Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in this history of mankind.
Mankind — that word should have new meaning for all of us today.
We can’t be consumed by our petty differences anymore.
We will be united in our common interests.
Perhaps its fate that today is the 4th of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom, not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution — but from annihilation.
We’re fighting for our right to live, to exist.
And should we win the day, the 4th of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice:
"We will not go quietly into the night!
We will not vanish without a fight!
We’re going to live on!
We’re going to survive!"
Today, we celebrate our Independence Day!

Loaded fine for me

In the world I see--you are stalking elk through the damp canyon forests around the ruins of Rockefeller Center. You'll wear leather clothes that will last you the rest of your life. You'll climb the wrist-thick kudzu vines that wrap the Sears Tower. And when you look down, you'll see tiny figures pounding corn, laying strips of venison on the empty carpool lane of some abandoned superhighway.

If so, you have to add mlb.com to your whitelist. This just changed a week or two ago, not sure if it was a flashblock update or a mozilla update or a MLB update.

As I said, 427.
Two pitches earlier, he’d hit one just foul down the LF line that went about as far. The guy is locked in … which is scary.

but isn’t slugging% inflated partially by his ridiculously high average?

and his ridiculously high total of walks
which decrease his number of at-bats which is why he doesnt have as many home runs…his isolated power is .284 which is still tied for third in MLB…

Top of the morning, gentlemen from Thailand. Think the pen can hold a lead? Think the cost of Singhas will fall?
