Intentions are often very difficult to know because people with an agenda usually say what they do not mean in order to mislead other people for whatever real purposes they have in their minds.
What cannot be hidden for long are the consequences of what they do and the accumulating evidences resulting from those consequences and from their deeds.
It is clear that the Chinese governments, both central and local, are not behind the Tibetan Chinese self-immolations. Nobody has made such an allegation because it is beyond any reasonable doubt that the Chinese governments are working very hard to stop them.
So who are behind these self-immolations and what are the probable motivations?
The Tibetan Chinese secessionists in India and elsewhere and their foreign supporters, both ethnic Tibetans and others, allege that these self-immolations are "protests against Chinese rule". The allegation is patently false as the Tibetans, being an ethnic minority in China, are also Chinese. This is a fact sticking out against the secessionists' fiction. If the self-immolations are indeed protests, they are protests are the Chinese central and local governments.
There are several disturbing facts about these self-immolations:
1. The people who engage in them are young people, suggesting impulsiveness and being less knowledgeable; and
2. The Tibetan Chinese secessionist organization in India is very quick in publishing information about these self-immolations often in days. This does suggest that either it is involved in these self-immolations or that they have a strong underground network in the places where the self-immolations took place.
3. Western media are also quick to publicize them as "protests against Chinese rule".
4. Anyone with some knowledge of the ground realities knows that these self-immolations would not lead to Tibet's secession from China.
5. The publicity surrounding these self-immolations and the anti-China emotions aroused does cause some public relations problems for China and, more critically, bring in funds desperately needed by the Tibetan Chinese secessionist organization in India for their continued operations. The major financial backers of the organization need some reasonable returns for their investments.

"Intentions are often very difficult to know because people with an agenda usually say what they do not mean in order to mislead other people for whatever real purposes they have in their minds."
So what is the agenda behind the Chinese government denying access to this article?! Are you saying seriously, there is no agenda behind that? HA HA HA! Try harder, Chinabot!
"So what is the agenda behind the Chinese government denying access to this article?! "
Perhaps it is to prevent further copycat immolations or to deny the publicity such sick acts sought in the first place or both. Beijing must stop the immolations by any means necessary -- it is a tragic waste of lives -- and to clamp down on media reporting seems to me a very reasonable thing to do as a part of a multi-faceted plan to slow down or stop these things from going on.
"there is no agenda behind that?"
The Exile Community often tries to see sinister motives behind everything Beijing does in Tibet. I think sometimes, in fact often, all Beijing is trying to do is to improve lives for Tibetans, nothing more. Of course this can represent an existential threat to the Exile government. If Tibetans still in Tibet have steadily improving lives the TGIE's raison d'etre or raison de la guerre will diminish and the TGIE must find a new reason for continued existence.
In fact the TGIE seems to have reinvented its fight many times over, accusations like Cultural Genocide (not distinguishable from the effects of globalisation, would have happened anyway under any other government) and once in a while protests that turn violent, and lately the string of immolations. All designed to prevent Beijing from enacting successful programs for Tibetans. For instance, settling nomads into permanent housing was opposed as a sinister plot to destroy Tibetan culture. Some even argued that the nomads cannot cope with this change -- I cannot believe that their so called advocates think they should stay in hardscrabble lives. Considering that a good chunk of Tibetans were nomads, this is a sure way to keep Tibet down.
In the final analysis, the TGIE has done much to stunt living standards improvement for Tibetans. Think about it, why would Beijing enact expensive security regimes if it doesn't have to worry about violent protests and immolations? In a way, the protestors have made lives much worse for regular Tibetans.
so, how much did you receive from the CCP for this post?
Mr. Daveycool,
I don't want to spoil your fun. I noticed you had a crack at Buddhaboy. If Tibet was so great, why aren't Tibetans in exile are moving back to China in great numbers. Until you see that type of migration you can't with certainty argue that the CPC is doing such a great job. If if there was such a movement, does it mean that China is doing a good job in Tibet?
I uneasy with the whole look see what I did for the natives argument. As long as China can hold on Tibet, it her's. The whole benefiting the local population argument is the same type of argument they was used during the colonial period. In the Indonesian side of Papua, the per capita income is 50% higher than in the PNG (an independent country), according to the PNG Opposition MP 10,000 PNG Citizens along the border have moved in to Indonesian side of Papua. Why? According to him better services. Does that make the Indonesian treatment of Papuans less horrible?
You of course can whine that colonialism was different, was that different? How different is Tibet vs China, and England vs Ireland. People often don't think of Ireland as a colony, but it was England's first colony. People are so fascinated by Europeans ruling brown/red/yellow people can comparing it with Tibet-China, a more apt comparison is Ireland-England. The England more or less assimilated the Irish, they controlled Ireland longer than the Chinese controlled Tibet.
Whether it was Ireland / Colonies in Asia or Africa they eventually became independent. With the influx of Han Chinese in Tibet, the Tibetans will eventually be assimilated in 100 years. Can you name territory that has kept its culture where the original inhabitants are swamped by outsiders.
"so, how much did you receive from the CCP for this post?"
Not a single cent. But what's the matter, can't argue the points of my post so just smear me as a 50 cent poster? You are so incapable of making any serious comment.
"If Tibet was so great, why aren't Tibetans in exile are moving back to China in great numbers."
That's because they genuinely believe in their own propaganda. It's a very powerful thing, this propaganda bit. I was just watching a documentary on the Battle of Okinawa. Okinawans were killing their own parents because Tokyo had told them that US soldiers would rape their grandmothers and eat their livers with a nice chianti. So they decided that they would rather die than live through that horror. Tokyo is evil. But I digress.
"The whole benefiting the local population argument is the same type of argument they was used during the colonial period."
I don't feel like repeating myself but I guess I'll have to. It's hard to see what Beijing has done in Tibet as unmitigated badness. But greater autonomy or indepenedence implies that they can do a better job. They can't.
"As long as China can hold on Tibet, it her's."
I don't care if China holds on to Tibet. I get exasperated when these buddha types keep talking about autonomy and all that as if it's a guaranteed improvement when it's actually a near certainty that it will be much worse. But that's not the only problem. They will still not learn, they will have blamed their failure on the damage incurred during Beijing's watch.
"How different is Tibet vs China, and England vs Ireland."
I think very. As I understand it, Beijing is pouring money into Tibet while with the Brits the wealth flowed to London, not the other way round. Even with bright new cities such as Hong Kong or Singapore, they were built with wealth earned locally. I don't think London gave out any money, outright. I have a very good friend who is Irish Catholic. He told me about some of the policies the British had on Ireland. Did you know that his grandfather's generation was denied education if they remained Catholic? Catholic children were educated by covert/make-shift schools. I don't thing Beijing has policies remotely like that at all. These are qualitatively very different things. So your comparison falls short.
Buddhaboy sounded despondent. He sounded like he was at a funeral. He needed a lift. Although what I wrote sounded like a CCP propaganda piece (I amd being paid a lot more than 50 cents) it's still true that Tibet has a lot of good going for it. He needs to stop with the doom and gloom. All the meditation is making him very dark insdie. It's not good for him.
"Can you name territory that has kept its culture where the original inhabitants are swamped by outsiders."
I think a better way to look at it is what does original culture mean? Look at Japan. It adopted lots of Western stuff. Heck its New Year celebration, it's most important festival, was moved to the Gregorian New Year's day. What's up with that? Has Japan lost it's Japan-ness? I would think not -- they still haven't apologised for their brutal occupation of East Asia, proof enough for me. So will Tibet be wiped out? I don't think so as long as Steven Seagal and Richard Gere carry on the tradition. You cannot reverse the course of nature. Even and independent and separate Tibet will be swamped by Chinese anyway much like the Russian Far East.
Daveycool actually has a point when he asks: "What does original culture mean?"
If I may quote my brother in law one more time, he's told me proudly that while Rome (i.e. the Roman empire) has vanished long time ago China's still around, in particular Chinese culture. Which made me wonder.
Roman culture in my eyes is still around, too, isn't it? Maybe not obviously for Chinese eyes, but nevertheless. Rome had extended as far as Britain, and Roman culture (alphabet, literature, philosophy, music, art) is part of the heritage of most European countries. Ok, Europe's not exactly part of the Roman Empire anymore but how much does that mean in terms of culture?
While I continued with the New Year's Feast (which was delicious as expected) I wondered what exactly was that Chinese culture that he was so proud of? What is Chinese culture known for in the West except for food? The Terracotta soldiers? Great. What else? The Great Wall. Nowadays though it's rather the Great *Fire*wall that China is (in)famous for.
Living in China I still find it difficult to nail what exactly is different about Chinese culture apart from food. Isn't it essentially just another developing country which is some 30 years behind in many aspects of modernity? Will China in 30 years really look any different from the US or Japan? I have my doubts.
Culture is a relative thing. You have to know it to be able to appreciate it. That's why I live in China. The more I understand Chinese culture (whatever that is) the more I appreciate it.
On the other hand, it's easy to dismiss another culture if you're proud of your own. And most people are. Americans are proud of their personal freedoms, including their right to own guns, and Italians love their Berlusconi. What can you say? It's all relative.
Now how well do Chinese know Tibetan culture? Not very well IMO (there are individual exceptions of course). And what's more dangerous, they mostly look down on key aspects of Tibetan history and identity.
How are Tibetans supposed to maintain their cultural identity in the face of an all out assault, demographically, economically, linguistically and so on.
Good luck!
I'm not even saying that Tibetan speaking areas in the Himalayas outside of the PRC's control will fare much better. People of Ladakh, Darjeeling or Bhutan who may previously have looked to Lhasa culturally are cut off from the Tibetan heartland which becomes sinicized as they watch.
And Tibetans in exile keep holding candle light vigils...
Such is life.
An independent Tibet would be as much swamped by China as Mongolia. How much that is we will have to see.
At least other Himalayan peoples would have a part in it, too.
"Living in China I still find it difficult to nail what exactly is different about Chinese culture apart from food."
There is a simple way to look at this. Look at the glorious numbers of Chinese living with the various permutations of Chinese Culture. Look at Tibet. So tiny. You need a magnifying glass to find it. Both cultures are old. But over time, one grew stronger and the other grew weaker. Why? Because one works and is adaptive and the other just likes to blame others for it being inconsequential. One will be a living culture but could change beyond recognition and the other will likely be a museum thing. Can Tibetan culture be "saved"? Yes but it will have to make compromises. How long can it be maintained by simply throwing money at it, how many Tibetans should stay poor in traditional lifestyles. What about polyandry? Shaman healing? That God-King thing
Should a culture be kept on life-support? Or should that culture morph and evolve?
I wonder what the future holds for Bhutan then - they are trying very hard to keep their culture from having to change and adapt, opening up at a very slow pace.
Simple way? Very much so!
So what is Chinese culture then? A famous Japanese Zen master said life's really only about 2 things, and they both start with an f.
So morphing and evolving is just fine as long as it provides for the f's I guess. Is that Chinese culture in a nutshell? Or the way DXP has put it with the cat?
Chinese must be proud of themselves (although that's not the impression I get from people like Yang Rui).
A wealthy Chinese friend has been to Palau a year or so ago. He said the scenery was good but they didn't have anything else.
I didn't ask whether he meant casinos or table dance bars...
Who says Tibetans wouldn't have been able to find their own way? They've already established their little democracy in exile, way ahead of the motherland which can pride itself only of a "people's democratic dictatorship"...
I could go but I won't. You're getting the drift.
That's not to say that I don't like Chinese culture. It's nice. At least as long as it's not shoved down people's throats...
"I don't feel like repeating myself but I guess I'll have to. It's hard to see what Beijing has done in Tibet as unmitigated badness. But greater autonomy or indepenedence implies that they can do a better job. They can't."
By your argument, then Indonesian should take over PNG since they are clearly doing a better job than the PNG, people are actually moving there.
Getting back to Tibet, the Chinese are there for a reason, they aren't doing it for free. If you think they are you are delusional. Countries can surrender sovereignty of a territory if they feel its total useless and not worth the hassle. Look at Egypt and the Gaza Strip. If Tibet as like the Gaza Strip, China would be long gone. No, they are not doing for free. Tibet is important for two reasons 1) Sources of all the major rivers in China, India and SEA 2) Mineral Resources. The third reasons mentioned alot is security, Tibet is nice to have, but no critical for China's security.
As for your argument that European took and contributed very little to colonial enterprises might have been true in the beginning, but not toward the end with many of the colonies. IF that was the case, why did the British East India company go bankrupt?

I think you are being your typical condescending self. It took China 150 years before it adopted, and they did not like it either, and some Chinese are still blaming others today.
Polyandry - your wife would like that. Shaman Healing - How is that different from the Chinese Zodiac. The God King Thing - Pickling Mao is about the same.
" How long can it be maintained by simply throwing money at it, how many Tibetans should stay poor in traditional lifestyles. What about polyandry? Shaman healing? That God-King thing"
Every civilizing power has a certain threshold. For Indonesian authorities its very basic with regards to Papua, everything else is optional.
1) Don't eat each other.
2) Wear pants/shirts or at last a penis sheath.
3) Don't push for independence.
4) Tribal warfare should be non-lethal.
The Indonesian government does not force Papuans to go to school. Or restrict their religion. What are the CPC minimal conditions? Can you tell me? I don't an nonsensical one like follow the CPC.
"1) Don't eat each other.
2) Wear pants/shirts or at last a penis sheath."
See Indonesia is so backward. I support gay rights: they should eat whatever turns them on and they can wear whatever the heck they want.
I am talking about Papua. Yes its backward, just 40 years ago they were largely stone age cannibals. Yes people were still be BBQ in Papua in the 1970s. The Indonesians have done a far better job in Papua given what they had to work with than what the CPC has done in Tibet, if you were to judge by a civilizing mission.
Of course literacy rate among native Papuans is now 85% higher than PNG (50%).
I am sure the CPC does not force a nomad to go to school. They don't. First thing for the CPC with regards to Tibetans is most likely 1) Don't cause trouble. All the other stuff about learning Chinese, accepting modernization is optional and nice, but if you are a trouble maker (like JAIHA) all the other stuff becomes irrelevant.
"Is that Chinese culture in a nutshell?"
I don't pretend to be an authority on Chinese Culture. But I do know that it is wildly more successful than Tibetan Culture. At the end of the day, you can sneer at simplistic things like numbers under that culture. You're arguing that there is a qualitative dimension to it. That's probably true. But if a culture is so unsuccessful that it eventually has no living practitioner, what good is it? In my opinion, culture is a by product of people's struggle to survive. Rules and customs evolve and get codified. That's what culture is.
Art, even religion came about because of people's desire to understand and control the forces that shape their lives. You cannot divorce culture too far from the idea that it was fundamentally evolved from the struggle to survive. At an earlier time, perhaps we needed more religion to keep us from being overwhelmed by things we don't understand. Some cultures even practiced human sacrifice to stay on the good side of the gods. I'm glad most of human culture have moved on from those kinds of things. If Tibetan Culture changed, I won't shed a tear. It will eventually be a good thing.
"They've already established their little democracy in exile,"
But that's after five or six decades after these elite exiles got their collective behinds kicked. I can't help thinking that this is the latest gimmick the Exiles are trying to gain sympathy or to keep their thing alive.
way ahead of the motherland which can pride itself only of a "people's democratic dictatorship"...
You won't get me to defend the Chinese system. I admit I admire a part of it but there is something nagging me about me not coming out in full support for a Chinese Democracy. However, my confidence in democracies has really been shaken by what has happened in the United States and even in Europe in recent years. No one is really taking responsiblity for the crap. The people are really on their own. But I really hope someday someone comes up with a working form of democracy -- maybe the Chinese?
"That's not to say that I don't like Chinese culture."
You have this weird thing with Chinese Culture. Intellectually you think of it one way (love or hate) but emotionally you feel the other way. On balance, though, you come out hating it, I'd have to say.
"I think you are being your typical condescending self. It took China 150 years before it adopted, and they did not like it either, and some Chinese are still blaming others today."
Yes, exactly the point. But I think it was still good for China to have eventually realised that old China is gone for good. Tibetans have yet to realise it, it seems.
"Polyandry - your wife would like that."
I offered thie choice to my wife but she passed on it -- something about being constantly exhausted from pleasing me.
"Shaman Healing - How is that different from the Chinese Zodiac."
Chinese Zodiac is superior. But I draw the line when Falungong types tell me that meditation can cure cancers.
"The God King Thing - Pickling Mao is about the same."
You know how I feel about Mao, right?
Nice reply, Daveycool. Will have to meditate on it...
Yes, I have this weird thing with Chinese culture. But no, on balance I don't hate it (anymore, I will have to add). I do like it (now).
But admittedly I (still) enjoy taking a dig at aspects of it. Just a personality trait of mine, no big deal.
Do you know Hexie Farm's cartoons on China Digital Times?
Well, it's not everyone's sense of humour. But I love them.
Humour is if you can laugh at yourself.

I hoping Spidey fights the Sinister Syndicate in the AS3 myself. I don't know what will happen to the Rhino in the upcoming flick, but the whole group making an appearance would be cool.
I agree, the S6 would be a fantastic 3rd movie. Would Spidey have the Black Cat help him? I would like to see him buddy up in a movie. It hasn't been done yet. Just please... not Hugh Jackman (I know, I know... studio rights and all that, I just wanted to put the joke out there)
There has to be at least one more movie before the Sinister Six can come into it. What villains have they intrduced? Certianly not enought to make up the S6. At least one more movie, then get on to the S6. Sony seems to handling this new Spidey series with pride, I am a very happy panda.o
Sony has done better by Spiderman than Fox has by X-Men and the FF. At least they haven't screwed up Spiderman's film continuity like Fox has with X-Men and are about screw up the FF's.
I have a feeling Rhino will just be comic relief with no suit for this movie, but if i does go full full Rhino it will be with Osborn's help and some Rhino DNA...
Rhino will have a suit, either the 616 version or the mech-like one from the Ultimate U.
axia agree completely.
Oh wow the Rhino, as much as I loved Spidey as a kid, now I feel like he has the worst villains in the marvel universe.
Yeah, The Rhino will definately be in costume. They Showed Paul G. in some type of Huge Mo-Cap suit. How much film time he will get, will remain to be seen. I agree, with 3 solid movies to set up the villians, then the 4th being the the sinister 6.
@almostunbias, There is a reason spidey has such street level (basic) villians. His likability is because he doesn't take on Galatus or Magneto. Simple stories of stopping a bank robbery or something simple like that. Thats why all his villians are almost always stronger then him. He usually beats them with his smarts.
You guys should read the bio they had for Rhino in the video game. it was spot on with the character we are going to see in the film only he was offered up to Oscorp as a test subject who was experimented on with a formula similar to what Connors used. i think he will be a mutation
there are also alot of easter eggs in the game that reference the vulture including billboards with the name Adrian Toombs

Introductory Reading for the 'Being a Leader and The Effective Exercise of Leadership: An Ontological / Phenomenological Model' CourseWerner ErhardIndependent Michael C. JensenSocial Science Electronic Publishing (SSEP), Inc.; Harvard Business School; National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER); European Corporate Governance Institute (ECGI) Steve ZaffronLandmark Worldwide LLC; Vanto Group Kari L. GrangerCenter For Character and Leadership Development September 2, 2014 Harvard Business School Negotiations, Organizations and Markets Unit Research Paper Series No. 10-091 Barbados Group Working Paper No. 08-01 Simon School Working Paper No. 08-02 Gruter Institute Squaw Valley Conference 2009: Law, Behavior & the Brain Abstract: This paper is the fifth of five pre-course readings for our leadership course. The intention of this one semester leadership course is to leave participants actually being leaders and exercising leadership effectively as their natural self-expression. By "natural self-expression" we mean a way of being and acting in any leadership situation that is a spontaneous and intuitive effective response to what one is dealing with. The course is based on a new science of leadership. In addition to being designed to actually create leaders, this new science of leadership enables faculty in higher education to access, study, research, and teach being a leader and the effective exercise of leadership as these are actually lived and experienced. History of the Course: This course was first taught at the University of Rochester Simon School of Business from 2004 to 2008. The course was taught in the curriculum at the US Air Force Academy from 2008 to 2011 (where a version of the course continues to be taught); Erasmus Academie Rotterdam, Netherlands, in June 2009 (a version of which was taught at the Erasmus University Law School from 2009 and 2010); at Texas A&M University Mays School of Business, USA, in June 2010; in India under the auspices of the IC Centre for Governance and MW Corp in November 2010; at the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth College, USA, in June 2012; in Whistler, B.C. Canada for the benefit of the Erhard-Jensen Ontological / Phenomenological Initiative in October 2012; at entrepreneurship@UBC, University of British Columbia, Canada in June 2013; in Cancun, Mexico for the benefit of the Erhard-Jensen Ontological / Phenomenological Initiative in October 2013, in Singapore, hosted by Nanyang Technological University, in July 2014, in Bermuda for the benefit of the Erhard-Jensen Ontological / Phenomenological Initiative in October 2014 and at the Zayed University Convention Center, Dubai, UAE in January 2015. The promise of the course is to leave participants actually being leaders and exercising leadership effectively as their natural self-expression and our intention is for the course to contribute to the development of the science of leadership. The course is founded on an ontological / phenomenological model of human nature. Our desire is to make the course available to faculty in higher education to teach it, to communicate it and to extend it. This material is not fully complete nor is it polished to our standards. We are releasing the material so that we can benefit from the comments, criticisms and suggestions of others in higher education who share our desire to accelerate the development of a true science of leadership. We want to see this material (or material derived from it) taught in every major business school and university. While the course is still a work in progress, we, the authors and instructors, are making all the materials available through SSRN (Social Science Research Network) to those faculty members who wish to teach versions of the course in any university or college setting.

Arizona woman accused of faking cancer to get money
GILBERT, Ariz. -- A Gilbert woman is accused of fraudulently claiming she has cancer and getting thousands of dollars in donations.
Gilbert police say 41-year-old Kelly Ann Wasko is being held on a $25,000 bond. She's been booked into jail on five counts of fraudulent schemes and six counts of theft. She doesn't have a lawyer yet.
Police say Wasko claimed she desperately needed a bone marrow transplant which her insurance wouldn't cover.
Authorities say a Facebook page was created by a family friend to collect funds to assist Wasko with the supposed medical procedure.
More than $12,000 reportedly was donated including $1,000 from Wasko's adult daughter and $350 from a person with cancer.
Police say Wasko allegedly defrauded another victim out of $8,000 by claiming one of her children had died.

I really agree with you!
Theres http://razor-qt.org/ but its developement sems to go slowly...
And its a pre-Qt5 and pre-Qml.
QML for desktop widgets and other stuff would be nice, and not that hard to implement (KDE4 has to made the whole Plasma desktop think for the widgets).
I hope Razor-Qt would pick-up Qt5 new features and make it a good desktop.
The "bad things" for GNOME they pointed out was their focus on the traditional desktop [...]
Seems that some people never learn for their past mistakes...
Why does everyone always want to create their own OS? GnomeOS, FirefoxOS, ChromeOS, etc. One of the chief complaints from most projects is lack of developers, but somehow a desktop specific OS will somehow make things better? Doesn't that require more developers and fragment existing developers? What does a custom OS buy you other than more stuff to support directly and less chance to share the load?
Gnome developers have delusions of grandeur, big time.
I suspect GnomeOS will fall flat on it's face. I also suspect it will just be Fedora Re-branded with some modest changes. If i am correct on the latter, it is unlikely they will pull (and sustain) much of an audience/user-base from other well-established linux distributions, such as Ubuntu/debian, Archlinux, gentoo, etc. I think there are a lot of linux users whom have picked their distro based on the specific tools that they provide (package management as one example). What real advantages is GnomeOS going to provide _over_ the current linux distributions these users are already happy with? My feeling is that they are going to have to provide some VERY VERY compelling features to gain any traction, at all.
Gnome on mobile isn't too likely to be widely adopted, either. it's essentially the same story; what compelling features are they going to be able to provide over iOS or Android? (if they can even 'match' those platforms, which i think is unlikely)... One could argue that it is an open platform and a 'real' linux distribution unlike android, but at the end of the day - does the average consumer even care about that? (probably not, although most people in this forum would). At the point where we have mobile devices that can run XYZ linux distro (with proper support), people will just want to run whatever distro they like on their tablet. Hell, they might even use Gnome with GS or with another shell (or not at all).
I do however really like that they are planning an SDK, that seems like a good idea if you actually want people to target your platform.
They practically dropped support for non-touch devices when they released gnome shell. Thanks to canonical for providing a fallback mode that is almost as good as gnome 2.focus on the traditional desktop
I wonder Whom they meant with fragmentation / freeloaders ?

A Buyer's Guide to Smart but Stylish Bedroom Storage
Your bedroom should be your sanctuary, but more often than not it becomes a hiding place for all the little (or big!) things you don't want visitors to find. This can make it feel at best a little cluttered, and at worst stuffy, stifling and oppressive.

Give your bedroom a facelift
Update your bedroom and look at sliding wardrobe doors and storage. Fitted furniture helps maximise space, from beds to new wardrobes. Follow our helpful advice to show you how to assemble flat pack furniture or how to try out new decorating techniques.

Comic Book Easter Eggs – Invincible Easter Eggs!
Every week, I will be sharing with you three comic book "easter eggs." An easter egg is a joke/visual gag/in-joke that a comic book creator (typically the artist) has hidden in the pages of the comic for readers to find (just like an easter egg). They range from the not-so-obscure to the really obscure. So come check 'em all out and enjoy! Also, click here for an archive of all the easter eggs featured so far! If you want to suggest an easter egg for a future column, e-mail me at email@example.com (do not post your suggestion in the comments section!).
This week, all the easter eggs come courtesy of Robert Kirkman, Cory Walker and Ryan Ottley's Invincible!

Maybe you heard them at the HORDE Festival opening for Blues Traveler. Perhaps you''ve seen them share the stage with Guster and Widespread Panic at the Walnut Creek Ampitheater. Or maybe you stayed up late with the band as they jammed all night long with Phish at the Lemonwheel. Chances are if you''re into the kind of music that lingers in your head long after the show ends, you''ve experienced Conehead Buddha.

For the friends that think an actual Star Trek costume is just too dorky, you can point out that it's really just a t-shirt. The rest won't know the difference, if you wear it with a jacket! Plus, even with that big panel of ink, it will be way more comfortable than those polyester costumes! Not to mention way cheaper... :-)

Show your friends that you're too lazy even to stuff a pillow in your shirt. But at least you wore a costume, right? Detail view. There is some half toning, but the spot size should be large enough to print evenly.
Re: By the Magic of Grayskull
it's a bit of a risk, but with all the zeldas and the like we've already seen in the derby thread, I felt it was an easy enough design to be worth it. It's not like there'll be much in the way of self respect this derby, so I am happy to put mine on hold for something that may indeed carry a bunch of fans. Orko was always one of my favorite cartoon characters when I was younger. I actually made a full costume once. Hell, I may even post pictures if this manages to print. I AM ALL ABOUT GIVING BACK.

Gio Gonzalez struggled, but his teammates (and the Cubs bullpen) bailed him out.
Game in a nutshell: Stymied once again by a Cubs starter (Matt Garza this time) the Nationals waited until the Chicago bullpen entered to inflict their damage. Kerry Wood and Carlos Marmol gave up five runs in a wild eighth inning as the Nats stormed back to improve to 2-0.
Hitting highlight: Trailing by two runs with two outs in the top of the eighth, eight consecutive Nationals batters reached safely. Danny Espinosa ignited the rally with an opposite-field homer, and Chad Tracy delivered once again with a two-run single that put the Nats ahead for good.
Pitching lowlight: Making his highly anticipated Nationals debut, Gio Gonzalez labored from the moment he took the mound and couldn't make it out of the fourth inning. The left-hander allowed four runs onRead more »

Well done, boys!Rizzo and Davey have some tough calls when Ankiel and Morse come back. Tracy is off to a great start. Lombo and Bernie had big hits tonight. (It's almost 11 p.m. in France.) Davey also seems to like Carroll and Nady.Other than Lombo, the minor league options are scarce, but sending Lombo down would leave a hole in the thin infield.I think they'll send out one outfielder and a pitcher. Don't be surprised if Gorzy is one of the odd men out. GYFNG!!!
- Rabbit - Apr 7, 2012 at 8:56 PM
Tough decision about who to send down when Ankiel and Morse return. The perfect solution is WERTH. But he will continue to ride along on the backs of everyone else. Great game today. We are looking better and better.
- Anonymous - Apr 7, 2012 at 8:58 PM
I think they'll send out one outfielder and a pitcher. Don't be surprised if Gorzy is one of the odd men out. That's brilliant. And who else is left-handed in the bullpen besides Burnett? And how reliable was he last year? Not too swift Nats fans not sure why everyone is on Gorzo when last year he pitched better than Lannan yet everyone thinks Lannan got shafted … shakes head ruefully … how can you follow a sport and be so ignorant?
- Cwj - Apr 7, 2012 at 8:58 PM
One thing we don't have to worry about tomorrow is that J.Zimmermann has pinpoint control.Much like against Strasburg, hitters have to scratch and slap their way to a couple runs in 6-7 innings.I always feel confident when those 2 are on the mound. But Gio wasn't quite as bad as Mark and the Box Score would have us believe. He'll be fine, and was probably just nervous making his Nats debut. Go Nats!!!!
- Anonymous - Apr 7, 2012 at 9:02 PM
that picture above"of gio gonzales" is an example of the inverted w,pitchers with good mechanics like glavine,halladay,lee,ryan,clemens ect. have their throwing arm up and vertical,with their throwing hand by thier ear
- Anonymous - Apr 7, 2012 at 9:03 PM
But Gio wasn't quite as bad as Mark and the Box Score would have us believe. Its the three walks, not the hits … constantly getting behind the hitters. It wasn't good. Clearly, Davey wanted this bullpen (and he got it) so that he could pull a fast hook on starters … with Stammen and Gorzelanny its not a problem. After them it gets even harder.
- Cwj - Apr 7, 2012 at 9:05 PM
Drew and Anon 4:58- Obviously the Nats need 7 relievers.So no pitcher will go down until Storen comes back. Gorzelanny is an effective reliever, as is Stammen and, well, pretty much everyone in the bullpen.It'll be a very tough cut when Storen returns.
- UNTERP - Apr 7, 2012 at 9:05 PM
Tomorrow, I expect the Nats to play from ahead…
- Cwj - Apr 7, 2012 at 9:10 PM
Anon 5:02- There isn't much evidence to support the theory that all pitchers with "bad" mechanics get injured, or that all pitchers with "good" mechanics don't get injured.The research is still only just beginning.
- Funkyalligator - Apr 7, 2012 at 9:10 PM
Gio's start certainly wasn't as bad as the stats suggest. He couldnt get the at the knees strike call even though he put it in the same place time after time that led to him having to go a lot longer in some of the counts.
- NatsJack in Florida - Apr 7, 2012 at 9:12 PM
One more game without JayB's angst about the bench and CF. Is there anyway we can win 160 more?
- JaneB - Apr 7, 2012 at 9:27 PM
I'm with funky. If Gio had gotten those calls, the walks would have been outs. But MAN what a tough call when Morse and Ankiel come back! I think Bernie deserves to stay up, and Tracy is the new Laynce Nix.
- NatsJack in Florida - Apr 7, 2012 at 9:32 PM
Easy call. Bye bye Lombardozzi. Hello Espinosa at short from time to time and DaRosa, here's 2b.
- Mick - Apr 7, 2012 at 9:36 PM
My guess is when all is healthy, we have a lineup of Ankiel in CF, Morse goes to LF, DeRosa and Bernidina on bench platooning
- Theophilus - Apr 7, 2012 at 9:36 PM
Agree w/ N-Jack
- Mick - Apr 7, 2012 at 9:37 PM
If LaRouche hits, he starts, if goes into slump, Morse at 1b and then Roger or DeRosa in outfield. Of course, once big boy comes up, all bets are off

NatsJack in Florida said…Bye bye Lombardozzi.I think your right, If Bernie is playing well they will delay Ankiel as long as they can, they might even see if they sneak him through wavers although I doubt he makes it. So Lombo first Bernie second. Morse going to NY is a little worrisome. If the Nats say hes fine I'll really worry.
- LoveDaNats - Apr 7, 2012 at 9:44 PM
These boys will be very fun to watch this year. Davey says they feel like they can win every game and they are starting to make me believe it. Pretty frickin bueno.
- Joe Seamhead - Apr 7, 2012 at 9:46 PM
Ok, two down. ALR sure looked great today. Espy had a great at bat, hope it's just the start of a streak. I still think Werth will come around. Gio will be fine, he really got squeezed today.Bernie, Desi, and Zimm are all making solid contact.What can you say about the pen? Or Tracy? Davey's management is a treat to watch. The only thing that I'm really worried about is what happens to who when Morse and Ankiel, and then Storen and Wang are ready to come back. That's a series of executive decisions that I wouldn't want to have to make. Right now all I know is we are 2-0, in first place and our bench has been very productive. Like many of you, even realizing that it's only two games, I'm just gushing over our start!
- sjm308 - Apr 7, 2012 at 9:48 PM
NatsJack has this right – Just like Lannan, its all about the options. As long as Tracy/Carroll/Bernadina are producing you keep them up. You could possibly try to get Tracy or Carrol through waivers and it might work but there is no reason with Lombo having options and its still a win/win since he will get valuable at bats in AAA.Hindsight is lovely but the vitrol spewed early about LaRoche/Werth/Rizzo etc is amazing when we are not ahead early. Is it that you people really don't know baseball or do you just want to hate? It is 162 games people. We are not going to win them all. If you are a fan, relax, nothing you spew here is going to make a difference (except it makes you look really stupid when we turn it around and win). Rizzo is a baseball man as is Davey and they know what they need. Werth will stay a starter, LaRoche is here for the year, Desmond will continue to leadoff, and Davey will go to the bullpen when he needs them because he built it the way he wanted. Lidge and HRod will alternate and Storen really better get well soon if he wants his spot.Mick, LaRoche does so much more then hit. Morse is not 50% of what LaRoche is in the field. I love Morse but LaRoche is our firstbaseman, get used to it.

@ Anon. 5:02You're correct about the pitching motion. Too much stress on shoulder and elboe. Some teams won't draft/sign pitchers with the inverted W/M motion.Not sure that anyone connected to the Nats, from the FO down to pitching coaches in their minor leage system really cares.
- Joe Seamhead - Apr 7, 2012 at 10:01 PM
Great post,sjm 308. One of my favorites out of the 800 some odd ones in past few days.
- NatsBrat - Apr 7, 2012 at 10:02 PM
ALR is probably better than The Beast at picking up the thrown ball at the bag. Having played there his whole career, his experience counts big time.I do think that Morse might be slightly better than ALR at fielding off the bag.Anyway, we're fortunate to have both when they are producing up to their expectations.

- Wally - Apr 7, 2012 at 10:21 PM
NJ – did you see Derosa at 2B in ST? If he can handle it, it makes sense to send down Lombo. If not, probably have to keep him.To me, Ankiel and Bernie offer the same thing. And with the recent talk about Werth to CF against LH, I think Carroll may go when Morse is back.
- Theophilus - Apr 7, 2012 at 10:22 PM
If LaRoche has a few more days like this $8MM for 2013 will look pretty good.
- Anonymous - Apr 7, 2012 at 10:24 PM
It'll be a very tough cut when Storen returns.Nope, it'll be Stammen because he still has options. But as Natsjack pointed out (and now having more than enough rope) the FO will string out Storen's recovery in Florida. Seems like the cold weather could bring about an injury but its been a mild year so … My guess is Bernadina over Chad Tracy. Tracy hits a clutch single and the Shark takes a bigger bite with a clutch double. They may be able to get Tracy through waivers … that won't happen with Bernadina … or Gorzelanny for that matter. Far too many teams need a guy who could be the #3 on many teams in Gorzelanny. People need to stop with the ridiculous and embarrassingly stupid attitude toward Gorzlanny and start acting like the Cubs fans who appear to be far more baseball savvy. Haven't heard one bad word about Gorzo from them because they understood what Jim Tracy did in abusing the guy (took him 2+ years to recover) and that he was still trying to come back to the pitcher he once was …

Easy call. Bye bye Lombardozzi. Hello Espinosa at short from time to time and DaRosa, here's 2b.Have to say this makes the most sense … Lombardozzi and Carroll for Ankiel and Morse. Syracuse has a real dearth of middle infielders … Seth Bynum at short today. Hoffpauir at second. Terrible … makes Maya's day against the Yankee's farm affiliate even more amazing 6 innings 4 strikeouts NO WALKS, and just 4 hits on 84 pitches.

You know, we're building a fan base here and we have all levels of baseball knowledge represented. Some have played the game, some may have watched it for years, some may be new to watching it. One thing we all have in common (I think), is that we care about and root for this team's success. Otherwise, why would we be reading and commenting here? Might it be possible to accept and allow for the various levels of knowledge of and appreciation for the game without resorting to questioning the intelligence or fandom of other commenters when we disagree with what they post? I know it's the interwebz and all but a gal can dream, right? Right? (cue The Impossible Dream ;-))

Might it be possible to accept and allow for the various levels of knowledge of and appreciation for the game without resorting to questioning the intelligence or fandom of other commenters when we disagree with what they post? Then there's the point that some here have made and that Sue Dinem/Luke Erickson is very poignant about when he constantly broaches it: Players and their families read these comments. I have no clue why but they do.From my perspective it seems better have an educated opinion about a player like Tom Gorzelanny, know his history and why the Nats like him instead of using him as a scape goat without any real justification. There are some cases when fan criticism is appropriate. BUT NOT in the cases of Ryan Mattheus and Tom Gorzleanny who are two parts of what may be the best bullpen in baseball right now.

Two homers today for Prince … he was very excited about becoming a Nat … its really a shame that couldn't happen … hopefully the silver lining is Adam LaRoche trying to prove that he isn't irrelevant that he can wield a dangerous left-handed bat.

Don't envy making the decision as to who to send down. Hope Davey and Mike are on the same page this time. Apparently they weren't with Lannan.
- whatsanattau - Apr 7, 2012 at 11:49 PM
– I had no interruption on DirecTV. Sounds like a Verizon problem not a MASN problem. But who knows.- I think Nady goes down for Morse. I realize that puts him at risk, but there are four current roster spots to swap out in April if we're lucky. Morse, Ankiel, Storen, and Wang.Morse – NadyAnkiel – BernadinaStoren – MatheusWang – StammenAssuming no other injuries. Options aside, I don't think they can go without a backup middle infielder and if Lombo leaves, DeRosa has to stay on the bench. Not plausible.Carrol could go instead of one of the above, but he also appears to be needed as a CF backup. So what do you do with Bernadina? I think they'll try to trade him, but he might have to accept assignment or release. A shame. But he is replaceable and probably would not survive the Harper call up anyway.
- Waddu eye no - Apr 7, 2012 at 11:50 PM
Masn ok on directv. But still set the tivo to pause and listened to charlie& dave

Oh, and if memory serves, Bernadina has never been that good as a pinch hitter and while he is probably a better defender than Morse, you would not put him in defensively for Ankiel or Werth.

Anon 7:15- Who was using Gorzelanny as a scape goat? He hasn't even pitched yet You quoted me, but all I said was that when Storen comes back it'll be a tough decision on who to cut from the bullpen.I also said Gorzelanny and Stammen were effective relievers.I must have missed a post about Gorzelanny.

DHamm- I have Comcast as well (WV) and didn't experience any problems with MASN.Looks like it was a problem specific to other cable providers perhaps.

Anon at 6:24 — Who was the unsung here of the day? Craig Stammen. Who stopped the Cubs' rally and kept them in check for two more innings so we could have a chance to come back? Craig Stammen. So I wouldn't be so quick to say that Stammen will be sent down when Storen returns. Mattheus had a great day too, and yet he also has options remaining.And great job by ALR! Maybe he won't be a slow starter this year, after all.
