My All-Star picks

For what it's worth... I feel guilty I didn't pick more Yankees, but Derek Jeter's still recovering from his shoulder injury, and most of the others aren't hitting as well as last year. What I want to know is, What is the point of letting folks vote up to 25 times for their All-Star picks?

By weird coincidence, there was a freak mechanical accident last night at Coors Field, the newest stadium page on this Web site. As reported in the Rocky Mountain News, at least 32 people were injured when a three-story escalator started accelerating out of control, hurling people on top of each other.

This (or that) year's
blog highlights

Blog highlights have been compiled for the years 2010-2012 thus far, and eventually will be compiled for earlier years, back to 2002.


Explanation

The "home made" blog organization system that I created was instituted on November 1, 2004, followed by several functional enhancements in subsequent years. I make no more than one blog post per day on any one category, so some posts may cover multiple news items or issues. Blog posts appear in the following (reverse alphabetical) order, which may differ from the chronological order in which the posts were originally made:

  1. Wild birds (LAST)
  2. War
  3. Science & Technology
  4. Politics
  5. Latin America
  6. Culture & Travel
  7. Canaries ("Home birds")
  8. Baseball (FIRST)
