Kidnapping is common there as our payouts. From what I know, it's rare for someone to die. I had a coworker whose niece was kidnapped and taken there. Apparently the government doesn't do much. On a positive note, the niece has been reunited with her Dad

That's one of many negative side-effects of Federalism. Give all of the power to the central government, and the little guy gets screwed.

Hopefully you're right, and nothing happens to the guy.

Like others have said, you're making money get you and your people in a safer environment. That said, I hope this has a good ending.

Wilson Ramos found safely!

Rafael Rojas of the Meridiano newspaper in Venezuela just tweeted that Wilson Ramos has been found safely:

Internal Affairs Minister called Ramos family and told them they got him … VZ Information Minister tweets Ramos has been found safely by authorities at mountains at Carabobo state ..

Rojas says that Ramos’ recovery was announced on the PA System at Winter League games in progress and that the crowds went wild.

This is fantastic way to end what has been an awful week. We’ll obviously pass along the details as they come available.

OT: Baltimore Orioles new cap logo, uniform

Retr-O! Cartoon bird makes triumphant return to Orioles caps - Big League Stew - MLB

They look great, IMO. The classic, traditional look is great.

Orioles welcome back cartoon bird as they unveil 2012 uniforms - baltimoresun.com


There's a video and more photos in this article from the Baltimore Sun.

Always liked that look.

 

[CODE_BLUE56]

thats look pretty neat

 

[Jntg4]

Prefer the previous ones over these.

Like the new/old ones. I don't really care what an oriole really looks like. It's actually kind of boring to have a picture out of a birdwatchers book as your logo.

Now the Blue Jays needs to go back to thier old 80s unis (with the white on the cap).

They're set to unveil new uniforms and a new logo is also rumored for Friday. Lots of speculation that they may go back to that very logo. I sure hope they do.
