Activist/comedian Dick Gregory was arrested for civil disobedience several times, and his activism spurred him to run for mayor of Chicago in 1966 and for president in 1968. In the early 1970s Gregory abandoned comedy to focus on his political interests, which widened from race relations to include such issues as violence, world hunger, capital punishment, drug abuse and poor health care.© 2014 A+E Networks.

A lot of people in this town have their knickers in a twist. The casinos are coming! The casinos are coming! they yell, like it's the goddamned Redcoats charging down High Street with a fistful of poker chips and plastic platinum club cards.
Well listen up, bub. I've got a little news for ya.
The casinos are already here.
We're a gamblin' town. Always been. Beneath that standoffish Quaker exterior is a white hot devil shaking his little fist and waiting to roll the Big One. The one that will change everything. The roll dreams are made of. No, we won't admit it to anybody. But we're all aching for it. You'd better believe it.
And since we're a gamblin' town, this burg is jammed with games of chance and skill — and sometimes, blind stupid luck. Live here long enough, you slowly learn the rules. You learn to spot the other faces in the crowd, and you can tell the winners from the losers, high rollers from the bottom feeders, early birds from the night owls. And then after a while you realize that it really doesn't matter, that we're all chasing after the same golden goose.
I see you're new at this, kid. Don't worry. We'll get it all sorted for you.
In the pages that follow, we'll take you through the streets and parlors of CasinoDelphia, the big damn glittering palace of thrill and despair. You'll hit the artsy joints and the music halls (p. 22). The chop joints and taverns (p. 36). The high-falutin' boutiques and haberdasheries (p. 46). The smoke-filled backrooms (p. 28) and the sweat-soaked sporting arenas (p. 52).
Don't be frightened. I'll spot you the two bits to get started. Come on. It's right this way.

On-Campus Employment:
"On-campus employment must either be performed on the school's premises, (including on-location commercial firms which provide services for students on campus, such as the school bookstore or cafeteria), or at an off-campus location which is educationally affiliated with the school. Employment with on-site commercial firms, such as a construction company building a school building, which do not provide direct student services is not deemed on-campus employment for the purposes of this paragraph. In the case of off-campus locations, the educational affiliation must be associated with the school's established curriculum or related to contractually funded research projects at the postgraduate level."(8 C.F.R. 214.2(f) (9) (i)
Here are Tips to find an On-Campus Employment . -
Employment for those of F-1/J-1 status does not require special permission from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS).
- Employment is limited to 20 hours per week when school is in session. Students may work at more than one campus location, but the total number of hours may not exceed 20 hours per week. Working more than 20 hours per week on campus is allowed only during regular school breaks (winter & spring breaks) and during the summer term (continuing students only). The summer term is considered the official annual vacation for F-1 student enrollment purposes. Students who begin a new program in the summer term are not eligible for annual vacation until the next summer. On-campus employment cannot interfere with making normal progress towards completing the program of study. Students are expected to follow college/departmental policies and Human Resources/Student Employment policies regarding on-campus employment.
Newly arrived students who entered the U.S. in initial SEVIS status and transfer students from other institutions within the U.S. may begin on-campus employment no more than 30 days prior to the first day of classes. Students planning to transfer from FAU to another institution may work at FAU until their SEVIS transfer release date.
Students currently enrolled at more than one institution can only work on-campus at the institution holding their SEVIS records.
Students securing an on-campus job must report to the Student Employment Office to complete necessary paperwork and orientations.
Off-Campus Employment- Requires Employment Authorization Document (EAD) from USCIS
Unforeseen Economic Hardship:
Students must meet with an ISSS advisor to discuss eligibility criteria for this category
Students must have maintained F-1 status for at least one full academic year (two consecutive semesters of full-time enrollment)

Is granted by USCIS in one-year increments or until the program end-date, whichever is shorter
Is terminated upon transferring schools
Is limited to 20 hours per week while school is in session and may exceed 20 hours per week during official school breaks
How to obtain a Social Security Card:
Students newly arrived in the U.S. must wait at least 10 days prior to requesting a social security number (SSN) from the Social Security Administration office. During the 10-day period, students must complete check-in with ISSS; clear registration holds and register for classes; obtain a departmental memo confirming employment (addressed to ISSS); and obtain the ISSS support letter for the Social Security Administration office.
Current students who traveled abroad and recently returned to the U.S. should also wait 10 days after date of entry to apply for the Social Security Number.

Response to: AOP...
Lots of interesting ideas here! It seems very natural to implement memoization as a part of a AOP framework, as you really get a lot of control over which methods to memoize. (Although if you are not using AOP, the approach presented in the article works just fine.) I will definitely check out Nanning.

Oh yeah, by "successfully employed," I meant that I used the same approach as you in the past. Knocked out thousands of lines of code.

I ordered a graphics card off these guys about 2 months ago, the website said it was in stock. I received order confirmation and assurances the card would delivered within a week. Over the course of the next month I phoned the company 3 or 4 times, each time receiving assurances that the card would be delivered within the next week. After the month was up they finally admitted that the card wasn't in stock and said they would issue a refund. Another month has passed and still no refund. I have handed the details over to my credit card company and they are handling this from now on. DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY. THEY WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY AND NOT SEND YOUR ORDER OR REFUND YOU.

I persist in using brute as HoF. It's absolutely durable because it the fusor makes it easier to defend against harassers. You do however have to be more active. One can't just stand on the flag and wait for people to ram into you (super heavy perk).
I'm also using brute to attack the enemy base. It's more of a tank than the other attackers. He can take more damage, and has the disconade which I usually throw when I've attracted enough enemies).
If you think the Devastator is OP (/too powerful), take in consideration that it has a very long reload time compared to other fusors. And a miss is more costly than usual too. One can't argue that if a person is skilled enough to always have the upper hand (being able to direct hit most of the time) with the Devastator, it's too powerful. Because then it's the skill of the player that makes it so good. Oh - and it deals 1204 on direct hit, FYI.
On a side note (well, this is just T:A general thread anyway):

Shook Ones
Shook Ones
Melodic hardcore punk unit Shook Ones came to life around vocalist Scott Freeman and guitarist Zach "Funds" Muljat at the end of 2004 in a Bellingham, WA basement (though the band would later relocate to Seattle). Largely influenced by acts like Lifetime, Jawbreaker, and 7 Seconds, the group released a self-titled demo that same year, which aptly set the stage for Sixteen, their fast and abrasive full-length debut, on New York's Endwell Records in 2005. The album began to turn heads in the punk underground, and at the tail-end of the year, that buzz (and some luck) had led Shook Ones into inking a deal with Revelation Records. Two albums were released in 2006 through the label; the 7" Slaughter of the Insole appeared first, followed by the full-length Facetious Folly Feat, which showcased melodic rock moments alongside their blistering pop-punk. By then, Freeman and Muljat were rounded out by drummer Jimmy Walsh (ex-No Roses), bassist Bo Stewart and guitarist Kelly Aiken. The band set out on the road playing shows with Paint It Black, Less Than Jake, and Smoke or Fire; they also took time to hit the studio and record two split 7's, one with Japan's Easel (2007) and one with New York's End of a Year (2008). By the end of 2007, Shook Ones and Revelation had gone their separate ways, and in the summer of 2008, they hooked up instead with the recently launched Florida label Paper + Plastick Records, owned by Vinnie Fiorello of Less Than Jake. They entered the studio in October to record their third full-length, The Unquotable A.M.H. (the title an inside reference to actor Anthony Michael Hall), and a tour of Europe led into its release (digital and vinyl only) in June 2009. Shook Ones played a set that fall at the popular Gainesville punk festival The Fest, before hitting the road on dates with Title Fight and We Are the Union. ~ Corey Apar, Rovi

P.S., speaking of writing lyrics, I just finished writing the opening number for the upcoming Easter Bonnet Competition! Michael Graziano from Broadway Cares wrote a version of "It's Today" and asked me to sass it up. I was crazily overwhelmed and put it off for weeks, right up until I realized I had to do it or someone else would. I wrote the whole thing in an hour. Chris Gattelli and I used to put together all the Easter Bonnet opening numbers for years, until we began to have too many conflicts and we both had to stop. I'm so, so happy to do it again! Go get tickets at BroadwayCares.org to see it on April 22 and 23, and yes, we know that it's many weeks past Easter. Believe me, that will be addressed in the opening number.
Anyhoo, back to Marissa. We were talking about her time starring in Hairspray and the crazy pressure she was under. One producer flat out told her, "You have a $10,000,000 musical riding on you!" Yay! That relaxed her. The flip side of that pressure was how much fun it was to do the show and how crazily popular it was. She told us that one day her agent called and said, "I know you won't want to do this, but I need to tell you that you were offered [a ton of money] to sing three songs at a boy's bar mitzvah." Marissa said to him that if she ever turned down that kind of money, he should fire her as a client. She gave an emphatic yes, but told him that she didn't have three Hairspray songs to sing. Only "Good Morning Baltimore" and "I Can Hear The Bells," so she offered Matt Morrison some money to come with her and sing "You Can't Stop the Beat," "Without Love" and a couple of random things like "Summer Nights." She said she made so much money that she bought her parents a house! Of course, now she thinks it's hilarious that Matt is so famous, because the bar mitzvah boy probably shows everyone pictures of his party and says, "I had Matt Morrison from 'Glee' at my bar mitzvah! Look!" Followed with, "He was singing with some girl!" P.S., you can watch the entire Chatterbox at SethTV.com. Just $5 a month! Much less than what Marissa was paid for that bar mitzvah.
Marissa's most recent television show was "Retired at 35," where she played George Segal and Jessica Walter's daughter. She said that when people asked if it was renewed she responds, "Put it this way; my mother would forget to watch it." She claims she'd post a cute picture of her son on Facebook and get a plethora of comments and 300 "likes" on Facebook, then she'd post "Watch 'Retired at 35' tonight" and receive crickets. Literally nary a comment or like.

can't the media leave them alone,isn't it enough that the reason Princess Di is dead its because of the media picture hungry morons who is out for a quick buck,for pete sakes leave them alone and let william and kate live a happy life.I thought there was a law with stalking.
if you dont want people to take picture dont wear a bikini out on a public beach. this entire thing is stupid, if you ask for attention, dont be all put out when you get it.
Don't get why they are so upset!!!!! You are a royal walking on a beach with a bikini and you expect no pics to come up? It's a beach for crying out loud. How you'd expect total privacy at a beach beats me!!!!!!
if you have respect for the brittish royals, you won't be posting this.
Hard to understand why the royals are so upset. Simple pictures of the couple walking down the beach looking perfectly wonderful.

Bernhard Langer has played golf and won tournaments all over the world. But the three-time Champions Tour Player of the Year will defend his title at the ACE Group Classic at a course he has yet to play, the Eagle Course at the Club at TwinEagles Club in Naples.
The last time the ACE Group Classic was held there (2006), Langer was not yet playing on the Champions Tour.
This month, the Champions Tour returns to the Naples-based club to play for the 25th straight year in southwest Florida and at a site that hosted the tournament from 2002-2006.
NBC2 Sports Director Brian Colleran hosted a Q&A with the 54-year old Langer during the ACE Group Classic media day.
They spoke about Langer's 2011 victory, defending that title on a new course and the world golf Hall-of-Famer's return from a thumb injury that cost him most of the 2011 season.
The ACE Group Classic is February 13th - 19th.

Did Apple pay some to stand in the line?
plenty in stock in most of the stores.... continues on the third day.... every time, a line forms.... all can get one within 10 to 20 minutes.
Did apple pay people to stand in the line to look like that the demand is very high? In fact, the demand is so low that so called delayed shipments are all delivered ahead of schedule.... is apple trying to manipulate the news so that their executives can unload their stocks before people realize? I don't know. but it's worth asking.... |

Conspiracy theories never end....
Why is there store stock in some places? (and can you name any....) Because not even Apple cn guess how much to send to every location in the world that sells iPhones. There are none within a 2 hour drive of my daughter. She has called everyone.... Why are they able to ship early on back orders? Because they have always done this. They under promise and over deliver on back orders. This is much better than over promising and under delivering. It's a strategy... Did they pay people to stand in line? Of course not. Don't be an idiot. The demand is real. The shortages are real. They will sell 40,000,000 phones this quarter. Why in the world would they hold anything back. |

Yes, you are correct. Apple decided to hire thousands of people in New York City and throughout the nation just to stand in front of their stores to give this magical illusion. The paid participants also appeared to be purchasing the phone, but in all reality, they walked out with an empty iphone 5 box but it looks like they walked out with the product. All of this is a conspiracy. The iPhone 5 does not exist and we are all being paid to act like we are all purchasing one/have one. You live in the Bay Area and you're telling me there was plenty of stock laying around the first three days of release for the iPhone 5? Your state in general had one of the worst shortages in the nation. Nice try troll. |

New iPhone
Hey Apple, you want to make some waves? Come out with an inexpensive iPhone that everyone can afford, like the VW. Be creative in design and function, doesn't have to be a smart phone, keep the price limit under $20. Crazy you say, it would give new life to a company that has become FAT in their thinking and self satisfied with their earnings!! Steve said don't be like me, but I'm thinking do be like him and don't be satisfied with what you have done before!!!

I honestly believe that the demand went down with the release of the iPad 3.

The term hatchback conjures up many images. But my tester for the week — the Audi A7 — makes you rethink everything about a hatchback.
Long, dominating grille, fading roofline, elegant, luxurious and sexy — those are the images of THIS hatchback.
This five-door sedan stretches 195.6 inches in length with a 114.7 inch wheelbase. The A7 is long, and even drives a little bit long. But, after you get past the large, aggressive grille that Audi is known for, you see a fading roofline that makes the A7 look smaller than other luxury sedans of the same size.
And that's part of the charm of the A7 — it is deceptive in many ways.
My tester was the 3.0 TFSI quattro which brings with it a 3.0-liter, 310-horsepower supercharged V6 engine with direct injection. Combined with Audi's Dynamic Shift Program and Tiptronic 8-speed automatic transmission, you have a sedan that is finely tuned and ready to drive in city conditions or on the highway. The quattro all-wheel drive system grips the car to the road.
Thanks to its sexy low profile, the A7 has responsive steering, which aided by the quattro system's enhanced torque vectoring, makes cornering exhilirating. It is quite nimble for a vehicle of its length.
Inside, there is nothing deceptive about the luxury. For years, Audi has been known for luxury, and it certainly delivers that in the A7.
Luxurious wood-grain veneers accessorize the interior, as does brushed aluminum trim work. And of course, leather dominates the rest of the interior including the dashboard, steering wheel and heated seats.
The A7 has three available models (Premium, Premium Plus and Prestige). My tester was the Prestige model, which brings even more luxury with it such as 4-zone climate controls (giving even rear passengers control over their preferred temperature), 20-inch all-season tires and the innovation package, which includes navigation with MMI touch and the Bang & Olufsen Advanced Sound System.
The MMI touch, which stands for Multi-Media Interface, includes a Google Earth-based navigation system, and a touch screen activated system where the driver can simply write (with a fingertip) the letters of the address or other commands that the MMI controls. I used this system and found it very intuitive and easy to use.
The Bang & Olufsen sound system was a show off. Speakers rose out of the corners of the dashboard and threw sound throughout the car, which has been acoustically designed for maximum sound quality.
Rear passengers enjoy ample legroom, due to the length of the A7, but will want for more headroom thanks to its fading roofline. With rear bucket seats, the A7 is only rated for four passengers.
Lift the rear hatch to find 24.5 cubic feet of space. The trunk opening is narrow but long. There is a height-adjustable power-lift system that opens and closes with the touch of a button. 60/40 split rear seats expand the cargo area further, making the A7 quite resourceful.
Because of the Tiptronic transmission, the A7 has an adequate fuel efficiency rating of 18 city/28 highway. In a week's worth of heavy-footed driving, I averaged about 23 MPG. Like most luxury vehicles, premium fuel is recommended for the A7.
Base price for the A7 is $59,250. With the top-of-the-line model and the added packages, my tester came in at a hefty price of $80,130, so you can easily get carried away with luxurious upgrades with this vehicle, although many of them are worth the price tag.
As you take in the sound system, the luxurious amenities and the supercharged engine, you grow to appreciate the Audi A7 as a different kind of hatchback.

Brucellosis is a bacterial infection that spreads from animals to people — most often via unpasteurized milk, cheese and other dairy products. More rarely, the bacteria that cause brucellosis can spread through the air or through direct contact with infected animals.
Brucellosis symptoms may include fever, joint pain and fatigue. The infection can usually be treated successfully with antibiotics. Treatment takes several weeks to months, however, and relapses are common.
While brucellosis is uncommon in the United States, the disease affects hundreds of thousands of people and animals worldwide. Avoiding unpasteurized dairy products and taking precautions when working with animals or in a laboratory can help prevent brucellosis.

These Flexibles scrub pants feature a soft stretch contrast knit waistband. Fold it down to any position that's comfortable for you and the center back waist tack will keep it in place. The straight leg has one side cargo pocket with flap. The fabric is Cherokee's durable poly/cotton blend with soil release. The inseam is 31".
Bought 2 pair of these pants, they look cute but were way to big. I purchased womens medium and had to send them back, I think the sm would be to big
these pants were comfy but were huge! i ordered 4 sets (pants and top) in a 3x the top fit fine but the pants were way to big i may have to return them and get two sizes smaller! i usually wear a size 14-18 depending on the brand.
These are definitely my favorite scrub pants. They do tend to run big, so if you wear a medium, get a small. I would like to have more than the one pocket, but you can actually put stuff in the pocket without you pants feeling like they are going to fall off. I'm 5'9", and they are long enough. They are great!
I love the fold over waste band so comfy. I work in a veterinary hospital and the band keeps my parts hidden when I bend over. Kinda long til washed but a new fave.
Bought a pair of these pants a few months ago in my normal size (large) and they were HUGE, wore them a whole day before I made up my mind, they were cheap so I kept them around. I am not 6 months pregnant and the selection for maternity scrubs is awful- then I remembered these pants! I recommend them in a size smaller than you would normally wear (pregnant or not) and the fold over waist band works perfect for a baby bump when they are unfolded. I will be ordering them in several colors. I am 5'9"" and only needed a regular- long is WAY too long.

Freezer Full of Love
by Julie
We know you HATE to be apart from your honey, but sometimes ya just gotta go. There are times in every relationship where you have to be apart, like it or not. So the next time you go out of town and leave your sweetie at home… all alone… you can let them know you are thinking about them EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. This takes a little bit of planning but is so worth it!! Once you see the darling printables we have for you, I KNOW you will want to do this! Just print this darling page off and cut the cards out. They are all kitchen-themed with a love note, too!:) A big THANKS to Merrymint Designs for designing these darling printables for all of you! Then, for the next few days, make an extra serving or two of your meals and pop them into freezer safe containers. Make sure you are a little discrete about doing this so that your spouse doesn't know what you are up to… :) You might want to tuck them into the deepest part of your freezer for now. If you are not a cook or just don't have the time before you go, no big deal. Just zip over to the grocery store and pick up some freezer meals you know they will like… and don't forget a container of their favorite ice cream too, yum! All you have to do now is attach your notes to the tasty food you are leaving. Don't forget to tell your sweetie that you left something special in the freezer for them. They will, no doubt, be thrilled to have a "freezer full of love" while you are away. If you want some more ideas to connect with your love while you are apart, give Cami's Skype date a try, or if your spouse is the one who has to travel, check out Stephanie's Keep Him Thinking of You post.You Might Also Like These Related Articles

Oh how I wish I were the cook in this relationship, how cute!
I love this idea! I can't imagine when I would use it because I really never go anywhere but that is still so fun…maybe I should forward it on to my husband because he is always the one going away on business trips!
That's a great idea:) Never hurts to send a little hint, right?
This is darling! I love it! Thanks for linking up!

Get More Out of Your GoPro with a Varifocal Zoom Lens
Not too long ago John Hess from FilmmakerIQ shared a few videos about replacing the lens on your GoPro camera. Now he's made a new video showing how he's installed a brand new varifocal zooms lens in his GoPro which actually acts as a macro lens. With all of the new action or POV cameras announced recently, like those from Sony and JVC, it will be interesting to see if those cameras will be as moddable as the GoPro cameras have proven to be. Check out the video embedded below.
Here's what he had to say about the mod:
I ordered a 2.4-12mm varifocal zoom lens from RageCam thinking I could get a little variety with a the zoom capabilities. But to my surprise, the varifocal zoom would actually be the most powerful macro lens I've ever used.
Though it costs almost as much as the unit itself at $130, it's a very interesting option to make the camera even more useful. Most people purchase GoPros because they're easy to use, and small enough to put absolutely anywhere, but adding a lens modification like this one gives it infinitely more options for different types of shooting scenarios. This type of lens could be especially useful if you need the size of a GoPro but don't want the extreme distortion that is usually associated with POV cameras.
Has anyone successfully modded their GoPros with a new lens. If so, how difficult did you find the experience?

This is great…I would like to try doing this to one of my gopros…what lens is that and where did you get it?
That is awesome, I'm testing out that neat video plugin right now which actually does help make the gopro footage usable by reducing all the crazy amounts of noise you get if you shoot indoors. I would like to upgrade the lens soon as they release their app for streaming to the iphone/ipad.
Rick on 07.19.12 @ 4:33PM
It's a really informative video, but you're playing a little fast and loose with some essential optical definitions (and I didn't write them, but I do teach about them at the post-secondary level).
A varifocal lens can alter its focal length by moving optical elements inside, but as you do this, you will have to refocus the lens.
A true zoom lens can alter its focal length by moving optical elements inside, and as you do this, the lens retains sharp focus.
By definition convention among optical engineers, the terms "zoom" and "varifocal" are NOT interchangeable.
A focusable lens (as opposed to a fixed-focus lens as found on el-cheap-o cameras) allows the operator to optimize the focus on the desired subject. A fixed-focus lens uses depth-of-field and (most likely) hyperfocal distance focusing to keep reasonable (but far from perfect) focus over a wide range of camera-to-subject distances. This focus setting is factory set on fixed-focus lenses, and the camera user cannot alter it.
Please be a little more rigorous about the terms as you use them. I'm visibly aging, repeatedly trying to hammer into people that "depth-of-field" and "depth-of-focus" are not, repeat, NOT the same thing.
Again, many thanks for a very cool video. It would be helpful in the text around the video if you could provide link(s) to the parts suppliers you used.
Glenn on 07.19.12 @ 4:51PM
Hey, thanks. That was totally awesome.
Word of advice, however, a DIY screw container should be the next order of business. ; )
Simon on 08.17.12 @ 1:13PM
Amazing. Now I am ,less interested in buying a new camera (possibly GH2) and more interested in doing more with my GoPro… THANK YOU.

Pebble Beach Week 2007: Mormon Meteor takes Best of Show at Pebble
by Frank Filipponio (RSS feed) on Aug 20th, 2007 at 12:02PM
When it came down to it, the best of show winner at the 2007 Pebble Beach Concourse d'Elegance ended up being both a logical and surprising choice. It's a representative of the featured marque. It had elegant and long lines. It had a very colorful history to match its colorful exterior. It attracted a lot of attention parked high above the water along the coastline beside the 18th fairway at the Pebble Beach Golf Links, and yet it somehow didn't seem to capture our attention as much as a few other spectacular vehicles that made this year's 57th Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance so incredible....

March 20, 2013 Rumor RoundupNot Breathing a Sigh of ReliefWhen Ryan Madson signed an incentivized, one-year, $3.5 million contract with the Angels in late November, the right-hander was "confident he [could] be ready by Opening Day." That plan was derailed when Madson dealt with soreness in his surgically repaired elbow in early February, but manager Mike Scioscia still expected him to take over the ninth-inning job "at some point in April." Madson suffers setback in return from elbow surgery Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register was the first to report on Tuesday morning that Madson had been shut down again, because of discomfort that flared up after a bullpen session that he threw last Thursday. Fletcher noted in his tweet that the "team has modified" Madson's recovery timeline again, but details on the new target for the northpaw's return were unavailable at that point. Mike DiGiovanna, who covers the Angels for the Los Angeles Times, added that Madson is already well enough to play long-toss—a positive step, but also a reminder that he still needs to get back on a mound and work through a full strength-rebuilding program before he will be ready to pitch in games. Madson has thrown only two bullpen sessions since he reported to the Angels' facility in Tempe, Arizona, in early February, and he has yet to complete one without requiring a hiatus immediately afterward. The Angels' investment in Madson was a relatively low-risk move, with bonuses tied to games finished and days spent on the active roster, so from a financial standpoint, his early-season absence is only a minor concern. However, it means that Scioscia will travel back to Anaheim with a relief corps much like the one with which he ended the 2012 season, minus Jordan Walden—who was traded to the Braves for Tommy Hanson—and plus Sean Burnett, another free-agent pickup who is ticketed for lefty set-up work and made his spring training debut last week. Fantasy players that have already drafted Madson or are considering a late-round flier on the rehabbing righty, meanwhile, should plan to also select Ernesto Frieri, who will handle the save opportunities in his stead. Mike Gianella ticked Frieri's auction bid limit down in advance of the latest Madson news, but it will almost certainly bounce back in next week's update. Frieri has struggled in Cactus League play so far, allowing five runs in 5 1/3 innings while logging only one strikeout, but the hiccups can be attributed at least partially to his attempt to develop a changeup.
