BERNE Soccer's governing body FIFA has written to the Nigerian Football Association over reports that lesbians had been banned from playing football in the West African nation.
A FIFA spokesman confirmed the letter but emphasised it was a preliminary inquiry.
Nigerian media reports have widely quoted Dilichukwu Onyedinma, head of the country's women's football league, as saying lesbian players would not be allowed to compete.
"Any player that we find is associated with it will be disqualified," Onyedinma was quoted as saying.
"We will call the club chairmen to control their players, and such players will not be able to play for the national team," she added.
Gay rights campaigners including the Federation of Gay Games, the European Gay and Lesbian Sport Federation (www.eglsf.info), Football v Homophobia and AllOut (www.allout.org) said they had written to FIFA president Sepp Blatter about the alleged ban.
"The organisations sending this letter believe that FIFA must now take firm," said the campaigners in a statement.

Residential Project
Our dream for many years has been to build a residential unit to work in conjunction with the day centre. People would live there for up to 2 years whilst attending classes at the day centre Monday to Friday. This would allow them to increase their employable and social skills. Plans have been approved and the fundraising appeal launched in March 2013. We are now £1.4million closer to our £1.8million target. Click here for the full story...

Pro-life movement making a comeback
"Resorting to name-calling is counter productive," said Spaulding Balch with National Right to Life. "If I start yelling at them, I've failed before I even started.
"My whole framework is to try to understand what their concerns are and to express my response in such a way that they can understand what I'm understanding. Unless we're listening to each other, we're never going to move this issue forward."
No one knows exactly what "forward" looks like, and neither side will ever completely embrace the other, but there have been positive steps in that direction.
In 2008, the Democratic Party amended their platform to reflect the need to reduce abortions, not simply guarantee the right to one. (see box)
And in May 2009, President Barack Obama stood before the graduating class of one of the nation's most prestigious Catholic universities and called for "open hearts, open minds, fair-minded words," when discussing abortion.
"Maybe we won't agree on abortions but we can still agree that this heart-wrenching decision for any woman is not made casually," he told the students at Notre Dame. "So let us work together to reduce the number of women seeking abortions. Let's reduce unintended pregnancies. Let's make adoption more available. Let's provide care and support for women who do carry their children to term."
Echoing the call from his speech, scholars and advocates on both sides gathered at Princeton in October for "A Conference on Life & Choice in the Abortion Debate," which Jacksteit attended and called "astonishing."
"Because it was something that would have never happened in the past," she said.
Jean Reith Schroedel, dean of the School of Politics and Economics at Claremont Graduate University in Claremont, Calif. has encouraged such discussions for years, especially since her book, "Is the Fetus a Person? A Comparison of Policies Across 50 States" came out in 2000.
"I argued that we needed to work on finding the common ground," she said. "When we talk about fetal life, let's not talk simply about abortion. Let's talk about the total ramifications."
She mentions reducing prenatal drug exposure and drug use by male partners as well as preventing battering of pregnant women and domestic violence.
"(Because) if we believe that women shouldn't be allowed to have abortions under X number of circumstances, then we as a society have a responsibly to assist her and that child."
That responsibility is what motivates Oberhelman to go to work each day. She knows what it's like to feel terrified, alone and out of options. Her job is to provide love and support to these women, who are often just children themselves.
And while she doesn't believe abortion is the right choice, she understands why some women chose it.
For her, this isn't about labels, politics or rhetoric. This is about helping people.
"If I had talked to a woman, and tried to … help her see that there are options for her, and if she said, 'You don't understand, I have no choice,' and she went ahead and went in (the abortion clinic), when she came out, I would be there for her," Oberhelman said.
"I would want to take her home and take care of her and love her, because I believe that's what God would do."

A well done landscaping project can improve the look of your home, whether you intend to sell or just enjoy it yourself. Whether you are a do-it-yourself kind of person or you want to hire a professional, this article will give you some great information to help you to get started on the project.
Try sketching out your ideas on paper prior to starting any landscaping project. By sketching out the details first, you can have a much clearer idea of what you are aiming for and what project items you will need. It is a lot easier to fix your sketch than it would be to adjust the yard.
If you are a beginner to landscaping, examine the older trees on your property to ensure they are safe and are not falling down. In order to protect your home or other items on your property, you may want to hire a professional tree limber that can ensure the safety of the property. Continue reading

Is there an update to the Angular Twitter widget, or a good alternative? Once this one stopped updating I tried to use others, but none will show the thumbnail as well. Any help is appreciated.

P.S. You have an old version of Angular, last one is 1.7.
Thanks! How can I update the version of Angular?
Check this article for a reference:
It's for Enfold but it's the same procedure.

PM Scenario for Bulgaria's Stanishev 'Not Ruled Out'
A development in which Bulgarian socialists' leader Sergey Stanishev assumes the office of Prime Minister should not be ruled out, a BSP Executive Bureau member said.
Borislav Gutsanov told private channel TV7 on Monday that decisions are yet to be taken by the leadership of Bulgarian Socialist Party (BSP) on Saturday, when the socialists are due to hold a plenary session in the capital Sofia.
He pointed cabinet reshuffle as "necessary" and stressed the need for a clear declaration of the BSP's dominant role in the government.
Socialists formed a coalition with the Movement for Rights and Freedoms (DPS) after early elections last may, two months ahead of schedule.
No official coalition agreement was sealed, and the BSP argues it is leading the coalition, but according to its own Executive Bureau members' words, many among its traditional voters do not see their presence in cabinet as strong enough.
On Tuesday the BSP's Bureau is also to conduct an analysis on the situation within the party after the bad defeat it suffered at the European elections on May 25.
Many of the prominent socialist figures have called for leadership changes. Borislav Gutsanov, who will attend the meeting, however ruled out Stanishev's resignation as an option.
Gutsanov's comments on a potential "PM scenario" for Stanishev come a day after claims emerged in Bulgarian media that Stanishev might have had his mind set to the office and his decision depended on election results.

Rape is as rape does, but what about the brother who did it?
Yes, he did this to me.
Yes, it was wrong
Yes, it was abuse, so
Yes, he abused me.
Yes, he demanded sexual intercourse, so
Yes, he raped me, actually several times
So Yes, he is a rapist.
I hit the last rung hard and it almost made me tumble down again. I have never come so far along. The first thing that came to mind was: he is not a rapist, he is my brother! Then an other voice within me spoke up hesitantly: "Well think again, he might be both." At that time several things struck me.
Calling my brother a rapist was a first. Why am I so scared of this, since it is the logical conclusion that follows from what he did to me? If you were raped, there was a rapist. Why is calling him out much more difficult than accepting the deed itself, which is difficult enough? I think it is due to the fact that being a rapist has the same gravity as being a murderer, which is different from being a thief, a burglar, mugger, a drugs dealer or a sinner for that matter. The first mentioned define you by what you once did, where as the latter define you much more by what you have been doing. The first can never be undone, in the way the latter can. If you murdered someone, you are a murderer for life and the same goes for the rapist. Even if you don't murder anymore, show remorse and seek redemption, you can't say you are no murderer anymore. This is different for the thief, the drugs dealer and the sinner. They are more defined as a career: once I was a thief, but I don't steal anymore, I paid for my crimes, so I am a thief no more. Murder and rape cling to you for life.
So my brother is a rapist, because 17 years ago he raped me. now what? I don't like him any more or less because of it. I resent him for what he did, but I can't hate him at the same time. I love the brother, not the rapist. He has a dual identity of which one belongs to the past.. does it? He does not rape anymore, we don't speak of it but he has shown remorse. Still I was raped, he did it and for me it is still there in every day life, for instance while getting groceries. Although the weight of the matter lessened somewhat, it will probably never go away. Even so I don't want him to suffer for it. I want him to have remorse and learn from it and better his life and I really think he did and does, so shouldn't he be rapist-off than? Can he even be rapist-off, in the same sense that I probably can never be rape-victim-off? Actually I came to notice I would like for him the same as what I would like for myself: not to forget, not to be bothered with the question whether to forgive, but just to learn, to grow and to move on.
Even where we stand now, I feel close and distant to him at the same time: being around him too long is like being torn apart, but the same goes for living with this evil secret towards the rest of the family. Being close to family tears me apart within and from them as well. And no, I can't speak up about it. If the rapist is gone, I won't hurt the remorseful brother I love. I will protect him. That is why I will not call him a rapist I guess. With my father in pain and dying slowly from cancer, my parents suffer enough. They already worry about me overmuch. Damn those mother instincts; she just feels that I am not candid. I will not pull my sister in the same rupture I go through either. She was never part of this and never will be. For now the only sound thing I can say is that past, present or future, in-family rape is an evil, evil thing.
Comments, insights, opinions, discussions and the like are very much appreciated.

GERMANY: Sugar giants fined for price-fixing
Violations dated back to 1990s, watchdog said
German sugar refiners Nordzucker, Pfeifer & Langen and Suedzucker have been fined a combined EUR280m for anti-competitive practices, including price fixing.
Germany's competition authority, the Bundeskartellamt, said the violations started in the mid-1990s and continued up until the start of its investigation in 2009.
The watchdog said the practices focused on sales, quotas and prices. It said the infringements involved the sale of sugar for the processing industry and sugar for the end consumer.
Suedzucker was issued with a fine worth EUR195.5m. Nordzucker said it had accepted a "seven-figure fine".
Andreas Mundt, president of the Bundeskartellamt, said the three companies formed a "territorial cartel" to limit their sales to their local regions in Germany, away from their rivals.
"The aim of the agreements between Nordzucker, Pfeifer & Langen and Südzucker was to achieve the highest possible prices for their sugar," Mundt said.
"This type of co-ordination was not permitted under the European sugar market regulation. In spite of the quota system and minimum price guarantees, competition for sales areas, customers and customer prices is still possible in the sugar market and is also necessary to maintain functioning residual competition in order to protect customers against even greater distortion of competition in this sector."
He added: "The fined companies have used the European quota system, the minimum price guarantee and the resulting high market transparency for coordination purposes and have further limited the residual competition. The case is an expressive example of how extensive market regulation can help to restrict competition to the detriment of customers."
The Bundeskartellamt said industrial customers had told it the agreement between the three companies had led "to substantial price increases and to bottlenecks in the supply of sugar".
Nordzucker said it had "scrutinised all of its businesses processes" and added: "These processes do not just meet legal requirements, but are also fully in line with the company's compliance standards. Staff training and twice-yearly internal audits play a key role here. Nordzucker does not tolerate any anti-competitive practices whatsoever throughout the group and is a proponent of fair competition at both a domestic and an international level."

My creation zone, is an escape from life and its many issues; the bills, the drama, the seeming destruction of humanity, the he said, she said, they said, you're wrong, you're right, you're dumb. I get to escape from all the negativity that seems to ooze from social media and the atmospheres around us. So I create my own heaven, my own escape, my little piece of emptiness, to be totally in the now. You can say when I am in the zone as I call it, meditating, breathing with the planet. When I find my place, I will often not even remember consciously painting. It's like something or someone else is driving me to paint and create. Sometimes I'll look at my work and just tilt my head. I know I painted it, but it's like I didn't.

When I crossed the finish line in La Bresse I was relieved and very exhausted as I looked up on the screen on the finish line arch I saw a "15" in front of my name. I was feeling spend, beaten up, weak, no way in harmony with my bike and mentally a bit broken. Had you asked me one week earlier, this was no way near the result I expected. Coming into La Bresse with already two world cup wins this season.

TransitionFebruary 13th, 2016
Tenerife was amazing. Mostly because my everyday life was all about training and resting. Now I'm back in Denmark for a very short visit, with very restricted time on my bike and very much time doing other things in life, such as moving.
Base building on TenerifeJanuary 30th, 2016
Nothing beats those first training rides in the sun. Coming straight from a dark, cold and wet cage, aka. Danish Winter, it feels extraordinarily liberating and transforming.

Early morning road tripping through the mist
A few weeks in Germany flew by. We got home last night just before midnight, unpacked the car, went to bed and slept for more than nine straight hours. I was quite tired. Even though sitting in a car an entire day isn't physically hard, it just still drains your energy. I needed a proper sleep after the travel, so I set no alarm clock and told Thomas to not wake me this morning, in case he would wake up before me and see, that I looked like somebody who still needed her beauty sleep. He always laughs when I give him instructions like that. Wise man – he did not wake me up though (He probably knows, that in the end it's beneficial for him too. I'm just so much more manageable to be around, when not sleep deprived).
The sweat lifeJanuary 9th, 2016
We made it to the southern part of Germany near Bodensee. Not the most traditional place for going training this time of year, since you can easily find places with better weather and warmer temperatures. Our mission next to new training environment (and hopefully a couple of days skiing) is to search for a more permanent residence abroad upon my return to Europe after the Cape Epic in March (Btw. Race calendar is up to date, find it above).

Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Reggie Golden smacked a solo HR and Matt Loosen threw four innings of one-run ball as the EXST Cubs and EXST Rockies played to a 4-4 tie on Red Mountain Field, and Rockies RHP Aaron Cook (60 day DL - broken ring finger on pitching hand) threw 2.2 IP (35 pitches) of one-hit shutout ball with no walks and three strikeouts, leading the other squad of EXST Rockies to a 7-2 victory over the other squad of EXST Cubs on Dust Storm Field, in a Cactus League Extended Spring Training doubleheader played simultaneously on adjacent fields this morning at Salt River Fields at the Talking Stick Resort east of Scottsdale.
Both games were pre-scheduled as seven-inning affairs, but the game on Red Mountain Field was extended an extra half-inning to allow all of the Rockies pitchers who were due to throw today to get their scheduled work.
Augie Ojeda saw his first game action since suffering a back injury in Spring Training, getting an AB in each of the first five innings of the game played on Red Mountain Field, and going 0-5 (two ground outs, two fly outs, and a called third strike).
Once Augie has completed his rehab assignment at Extended Spring Training, he will likely assume the starting SS job at Iowa, and be available in case anything happens to Starlin Castro or Darwin Barney.
Here are today's abridged box scores (Cubs players only):
1. Vismeldy Bieneme, 2B: 2-2 (1B+E-1, BB, 1B, RBI)
2. Yaniel Cabezas, C-DH: 2-3 (K, 1B, 1B)
3. Marco Hernandez, SS: 0-3 (F-7, F-7, F-8)
4. Wilson Contreras, 1B: 0-3 (1-3, K, K)
5. Chad Noble, DH-C: 0-3 (F-9, P-4, K)
6. Jesus Morelli, RF: 0-3 (K, K, 5-3)
7. Dong-Yub Kim, DH #2: 0-3 (5-3, K, F-8)
8. Oliver Zapata, CF: 1-2 (4-3, 1B, R, SB)
9. Blair Springfield, LF: 0-2 (K, K)
10. Gregori Gonzalez, 3B: 1-2 (4-3, 3B, R, RBI)
1. Yao-Lin Wang: 2.2 IP, 4 H, 3 R (3 ER), 3 BB, 3 K, 1 WP, 1 GIDP, 61 pitches (36 strikes), 3/2 GO/FO
2. Jin-Young Kim: 3.1 IP, 5 H, 3 R (3 ER), 1 BB, 4 K, 45 pitches (33 strikes), 5/1 GO/FO
3. Luis Villalba: 1.0 IP, 2 H, 1 R (1 ER), 0 BB, 0 K, 1 HR, 21 pitches (13 strikes), 0/3 GO/FO
SS Marco Hernandez - E6 (throwing error allowed batter to reach base safely)
Chad Noble: 0-1 CS
NOTE: Augie Ojeda was a DH and had five AB (one in each of the first five innings), batting third in the top of the 1st inning, second in the top of the 2nd inning, and first in the top of the 3rd, 4th, and 5th innings.
X. Augie Ojeda, DH #1: 0-5 (6-3, F-9, K, F-7, 4-3)
1. Kyung-Min Na, CF: 1-3 (F-8, 1-3, 1B, RBI, SB)
2. Pin-Chieh Chen, 2B: 1-3 (1B, P-6, F-9, R, SB)
3. Reggie Golden, RF: 1-3 (HR, F-8, K, R, RBI)
4. Dustin Harrington, 3B: 2-3 (2B, 2B, 5-3)
5. Wes Darvill, SS: 0-2 (F-8, BB, 5-3)
6. Johan DeJesus, C: 0-3 (F-7, 6-4 FC, F-8)
7. Dustin Geiger, 1B: 0-2 (5-3, BB, F-7, R)
8. Xavier Batista, LF: 1-3 (4-3, 2B, 5-3, R, RBI)
9. Brian Inoa, DH #2: 1-3 (F-9, 1B, K, RBI, SB)
1. Matt Loosen: 4.0 IP, 4 H, 1 R (1 ER), 0 BB, 4 K, 1 HR, 57 pitches (36 strikes), 4/4 GO/FO
2. Santo Rodriguez: 2.0 IP, 4 H, 1 R (1 ER), 0 BB, 0 K, 1 GIDP, 25 pitches (15 strikes), 3/1 GO/FO
3. Colin Richardson: 1.0 IP, 2 H, 2 R (2 ER), 0 BB, 0 K, 1 HBP, 17 pitches (12 strikes), 1/2 GO/FO
Johan DeJesus: 2-2 CS
WEATHER: Mostly sunny and VERY breezy with temperatures in the 70's
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Phil - thanks again for these great posts...it gives us in Boise a great opportunity to see what may be coming this way in a month. Will you be posting cumulative stats for Extended this year - it was interesting to see how they correlated with their numbers in Boise last summer.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
To go along with the Boise part of that, any predictions as to who will be on Boise's roster? Also, I know Brandon May is in injury rehab, but has there been a Ryan Cuneo sighting?
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Any Wells or Cashner sightings???
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
on that note, Muskat says they threw batting practice on Monday and Wells will throw in a game on Thursday.

Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Reaching a large audience and having a large audience are two different things. I'm sure Fox or NBC has some C list celebrities nobody gives a crap about on who will dance/sing/cook/eat raw fish and get fired and draw more viewers.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
yeah, it was more for a TCR people notification for those looking the game, but i left it vague as hell.
it's also one of the 2 HD night MLB EI (pay subscription) featured games, too.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Wow. Night crowds are usually a little late getting into the park, but there's a ton of empty seats right now. I figured for sure this series would be close to a sellout because of the Cards fans coming up (then again, probably a lot less can come up for a weeknight series).
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Soto hurt something and is being PH for by Koyie in the 1st, who weakly pops out on the first pitch with the bases loaded. Ugh.
UPDATE: Soto has a left groin strain. Paging Max Ramirez...
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Welington Castillo time probably, was hitting better than Ramirez anyway and that's not saying much.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
If you want a catcher who is hitting, Clevenger's your man. .953 OPS, etc.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
He would slide right into Soto's 8th spot
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
well yes, if the Cubs want a single between first and second, Clevenger is the guy.
He's on the Chirinos road to dominating a league in his third season there (although he has about a full season of at-bats there).
if Soto goes on the DL, I'm sure it would be be Castillo as he's already on the 40-man although they do have an open spot.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Muskat says Castillo pulled from Iowa Cubs game in 8th inning fwiw.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Az Phil: Is Steve Clevenger just a non-prospect? Even as a back-up C-3B-1B? I
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Assuming Soto does go on the DL, Castillo gets to come up and sit on the bench for two weeks while our proven veteran catcher keeps us in contention. LOL.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
If Castillo does come up it will be interesting to watch what pitchers he does start for.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Looks like over that full season Clevenger's hit pretty well at AA ball....pretty pedestrian in his 1 season at AAA. I'd take any kind of hitting out of the catcher position while Soto is gone..
Koyie Hill.....ugh.. I hope Castillo get to play some at least...
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
If you need to call up a catcher to replace Soto, minor league hitting statistics should be a very, very small consideration. I would ask these questions:
1. Is he on the 40-man roster?
2. Does the guy have good plate discipline? (i.e.- not hacktastic)
3. Does he have a strong, accurate arm?
If he more or less meets most of this criteria, then he's your guy.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Castillo is on the 40 man, and has a strong arm...not sure on accuracy...
Hacktastic? well...did I mention the he's on the 40 man roster? I still would like to see a couple weeks of Castillo over the Koyie Hill Experience....which I liked the first time as the Tim Blackwell Experience....
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
The Cubs organization loves their free swingers.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
.....for the last 4 decades apparently....
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
"well yes, if the Cubs want a single between first and second, Clevenger is the guy."
Clevenger has a .547 slugging percentage in 97 PAs this season. Only Soriano beats that among Cub starters, by 3 percentage points.
Not sure what your point is, anyway, about a guy who hits singles. Doesn't a single drive in the runs that the Cubs keep stranding on second and third? Clevenger has 17 RBI, more than any Cub except Soriano, in fewer PAs than any Cub regular.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
my point is he is still in AA for his fourth straight year and his slugging percentage right now is as accurate as Darwin Barney's.
Cubs haven't had many problems hitting singles so far, it's the XBH's that have been the problem.
Anyway Castillo is coming up like expected.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
That's absolutely true Rob! No question.
I'd still rather have singles, than no hits at all from the catcher.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
well of course, but there's no reason to believe he'd be a better option than Castillo right now.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
It doesn't really matter since Quade will have Koyie Hill start every game Geo misses.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
As of 2PM Chicago time, Geo is getting an MRI today and hasn't been put on the DL yet.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
If they need a catcher, they can option Colvin or Dewitt as well
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
as much as i hate to say it...colvin could probably use some regular ABs and he looks so behind right now that the majors probably isn't the place to do it.
even his OF defense seems stiff. at 1st, it didn't help j.baker stole his backup role there with his hot bat.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Two more doubles this afternoon by Clevenger. My point is just that he's a big part of the hitting machine at Tennessee this year. Again today, they're down 4-1 in the sixth, no problem--two in the sixth, four in the seventh, now it's 7-5 in the ninth. Spencer hit his 6th, Flaherty his 8th.
They do this quite often. They get the steamroller going in the late innings. Can you imagine a Cub team where they're down three or four in the sixth, and you don't feel like the game is over?
Too bad there's no pitching machine at Tenn. Rusin with another underwhelming performance today. At least he's better than Raley.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
My point is he's finally doing it in AA on his third or fourth attempt.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
2008 AA 104 PA's.247/.316/.360 1 HR, 15 RBI
2009 AA 89 PA's .364/.443/.532,1 HR, 10 RBI(promoted)
2010 AA 294 PA's .317/.367/.461, 5HR, 47 RBI
We all get it that Castillo is coming up, and is ahead of the food chain, and rightfully so. However, it looks like Clevenger has raked in AA in 2009-2011
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
babip over those years
.269, .370, .340, .370
And from what I briefly saw, he pulls just about everything which isn't going to be tough to figure out in the majors.
when your ceiling is fringe back-up, nothing to get excited about
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Eh...not for Castillo either. Let's just hope for a quick return from Soto.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Smokies lost that game, by the way. Blake Parker couldn't go two innings without giving up 7 runs. After the 2-run HR that tied it in the 9th, Harper left Parker in for four more runs. Harper's job is just not to wreck any young pitchers with all the high-scoring games they play.
The pitching problems have been worsened lately with McNutt missing starts due to blisters and closer Cales going on the DL.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Not sure what your point is, anyway, about a guy who hits singles. Doesn't a single drive in the runs that the Cubs keep stranding on second and third?
This is funny... considering that you are the one who has bashed Fukudome for hitting singles.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
I don't think your starting right fielder should be given too much credit when he's slugging .395. (Clevenger is slugging .567 at the moment but that will almost certainly come down.)
The context of my remarks was people wanting a backup catcher who hit better than Hill, not Fukudome. I do think Clevenger is a better hitter than either of them.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
In the minors Clevenger has had a .784 OPS, Fukudome has had a .783 OPS in the majors. Hill has had a .757 minor league OPS which has converted into .585 in the majors. There's certainly a lot of elements that come into play, but based on what we've seen, there's about 0% chance that Clevenger would match Fukudome's production, and when facing major league pitching he'd be a lot closer to Hill as a hitter than you'd apparently think.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
You're comparing a starting right fielder with a guy who projects as a backup catcher (for two reasons: not enough pop and not a particularly good throwing arm).
Clevenger is a career .308 hitter so far. I just have no reason to believe that he's suddenly going to drop to Fukudome's .259 in the majors, let alone to Hill's .214.
Sometimes there's a big conversion factor, sometimes not. Career minor leagues, Soto was .280/.360/.429/.789. Career majors, he's .265/.357/.464/.821.
Clevenger's OPS was .829 last year and it's much higher this year. He's getting stronger, for one thing. He's a converted shortstop, so you have to give him a few years to beef up.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Hill in minors: .279/.346/.411
Clevenger: .308/.368/.416
Meh....Hill went 2for 4 last night...so that will buy him 2 months...
Clevenger is a backup catcher, and should probably not be compared with the RF.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
he also swung at first pitch after a four pitch walk.
He'll make a great coach.

Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
I might have missed past commentary on this, but was wondering on your general take of the XST crop this year. Outside of some intriguing, but raw arms, and a couple intriguing positional players (Golden, still intrigued with Darvill), this seems like a fairly pedestrian crop at best. How does this compare to recent history down there (I don't recall last year's XST crop as that exciting either)? Would the top 5 prospect talents down there be something along the lines of Liria, Reed, Wells, Golden, and maybe JY Kim?
Also, two side questions - what's your take on Cabezas in general, but specifically, the bat? Also, do you have any opinions on the explosion in performance that Bour and Ridling are having this year? I'm just not sure what to make of it, particularly Bour's power (considering past reports). Heck, I thought I liked Cuneo more out of college than Bour.

Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Meanwhile, Sam Zell laughs and laughs.
"I put some lipstick on that pig, then sold it to some sucker at the absolute peak of the market! Bwahahaha!"
Ah, Mr. Ricketts? Your banker is on line one. He wants to know why you are not returning his call.
Re: Ricketts' banker
Since you mention it, 4 bankers were talked about when the deal was made: $425 million from Joe Ricketts and $450 million from JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup and Bank of America.
Tom convinced his dad to invest by telling him the fans would show up even if he put a shitty team out on the field (uh oh). And the big banks came onboard (albeit with short term financing) when the Ricketts subordinated their debt.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Well Zell had to knock off $200M+ cause he waited too long and kept trying to get more bidders. A large part of the financing of the deal was per Zell's tax dodging request.
-edit- $150M+, I overestimated
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Youtube, Crains Chicago, Investment News...
Lemme summarize some things Joe said about the deal.
Joe didn't know Tom was a Cubs fan. Joe wasn't a fan at all. Doesn't watch sports.
Tom didn't finish his degree on time because he was hanging out in Wrigleyville. The family came to graduation and Tom had to tell them he wasn't getting his sheepskin.
When the Trib let it be known that the Cubs were for sale, Tom told his dad they should buy the team. His sale pitch was, "Dad they sell every ticket to every game, win or lose."
Tom's bond business wasn't profitable until recently, but Joe insisted he hand it off to another CEO and spend 100% of his time running the Cubs 24/7. Joe wasn't interested in doing it himself. So Tom got his "dream job."
Joe thinks (or used to) that Tom is doing a great job selling himself to the fans. And that "the plan" is to get to the playoffs every year because, according to Tom, the Cubs have the players they need and a great organization.
Joe has to be having second thoughts right now...
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
There's little to nothing in that about financing.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Joe Ricketts sounds like a fucking idiot. Maybe he should have done some research on Wrigley attendance trends before he sold $400M in stock to buy this trainwreck. Way to scam your dad, Tom. I can't say I wouldn't have done the same though!
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
wait, you folks don't really believe they're going to lose money on the Cubs, do you?
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Nor do I think they used short-term financing. If they were given short-term financing they must have been able to show the the Cubs are making a shit-fuck-ton of money... if the Cubs were making that much money, a million of the lower price seats going unsold isn't going to kill them. Once Pujols/Fielder comes on board in November the ticket sales will be fixed, at least for a year.

Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
No, it's not.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
The grass was probably still wet... I'd cut him a little slack on that one. He was in good position had he been standing up.
Still funny, though.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Where's the funny video of the other guys in left field who had to run on wet grass lately?
Anyway, I don't think he had to move an inch to catch the ball, so not sure why his wheels were spinning in the first place.
He made another goofy play last night. (Because it wasn't nearly as goofy, he was actually charged with an error.) This one was more his usual hand-to-eye coordination problem.
They catch balls better in bush leagues. He's like a little leaguer out there.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
I'm not going to defend Soriano's defense. Everyone knows he's terrible.
I'm just trying to be a bit understanding in this instance.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
video was from Tuesday night, wasn't it? Think the rain was Wednesday.
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
wasn't slippery, he 's just bad
Re: Aaron Cooks Cubs Goose
Oh... in that case no slack required.

Marlins with a quick 4 spot vs Jaime Garcia. Osuna HR the highlight.
Brian Matusz, supposedly he has attachments. Hope it's not like an email with a virus attached.
One thing to remember about Chapman -- he can be magic, but his ERA is higher than Rondon's this year. 100+ mph is fun, but I'd love to see a few more sliders. I think he enjoys the crowd reaction from 103 mph.
"Diamondbacks designated RHP Josh Collmenter for assignment."
aww...he was my 2nd favorite crapballer. his control issues are rather severe at the moment.
Wow -- Chapman gives up a hit and everything completely caves in. I think the Cubs went into collective shock.
Stolen base with the pitcher holding the ball, WP that should have been caught or blocked, then Russell with a 2-out error on a routine play. Cubs handed them 2 runs. Throw in a Fowler bobble and it was a mess.
Hopefully, that is all out of their system now -- let's get a W tomorrow.
First time I've ever seen a base running slump -- he's made some poor decisions recently, but I thought it was a great idea to try to score there -- it's not like Heyward was going to get a 2-out hit against a LHP. Sliding feet-first into home is probably the safe (ugh) way to go, but it's hard to get the foot on the plate.
Yup. He got squeezed (twice) on the first walk, but, when you have one-run lead and the other team is trying to make an out -- take the out.
Wasn't fun!
Clearly the Cubs need to clear out the farm and trade for another closer
Where's Ed Lynch when you need him?
Those were more entertaining times.
I wonder if there's an actual cause to this because they were going up hacking at everything. Wonder if scoring a bunch of runs makes you feel like you.can swing at anything and hit it.
That second walk he gave Up was awful though with no pitches even close to being a strike. He was trying to pitch around bunt and that almost never works. That said Rondon should have been brought in after the first walk and should have been left in to finish the inning because he was looking like he had good stuff.
Remember when Bryant used to be able to run the bases with impunity?
And Miggy costs them another run
torres would easily be the system's #1 prospect. he's a middle IF'r that's showing he can stick there even as he's gaining bulk/muscle so far. that said, it's not like the distance between torres and jimenez is huge...it's torres's position value that would vault him in prospect status.
jimenez has the higher ceiling just isolating the bat aspect of his game.
it would suck to lose either, but torres is a very popular/valuable piece.

"The reason we're here, the reason we are like some gem hidden inside this shell of sand, being ground down, is so that we can become godlike.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) constitute a new pervasive and ubiquitous technology. They have been successfully used in various application areas and in future computing environments, WSNs will play an increasingly important role. However, programming sensor networks and applications to be deployed in them is extremely challenging. It has traditionally been an error-prone task since it requires programming individual nodes, using low-level programming issues and interfacing with the hardware and the network. This aspect is currently changing as different high-level programming abstractions and middleware solutions are coming into the arena. Nevertheless, many research challenges are still open. This paper presents a survey of the current state-of-the-art in the field, establishing a classification and highlighting some likely research challenges and future directions.

UCD often starts as an enlarged lymph node. Depending on the location of this enlarged node, some people will have no additional features of the condition, while others will develop symptoms when it pushes on nearby organs and/or tissues. The exact underlying cause of UCD is currently unknown. Treatment typically includes surgical removal of the affected lymph node.[1][2][3]Unicentric Castleman disease (UCD) is a rare condition that affects the

Vermont man fights extradition to NH in murder caseJuly 08,2013AP FILE PHOTO
In this July 3 photo, James Robarge sits in criminal court in Brattleboro during arraignment on motor vehicle charges for an incident in Bellows Falls. He appeared today in court to face a charge of second-degree murder.A Rockingham man is fighting extradition to New Hampshire where authorities today filed a charge against him of second-degree murder in the death of his estranged wife.
James Robarge, 43, appeared this afternoon in Brattleboro criminal court where his attorney stated that he would be fighting extradition to New Hampshire. Authorities in New Hampshire will now seek a governors warrant to force Robarges return to that state, a process that is expected to take about a month.
In the meantime, Robarge is being held at the Springfield prison.
The second-degree murder charge alleges that Robarge recklessly caused the death of 42-year-old Kelly Robarge on June 27 in Charlestown, N.H. by inflicting trauma to her body.
James Robarge has been held at the Springfield prison on unrelated motor vehicle charges stemming from his arrest last week in Bellows Falls near a medical center.
N.H. Fish and Game officers and New England K-9 Search and Rescue found the body of a woman Saturday in a wooded area in Unity, N.H. An autopsy Sunday confirmed the body was that of Kelly Robarge, and the cause of death was homicidal violence by undetermined causes.
On June 27, the day she disappeared, Kelly Robarge had filed for a divorce from Robarge. Shortly after she was reported missing, New Hampshire authorities had said they feared she had suffered serious injury or death.MORE IN This Just InSPRINGFIELD Springfield residents will be asked next month during Market Madness for their...
