Agent Scott Boras appealed the ruling on Nolan Arenados second at-bat Monday night. Arenado hit a hard comebacker at Dodgers pitcher Ted Lilly. The pitcher didnt field it cleanly as Arenado reached first safely. It was ruled an error, and the call stood after the scorekeeper watched a video replay.Per the collective bargaining agreement, the organization or player representative can appeal the ruling.

The site is simple. Put two different e-readers head-to-head, and see which one comes out on top. I sat around and tried a lot of different combinations, and basically I agree with their conclusions. They use a variety of criteria including size of bookstore, overall reviews, features, price and battery life.
They give you a detailed report, showing their conclusions, advantages of each and other options to consider.

George Selgin, an economics professor at University of Georgia who recently published a paper on Bitcoin’s properties, believes that Bitcoin’s design does indeed leave room for competition. “In the long run, its rigid supply is hardly likely to make it a relatively stable—let alone ideal—money, so there’s room for new rivals that can ultimately outstrip it.”
Some Bitcoin devotees worry that alternative currencies could hinder efforts to make the leading cryptocurrency mainstream, but Selgin says that competition could simply increase the odds that any one cryptocurrency succeeds.
“It could, in the long run, give rise to one or several very robust currencies,” he says. “That’s how competition works generally, with winners and losers, but with quality generally improving as the struggle goes on.” The fact that established currencies such as the dollar will exist alongside as a (relatively) safe haven should cushion very severe shocks to individuals as competing currencies duke it out, says Selgin.

One more wish list item! I recorded this series on VHS tape back when it aired circa 1988. But those tapes are rather degraded by now. What a great show!

Amazon.com: Behringer XENYX X1204USB 12-Channel Mixer: Musical Instruments.
More wish list. I’ve got an older version of this mixer, without the USB interface. But mine is several years old and is down to 4 working mono channels. The two stereo channels have started cutting out and a long time ago a piece of a quarter inch jack got stuck in the headphone output. It just might be time for a new one!

I’m blogging a few items from my wish list. I have the original Mini-KP, but this unit looks like it will run circles around the old one.
