Jan 18, 2015Not being American and familiar with the story I found this incomprehensible. It does not even seem to be a particularly momentus time in history. Its not as if the Americans were the first to ban slavery !!

Aug 27, 2014Through the direction of Steven Spielberg, Daniel Day-Lewis brings us on an incredible journey through the mind and intimacy of Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln is a focus on the person as well as the accomplishments.

Jul 28, 2014Tarihsel gerçekliğe lafım yok o dönemi iyi yansıtıyor oyuncu, yönetmen hatta müzikler çok iyi fakat bir filmi izlerken bu kadar sıkıldığımı az hatırlıyorum.

Apr 11, 2014Director/producer Steven Steilberg has great movies made everyday . his project on Lincoln is okay i guess
History is okay but its gets me tired . Stielbergs films are great but this one way 60 % enjoyable . Grade B -

Feb 3, 2014和这位伟人一样,本片很沉闷,当然也是一部拍得很美的电影,刘易斯的演技如火纯青,菲尔德和琼斯的演技也很不错,John Williams继续发挥其大神水准。

Jan 29, 2014Great performances, especially Daniel Day Lewis and Tommy Lee Jones, and fascinating subject matter. Unfortunately, at two and a half hours, the film is simply hard to get through.
Jan 25, 2014
Dec 31, 2013Certamente foi um filme bem interessante, graças a genialidade de Steven Spielberg e a atuação hipnótica de Daniel Day-Lewis e de todo seu elenco que foi magnífico.
Dec 18, 2013
Nov 30, 2013I do admit, it was okay, but it just wasn't what I was expecting. It was disappointing, fairly. It didn't seem to fit in with the whole History thing. But that's just me. It was slow, and some parts I did not understand. It had boring moments that I also fell asleep to. But other than that, it was an okay film.
Nov 27, 2013A tedious, stale script and poor rising action makes this movie a slow moving chore to watch. James Spader does a good job fitting his role, but it is not enough to save this sinking ship.

Sep 24, 2013Even though I am more of a Confederate guy... I gotta say that the film Lincoln is a great film with great acting and a great inside look at Lincolns time as president.
Sep 16, 2013Oh, what a movie. Spielberg is back to his old tricks to making good movies. Lincoln is a character study, as well as featuring an authentic, true performance by Daniel Day-Lewis hat seals us away and shows off his acting talents. He gets everything about Lincoln's disposition down to a tee, beard and all.
Sep 7, 2013Lets get this Bill passed.. find someone to help pass this bill... hey bill will you help me pass this Bill.. wow what a waste of talent. actors were superb sets and direction was excellent. but give me a break the story should have focused much more on personal relationships and how without that bill there lives being affected by it. that would have made a more powerful movie...
Aug 22, 2013
Jul 14, 2013I really don't think anyone really needs any kind of lengthy review of this movie at this point. You know what it's about, or at least you should.
Exceptional acting from the entire cast; a very well written script and great directing. -
Jun 28, 2013I'm not really into biographies or historical films, however Lincoln just fascinated me. The movie was set at the apex of his career and the film really never got boring. The acting was amazing, the narrative was well told, and it was an extremely memorable movie.
Jun 23, 2013I am not an American and don't now much about their history. This was a huge disappointment. Tedious and long winding. If you don't care for the intricacies of politics, don't waste your time.

May 19, 2013It's confusing and a little tiring, but satisfying and therefore the performance of its cast saves the film from any negative review, apart from a policy, the film runs smoothly and its soundtrack brings an air of sweetness, which helps in the important parts of the movie and this establishes the film as one of Spielberg's best, even if he goes out of style movie director.

May 7, 2013Steven Spielberg can't go wrong. I've got to say I'm Latina, I already knew Lincolns story but this film is so meaningful and powerful that it made me realize the point of the whole historic event. Daniel Day-Lewis was Brilliant and Tommy Lee Jones was splendid. This movie is one of the Best movies i've seen in a while. Bravo Steven!
Apr 27, 2013
Apr 23, 2013This is Steven Spielberg's worst movie. It is boring, it has no action, it has no suspense, it has no story, it really has nothing. It was just one VERY long story of Lincoln's last few months, which are not very exciting at all. A History Channel documentary on Lincoln would have been 10 times better. Trust me, halfway through this movie, you will want to see Lincoln assassinated.
Apr 21, 2013
Apr 19, 2013
Apr 18, 2013Lincoln is a grenade filled with emotions. But, hopelessly, its not a Speilberg movie, I'd rather call it a Daniel-day Lewis' movie. To Speilberg, sir, it seems like the perfect time to let go this war-mania of you.
Humbly yours, Saving Private Ryan lover. -

Apr 9, 2013
Apr 9, 2013Lincoln is basically a two and a half hour play and although Daniel Day Lewis was amazing as Lincoln it is difficult to watch at one sitting cause it gets boring. I believe that this is the reason that it wasn't the best picture of 2012. The movie basically about the passing of the 13 amendment.
Apr 6, 2013
Apr 6, 2013Couldn't watch it all it was so dull. Ridiculous facial prosthetics. Watch "Boy with a bike" instead. This is not, as had expected, a biopic, it just focuses on one small piece of legistlation that they're trying to pass. An episode of the West Wing is more entertaining. DDL is good but the rest of the film ducks sonkey sicks.
Apr 6, 2013
Apr 2, 2013Daniel Day-Lewis does a fantastic mjob undeniably. However, I was bored with the repetition of dialogue, the length of the film, and the consistent dark lighting. It is great on performance and technical level for the most part but when it comes to other thing sit is far from good. I give this film 48%. Spieberg disappoints two years in a row for me.
Apr 1, 2013I love movies, that, make you think and get you sucked into that world. This movie had none of that.
I found this movie, extermely boring. So much pointless talking, all they do is talk. total bore of a movie. -
Mar 31, 2013
Mar 31, 2013My favorite movie of 2012. Lincoln is exceptional film making by Steven Spielberg, with brilliant performances by Daniel Day Lewis and Tommy Lee Jones.
Mar 30, 2013The best historical movie I've ever seen. It makes you care about our most important president in ways you would never think you would. It's funny, it's interesting, and of course, Daniel-Day Lewis is perfect as Abraham Lincoln.

Mar 15, 2013There is no way this movie did not win 'Best Picture' at the Academy awards. Truly fascinating It kept me glued to the screen. Congratulations to everyone involved here to make such a masterpiece. Daniel Day Lewis is truly an exceptional actor.
Mar 11, 2013In my opinion the best movie of 2012. Absolutely flawless. Daniel Day Lewis gave the greatest performance I have ever seen. Tommy Lee Jones best role since No Country For Old Men. Those who are saying this movie is too slow clearly doesn't appreciate history. It's as if you're getting a glimpse of Lincoln himself. Perhaps the closest we will ever be to the real man.
Mar 1, 2013The real-life characters from the time then are brought back to life, and it feels like you are in the 19th century. However, a lot of the scenes dragged out too long and I found myself drifting away at the theater because I was so bored.

Jan 30, 2013Last year USA-born Meryl Streep won her third Oscar for the portrayal of Margaret Thatcher in THE IRON LADY (2011, 7/10), this year the academy will (seemingly) reciprocate a third Oscar to Brit Daniel Day-Lewis in his rendition of Abraham Lincoln. It
Jan 29, 2013
Jan 27, 2013In my opinion, the script during the first half of this film reads like an entry in Wikipedia. And the second half lacks soul. In part, because the -much acclaimed- acting of Daniel Day-Lewis seems to me lacking in spirit; it seemed to me that he has half asleep and bored. I think that many of the glowing opinions may have more to do with the theme, than with the film.
Jan 26, 2013
Jan 24, 2013
Jan 24, 2013This film has the best Lincoln as perfectly portrayed by Daniel Day-Lewis. While the performances are trophy-worthy along with production design, the screenplay enjoys the benefit of the doubt. Nevertheless, this one deserves to join the roll of best history movies. Worth-watching.

Jan 20, 2013Lincoln is unquestionably one of Hollywood's top three films of 2013; Spielberg's direction and Day-Lewis' performance are more than just noteworthy. This is an effective and fairly displayed period piece that can only be criticized for it accurate display of a slower time and its artistry prevents any other negative honesty.
Jan 19, 2013
Jan 16, 2013
Jan 15, 2013
Jan 15, 2013Daniel Day Lewis is a perfectly cut glittering diamond in this beautifully crafted setting. Spielberg has renewed my trust in him, since this is easily the best film he's made since Saving Private Ryan.
Jan 14, 2013Although the film is a little slow at times, the acting is superb. The beginning scene is one of the best as well as the telegraphers speaking to Lincoln. Anyone who calls this movie or acting mundane, i just don't get it.
Jan 14, 2013I am very surprised to see such praise for this film.It is not only too long,but its turgid pace which drags relentlessly make it it appear even longer.Spielberg appears to have thrown away the magic template.
Jan 13, 2013
Jan 12, 2013A well made movie no doubt but not the best movie of the year. Daniel-Day Lewis is one of my favorite actors and his portrays Lincoln well. It was a good summary and can not live up to more then an historical documentary and does not rise to greatness.
Jan 12, 2013slow at most times, but the acting is fantastic and story is thought-provoking. Steven Spielberg really knows what he's doing, and this movie helps to prove it
Jan 11, 2013
Jan 10, 2013Very, very well made, and great acting. Great movie. At some times, can seem melodramatic, but all in all, it's a great film. Daniel Day Lewis delivers Lincoln expertly.
Jan 10, 2013
Jan 9, 2013No academy award winning directors or actors could save this tediously long debacle of a film. This movie seemed longer than the Civil War. It is neither engaging, entertaining, or thought provoking. Completely overrated.
Jan 9, 2013Lincoln is deprived of emotion, comedy, action and music that makes a film come alive. Even with a interesting time in our history the movie is a total bore with a pace unimaginably slow. It tries to come alive in the end but with a rushed ending the movie falls apart. A disgraceful film by Spielberg.
Jan 3, 2013I like the movie. Maybe, because I am too spoiled with action movies, this one seems slow, almost like a reading book. I found the structure to be interesting, - arguments over a passing 13 amendment has almost took entire movie, building the culmination bust in the end. The characters were deep and passionate. Overall good movie.
Jan 2, 2013A wonderful movie, it tells the part of the story that wasn't told- the struggles Lincoln had to deal with in his fight versus the Democrats and even within his own party. It's a compelling drama, in the spirit of "The King's Speech" after watching this movie I admired Lincoln, and wished I had been around to hear one of his "stories"
Jan 11, 2013Steeped in the bitter political divisions of the Civil War, Spielberg's thrilling film about hardwon freedoms is immersed in its own time, but speaks eloquently to ours.
As unexpected as it is intelligent, thanks to virtuoso work from Spielberg and Kushner, Lincoln is landmark filmmaking, while Day-Lewis is so authentic he pulls off that stovepipe.
Lincoln does sometimes get a little sappy around the edges. Though his project here is clearly one of conscious self-restraint, Spielberg can't resist the occasional opportunity for patriotic tear-jerking, usually signaled by a swell of John Williams' symphonic score. But in between, there are long stretches that are as quiet, contemplative, and austere as anything Spielberg has ever done.

The herpes virus has an uncanny ability to reside in the nerve ganglia behind the blood brain barrier in a place where the immune system cannot get to it. The opportunistic HSV virus moves from its dormant state to an active herpes outbreak when it finds that the body's immunity is compromised, making it a very difficult virus to cure. Furthermore, these viruses are known to be efficient genetic mutators and have the ability to remain hidden from the immune system for long periods of time. This means that over a period of time, the DNA of the virus changes and they become resistant to antivirals and antibiotics, making herpes difficult to combat with conventional medicine. We at Biogetica have devised a protocol that is believed to reach deep into ancient natural medicinal systems like Ayurveda and combines them with the latest developments in bio-energetic medicine systems like resonance homeopathy to combat these difficulties posed by the herpes virus. Central to this protocol are:

Audie Award Nominee, Humor, 2013
For fans of Tina Fey and David Sedaris - Internet star Jenny Lawson, aka The Bloggess, makes her literary debut.
Jenny Lawson realized that the most mortifying moments of our lives - the ones we'd like to pretend never happened - are in fact the ones that define us. In Let's Pretend This Never Happened, Lawson takes listeners on a hilarious journey recalling her bizarre upbringing in rural Texas, her devastatingly awkward high school years, and her relationship with her long-suffering husband, Victor.
Chapters include: "Stanley the Magical, Talking Squirrel", "A Series of Angry Post-It Notes to My Husband", "My Vagina Is Fine. Thanks for Asking", and "And Then I Snuck a Dead Cuban Alligator on an Airplane".
©2012 Jenny Lawson (P)2012 Penguin
"How the Bloggess almost made me crash my car!"
Oh, I do so adore The Bloggess! She has the most amazingly twisted and wonderful way of looking at the world that I've ever encountered. And since the audiobook is narrated by the woman herself, it makes the book that much better. She swears! She screams! She has silly asides! And to cap it all off, she has out-takes at the end! My only problem listening to this book is that I listen while I'm driving (I should have known better, probably), and there were several times I feared for my life, driving down the road with tears streaming, face contorted in laughter, afraid I'd crash the car at any moment. She's just that damned funny. BUY THIS AUDIOBOOK!
Commuting and writing from Northern California.
"OMG! Do NOT drive your car while listening!!"
The performance of the narrator is fantastic and so is the story line.
It's funny LOL, so much so tears were flowing and a tragic story, one that is all to familiar (well somewhat). I loved it so much, I bought copies for my friends and family.
Thank you for your witty story and voice to tell this. Much appreciated.
"Brand new fan"
Super fun, bright and refreshing. Jenny Lawson is like your best friend/alter ego with no filter, ADHD and a blogging problem who says the things that you are embarrassed to even think about. I loved every minute of it.
"Actually, not for fans of Sedaris and Fey"
I *really* wanted to like this book. Maybe diehard devotees of Jenny Lawson's blog might like it more than I. I thought some of her essays were great, but couldn't stand an entire book of her. It was just... too forced.
Probably not.
I would have trimmed a lot from the book as a whole. Jenny is witty and touching, but her sarcasm and schtick wore thin on me after the first half of the book. Her journey of self-awareness feels contrived and forced--- as if her editor told her that she had to summarize what she learned and how she grew from each anecdote. Her essay about miscarriage and living with chronic illness was really powerful and moving. Her father is fascinating, as is her upbringing. I would have liked to hear more about her parents.
And whoever told her to SING the chapter titles should be fired. That was just cringe-inducing.
"Like Mother Teresa, but better!"
Unicorn Success Club
I can recite the whole thing from memory.
I'm gonna have to go with her performance of Jenny Lawson, aka "the Bloggess." She nailed it.
I'm actually legally dead, having died of laughter. In lieu of flowers, buy this book.
This book is funnier than the Bible.
"Cute story, light entertainment."
Jenny's no Sarah Vowell or Tina Fey but the story is an enjoyable romp through her life. Not a rib splitter but rather a light, easy story with some fun and humorous interludes. This is one of those books that I can't imagine being read by other than the author and Jenny does a fine job of narration. I'd give it a 3.5 overall if that were allowed.
I've always found The Blogess's writing very funny, but a lot of that is because she says off-handed, unexpected things that I read as deadpan. Hearing her read it, however, Jenny Lawson is extremely self-aware of the "funny" moments, and says them in a tone like, "HEY GUYS, THIS PART IS FUNNY," which makes it totally unfunny and just ... irritating.
This is not a memoir so much as a collection of stories that the writer thinks are funny. In the end, I didn't feel like I learned anything, it just felt like a lot of cheap laughs sewn together. The only chapter I really liked was the one where she talked about her miscarriages because it was the only one that felt real and human, like there was a point behind the jokes and not just a bunch of funny or awkward moments. Also, she's a good writer, but the tangents drove the me crazy. Listening to this book was like listening to your most ADD friend try to tell stories, but by the middle of the story you've totally forgotten what you were talking about because you've landed somewhere else entirely. That style is funny at first, and it lends itself well to conversational-toned writing in general and blogging in particular, but when an entire book is like that, and especially when you're listening to it rather than reading it, it's extremely annoying.
"Better title: Redneck diaries, try to laugh once!"
I forced myself through the whole audiobook in the hopes that Jenny Lawson would make me smile or chuckle at least once. She did not. So I found the book a waste of time.
If you are interested in low-level humor or can identify yourself with tales of a crazy redneck with no real problems in her life, listen to this book!
"I almost drove off the road!"
Lawson's stories were hilarious! I admit, her freedom with the "f" word was a little much at times and some of it was pretty coarse, but I after awhile I got used to it and laughed so hard while we were driving home from California that I almost drove off the road. I was nearly in tears. I also appreciated the sadder stories and how she was able to find humor in the difficult times that life hands us. She is a master story-teller and in spite of the rough language my whole family (my husband and I and our adult kids) got a kick out of this book. I was a little embarrassed by some of the content, but the humor and the performance by the author made it pretty darn fun. The 20 hour drive from California to Colorado went by very quickly because of this laugh a minute romp through Jenny Lawson's life. Thanks for such a fun time!
A Girl Named Zippy by Haven Kimmel is a sweet memoir that I have listened to many, many times. It too is read by the author and the stories crack me up. Both Lawson and Kimmel are gifted story tellers. Kimmel's style is much more tame but no less enjoyable.
We all concur that the stories from when she worked in the HR department of a Christian organization were unreal. I also loved all the stories of her "taxidermied" (her word) critters.
If you are offended by harsh language, this book probably is not for you. Choose A Girl Named Zippy if you want a sweet memoir with heart and humor.
"This was supposed to be funny"
Maybe I'm just too picky about humor, or something. This didn't have punchlines so much as "no really... it's true... isn't my life crazy?!" And the stories didn't go anywhere. I gave up after a few chapters.
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.

My Reviews & Blog

They should have tossed Dethklok into this video,.....I mean,....might as well...
I have seen Slayer 11 times, and I would consider myself a diehard fan. I'm 49 years old, and have been listening to then for the better part of my life. I have turned my 15 year old son onto them, and have taken him to 2 shows,...he loves it! At the last show we saw them was in Portland Oregon on the "Hell on earth" tour with Zombie and Exodus.Read more

Organic neroli and lavender bar
The doctor is in! Therapy was our first therapeutic massage bar. What makes it so effective? We use our new aeration technique to blend Fair Trade organic cocoa butter with organic shea butter for a soft, light and smooth massage. All of the essential oils in Therapy are certified organic too; neroli oil, with its fresh happy orange scent and re-assuring lavender oil combine into a euphoric fragrance, which is especially wonderful when you have someone massaging it into your shoulders. Imagine that. Give Therapy a try and you'll feel better in no time.
- Organic Fair Trade Cocoa Butter: We buy the cocoa butter for this bar from the Peace Community in Colombia. This supports the self-sustaining farmers who are peacefully protesting the civil unrest in their country.
- New aeration technique: Our new technique makes Therapy lighter, smoother and more easily absorbed.

Federal Drive interviews - December 28
Friday - 12/28/2012, 3:32pm EST
This is the Federal show blog. Here you can listen to the interviews, find more information about the guests on the show each day and links to additional resources.
Today's guests:
Senior Research Fellow
George Mason University's Mercatus Center
The White House has just published a compilation of agencies' plans for new regulations. But the document has stirred controversy for a number of reasons, not least because it was published nine months late. Republican lawmakers have accused the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs of trying to hide those plans from the public.
Regulations expert Jerry Ellig, who served as acting director of the Federal Trade Commission's Office of Policy Planning under George W Bush and is now a senior research fellow at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University, joins The Federal Drive with his take.
RELATED STORY: Timing of Unified Agenda release draws criticism from Issa
National Treasury Employees Union
Employees at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau soon may get the chance to unionize. More than 30 percent of them say they want that opportunity, and the National Treasury Employees Union wants to represent them. NTEU President Colleen Kelley joins The Federal Drive to discuss what's ahead for the staff of this young and growing agency.
Portfolio Management Specialist
Department of Housing and Urban Development
It's hard to be the new kid. But at the Department of Housing and Urban Development, a group of employees known as the 'Under Five' is trying to make it a bit easier for incoming staff. One way is to improve relations between newcomers and oldtimers, says Charley Francis, a portfolio management specialist at HUD in Boston.
Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse
A new study shows the public is resorting to lawsuits more frequently to get the government to release records. Court complaints over the Freedom of Information Act have increased since President George W. Bush's term. It's surprising considering President Barack Obama has pledged to make government more transparent. Syracuse University's Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse collected the data. The co-director, David Burnham, joins The Federal Drive with more details.

S3TC in exchange for pushing their DRM, good deal, isn't it?
Phoronix: VIA Keeps Trying For Kernel Inclusion Of Its DRM
Last December the Linux folks at VIA Technologies had released their Chrome 9 series DRM code, which is needed for Linux 3D support with these newer-generation VIA IGPs, but this initial version ended up getting rejected from inclusion into the mainline kernel on the basis of the rest of VIA's 3D stack for the Chrome 9 being closed-source and some problems with the code itself. The situation was similar to that of Intel's Poulsbo DRM being rejected from reaching the mainline Linux kernel earlier this year. This July the Chrome 9 DRM was re-released with aspirations of getting it in the mainline Linux kernel, but it was virtually the same as December's version and it too got knocked down for inclusion on the basis of no open-source "clients" using this Direct Rendering Manager driver and security issues with the code itself. In August there was then another new VIA 2D driver released, but unlike the various other VIA Linux drivers out there, this one actually uses the new DRM code...
S3TC in exchange for pushing their DRM, good deal, isn't it?
It seems that Bruce uses a translation software?
Anyway, if there is a really good working free 2d driver and the drm code is also good, it should be integrated, shouldn't it?
I think Linus/whoever is responsible should accept their drm into the kernel. It's obvious that they're trying hard to get included, and if they'll be rejected again they might get frustrated and decide to drop their FOSS efforts altogether.
What FOSS efforts? There may be effort, but I have yet to see any results confirming that effort is being made. I recently junked my Via C7 mobo in favor of an Intel dual core Atom system, and it was a HUGE upgrade.
It should get included. They _are_ trying, and having it there would benefit users.
... for sure it will not benefit users at least not the long term, as it would lead to more companies blobs (one green light for this kind of inclusion and it means other are permited too). More blobs equals less secure and stable OS, if you want that you can always use windows blobland.
and well VIA has a "great" reputation among linux community so I'm sure VIA users are almost extinct here anyway.
What does the inclusion of drm actually give them?
Will it mean their binary driver will be less depended on the kernel version?
Providing a binary driver is not really considered 'effort' amongst the linux community is it?
Besides they are a rather marginal company now, so if they don't want to play by our rules, we can live without them. On the other hand by committing to a free driver or releasing specifications, they could gain a considerable following amongst linux users.

Motherskuktord was coined in South-West London area of Hounslow by one Bik (2007). The ideology focuses on the word mother and skunktord; which means the placenta. In essence, by referring to someone as a Motherskunktord, you are insulting the maternal connection they may posses.

Helpful Definition for: Brake Service
A motor vehicle is slowed down or stopped with the help of the 'Brake' device, which is a combination of interacting parts of the vehicle creating friction mechanism. At the time of normal driving conditions, a foot-operated brake is used for hindering, stopping and controlling the automotive vehicle. Air brakes in Cushing are used on heavy vehicles such as buses and trains, since those work by means of compressed air. However, emergency brakes are operated by the driver with his or her hand and the same is used in emergencies only. There are two types of wheel-brake mechanisms ; such as drum brakes and disk brakes. Drum brakes are used in older vehicles, and at the rear wheels of many vehicles, the front disk brakes are used.

Intriguing matchup finds Beckett dueling Leake
Dodgers righty makes first road start since no-hitter in Philadelphia
When the Dodgers and Reds have met in recent seasons, runs have often come at a premium.
Even with Monday's series-opening 6-2 win for the Dodgers, the two teams have now played one-run contests in six of their last eight meetings with each team taking four games.
There is no reason to think that trend might change when the teams play the second of four games Tuesday night in Cincinnati as the Dodgers send Josh Beckett (2.57 ERA) to the mound opposed by Mike Leake (3.29 ERA).
"Both teams know they're going to face good pitching in this series and have to take advantage of every scoring opportunity that you have," Reds manager Bryan Price said. "Sometimes it means you try to create a little bit more with hit and run and sacrifice bunt. Other times, you hope that one of your sluggers hits a three-run home run and makes that the difference."
Since 2012, the Dodgers and Reds have averaged 5.82 combined runs per game (99 runs in 17 games).
It won't get easier for either team Tuesday night. Beckett will be making his third start following his May 25 no-hitter against the Phillies, but hasn't slowed down. The 34-year-old veteran has allowed two runs in each of his last two starts, lasting five and six innings. Both times, though, the Dodgers lost 2-1. This will be his first road start since the no-hitter in Philadelphia.
"We're just not getting it done," Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said after Beckett's last outing. "Simple as that, right? Just not getting it done. We need to win, pretty much. We need to win."
With Monday's victory, the Dodgers (34-31) have now won three of the first four games on their seven-game road trip. The team's talent hasn't been lost on Price.
"We know they're a very talented club from what they did last year and the lineup and roster they have this year," Price said.
While Beckett has garnered headlines this season, Leake has been no slouch for the Reds. He has quality starts in eight of 13 outings this season, including all six May starts before allowing five runs in his first June start last time out.
Dodgers: Puig, Gordon return to action
Yasiel Puig returned to the Dodgers lineup Monday after sitting out Sunday's series finale in Colorado with a left hip pointer strain.
Puig sustained the injury while sliding into second base attempting to break up a double play on Saturday. The young outfielder has been an important cog in the Los Angles lineup, hitting .333 this season with 11 homers and 40 RBIs.
Meanwhile, second baseman Dee Gordon, who also left Saturday's game with a hip injury, wasn't in the team's lineup Monday, but singled as a pinch-hitter in the ninth inning. He should return to the starting lineup Tuesday.
"Dee was good. I think he was ready to play," Mattingly said before the game. "You just kind of figure with him getting another day, in this circumstance against a lefty, really just making sure he gets another day, making sure he's healthy."
Reds: Mesoraco gets night off during slump
A career-worst hitting slump was reason enough to give catcher Devin Mesoraco a night of rest on Monday against the Dodgers.
Mesoraco had gone 1-for-18 in the first six games of the homestand, including a current career-high 0-for-17 skid. The catcher is expected to be back in the Reds' lineup on Tuesday.
"We've been running him hard," Price said. "He's basically been four out of every five and [Brayan] Pena has been catching [Johnny] Cueto exclusively."
Worth noting
• Dodgers outfielder Andre Ethier is 5-for-12 (.417) with two homers and five RBIs against Leake.
• The Dodgers bullpen has allowed only two runs in 19 1/3 innings this month after tossing 3 1/3 scoreless innings Monday.
• Beckett is 1-2 with a 7.07 ERA in three career starts against the Reds, though his last one was good: On June 15, 2008, with the Red Sox, Beckett tossed seven shutout innings to get the win (six hits, six strikeouts and two walks).

Phoronix: AMD Publishes New SB Register, Programming Docs
While most of the time getting new documentation out of AMD is for their ATI graphics processors, today they have pushed out four documents that amount to several hundred pages of information covering their latest Southbridges. The AMD SB700/710/750 chipsets are now well documented in these NDA-free programming guides that also cover the registers for this hardware.Over at AMD Developer Central is the AMD SB700/710/750 Register Reference Guide, AMD SB700/710/750 BIOS Developerâ??s Guide, AMD SB700/710/750 Register Programming Requirements, and lastly is the AMD SB710 Databook.Sure, programming guides and register descriptions for a southbridge is not nearly as exciting as for the latest ATI GPU, but this information is what the CoreBoot developers (the same ones working on Flashrom) have been after for a while...
cheers AMD!
now we only need a company that focuses on tinkering a complete oss experience arround amd hardware...
something like the open source apple with hard+software that works together perfectly.
so you can get your pear (my imaginary company's name) computer and you know itll work perfectly with linux...
unlike other companies like acer or asus they dont have to sell crippled hardware with their linux computers, because they cant lose any microsoft partnership contracts....
haaaaaaa, in my imaginary world everything would be sooooooooooo fine...

Thanks AMD!
It's so nice to finally see more major hardware companies actually getting the point that widespread knowledge of how to use your hardware is good, and helps you sell more chips...
I work for a big semiconductor company, and have met many older managers who simply cannot come to terms with idea of giving anything away without strict conditions and renumeration, even if restricting information in the end hurts the company far more than any advantage it confers. There's a sort of ingrained conservatism and downright control-freakery that seems very hard to get rid of except though generational change.
Here it's mostly us old guys driving the open source support
This is so cool!
CoreBoot really is an important project that many don't care much about. Apparently also Michael
But it really is important to have an open source BIOS, as it is possible for the BIOS vendors to include a secret hyper visor that in "best case" "only" monitors what you do.
In "worst" case, it can forbid you from doing some things.
So CoreBoot really is important, and anything that helps that is exceeding good news
Also with CoreBoot you would be able to encrypt your harddrive, and have CoreBoot ask for the passphrase.
Working Coreboot on latest AMD boards would be very interesting for me - those docs will certainly help that. Intel docs seem to be very outdated, only very old chipsets are supported. As you can add custom payloads it should be really fun to use, hopefully the bios chip is on a socket
The most annoying thing about proprietary BIOSes in my opinion is that they are completely unpredictable in their use of SMIs (the so-called ring -2 that people get paranoid about). My old Sony laptop had random apparent hangs for as long as 10-20ms (fatal to the audio project I was trying to use it for). Downgrading its BIOS fixed the problem, which was caused by system management interrupts taking too long to give control back to the OS.
SMIs can be used for good, of course, like updating ACPI data, monitoring CPU temperature, and adjusting fan speed, but in a real operating system, I'd much rather do that using a low-priority preemptible thread than a realtime priority non-preemptible SMI.

Web Marketing: Bringing Together Form and Function
It recently occurred to me we have a struggle in our industry when it comes to utilizing the Web to its fullest potential. The challenge that seems to be facing so many of us is understanding the role a website plays in the day-to-day environment of a printing company. The same challenges exist across every type of printing company from digital printing, quick print, small commercial, and everything in between.
I am often asked, "Should my website be a marketing vehicle or should my website be a Web-to-print tool?" My answer is always a resounding "Yes." Your website should serve in both capacities, as a marketing vehicle that also facilitates workflow. As a matter of fact, in our studies, printing and graphic companies that are embracing the Web and using their websites as a marketing tool combined with Web-to-print (W2P) capabilities are seeing, on average, a 30 percent increase in revenue from existing clients. A 30 percent increase—that's no chump change! I don't know about you, but if I could see that kind of revenue from my existing clients I'd ask, "Where do I sign up?"
So what does it mean to have a marketing website with W2P technology? I like to think of it like a car. The marketing side of the website is the body (the sex and sizzle) that says you have to have me, while the W2P is the engine under the hood—the horsepower. After all, do we really want a good looking car that has no horsepower? On the other side, who wants a car with a lot of horsepower that doesn't look good?
What happens when these two concepts come together harmoniously? You've got the car of your dreams. Wait, we're talking about a marketing and W2P tool. On the marketing side you can begin to capitalize on how individuals, specifically print buyers, are using the Web. You can learn the trends that are shaping these buyer's habits in today's environment. When it comes to the W2P side, you have the ability to focus on your target audience and how they purchase your products and services every day. This allows you to focus on selling more, which leads to increased profitability.
Marketing Website
In order to make your website a marketing workhorse, it is important to realize the days of traditional marketing are gone. That's right—gone! Today's way of reaching your existing customers and potential customers is a culmination of old and new. Using components of traditional marketing (which includes direct mail, printed newsletters, and printed advertising) in combination with electronic forms of advertising (email marketing, social media and, of course, your website), you have further reach to existing customers as well as new ones.
Printed marketing materials drive people online, perhaps to a website, perhaps to a landing page with a special promotion. Electronic communication serves the same purpose (email marketing, search engine optimization, blogging, etc.). The magic formula to successful marketing in today's environment is in knowing how to reach your customers based on how they want to be communicated with. It sounds so simple, doesn't it?
Once you drive these wonderful print buyers to your website, what happens next? Does your website make them feel welcome, regardless of where they came from? Is it easy for them to find what they need? Surprisingly, the most common need of a print buyer who comes to your website is to get your phone number, address, and hours. If someone isn't looking for one of these three things, they may want to send you a file, learn about a product or service, or perhaps they want to log into their account.
While you have this captive audience, have you done what you can to market your company and cross promote the diversity of the services you offer? While most of us feel fairly confident knowing what our customers want, it never hurts to get their opinion. When asked, many customers are more than happy to share whether your website makes them feel welcome and if they would likely visit again.
These are the hurdles I find many printers experience when creating and or maintaining a marketing Web presence:
- One over-worked steward holds the key to managing the website, preventing updates from happening as often as desired.
- No one is completely trained on how to use the website, let alone understand its capabilities.
- The staff does not engage with the website on a regular basis and, if asked, may not know the content on the homepage.
- There is a lack of understanding of how SEO works to drive traffic to the website.
- Analytics are rarely looked at, if ever, to know how people are finding and engaging with the website. Analytics are that which can be managed can be measured.
W2P Website
W2P is what many view as the more technical side of the world. Some experience paralysis by analysis and avoid this topic altogether. There are many excuses as to why more printers aren't embracing W2P. Common reasons can range from "customers aren't asking for it" to "I don't have the human or financial resources to implement this technology". Or even worse, an investment has been made in the technology and the customer didn't embrace it, leaving the technology to sit idle with no return on the investment.
The truth is there is a technology that fits just about every printing company's size and budget. As for your customers not asking for it, I'll defer to Steve Jobs: "A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them."
Using your website as a W2P tool allows you to reduce a drain on your resources and incorporate your website into your business management strategy. This technology will set you apart from your competitors.
Integrating W2P into your marketing website allows you to offer something personalized and unique to each and every one of your customers. One misconception is that W2P means you sell printing online. That's not exactly true. W2P is technology that allows you to more easily facilitate orders (in many instances for items that you've already created for a client) directly into your workflow without requiring as much time from design and production. Reduced resources can often mean an increased profit.
Integrating your website into your business strategy and combining a marketing site with a W2P tool can help you build customer relationships that last. Every step that you can save in a low-margin process, or every customer you please by having a technological capability they want, leads to increased revenue and long term success.
At the end of the day your website is the core to all of the marketing that you do. It should be integrated into every aspect of your business to maximize the ROI, which drives profit to your bottom line. It's time to get your engine revved up.
