Miami Marlins New Look
The Marlins' new look began to take shape back on September 28, when the signing of Ozzie Guillen, as their new manager, was made official with a press conference. Things took off from there. Next came changing the team name from Florida Marlins, to Miami Marlins, which subsequently lead to a new logo, as well as new uniforms. But the biggest news thus far isn't the new uniforms or manager, but the newest members of the Miami Marlins, Heath Bell and Jose Reyes. Reyes–who signed a six-year, 106 Million dollar contract–is sure to help the Marlins out tremendoulsy, with his great speed and hitting ability, while Bell–who signed a three-year 27 Million dollar contract–is sure to close out plenty of games. Both of these signings were great ones for the Miami Marlins, but all this money spent so far brings up a major question: Will the signing of Bell and Reyes increase attendance for the 2012 season?
So, will the addition of Heath Bell and Jose Reyes to the Marlins spark baseball fans' interests enough to get them to buy tickets and take a trip to the ballpark? The Marlins better hope so. I need not remind you of the scene that took place at a Marlins-Reds game in August of this past season. A mere 347 "fans" attended that game:
The Marlins needed to find a way to boost attendance levels, and I think they found it. With the additon of Guillen, Bell and Reyes–with talk of Pujols recieving a ten-year offer exceeding 200 Million dollars– combined with the new ballpark and uniforms, I think the 2012 attendance levels will be up, and stay up as long as the Marlins begin, and continue, to win. If not, I can very easily see the Marlins' attendance going back to their well-known levels.

MLB's Most Likeable Players-Fans Point of View
Question: What do Curtis Granderson, Ichiro Suzuki, Heath Bell, Brandon Phillips, David Ortiz, and Johnny Damon, all have in common?
Answer: They are all great guys who enjoy interacting with their fans, and giving back.
So, in honor of their general awesomeness, I decided to ask six fans (one for each player) the same three questions, to see their opinions on the coolest guys in baseball. Here's what they had to say:
Big thanks to Curtis Granderson fan Alexandra, for answering my questions.
1. What is it about Curtis that makes him such a likeable guy?
His personality and the way he plays the game. He plays with his heart and has fun with it. He's a great guy on and off the field.
2. Since becoming a fan is there anything that Curtis has done on, or off, the field, that has stood out to you?
His Grand Kids Foundation and how he donates thousands of dollars worth of baseball gear to schools around New York every year.
3. On a scale of 1-10, rank Curtis in terms of fan friendliness/likeability. (With 10 being highest.)
Definitely a 10. He's a very humble guy. Every one likes him even more after meeting him. He loves his fans.
Big thanks to Ichiro Suzuki fan Luke, for answering my questions.
1. What is it about Ichiro that makes him such a likeable guy?
I think many people like him because he is a good guy who is always smiling. He also has a lot of talent, plays hard and plays the right way.
2. Since becoming a fan is there anything that Ichiro has done on, or off, the field, that has stood out to you?
I believe he helped get donation stuff going when the Earthquake tore apart Japan. I believe he's just a really good guy.
3. On a scale of 1-10, rank Ichiro in terms of fan friendliness/likeability. (With 10 being the highest.)
I would say he is about an 8. Really friendly guy.
Big thanks to Heath Bell fan Zack, for answering my questions.
1. What is it about Heath that makes him such a likeable guy?
He's basically a four-year-old in a grown man's body. He's happy and friendly, and he doesn't behave like everyone seems to think that a professional athlete should.
2. Since becoming a fan, is there anything that Heath has done on, or off, the field, that has stood out to you?
He donated more than $200 to my charity fundraiser two years ago for Pitch In For Baseball. That was way above and beyond anything I ever expected from him.
3. On a scale of 1-10, rank Heath in terms of fan friendliness/likeability. (With 10 being the highest.)
I'd say somewhere around 14.
Big thanks to Brandon Phillips fan Neiko, for answering my questions.
1. What is it about Brandon that makes him such a likeable guy?
Brandon is a very caring and supportive person. He shows he cares about his family, friends, and fans, which makes him likeable.
2. Since becoming a fan is there anything that Brandon has done on, or off, the field, that has stood out to you?
The fact that Brandon has become a worldwide known baseball player, and has interacted more with his fans. That shows the person he is.
3. On a scale of 1-10, rank Brandon in terms of fan friendliness/likeability. (With 10 being highest.)
I would say 10 because once you really get to know him he's the most fan friendly and likable player in the MLB.
Big thanks to David Ortiz fan Jordan, for answering my questions.
1. What is it about David that makes him such a likeable guy?
He's shown to be a generally nice guy from what I've seen from games. A gentle giant of sorts. Reference being an MLB fancave video where he is wearing his jersey walking around New York, looking for hugs.
2. Since becoming a fan is there anything that David has done on, or off, the field that has stood out to you?
I was watching a Sox v. Yanks game on ESPN back in May. Next to the dugout was a father wearing a yanks hat, and a son wearing a sox hat. He put his bat up, noticed the boy wearing a sox hat in yankee stadium, and pulled his bat back out and handed it to the kid. Awesome in my book.
3. On a scale of 1-10, rank David in terms of fan friendliness/likeability. (With 10 being the highest.)
Giving that kid his bat gives him a 10 in my book.
Big thanks to Johnny Damon fan Teresa, for answering my questions.
1. What is it about Johnny that makes him such a likeable guy?
J D loves baseball. Would have stayed in Boston for less $$ but was forced to the Yanks. Success did not change him. He's remained someone his mom could be proud of. Never whined, when not given the media attention he deserved. Just played ball.
2. Since becoming a fan is there anything that Johnny has done on, or off, the field, that has stood out to you?
I became a J D fan when he donated his hair to Locks of Love to help a child (while in Boston).
3. On a scale of 1-10, rank Johnny in terms of fan friendliness/likeability. (With 10 being highest.)
While in Boston a 10. Yanks a 5. Back up to an 8 these days.
So there you have it. Six different opinions, on six different players. I hope this entry has helped to turn you into a fan of all six players. When it comes down to it, they're all GREAT guys.

Last Entry Until Next Week………
This is the last entry I'm going to be writing until next week. Reason being, is that MLBlogs is going to be converting from movable type pro to WordPress. The conversion will start on Friday and end on Monday. The conversion is suposed to make blogging more enjoyable and an easier experience. We'll see……..
I'll leave you with the two main points of interest:
Heath Bell's next save will be the 100th of his career.
As of this second, Derek Jeter has 2,961 career hits. (39 away from 3,000.)
That's all until Monday……….
Top 5 Favorite Players-2011 Update # 6
There's a lot to talk about this week. It has been a very productive one for my favorite players. So let's get started:
Heath Bell has had three save opportunities since my last entry. He however only converted two out of the three of those opportunities into saves. And last night was a big one for his career. Getting one more save meant passing Trevor Hoffman for the all time Padres consecutive saves leader. But it wasn't meant to be. With two out in the top of the ninth, Heath got a ground ball to third base. Easy play right? Wrong. The ball was bounced and the first baseman couldn't snag it. The streak of 41 consecutive saves, was over. But Heath Bell has another milestone coming up that is also exciting. His 100th save. He is currently at 98 saves. So it won't take him long to reach triple digits. (The Padres are currently 13-19.)
Since last Saturday's entry, Derek has gotten five more hits. This brings his career total to 2,954 hits. Only 46 away from 3,000. (See my milestone tracker on the right side.) Jeter has been a little more consistent lately in his hitting. He has gotten a hit in his last four games played. Maybe he will finally get into a groove, and help to speed along the process of getting him to 3,000 hits. It's one of those milestones that when you're in a slump can seem so far away. But when you start to see the ball better, and get hits, can approach fast. (The Yankees are currently 18-12.)
Tim has had only one start since my last entry. In that one start he accomplished a great deal of things. First of all, he got the win. That's always important. Second of all he got TWELVE strikeouts, putting him past Christy Mathewson for the most double digit strikeout games in Giants history. His career strikeouts is also very impressive. Tim currently has 964 career strikeouts. So look out in his next few starts for Tim to hit 1,000 strikeouts for his career. (The Giants are currently 16-16.)
Although still not the slugger so far that he was last year, Albert Pujols is starting to increase his batting average. His current average is .264 for the season. His hits have come mostly off of singles, and have been rather consistent lately. Around one every game. Although Albert did have three hits against the Marlins Thursday night. Pujols has a milestone as well that is approaching. 2,000 career hits. He currently has 1,926 career hits. So he's only 74 hits away. I know that sounds like a lot, but if he starts to hit like the old Albert, it will be here in no time. (The Cardinals are currently 19-14.)
Mariano currently has 571 saves for his career. (See my milestone tracker to the right.) This brings him 31 away from passing Trevor Hoffman for the most saves ever. The way Mariano Rivera is pitching lately, it will take something drastic for him to not reach the record. He is just so dominating on the mound, and nine times out of ten, gets the job done. Last nights save was the twelfth of the season for Mo.
Since being arrested on DUI charges on Monday, Shin-Soo Choo has gone 0-11 in plate appearances.
Willie Mays turned 80 years old yesterday.
Andre Ethier has a current hit streak of thirty games.
I more than likely won't be able to write an update next Saturday. Reason being, that MLBlogs is undergoing a conversion from Movable type pro to WordPress. During that time I won't be able to access my blog. So I may have to do a two week entry the next Saturday, like I did last Saturday.
Reds Vs. Yankees– 45 days
Also, if you didn't read about me winning tickets to a Padres game from Heath Bell, read about it HERE.
Heath Bell Twitter Ticket Contest
GOOD NEWS: I won two tickets to Saturday's Padres game versus the Diamond backs courtesy of Heath Bell.
BAD NEWS: I can't attend the game.
Before I get started let me point out that I thought I would be able to attend Saturday's game. I wouldn't of participated if I didn't think I could make it. I thought I could. Okay. Now that I've got that out of the way, keep reading………
It all started at midnight on May 6th, when Heath Bell tweeted the following tweet:
Okay everybody. New ticket contest in five minutes…..for Friday and Saturdays games.
I figured, "what the heck." It wasn't like I was going to win. (HA!) So when Heath tweeted his next tweet……
Name my favorite Actor and Actress….Actor=2 tix for Fridays game and Actress=2 tix for Saturday. Get both, win both……..GO!
……I had no hesitation in trying to guess the answers.
I tried to guess actors that were well known. But alas, had only given two guesses when Heath tweeted again:
We have a winner for Actor….no one's gotten Actress yet though.
Oh well. At least I tried. I was about to give up and let the other tweeps keep guessing but I decided to stay in and guess some actresses. My first guess:
Helen Hunt.
My second guess:
Ashley Judd.
Thirty seconds after I guessed Ashley Judd, the following tweet appeared on Heath's twitter page:
Then the unthinkable happened. Heath tweeted one last time with the winners twitter names. (I'm @M_2012H by the way.) And the results were…….
Congrats to @NickLee51 and @M_2012H for being the first to guess Tom Hanks and Ashley Judd!
Yeah. I WON! WHOOOOOOOOO! But no. I checked my schedule and CRAAAP. There was absolutely NO way I could attend. It didn't help my state when Heath sent me a DM. It read:
Hey dude…Congrats! I owe you 2 tix for tomorrow nights game. Shoot me a msg back with your full name as it appears on ur drivers lic.
Correction by Heath:
Actually your 2 tix are for Saturdays game.
I let Heath know that I probably wouldn't be able to attend. His response:
Hope you can go. The tix will be there but you have to let me know what name to leave them under.
If you know you can't go I'll give them to the 2nd person to guess Ashley Judd….let me know.
I guess that's fair. I mean, if I came in second and the first place winner couldn't go I'd want the tickets to go straight to me. But it still doesn't make me any less upset over the situation. Well, at least I'll always be able to brag, "I once won a twitter contest from Padres closer Heath Bell." How many people can say that? Sigh………
I let Heath know 100% for sure today that I wouldn't be able to attend Saturday's game. His response:
Thanks. Since you can't go tomorrow let me know which game you want to go to and I'll leave you 2 tix. Just give me at least a days notice.
That's right! Heath will give me two free tickets to the home game of my choice. I probably won't be able to get out to CA until the summer, but I'm definitely going now!
Top 5 Favorite Players-2011 Update # 5
It's been two weeks since my last update of my favorite players, and a lot has happened:
Since my last entry, Heath Bell earned another two saves. This brings his career saves to 96. Heath is off to a great start this year, as he is still perfect in saves versus save opportunities. (5 for 5.) Heath's most recent top play included him striking out Phillies slugger Ryan Howard. When Heath gets to 100 saves I'm going to write a blog entry about him, so check back when he reaches the milestone. (The Padres are currently 9-17.)
Derek Jeter currently has 2,949 hits for his career. (See my milestone tab to the right.) This leaves him just 51 hits away from 3,000. It's hard to predict when exactly Jeter will reach the milestone. Reason being, is that he's not consistent. On one night he might not get any hits. And on another, he might get 4 hits. He's that unpredictable. Unpredictable or not, Jeter's average is currently .258. Not horrible, but not great either. (The Yankees are currently 14-9.)
Tim has had three starts since my last entry. Lincecum was pitching just like him nickname, "The Freak", would suggest he should on April 18th. He came close to a no hitter, taking it into the sixth inning. Since that great game, Lincecum's last two starts have been terrible. Giving up 8 runs combined over the last two games. Tim's current ERA is 2.90, with a win-loss record of 2-3. (The Giants are currently 12-13.)
Albert Pujols is currently tagged with a .255 batting average. The bad part about his batting average is that it doesn't reflect how well he's been playing lately. Since my last entry Pujols has been hitting the ball a lot better. He is up to 7 home runs this season. Giving him 415 home runs for his career. It is rare to see Albert batting under .300, though I feel he'll get it above the .300 mark before the beggining of June. (The Cardinals are currently 15-11.)
Mariano Rivera has a current saves to saves oppotunity ratio of 8 for 10. Yes, that means Mo's not perfect. He did blow two saves since my last entry. But hey, he's still leading the AL East in saves with 8. So he's still the best closer in baseball. Just not perfect as we ALL thought. (Or at least, I did.) Mariano currently has 567 career saves. Which means he's just 35 away from the all time saves record.
Ozzie Guillen was suspended for two games after tweeting about the ejection call by home the home plate umpire, during the game.
Andre Ethier has a current hitting streak of 25 straight games. (Let's hope I don't jinx it.)
Johnny Damon had a 16 game hitting streak until losing it in last nights game versus the Angels.
I'll try to post a new entry every Saturday for the rest of the season, but I can't promise it. I'll do my best to do so, but I am sometimes REALLY busy on the weekends. But hopefully I'll be able to get the job done.
I'm adding a new feature to the bottom of my updates. A days 'til my next Major League ballgame stat. And it's starting in this entry:
Reds Vs. Yankees— 52 days
Top 5 Entrances From The Bullpen
As you may have already noticed, I LOVE organization. And thus, I LOVE lists. So I thought it would be fun to write a blog entry about my five favorite current bullpen entrances in baseball. Like all of my other lists, these are in NO particular order:
MARIANO RIVERA("Enter Sandman")
Mariano Rivera has an entrance that classifies under the category of just a "normal" entrance. But it makes my top 5, even though there's nothing unusual about it, because of the man's legacy. Although it's not shown in the save stats, Mariano Rivera IS the best closer of all time. Sure, Trevor Hoffman has more saves than Mo, but that will change this season. As Mariano Rivera currently has 567 career saves. (See my milestone tab on the right.) He needs just 35 more to have the career saves stat to back up the statement of best closer ever. Even though his pitching already shows it.
Heath's entrance from the bullpen is the complete opposite of Mo's. Mariano Rivera's entrance is a normal jog in from the bullpen to the mound. But not Heath Bell. Oh no. Heath comes into the game by way of a full out SPRINT. A sprint in which he always slows to a walk by second base. It's the top speed run in from the bullpen that enables Heath to make my top 5.
Aroldis, just like Mo, has a normal entrance from the bullpen. Just a steady jog from the towards the mound. And as far as a legacy, Chapman hasn't been around long enough to have established a great one like Mo's. The one thing that Aroldis Chapman does have that no one else in my top 5 has is a ROCKET arm. A rocket isn't even fast enough to be used in the same sentence with his arm. It's more like a rocket on steroids. The top speed ever recorded by a Major League pitcher is 106. A record that Aroldis Chapman holds. And it is that unhuman arm that EVERYONE wants to see in action, that enables Aroldis to make it into my top 5.
I'm not going to beat around the bush for this one. It's obvious why Brian makes it into my top five. His beard. "Fear The Beard." His beard has helped to earn Wilson a lot of fans. (As well as money.) I mean, who doesn't like to see a guy with a "magical" beard enter in from the bullpen to close out a ballgame? I know I do. And it's that intriguing beard that convinced me to add him to my top five list.
Jonathan made it into my top five entrances because of the inevitability he brings to the mound with him. I mean, when any of my other four picks enter into the ballgame, they only need a one run lead to secure a win. But not Broxton. Noooo……not Broxton. He needs at least a ten run lead to get the win for the Dodgers. And even then they might only win by one. He's really struggling right now. He NEEDS to go to the minors to work things out. Don't believe that he needs to be sent down? Then watch Dodgerfilms video on the subject. Go ahead……..watch it. Click anywhere in this sentence…….and BOOM…..you're off. Just like that.
I'm am 100% positive that I'm going to post a top five players update this Saturday. I couldn't do one last weekend because I had…….NO TIME. But I'll definitely do one this time. I'm going to name it # 5, even though update # 4 wasn't a real update. This Saturday's update is going to be two weeks worth. So be sure to come back on Saturday to read it……….
Top 5 Players-2011 Update # 3
I didn't think I was going to be able to post my regular Saturday entry today. (Storms in the area caused power outages.) But here it is:
Heath earned another save last night in Houston. That brings his career total to 94 career saves. Heath is still perfect when it comes to saves versus save opportunities. (3 for 3.) Heath is doing great. (The Padres are currently 6-8.)
Derek Jeter currently has 2,938 career hits. This puts him 62 hits away from the 3,000 hit mark. Jeter has gotten 5 hits in his past four games. This is a major improvement for Jeter since the start of the season. Jeter's average is slowly starting to creep up. With a current average of .240. (The Yankees are currently 8-5.)
TIM LINCECUMLincecum's most recent start wasn't as impresive as his first two. He game up 3 runs and 6 hits over 5.1 innings. This brings his ERA for the season to 1.86. He has still only given up just 1 home run so far this year. (The Giants are currently 7-6.) Check out this great play Tim made in his last start.
Albert Pujols must of read my entry I wrote about him last Saturday, because he has started to get red hot. He has hit 3 home runs in his last 2 games. His average is currently .241. But I'm sure he'll get it above .300 soon. (The Cardinals are currently 7-7.)
What can I say about Mo? I guess I could sum his pitching this year up in one word…..AWESOME. Mo is 6 for 6 is saves versus save opportunities. He is now up to 565 career saves. Just 37 away from passing Trevor Hoffman for the record.
Josh Hamilton injured his shoulder diving in to home plate on a "stupid" decision to run. He is expected to be out for 6-8 weeks.
Yesterday (April 15th) was Jackie Robinson day. Every player on every team wore the number 42 in honor of him. (Mariano Rivera put on the same uni.)
I'm planning on attending at least one Triple-A game sometime this week. So I'll post a recap(with pictures) on here afterwards.

Top 5 Favorite Players-2011 Update # 2
Now that we are over two weeks into the 2011 baseball season, we are getting a better idea of how well our favorite players are performing. Here is update number 2 for my five favorite players:
Since my last update Heath has earned another save making his career total 93 saves. In the two innings he has pitched in this season, he has only allowed one hit. That is extremely good pitching folks. (The Padres are currently 3-2.)
Derek Jeter has gotten 4 more hits since my last update. This puts him at 6 hits on the year, and 2,932 for his career. This puts him ever so slightly closer to the 3,000 hit mark, with only 68 needed to do so. Although Jeter seems to be getting at least one hit a game recently, his average is still just .231. However I believe Jeter is going to lock in soon. (The Yankees are currently 4-3. Not including the outcome of today's, currenly in progress, game against the Redsox.)
Tim has now allowed 1 earned run in his two starts, putting his ERA at .64. In his second game pitched he allowed just one run on a home run. But only one run allowed isn't the main story. He struck out 13 Padres batters. That's not a typo….THIRTEEN. Although he gave up the home run he still got the win. Tim's record is now 1-1. (The Giants are currently 3-4.)
Albert still hasn't locked in during his at bats. He is still having trouble getting hits, with his hits to at bats ratio being 5-28; or a .179 batting average, for those of you who don't excell in math. Pujols has only hit one home run this year, putting his total still at 409 for his career. He better start improving soon, or the Cardinals may be in trouble this season without their best slugger doing just that…slugging. (The Cardinals are currently 2-5.)
Mariano Rivera is currently the most dominant closer in baseball. He's gotten four saves in four attempts. This puts his career saves total at 563 saves. Only 39 saves away from the all time saves record. Rivera looks so great right now. I wouldn't be surprised if he got the save in every opportunity this season.
Manny Ramirez has decided to retire from baseball.
The Rays and the Red Sox finally got their first wins.
The Rangers continue their winning streak and are currently 6-0.
I'm still planning on doing one of these update entries EVERY Saturday of the season. So be sure to check back at LEAST every Saturday………

An education and drug testing program will be implemented for American Hockey League players, effective for the 2014-15 season, the National Hockey League and American Hockey League announced today.
The details of the AHL program, which was the result of a collaborative effort between the two leagues (NHL and AHL), the National Hockey League Players' Association and the Professional Hockey Players' Association (which represents AHL players in collective bargaining), substantially replicate the collectively bargained policies already in place for NHL players.
In the NHL, a first positive test results in a 20-game suspension without pay and mandatory referral to the league's Substance Abuse/Behavioral Health Program for evaluation, education and possible treatment.
A second positive test brings a 60-game suspension without pay.
A third positive test results in a permanent suspension. A player receiving a third positive test and a permanent suspension from play in the league will, however, be eligible to apply for reinstatement after two years.
The AHL drug testing program will be administered by the doctors who supervise the NHL/NHLPA Performance-Enhancing Substances Program and the Substance Abuse/Behavioral Health Program.

Ah, finally! The final, gold version of CityDesk 2.0 is now shipping. Yes, it's a completely free upgrade.
We used to have both a Home Edition and a Professional Edition. That was a brave experiment, which was, I have to admit, something of a failure. Call it the Fog Creek PCjr. We wanted to make a cheaper entry-level version of CityDesk, but in the end we made something that was too cheap to support profitably, and which ended up making people worry about article count limits and go to ridiculous lengths to keep their sites under 500 pages. It wasn't fair to sell a crippled version of the product at a price that we simply couldn't maintain, so we're going to stop selling the Home Edition altogether, and eat the cost of moving every existing Home Edition user to the Professional Edition. We also lowered the price of the Professional Edition a smidgen (to $299), and introduced a lower cost Contributor Edition for team members who don't actually design sites, they just maintain them.
If you still haven't seen them, Michael and I made two movies (in Flash format) with demos of the latest features. Bring popcorn! These movies were made with TechSmith's Camtasia Studio, which worked like a charm (and no, you cynical freaks, they are not paying me to say that. Sheesh.) If you're completely new to CityDesk check out this online demo (I, for one, can't bear to hear my own voice so you'll have to watch it without me.)
You're reading Joel on Software, stuffed with years and years of completely raving mad articles about software development, managing software teams, designing user interfaces, running successful software companies, and rubber duckies.

LOUDON, N.H. – The elephant has finally left the room.
Kevin Harvick and Tony Stewart put to rest a large chunk of speculation regarding the duo's future working relationship in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.
Harvick and Stewart confirmed Friday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway that a primary sponsor has been signed and that a number has been chosen for the car that Harvick will drive for Stewart-Haas Racing next season.
Budweiser, which has sponsored Harvick's No. 29 car at Richard Childress Racing since 2011, will remain on the hood of Harvick's car at SHR, which will bear No. 4.
Harvick took over at RCR the week after Dale Earnhardt died in a crash on the last lap of the 2001 Daytona 500. After 13 seasons, Harvick wanted a change of scenery.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed, although contracts of this nature have recently been for three years plus an option. Stewart said the team is actively discussing talking to potential sponsors for the other 16 races and that agreements should be made soon.
"It's just like when you show up to the same desk for 12 or 13 years, you're like, 'Man, I need a new desk,'" Harvick said. "Or you need to change the pictures on the wall. It's just something where you just want a change of pace to do something."
Ryan Newman, who has driven the No. 39 car for SHR since its inception in 2009, will be free to seek other employment for 2013, as Stewart and co-owner Gene Haas are not ready to expand to four cars. Danica Patrick drives SHR's No. 10 machine.
Just as when Stewart reached out to his close friend Newman when starting the team, his personal relationship with Harvick made him the first driver on his wish list this time.
"The No. 1 thing when Ryan and I spoke was that our friendship will not change, that this was a business decision that was Gene's as well as mine," Stewart said. "It was a hard decision, but there's a personal side and it was a business side."
Late last season, ESPN's Marty Smith reported the Harvick-to-SHR move. Prior to the season-opening Daytona 500, those reports were confirmed. Since then, speculation over further details of the agreement followed both Harvick and Stewart.
In order for all parties to move on with the 2013 season, the decision was made to confirm the sponsorship and number agreements as soon as they were finalized.
"When we did the deal with SHR, knowing we had to move forward for a year, we wanted to make sure that we did a good job with RCR," Harvick said. "It's nice to be able to be in a position to not have to go out and be a part of that whole process and be able to focus on racing the car and getting the performance and doing the things you need to do at RCR."
Harvick is in a similar position to what Matt Kenseth was last year. Kenseth announced early in the 2012 season that he would leave Roush Fenway Racing at season's end, yet the supposed "lame duck" driver and team still had a great year and made the Chase for the Sprint Cup.
Entering Sunday's Camping World RV Sales 301, Harvick is fourth in the points with two victories. He has finished the last eight races in the top 10.
"This year, that consistency piece has come back," Harvick said.
Stewart has driven numerous NASCAR Nationwide Series races in cars co-owned by Harvick and his wife Delana. Now, the roles will be reversed.
Harvick took a leap of faith by signing to drive a yet-to-be-sponsored car, but he also had faith that SHR would take the proper steps toward securing that funding. It was not assumed that Budweiser would simply follow Harvick to his new team.
"It's obviously a great brand," Harvick said. "To be a part of the brand has been a lot of fun. Not only do they sell beer, but they activate like nobody else."

It is a co-ed long-term treatment center. The mission of the academy says that they aim at guiding young people towards life of excellence, enhancing leadership quality and services. Students are taught life skills, how to handle responsibility and several ethical works and also receive therapeutic and clinical services as per their needs.

Gatehouse academy is a drug rehab center for adults of age group 17 to 25. Dual diagnosis treatment facility is offered to addicted teens. An integrated approach of natural environment along with assistance of staff is provided by the center.

My insurance company refused to fund any part of my payment after reviewing the qualifications of the staff. I paid anyway as I believed the stuff I read on their web site. Probably the biggest mistake I ever made with regard to my son's mental health. These people did an incredible disservice to him. In my opinion they are interested solely in their bottom line to the exclusion of all else.

Gate House Academy states in its application that it is not a drug treatment center and it is also not much of a school(all online classes) So what is it? I went there for 12 months and the only explanation I can think of is that it is a group of unqualified people posing as a treatment center and absolutely incapable of providing the help needed to treat persons suffering from addiction. It is all just a front so they can make money. And the fact that they are not technically a treatment facility means that they do not receive any sort of regulation by the Govt. Do not get scammed by these liers. It also has some weird cult connections too. Do your own research and find out for yourself. or go here and read for yourself: http://www.heal-online.org/gatehouse.htm

Be VERY CAREFUL about sending someone to this place. I was a resident at Gatehouse Academy for a year, and had a much different experience there than that advertised by their website and marketing staff. I am angered to see Gatehouse's website speaking of the facility's "positive peer culture," because I encountered the exact opposite. Almost all of the other residents there wanted nothing to do with recovery or personal growth. The very few that expressed an earnest desire to learn about or better themselves were alienated and harassed by the other residents. Indeed many of the group therapy sessions and so-called AA meetings revolved around making fun of or bitching about the other occupants. I have rarely been in a social environment more toxic than that which I experienced during my year at Gatehouse. I am also very unhappy with my experience with the majority of Gatehouse's clinical and non-clinical staff. A Gatehouse Academy review, which is clearly written by the company's marketing department (like most of the other "reviews" that one finds online about this institution), states that "[Gatehouse Academy] shuns the sweeping generalizations that are often par for the course in rehab facilities [. . .] Instead of forcing a concept of "what addiction is" upon their residents" ("Gatehouse Academy Reviews, a Unique Approach; http://gatehouseacademyreviewsonline.com/). However my experience there was that nothing could be further than the truth. During my year stay there, it seemed that almost every resident was put on the medication Seroquel, which is intended primarily for use in patients with schizophrenia. The medication was incredibly sedative, and I remember chunks of every day when I felt barely able to move or stay awake. As neither I nor these other residents were schizophrenic or psychotic, it is completely beyond me as to why we were put on such a powerful tranquilizing medication. Each resident that ended up in the facility was deemed a drug addict, and the motto was, "if you ended up here, you are an addict/alcoholic." Largely emphasized was that we all had the same problem and that Alcoholics Anonymous was the only real way to solve it. Alone time was regarded with suspicion, because it was viewed as "isolative" and unhealthy (never mind introverted people). Thinking too hard, questioning things, and even speaking in an educated manner was "intellectualization," an inherent threat to recovery and to the Gatehouse community. During my stay three residents that spoke in an educated manner were put on a week-long ban from talking and were made to dumb down! Needless to say, a proportion of the staff at Gatehouse are truly well-meaning people who want to help young adults facing drug addiction or alcoholism. And it is very possible that the program has changed since I attended several years ago. But overall there was a frightening lack of accountability regarding the actions of the overall program or of the staff. Resident's calls and letters to parents are censored—as are letters or calls from parents to residents. Any complaints that a resident has about the place are regarded as manipulation, and a parent's willingness to listen is labeled as codependency. We residents grew to tolerate any of staff's behavior (no matter how crazy or destructive), because we knew no other choice. In conclusion, do not believe at face value everything that is advertised about Gatehouse Academy. It is very possible that the program has changed, but do a great deal of research and thinking before sending your child there.

I was a resident and staff memeber at Gatehouse Academy. I entered with no hope and very little desire to live. I initially hated it since I was asked to participate and take responsibility for myself. There were people there who cared enough to push us to do better. I credit Gatehouse with helping to save my life. I believe strongly in what it does. That is why I chose to work there. Many of the people who work there are graduates. That is part of its power. People who have had their lives changed passing on what they have experienced.

As a parent of a young man now several years into recovery, I can recommend Gatehouse without reservation. The program engages young people with a combination of staff experience and peer reinforcement that create an incredible community. Our entire family benefited from the 12 month program.

My daughter has been there for 13 months, and is about to leave in a few days. I have visited 3 times during the year, for the family workshops. I have been 100% impressed by the challenging but supportive environment, the caring and skilled staff, the quality of the therapeutic program, the physical outlets provided (yoga, an equine program, track) and the helpfulness of the family program. The program is layered, and each layer is skillfully integrated with every other layer. My daughter has struggled, and grown,over this year, and it looking forward with eagerness to her next step. BTW, she has a "dual diagnosis" (mental health/chemical addiction) -- but what some reviews said about "medicating" residents seems totally inaccurate,as the effort has been,over the year, to gradually reduce the medications she was taking when she entered and making her less dependent on psychopharmaceuticals. As far as money goes, yes it as expensive and difficult for me, but Gatehouse administration worked with me every step of the way to make it possible. As far as I am concerned, Gatehouse is the best!

My 19 year old son just graduated from Gatehouse Academy in December, 2011 after spending a year in treatment at the facility. This excellent program took a boy who had lost all hope and ambition and gave us back a man who believes in himself and has goals and aspirations and a positive future ahead. My son and our whole family concur that Gatehouse saved his life. He left home feeling and looking dark, sullen and hopeless. He now radiates from within and is genuinely happy for the first time in years. We can't believe this is the same person. My husband and I feel fortunate to have witnessed this transformation in so many of the residents. It has been a joy to behold! Among the many gifts we received from Gatehouse,our famly relationship has been restored; our son's mental health issues were treated with expertise and professionalism; our lives have taken a new and positive direction. Today for the first time in years, our son's mental health is stable. We attribute this to the assessment and accurate diagnosis made while in Gatehouse, and to the expert medication management. The program is genius, the staff is top-notch, and the parent education component is excellent and so valuable. The self-respect that Gatehouse residents take from the program is worth a million dollars and is life-changing. My whole family is so thankful for this program and would wish that all struggling teens could go to Gatehouse Academy.

What I find disturbing is that so may people continue to endorse Gatehouse after it clearly violates ethical and legal standards in the business (Although I know that many employees of Gatehouse were required to post positive reviews online, so some of these reviews may be a reflection of those) Fact: Multiple staff members engaged in illegal activity (smoking crack, having sex with residents including underage 17 year olds) Fact: The company's CEO, Kent Sherman, was involved with an illegal operation that included narcotics, weapons misconduct, and money laundering. In August 2011 he was convicted of two counts solicitation of a crime and one count of illegal enterprise. Fact: The company ignored safety standards of their campus and allowed the facilities to deteriorate at the expense of residents' safety (bunk beds fell down, one young man had to receive staples in his head...) I could go on and on. Like all parents with a child with a substance abuse problem, I sent my child to Gatehouse because I was desperate and scarred. I believe the facility took advantage of my emotions and played on my fears so that I would pay month after month to keep my child there. Had I known at the time what was going on I would have NEVER sent my child there to begin with. The facility has closed down, but I believe it is important that the truth of what occurred there be made public so that these abuses do not happen again. Please, people. It's great for everyone who got or stayed sober at Gatehouse, but the ends do not justify the means. The world deserves to hear the truth and these violations of professional and ethical standards are simple unacceptable.

GHA Involved with money laundering and fraud. Mass HIPPA violations. So if your kid went their well hundreds of other people also know along with their medical information. PLace was shut down soon after Kent Sheram was busted. The thing is he never served a day in jail. What a shame. That man stole hundreds of thousands of dollars while smoking crack. He is probably finishing up his probation by now. I wonder if he still works in treatment. He also had some help but the other staff members never got in trouble. THe year i spent their was mostly negative to say the least.

The Devils showed plenty of fight in their 5-2 victory over the Islanders.
At the end of the second period, defenseman Bryce Salvador pounded Tim Jackman in a lopsided fight that left Jackman needing stitches under his right eye.
Then, at 3:22 of the third, defenseman Mike Mottau came across the ice and elbowed Frans Nielsen in the head. Nielsen landed hard and his right knee seemed to buckle underneath his weight. He had to be helped off the ice.
The Devils have always been tough - but was this a little much? Or is this the type of play this team needs more of?

I was 9 years old when my dad, Ross F. Williams, went off to WWII and I became the "man" of the house. I was the oldest son. Dad moved us off our Adirondack farm in Giffords Valley before he left so Mom and the four children, at that time, would be safe in the village of Northville. He rented a duplex on Bridge Street just behind the school so we were convenient to everything that we needed. We could walk to the grocery stores, the dime store, the drug store, and the Star Theater, as well as school and church. With the wartime shortage of gas and tires, it was a good idea not to use a car unless necessary. We had an old DeSoto.
Our home was heated with wood stoves so every time Dad got a furlough, we borrowed a truck and picked up free slabwood from the Adirondack sawmills. We then had to chop and pile it in the back yard so I could carry it into the woodbox as needed. Part of being the responsible "man" of the house, it was important that I kept the woodbox filled with wood.
I never knew too much about Dad's military service; he never said too much about it. When his veteran friends came to visit after the war, I would sit and listen to pick up pieces of the story. Dad had joined the Seabees (C.B. - Construction Battalion) and because of the shortage of bases, he was transferred to the Marines for awhile. He once told me that he enjoyed his time in the Marines; he got to become an instructor on the rifle range because of his experience with guns while growing up.
Once the U.S. Navy Seabees got organized, Dad became part of the Philippine Asiatic Pacific/Liberation. The 30th Battalion was formed in October 1942 and he was assigned to join them. They trained at Camp Thomas, Rhode Island. His rank was MoMM1/C, a heavy equipment operator. Their job was to follow the troops and to construct air strips and living quarters.
Fortunately, my mother, Laura, gave me Dad's 375-page Navy Yearbook, THE 30TH LOG, a "battalion biography." Published in 1945, it covers the work of the Battalion from October 10, 1942 to VJ Day, September 2, 1945. The history in the 30th Log indicated that Dad was stationed on Calicoan Island, a half-mile wide by eight-miles long piece of land just below Samar in the Philippine Islands.
The story of life in the Philippines is too long to tell here, but the major problem was a shortage of drinking and cleaning water. Accommodations were limited to crowded tents and mattresses on plywood floors to keep out the jungle grasses and a variety of insects. The temperature shot up to 135 degrees, a temperature unknown to an Adirondack woodsman. Supplies were in short supply and it took some time to make their wartime home more livable. The "saltwater soap" also failed to clean clothes or bodies.
Dad kept a small "Seabee Log," recording some of the events in his WWII career. It began at Camp Peary, Virginia, and contained a list of 10 parts of the "physical drill under arms." The 15-step "grass drill" was next. In November 1944, he recorded boarding the U.S.S. NAPA and heading for Pearl Harbor-"a most discouraging trip, held in the com. Department by 'GQ' and other petty regulations."
By 1945, he was on the O.S.S. Cottle, traveling the Pacific for three months, sometimes "packed in like sardines in a can." In October, they were on the U.S.S. Rawlins to get back to the United States. His daily entries in the log were about the weather, the food and how anxious he was to get home. By Nov. 7, they reached the Golden Gate Bridge. The final trip was across the country by train and they reached Penn Station on Nov. 15. They enjoyed some coffee and doughnuts with the Red Cross at the Lido Bar. His notations ended with "so I took a shower and went to bed:" his wartime life was at an end. Now, our family could get back to our Adirondack farm and I could become a normal farm boy once again.

This was... random. I suppose it was ok, and the animation was decent enough but it didn't make any kind of logical sense. Why was some guy called Goldman going around dressed as Santa giving presents? Why was Hitler even in this, and how did he know Sqeezy was even stealing presents? What is going on here? I did catch the little Simpsons cameo though!

Oracle Database Appliance Unplugged @ Northern California Oracle Users Group
By Tammybednar-Oracle on May 24, 2012
The Oracle Database Appliance is Simple, Reliable, & Affordable. Still skeptical about the 'reliability'?
Join Sohan DeMel, Vice President, Product Strategy and Business Development, at the Northern California Oracle Users Group to demonstrate the fault-tolerance of the Oracle Database Appliance.
A recent addition to Oracle's Engineered System category, the Oracle Database Appliance offers customers a fully integrated system of software, servers, storage and networking in a single box that delivers high availability database services for a wide range of applications. Oracle Database Appliance has fault-tolerance built-in: The hardware is fully redundant. Oracle RAC protects against server failure and database instance failure. Oracle ASM triple mirroring maintains data redundancy. Storage multi-pathing and network bonding are built-in. In this demo-based presentation, members of the audience will be invited on-stage to literally unplug the Oracle Database Appliance – pull-out power cords, pull-out network cords, pull-out server trays, and pull out disks, all while the database is processing SwingBench transactions on the big screen.
When: May 31, 2012
Where: The NoCOUG Spring Conference
Go to the NoCoug.org web site for more information and to RSVP to this very exciting presentation and conference!

Virginia F. Ake
Virginia Heaton (Fouse) Ake, 91, Martinsburg, passed away Tuesday morning at Nason Hospital, Roaring Spring, after a heart attack.
She was born at home on the Fouse farm on Clover Creek, daughter of Adam Irving and Xenia (Heaton) Fouse. She married Denver K. Ake, who died in 2007.
Their four children are Donna Burkholder and companion, David Witmer, of Ephrata/Lancaster, Ken Ake and wife, Dianne, of Martinsburg, Kay Smith and husband, John, of Carrollton, Va., and Ruth Russell and husband, James, of Lexington, Ky.
Virginia greatly enjoyed her nine grandchildren, three step-grandchildren, 15 great-grandchildren and four step-great-grandchildren. She leaves two sisters-in-law: Arlene Brubaker of Martinsburg and Freda Ake in Virginia.
Virginia was a 1939 graduate of Morrison Cove High School and studied nursing at Presbyterian Hospital in Philadelphia. Much of her married life was spent assisting her husband on the Ake farm on Piney Creek. Denver and Virginia moved to Martinsburg in 1976. She was employed for many years with PennDOT at the Hollidaysburg office and New Enterprise Stone & Lime Co. After she and her husband retired, they enjoyed traveling throughout the U.S., particularly in their motor home.
Virginia was raised in the Evangelical and Reformed Church tradition, both in Beavertown and Martinsburg. She was a member of Memorial Church of the Brethren, Martinsburg. She devoted her time to family, church activities, friends and the D. Merle Tipton VFW Post 43 Auxiliary, Martinsburg, of which she was a past president.

The "holiday" movie has taken on a much different tone this year, as movie critic Mike Scott pointed out in his holiday movie guide Tuesday. Check out his take on the upcoming film calendar, including his best bets, then let us know which movie is on your wish list.
Will you be looking for one of the 10 - yes, 10 - Louisiana-shot films, such as "Django Unchained" (pictured above)? One of the blockbusters, "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" or "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn 2"? How about one of the award contenders, "Lincoln," "The Sessions," or "Silver Lining Playbook"?

In 1921 Margaret Gorman won the very first Miss America competition wearing only a bathing suit. She was deemed the winner based on the loudness of the gathered crowd at the boardwalk of Atlantic City and points given by local artists. After Margaret's win president of the American Federation of Labor, Samuel Gompers, told the New York Times, "She represents the type of womanhood America needs — strong, red blooded, able to shoulder the responsibilities of homemaking and motherhood. It is in her type that the hope of the country rests."
The 93rd Miss America Competition will air this Sunday at 9pm Eastern on ABC. The 2013 show will be broadcast live from Atlantic City, returning to where the pageant began after several years in Las Vegas. The big story within this year's contestants is that one of the women vying for the crown (Miss Kansas) will not be covering up her tattoos before walking onto the stage. Pageant officials explain, "we've probably had girls with tattoos before who chose to cover them and she's chosen not to cover them."
Pageant Chairman and CEO Sam Haskell is thrilled to have the pageant back in Atlantic City as he considers Miss America to be a child of the city. "When you have thousands of people from all over the country coming to be here and you see a broadcast that features Atlantic City all the way through it, you see a parade that's going to be televised for the very first time about Atlantic City and all the excitement in Atlantic City, it's going to make Atlantic City look very relevant."
Sam also says another special accomplishment of this year is that 35% of the contestants are in medical, science, technology, engineering or math fields. It is because of this great percentage that the organization has partnered with the U.S. Secretary of Education and Department of Education to establish specific STEM related scholarships. Sam shares, "we're going to be awarding two $5,000 scholarships separate and apart from the Miss America scholarships based on how they place and finish in the competition — two $5,000 STEM scholarships to those who are most outstanding in that area. The Department of Education is coming down to judge those contestants and be a part of that with us."
Earlier this week the Miss America Organization announced Miss California Crystal Lee and Miss Mississippi Chelsea Rick were the recipients of the STEM scholarships.
I try to watch the competition every year and I am not sure I can explain why. I have never been a pageant girl nor have I haver aspired to be one, but there is something about the ceremony of it all, the tradition, that I enjoy. There are parts of the contest I enjoy more than others (I'll take the talent competition over the swimsuit strut any day!) but what I honestly love the most is seeing the face of the winner the moment she realizes she will wear the crown.
The very first Miss America winner was vocal about her dislike of the competition in later years, but I wonder how she would have felt about the advances the organization has made recently.
Miss America Winners from 1921 to today:
Then and Now 1 of 21
The Miss America Pageant has come a long way since 1921. The official site for Miss America shares, "The Miss America Organization is one of the nation's leading achievement programs and the world's largest provider of scholarship assistance for young women. Last year, the Miss America Organization and its state and local organizations made available more than $45 million in cash and scholarship assistance."
Margaret Gorman | 1921 2 of 21
In 1921 Margaret won "The Most Beautiful Bathing Girl in America" contest in Atlantic City, NJ. That contest is what led to Margaret being named the first Miss America. Later in her life Margaret came to despise the contest that made her famous. She told an interviewer in 1980, "I never cared to be Miss America. It wasn't my idea. I am so bored by it all. I really want to forget the whole thing."

- Get outdoors.
- Eat a light lunch.
- Eat a satisfying dinner.

Marian Bergeron | 1933 4 of 21
Marian is the youngest winner of Miss America. She won the contest at age 15. Reports from the Miss America organization share, "There was so much confusion during and after the vote tabulations that nobody informed Marian she had won. She was unaware of her victory until the dressing assistants placed the banner on her."

Patricia Donnelly | 1939 5 of 21
Patricia entered the Miss Michigan contest on a dare! After she won Miss America the Wayne County scholarship program says she "toured the country making personal appearances prior to World War II, and speaking to audiences around the nation about patriotism and boosting the country's morale. "

Venus Ramey | 1944 6 of 21
Venus, crowned Miss America in 1944, wrote a pretty intense letter to Miss America 1998 to let her know she did not agree with her platform. She begins the letter: "Dear Kate, Now that you wear the crown of Miss America 1998, we have something in common. I wore that crown in 1944. So I hope you won't mind a few words to the wise, from an old bathing-suit bimbo to a young one." What follows can only be defined as a class of the times.

Lee Meriwether | 1955 7 of 21
After Lee was crowned Miss America she landed a job on The Today Show and began to study acting in New York. She then went on to have a very successful acting career. You may know her as the very first Catwoman in the original Batman movie.

Vonda Kay Van Dyke | 1965 9 of 21
The Miss America organization has declared Vonda to be a woman who achieved many firsts on the show. "She was the first to appear on stage in talent competition as a ventriloquist, the first to speak of her faith on national television, and the first and only winner to be named Miss Congeniality."

Susan Perkins | 1978 12 of 21
In 2010 Susan gave advice to a Miss Ohio contestant who was about to embark on her own Miss America journey. "She should be well-read and well-informed with regard to what is happening in our country and the world today. If her mindset is that she is competing with herself to do her best job in every aspect of the competition then she will truly enjoy and benefit from the experience whatever the outcome."

Kirsten Haglund | 2008 19 of 21
The 2008 Miss America show was the result of a complete makeover. In the weeks leading up to the show TLC aired a reality show featuring the contestants.

Teresa Scanlan | 2011 20 of 21
Teresa had just graduated high school before entering the Miss America pageant. At 17 years old, she was the youngest winner of Miss America since the 1930's. Now a sophomore at Patrick Henry College Teresa is focused on learning how to connect. "I'm actually a very introverted person, and so when it comes to person-to-person interaction and not having my title as Miss America precede me… it scares me to death."

Mallory Hagan | 2013 21 of 21
Mallory is about to end her reign as the current Miss America. She recently spoke to Sasha Goldstein from the NY Daily News about responsibilities of role models. "You're responsible for the people who look up to you, who need a good role model. Miss America has always been "the ideal" but I've tried to be a good role model in that I've tried to just be myself and hopefully in some way give the girls who look up to me and follow me permission to do the same."

Cruise the streets in style with the latest offering from KHS bikes in the form of the 2011 KHS Urban Soul, which boasts of great looking upgrades from the previous year's model.
This city bike has several upgrades that have not yet been seen on other city bikes from KHS. It carries a double butted Cromoly frame and a strong fork with the help of a high tensile steel straight leg. It also uses a threadless 1-1/8 headset and Weinmann SP17 rims.
Surprisingly, the 2011 version of the Urban Soul doesn't have any front and rear derailleur nor does it come equipped with shifters. But It does have a neat looking crankset in the form of a cotterless Alloy crankset paired up with a KMC Z30 chain and a sealed cartridge bottom bracket.
Alloy is one key element of this bike as it is an integral piece on some components of the bike, including the bike stem, brakes and even the hubs. The bike comes in two distinct colors—infinite black and burgundy. The frame sizes are available in varying sizes ranging from small to extra-large. It is also modestly priced at $480.

The Diana was supposed to arrive early Wednesday morning; however, it was delayed, as so many Lakers have been, due to Lake Superior's ice.
Close to 1,000 ships visit the Port of Duluth-Superior each year, moving roughly 40 million tons of cargo made up of iron ore, coal, grain, limestone, cement, salt and more, according to the Duluth Seaway Port Authority.

I've hit on a combo that has worked out very well, 6oz of Greek yogurt and a whole avocado. I smush up the avocado and blend it right into the yogurt. Grosses out my coworkers but I love it and it fills me up for a long time.
