Leyland 'flabbergasted' by Shef's unhappiness

Sheffield believes he's not being used to his fullest abilities in Detroit

DETROIT - Gary Sheffield and Jim Leyland might just have to agree to disagree.

Sheffield said he wants to play every day and the nine-time All-Star feels he’s in a platoon for the Detroit Tigers. He also said he doesn’t think he should be solely a designated hitter.

Leyland said he’s “flabbergasted” by Sheffield’s comments, which were published in a Boston Globe story and repeated Monday, because shoulder injuries have limited his playing time and accepting his role as a DH was a condition of being acquired.

General manager Dave Dombrowski shrugged his shoulders when asked about Sheffield being unhappy about being a DH.

“If he’s found out he doesn’t like it, well, that’s the only role we have for him at this time,” Dombrowski said. “He has not shown from a health perspective that he’s been able to play every day in the outfield. He just has to perform the task that’s asked of him.”

Deep Space Homer (1994)

Original Air Date: 24 February 1994 (Season 5, Episode 15)





http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_Space_Homer

"Deep Space Homer" is the fifteenth episode of The Simpsons' fifth season and first aired on February 24, 1994


Homer fails to put on his "shuttle belt" and is blown out of the hatch. Buzz pulls him inside but due to the vacuum's sheer force, Homer breaks the hatch handle. He inadvertently uses a carbon rod to seal the door shut and they return to Earth.


Although Buzz Aldrin declares Homer the hero, the press see the inanimate carbon rod as being the bigger hero. The rod is then featured on magazine covers with the words "In Rod We Trust" printed below its photos and is given its own ticker-tape parade. Back at home, Homer is disappointed that he did not get as much respect as he had hoped, but the family still honors him for his achievement

The year is 2020 and NASA has made another giant leap for mankind- successfully landing a team of astronauts on Mars. However, shortly after their arrival on the Martian surface, Mission Commander Luke Graham and his colleagues encounter something bizarre, shocking and chilling that brings about a catastrophic and mysterious disaster which decimates the crew. Graham is able to send one hasty cryptic message back to Earth before his nightmare begins. Haunted by the enigmatic last communication received from the ill-fated Mars One crew, NASA hurriedly prepares and launches a rescue mission to investigate the tragedy and bring back survivors- if any. Co-piloted by Commander Woody Blake and Jim McConnell, with colleagues Dr. Terri Fisher and scientist Phil Ohlmyer on board, the astronauts set out on a heroic six-month journey to Mars.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History

History is the study of the past, particularly the written record of the human race, but more generally including scientific and archaeological discoveries about the past.


All events that are remembered and preserved in some form (that cannot be invalidated as unhistorical or that otherwise remain amenable to historical discourse) constitute the historical record. The self-assigned task of historical discourse is to identify the sources which can contribute to the production of truthful accounts of past. Thus, the constitution of the historian's archive is a result of circumscribing a more general archive by invalidating the usage of certain texts and documents (by falsifying their claims to represent the 'true past').





http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indoctrination

Indoctrination

Indoctrination is the process of inculcating ideas, attitudes, cognitive strategies or a professional methodology. It is often distinguished from education by the fact that the indoctrinated person is expected not to question or critically examine the doctrine they have learned. As such it is used pejoratively. Instruction in the basic principles of science, in particular, can not properly be called indoctrination, in the sense that the fundamental principals of science call for critical self-evaluation and skeptical scrutiny of one's own ideas.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History

History is the study of the past, particularly the written record of the human race, but more generally including scientific and archaeological discoveries about the past.


All events that are remembered and preserved in some form (that cannot be invalidated as unhistorical or that otherwise remain amenable to historical discourse) constitute the historical record. The self-assigned task of historical discourse is to identify the sources which can contribute to the production of truthful accounts of past. Thus, the constitution of the historian's archive is a result of circumscribing a more general archive by invalidating the usage of certain texts and documents (by falsifying their claims to represent the 'true past').

Christopher Columbus

Christopher Columbus (1451 – May 20, 1506) was an Italian navigator, colonizer and explorer whose voyages across the Atlantic Ocean led to general European awareness of the American continents in the Western Hemisphere. Though not the first to reach the Americas from Afro-Eurasia — preceded some five hundred years by Leif Ericson, and perhaps by others — Columbus initiated widespread contact between Europeans and indigenous Americans. With his several hapless attempts at establishing a settlement on the island of Hispaniola, he personally initiated the process of Spanish colonization which foreshadowed general European colonization of the "New World." (The term "pre-Columbian" is sometimes used to refer to the peoples and cultures of the Americas before the arrival of Columbus and his European successors.)

His initial 1492 voyage came at a critical time of growing national imperialism and economic competition between developing nation states seeking wealth from the establishment of trade routes and colonies. In this sociopolitical climate, Columbus's far-fetched scheme won the attention of Queen Isabella of Spain. Severely underestimating the circumference of the Earth, he hypothesized that a westward route from Iberia to the Indies would be shorter and more direct than the overland trade route through Arabia. If true, this would allow Spain entry into the lucrative spice trade — heretofore commanded by the Arabs and Italians. Following his plotted course, he instead landed within the Bahamas Archipelago at a locale he named San Salvador. Mistaking the North-American island for the East-Asian mainland, he referred to its inhabitants as "Indians".



Funding campaign

In 1485, Columbus presented his plans to John II, King of Portugal. He proposed the king equip three sturdy ships and grant Columbus one year's time to sail out into the Atlantic, search for a western route to Orient, and then return home. Columbus also requested he be made "Great Admiral of the Ocean", created governor of any and all lands he discovered, and given one-tenth of all revenue from those lands discovered. The king submitted the proposal to his experts, who rejected it. It was their considered opinion that Columbus' proposed route of 2,400 miles (3,860 km) was, in fact, far too short.

I'm a pretty good stickjockey.
Call me if you want a flight test.

:06:49
- What is a stickjockey ?
- "I'm a pretty good stickjockey."

:06:51
Come on, Mr. Cover
of Time Magazine.

:06:53
- The guy who landed
the crippled Block II shuttle.
- Yeah.

:06:56
- That's the stickjockey.
- The stickjockey did that.

:06:58
- Yeah, Mr. StickJockey.
- Okay, I made a little noise,

:07:01
but putting the first
footprints on Mars ?

:07:03
That's for guys who wrote their Ph.D.
thesis on how to colonize the place...

:07:09
and for guys who read too much
science fiction as a kid...

18 June 1981

The Lockheed F-117A Nighthawk is a stealth ground attack aircraft flown solely by the United States Air Force. As a product of the Lockheed Have Blue stealth prototype program, it became the first operational aircraft initially designed around stealth technology.


As it prioritized stealth over aerodynamics, the first model was nicknamed "The Hopeless Diamond".[21] Similarly, it earned the nickname "Wobbly-Goblin" due to its alleged instability at low speeds; according to F-117 pilots, the nickname is undeserved.[22] "Wobbly (or wobblin') Goblin" is very likely a holdover from the early Have Blue / Senior Trend (FSD) days of the project when instability was a problem.

F-117A NIGHTHAWK

Background

The F-117A production decision was made in 1978 with a contract awarded to Lockheed Advanced Development Projects, the "Skunk Works," in Burbank, Calif. The first flight over the Nevada test ranges was on June 18, 1981, only 31 months after the full-scale development decision.
