8-19-09 PNC Park
I could've taken my choice of going to Cleveland, or staying in Pittsburgh today. The weather in Cleveland was forecast to be very nice, with a 5% chance of rain. Pittsburgh was predicted to have a 50% chance. I had to make a decision where I was going by 1 PM. After that time passed, I wouldn't be able to make it to Cleveland by 3:30, thereby leaving me with PNC Park as my only option.
At 12:45 PM, this was the hourly weather forecast. It looked like there may have been a chance to at least get some BP in. I figured I'd save the gas and take the chance.
Wow, were they ever wrong.
It started pouring around 2:30ish, and didn't stop.
McCutchen looked into the "crowd," locked onto my location, and tossed a ball in my direction. The ball was coming in high. I had to jump up to make the catch. It was ball #1. My
streak had been preserved and extended. What a relief.
I spent the rest of the night going back and forth from right field to left field to center field (on occasion), trying to get another warm up ball.
Brandon Moss picked me out in the 6th inning and threw a ball right at me. The ball was intended for me. However, some random guy without a glove came running across the row and intercepted the ball. There was nothing I could do. Here he is:
Who sits like that at a baseball game anyway?
After the game was over (the Pirates won – finishing a sweep of the Brewers), I went down to the dugout. There, I watched the umpire toss a ball to a kid, which he dropped (the ball fell to the tunnel below and disappeared). Then, the umpire tossed a second ball to the same kid, which he also dropped down into the tunnel. What a waste. Luckily for Butterfingers, Bob Davidson came along and got one of the balls out of the tunnel and handed it to him.
I ended up with one ball, but did meet two readers of this blog after the game. I had noticed them prior to the game with their gloves and roster complete with player numbers and thinking, "They're more prepared than I am." I asked if they had snagged any balls on the day, and gave a ball away (one of the extras I bring from home) to one of the girls who had been shut out. There's nothing worse than trying for a ball all day and coming up empty.
Here's the McCutchen ball:
Which I somehow managed to screw up and number off-center. Argh.

7-20-09 PNC Park
There was some rain forecast for today, but when I arrived at the ballpark at 3:55, the sun was shining, and there were only a few measly clouds in the sky.
While standing in line, I noticed a Brewers fan who randomly had a MLB baseball. He didn't have a glove or a bag or anything. He had just walked up from the Riverwalk area. Had he just gotten a ball out by the river? Possibly.
Rather than standing there, I decided to head down to the Allegheny River and see if I could get on the board before the gates even opened. There is some tall grass landscaping on a slope that leads down to a 20 foot wide walkway which borders the river. Occasionally balls will get stuck in there that get hit out of the stadium or bounce on the stadium. I looked, but found nothing.
I stood outside the stadium until 4:50, when I returned to line. There was only one ball that I saw that had a realistic chance. I caught it out of the corner of my eye and watched it hit the top of the Clemente wall and stay in the ballpark. Like clockwork, within a minute, an usher appeared and picked up the ball.
When I returned to the line at 4:50, it began to drizzle. Great. Just great.
The drizzle was persistant, and was rather annoying. I was worried that the groundscrew would put the tarp on the field and batting practice would be canceled. Luckily, this wasn't the case. The rain was light enough that it allowed BP to continue.
I got ball #1 of the day from Joel Hanrahan. He fielded a ball, and didn't throw it back towards the infield, so I stood in the front row with my glove up for about a minute. He finally decided he didn't want the ball anymore, and fired it at me. It was a little high and away, but I was on the board.
I got ball #2 from Mike Defelice. I remembered Shawn from Milwaukee giving me the tip of calling him Deefer. It worked.
There wasn't a ton of home runs hit. And its a shame too, because there weren't many people there during the first 30 minutes of season ticket holder time only.
Game: 3 balls (1 hit, 2 thrown)
Season: 238 balls (125 hit, 78 thrown, 38 device)
Games: 49 games (5 of which didn't have BP)

5-16-09 PNC Park
There isn't much to write about.
Today was a Saturday and was Nate McLouth All Star bobblehead. The biggest crowd since opening day was expected. Here's the view from General Robinson and Federal Street.
The Pirates made an alteration to their batting practice gate opening starting today. The gates still opened at 4:30 on Saturday, but center field and right field didn't open until 5:30 PM, meaning all fans wanting to see batting practice would have to cram into 6 rows across 7 bleacher section in left field. Not good.
I got ball #1 from Matt Capps during the season ticket holder only portion of batting practice. That was it for the day. I got robbed twice by fans who were standing a row ahead of me. Had they not been there, I would've made the catches easily.
I made my first glaring error of the season. I had to jump for a home run ball, but I barely got off the ground. It hit my glove and some other fan got it. Rule of ballhawking, if a ball hits your glove, you should come away with the ball.
Left field was getting way to crowded, so I headed over to center field when it opened up. I still got shut out. None of the Rockies pitchers were showing me any love. Not surprising, since I got blacklisted yesterday by a jealous ballhawk snitch who told the Rockies I change my clothes to get more balls.
I tried for a ball at the bullpen and in the first inning from Nate McLouth. No luck.
Then, the rains came. The game was delayed for an hour and 37 minutes.
Game: 1 Ball (1 thrown)
Season: 119 Balls (51 hit, 54 thrown, 14 device)
Games: 23 games (20 with BP, 3 without)
Average: 5.17 Balls per Game
Career: 285 Balls
Attendance: 24,496
5-5-09 PNC Park
I attended today's game with my wife. I had to wait for her to get home for work, so we didn't get to the stadium until 4:55 PM, just in time before the 5 PM gate opening.
Usually I get 1 ball during the Pirates portion during the week (they only hit for about 10-15 more minutes after the gates open). Today, though, I had 4 balls by 5:04. I've never gotten off to a start like that in my life.
Ball #1 was tossed from Nyjer Morgan.
Game: 10 balls (4 hit, 4 thrown, 2 device)
Season: 84 balls (32 hit, 43 thrown, 9 device)
Games: 16 games (13 with BP, 3 without)
Average: 5.25 balls per game
Career: 250 balls
Attendance: 9,775
4-20-09 PNC Park
Today wasn't looking good. It had rained continuously throughout the day. When my wife and I left for the ballpark at 4:25 PM, it was still pouring. We went anyway.
For the first half hour, nothing was going on in the stadium. The tarp was on the field, and there were no players to be seen. There was a random ball sitting in the middle of center field, but it would've been impossible to reach with the glove trick.
At 5:30, the Pirates pitchers came out to stretch and toss. The rain had relented a bit. I went down and lined up behind Jeff Karstens, hoping for an overthrown. It didn't happen. I did manage to get Craig Hansen's warm up ball. It was ball #1.
The Pirates left the field, and once again, nothing was happening. We went over to right field to await the Marlins to come out and catch.
The weather still wasn't looking good. Water was starting to pond on the warning track.
Not too bad, I guess.
Game: 2 balls (2 thrown)
Season : 31 balls (13 hit, 12 thrown, 6 device)

- Days 4-5: At Sea/Unalaska
Watch from deck as Orion transits Baby Pass en route to the Baby Islands, just to the east of Unalaska. Dynamic tides here offer exciting potential to spot sea otters and fur seals, as well as rare seabirds. Arrive at Dutch Harbor, site of a fierce WWII battle and now one of the world's most important fishing ports. (B,L,D Daily)
- Days 6-10: Exploring the Aleutian Islands
These rugged and remote volcanic islands, which separate the North Pacific from the Bering Sea, support vast colonies of seabirds, and marine mammals such as northern fur seals, Steller sea lions, and a variety of whales. WWII history buffs will recognize names like Attu and Kiska, islands we'll explore during these days. (B,L,D Daily)
- Day 11: Petropavlovsk-Kamchatskiy, Russian Federation
After crossing the international date line, sail into the protected waters of Avacha Bay, and dock at Petropavlovsk-Kamchatskiy, the gateway to Kamchatka. Be on deck for the approach, as Koryaksky, Avachinsky, and Kozelsky volcanoes provide a stunning backdrop to this port city. (B,L,D)
- Day 12: Zhupanova River
This 100-mile long immaculate waterway in Kamchatka is teeming with enormous rainbow trout, salmon and char. Explore the lower river by Zodiac, in search of one of the world's largest raptors, plus numerous wading birds, other waterfowl, and spotted seals hauled out on sandbars. (B,L,D)
- Day 13-14: Commander Islands
Watch for whales, large rafts of sea otters, and countless nesting seabirds who inhabit the rich waters surrounding the Commander Islands. On land, visit the gravesite of Danish explorer Vitus Bering. Weather permitting, take Zodiacs to the fur seal rookery at Cape Severo-Zapadnyi. (B,L,D Daily)

Learn about Koryak reindeer-herding culture in either Tymlat or Ossora village. (B,L,D Daily)
- Day 19: Provideniya
At the western limit of the rich transboundary area known as Beringia, Provideniya is often called "The Gateway to the Arctic". It's also the administrative center where we will conduct our outbound clearance from Russia. Visit the excellent museum, and witness a traditional Yupik dance performance. (B,L,D)
- Day 20: At Sea, Crossing the Bering Strait
Spend the final day at sea, crossing one of the most iconic bodies of water on the planet. Linger on deck with binoculars in hand—the chances are high to spot whales and rare seabirds. (B,L,D)

- Posted by DrZarkov99 1 year, 1 month agoThe battle has finally begun against the "progress" of societal moral deterioration. SCOTUS ruled that a Christian baker had the right to refuse to provide a wedding cake to a gay couple. On another front, Oklahoma passed a law that said religious adoption organizations could not be forced to allow same sex partners adopt children.
We were very close to having incest and pedophilia declared "normal" and legal. I am convinced that if Hitlery had become president, she would have made sure to install extreme leftist judges that would have done their part to make it happen.
My oldest daughter was molested by her stepfather when she was a pre-teen, and I didn't hear about it until she was an adult, too late to do anything about it legally. It was only her request that I not go after the creep (mainly because she didn't want to see me go to jail for murder) that kept me caged. Foul beings like the one described in the article deserved to be put in a very deep, dark hole, never to see the light of day.
- It's kind of interesting that the very parties, biblically referenced and claimed to be ancestored from by the global delete were said to have been buried beneath the earth so as to never escape!
I think they would welcome some company by now.
- Me dino never thought about having sex with mt daughter, especially when I changed her diapers for some reason.
Later on, I never wanted to rape my ex either. In fact, she'd play hell trying to rape me. I. Was. So. Done.
A gay prison inmate once said, "OH, Officer Allosaurus, I have a crush on you."
Being a nice dino (also a well-trained one), I just shrugged, put on my I don't give a damn expression, and walked on.
He never spoke to me again. Oh, boo-hoo-hoo!
- So much for sexual harrassment !! Its easily taken care of without going to the media and courts.
It was probably a compliment from the gay dude, anyway. Gay people just dont say that to anyone.
- That was during the 80s when was fit as a fiddle and dating gals only up until I met my future ex in the latter half of that decade. .
Now me dino is just an over the hill limping along fat guy who could not run if my life depended on it.
But I can still shoot straight or why I concealed carry pack going places.
- But not only this creature thinks it's normal...the global delete thinks, so as well!
- One of many reasons to blow my dino nose on globalists and the globalism concept.
It's all about the Marxist mental malfunction called socialism anyway.
- Did you read my second post Dino? (I know you commented there)...this creature, just like the globalist creatures are affected by the same diseases...they aren't human and the second post points that out but also ties into the observations I made in my work in 2010.
I no longer need to shoulder the burden of criticism and denial...there is now 2 of us that see it the same way...based on observable, repeatable facts.
This disease is spreading exponentially and is part and parcel, one of the causes for the worlds cultures going to hell. No longer can we just chalk it up to the nature of humans. It is Not in our nature to do such things.
- Recall your other post. If I seem somehow off, I've been coping with a health issue and other crap that's been going on.
Yeah, I've been noticing how the classic cultures of Europe in counties like Great Britain, Germany, France, Sweden and so forth are all flushing their uniqueness down the toilet of the sake of an invasive diversity.
Candidate The Evil Hag promised to, as the Obamanation succeeded somewhat--to cram invassive diversity down our American throats when she said, "I dream of open borders."
As if we haven't had enough terrorist attacks and crimes committed by illegal aliens. .
As for reading how the Brit government has been hammering freedom of speech, especially when it came to complaints about the Muslim swarms, name caller me dino has been thinking of calling the place The People's Socialist Kingdom Of Britannica. I've noticed that any country's whose name begins with "The People's" is for the people but not by the people/ "For" as in "now you're in for it." .
- Like this https://www.theatlantic.com/internati...
Get well soon!
- I think I'm getting better. But how do you get better when diagnosed for passing a kidney stone that has yet to pass? Never did that and it's supposed to hurt Ike the devil. I've yet to feel pain. Just been pushed around by my bladder (that easing off) and I'm getting tired and napping more.
- One would first have to delete at least 109 subversive versus to start with, that I know of.
- We want you well Dino...take care of that asp!..please
Yes...the "people's" are in for it..."Just Wait till their Daddy Marks", comes home...( Daddy Devil works too)
- I think he is a little off his rocker mentally too. I wouldnt want to be his daughter....
- That's exactly what my revived second post describes in gory detail.
- I would say that this dude's preferences are way out there- along with people who want sex with various animals. There are all sorts of unusual preferences.
- You can thank the Nephilim for that...they boogered EVERYTHING!
Apparently that demon seed lives on in creatures like this.
- Posted by GaryL 1 year, 1 month ago"It is normal for adult men to be attracted to underage girls" Well, yes but no. I can see the female form when developed young as attracting but what part of "Look but don't touch" do these sick bastards not understand. There is a major difference between finding young bikini clad girls on the beach attractive and being attracted to them. I am so glad I never had daughters simply because there are far too many men who identify as dogs.
- Unfortunately, too many are teachers, and act on it! We have female teachers doing the same, with both sexes. If only children could be left to enjoy a few years of innocence, something to fall back on as life gets complicated.
- Agreed!
- Worse, what if it were Hillary attracted and using your daughter, if you had one! It was likely little girls not little boys she went to Pdhophile island for, just like hubby on his trips before hers.
- I always saw billy bob as a pig squealer that is urged into action at the sounds of dueling banjo music.
- I don't think so, gary...but everyone sees this a bit differently. I see underage girls in a protected way and appreciate the innocence, wishing for them, never to be harmed.
NEVER anything sexual Ever enters my brain...I guess I shoulda been a Dad.
- Posted by GaryL 1 year, 1 month agoThat's just what I said Carl. The pedo in the article made the quote I posted. There are two problems as I see it. 15 year old and even younger girls can be every bit a woman and adult men can be every bit dogs and step way over the lines. We have laws here in this country I guess in most states it is 17 or 18 for the age of consent. Not so in many other cultures and I find this abhorrent.
- Ethical morality has been around a long time and our ancient biblical ancestors adopted that universal truth. It's observably the right way to act besides the fact that to ignore it brings on serious physical and mental consequences.
The addition of a consciously observant "Mind" can control one's temptations of his or her brain.
- Posted by $ exceller 1 year, 1 month agoThere is nothing unusual about this, coming from McAuliffe.
He is a Clinton operative who have been "operating" by fraud all his life. Remember, he secured the high end house for the Clintons in NY when they left the WH which enabled H Clinton to run for the Senate there. Never mind she said they were "broke". Paying for a property is only for ordinary people or to use H Clinton's word for the "deplorables".
Of course he feels at home with another criminal: business as usual.
- Posted by $ Solver 1 year, 1 month agoNext, the leftist's equality of outcome agendas will push for more pedophiles as Boy Scout troop leaders. Er, I mean, BSA scout leaders.
- One has to wonder...When did it become fashionable to make all manner of perversions, all transgressions against the natural order of things, acceptable...not to mention, celebrated!
- Posted by ycandrea 1 year, 1 month agoI also posted in the Gulch about this guy! Disgusting! https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/l...
- Boy...that one added insult to injury...my second post explains where this mania comes from.
+1 for your added post.
- Posted by Herb7734 1 year, 1 month agoCould it be that Terry McCauliffe is also a pedophile? Hmmm. Doesn't look good, Terry.
- More than likely...the perverse global delete's network of perverts is very large.
- Virginia is a "commonwealth"- basically socialist. Need we say more?
- And they take "Social" to a new level.
- In a way, its good that anyone can run for virginia government. That way we can see what the person is like BEFORE they manipulate their way into government and we see it LATER.
I wonder if this dude needs an "emotional support" hamster when he takes a plane trip...
- I think he'd prefer an emotional support Rattle Snake!...probably would like to get it on with that too!
- Thanks for reviving the old post, it is still on the mark. One has only to see Obama and Hillary, to get a picture of the self-absorbed, globalist with a need to control. Obama lived a s gay in Chicago for years, and Hillary visited Pedophile island all by herself, we can only guess what she did there. The globalist wants no gender, no limits on with whom they have sex, as long as it feeds their egos. Even Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg has written that pedophilia is good for children. This is your globalist in power. During the early years of acceptance of gays, the man boy love association saw that as the open door to legalized pedophilia. It is moving in their direction. As long as these groups give the ego-driven bunch thier vote, all is well with them. Obama wants a massive grave-site at Arlington complete with columns and a life-sized statue of himself. Hillary always thinks she is smarter than everyone, and should rule them, even against Constitutional rights. These people have used the climate to achieve their goals, with no knwoledge of real science. Now they are justifying sexism using brain dead comics. Reason was thrown out several years ago. Until it is restored, they will continue to boondoggle the public.
- After studying History, Biblical History and the books of Enoch, it is easy to see that this perversion comes from the sexual adventures of the Annuniki/Nephilim, (non-human [literally]), connection to the seed of Humankind...it's sad but interesting enough, these global delete creatures claim heritage to their Nephilim Forefathers.
- Seems like a plant from the left to taint conservatives who they now call Alt Right.
- Seems to me, the demons promoting an incestual pedophile candidate would insure a win for the Republicans...even the worse possible repub! But then again...this is Bizarro's world...(I keep forgetting).
I wish they'd learn that the extreme right would be promoting No Governance at all.
There is no such thing as the "Alternative" right...unless of course...it's a demoncrap in a perverts clothing.
The other thing that is funny is that demonocracies fail when the mob demands no rules...be or do what ever you wish. Plato mentions that and Crowley promoted it.
The other point, in respect to the second article/post...this creature are no different than the "Non Human" schizophrenic global delete.
- Madam Helena Blavatsky the predecessor to Alistair Crowley. You might find this interesting.
- Very familiar with her and her ilk. Like Jack Parson making a moon child. Seems a lot of scientist were engaged with the occult.
Wondering if that still holds true these days.
- You've got to be kidding.
- Nope...sending you a PDF via email...

American stock market on Friday showed strong growth on the positive macro data. Thus, the index of consumer confidence from the University of Michigan rose to the maximum in 7 years to 86.4 in October, against 84.6 the previous figure. At the same time, the number of housing starts rose to 1.02 million compared to 0.96 million the previous figure. Today it is not expected to be published the important macro and investors will expect the publication of data from China tomorrow. At the moment, the problems of the world economy continue to put pressure on the American stock markets, and we expect a further fall in the mid-term and maintain a negative outlook.
European stocks showed strong growth against the background of the correction after the sharp decline on the stock markets for 11 years. Support for the indexes had positive data on the growth of the housing market in the United States and the consumer confidence index. At the same time, the ECB board member Nowotny said about the positive impact of low price on the economy of euro eurozone, but pointed out the risks associated with low inflation and urged the governments of the euro area to structural reforms. Today the course of trading will be affected by the data on the balance of payments of the Eurozone (08:00 GMT) and monthly report of the Central Bank of Germany (10:00 GMT). Given the weak economic performance of the euro area, and vague prospects for further growth, we maintain the mid-term negative outlook for the markets in the region.
Markets in the Asia-Pacific region today showed strong growth following the improvement of attitudes of American and European investors. Pension Fund of Japan announced a review of the parameters of the investment strategy according to which will invest in Japanese companies up to 25% from 12% before, and the volume of investments in government securities will decline to 40%, against 60% earlier. The Japanese market has grown by almost 4%, which was also contributed to the decline of the yen. Traders in the region expect tomorrow's publication of a large block of macro data from China's GDP, retail sales and industrial production. We maintain the mid-term negative outlook for the markets in the region.

"Photo 365"
Well,I am little nervous as this is my first SP in dailies and equally excited as I completed one year with my Daily Showcase. I also couldn't get the results as I wanted with my SP due to bad lighting, focus and other issues. I gave a thought for a while before posting but going ahead and finally posting one of the many shots I tried.
A BIG thank you to everyone personally in the daily community who encouraged me with many wonderful comments and valuable suggestions all year round. I wasn't keen on continuing after 2-3 months of posting the dailies due to lack of time , but I kept going just because of everyone's support in the daily community.
I would be stepping into my 2nd year of dailies with a new gallery and I hope I will take wonderful shots and equally enjoy more beautiful pictures in the daily community posted by everyone of you in days to come.
Thank you everyone !
When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence. ~Ansel Adams
Excellent monochrome portrait!
Super. We have missed you in the SmugMug postings, although the Daily Community is no more, there's still a small handful of us that are still posting and making it to the "today's most popular" section. Would love to see some of your recent work.
Outstanding comp!

This is OUTSTANDING!
a stunning shot!
Great shot. Love the processing as well!
Hi, this is great.

Too young to have a will? Think again
Many people in their twenties, thirties or even forties think that drafting a Will is not neces...
At Whitehead Monckton, we think it is important to talk to our clients about succession and tax planning, at the same time as helping clients with their Wills. However, we recognise that sometimes a "standard" Will is all that is needed.
It may be that you are off on holiday and simply don't have the time to commit to a more detailed conversation, but will come back to talk to us about succession and tax planning upon your return. Or, it may be that you have just bought a house or got married and now need your first Will. Whatever the reason, we have developed the "Standard Will Arrangement" to provide you with this service at a fixed cost.
A Standard Will is intended to provide you with a straightforward Will, enabling you to include provisions for the distribution of personal effects, expressing your wishes for your funeral and if relevant appointing guardians, as well as the straightforward distribution of your assets to your beneficiaries.
Examples where it can be appropriate are:
As part of the "Standard Will Arrangement" we will always include funeral wishes and the appointment of guardians for your children where appropriate.
It is still vital to ensure a "Standard Will" reflects your wishes and enables your executors to administer your estate, so professional advice from experienced lawyers is key to this.
Single Standard Will £300 inclusive of VAT
An experienced member of our Tax and Estate Planning Team will complete your Will with you.
In some circumstances a Standard Will may not be appropriate and if this is the case, we will advise you and clearly set out the additional fees which would be charged. You can then make an informed decision as to how you want to proceed without concerns over future fees.
If you would like to make an appointment or have an initial discussion regarding your Will, please call 01622 698044.

Mandarin Kitchen
The reason that God created lobster..is non other than Mandarin Kitchen's lobster noodle. An all time classic, this place never disappoints me. Specialising in seafood, there is a great range of spectacular dishes to chose from, but obviously the lobster noodle is the jewel of the crown. Whether you go for garlic and spring onion, ginger and spring onion (highly recommend it), or black bean sauce and chillies...You are going to leave the restaurant craving for some more. Don't expect too much from the decor and be put off by the Queensway location. Mandarin Kitchen is every hip Londoner's seafood destination and with Tatler, Zagat and Taschen on their guards, who can deny it? Once you are done with your lobster, no matter how full you are, you also have to try the toffee bananas. Enjoy!

This is an unfortunate trend. I've used Debian for nearly two decades and have seen Linux go from an easily customised system for technically minded users to one aimed at those who want Windows but don't want to pay for it. Userland development has changed accordingly, with every new release from the major distros containing changes that seem to be driven by fashion rather than sound technical decisions.
I recently changed my desktop PC to OpenBSD to try it out. I liked it enough to start changing most of my other systems. I still have a couple of dedicated audio workstations running Debian as I need realtime privileges and ALSA drivers. That may change if systemd avoidance becomes too painful (FreeBSD and Dragonfly look promising, but I'd have to learn to write BSD drivers).
I know of quite a few long-term Linux users who have switched (or are thinking about switching) to *BSD. Those articles about the supposedly imminent death of *BSD don't tally with my own observations.

AboutMy generic blank profile is awesome and you know it.
I like to think of myself as a well dressed Sex Tutor and Guild Recluse.
I spend most of my time in The Suites, a fun guild that most of my Gaian friends hang out in. But when it gets slow there I move my sexy self to the GCD on the main forums where I sift through repeat topics until I find something I feel like talking about. I consider myself a very open-minded and optimistic person, which makes elitism one of my biggest pet peeves. Giving out advice about sex and sexual problems is kind of a hobby of mine.
As for Vindico outside of Gaia... I'm a college student who lives in an apartment with a roommate. I work about 40 hours a week in a deli to pay the bills. I'm mostly on Gaia late at night (late for PST anyway) because my time during the day is in great demand. My hobbies include collecting music, studying massage therapy, doing random internet research on any topic that strikes my fancy, and cooking. I walk everywhere, and I almost always have headphones on. People tell me I'm quite personable.

Happy 2018 from Comfort Colors. New pigments, new styles, and a new cuffed jogger that seems to be the "it" trend for the new year.
All of these new items can be found on page 22-23 of the new catalog. At a nice medium weight of 7oz, the new French Terry crew neck sweatshirt with kangaroo pocket, the scuba neck hoodie, and the cuffed jogger pant will take you from cool spring weather right through Indian Summer.
If your brand reflects a vintage or beachy feel try experimenting with a one pass color or tone on tone color when screen printing. Want to incorporate the new jogger pants into the mix? Add your embroidered logo right below the pocket. Or run a word or tag line up one of the legs. Lots of fun options for you to ruminate on while we wait for spring.

I joined a class at Grub Street. We weary onlookers were given 10 minutes to write flash prose about something that made us uncomfortable and/or alienated. This is my attempt.
El ojo de un huracán:
The cars are different. The smells are different. The sun is in the wrong place at the wrong times. I am frightened by the outside. The chaos of it all. Inside is good. I don't know anyones name, but the wafts of simmering breakfast are at least familiar. Hot tea rests on the table. They call it coca tea. I am told it is always a good tie to have coca tea.
We order a breakfast of eggs with bread. The eggs are different. The bread is good. Breakfast is good, but as the meal progresses, the time that I will have to face the chaos outside draws ever more near. Outside is ruleless. Cars blast by the obviously invisible pedestrians. Buildings appear to be intentionally unfinished. I retreat inside to a fresh glass of juice and more time at the table. Sara's eyes stare wide, I hide.
We met a man named Pratab. He is visiting from Florida. He has been floating through this pool of chaos for weeks. To him, the outside is calm and ordinary. He spun a magic web of words that pulled us to the light. We round a corner into a market of unidentifiable animals hanging on hooks. Rainbow swirls of fresh fruit draw us near. Have you ever had a mango? No? Mangos are bliss. There is no dignified way to eat a mango. We are told to sink our teeth in. To paint our face with mango flesh. Smiles grow. Outside is good.
My eyes were closed tight. I never got swept up and trampled by traffic. I never shouted at a thief or cursed the drivers. I never said hello to strangers. I never felt comfortable sitting on a bus and rolling by a dry landscape of sand, with mountains of roofless homes creating a mosaic of color. A golden sun colored landscape that glistened past the window was wasted on me.
But chaos is fleeting. Chaos becomes a pattern. Patterns are familiar. I like patterns. Once the veil of chaos dissipated, I noticed the blue cerulean painted facades, the vivid garments billowing in an ocean breeze, the richness of my soundings, and the happiness of the people. I became a piece of the technicolored culture. I didn't want to leave.

Moscow (AFP) – The United States, Mexico and Canada will host the 2026 World Cup after a clear victory over underdogs Morocco in a vote by FIFA member nations on Wednesday.
The joint North American bid received 134 of the 203 votes, while Morocco polled 65 in the ballot at a FIFA Congress held in Moscow on the eve of the 2018 World Cup.
It means global football's showpiece event will return to the North American continent for the first time since 1994 when the United States hosted the tournament.
Bid leader Carlos Cordeiro said his team was "humbled by the trust our colleagues in the FIFA family have put in our bid".
He said the tournament had an opportunity to put football "on a new and sustainable path for generations to come."
It will be the first World Cup to be expanded to 48 teams, posing an enormous logistical challenge for the hosts, one of the issues that is thought to have undermined the Moroccan bid.
US President Donald Trump tweeted: "The U.S., together with Mexico and Canada, just got the World Cup. Congratulations – a great deal of hard work!"
The North American bid had been deeply concerned by Trump's threat during the bidding process that nations that did not support it should not expect US support on other issues.
Bid leaders were worried the FIFA vote could essentially become a referendum on Trump.
That prompted Cordeiro to plead ahead of the ballot to make their decision on the merits of the bid, "not geopolitics".
FIFA President Gianni Infantino was believed to have strongly backed North America behind the scenes because the trio of countries involved supported him in 2016 when he took over after the corruption-tainted reign of Sepp Blatter.
– Clear choice –
Delegates had been faced with a clear choice in the 2026 vote.
The joint North American bid boasted modern, established stadiums and well-developed transport links underpinned by Mexican football fervour.
Morocco, on the other hand, promised a "European" World Cup in Africa, playing on its proximity to Europe and an appeal to take the tournament back to the African continent for just the second time.
But compared to North America, Morocco's bid existed largely on paper — many stadiums and roads would have had to have been built and critics questioned how it would have coped with an expanded tournament.
FIFA inspectors classified the north African nation's stadiums, accommodation and transport as "high risk", awarding it just 2.7 out of five in an evaluation report, with concerns raised over several critical aspects.

When I built the fence around my raised bed vegetable garden, the first thing I was thinking about was keeping out the deer. So I built it very high. The next thing to worry about was rabbits and groundhogs. I put chicken wire up about 24 inches from the ground.
Now, we know groundhogs, squirrels and raccoons can climb fences. So, I knew there might have to be some other measures to protect my crops. Also, blackbirds and crows pay no attention to fences. But, acting in my favor, blackbirds and crows are very smart.
Why is that in my favor? Because after several of them find out it is not smart to go fooling around in Mr. McGregor's garden, they pretty much leave it alone. I reinforced this feeling in them with my 12 gauge and some birdshot.
What I hadn't done until this year, however, was grow sweet corn in my little garden. In a discussion I had with Eddie Williams, he said the animals can smell the ripening corn. I think he is right about that. Something was getting into my corn every night. I put up bird netting about eight feet high around the corn. It provided further discouragement to the birds, but had no effect on my nightly visitor.
My bride proclaimed it was a raccoon. We had raccoons around the house during the winter. They frequently emptied out the bird feeders, and it was such a rough winter, we let them. But we have not seen a raccoon since the weather got warm. My son has a garden, and his is surrounded by woods and mountains. He knows the battle better than me. I borrowed a live trap from him, intent on catching the nocturnal raider.
I baited the trap with wet cat food, bird seed and the biggest, most succulent ear of corn I could find, which I smeared all around the front of the trap and then cut it into pieces and laid a trail inside the trap, where I put most of the the bait. I used rubber gloves while I was working with the trap.
The next morning, lo and behold, there he was, one mad raccoon. He tried to bite me through the wire cage. He won't eat any more of my corn, but I wasn't sure he was the only one. The next two mornings, I anxiously went to the garden, and found no more corn missing. But, on surveying the perimeter on Sunday, I found a new problem: Something had dug a hole under the fence, next to a post.
At first I thought it must have been a groundhog, but I know groundhogs can climb. I have seen them on the tops of fence posts and in trees, often in persimmon trees in the fall when the fruit is ripe. So, what had dug this hole? I immediately set to work patching the hole and making it harder to dig under the fence. When I finished, I told my wife that if the critter was still in the garden he wasn't going to be able to get out.
No sooner had I said that when I caught sight of a small, brown furry animal dashing between the green beans and the limas. I went to the house for the 12 gauge. Linda was sitting at the back corner of the house snapping some beans. I told her it must be a small groundhog, but whatever it is, don't get in my line of fire. Then I told her that if it was a rabbit, I was sorry. This was a preemptive apology for shooting a rabbit, because we have enjoyed watching the little critters all year. It seems like there is a bumper crop.
I went up one row and down the other, beating the corn and beans with my hoe in one hand and the shotgun in the other. He ran out from under the lima bean vines and square into the chicken wire. He was about half-grown, and scared to death. It was a rabbit.
You might not believe this part, but I figured I had fixed the hole in the fence, and he probably wouldn't be able to get back in, so I opened the gate and got Linda to help me herd him out of the garden. Believe me, when he saw that he was free, he made a bee line for Mrs. Lee's hay field, and he didn't look back.
I sure hope he doesn't dig another hole under the fence. I am not sure how much amnesty I have left.

I keep reading his posts and I am laughing harder and harder. Calling Handbell players "bellers?" I am confident I was one of the goofy girls following around "dude with the guitar at camp" and one of my favorite missionaries totally DID rock a "missionary mustache!"
I so needed this today. Actually, I didn't. Because I am supposed to be cleaning the house and I should probably be taking care of my kids. Eh, theyll be fine(ish.)

These Colorful Candy Rings Aren't Just Stylish, They're Also Edible
These are baubles you'll definitely want to gobble.
Miss those candy necklaces from your childhood, the ones you could flaunt for a few minutes and then devour? Now there's a grown-up version of edible jewelry, thanks to pastry chef and baubles designer Breanne Butler's new line of haute candy rings.
Her chic cocktail rings are a throwback to the legendary Ring Pop, and fittingly, they come in a range of nostalgic flavors, from bubble gum to cotton candy, root beer, grape, cherry, green apple and pina colada. And for celebrations, there's a Champagne-flavored candy ring that gives the birthday cake croissant a run for its money. Butler's eye for style brings a modish touch to the edible rings, via rich color combinations and modern shapes.
"When I was working at a Michelin-starred restaurant [the now-closed Rouge Tomate in NYC], I would often reference color palettes and texture in fashion when coming up with a new plated dessert," Butler told The Feast. "There are so many similarities in both fields. The candy rings are a somewhat obvious interpretation of food and fashion, but instead of distressing leather or dying fabric, I'm hand-pulling sugar and painting with edible gold." The rings look like actual jewelry, and "people don't believe it when I tell them it's candy," Butler adds.
Individual rings range in price from $5 to $10; a pack of three is around $25. "When I first started making them, I would get feedback that girls were happy they could buy a trendy, exaggerated ring that's a statement piece for one evening, but doesn't break the bank," says Butler. "And they could eat it at the end of the night."
The candy is gluten-, dairy- and nut-free, and on request, Butler can make her rings with isomalt so that they're sugar-free too. As of now, Butler's candy collection is limited to rings, but with requests pouring in for more varieties of edible jewelry, including earrings, she has high hopes for her small business. "I want them to become a global phenomenon," says Butler. "I really think it could be a 'cronut' situation if I hustle hard enough."

text: I am heartbroken My beloved Lakland 55-94 Deluxe is coming apart at the seams. I bought this bass new shortly after reading the 5 String Shootout in Bass Player, and it has served me faithfully for over ten years. Lately, I've been noticing a buzz around the 5th fret on the G side, and I flipped the bass over to find that the maple fretboard is actually lifting from the neck in that area!! I don't know how long it's been doing this as I seldom look at the bass from that angle, but there is a definite gap. I contacted Dan Lakin, and he was kind enough to offer to fix it for free, even though it is out of warranty. Thanks, Dan!! I guess the big question is this: Over the past few years I have heard that there has been a history of neck problems with these basses. Has anyone experienced a similar issue? Could it be the slab cut board moving differently than the 1/4 sawn neck?? I am trying to decide whether I want to keep the bass afterward, or go with something else. I also play a Status Empathy 5, but the Lakland is nice for a fat, more traditional sound and I would need to replace it. I would think that the wood would have cured or stabilized by now, which is why I was so surprised to find this situation. Any thoughts or comments? Steve

The front lines in defending the security and privacy of voting against enemies include the localities who manage the voting precinct on election day. The cities and counties need to be just as vigilant as states when it comes to protecting the vote.
In the past, the voting process wasn't seen as a target for hackers, but the 2016 presidential elections revealed a new way of thinking. State actors have been determined to have at least attempted attacks in 31 states. There were indications that Durham County, North Carolina may have been targeted through an ePollBook hack that discouraged thousands of people from voting last November.
With the next mid-term elections just a year away, local election officials should develop a plan that focuses on five areas:
- Pick the right partners. Many localities use third parties to help maintain voting machines and manage some processes on voting day. Localities should evaluate these third parties based in large part on their capabilities and expertise with security and privacy practices. Employing a contractor to help assess the third party is a good option
- Ensure that votes are counted accurately and completely. If a city or county has not taken clear, conspicuous measures to ensure the public that the selection they make in the voting booth is being recorded and reported properly, then confidence in our elections will suffer.
Localities should start with an inventory of the people, processes and technologies they have in place. Examine current privacy and security procedures and identify any vulnerabilities. From that baseline, a locality can establish a roadmap for effective policies and procedures to protect against security breaches. Vulnerability assessment contractors can help.
- Shore up election audit processes. Counties must be able to ensure that their vote totals can be reviewed and audited. In the 2016 elections, there were recounts in five different states and allegations of voter fraud in two others where the recount process and the accuracy of voting machines were called into question. The inaccuracy and unreliability of the auditing process allowed for enough doubt that both parties started to question not only the credibility of the original vote count, but the electoral process itself.
In every precinct, physical security processes for the voting machines and the machine zeroizing processes need to be fully repeatable and well-designed. Localities need a proven chain of custody, with everything recorded, audited and handled much like a court document. Tightening up those processes, and in some cases the technologies, is key to making sure the vote is accurate and that any recounts will find the same number of votes as the first count.
- Properly vet any new voting eligibility management systems. When new systems are introduced into the election infrastructure, new avenues of attack can come with them. When a locality makes a change or an addition, it is important to assess the new technology for any new vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit. Proper security procedures must be a priority during the implementation process.
- Educate. Most of the time, the easiest part of the system to exploit is the human being that sits in the middle of it. If a county or city focuses on its systems while neglecting to educate everyone in its network about how to recognize a hacker's ploys, it is inviting the same consequences that has befallen many public sector organizations.
The Russian attack on the 2016 presidential election highlighted the vulnerabilities of our election process and procedures. With the mid-term elections only a year away, we all still have significant work to do to prevent future tampering.

Kane brings skills to Boston's WHDH 7
"I'm absolutely thrilled to be returning home to New England and working for the station that I grew up watching," said Eric Kane, Bedford Class of 2011. Shortly after graduation, the Bedford native took a job as a reporter, anchor, and producer at WLUC NBC/FOX 6 in Marquette, Mich. Then in 2013 he landed a gig as a general assignment reporter at WVEC ABC 13 in Norfolk, Va.
"It's been a long time away from home, so I'm really excited to be coming back to work in Boston," he said.
Kane was a double major in film production and communication when he was at Keene State College. "I started out at Keene wanting to be a filmmaker, but part way through I realized that journalism was more my calling. I'm a news junkie, so I decided to add communication to my repertoire," he said.
But the double major has paid off, since he shot some of his own video for his work in Michigan and Virginia.
"I absolutely believe that the experience and the education that I got at Keene State helped me get to this stage in my career – to be able to land this dream job," he said.

Also investigated were two cases in which pedestrians were struck by vehicles.
One of the crashes was Friday night at 10:30 p.m. A man was hit while walking near Tennessee and Zuni SE, according to police. The man remained in critical condition Saturday night. The driver fled the scene after hitting the man.
The second occurred early Saturday evening when another man was hit by a vehicle while walking on Sequoia NW, near Coors. Police reported the man was in stable condition.
