Matt Kemp's huge team margin in WAR
Posted by Andy on October 12, 2011
Matt Kemp registered a WAR of 10.0 this season. Among his teammates, the next highest WAR for non-pitchers was 1.8 from Jamey Carroll. In fact, the sum of all other Dodger WAR (ignoring pitching) was 6.4, meaning Kemp outscored all the rest of his teammates combined.
His margin of 8.2 above the next highest player is massive. Here are the 200 most recent times that a single player (non-pitcher) achieved a seasonal WAR of 8.2.
Working chronologically backwards, here's what I found:
- In 2007, Albert Pujols had a WAR of 8.3 and his next-closest teammate was Scott Rolen at 2.3, a difference of 6 wins. All Cardinals besides Pujols totaled 9.1, so Pujols nearly outscored them.
- The last time before Kemp that a player had double-digit WAR (non-pitcher) was Barry Bonds in 2004. Indeed, he outscored runner-up Ray Durham by 9.1, besting Kemp's 2011 mark. But the Giants other than Bonds did manage 16.5 WAR, so Bonds didn't outscore them single-handedly.
- Adrian Beltre also had some big margins in 2004. He finished at 10.1 over teammate Milton Bradley at 3.6, a difference of 6.5 wins. The team minus Beltre totaled 14.2.
- In 2003 and 2001, Bonds came somewhat close to outscoring his teammates in WAR.
- In 2001, Sammy Sosa registered an 11.4 WAR, a whopping 9.2 wins above runner-up Ricky Gutierrez at 2.2. Sosa's teammates totaled 11.5, just a pinch more than Sosa himself.
- In 1997, Larry Walker had 9.0 WAR and was trailed by Andres Galarraga at 2.9 WAR, for a margin of 6.1. The Rockies minus Walker had 9.6.
- Got it finally: in 1997, Mike Piazza racked up 9.3 WAR. Next closest was Raul Mondesi at 5.8, but all the Dodgers except for Piazza had just 7.6.
This means that Kemp is the first player since Piazza in 1997 to outscore all of his teammates (non-pitchers) in WAR.
I wonder when the last time a non-Dodgers player did it? Feel free to keep looking at the list.
Thanks to reader Bip for emailing in about this.

WAR is an approximate stat and nobody cares about statistical anomalies and thresholds in a stat that's very definition will likely change in a week...
...and if it doesn't change in a week, it should. It's garbage.

Going through the rest of the Dodgers lineup, the funny thing is that almost all of them (maybe not Ethier) did as well or slightly better than could be expected. How could a big money team trot out a lineup that weak?
Maybe they thought they had the original Tony Gwynn & Ivan DeJesus.

Andy, did you just go through the list of WAR > 8.2? It seems likely someone on a crappy team could have outscored the rest of his teammates despite a WAR less than 8.2.
Andy Says:
October 12th, 2011 at 3:41 pm
JT, yeah, I was looking for the last person to outscore all of his teammates by at least 8.2 each, and all in total. As you can see above, I found a few examples of guys who outscored the second-place guy by at least 8.2 but not the whole team. I'm sure there are other guys to outscore their entire team but not the second-place guy by at least 8.2.
Andy Says:
October 12th, 2011 at 3:44 pm
For example, 2003 Tigers...Dmitri Young had 2.7 WAR and the rest of the team was -6.6. Heh. That also means that even Warren Morris (0.7 WAR) Shane Halter (0.4) and Cody Ross (0.4) outscored the rest of the team.

@2... I'm not a huge fan of WAR but this is a stats blog and a stats blog would deal alomst exclusively in "statistical anomalies and thresholds" and other random notes and happenings. If I wanted the obvious stuff I could very easily figure that out on my own just looking at the box score. These guys are here to show us random things that have happened recently, and even if it's a stat I don't like/agree with/understand completely it's still a stats blog. Go read the box scores if you don't want weird anomalies...

Although very unlikely, in principle a person could also have a WAR 8.2 better than the second best on his team even though his WAR was less than 8.2 -- if all others on the team had negative WAR.
But from the Batting Game Finder, all teams have had at least 6 position players with non-negative WAR, so in practice this hasn't happened -- yet.
Downpuppy Says:
October 12th, 2011 at 3:48 pm
It was from April. I didn't follow the twists, but the Dodgers are still in court and it will be at least another month before it's settled.
In any event, it explains why they weren't able to sign anybody that can hit the ball. A normally funded & sanely run Dodgers team with Kemp & Kershaw would have won 90 games sleepwalking.

Vladimir Guerrero beat his Expos teammates 4 years in a row and almost did it 5 times.
1998 Expos - Guerrero 7,1 WAR, the rest of the team 3.3
1999 Expos - Guerrero 3.5 WAR, the rest of the team -0.2
2000 Expos - Guerrero 5.3 WAR, the rest of the team -5.6
2001 Expos - Guerrero 4.8 WAR, the rest of the team -5.7
Then in 2002 Vladdy was at 6.5 and the rest of the team combined to beat him by a whopping 0.2 with 6.7

This post had me thinking about Ernie Banks on the 1950's Cubs.
In 1959, he had 10 WAR while the next closest Cub, Al Dark had a 2 WAR.
Banks in 1959 hit .306/.374/.596 with 45 HR & 143 RBI's. That was the second highest HR total and 3rd highest RBI total for a SS up until that point. No other Cub even had more than 14 HR that year.
In 1991, Cal Ripken had a WAR of 11 and the next closest Oriole (Mike Devereaux) had a WAR of 4.1.
Ripken put up a .323/.374/.566 with 34 HR & 114 RBi, 210 hits with 368 total bases. Not to mention Ripken played excellent defense at SS. The 368 total bases was the second highest total bases for a SS up until that point.

I am not sure if historically it is as hard to find such a gap with pitchers.
In 1972 Steve Carlton's WAR was 12.2 compared to the 1.8 of next highest Phillie pitcher Barry Lersch. The highest batter on that team the 1.2 of Don Money.
John Q Says:
October 12th, 2011 at 4:21 pm
T. Williams had a 11.3 WAR in his .406/.553/.735 season in 1941. The next closest Red Sox was Joe Cronin with a 4.9 WAR.
T. Williams had a 9.9 WAR in 1957 with a .388/.526/.731 season. The next closest Red Sox was Frank Malzone with a 3.2 WAR.

Thomas Court beat me to the '72 Carlton punch, but I can add that Carlton had an edge of 12.3 WAR over the rest of the team combined
-- Carlton: 12.4 WAR (12.2 pitching, 0.2 hitting & defense)
-- Phillies' WAR minus Carlton: 0.1 (0.7 pitching, -0.6 hitting & defense)
John Q Says:
October 12th, 2011 at 4:29 pm

Rogers Hornsby was 9.4 WAR ahead of the #2 guy on the 1924 Cardinals: 13.0 WAR for him, and 3.6 for CF Ray Blades. Unless I missed someone else for #2, which I don't think I did.

Wow... I beat John Autin on the BR blog. That's probably a first and last for me.
Kinda makes me feel how Bill James felt when he was working Tim Raines' arbitration case and during a break arrived at the men's room first. As they were relieving themselves, James remarked, "One day I can tell my grandkids that I beat Tim Raines in a footrace." Raines laughed hysterically.

@2 and 10, regarding WAR...
At the team level, WAR does reproduce the overall strength of a team fairly well, although not quite as well as Pythagorean Wins. Looking at 2011, the correlation between team WAR and team Wins was 87%, while the correlation between team Pythagorean Wins and team Wins was 94%.
The correlation between WAR and Pythagorean Wins was 91%. As WAR matures, hopefully that correlation would approach 100%. (The deviation between Pythagorean Wins and Wins is sometimes attributed to luck, or clutch play, so I'm not sure having WAR correlate with Wins is a reasonable goal.)
Joseph Says:

This one rather amazed me--I just picked a year and team at random--I have no idea if this is unusual or not.
1971, playing for Cleveland, Graig Nettle's WAR was 6.5. The rest of the non-pitchers on the team combined for a negative 5.5 WAR.
Nettle's WAR was therefore 12 points higher that of the total of the other position players on his team.
I do not see that anyone has found such a large margin for a position player up to when I posted this.

This interesting thread got me thinking about the flip side of the coin -- teams with a large WAR total but no MVP-caliber individual.
I searched for teams with the most batters at 0.5 WAR or better since 1893, then looked at the 10 teams who had at least 15 such players. Two had no hitter with 1/6 of the team total:
-- The 1949 Yankees had 17 such hitters and a team hitters' total of 30.6 WAR, led by Joe D. at 5.0. They went 97-57 and won the WS in 5 games, the first of 5 straight championships.
-- The 1986 Giants had 16 such hitters and a team total of 31.4, led by Chili Davis at 4.6. They went just 83-79 but with a pythag. record of 90-72.
-- The 1899 Chicago Orphans (future Cubs)
John Autin Says:
October 12th, 2011 at 8:49 pm
Whoops, I meant to delete the last line at #27, but I might as well flesh it out now:
-- The 1899 Chicago Orphans had 15 hitters with at least 0.5 WAR and a team hitters' total of 26.4, led by Bill Lange at 4.1.
(They met my threshold of no hitter at 1/6 of the team total, but I was also looking for closer to 30 total WAR.)

John-here is a another great Tim Raines story. I went to high school
in Palm Beach Gardens, FL from 1981-85. Tim Raines used to work
out with our high school baseball team.
One day a bunch of us were playing a pick-up basketball game and
Raines showed up, This must be 1984.
At one point I find myself guarding Raines. He shoots the ball right into
the palm of my hand. A blocked shot. I am six foot, taller than Raines.
maybe by three inches.
He was so mad that for the next several minutes he shadowed me on the
court. Paid no attention to what else was happening in this game, he wouldn't leave my face.
I knew the only way I could get rid of him, was to take a shot that he could
Next time I got the ball, I gave him a lousy little head fake. Raines jumped
high and blocked the shot quite emphatically. Afterward, Raines left me
alone, he'd had his revenge on a high school kid who got lucky one moment..

Interesting Whiz. Do any other systems of WAR or WARP correlate more with wins? You said WAr, I assume you mean the very specific formula used here, B-R WAR, not, say, Baseball Gauge.

Good read over at Deadspin about Verlander and the MVP via a video game.
Mike Felber Says:
October 13th, 2011 at 3:12 am
By any objective standard Verlander has had an excellent season, but it is debatable if it is even the most valuable this year, certainly not as valuable as Bonds in many of his best years. Or tons of other players & a bunch of pitchers. The video game rates W-L as very important, & uses no credible advanced metrics. From the the end of the above article:
The game credibly mimics the historic weight a layperson gives to a pitcher's wins and losses, which are glamour statistics largely dependent upon other factors, if not entirely discredited as a means of player evaluation.
Mike L Says:
October 13th, 2011 at 8:49 am
So, what do we learn from this experience? That great players can be on lousy teams? Is Kemp greater because his team was mediocre? And, since we bring Carlton into it, who was great amidst absurdly bad, how much of this is really team dependent (it's obviously player dependent, in the sense that you can't have another high performer the same team) and is the number more or less impressive for a pitcher?

@25 : I grew up in Cleveland, & can't believe you picked the 1971 Indians at random. They were epically bad, lucky to finish 60-102, a classic transition team of the worn out (Pinson, Harrelson), the unready (Chambliss, Lowenstein) & waves of AAA players in major league uniforms*. A few years later, we were still using their names to write mock-epics in high school. The attendance was 591,000, but if you take out the opener & the 4th of July it was 450,000 - under 6000/game in an 80,000 seat stadium.
*Not in appearance. They had some stretch poly crap that looked awful.
DavidS Says:
October 13th, 2011 at 9:41 am
@24 - WAR should not be expected to correlate 100% with wins because there is a timing element to wins (hence the discrepancy between Pythag and actual totals) that is noise around the run differential signal. It should be expected to correlate more strongly with runs scored (for offensive WAR) and runs allowed (for defensive WAR and pitching WAR).
The only stat which would be expected to correlate perfectly with actual wins at the team level is WPA, which is game-state dependent (and ties out by definition).
Genis26 Says:
October 13th, 2011 at 10:39 am
Well, Michael Cuddyer had a WAR of 3.0, and the Twins' position players (including Cuddyer) combined for just 3.9, so his teammates were actually just 0.9. So Cuddyer actually had more than 3 times the WAR as the rest of his team combined.
The amazing thing is, Denard Span had a WAR of 2.6, so his teammates were combined for just 1.3. He doubled that.
Alexi Casilla was 3rd with 1.8 WAR, almost being more than his teammate's 2.1.
One more for the Twins, starting pitcher Scott Baker, in just 21 starts and 135 IP, posted a 3.8 WAR, almost as much as ALL of the position players combined.
Is 3.9 WAR the worst mark ever for a team's position players? Even Houston's position players posted a 15.6 WAR (though their pitching was at -0.5????)
Genis26 Says:
October 13th, 2011 at 10:43 am
Well, I didn't read all of the previous posts. I guess there are plenty of other teams to post some horrid team WAR.

John A. - In 1949, Joe D. only played 76 games because he missed a big chunk of the season with a painful heel spur. If he had played a full season, he probably would've reached his usual level of 7-8 WAR (at least).
That 1949 Yankees team must've had a lot of injuries and/or platoooning (it was Casey Stengel's first year as Yankees manager), as all but one of the starters played between 103 and 116 games - Jerry Coleman (128 G) and Phil Rizzuto (153 G). Somehow they managed to win the World Series.

@40, L.A. -- Considering the runaway success of Casey's platooning strategy with the Yankees, I think that "Somehow they managed to win the World Series" doesn't quite capture the mood.
I have not studied the matter, but it seems possible to me that one reason the Yankees of 1949-58 were so successful once they reached the WS (7-2 in series, 34-22 in games) is that they weren't worn out in the process of getting there.
Whiz Says:
October 13th, 2011 at 11:38 pm
@31 Mike, yes, it was the bbref version of WAR -- I haven't checked others.
@37, yes, I agree that WAR should not necessarily correlate with wins -- that was why I suggested it should correlate more with Pythagorean wins (which is after all related to the runs scored and allowed). I suspect that the offensive WAR does correlate very well with runs scored since that analysis is more mature -- pitching and defensive WAR are probably the dominant source of the discrepancy between WAR and Pythagorean wins.

"@40, L.A. -- Considering the runaway success of Casey's platooning strategy with the Yankees, I think that "Somehow they managed to win the World Series" doesn't quite capture the mood..."
John A. - It was meant somewhat ironically, as at the time Stengel's platooning strategy was viewed with a lot of scepticism - see David Halberstam's book about that season,"The Summer of '49".
Remember, when Stengel took over the Yankees in 1949, he was seen by a lot of the press as an amusing clown and an unsuccessful manager, not any sort of strategic genius.

Alumni Travel
Gettysburg: Where Modern America Began October 17-21, 2016
Over three bloody days in July 1863, our national ideals were forged in this small Pennsylvania town, then given expression by Abraham Lincoln in America's most important speech. This trip, led by Jerry Podair, Lawrence University professor of history and Robert S. French Professor of American Studies, and Christopher Oakley '85 will include an in-depth tour of the Gettysburg battlefield, a discussion of the Gettysburg Address on the spot where Lincoln delivered it, and a classroom session on the tantalizing historical "might-have-beens" that forever haunt this battle. We'll also visit the Eisenhower Farm, where our 34th president lived in retirement, and take a special side trip to the site of the Battle of Antietam in Sharpsburg, Maryland. Join us as we explore the ground upon which modern America was born.
The cost is $895 per person, double occupancy; $1,195 single occupancy. Transportation to and from Gettysburg is not included.

Bart De Stasio '82, Zodiac crewmember Dana Raugi '06, and other Lawrence alumni for the trip of a lifetime, exploring the magnificent waters of the San Juan Islands aboard the historic Schooner Zodiac!
Sailing the Zodiac is an experience like none other. We'll spend five blissful days learning to sail following the wind and the currents, and if we're lucky, maybe some whales too. Guests are encouraged to pitch in to raise Zodiac's 7000 square feet of sails, help with sailing maneuvers, and take a turn at the helm, all under the guidance of the Zodiac's experienced captain and crew. While wind will guide our sails, marine biology will guide many of our experiences, including the opportunity to learn about local underwater environments using a remotely operated vehicle (ROV). Each evening, we'll pick a secluded bay and drop the anchor. Optional shore excursions may include touring a picturesque lighthouse, tasting artisan beers, wines, or chocolates, hiking, and playing in tide-pools. Or make use of Zodiac's kayaks or sailing dinghy while the sea lions and harbor seals look on in curiosity. Swap stories from your time at Lawrence or compare notes from the day's sailing over a delicious meal as the sun sinks behind the Olympic Mountains, then retire to your cozy bunk or stateroom.

text: 2HKO Probability Calculator http://tangerine.colinjf.com/probcalc.py Web Interface version, which should be accurate. Fill it in, and give it a whirl. Description: The Calculator aims to calculate the probability of a 2HKO with regards to the Random Number component used in the Damage Formula. You can put in different moves, and different "effects", to see the actual 2HKO probability rather than just guesstimating. Implementation: Calculates the Damage of the 2 moves, applies the Random Number component, applies the rest of the modules, and then sums up the conditional probabilities. It is done on Python and CGI. How to Use: Take note of the variables it asks for. If you don't know what they do, then take note of the Damage Formula. Plug in Numbers, and give it a whirl.

Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Feature
Jerome Tanner may not have directed The Bride, but as producer his presence is apparent: another well-lit video with clear sound, great music, hot bodies, and no-holes-barred action. And unlike another "Bride" you may have heard of, this one's no monster, but the lovely Rachel Ryan.
It seems she's about to tie the knot with Navy man Randy (Peter North), but not before their best friends, played by Jeanna Fine and Herschel Savage, treat them to pre-wedding bachelor/bachelorette parties. You can imagine how most of this goes, but actually The Bride moves along at a nice pace, due mainly to the excellent sex scenes and the elimination of much of the usual drivel in-between. The wedding practice, for instance, is treated like a rock video with effects and hi-tech soundtrack, replacing what would have been, I suspect, a lot of bad acting.
This is only my second Jeanna Fine feature, but I'll admit that her tight body and erotic persona are already firmly etched into my libido. And if you think she's faking in her scene with Herschel Savage then you're giving her too much credit as an actress! Another highlight is a wild three-way with Savage, Rene Summers, and Tiffany Storm that should raise a few eyebrows.
My only complaint is the wedding night scene with North and Ryan. A slow romantic tryst, perfect for a couples film, it just didn't fit the bang away style of this video. But overall, this one's a hit.

I take these myself and I read a study from Canada about Vit. D3 and breast cancer so I sent my daughter a bottle as she has breast cancer and asked her to take 3 to 5 a day and she tells me that she is feeling better but has had no scans as of yet to determine any effect.I like being able to buy the 10,000 IU instead of taking so many.

fast delivery to Australia, don't bother taking anything lower than 10,000 UI. Been taking 3x per day for two weeks now and feeling great already. This is an essential vitamin.
Finally an appropriate dosage for vitamin D supplements
Posted by Reviewer3154100 on Dec 18, 2011
If you live anywhere above the latitude of South Carolina, you will almost definitely need to supplement with vitamin D in order to maintain optimal levels of this crucial hormone. And forget about the recommended daily intake of 400 IU. It is way too low. I'd say if you are in good health, at least 10 000 IU/day or more the norther you go is a must! I couldn't find this dosage at my local health store so I'm glad I found it here.

Excellent produit. L'effet de la vitamine D est souverain. Outre les avantages qu'elle represente pour les cancers, c'est l'effet depression saisonniere qui m'a epate. Permet d'entrer dans l'hiver avec un mental non altere. Permet d'attendre l'ete qui tarde sans en ressentir de mal etre physique. Un must ! Avec 360 gelules, vous en avez pour bien plus d'un an. Le dosage de 10 000 UI est exceptionnellement eleve.

Yet another study shows this to be rubbish. A study in the journal Science found that global temperatures appear to be far less sensitive to the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere than originally ...Read More »

I am using screen on OS X. I have two bind commands:
bind ( eval "writebuf" "exec sh -c 'pbcopy < /tmp/screen-exchange'"
bind ) eval "exec sh -c 'pbpaste > /tmp/screen-exchange'" "readbuf"
The first one takes what is in the copy buffer and sends it to pbcopy. pbcopy is a program that takes an input and writes it to the system clipboard. This command works.
The second one is suppose to write pbpaste ( from the system clipboard ) to the screen-exchange file and then read that with readbuf. This command doesn't work. I have to enter the bound key , ctrl-a ), twice for it to work. I assume I am missing something simple. Any help would be great.
Note: If I just do the
pbpaste > /tmp/screen-exchange and then in
screen do
ctrl-a <, it works. So I think the pbpaste command is
correct, there is just something that I am missing in the bind. Any help would be
EDIT: I'm still looking for a complete solution for this to be bound to one key. In the meantime, I can use the following bind and key strokes:
bind ) eval "exec sh -c 'pbpaste > /tmp/screen-exchange'"
Then use
ctrl-a )
ctrl-a <
What is happening is that I'm writing my pbpaste to the screen-exchange file and then manually executing the readbuf command. As I said, I would still like a way to do this in one command. Any help would be great.

Rumor: DSi-only games coming to stores this fall
Kotaku's reporting that DSi-specific games will be out in the wild this fall.
According to the site's "sources," DSi-only boxes will be visually distinct, so as to ward off poor, neglected DS Lite owners.
DSi-exclusive games were announced earlier this year. However, specifics — such as a game titles and a release window — weren't discussed.
Kotaku contacted Nintendo for comment, but Nintendo basically whistled and pretended not to hear. Hopefully we'll find out more soon.

OKEMAH, Okla. (September 14, 2013)--When the boyhood home of folksinger Woody Guthrie was ordered torn down in the 1970s, the decision reflected the strained relationship between conservative Oklahoma and the native son famous for his progressive politics.
Those tensions persisted for more than a generation, but now developers plan to rebuild Guthrie's 1860s-era home in Okemah, Okla., about 60 miles south of Tulsa.
Johnny Buschardt, a spokesman for the project, said without Guthrie, there wouldn't be a Bob Dylan or a Bruce Springsteen.
Best known for the song "This Land is Your Land," Guthrie came of age during the Depression and later embraced left-wing politics, including for a time some tenets of communism.
By weaving social issues into his music, he re-imagined folk songs as platforms for protest.

Sting Slammed for Entertaining Uzbek Dictator's Daughter
Rocker Sting has been urged to donate concert cash he received after performing for the daughter of Uzbek dictator President Islam Karimov to charity by critics opposed to the private show. The former The Police's star, an avid human rights campaigner and environmental activist, has come under fire for playing the secret gig in Tashkent in November 2009.
Protesters claim Sting should have rejected the offer to sing for Gulnara Karimova, whose father rules a country with one of the world's worst records for human rights abuses. Karimov has been criticized repeatedly by the international community and non-governmental organizations like the United Nations and the European Commission of running a brutal dictatorship, violently suppressing political activism, free speech and religious worship with torture. Karimov's administration has also been embroiled in allegations of financial corruption.
Sting's managers reportedly ignored previous calls from the Global Witness campaign group to scrap the gig after being alerted to Karimov's track record. Gavin Hayman, campaign director of Global Witness, says, "We heard that Sting was to play in Uzbekistan and so we phoned and then sent an email to his publicist, Tracy Bufferd, to inform them about the brutal repression in Uzbekistan. We did not receive any response."
Now members of non-political campaign group Uzbekistan Exposed are targeting Sting, citing his support of Amnesty International, and calling for the singer to hand over the "blood money" to human rights charities to salvage his reputation. Alex Yearsley, director of Uzbekistan Exposed, says, "We shall campaign relentlessly and vocally until Sting does the right thing and puts this blood money to good use."
"We were shocked to learn that Sting had given this secret concert and received a reported 2 million pound sterling-plus for his work. Many pro-democracy and human rights groups were outraged and saddened in equal measure that he was prepared to perform for the daughter of this brutal dictator."
"Through his actions, he has severely damaged his credibility as a human rights activist and environmental campaigner. But it is not too late for Sting to redeem himself."
A petition has been launched online for fans to show their disapproval of Sting's concert decision and urge him to make the charitable donation.

First off, Awesome plugin! May get the pro.
But is it possible to change the size of the thumbs?
I tried, but noticed the png file is like 2 thumbs stacked on top of each other, and when you hover it jumps to the other thumb? Seem like you're using a method I'm not used to.
ALSO, on http://www.tcbfightteam.com/ I'm using the thumb style with the white background because the .png file that is without it looks a little pixely. Another reason I am trying to change the image.
Plus, the loading circle on that site looks a little off?
Any tips?
Anything you got would help. Thanks!

Megawatt moviestar Angelina Jolie took time out to visit Ramstein Air Base and Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany and talk with wounded warriors and stationed service men and women. Jolie also popped in on a departing Med Evac aircraft loaded with wounded soldiers that was set to depart for Andrews Air Force Base.
See how her visit affected some of those homebound troops in this video.
The Academy Award-winning Jolie is famous for her roles in films like "Girl, Interrupted," "Mr. and Mrs. Smith," "Salt" and the Lara Croft films, but she is also known the world over as an active advocate of humanitarian efforts. Jolie was recently in Cannes, France, to promote her voice-over work in the upcoming sequel to the animated movie "Kung Fu Panda" and was also informed that her directorial debut, "In the Land of Blood and Honey," has secured distribution in the United States and will be in theaters this December. – Christian Pelusi, USO

Midnight Doodles! I'm really getting into this game, Warframe (again), so what I did is that I.. made a fanart/concept art/doodle about a certain Warframe that SHOULD have it's own Primed version. (my main is a LOKI btw, favorite frame of all time! :3). If I have the time I'm going to make a 3D model of this, wish me...all the time I could get so I can actually do it, since nowadays I'm so cramped up with work! :<
The love-child of Loki Prime and Rhino Prime! Looking seriously cool, dude.
I use loki alot from time to time and im getting rlly talented at trolling enemies with the decoy and then switching one of them near the others with switch teleport while invisible and suddenly theres one very confused grineer lancer wondering what happened while his mates got their heads bashed in with BO
Haha that's a good one! I also like trolling enemies with Loki. It truly is fit for THE trickster god of mischief. )
thankyou gan main warframe juga?
This is way better than what I've seen from his design so far. Too bad, I don't even want the prime version for anything but mastery with the direction he's going now.
look's kinda old and evil :3
Awsome!!i wish the Devs make this one
I know its been a while since you've uploaded this but if you still want to make a 3D model for this I'd start with NikouT's rips found in the Steam Workshop. If you know how to take the models out from the package and convert them appropriately for use in 3D editors such as 3DS, Maya, or -shivers- Blender, then you'd have the base body to which you can add the gold trims to and the helmet is separated giving you a perfect placement for the custom prime helm (or work from the existing one)
THAT F&#%$?! LOKI PRIME!! Cooles pic of prime version so far in warframe, they should really do Loki prime instead of adding more warframes...
This is great, I also think Ash deserves a Primed frame
if only
.. God I hope we get Prime Loki, instead of Rhino. And I absolutely hope that he'll look somewhat like this! Really digging this.
Must have, GIMME GIMME GIMME GIMMEEEE DE! DEEE STAAFFF MAKE IT NAO!
This is the most amazing thing... dear god. Loki Master Race. I love you for making this.
Also, in response to your 3D model... I hope you can do it! IT would be so amazing
Also, in response to your 3D model... I hope you can do it! IT would be so amazing
DE will never create something this cool D:
Ooo would definitely get this if its in game. Love the dark feel to him paired with the gold. Great design, great color!
This is an awesome concept!
Looks like gundam........
I've been saving up resources since Mag got a prime, I only hope i heve enough when/if they make a prime of Loki.
Can't wait :\
Can't wait :\
O_O astonishing D:
OMG fucking sweet
it looks really great .. but ... remember that the style of the orokin suits and technology is more clean and with out too much symbols - for example mag and excalibur prime
love the "crown"
thanks! yea i tried to make him look more "royal" like other "PRIME" Warframes
He even looks like he wears a potato!

Abandoned iron ore mine.
A fantastic shot. I have to say this evokes a lot of emotion for me. It feels as though I'm inside the tunnel with you. The colour is excellent, and I think this acts as a catalyst for my response to this piece. Thanks for posting this!
wow you can see the pressure put on those supports. Nice job
Hi Haszczu...i want to use, Abandoned museum II, as a significant part of a composite that I would show on photo.net. My name is David Rabinowitz if you want to see my work, photo.net/photos/DavidRabinowi…. I'm new to deviant art and do not know the rules about usage. Thanks! David
half life 100%
Wow, awesome pic, but very dangerous photography!
where is this mine?
it looks like a game .___.
awesome but looks dangerous too
Cool and Unique!
strange to see a mine in such a state. i'm so used to working in pristine conditions underground--this is a scary reminder of what it looks like after we're gone.
Did you go further inside?

Beautiful hotel. Great breakfast. Nice bar with pretty good food. VERY gluten free at breakfast (caramel rolls, scones, muffins) and fab GF desserts in the bar/lounge. Rooms were large, comfy, beautiful
Room was very warm but they brought us a fan which solved the problem. Parking was a little problem but not much.

As a child I was fascinated by this "castle". Having stayed here a week with family from 20's - 80's I am pleased to say it exceeded all of my dreams. Friendly and attentive service, not stuffy or stodgy. Great breakfasts. Great music in the lounge.
Loved it all

Hotel lobby lived up to expectations, and security were friendly.
I should have realized that this was an older (vintage) type of hotel, but the room felt as though I was staying at my Grandma's place. Very basic for the star rating. No refrigerator, no microwave. Told pool was closed on arrival, $15/day to park.

The location is perfect for seeing The Forks, Museum of Human Rights and downtown. The staff is exceptionally pleasant and helpful. Style and charm of an older building, yet all modern conveniences. Great bed and linens.
The parking is not marked, so it is easy to miss the ramp and park in the wrong lot.

Glad you enjoyed your morning in Schaffhausen. I've always found it a pleasant town, even though "the largest waterfalls in all of Europe" are indeed quite modest compared to some of the ones in other parts of the world.
Vatican City? Your wife is a smart cookie, I do most of my souvenir shopping at grocery stores :-) I'm cheap, um, I mean frugal, as well as mean!!!
It was a lovely day!!
an interesting page bringing back great memories of the time, when I went to see the Rhine-falls in my childhood !
I was only in Schaffhausen for a brief time. All I saw was the falls.

Robert Duvall's "The Apostle" (1997) is the story of a preacher who believes he has unique permission to phone call the Divine. As is the case with such preachers, the rules of goodness and morality seem to apply to everyone else before they apply to him. Meaning, he is above the law until he gets frightened for breaking the law. So, his combination of impious exhilaration, impatient devotion, and self-righteous rage reveals a man in sunglasses, open palms, and fiery sermons, who plants trees while burning bridges. I love this movie as much as I despise its central character. This movie exists only because of its central character.
Q. You make a good point in your review of "A Perfect Getaway" that many filmmakers can't seem to resist giving away the entire plot or best jokes in their trailers. The trailer for "Valkyrie," for instance, practically showed the entire film, saving me the time and expense of going to see it. As a history buff, I would have loved to have seen "Valkyrie," but the endless trailer spoiled it for me. Why do you think so many filmmakers are hellbent on spoiling their work by giving away the story in previews?
Q. In your review for "The Dark Knight," you say that the Joker is a product of his father's poor treatment, but that's just one story he uses to explain his scars. Another is that he did it for his wife, and Batman interrupts before he offers a -- most likely -- different story. I think the point was that he doesn't have a cause. Who's wrong here?
LOS ANGELES - "Crash," a film about the complexities of racism in the American melting pot, was named the year's best picture here Sunday at the 78th Academy Awards. It tells interlocking stories about many of America's ethnic groups, and cops and criminals, the rich and the poor, the powerful and powerless, all involved in racism. The film's circular structure shows how a victim on one day could be a victimizer on another, and doesn't let anyone off the hook.

CHICAGO -- To aid victims of Hurricane Katrina, a special preview screening of Twentieth Century Fox's "Walk the Line" will be hosted September 25th by film critics Roger Ebert and Richard Roeper. The film brings to life the story of the young Johnny Cash (Joaquin Phoenix) and his love affair with June Carter Cash (Reese Witherspoon).
TORONTO – Is the Toronto Film Festival the most important in the world, or does it only seem that way? In recent years I've described it as second only to Cannes. Now the Toronto critic Liam Lacey says flatly: "Toronto now has the most important film festival in the world -- the largest, the most influential, the most inclusive." Yes, you say, but he is a Canadian, so of course he thinks that. Lacey is ready for you: "One reason the Toronto festival has probably not received its full recognition is, frankly, because it takes place in Canada."
TELLURIDE, Colo. – Oscar season opens every September with the Telluride and Toronto film festivals, and again this year, biopics seem to be leading the field. Last year in September we got our first looks at "Ray," "Hotel Rwanda" and "Kinsey," and so far this year the leading contenders are "Walk the Line" and "Capote." If no two people could be more different than Ray Charles and Alfred Kinsey, no two other people could be less alike than Johnny Cash and Truman Capote.
TELLURIDE, Colo. – When I first came to the Telluride Film Festival in 1980, screenings were held in Quonset huts and city parks, the old Nugget theater on Main Street, and in the faded glory of the tiny Sheridan Opera House, built when this was a boom town in mining days. The 2005 festival, which will be held over Labor Day weekend, still uses the opera house, but has added so many state-of-the-art theaters, some of them constructed inside the old Mason's Hall and the school gyms, that it feels like the most happening art movie town in America.

FAQ On Contact Lenses
Click here for your Free Trial Pair Certificate for ACUVUE® ADVANCE™ Brand Contact Lenses with HYDRACLEAR™.
Can contact lenses get stuck in your eyes? Are there certain eye problems for which you can't use contacts?
If you wear contacts, or are considering getting them, you might have some unanswered questions. We've all heard stories and myths about contact lenses; the following is a list of some of the most frequently asked questions concerning this little invention.
Why wear contact lenses?
Simply put, they trump eyeglasses in many ways. With contacts, you have your full peripheral vision without obstruction from glass frames. There's no distortion from thick lenses, and they're certainly more comfortable. Contacts don't reflect light, aggravate glare or leave marks on your nose. Oh, and they're cheaper too.
What are the different types of contacts lenses?
There are several varieties of lenses to choose from depending on your taste and lifestyle. Here's the breakdown:
Daily-wear soft lenses: Made of flexible plastics, these are generally more comfortable and more stable than RGPs, making them ideal for active lifestyles. The drawbacks: They don't last as long and don't correct all vision problems.
Disposable: Daily disposable contacts are changed every day, whereas extended-wear disposables can be worn from one to six days, usually without having to remove them. This decreases chances of eye infections from protein and bacteria buildup. The drawbacks: They're difficult to handle and don't offer visions as sharp as other lenses.
Planned replacement: These are a longer-lasting version of disposable lenses; you change them biweekly, monthly or quarterly. Since cleaning them is easier, they ensure good eye health. The drawbacks: They don't correct all visions problems and aren't as sharp as RGP lenses.
Can you wear contacts if you're astigmatic? Can a contact get lost behind your eye? The answers to these and more...

I installed this plugin, and it didn't work. I was also stumped about WHY there was a GIANT image of some chick WHO, I don't know! in my admin dashboard. Turns out, it's coming from a feed linked to your plugin!!!!
That is totally tasteless and UNnecessary! Anyways, even if the plugin had worked, I would have removed it simply because, for some reason, you've convinced yourself that you're entitled to spam my admin dashboard, which is NOT okay!
Your blackhat spam tactics suck.

I received three large rooted rhizomes of this white iris in a swap on Oct 13, 2009. Due to the weather, I didn't get to plant them out for a few days, and most of the leaves had turned brown from the cold I think. I planted them out a few days later in the front left area of Welcome to the oeft of the Ice Plant.
This planting is in the Welcome garden .
From a swap with kamiljablo
