In-Progress At Milwaukee: Craftsman Trucks On SPEED (Updated)
The Truck Series comes to Milwaukee for another good battle on the kind of track that is well-suited for this series.
Rick Allen and Phil Parsons will call the action and as usual Ray Dunlap and Adam Alexander will handle the pit road reporting duties. Krista Voda will begin the night with The Set-Up pre-race show at 9PM Eastern Time.
Things to look for tonight are the contrast in styles between a race with Michael Waltrip as the third booth announcer and this race with just Allen and Parsons. The last short-track race was a wreck-fest, and it should be interesting to see how everyone behaves on this fast and flat oval. Look for the pit reporters to have plenty of stories to discuss.
This just in: A Daly Planet reader points to this story on Jayski that basically tells the tale of a Truck Series team that will make the regular NASCAR driver, Chad Chaffin, step-out of the Truck during the race to let a paid driver take-over. British driver Paul Poulter has brought financial support to the team, and just as we have often seen in Sports Car racing, will be racing "his" truck. Let's see what the SPEED guys have to say about it.

Allow me to indulge on a storyline I would like to see Speed cover tonight for the truck race that may remind you of your Formula One days.
Jayski has a Tennessean item about Paul Poulter, a British driver who will be relieving Chad Chaffin in the #40 this evening because he has "brought financial support to the team"
That sounds strangely like one of the least appealing storylines in F1 - the pay driver. Riccardo Rosset, Giovanni Lavaggi and others who were often so slow that they failed to be within the 107% rule.
Remember the 107% rule?
I think this needs at least a little attention to see if its a limited financial issue for one team or a larger sign about the financial status of teams in general.

Anon 7:58PM,
I updated the story with the link, and pointed viewers to the fact that Allen and Parsons are going to have to deal with this issue on-the-air.
Thanks again for the tip.

Another "Local Singing Sensation" that had to be muted. The bikes are great though.

I was thinking the same thing Vicky.
When did the National Anthem become a dirge?

- Glenn said...
I'm sorry to say I had to look that "big" word up. Never have heard it before. Pretty good way to describe the way it was sung though.
I've learned my thing for the day.
A dirge is a somber song expressing mourning or grief, such as would be appropriate for performance at a funeral.
- June 20, 2008 at 9:16 PM
- Vicky D said...
Well, they brought up the "new" driver of the 40 truck right away. It's a great track to have a super race on.

It was only 5 letters, hardly big. ;)
And no worries, I was in school bands for 5 or 6 years, I know all those big words...
- June 20, 2008 at 9:25 PM
- Daly Planet Editor said...
They glossed-over the British driver pretty well.
Think the two announcers in the booth are hyped-up a bit to make sure fans don't miss Waltrip?

Anyone having sound issues, few seconds of silence then fine, Has happened a few times. I am actually missing Michael tonight.
- June 20, 2008 at 9:40 PM

They must have spoke quick. I missed it. But that was about the time I was learning my word for the day.(lol)
Is there anywhere that has live scoring?
I hate the scroll, can't keep up.

Ams fan I haven't been able to find it but I stopped looking a few races back
- June 20, 2008 at 9:43 PM

I was just looking for it too. the only thing I could find was TrackPass, and I'm not paying for it.
- June 20, 2008 at 9:46 PM
- Glenn said...
Yep, still wishing.
JD, have you heard what races Doug Richert will be on? I understand he will be replacing Mikey. Can you add anything?
- June 20, 2008 at 9:49 PM
- Newracefan said...
Rick Trackpass is only MRN/PRN not scoring for Trucks and NW
- June 20, 2008 at 9:50 PM
- Glenn said...
Trackpass does scoring only for cup.
- June 20, 2008 at 9:54 PM
- Labbie said...
Well, then I'm glad I didn't sign up.
- June 20, 2008 at 9:56 PM
- Karen said...
What is the 107% rule, please?
No SetUp listed on my guide. Cup qualifying was listed 7:00-9:00.

I think the booth confused him as Brian when he was leaving. Easy mistake to make, but one that shouldn't happen.

I just looked up the radar and the storm went barely south, should be clear the rest of the night.
Anon: Are you saying it's boring because they're not wrecking every 15 laps? Just because the field is a bit spread out doesn't make it bad racing.

They need to put an "Easy-Rider" rifle rack in these things.
Spark things up more.

I thought Brad did a great job in the booth too but I missed them call him Brian. I don't think this race is boring either.

I thought Brad was very good, and contributed to the quality of the broadcast while he was there.
Being one of three brothers whose names all start with the same letter, I am betting that Brian and Brad are quite used to being called by each other's names. My mother and my grandmother both used to do it to us all the time, along with teachers and many others.

If I recall, the old 107% rule was a requirement that the F1 backmarker cars had a qualifying speed within 107% of the pole sitter in order to be allowed to start the race. Many paying drivers and teams with outdated equipment frequently failed to be fast enough.

I enjoyed the coverage of the race. Phil and Rick did ok in the booth. Nice view of the finish w/the drop down on the upper left.

Good show as usual.
It sure would be nice to try Rick, Phil, and Larry Mac for a Sunday broadcast. They would definitely be a great team for the Saturday race!
Missed Krista tonight.
It will be good when Doug starts. If anything is missing it's a crew chief point of view.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21 (UPI) -- President Obama said Monday the United States has "limitless" possibilities and called on Americans to carry on the tasks of the nation's pioneers.
"We, the people, declare today that the most evident of truths -- that all of us are created equal -- is the star that guides us still," Obama said in his second inaugural address. "It is now our generation's task to carry on what those pioneers began."
After some bruising fiscal fights in recent weeks, Obama said Americans "are made for this moment, and we will seize it -- so long as we seize it together."
While history says the truths of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness "may be self-evident, they have never been self-executing; that while freedom is a gift from God, it must be secured by his people here on Earth."
This generation has been tested by crises that have steeled its resolve, the president said.
"America's possibilities are limitless, for we possess all the qualities that this world without boundaries demands," he said.
While he did not address the specific policy issues, Obama did call for action, saying that the nation "cannot afford delay."
"We cannot mistake absolutism for principle, or substitute spectacle for politics, or treat-name-calling as reasoned debate," Obama said outside the U.S. Capitol.
"We must act, knowing that our work will be imperfect," Obama said. "We must act, knowing that today's victories will be only partial, and that it will be up to those who stand here in four years, and 40 years, and 400 years hence to advance the timeless spirit once conferred to us in a spare Philadelphia hall."
He reminded his audience that the oath he took "like the one recited by others who serve in this Capitol, was an oath to God and country, not party or faction -- and we must faithfully execute that pledge during the duration of our service."
The ceremonial swearing-in ceremony -- Obama was officially sworn in Sunday as prescribed by the Constitution -- was under bright sunny skies with temperatures in the 30s.
As Obama made his way to West Side of the Capitol, he shook hands with those in the hallway, pausing to tell House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, "I miss this place." Obama represented Illinois in the U.S. Senate.
U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts administered the oath of office to Obama Monday, as he did in the private ceremony Sunday.
"Congratulations, Mr. President," Roberts said afterward.
Associate Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor administered oath of office to Vice President Joe Biden, just as she did Sunday.
"Congratulations," she said after administering the oath.
"Good job," Obama told Biden.
Singer-songwriter James Taylor sang "America the Beautiful," pop singer Kelly Clarkson sang "My Country Tis of Thee" and Beyonce, a top -selling music artist, sang the national anthem.
Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., chairman of the joint inauguration committee, welcomed everyone within earshot to the "celebration of our great democracy."
Schumer also thanked the armed forces "for your bravery, your honor your sacrifice."
To those who doubt whether America can survive its differences and events, Schumer said, "remember America always has been and still are a practical, optimistic and problem-solving people."
"America always rises to the occasion," he said. "America prevails and America prospers."
"It is a good moment to rejoice today," Schumer concluded, "and it is the perfect moment to renew our collective faith in the future of America."
Delivering the invocation, civil rights activist Myrlie Evers-Williams asked for blessings for "all who contribute to the essence of the American spirit, the American dream."
"We ask for your guidance toward the light of deliverance," she said.
Poet Richard Blanco read his ode to "Everyday of the Everyman and Everywoman" that included a reference to the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., when he spoke of the "20 children marked absent today and forever."
In his benediction, the Rev. Luis Leon of St. John's Church in Washington, asked that the elected leaders be filled "with love of truth and righteousness and serve the nation ably and do your will."
Obama and Biden then went to lunch at Statuary Hall, where the menu included foods from New England and the Upper Midwest.

In important legislative news this past week from our nation's capital, we learn U.S. Rep. Louie Gohmert filed a budget resolution that would keep President Barack Obama from playing golf until the president restores tours of the White House.
Oh, brother.
And that exclamation of frustration is aimed at Gohmert and Obama.
Sometimes, it seems the people we elect to serve us go out of their way to be silly. This would be one of those instances.
Obama first, because his action prompted Gohmert's. The president stopped White House tours for the duration of the sequester saying he wanted to avoid overtime that might be caused for the Secret Service.
Oh, brother. Wait, we said that already.
This is obviously a slam at Congress, and particularly the House of Representatives, because that is where most visitors get their "tickets" to take the White House tour. This little bit of a snit from Obama is silly, and it makes people realize just how petty politicians can be sometimes.
But wait! If we needed more proof, along comes Gohmert, who wants to take away the president's golf balls. Gohmert's resolution is that the president cannot use government resources to fly to play golf. We suppose our representative's reasoning is that if tours cause overtime, those golfing trips will, too. That's hard to debate.
Gohmert's resolution wouldn't bother us so much if it was not intended to be just as whiny and nitpicking as the president's tours cancellation. Both decisions sound as if they could have been made on a playground rather than the hallowed halls of democracy.
Neither step does a single thing to push the country toward a resolution of the sequestration problem. If anything, this snit might harden a few hearts. Not in Washington, of course, because we're pretty sure the brains in Washington are as hardened as they can be.
The president should resume the tours and Gohmert should resist the urge, difficult as it will be for him, to be such a snit.
Really, gentlemen, we think both of you know better than to act like this. Please prove to us that you do.

We Interrupt this Sleepy November for an Angels Baseball Rant
Ah, November. From a baseball standpoint, this is easily the sleepiest month of all. Sure it seems promising when you enter the month, what with free agency decisions, awards announcements and all. But then, reality hits. Potential free agents are either woo'd back by their current team or they become free agents aaaaaaaaaand nothing happens. Nothing. We talk. We speculate. Teams and players make noises. And nothing really happens until December and the Winter Meetings…or so. Okay, and in some big name cases, or so, or so.
And the awards? Well, they are fun and it is exciting when one of your favorites wins, or at least fodder for debate when they do not. However, as a fan, I find both the excitement and the occasional outrage to be largely ephemeral at least in terms of a baseball fix. I find out who won. I think Yay! Right on! Really? Or even WTF? And then I move on, baseball jones still fully present and accounted for.
Now, none of this is intended as a complaint. I understand why very little happens in terms of personnel decisions in November and the fact that the awards are no kind of baseball fix at all does not make them any less important. However, these facts do serve to explain how one might get so caught up in other things that, pulling a thoroughly random example completely out of thin air, a normally avid blogger might let her posts lapse for the better part of two weeks. Not buying it? *sigh* Yeah, didn't think so. Well, tough. My assessment of November's comparative lack of baseball fix-ly goodness stands. 😉
In terms of my Angels, well, to be honest I'm more than a bit annoyed with the front office right now and that probably also has a bit to do with my recent online scarcity. Although I suppose it makes for a more interesting blog, I don't really like to rant. I prefer to cheer and praise and make up goofy noun-and-verb-repurposed-as-adjective mash ups of joy and excitement. But, alas, instead all I've got is a great big jumble of rantyness…
So, am I surprised that the Angels let Torii Hunter reach free agency without a contract offer? Not entirely, at least not after all of the noises the front office has been making about money. But am I disappointed? Oh, yes. Devastatingly so. Also, I think the decision was a big mistake. No, I don't expect Torii to have as big a year in 2013 as he did in 2012 – 2012 was a career year. But I think 2012 makes it very clearly that Torii has found a way to stay healthy well into his 30s and to switch up his batting and fielding style to take advantage of the considerable skill sets he has in his 30s rather than still trying to play with the skill sets he had in his 20s.Plus, Torii's skills as a clubhouse leader and a mentor to the younger players on the team are too important to just let go. I would never advocate keeping a player just because they're a clubhouse leader, but when your clubhouse leader still plays like Torii plays, give the man a contract already. I think that some decisions can't be made just with one's wallet, which brings me to…
I hate to keep beating up on Vernon Wells, because he tries his ass off, keeps a great attitude and sense of humor through it all, and seems like a genuinely nice guy. Plus, he didn't create this situation. However, the fact remains that he has never worked out on the Angels and the idea of Wells in the outfield over Torii (or, in truth, over Mark Trumbo or Peter Bourjos or anyone else if the Angels had kept Torii) just makes me even more livid with Tony Reagins' initial trade decision and with the front office's refusal to just take the salary hit – and yes, it's a _huge hit – call the trade the failure it is and part company. Heading into the offseason, the rumor was that if the Angels couldn't offload Wells' contract there was no way they could extend a contract to Torii. Granted, it's not my pocketbook and I have no idea how much additional cash Arte Moreno can afford to dedicate to the team payroll, but to me this just seems like wrongheaded thinking. Wells is hardly the only or even the biggest thing wrong with the Angels but, barring something extremely unforeseen happing, continuing to keep and play Wells over other players in never going to yield a different result than it already has. Yes, this trade was an incredibly costly mistake but sometimes it takes spending even more money to fix a costly mistake and this is one of those cases. The team should have kept Torii.
Anyway, I think that's quite enough ranting for one post, don't you? Tune in in a day or two to read my next rant – hint, this one's about the Angels pitching personnel situation – and for my official congratulations to Mike Trout on his AL Rookie of the Year Award win tomorrow. 😉

What: Free the Girls presentation
When: Wednesday, 6:30 p.m.
Where: First United Methodist Church, 350 11th Ave.
Contact: http://bit.ly/10kRjAa
LONGMONT — The women of First United Methodist Church in Longmont are supporting victims of sex trafficking with a bra drive this spring.
More than 470 bras have been collected since March 20, the first day of the Spring Sling, said organizer Catherine Murphy.
"We wanted to raise awareness of sex trafficking, an issue that I don't think a lot of people realize is a real problem here and around the world," Murphy said. "We do a lot of raising money for different charities, but we wanted to do something with a little more body this time."
The drive is just one of the church's efforts to become a staple in the Longmont and surrounding communities, said pastor Dave Lillie.
In September, the church revived its mission, encouraging members to go out into the community and make an impact, a campaign the church is calling The Heart of Longmont. The Spring Sling is one of the congregation's efforts to contribute, Lillie said.
Donations will go to Denver-based organization Free the Girls, which provides job opportunities to women in Africa who have been rescued from sex trafficking.
Free the Girls provides women who don't have the education to get traditional jobs with 100 bras to sell in secondhand clothing markets. Once the women have sold their first batch, they can buy new inventory at below-market prices from Free the Girls to continue supporting their families.
Organization co-founder Kimba Langas said the group hopes to provide a safe and sustainable solution for the women they help.
So far, the organization has helped 20 women start their businesses with plans to expand pilot programs to Uganda, Mexico, El Salvador and Kenya.
Langas will be presenting the story of the organization and information about sex trafficking at First United Methodist Church in Longmont at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday. The event is free and open to the public, but organizers are asking everyone to bring a used bra to donate.
Murphy said the United Methodist Women have information about sex trafficking and organizations across the state but haven't done any fundraisers with those groups until now.
"What got my attention is how horrendous it is," Murphy said. "The thought that these women are being put in a position where they have no choice but to buy themselves out of something they never wanted to get into."
Bras and sex trafficking aren't something most might expect to see a church take on, Murphy said, but she's hoping the drive will attract some attention.
"People need to know about these things that are ugly," Murphy said. "We don't want to tippy-toe around stuff but to come out and say it directly to move people."

Stray dog evades Animal Services capture 92 times
Fayetteville Animal Services has a plan to catch a stray dog that has evaded the organization since 2008.
The search for Lucky Black Dog, or "LBD," has city-wide attention, and officials have a plan to catch him.
"He's infamous, that's for sure," said Tony Rankin of Fayetteville Animal Services.
Rankin and his team said they have exhausted about every option to catch the stray dog. The dog has gotten away 92 times.
Animal Services even used a tranquilizer dart, but without luck.
"It's very frustrating, because we're hired to do a job and that job is to pick up loose animals," Rankin said. "It's part of that job, anyway. When you feel that you can't fulfill those job requirements, you feel like you haven't gotten your job done."
Joan Threet said the dog gets a little too close and it was time for him to get off the streets.
"He finds friends and he runs around with friends," Threet said. "Even if I'm walking my dog, he'll come up and harass my dog. He's brazen."
The dog has an issue that has divided the Washington-Willow neighborhood for years. Jan Ragland said the dog likes its freedom.
"I've seen it on my porch," she said. "I'll see it in my yard. I'll see it in other people's yard(s). It doesn't appear to want a home."
Whether the dog stays or goes, "LBD" will go down as one of the most hunted hounds in history.
Officials said they hope to line up a foster firmly for LBD if they catch him.

After making the comedy "The Guilt Trip" together, screen and song icon Barbra Streisand and comedy star Seth Rogen ended up with such an authentic-feeling mother/son dynamic, one practically expected Streisand to rub schmutz from his cheek and question his choice in clothing.
The two actors' genuine, compelling chemistry fuels the road trip-style comedy which sees Rogen's reticent young chemist trying to sell his environmentally friendly housecleaning fluid embarkson an ill-advised cross-country trek with his ceaselessly smothering mother (Streisand). And no one, it seems, was more pleased at the maternal connection than the stars.
On the beginnings of their on-screen rapport:
Barbra Streisand: Seth sussed me out. He called people from the Focker movies, right?
Seth Rogen: Yeah, I was actually working with John Schwartzman, who was the cinematographer on 'Meet the Fockers,' at the time this came up – I asked him what he thought of Barbra, and he said she was great. I know ['Meet the Fockers' director] Jay Roach a little, so I asked him. I think he said that she was awesome, too. Ben Stiller, I might have run into and asked. Yeah, everyone – this Barbra Streisand lady checked out, so I thought I'd give her a shot.
Streisand: I didn't know who to call. I don't know any of those people from his movies, so what I was going to do? I thought he was adorable, so I thought, this is interesting, unlikely which makes it interesting, and yet, we're both Jewish. I could be his mother.
Rogen: But when we met, we got along. We got along very well.
Streisand: Instantly.
Rogen: The way we talk in real life is not entirely different than our rapport in the movie, in some ways. We were getting along. It's a lot of me trying to explain things to her about modern times. And her trying to feed me s**t I don't want to eat.
Streisand: But he would show me things – like, yesterday he asked me if I had a Twitter account. I said 'I don't know.'
Rogen: And I showed her that she did.
Streisand: Which I only use for political purposes. So I didn't know it was beyond that. I wouldn't know how to find it on my phone.
Rogen: I'll show you. I change her clocks during daylight savings. I do all that.
Streisand: He's very handy.
On their own parent/child relationships:
Streisand: My son doesn't see me as an icon. He sees me as his mother who touches his hair too much. He was very important in my decision to make the movie because he was recovering from back surgery, so he was in bed for a few days after. And I brought the script over and read it out loud, and it was interesting, actually. His father [Elliott Gould] was in the room, too – Isn't that funny? We were both coddling our son. So he became the audience, and Jason was reading all the parts with me. And he said, 'I think you should do it, mom.' And I really trust his integrity and his opinion. He has great taste in whatever he chooses to do – it's amazing. So he clinched the deal.
Rogen: I think my mom drives me crazy sometimes. I have a good relationship – I see my parents a lot, but, yeah, it's a lot like in the movie. For no reason I get annoyed. I'll just find myself kind of reverting back to like a mentality of like a 14-year-old kid who just doesn't want to be around his parents. It's one of the things I related to most in the script, honestly. It was just that dynamic where your mother's trying, and the more she tries, the more she bugs you. And the more it bugs you, the more she tries. And you like see her trying to say the thing that won't annoy you, and she can't. Yeah, all that is very, at times, real to my relationship with my mother.
Streisand: Mothers develop guilt trips. When I was working a lot and I felt guilty as a parent that I couldn't pick up my son every day from school, bake him cookies, that kind of thing. So I know that feeling. I know that feeling a lot. And so you try to compensate and everything they do is great. They sense that guilt, children, and they're going through their own rebellious times or whatever. Having a famous parent is an odd thing, you know? So I thought it was interesting to investigate this trying to be my son's friend, versus being a mother. And when it comes to time to really say 'You abused me. You disrespect me. You talk back to me. You don't honor what I say. You won't take my advice.' That kind of thing, in terms of this movie, it hit on all those things that I thought I could explore.
On how Streisand was convinced to take on the role:
Streisand: It was time to challenge myself again, you know? Of course, I made it very difficult for them to hire me because I kept wanting an out some way. So I made it really hard. I really don't want to go – I never do this normally, right – I really don't want to schlep to Paramount. It's two hours each way. So would you rent a warehouse and build the sets in the Valley no more than 45 minutes from my house? And they said yes. And on these Focker movies, I had to get up early, and I'm not an early bird – and Seth says, 'It's very hard to be funny at 7:30 in the morning.' He's right. He has to have a few cups of tea. You have to feed him a little bit…
Rogen: Get my head right.
Streisand: So I said, you can't pick me up until 8:30 because that's like a normal time to get up for me, because I love the night. My husband and I stay up until 2, 3 in the morning, so we don't function that well at 6 in the morning. And they said 'Okay.' I said to Anne [Fletcher, the director] 'Well, would you make the movie without me?' And she said no. And I felt bad, guilty – another guilt trip, right? I said 'Oh, no – she's not going to have this job, and I want her to work.'
Rogen: I was open to Shirley MacLaine.
Streisand: Is that what you said to them?
Rogen: [Laughs] No – that's not true. I only would have done it if Barbra was doing it. For me, it was funny: 'They want you to do this movie with Barbra,and Barbra's not sure if she wants to do it.' And I was like, 'Well, just let me know if she says yes.' And then I literally made like two movies during that time. And we were editing '50/50,' and I got a call, like 'Barbra said yes.' 'Oh, okay –
Streisand: It's great to feel wanted.
Barbra Streisand and Seth Rogen's Unlikely Bond Fueled "The Guilt Trip"
The actors developed a mother-son dynamic off-screen as well

Anyone with one slot available at all times can sign up!
Do you have a knack for swaying people to your side? Do you know how to pull people from sitting on the fence over to your side? Are you skillful in manuevering your way around stubborn people who refuse to take sides? Well then, this tournament is for you!
Welcome to the seventh in a series of tournaments called Nothing But Neutral Ground!
In many maps we have on CC, the neutral territories play an integral role in the gameplay of the map. In these maps, the neutral territories usually take up more than half of the territories, and in some cases, even close to all of them! This series of tournaments celebrates the key role of these neutral troops and territories, and tests how well you are able to sway these neutral territories to serve your purpose, or neglect them if they are of no use to you.
As stated in the title, the map you will be playing for this tournament is Peloponnesian War. Other maps that will be used in future tournaments are listed below.
The tournament will follow a 1v1 single elimination structure. The top 8 players by CC points will be seeded, and the rest of the players will be randomly assigned into the bracket using random.org. This entire tournament will take place over 4 rounds, till the last player standing is crowned the winner for having swayed the neutrals to their side!
The game settings for all games will be as follows:
Map: Peloponnesian War
Type: Standard
Troops: Automatic
Order: Sequential
Spoils: Flat Rate
Fortifications: Chained
FoW: Sunny
General Achievement Medal
There will be a General Achievement Medal up for grabs for the entire tournament franchise.
To win the General Achievement Medal, you'll have to accumulate the most Manipulative Power points throughout the entire tournament franchise. This is how you can get Manipulative Power points:-
1. Winning a normal Nothing But Neutral Ground tournament gives 1 Manipulative Power point per tournament won.
2. At the end of all the individual tournaments (tentatively set to have a total of 20), a final large scale tournament will be held, having 64 to 128 players.
- Spots in the top 64 will be reserved for all previous winners.
- Top 4 players will earn 2* Manipulative Power points each.
- Eventual winner will earn an additional 2* Manipulative Power points.
- More details of the tournament will come out when it actually is run.
(*Note: Points value may change, depending on the spread of points from the individual tournaments.)
So what are you waiting for! Stop standing on neutral ground, and choose to sign up now!

Epic Doesn't Even Begin to Cover Game 6! + A Little Angels News
Game 6 was…Wow! Just wow! It was so amazingly, excitingly, excruciatingly edge of your seat suspensefully, fantastically awesome that I simply cannot find the right adjectives to describe it. So I'm throwing any that come even remotely close out there in one large jumble, hoping that sum of the parts hits closer to the mark. I guess what I'm saying is that this isn't really my description of last night's game, it's a tribute. 😉
David Freese stands at the plate in the bottom of the 9th, with the Cardinals down by two, and the Rangers one strike away from becoming World Series champions for the first time in their franchise history. That moment, so full of potential for either heroics or disappointment, when the outcome can go either way and everything is riding on one pitch and one swing? That moment was microcosm for everything I love about this game, regardless of who is playing…and that moment happened two more times in the same game!!
Forget the box score. Five errors and 15 different pitchers? Stats like that almost make this sound like a game neither team wanted to win badly enough rather than the 11 innings of bare knuckled brawl for the final lead that it was. No box score is ever going to completely convey a game like this anyway. But I suspect that in a few seasons, MLBN will revise their 20 Greatest Games of the Last 50 Years and when they do, this game is sure to be on that list.
And I will say this. Anyone who was not excited by last night's game (and there were a few such killjoys on my FaceBook last night) should seriously check their pulse, because if that didn't move you, it's entirely possible you don't have one. And with Halloween drawing near…well…you just can't be too careful about these things. Beware of zombies, and all that. 😉
And there's still one more game to go!
* * * * * *
And in Angels news…
Baseball organizations are starting to announce their annual awards and the Sporting News has named our Mark Trumbo AL Rookie of the Year!
I am so pleased! Mark Trumbo meant everything to the Angels this season. He may have started off slow, but he grew into a difference making bat in a lineup desperately in need of one. Trumbo's 29 homeruns were the most hit by an AL rookie in well more than a decade and just shy of the franchise rookie record. I wonder what he might have done if it weren't for the stress fracture discovered in his foot during the last weekend of the regular season. To be honest, I'm actually a little anxious for an injury update on that front. It should be a routine injury that keeps him out of Winter Ball and no more but, well, we have terrible luck with first basemen's feet these days and I'd hate to lose this rising star for any amount of time.
I don't know where Trumbo will finish in the race for the Hank Aaron Rookie of the Year award. There is some stiff competition in the AL this season, so much so that I was pleased to see Trumbo get recognition on any front, even though he is more than deserving. But this analytical, slugging first baseman, who literally takes notes to work from on every pitcher and hitter we face, is sure to just keep on getting better. And, regardless of how the voting goes, I expect his name will be on a lot more lips next season.
* * * * * *
Oh, and apparently we have a GM. The unofficial announcement, announcing the fact the Angels can't announce their hiring of the Arizona D-Backs Jerry Dipoto during the World Series but will hold a news conference on Saturday "regarding the GM position" just, you know, for no particular reason hit the news today. Hmmm, I am not certain exactly what I think of this yet but basically feel positive about it. …That and I am overcome with the desire to reread Catch-22…you now, for no particular reason.

Buy Garden Tools Online in IndiaTo make your garden look beautiful all the year round use a spade to churn the soil and keep it aerated, use organic compost to top up the soil and keep it at its best for an extended period. Weeds are a nightmare and can eat up the entire garden. Hence, conduct appropriate activities like Pruning, Cutting, and Weeding. To keep the garden well maintained conduct raking daily / weekly, use premium quality spades, mowers, rakes, and wheelbarrows. To spray the pesticides use the right sprayers since an excessive amount of both can harm the plants. Watering is another important aspect of gardening. Keep the plants moist and hydrated but do not overwater the plants. Instead, use watering tools designed to water them properly and without any hassle. Secondly, a healthy garden is devoid of harmful fertilizers and pesticides. Hence, it is advisable to create Mulch. Mow your lawn with a lawnmower and use the leaves and grass to create Mulch. This Mulch would act as a natural fertilizer and compost. To make your garden look good use accessories and beautify your green space. Accessorize your garden with beautiful and trendy pots and planters. Choose colorful and vibrant containers that are available in plastic, ceramic and wooden materials.

Interest rates are lower today than they have been in the previous decade, and there is no time like the present to refinance your home mortgage loan. Chances are, if you have not refinanced in the past few years, your interest rate is hovering around 5% or more. That means that you could potentially be saving hundreds of dollars a month on your mortgage payment with the right home loan!
Refinancing could be key for paying down debt and saving money. But what are the best reasons to refinance? Use this checklist to see if you are a good candidate.
- Have you refinanced in the past three years? (If not, there really is no time like now!)
- Do you have an ARM on your loan? (When inflation rises, where will this leave your interest rates?)
- Is your interest rate currently 5% or more?
- Are there large financial goals like paying down debt or buying a second home that could be easily obtained by refinancing your current home?
- Would you like a lower monthly house payment?
Many people put off refinancing because they don't want to deal with the hassle of paperwork, but we make the process easy for you. Once you send in the forms we need, we stay in constant communication with you, get you fast answers, and close your refinance quickly. Call me today!

Do Derivative Developers have a right to complain?
Subject description: No one forced you to create it, don't complain if no one wants to help you develop it!.
Hello Everyone,
Over the last few years I've watched and read posts as a forum member decides to create a derivative like I have with TEENpup and now Legacy OS.
They feel excited about bringing something new to Puppy users and wait as forum members download and test their creation.
As the positive comments are posted (Normally by the same users who have tested previous Derivatives), this forum member thinks "I'm the one who has finally created what Puppy users have been waiting for"!
As the days pass comments like "Your Derivative is what I've been looking for and would be perfect if it had this or that".
Now the Derivative User begins to add these packages and finds they need help and thinks "I'll ask for help from the more knowledgeable forum members including the team working on the next Official Puppy release as forum members have told me my Derivative is exactly what they've been waiting for"
All excited the Derivative user waits and waits with little or no interest at all.
Still the requests for this or that comes in until interest dries up or another forum member releases their Derivative and the cycle begins again.
Now to the reason I'm posting this.
As the developer of the Derivative "Legacy OS" I've experienced the above over the years in one form or another. When you have a user all excited about your derivative and you spend hours adding an application they've requested only to read a forum post a few days later from the same user praising another derivative claiming it's the only version their using making requests for the same application you've wasted hours on, it can get you down.
So to all current and future Derivative creators I post this question:
Do Derivative Developers have a right to complain if others including the Official Puppy Team don't offer them support and help with their Derivative!
My answer is
as a Derivative Developer I alone decided to create Legacy OS. I can't expect or demand others on the forum help me. Over the years I've also asked for help with little or no response.
I've learn to ask for little things so the forum member who has responded didn't feel pressured and doesn't realize that the information they supplied helped as much as it did.
Also other Linux forums have supplied answered when this forum wouldn't or couldn't.
Finally if your sitting there thinking about creating the ultimate Puppy Derivative do it expected nothing in return. No one here owes you anything in return.
Your Reward? The knowledge and satisfaction you gain along the journey.
Legacy OS 2017 has been released.

Should Derivative Developers have the right to expect praise and help?
No! But when they get praise or critics then see it as a help for to improve
Just kidding. I thought the title wanted us to help you.
That you actually needed our help to decide on if you had
the right to complain about us? But if I get your text you did not
need our help at all? You rather wanted to teach us something
or give a friendly good advice.
I use Google Search on Puppy Forum
not an ideal solution though

That's a good post John.
I hope it's understood by developers of puplets I test out and comment on here that if I find anything lacking in their puplet, or something doesn't work as well as it should, anything I say is in the context of the fact that I'm using a ten year old machine and I'm therefore enormously grateful to still be able to use it to get online and surf the Internet, use office apps, play the odd game etc. at all.
I ought really to say that every time I post, but I suspect people would soon get tired of reading it. Puppy devs and puplet creators, you all deserve a big clap just for stepping up to the plate and having a go, never mind if it all actually works out.
And that includes you btw John, you've done a fine job over the years with Teenpup and now Legacy.

1+. well said. Puppy devs deserve a well done even when the thing doesn't work. others often pick it up from there and run with it.
testers usually post their hardware and when something doesn't work out savvy devs figure it out. seen that happen quite often.
in the same vein users, testers have no right to complain about free software, the hard work of someone else.
of course, informing devs something does not work is another matter. most devs welcome that sort of thing and i am not talking about the usual sort of critique of one software or another.
what i am talking about is whining, out right expressions of anger, bitterness or blaming the devs in a public forum about their work because something does not work on their particular hardware or that it does not include their favorite program.
i can only guess the reason some devs do not return emails, engage forum members, or post remarks about the experience of testers is too much of the above has occurred. burn out can happen for many reasons.
the devs need community support. not just testers of their work but to encourage their efforts.

Hello nooby,
But if I get your text you did not need our help at all? You rather wanted to teach us something or give a friendly good advice.
nooby, correct, I only mentioned Legacy OS because as a long term developer have some insight in to what a Derivative Creator should expect.
This post wasn't, isn't asking for help with Legacy OS development. I'm not looking or expecting help from forum members especially those who are part of the Official Puppy Team.
Puppy can only improve / advance if these developers can concentrate full time on the official releases. Derivative Creators need to understand this.
When I decided to create TEENpup, I privately messaged Barry K to see if it was OK to do so. Over time the focus of the Derivative evolved from a Distro for teenagers to saving old computers by offering the largest collection of useful apps I could fit on one CD.
I alone decided to begin this project and have come to the conclusion I alone are responsible to work on it, release it and if it finds a home on someones old PC Great! If not no worries. I can't expect anyone to use it because I spent my time creating it. The developing, testing, stuff ups are all part of a wonderful journey.
Derivative Developers Focus on your project, search for answers all over the net not just in this forum, the knowledge you gain doing so will bring rewards you never expected. Enjoy the journey like I have, it's worth it.

Hello Everyone,
I expected more discussion on this subject. May be I titled it wrong?
This post isn't about me or Legacy OS, I'm just interested in what forum members think about Derivatives and the expectations their developers have from other forum members.
May be you think forum members should help!
May be you're sick of new Derivative being released weekly?
May be I should leave the forum as well! LOL!!
(I have no plans to leave)

I agree with what you say about the journey - that is the important part. This is often the case when you work voluntarily.
Realistically Puppy has got me back into computing at the nuts ad bolts level - something I'd left for about ten years after Acorn went defunct.
I'd tried various Linux distro's before, but Pup made it easy.
As well as being small, quick and easy to use - Puppy's other advantage is that it makes the Linux system easier to learn.

Hello darkcity,
I too love the way I can poke around the system mod this, delete that, destroy my whole system if I want and have. Only Puppy gives a user this freedom.

"Teenpup" hasn't been relevant since 2003. (Stupid name too, btw. Good that you changed it.)
But you do it as a hobby, so carry on.
I'm certain this qualifies as the helpful feedback every developer longs for.

Ha! But John Biles can't complain, you see, because "no-one forced him to develop it".

Enjoy the journey like I have, it's worth it.
You are very focused John.
I created a whole sparkle of Linux Tmxxines (Puppy remaster) as I need them and as a courtesy upload. I provide no support or updates.
Twinkle was the last Linux tmxxine
Remastering is now a lot easier.
I remember when MU created Muppy around the time of Puppy 2.
It was radically different, aprox. 350MB and very comprehensive.
There was a lot of learning involved. In many ways it was two years (at least) ahead of its time.
I know the woof2 system creates a commonality and base that can be seen in a variety of our recent Puppys: Wary, Racy, Lucid and Slacko.
I can not yet use woof2 - but then I needed several goes with remastering and that is now very simple.
If I work it out I may create Linux tmxxine 'Beam'
The learning and computing empowerment is really the whole of the journey. Quite a ride . . .

Hello Lothar,
What a ripper!! Insult all you want I agree "no one forced me to make the super 2003 out dated TEENpup" and I know your going to say it next post so I'll beat you to it "Legacy OS sucks also".
Anyone who puts something in the public domain has to expect the knockers as well as those who can find a use for it.
I love any feedback I get be it good or bad.
Introducing "Lotharpup" what it does only God knows LOL!

Creating several puplets ie derivatives is a journey itself. Compile a kernel, compile apps and slowly learn to understand scripts inside Puppy and also to recognize something missing is the second volume in this journey. To get feedback....testers....users....and at last involvement from the others....is something which seems to happen or then not....There are now so many development threads that only those most enthusiathic Puppy ppl has energy to follow all these paths. I think this is enrichment...others feel it is waste of effort...pick your side as you want.
I have noticed that puplet builder and coders have relationship. Puplet builder creates updated build and coders get working distro which has their products and also updates included. Coders also poke inside the hood and find issues which mere gui user dont notice. It happens all the time.
I think this is homeostatic cycle of the Puppy evolution. I like it....
Oh yeah, the question....answer is....YES.
