| Carl Edwards NASCAR Nationwide Series Victory Interview | | 2008-07-21 15:47:35 | | The following is a Q&A with CARL EDWARDS winner of this week’s NASCAR Nationwide Series Dodge Dealers 250 at Gateway International Raceway near St. Louis. Missouri native Carl Edwards cruised to victory nearly seven seconds ahead of Joey Logano in the Dodge Dealers 250 at Gateway International Raceway near St. Louis. It was the second win of the year for Edwards and the 15th of his Nationwide Series career. Carl Edwards: For me, there have only been a couple of times I’ve had a car that dominant at the end of a race. I asked Drew, I said ‘were we that much faster or did other people slow down?’ because I was just cruising around, you know, at the end and the car was so good. I’m just really, really proud of Drew and the guys for being able to make the adjustments that made it drive like that. I couldn’t believe how fast it was. Edwards struggled to contain his excitement in the closing stages of the race on his home track. Edwards: I just did my job and didn’t – just | | By: Unrestricted: My NASCAR Rants & Raves | | |

The bombers now trail the 1st place Sox by 4.5 games.ON THE MOUND:Andy Pettitte (9-5) held the Mets down to two runs, both coming on solo shots off the bats of Romon Castro and David Wright in six innings of work, winning his fourth start in a row since allowing 10 runs in a June 7 no-decision against Kansas City. The left-hander improved to 6-0 with a 3.54 ERA in eight outings since a May 17 loss to Santana at Yankee Stadium.The sixth inning might have changed the game completely.After the delay, Jose Reyes' base running mistake cost Wright an RBI chance in the fifth.

| Shock victory for LibDems in Henley? | | 2008-06-26 16:39:06 | | Could the Liberal Democrats pull off another by-election shocker? I don't know but many journalists from the Daily Telegraph to the Guardian think this might be so. The votes are now being ferried to the count as I type this out. One thing I do know is that the Conservatives have a couple of things going against them. First, the people of Henley have lost a popular well-known MP who has decided to plough a different furrow. This does have some reflection on Henley and the surrounding villages, as being of lesser interest politically to the effervescent Boris. Then there is the rumbling of minor sleeze, odd bouts of disunity, unclarity over policy, which have added to the gossip that the Conservative candidate may not do so well. I hope he does well, but echoes of Bromley are sounding in my ears. Ugh!! | | By: A View from Middle England by Arden Forester | | |

| A Major Victory for Texas, by US Rep. Ron Paul | | 2008-06-23 00:00:00 | | I am pleased to report that last week we received notice that the Texas Department of Transportation will recommend the I-69 Project be developed using existing highway facilities instead of the proposed massive new Trans Texas Corridor/NAFTA Superhighway. According to the Texas Transportation Commissioner, consideration is no longer being given to new corridors and other proposals for a new highway footprint for this project. A major looming threat to property rights and national sovereignty is removed with this encouraging announcement.
Public outcry was cited as the main reason for this decision. I was very impressed to learn that the TxDOT received nearly 28,000 public comments on this matter, and that some 12,000 Texans attended the 47 public hearings held earlier this year. They could not ignore this tsunami of strong public opinion against the proposed plans.

| Another JD Drew-Powered Victory...Red Sox 7 Phillies 4 | | 2008-06-19 04:26:00 | | JD Drew's June numbers (so far) are AL Player of the Month caliber. He's batting .441 with nine home runs and 21 RBI in 17 games. That's nothing short of awesome. And his club, OUR club, took the three game series with the Phillies with a getaway day 7-4 win. Justin Masterson went the first five frames but was not as effective, control-wise, than in his earlier starts. Just 53 of his 92 pitches were strikes, but he held the potent Philadelphia lineup to 4 hits and 2 runs. Javie Lopez pitched a quick and clean sixth before the roof came close to crashing down. Why? Two words...Craig Hansen. He failed to record an out and gave up two runs and two hits. Add a walk to those woeful numbers and you can begin to imagine the mess that Manny Delcarmen inherited. After walking the first hitter he faced to load the bases (remember, the score was 7-4 at the time), he retired the next three, striking out Ryan Howard to end the inning and preserve that three run lead.

Wow!! Lester has not allowed more than three earned runs in 10 straight starts. He has made us literally forget about Johan Santana. Hideki Okajima pitched a clean eighth and Jonathon Papelbon struck out the side in a 14 pitch ninth to make it official. It was his 20th save. Lester had this to say after the game..."I tried to keep them off-balance as best I could," Lester said. "It's a good fastball-hitting team with all that pop. I just tried to mix the ball up and down, in and out and I was fortunate to do that. Our main objective early on was to establish something soft, something not in their bat path and we did that with some curveballs early to Howard. We got them off the fastball a little bit."

But the win doesn't come without some very, very bad news; Yankees' starter Chien-Ming Wang injured his right foot running the bases in the 6th inning and had to be helped off the field. He's expected to miss about 6 weeks.ON THE MOUND:C.M.Wang pitched great his second time out until that point allowing no runs on 6 hits in 5 innings pitched, while striking out 3 and walking none.Ross Ohlendorf, Edwar Ramirez, Latroy Hawkins and Dan Giese all pitched scoreless innings out of the bullpen striking out1 a piece. ...THE OFFENSE:The Yankees offense pounded out 13 runs on 16 hits today and really looked great on the road trip going 5-1. The first runs came in the 3rd inning on a bases loaded walk to Jorge Posada and a 2-run bloop single by Robinson Cano.They were still leading 3-0 heading into the 6th, but then exploded for 8 runs to blow the game open.

It's also a place, as the Boston Red Sox found out in a 9-0 defeat of those Reds, that's fairly easy to hit one out into the seats. Yesterday, without their two big sluggers, David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez, the visitors from Boston smashed four home runs. Jacoby Ellsbury, who set the Red Sox rookie record for steals in a season with 33, Justin Pedroia, the still white-hot JD Drew and Coco Crisp all went deep, and it led to a great offensive display for the world champions. It was the first time since '97 that the first three hitters in the Boston lineup hit taters. Who were they? Nomar, John Valentin and Connecticut's own (Too Big) Mo Vaughn. Outfielder Coco Crisp had this to say after the shutout ended..."We have a good hitting team," Crisp said. "Those guys make us better, no doubt.

| A Victory For Omaha | | 2008-05-13 01:10:50 | | As some of you may know, I live in Omaha, and I'd like to touch on a local issue in this post. The city just reached an agreement with the NCAA to keep the College World Series in Omaha for 25 more years. This contract is huge victory for the city, baseball fans, and Omaha Mayor Mike Fahey. The Series has spent 57 consecutive years in the city and the new arrangement will keep it here through 2035.Fahey has faced serious criticism (including a failed recall effort) over the past year while pushing for a new stadium to entice the NCAA into a long term deal. In the end, it seems his foresight has paid off for Omaha and he should be applauded for doing what was necessary to keep the Series. While I will be sad to see Rosenblatt Stadium--the home of the Series since it came to Omaha in 1950--go, the new stadium plan was certainly critical to the new deal. A number of other cities, with newer, fancier parks and attractions, were vying for NCAA attention--no other NCAA championship is | | By: Political Realm | | |

| Russia's Victory Day Parade back in Red Square | | 2008-05-11 18:12:00 | | "This is the Soviet standard, ideology, philosophy and above all, Soviet aesthetics of fear..."It seems Vladimir Putin has a longing for the past. The past President's old KGB Soviet mentality is returning to the fore of his public psyche and this may just explain his decision earlier this year, to display Russia’s heavy weapons in May for a Soviet-style Victory Day parade in Red Square.Soviet parades of this type were an important feature of cold war mentality and once again in 2008 tanks and missiles will rolled out for the world to see. The authorities had promised to include the very latest weaponry including T-90 tanks and Topol-M long-range ballistic missiles.Putin insisted that the parade was not meant as a saber rattling exercise:"The outgoing Russian leader said that Friday's parade to mark the end of World War II would demonstrate Russia's growing defense capabilities.

| 'The Worst Is Behind Us': Paulson Joins Street Luminaries, Declares Victory | | 2008-05-07 12:03:00 | | With Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson and Merrill's John Thain chiming in, there's now near unanimity of opinion on Wall Street: The worst of the credit crisis is over.Such comments seem outrageous given the latest batch of scary headlines from UBS, Fannie Mae, Legg Mason, Lazard, et al. But hope springs eternal on Wall Street, and the reality is the crisis in the debt markets has eased since JPMorgan's Fed-engineered purchase of Bear Stearns, which Paulson called "an inflection point." (Critics have used similar terms, but with a far different meaning.) Meanwhile, even Henry "Mr. Sunshine" Blodget is starting to come around to the idea that the housing market may be hitting bottom, thanks to an op-ed by Cyril Moulle-Berteaux, managing partner of Traxis Partners, in The Wall Street Journal.In making the case for a housing-market bottom, Moulle-Berteaux notes house price affordability has improved dramatically and the inventory of new homes is falling.

| Shelby celebrates 85th birthday and 1966 Le Mans victory with Commemorative GT40 | | 2008-05-01 23:59:00 | | We got our first look at Shelby's 85th Commemorative GT40 back in January at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale. It's as close as you can get to the real thing without spending millions on an original GT40 with the chassis and body nearly perfectly replicating the original. Shelby Distribution has now issued an updated press release as well as the official photos. The GT40, built by Superformance but officially badged a Shelby, celebrates both Carroll's 85th birthday as well as the dominating 1-2-3 Le Mans win in 1966. It's available in all three colors of the original race cars - Arcadian Blue, Black, and Red - as well as unique Shelby badging on the door handles, headlights, side graphics, and floor mats. No engine specs are available since each comes as a rolling chassis, but the engine bay is built to accommodate any Shelby-badged V8 crate engine. Anything but a 427ci V8 would be just plain crazy, though. | | By: Autoshows | | |

| Clinton Needs Massive Victory Tuesday, Narrow Victory is a Loss | | 2008-04-22 01:51:23 | | After 7 weeks of campaigning in Pennsylvania, and more than one year after the race for president began, Tuesday might bring us closer to knowing the Democratic nominee. Before the real hard fought campaigning began in Pennsylvania, Senator Clinton had a 20 point lead over Barack Obama. On Monday a list of new polls was released giving Clinton a range of only 3 to 8 points in her lead over Obama. Obama has been able to cut into Clinton’s lead by focusing on the blue-collar voters of Pennsylvania and working hard to relate to the working class in that state. Obama’s campaign in Pennsylvania reached out to this voting demographic in ways that he did not do in other states. Senator Clinton has also been hurt by the Bosnia sniper story which has further damaged her image as an honest and trustworthy leader. Obama has also faced his own problems while campaigning for the crucial state. While giving a speech in San Francisco, comments he made about small town Penns | | By: The Mersman Political Blog | | |

| MANNY Powers Red Sox Comeback Victory | | 2008-04-15 04:35:00 | | Manny Ramirez has been putting up All Star numbers for the Boston Red Sox so far this season, and his two run monster bomb shot completed a Red Sox comeback and powered the New England team to a 6-4 victory over the at home Cleveland Indians. It was 4-1 Cleveland after 5 innings as Sox starter Jon Lester was not sharp, not sharp at all, at least after the first three spotless innings. He ended up going only 4 1/3 frames, throwing a whopping 97 pitches in that short span. Why so many? Walks, number one. He allowed 4 free passes while giving up 4 earned runs and 5 hits. Do the math and you get a typically mediocre Lester performance. NOT ACCEPTABLE! But the bullpen shined. Yes, OUR BULLPEN. Julian Tavarez, who has been mostly great this year, was the prime savior, holding the fort for 2 2/3 innings. Winner Mike Timlin has seemed to find the cure to what ailed him. He went 1 clean inning, the 8th, and Paps scalped the Indians in the 9th, striking out 2. Youkilis chimed in with 3 hits, but | | By: Peter's Red Sox Forever | | |

| Times man prepares for shock BNP victory! | | 2008-04-01 17:14:25 | | Tim Hames writing in The Times today is contemplating the thought of the BNP gaining seats on the London Assembly. His reasons for this possibility are valid, that the BNP is better organised despite fratricidal outbursts, and that there are no Euro Elections to encourage support for UKIP. I'd be a bit bolder, though.The nine months or so that Gordon Brown has been at the helm have seen issue after issue that the BNP can exploit. Because Brown and his gang have signally failed to deliver, and the two main opposition parties continue to speak mainly in soundbites, the BNP is able to benefit, albeit in certain areas.They know how to raise fears over immigration, they can mention dodgy bankers, no jobs for whites, housing hard to get, people losing their homes, etc. All posed in simple but stark terms. Yes we have dodgy bankers, but they don't control immigration. Yes, we have mortgage foreclosures (not repossessions, please!), but this is not the fault of bad employers.

This helped the convincing victory of the format above HD DVD (let us recall about the irrevocable support of Blu-ray declared recently the Warner Bros company, joined by four other large motion picture companies).Moreover unambiguously statements from the market research firm, Gartner is that by the end of 2008, the HD market atmosphere will be characterized by the complete victory of the Blu-ray format. Perhaps it could be so, at least in respect to the US HD market because most of the major film companies have chosen Blu-ray format for their products. | | By: movie special | | |

| Blu-ray players more expensive after format war victory - SendMeRSS | | 2008-03-14 00:58:15 | | Blu-ray players more expensive after format war victoryFiled under: Blu-ray With Blu-ray declared the winner of the HD format wars, players have been going up in price. Without competition from HD DVD, Blu-ray players from Samsung, Sony, Sharp and Panasonic have actually gone up: to their highest 2008 prices yet, according to TG Daily. It appears that the PS3 is still the best value for those looking for a Blu-ray player. Not only is it one of the cheapest (at $400), it also can play upcoming BD Profile movies, which utilize an internet connection. Current standalone players are unable to use this feature and will be incompatible with many features in upcoming Blu-ray releases.TG Daily has some keen words of advice: "Ironically, although Blu-ray has been declared the winner, it is right now about the worst time to invest in a standalone Blu-ray player, because of the high prices and looming obsolescence.

| Microsoft predicts 'hollow victory' for PS3 in Feb/Mar - SendMeRSS | | 2008-03-14 00:58:09 | | Microsoft predicts 'hollow victory' for PS3 in Feb/MarFiled under: BusinessEvery company has to put some spin on the monthly NPD numbers. But this month, Microsoft's Aaron Greenberg is taking a preemptive strike. NPD numbers will come out later this today, and already Microsoft is trash-talking the PS3. "Our expectation is that because of our shortages at retail during February, we will sell less than PS3," he told Next Gen. "That's not a surprise to us. I don't know what Sony's reaction will be to that, but it will definitely be a bit of a hollow victory. The competition sure didn't show up [in February]."However, it looks like MS is also conceding March figures as well, saying that their so-called supply issues will be rectified in April. "By April, we will be in a very healthy inventory situation," he told Reuters.
