Pulitzer Prize winner Sheri Fink's landmark investigation of patient deaths at a New Orleans hospital ravaged by Hurricane Katrina and her suspenseful portrayal of the quest for truth and justice.
In the tradition of the best investigative journalism, physician and reporter Sheri Fink reconstructs 5 days at Memorial Medical Center and draws the reader into the lives of those who struggled mightily to survive and maintain life amid chaos.
"After Katrina struck and the floodwaters rose, the power failed, and the heat climbed, exhausted caregivers chose to designate certain patients last for rescue. Months later, several of those caregivers faced criminal allegations that they deliberately injected numerous patients with drugs to hasten their deaths.
"Five Days at Memorial," the culmination of six years of reporting, unspools the mystery of what happened in those days, bringing the reader into a hospital fighting for its life and into a conversation about the most terrifying form of health care rationing.
In a voice at once involving and fair, masterful and intimate, Fink exposes the hidden dilemmas of end-of-life care and reveals just how ill-prepared we are for the impact of large-scale disasters and how we can do better. A remarkable book, engrossing from start to finish, "Five Days at Memorial" radically transforms your understanding of human nature in crisis.
About the Author
Sheri Fink is a physician and writer based in New York who has worked with the humanitarian aid organization International Medical Corps in conflict and disaster zones around the world. She received her M.D. and Ph.D. from Stanford University, undertook additional training in emergency medicine at Harvard, and has worked in the Balkans, the north Caucasus, southern Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia.

Kosovo Refugees in Albania
NPR's Jennifer Ludden reports on the flood of refugees in Albania. Hundreds of thousands of ethnic Albanians continue to pour out of Kosovo. Many of them have fled to Albania which shares a long common border with the southern Serbian province. Aid workers say nearly 80-thousand refugees have entered the country in recent days — another 100-thousand are en route. Albania is Europe's poorest nation and is likely to be overwhelmed by the influx.

not good
Posted by Reviewer1221498 on Aug 09, 2011
Mixing Cilantro + Chlorella + Glycerin is not a good idea. According to Dietrich Klinghardt cilantro should be taken 30 minutes after taking chlorella (starting with 2 drops cilantro 2 times a day and gradually increasing dose to 10 drops 3 times/day). Obviously that can never be done using this product. Yes it works but causes more harm than good. I will never buy this product again.. instead I will try other products that contain only cilantro.

Madonna And Gaga: What Should They Sing Together?
Madonna recently remarked that she loves Lady Gaga, adding that we'll be seeing the two divas onstage together real soon.
I guess they buried the hatchet in Katy Perry.
So what should Madonnagaga sing?
I have some ideas:
Upcoming Events
*"If Momma Was Married" from Gypsy
This duet would not only be adorable, it would give the wondrous impression that both ladies are around the same age. Gaga would be so cute as Baby June, and Madonna would jump at the chance to do Louise's part; she's the one who grows up to become a world famous stripper.
*"Madge, You Is My Woman Now" sung by Madonna to herself, interwoven with "Gaga, You's My Woman Now" sung by Gaga. Double narcissism this big couldn't fail on the charts! The two ladies won't even have to look at each other! Or use proper grammar!
*"Me Against The Music", the old Madonna/Britney duet. That one almost sank Brit's career, so Madonna should trot it out again and see if it's still got that killer touch. Hey, it's worth a try.
*"You Don't Bring Me Flowers", that famed Streisand/Diamond pairing. This one could end with a bitchy coup for Gaga as she hands Madge a big batch of hydrangeas and watches her cringe.
*"The Lady Is A Tramp". Gaga already sang this chestnut with Tony Bennett, but here's her chance to do it in a more accusatory manner, as she sneers her way through the song while pointing at Madonna.
*A medley of "Express Yourself" and "Born This Way". Nah, too easy.

This art direction leaves a lot to be desired.
"just commenting to gather points i love free drinks"
The man who stops advertising to save money is like the man who stops the clock to save time
Should read 'stub your toe for a great cause' not 'stub a toe for a great cause'.
It's funny but I think it highlights the downside of having your lights turned off.
More WWF ads. Was there a contest or something. Still don't get what's going on with earth hour. I could Wiki it and I will once I see an ad that makes me care enough.

Waikato police are investigating the death of a 4-month-old
baby boy last night.
The boy was reported dead at a house in Te Awamutu shortly
after 9pm.
Senior Sergeant Peter van de Wetering said the death had been
reported to the coroner.
"In respect of that death, investigations will continue today
to establish the cause of it."
Police would interview people at the house as part of their
investigation, Mr van de Wetering said.
It was too early to speculate on what had happened.
"It will require 24 hours to 48 hours before we would be in a
position to make any further comment, if at all it is
appropriate to do so then."

Austin City Limits
We have no way of knowing how seriously to take the reported threats last week by North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un, but it is probably better to be safe than sorry.
Based primarily on photos released by North Korea (can you believe your lying eyes?), the dictator appeared to be poring over documents related to some kind of air/missile strike against the United States.
Judging by the trajectory of lines on a map behind members of North Korea's leadership and military, it appeared Austin may be a target of Kim Jong Un.
Who this side of Dennis Rodman knows for sure? (U.S. Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas tweeted: "Kim Jong-Un has a beef with Austin? Very weird."
The Austin American-Statesman offered the Top 10 reasons Kim Jong Un would want to bomb Austin, including: "Angry at Rick Perry for also trying to serve lifetime term as Beloved Leader."
In addition to gaining the attention of the U.S. military (no laughing matter), at least Kim Jong Un provided some levity.
Get the picture?
We'll agree that the picture included in a recent Forbes list of the 25 "Best Places for a Working Retirement" doesn't necessarily depict Amarillo — a lake and a pier.
However, take a close look at the picture on www.forbes.com — the pier appears to end several yards from the water, which could be indications of a drought, or just a stretch to explain the picture.
Whatever, we agree with the reasoning behind Forbes' list — living in Amarillo has its advantages.
According to Forbes, Amarillo's attributes include no state income tax (that is more a reflection of the state of Texas, but we'll take it), "abundant physicians and above-average air quality."
Other locales included in the list are Auburn, Ala.; Billings, Mont.; Bowling Green, Kent. and Casper, Wyo. — which has a picture of vehicles waiting for deer to cross a roadway.
Amarillo was also mentioned because of low unemployment (4.1 percent, according to Forbes) and a low cost of living (10 percent below the U.S. average).
So the picture was not entirely accurate — those who live in Amarillo won't take exception with the rest of the picture that paints Amarillo in realistic fashion.
Lane change
The Texas Department of Transportation may or may not restrict large trucks with three or more axles from traveling in the left lane of highways with at least three lanes, but it is still worth wondering if the state is creating too much traffic in terms of laws.
TxDOT held a public meeting last week asking for input about the possibility of keeping the big rigs out of the left lanes of larger highways, which around these parts would primarily be the stretches of Interstate 40 that run through Amarillo.
It isn't a bad idea (unless you happen to drive an 18-wheeler), but we have to wonder how feasible such a new regulation would be as far as enforcement.
The big rigs would still be allowed to use the left lane for passing purposes, and to be honest, is the hogging of the left lane by truckers that much of a problem in Amarillo?
Motorists in these parts are just as likely to see a sedan poking along in the left lane as a big rig — which can be just as annoying, if not dangerous.
With respect to truckers, they may be getting the blame for a problem they are not exclusively causing.

George P. Bush Hasn't Decided What He's Running for, But Please Send Money
He may or may not be running for Texas land commissioner.
George P. Bush seems to have a bright political career ahead of him, and he may be kicking it off as Texas land commissioner. His father, Jeb Bush, sent a letter to his supporters informing them that he's "considering" running for the position, which "overseas [sic] the mineral rights, commercial real estate owned and sovereign submerged lands of the State of Texas as well as veterans affairs and historic archives." The former Florida governor adds, "I hope you will write a personal check" to George P.'s campaign, though the younger Bush's campaign strategist says, "no firm decision has been made." Either way, it can't hurt to have some campaign cash on hand.

Good Morning,
I currently have both the All In One Seo Plugin and the XML Sitemap Plugin installed on my site, would it be best to remove the XML Sitemap Plugin and activate the XML Site Map option in the All In One SEO plugin?
Good Morning,
I currently have both the All In One Seo Plugin and the XML Sitemap Plugin installed on my site, would it be best to remove the XML Sitemap Plugin and activate the XML Site Map option in the All In One SEO plugin?
Hi Grace,
The XML Sitemap feature in All in One SEO Pack does everything that the XML Sitemap plugin does so yes you can switch to using the feature in All in One SEO Pack if you like.
Good Afternoon
Should I uninstall the XML Sitemap Plugin first?
You should definitely deactivate it first. It's up to you if you want to delete it.
I've deactivated the Google sitemap plugin, renamed the sitemap files and activated the XML sitemap of All in Once SEO.
The All in one SEO XML sitemaps didn't create the sitemap files.
Why is that?
What I did wrong?
Check your settings; if you have dynamically generate sitemaps checked, then go to Settings -> Permalinks to check your permalink structure and then see if you can view your sitemap. If you don't have it checked, then click the Update Sitemap button to generate a static sitemap.
I have Dynamically generate checked.
And when I click the view sitemap it shows me this:
But when I look for these files in my root of my blog using FTP or SSH I can't find the files over there.
How can it be?
That is what the 'dynamically generated' checkbox means, it is produced on the fly from WordPress, not served from a file. WordPress can handle the robots.txt file in the same manner as well.
So I can we relaxed that this is working properly and give up on the Google XML sitemap plugin?
Yes; my advice would be to turn off sitemap indexes as well, it doesn't look like you have enough posts on your blog to require using them.
Hi Udi,
You will want to uncheck the box for Enable Sitemap Indexes under All in One SEO, XML Sitemap. You only need this checked if your sitemap contains more than 50,000 URLs or is over 10MB in size.
When you have Dynamicall Generate Sitemap checked (the default setting) there are no static files created on the server. The Sitemap is dynamically generated and displayed in a virtual file whenever a robot visits the URL for the sitemap. This avoids the numerous problems with static sitemap files.
Hi Peter and wpsmort,
Thank for your help!
I'm running this plugin on several sites and works perfect.
But now on on a certain site after 'updating site map' there is no the site map….
http://surfersmap.es/fuerteventura/sitemap.xml >>>>'Nothing found'
Weird, because there is no error message after updating
Hi Pieter,
Is /fuerteventura/ a sub-directory site? Can you try flushing your permalinks and unchecking Dynamically Generate Sitemap (http://semperplugins.com/documentation/xml-sitemaps-module/#dynamicallygeneratesitemap).
Hi wpsmort,
> /fuerteventura/ is not a sub-dir site, I added this in the general settings for SEO purposes
> when I uncheck 'Dynamically Generate Sitemap ' I get alle this kind of warnings:
'Failed to write file /sitemap.xml!'
> How do i 'flush' my permalinks?
Hi Pieter,
Ok so the first thing to do is to make sure your permalink structure is set to one of the standard permalink structures such as Post name (https://codex.wordpress.org/Settings_Permalinks_Screen). I recommend setting it to Post name if it is not already set to that. This will also flush your permalinks.
Where did you add the /fuerteventura/? Did you add it to the Site Address or the WordPress Address (http://codex.wordpress.org/Settings_General_Screen)? Do the Site Address and the WordPress Address match? If no, what is the URL for each one?
Right now I think it's the fact that you've added /fuerteventura/ to one of those fields that's messing with the permalink structure. I can tell this because I can't even get to the URL for the dynamically generated robots.txt that WordPress creates so this proves it's a WordPress configuration issue and not a problem with All in One SEO Pack.
Hi wpsmort,
I'm using POST NAME permalinks and this are my settings:
WP Address: http://surfersmap.es/wordpress
Site Address: http://surfersmap.es/fuerteventura
Hi Pieter,
Yes, I believe it's those settings for WordPress Address and Site Address that's breaking WordPress' ability to recognize path names correctly. WordPress returns a 404 error for http://surfersmap.es/wordpress/ and trying to browse to anything at http://surfersmap.es/fuerteventura/ results in either a redirect to http://surfersmap.es/wordpress/ or a 404 error.
I think you should read the guidelines for using a custom site URL.
http://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL
Hi Wpsmort,
I have been trying all possible solutions without effort.
Now I realized I have a similar WP site with the same general settings (Site Address and WordPress Address > subdirectory). And there I can create without any problem the site map… weird.
This can't be theme related I suppose?
Hi Pieter,
As I said before, this is definitely not a problem with All in One SEO Pack. This is most likely a problem with the way you set up WordPress or your server. I can't help you there, all I can do is confirm it's not a bug with our plugin and its not due to a misconfiguration with our plugin. Sorry, I wish I could help you further, maybe someone in the general WordPress forums will have an idea what's causing this.
Good Afternoon Gentlemen,
I hope you don't mind my jumping in. I'm not sure if this is causing any issues but I scanned the site through Sucuri's Free SiteCheck tool and the results show the following - Warning: Malicious Code detected on this Website.
It also shows that Apache is outdated.
See the results here - http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/surfersmap.es/fuerteventura.
See Redleg's File Viewer results too - http://goo.gl/E25E7J.
I recommend updating Apache asap and then checking to see if site is in fact infected (which it appears it might be).
After cleanup I would take another look for the sitemap.
This topic has been closed to new replies.

Frequent heartburn was positively associated with laryngopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma among nonsmokers and nondrinkers, according to a study.
The use of antacids, but not prescription medications, had a protective effect, according to data published May 23 on the website of Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, a journal of the American Association for Cancer Research.
"Previous studies examining gastric reflux and cancers of the head and neck have generated mixed results," Scott M. Langevin, PhD, a postdoctoral research fellow at Brown University in Providence, R.I., said in a news release. "Most of these studies had either few numbers of cases or they were not adjusted for confounding factors.
"Ours is a large, population-based study with robust parameters that strongly suggests gastric reflux, which causes frequent heartburn, is an independent risk factor for cancers of the pharynx and larynx."
Langevin and his colleagues identified 631 patients from a large group of individuals enrolled in a population-based, case-control study in the Boston area. Of the 631 participants, 468 had throat cancer and 163 had cancers of the vocal cord. An additional 1,234 individuals matched for age and gender with no prior history of cancer were recruited using town records to serve as controls.
All participants completed a questionnaire on their history of heartburn, smoking and drinking habits, family history of cancer and sociodemographic information. Because some head and neck cancers are caused by infection with human papillomavirus 16, the researchers tested for the presence of antigens to HPV 16 viral proteins in the blood of all participants.
Langevin and his colleagues found that among participants who were neither heavy smokers nor heavy drinkers, a history of frequent heartburn was linked to a 78% increased risk of cancers of the throat and vocal cord.
They also found that among those who had frequent heartburn, taking antacids, but not prescription medications or home remedies, had a protective effect, with a 41% reduced risk for cancers of the throat and vocal cord. The protective effect of antacids was consistent, irrespective of the participants smoking or drinking status, HPV 16 status or tumor site.
"Additional studies are needed to validate the chemopreventive effects of anatacids among patients with frequent heartburn," Langevin said. "The identification of gastric reflux as a risk factor for throat and vocal cord cancers, however, may have implications in terms of risk stratification and identification of high-risk patients."

AES E-Library
Why Network?
The use of digital audio workstations, particularly in audio for video and film applications has become increasingly widespread. The benefits in terms of improved efficiency and added creativity are widely known and accepted. One of the ways of capitalizing further on this revolution would be the ability to link workstations together in order that file information, both audio and set-up data, could be rapidly transferred from one device to another. The following paper looks at the need for networking, the various options being considered by manufacturers are discussed and the paper concludes with an analysis of user requirements.

Published: Thursday, May 23, 2013 at 8:23 p.m.

Reviews for Breast Cancer Recovery Foundation, Inc.
I volunteered for a retreat for women breast cancer survivors. What I saw the first day were a group of women with many health issues, who seemed disconnected. What I saw the last day of retreat was a group of empowered women with renewed spirits. A wonderful transformation had taken place for these ladies. They were given the room and atmosphere to talk with other survivors. A chance to know that what they were feeling wasn't crazy that other survivors were going through the same thoughts and issues. They discussed what had worked for them and together they figured out alternative solutions to what ever affected them. They had time to walk with nature, seek solitude if they wanted it or to share with others. They ate healthy meals, did activities at their own speed and choice. They had FINALLY took time out from their busy lives to focus ONLY on them. if you are a breast cancer survivor (no matter what stage of your journey that you are in) you have to attend a retreat to understand the transformation that takes place!

I have a .txt file that contains a 500 million digit binary representation of Pi.
I need to use a string representation of that in my program. I also need to be able to search it for substrings and the like - in other words, I need to be able to treat it like a normal sized string. I'll be trying to find a lot of substrings so speed is necessary.
My initial logic was to simply copy and paste the string directly into the program and use it as a static variable.. But I was unable to actually open the .txt file, so I couldn't copy and paste. My next attempt was to read the entire string from the file, but I can't do this in a static method and it takes WAAAY too long (I actually don't know exactly how long it takes, I closed the program eventually).
Is it possible to do this? Any help would be appreciated.
Edit: Potentially relevant information:
With this code:
/// <summary>
/// Gets a 500 million binary digit representation of Pi.
/// </summary>
public static string GetPi()
//as per http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/db5x7c0d.aspx
StreamReader piStream = new StreamReader(@"C:\binaryPi.txt");
string pi = "";
string line;
while ((line = piStream.ReadLine()) != null)
pi += line;
return pi;
I get an OutOfMemoryException.. So scanning the file actually doesn't seem possible, unless I'm missing something..

Doodsnikke at the Baxter Theatre's Flipside
Doodsnikke, the Afrikaans adaptation of acclaimed actor and writer Sam Shepard's 1978 Pulitzer Prize-winning play, Buried Child, is currently showing on the Flipside stage at the Baxter Theatre in Rondebosch.
This production, starring local theatre legends Gys de Villiers, Anna-Mart van der Merwe, Oscar Petersen and Ivan Abrahams, and rising talents Albert Pretorius, Travis Snyders and Thenjiwe Stemela, will run until 5 May, 2012.
At the media preview on Saturday 14 April, 2012 - with a handful of local actors and entertainers in attendance - the very intriguing cast kept me captivated from start to finish.
As I watched this family drama unfold - with its twisted but good storyline and emotional turmoil against a superbly detailed set - it was interesting to see the care taken to keep the family unit together and not let the skeleton out of the closet. The intricacies of daily family life relating to respect, anger, sadness and often dry humour capture the essence that unlocks the story and, as you look deeper, you are able to see and appreciate the beauty of it.
This is one of those opportunities to experience local SA talent that should not be missed!

Full-bodied black girl fanatics.
The opener here in which Julian St. Jox has at it with a hot young chick who sports a distinctively ample assortment of girl parts is the high point of the tape, and most of what follows fails to live up to the heat conjured by this pairing. There is, however, something to be said for the rather raw carnality of Mr. Pete's doggie fuck with a heavily-inked bleached-blonde sista, which takes place on a gorgeously tacky red velvet couch. A spotty production overall.

Twin Cities fashion trucks come together for downtown shopping this week
Food trucks are hot right now, but what about fashion trucks? Two years ago, Minnesota got its first fashion truck, the Fashion Mobile, followed by Flaunt Accessories taking to the streets last year. This Friday, four local fashion trucks will be coming together for an after-work event in downtown Minneapolis.
The four fashion trucks participating are Style a Go-Go, which offers pretty necklaces, scarves, belts, clutches, and flowing summertime dresses and tops; Flaunt, which specializes in locally made jewelry, hats, and other items; the Fashion Mobile, with its jewelry and dresses; and Pie Essentials, which sells lingerie, vibrators, and erotic gifts.
::UPDATE:: The Uncommon Loon, a mobile shopping unit offering thrift-store items, has also been added, totaling five fashion trucks this Friday.
The trucks will be coming together Friday, August 1, from 5 to 9 p.m. in the Ramada Lot on Hawthorne between 10th and 11th Streets in downtown Minneapolis. While this will be the first event of its kind here in the Twin Cities, the group hopes to host a few more happenings this summer, so if things go well you might see a fashion-truck festival in your neighborhood soon.

To date, only a few attempts have been done to estimate the contribution of Mediterranean ecosystems to the global carbon cycle. Within this context, shrub species, composition and structure of the Mediterranean shrublands developing along the Latium coast (Italy) were analyzed in order to evaluate their contribution to carbon (C) sequestration, also taking into consideration the economic benefits at a national level. The considered shrublands had a shrub density of 1,200 ± 500 shrubs ha−1. Shrubs were classified into small (S), medium (M) and large (L), according to their volume (V) and leaf area index (LAI). The total yearly carbon dioxide (CO2) sequestration per species (SCy) was calculated multiplying the total photosynthetic leaf surface area (spt) of each species by the mean yearly photosynthetic rate and the total yearly photosynthetic activity time (in hours). Q. ilex and A. unedo had the highest SCy (46.2 ± 15.8 kg CO2 year−1, mean value), followed by P. latifolia (17.5 ± 6.2 kg CO2 year−1), E. arborea, E. multiflora, C. incanus, P. lentiscus, R. officinalis, and S. aspera (6.8 ± 4.2 kg CO2 year−1, mean value). The total yearly CO2 sequestration per shrub (SCshy) was 149 ± 5 kg CO2 year−1 in L, decreasing 30 % in M and 80 % in S shrubs. Taking into account the frequency of S, M and L and their SCshy, the total CO2 sequestration of the Mediterranean maquis was quantified in 80 Mg CO2 ha−1 year−1, corresponding to 22 Mg C ha−1 year−1. From a monetary viewpoint, this quantity could be valued to more than 500 US$ ha−1 year−1. Extending this benefit to the Mediterranean shrublands throughout the whole country, we obtained a nationwide estimated annual benefit in the order of $500 million.

Kate Walsh
Kate Walsh in Levi's Shorts
Kate Walsh looked to have her hands full while carrying some bags back to her car after doing some shopping in LA. While out, she wore a pair of Levi's shorts, with a graphic print tee, blazer, and white shoes.
I'm not the biggest fan of this outfit, I think there's too much going on and it looks a bit mismatched. I think it'd look a lot better if she switched the white shoes out for a pair of flats or sandals. You can buy Levi's online from their website here.
Kate Walsh in One Teaspoon Bandit Shorts in Black
Kate Walsh was spotted on her way out after visiting the salon in West Hollywood, California. The actress wore a pair of One Teaspoon Bandit Shorts in Black with some boots and a shirt by Isabel Marant.
I do like the combination of the pieces here because I think the shirt and the shorts work really well together. I do wish that Kate tucked in the shirt in a more haphazard way though.

The lovely Kate Walsh was snapped while out and about in Los Angeles, California last week. She seemed to be in good spirits as the paps got shots of her.
Kate was wearing a double denim outfit for the day, pairing her Mother The Dropout with a similar washed denim shirt. We don't often see this type of look with the pairing of these shoes, but I think the denim on denim is fantastic! Buy Mother online at Shopbop.com.

Kate Walsh in Citizens of Humanity Boyfriend Shorts
Kate Walsh was snapped running errands in Beverly Hills while wearing her Citizens of Humanity boyfriend shorts with a pink blouse and flat sandals. We have seen Kate wearing Citizens of Humanity quite a bit and she was also featured on the blog last month in these shorts.
I think my favorite pair from the brand that she's ever worn is the Angie Super Flares, I would love to see her out in that pair again. You can buy Citizens of Humanity shorts and jeans online from Shopbop.com.

What Is CWD?
Where Is CWD Found?
How New Jersey Is Responding
© JeffCrawn.com
Urine-Based Deer Lures Advisory
The NJDEP Division of Fish and Wildlife recommends the use of synthetic, non-urine-based scents or lures for deer hunting. The infectious prions which cause Chronic Wasting Disease can be spread through urine-based lures. Studies have shown the prions can survive for years in contaminated soils and the environment. Urine-based scents and lures are not treated to kill the prions as heat or chemical treatments would also reduce the desired scent characteristics.Hunters using urine-based scents should place them in areas out of contact with deer, the ground or vegetation.
See NJFishandWildlife.com/cwdinfo.htm for more information on CWD in New Jersey and the New Jersey CWD Response Plan.
Visit cwd-info.org for more comprehensive CWD information.
Regulations in red are new this year.

Trademarks receive much less media attention than patents or copyrights – at least in open source circles – but it looks like the trademark buzz might be heating up again with the recent

1933 - 1968
The year was 1961, I was 10 and in grade 5 (or 6?). At that time our public school, Highview, in Hamilton, had a wonderful man for a Principal, Mr. Howard.
In the 1960s my father was seconded to the ROM from the Toronto Board of Education and the immediate effect of this career move for me was access to the Royal Ontario Museum after closing hours....
ROM was one of my favorite haunts growing up in the '60's. Dad was executive manager of the Park Plaza Hotel across the street, and we lived on the 11th floor of the south wing.

Gone Fishing (Literally) In Yellowstone
Full disclosure: This is personal. I am going on a trip to Yellowstone (for the first time!), I may or may not literally cast a fishing line, and I am excited.
So I want to share these pictures to make you excited, too. Do you have Yellowstone photos? Add them to our Flickr pool! I may share a few when (if) I get back.
The photos in this gallery were all taken in June by Getty Images photographer Mark Ralston. But I also couldn't resist this one:

June in Clayton Kershaw's Zone 12 pitching.
July 6, 2016 6:00 am
Everybody butchers baseball. How do romance novels do, you might wonder.
We play a game when we go on vacation: One person grabs a steamy romance novel out of the bag, reads the title and back-cover plot summary out loud, and everybody else writes a first sentence for the book. Then the original person reads all the first sentences out loud, and the rest of us guess which one is real. Long way of telling you how I ended up with a copy of The Winning Season, by Alison Packard, not long ago.
June 16, 2016 12:30 am
Pitcher roles change, but what we think of as (statistically) a full season hasn't. This is bad and wrong.
One hundred and sixty-two innings was as good a number as any. By design—"provided that the pitcher has pitched at least as many innings in league championship games as the number of games scheduled for each club in his club's league that season (MLB Rule 9.22(b))"—the number had a pleasing symmetry with the number of games in a season, which is one of baseball's three or four most significant figures. And it worked. In 1962, for instance, there were 118 pitchers who started at least 10 games. A majority—58 percent—reached 162 innings. A supermajority (70.1 percent) of pitchers who started at least 15 games did; 80 percent of pitchers who started at least 20 did. If you were a starter, the minimum-innings threshold recognized you.

Is anybody doing anything interesting, or are we all just waiting for the apocalypse?
The Oakland A's started the ninth inning of Game 7 of the 1973 World Series ahead 5-1. There is video of this. Rollie Fingers is on the mound. The great A's relief ace is already the great A's relief ace by this point. He was an All-Star in '73, his 1.92 ERA the fifth best in baseball (minimum 50 innings; third best minimum 100). He saved 22 games, third-most in baseball. He had pitched in six of the seven World Series games, for a total of 12 2/3 innings as John Milner worked him to a 3-2 count leading off the ninth in Game 7. Milner pulls the pitch foul, and that's when the video of Game 7 cuts off. The final half-inning of that game doesn't appear to exist online.

The ultimate unintended consequence of the ever-expanding bullpen.
In the sixth inning of a recent Cubs game, Addison Russell (a right-hander) singled off Gio Gonzalez (a left-hander) to bring the Cubs to within one run of the Nationals. Blake Treinen (a right-hander) relieved Gonzalez (the left-hander) to face Tim Federowicz (a right-hander), who was immediately replaced by Tommy La Stella (a left-hander), who walked to load the bases for Ryan Kalish (a left-hander), pinch-hitting for Clayton Richard (a pitcher), at which point Dusty Baker (a right-hander) walked to the mound (a no-hander) and signaled for Sammy Solis (a left-hander (who bats right)), which is when the ride stopped. Solis faced Kalish. It took some doing, but Baker finally got his platoon advantage.

On the pitches the best pitcher in baseball has thrown, by one way of measuring it, the worst--and why they didn't hurt him.
An English teacher once gave us a writing assignment: Describe the taste of the best chocolate you ever had, to somebody who has never had chocolate. Without the self-referential crutch ("It tastes like chocolate, but, like, really chocolaty"), how do you convey what makes chocolate good?

A sketch of the missing bunts for us to put on our Missing Bunts fliers.
Here's a very brief history of the sacrifice bunt: From around 1960 through around 1981, teams bunted around .45 times per game. There was such a powerful instinct guiding managers to this number that even the introduction of the DH didn't budge it. In 1982, sacrifices dropped under .4/game for the first time, but hung in around .38 or so until the end of the century. Since then, bunts have been steadily dropping, at the rate of just under one-hundredth of a bunt per game per year. Put another way, a decline of around 3 percent per game per year. Last year, there were .25 bunts per game.

How many simulations does it take for the Rockies to win 106 games, or the Dodgers to lose 121?
If PECOTA were a sentient Baseball Prospectus reader, I bet it would mostly ignore our projected team win totals. Putting a single number on a team's upcoming season is antithetical to what PECOTA tries to do. It doesn't actually see the Royals as a 75-win team, or the Cubs as a 94-win team; it sees them both as collections of players who are individually more likely to do some things than others, and who are collectively more likely to do some things than others. If forced—and, really, if you think about how many steps it takes us to get from Omar Infante's individual projections to a one-number team projection for the Royals, "forced" might be exactly the word you'd use—PECOTA will give you a most likely number for the team. But that specific number is not that likely, and it's not what PECOTA wants you to take away from this.

"echo "
