Ярославський напрямок Московської залізниці - залізнична лінія на північний схід від станції Москва-Пасажирська-Ярославська (Ярославський вокзал) Москви, що проходить по території Москви, Московської і Владимирської областей. Один з одинадцяти радіальних напрямків від Москви (один з десяти напрямків МЗ).

Головний хід від станції Москва-пас.-Ярославська до станції Александров, довжина - 111,4 км. Є початковою ділянкою основного ходу Транссибірської магістралі.

Ярославським напрямком прямують часті приміські електропотяги, а також потяги далекого прямування, що прямують до Ярославля, Котласу, Кінешми, Лабитнангі, Архангельська, Іваново, Кострома, Шар'я, Новий Уренгой, Череповця, Северодвинська, Усинська, Воркути, Вологди тощо.

Історія
Федір Васильович Чижов одним з перших висунув ідею будівництва залізничної магістралі від Москви до Ярославля.

18 серпня 1862 року було відкрито пасажирське, а 3 жовтня 1862 року - вантажний рух на ділянці Москва - Сергієв Посад.

В 1869 році було закінчено будівництво лінії Сергієв Посад - Ярославль.

В 1895 році було відкрито постійний рух по лінії Митищі - Щолково. В 1929 році лінію продовжили до Моніно, а в 1970-1972 - до Фрязево, лінія стала хордовою між радіальними напрямками.

Також в 1920-х побудували лінію Болшево - Івантєєвка, а в 1935 році продовжили її до Фрязино.

В 1929 році було електрифіковано ділянку Москва - Митищі. В 1930 році електрифікацію продовжили до Правди по основній лінії, і до Щолково по Монінській лінії. В 1931 році електрички пішли до Софріно, в 1933 році - до Загорська. Монінською лінією електрифікацію продовжили в 1934 році до Чкаловської, і в 1936 - до Моніно. В 1937 році електрифікували ділянку Загорськ - Александров, але на іншу напругу тому електрички до появи в 1947 році двосистемних моделей Ср і См по цій ділянці не ходили. Лінію Болшево - Фрязіно електрифікували в 1948 році.

В 1956 - 1958 роках побудована лінія Софріно - Красноармійськ.

В 1987 - 1992 роках роках було остаточно демонтовано Бескудніківську залізницю, що з'єднувала станцію Лосиноострівська зі станцією Бескудніково Савеловського напрямку МЗ.

22 листопада 1994 року була завершена електрифікація лінії Софріно - Красноармійськ.

З 1997 року не функціонує і до 2001 року остаточно демонтовано лінію Митищі - Пирогово.

Опис
Відноситься до Московсько-Курського регіону Московської залізниці, всі роздільні пункти входять до Московсько-Курського центру організації роботи залізничних станцій ДЦС-1 Московської дирекції управління рухом.

До складу Ярославського напрямку входять:
 Головний хід: 111,4-кілометрову ділянку від Москви-пас.-Ярославської до станції Александров (Александров-1), який переходить далі в лінію Північної залізниці на Ярославль і далі. Частина приміських електропоїздів прямують далі Александрова до станції Балакирево. Ділянка Москва-Ярославська - Митищі чотириколійна, Митищі - Пушкино триколійна (будується 4-а колія), далі двоколійна.
 При цьому ділянка Пост 81 км - Александров є поєднаним з Великим кільцем МЗ
 Хордова лінія Митищі - Фрязево (примикання до Горьківського напрямку МЗ). Двоколійна, крім триколійної ділянки Підлипки-Дачні - Болшево. Частина потягів далекого прямування на Горьківський напрямок прямує з Москва-пас.-Ярославська по цій лінії; всі приміські електропоїзди по лінії прямують від Москва-пас.-Ярославська.
 Тупикове відгалуження Болшево - Фрязино, одноколійна.
 Тупикове відгалуження Софріно - Красноармійськ, одноколійна.

Рухомий склад для приміського пасажирського сполучення надають моторвагонні депо ТЧ-10 Москва-2, ТЧ-12 Александров.

Основні колії Ярославського напрямку повністю електрифіковані постійним струмом. Всі пункти зупинки обладнані високими платформами.

В 2000-х роках були повністю реконструйовані за допомогою параметра турнікетів (АСОКУПЕ) зупинкові пункти на лінії Москва - Митищі. В 2008 році встановлені турнікети з повною реконструкцією на станціях Болшево, Пушкино, платформі Воронок і з частковою реконструкцією на платформі Северянин.

В 2015 році планується установка турнікетів на станціях Александров-I, Фрязино-Пасажирська, Івантєєвка, і на платформі Маленковська

З 2008 року на напрямку проводиться масова заміна електропоїздів на нові потяги серії ЕД4М.

About Aberdeen
Set between the rivers Don and Dee in the North-East of Scotland, Aberdeen is a prosperous, cosmopolitan city with an international population. With an estimated population of 300,000, Aberdeen is Scotland's third most populous city that is rich in culture, with a range of museums, art galleries, cinemas, concert venues,cafes, bars, nightclubs, restaurants, shops and malls nearby which means this small city is packed full of things to see and do.
Aberdeen was named the 2nd safest city in the entire United Kingdom in The Alternative UK University City League Table 2017 and the second most affordable city for students in the UK by Natwest in 2017.
Aberdeen is also often referred to by its friendly locals as 'The Granite City', and 'The Silver City with the Golden Sands' because almost all of its buildings are made of the local grey stone, granite, and the city has spectacular sandy coastlines to the east (not to mention some of the UK's highest mountains to the west).
It is far milder here than one might expect for the northern location. The East coast is actually the sunniest area in Scotland, where sunshine hours average around 1,500 per year, ideal for the outdoor and active lifestyle which attracts huge numbers of people to the area throughout the year.
With the Grampian Mountains and Cairngorms National Park right on the doorstep, there are plentiful opportunities for mountain biking, mountain climbing, skiing, snowboarding and white water rafting within easy reach of the city.

Trade Deadline Aftermath: Dodgers Need To Take Risks if They Want To Win The World Series
Scott Andes July 31, 2019 July 31, 2019 Trade Rumors	65
This year's trade deadline came and went with the Dodgers doing little to nothing to improve their roster for the postseason stretch. The only moves the Dodgers made was acquiring a utility infielder who is currently on the injured list (Jedd Gyorko) who batted .196 in 62 plate appearances in an injury marred campaign for the Cardinals and a 30-year old journeyman left handed reliever (Adam Kolarek) from the Tampa Bay Rays. The Dodgers did not trade for Felipe Vazquez or any other reliever. They did not acquire any other player or pitcher of quality. They did not acquire any other player or pitcher period.
It's a somewhat frustrating result. Understandably the Dodgers needed very little improvements for a team that has the best record in baseball and a 15 game lead in the NL West. The lineup is elite. The starting rotation is very good. The bench is solid. The lone area of need was the bullpen, specifically middle relief and the Dodgers were unable to plug the gaping hole in their middle relief corp.
I understand that holding onto top prospects is a good thing. The Dodgers were unwilling to part with Gavin Lux, Dustin May or Tony Gonsolin. Lux may have gotten them Vazquez, but it's possible the Pirates may have wanted more. Before you start to talk about Andrew Friedman not wanting to trade prospects understand that that's not entirely accurate. Friedman has traded many prospects over the last several seasons for guys like Alex Wood, Manny Machado and Yu Darvish among others.
That's not the issue. The issue is that the front office and ownership are simply not willing to make serious win now type moves in order to help solidify a championship. Machado was only acquired because Corey Seager was out and the only other win-now move you can point to is the Darvish deal which did not work out for the Dodgers. Look, I understand that it's a tough predicament. If you trade Lux for Vazquez and he goes onto become an all-star with Pittsburgh and the Dodgers don't win a World Series then the Dodgers look horrible. If the Dodgers don't trade Lux and Yimi Garcia serves up several home runs in the late innings of the fall classic then the Dodgers look even worse. It's a scenario where there are no guarantees.
That doesn't mean the Dodgers shouldn't take the risk. Look at the Astros. They've already gotten their ring and are vying for another championship. They've already rolled the dice getting Justin Verlander and acquiring Zack Greinke. They've had to trade away a big haul of prospects to do it, and it worked out fantastically for them. Greinke should work out well for them too, giving them a formidable rotation in October.
Do you think the Astros regret trading away prospects for Verlander? I would guess no. The Dodgers don't need rotation help, they do however need a lot of bullpen help. Their bullpen is below average at best and Jansen is not what he used to be. Can the Dodgers win a World Series with a below average bullpen? Is Yimi Garcia or Baez the answer to Jose Altuve and Carlos Correa? Is Caleb Ferguson or Adam Kolarek able to retire Aaron Judge in the World Series? Is Dylan Floro the answer to Ronald Acuna Jr.? I'm going to guess no.
The Dodgers have a poor bullpen and without a lockdown or reliable reliever then it's going to be difficult for them to hold late inning leads in October. Certainly Vasquez doesn't guarantee a championship but having a shutdown reliever greatly improves their chances.
Sometimes you have to roll the dice if you want to take home a title. This isn't all on Friedman either. Guggenheim has to take responsibility as well. Either you play it safe and rely on internal options, which aren't very good, or you take a risk and flip a top prospect or two for an elite reliever that can shore up the glaring need on your roster. If the Dodgers want to win a championship now before their foundational players such as Clayton Kershaw, Justin Turner, and Kenley Jansen get too old, (they're already getting old) then bold moves have to be made.
Lux and May are great, but championships are forever. If the Dodgers don't win the World Series because of a poorly built bullpen then it's squarely on the shoulders of Friedman, Stan Kasten and Mark Walter. Surely they can still win the World Series this year, but it's going to be an uphill climb with a lackluster bullpen. If the Dodgers want to win a championship then they're going to have to stop playing it safe and take some risks.

Yueh_Fei says:
Part of me is ok with this. Friedman has a lousy track record at big trades and big FA signings. He is very good at fringe signings.
The other part of me is thinking, but will the Dodgers let the kids pitch in October? If Gonsolin and May catches fire in September, perhaps they could be like what Kelly and Wacha brought to the Cardinals back in 2013? But we have not been pitching our kids, although I think this could be changing fast with how they've been handling May, Gonsolin and Urias in the last two weeks.
We have a huge lead on August 1. Give our kids a chance to face the pressure.
Without knowing what teams were asking for I can't criticize the FO. I heard what the ask by Arizona from the Yankees was for Ray (Clint Frazier plus 3 more players). At one point I saw on twitter that the Dodgers and Pirates were having a stare down over Lux. What we don't know is who else the Pirates wanted in the deal. Were they asking for K-bear or May as well? I wonder if we are seeing younger players get more of a chance this year because Zaidi is gone.
I am fine with leaving things as is. I think our "big 3" Ryu, Buehler, Kershaw matches up well with anyone even including the Astros. I put Urias and Maeda in the bullpen with Jansen, Kelly, Baez. If we add one or two youngsters, fine. But we did not need to make changes.
I really don't know about the whole asking and staring thing. The best FOs get it done. Ours is good, just not the best. When I know I don't have the best, I like them to just go what they do best and don't take big risks.
You want to see the best? Look at the Astros. And why weren't we dealing with the Blue Jays? That FO is a joke. We seriously could have landed Stroman and Sanchez for guys like Connor Wong and DJ Peters …..
Freidman does some explaining as to what happened. He said they were very aggressive going after the players they had targeted. Everyone knows that Vazquez was at the top of the list. The Pirates asking price was just more than the Dodgers were willing to pay. They never backed off of wanting Lux and at least 1 other of the Dodgers top 4 guys, and that was not going to happen. You can read about it on MLBtraderumors.com. As far as some of the other relievers available, Giles, because of his elbow issues was off the table. The Yankees basically had the same problem. They never really lined up prospect wise with another team. I think Friedman did what the ownership wanted and what they all felt was best for the Dodgers in both the present and the future. No single move guarantees a World Series championship. How many thought when Boston made a seemingly insignificant trade for a RH bat, Steve Pearce, that he would be the WS MVP? Guys can and do suddenly out of no where get a lot better than they were thought to be. Garcia could suddenly start striking out a lot of hitters. It has happened before. Greinke makes the Astro's deeper and a lot better, but he does not automatically mean they win it all. And check the record. Over the last few years, the Dodgers have owned Greinke. They killed him on opening day. So I am not panicking simply because they did not trade their future away for a maybe. I want to see Lux and May and Gonsolin in LA for a long time. And next year our catching tag team could be Smith and Ruiz. How about that?
PaulDodgerFan1965 says:
Michael, correct on no single move guarantees a WS. Getting Vasquez would have been fine but even with him and or another top reliever, we cannot compete with the offenses that the Astros or Yankees have.
Michael N Norris says:
Maybe not, but the Dodgers have more homers and a bigger plus run differential than both of them. They can outpitch the Yankees starters easily because their rotation sucks. The Dodger offense is pretty good and what's more, pretty efficient. Yanks try to bludgeon you to death. As for the Astros, they got stronger, but the Dodgers do pretty good offensively against Greinke. They have beaten Verlander in the series. And worrying about the Yankees and Astros is a little premature since they and the Dodgers have to get there first. Teams that are on a roll that time of year usually they The Dodgers need to take care of their own business. Then take them on one opponent at a time. Looking ahead like that does not do anyone any good. The Dodgers are concentrating on the Padres right now.
Still, Michael, the Dodgers will be facing much better elite pitching in the PS and WS. Correct, we must get there first. As for this deadline, let me say that many are questioning why the Pirates went to extremes in their demands while keeping a bonafied reliever on a lst place team like theirs. Pirates could have gotten a good haul of prospects from the Dodgers not named lux, May or Smith. Heck I might have parted with Ruiz at this time but it's not my call. i also would have considered moving Joc or Beaty if that helped get a deal done, but now it's too late.
I have to trust AF's judgement on this. He knows what the price was and we do not. I do not care for a lot of the moves he has made since he got here. But in this case I kind of agree if the price was high. Huntington, the Buc's GM, said before the deadline was even close that it would take a huge deal for them to even consider moving him and he fully expected Vazquez to be pitching in the playoffs for the Pirates in the future. That alone leaves me to believe he was never serious about trading him in the first place. With the Dodgers not really targeting guys like Dyson and some of the other pieces moved, it left AF with a narrower window for a chance at a player who would be a real difference maker. They were linked with Vazquez, Greene, and Diaz. From what I gathered the talks on Greene were not ever that serious and the other 2 were too expensive in AF's mind. So, I for now will wait and see how we finish and only then can any of us make a judgement on whether he did the right thing or not.. Remember this, our staff is not chopped liver. There are some good arms on this team. Kelly has been better, Floro looked like he did earlier in the year last night. Yimi got out of a jam. Our starters are every bit as good as the Astros and Braves and Nats, they are better than the Yankees for sure. And remember also, they have owned Greinke since he went to Arizona. The clobbered him on opening day and in his only WS decision against the Dodgers, Verlander lost…Joc took him deep. Moving Joc was never an option. You do not trade the 3rd best power hitter on your team for a reliever. I have never seen that done. They can still make trades. They just have to be players on a minor league contract. You can get a gem that way sometimes. Twins made that kind of trade today.

Bluefan4Life says:
Since AF failed to make a decent trade before the deadline, and the end of the "Pederson Experiment", tonight we see the debut of the latest in a series of low budget acquisitions…. Dodger Fans, tonight we are showcasing the "Andy Friedman Trade Deadline Dumpster All-Stars".
Who knows, it just might work! I'm game for anything, at this point.
Poor Pederson will again be relegated to being a spectator against lefties, and maybe righties too. We cannot say the Dodgers did not give him every opportunity to play.
Kershaw gives up another HR. This time to Renfroe. Pederson as stated will no longer see time at 1st. Belli will be there against RHP. I would think Joc may be trade fodder this winter. His lack od versatility is going to over shadow his power bat,
Kersh continues to give up the dingers. Sad to see him struggle… he was so dominant before. His efforts to reinvent himself are not paying dividends. Way too much money tied into him now. This will hurt the team, in the long run.
I think Pederson will end up being traded. Too bad his stock has dwindled… Dodgers waited too long, and probably will not get much in return for him now.
Come on Blue….the guy is 9-2. He has a ERA in the mid 2's. Yeah, he still gives up some home runs and he is not as dominant as he was, but he is still a lot better than most pitchers in the league. He also is 1 K behind Koufax on the career Dodger K list.
And the Dodgers keep rolling along. Kersh gets 10th win, and passes Koufax in K's. Kersh was not dominating, and gave up a dinger and 5 walks, but prevailed.
The kids continue to contribute, topped by the Fresh Prince's Grand Salami! Beaty adds two hits and a RBI.
Offensively, Belli and Seager looking better, and Pollock continues to impress. Negrón so far proving to be a worthwhile dumpster find, offensively and defensively.
Crazy lineup tonight, but a win is a win, I guess. They have to take each game, one at a time…. take care of their own destiny.
Looking forward to seeing May, tomorrow.
As far as Smith, I do not think he will be eligible for ROY next season…. he might have too many days in the bigs, or too many at-bats rhis season. I think he might be eligible this season, but probably has no chance, because he came up too late. Anybody know for sure?
I think Kershaw is doing fine. 16 quality starts, and also getting in at least 6 innings in every start this season, is great production.
I hope he keeps this up all through the post season.
Hmmm…has everyone seen the number of HRs Verlander has given up? And no one talks smack about him like they do about Kershaw….
I, personally do not care about what Verlander is doing. I'm sure his fans are feeling the same pain as we do. My main concern is what our Dodgers' Pitchers are doing, not only Kershaw. Including Maeda, including the Dodger Bullpen, including Jansen.
I think we are not really accustomed to seeing Kershaw with no command. He was so dominate…. once he got ahead of the batters, it was usually lights out. Now, he gives up dingers with two strikes on the batter, last night he walked 5 in 6 innings. Kershaw set the bar high for himself, and now he must try and get creative to regain his dominance.
The perfectionist he is, you can see the frustration on his face, because he knows he is better than what he is delivering. This frustration only fuels the Fan's frustration.
AZ has been considering moving to Henderson Nevada. Negotiations on hold right now. AZ can leave Chase in 2022. Belli slams # 35 to tie the game.
Wow… Henderson? Hope it is a covered stadium. Gonna' be hot out there, just like AZ. They probably will have to build a new stadium.
Freidman was just on the TV broadcast explaining what happened at the deadline. I understand more now why he did not pull the trigger on a trade. Kershaw just tied Koufax on the all time K list.
Can you paraphrase for those of us who missed it?
Michael N.Norris says:
I'll try Bluto. What it came down to was this, they had targeted about 6 players. He said they were very aggressive in their pursuit of those guys. He did not name who they were, but he said that the Dodgers offers were what they deemed to be the value of the player. The asking price of these guys was higher than what the Dodgers felt they were worth. In his words, you paid 1.40$ for a 1.00$ value. They were working so hard on these players, that the other's that were not on their radar were never really an option, guys that did get moved like Dyson and Martin. He also said that at the end of the year they might look back and be very glad they did not trade this guy or that guy. Made a lot of sense. It also gives them a chance to evaluate what they really have. They are going to do it or die with the players they have available, majors and minors right now. They asked specifically about Gyorko. AF said because of no August deadline, he was the kind of depth player they would normally have picked up then. With Freese out, it was more of a need now. By the way, Gyorko was in the dugout talking to Roberts during the game. What it boiled down to was who ever they were talking to wanted a lot more than they were willing to give up.
No problem Bluto. Also, someone asked about Smith and winning the Rookie of the year award. The rules state that he would no longer be a rookie next year if he spends 45 days on the major league roster, gets 130 at bats or pitches 45 innings. Smith could conceivably win the award this year. But he would have to pretty much keep up the pace he is on and surpass those who have been in the league all year and are performing at a high level. As much as he is playing now, he will easily surpass those limits to keeping his rookie status for next year. One rookie I know of got a mid season call up and won the award. Steve Howe was called up from AA and won in 1980…so anything is possible.
Thanks for validating my assumptions on Smith's eligibility for ROC, either next year or this year. He would really have to go on a terror, just to beat out Verdugo or Tatis.
Not good news on Barnes' struggles in OKC. He just put way too much pressure on himself. I don't think he has any value left in the trade market, either. Although Pederson has been relegated back to original role as part-time pinch hitting outfielder and starter against righties, I do not think he will be traded, because his trade value is probably really low right now. Nobody really would want a one-dimensional, part time player…. maybe just a very slim chance at being a DH against righties, but he has been even struggling against righties too, recently.
I hope May has a successful debut, tonight.
Pederson has one more year of team control and is an unusual player in modern baseball, a true one-skill specialist — power against right-handed pitching. But that's very valuable!
And he's fine in left field, so I don't see the need to move him while he remains under control.
I call BS on Friedman. It was the kind of trade season like others, despite the format change. Other teams were able to get deals done. Friedman clearly was not prepared for the change and focused on too few targets. That's how I feel. We have a good but not great FO. In this case I'd rather them stick to the fringe approach and I'd respect them more if they just admit this instead of feeding us BS.
Barnes is 3-16 down at OKC. Not very encouraging. They have another guy on the roster down there, Ben Moore who is a catcher. He is on what they call the temporary inactive list. Another question right now is who gets sent down today when they activate May. My guess is JT Chargois. Everyone else is essential unless they put someone on the IL. By the way, they can still acquire players in trade. As long as they are on minor league deals and have not been on the roster this year. Twins did that today.
Blue, yes, he would really need to tear it up, but remember, Alonso is in that mix with Tatis, as is Riley of the Braves. Right now I would say Tatis and Alonso are the front runners with Alonso because of his awesome power and the Mets belated run at a wild card spot is ahead of Tatis since the Pads are totally out of contention. If Verdugo had kept up what he started out doing, he might have had a shot. Right now he is way behind those other guys.
Well, May Day in August did not materialize. Maybe it was nerves, maybe it was lack of offensive support, maybe it was lack of defensive support. … maybe "All of the above"!
May was a bit wild, threw way too many pitches, but made it to 5 innings, before the wheels fell off the wagon in the sixth. He did work himself out of a couple of jams, by inducing two easy DP's.
I was a bit thrown by the lineup and positional assignments tonight. The Dodgers decided to go with a "Lottery Lineup"…Players playing out of position. You would think that DR would give the Kid a solid defensive lineup to back him up. Why did he play Negrón in Center? Why did he play White at 1B, and Leadoff? Why did he play Muncy at 2B? I knew DR was probably seeing what options he has with his team, but May deserved a stronger lineup of regulars, playing their best positions. It was the wrong time to be experimenting, DR!
Result, was defensive miscues… two misplays by Negrón in CF, and one costly error at 1B by White, and a flat offense who managed only 4 hits, and 8 KO's. Only 0-1 RISP, because they could only manage to get one runner beyond 2nd base. Belli hit his 36th, a two-run Belli Bomb, but that was basically all the offense they could muster.
Well, all in all, not too bad of a debut for May, but really too bad that his teammates could not back him up.
Yeah. A very interesting lineup. If I had been told that lineup would be used in game 111,I would have guessed the Dodgers were in last place and the season had been a disaster.
😂 I think May would have preferred his OKC lineup…. Dodgers should have called up the whole team!
Or that the Dodgers are so far ahead that they're experimenting with the kids.
I think we continue to throw things out there in August and especially the young pitchers plenty of chances to pitch their way out of trouble. I like how DR handled Dustin May last night and also giving Buehler a long leash tonight after he gave up the HR in the 8th.
White and Negron are far from being kids, and I believe Doc left May in for a couple hitters too long. I was impressed with May's stuff and most of all his poise out there. He did not get rattled when the error was made, or when Negron failed to run down that long double. He has some good stuff. But Dave should have pulled him. I like his nickname too, Code Red. I like it a lot better than the one that was going around on Twitter, Gingergaard.
Hey all you Old-Timers….
Remember the 25-cents programs, and the vendor barking out, "Scorecards here! You won't know the players without a scorecard!"
I think Dodger Stadium is going to have to bring those scorecards back. How the heck are we supposed to keep up with all these roster changes?
Well Bluefan, I miss those too. But now when you come into the park, at the parking toll booth, they give you a little booklet with a scorecard in the middle. Also these days they wear their names on the back….Unless you can't read, pretty hard to miss. Other things I miss…..1$ Frozen Malts, 50 cent peanuts, 1.50$ Dodger dogs, and picture packs that were 50 cents and Dodger yearbooks which were the same. Now the yearbooks are 10 bucks. Which is kinda high.
Michael, I started going to Dodger games as a kid back in 1966. and I am fortunate to have those storied Dodger yearbooks they had for very little $$ back then. Starting with the 1965 Yearbook. they are individually wrapped now for safe keeping , along with a few Dodger vinyl LP's !! One of which is the 1981 Highlights which included the WS win.
I am a little older than you. My first one was in 1958 at the Coliseum. Cardinals-Dodgers. Big D was pitching. I have a 1958 that I bought a few years ago. I also have a 1963 World Series program and one from 1965. Over the years with all the moves and such a lot of my older ones have disappeared. I now and then find one I want on eBay. I bought a 1983 the other day. In great shape too. I also collect baseball cards and Dodger Media guides. The newest I have is last years. But I also have some from the late 70's and early 80's. I love the yearbooks, but the media guides have a ton of info in them that I like. Listing all of their trades and such. You can find the same info on the internet nowadays, but back then you could not. The pride an joy of my collection for me anyway is a complete team set of the 1959 World Champion Dodgers. The high number's were hard to find, but I got them. The most expensive was Koufax. The hardest to find was Art Fowler. I just a few months ago, realized I did not have a Johnny Klippstein. I found one on eBay for about 5 bucks and now I have all of the Topp's 1959 Dodgers. I also have a original Fleer card of Zack Wheat from 1960 when they made a great players set.
May was doing ok. Too many pitches, but Roberts did what he does best. He waited too long to pull him. After that second ball was hard hit and since the kid is a rookie and you do not really know what you are going to get from him, he had Baez warming. He should have pulled him after the second hit. The offense has not solved Lauer yet. The guy after last night is 4-0 against LA>
DR either pulls them too soon, or leaves them in too long.
Yup, those old days are long gone. Do those scorecards have the full, current 40-man team roster? The way the Dodgers keep shuffling guys around, I don't know how they can keep it current!😂
Take your Ipad with you and check the Dodgers web site. The roster listed is the current 25 man active roster. Those pages are inserts usually.
The Dodgers need 49K fans per game to reach 4,000,000! Up to today they average 48,608, that's close.
Very doable. They have 26 home games left. 8 on this homestand. with the Cardinals, and the Dirt Bags coming in the attendance should be good. They also have a bobble head giveaway when they play St Louis. Those usually draw sell out crowds. This time it is Kenley. A lot of players being claimed on waivers, so even though the deadline has come and gone, teams are updating their rosters. Ty Blach, who had some pretty decent outings against the Dodgers was claimed off of SF's roster by the Orioles, and Justin Garneau, who was waived by the Angels when they claimed C Max Stassi, was claimed by the A's. Lots of relievers out there. The one who intrigues me some is Tony Sipp. Sipp is a lefty who despite a sub 2 ERA this year was released by the Astros. I remember the guy from when he was a D-Back. Pretty good at getting lefty's out.
Michael, I was thinking along those lines that although no trades can be made now, Dodgers certainly can search the waiver wire and claim a player who may come along an d be of service this year and next.
I have a feeling that AF does that almost everyday. When you think about it, he got some of his players that way, including Chargois.
Does anybody know if a player acquired after the deadline can be added to the playoff roster if they are replacing an injured player?
I was at Roy Campanella Night, at the Colosseum. I will never forget holding up that match, when the lights dimmed. I wish I still had that ticket stub.
Blue….any player who is on the roster before September 1st is eligible to be on the playoff roster. Same goes for if they are replacing an injured player.
Needed to give myself something to do today, so I decided to look back over the years and find players who were pretty decent who came to the Dodgers at the end of their careers. Some very interesting players on the list. This is just the LA era. Bill Skowron power hitting 1st baseman of the Yankees came to LA in 63. He was part of the team that swept the Yanks in 63. He had a homer in the series. But his regular season was not very good. Rocky Colovito in 68, Jim Bunning, Dick Stuart, Marquis Grissom, Garret Anderson, Bill Madlock, Willie Randolph, Gary Carter, Bobby Abreu, Hank Aguirre, Camilio Pascual, Dick Farrell, Hubie Brooks, Enos Cabell, Robin Ventura, Wes Covington, Mark Belanger, strictly a glove guy, Tim Wallach, Bobby Bonilla, one of the worst trade returns in LA history. Ricky Henderson, Jim Thome, Todd Zeile, Hoyt Wilhelm, Eric Davis, David Wells, Frank Robinson, Alston really disliked this guy, one reason he was only a Dodger for a year. Juan Marichal, yep, for about 2 months he was a Dodger. Greg Maddux, Colletti actually got him twice. Al Oliver, only Dodger to ever wear #0. Boog Powell for 50 games. Neither he nor Thome hit a HR as a Dodger. Unusual since they were both huge power guys. Tommy Agee, 69 Mets WS hero, Billy North, Otis Nixon, Mike Young, he retired after that one stint in LA. Jimmy Rollins, started off like a house on fire and wilted allowing Corey Seager to make his MLB debut. Bronson Arroyo, never even threw a pitch for LA, Carlos Ruiz, traded AJ Ellis for him because of his playoff experience, and finally, Curtis Granderson obtained for the same reason. Total disaster in the playoffs and the WS.
Funny we were kind of discussing this at our house the other day. Quite an impressive list of ballplayers. Dodgers were somewhat a Heaven's Gate for the MLB Retirement Home.
Micheal, you are true fan of Baseball, with a lot of knowledge of the game, and it's history.
Great game by Buehler tonight. Complete game and 15 K's. He made sure the 4 runs held up, and avoided the call to the bullpen. Offense still struggled with 3-11 RISP.
Thanks Blue. That's one of the reasons I buy the media guides. Kind of fun to see who has been a Dodger and they also list the numbers players have worn in LA. Did you know that it is 30 years since anyone was issued # 34? That's right, 1990 was Fernando's last year as a Dodger. Well 29, but I doubt it gets issued again for a while. They may as well retire it. No one has worn it in so long. Boog Powell wore # 22 as a Dodger. Some players ended up with their favorite numbers and others did not. Robinson did get his familiar # 36 in LA. I left Richie Allen off of that list because he was not at the end of his career. But he also only lasted one year in blue. Alston despised him from everything I have read. While Allen had a decent year, 23 homers, 90 ribbies and a .295 average, it was not the kind of year the Dodgers expected and he did not get along well with Alston. We all know he was traded to the White Sox for Tommy John. He played 6 more years after leaving LA.
Michael, I remember the deals that got Richie Allen and a catcher by the name of Dike Sims for the 1971 Season. The reason was that believe it or not, the Dodgers were dead last in all of MLB in 1970 in HR's with only 87 !!! Sims never did much but 1971 was before the Dodgers completed their next adjustments to the OF dimensions. CF was at 400 FT. that year and the fences were about 2 FT. taller than they are today and 5 FT further back and I think that made a difference.
I am glad #34 has not been issued, and the Dodgers have honored him by doing so. It will be hard to find anyone who could wear that number as well as Fernando did. I think they did the same for #30, until Wills was asked, and gave Roberts the OK to wear it.
Does Fernando still have a chance to get into the HOF? Don't they have a veterans committee selection? I was shocked when he was bypassed. He certainly deserves it.
Correction, I think…
Darrel Thomas was the first to use Wills' #30, after the Dodgers stopped issuing it. Thomas asked Wills if he could use it. I think Thomas was Wills' protege at the time.
I think DR asked Wills for permission, as well.
Cleo James wore number 30 in 1968. When Wills came back to the Dodgers he got the number back. Then Derrel Thomas wore it. They did not need permission from Maury. Since then it has been worn a lot. Tudor, Offerman, among many others. As for Fernando, the only way he gets elected is by the Veteran's committee. And here is where the arguments start. Although he was very good over his first 6 seasons, he was very mediocre over the last 11. He just was no where near the same pitcher. His last 4 years as a Dodger he had 2 seasons where he was at .500 and 2 losing years. His ERA over that time was close to 4.00. He finished a career 173-153. That's really not hall worthy. Up until 1987, he was a complete game machine. Reaching double figures 6 times and leading the league 3 times. Fernando finished with very respectable career stats. But he only won 20 once. He won the Cy Young in his rookie year and never won another. As for the voting itself, he was off of the ballot after 2 years and never got more than 6 % of the vote. Go to Baseball reference . com and at the bottom of they page they do a HOF comparison. Pitchers he was most like. All of them were good, but not great. The guys he is compared to are Holtzman, Pascual, Langston, Zito, Steib, Viola, Sutcliffe, Leiter, Buhl, and A.J. Burnett. Granted, Fernando was and is an icon in L.A. He did some great things in that uni. But over all, if you really look at the stats and compare him to pitchers in the hall, he falls way short. I think if his number gets retired it will be along the lines of why they retired Gilliam's. Long service to the team. The Dodgers have a thing now called the Legends of Dodger baseball and Fernando was just inducted into that. There will be plaques in the new CF entrance with those guys on them. SO far that's Garvey, Newk and El Toro.
Makes sense, Michael. But Fernando, like Wills, had done so much for Baseball. Wills was one of the pioneers in the running game that brought excitement to the game. Fernando did so much for the popularity of the sport. He brought hordes of fans to the game, especially in LA. And also was one of the pioneers that helped open the doors for the international player pool.
It is a shame that they will never make it to the Hall. It is nice that the Dodgers have the Legends of Dodger Baseball.
What Fernando did benefited the Dodgers more than baseball. He was the first Latino superstar. He was their first hero. Much like when the Dodgers traded for Adrian Gonzalez. As good as he was as a hitter, Gonzalez brought the Latino's back to the ballpark. That's the bottom line. Up until Fernando debuting in 1980, the Dodgers never really had a star quite like him. He had charisma, he was fun to watch and he did some amazing things that rookie year. Had he kept that kind of thing up for even 10 years instead of six, he would have been a shoo-in for the hall. The years after he left the Dodgers were not that good. As for Wills, he definitely brought something back to the Dodger way of baseball, but he was a couple of years behind a guy named Aparicio. The 59 Sox had the nickname of the Go-Go Sox. He stole more than 50 3 years in a row. Wills never did that. What brought Maury into the spotlight was 1962. He stole 104 bases. No one, not even Ty Cobb had done that ever. In the nine years after 1965, he only passed 50 once. He had 94 in 1965. Unlike Fernando, he spent 15 years on the HOF ballot, the way it used to be, now it is 10. He never got more than 40% of the vote. Aparicio had a higher career WAR than Maury, 55.8 to 39.7. Aparicio is in the hall. Another guy fans cannot understand why he is not in is Garvey. Garvey spent 15 years on the ballot and never received more than 42% of the vote. He also has a lower career WAR than Wills. By comparison, Gil Hodges, who in my book has been royally screwed in HOF elections, was on 15 years and his highest vote was 63%. Gil should have been in a long time ago. He was pretty much the best 1st baseman of his era. He was also a huge influence on the clubhouse and a gold glove first baseman many times. He also won a WS as a manager and died way too soon. He has been considered by the Vets committee and fallen short. But the next time his name comes up he should make it. He was a classy ballplayer, and very good. Tony Perez, who is in the hall had similar stats.
Where the duck is everyone?
Best team in majors! Great young players!
And we have three people posting (myself not included)
Bluto
I am here but just letting AF have his day. Lots of positive thoughts for him. I just hope he delivers.
Don't be so scarce there Pack….Martin getting hot now, another homer and he doubles his output for the year.
It's no different than any other year in that regard Pack!
Make yourself be heard
Dodger pitchers today cannot hold a lead. Maeda had a 3 run cushion and gave up 5. Urias was given a 1 run lead when Pollock homered and proceeded to make and error, walk a batter and give up a game tying single to Machado. Hosmer flied out for a sac fly, and Kelly came in and struck out Renfroe and got Myers to pop out. Pads lead now 10-7 as Chargois has given up 3 in the 8th. Offense has been ok, but the pitching today has been pitiful. And that includes Urias. I do not trust Maeda in that roll anymore. He does not attack the zone. He did the first two innings today and then when the leadoff hitter got on in the 3rd, he got out of his game and started nibbling. He really came unglued when the ump did not call a pitch at the bottom of the zone a strike and the guy walked. He then threw a pitch right down the pipe and Hosmer hit a grand slam. Stripling will be back this week and Ryu is only missing one start. Maeda should go to the pen. He is much more effective down there.
Wow….did not see that one coming. They beat Yates. Pederson doubled. Verdugo hit a groundball to the right that should have got Pederson to 3rd, but he was thrown out by Hosmer. Seager hit into what looked like a easy double play. Urias bobbled the ball and he was safe. 1st and 2nd, and Muncy hit a double down the RF line, his 4th hit of the day and both Verdugo and Seager scored….11-10 Dodgers. Baez with the win, and Yates is now 0-3.
74-40!
I remember discussing if 90 wins was being overly optimistic
They can reach 100 this year. They have 48 games left. They play the Cardinals this week. Cardinals have been in a funk the last week, but they have gotten a one of their key players back in Carpenter. Wednesday's game is on YouTube. Lead over the Giants is now 17 games.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Ramira M from Love it. Wish I could get one for every room. This is amazing. We live in a dusty climate and I couldn't smell anything but dirt and dust, turned this on and literally within minutes my nose was a happy camper. Also, our skin was no longer so itchy and dry after several days. You can tell a difference when it's off, even for a short period of time. My daughter wants one for school and one for home. One of the best buys ever.
Rated 4 out of 5 by T. Mitchell from Great Product- Even better Customer Service I brought this for when the baby has a cold or just that dry air cough. It really exceeded my expectations. It gets the room nice and comfortable in a short time. I love the adjustable humidity control and it last for more than 24 hours on high. Once I turn it down it does last and last on one filling. The biggest problem is that the adjustable nozzle on top is a pain to keep up with. I always forget it's not attached and then when I tip it over i drop it. Thankfully I have always found that spout. Recently the spring on the bottom of the filter popped off and I couldn't get it back on. I called customer service and was very happy to get someone in the us who picked up immediately and knew exactly what I needed when I asked how I could buy a replacement. The rep was very nice and quick and she said as a courtesy she is sending me a replacement by Fedex. I am so happy with this product and the service. I see me being a long time converted user of this brand.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jeanne G. from Clean Mist Ultrasonic Humidifier I like the Ultrasonic Humidifier very much. It requires little maintenance and is much better than any other I have purchased. The removable top spout is annoying as it falls out and down the drain when I forget to take it out. I have had several of these humidifiers and will continue to use them and recommend them.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Susie from Very nice unit Nice I've use it all winter and I haven't stopped. Put it in the corner of my living room . I fill it every other day. Its quiet and perfect for my small living space. Love the fact that it has a light to let you know when it almost time to refill and the fact that it shuts off by it self.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ruth D. from James D. Using two MH-408s, one in each bedroom at night. Move them to living-dining room for daytime. Very satisfied with design and performance. Have used distilled water, but planning to order the demineralizing filters for them. These are completely silent, another good feature.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Margie from great Humidifier Really came in handy I have found this to be a big help this winter. It has kept me breathing easier and coughing less. I only use distilled water in it and so the cleaning is easy.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Laura Stevens from Worth every Penny I needed a new humidifier, but didn't want to pay a fortune. This model in perfect new, and with a 1 year warranty. Works like a dream.


Contractors come in many forms, from independent one person companies, such as electricians, plumbers or joiners, through small building firms, property developers and architects, up to main contractors responsible for significant construction projects.
All will need a range of insurance protection to enable them to fulfil their duties, most of which are detailed under the various classes of insurance shown under the Business Insurance section of this website. However, there are other more bespoke covers that persons involved in the construction industry may require.
Contractors All Risks cover, Short Period Contract Works policies and Non-Negligent Liability insurance are just a few of the specific insurance products that a contractor, or indeed their client, may wish to consider. We can also provide advice on Latent Defects and Building Warranties.
Insurance may be required to offer protection against the loss, or damage, to works being undertaken from commencement to completion, including the materials brought on site during the process to be incorporated in the works. In addition tools, plant and temporary buildings may also be required to perform the contract, all requiring insurance cover. A Contractors All Risk or Short Period Contract Works policy will afford protection in these instances.
Whilst you may already have Public Liability insurance in place, this will only provide you with protection where you are responsible for property damage where you have been negligent. What about if damage is caused to a neighbouring property, from your actions, despite the fact you have adhered to all guidelines? Non-Negligent Liability will afford protection against the loss or damage to adjacent or properties located nearby where you have not been negligent but none the less your actions have caused damage.
We would be happy to discuss your requirements with you to ensure you are suitably protected.


Millington Diamond engine to ford gearbox without starter motor boss.
Brand new bellhousing, whcih allows a Millington Diamond engine to be connected to a Ford RWD pattern gearbox. The wall section has been increased and fillets added to the top and bottom engine flanges. The lack of starter motor mounting boss gives more room in the transmission tunnel .Engine end threads are 10mm Hellicoiled.
The slave cylinder mounting boss is machined to allow the the AP Racing CP6859-54 cylinder (not included) to mount straight onto it. Additionally the boss is made thick enough so that the rear face can be machined down to suit the installed clutch height.
Choose the gearbox mounting from either quick release with 10mm hellicoiled holes or clearance for 12mm cap head bolts.
The quick release option allows quicker gearbox removal and fitting by moving the 4 internal gearbox to bellhousing bolts to the outside of the gearbox. This allows the gearbox to be removed whilst leaving the bellhousing in place, making a difficult job much easier. The gearbox is attached to the bellhousing using the original bolts or 10mm cap head screws fitted from the rear of the bellhousing face of the gearbox *.


Nothing exemplifies winter more than peppermint, or at least that's what I believe. Every year I count down to the day when candy canes line the store shelves and Starbucks brings out its luscious and chocolaty peppermint mocha. My constant craving for the cool and fresh tingly sensation of a peppermint candy recently became too much and I just had to bake something up right away! My answer was the ultimate three-tiered peppermint brownie, with layers of creamy milk chocolate and peppermint all over. You can certainly replace the dairy items with non-dairy substitutes, but once in a while the real thing is completely worth it!
Below are the recipes I used to create my Triple-Peppermint Brownies, which were inspired by these Chocolate Chip Cookie & Oreo Brownie Bars.
In a large bowl, beat butter, sugar, eggs, extract until light and fluffy. Separately, combine flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Stir flour mixture in to the butter mixture until well blended. Mix in the chocolate chips and spread on the bottom of a large baking pan lined with wax paper.
Middle: Place a layer of Peppermint Joe Joe's on top of the chocolate cookie dough.
Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a bowl and set aside. Combine the butter and chocolate chips in a bowl and melt in the microwave, 30 seconds at a time and stirring frequently, until melted in shiny. It should take around 90 seconds. Cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally.
Combine the chocolate mixture, sugar and eggs then blend in vanilla. Add the flour to the chocolate mixture and mix until just incorporated. Stir in the chopped York Peppermint Patties.
Pour the thick batter over the Joe Joe's and smooth out the top.
Bake at 350 degrees for 45-60 minutes, until center is cooked through and a toothpick comes out mostly clean. Cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing since the brownies are very gooey and need some time to set.
Optional: Sprinkle with crushed peppermint candies a few minutes before the peppermint brownies are finished for an additional delicious layer of mint! Since the candy will be very sticky, wait until the peppermint brownies cool completely before cutting in to them for an easier time slicing. You can also flip the peppermint brownies and cut them upside down to cut through the crunchy candy topping.

Sunset Overdrive's crazy style is a gleeful blend of Tony Hawk Pro Skater and combat (review)
Jeff Grubb@jeffgrubb
You have a lot of big guns in Sunset Overdrive.

Check out our Reviews Vault for past game reviews.
The Xbox One and PlayStation 4 are still less than a year old, and Insomniac Games recognized this as one of the best opportunities to introduce a new franchise.
Sunset Overdrive is an open-world action shooter that has players doing battle with a soda corporation and the army of energy-drink mutants that it created. Due out as an Xbox One exclusive on Oct. 30, Insomniac's first game for the new consoles distinguishes itself from other shooters by forcing players to stay off the ground. The floor is lava (literally, at one point). Running around on terra firma is almost always the fastest way to die. Instead, your best chance for survival is to guide your character around the obstacle course-like world by grinding power lines (like you're on a skateboard), running on walls, gliding through the air, and bouncing on cars. The experience is as chaotic and kinetic as it sounds.
The shorthand I can come up with is this: It's combat Tony Hawk Pro Skater.
Above: You'll need to grind above the chaos if you want to survive most encounters.
It's crazy, and it's fun enough to support a pretty entertaining campaign that only has a few minor issues.
What you'll like
The traversal mechanics are a blast
Getting around the world of Sunset City really is the big draw here. Running is slow, so even when the area is clear of mutants, you'll want to use your grinds and wallruns to go from point A to point B.
The good news is that jumping from flag poles to roof tops to cars doesn't feel automatic. Like Tony Hawk, Sunset Overdrive demands that you use skill to get around, so you always feel in control.
This extends into combat where you'll absolutely need to use creative locomotion to survive encounters with enemies. To encourage you to stay on the power lines and away from the killzone that is the Sunset city streets, you build up the combo meter over time as long as you keep your movement or combat chain going.
Bigger combos takes your character to a higher overdrive level, which unlocks special abilities called amps. The higher-level amps include benefits like lightning raining down and killing random enemies around you, which is way cooler than it even sounds. You can mix and match amps on your character and weapons. You can also unlock badges that make you even more powerful.
It's colorful, stylistic, and funny
Insomniac decided to pair Sunset Overdrive's frantic action with a cartoony, hip visual style that is certainly unique when it comes to triple-A games. It's flashy and colorful, with a "punk rock" aesthetic. But this doesn't begin and end with the color palette and soundtrack.
When you kill enemies, they explode into a satisfying bubble of orange soda. When you destroy a building, the mushroom cloud blooms into the air into the shape of an onomatopoeia like "BOOM!"
All this makes playing Sunset Overdrive feel like the exact opposite of the drab shooters we've come to expect from tentpole releases for consoles.
The style also had me absolutely in love with my character. One of the first things you do when you boot up Sunset Overdrive is create your avatar. What does my character look like? I'm glad you asked.
Above: Explosions sure are pretty in this one.
She is a kickass black lady with an Einstein white mop of hair and a mustache. She is also the coolest character in all of video games. I hope she is in the next Smash Bros.
Above: This is my hero, and she's the coolest!

You can change everything about the way your hero looks, but I got attached to mine. I gave her some new skinny jeans and a vest once or twice, but I'll always associate Sunset Overdrive with the character I made.
Finally, Insomniac's punk-rock attitude and irreverent tone extends to the humor as well.
Sunset Overdrive constantly breaks the fourth wall. The tutorial mission is just a booming disembodied voice making fun of tutorial missions. It's clever and nonstop. I got to a point in the story where I thought, "Oh, great — here's one of those quests," and almost immediately after that my character started cracking wise about the mission design. That moment repeated itself over and over throughout my time with Sunset Overdrive.
The humor, the look, and the sound are all of the sugar that really helps the medicine go down.
What you won't like
Open-world quests are kind of a drag
Even with my hip hero keeping me chuckling throughout the story, I did feel burnt out by Sunset Overdrive's structure.
You get simple quests from groups of people who otherwise aren't doing anything. During the course of completing those quests, you realize that you actually need to go and complete an entirely different set of missions that take a lot longer than expected.
Yes, Sunset Overdrive is making fun of this while it does it, but for everything that it's doing that is new, this is one of those things that just feels creaky, gray-haired old.
The mission structure isn't worse than other open-world games. And the missions do an OK job of introducing you to new ways of using your powers. But I was disappointed. That's likely due to a combination of the fresh feel and its appearance on a new console.
Mandatory tower-defense mode is not my jam
Most of Sunset Overdrive has you running around its beautiful map. Occasionally, however, you stop and cook up some new power amps with your buddy, Floyd. During these sections, it turns into a third-person tower-defense game. It's a horde mode that'll has waves of enemies trying to crash your base while you wait for Floyd to finish making your new stuff.
Above: Las Catrinas are pretty badass.
This is no fun in the single-player mode. Multiplayer has something similar, and that works — but it's just too hectic when you're alone.
The big problem is that it's not like you've spent hours memorizing the nuances of this one small part of the world. I didn't even know which way the mutants were coming from a lot of the time. I spent way too long trying to make sense of the minimap, which meant that the enemy invaders easily broke through my defenses and wrecked everything. Maybe players with better skills than I showed will have an easier time with this, but it didn't work for me — and I suspect it won't for many of you.
Sunset Overdrive is a really good time. If you also regularly run with an online crew that enjoys a good "us versus waves of baddies" modes, you will likely get even more mileage out of it.
The look, feel, and sound won me over. Forgiving the mission structure and forgetting the tower-defense junk, this is pretty much what I would expect from an action shooter for this console generation.
And it doesn't hurt that "combat Tony Hawk" is a brilliant idea that someone should've thought up long ago.
Microsoft provided GamesBeat with a digital download code for Sunset Overdrive for the purposes of this review. It debuts exclusively on Xbox One on Oct. 30.
You're going to have to make a lot of things go boom.
This is one of the stages where you play the tower-defense mode.
Big bosses also get the most stylish kill animations.
Everyone's character will look different.
This is not Ted Price — although this character exhibits similar leadership skills.
You'll have to win over the hearts and minds of the various bands of survivors in Sunset City.
Bouncing around is one of the best ways to avoid getting shot in the face.
This is what energy-drink mutants look like in real life, too!

To see this observe that executing two nonconflicting operations in either order has the same computational effect.
To see the relationship between the two notations, consider the following transaction. ~Note that we generally do not draw arcs implied by transitivity. For example, the arc TJX] --t c, is implied by TJX] + w,[z] and w,[z] + cZ. Our formal definition of a transaction does not capture every observable aspect of the transaction execution it models. For example, it does not describe the initial values of data items or the values written by Writes. Moreover, it only describes the database operations, and not, for example, assignment or conditional statements.

DescriptionCollaboration has become a common way for nonprofit organizations to address important social and economic issues facing communities. The form of governance of a collaborative network, which involves coordinating and guiding its participants' actions, represents a critical feature that shapes the ability of the network to achieve its goals. However, little is known about the factors that influence the adoption of a particular form of network governance (e.g., a centralized form over a non-centralized form, the specific forms of centralized governance), and little is understood about how the form of governance influences network outcomes.
In response, this study examined these questions using a mixed-methods approach involving in-depth semi-structured interviews together with a large-n survey of collaborative networks in the Foundation Center's Nonprofit Collaboration Database. A total of 20 semi-structured interviews with network representatives provided a nuanced understanding of network governance and outcomes and helped refine the research questions and hypotheses. An original survey of 177 representatives of nonprofit networks allowed for the statistical analysis of the patterns of collaboration governance and outcomes as well as the testing of hypotheses derived from the literature review and interviews.
The survey results demonstrate the pervasiveness of a centralized form of governance, with almost equal adoption of either a lead organization or an administrative organization, across the collaborative networks studied. The research revealed contextual factors and network characteristics with significant influences on the adoption of a centralized form over a non-centralized form of governance, an administrative organization form over a lead organization form of centralized governance, and the involvement of member organizations in governance. The results show that networks with centralized governance are more successful in achieving goals compared to networks with non-centralized governance. The study also found that networks governed by a central organization with greater member involvement in governance achieve higher levels of social capital, collaborative learning, and progress toward goals in comparison to those with less member involvement.
This dissertation contributes new evidence about collaborative governance in the nonprofit sector, the adoption of centralized and non-centralized forms of network governance, and the achievement of collaboration outcomes.

I don't think Moms should ever get sick because all I want to do is stay in bed, watch the crap out of Netflix and if I happen to fall asleep, no big deal. But I have two babies and a Hubby with the craziest work schedule and we are all super Moms. But today I did get a little nap that felt like a dream and now I totally want to redo our bedroom. Right now it is so plain and we need to add some character to make it a place I want to be at night to relax and look at five million pictures of my babies or thinking about everything I didn't get done instead of sleeping. We don't even put a television in our room because that can be too distracting and being two thousand sixteen there is way too much of that.
So here are a few of the things I am swooning over to make our room a little more stylish! I still cannot decide on a bed that Eric will love too and not being too girly. But I am in love with everything else ... I mean that rug is my new favorite thing ever. It comes in a big enough size that I can put it under the bed about half way and add the sheepskin rug right where my feet hit when I wake up in the morning! Which our sunrises have been stunning just like the sunsets. California living really is a dream! I love big pieces of artwork compared to a bunch of stuff on the walls and loving the simple yet beach like one I picked from Z Gallerie. Love that place! I bought a succulent plant and luckily it is still alive and think we need to add more greenery around the house (even if they are fake). We need a big dresser because I usually fold all of my stuff which really means my sweats and comfy t-shirts. I want to try and stay away from all dark furniture like we have right now to make the room feel brighter but that dresser is the one! Put a vase with some tropical leaves and maybe a catch all dish for keys and change oh and a picture of my three favorites for sure.
The nightstand is simple and perfect for my style. Usually my night stand is full of random nothings like an empty Dr. Pepper can, a few of Aden's toys and a sock of Adie's! But I like how this one I can add a few books I should read and the simple look of the vase and I love you so print is just ideal! I love that floor lamp you can also see how I styled it here for our comfy room we are working on right now! So does anybody's Hubby sit on the bed when you are still asleep and jump up and down on it while putting their socks on?! Or is it just me?! At least that's what it feels like so a chair in our room is a freaking must! I love how simple and comfy this one looks and you can add any color pillow to make it work for you! I love the yellow color especially since Spring is almost here!!!! A little side table to keep a book or plant is perfect and I love concrete anything! We don't have any mirrors hanging in the house besides in the bathroom but this one really caught my eye and think it would be perfect in our bedroom for those last minute make sure my hair looks ok looks!
I want those shaggy poufs everywhere in our house! They are so cute and completely comfy and I just know Adie and Aden will love them! Which will be perfect so they can jump, sit and whatever on those instead of our bed our the sofa! :) Today was full of rain, playing shopping (Adie's new favorite) we go to Target and Peek Kids and cute laughter with Aden. He is so happy when he wakes up from his nap and I think it is time to lower his crib! Insert tears now! But the weather is supposed to be in the 80's and I cannot complain ... I love February when it's warm! I hated being so cooped up inside (Utah) because it was snowing or too dang cold to do anything outside with two little people! Literally makes you crazy! But hopefully we get to the beach for some fun adventures, tan lines and put our toes in the sand! Sure feel lucky that Eric's job didn't take us to Montana (it almost happened) and that we get to be beach bums for now! Cheers!
Adie today told me she was rich so let's start shopping, right?! :) and she wanted to wear my a necklace and totally think she needs one for her birthday, it looks so darling on her! So excited for her birthday and Aden's too! XO!

What new census data tells us about Sioux Falls
The four-county metro area surpassed 275,000 population.
18 Aug 2021 • 2 min read
Simplified: The 2020 census data confirms what many folks in town already knew: Sioux Falls is growing. The four-county metro area surpassed 275,000 population.
Here's a breakdown of some of the specifics to put that growth into context.
The census data shows not only is Sioux Falls growing, but it's also growing at a faster rate than the rest of the state and at a slightly faster rate than decades prior.
Of the more than 72,000 people added to South Dakota's population in the last decade, 67 percent came to the four-county metro area of Sioux Falls, including Lincoln, Minnehaha, McCook and Turner.
Sioux Falls' growth in numbers also coincides with a growth in diversity. People of color make up 21 percent of the population in Minnehaha County, and just over 10 percent of the population in Lincoln County.
City and business officials say the growth, while not a surprise, shows continued momentum in the Sioux Falls region.
"I can't see another community that has the positive momentum that Sioux Falls has in so many areas," Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Jeff Griffin said.
What does the census data say about Sioux Falls?
With any data set, it depends on who you ask and how you look at the numbers, but there's no denying the growth trend.
Sioux Falls' population grew by about 25 percent, which is slightly higher than the 23 and 24 percent growth rates since at least 1990.
"It's amazing in Sioux Falls that we continue that same growth rate," said Jeff Schmitt, planning projects coordinator with the city.
The data also shows Sioux Falls' demographics are changing.
Here's a breakdown looking at Minnehaha County:
Hispanic or Latino people make up the second-largest racial or ethnic group recorded with more than 12,000 people.
Black people accounted for more than 11,000 people, the third-largest group recorded.
County-level data differs from the state in that statewide the second-largest racial or ethnic group recorded was American Indian.
What does the data say about the metro area as a whole?
Growth is happening across the metro area from Salem to Canton, said Jesse Fonkert, president and CEO of the Sioux Metro Growth Alliance.*
"More and more people are looking to move to this area thanks to the great opportunities available to them," he said.
At the city level, the next step is to dig deeper into the data, especially when it comes to housing, Schmitt said. He plans to look at the census' accounting of vacancy rates and how it relates to poverty rates.
"We need to really understand that," he said.
*The Sioux Metro Growth Alliance is a Sioux Falls Simplified sponsor, but Fonkert was contributing to this piece not as an advertiser but as an economic development official.
What to know about Sioux Falls' medical marijuana rules
Most councilors said they voted in favor of legalizing medical marijuana on the statewide ballot in 2020, but opinions on whether measures were appropriate or too restrictive varied.
