Gladiator_rodney2_tiny by Sveet on

Someone had to do it. Might as well be me


Star-divide

Last December, Lakin, a lieutenant colonel, was dismissed from the Army and sentenced to six months in prison after, in the words of his supporters, inviting "his own court martial with the hopes that the normal processes of legal discovery would provide some answers." (The plan didn't work.) Supporters kept up with Lakin through a series of "prison diaries" that he mailed out to be posted online.

In what promises to be one of the stranger political spectacles of the year, a homecoming event is planned Saturday at the Southwest Airlines baggage claim area of Baltimore Washington International Airport. The website set up to support Lakin advises potential attendees that "there are no less than about 20 hotels within a mile or so of the airport" and suggests:

 

All we ask you to do is bring a home-made poster that says, "Welcome Home Terry." or "Thank You Terry" or any appropriate messages about the issue. Bring a small US flag if you have one.

…

We will text the coordinators when we deplane so you can all get ready to greet Terry as he descends on the escalator to baggage claim. We need a big hurray and lots of applause (of course). He may say a few words. Then we'll get him to his luggage, to his car, and home.

Unlike the folks over at WorldNetDaily, who have been enriched by years of pumping up birtherism, Lakin's commitment to the conspiracy both torpedoed his career and put his family in financial peril. His website notes:

"Please consider making a special gift at this critical time. We have been able to provide for the family's monthly expenses, but contributions have dropped off since the release of the proposed birth document by the Obama administration."

Best way to do a Vodka watermelon?

by Rayskins on May 13, 2011 12:25 PM EDT reply actions  

I used to plug it, but I think that takes too much time

What I do now is cut the top off Jack’O’Lantern style and scoop all the meat and juice into a huge bowl. Then I run all that meat through a strainer trapping the juice in another container which I dump back into the emptied out watermelon. Repeat until you’ve done this with all of the meat. You can keep the meat as it still tastes ok, but it’s not quite the same nor necessary. I then dump a 750 mL of your favorite flavored vodka into the watermelon that is now filled just with juice. I’ve had a lot of success with Peach Absolut, but it’s really up to your preference. Throw that bitch in the fridge to cool down and take it to your event with a ladle sticking out. Make sure you cut the hole on top wide enough to get the ladle in and out as it can get messy trying to pour. It takes about 15 minutes and about $20 depending on your taste in vodka and you’ve got a great bring along to any occasion.

I'm actually eating some right now as Wegmans had some delicious looking quarter wedges wrapped up the other day

I just put the entire thing on a plate in the fridge and scoop off what I want into a bowl. It tastes like friggin ice cream and much better after a game of softball than just about anything else.

It takes time to answer questions, to sign autographs, to go talk to ex/future sponsors

When he’s on the course he admitted he thought less about the shot and more about his reaction after everything happened. People dont care if you’re a jerk if you’re winning. He got focused on rehabbing his image instead of winning tournaments.

He may, if its as busted as he says it is.

The issue is his short game and trying to alter his swing in a short time frame with limited practice.

When he revamped his swing with Butch and then with Haney, he went winless for 14-18 months each time while he was retolling his swing. When it clicked, he went on a huge tear, winning abot 30% of the time (phenomenal). This time, he tried to revamp in the middle of a personal crisis, didnt put the time in and it shows.

I think a lot of the field has caught up with him as well.

The younger guys are stronger than he is now, and even the older guys know that strength conditioning helps a lot more than anyone ever thought before. People have copied him so much that they are catching up to him.

I would say field catching up somewhat 15%, knee 60%, not having his head in the game 25%. I just pulled that out of my ass, but it sounds about right to me.

If you want to simplify it, I can point to one thing that has made a huge difference.

His putting. And that goes for most golfers. When you’re drainging anything inside 12 feet, you climb leaderboards fast. He used to be a top 3 clutch putter and probably top 15 putter overall. He’s awful now. The 2008 US Open against Rocco, there was no way he was missing either putt on 18 (72nd hole or playoff). Now, he doesnt even scare the hole.

Both.

And for some reason, along with his fulls wing, he altered his pitching, chipping and putting stroke, something he hasnt done before. He also changed putters, something he has rarely done.

Its like he decided to do a complete makeover from top to bottom (thought process, image, demeanor, swing etc) and forgot that sheer will and less effort wont keep him up top.

but max score on ACT is 36. If memory serves I got a pretty high score on language etc, but only got like a 20 in math, which really dragged my score down.

That was plenty good enough to get into school and qualify for my grant so I never retook it.

At least Landlord can crack a decent joke once in a while, this guy or girl has usurped the worst poster title
You know we once had a guy named Carlos Pena who was a journey man before he got here also
He was pretty much a bust before he got here and Maddon got a hold of him. Maddon has a way of squeezing every inch of potential out of players and that is one of the great talents of his. I mean remember Kotchman was once a highly thought of prospect for the Angels and was even traded pretty much straight up for Mark Texiera. So at one point in Kotchman’s career he was thought of very highly by some great managers.

David Roth: It is admittedly hard to write a sentence that is only about Joey Votto’s OBP and how that impacts You, The Reader. But fantasy baseball analysis is the wildest frontier of sportswriting out there – either ungrammatical calculation-y stuff of the “unless and until he’s convicted, he belongs in your starting lineup” variety, or cornballin’ bro-shtick. I read a thing from Matthew Berry earlier this week that was like 650 words on the narrative shortcomings of that “Mr. Snuggles” commercial that McDonald’s is running for its new 70oz. Caffeinated Diabetes Juice, and then an endorsement of Randy Wolf at the end.

Yes, I actually just crunched the numbers for every team's top two catchers this year with a couple of exceptions and I have him as the 5th best defensive catcher in MLB

This uses career rates, but he’s at 6.8 runs saved defensively a year slightly ahead of Wieters and a bit behind Yadier Molina. Top 10 are Marson, Jose Molina, Henry Blanco, Yadier Molina, Buster Posey, Matt Wieters, Ryan Hanigan, Humberto Quintero, Landon Powell, and Brian Schnieder followed closely by Pudge and Mauer. I was a bit shocked how well Wieters and Posey rated. I hope to write this up for Monday, pretty interesting stuff

It's certainly a smaller sample, he's been behind the dish for 4,337 PA

I based the total runs figure that his stuff spits out on a per 4,000 PA pace as it looks like a team’s catching stable generally sees around 6,000 PA a year. This means the starter gets about 2/3 of the PA. You can use whatever per rate you want, but this made sense to me.

If I had it to do again, I wouldn't have bought this car in this senario.

When I got it, I was working from home and needed a car, but because I wasn’t driving as much I wanted to buy something I wanted to drive. I lost that job about a month after I got it. If I was driving to work every day, I probably would have gotten something younger and cheaper with fewer miles instead of satisfying a vanity want with a bimmer.

David Raposa: Here is some high-quality fantasy baseball analysis: “[Joey Votto’s .476 OBP is] 50 points higher than the on-base percentage he posted a year ago but he has increased that mark each of his first four seasons in the majors so he should be able to keep up this pace.”

David Roth: That sentence is a joy to read. I’m so glad Rotoworld has Michael Ondaatje writing for them now.

David Raposa: How would you rejigger those bon mots, Mr. Professional Writer, Sir? “Hey, so this guy is getting on base like Barry Bonds, but he should be able to continue that ridiculous pace, so you can go ahead and play 13 Rajai Davises to get your SBs up.”

if I understand it correctly, you just take the exam.

by Suttree on May 13, 2011 3:18 PM EDT up reply actions  

Yep, but if you know the material well enough you pay for the CLEP in the subject, ace it, and get the credit for the class.

It winds up being a lot cheaper than enrolling in the class, so if you are pretty knowledgeable about a subject (maybe you just took AP American History in HS and remember a lot of it) then pay for the CLEP.

by JaxRaysGirl on May 13, 2011 3:20 PM EDT up reply actions  

You could also audit the class for free and then CLEP it if you're thinking ahead

Take 4-5 classes for a semester then audit 3-4 more when you feel like it while doing your own work on the side. CLEP out the following semester and essentially take almost 30 credits in a semester. Easy if you can take the time off to do it, but well worth it to essentially get an Associates in one year, Bachelor in 1.5 and then get a real job.

The caller said the boy, after removing the bulb from its socket, left the building and threw the bulb on the ground. When the bulb broke, the caller said the boy screamed "My electrolytes are down after the workout today…I fail"

Nursing job market is goofy right now, but if you're going to graduate in 2 years, you'll probably be in good shape.

Apparently, people coming straight out of college can't find work because they don't have experience; there are fewer positions than expected because older nurses are holding off retirement.

this should change within the next 24 months and go back to the normal “we don’t have enough jobs” situation that most people think exists.

When the Real Estate market started failing a few years ago, I considered going back to school for nursing.

There is a program at my alma mater that would take about 18 months. Then I got this job, so I put the thought on hold.

Most nurses couldn't make it through medical school

Plus Med school is like 10 yrs if you count the residency. Nursing you are out in 2 and can make $50-$70 a year.
I don’t think most like to do it, but there are not many professions that require 2 yrs of schooling for that salary and you are pretty much guaranteed a job somewhere.

Eh, nurses do important work.

They’re the ones that really keep hospitals going and can make the difference between an awesome place and a crappy place. The doctors are just the brains behind everything.

One of my high school friends is graduating this year from college…has an $80K/year nursing job waiting for her. It makes me feel so inferior.
