Veteran pitcher Garcia focused in return to Majors
Right-hander making Orioles debut in Anaheim matinee
Ready to prove all of the doubters wrong, Orioles right-hander Freddy Garcia will make his first Major League start this season on Saturday against the Angels in Anaheim.
The 36-year-old Garcia still believes he has what it takes to compete.
"They always say that about you," said Garcia, who signed a Minor League deal with Baltimore after he was released by the San Diego Padres this spring. "I really don't care because I always put up numbers, and that's all you can really do is keep putting up numbers. … I really don't care what people say. I just go out there and do my job."
Taking Zach Britton's spot in Baltimore's rotation after he was demoted, Garcia is ready to help a team that had to lean heavily on its bullpen in the first month of the season.
"Hopefully it's me [who takes advantage of the opportunity]," Garcia said. "And hopefully I pitch the way I know I can pitch and I can help the team win games and throw innings."
His promotion comes at the perfect time for the Orioles, as Garcia owns a career 16-3 mark with a 2.66 ERA in 28 games against the Angels, including an 8-1 record with a 3.18 ERA in 16 starts in Anaheim.
Meanwhile, Tommy Hanson will be on the hill for the Angels, looking for his third win this season.
He allowed just two runs on five hits in six innings of work on Monday, but took a no-decision in a 19-inning thriller against the A's in a 10-8 loss.
Hanson, who has tossed two straight quality starts, is 1-0 with a 1.64 ERA in two career starts against the Orioles.
Orioles: Machado finding timing at plate
• Third baseman Manny Machado attributes much of his recent success at the plate to simplifying things and trusting his abilities.
The 20-year-old infielder has hit safely in 18 of 23 games, while batting .340 (33-for-97) with 11 multi-hit games, 11 doubles, three triples, three home runs and 17 RBIs.
Machado, who will be 21 in July, is the only Orioles player under 21 to have a hitting streak as long as 11 games.
"There's such a thing as over-coach or manage early on," manager Buck Showalter said. "I just tried to leave him alone and just let him seek his level. I said a few things here and there."
Angels: Callaspo returns to lineup
• Prior to Friday's game against the Orioles, the Angels activated third baseman Alberto Callaspo from the disabled list. He joins shortstop Erick Aybar, who was activated earlier in the week.
"Finally we are back and we're going to give 100 percent to the team," Callaspo said.
To make room for Callaspo -- who has been on the disabled list with a right calf strain since April 19 -- infielder Andrew Romine was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake.
Callaspo hit seventh in Friday's lineup and finished the game going 0-for-2 with a walk and a run scored.
Worth noting
• Angels reliever Mark Lowe is eligible to come off of the disabled list Sunday but expects to make one more Minor League appearance. Lowe pitched two innings for Class A Inland Empire on Thursday night and plans to throw another two innings on Sunday.
• Orioles outfielder Nolan Reimold made his first start this season at leadoff on Friday night against the Angels and went 0-for-4 with a strikeout.

Beachy aims to continue improving facing Mets
New York counters with rookie Wheeler in opener of two-game set
The Braves have soared to a 15 1/2-game lead in the National League East, in part by beating up on teams within their division.
With Sunday's win over the Nationals, their 19th in their last 22 games, the Braves improved to 28-12 against Washington, Miami and Philadelphia. The Mets have been the exception, playing the Braves even through their first 14 meetings.
Atlanta will get the chance to change that on Tuesday night, when it opens a two-game set at Citi Field.
After Saturday's 15-inning loss to the Nats, the Braves had to alter their starting rotation. With Kris Medlen throwing 47 pitches over three innings of relief in that game, Brandon Beachy has been moved up to pitch on Tuesday.
Beachy is 2-0 with a 4.50 ERA in four starts since his return from Tommy John surgery. The right-hander struggled his first time out but has authored three straight quality starts since.
"Each time I've felt like I've moved a little bit in the right direction," he said. "Coming off the first one, just to put some zeros on the board over the next few, now I feel like I'm starting to work on sequences, throwing pitches and breaking balls for strikes and things like that. Hopefully, I keep moving in that direction."
The Mets will counter with rookie Zack Wheeler, who is 5-2 with a 3.43 ERA in 11 starts. The Georgia native already has faced the Braves twice, including in his Major League debut on July 18. He has given up three earned runs on eight hits over 12 innings in those outings, with seven walks and 12 strikeouts.
The 23-year-old blew away his previous career high in strikeouts on Thursday, racking up 12 K's against the Padres while walking one and giving up one run in six innings.
"I think he's made a vast improvement since he's been up here," Mets manager Terry Collins said. "He's a very astute kid. You watch him, he pays attention. He's not walking around, enjoying his time. He's trying to get better."
Braves: Heyward going off at leadoff
• Outfielder Jason Heyward slammed two home runs on Saturday, including a game-tying shot in the ninth inning, continuing the tear he has been on since moving to the leadoff spot on July 27. Before going 0-for-1 off the bench on Sunday, Heyward was hitting .375 with a 1.076 OPS in 20 games over that span.
With both Heyward and Justin Upton resting on Sunday, Joey Terdoslavich started in right field, with B.J. Upton in center and Evan Gattis in left.
• Second baseman Philip Gosselin got his first Major League start on Sunday and collected his first two career hits. Gosselin was called up on Friday after Tyler Pastornicky tore his ACL, and he went 0-for-2 as a late-inning replacement in Saturday's game.
Mets: d'Arnaud to stay in Major Leagues
Following their 6-1 win over Minnesota on Monday, the Mets announced catcher Travis d'Arnaud will remain in the Major Leagues. D'Arnaud was promoted from Triple-A Las Vegas on Saturday after John Buck left the team go on paternity leave.
Now that Buck's returning on Tuesday, the Mets had to send one of their catchers out. Instead of demoting d'Arnaud to the Minors, New York chose to option backup catcher Anthony Recker to Las Vegas.
Collins said the best way for d'Arnaud to improve is to keep him in the big leagues and allow him to learn from a veteran catcher like Buck. Recker, who was hitting .193 with five home runs and 16 RBIs, will likely be called back up once rosters expand on Sept. 1.
Collins said both Buck and d'Arnaud are going to see playing time.
"They're going to both play," Collins said. "Obviously Travis is going to be out there, but John Buck deserves playing time and he's going to get playing time."
In his three games with the Mets, d'Arnaud is 0-for-7 with five walks.
• With a solo home run in Monday's win over Minnesota, Marlon Byrd tied his career high of 20 homers in a season.
Worth noting
• The Braves' 15 1/2-game lead matches their largest of the season. Before this year, they had not held a lead that large since 2002, when they won the division by 19 games.
• The Braves are 4-3 at Citi Field this season.
• Beachy has never pitched at Citi Field and has faced the Mets only once, in 2011.

The Raven line is a hardtail Cross Country line with an aim at performance. This lightweight line takes advantage of carbon fiber frames to yield high performance. These carbon fiber frames are designed and crafted to exact specifications to ensure quality throughout. The frames also take advantage of the BB30 over sized bottom bracket. In doing so the Raven line is able to increase stiffness and strength in that key area. Furthermore carbon fiber drop outs reduce weight while increasing the load bearing capacity. Carbon fiber drop outs also create a solid and stiff place for the rear wheel to live. The Raven carbon fiber frame is super light and strong.
Focus has set the Raven out on the right path with this high performance frame it only seems fitting that Focus would outfit it full Shimano XTR. This Race ready group is super light weight and performance driven, just like the Raven frame. Together they produce an awesome ride experience. Having reliability on Race day is a huge issue. Knowing you can count on your bike to do the job you need is critical. Shimano 10 Speed shifters set the pace of smooth and reliable shifting while the XTR front and rear derailleurs add to the performance and reliability. The super light weight and stiff Shimano XTR FC-M985 cranks are power houses when it comes to performance and design. The entire XTR group was designed to provide you with the best experience possible. The Raven and this XTR race group complement each other in way you can only understand by hoping on and riding for yourself.
The Raven line may be a hardtail line but suspension is still a must. Keeping up with the quality standards that the Raven has set, Focus set their aim on a suspension fork that would complement the rest of the build. A Fox Shox 32F with FIT damper and Remote lock out was chosen. Fox is an industry leader in shocks and suspension. Continuously setting new standards and introducing new technologies, Fox Shox was an instant choice for the Raven 2.0.
Feature rich and race ready are just a few words I can use to describe the Raven. If you're looking for high performance and excellent quality then you have come to the right place. Focus has teamed up with industry leaders to bring you race ready and race proven performance.
As one of Germany's top bicycle brands, Focus has built a strong reputation for designing high performance bicycles for many areas of cycling. Whether it is Road, Cyclocross, Cross Country, or All Mountain, Focus is a leader in innovation and design. Focus focuses on creating and developing outstanding bicycles with an incredible price-to-performance ratio.

Eevee (Japanese: イーブイ Iibui) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.
Eevee is a mammalian creature with brown fur, a bushy tail that has a cream-colored tip, and a furry collar that is also cream-colored. Eevee has brown eyes, big ears, and pink paw pads. Its design appears to be based specifically on the Fennec fox, a small fox like animal that are found in desert like areas. It and its evolutions also have traits of raccoons, foxes, dogs, and cats. Eevee is said to have an irregularly shaped genetic structure, enabling it to evolve into multiple Pokémon. Its possible moves are: Tackle, Tail Whip, Helping Hand, Sand-Attack, Growl, Quick Attack, Bite, Baton Pass, Take Down, Last Resort, and Trump Card.
Eevee is an urban Pokémon and is found mainly near or even in cities. But it is possible that they live anywhere because they evolve to suit their surroundings. Eevee can be found in Kanto but is also found in Johto, Sinnoh and Unova.
Special abilities
Eevee can have either the ability Run Away or Adaptability. Run Away is an ability that will allow the user to run from any wild Pokémon battle, negating the effects of moves that prevent running away like mean look and block. Adaptability increases the users STAB from x1.5 to x2.0. Eevee are Pokémon with unstable genetic codes. This gives them the ability to evolve into eight different evolutions triggered by the environment, time of day, or the usage of the evolutionary stones Water Stone, Thunderstone, and Fire Stone.
Eevee can evolve into one of eight forms. These forms are: Jolteon by use of a Thunderstone, Flareon by use of a Fire Stone, Vaporeon by use of a Water Stone, Espeon when leveled up with high friendship during the day, Umbreon when leveled up with high friendship during the night, Leafeon when leveled up in Eterna Forest or Pinwheel Forest, Glaceon when leveled up on Route 217 or Twist Mountain, Sylveon through unknown events..
In the anime
Eevee first appeared in The Battling Eevee Brothers. A little boy named Mikey was hiding the Evolution Pokémon from his three older brothers because they wanted him to evolve it. However, when Mikey's Eevee single-handedly defeated Team Rocket, they were able to accept the fact that Mikey wanted to keep his Eevee just the way it is. Ash's longtime rival Gary Oak uses an Eevee of great quality that eventually evolves into Umbreon. May has an Eevee that hatched from an egg, which she used in Pokémon Contests all across the Kanto and Johto region. When May traveled to Sinnoh, she took it to Route 217 to evolve into a Glaceon. The Kimono Girls who first appeared in the Pokémon Gold and Silver games, also make an appearance with their Pokémon (all of which are evolutions of Eevee) in Trouble's Brewing. The youngest of the Kimono girls had an unevolved Eevee (the only of the sisters to have one), though it evolved into an Espeon later on in the episode "Espeon, Not Included".
In the game
Pokemon Yellow: Is your rivals starting Pokemon
Pokemon Conquest : As the starter of the player's Pokemon.
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Red/Blue : Must be naive nature and female gender to become this Pokemon as the player.
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon : Explorer Of Sky : Must be jolly nature and female gender to become this Pokemon as the player.
In the manga
Pokemon Adventures
In Pokémon Adventures, Red is in possession of an Eevee which had been experimented on by Team Rocket. As a result, it could transform back and forth from the three evolutions Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Flareon along with its base form, allowing it greater tactical ability in fighting other Pokémon. Eventually, it evolved into an Espeon, losing its special ability to interchange abilities.
Electric tale of Pikachu
In the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga, the character Mikey (who appeared in the anime episode: "The Battling Eevee Brothers") makes an appearance with his own Eevee and within the chapter that he appears in, Mikey attempts to prove to his brothers that he doesn't need to evolve his Eevee to win battles.

Generation I
- Main article: Eevee/Learnset Generation I
Generation II
- Main article: Eevee/Learnset Generation II
- So far, Eevee is one of ten Pokémon to have more than one evolution, and one of two to have three or more, and is the only Pokémon that has four or more.
- Eevee is a common Gift Pokémon.
- "Eeveelutions" is a common fan term for Eevee's evolutions. It originally wasn't recognised by Nintendo or Gamefreak however the term made an appearance in Pokemon Ranger Shadows of Almia.
- Eevee was the first Pokémon that had a different evolution depending upon the time of day.
- Its name is a palindrome, meaning its name is spelled the same backwards as it is forward. Only three other Pokémon share the same trait: Ho-Oh, Girafarig, and Alomomola.
- Eevee and Gloom are the only two Pokemon that can evolve into several other Pokémon using multiple element stones.
- In the Pokémon Special manga, Red owned an Eevee that had undergone genetic mutation, due to Team Rocket's experiments, allowing it to evolve and devolve and evolve again. It is noted that it went from Jolteon to Flareon to Vaporeon, and then back to Eevee. This power was available through an ear device that causes harm to Eevee as it evolved or devolved. Eventually it trusted Red enough to evolve into an Espeon, losing the ability to devolve.
- Eevee is given to the player in most of the Pokémon games.
- Eevee has been featured as a starter Pokémon in three Pokémon games. The first was in Pokémon Yellow where the player's rival received an Eevee as his starter. The second was in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness where the player begins the game with an Eevee which he received at some point prior to the events of the game (though the specifics of how long the player's character has owned the Eevee and the circumstances under which he received it are not revealed). The third is in Pokémon Conquest where the players receives an Eevee as his/her starter. Also, in Pokémon Colosseum, the player begins the game with two starters which are both already evolved Eevees (namely the two evolved forms introduced in the Generation 2 games, Espeon and Umbreon).
- Eevee's evolved states (for example, Espeon and Umbreon) can defeat one another. Umbreon can defeat Espeon, since Espeon is a Psychic-type, it wont hurt Umbreon if it uses a Psychic-type move.
- Out of all of the Eeveelutions, Umbreon is the only one that isn't at a type disadvantage to another.
- Espeon is weak against Umbreon; Flareon is weak against Vaporeon; Vaporeon is weak against Jolteon and Leafeon (although it's moves do normal damage on Jolteon); Leafeon is weak against Glaceon and Flareon (although it's moves to normal damage on Glaceon) and Glaceon is weak against Flareon (also, Glaceon's type is weak against Vaporeon and Jolteon's is weak against Leafeon).
- Espeon is the only Eeveelution that doesn't have a type advantage against any of the others.
- Eevee and the Eeveelutions currently hold the record for the most amount of types in one evolutionary line with 8.
- Eevee's form is based on one of a fennec fox.
- All of the Eeveelutions have a base stat of 130 and another of 60.
- An Eevee will be bonded to the player in Pokémon Conquest
- Eevee is the Pokémon with the most evolutions using elemental stones so far.
- In the Eeveelution chain, all Pokémon after Eevee have "eon" at the end of their names.
- All Eeveelutions are of a singular type, none have the same type as another, all share the same base stat total and all share the same gender ratio (1 female to 7 males).
- It is a possible choice for the hero in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Red, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Blue, and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of the Sky, if the player is female and of a specific nature.
- In Pokémon X & Y, a new Pokémon, Sylveon, was introduced.

works best in a shell script run at startup. It will ping localhost once and output to null, after it does that, acpi is called for temperature in fahrenheit and piped through to another loop that feeds notify-send for a tooltip. After waiting five minutes, it will start over.

Only slightly different than previous commands. The benefit is that your "watch" should die when the dd command has completed. (Of course this would depend on /proc being available)
This command are using by me for checking connection with Internet.
Gives not only date but also some interesting status about the System
this command will beep like an alarm for one minute from 18:57. you can change "1857" to your desired time.
you should have alsa-oss package installed, and you should also be root or part of "audio" group.
Watch the temperatures of your CPU cores in real time at the command line. Press CONTROL+C to end.
GORY DETAILS: Your computer needs to support sensors (many laptops, for example, do not). You'll need to install the lm-sensors package if it isn't already installed. And it helps to run the `sensors-detect` command to set up your sensor kernel modules first. At the very end of the sensors-detect interactive shell prompt, answer YES to add the new lines to the list of kernel modules loaded at boot.
Just replace 15m with desired time. no suffix or 's' for seconds; 'h' for hours
You need to be root or in audio group to write to /dev/dsp.
You may use yes | head -n 2000 for about 1 second beep.
Wrote this as echo -e '\a' not always works as desired (ex. visual bell)
requires sp-auth installed
This command will auto kill sp-sc after vlc is closed, so u wont have to do it manually
Just a simple way without the need of additional tools. Of course, replace eth0 with your IF.
until (ssh firstname.lastname@example.com 2> /dev/null); do date; sleep 15; done
In this case will execute "date" then "sleep 15" until we are able to ssh into server, such as after a reboot
Could also be like:
until ( ping 10.1.1.39 1> /dev/null); do echo "server 10.1.1.39 is down"; sleep 15; done
Countdown clock - Counts down from $MIN minutes to zero.
I let the date command do the maths.
This version doesn't use seq.

Getting there: a long ride through Senegal
Trip Start
Aug 26, 2007
Trip End
Dec 16, 2007
but by 7:30 am the next morning-or whatever time our brains thought it was after all the time zone changes-it was back to travelling: an 8 hour bus ride through senegal then a ferry trip to Banjul, finally arriving at Happy camp in Kanifing Estates around 6:30 pm. This is my journal entry from the bus ride:
We've seen so many new things on the bus ride, my eyes hardly know what to do with themselves...and my brain is even more confused. As the colorful "Gambian Tours" bus pulled away from Hotel l'Ocean, I was amazed, clutching my camera and constantly snapping photos of anything I could see from my window. And based on American standards, everything WAS amazing and picture-worthy. But looking back on the pictures later on in the ride, many of the pictures seemed boring and mundane. I guess it's all a matter of adjusting... and never having been out of the country before, I didn't anticipate this.
Dakar is a dusty, crowded, colorful city covered in dirt, both of dilapidation and of development. Construction weaves in and out of crumbling buildings with almost no sense of order. This sense of confusion was heightened by the fact that we wandered lost for about an hour through these streets as soon as we left the hotel. The city is spotted with familiar cars, signs, and products - Nestle seems to have a strange hold on this region especially - but everything is different. A horse cart is parked in front of a Coca Cola billboard, a boy selling slabs of raw meat from a shack by the road is wearing an Eminem shirt. There are many things that are sad for a middle class American girl who spends most of her time in the suburbs. Some people, both old and young, are flopped down on the side of the road, as if they had no plans or goals for the day...they show no emotion, movement, or life, really. But for the most part my brain is not forming many intelligent judgments. Everything is too new for me for that part of my brain to be working, it is far to distracted by simply seeing. To take a quote from Chinua Achebe's Man of the People, "I was not making those judgements at the time, or not strongly anyhow. I was simply too fascinated by the almost ritual lifting of the clouds, as I had been one day, watching for the first time the unveiling of the white dome of Kilimanjaro at sunset. I stood breathless.." Many people seem happy anyway. The people we pass by often stare at us wide-eyed tubabs in our "Gambia Tours" bus, peering from the windows of our self-enclosed cage, barreling through Senegal, only extending our touch towards the people on the streets for a random purchase of candy or cigarettes (not for me, mom and dad;)). I feel like I am in a very strange social arrangement, and I'm not quite sure how to act in it.
There are a couple of things I've noticed. Though traffic was hellish in Dakar (lanes do not exist, and at one point we were speeding by going the opposite direction of all the other cars on a road, and I don't even think we were doing anything wrong by Dakar standards), the roads are paved better than I-70 going through Missouri. Even out of the city, in the country this remained true for quite a while.
Also, though men and children peer at our bus from the side of the road, and little kids yell "tubab, tubab," the women show almost no sign of seeing us. They walk by with high chins and straight backs, often with colorful clothes and maybe eggs or a bucket balanced on their head and seem far to dignified to acknowledge such a spectacle as our bus.
The whole group was very happy to make it out of the city. As the surroundings went from dirt to lush greenery we stopped coughing so much and could actually breathe. We were even happier to cross the Senegalese border into The Gambia. Stopped at customs, before passing into The Gambia, little kids as well as people around our age surrounded our bus, sticking their hands in the windows and asking, sometimes demanding, money, pens, gifts...anything. This was my harsh initiation to a question I've been struggling with for the past few days. It is completely logical that they need money, clothes, etc. more than I do, and would appreciate what I give them more than I do. Yet I cannot just give away my money and belongings like that...there must be some sort of plan and organization and moderation. Besides, the way they demanded things hardly inspired compassion. We gave away all the pens we had, but the same people would come back demanding more, threatening to cry, and not moving their hands from the window. I ended up partly angry, partly guilty, partly confused, but mostly just wishing these sorts of interactions didn't exist (that people wouldn't act this way, and that such inequality didn't exist to make them act this way, and that it wasn't so easy to shelter oneself from the reality of that inequality that this could be a completely new situation for me) In the Gambia, people were very friendly, asking us about America and our lives and generally being ridiculously friendly. But then, one or two times, they would eventually ask us for money or a favor, and we would again be burdened with the idea that we might have to question the true motives of any person we meet...In fact, I think of all the experiences I've had here, that has been the most confusing. I'm simply not yet sure how to fit comfortably into this position of a tubab in Africa. Luckily I have plenty of time to work this out, and I'm really excited to do so.
