  1. Problem was, back then we had way too many outfielders. And no 3B to speak of. So it's a trade that I really don't fault Dipoto on.
  2. Shock after Junipero Serra statue vandalized days after sainthood declared
  3. High School Football Player Kicks Helmetless Opponent, Gets Attacked by Player's Family in Locker Room After Game
  4. Las Vegas, Quebec City set to take step in NHL expansion bidI still say it's just Vegas that gets the team. I think Quebec would then get a relocated team quickly.
  5. At this point, you might as well throw Reagins name in too. Seems that's the direction the search is going.
  6. More likely that JeDi trades Cano, waves his hand at Moreno, and tells him, this is the droid you are looking for. Moreno will instantly be convinced that this is the big splash needed, and pay the entire salary, since they have a 2b opening.
  7. And to think. If Shared Belief didn't get injured. And if could get 2014 Chrome, Moreno, and Bayern instead of tank wars versions. It could have been the epic of epic BC Classics.
  8. I would think it's more Bane vs Wilson than Reagins vs JeDi.
  9. 2014 Washington Nationals. 96-66 At this point I thought that they were bound to do great things this year. Young team, great talent. 2015 Washington Nationals 79-76. Not the great things I had in mind, but if Paps vs Harper deathmatch is a result. I'll take it.
  10. This Passenger Mistook A Plane Exit For A Toilet Door... And Tried To Open It At 30,000-Ft
  11. Chromecast 2 Launching September 29 -- New Specs & Features Detailed
  12. Iran's Rouhani: Assad gov't in Syria 'can't be weakened' Why is Iran making sense?
  13. Iraq Agrees to Share Intelligence on ISIS With Russia, Syria and Iran I think we are still trying to determine who's on first.
  14. Germany in a state of SIEGE: Merkel was cheered when she opened the floodgates to migrants. Now, with gangs of men roaming the streets and young German women being told to cover up, the mood's changing Ok, first, it's a daily mail article. So might not be the most honest. But where there is smoke, there usually is fire.
  15. Not going to argue, since it sounds like you know your shit. But AC (Alternating Current?) vs DC (Direct Current). Looking at the Edison vs Tesla wars that was on the history or discovery or sci fi or some cable channel. According to them. The benefits of AC were distance and efficiency. Where DC was power, but because of the grid, it got to be a nightmare since it couldn't travel long distances, and it was wiring hell. Their portrayal was, with AC, you could have an alternating current work from Niagra Falls to NY City. But DC you would have to have all these power stations in between to make it work. So what I'm getting at is. Electric companies want AC power. But for home use, when distance isn't a factor, DC is a better option. But because electric companies want it their way. They don't want anyone going DC. Even though in So Cal, DC is the way to go?
  16. Unfortunately, I don't have AC. But really on the westside, only need it a few days a year, and fans can do the trick. So, F all you power hoggers. With all due respect. Also, AC is really only needed when it's hot. Which is usually during the day. Which probably would mean your solar panels are getting plenty of sun. If you need your a/c at night. Global warming.
  17. **** you weather. It's 8000 degrees all week. And you decide an hour before the best blood moon that Southern California will probably see in decades that now is a good time for clouds.
  18. It's Japanese, not Chinese. And we all know, we were thinking it. Bordering on hoping it would come true, because who wouldn't like to be rich like Paris? And it's pretty much a factual statement, well except for the crabs. Then again, maybe that was factual also.
  19. What i think that the energy companies are fearing, and nothing really alludes to it. But remember Solar City is a sub/owned by Musk. And he is building the gigafactory in Nevada. This is his ace in the hole. Because even if the electric car doesn't hit the mainstream. Megawatt battery backup in the home can make the electric company obsolete overnight. (They announced a home version of it earlier, and it sold out) Especially in Southern California. I was actually thinking about this earlier when I saw something at Lowes. But you have solar up top. But instead of enough to keep you level, have 2-3 extra panels. (Which the electric company does not want you to do.) Have a megawatt battery recharged, to use overnight. And in those off days when you have no sun, and no more juice in the battery. Have a portable generator to recharge. Buh bye electric company.
  20. State solar users would lose savings if proposal is OK'd; SolarCity describes 'catastrophic' future In a area with sunshine 300+ days a year. California sure is trying to screw it up as much as possible.
  21. So just my impressions of SA opening day. Beholder. Beast of a horse. She looks good for the Breeders Cup. Big question is, can she win outside of California. But she has more than enough to take it to the boys. Songbird. Looked really good. Nyquist was ok. A bit green. Swipe and the Desourmeux/Desourmeux combination might be a horse to watch. If not for a bit of bumping and tight quarters, Swipe might have taken it.
  22. War on IS a focus of UN General Assembly amid stalemate It's been a year already since the US started leading the war to victory.
  23. If it was 150 US citizens. There would be a federal probe, with criminal charges. Thankfully our president is a bad example for Muslims, so we weren't there. /sarcasm
  24. Not sure if this helps. You might want to turn off this new iOS 9 setting if you don’t have unlimited data
