Top Definition
A hex-wife is kind of like an ex-wife, except you had children with her and now the government garnishes your wages for child support, which brings you to near poverty, just as if she put a hex on you. You wind up eating mac & cheese every day of the week, you can't afford a phone, cable, or internet.
I would like to buy that, but I can't afford it, you have to understand I have a hex-wife.

Vectrix Electric Maxi-Scooter three-wheeler prototype
December 17, 2006 While the established players in the scooter game have shown concept machinery in the fuel cell, electric and hybrid genres, there's one European company that has been quietly going about the business of designing and building a viable electric maxi-scooter with performance roughly equivalent to a 400cc conventional internal combustion engined mount – Vectrix. The Vectrix maxi-scooter is 100% emission free, has a top speed of 62 mph and runs for up to 68 miles on a single 2-hour charge from a standard electricity socket. Combined with low running costs, minimal maintenance, ease of operation, and generous storage, the Vectrix maxi-scooter is the world's first practical zero-emission two-wheel vehicle. The scooter will be available within months and the great news is that Vectrix recently purchased the EV rights to the innovative Vespa three wheeled carving scooter and a prototype was displayed at last month's Milan motorcycle show. The variable front suspension provides stability at low speeds and excellent handling at higher speeds. The 3-wheel scooter is extremely versatile and will be popular with local businesses and with consumers with limited riding experience as well as being ideal as a delivery vehicle and council/police mount.

text: There are no translations available. Homeopathic Materia Medica by FarringtonSABADILLA(sabad)Like Veratrum album, SABADILLA is a useful remedy on account of its mental symptoms. It may be used with success in cases of imaginary disease. For example, the patient imagines that she is pregnant when she is merely swollen from flatus ; or, that she has some horrible throat disease which will surely end fatally.THUJA has the symptom, imagines herself double or treble, or that she is made of glass, and is in constant fear of being touched lest she be broken. Sabadilla is useful in influenza. There are violent spasmodic sneezing and lachrymation on going into the open air; the throat also is affected, giving you a perfect picture of tonsillitis. The difficulty begins on the left side, and extends to the right; the pain is worse on empty swallowing. Sometimes there is a sensation as of a thread or string in the throat, or else a sense of constriction in the throat as if it was tied by a string. We may also make use of Sabadilla in worms, when there are nausea and vomiting associated with a peculiar colic as though the bowels were being whirled around like a wheel.

About Beautiful Creatures
Fantasy drama about the strange attraction between two teenagers in a Southern town. Ethan Wate (Alden Ehrenreich) has recurring dreams about a mysterious young girl. He approaches her on a Civil War battlefield, only to be struck by lightning. His everyday life in the conservative town of Gatlin is a lot less exciting, as everyone is settled in their ways and they don't take kindly to strangers. Lena Duchannes (Alice Englert) isn't quite a stranger as her uncle is reclusive local Macon Ravenwood (Jeremy Irons) who lives in a Gothic mansion, but her arrival causes shockwaves of rumour through the community and Ethan is drawn to her. She possesses magical powers but is in danger of falling victim to an ancient curse.

How I have managed to lose 15 pounds since starting to read your postings is a modern miracle. Chocolate, caramels, candy chicks, cheese, macarons . . . is there no end to the comestible madness of Paris? I am leaving New York tonight on Air France. Bien sur, I must be strong to face the world of temptations that awaits.
I am looking forward to seeing tons of cute bunnies, though, and I expect them to be all over everywhere!

There are quite a few original GI Joe Sea Sleds on ebay, like the other Dave was saying, the older toys like your Frogman carry a nice value to them. So if you wanted to preserve the value of your toy, this might be an alternative. You could pick up a Joe sled and R/C it, there are also lots of figures available to make it more scale looking. This one is only $16. on ebay (just a thought)
Good Luck with your project!
Thanks for the info. I went to ebay. I already have the Remco frogman but I can use the ebay photos for construction of mine. Some of the G.I. Joe sleds are going for a lot of money.

Pickering, Ontario, Canada | Member Since 2014
What you must know from the start is the historic nature of this book. When jfk was killed -Jackie and the Kennedy clan hand picked William Manchester to write the full official account of the assassination from their end for posterity. Manchester was picked for 2 reasons-firstly he was a friend of jfk and secondly he was a very respected writer/ historian.
This is a remarkable account of EVERYTHING that was thought, done and said in the timeframe of the assassination and funeral. It would be hard to imagine a fuller accounting of that week. Every detail pulled me in tighter and tighter till I felt entirely part of the scene. I couldn't put it down! Though I was so wound -up and upset that I had to listen to something else in bed so I could sleep. I feel so emotionally drained by the experience that I too feel like I am in mourning for this president, despite the fact that I'm Canadian and was just 2yrs old when all this happened. Why am I so affected by something so removed and distant? Why were people around the world so intensely effected? It reminded me of when princess DI died, there was the same world-wide eruption of grief out of all proportion. I've meditated on this question- it seems important to learn why this is so. Was it their relative youth,their class, charisma? Those things are factors
but I think that We hang our dreams consciously or unconsciously on those that embody those rare characteristics of goodness and kindness. Those rare "heroes" of good give us hope for good in a relentlessly dark world. That's my conclusion there's one thing that this book makes all too clear and that is that Jackie was as astounding as the president in this regard-this book makes that all too clear
This is an important book that lays bare not just the tragedy but also the triumph of Jackie whose stoic example remains a testament for the ages. A BOOK NOT TO BE MISSED.
A note on the narration- I thought it was perfect.
For me, Kings writing is escapism from my usual fare of science,history,classics and assorted other non fiction. I first read 11.22.63 because of an interview i heard with king. The main selling point for me was the time travel aspect. I really enjoyed the book and my pre conceived opinion of his work was changed for the better. Next I read under the dome and found it too to be very entertaining. As I worked my way through 8 or so of his books, I became disappointed and frustrated by his inconsistency. A good number of his books were obviously formulaic quick knock offs. Part of me would understand that kind of production writing earlier in his carear for money or a contracts sake but at this juncture he surly must be free to write what he wants.
After writing 11.22.63 and under the dome I thought a new chapter in his writing was being written. Then he wrote Joyland which for some other writer would be fine but for me it seemed like a cop out and a throw back to his quick formulaic novels. It was very disappointing for me that he wasnt even close to tapping his full potential.
Its because I can see his phenomenal potential that books like this one fall far short. If he continues to be a one trick pony and not push his boundaries it will be a sad thing. He surly can afford to take a chance god knows how many millions he has.
There is nothing new here in Mr Mercedes, Its the same formula so his fans will be pleased. Hell I enjoyed it and I'm sure Ill buy his next book, Its just too bad he doesn't challenge himself.
One reviewer titled his review mcguiver goes to mars and that's a very good summation of this novel. As a life-long do it yourself er,designer and woodworker, with huge interests in all the sciences this purchase was a given, especially with the added fact that it has an exceptionally high rating. The problem with this title is it has no depth.
If the author Had added more than the one facet to the story, it could have really been something very special. Instead it seems to me like a squandered great idea,for all we have for the most part is an entire book of mcguiver style D.I.Y problem solving. Considering the fact that there are few people more entertained by this sort of thing than me and I find it too much- it would seem it must be so. Sure it was really interesting how he got out of trouble over and over and over and over again,but for me there should have been more to it. Its written to a large degree as a light hearted romp, The humorist tone does add allot- but I think it would have benefited by adding more realism on the emotion front.
The protagonist never seems to suffer from the reality of his unique situation. Had the lonely, claustrophobic, hungry, panic stricken, soul searching aspects of his situation been added to offset the humor, the story would not just be more believable, it would have given it real substance!
The story has such a great premise that regardless of the lost potential of the story it has garnered a very high rating. Its a worthy read but its very far from what an amazing story this could have been. I would say that if the description sounds like your bag then get it. Even if it isn't what it could have been its still worthy and entertaining.
This is hard to rate for me because there are both great and not so great aspects to this story. Kings descriptive powers of the scary elements in this story are amazing and its easy to see how this tale became such a success when it came out. The problem is with the structure and pace- it needs to be tightened up. If he was to edit this book now with his present skills, it would really be something. Im used to his present high level of writing skill so this early attempt shows its weak points and I found it distracting and disappointing. Altogether a 3 star king read
Lowe's first autobiography was such an unusual and remarkable sensation. It seems that most people like myself bought that first book due to all the over the top reviews, many of which started with lines like - "I never buy books like this but...." or I dont even like or even know who Rob Lowe is but....." Many listeners like myself belong in both of these camps and others like- I never read things related to Hollywood, movie stars or anything else even related to the entertainment industry BUT....
So essentially this auto-biography escaped its inherent narrow target market of "fans" and stood on its own two feet as an enjoyable, interesting, and worthy read/listen. For me it was a very effective break from my usual heavy fare of History,Science, Classics and major biography's,of historical figures.
. obviously this kind of success will make a sequel a given- even if the first book was an autobiography. I have to admit I was looking forward to another book from lowe and having grabbed it on 1st day of release was looking forward to another effective mental vacation from my usual stuff.
So is the book worthy?? Obviously once you've written your autobiography, especially if it was just a few years before, you've used your best bits and story's and are left primarily with what has transpired recently combined with the left over bits from your previous best bio effort.
Like most sequels, it has the same flavor but the high notes and originality are kind of used up. I would say if you haven't read the first book don't bother reading this one- but if you did read and really liked the first book you will enjoy this one but not as much as his first effort.
I blew through the book so fast that its left me feeling like I just read an article but I enjoyed it while it lasted. As lowe is just 53 (my age) another biography will surly be coming at some point and yes- ill probably get that one too.
This could have been one of kings very best, whats ruined it completely is the total lack of editing. Scenes that should be a page are stretched out to chapter size- and this is a crippling fault that runs from the beginning to the end of this book. Ive read between 8-10 king novels and for the most part I have enjoyed them immensely, but there are a few that don't stand up well and this is one of them. There was another king novel that had the same problem and that was bag of bones. I've learnt that king fans cant stand any of their idols work to be criticized so I know that this wont be an appreciated post. Its feels tragic that one of kings best story concepts has been squandered. There is a great story in there somewhere it just needs to be sieved out. I feel like editing it just for fun. It would be interesting to check out kings drinking/drug intake during the period when these 2 books where written, I'm willing to bet they play a major factor. As for the narration, hermann consistently gives a great performance but Im not sure he was the best fit for this story- that is a very minor thing in the context of the books problems. If your a big king fan- try it on, my negative view of this book is certainly a minority opinion.I cant help repeating this- It frustrates me that such a great story has been screwed up.
This is a great read but it will scare the shyt out of you. Nuclear weapons + human error = utter catastrophe. I dont know about you but I always assumed things as dangerous as nuclear weapons were handled with enormous over cautious care. To learn that the people in charge of policy and those that actually handle them are no better than those in your life that you dread lending your car to is a crap your pants revelation.
This is a very well written book that you will prefer to remember as fiction but is of course non fiction. Scott Brick is an utterly perfect match as narrator making this medicine taste great. The revelatory nature of these facts should put this book front and center of our news media and zeitgeist, but thats not going to happen because were all kept amused with bread and circus and no news media will touch it. If your nerves are already at their limit with the state of things and your plate is overflowing, you may want to pass on the revelations contained here. If you can take it- its a drop jaw fascinating listen
This is undoubtedly one of the best books ever written! Best advice for young and old in a perfectly straightforward manner. The most remarkable treatise on how to live ones life, whether it be on your actions or responding to the actions of others. One of the most remarkable books that Ive ever read- hands down. This is the best audible version of it as well. AN ABSOLUTE MUST READ.
This 11 vol. World history is without peer- and is one of the greatest works by any measure In history - and on history. I had asked audible to get it when I saw it became available and it wasn't anywhere on their radar. I assumed they (the one who just released the first book-recorded books I think) would either use the one that was around on tape - that had already been done by the incomparable Grover Gardener or at least use someone else of his caliber and suitability for the material as well as being appropriate for such a stunningly important work. What we got was a huge disappointment. The narrator was not suited to the material-at all, and I should know seeing as( very roughly) 300 of my 900 books are history.
Ive been after this series in audible format for 5yrs and while I sincerely thank audible for their efforts in bringing these titles on board It has been a huge let down. Its not audibles fault though.
Audible has really been great, not just for getting this(despite it being a disaster) but also other things Ive requested like the 2 missing books from Robert Caro's years of lyndon johnson biography which by the way was done marvelously by them. If you havnt read that multi-volume biography your life is incompleate!
Audible if your listening-this 11 vol masterpiece is out there on tape by grover gardiner(though he uses anouther name- Alex Alexander or something like that) Just waiting for you to pick it up re-master it and put it out there. Tongues are hanging out in anticipation of someone doing this!
While I very much wish an unabridged version was available, this is perhaps one case where an abridged version of a book is a good Idea for some. While I'm not suffering a terrible level of depression now, I certainly have- and know how difficult it would be to listen to a 30hr version of this, or any book for that matter while being depressed. Hopefully the abridgement was a good one and an uncut version of this multiple award winning book is in the works.
Before this book I read/ listened to the author's other non-fiction masterpiece FAR FROM THE TREE. That book blew me away and my review of it is in these reviews. Andrew Solomons writing is just incredible!
Solomon uses his own life experiences in this book as he did in Far from the tree. Having battled severe depression himself he's able to write from the vantage point of a fellow sufferer. Solomon is remarkably forthcoming with all the intimate details of his story and others who have suffered terribly. There is much more here than biography though, All treatments I've ever heard of and then some are explained in detail, along with all the other related aspects of this disease. What sets this book apart is Solomons remarkable writing. His honesty, empathy, intellect, erudition and magnitude of research provide a uniquely readable and helpful tool to help those who need help or those who want to understand and help others deal with this dreadful all too common illness. Regardless of severity, this book covers it all. If you are depressed or want to help someone who is depressed I would encourage you to get the book format after listening to this.This is a heavy abridgement, the full book is over 500 pages and by sheer volume must contain important points left out here. Beyond that this is the kind of book to keep as a reference I don't have the book yet but a relative that has fought depression her whole life tells me that her copy is worn to bits and has been her source of solace for years.
Some people don't like Solomons narration but I think he does a great job. If you're impressed with his writing I strongly recommend FAR FROM THE TREE. Considering the prevalence of depression and the severity of damage inflicted by it I Highly recommended this book for everyone

OPM survey: Tight budgets, pay freeze 'taking toll' on employee satisfaction
Wednesday - 11/21/2012, 6:13pm EST
Employee satisfaction across the federal government is sagging, according to the 2012 Employee Viewpoint Survey released by the Office of Personnel Management Wednesday.
While there weren't any drastic drops, scores governmentwide were down in every major measure, including employees' satisfaction with their jobs, supervisors and pay.
OPM Director John Berry, in a message appended to the survey results, said "stresses on public servants" were clearly affecting employee satisfaction.
In the report outlining the survey results, OPM suggested that the "continued tight budgets, salary freezes and general public opinion of federal service are beginning to take a toll on even the most committed employees," but noted that strong majorities of federal employees continue to like the work they do and find it important.
More than 687,000 federal workers responded to the survey, which was sent to 1.6 million employees — more than double the number of responses received last year. OPM said its goal, unlike in previous years, was to reach every permanent civilian employee. The agency had previously targeted about a third of the federal workforce.
Pay frustrations at heart of lower satisfaction
Employee satisfaction scores — what OPM deems the global satisfaction index — are derived from four factors: satisfaction with employees' jobs, agencies and pay, as well as how likely they are to recommend their organization as a good place to work.
Overall, satisfaction slumped downward, compared to 2011 levels, to 63 percent.
The key driver in the lower satisfaction scores was a four-point drop in satisfaction with pay, which hit 59 percent — the lowest level since 2004. Federal employees are now entering their third year of a pay freeze supported by the White House and many congressional leaders.
Scores in the remaining three categories also dipped.
Individual job satisfaction and satisfaction with an employee's agency both dropped three points, to 68 percent and 59 percent, respectively. The percentage of employees recommending their agency as a good place to work dropped two points to 67 percent.
Respect for senior leadership slips slightly
Employee attitudes toward supervisors and agency leadership also dipped across-the-board in 2012.
Just 54 percent of respondents said they have a high level of respect for their organization's senior leaders, down three points from 2011.
Meanwhile, 43 percent of employees said their agency's leaders "generate high levels of motivation and commitment," down from 45 percent last year. Finally, 43 percent of employees said they were satisfied with the policies and practices of senior leaders, down three percentage points from 2011.
OPM suggested given the low satisfaction results, a dimmer view of management was not altogether unexpected.
"Considering what federal employees have weathered over the past survey administrations, and continue to weather in this evolving climate, declines in leadership results are not surprising," the report stated. "Now more than ever, the leadership support of the federal workforce is of critical importance."
Despite the declines in those areas, nearly two-thirds of employees report that managers effectively communicate the goals and priorities of the agency and work well with employees of different backgrounds, OPM noted.
OPM says feds' are 'resilent'
Even with the lower satisfaction levels overall, federal employees still feel the work they do is important — and they like doing it, according to the survey.
"The federal workforce remains resilient — hardworking, motivated and mission-focused even amidst the many challenges facing government today," OPM characterized the results.
Eighty percent of respondents said they like the work they do and understand how it relates to their agency's mission. Another 90 percent of federal employees said the work they do is valuable and are continuing to seek out ways to do their jobs better.
Telework increasing
The increasing number of employees taking advantage of teleworking options, under the auspices of the 2010 Telework Enhancement Act, was another bright spot in the survey.
According to the latest survey, one-third of employees were notified they were eligible to telework last year (up from one-fourth last year) and nearly a quarter of federal employees reported teleworking at some point in 2012.
Individual agencies reported even greater progress. More than 80 percent of employees at the General Services Administration and the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation reported teleworking in some form, according to the survey.

Jason Marquis always figured to be the most-tradeable veteran on the Nationals' roster, a designation that led to plenty of speculation as the clock ticked down toward Sunday's non-waiver deadline.
When the move finally came Saturday, though, it was both expected and surprising. Not because Marquis was traded (to the Diamondbacks for minor-league shortstop Zach Walters) but because he was traded only two hours before he was scheduled to start at Nationals Park against the Mets.
Actually, Marquis didn't get official confirmation of the deal until 6 p.m., just one hour before scheduled first pitch. Still wearing a Nationals T-shirt and shorts at his locker when he was summoned by team officials, Marquis watched as right-hander Yunesky Maya (who had been flown in from Syracuse earlier in the day to serve as emergency starter) entered the clubhouse and was handed his jersey for the night.
"Obviously, the rumors were swirling around here, but you've got to focus on what you do," Marquis said. "But ultimately, when they came and got me and people started saying I might be traded, I've still got

Zach Walters? What, couldn't the D-Backs throw in some batting practice baseballs and a couple of fungoes along with a guy whose name we won't ever hear again after this weekend?
- JimHoy - Jul 30, 2011 at 9:30 PM
A low ninth round pick? I know Marquis isn't a stud, but wow. I thought we had a few prospects in the pipeline at SS too, so that it wasn't a need area.
- TimDz - Jul 30, 2011 at 9:32 PM
Don't think we could expect much more than salary relief and a flyer on some low prospect…He wasn't in the long term plan and would not have even been a Type B free agent, so we would have gotten nothing anyway…
- natsfan1a - Jul 30, 2011 at 9:34 PM
Thanks and good luck to Jason. Tim, you need some practice on the knee-jerk reaction front. That's too reasoned a response for the interwebz.
- Anonymous - Jul 30, 2011 at 9:36 PM
We got less then we could have IMO because we were not willing to pick up any of Marquis salary. We were salary dumping and you do not get value when you are doing that.
- Anonymous - Jul 30, 2011 at 9:37 PM
From the last thread, his value was never as a Type B even if he were at that level as clubs would not risk offering him arb and him taking it at $8M. His value, his considerable value, is as an extreme groundball SP innings eater with playoff chops. Hard for me to think that they could not have gotten much more if they ate some money in the deal.Now we can wait for Rizzo to move an electric arm (a la Hanrahan) and a solid prospect for a midling CF later today in Span. yay!dfh21

Walters is still a prospect; he is not mere organizational filler. But he doesn't look like a top prospect. But you can't tell. Two years ago, who would have thought Lombardozzi would look a lot better than Kobernus?The deal isn't nearly as good as the Hairston deal, but it is still better than not making the deal. They dump $2.5 million salary, can get Marquis back if they want him, pick up a prospect, and don't lose a draft pick. The cost? Maybe 2 extra games lost, tops. I don't know what else was being offered for Marquis, but something is better than nothing.And besides, I don't really think the Nats need Marquis any more. They now have some credibility as an organization (the original reason for getting Marquis), and don't need a solid #4 starter in 2012. Heck, with Rosenbaum still a prospect, they haven't even foresworn Jewish pitchers.
- natsfan1a - Jul 30, 2011 at 9:48 PM
Also, I like Marquis, but I'm not sure about the postseason chops part, as his record there seems rather inconsistent and he was left off of postseason rosters more than once, I believe:http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/m/marquja01.shtml

Okay, now the Gomes trade really doesn't make any sense. If we are just going to dump our veterans and wave the white flag, why the heck did we need to add spare part outfielder?
- sunderland - Jul 30, 2011 at 10:01 PM
Just guessing this is a pretty decent approximation. Zack Walter is roughly Blake Kelso (but better it would seem). They are both the best position players on a low-A team. Blake a 10th rounder pick in 2010 out of college, Zack a 9th round pick out of college in the same draft. Both roughly the same age.Because Blake is ours, Nat's fans tend to think of him as a real prospect. And since Zach is not, he's just some organization filler.I'm completely fine with trading Marquis, and completely fine with getting Zach Walters in return.Zach, .302 / .377 / .485 OPS .861Blake, .295 / .363 / .352 OPS .716
- Get Some Players - Jul 30, 2011 at 10:06 PM
Marquis is a rental player, so this trade seems fine to me. Nats could sign Marquis again this winter. However, the fact that Maya is starting tonight has caused me immense pain.
- HHover - Jul 30, 2011 at 10:08 PM
Thanks to Sunderland, Tim and 1a for some of the more reasoned reactions.Like everybody else, I don't know much about Walters; what I've heard doesn't make him seem like an unreasonable return for 10-12 more starts from a pitcher notorious for fading down the stretch.As for those complaining this and the Hairston move are a salary dump: seems a bit premature to decide that before we see what elso Rizzo does in the next 23 hours or so. For all we know, he's clearing a little salary with plans to add more.
- sunderland - Jul 30, 2011 at 10:08 PM
Get Some Players – Ya. Hoping that clearing Marquis and Hairston off the 40 man means Peacock and Malone will soon be outfitted in Curly-W's
- bups - Jul 30, 2011 at 10:08 PM
Span has a concussion. Concussions are almost as bad as terminal cancer these days. Just ask Justin Morneau who has had his wonderful career ruined by a couple of concussions. After the Laroche and Marquis experiences, the absolute last thing Rizzo needs to do is bring in more high profile damaged goods.
- Steveospeak - Jul 30, 2011 at 10:09 PM
@Sunderland-I think you are right, just because people haven't heard of him, people are assuming he doesn't have value. But as you said his numbers are far better than Kelso's who is someone that most Nats fans are excited about.
- Anonymous - Jul 30, 2011 at 10:14 PM
Maya is another in a long list of worthless acquisitions Rizzo has brought here so we have to suffer through another painful evening just like last night. Riggleman must be laughing his ass off!

Making a trade for the sake of making a trade is another Rizzo fail. This guy will only see a MLB clubhouse if he buys a ticket for the stadium tour.
- Steveospeak - Jul 30, 2011 at 10:28 PM
I for one am well in favor of this trade. I was maybe hoping for a bit more from Marquis, and wouldn't have minded seeing them take some of the cost (say a million) to get a better return, but this isn't a bad deal. Walters is a solid prospect who is tearing it up in Low-A right now. While that is far from a guarantee of him having future value, it is worth noting that his OPS would be 2nd on the Suns right now. I'd love to see the Nats promote him to High-A for the rest of the year and see if he can get started on a faster track, but right now he is projecting well. Today the Nationals traded away 2 months of Hariston Jr. and 2 months of Jason Marquis, for control of two solid prospects, Komatsu who will be 24 in a couple months, and Walters who will be 22 soon. While neither is a 'top prospect', both ranked in their organizations top 30 according to BA before the season (Komatsu 14 in a weaker system, and Walters 29). And both will rank even higher in the Nationals after the good years that they are having. The Nats added two quality young prospects to their system today and saved just over $3 million. Which while some call a salary dump, in reality it will go to signing draft picks and next year's payroll. The reason why the Phillies have been able to make 4 major trades in the past 2 years (Cliff Lee, Halladay {yes trading away Lee for less}, Oswalt and Pence), is because they have had really good prospect depth. Now the Phillies got that depth mainly b/c of drafting as they haven't 'sold' anyone with the exception of that odd trade of Lee, but that isn't the only way you acquire prospect depth. The Nats got two prospects that they didn't have before and they got them for a pair of players who aren't stars or superstars and who would walk away with nothing to show for them in 2 months.
- Doc - Jul 30, 2011 at 11:06 PM
@ Steveospeak:Good point on the farm system depth. Nats should have been able to trade for Pence but their farm system is still playing catchup.Maybe next year!!!!Gooooooooooooooooooooooooo Nats!
- Anonymous - Jul 30, 2011 at 11:13 PM
I think a key part of this trade was the salary pickup by the d'backs. I'm almost certian the money saved will go towards signing their high draft picks. If this now means the Nats can offer more to Purke and get him signed, then we win this trade.
- Not happy, not sad, just waiting - Jul 30, 2011 at 11:25 PM
It's funny that at last year's trade deadline, people complained that no moves were made. Now, Rizzo is making moves and still people complain. In addition, many were upset when Jerry was signed, now suddenly he was given away for nothin'. Come on people. Some moves pan out; others don't. It's the nature of the gamble. I would suspect, although he's perhaps not perfect, Rizzo knows a bit more about this game than us fans. So let's sit back and enjoy the ride.
- Bill Stoneman - Jul 31, 2011 at 12:11 AM

Rizzo better be saying no, no and no.6:08pm: The Twins are insisting on acquiring Storen with Bernadina and minor league infielder Stephen Lombardozzi for Span, according to Jim Bowden of ESPN.com (on Twitter).

I remember the day I heard we'd signed Marquis, and how it felt like such a grown up move. I wish him all the best. I'm surprised we didn't get more for him, and wondering why we need more infielders in the system. But whatever. And kudos for Maya for getting it done. And to Davey for yanking him when he did.
- Sparkster - Jul 31, 2011 at 2:07 AM
JaneB, why would you expect more when all the D'backs are getting is about 12 starts? That's all they get. Pence is in Phllly next year too.Marquis is a free agent come the end of season.
- DepotMaster - Jul 31, 2011 at 2:39 AM
I should have known not to comment on the family Lombardozzi connection to Minnesota. Rizzo…take a look at Baltimore – they just got a strong power hitter and a competent starter from Texas for JUST a middle reliever. You don't have to mortgage the farm for a guy with a concussion!
- JaneB - Jul 31, 2011 at 3:55 AM
I guess, Sparkster, because they need him and there aren't many for real guys out there for sale.It's going to make the DBacks rematch a lot less full of fireworks, to have Marquis play for them instead of us.
- Nats in Athens - Jul 31, 2011 at 10:19 AM
In 2011, the deadline that still matters to the Nats is August 15th. IF they are able to sign the top five unsigned players then what happened yesterday does not matter. Still, the Nats have such a low payroll that money should not matter here; they should have eaten the remainder of the contract and gotten a better player.
- Will - Jul 31, 2011 at 12:50 PM
This trade is a win for the Nats. In August, we'll get to see what Peacock and Milone can do, then come September Strasburg will be back. We didn't need Marquis' starts anyway. And if the $2mil+ we saved on him can go towards signing Meyer and Goodwin (which is probably what it will cost, and maybe leave some extra for Purke), all the better!

Gateway to a New World: Rare Photos From Ellis Island
For a country constantly patting itself on the back and touting its unique status as a "nation of immigrants," the United States has an awfully hard time maintaining a consistent policy—and attitude—toward the millions of people who desperately want to come to the U.S. and join the great, chaotic American experiment.
In fact, one would be hard-pressed to name more than a very small handful of issues that have bedeviled legislators, the courts and the public for as long as immigration has. Today, as the question of whether the United States will seriously address comprehensive immigration reform looms ever larger, and as the country's racial and ethnic demographics shift more rapidly and more dramatically than at any time in the past century, LIFE.com looks back at an irreducible, physical emblem of immigration in the U.S., Ellis Island, through the lens of one of LIFE greatest photographers (and a proud immigrant himself), Alfred Eisenstaedt.
Eisenstaedt went out to the island in Upper New York Bay in the fall of 1950 because the rough machinery of politics had once again brought confusion and delay to the processing of hundreds upon hundreds of men, women and children looking to step on to American soil. But beyond chronicling the immediately evident impact that political rivalries in Washington were having on real, human lives a few hundred miles to the north, Eisensteadt's pictures also uncannily mirror photographs made at Ellis Island decades before.
(By some estimates, a full third of the population of the United States—more than 100 million people—can trace their ancestry to immigrants who first arrived at Ellis Island. Few Americans, meanwhile, recall that both Liberty Island and much of Ellis Island are not in New York, at all, but are instead part of the great state of New Jersey.)
Here, LIFE.com offers a series of Eisenstaedt's pictures, many of which have never been published before. Here, in black and white, are the faces, the clothes, and even the dreams and the fears of people who have crossed thousands of miles to get to this very spot—and have been stopped, for the moment, from going any further by the one force capable of thwarting hope: bureaucracy.
Some of the pictures in this gallery appeared in the November 13, 1950 issue of LIFE. The story explained the photos, and the situation on the island, this way:
The flat, 30-acre island in New York Bay is not what European Communists gleefully call it—"that well-known concentration camp." But Ellis Island is today a gray and gloomy place suddenly full of bewildered people who have become victims of American politics.
The trouble began with an unfortunate law, the McCarran Communist control bill. The bill, designed to exclude subversives, was so loosely drawn that it excluded harmless ad desirable aliens as well, people whose only crime may have been membership in the Hitler Youth at the age of 9 or enrollment in a Fascist labor union when joining was a prerequisite to eating. Last September, President Truman vetoed the bill. Congress re-passed it over his veto. [In the ensuing power struggle, would-be] immigrants were caught up in this political wrangle, and "delayed" beyond reason on the little island.
LIFE then went on the describe the "flood-tide activity" at Ellis that the great photographer Lewis Hine documented in the early 1900s—activity that slowed to a trickle (1,300 a month vs. 3,000 a day in 1906) by the late 1940s—and noted that for the first time in decades, the island was "again full of deeply human scenes."
The new aliens, photographed here by LIFE's Alfred Eisenstaedt, look the same, have old-country clothes and the same wide-eyed, insistent children. The old buildings, with their huge, tiled rooms, and wire-mesh partitions, are still the same. But this time, because the inspectors must examine not only the bodies and finances of the aliens but their past political connections as well, the atmosphere is gloomier and there are long, inexplicable delays filled with anxiety. . . . [Some] are held for several days. Most of them wind up at a high pitch of exasperation, crying, "Why don't you ask me now what I think of your beautiful country? Why don't you ask me now?" Only a few, like Professor Arrigo Poppi, who came from the University of Bologna to study medicine at Harvard, retain there humor. "I came here to study the heart disease," he said, "and instead I get the heart disease."

The MeCo 120 tee is a light weight, short sleeved base layer made from a blend of Merino wool and Polyester with Cocona® technology. The fabric that we use in the new MeCo range of baselayers is an intimate blend of ethically sourced Australian Merino wool (65%) and recycled polyester with Cocona® technology (35%). Cocona® technology uses activated carbon gained derived from discarded coconut shells and other natural porous particles. This is contained within the recycled fibre and will not wear out or wash off. In the MeCo 120 Tee we use a 120g/s/m MeCo fabric. The fabric is lightweight and makes the most of the comfortable and anti microbial nature of Merino wool but is made much faster drying due to the synthetic content of the fabric. The Cocona® technology even adds to the antimicrobial qualities of the fabric. The MeCo 120 short sleeve tee has a close fit making it an ideal base later for all high activity uses in all conditions and optimises performance by offering the warmth and comfort of merino but that dries faster than 100% Merino wool. RRP: £39.99
