Freeman heads back to Louisville
By Mark Sheldon / MLB.com
CINCINNATI -- To make room for the callup of starting pitcher Tony Cingrani on Thursday, the Reds optioned reliever Justin Freeman to Triple-A Louisville.
Freeman was called up on Monday for the first time in his career when ace Johnny Cueto went on the disabled list with a strained right lat muscle.
During the Reds' 11-2 win over the Phillies, Freeman made his Major League debut and gave up two runs in the eighth inning. Freddy Galvis' jumped a first pitch for a two-run home run.
"I'm glad we got him into the game last night. I hate to have a kid come up here and go right back without pitching," Reds manager Dusty Baker said. "He learned something. He thought with the score at 11-0 that the guy was just going to take one. He learned the hard way. It was a good lesson for him."
Cozart is thriving in the two-hole
CINCINNATI -- Sometimes it's hard to find the catalyst for a hot streak, and sometimes it's remarkably easy. Reds shortstop Zack Cozart falls into the latter category.
Cozart has taken off at the plate since returning to the second spot in the lineup. In that spot, he entered Thursday batting .385 (10-for-26) with two home runs in six games. He had hit safely in four of his last five, with a pair of three-hit games -- including during Wednesday's 11-2 thumping of the Phillies.
"I'm just familiar with it," Cozart said of the two-hole. "Any time you're hitting in front of Joey [Votto], you're going to get better pitches to hit, too. They don't want to put me on and have him coming up."
While he was slotted as the No. 7 hitter, Cozart batted .097 (3-for-31) with two homers in eight games.
"I'm glad to see him get going because he was starting to press," Reds manager Dusty Baker said.
Last season, Cozart didn't have his fourth homer until May 21. He also batted .324 in his 27 games as the No. 2 hitter.
"I guess a lot of people didn't realize I hit well in the two-hole last year," Cozart said. "So far, so good this year. Hopefully I can keep it going."
Votto is still productive despite slow start
CINCINNATI -- It's not often that a player who reaches bases in more than half of his plate appearances is viewed by some as struggling, but most players don't hit like Joey Votto. The Reds first baseman entered Thursday batting .277 with one homer, three RBIs and 14 strikeouts. But helped by a Major League leading 22 walks, he carried a league-best .521 on-base percentage and has reached in every game in which he's played.
While the Reds banged out 15 hits in Wednesday's 11-2 win over the Phillies, Votto was the only starter to go hitless. He was 0-for-3 and was hit by a pitch.
"Joey did what I used to do. If we get 18 hits, I'd get none. Always. Then we'd get six hits and I'd get four," Reds manager Dusty Baker said. "It's hard to explain."
Through 15 games last season, Votto was batting .269 with one homer, eight RBIs, 14 walks, 16 strikeouts and a .418 on-base percentage. In May last season, he batted .355 with six homers.
Baker was not concerned about Votto.
"Everybody is going to have their turn. Joey is going to have his turn," Baker said. "Water seeks its own level. We just feel fortunate we have Brandon [Phillips] and some other guys playing well in that middle spot."
Mesoraco gets nod in Cingrani's starting debut
CINCINNATI -- For Tony Cingrani's first big league start on Thursday vs. the Marlins, Devin Mesoraco started behind the plate the second straight day. For much of last season, Mesoraco would catch back-to-back days and be off three straight days while primary catcher Ryan Hanigan started.
So far this season, Mesoraco has mostly caught when Mike Leake pitched. While Cingrani is around in place of injured ace Johnny Cueto, could the old system be returning? Manager Dusty Baker would not say.
"Ideally, I'd like the catcher that can help us that night," Baker said on Thursday. "I don't like either one of them off two days or three days. Ideally, we'd like a [Cardinals All-Star] Yadier Molina. That's what you'd like. That's why he's the best there is in the game. You'd like an offensive catcher that can shut down the running game and block balls in the dirt. Who knows? We might still have that but we've got what we've got right now."
Mesoraco was 2-for-4 with two doubles on Wednesday and came in batting .267. Hanigan has gotten off to a slow start, batting .086 (3-for-35) in 11 games. Last week, Hanigan took a foul ball off of his left thumb, which Baker thinks might be affecting him.
"It's a good thing for him to be off two days," Baker said. "That's a tough injury when you hurt your thumb and you're catching with your left hand. You get balls running on you, sinking on you and you can't catch every ball perfectly. He's injured but not hurt. I talked to him about how to handle it offensively. I had three hand operations. It's tough when you're hands hurt. It's something you take for granted."

Happy Thanksgiving wonderful readers. Today's quote is not a crochet quote per se but instead a quote about gratitude, as that seemed most appropriate for today.
"Gratitude takes three forms: a feeling in the heart, an expression in words, and a giving in return." -John Wanamaker
I like this quote because it shows how thankfulness goes beyond just being glad for what you have, even though that's a key part of it. In terms of crochet, I am thankful for the benefits it offers me, I try to let other people know about that through my blog, and I try to make sure that I am generous with my crochet skills and information to give back to others.
I am also thankful for all of you readers who make it possible for me to keep doing this!
Have you expressed your thankfulness today?

Spitfires' Excavation Date Set
The long-anticipated dig to unearth a cache of brand-new Spitfires that are believed to be buried in Burma is expected to start on Jan. 12, local press has reported. According to The Irrawaddy, archeologists first will spend about a week studying the site, then the digging can begin. Up to 36 pristine Spitfires, still in the packing crates they were delivered in near the end of World War II, are expected to be found. David Cundall, who located the burial site, said he has confirmed the airplanes are there by sending a camera through a borehole. "We went into a crate, you can see an object which resembles a Spitfire," he said.
The British troops buried the airplanes when they left Burma in 1945, Cundall said, because they didn't want to take them home but also didn't want anyone else to use them. The crates were tarred and placed on massive teak timbers to assist drainage, and a wooden roof was placed over the crates to protect them, Cundall said. The crates are buried about 30 feet deep in an area close to a runway at Mingaladon Airport in Rangoon. Cundall also has permission to excavate two other sites in Burma. At one of those sites, Cundall said he expects to find up to six crated Mark 8 Spitfires, a rare variation with only one copy still flying.

It worked well today, actually. The power supply kept it going all day as planned.
I think all of the soundtrack and all of Paramore's Riot came on, and only one song got skipped, which was "Ghosts Over Japan" by "From A Second Story Window", which I think is a quite mellow song.
It is weird hearing the songs piped through a generic sound system, though. Some songs just don't translate well.

Thursday November 11, 2010
He's a $20m-per-movie film star, but Brad Pitt has a rather less glamorous role at the moment.
The Benjamin Button actor has been doing odd jobs on his partner Angelina Jolie's directorial debut, currently filming in Hungary.
He was seen hauling round a large tripod, as well as photographing the fledgling director at work.
And while she puts in long hours on set, the actor keeps an eye on their family of six children, who are staying in a rented mansion in the capital and enrolled in school there.
Having thrown herself wholeheartedly into the project, Angelina must be enjoying Brad's support.
She wrote and is producing the film, a love story set during the Bosnian war.

Matt's Surprise Graduation Trip - Pretrip Details
Posted 23 May 2004 - 04:08 PM
Emily: Younger sister
Naomi: Youngest sister who's afraid of roller coasters
Mom & Dad: Those people with all the money.
Lodging: Hotel Royal Plaza at Downtown Disney
Duration: 5/26 - 5/29
Transportation: Song Airlines from Hartford, CT
I think there's very few things in life that someone can geniunely be absolutely thrilled about to go do or see. For me, its Disney World. Now it's no secret that I love going down but the rest of my family are well, "Less than thrilled" when it comes to the World. But as you can tell by the fact that this is a trip report, I will be going down but here's the whole story....
With my graduation from college coming up, my parents had wanted to know when I would be coming home to spend some time with them before I went out into the world and got my own life....something about "missing me" or something Anyway, as graduation got closer my mom told me numerous times to take the week after graduation off from work and come home. That alone wasn't suspicous but she kept making sure I had taken that week off.
So I began to suspect something was amiss. I mean, if they were going to buy me a car or something, they wouldn't need me to come home for a week , right? Well a few weeks passed and no mention of this week came up and I began to think "Great, they just want to see me!", as if that was a bad thing And then the other week we were in the car and I suggested a trip to WDW and a collective groan was heard from anyone. At that point I gave up pretty much all hope for a trip. And I did what anyone would do when they realize they're plans aren't going to go through....I began coming up with reasons why it would be silly to go down, such as "It'll be too hot" or "Connecticut is just like Florida....just less humid and more trees" and "I'll get by by just listening to alot of Disney World radio".
Last week my parents told me they'd be coming into the city and wanted to have lunch with me to celebrate my sister's birthday. So they suggested chinese and I brought them to a nice little place in Chinatown for lunch. We ate, yada, yada, yada, yada and it came down to time to leave. My dad asked for the check and I was busy making sounds like a beached whale because thats what I felt like after finishing my lunch and then tackling my sister's meal.
So the waiter comes with the check and distributes the fortune cookies but my dad objects and asks for all the fortune cookies as he feels he needs to distribute them for better luck. You might have nutty parents like my dad who have dillusions of grandeur but by now I've gotten used to and was more preoccupied with figuring out how to work the release on my new belt I bought So when I got mine, I said "Umm, mine's sort of broken" and my dad barked back "It doesn't matter....just open it". So I cracked the cookie, and took out the fortune. There were two lines of text and I read the first line, "Your greatest wish will come true..." and so I thought to myself, "Heh, maybe it'll say I'll get a new car or a trip to Disney". So I kept reading, "...you're going to Disney World!" So I looked pointed to my fortune and showed my mom, "Hey, look at my fortune. It says I'm going to...." and as I was talking everyone was laughing and then I noticed the fact the paper was cut unevenly and no one else was looking at there fortunes and realized what was going on. Needless to say, I was speechless. I just had the dumbest grin on my face and really couldn't believe what was going on.
So as it turns out, the day after my graduation ceremony we're flying down for 5 days (Wednesday - Sunday). So with just 2 or 3 days left before my trip, I have to go into overdrive to start planning. For people like me, I cant just go down on any random trip like I'm going to the supermarket or something. I need every aspect of the trip planned with backups, page references to the Unofficial Guide, a journal to write in, clothing to match the park you're going to, etc. As you can probably tell by now, I'm super excited and can't wait for another trip to the happiest place on earth.

An update of environmental and safety issues for your area.
By Marci Kinter
If you're not staying up to date on environmental and safety issues in your area/region, you're missing out on an opportunity to help your company. Establishing and maintaining a working knowledge base of environmental compliance and health-and-safety-related rules and regulatory updates can aid you in establishing a best-practices scenario for your operation while avoiding potential costly penalties. Plus, you'll put your company in better position to market itself as a green or sustainable operation to incoming clients.
What follows are just a few recent updates on legislation from around the country. Visit sgia.org for on-going regulatory updates.
Updating air regulations in Arizona
The Maricopa County Air Quality Department in Arizona has released a proposed directive updating Rule 337, Graphic Arts. This rule regulates emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and, most importantly, the department has included digital printing operations within its list of impacted facilities. And, this rule does impact manufacturers and suppliers to our industry.
While the proposal is not yet in effect, it's important to understand its ramifications. Digital printing has been defined as a method of printing that does not use a physical master, stencil or plates, but uses an electronic device to transfer variable data, in the form of an image, from a computer to a variety of substrates. Digital printing methods include, but are not limited to, inkjet printing, electrophotographic printing, dye-sublimation printing, thermal wax printing, and solid ink printing. The rule's requirements also apply to screen-printing operations.
Under the rule's provisions, manufacturers and suppliers are defined as any person offering for sale within Maricopa County any VOC-containing materials for use in graphic-arts operations. This would include both screen and digital operations. MSDSs or product data sheets are to be supplied showing the material name, manufacturer's name, specific mixing instructions, if applicable, and VOC content of the product as applied. It's important to note that the rule does exempt radiation-cured inks and coatings from coverage under the regulation.
For both screen and digital operations, there are proposed VOC-content limitations for ink systems as well as requirements to reduce VOC emissions from cleaning solvents through the use of work practices.

Diana Death Investigation Confirms Evidence Of Cover-up
The investigation into the death of Princess Diana, led by former Metropolitan Police Commissioner Lord Stevens, continues to confirm previously known facts and unearth new evidence proving that the August 31st 1997 crash was no accident.
As previously exhaustively documented by this website, the evidence pointing to murder is conclusive.
From the mid 1990's, Diana released a series of audio, videotapes and letters voicing her fears that she would be killed in a car crash made to look like an accident. In one letter, Diana stated, "My husband is planning 'an accident' in my car, brake failure and serious head injury in order to make the path clear for Charles to marry".
A brief summary of the known evidence is as follows.
- The Pont de L'Alma tunnel was crawling with secret service personnel from French and British intelligence. The driver of the Mercedes, Henri Paul is now confirmed as having worked for the French secret service.
- The unscheduled journey through the symbolic Pont de L'Alma tunnel (an ancient Pagan sacrificial site) took Diana and her boyfriend Dodi Al Fayed AWAY FROM their intended destination, Dodi's flat.
- Just before the car entered the tunnel every police radio in Paris mysteriously died, preventing a quick response which could have saved Diana's life.
- Just before the car entered the tunnel every security camera in the tunnel mysteriously died, preventing us from ever seeing footage of what caused the crash.
- Eyewitnesses reported snipers and gunfire within the tunnel.
- The crime scene was completely cleaned within hours of the crash, a policy totally anathema to standard preservation of any crime scene.
- Diana was still alive after the crash. Unexplained delays in getting her to the hospital, caused by the slow speed of the ambulance and the fact that it passed several nearer hospitals before reaching its destination, ensured Diana was dead upon arrival. A faster response could have saved her life.
- The Mercedes used to transport Dodi and Diana from the Ritz was mysteriously swapped for a car that had been stolen only weeks earlier.
- The foremost reason put forward to explain the 'accident' - that driver Henri Paul was dangerously drunk, has been thoroughly debunked by the camera footage of his behavior before the crash and the fact that the tests on Paul's blood were either faked or swapped with the blood of another dead man. Paul's liver showed no sign of alcohol abuse and his close friends and family said he rarely drank alcohol.
- Multiple eyewitnesses reported a mysterious flash of light immediately before the crash. Many insist that this was a laser directed at the driver to cause temporary blindness leading to the crash.
- The initial French investigation into the crash went to every length to ignore key evidence, intimidate eyewitnesses into silence and outright fabricate evidence.
It is important to stress that a detailed compendium of the evidence pointing to murder would fill a book on its own.
Diana was killed because she was pregnant with Dodi's child and the British Royal Family didn't want an Arab in their sacred bloodline. Diana was also becoming politically involved in the Middle East and the elite saw her as a loose cannon that could rally popular support around anything. Diana herself remarked to reporters that there would be 'a big surprise' from her a few days before her death.
Lord Steven's previous enquiry into Irish Republican Army terrorism unearthed links to British intelligence but seemed to disappear down the memory hole. Our hope is that the inquiry will have some genuine consequences for the criminals who assassinated 'England's Rose' and that it will prevent them from engaging in similar political hits in the future.

While sitting in the auto repair shop in Oakhurst, I had contacted Sheri Fenley (The Educated Genealogist) to see if we could meet up for a day or two. She had been unable to attend the Genealogy Jamboree in Burbank earlier in the month and since I was (sort of) in the area I thought I'd stop by to see her on my way north.
It was a relatively short drive of 150 miles or so from Yosemite to Stockton and I arrived at Sheri's place about noon on Saturday (June 26th). It was non-stop talking for the next 10 hours and most of the day on Sunday! What did we talk about? Our families and Genealogy, of course!
On Sunday, I joined Sheri and a few members of her APG Chapter for lunch and a behind the scenes tour of the San Mateo Historical Museum Archives in Redwood City. It was nice to meet some of her cohorts and see the resources available in San Mateo. Sheri wrote a little about that excursion.
Thank you, Sheri, for being a gracious hostess. I very much enjoyed meeting your family and spending time with you. Thank you, Thank you!
