Janssen underwent an MRI on Monday, which revealed the extend of the injury. Janssen previously told reporters he was unsure how long this injury would sideline him for. He said, via The Washington Post, that the injury is "not a major concern."
While Janssen should be OK with rest and standard treatment, his status for the start of the season is still up in the air.

Den Dekker adds depth to a Nationals position group that could begin the season without both Denard Span and Jayson Werth. In 80 career major-league games, den Dekker has posted a .238/.325/.310 slash line.
Den Dekker told ESPN that when he was called into the Mets' office he figured he was being sent to the minors. With Washington, he'll have an early shot at playing time.
Blevins spent just one season with the Nationals in 2014 and went 2-3 with a 4.87 ERA in 57.1 innings pitched.

"Especially [with] Colome," Cash said. "His wasn't an arm issue. Just putting weight back on. He just had a two-week delay there. But from all reports, when you ask them how's it going, there hasn't been anything given why we wouldn't be optimistic."
Smyly threw a bullpen session Sunday and is scheduled to face hitters in a batting-practice session Wednesday. After following that with another batting-practice session, he could progress to minor-league games and would need to get stretched out and ready for the regular season.
"Depending on need," Cash said. "If he got up to 75 pitches, does that help us? Or do we want to build him up to 105? We'd have to talk to him about that."
Cash added that there's a chance Smyly could rejoin the rotation by the end of April.
Colome threw a 40-pitch bullpen session Saturday and is set to throw 50 pitches Tuesday. Cobb played catch Monday for the second time and said all went well.

Denorfia has a sore left hamstring he's recovering from and is expected to participate in a minor-league game mid-week. However, there's still a chance he's not ready to be with the Cubs when the regular season starts.
"I don't like to speculate on things like that," Denorfia said, via MLB.com. "When you're rehabbing anything can happen. As long as everything progresses the way it should, [I should be ready] sometime around that time. The goal is to be ready by then."

Montero retired the first nine batters he faced before Dee Gordon led off the fourth inning with a double. Michael Morse also had a two-out single in the inning, but those were the only hits Montero would allow.
He didn't issue a walk and struck out six. Montero is 2-0 with a 2.40 ERA through four spring outings. Although, in his two starts, he has allowed just one run on five hits in 10 innings.

Stayed here to visit Santa,s winter wonderland with the kids. Excellent location ( just off the motorway). Really enjoyed the effort made with the lights for Christmas. Staff very friendly. Only critisism I would have is that breakfast is not included in price and the food prices are alittle bit excessive. Other than that a good place to stay and extremely clean with rooms serviced everyday and beds changed also. Would be happy to stay again.

Lady Eagles sweep Lady Pioneers
The last six batters in the Batesville Lady Pioneer batting order went zero for 32 as the Greene County Tech Lady Eagles swept a 5A-East District softball doubleheader, winning 1-0 and 9-2 at North Complex on Tuesday.
With that, the Lady Eagles kept their hopes alive for a Class 5A State Tournament berth, and they handed the Lady Pioneers their sixth straight exclusion from postseason play.
With a record of 2-6 in district play, the Lady Eagles still have a chance of finishing in the top four in the district standings — the qualifying standard for the state tournament.
Batesville cager signs with Central Baptist
The tryout convinced Shelby Winkle and Central Baptist College Coach Lyle Middleton.
"I just felt like CBC was a good fit for me," Winkle said about her decision to sign with the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics school in Conway. "I just felt it was what I needed."
The Batesville High School senior and all-state basketball player signed with CBC in a ceremony at BHS on Monday.
Middleton said he knew a little about Winkle before the tryout.
Freed-Hardeman sweeps Lyon in softball twinbill
Despite coming from behind on two different occasions, the Lyon softball team fell short in the nightcap of a doubleheader sweep by Freed-Hardeman Tuesday afternoon at House Field.
After managing just one hit in the opener, and losing 8-0 in five innings, the Scots battled in game two. However, a 4-run fifth was too much for the Scots as they lost to the Lady Lions 12-9.
Spicer wins at Speedy's
NEWPORT — Gary Spicer edged Don Holcomb to win the street division Sunday at Speedy's Raceway.
Steve Simpson was third in the class.
Joe Williams took the top spot in the foot brake class with Ross Williams and Larry Romine in tow.
John Taylor was quicker than Bobby Hooker in the super pro class. Shannon White finished third.
Brian Hill, Cory Andrews and Samantha Clay finished 1-2-3 in the junior dragster competition.
Joey Bogard was fastest in the outlaw street bike class.
Beeler sets school record in Lady Southerners' win
SOUTHSIDE — Krysta Beeler made history here Monday afternoon when she hit a 2-run home run in the fourth inning of an 8-5 nonconference win over the Highland Lady Rebels.
Beeler's homer was her sixth of the season, breaking the school record set by Kayla Richardson.
Highland's four runs in the top of the fourth inning were answered in the bottom half and the Lady Southerners sprinkled on enough throughout the game to collect the victory.
Valley View blazes Southside
SOUTHSIDE — Perennial powerhouse Valley View swept Southside in Class 4A-3 District soccer matches here Monday.
The Lady Blazers rolled to a 9-1 decision and the Blazers went back to Jonesboro with a 4-1 victory after being tied 1-1 at the break.
"It was one of better games we've played this year," Southside Coach Jason Weaver said. "We had a couple of defensive breakdowns in the second half."
BJHS track teams sweep titles in Bald Knob
BALD KNOB — Batesville swept the team titles in a junior high track meet here Friday, and Batesville and Southside athletes took high point honors.
Led by Ronisha Hughes' 40 points, the Junior Lady Pioneers totaled 233 points and finished 55 points ahead of their hosts, the second-place Bald Knob Junior Lady Bulldogs.
The Junior Pioneers piled up 269 points and finished 143 points ahead of the second-place Southside Junior Southerners. Southside's Cody Goodman led the individual point totals with 45.
BHS soccer teams blank Nettleton, continue streaks
JONESBORO — Batesville's soccer teams recorded two more shutouts here Monday and remained unbeaten in the 5A-East District.
The Lady Pioneers edged the Nettleton Lady Raiders 1-0 and improved to 5-0 in the district and 10-2 overall.
The Pioneers thumped the Raiders 5-0, also improving to 5-0. The Pioneers are 10-1-1 overall.
The Lady Pioneers got some help on the game's only scored.
Midland hires coach, begins move to add football to curriculum
PLEASANT PLAINS — Midland took a step Monday night toward joining the area schools who have added football to their athletic program when they hired Tim Pugh as head football coach and athletic director.
The hiring of Pugh, a native of West Virginia and a graduate of Harding University, received school board approval in a meeting Monday Night, Midland Superintendent Dean Stanley said this morning.
Batesville, Tech split again
The Batesville Pioneers and Greene County Tech Eagles played another of their 5A-East District baseball dandies Tuesday night at the North Complex, and the outcome was the same it's been in three of the last four seasons.
Both teams left the park with a win, a loss and mixed feelings. Batesville won the opener 3-2. Tech took the nightcap 6-4.
Beyond those similarities, forget it. You would be hard pressed to find a doubleheader with more unusual happenings.
Conway's Bre'Anna Hobbs signs with Lyon basketball
Bre'Anna Hobbs is the newest addition to the Lyon College women's basketball roster, the college announced.
Hobbs, a native of Conway, recently signed a national letter of intent to play for the Scots. She averaged just over eight points and seven rebounds a game this past season at Conway High School. She played a key role in the team's run to the state tournament this past season.
It was the second straight year Hobbs made a tournament appearance, leading Conway Christian to the tournament in her junior season.
Southerners win in close one, big against Cavemen
SOUTHSIDE — After winning a close one, the Southside Southerners finished off their 4A-2 District baseball doubleheader with Cave City in another fashion.
The Southerners won the opener 6-5 when Jared Dahl scored in the bottom of the seventh inning. The Southerners won the nightcap 10-3 as Tyler Goad pitched a 4-hitter and Dahl hit three for four, including a 2-run homer.
In the opener, Dalton Littleton hit two doubles, Dahl added a 2-run double and Jace Dunegan doubled for Southside. Dahl pitched the first six innings. Colby Sutton relieved and got the win.

The apartment was easy to access, quiet and comfortable. A real bargain.
Josh & Jamie's apartment was clean and comfortable, especially master bed! And thank you for accepting our reservation with only one day notice! It made our long drive with the kids very easy!
Great and clean home with everything we needed. Would stay again! Thanks
Wonderful clean home with backyard for dog. Fully furnished with all amenities. Highly recommended!
Taos is a GREAT town! We (my 4 & 6 year old daughters and I) stayed at Jamie's place for 1 night while we were in town for the wool festival.
Jamie's place is kid friendly, clean and close to skiing, shopping, etc. We had a last minute addition of another friend and her daughter to the trip and Jamie was not just flexible but even inviting. We really appreciated her kindness.
A diamond in the rough (the house is being re-done on the outside), the inside is filled with excellent amenities (PERFECT kitchen with breakfast bar, dishwasher, fridge, washer/dryer, and mellow fish friends to keep you company). SUPER comfy beds and pillows in the two bedrooms (one king and one queen), two futons in the family room (one sleeps two and the other sleeps one). Our kids really enjoyed having games to play with and of course a sizable TV to watch (complete with DVD player) ;-).
We had a great time at Jamie's place and I can totally see my family returning for another taste of Taos in the future as we move into ski season.
Jamie and her friend Tara were very friendly and considerate guests. They communicated well in the booking process and we would definitely recommend them as guests.
Graeme and Julie
Jamie and Josh were lovely people, and I would be happy to have them again.
Jamie was just super great people! They were so comfortable to be around and were very polite and respectful and communicative. Just a really nice couple and a treat for any host. Aloha Victoria
Jamie was my college roommate and we have known each other for over 10 years! Jamie has a super positive and upbeat spirit and so everywhere she lives is filled with that same energy. I have visited Jamie several times while she has lived in Taos and just this past year stayed in this sweet home she has is now the proud owner of!! As a first time home owner Jamie has poured love and dedication into creating a comfortable, clean and enjoyable living space. Taos is a great place to visit, so rich with native culture and so many outdoor activities from skiing to hiking to relaxing in the nearby Ojo Caliente hot springs. You'll love being out but you'll love coming home too!!

Best whites and pinks?
I want to plant lilies this year. What are your favourite ones from each group? I would like white & pink (light & dark). I'd like to stay away from the striped types if I could. I'm trying to create a cottage garden and I want some lilies to plant with my roses (which are mainly pink). I know the Orientals are fragrant which is what I want, something more spicy than sweet, and I know asiatics aren't but that's ok. So... for the asiatics & orientals which would you recommend? I know there are other types too, ie LA hybrids; are there any others I should not be without? So far Casablanca looks good. Any fragrant(preferably)choice that would compliment my pink/white/purple scheme would be appreciated.
In addition to the LA hybrids there are LO hybrids, which have a tropical fruit smell. Both are only lightly scented which is good for those more sensitive to smell. If a spicy scent is what you want then Oriental and Trumpet lilies are the way to go. They are both summer bloomers, but the trumpet lilies come up a little before the orientals.
There are also some spring species lilies that are scented, such as Lankongense, but since I only planted them this past Fall I can't give a personal report yet. In addition to the species, The Lily Garden sells a number of Lankongense hybrids that are scented and bloom in the spring. Though lighter in scent than the orientals, they would be a good substitute for Asiatics which generally have no scent. Their catalog has a section where they catagorize their lilies by color, longest bloom, and most strongly scented per season.
All of these types of lilies have beautiful pink and white varieties.
My recommendations
Spring - (guessing here)- Lankongense/hybrids. The species is pink with spotting.
Late spring/Early summer - "Elegant Lady" is a beautiful pale pink LO hybrid with an almost pearl like sheen. Also it is not so large and can be placed in front of other flowers
Summer- Lilium Regale is trumpet lily with a white with pink reverse bloom. It is easy to grow with a strong nice scent. Its blooms will turn to face the sun, so plant accordingly.
Mid - Late summer - Siberia is a good alternate white oriental to Casa Blanca. It's blooms are pure white and upfacing (rather than outdacing) and it is heat tolerant (not so important for you - in zone 5).
Stargazer is a very pretty pink and white lily and is easily the most popular oriental lily going. It is readily available from garden centers as potted plants throughout the season and can be bought as spring bulbs from a large number of mailorder companies. (Frankly they're so cheap and convenient potted up - I'd buy them that way)
Late Summer - The species lily Lilium speciosum - rubrum has the same coloring as stargazer but with smaller strongly recurved blooms. It comes up shortly after the orientals (Aug-Sept depending on your zone and garden conditions). There is also a white form, lilium speciosum - alba.
Raptorfan..I think I recognize that handle from the rose forum.
With my roses, I would be looking for lilies that would not clash with the colour scheme, and some of the hybrids out there are a bit vibrant to successfully blend in.
Of the White and pink Orientals that don't clash with my roses:
Lombardia..pink with a touch of yellow at the throat but not enough to not fit in with pinks and purple
Dizzy..big white margin softens the deeper pink centres
Garden Party , and if looking for something pot size, Rodolfo. I like Le Reve which is a soft lav-pink where I grow it in partial shade.
To me, Stargazer might not blend in with my pink roses, but you can pick them up cheap at Home Depot or Rona right now, so the experiment won't be too expensive. Tom Pouce is great, but I wouldn't have it with my pink/white roses as a 'blender'.
While there are plenty of others, those work for me.
Tiara and Willeke Alberti are both Orientals, pale pink (not lavender) with white centers. The best words I can come up with to describe their look are "pristine" and "crystalline".
In my garden, Dizzy is red and white rather than pink and white. It would look great with red roses, but I don't know about pink.
Muscadet is a huge-flowered white Oriental with pale pink center stripes. I think it would be fantastic with pink roses.
I meant to second the suggestion of Siberia, but suggest Casablanca also. Its flowers face down and out and are farther apart than Siberia's, but it thereby makes a much more graceful form. Siberia's flowers are very crowded together. I like both for different purposes.
Yes that's me from the rose forum, you have a great memory I haven't posted in some time. :) Thanks for all the suggestions! I didn't take into account about which way the flowers face, that's something to consider. Can I plant anytime soon?
Being a Raptorfan in Kingston, about the same zone as T.O.,
I went out tonite to move a couple of roses while still dormant. In most places, the ground was still frozen below about 4" from the surface...tough digging, and a surprise given the temps over the last week or 2.
I'm giving it another week or 2 of warm weather with rain.

InnoDB: detected cycle in LRU for buffer pool 3, skipping to next buffer pool.

METAIRIE, La. (AP) — From renegotiating his contract to losing weight and trying out a new role, Will Smith has made it clear to the New Orleans Saints that he's willing to be flexible in order to spend his 10th NFL season with his only pro club.
Lighter Smith comfortable in new role with Saints
Still, Smith has to prove this preseason that he can be effective in his switch from a traditional defensive end to an outside linebacker in the Saints' new 3-4 defensive alignment under new coordinator Rob Ryan.
"It really hasn't been that hard of a transition," Smith said, adding that one of the biggest adjustments was simply a switch in position coaches from Bill Johnson, who handles linemen, to assistant head coach Joe Vitt, who oversees linebackers. "Overall, I would look at the position as just an extension from defensive end. ... Most of the time, I'm doing the same thing I've always done."
Indeed, his primary role is expected to entail pressuring the quarterback, something he's done well throughout his career.
Yet there are some new responsibilities. In a 3-4 scheme (three linemen, four linebackers) the outside linebackers are sometimes required to cover short passes to running backs and tight ends in the flat when the defense is playing a zone.
That is something Smith has not done much, and a main reason coaches asked him to shed about 10 pounds during the offseason.
"I'm looking, a little — a lot — sleeker. ... Losing the weight helped me a lot," said Smith, who estimates his current weight at 268 pounds. "I have to handle coverages, I have to do linebacker drills, I do a little of special teams, so I do a lot of different things than what I was doing the previous nine years."
Smith also is training on both the left and right sides of the field, whereas before he played only right defensive end in a 4-3 alignment.
"They have me all over the place. Anything I can do to help the team," Smith said. "I am just learning and enjoying it. The defensive scheme is very fun."
So far, both Ryan and coach Sean Payton are complimenting Smith's performance.
"He's been a natural end and now he's playing linebacker, so there's going to be some uncomfortable times," Ryan said. "But I think he's comfortable with it now. I think he's used to it already. ... He's going to be outstanding out there.
"I know he can do it," Ryan added. "He's had that reputation before I ever got here as a tough, hardworking guy and a team player, and that's what he's showing here."
Smith grew up Utica, N.Y., then starred at Ohio state before the Saints selected him in the first round, 18th overall, in the 2004 draft. His combination of power and quickness made him an elite pass-rushing end. He registered 10 1/2 sacks in 2006 and a career-high 13 sacks in 2009, the season the Saints won their only Super Bowl title.

Latest Amphibian Stories
Scientists track amphibian populations because these animals are sensitive to changes in their environment and can serve as "canaries in the coal mine†to give researchers early warnings about pollution or other ecological problems.
In nature, ultraviolet radiation from sunlight is not the amphibian killer scientists once suspected.
The world's most ancient frogs may soon be mined to extinction, if the New Zealand government's plans to open up a conservation area for mining go ahead.
Scientists have unraveled the dynamics of a deadly disease that is wiping out amphibian populations across the globe.
Amphibians—frogs, toads, salamanders, and newts—are disappearing worldwide, but the stream salamanders of the Appalachian Mountains appear to be stable.
Most countries throughout the world participate in the $40-million-per-year culinary trade of frog legs in some way, with 75 percent of frog legs consumed in France, Belgium and the United States.
Amphibians, for years considered a leading indicator of environmental degradation, are not uniquely susceptible to pollution.
A workshop at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in Panama has dramatically improved the ability of conservationists and regulatory agencies to monitor the spread of chytridiomycosis—one of the deadliest frog diseases on Earth.
The world's leading amphibian experts have come together and for the first time identified two major conservation initiatives to protect the amphibians of the world from becoming extinct.
For the first time in nearly 50 years, a population of a nearly extinct frog has been rediscovered in the San Bernardino National Forest's San Jacinto Wilderness.

I'm eagerly awaiting the day when all communication on the internet can be done either via cat pictures or quoting memes
we're getting closer and closer.

Sounds like the average slashdotter. *rimshot*
" an excess of the elements rubidium, lithium and molybdenum will be generated by the hybrid."
Just what we need, a hybrid that makes Lithium
This "Star within a star" thing has been a phenomenon commonly known in Hollywood since the days Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks.
I guess that means an honest politician is not even theoretically possible.
rubidium, lithium and molybdenum
And strontium and silicon and silver and samarium and bismuth, bromine, helium, beryllium and barium. These are the only ones of which the news has come to Harvard--there may be many many but they haven't been discovered.

+ - Solar Power Begins to Shine as Environmental Benefits Pay Off-> 2
Solar photovoltaic generation, known as PV, like wind power before it, is coming into the mainstream — at great environmental benefit.
Based on comparative life-cycle analyses of power sources, "PV electricity contributes 96 percent to 98 percent less greenhouse gases than electricity generated from 100 percent coal and 92 percent to 96 percent less greenhouse gases than the European electricity mix," said Carol Olson, a researcher at the Energy Research Center of the Netherlands.
Photovoltaic generation offers several additional environmental advantages, Ms. Olson said in an interview.
"Compared with electricity from coal, PV electricity over its lifetime uses 86 to 89 percent less water, occupies or transforms over 80 percent less land, presents approximately 95 percent lower toxicity to humans, contributes 92 to 97 percent less to acid rain, and 97 to 98 percent less to marine eutrophication," she said. Eutrophication is the discharge of excess nutrients that causes algal blooms.""

1950 in Afghanistan
|This article does not cite any references or sources. (June 2007)
See also: 1949 in Afghanistan and 1951 in Afghanistan.
January 4, 1950[edit]
The year begins auspiciously by the signature at New Delhi, India, of a treaty of friendship with India. The treaty provided that each signatory should be able to establish trade agencies in the other's territory. The treaty would last for five years in the first instance, and at the end of that period it would be terminable at six months' notice. This friendship with India does not find reflection in Afghanistan's relations with Pakistan. Pakistan feels that Afghanistan is too tolerant of the so-called independent Pashtunistan movement, which has for its aim the creation of a Pashtu-speaking enclave and therefore a new state to be carved out of Pakistan territory. Afghanistan develops closer relations during the year with Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Iran,
September 1950[edit]
Disturbances are caused by an apparent invasion of Pakistan near the Bogra pass. The Afghan government promptly denies that the invaders have comprised Afghan troops. The prime minister of Pakistan, Liaquat Ali Khan, in disclosing that a protest has been sent to Kabul on what he describes as the culminating incident in a number of minor frontier violations, declares that Pakistan is willing to discuss economic and cultural questions of common concern to the two countries. He nevertheless deprecates any action which might disturb the peace of the strategic frontier area.

Editor's Viewpoint - Has Treasury Wine Estates found its map in time?
By Olly Wehring | 20 May 2014
Michael Clarke has started ringing the changes at Treasury Wine Estates
Who'd have thought it? Treasury Wine Estates, a company that, in the recent past, has scrabbled around trying to find someone to buy its wine business, has finally received a takeover offer. And, they've only gone and rejected it.
Strange days indeed.
I grant you, I may be suffering from selective memory here. Treasury's desire to hive off the wine side hails from the days when it was part of beer and wine company Foster's Group. Since the demerger of the two businesses three years ago, Treasury has been going about its business without issuing any come-and-get-me pleas.
There can be little doubt, however, that recent headaches will have prompted Treasury to seriously consider last month's AUD4.70-per-share offer from US private equity firm Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co.
But, today's announcement that it has turned down the offer is a clear vote of confidence from Treasury's board in new CEO Michael Clarke. With a background that includes stints at Coca-Cola Co and Kraft Foods, the South African was brought on-board in February to take a business-focussed approach to turning around the wine company. He has done just that today, when he announced plans to fund a healthy spend on Treasury's brands by taking an axe to its costs.
The rejection of KKR's offer – which represented a 15% premium to Treasury's closing price yesterday – gives Clarke room to manoeuvre, and his most recent plan looks, at very least, like a start down the right road. After all, when your share of voice sees your actual product overshadowed by market 'chatter' and company talk, then something has gone seriously wrong somewhere along the line.
However, what Treasury's and – more importantly – its shareholders will think of any improved offer from KKR will decide how far down Clarke's road the company can expect to travel.

Best show in the 'verse, hands down.
The absolute Best show ever. This was the first Whedon show I watched & now I hope that he never dies. There is no way to describe this show which can possibly explain how Amazing this is. The most superb writing, perfectly cast actors, brilliant characters. It's a Space Western, in the best possible way.
one of my favourite shows of all time. think mashing a western with sci-fi and throwing in dashes of humour, romance, and the usual marks of a great joss whedon classic. watch this entire series before watching the follow up movie, Serenity.
"Firefly" follows the adventures of the crew of Serenity, a somewhat run down space ship. The captain of the ship is Mal Reynolds, who, along with his First Mate Zoe Washburne, fought in a civil war on the side of the Independants (the opposing side was the Alliance). Other members of the crew include Kaylee Frye, the ship's engineer, Inara Serra, a companion, Derrial Brook, a pastor, Jayne Cobb, a mercenary, and Hoban 'Wash' Washburne, Zoe's husband and the ship's pilot. The crew of Serenity are smugglers, and while on a planet searching for jobs, they pick up a traveller named Doctor Simon Tam. It is later revealed that Simon has smuggled his younger sister River on board, and that they are both fugitives hiding from the forces of the Alliance.
"Firefly" is a sci-fi western television show that combines the best aspects of both genres. The show spans only one season, but is continued and ultimately finished in the 2005 film 'Serenity'. "Firefly" is a unique and entertaining show filled with humor and action but punctuated with dark undertones. The characters are all unique and different, and each have their own quirks, flaws, and attitudes. The setting is vast, as the show takes place on different planets and in space itself. The plot is very interesting and keeps viewers enthralled, as each episode is very different, yet each still maintains a certain charm.
Overall, the author of this review highly recommends "Firefly". It is a lovely show, and is suitable for ages thirteen and up due to some scary scenes and that one nude scene.
I enjoyed Firefly better than StarTrek, and I love StarTrek, Like StarTrek it is optimistic about the future of mankind. Great humor and each episode has a message. Wish this show had lasted more than one season.
The Firefly series is awesome. If you have ever wondered what it would be like to fly with smuggler Han Solo in the Millenium Falcon, just watch this series, this is as close of an answer as you will get.
Unfortunately this series was short lived due to several factors: Producers in FOX poor handling (poor promotion, aired out of order, etc.), it was a bit expensive to produce, and did not attract as many viewers as expected (at the time). It was a "late bloomer", a la Breaking Bad, Office Space...
If you are a true Sci Fi genre fanatic, you will love this series.
It is the second highest rated Sci-Fi Series with at least 1000 votes in IMDb: 9.2/10 (141,996 users); just behind an animated series.
Try it, it is a short Series, it was on the air only 1 season, and there is a sequel to the series, a film called Serenity.
I only watched a little bit. Didn't appeal to me. Nothing special. This is the series that precedes the movie, "Serenity", which was good, but definitely not great. I guess my standards are higher than other reviewers. Not worth raving over.
I was very impresses with the series when it was on, and again when I took out here. I wish they had of been able to continue the series as there was so much more they could have done with the story.
Here is hoping for movies to continue with it.
Fans for this show were behind it all the way.
Great fun !! And a reasonably developed sci-fi 'verse', based on the time-honored confict between empire and independence. So wierd that it wasn't picked up for another season !?! It is so much smarter and entertaining than many other series,.. maybe that's why (?). (It must have been badly scheduled and poorly promoted.) P.S. For an additional Firefly fix, be sure to catch the full length feature 'Serenity' ! (5-5-14: 1 ; 5-7: 7)
Joss Whedon an avowed atheist uses this failed series as all his productions to subliminanly project his totally disdain for God and religion. The pastor here is used as a constant foil of the captain, in one scence the captain refuses to let the pastor pray over an evening meal.
Mr. Whedon is also responsible for the Avengers movie, which was indeed entertaining over all but when it comes to the demi-god getting his 'come-uppance' he has the scientist turned Mr. Hyde really bash him good with a final parting shot of 'puny god'.
NoticesAdd a Notice
Other: Some of the coarse language is in Chinese, the show is 99.9% in English. There are little bits of Chinese here and there (hardly noticeable) because 500 years from now Joss Whedon felt that the Americans and Chinese (because of population/world power) would be the reigning superpowers so those would be considered the 2 main languages.
Sexual Content: one of the main characters is a "companion" . There is some partial nudity as well.
Violence: alllllll the time (but usually not gory)
Coarse Language: most is in Chinese but there are occasionally some in English too
