Daughter reveals Vermont woman's secret to longevity
BERLIN – One of the oldest people in Vermont died Friday at the age of 106 and her daughter said the secret to her longevity was staying positive.
Although Carmen Sorbanelli father lived to be 96 years old and mother lived to be 87, she was the first in her family to live past 100, according to her daughter Dolores Reinecke.
"She never smoked or drank and ate a rather healthy diet, but if you asked her why she lived so long she'd say, 'Because I smile,'" Reinecke said.
Reinecke said one of Sorbanelli's favorite stories was when she was working at a polling station in Hudson County, N.J. in the
1930s. Sorbanelli was worried about people taking ballots out of the ballot box so her solution was to sit on the box.
"She would say that was the only time there was an honest election in Hudson county," Reinecke said laughingly.
Reinecke remembered the first time her mother flew in the 1980s. She said they were going to Hawaii and when the plan flew over a volcano Reinecke closed her eyes and gripped the armrests in fear, while her mother had a different reaction.
She was relaxed and happy. She loved every new adventure," Reinecke said.
Flying is a part of Sorbanelli's family history. Reinecke claimed Sorbanelli's father, Vincent Raschella, had flown an airplane he had built in Italy before the Wright brothers made their historic flight in 1903.
The New York Public Library has some of Raschella's documents and describe him as an artist and aeronautic inventor of gliders and dirigibles. According to documents at the library, Raschella flew one of his hang gliders named "The Falcon" over 200 ft. in 1889.

Makes Mehmets go crazy. Like seriously, don't mention the word "kookies" in the presence of a Turkish males known as "Mehmet". If kept from kookies, a Mehmet is likely to explode into an extreme rage, similar to that of Schnoorlax when awaken.

Liking someone you know you shouldn't and who you have a sneaking suspicion doesn't like you back. Often accompanied by an electricity when they look at you and nervous laughter.

Gary Ross is getting rave reviews for his faithful adaptation of Suzanne Collins' The Hunger Games, but what if a different director imposed his or her own peculiar vision on the dystopian murder competition? These movie posters imagine how Katniss and company would fare in the hands of some very different moviemakers.
Darren Franich and Jef Cifra-Castro at Entertainment Weekly created this set of imaginary movie posters. You can see the full set at EW, and appreciate the horror of a bikini-clad Katniss or The Hunger Games reinterpreted as a romantic comedy.

· Native Americans report a much higher prevalence of cigarette smoking (44% vs. 23%) than white persons in Nebraska do, and they were more likely to be physically inactive (29% vs. 25%) or obese (39% vs. 23%). They were more likely to report having no health insurance (27% vs. 11%) and to say there had been a time during the past 12 months when they could not afford to see to a doctor (21% vs. 9%).

· Compared to non-Hispanic white persons in Nebraska, a greater proportion of Hispanic Americans stated they had not participated in any leisure-time physical activity in the previous month (44% vs. 25%). They were also more likely to have no health insurance (25% vs. 11%) and to be unable to afford to see a physician at least once in the past 12 months (17% vs. 9%).

Again, nVIDIA doesn't provide drivers for this platform because of the irrelevant 1% that linux makes up in the consumer market or because they like the philosophy or platform.
They provide it because of companies using linux for different kinds of vectorial computing (be it graphical or physics ... ever heard of NASA, Gas or Oil companies "accelerating" calculus through the GPU? there you have it)
THIS, gentlemen ... is the VERY reason they make drivers for linux → http://www.nvidia.com/object/cuda_consultants.html
And by mere accident they drop the drivers to the public so they can get some free (as in price) testing of the drivers (and, as a "payment" for that, they kinda give support for some desktop applications)
Licking boots or not, nVIDIA has no choice other than keep providing drivers not because of the community ... again, it's because of the big money that they would loss to AMD if they ever dare to not provide drivers for those companies.
So, nVIDIA ... if you wanna keep making money from this platform? you'll have to play by the rules of it
This forum really needs some moderators
When I read this thread I feel like I am using lsd or something? Rofl, the Opensource guys are now the fanatics? And the freesoftware guys? what are there terrorists? Rofl, Linus who is fine that his kernel are used for sharks with lasers from evil people to illustrate his prakticality with the lisense and is cool with using closed source even has no big problems when his kernel gets violated 999 of 1000 times, but now because they drive it to far, now he is the fanatic rofl. Such stupid stuff can only say a windows user who should never left it.
If its the technical points that drive you to linux, just use apple-os. is it noticable worse technicaly? No some would even say its better. Its a better field for closedsource companies. Or use chrome-os or something like that. I dont get it.
And this argument, that most linux developers (you just mean here only the kernel so just install the kernel and show me how useful it is) are developed by companies. And that they would not care about freedom, they dont care about it directly maybe, a company cant care about anything anyway because its no person, even some trolls invented such retardness in america someday.
But they care because they make money because of that, do you think redhat would sell one copy of its distros and support if they went away to closedsource/bsd like mixture, which would become more and more closed source.
It has a reason why linux is so popular and why so many companies support it now. If users and developer would be more happy with a bsd lisense, why is bsd not that popular and well supported? Why? Just because the many many desktop users care so much about their freedom, no but the developers do.
"Linux Desktop would be dead" like its dead in the last 10 years? I can live good with that dead desktop as long as its very good and I can use it, I dont care if 95% of the other users use windows or macosx. And why would linux be dead shure much users would not come to linux who have nvidia cards. But the wine devs would then work more in the direction to use the catalyst driver better and the free ones. So if you are minded like you who dont care about freedom at all not even a bit in this very compromised way opensource "non-fanatic" guys do and are fanatic against-freedom like you, you can buy a amd card next time and use that. And if thats to bad for you wth do you not use macosx? are the 50 bucks to much for you or what? If its gaming what you wand just use windows, nobody cares about that, if you violate your own freedom and you become a product of a company. Linus is one of the biggest critic of Stallman so to say he is a fanatic because he cares to much about freedom is just mushroom-world I should take some drugs to understand you better.
There are some programms that give you multi-display or shure you can get a better console if you want but I have a feeling you dont use that much in linux and if so not because you like it ^^.
You can even install cygwin. or some themes to make the look of windows. and be happy stop trolling use windows nobody will miss you.
We can only get along if we respect each other. Per definition "proprietary" is "owned, ruled". Per definition "GPL" is "open and protected against closing". If proprietary tries to take over GPL code, GPL is enforced the way it was designed.
We can't get along so long we try to enslave friends. This is what "proprietary" does to survive.
Because if "proprietary" does not try to take over something vital and become "forcefully enforced" on others heads, it has a risk to be reimplemented in free version.
Solely because "open" is an improvement over "closed", because you can't enforce your own agenta using "open". Example: Nvidia refuses to support Wayland, so every nvidia user is excluded from this project.
This guy is pro-microsoft idiot.
I wonder when Michael will actually put forum spammers and pro-microsoft trolls on one line?
Because its valid reason to argue over closed and open, but its simply spamming when someone uses an account just to promote commercial systems via mass spamming and trolling.

Article courtesy of Special Olympics Missouri
At one time, Athlete Kristina O'Neal did not know the pool had depth, but she is now open to a whole new world of swimming because of a precious gift of goggles from Healthy Athletes.
Special Olympics Athlete and newly appointed International Global Messenger Kristina O'Neal with her new prescription goggles.
O'Neal had been chosen as a swimming delegate for the 2010 National Games to be held in July, but her coach Cheryl Heltzel and others were worried about her vision.
"Her eyes are getting progressively worse and we are trying to keep her safe in the water", Heltzel said.
O'Neal used regular goggles for every stroke but backstroke. In swimming, flags are used to notify backstroke swimmers that they are getting close to the wall. She had to wear her regular glasses in the water during backstroke so that she could see the flags and therefore would not bump into the wall. While O'Neal's insurance paid for glasses, she was unable to get prescription goggles.
Fortunately, Dr. Lee Ann Barrett, a Healthy Athletes Opening Eyes clinical director, stepped in to help. Barrett takes a personal interest in making sure athletes have healthy vision so they can compete at their peak ability. Once Barrett was notified of O'Neal's need for prescription goggles, she worked with suppliers to make a custom pair for her. For O'Neal, the best part was that she didn't need to pay for the goggles.
She is thrilled about her new goggles because it opened a whole new world of swimming for her.
"I can actually watch my friends swim now, and I love cheering them on," O'Neal said. She also said she is grateful for Barrett and plans on giving Barrett one of her gold medals because O'Neal believes that in her heart, "she is a gold medal winner."
Heltzel is excited for Kristina because not only can she see better in the water, but she can see the steps to get out of the water which can prevent injuries. "The first time she swam with the goggles, she stopped in the middle of the lane and touched the bottom of the pool," Heltzel explained. "Kristina was amazed because she didn't even know there were black lines at the bottom."
Special Olympics transforms athletes' lives through the joy of sport. Help us make a difference.
Volunteering with Special Olympics is fun and very rewarding, for both the athlete and the volunteer!

St. Andrews . . .
Trip Start
Sep 03, 2007
Trip End
Sep 14, 2007
Where I stayed
Garfield House Bed & Breakfast
I hovered around the building until 6:40 when the starter showed up, took my name, and put me on the list. With that, I left and went back to the B&B for breakfast, knowing that I would not get on to the Old Course this time. There were only six open slots all day, and with the weather being as good as it was, I had no chance. Breakfast was the same - brilliant and bloating. After I unbuckled the pants and shoehorned my way out of the chair, I changed and walked around town. Although I am shamed to admit it, I know I had a more enjoyable day walking the the town than if I had played golf. My game has been in the tank and I was working on 4 hours sleep, so the day off helped. The sun was out in force, so I walked along the beach to St. Andrews Castle. After that, I made my way to the ruins of St. Andrews Cathedral, which has been in existence since the 1300's. The ruins are impressive, and they give you signs to where everything would have been. I had to laugh as the only churches I ever go into are the ones that are completely destroyed! Probably one of my ancestors went in this one and that's what caused it to cave in on itself. (Side note: actually it was a number of sieges that laid waste to the Cathedral, but . . . )
Inside the ruins were the gravestones of many of the town's prominent citizens - the most visited would be the grave of Young Tom Morris who died of pneumonia at 25, but everyone knows he died of a broken heart. He passed away three months after his wife died while giving birth to their first child. The child did not make it either. He was THE best golfer in the world by age 21 - Tiger Woods before Tiger Woods' parents were born - he was the first to win three consecutive Open Championships, after which they retired the red leather belt given to the winner (hence now the reason why there is a Claret Jug - they had to find something else to give as the prize). I climbed up St. Rule's Tower (100+ ft.) for awesome views of the town. After lunch, I went down to the Old Course once again and simply sat in the sun and watched golfers finish the round. A sense of quiet settles over the entire place as the lucky few stride up the fairway of the last hole, hoping to see a special shot (or a duffed shot perhaps).
I poked around the area, then went into the British Golf Museum which is a very interesting 40 minute trip through the history of golf. I left feeling very good about the whole situation - not depressed at all at not being able to play - I know I will be back. I actually went to the practice area on the way out and hit some balls to try to work a couple things out. Don't know if they will work or not! After that I drove on through Dundee over the Tay Road Bridge which was very long over very deep water. I didn't stop in Dundee, but it was a very bustling, industrial city. I will certainly try to swing back through on my return journey to Edinburgh. The drive from Dundee took me through Coupar Angus and on to Blairgowrie. This is the lower foothills of the Highlands, and it shows. Very brilliant terrain. Landed a B&B near town, walked into Blairgowrie for dinner. Got a three course meal for 9.95 pounds ($20) - breaded mushroom app., lamb with mash, caramel creme. After getting up at 4:30 and walking all day, it was definitely time for bed.

There are a number of factors to take into account when coaching a group of players.
The attitude of the players is instrumental in influencing your coaching method. The players may be on a losing streak and feeling a little downhearted and negative. This attitude makes coaching very challenging as negativity makes players far less receptive to new information. They can become very irritable and easily disillusioned if they cannot get to grips with what you are coaching.
The idea may be to set up a high tempo drill or a small sided game to get them going and to shake them out of their current state. An upbeat and enthusiastic approach is even more important when dealing with such an attitude as it is often the coach the players look to for inspiration and motivation.
If it is too hot and/or humid, the session has to be thought out carefully. The players' quality and ability to concentrate can be severely affected in such conditions. In such an instance, lots of breaks should be incorporated into the practice with emphasis on short drills but high quality.
Extreme cold or rain can have a negative effect on your sessions. It is imperative in this instance to have the session well planned so the players are not standing around and getting cold.
Also, the motivation from the coach is all important. No matter how down you may feel in such conditions, it is important the players see your enthusiasm and know that you can adapt no matter how frustrated you may be in such conditions.
The standard of the players you are coaching and the number of players you are coaching are key factors that will affect your coaching style.
Have you got a goalkeeper to work with? Are there any important players missing ? Everything has to be taken into account before adopting the session you feel will be most beneficial.
The surface you will be training on is an essential factor in deciding what to do in your session. Is the pitch bumpy, flat, artificial or muddy? Have you got the necessary equipment to put your session on. Are there enough bibs, balls etc.?
Although a good quality surface is ideal, it is not the be all and end all for you to put an enjoyable session - some coaches have had to use car parks to put a practice on. It is all about adapting to your circumstances - always have a Plan B at hand.
In order to get coaching points across in the most effective way, the coach has to adapt and decide on a number of different styles relevant to the players he/she is coaching.

I've been looking for this for ages. Finally someone has stepped upto the plate to create it.... Very exciting, I will be following this closely.
Phoronix: Open-Source Versions Of BioWare 3D Game Engines
There's open-source development work on re-implementations of BioWare's 3D game engines, principally at this point for the Aurora engine as used by Neverwinter Nights...
I've been looking for this for ages. Finally someone has stepped upto the plate to create it.... Very exciting, I will be following this closely.
Seems to be in pretty early stages of development. I really hope it turns into something; and maybe some form of Aurora Toolkit could be written for it too. <hint>
For the most part I like the Aurora engine in NWN. Scaling menus to high resolutions would be a nice touch though.
i own nwn and i have it running natively under linux without wine. i'm sure an open source engine might perform a little better, since from what i gather, the linux files were kinda just a dirty hack, so some performance is lost. i'd be more interested in the other games functioning, since they do not have linux compatibility at all, as far as i'm aware.
theres so many older games out there that i'd really like to see move to linux. starcraft is a big one, but i think we all know that won't happen anytime soon and stargus is just as incomplete as this bioware engine project.
This great German guy is part of the ScummVM Team too, so I have high hopes for him
He obviously needs to form a Team for his project, because this engine is technically quite more complex than a 2D one (even many 2D engines are a team of people) and he needs at least someone to help him in the 3D stuff.
So if you like this effort and know about 3D stuff like OpenGL and such, please help him. If you want to play those games on non-Microsoft platforms too and have tons of money to spare, please help him too.
Projects like this are not just good for Linux game players, but also for preserving classic games to the future. This kind of software will make possible to show these games to future generations. The old geeks will show them despite being less graphically sophisticated compated to those far future games are, they suck compared to the classic ones. And the old school geeks will be able to show in the future their gray hair with pride!
Michael, there's other interesting projects like this out there. You should check them more often and put some nice news about it...

Wow, I'm impressed at how well it works already!
This is just fantastic! One of the best news I've heard in the last months!
A quick Google shows that Eos is also the name of a nwn editor (e.g. Aurora toolkit) for the Mac.
Actually, it could provide many benefits, even for a game that has a native linux version, as gemrb could do for inifinity
- the binaries will not work for very long (it uses old versions of SDL, doesn't know about PA etc.)
- the game was full of harcoded limitations. I don't really criticize, there was always limited dev time and I'm sure many technical reasons. Modders spent a great deal of time working around those
So it could really make it live far longer and better than the original game (ARM computers ?).
The best selling point of this game was (in the opinion of many) the ability to customize it. There were litterally hundreds of custom modules (separate stories), custom content (models, creatures, classes etc.).
Lets not forget that the NWN engine is also the Kotor engine, which also means we could be looking at ARM ports in several years if the project succeds.

The Jimi - a wallet for minimalists
August 23, 2005 A boy's first wallet is a true Alladin's cave – one of the true landmarks on the way to manhood, it is crammed full of many more "handy" things than it's actually practical to carry. Adulthood wallets are even worse, being crammed with every version of credit, loyalty, membership, library, health insurance and now even building access cards plus topped up daily with receipts from every time you use one of those cards. There are times though when you don't wish to carry a "hamburger with the lot" – when you want to feel svelte and free and minimalist. For such times, there's the Jimi – Japanese for "simple" and in this case, a simple wallet. It's cute, unbreakable and carries a few credit cards and some notes and it'll disappear into a shirt or hip pocket without disrupting any lines. Sometimes referred to as the anti-wallet it fits into the same category as the Tsaya phone holster for gals in being one of very few objects that can be described as sexy, fun AND practical.

Hi Kevin,
I am so sorry that you are suffering. I know that severe stomach pain is excruciating. I will keep you in my daily prayers. Keep us posted!
Kevin-40666 said:
Kevin, Saying prayers. I John 3:2 God wants you healed--believe it. Happy Birthday, Eileen.
Will you please pray for me and my sore stomach ?
For over 30 years, I have had some stomach discomfort
that for the most part has been just a low-level nuisance,
but over the past several weeks it has transformed into
some major-league pain. So this coming Tuesday (May 7)
I'm off to see the gastroenterologist, and hopefully soon will get the
problem identified and cured. Thanks very much for your help.
I am sorry to hear of your problem Kevin and you have had stress in your life recently. I will pray for your health.
I have stomach problems and for me it is acid reflux problem. With the lord leading your medical professional they will findout what is wrong and get you into tip top shape. There is nothing to fear when you are in the lords hands.
As always like the other people that have reply i will pray for you and a speed recovery. THANKS BE TO GOD!!!!!
Kevin, I pray you a solution! On one hand, a beloved friend (from CM) was experiencing a great deal of GI distress, and it seems it may have been a precursor to her ultimate heart failure, and passing (in her case, she knew she had a weak heart, but it seems she didn't recognise the connection). On the other hand, I had many odd symptoms for many years that ultimately led to my ER visit ... with a bowel obstruction caused by a congenital defect - it was quickly and easily relieved by laparoscopic surgury. Take care, and please do get to that GI! God Be With You!

Mamoswine (Japanese: マンムー Manmuu) is a Ice/Ground-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.
Mamoswine looks like a woolly mammoth, and has two tusks. The tusks are much larger than those of Piloswine and seem to be shifted downward.
The tusks of the male are larger than those of the female. The tusks are made from solid ice instead of dentin like most teeth are.
Mamoswine is the evolved form of Piloswine by leveling it up and teaching it AncientPower. Mamoswine is the final evolutionary form of Swinub.

Mamoswine appears to be based on a Woolly Mammoth.
Name Origin
Mamoswine's English name is derived from the word mammoth, meaning Gigantic, also referring to it being woolly like a Mammoth, and the word swine, also referring to its appearance being similar to that of a pig.
- Mamoswine were common during the ice age, but their numbers lowered as the climate got warmer.
- No other Pokémon has the same type combination as Mamoswine and its pre-evolutions.
- Mamoswine and its pre-evolutions are the only Ice type Pokémon not to have a weakness to Rock. They also the only Ice type Pokémon to have a weakness to Water. They also the only Pokémon to be immune to both sandstorm and hail.
- In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers from the sky, in the chapter In the future of darkness, Grovyle says that among the Ice-type Pokémon, Mamoswine is the strongest!

Davey Johnson's status is priority No. 1 for the Nats this fall.
For the Phillies, Brewers, Diamondbacks, Cardinals, Yankees, Tigers, Rangers and Rays, the postseason begins today. For everybody else, the offseason has commenced.
Which means the Nationals need to get to work addressing all of their various issues between now and Opening Day 2012.
They need to decide who will manage the club next season. They need to decide which of their pending free agents they will attempt to re-sign. They need to decide which free agents from other clubs they will attempt to pursue. They need to make sure their injured players are healing and rehabbing on schedule. They need to keep tabs on anyone playing fall or winter ball.
Baseball, of course, has become a year-round sport. There's no such thing as a quiet offseason anymore. So with that in mind, here are the top five issues facing the Nationals before pitchers and catchers report for spring training…
Obviously, this is priority No. 1, though it shouldn't be a terribly complicated process and it shouldn't take very long to be completed.
Davey Johnson wants to return. Mike Rizzo loves Davey Johnson. The team responded well to him, especially down the stretch. He's already got the framework of a contract in place that will pay him a nice

Mark:Is it because we have RZimm under contract until 2013 that you don't consider that a top story line?? I have always thought that is the number one thing I would like to see happen this off-season. I realize we have to get a manager but to me, Zimm being here for 7 more years sets the table for all the other stuff.Really good thoughts on how important the AFL is for our team this year. If Rendon and Harper show well it will allow Rizzo to concentrate solely on a veteran pitcher. Playoff talk – pretty bold move for the Rays starting a pitcher with just one major league start but I like it. If he wins its gravy and it allows them to rest their big guns after a crazy race to the finish. Not sure any team would like to face SS & JZim next year in a best of 5.
- natsfan1a - Sep 30, 2011 at 4:37 PM
Thanks, Mark. Will be interesting to see what develops in the offseason.As to postseason games, I may just have to add Jim Leyland's Tigers to my rooting list in addition to Joe Maddon's Rays. Given this exchange as quoted in an AP story, I'm feeling some Luddite solidarity with Leyland. ;-)Leyland and his Detroit Tigers already were assured a trip to the postseason. But the 66-year-old manager was riveted in his office, watching Boston and Tampa Bay play their games.Leyland turned to Tigers coach Lloyd McClendon for help."Trust me, I don't have one, but McClendon has one of those fancy things you can watch. I don't know what they call it. Playman," Leyland said Thursday.An iPad, actually."I could see it. Then it went out because of the satellite or something. I don't know, it came back on. You could hear it, then you could see it again," he said. "It was great. We were talking back and forth."
- natsfan1a - Sep 30, 2011 at 4:39 PM
Oh, wait. The Tigers are facing the Yankees. Of course, I'll root for them. Duh.

>> Former manager Jim Riggleman preferred athletic, versatile bench players who could fill in at multiple positions.<<…which perfect explains Matt Stairs' presence on the roster.
- Anonymous - Sep 30, 2011 at 4:52 PM
Anon945, I expect to see Rendon and Harper in starting lineup at Nats Park next year right after pigs flyover in formation in opening ceremony.AND… Teddy will win. Book it. Mark it. I be here to chortle in your ear when it happens Webster … Ha! And yes it'll be Zim at 2nd base. Why? Because Rendon is a consummate hitter THE BEST college hitter in over a decade according to many scouts. It makes NO sense to switch his position his first year in the majors. Ryan Zimmerman has been having problems at third with his throws. He has made a bunch more errors this year. A move to second, even if temporary may help him. Plus, the guy is a consummate pro who could make the change and make it work at an elite / ALL STAR level. Yes, Rendon at third base. Book it, mark it.
- Anonymous - Sep 30, 2011 at 4:57 PM
I still don't get defending Jim "Wrong Way Peach Fuzz: smart ball" Giggleman. He was wrong and his .443 lifetime winning percentage goes a long way to underscore that fact? The only excuse for Riggleman longing may be Jen who appears to have a romantic crush on the guy.
- rogieshan - Sep 30, 2011 at 5:23 PM
I sincerely hope the team seeks a better option than to leave Desmond in the leadoff spot. Although his baserunning and plate discipline have improved, it is still far from what the Nats need to compete at a higher level.
- Big Cat - Sep 30, 2011 at 5:40 PM
Was reading Kilgore in today's WP and almost fell over when I read that Rizzo had offered the Royals Zimmerman, Storen and Espi for Greinke. Had Greinke ok'd the deal, it would of went thru. Are you kiddin me? That would of decimated us. Sometimes the best trades you make are the ones you don't make.
- Eugene in Oregon - Sep 30, 2011 at 5:43 PM
Several deep-pocketed teams (most notably and obviously the Red Sox) will also be in search of starting pitching this off-season, which will certainly skew the free agent market, but might also open up some possibilities for trades. While I could easily envision the Nats letting Lannan go in a trade, I'm not sure who he might bring in return. Would the Red Sox or Yankees be willing to give up a decent OF (Riddick? Gardner?) for Lannan plus one? I have my doubts, but you never know.I could also envision one of the wealthier teams in search of a #3 or #4 starter dangling a bigger offer in front of CMW's agent than the Nats are willing to make (yes, I know the Nats have exclusive rights until just after the World Series concludes, but his agent will certainly be 'evaluating' the market).Finally, Harper's (and/or Rendon's) potential notwithstanding, the Nats definitely need another outfield bat to think seriously about contending for a playoff spot next year. Morse could easily be moving to 1B in 2013, opening up LF. And if Rendon develops quickly, he was drafted for his bat — not his glove or arm — and the Nats will find a place for him (mostly likely 2B or LF, as needed).Lots of possible permutations out there, lots of time before Spring Training, and lots more words to be written in this (and other) blogs…

Mike Rizzo emphasizes pitching and defenseDavey Johnson emphasizes the 3 run homerMike Rizzo + Davey Johnson = Earl Weaver? Also, does anyone have a list of who's eligible for arbitration? I can look over stuff later but if someone had something handy, I think Clippard is arb. eligible and he should be in store for a hefty raise following his All Star season.
- Mark'd - Sep 30, 2011 at 6:07 PM
I don't see Manager as #1 as we all know it is Davey. I am with SJM that Zim can't be a distraction going into 2012 with less than 2 years remaining on his contract. No reason not to make that the priority for October 2011.I like your #5 issue as Davey has to construct a bench in his vision and be accountable for it. During losses Davey was a excuse machine on his bullpen and bench.
- Scooter - Sep 30, 2011 at 6:14 PM
Big Cat, if that's the first you heard of the proposed Greinke trade, I kinda have to wonder whether you ever read anyone else's comments here (which raises the question of why I'm even saying this …), because, dude, you are not the first to say this.In hindsight, yeah, all those guys had pretty good seasons, so I'm glad they stuck around.
- Navy Nats Fan - Sep 30, 2011 at 6:18 PM
Big Cat, to pile on, the offer was Zimmermann plus two, not Zimmerman plus two. Still a bad trade, but a HUGE difference.
- Scooter - Sep 30, 2011 at 6:26 PM
Ha! I didn't even notice the Zimmer-person confusion. I assume it was a typo.And I just looked at my comment again, and it I think it reads a lot less kind than I meant it. Didn't mean to imply things can't be brought up again.
- Scooter - Sep 30, 2011 at 6:40 PM
Although, now I think about it, some folks might want to think about limiting themselves to grinding a particular axe no more often than, say, once a week. So, if you say on Monday that Rick Eckstein HAS TO GO!!! NOWWW!!!!!, then you have to wait till the following Monday to call for his job again.But that's just the one guy. I mean, for the rest of the week, you can still ask that other coaches or players be fired, DedFA, drawn and/or quartered, or ground up and used for next year's Nats Dogs. You just gotta wait on Eckstein.Anyway, it's a thought.

I agree that the manager issue is not an issue – if so, it's the worst kept secret in baseball. Getting Ryan Zimmerman long-term is essential. So – we can only post our negative, obsessive comments once a week? I am so sure that it's been over a week since I mentioned how much I really don't like Davey Johnson and wish they would get a younger manager that could stay with the team for a while. ok, done now for a week. 4:10 next Friday. He will probably be official by then. And — Mark, it's way past time for some new pictures of the little one! Finally – don't wait until your birthday to go and see moneyball!

Okay so I felt a real tug at the ol' heart watching to the thank you sent by the Nats to the fans via email. Yes, they did have a great year. It was a godsend losing Jim Riggleman as the manager … nice guy not a good major league baseball manager period. I guess I have to thank my lucky stars that we all weren't forced to live through another season followed by an offseason of deepest, profound discontent. Thank you Nationals for changing that completely the opposite way.

Mark you missed out on one important item, getting Ryan Zimmerman a better contract. Of course it's easy to pass over, he is signed through 2013 but you can tell my the way Zimmerman talks with writers that he would really like to take care of it now instead of next year or the year after.I see no reason to give Zimmerman a long term contract in the nneighborhood of what Werth got, maybe even more that gives him 8 to 10 years making sure that most of his career will be played in a Nats uniform.Really think this is one of the important items that Rizzo needs to take care of before Viera next year

Riggleman is old news; as folks in DC say, "Live with it." Riggleman had a better record than Johnson. Riggleman saw that it was his job to win games, hence things like batting the pitcher in the 8-hole. Worked, didn't it? Johnson saw that it was his job to set the table for next year. Hence being patient w/ Desmond, Wang, Detweiler, et al. Worked, didn't it?Are the Nats better off in the long run w/ Johnson? Absolutely. But Riggleman's record w/ Washington doesn't qualify him as a "bad manager."As to Francona, last time I looked, Johnson had the same no. of World Series rings and the second best winning pct. in baseball and had done it w/ five teams. Francona got a veteran team w/ five or six bona fide superstars to tune him out. Get real. People really ought to be embarrassed to make that suggestion.
- Anonymous8 - Oct 1, 2011 at 1:31 PM
Francona would have to adjust to the National League also which is a big adjustment but I would still say NO. The Nats don't need a manager who got his hardware (rings) with a Top 5 payroll.Now if Joe Maddon was available, in a heart beat!

I'd be curious to know what the organization's projected timetable for Rendon is. Zimmerman made it to the major's pretty quick IIRC, and Rendon was arguably the better college player.How quickly the nats expect to get Rendon up and what position he is going to play are questions that have to be addressed before deciding which players to acquire this off season.

Volquez makes first Dodgers start vs. Rockies
Righty has struggled at Coors Field; De La Rosa starts for Colorado
The Dodgers have their biggest lead in the division in 35 years, so they can afford to give struggling Edinson Volquez a shot to prove he can once again be an effective starting pitcher.
Volquez signed with the Dodgers last week after being released by the Padres, and he will make his first start with Los Angeles on Wednesday night as the Dodgers go for a three-game sweep of the Rockies at Coors Field.
Volquez has not enjoyed much success in his career at Coors Field, where he is 1-4 with an 8.39 ERA. In three starts at the ballpark this season, Volquez is 0-2 with a 14.92 ERA and has allowed 29 hits, including two home runs, in 12 2/3 innings. The right-hander is 0-4 with a 13.08 ERA against Colorado this year.
Still, the Dodgers want to see if pitching coach Rick Honeycutt can work some of his magic with Volquez, who had a 6.01 ERA this season with San Diego but won 17 games with the Reds in 2008. Honeycutt has already helped Zack Greinke and Carlos Marmol refine their deliveries this year, and he worked on mechanical adjustments with Volquez to keep him on line with the plate, rather than spinning off toward first base.
"I will be more comfortable with my delivery," Volquez said. "We worked one hour, let's see what happens. On the video we saw different mechanics. We worked a lot on hiding the ball. You can tell the difference with my hands. We'll see if I can do what they want me to do."
The Dodgers have won six straight games and lead the National League West by 13 1/2 games over Arizona, the club's largest advantage since 1977. Los Angeles has won 17 of its past 22 series.
The Rockies, meanwhile, saw their streak of three straight series wins end with Tuesday's 7-4 defeat. Colorado has dropped three games in a row to fall 10 games under .500.
Jorge De La Rosa will take the mound for the Rockies looking for his 16th win of the season, which would tie a career high. The left-hander is 1-1 with a 6.55 ERA in two starts against the Dodgers this season.
De La Rosa has been great at Coors Field, with a 2.74 ERA in 13 outings this year. He's pitched through a bruised thumb for much of the season, something that won't fully heal until the offseason. "It's a little sore," De La Rosa said. "I just have to keep pitching and help the team to win as much as I can."
Dodgers: Puig dealing with knee discomfort
Yasiel Puig didn't play on Tuesday after coming out of Monday's game in the sixth inning, the result of a strained right knee.
"I'm not going to put him out there until he's ready to go full speed," said manager Don Mattingly. "He's not the kind of guy that plays half speed."
Puig said he has played through occasional discomfort behind the knee for the past month, but it worsened during Monday's game. Still, Mattingly said the club does not believe the injury is serious.
In 80 games with the Dodgers, Puig is hitting .351 with 19 doubles, 14 home runs, 32 RBIs and 55 runs scored. When the outfielder swings at the first pitch, he's hitting .596 (34-for-57) with seven homers.
Rockies: Fowler returns to lineup
Dexter Fowler was back in center field for the Rockies on Tuesday after missing six games with a bruised left knee.
Fowler went 0-for-2 with two walks and a strikeout in his first action since Aug. 26, when he injured his knee trying to steal second in the first inning against the Giants.
• The Rockies promoted right-handed pitchers Mitchell Boggs, Manuel Corpas, Collin McHugh and infielder Ryan Wheeler from Triple-A Colorado Springs on Tuesday, taking advantage of expanded rosters.
Worth noting
• Dodgers first baseman Adrian Gonzalez is 12-for-32 (.375) lifetime against De La Rosa, with two doubles, three homers and nine RBIs.
• Rockies catcher Wilin Rosario is 8-for-18 (.444) in his career against Volquez, with two homers and nine RBIs.
