Ralph Willard Terry (b. January 9, 1936) is a former right-handed pitcher in Major League Baseball. Terry is perhaps best known as the MVP of the 1962 World Series, and for giving up the walk-off home run to Bill Mazeroski that enabled the Pittsburgh Pirates to win the 1960 World Series.
Terry played for the Independence Indians in the Ban Johnson League in 1953. The home field for the Independence Indians was Shulthis Stadium in Independence, Kansas. The stadium is the same one that Mickey Mantle started his career at with the Independence Yankees in 1949.
Terry made his major league debut in 1956, going 1-2 in three games played in his rookie season. The following year, he appeared in seven games, making two starts, before being traded to the Kansas City Athletics on June 15. Terry finished the 1957 season 4-11 in 19 starts for the Athletics. He rebounded somewhat the next season, going 11-13 in 40 games, including 33 starts. In 1959, he started 2-4 with a 5.24 ERA in 9 games. On May 26 of that year, he was traded to the New York Yankees along with Hector Lopez.
Upon his return, Terry went 3-7 with a 3.39 ERA in 24 games, including 16 starts. His career began to take off in 1960, when he posted a 10-8 record and 3.40 ERA. That year, he made his first postseason appearance, in two games of the 1960 World Series. He was 0-2 with a 5.40 ERA in the two games, one start and one relief appearance, and gave up Bill Mazeroski's walk-off homerun in Game Seven.[5]
In 1961, Terry posted a 16-3 record with a 3.15 ERA in 31 games (27 starts). In the 1961 World Series, he was 0-1 with a 4.82 ERA in two starts, but won his first championship when the Yankees defeated the Cincinnati Reds in five games.
Terry's finest season was 1962, where he went 23-12 with a 3.19 ERA. That year, he posted career bests with 23 wins, 39 starts, 298.2 innings pitched, and 176 strikeouts against 57 walks. His 23 victories led the American League. Returning to the World Series, he went 2-1 with a 1.80 ERA and 16 strikeouts in 25 innings over three games against the San Francisco Giants. His performance earned him the World Series MVP award that season.
With the Mets in 1966, Terry went 0-1 with a 4.74 ERA in 11 games, six as a reliever. In 1967, Terry pitched in just two games, and finished one, before being released on May 16. He subsequently retired.
After baseball, Terry became a professional golfer. He won the 1980 Midwest PGA Championship and based on his status as a PGA of America sectional champion, he qualified for and played in four PGA Tour events in 1981 and 1982.
Walking out to find the north entrance to the Clyde Pedestrian Tunnel one day, I noticed this out across the river from where the Clyde Port buildings used to be. There could be some economic smartarse-ery to be had with this, but I leave that to you...

Photos tagged "sunrise" taken since 2003-1-1.
Their horizontal positions represent the day of the year the photo was taken. The vertical bars are the boundaries between months.
There was a big increase in quantity as we get near to today's date (2005-2-16).
This is the second version of <a href="this graph. In this version I am dimming the photos proportional to the number of submissions for that day, to minimize the effect of increasing submissions during the past year. This makes the seasonal change in sunrise times more apparent.
The vertical position represents the time of day the photo was taken, according to the EXIF data. The horizontal lines are hours, with the thick line in the middle representing 12 noon.
I assume these times are not local, but note the cluster of photos around 6:00 am, rising into spring, and then getting later in the day as the year progresses into Autumn.
The "sunset" version of this graph follows - there are about 5 times more "sunset" tags.--

Facebook Open Graph is a great opportunity for brands, that will be able to activate their digital experiences in a customized way for the user, at a level that's unprecedented. They'll be able to reach the user and her connections as well very easily.
Facebook Open Graph is - in fact - "the portable user": it makes the whole social web a part of the Facebook ecosystem.
What can expect for the future?
Digital experiences will be personalized and integrated with each other;
Facebook.com won't be the only Facebook destination and - in the long term - it will loose relative relevance because it will be overwhelmed by Facebook as an ecosystem;
Facebook Connect won't exist anymore because Open Graph will make interaction more immediate and direct;
This is a Social network anlysis from www.linkedinlabs.com/inmaps of my LinkedIn contacts. The color coding corresponds to different groups that I know, and how the tool classifies them. (I will say that it is remarkably correct)

I have made a graph out of the images to show how the uncanny valley effect worked in my case, with the experiment that I made with Alpha, 4 years ago:

(This is almost the same as the one which I uploaded just before, except that I flattened out all the gradients that I had in that one. Seemed a bit too much somehow...)
