Umps botch home run call at Yankee Stadium again
2008-05-22 16:08:00 For the second time in three games at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday, umpires missed a home run call that could have been made correctly with the use of instant replay. On Sunday, they negated a homer by the Mets' Carlos Delgado. This time, the Yankees' Alex Rodriguez was robbed the New York Times reported. Rodriguez, who had homered in the third inning of an eventual 8-0 victory, came up in the sixth against Baltimore's Lance Cormier. He drove a ball to right-center field, and it rose until caroming off a yellow staircase to the bleachers. The ball bounced back to the field and was ruled to be in play. Rodriguez, who had slid safely into second, protested. The umpires conferred but did not reverse the call. Asked if he had seen a replay, the crew chief Tim Welke said, "We just did and we made a mistake."Replays showed the ball striking the side of the staircase a few feet behind the fence and perhaps four feet above it. Welke explained that the umpires thought the ball had hit the ...

Apple Vows to Succeed Where Botched Online Movie Services Failed
2007-12-31 12:03:00 Movie fans know going to the movie store isn?t always convenient and late fees are a pain. So why haven't downloadable movie rentals caught on yet? Even the infamous Enron had plans to produce infrastructure for video-on-demand libraries as early as 2000.With the recent demise of Wal-mart's downloadable services, the time might be ripe for new blood. According to the Associated Press Apple will announce the new movie rental service next month that will work on top of its iTunes infrastructure.The new service is not to be confused with existing movie and TV downloads on iTunes. The new service would increase content several times over, with titles from several different studios.Apple has a much stronger user base for its iTunes service, which allowed Apple to attract its first major movie studio for the rental deal -- Twentieth Century Fox.

Cleaning Your [Botched] Nose:
2007-12-22 04:46:00 Botched noses, they can be worse than odd-shaped noses. While there are a lot of plastic surgeons who perform rhinoplasty, there are very few surgeons who approach a rhinoplasty procedure with an experienced outlook. The latter group is more often than not the surgeons who usually end up fixing badly done nose jobs.From the total number of rhinoplasty procedures performed in the United States, about 17 percent account for a revision rhinoplasty procedure. Most of these procedures require minor surgery, but a badly executed rhinoplasty can warrant extensive surgical repair.Scars and surgical marks too are some of the reasons patients go in for a revision rhinoplasty. And then again there are star-struck patients who come clutching their favorite idol’s photograph seeking the help of a plastic surgeon. Revision rhinoplasty is also considered by patients who are looking for a particular look for their new nose.At the Plastic Surgery Institute of California, Beverly Hills, professiona...

Book Review...Botchan by Natsume Soseki
2007-08-27 01:22:00 Botchan.Natsume Soseki.2006.Kodansha International.172pages.Botchan- was first published in Japanese way back in 1906.It was written by Natsume Soseki who is widely regarded as the best modern(i.e post 1868)Japanese prose writer.As well as novels he also wrote essays,literary criticism pieces and composed traditional haiku and poetry.Botchan is one of his earlier works and reflects his experiences as a secondary school teacher in Shikoku and Kyushu.The leading character of the book Botchan is used as a vehicle by the author to poke fun at various institutions and parts of Japanese society as well as individual human foibles and failings.One doesnt have to be Japanese to identify with the urban/rural distinctions he draws such as the perceived backwardness of small towns versus the modernity of cities like Tokyo.I enjoyed this easily readable light satire and can see why it has retained its popularity and become a standard school text book.The translation into English by J Cohn wasnt ...

More officers suspended after botched no-knock raid
2007-06-29 12:53:00 Three more officers were suspended this week as a result of the investigation into the killing of 92 year old Kathryn Johnson in Atlanta. In November, plainclothes policemen smashed in the door of Johnson's house after lying to obtain a search warrant, then killed her in a hail of bullets.More details here and here. From TheAgitator.com:Johnston's- murder should also be a wake-up call for those who instinctively believe initial police accounts of what happened during one of these raids. I suspect that if Kathryn Johnston had been a 22-year old innocent man instead of an 88 (or 92, depending on who's reporting)-year old innocent woman, we may still not know exactly what happened in that house.

A Primer on Avoiding the Botched Termination
2007-05-15 09:50:00 The American physician & writer, Austin O'Malley, once stated that "revenge is often like biting a dog because the dog bit you." Like a cantankerous dog, terminated employees will sometimes strike back too, especially if they've been shoddily treated on the way out. In the case of ex-employees however, they are not striking back with fangs, but rather with a two-legged guard dog that’s morphed into a lawsuit.Granted, not all employment-related litigation is avoidable. But if an employer is careful, forthright and professional with an employee during the separation process, the odds of an amicable separation are much higher. While the Golden Rule is a good starting point, there are other actions that employers should take to avoid the most common miscues in employee terminations, as described below. They are:Breaking Promises Broken promises generate a significant amount of employment-related litigation. If an employee believes that the employer has failed to de...

Jenna Jameson's botched vaginoplasty jeopardizing her porn flick chances
2007-04-02 15:15:00 Porn star Jenna Jameson is reportedly so annoyed with the results of her vaginoplasty that she has refused to speak to anyone, and in turn has almost jeopardised her best-selling book, "How to Make Love Like a Porn Star's, " chances of being made into a movie. "She hasn't been showing up for meetings with a major production company interested in Porn Star," a source was quoted by the New York Daily News, as saying. The real reason for her seeming lack of interest is apparently her nip/tuck woes. "She underwent a vaginoplasty at a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, and she is very unhappy. She has decided to hole up and not speak to anybody. The producers are about to pull the plug on the movie," " the source added.

Nothing Was Botched But The Robbery
2007-02-16 22:11:01 Unless the death penalty is applied regularly when warranted, it loses the deterrent effect. That is precisely what opponents of capital punishment are banking on. When they can successfully argue there's no more deterrent, it opens the door to their next argument; that capital punishment should be ended altogether. That is what liberals do best. Chip away at your laws, border, culture, traditions, your religion, morals, ethics and intelligence, one little morsel at a time. One day, you're going to wake up, and it'll all be gone.
U.S. May Have Botched Training of Iraqis
2007-02-02 05:44:02 WASHINGTON (AP) - Training the police is as important to stabilizing Iraq as standing up an army there, but the United States has botched the job by assigning the wrong agencies to the task, two members of the Iraq Study Group say. ?The police training system has not gone well,? former Rep. Lee Hamilton, who co-chaired the bipartisan commission, said in remarks prepared for delivery Wednesday to the Senate Judiciary Committee. He was joined in his statements by another member of the study group, Edwin Meese III, who was attorney general during the Reagan administration. The U.S. erred by first assigning the task of shaping the judicial system in a largely lawless country to the State Department and private contractors who ?did not have the expertise or the manpower to get the job done,? Hamilton and Meese said in testimony obtained by The Associated Press. In 2004, the mission was assigned to the Defense Department, which devoted more money to the task. But department officials also...

Pete Burns sues over botched lip job
2007-01-26 02:40:02 Pop star Pete Burns revealed today he is suing his plastic surgeon for "wrecking his career and life". Burns, singer with 1980s pop band Dead or Alive, has had several cosmetic procedures on his face and is suing a Harley Street surgeon for an estimated £1million over a botched attempt to remove lip implants. In an exclusive interview he told the Standard he looked like he had been "mutilated with a Stanley knife" after surgery to correct the original problems left his top lip hanging off. The singer, who re-surfaced in last year’s Celebrity Big Brother, has had more than 100 operations by specialists in Italy to try to correct the damage but fears he will always be disfigured. Speaking from Italy, where surgeon Giovanni Ferrando is due to operate again on his lips, Burns said: "It has taken away my life and my career. I saw doctors in London who said the only option was to amputate my lips. I was suicidal. "Eventually I found a doctor ...
When good toys go bad II: toy cellphone botches ?six?
2007-01-01 01:05:01 There’s acceptable ways to drop the H-Bomb and F-Bomb, and there’s “when good toys go bad.” Presumably turning a joyous, thrilling Christmas morning into one giant moment of awkwardness, a South Carolina mum was aghast when her son’s toy phone, which was purchased from K-Mart as an innocent symbol of motherly love, vocalized “profanity” (mmkay?) instead of “the number six” when pressed. The phone reportedly shouts out numbers when the respective keys are mashed, but unfortunately for Brandy Cunningham, “six” didn’t exactly turn out like it should have. Leading to eventual embarrassment, she claims her son has repeated the taboo vocabulary in places like “church” and “the grocery store,” leaving the parent in quite a predicament. She even purchased yet another one just in case the phone was a one-time mishap, but found that not to be the case. A spokeperson for Sears / K-Mar...
Experts: Botched injection was painful
2006-12-19 15:20:01 "The excruciating pain and torture my uncle went through for 34 minutes. He was literally crucified."CNN.com12/18/06OCALA-, Florida (AP) -- Death penalty foes have warned for years of the possibility that an inmate being executed by lethal injection could remain conscious, experiencing severe pain as he slowly dies.That day may have arrived.Angel Nieves Diaz, a career criminal executed for killing a Miami topless bar manager 27 years ago, was given a rare second dose of deadly chemicals as he took more than twice the usual time to succumb.Needles that were supposed to inject drugs into the 55-year-old man's veins were instead pushed all the way through the blood vessels into surrounding soft tissue. A medical examiner said he had chemical burns on both arms."It really sounds like he was tortured to death," said Jonathan Groner, associate professor of surgery at the Ohio State Medical School, a surgeon who opposes the death penalty and writes frequently about lethal injection.
