The Nationals look to make it two in a row at Coors Field tonight.
Last night's game was less notable for the final score (Nationals 5, Rockies 3) than it was for the scary scene in the top of the second that saw Colorado right-hander Juan Nicasio plummet to the ground after getting hit in the head by a line drive off Ian Desmond's bat. For those who haven't heard the latest update, Nicasio had surgery to stabilize a fractured C-1 vertebrae in his neck. Though the club said he's "resting comfortably," it's by no means an insignificant injury. The Rockies training staff is scheduled to update media members later today.
As for tonight's game, Livan Hernandez gets the ball for the Nationals. The veteran right-hander had been suffering through a rough stretch, but he bounced back nicely Monday to beat the Braves and allow only one run over six innings. The talented Jhoulys Chacin (who held the Nats to one run in seven innings last month but hasn't won in his last eight starts, pitches for Colorado.
I'm out of town for the rest of the weekend with limited access to my computer. I'll try to get the lineups posted later, but in the meantime I wanted to get the game thread up so everyone could read the latest on Nicasio. Enjoy tonight's game…

I wouldn't have minded this so much last night, after that terrible injury. But tonight…sheesh.The third out in an inning just seems really out of reach for all our guys tonight.

Anonymous said… Now Burnett fails the 2012 audition. Next? August 6, 2011 10:44 PM _______________Don't think so. Rizzo gave him a 2 year contract in the off-season.FP and Carpenter had the same conversation that some of you had last night about the really bad bullpen other than Clippard & Storen.

Gonat, thanks for mentioning Staples, where I go whenever I see one of those dreadful B-Movie W.B. Mason ads.

I just want there to be a trap door right behind the pitcher's mound — you let a run score and -BAM — down the trap door! What do you think?
- JaneB - Aug 7, 2011 at 2:52 AM
They're doing that gosh darn wave again! This was good for us last night. Maybe it will help again, by dissipating the energy of the Rockies! Morse…get a dinger.

- JaneB - Aug 7, 2011 at 2:59 AM
I don't know what Davey could have done differently tonight, apart from pull Livo a little earlier. But even if he had, he has no one to go to. Thats not his fault. I have to believe if we had anyone in the minors who could come in, we would have seen 'em up by now.Oh, Werth. I feel terrible for you. Another 9 pitch at bat ending in nothing.

- flynnie - Aug 7, 2011 at 3:08 AM
Dave Sheinen did an "All Nice Guy" team. Will Nieves was the catcher – always had a smile on his face, just so happy to be here. Sean "The Mayor" Casey was at 1st. Charlie Manuel managed. Jamie Carroll was at second. Vinnie Castilla may have been at 3rd – maybe Zimm would qualify among active players.
- NatsLady - Aug 7, 2011 at 3:08 AM
After flyout to left, Dunn (0-4) lifted for Lillibridge who homers to put the game away for the Sox, and we come home to my brother's house. What the ??? is going on in Denver???
- baseballswami - Aug 7, 2011 at 3:10 AM
NatsLady — Livo meltdown, bullpen – gas on the fire. Crazy night – it will take you a while to catch up.

flynnie said… Gonat – Who do you like the best of the Nats you've played with? August 6, 2011 11:01 PM ________________Definitely Craig Stammen. He plays like a pro with birdie opportunities on most holes. I have never golfed with Clippard and heard he is really good. Old Nat Tim Redding was good too.

Gonat — both?

With the bases loaded and down six runs, he walks a .157 hitter.There are no words.He pitches like Carl Lewis sings.
- NatsLady - Aug 7, 2011 at 3:18 AM
Didn't have good enough internet connection to watch the Nats game from Target Field. Saw from the out of town scoreboard it was 9-2 and then 9-7, come home it's 13-7. Guess I will check the gameday summary and boxscore, but they probably don't do it justice.
- baseballswami - Aug 7, 2011 at 3:19 AM
The sense of humor seen here is what gets me through a game like this. I hope they can turn the page for tomorrow. Keep the hits and runs, fix the pitching.
- Gonat - Aug 7, 2011 at 3:19 AM
baseballswami, yep, both. Every pitcher except Gorzelanny has played to their scouting report and that isn't a good thing.Coffey can't finish an inning. Livan is inconsistent. Henry Rodriguez is wild and you can hit him when he misses his spots. Burnett will hang one to the 1st batter and score whoever he inherits on base.That sure wraps it up and a good thing Matteus didn't throw.
- flynnie - Aug 7, 2011 at 3:20 AM
We just need two grand slams to tie!
- Exposremains - Aug 7, 2011 at 3:21 AM
I'm not sure how they can keep Hrod on this team. Johnson looked really pissed.
- gonatsgo - Aug 7, 2011 at 3:22 AM
Come on Brian — all we need is an 8 run homer to tie it! The tying run is somewhere in the dugout!
- NatsLady - Aug 7, 2011 at 3:22 AM
They have a very funny rule at Target Field that they announce by loud speaker when you come into the park: You are allowed to have umbrellas in the park but you are not allowed to use them. Nope, you can't open them in the seating area (where it might rain).
- Gonat - Aug 7, 2011 at 3:23 AM

- baseballswami - Aug 7, 2011 at 3:24 AM
Night all – it's been real……
- flynnie - Aug 7, 2011 at 3:28 AM
Seems so Eugene, seems so. And the game comes to a merciful end. The Nats pitchers don't have to pitch, and the hitters don't have to hit until tomorrow afternoon, after which they get a day off. Nights like this make the victories so unlikely and exhilerating! They did this with the Braves, if memory serves. Just got thrashed and came back to win the next day. But, to quote Whitey Herzog, "We're just one or two players short of the playoffs: Babe Ruth and Whitey Ford."
- flynnie - Aug 7, 2011 at 3:31 AM
And I will follow Swammi out the door. Thanks for making a trying night fun!

- NatsLady in Minnesota - Aug 7, 2011 at 3:45 AM
Huh? Day off? Nats have 3 against the Cubs after Sunday. No day off until Thursday. Boy, are we TERRIBLE on the road.
- JaneB - Aug 7, 2011 at 5:59 AM
Gonat, thanks for those snapshots of golf-playing Nats! I also love the idea Flynnie shared of the "all nice guy" team. Livo goes on my roster, as does Morse. But what the IDEA of an all nice guy team did for me was collapse the construct I've had in my heart about when and why I like various players, "All nice guy" team membership is 50% of why I liked Dunn so much (homers being the other part). And I truly didn't register how much the "nice guy, I like you" factor played into my views. I'm a little appalled, actually.
- flynnie - Aug 7, 2011 at 11:34 AM
JaneB – You're a moral North Polar Star. Stars should be likeable. e.g. Cal was at short. The whole world is rooting for Dunn – it was on the front page of the Wednesday Times! I would not want Barry Bonds, Jose Guillen, Albert Belle, or Roger Clemens (who beaned Piazza and then threw a broken bat at him from the mound) on my team. And Zimm et. al. where glad to see Jose Guillen leave.
- flynnie - Aug 7, 2011 at 11:38 AM
NatsLady – Condolences on seeing Dunn go 0-4, only to see the home team lose on a home run by his replacement! And when you turn to the Nats for consolation, you see that their piching staff has everyone thinking of doing a swap with the Sally league.
- Another_Sam - Aug 7, 2011 at 11:57 AM
Regulars here know that there's no one more in Livan's camp than me. But after that inexplicable play he made on the bunt I'm thinking it's time for him to miss a few starts. Another thought: did I read correctly that Lannan has a winning record going into today? Knock me over with a feather.
- flynnie - Aug 7, 2011 at 1:32 PM
Agree on Lannan. Livo was awesome in Houston. I wouldn't ditch him on the basis of one bad start at one mile high. And, for perspective, this excellent post:Mark'd said…Livo's starts. Good, bad, good, good, bad, good for March/April. Bad, bad, good, good, good, bad for May. Good, bad, great, bad, good for June. Good, bad, good, good, bad for July. Great, awful for August. Nats could be 7-17 in games Livan starts after tonight. That record coupled with a 4.41 ERA.August 6, 2011 9:42 PM
- Gonat - Aug 7, 2011 at 1:38 PM
Another_Sam, for next season I am with you but he is still a better option than Wang as this is Livo's pattern usually. Bad then good, so we can only hope. Did anyone have the stomach to watch the post-game show? I think it was Amanda Cormack asked Davey what he thought of Livan's record in Starts: 7-17. Davey brushed right by the question.
- Wally - Aug 7, 2011 at 1:56 PM
Well, that was a stinker. Not much worth rehashing for me, so here are some season observations.Nats 54-59, with 49 games to play. 27-22 gets them to .500, 21-28 gets them to 75 wins. 14-35 gets them to 68 wins (finish worse than last year). I see .500 as more likely than 68 wins, with mid 70's most likely. They have slipped to -23 run differential, 11th in the league. I haven't checked trends but it feels like this has worsened over the last few weeks.They have the 5th best home record n the NL, but unfortunately they are tied for 14th in road record. The feeling that they can't win on the road is backed up by stats. Luckily, they have more than half their remaining games at home (26).So, with all that, it will come down to pitching. Anyone got any to spare?
- Gonat - Aug 7, 2011 at 2:13 PM
Another note from the post-game show. Ray Knight thinks Michael Morse can get to a .330 batting average and win the batting title. Morse is now in 3rd behind some guys named Jose Reyes and Ryan Braun.
- JaneB - Aug 7, 2011 at 2:14 PM
Flynnie, as I read that list of players, my stomach turned. Now I feel better rooting for good players I LIKE! Thanks.Livo is streaky, and he comes back. And he had some fine starts with NO RUN SUPPORT, especially early in tne season. I still put him out there ahead of Wang and Gorzo, whether he is a nice guy or not. Why do people remember only the bad stuff?
- FS - Aug 7, 2011 at 2:24 PM
So any coverage of Strasburg's first rehab here? Mark is out of town, will Chase be able to provide something on that? Please, if possible. Will be much appreciated. Thanks.
- Gonat - Aug 7, 2011 at 2:33 PM
Wally, good stats and agree it will come down to pitching. As bad as Wang and Livo were this week, the bullpen isn't helping. The game last night and the Detwiler game were in reach if the bullpen both games held firm.

Central diabetes insipidus is a rare condition that involves extreme thirst and excessive urination.
Central diabetes insipidus
Central diabetes insipidus occurs when the body has a lower than normal amount of antidiuretic hormone (ADH). ADH is also called vasopressin . ADH is produced in a part of the brain called the hypothalamus . It is then stored and released from the pituitary gland. This is a small gland at the base of the brain.
ADH controls the amount of water excreted in urine. Without ADH, the kidneys do not work properly to keep enough water in the body. The result is a rapid loss of water from the body in the form of dilute urine. This results in the need to drink large amounts of water due to extreme thirst and to make up for excessive water loss in the urine (as much as 4 gallons a day).
The reduced level of ADH may be caused by damage to the hypothalamus or pituitary gland. This damage may be due to surgery, infection, inflammation, tumor , or injury to the brain .
Sometimes the cause is unknown. In rare cases, central diabetes insipidus is caused by a genetic problem.
Symptoms of central diabetes insipidus include:
The health care provider will ask about your medical history and symptoms.
Tests that may be ordered include:
The cause of the underlying condition will be treated.
Vasopressin (desmopressin, DDAVP) is given either as a nasal spray, tablets, or injections. This controls urine output and fluid balance and prevents dehydration .
In mild cases, drinking more water may be all that is needed. If the body's thirst control is not working (for example, if the hypothalamus is damaged), a prescription for a certain amount of water intake may also be needed to ensure proper hydration.
Outcome depends on the cause. If treated, central diabetes insipidus usually does not cause severe problems or result in early death.
Not drinking enough fluids can lead to dehydration and electrolyte imbalance.
When taking vasopressin and your body's thirst control is not normal, drinking more fluids than your body needs can cause dangerous electrolyte imbalance.
Call your health care provider if you develop symptoms of central diabetes insipidus.
If you have central diabetes insipidus, contact your health care provider if frequent urination or extreme thirst return.
Many of the cases may not be preventable. Prompt treatment of infections, tumors, and injuries may reduce risk.

Contact Sports Desk: Call: 603-516-2949 / E-mail: email@example.com Northeast Regional part of wide-open NCAA field
Thursday, March 28, 2013
DURHAM — The University of New Hampshire men's hockey team is the official host of this weekend's NCAA Northeast Regional, but they won't have the shortest drive of the four teams.
"We feel that we're a stronger threat than we were last year," Bazin said. "We've got solid goaltending and offensive contributions from a lot of sources."
"Our goaltending has been stellar, no question," Bazin said. "Our defense, with some added size, has kept some shots outside, and when you do that you have a chance."
BC (22-11-4) is the only other Hockey East school in the 16-team field. The Eagles begin their NCAA title defense on Saturday vs. Union (21-12-5) as the No. 3 seed in the East Regional in Providence, R.I. The Eagles are making their 32nd NCAA tournament appearance overall, including their 14th in the last 16 seasons under coach Jerry York.
The West Regional kicks off on Friday with No. 2 overall seed Minnesota (26-8-5) facing Yale (18-12-3), followed by North Dakota (21-12-7) vs. Niagara (23-9-5). |

The long-awaited writing debut of mcheshpants420 hits the screen in this madcap, bawdy, fun-filled, poignant, hilarious, campy, educational and sexy romp through the bowels of Sealab.
Having nothing better to do, Murphy hires a high-priced feng shui master to "harmonize" Sealab. As the renovations run into the millions, Quinn suspects that "Master Loo" may not be the man Murphy thinks he is. We can't tell you the ending, but you'd better get ready for the ultimate extreme karate smackdown! Hi-yah!
The entire crew, thanks to Murphy, gets trapped in a storage closet. Tempers flare and fists (lots of fists) fly as the gang realizes they may be stuck with each other for a long, long time. Making her small-screen debut in this episode is the inanimate ingenue Buckethead Wendy, who...(sniff) does anybody smell dog urine?
In his quest to build the evilest of all evil empires, Sparks invents a miraculous new drug. "Stimutacs" are billed as an "herbal dietary supplement,"but their side effects are truly amazing--and highly addictive! Can Dr. Quinn foil this nefarious plot?
Well, a summary of this episode would, in its essence, be a spoiler. But get ready to see some of your old favorites (and some soon-to-be favorites) in this season finale: Chopper Dave. The Bebop Cola Robot. The Forest Ranger Guy. Skanky Darlene. The Martian Quinn. And who can forget Debbie's boobies?
When things start going missing on Sealab, fingers start to point and tempers start to flare. It'll be up to Murphy and his cadre of Martian Knights to quell the chaos. Or, more accurately, to exacerbate the existing chaos into something much more chaotic. But at the end there might be cake.

W s 1 f. m �� ....� News !;. Vbt. XI. No. 13 T".Hi lij.ir�iL---------------- --' ���" ��!� '� \ BRYN MAWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, FEBkUARY 11,1925 Price 10 Cents DR. GILKEY CONTRASTS MODERN RELIGIOUS VIEWS Amherst Professor Explains How Historical Study Modifies Old * Conservative Beliefs � INSISTS ON COMMON SENSE "Contrasting presuppositions about Jesus today and the two ideas of His life which follow logically upon these suppositions," was the subject of the first of,two lectures] given last Thursday and Friday evenings by s Dr. James Gordon Crikey, under the aus- pices of the Christian Association. The conservatives believe that Jesus Christ ] is the second Person of the Trinity, perfect God and perfect man who at a particular time in history was sent down from heaven to Redeem us from our sins. They believe that He was essentially miraculous and? supernatural, that He manifested his divine power in the resurrection and the ascension, arid, that He was entirely different in every way from us. The liberals, on the other hand, do not* believe that Jesus was a being who came down from hcaveii. but rather that He was: One who attained to the heavenly height,' "Not a Cod who lived humanly, but a Man' who lived divinely," While as the conservatives ^fecl that it; was perfectly natural for Christ to perform miracles, the liberals explain the miracles, in' two way*. The curing of physical or ner- vous diseases was don*1 by therapeutic means. The nature miracles of the loaves and the fishes are legends which grew about Jesus in the period after his death. Conservatives believe that Jesus' death was a foreordained event planned to redeem mankind. Liberals, on the other hand, feel that it was an inexpressibly tragic incident brought about by the conflict between a young prophet and the inexorable Jewish orthodoxy. ' While the conservatives explain the Resur- rection as the exercise of the miraculous power which, he had always, the liberals feel that, just as the personality of all of us will survive death, so the. personality of Jesus, survived. What happened to His body they do not care; what was the par- ticular series of incidents which convinced His disciples that they had seen Him, they don't know. Sometimes the liberal idea has been ac- cused of picturing Jesus as merely a human being. This is, misinterpretation. Liberals feel that God is always trying to give all He can to everybody. But individuals differ in receptivity. Jesus had a personality of unique receptivity into which God could put moral ideas and conceptions of life finer than those of. any other individual. How Jesus of all' mankind came to receive such receptivity is the ultimate problem. The mystery of Jesus' unique personality can never be solved. Jesus' Principles � Modernists feel that Jesus did not save us from our sins but that he brought into the world a brand new way of living built on three brand new ideas: .1, That God is like man, only bigger; 2. That man is lik-_ God; only smaller; 3. That God and men, and men and men, will 'find happiness in each other only through love.

BRUNEL Speakers Strew Hit Contributions To Science and to College A service was held in Taylor Hall last Thursday afternoon in commemoration of Roger Frederick Brunei, Professor of Or- ganic Chemistry at Bryn Mawr, wild died here December 23, 1924. Dr. Norris, old friend and colleague of Dr. Brunei, was the chief speaker. "Brunei," he said, "hasN a very worthy place in American science. His first thesis showed his skill in experiment and the trend of his interests. He was mainly concerned with the fundamental properties of mole- cules, and with the mechanism of changing one molecule into another. He did not seek new substances, as did most organic chemists; he rather sought to understand how molecules reaTt. and to study chemical affinity. It was at this time that he worked in close contact with Michaels, a scientist of international fame, who has written of Dr. Brunei: " 'It was a very great shock to hear of his death. He had a fine character, an acute mentality and unusual skill in experiment. He had already made himself known as one of* the ablest of organic chemists, and he could have gone much farther had he Jived.' "This work with Michaels was of great scientific value, and was also found useful in industrial developments. A great chemi- cal "industry has arisen as a result of the study of how the change in arrangement of molecules affects their reaction. "With Marguerite Wilcox, he wrote a paper on the development of chemical affin- CONTINUED ON PACE 2 , JOINT MEETING OF SELF-GOVT AND UNDERGRAD. FEB. 18th Discussion ^Outlined by H. Hough '25 Will be Open, Covering Both Areas (Specially Contributed by H. Hough, 'is) The first meeting of the jotht legislature of the Undergraduate and Self-Government Associations will^ be held on Wednesday, February 18, at 7.30, in Taylor. Representatives who have been elected in the last week are expected to discuss the business with their constituents. The meet- ing will be open to anyone in college, and discussion will be general. The business is as follows: Undergraduate Association: 1. Discussion as to the relative merits of posting or sending marks* 2. Announcements. Self-Government Association: 1. Question of two or more students going to the theatre at night, unchaperoned, except to the Walnut Street Theatre and the Chestnut Street Opera House. 2. Question of enlarging the Executive Board to three seniors, three juniors, two sophomores and a freshman. 1 (Already passed once.) :t. Places to be added to the list of places where students may dine unchaper- oned in Philadelphia. < 4. Announcements. YALE'S VIEW OF TOTAL ECLIPSE IS DESCRIBED BY DR. BARNES Scientific Results to Depend Measurement From Plates on .Mr. Barnes spoke ii? chapel last Friday morning on the eclipse which he viewed from the top of the Sloane physical labora- tory in New Haven. Until the photographic plates are measured, nothing definite with regard to scientific results of the eclipse will l>e known. He explained that the .shadow fell quickly due to its small angle of incidence with the earth. Astronomers had expected greater darkness: Dr. Page, who was observing with Dr. Barnes, was able to read without additional light. "Two things especially interested me." said Dr. Barnes, � "the Hash spectrum of the chromosphere and the green line in the spec- trum of the corona, the variations of which are very important." The color around the sun was deep blue. A few stars of the first and second magni- tude and the three planets. Jupiter, Mercury and Venus, were clearly discernible. In concluding. Dr. Barnes noted that in spite of the proclamation of the eclipse, issued by the State of Connecticut, contrast- ing the fear of the Ancients and savages with the enlightenment of Americans, there was an unwonted atmosphere of friendliness and helpfulness among the observers. People were also jmpressed^ by the accurate calcu- lations of the astronomers. Considering the tremendous velocity, the size and the various movements of the sun, the moon and the earth, this was indeed a feat of mathematics. CONFERENCE ON SOCIAL WORK TO BE HELD IN PHILADELPHIA Discussion to Treat of Child Welfare in Various Aspects The Third All-Philadelphia Conference on Social Work will be held March 3, 4 and 5 in the Social Service Building. 311 South Juniper street. " . The subject for discussion this year will be "Every-Child"�How He Fares in Phila- delphia. Virtually every social organization in the city, all the universities, colleges, schools, the churches, as well as civic bodies, will participate in the hope of arriving at tangible results regarding the care of chil- dren in Philadelphia. The Conference will discuss education, recreation, employment, mental and physical health, housing and the problems of dependency and delinquency as they affect the child, Jiis parents and com- munity. The Conference last year enrolled 2!�7 or- ganizations and 975 individuals. These numbers will be exceeded this year. George W. Norris has been elected Chair- man. Application for membership should be sent to Mrs. Gideon Boericke, Chairman of the Membership Committee, 311 South Juniper street. The Alumnae Association have under- taken the completion of the fund for the endowment of the Music Department and the Auditorium of the Students' Building This was the decision readied in the an- nual meeting of the association last Satur- day morning. '.Mrs. Louis'Slade (Caroline McCormick, '97) was unanimously elected national chairman of the drive. Wet, Slade sends this message to The Alumnae: Alumnae, Graduate Students, Former Grad- uates and Undergraduates: Mere we arc again : The Alumnae Association lias decreed that we must immediately march ahead to com- plete the fund of $400,000. Once more wc are in campaign, and it is as though the calendar were turned back to 1920 and wc find ourselves stepping into the same old harness. It is a complete surprise to me to .find myself once more the national chair- man, and from my heart I thank the Alum- nae Association for asking me to take that place because I know it means that .every one of you is preparing to take up her al- lotted task. HOW is it'to be done' I do not know, but I know that you will do it. Il'li.n is.it In be done.' Now, and Commencement is the day when we must celebrate success. Why is it to be done' Because the Department of Musfc�that "window open to the sun." as President Clark called it�is now an essential part of the college. F'or four years it has licen given to us by Alice Carter Dickcrman and her committee, who, through their valiant, un- Hagging efforts, have asured its support year by year, and have laid the foundation on which the Department will be permanently built The time has now come for the Alumnae as a whole to assume responsibility and to assure to the College the continuation of the Department�in short, to complcte^thc Endowment. Because for Uhe Auditorium the present Pennsylvania lire laws have reduced the number of seats in Taylor Hall from over 400 to 300 and in the gymnasium from 1000 to 550. And with 500 in our student body we can never again invite an outside audience for plays, for music, for lectures, for re- ligious services, for Commencement, until wc have some hall with more adequate seating capacity. CONTINUED ON PACE 3 ANNUAL REUNION OF AffUMNAE DURING MID-YEAR WEEK-END In accordance with tradition, the AlumnaV gathered from near and far to spend the mid-year week-end at Bryn Mawr. On Fri- day night there was a dinner at the inn. where Miss Schenck spoke on the music courses and what they had meant to the undergraduates. Afterwards, the choir sang in Pen-y-groes. � Miss Park gave a luncheon i" Pembroke, which was followed by a lecture by Mr. O'Conor on "The College Course in Rela- tion to Creative Writing."

I have banked at US Bank for over 10 years and find them to be helpful, friendly, and consistent. Unlike Citibank and Bank of America, I don't see them in the news every night talking about their problems and what the government needs to do to save them. That gives me a lot of confidence in US Bank.
I left Old National after banking there for years because my work was banking through US Bank, and I loved the customer service I would receive when making work transactions. My first bad experience didn't happen until about a year in, up until then, I thought US bank was the best bank I could imagine having. I had never over drafted any checking account of mine, but mistakes are too be made. One day after getting an overdraft notice, I go to the bank to investigate. The bank apologizes and says their fault, refunds the fee. The next day when checking my account, everything is fine, and I go to make a deposit. After depositing my money, three more fees have been added to my checking account that "must have happened when the other one sent my checking account into the negative." Considering that US Bank claimed fault for the first one and said it was their mistake, it seems silly that I was left with so many fees after their mistake. They told me, "since they already refunded the one, they couldn't do anything about it." I went through three different tellers and got three different answers about the fees. US Bank is out to make your dollar. I just got a letter in the mail about a Class Action Settlement against US Bank illegally obtaining over draft fees.
Long story short- do not bank with US Bank!
I have been banking with this bank for over 15 years and I have never been able to get a loan from them. I don't have perfect credit, but it isnt bad. I recently attempted obtain a loan from this institution for a car, and was of course declined. The interesting thing about it is, the amount of available money in my saving acct was almost double the amount of the loan I was applying for, and had been for over a year!! I will be changing bank when I return, will be happy to see the looks on their faces when I ask for my very large check as I am closing out my accts. They certainly do not value their customers.

So cool! Posted it here, if you don't mind: http://blog.hellocaris.com/2012/10/bo...sley-bird/ :)
For anybody who may be interested, I just added laptop skins, iphone cases, tees and more for this artwork! And thanks for all of your amazing comments! xo
not to get all political, but what exactly does it mean to 'look like a girl'? Or 'think like a man'? Sad how misogyny is so deeply engrained in us...especially women. Not a comment to the artist, who's work I love. Just a thought...
Not my favorite quote...quite the sexist statement in every direction, but I do still enjoy your other work.
Wow. What a completely ironically misogynistic quote. "Look like a girl", "Think like a Man"!!?? what are you, a sexist man pretending to empower women?
Yeah. I got that Wesley. You missed my point. I do enjoy the rest of your portfolio and didn't mean offence, but this quote is so odd. Like it's trying to be empowering and achieving the absolute opposite.
This print makes me sad that the artist, the people they show their work to, and the entire staff at society6 have not found it questionable to suggest that women need to "think like a man". This is a terrible thing to suggest, particularly to young women who may be shopping your site.
Our world is characterized by men's thoughts, and I feel that it needs much more input from women, as bosses, to be a better place.

It's really disappointing to see a design like this presented alongside the work of talented artists.
Love this simple message art piece! I also found a good message with a simple drawing is the best art ever! if you like this, you mine like too! (I guess!) See if you we sync anyways! http://society6.com/product/pm-04-jus...rsonalidea
