Do NOT Buy I thought I'd try this as a replacement to my old Dyson. I was sooo very disappointed. It doesn't pick up anything from the carpet; it's not bad on hardwood floors but for the price, it's not worth it. This ruined my opinion of Dyson; I may not buy another one of their products again which is too bad as I used to be a huge promoter of their products.

Always looses suction It worked 3-4 times. Now it stopped. Took it into a repair shop 2 times now. Would work for a few minutes and stop again. The motor runs but doesn't suck anything up. The chaimber is not swirling. Disapointed. Hard money spent and wasted.

Great product, works just like new! I jumped at the chance to own a Dyson but never wanted to buy retail so I was excited to see it for half the price here. It looked practically brand new out of the box. The canister had some marks on the plastic but from what I could tell it would not hurt performance so I let it go. I use to almost every day with my toddler son getting crackers all over the floor. I picks up well, I sometimes have to go over larger items again because it seems it just pushes it instead of sucking it up. Minor inconvenience. It's extremely light and easy to maneuver. Very to easy to clean the canister. We have 2 cats, 1 long haired and it always fills the canister with fur. Overall happy purchase.

Awesome vacuum! This is the second refurbished Dyson vacuum I'v bought from Overstock. When I saw the deal on this, I jumped. Even though my old Dyson still works great, in a home with 5 pets, I liked the idea of even more power to keep that pet hair at bay. Now I keep one downstairs and one upstairs. Truly a great machine.

Great Purchase I love the refurbished Dyson! A great way to save a few hundred bucks and still get a great machine. My only "complaint" would be that the ball really heats up, and sometimes when using the wand attachments you need to prop your leg against the ball to make it stay in one place. Other than that, it's a great purchase! I have to empty the canister often, but I don't mind because it's just proof of how much dirt it sucks up.

Efficient small vacuum I will admit that I buy items based on design AS WELL AS efficiency. The Dyson was rated well, and I was tired of big, clunky, ugly, short-lived vacuums. So I bought this 14 lb, "animal", unusual looking vacuum. It performs PERFECTLY, empties its load of cat hair EASILY, stores nicely and can be easily carried between floors. I have found no defects or problems. However, it does seem awfully delicate, and so light. I am hoping that the new materials used in products today are light but sturdy. I have used my Dyson for over a month and it is still a dream. I did get the extra warrantee as I bought a refurbished machine. But you can't at all tell that it isn't brand new and perfect. This is my second Dyson. I bought the "stick" vacuum (no cord, battery charged) for my vacation condo. It is working perfectly after almost a year. Small dirt containers, but not a problem for me. In both houses I vacuum wall to wall carpeting, large throw rugs as well as wood and tile flooring.

Powerful vac but the beaterbar gets hair stuck on We have two collies and my husband and I both have long hair so there is plenty of hair at our house! The beaterbar tends to get hair wrapped around it and I have to go in with a scissors to clean it off every time. Maybe that would happen with any vac. It is certainly powerful and gets a lot of dirt up. I don't mind having to empty the canister often because it means all that dirt is coming out of my floors! It is also easy to see when it is getting full. There is a small attachment with a beaterbar that is very good for carpeted stairs.

Questions & Answers
Hello thaghost87, Thank you for your question, Here is the general information for the platinum protection plan http://www.overstock.com/warrantyPage?pro_id=3419237 and the terms and conditions can be found here: https://help.overstock.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/41#PlatinumTC Hope this helps, thanks for shopping with us!
What is an Overstock exclusive? Special price? Special addons?
Hello danieldaniel2, this is usually limited time offer at a certain price. Thanks for shopping with us!
What's accessories are inclunded?
extension hose and three attachments, furniture brush (two items) and dust brush for the extension hose.
What is the return procedure in case the vacuum got damage and required to send back to overstock to fix?
Hello duang, a refurbished item has the same return policy as a new product from Overstock. You will have 30 days to return the product from the time of delivery. You can read all information regarding returns by clicking on the "Shipping and Returns" tab on the product page. Thank you for shopping with us.
Does this product also have a built-in hose and telescopic wand, like the DC40 Origin? From the pictures, it looks like it does; however, in the answer to an earlier post on 11/29/13, you state that "... The DC40 Origin has a built-in hose and telescopic wand that can be pulled ... No bending down or dials to adjust when moving." Does that mean that the DC40 Animal does not have that? Thank you.
Thank you for shopping with us re7777. The telescopic wand is still part of the vacuum. Have a great day.
It has an attached hose that can be pulled out for use. The unit came with attachments for the hose.
what is the warranty on this product?
Hi kjph, this has a 180 day manufacturers warranty. Thanks for shopping with us.
Paperwork states a six month warranty.
Why does it seem like the dyson is losing suction, the hose towards the top of handle is open and is losing a lot suction.
If the vac is in upright position, it makes the hose work. If you angle the handle towards you, it makes the bottom part run. Also, red button on is for bottom, and silver button turns of bottom and starts hose, I think.....
The hole is only open when the vacuum is totally upright(so the hose w/ the crevice tool etc. can be used). When the handle is tilted back to vacuum using the beater bar, the hole closes and no suction is lost.
my dyson is only working in unlocked position when sitting straight up it wont turn on what is the problem
Thank you for shopping with us brooke429. Here is the link to support for this machine. Have a good day. http://www.dyson.com/support/dc40/dc40-animal
The reviews were all great on this item. Why are we all having issues?
I just want to join the discussion to be able to read the answers.
I just purchased my refurbished overstock Dyson a few days ago and did not purchase the extended plan...actually didn't view it and it defaulted to decline protection. Can I still purchase the 3yr plan? My item has already shipped and should be delivered in a few days. Thank you!
Hello tashamarieconnects, You can purchase the protection plan up to 10 days after original purchase date. Please let us know if you have any additional questions. I hope this helps you!
I see continually it has a 180 Manufacturer Warranty, is that 180 "days"/6 months and does that cover parts and labor? When you purchase new they come with a 5 yr warranty parts/labor.
Hello tashamarieconnects, This refurbished item includes 180 days of warranty time from the manufacturer. Should an issue arise outside of our standard 30 day return time frame it would be necessary to contact the manufacturer for the warranty details. Thanks for shopping with us!
Any guess on the most likely cause of vacuum needing to be refurbished? Does the ten year warranty on Dysons apply?
Hello katiembrowne, Thank you for inquiring about the Dyson DC40 Animal Upright Vacuum Cleaner (Refurbished)- Overstock Exclusive. This has a 180 Manufacturer warranty and you have the option to buy an extended protection plan. Thank you for shopping with us! There are several reasons for an item being refurbished.

What is the difference between DC40 Origin and DC40 Animal,these seems to have same suction power , is one a older model
Hello harryp78, thank you for your interest in the Dyson DC40 Animal Upright Vacuum Cleaner (Refurbished) item #15274827. One big difference in the two is DC40 Animal lets you clean closely around furniture, with less pushing and pulling ... The DC40 Origin has a built-in hose and telescopic wand that can be pulled ... No bending down or dials to adjust when moving. Thank you for shopping with Overstock.com.
Does it have a cup to empty out the dirt, or use bags?
no, you press a red button on the canister,it empties the dirt through the bottom
Hi What is the voltage for DC40? Will it work in Australia? Here it is 240V. Thanks
Hello brisbanite, this will work but you will need to use a converter. Thank you for shopping with us.
what is the packaging like on the refurbished vacuum? Does it ship in a new orginal dyson box sealed? Thanks!
Thank you for shopping with us jlore83. It comes in a brown box from the factory that does the refurbishing. It is very clean and boxed to ship. Have a great day.
The packaging is a tall, brown cardboard box, Very sturdy. I don't recall the Dyson name being on the packaging however. The items inside are package and protected neatly too.
There is a label on the exterior of the tall brown box telling you what's inside. There is no direction manual so call Dyson to send to you.
Just received my refurb. DC40 Animal from Overstock.com; it did include a basic Dyson manual. The packaging is as can be expected from a new Dyson, except that the box is a plain brown cardboard finish with a single plain label on the end-flap. The interior cardboard pieces are specific for this vacuum and very well packed.
What is the air watts for the dc40?
Hello duckkisser13, thank you for your interest in the Dyson DC40 Animal Upright Vacuum Cleaner (Refurbished)- Overstock Exclusive. The air watts is 200. Thank you for shopping with us, and have a great day!
What are the details of the protection plan
Hello, zooboy82. Hope your day is going well. For complete information please access the blue warranty box (upper right of page) and click on both plans. Thank you for shopping with us and please feel free to contact us again with any further questions.
Were these DC40s refurbished by Dyson? Thanks
Hi yutangclan, yes these are refurbished by Dyson. Thanks for your interest, hope this helps!
I believe the description says factory refurbished, especially since it has a Dyson refurbished warranty--I'd imagine it would have to be.
Does the power nozzle brush turn off for bare floors?
Hi crossford, you cannot turn off the brush. Thanks for your interest, hope this helps!
When I go from carpet to bare floor it is unlike any other vacuum I have used. It doesn't blow dirt around and doesn't lose suction. I no longer sweep I vacuum everything! I dropped dirt on the kitchen floor the other day and decided to give the Dyson a try to see how it would pick up, it left a trail through the dirt the exact width of the vacuum and it picked EVERYTHING up in one sweep!
Photo shows model in purple which is my preference but every other place I have seen this model it is always shown in orange. Can you guarantee me the one I will receive is purple? thanks!
I think the color is the difference between the "animal" model and just the regular one....either way, mine was purple, and my mother who also ordered it got purple.
Mine was purple as well. My friend told me that the colors change as the models vary in specialty.

When technology changed, Ali Koushan realized he needed to change as well. Video Paradise, long a staple of Dedham Center, needed to adapt to survive.
"I had to reinvent myself and recreate myself," Koushan said.
In 2008, the store reopened as Paradise Cafť, a coffee bar that serves soups, panini and various pastries. Since then, they have added live music every Friday and Saturday, as well as a beer and wine license.
"A coffee shop needs music," Koushan said.
Paradise Cafť is located at 565 High St., Dedham. It is open from 8 a.m. to 8:30 p.m., Sunday to Thursday, and 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., Friday and Saturday, though live music often extends past 10:30 p.m. those nights. They can stay open past midnight if necessary, as the operating license allows them to remain open until 1 a.m.
For more information on the Paradise Cafť, including upcoming events, visit their Facebook page, facebook.com/paradisecafededham.
Q: What is one of the top sellers at the Paradise Cafť?
A: People often come in and ask for "that" sandwich. They walk in, but donít know the name of it, only that it has something to do with Thanksgiving. Theyíve heard there is something good in here, and we all know what it is. Our Turkey Stuffing Panini is the best. It features mayo-cranberry sauce, stuffing, turkey and cheese on toasted bread, though the cheese is optional.
Q: What is your favorite type of coffee?
A: My favorite is cappuccino, on top of everything else, but our ice coffee is amazing. We call it the No. 12, and thatís because we brew it for 12 hours from cold spring water. Our customers will stop short as they are leaving and say, ĎThis is amazing!í When youíre a coffee drinker, you donít necessarily need anything else, like sugar, because you love the taste of coffee. Itís like a good chocolate that just melts in your mouth.
Q: Who has been your favorite to perform at Paradise Cafť?
A: I love music, and I love all of them. One in particular is Steve Marchena. If you cut his vein, he bleeds music. He performed at our (live music) opening night two years ago, and that went really well. He has a passion for music, and I love hearing him play classical guitar. He has been here quite a few times.
Q: Why should people check out the Paradise Cafť?
A: The warm welcome and customer service is my biggest thing. We care about our customers, we appreciate them, and weíd like them to enjoy the warm atmosphere we have there, have a panini and a drink, and enjoy the live music. I hope people can come in and be comfortable. I think we are very cozy and comfortable.
Page 2 of 2 - Q: What is one of the best treats at the Paradise Cafť?
A: A lot of people around here, when you say Paradise Cafť, say ĎOh my God, their scones.í Our scones are just unbelievable. We have cranberry, currant/raisin and chocolate. Cranberry is the big seller.

Tuesday, May 06, 2008
I had a visitor once, a young aspiring decorator, who told me candidly that my living room gave him a headache."I don't understand your theme," he said, wincing.
Well, Mary, there ain't no theme. If I like it, I hang it on the wall. If it has a happy association for me, I hang it on the wall. If it makes me want to pick up a pen and draw, or sit down at the keyboard and type, I hang it on the wall. You're not going to see my apartment in Homosexual Interiors magazine, except possibly on the "Yikes!" page, but it keeps me going.
Working on the little book has made me understand for the first time that if I'm cut off from stimulation, I stop producing. At one point I tried to go the monastic route, with life reduced to barest necessities and all extraneous matter removed. For a week, all I made were doodles of little, pinched faces that got angrier and angrier; and finally a picture of a lady kicking a cat down the stairs.
So I relaxed, and let myself indulge in other stuff–like really, really bad late-Victorian chick lit. Here's the latest gem on the bedside table: Polly: A New-Fashioned Girl by L.T. Meade. I picked this up at a bookshop in the neighborhood for a pittance, attracted by the cover art (shown left), the title, and my previous experience with other titles by the author.
Polly is a "new fashioned" girl. What could that mean? According to the flyleaf inscription the book was a Christmas present for "Violet from Mamma" in 1900, so it could mean Polly shows her bare ankle to the butcher's boy, or joins the Suffragettes, or travels to the Middle East and converts to Islam.
Well, I'm about a third of the way through Polly and I'm still befuddled. Nothing remotely new-fashioned has happened yet. Polly's mother dies on page six, as most good mothers do in these books. It's such a common plot twist that as soon as I see an angelic mommy surrounded by an adoring brood, I automatically assume the Grim Reaper is crouched behind the pianola sharpening his blade.
Polly and her twenty-three siblings are left carry on with their father (a good doctor, but apparently a lousy obstetrician) and a handful of servants. Dr. Daddy is worried about the kids running wild, since he is constantly being called out to preside over other childbed deaths in the neighborhood. He says that if his eldest daughter can't keep house he's going to hire a governess.
The children, who have all read "The Turn of the Screw," understandably freak out. I've reached a point in the tale where Polly, anxious to do her bit, has begun to order the servants around according to cockeyed notions gathered from old cookbooks. It's not going well. Breakfast is a mess; and on top of everything else it turns out that father is going blind.
I can hardly wait to find out what happens next. Maybe new-fashioned Polly will attempt to save his sight by performing emergency surgery on the dining room table, using her copy of Mrs Beeton and dead mama's embroidery scissors.
I sure hope so.
And Some Knitting
I also decided that if you're writing a knitting book, knitting counts as research and development. So I'm still tapping away to finish up the essays, but I've also started Sharon Miller's Wedding Ring Shawl.
The picture shows the eighth patterned row of the 300+ in the center square. After that, there's a very deep (63 row) border knit around and around the center, followed by a sideways edging. So I won't be able to show you a picture of the finished piece until at least next Tuesday.
The best part is the temporary cast-on in pink acrylic DK yarn, which makes it look like I'm working a misbegotten pink-and-red baby blanket for a kid named Valentine.

You know something Franklin, you may have shone some light on why I haven't been knitting, or working with the 50 some odd pounds of various types of clay,or doing anything more to my drafting table than piling clean clothes on it. I've somehow managed to cut myself off from anything inspiring (other than your blog of course!) Well, there's no time like directly after work to get back into the swing of things! I've enjoyed the various peeks you've allowed your readers into your home. I've always admired the things i've seen in there! No "yikes!" from this quarter!!! :) And... let us know how Polly handles the extra stressors of running a home, with an ailing Papa without the benefit of having a prescribed antidepressant!

I enjoy your posts, but especially so today when I read, "It's such a common plot twist that as soon as I see an angelic mommy surrounded by an adoring brood, I automatically assume the Grim Reaper is crouched behind the pianola sharpening his blade."
Damn I needed that laugh! - 1:00 PM

Grim Reaper...always makes me think of Salmon Mousse. Hopefully, new Polly won't have any recipes for such!
- MN_PJ said...
Mrs. Beeton herself would approve of your taking up your knitting, since she states that 'to be a good housewife does not necessarily imply an abandonment of proper pleasures or amusing recreation.'
It is then necessary for the housewife to experiment with mixing proper and improper pleasures until she finds the proper/improper ratio that pleases her. - 1:24 PM

I love me some bad Victorian/Edwardian chick lit. Even stuff from the 20s and 30s counts, although it's not quite as much fun.
Your description of Polly had me rolling on the floor.
I sure hope her surgical skills are up to the operation. - 1:36 PM

My living room is supposed to have a theme? I think my theme is "I haven't gotten around to buying furniture since I graduated from college and took all the free furniture I could find." Oh, and "two huge geeks live here."

I heart your notions of decor. And your literary taste.
My cousin and I have both on occasion been addressed as "Auntie Overstimulation" - not by the children we've been playing with, either.
As for Polly, she sounds an awful lot like a cross between Katy Carr and Ellen Montgomery. Probably not a coincidence, in one direction or the other. I think I need to find those books.

About lace...I am enthralled. Entranced. I have bought extraordinarily beautiful cashmere/silk from colourmart and deep purple merino from Skacel. I've chosen patterns. I've cast on for swatches. I can't count. I can't work more than 2 rows without gaining a stitch or losing a stitch. Is there a secret? Is it goooiiinnnggg reeeaaalllyyy ssllloowwwlllyyy? What?

Our house is "decorated" in things that make us smile. The artwork on the walls is mostly crayon drawings the children have drawn. My daughter's room is probably the only one that has close to a theme and that theme would be pink. If the house was matchy matchy I'd probably get nothing creative done.
That book sounds like a fun read. You must tell us more about Polly.
I'll be looking for a photo of the finished shawl next Tuesday :) - 3:56 PM

A friend of mine has her advanced degree in English Lit, focusing on Victorian literature...she gave me an appreciation of reading books from that time...but nothing like your blog entry. I want to do nothing else at the moment than scour local used book stores for little Polly stories.

An old-fashioned girl would have fainted dead away, you see. Polly is new-fashioned because she's actually doing something other than reaching for the smelling salts. {sigh}

Have you ever seen one of those "declutter to be happy" type of tv shows? Now I am sure it is nice to have a space of minimalism when you need to destress, but living without stuff everywhere else? How would anyone be creative?

Chien-Ming Wang was enjoying a strong start before suffering his injury.
Right-hander Chien-Ming Wang was forced out of today's Grapefruit League game in Viera after an awkward stumble and fall trying to beat Yankees batter Russell Martin to first base on a third-inning grounder.
The Nationals announced Wang's injury as a left hamstring strain but did not immediately say how much time, if any, the veteran pitcher might miss.
Wang hurt himself after fielding a slow roller to the right of the mound off Martin's bat. With first baseman Chad Tracy also attempting to make the play, Wang was forced to run himself to the bag and try to beat Martin there. But the pitcher tripped as he approached the base and suffered a nasty spill (though he did manage to touch the bag with his hand and retire Martin).
Though he did appear to be smiling as he sat on the ground, Wang leftRead more »

Blessing in disguise? Lannan starts the season in the rotation, pitches lights out b/c he's got a chip on his shoulder, increases his trade value, and we get a nice asset in return for lannan once CMW recovers.
- Mike Hall - Mar 15, 2012 at 6:52 PM
And that's why Lannan is still on the team.

- Section 222 - Mar 15, 2012 at 7:05 PM
Not so sure that Lannan is assured of spot in the rotation even if Wang is injured. Detwiler is also competing, and DJ likes Matheus for the pen. Lannan could still end up in AAA for a bit.
- John C. - Mar 15, 2012 at 7:05 PM
CMW should not be allowed off the mound. He's a danger to himself and others when he tries to run around!

Been saying for 4 weeks, that somehow some way Lannan would be our #5 starter and I still think he will.I don't dislike CMW. And I certainly don't wish him any harm. In fact, I'd like to see him pitch lights out like he appeared on his way to doing. Except a lot of us have been waiting for the other shoe to drop with him, and it just did. Now he needs to carefully rehab–even if it's not too serious–b/c of the tendency to adjust his mechanics to offset whatever he just tweaked, which is what got him into the deep trouble with his shoulder in the first place a few years ago.I think they'll put him on the DL, start Lannan, keep Det in the BP and in a strange sort of way, consider themselves lucky that they didn't have to send Lannan to Cuse and insult him (not that he shouldn't have gone quietly). As for Det–he might be the power lefty of the future, but they want to see him come out of the pen for now.I'm curious what others think about what Detwiler's long term role is with the Nats. Is it in the BP? Or do they envision him back in the starting lineup someday? Do they want him to build up, muscle-wise? Or what? It's weird b/c if he's successful in the pen why move him? But if he's not successful in the pen, why give him another chance starting? I think he's still going to be a real good power lefty for us, I just don't see the path it's going to take getting him there.A pat on the back for all the hold onto Lannan posters. Patience can be a good thing.
- Section 3, My Sofa - Mar 15, 2012 at 8:05 PM
try that again:Just saw the replay of the Wang injury–golly, that looked awkward. Lucky he didn't break his ankle.Come to think of it, wasn't his first catastrophic injury to his foot, not his shoulder?
- Section 3, My Sofa - Mar 15, 2012 at 8:08 PM
from NJ:"In June 2008, Wang partially tore a tendon in his right foot and badly sprained his right ankle, which sidelined him for the remainder of that season. The injury led to altered mechanics when he returned in 2009, which contributed to his right shoulder capsule tear."

Strasburg is interesting. You'd never want to be the next team he faces after a bad outting. He's pretty predictable and nasty that way. But will he find the consistent excellence everyone expects from him–that he expects most of all. Or should we expect a few of 12-14 win seasons first?

- Oldguy - Mar 15, 2012 at 8:39 PM
I saw Harper last night and today. He has not looked good at all. In fact, he looks exactly like what he is–a 19-year-old kid fighting like hell to make the team. He seems hurried and impatient at the plate. We were saying in the stands that he never saw a pitch he didn't like. But he did take a few in his later at bat today–guess somebody told him to try and relax. Actually, I don't think this is necessarily bad news. If he cools off he won't be cheesed off at not making the team and may learn some patience at Syracuse. For all his skill, he just doesn't seem quite ready to take out of the oven. Needs to cook another 30 minutes.

The Unit.
- realdealnats - Mar 15, 2012 at 8:46 PM

- MicheleS - Mar 15, 2012 at 8:49 PM
realdeal & Anon.I always thought the Unit had solid legs because he generated so much of his power from that. I think Det needs to put some weight on to build up the stamina and stay in the games longer. Always seemed like he putters out…
- ehay2k - Mar 15, 2012 at 8:55 PM
Looking at the replays of Wang's tumble, it looked like he first (hyper-extended his left knee (which would tweak the hamstring), then he caught himself on his right leg, but when he next put down his left, the knee looked to almost buckle, and the ankle rolled over. Very frightening and it could have been a LOT worse.So, CMW starts on the DL (didn't NatsFan1a or Michele, or NatsLady predict this very scenario?) That means Lannan may make the rotation after all (needed a lefty anyway), and it means that you still can't have too many pitchers because we are only halfway through ST.
- bdrube - Mar 15, 2012 at 8:56 PM
From the Bleacher Report, something we would be discussing had Rizzo not made the Gio trade:None of the cuts should surprise on a team so young, but A's fans probably expected more from Brad Peacock.The former Nats farmhand has better stuff than fellow import Tom Milone, but his spring has been a disaster. He's allowed five earned runs and seven hits through his first 4.2 innings and can see a rotation spot slipping away with each setback.The good news is that with such much youth around him, Peacock has a longer leash than most rookies in his positions. The bad news is that he hasn't done much with that leash yet.
- MicheleS - Mar 15, 2012 at 9:01 PM
Looks like some roster moves were made today. Eury down to AA, Maya to AAA, more to come they got down to 41

Watching MASN now, really do we have to see it over and over again
- realdealnats - Mar 15, 2012 at 9:05 PM
MicheleS, I actually do agree with you about Detwiler and his needing strength. He loses stamina and thus control in the later innings. I do think he is on his way to mastering batters the second time through the lineup, though. A separate but related problem? So do you think Rizzo or Davey are outlining a strength plan for him while he's in the pen? Or who knows?
- SonnyG10 - Mar 15, 2012 at 9:10 PM
Agree with the above assessments. As realdealnats says above, it took a while for Randy to become dominant and that's what I hope for Det. Harper was swinging the bat so hard it looked like he was trying to pulverize the ball. Bob and FP said he normally swings that way though.
- MicheleS - Mar 15, 2012 at 9:11 PM
realdeal.. I think it is the "Or Who Knows". I would have thought he would have done some off season conditioning to build it up. But it could be he was doing it and we just haven't seen the physical manifistation of it. He could be one of the freaks that does the workouts and doesn't build bulk no matter how hard he tries.
- MicheleS - Mar 15, 2012 at 9:15 PM

March 15, 2012 5:05 PM _______________________________When you start losing your stamina you start trying to overthrow to keep up the velo and that usually leads to your ball coming in like a BP fastball.Detwiler had a reputation about getting beat up 2nd time through the order. I think he now can't make it through the 6th inning consistently.

any bullet points MicheleS about that crazy talk.

FS..You know how they did the CMW/Lannan split today, they talked about doing that in season, not just with CMW/Lannan, but with Stras and JZ as well and then they thought we could mix in a 6 man rotation on top of that.
- Rabbit - Mar 15, 2012 at 10:22 PM
Watching Harper lately, he really should start at AAA. Too bad for Wang. The only thing that is going to hurt us worse than Wang being injured is Lannan pitching uninjured!
- realdealnats - Mar 15, 2012 at 10:32 PM
So Gonat, do you think he's made some progress and makes it through the front end of the batters second time around? And is getting hit at the tail end of their lineups 2nd time through? Or not much progress at all except for a flukey short lived September stretch?

Wang=reason to keep Lannan; Lannan=reason to keep Wang healthy.Speaking of power pitchers, freaks and Detwiler('s frame), Lincecum is a shorter version of Detwiler (physically).
- Anonymous - Mar 16, 2012 at 1:50 AM
Detwiler has also been pitching well. Don't make Mark's mistake of penciling Lannan in to the top of the rotation yet. Lannan may be the 6th starter but if they get Wang back look for John Lannan to be shopping at the Wegman's in Camillus.
- Section 3, My Sofa - Mar 16, 2012 at 1:37 PM
Theo, I see what you mean, but Lincecum's delivery is so different I'm not sure there's much comparison to draw, really, with Detwiler. But then I'm not a big fan. Sorry, Ross, nothing personal.

Terrific Fit
I just bought about 10 items from TL. Out of all of them, this sweater was my fav! I put the black long-sleeved perfect tee underneath, and absolutely loved it! It fits true to size. The tan is darker than it appears online (I ordered the tan with black stripes), and I'm glad.
January 10, 2013
Flattering sweater
I was skeptical to purchase this top initially but after reading the reviews, I thought I'd give it a try! I'm glad I did because it is my new favorite top! The color is great (khaki and black) and the quality is good! The fit is very flattering, it's a loose fit but not too loose that it makes you look large. The style looks really good on! It's a great top to wear with dress pants to work or jeans on a casual evening out!

Love This Item
The overall comfort and fit of this sweater was awesome. It was comfortable and the fabric was great.

Easy go to item
I have this same sweater from last season in burgundy and was very happy to see it in the black/khaki strip! Such an easy go to item. I like to layer it with a long sleeve underneath!

November 28, 2012
Great - a looser fit than expected
I love this sweater. I will be honest and say that the fit is a bit looser than I was led to believe based on other reviews. It looks fitted and cute in the picture, but I got the XS (I'm 5'4", 125/130 lbs) and it seems a bit baggy/a little frumpy.

Top Definition
South Florida clubbers who have an overwhelming preoccupation with house music and afterhours partys. Characterized by a disturbing lack of taste, unappealingly tight clothing (including printed skintight tshirts and Diesel jeans on boys), ecstasy and ketamine abuse and no life direction. Often spotted in the wild at Shine, Nocturnal, Wednesday's at Voodoo Lounge, and the terrace at Club Space.
"Dude, why did you dump that girl? She was skinny and easy." "She was one of those cooljunkies. She wouldn't shut up about Boris and wore sunglasses at night to much. I couldn't take it!"

The Nats need to beat Josh Johnson tonight to avoid a series sweep.
MIAMI — Not that you ever want to put yourself in a position where you need to win a series finale on the road to avoid being swept, but the Nationals' current predicament is especially daunting. Not only do they need to win tonight against a Marlins club they've lost seven straight and 41 of 55 against, but they need to do it against their ace.
Josh Johnson (career 7-0, 3.27 ERA) starts for Florida, five days after he carried a no-hitter into the seventh inning on Opening Day against the Mets. He'll be opposed by John Lannan, who also pitched well in his season debut but is 2-3 with a 5.34 ERA in six career starts against the Marlins.
As expected, Wilson Ramos is behind the plate for the Nats. As was not expected, he's batting fifth behind Adam LaRoche. Michael Morse (2-for-17 to begin the season) is on the bench, with Laynce Nix starting in left field and batting eighth.
Meanwhile, up in Rome, Ga., tonight, Bryce Harper and the Hagerstown Suns take the field for the first time this season. I'll provide some updates from that game (which starts at 7 p.m.) within this game thread, so be sure to check back for that…

Riggs and the gang may as well chug down Margarittas and Screwdrivers for lunch so they can stomach tonight's route.
- JamesFan - Apr 7, 2011 at 7:37 PM
Tough one tonight. Does any manager in baseball flip his starting lineup like Riggs? I guess we'll find out if Nix is "overmatched" by Josh Johnson. If Ramos hits the ball hard against Johnson, will Pudge start tomorrow?
- joemktg - Apr 7, 2011 at 7:42 PM
"If Ramos hits the ball hard against Johnson, will Pudge start tomorrow?"If Ramos hits the ball hard against Johnson, he'll be batting cleanup tomorrow.

Wow, nice diving catch by Nyjer Morgan in right field! Opps, he's now playing for the Milwaukee Brewers. Sorry! Wow, Manny Acta sweeps three games from Big, Bad Boston! Opps, Manny now manages the Cleveland Indians! Sorry! Where are those guys when the Nats need them the most?!?!?! Oh, I know, GONE!
- The Joker - Apr 7, 2011 at 7:50 PM
Yes, I know I misspelled rout. But more fun and games for Riggs. Why not bat Cora lead-off to start but do a double switch in the bottom of the first with Desmond put in at short but put in the seventh spot for starting second baseman Hairston while Espinosa assumes the first spot and plays second. That'll shock the Marlins' manager out of his socks for sure and take him off his managerial game.
- erocks33 - Apr 7, 2011 at 7:52 PM
Let's hope that Lannan can channel his inner Levale Speigner for tonight's matchup versus Josh Johnson.
- The Joker - Apr 7, 2011 at 7:52 PM
Another cool Riggs joke. Have Desmond and Espinosa switch positions every new inning. That'll befuddle those confused sailfish wannabes.
- John O'Connor - Apr 7, 2011 at 7:54 PM
When you have a left fielder batting eighth, you must have one heckuva catcher and set of middle infielders. So all must be well.
- P. Cole - Apr 7, 2011 at 8:30 PM
Lots of Riggleman haters out here today. But it doesn't matter what your lineup is if NOBODY CAN HIT THE BALL.
- Jokin' Jimmy - Apr 7, 2011 at 8:34 PM
Riggs should juggle his line-up like little league. Have Hairston, Nix, Stairs, Cora and Rodrgiguez play the first three innings and then have Espinoza, Morse, LaRoche, Desmond and Ramos take over in the fourth. Everybody plays.
- JamesFan - Apr 7, 2011 at 8:41 PM

- LoveDaNats - Apr 7, 2011 at 9:40 PM
This familiar feeling about my Nats is starting to worry me. I watched the Phillies home opener on Friday. Phillies were down 5-0 in the 7th. They got 2 then proceeded to play small ball in the bottom of the 9th until the final score was 6-5 Phillies. What is it that the Nats lack that doesn't allow them to play like that and come from behind? Is it a mindset or lack of talent? I can't believe the latter since almost everyone is a talented athlete, they just can't seem to do it at the same time. It's discouraging and demoralizing. And I'm talking about for the fans. I was a Riggleman supporter but am now wondering if some of you just might be right. JaneB….I can't get that quote from the scout in Fla. out of my head "No offense is no offense". *Sigh* Thanks for listening to the rant.
- SonnyG10 - Apr 7, 2011 at 9:44 PM
Time to win one tonight. Nats hitters are going to break out and the pitching and defence will be outstanding. Drinking the cherry flavored Kool-Aid.

@sonnyG10Pass it over.

I asked a long-time Cubs beat writer about Riggleman, and he said "Get him some talent."Maybe Riggleman's like Joe Torre–nice guy, very successful in one particular situation, but otherwise, pretty average.

"I asked a long-time Cubs beat writer about Riggleman, and he said "Get him some talent."I agree. Get him some managerial talent. But how the hell do you do that?

LoveDaNats said…"They got 2 then proceeded to play small ball in the bottom of the 9th until the final score was 6-5 Phillies."Six singles is not the definition of small ball. Small ball is an attempt to manufacture a run or two while giving up outs.

My bad…..

Anybody know how best to get the radio feed of the Harperstown game tonight? I'm using a Mac made in this decade, so the Suns' options of RealAudio and WinAMP aren't really cutting it for me…

How will we win without Mickey Morse?
- Will - Apr 7, 2011 at 11:29 PM
Love Carpenter's "Coulda Been Worse!" …can we make this the new Nats marketing slogan?

Bunt…Ramos to Desmond………looked out at 2nd to me!

Lady Antebellum to Bryce Harper – " We need you now"
- RickH - Apr 8, 2011 at 12:49 AM
Hmmm … 3-2 Nats in the 6th. I need to look up the definition of "rout." Must mean something other than what I thought.
- Natsochist - Apr 8, 2011 at 12:57 AM
@RickH not if Ankiel's give has anything to say about it.
- Phil Dunn - Apr 8, 2011 at 12:58 AM
Ankiel=Nyjer. There goes the ball game,
- Wally - Apr 8, 2011 at 1:15 AM
C'mon people. No comments about Hairston instead of Morse?
- phil dunn - Apr 8, 2011 at 1:15 AM
The Nats, with four hits tonight, now have a team batting average of .203 for the season. Anyone think Rick Eckstein deserves a raise?
- Anonymous - Apr 8, 2011 at 1:20 AM
Where is JayB and his 82 wins prediction for the season? Maybe he's rooting for the Orioles.
- phil dunn - Apr 8, 2011 at 1:37 AM
Morse is looking more and more like Pudge with the bat. At this rate, he will be on his way to Syracuse soon.
- Smatt1001 - Apr 8, 2011 at 2:13 AM
Oh Desi…why did you have to try and steal third?
- Smatt1001 - Apr 8, 2011 at 2:24 AM
And there goes LaRoche!!!
- sjm308 - Apr 8, 2011 at 2:27 AM
Man, what a catch by Coughlin!Do you guys think Riggs had the steal on or was that Espinosa going on his own – LaRoche sort of erased that memory and lets hope we can hold onGo Nats!
- Andrew - Apr 8, 2011 at 2:37 AM
Nice win! On a night where Josh Johnson was throwing no hit stuff, a good comeback!
- RickH - Apr 8, 2011 at 2:40 AM
Rout. Noun. Any overwhelming defeat.All I'm saying is, let 'em play the game instead of declaring a "rout" before the game even starts.GO NATS!!!

Smatt1001 said… Oh Desi…why did you have to try and steal third? April 7, 2011 10:13 PM ___________________________I think you mean Espi. Why wasn't Riggleman pinch running for Stairs? That should have at least been a double steal so you keep a man in scoring position if the lead runner is caught stealing (like he was) or best case 2 in scoring positon if the steal was successful. You have pitchers who run faster than Stairs, heck I think Livan runs faster than Stairs. You have to pinch run for him. Where Riggles over manages, he seems to under manage in situations like this.

The Nats are now tied with the World Series Champ SF Giants at 2-4 and 2 games ahead of the pre-season AL favorite Red Sox. So the good news is the season is 6 games old. A few wins in NYM set the Nats up much better next week against the Phillies.The bullpen was stellar, Lannan came back strong. 2 HRs from your 2 new big dollar guys were the difference makers.Almost every starter contributed with offense except Ramos went 0-4 and could have been 2-4 as he was robbed in CF and earlier by Hanley.Desmond and Zim were both solid with the glove. Just glad the Nats won so we don't have to disect all the mistakes.

Nice to win one in extra innings. Also, can FP tear off a number or what?
- JaneB - Apr 8, 2011 at 3:17 AM
Not to get all kumbaya on you, but it sure isfun to read Mark's live blog of the game. Then you all make me laugh along the way. Our team may not be on a hot streak (YET YET! There's alway hope ) but you all make things a lot more fun.2 curlie w s…. 79 more to go.
- natsfan1a - Apr 8, 2011 at 3:24 AM
Agreed on all counts, JaneB. Oh, and I liked that the final out was Bonifacio, whiffing.
- FS - Apr 8, 2011 at 4:07 AM
So let me go back and check what I said yesterday. I claimed (more like hoped) Nationals would beat Johnson today. That did not exactly happened but we got the win, which matters.I was at the O's game today so missed all the updates. First thing I did when I got back is check this post. Mark, we may not say it all the time but we really appreciate your updates. Awesome way to catch up on the game, along with some highlights. Thank you.

Hmmm, Phil Dunn quit posting–C'mon Phil, give us a positive comment now.

Outgoing IRS Chief Apologizes for Targeting Practices
UPDATED 6:13 PM CDT May 17, 2013The IRS says foolish mistakes, not political partisanship, led to the inappropriate targeting of tea party groups applying for tax exempt status. The targeting took place in the run-up to the 2010 and 2012 elections. Members of a House committee demanded an explanation from the outgoing IRS commissioner Friday. Sally Kidd reports from Washington.
