"Once he made the play and I thought we had four outs, I wondered how that worked for the next inning," Rockies manager Clint Hurdle said. "But I think we had it figured out. Those aren't things you work on or plan for, so when they happen, it kind of catches everybody for a second."
The manager of a pro baseball team thought you could get four outs with only three runners. That certainly makes him seem a bit incompetent to me.

xxx TLD
As lowlife said, I don't think the $60 hurdle will be the reason people would avoid registering domain names with the XXX extension. Take a look at some recent domain name sales.

God bless the magnetic ribbon industry
I have eight of these babies on my car, and I'm going to get more of them. I think I might try to cover my entire car.
Of course, I stole them off of other people's cars. Does that make me a bad person?

This is an artistic website. You web nazi's should not be visiting such sites, and if you happen to accidentally click on a link that takes you to such a site, please keep your copy of "rules that all webpages should follow" in your pocket.

If someone said that, I'm likely to punch the person in the face. I like the concept of this site though, and I'm going to give it a fair chance. Nice link!

Found Typography
Its a deeper observation of fonts and typography as found in our lives everyday and a more in depth look at an art we often fail to admire as we pass through the day.

The site also remembers where you last positioned the individual 'cards' when you visit again.
The load time associated with having to wait on each individual 'card' to load is a little annoying.

America's Most Literate Cities
clevershark, have you been to Oklahoma City? I lived my first 23 years within 30 minutes of OKC, and I can tell you that there isn't much to do there besides reading a newspaper.

Seems like a good learning experience for the kids. Maybe they will realize that their own religous is just as bogus as all the other ones. (does this constitute a trolling?)
Seriously though, I don't see any grounds for this lawsuit. There are plenty of classes that teach about religions, which is okay so long as they don't encourage or promote the religion.

I'm going to have to disagree on this one. Gator pop-ups aren't your typical pop-up advertisements. Theirs actually launch the install program and ask you if its okay to install Gator. I'm sure many web users think that its necessary to hit Yes so they can see the web page. Should a user be forced investigate for an extended period of time before deciding to hit No to such a pop up? I personally don't think so.

Personally, I think we need to develop a new rail system. Frankly, I'm tired of waiting 20 minutes in my car for two trains to cross paths. I'm not an employee of the companies that are shipping goods, and I don't think its fair of these companies to take chunks of my days (and other drivers around me) without my consent. Please someone agree with me.

What are the seasonal/preferred times for fires, if any?
Its my understanding (read online somewhere) that there was a fire ban, and even further that she was responsible for checking to ensure that other people weren't making campfires.
