    Players who didn’t care about legacy

    So you hear about Brett Favre?  Thought you may have.  We have not really discussed it here and won’t get too far into it.  Something that keeps getting to me is people talking about what playing for another team would do to his “legacy” when he finally does retire.  Myself, I don’t see this as [...]

    Japanese CarTop magazine released some renderings which show the possible facelifted Subaru Legacy.These renderings show how the new Legacy will look like.

    Own The Legacy
    2008-05-29 17:54:00
    Just got an e-mail from former Yankee publicist, Marty Appel, asking me to pass along some information on a HUGE Yankee baseball card set that has been created to commemorate the final season of Yankee Stadium. This is truly an amazing collection of not only Yankee history, but history in general....Here is the e-mail:Mark-I wanted to make your readers aware of an Upper Deck card product called Yankee Stadium Legacy – a 6,661 card set, with one card representing every Yankee home game ever played in Yankee Stadium (plus a few extras for Papal visits, boxing, etc.). It is the largest card set ever produced (Guinness Book worthy), and an amazing research project. The cards are inserted into various Upper Deck baseball products, and will continue into next year so that the 2008 MLB season is included.Is it impossible to collect the full set? It’s certainly a challenge.Fans and collectors can also register the codes on the back of the cards at the website to be included

    Desperately seeking a legacy?
    2008-04-23 01:48:14
    Bush administration offers new fuel economy rules - CNN.com The plan is expected to save nearly 55 billion gallons of oil and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 521 million metric tons over the life of the new vehicles built between 2011-15. It will add an average cost of $650 per passenger car and $979 per truck by 2015.Environmental groups and their allies in Congress, who have criticized the Bush administration's handling of the requirements, said they were mostly encouraged by the proposal."After years of fighting a fuel economy increase, the Bush administration is showing faith in the American auto industry's ability to reform," said Rep. Edward Markey, D-Massachusetts, who sought the higher standards.So the bush administration has fought tooth and nail for it's entire time in office against any kind of policy that would favor the environment.

    Amnesties kill - the legacy of impunity in Zimbabwe
    2008-04-08 09:10:00
    From “Breaking the Silence, Building True Peace - A report on the disturbances in Matabeleland and the Midlands”Before the first election in Zimbabwe there was also a general amnesty granted under the peace agreement drawn up by Lord Soames, the British High Commissioner at this time. This amnesty meant that all those who had committed human rights violations could not face prosecution, whether they were Rhodesians or ex-freedom fighters. This meant people who had done terrible things during the 1970s were not punished.Some of these Rhodesians who had tortured remained on in the Zimbabwean CIO and other units. A few used their position to act as South African agents to destabilise Zimbabwe. Others were recruited from ZANLA into 5 Brigade.In 1988, after the Unity Accord had brought an end to violence, a second amnesty was announced in Zimbabwe. This time those who were being saved from prosecution for crimes committed against civilians were 5 Brigade, CIO, other army units and dissi

    American Branch of the Muslim Brotherhood Tarnishes Dr. King's Legacy

    An act of violence, of terrorism, shook America 40 years ago today. The assassination of the Rev. Martin Luther King still reverberates as America struggles with racial politics and with terrorists - those who choose violence to achieve their political aims over King's courageous devotion to non violence. As we pause to remember King's sacrifice, we see that the Muslim American Society (MAS) has the gall to compare a committed jihadist with Dr. King.

    Fathi El-Jahmi and Bush's Legacy
    2008-02-14 11:22:00
    President Bush and Condoleezza Rice appear to be flailing for their legacy. They might turn no farther than imprisoned Libyan dissident Fathi El-Jahmi.On March 12, 2004, Bush declared: Earlier today, the Libyan government released Fathi Jahmi. [He's] a local government official who was imprisoned in 2002 for advocating free speech and democracy. It's an encouraging step toward reform in Libya.But Bush remained silent when Qadhafi re-arrested Jahmi two weeks later.According to a press release from Amnesty International: Prisoner of conscience Fathi el-Jahmi is being denied adequate medical treatment for his diabetes, high blood pressure and coronary artery disease. His health is deteriorating, and without proper treatment his life may be in grave danger. Bush will be remembered throughout the Arab world for his abandonment of freedom-seekers rather than his enabling of them. More...

    Their Perfect Legacy
    2008-02-04 20:15:34
    During the Giants final drive I looked at my dad and said, “If the Patriots keep blowing opportunities, they’re going to lose this game.” They let an interception slip through their hands and let Eli slip out of a critical sack. They lost the game because of these and other missed opportunities, as well as a relentless Giants pass rush.I don’t know how the Patriots will bounce back from last night’s Super Bowl loss. I doubt they, or any other team, will ever again go 16-0 in the regular season. This was their one chance to go down as an elite team in American sports history. It would’ve been the pinnacle of success – an undefeated season. Even if they win another Super Bowl they may always think, “What if.” They’ve already won three, and a fourth championship will still be just a fourth championship. It won’t be perfection. I think they’ll be sick about this loss forever.For the legacies of Tom Brady and Bill Belichick, it would’ve been better if they had neve

    Subaru Launches Diesel Outback/Legacy Wagon In The UK
    2008-01-24 12:41:26
    Almost a year after announcing their new diesel boxer engine at the 2007 Geneva Motor Show, Subaru has finally launch it in the UK. The Outback and the Legacy Sports Tourer (aka station wagon) will be on sale in February in the the UK with a 2.0L horizontally-opposed four-cylinder diesel engine. This apparently is the first diesel engine of this configuration ever installed in a production passenger car.The new plant is rated at 150hp and 258 lb-ft of torque with an impressive 4,7 L/ 100 km (41.3 mpg) . That's better than either the Mondeo or Passat diesel wagons and the Subaru has all wheel drive.The Legacy wagon gets from 0-100 km/h (0-60 mph) in a respectable 8.5 seconds, even with this impressive mileage. We can expect to see this engine appear under the hood of the Forester and Imprezza in mid-2010.

    Clemens: A Legacy Destroyed
    2007-12-15 12:00:00
    There was no bigger "casualty" in George Mitchell's steroid report that was released this past week to MLB than Roger Clemens. There had been whispers for years that he was on the juice, but now it has been put in a report for all the world to see. And it could just be the tip of the iceberg.Clemens was a sure-bet first-ballot Hall of Famer. His numbers are very well known: 354 wins, 7 Cy Young Awards, two World Series rings. He was arguably the pitcher of his generation.And now it appears that his chances for enshrinement to Cooperstown may have died with that report being released.His career now appears to be finished. I can't imagine any team taking a chance on him now. He's 45, and his body was breaking down late last September, and he threw just two postseason innings for the Yankees. They certainly don't want to be associated with him any more.Clemens issued a statement through his lawyer on Thursday that he never took steroids, and that he was "slandered." If Clemens was ind

    The Legacy Of Karl Rove
    2007-08-14 18:38:08
    Karl Rove announced his resignation yesterday, official at the end of the month, ending his official service with President Bush that dates to back to the 1970s. He told reporters that he first considered resigning last year and that his hand was forced now by Bush Chief of Staff Joshua Bolton, who recently told staffers to leave now or stay until the end of the term. "I just think it's time," Rove added.In some circles, he will be remembered as one of the greatest political strategists of the era. Rove is considered largely responsible for getting George W. Bush elected twice under difficult circumstances. In 2000, he helped position Bush as a "compassionate conservative" and used his perceived lack of intelligence to help him appeal to the common man. Despite the relative satisfaction with the status quo, Bush was able to defeat the status quo candidate--Al Gore. In 2004, he used the memory of the September 11th attacks to sell Bush as the commander in chief that would protect

    Bush's Legacy in Jeopardy...
    2007-07-17 10:17:00
    Senator Voinovich, R-OhioLittle George's legacy being in jeopardy is not news. We've known this for some time now, we haven't needed soothsayers to predict that for us. Personally I don't see how it can be salvaged with all that has gone on...been done...with more spin to come. Rove must be sweating bullets trying to come up with some sort of way out of this tangled web he has woven. He may find himself on a stage one day as the skull that Hamlet holds forth as poor Yoric. This may be their summer of discontent...in spades.It seems Voinovich has conversed with the Rovemeister and given a dire warning. Georgie needs to develop a workable plan to withdraw the troops from Iraq as a beginning salvage of is historical presidential legacy. It's the impossible dream by now. The Man from La Mancha cannot tilt at windmills anymore...so what makes people think there's any possibility that George could save a slice of good history for himself.

    Family Legacy
    2007-07-16 06:13:05
    Story continued from earlier posts...I started doing well at stocks when I took a step back and took a breather.I realized that I was too impulsive and didn't follow good rules. I went back to the drawing board and vowed that I wouldn't put money into trading until I had successfully paper traded. As I have mentioned before, paper trading is NOTHING like the real thing because you take emotion out of the equation and emotion is EVERYTHING in trading. But I had to start somewhere.My dream is to be able to earn enough to support my family, invest in large scale real estate and maybe one day start a hedge fund. You have got to have goals. I want to leave a financial legacy that will go from generation to generation. I am a Dad and I have responsibilities, one of them is to leave a legacy for my kids. Notice I didn't say inheritance... it's deeper than that.Armed with the internet, books, magazines and a deep sense that I can succeed I started learning again. It is sad to say that I h
