H fnuznz r/ UNI D sTATEs PATENT OFFICE.
MATTHEW J. FLANNERY, or MATTEsoN. ILLINOIS.
MEANS FOR OIERATING ANDiLOCKINGr SLTDING DOORS.
To all whomtt may. concern: Be it known that I, MATTHEW J. FLAN- NERY, a citizen of the .United States, residing at Matteson, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a new and usefullmprovement inMeans for Operating and Looking Sliding Doors,- of which the following is a specification.
I have devised my improvements for-use more particularly in connection doors, though certain features be utilized in fasteni use in other situations.
thereof may In freight cars, especially, the doors, when freely movable to closed position,-are apt to shift back and forth in their .guides and strike the door-jambs when not looked, as in the case of empty'cars, with the result of impairing their parts. Furthermore when the doors are so constructed that they will jam tight and prevent shifting when the cars are jerked or suddenly stopped, they must be pried open and this often results in mutilating the edges of the doors or the door-j a-mbs, and this'necessity of pry-. ing'open the doors often occurs evenwhen they are fitted to the'guides to be moved freely therein. r
My objects, generally stated, are to .pro; vide an improved form of fastening means, of the automatically locking type, which shall be simple, durable and economical of construction; and to provide for use on freight cars or other structures wherein the movable parts are apt to require the application of relatively great force to initially separate them,-means preferably cooperating withfastening means for the doors, for initially forcing open the closure, as for example, the doors of freight cars.
'Referring to the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a broken face view of a freight car showing a part of the. door thereof equipped with my 'improved fastening and door shifting means, the door being shown in closed position and fastened in place by said means. Fig. 2 is an enlarged section taken at the line 2 on Fig. 1 and viewed in the direction of the arrow. Fig. 3 is a similar view taken at the line 3 on Fig. 1 and viewed in the direction of the arrow. Fig. 4 is a section taken at the line 4 on- Fig. l and viewed in the direction of the arrow, the catch of the fastening means being shown by dotted lines in released position. Fig. 5 is a face view Specification of Letters Patent.
with sliding ng means intended for the door-jamb and of a modification of the structure shown in the preceding figures, designed, more especially, for barn dcors and the like; and Fig. 6 is a s'ection'taken at the line 6 on Fig. 5 and viewed in the direction of the arrow.
Patented Aug. 24, 19115. Application filed March 17, 1915. Serial No. 14,969.
. Referring more particularly to Figs. 1 to 4 inclusive, the keeper of the fastening means is represented at 7, this keeper being shaped as shown, to conform to with one of the side-rails 8 of the door-jamb of the car, and the adjacent body portion of the car, the keeper'being provided with aper tures 9, to receive'bolts 10 for rigidly securing thekeeper inp'osition. The shouldered portion 11 of the vkeeper,'which -is'adapted to cooperate with the catch device hereinafter referred to, extends inwardlv beyond the side-rail 8, and is united with a plate section '12 which extends in *an upwardly 1nclined direction rearwardly from the shoulder 11, this plate being provided with two apertures 13 and 14:, for a purpose hereinafter explained.
The catch-portion of the device which is carried by'the door 15, is represented at 16 and comprises a 'base member'17 and the catch proper 18.- The member 17, which is in the form of a hollow frame, as shown, is adapted to be secured to the outer face of the door as by screws 19, passing through holes'in this member, the forward edge of the member 17 being provided with a rearwardly extending lip 20 which sets into a recess 21 in the front side of the door 15 at the edge thereof adjacent to the rail 8. The member 17 is formed with a cross-piece 22 so disposed as to extend in spaced relation to the bottom portion of the member 17 as shown, and preferably beveled at its rear side, as indicated at 23, this cross-piece cooperating with the catch proper 18 as hereinafter described. Thecatch 18 is in the form of a plate provided in its outer face intermediate its ends witha groove 24; extending transversely thereof, the cross-piece 22 when the catch 18 is assembled with the portion 25 adapted to interlock with the shouldered portion 11 of the keeper, and extending rearwardly and upwardly in, an inclined direction from the shoulder 25, is a plate section 26 provided with openings 27 i and adapted to register with the opens ings 13 and 14, respectively, inthe plate sec tion 1.2 when the catch 18 is interlocked with the keeper 7 (Fig. 4). The other end of, thecatch member 18 cooperates with a'coile'd spring 29 interposed between the base of the member 7 andthe rear side of this end of the catch, this spring operatingto turn the catch member 18 on the cross-piece 22, as a pivot,"in a directionfor forcing 'rearwardly the shouldered portion 25iof'the catch, whereby when the door 15is moved to closed position the shoulder 25 will ride over the shoulder portion 11 ofthe keeper and snap into interlocking engagement therewith as represented in Fig.
In the construction nowbeing described,
the catch 18 is withdrawn from engagement with the keeper 7 to permit the door 15 to be opened, by means of a finger 3O projecting laterally from a shaft 31 journaled in bearings 32 securedto the outer face of the door as by bolts 33 and'providedwith an operating'handle'34, the finger 30 cooperat ing with the inclined rear edge 35 of a man ivardly extending lug 36 provided on the catch 18, theseparts'being so constructed and arranged, as shown, as to cause the catch1'8 to be raised to the position indicated in dotted lines in Fig. 4 for disengaging with theikeeper 7, when the shaft 31- is rotated, through the medium of the handle I 34, in a clockwise direction, in Fig. 2.
' Cotiperating with the fastening device and its'operating means, just described, are means for initially forcing the door 15 to open position upon the act of disengaging the catch 18 from the keeper 7, these means comprising a member 37 bolted or otherwise secured to the face of the rail 8 as indicated at 38 and provided with a laterally extendthe door 15 to the right in Figs. 1 to 4 in clusive, it being readily understood from the foregoing that, assuming the parts to be in the position illustrated in Figs l to 4 inclusive, the operator by grasping the handle 34 and swinging it outwardly, to rotate the shaft 31 in a clockwise direction in Fig. 2, first causes .the catch18 to disengage from the keeper 7 and then force the door 15 to the right in said figures, so that the door is unlocked and initially opened by practically one act on the part of the "operator,'-namely the'swinging of the handle 34 outwardly,
handle also serving as a means whereby the door may be pushed or pulled to fully 7 open position.
permit of theapplication of a seal to the fastening device for the usual purposes; and if desired, the handle 34 may be sealed in .position, "as by providing it with a slot 42, which registers with a slot 43 on an extension 44 provided on the member 37 and olfset relative to the door-j amb 8, in whichreg istering slots a seal may be fastened.
'Itwill furthermore be understood that p The registering openings 12, 14, 27 and 28.
when the shaft 31 :is rotated. back to the'por sition'represented in ig. 1 after the door has been opened, the catch device18 under the action of'the spring 29 is .tilted rearwardly at its shouldered end 25 and thus position the catchwill automatically interlock with the keeper7.
The securing means illustratedin Figs. 5 and 6 aresubstantially ofthe'same conwhen-the door 15is again moved to closed struction asithose illustrated in the preced} ingfigures- The keeper of this construction, representedat 45,is provided with a shoul dered portion 46 and'plate section. 47 'COI'i responding in general to the shouldered pore tion 11 and the plate section 12,0fthe pre cedingjfigures excepting that the plate 47' instead of-containing twoopenings contains a single open1ng48. In barn structures the doorjambs are not as a rule forwardly off:

Pat Buchanan: End of the line for the welfare state?
But what it did say is vindication of what conservatives have preached since Barry Goldwater stood in the pulpit 50 years ago:
The CBO has just given us a statistical measure of that truth.
The Obamacare subsidies, it said, will cause some to quit work, others to cut back on the hours they work, and others to hold off going to work, so as not to lose the benefits.
The CBO has put a number on what everyone knows to be true: If people don't have to work to provide the needs of their daily lives, some will drop out and become permanent charges on the public purse, deadbeats.
This used to be called common sense. Growing up, we all knew or read that those who inherited great wealth often ended up never holding a "real job" and spent their days in a life of self-indulgence.
If Obamacare alone will cost the equivalent of 2.5 million lost jobs to the U.S. economy, what is the impact of our entire welfare state on the vitality and dynamism of the U.S. labor force?
"Government spent $916 billion on these programs in 2012 alone, and roughly 100 million Americans received aid from at least one of them, at an average cost of $9,000 per recipient. (That figure doesn't include Security or Medicare.)
Yet, if we judge the Great Society by its goal, providing the poor with their basic family needs so they can go out into the marketplace and find jobs and join their fellow Americans, it has been, writes Rector, "a catastrophe."
And by providing for all the needs that the father used to provide for his family, the Great Society has helped make fathers superfluous. We have created a system where a teenage girl who becomes pregnant can have all her basic needs met by government.
And that record illegitimacy rate is directly tied to the drug use rate, the dropout rate, the crime rate and the incarceration rate.
Monday's New York Times reveals a relevant and startling fact.
What is happening in America is that the vast cohort of working men and women, immigrants, illegal and legal, who have come in recent decades, 30 to 40 million, have displaced, have dispossessed, the native-born.
Perhaps T. S. Eliot was right:

Atlanta Braves Rumors
Latest On Mariners' Pursuit Of Righty Outfield Bat
2:57pm: Seattle is interested in Upton but intends to take a look at free agent Nelson Cruz first, according to a tweet from Bob Nightengale of USA Today.
11:51am: The Mariners, as expected, are pursuing several trade possibilities in their efforts to find a right-handed-hitting corner outfield bat, Jon Morosi of FOX Sports reports on Twitter. Seattle has long been expected to try to fill its outfield void with a righty power bat, and it appears that is where the team is focused.
Seattle's front office has had talks on players such as Matt Kemp of the Dodgers, Yoenis Cespedes of the Red Sox, and Justin Upton of the Braves. Obviously, each of those options would represent a major addition of a premier source of pop, though their contractual situations are notably different. The latter two are playing out their final year of control at fairly reasonable prices, while Kemp is owed $21MM next year and another $86MM over the four seasons that follow.
The Mariners remain one of the more intriguing teams to watch on the trade market, both because of their aggressive stance and stockpile of interesting talent. Seattle has Brad Miller and Chris Taylor potentially available up the middle, though the team may be more inclined to hold if it does not have an attractive upgrade in mind. The club also possesses interesting, MLB-ready arms like Taijuan Walker and James Paxton, each of whom would hold broad appeal.

Yasmany Tomas Rumors: Monday
Late last week, the Padres and Braves were rumored to be emerging as the favorites for Yasmany Tomas, and on Sunday it was reported that he's received offers from the Braves, Giants and Padres with the Mariners, Phillies and Diamondbacks still lurking on the periphery of his market. We'll keep track of Monday's Tomas reports in this post…
- Though Peter Gammons tweeted over the weekend that the Braves have made an offer, David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution was told that no offer has been extended (Twitter link). This may be a case of semantics, as Atlanta could have made its comfort level known without technically extending a formal offer.
- Jon Heyman of CBS Sports writes that the Braves are traveling to the Dominican Republic to meet with Tomas again today. He adds that the Padres "just made a big push" for Tomas as well, and feels the Giants' interest will increase with Pablo Sandoval likely heading to Boston today. (Sandoval's agents this morning said that no decision has been made, but one will be reached today. Most believe Boston to be the destination.)

Non-Tender Candidate: Kris Medlen
This year, teams have until 11:59 ET on December 2 to tender contracts to their arbitration-eligible players. About 40 players are non-tender candidates, per MLBTR's Tim Dierkes. Included on the list is injured Braves starting pitcher Kris Medlen.
Medlen, 29, earned $5.8MM through arbitration last season. He's likely to earn a similar amount next season and no less than $4.64MM after missing the entire 2014 season due to his second Tommy John surgery. Based only on his statistics – a career 2.95 ERA, 7.62 K/9, and 2.15 BB/9 in 512 2/3 innings – he appears to be bargain. He's been flexible about his role, with 61 starts and 89 relief appearances to his name. Return from major injury always comes with risk, especially for players who have undergone multiple Tommy John procedures. With only one more season of club control, the budget-conscious Braves may opt to cut ties with Medlen.
Jon Roegele and Jeff Zimmerman of the Hardball Times recently researched Tommy John surgeries in separate articles. Pitchers usually see an increase in their walk rate, decrease in strikeouts, and allow more runs in their first year back from the injury. Zimmerman cites the American Journal of Sports Medicine as saying, "83% of the pitchers they looked at made it back to the majors after surgery and 97% were at least able to pitch in a minor-league game after the surgery." Roegele found that 28-to-29-year-old pitchers (sample size 73) took an average of 16.9 months to return from the surgery. Only 71% of pitchers in the cohort returned to big league action. Roegele does note some sample size issues, but it's safe to say Medlen is bordering on the danger zone where age begins to correlate with poorer outcomes.
The average recovery time is skewed by players who suffer extended setbacks – like Diamondbacks pitcher Daniel Hudson. Even so, there is a plausible chance Medlen won't be ready to compete until next July – 16 months from his surgery on March 18. An efficent recovery of 13 months still has him missing the early part of the season. A more financially endowed club may feel inclined to hope for the best outcome, but the Braves may have to be more pragmatic with a possible $5.8MM investment.
Reportedly, Atlanta's preferred option is to re-sign Medlen at a lower rate, possibly with performance bonuses. Last offseason, the club inked Gavin Floyd to a one-year, $4MM deal with $4.5MM in possible bonuses. Floyd was also coming off Tommy John surgery and was expected to miss the beginning of the season. He made his Braves debut in May, but landed back on the disabled list in June after fracturing a bone near his elbow.
The experience with Floyd may serve as both a benchmark for expected contract and a cautionary tale. Floyd has a career 4.40 ERA and 4.36 FIP, so his performance has been substantially worse than Medlen's. However, Floyd was relatively durable prior to his injury, whereas Medlen has a history of problems. Another relevant anecdote is that of Andrew Miller. The Red Sox non-tendered and re-signed him prior to last season. Atlanta may wish to try the same tactic, although it will be a risky move if their goal is to retain him.
On the open market, I foresee a one-year, $5MM guarantee with performance bonuses. Mutual options are not uncommon with injured or injury prone players. With a mid-season return uncertain, a club option could prove attractive to teams hoping to get more than a couple months of production.
The injury complicates any potential trades. Obviously, the Braves cannot expect a substantial return – Medlen wouldn't be a non-tender candidate if they could. Trades involving injured players are rare, so Braves fans shouldn't expect a notable prospect in return if a deal is reached.
Medlen, who is represented by Wasserman Media Group, seemingly fits with any club in need of rotation depth and upside. Since that describes the Braves, they could be motivated to bite the bullet and tender a contract. While half of the teams in the league could serve as possible landing spots, a few suitable playoff contenders include the Angels and Dodgers. Both clubs could use rotation depth with the flexibility to work out of the bullpen.

MLB.com's Anthony Castrovince names the ten players most likely to be traded this offseason and the Braves' Justin Upton tops the list. Castrovince feels the Braves could obtain a similar, if not better, return than they received for Jason Heyward because Upton's powerful bat has tremendous value.
Here are the latest notes from around baseball:
- Miguel Montero placed tenth on Castrovince's list and Buster Olney of ESPN.com (on Twitter) wonders if the hiring of Henry Blanco will create traction for the Cubs' interest in the Diamondbacks' catcher, who was a Blanco pupil in 2014. The D'Backs have reportedly spoken with the Cubs, Dodgers, and White Sox about Montero.
- With Jose Molina gone, the Rays are working to add a backup to Ryan Hanigan, either via trade or signing. They'd like a catcher with more experience than Curt Casali and, preferably, options, writes Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times.
- More from Topkin who reports, in addition to an expected trade of Matt Joyce and/or David DeJesus, the Rays may be looking to deal from depth in reserve infielders and relievers. He identifies Logan Forsythe and Sean Rodriguez as infield trade possibilities and Brandon Gomes as a bullpen arm who could be moved.
- It may not be "sexy," but the Red Sox's pursuit of Pablo Sandoval makes perfect sense, writes Scott Lauber of the Boston Herald. The Red Sox appear to be one of the finalists for Sandoval, alongside the Padres and incumbent Giants.
- Torii Hunter told Charley Walters of the Pioneer Press he favors the Twins among the teams with which he is considering signing. "(Twins General Manager) Terry Ryan and I have talked several times, and there's definitely a common interest there, for sure," the veteran said. Ten teams reportedly have interest in Hunter.
- The Pirates could re-allocate the resources set aside for Russell Martin to pursue rotation and bullpen help, a first baseman, and/or sign some of their young core to extensions, according to Travis Sawchik of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

Yasmany Tomas Rumors: Sunday
We'll keep track of any Yasmany Tomas-related rumors here, with the newest items at the top.
- The Braves' pursuit of Tomas is unrelated to the progress of any trades involving Justin Upton or Evan Gattis, David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal Constitution tweets. The Braves feel comfortable that they can get good value for Upton or Gattis whether or not they sign Tomas.
- The Braves, Padres and Giants have extended offers to Tomas, with the Mariners, Phillies and Diamondbacks still lingering as possibilities, Peter Gammons tweets. That all makes sense — a report late last week indicated that the Braves and Padres were the favorites to sign Tomas, and another indicated that the Giants would turn their attention to Tomas if Pablo Sandoval were to leave for another team.

Rangers Notes: Upton, Andrus, Gallo, Alfaro
Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports has the latest on the Rangers (all Twitter links):
- The Rangers have spoken to the Braves about Justin Upton, echoing a recent report by the New York Post's Joel Sherman, but the current focus for Texas is pitching.
- The Rangers are willing to deal any of their shortstops, but Elvis Andrus is the least likely to be moved because the team believes 2015 will be a big season for the 26-year-old.
- The Rangers are open to trading their better prospects rather than spend big money on free agents. Rosenthal, however, notes Joey Gallo and Jorge Alfaro (the club's top two prospects, per MLB.com) are considered untouchable.

Braves Release Venters, Designate Pena
FRIDAY: Atlanta has released Venters, per the MLB.com transactions page.
WEDNESDAY: The Braves have designated left-hander Jonny Venters and infielder Ramiro Pena for assignment, according to the team's transactions page. Additionally, the team has added Brandon Cunniff, Yean Carlos Gil, Kyle Kubitza, Williams Perez, Mauricio Cabrera and top prospect Jose Peraza to the 40-man roster to protect them from the Rule 5 Draft.
The 29-year-old Venters was an elite setup man with Atlanta from 2010-12 but underwent Tommy John surgery — the second of his career — that kept him out for all of the 2013 season. Venters rehabbed the injury through August of this season before learning that he had re-torn the ligament. In September, MLB.com's Mark Bowman reported that Venters would undergo a third Tommy John and attempt to make a comeback. Venters has a 2.23 ERA in three career seasons to go along with an average of 10.1 strikeouts and 4.3 walks per nine innings pitched.
Pena, 29, batted .245/.304/.347 in 165 plate appearances for the Braves this season — a decline from the .278/.330/.443 line he posted in 107 PA the previous year. Pena has more than four years of big league service as a utility player with the Yankees and Braves. He's a career .244/.288/.330 hitter in 610 PAs at the big league level.
Both Venters and Pena were arbitration eligible. Venters would have earned either the same $1.6MM he made in 2014 or slightly less, had he gone through arb, while MLBTR contributor Matt Swartz projected Pena to earn $900K.

Minor Moves: Satin, Kensing, Romak, Orioles, Billings, Avery
Here are today's minor moves from around the league…
- A number of additional minor league signings have been reported on the MLB.com transactions page. Among the more notable moves: The Reds added first baseman Josh Satin along with second baseman Ivan De Jesus. Righty Logan Kensing and shortstop Juan Diaz have agreed to terms with the White Sox. And five catchers are off the board: Griff Erickson (Padres), Koyie Hill (Phillies), Sebastian Valle and Miguel Perez (Pirates), and Guillermo Quiroz (Giants).
- Other signings, via MLB.com: righty Caleb Clay and outfielder Nick Buss (Diamondbacks); lefties Ryan Verdugo and Jim Fuller (Athletics); third baseman Jefry Marte (Tigers); righty Daniel Turpen, third baseman Heiker Meneses, and shortstop Argenis Diaz (Twins); righty Bryce Stowell and first baseman Allan Dykstra (Rays); first baseman Travis Mattair and righties Justin Jackson, Jairo Heredia, and Jake Brigham (Braves); outfielder Javier Herrera (Giants); righty Leuris Gomez (Rockies); righty Michael Lee (Blue Jays); third baseman Jonathan Galvez (Yankees); righty Paul Clemens (Phillies).
Earlier Updates
- The D'Backs have agreed to terms on a minor league deal and a Spring Training invite with infielder/outfielder Jamie Romak, MLBTR's Tim Dierkes tweeted today. The 29-year-old Romak, a client of Taurus Sports' David Sloane, made his big league debut with the Dodgers in 2014 and collected his first hit in the Majors. The former fourth-rounder is a lifetime .258/.324/.474 hitter at Triple-A.
- The Orioles announced the signings of infielder Paul Janish, right-hander Terry Doyle and outfielder Quincy Latimore to minor league contracts and invitations to big league Spring Training. SB Nation's Chris Cotillo was the first to tweet Janish's agreement, and Roch Kubatko of MASNsports.com had previously reported that the team was working on a deal with him. Janish is the only one of the bunch that comes with MLB experience; the 32-year-old defensive specialist is a career .214/.284/.288 hitter in 1206 plate appearances between the Reds and Braves.
- The Nationals announced that they have signed right-hander Bruce Billings to a minor league contract with an invite to Major League Spring Training. The 29-year-old Billings pitched four innings for the Yankees last season and split the season between the Yankees and Dodgers organizations. Overall, the veteran posted a 5.27 ERA with 6. K/9 and 3.3 BB/9 in 95 2/3 innings.
- Outfielder Xavier Avery has inked a minor league deal with the Tigers and will receive a Spring Training invite as well, tweets SB Nation's Chris Cotillo. The 24-year-old Avery spent last season with the Mariners after being acquired from the Orioles in the 2013 Mike Morse trade. Avery hit .275/.344/.413 with 10 homers and 31 steals, appearing at all three outfield spots for Seattle's Triple-A affiliate in 2014.

NL West Notes: Preller, Montero, D'Backs, Anderson, Giants
A pair of rival executives described Padres GM A.J. Preller as "all over the map" when asked by Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports. Preller, Rosenthal writes, is furiously exploring both trade and free agent possibilities to boost his new club's offense. According to Rosenthal, Preller was in contact with the Braves about Jason Heyward prior to their trade with the Cardinals, and he's also called on Jay Bruce and Matt Kemp in addition to showing legitimate interest in Pablo Sandoval. One of Preller's colleagues estimated to Rosenthal that the San Diego GM has had "baseline discussions" on at least 200 players this offseason. Suffice it to say, Padres fans should likely expect some form of significant move in Preller's first offseason at the helm.
Elsewhere in the division…
- Trade talks regarding Miguel Montero have not escalated significantly since Russell Martin came off the board and signed with the Blue Jays, reports the Arizona Republic's Nick Piecoro (the Montero portion comes at the bottom of the article). However, the D'Backs have spoken to the White Sox, Cubs and Dodgers about Montero, who is owed $40MM over the next three seasons.
- MLB.com's Jesse Sanchez tweets that Diamondbacks GM Dave Stewart was recently in the Dominican Republic, and senior vice president of baseball operations De Jon Watson is in Mexico scouting some of the top international teens on the market. The D'Backs are hoping to make waves on the international front soon, he adds.
- The Rockies are still interested in re-signing Brett Anderson to a more team-friendly deal than the $12MM option they declined, tweets the Denver Post's Patrick Saunders. However, the Royals and Astros are interested in adding Anderson under similar circumstances, he adds.
- Giants assistant GM Bobby Evans said on KNBR radio yesterday that his team is very interested in both Yasmany Tomas and Yoan Moncada (via Hank Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle). However, Evans wouldn't commit one way or another when asked if his club had the money to sign both Tomas and Sandoval.

NL East Links: Lester, Stanton, Niese, Mets
Though the Braves met with Jon Lester's camp yesterday, the team did not make a formal offer to the free agent lefty, reports David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (Twitter link). Beyond that, president of baseball operations John Hart told ESPN's Jayson Stark that the possibility of Lester signing in Atlanta is a "long shot," but added that he is keeping all doors open (Twitter link).
Here's more from the NL East…
- In an interview with Bob Nightengale of USA Today, Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria says that the Giancarlo Stanton extension is only the beginning of his team's offseason additions. Loria candidly discusses the team's 2012 fire sale, stating that he knew he was going to get killed for it in the media but simply didn't feel the mix of players the club had acquired was going to work. Loria adds that he's not concerned with what other owners think of the Stanton extension and is putting behind him the days of fire sales as he looks to make winning a "part of the tradition of this baseball club." Loria says he feels that his team will be competitive next season and that come September, the Marlins will not only be competitive, but contending. Nightengale backs up previous reports that the Marlins have indeed made an offer to Adam LaRoche.
- Jon Niese's trade value simply isn't what it used to be, Andy Martino of the New York Daily News hears, despite what the Mets consider to be a team-friendly contract. Niese is owed $7MM in 2015 and $9MM in 2016 with a pair of club options valued at $10MM and $11MM. However, one executive from a somewhat interested team told Martino, "I think they underestimate the impact his injuries have had on perception. It's not a team-friendly contract if he is on the DL." Niese did toss 187 innings in 2014, but he's had shoulder and elbow issues over the past two years.
- The Mets are interested in re-signing left-hander Dana Eveland and right-hander Buddy Carlyle, reports Adam Rubin of ESPNNewYork.com. The Mets cut each reliever loose to avoid arbitration increases but have interest in each journeyman on a lower-cost deal. Both were effective in 2014, though Eveland was sidelined for the final few weeks of the season with an elbow injury.
- Rubin also hears that the Mets will wait out some free agent options at shortstop and could take action later in the offseason if players on whom their currently lukewarm drop their asking prices (Twitter links). He also hears that the Mets would be willing to forfeit their second-round pick to add another qualifying offer free agent if the player was stuck without a contract come January. Of course, the Mets already gave up their first-round pick to sign Michael Cuddyer.

In a spacious studio with hardwood floors, Sun and Moon Yoga?s certified yoga instructors foster fitter bodies and more relaxed minds by leading classes aimed at every level of practitioner. In beginner-level Vinyasa Flow classes, instructors school posing novices on how to achieve deep relaxation through slow poses and controlled breathing as paper sliding windows filter out all but the most introspective natural light. Heated yoga classes prepare patrons for deep stretching by heating muscles and sinews, while Blissful Backs classes aim to limber up stiff spines and build up core stabilizers.
Isabella Samovsky fell in love with a salt lamp. Well, not just the lamp, but also the salt-assisted healing it provided. Her love for the salt lamp and its alternative approach to maintaining health inspired her to create Solay Wellness, a center that offers salt-based products and treatments. The Himalayan salt at Solay is harvested from ancient, mineral-rich seabeds, and can be found in hundreds of fair-trade and organic health, beauty, gourmet, pets, and lifestyle products including salt inhalers, natural rubber yoga maps, and soy candles. Solay Wellness also offers an extensive range of fair trade Himalayan salt crystal lamps with UL dimmer cords, which can be shaped like bowls, pyramids, globes, or salt shakers.
At the center?s private salt room, guests can meditate on lounge chairs as they breathe in the salt?s negative ions, which can help to reenergize the body, purify the skin, reduce stress, and alleviate allergy and asthma symptoms. Guests can also take up Tibetan singing-bowl sessions in rooms lined with ancient Himalayan salt blocks. Tiles and loose salt are also on hand to help stimulate pressure points in feet and give children a place to play. In addition to salt-based treatments, the center also offers reflexology and massage. Parking is available across the street, and a train station is nearby.
At over 100 locations throughout the country, CorePower Yoga (CPY) invites students to creative classes that meld movement, breath, heat, and music into entrancing routines to energize the body and mind. Signature CPY classes are taught by approachable certified yoga instructors who lead students through dynamic, Vinyasa-style flows with demonstration and verbal cues, helping pupils of all experience levels tone core muscles and cultivate balance. CPY also offers teacher training and lifestyle programs to empower students to become yoga instructors or to just advance their individual practice. During construction of all its new studios, CPY strives to use recycled content, install eco-friendly and efficient mechanical systems, and ensure that any waste created doesn't end up in landfills or just piled in Mr. Henderson's garage.
Instructors at North Shore Yoga and therapists at Integrated Healing Center promote holistic well-being with a one-two punch of movement-based classes and salutary bodywork sessions. Owner Sharyn Galindo honed her yogic talents over 10 years of dedicated practice, including occasional sojourns to Mysore, India and Thailand where she studied Ashtanga techniques while accumulating enough frequent-flyer miles to vacation on Jupiter. Under her tutelage, North Shore Yoga instructors emphasize Ashtanga and Vinyasa yoga styles, helping students deepen stretches by heating rooms up to 84 degrees for the majority of sessions. To augment a lifestyle of physical wellness, Integrated Health Center's therapists dole out healing bodywork and alternative treatments, including acupuncture and massage sessions that can help address clients' individual needs by incorporating aromatherapy or organic, herb-infused oils.
"Our brain is designed to realize what we wish, without any minor errors," says Dahn Yoga founder Ilchi Lee. "If you want success, it will create success. If you want happiness or health, it will create them. Anything is possible, as long as negative thoughts and emotions don't interfere."
To make this challenging, yet hopeful, philosophy accessible to all, Lee combined the Eastern concept of chi energy with his own brain-management system, developing a distinctive program that unlocks inner peace and sweeps up brain clutter caused by the daily stress of always having to find Waldo. This focus, shared by Body & Brain Holistic Yoga and The Life Yoga, forms the basis of the studio's classes and consultations. Warm-up yoga maneuvers awaken muscles before 30–40 minutes of breathing, stretching, core practice, and meditation—including a signature brain-wave vibration technique that aims to calibrate mental and physical energies. Cooldown exercises ease the body back into quotidian functionality before a 10-minute teatime invites socialization among participants while bolstering pinkie endurance.
Lisa Faremouth Weber, the founder and owner of Heaven Meets Earth, wanted her studio to be a sacred space where students could come for a regular yoga practice and leave refreshed. That's why her commitment to student health reaches beyond the classes and into the very nontoxic paint that coats the studio's walls. Heaven Meets Earth is one of Evanston's only green yoga studios, featuring sustainable bamboo floors, an eco-boutique, and paper products made out of still-living trees.
Certified instructors lead the studio's workshops, teacher-training, meditation classes. They teach students to control their breath and build strength during Sacred Vinyasa classes, and also branch out into Pilates and dance-fitness classes. Teen, child, and family classes instill a sense of peace and focus in the light-filled studio, which features a wall of inspirational quotes.

Churchill launches first pet insurance ad
Churchill, the insurance brand, is uniting its nodding dog brand ambassador with fellow canines and actor Martin Clunes in its debut ad for its pet insurance product.
The ad, created by WCRS, features real dogs travelling from all over the country, overcoming a series of obstacles, to thank the Churchill mascot for offering multi-pet insurance by giving him bones. The ad also features actor Clunes.
The creative directors were Jo Moore and Simon Robinson and the director was Dominic Brigstocke, while the production company was Tomboy.
The ad for the insurer, which is part of the Direct Line group owned by RBS, debuted last night (Monday).
Simultaneously Churchill also rolled out another ad for its home insurance. The spot, 'Lawnmower', sees Churchill and Martin at home in the garden on a lazy summer's day.
Churchill creates 'Lawn Art' as a way of sharing the new home insurance offer with Clunes. Mediacom handled the media.
Churchill, which started out as a motor insurer, expanded into pet insurance in 1997 in the same year it moved into household insurance.
It signed up Martin Clunes to appear in its advertising in December. Previously Churchill has appeared with celebrities including Rolf Harris, Roy Walker, Melanie Sykes and Ricky Hatton.
Last month Marketing revealed Direct Line Group chief marketing officer Rick Vlemmiks was leaving the RBS-owned insurance group after just five months in the role.

All around the world, pharmaceutical researchers and patients are united by a huge mission: the search for powerful treatments capable of prolonging life. Bayer experts are therefore cooperating with top scientists from around the globe.
Canola seed pods contain a valuable freight. However, if the seed pods open prematurely in the field, many of the seeds end up on the ground. Researchers at Bayer CropScience have now developed a variety of canola with especially robust seed pods.
Materials engineers develop many of their ideas initially for the aviation industry, but in doing so also stimulate advancements in numerous other sectors, such as automotive. Premium materials from Bayer MaterialScience provide for greater efficiency in these applications.
The cells in the bodies of humans and animals communicate with each other by means of electrical and chemical signals. The most important elements in the information cascade are ion channels. These protein molecules are therefore potential targets for new drug products, but also for insecticides and parasiticides.
Materials experts from Bayer MaterialScience have developed an extremely robust wall coating that makes it easier to combat harmful hospital germs and bacteria. more
One of the winners of this year's Nobel Prize for Chemistry is the German researcher Stefan Hell. In 2011 he received the Hansen Family Award from the Bayer Foundation.
"Without science – that is to say, without research and development – we will not be able to meet the challenges currently facing our planet."

Given a real strictly Hurwitz polynomialH_{n}(s) = a_{0}prod_{upsilon = 1}^{n} (s - s_{upsilon}), n = 3, 4, cdots ,the standard method of calculating the continued fraction expansion of{[odd H_{n}(s)]/ [even H_{n}(s)]}^{pm 1}about its pole at infinity uses Routh's scheme or Hurwitz's determinantsDelta_{r}, r = 1, 2, cdots , n, in the coefficients ofH_{n}(s)(on the equivalence of the two, see [2]). In filter theory, cases are often encountered where knowledge of the zeros ofH_{n}(s)precedes that of its coefficients, and one would then prefer to have formulas for the coefficients in the above continued fraction expansion directly in terms of the former rather than the latter. This is achieved by expressingDelta_{r}as bialternants in the zeros ofH_{n}(s)and readsDelta_{r} = (-)^{r(r+1)/2} a_{0}^{r}A(0, 1, cdots , n - r - 1, n - r + 1, cdots , n + r - 1)/A(0, 1, cdots , n - 1), where the alternant in the denominator is the Vandermonde ins_{1}, s_{2}, cdots , s_{n}, whereas the alternant in the numerator is obtained from it on replacing the exponents0, 1, cdots , n - 1by0, 1, cdots, n - r - 1, n - r + 1, cdots , n + r - 1. Examples includeH_{n}(s) = prod_{upsilon = 1}^{n} [s - j exp (2 upsilon - 1)j pi /2n]andH_{n}(s) = (s + 1)^{n}.

Wall Painting Techniques
January 29, 2014
To create a look of texture without the use of expensive paints or the use of a professional painter there are several techniques, applications and products to use in wall painting. Use this guide to matching your wall painting techniques with your home accessories and decor.
Faux Plaster
Creating the look of aged plaster is simple and less messy than using a joint compound blaster. To do this project you will need tissue paper-the kind you get in the gift wrapping section-enough latex satin paint to cover the walls, masking tape, drop cloths, a two inch brush and nap roller, disposable paint trays, and acrylic glazing. Tape off all baseboard and crown molding as well as door and window trim. After removing all furniture's from the area, wipe down walls with mild soap and water and dry with clean soft cloth.

The Basic Components of Modern Bathroom Designs
January 21, 2014
Incorporating a modern bathroom design will give you a more spacious and functional bathroom. Accessories and decors are kept minimal to keep the bathroom clean and clutter-free. This helps enhance the visual space in the room and can also help make a small bathroom appear larger. Enhancing the visual space in the room and removing clutter also provides a more relaxing environment than a traditional bathroom overloaded with furniture and unnecessary things. A bathroom doesn't need a lot of accessories, furniture and decors to make it functional and stylish. You can create an elegant bathroom with just a few well-chosen bathroom furniture, fixtures and accessories. Continue Reading
Flower Garden Layouts
November 14, 2013
The home flower garden is one of the best ways to spruce up your home and to lend it a bit of "curb appeal" It is used by those who dress up homes for sale. The flower garden layouts that you use will depend a great deal on the size of your yard, and how much room you can dedicate to flowers or flowering herbs. It's not common sense of course to cover the lawn with errant blooms; however settling them into niches or small areas that will enhance the overall look of your home is smart thinking. Each small flower can be part of the overall look that you are trying to achieve if planned out well.
Your flower garden, depending on the size of your yard and the style of your home, may not only enhance the home atmosphere, Continue Reading

The Best Places to Sell Your Stuff!
June 6, 2014
We live in a day and age where practically everything we buy or own quickly becomes "old" to us, or we decide it's time to upgrade within a relatively short time from acquiring something. We are constantly bombarded by design innovations and technological advancements which promise to outperform and out satisfy their predecessors, and this reality is not likely to change anytime soon. And as most people are not in possession of unlimited funds, the average Joe must make an effort to resell a good portion of items, some of which are so expensive that they will need to be sold in order to free up the cash to be upgraded.
Consignment Shops
There are numerous ways in which you can dispose of your stuff for cash: In just about every major shopping area you will find at least one consignment shop. Some simply pay sellers outright, based on what they believe they can sell the items for and still make a profit. Others only pay the sellers once the items have been sold. You generally won't net as much profit from selling your things via consignment shops. The advantages are that you don't have to deal with the things after you drop them off, and they will receive a greater amount of exposure when on display in a store.
The Classified Ads
The classified ads are a kind of marketplace or hub of all sorts of activity, and they reach greater numbers of potential buyers than any other form of advertising. If your ad is worded properly and your description is good, the only other thing remaining is a fair price to guarantee that the classified ads will produce a buyer for you. And chances are, if you are looking to upgrade something,(anything,) you will find a superior deal on one right within the classified ads, instead of having to pay retail.
Yard Sales
Yard sales require a lot of time, effort and even a little expense. There are people who really enjoy the whole ambiance of yard sales, and they don't mind dedicating the better portion of a Saturday to the event. For others, they come away saying they won't do it again, as the average items offered for purchase through a yard sale cumulatively just don't bring enough profit to pay for all the trouble involved. If you, on the other hand, have nothing to do on a Saturday and you've been cleaning out closets, the attic and the garage, a yard sale could finance a really nice dinner for two at an upscale, trendy restaurant.
For the average person, it's always nice to clear out the clutter, just as it is to get rid of old things in order to upgrade to more recent innovations. If you are short on time, and you want to clearly reach the largest market for selling your goods, it's the Classifieds all the way!

Start the process of winterizing your home in the fall, before winter hits. Adhesive products such as weatherstripping will adhere much better while the weather is still dry and it will be easier for you to insulate your pipes before freezing temperatures.
You want to make sure that you call and check up to see any contractors or companies you do work with to make sure they're insured. It's not uncommon for some contracting companies to flash outdated insurance paperwork at customers in the hopes that customers won't notice the company is no longer insured.
Before you begin a home improvement venture, get rid of junk you no longer use. Aside from removing excess debris, you'll have more room to work. Life is just easier when you have less stuff.
One of the most popular types of decks for homeowners nowadays is vinyl. A vinyl deck is easily cleaned and maintained, although it must be washed two times per year. Fall and spring are both good seasons to give your vinyl deck a sweep.
Flooring should be replaced. Replacing your old floors can be a costly undertaking, but the payoff in appearance and added value is more than enough to justify the decision. Replace carpet and linoleum with hardwood or tile, and you can increase the value of your home.
Avoid contractors who offer bonuses for cash payments, as they are involved in illegal acts. Paying with cash is risky. If you must pay with cash you can protect yourself by getting a signed copy of the contract prior to any work or payment and of course, get a written receipt for any cash you do give them.
If you are in a rush to get home improvement work done, you should be prepared for the high costs involved. Communicating with your contractor will make them more likely to work harder on your home. As long as you are willing to pay more, they will be willing to do the work. You will usually always pay a higher price for a job you want rushed.
We all have to do some type of home improvement project at some point in our lives. Whether we are doing it for fun, or added value, the end result motivates us all. No matter if you are doing it to increase value or to look good, you can enjoy yourself with home improvement.
