Public Record Office not much after ten, I soon secured the papers needed for my research and settled in my place. I became, as is the way of the scholar, so deeply absorbed as to lose all consciousness of my surroundings or of the passage of time. When at last I came to myself, it was almost eleven and I was quite exhausted: I knew that I could not prudently continue without refreshment."
This quotation give the flavor of the whole book, really the entire series. If you turn to mysteries for their psychological characterizations or examination of the dark side of life, this book will not do it for you, but if you love intelligent satire, Caudwell can't be beat.
This is a fun book but there are some references which will be lost on Amercan readers unfamiliar with british college rivalries and customs. The humor is dry, the sardonic commentary reminiscent of Austen, Wodehouse and Coward. The plot is unusual, but the writing is terrific. What other book can make the Tax Finance Act amusing?
This is drollery and high humour in sombre throwaway lines. Some things I had to read a couple of times to understand - and in the midst of it all is a very nice and complicated murder mystery. Made more complicated of course because our protagonist, Hilary, insists on solving it (at a distance) and in the most complex way possible. A great deal of fun all up as it happens.
The mystery to solve is just who murdered the beautiful Adonis (or Praxiteles as Julia also refers to him) for whom she had a brief but exciting fling on a Artists tour of Venice. Julia is the prime suspect - she was the last to see him alive - and a copy of her tax code is lying by his bed. They share an interest in the subject she being a barrister specialising in tax and he being one of the revenue.
Much of this is done in the epistolary form -ok I mean by letter but as the rest of the novel ascends into the polysyllabic at the slightest opportunity then I figure so can I. But it does it in a very good natured way and with immense humour bubbling underneath. All because Julia is completely hair-brained - she is very intelligent but cannot find her way around anything in real life so she has gone where she can least harm to any one - advising on tax positions. Hilary, our narrator is lovely, warm and slightly pompous with it. And the other characters are vaguely ditsy in their own ways too. It is a joy to read.
If you like Janet Evanovich, Jilly Cooper, Nancy Mitford, or E F Benson I feel sure this would be a great author to get into. The pity is that there are only 4 novels.

Check out the interview with LLTI's CEO, Neil Albert posted on the LLTI website "news".
At first blush it is an interesting and seemingly meaningful interview. Then when one compares his glowing accounts of activities to the just released "Income Statement" (if one chooses to call it that), something simply doesn't ring true. To wit: Q2 2013 revenue = ZERO; Q1 2013 revenue = $3K; Q4 2012 revenue = Zero; Q3 2012 revenue = $3K.
Here are the annual numbers: 2012 = $17K; 2011 = $9K; 2010 = $54K.
So, are our best days behind us?? This is amazing to me that so many quality people could be engaged in a company cresting at inertia. I'd love to attend a shareholders meeting. I'm not far from Bala Cynwyd if they held it around there. Some clarity and the big "when are contracts and revenues expected?" needs to be answered. This is taking way too long for a bunch of partnering companies that have been around for quite some time. This isn't a start-up. Rather it's supposed to be a symbiotic relationship intended to help all parties. If you can't read between the lines, I'm a frustrated long.
Re: 10Q filing: What was staggering to me was the quarterly the payroll expenses ($8.2 mil). Really?
I understand most of it related to the warrants for the executive management and the 8 new employees, but it seems a bit excessive, especially so early in the game.
Also, I see they have an affiliation with Gaming Partners International, a publicly traded company (symbol GPIC). Hopefully some good will come of this.
Lastly, the revenue LLTI expects to receive will be from licensing and royalty of their technologies. Their partnering with ABnote and Gaming Partners is still in the very early stages of a test run. I would not expect a firm commitment and/or contract from either of these companies before year-end.
I'm still very positive on LLTI.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
It appears that my thoughts of months ago has begun to make sense to at least one person on this board. We seem to have several more months to go before a possibility of evidence that this company can make revenues let alone profits. Window dressing bod's mean nothing in the long & short of things. AND remember we still have to face a reverse stock split some time in the future.

Ice cream has been geared exclusively toward the kiddies for way too long. That's why we love MORELLI'S, where all age groups and palates are taken into consideration. For the kids, there's Dirt and Worms, a messy concoction involving Oreos and gummy worms. For the pleasure-seeking adults, there's dulce-de-leche, a caramel ice cream that's incredibly decadent and gooey. And for the adventurous palate, there are flavors such as coconut and jalapeño. The friendly owners are always willing to take suggestions, and are constantly playing with ideas, so boredom is never an issue.

Mom to:
Three big girls (10) + (almost 9!);
One little boy (6) and a full on toddler (8/12) born with TAPVR (repaired at 6 days old).
What? That's it? Nothing about the nature of Man and Woman or fatal sibling rivalry or how Adam and Chava got themselves tossed out of Gan Eden?
Okay-- what all happens in this parsha?
I went looking for my Tanach... and realized that I don't have a single copy on this floor of the house. I don't know if it even moved with me the last time, it may still be at my mom's. :
Rynna - The Parsha is easily accessible on-line. I am sure other sites have it also, but I use Chabad.org
Big surprise there

my father's hebrew name is Avram. His parents did not know (I guess) that it should be Avraham. It is a big deal because on my ketubbah it is written as Avraham, even though that's not his name! I find it interesting that you cannot use the name Avram. Anyone know why?
I totally remember this discussion every school year in elementary. A righteous man in his time... There are all sorts of midrashim (stories, right?) surrounding Noach. Do I see it as a condemnation? Yes and no. To use an analogy which currently has relevance to my daily life, perhaps Noach was a highly gifted child in a small, back-of-beyond school district. Yeah, he was a big fish in a small pond. And yeah, in a bigger pond there may well have been bigger fish... but he still would have been something special, and perhaps given a more optimal environment something great. I think that maybe there's no way to know the true extent of his potential because he was never given the opportunity to be tested out of level.
So here's a question: Assuming that Noach would have been more of a tzaddik had he been around better folks, what does that say about his sons? Was Ham doomed to be a punk, or could he have potentially been a decent human being?
