Low F, lowlight, almost no Chromatic Aberration
fixed focal length, lens hood is SHORT
I used to use this lens on a Minolta SLR cameras, then started using a Sony A350 and now a Sony A55, this lens is the one I go back to ALWAYS for lowlight and clear corner to corner images.
If you are taking photos with your camera for reproductions ( paintings, art, etc ) this is the lens to use, for portraits this is also a great short range lens with short focal length to make the subject pop!!! LOVE IT!!!

a decent $300 prime
very very very limited-use
This looks remarkably like the Sony 50mm F1.4 that I bought and tried on a 5D, and returned, so maybe this is at least halfway-legitimate.
I just wanted to say that light flare of the type mentioned here is pretty common, the lens that I tried had it at first, pretty bad, until I took the UV filter off the lens and then it went away.
This is not a bad lens but it suffers from the same problem as all primes. This is a decent prime. I can't comment on the build quality, to me it is "plastic body" and looks nice but easily scuffed and the coatings seem adequate, the lens is definitely clear with good color and low distortion. I doubt that it is all that great of a value at the $300 retail price that I paid for one...unless you were to compare it to the $1200 prime which it could be, I guess.
I could see carrying one of these in my pocket for those portrait/museum shots, especially on a KM/Sony camera with body IS. That's about all that it would be good for, but a generic zoom will have way too much distortion at wide-angle for museum shooting and need to be stopped-down to F8 to match the sharpness of this lens at F4. On the other hand you could shoot it at a moderate focal-length to minimize distortion, and then the only problem would be the 2 stops of speed lost to excess DOF...given a *great* body or good light this is not a problem, and I think that in general primes are really going the way of film for this reason. They are really of use only when the shooter needs either a very-short DOF with decent center-sharpness (because the lens is not going to be sharp across the frame even at F2) or the absolute minimum of distortion at a fixed, moderate focal-length. That's, like, "orthogonal" to my usual needs, but I can see the utility of this lens. It would be fun to shoot landscapes with it and see just what it would take to match the overall IQ with a decent zoom lens. But it would never be as stable as a shorter lens in low light, or give me the FOV, longer shots and tighter crops that I now take for granted with a good superzoom.
Given the price, size and scope of this lens, as a prime in and of primes, it's a good deal. If a prime makes sense, a decent $300 F1.4 prime makes a *lot* of sense. It is not going to be legendary either for its sharpness near wide-open, or for the hit on your credit-card balance. The resale value of a $300 lens, I wouldn't worry about too much. Last but not least as the front element is recessed pretty far down into the lens, it's not all that easy to scratch but still it could be done. But hey if it *does* get scratched, it's a $300 lens and now that Sony has picked up the line it's about as generic a prime as they come. No problem. Definitely a good second-lens.
Actually apparently now the thing to do is to read on the Internet and find an old prime, like a KM Hexanon prime, and adapt it to fit your camera, so if you don't mind MF and you want a good prime really cheap there is quite a market for them on eBay. Definitely worth looking into if you like primes.

Fast. lightweight, tack sharp, good build, portable, fast focus.
Hi, I am writing this review as I think an injustice has occurred by the review that is first on the list. This especially because there is only one other reviewer who had problems with his Minolta 50 F1.4 autofocus and down rated it.
I have used my copy of the 50mm F1.4 for 25 years as I purchased it when the first Maxxum came out with the crossed xxs. It is and has always been my favored lens either with film or the APS digital sensors.
I find that it is tack sharp and is in fact the sharpest lens that I have and equals the two 50mm F2.8 macros (one the old Minolta and the other the new Sony) at the same aperture and at same distances. I have had the 28mm F2.0, 28-135 F4.0-4.5 (which is basically a G lens but was produced before the G designation was first used). I also have the beer can 70-210 F4.0. In addition I have three 50mm 1.7 (picked up on ebay with oil and repaired with help from Peter Gantz and the pbase site). And I have a sigma 18-200, 75-300 APO, and several smaller zooms. So when I say that it is the sharpest lens that I have that is compared to the others above.
It gives beautiful bokeh and at 1.4, where it is centrally tack sharp, everything outside of what you are focused on is nicely blurred. A lot of people don't understand lenses well and state that this or that lens is soft at 1.4 and downrate it for that. But in fact all lenses are softer at 1.4 or wide opened than they are stopped down two to 4 stop where performance is maximal. So the comparison should be which manufacturers lens is softest at 1.4. Nikon, Canon, Pentax, and Olympus also have the same softness and even more than the Minolta. Every site that I have been to that has done formal testing (like photodo.com as well as several others) routinely rate the Minolta 1.4 above both the Nikon and Canon varieties. Even this site rates the Sony 1.4 very high. And the coatings on the Sony 1.4 appear to be the very same as on the older Minolta models – I have personally looked at that and see no differences in the colors of relative intensities of the reflections by looking into the front and rear of both lens.
The reason that the prior reviewer did not like the lens was because of flare wide open with a strong light – such as street lights. I have tried taking pictures in this mode and see only barely visible images of the lights 180 degrees away. But once again any lens this fast and wide open is prone to this aberration as well as the fact that some sensors may accentuate this.
So my rating of the lens is a 10, but that takes into consideration the alternative lenses available as well as the stopped down performance. I feel you have to compare apples to apples. And you can't derate a lens because the performance at 1.4 is not as good as at F5.6 as that is a given fact with any wide – fast lens.
Another consideration, in regard to the old Minolta and new Sony version is that the Minolta's exterior is all beautifully finished metal and the Sony has this soft rubbery stuff and is partly plastic. As some of you know this coating deteriorates in time and the lens will look terrible. The older version is a better value in my humble opinion as 100 years from now the case of the lens will look the same as it does today. I feel the rubber coatings on the Sony stuff will have peeled, flaked, and fallen apart in ten to fifteen years. Then see what the resale value becomes.
And lastly, I have used this lens frequently and hard over the past 25 years. I must have more than 25,000 shutter actuations on it and it has never given me the slightest hint of a problem. Nothing else speaks as well for its reliability and endurance. You will not be disappointed with this lens either for the APS or full frame sensors to come.
I hope this review was helpful to you. If you agree and have used this lens please write a review giving your accurate appraisal.

Small, light, fast
75mm eq not so useful on 1.5x crop, flare.
The 50 1.4 was one of the first lenses that I purchased for my 7D... (the other two being the Tamron 28-75 2.8 and the Sigma 70-200)...
And it is also one of my least used.
That is not to say that it is in any way, shape or form a bad lens. Its small form factor is very useful for social situations (less 'intimidation factor'), it is very fast...
The problem with the 50/1.4, Imho, is two fold.
First... the natural versatility of the the 50mm is really lost in a 1.5x camera... on the 7D, it becomes a 75/1.4... still a very respectable lense- but for portraits, not general-purpose... So its the perfect low-light portrait lense, right?
Not so fast, because the other problem with the 50/1.4 is, at least my copy (Type I), is flare... not so much veiling flare, but point flare of light sources in your image are VERY prominent... any light fixtures or point lights (landscape or indoor) are rendered in almost perfect detail 180 degrees away from the image's center in ghostly green... this makes the lense practically worthless for any type of night shooting (unless you go to great lengths to keep any form of light source out of your image)... Perhaps its just the coatings on my older copy have worn out - but its really sad - the fastest lense in my bag is worthless for the type of night shooting that fast lenses are good for...
So whats left? portraits? Yes, indeed its a good bright portrait lens- but then what's the point of the F1.4? In fact, my Tamron 28-75 F2.8 is every bit as sharp throughout its entire range, gives me more portrait flexibility, and since the 50/1.4 is near worthless at night - the added speed isn't even an advantage...
This is not to say, in any way that the 50/1.4 is a _bad_ lense... in fact, it has spectacular image quality, and with very careful framing can take wonderful low-light images wide open... My biggest problem is that, while it is a wonderful optic, its few downsides are such that they cancel out all of its advantages, leaving a lense that spends far too much time in my camera bag and not on my camera...
In short - a great peice of glass...
But save your money - buy elsewhere.
Recommended options-
For General Purpose Prime:
Sigma 24/2.8 - cheaper, same size, better FOV, no flare
Anything 36/1.8 - 50mm eq
Minolta 36/1.4 G
For Portrait:
Tamron 28-75/2.8 - More versatile, better in low light (because it doesn't flare).
Minolta 85/1.4 G - Better Portrait length, better image quality.

The Nationals try to get back to .500 tonight at Citizens Bank Park.
PHILADELPHIA — It's a cold, windy and rainy afternoon in Philly right now, though the skies are beginning to clear and there's not expected to be any precipitation worry for the game tonight. It will, however, be chilly, which certainly won't help the Nationals' cause as they try to get their bats hot.
Nothing too dramatic with Jim Riggleman's lineup tonight. Wilson Ramos is back in behind the plate and batting fifth. Jerry Hairston is again in center field, suggesting Rick Ankiel's right hand remains an issue. Alex Cora starts at third base tonight after Brian Bixler got the call last night.
Jason Marquis starts for the Nationals, looking to continue his early season run of success. He'll be opposed by right-hander Vance Worley, a 23-year-old rookie thrust into the Phillies' rotation after Joe Blanton went on the DL.
Updates to come throughout the evening…

Nix has played more games in CF than any other position. I don't know how good he is there, but it must mean that he is passable. Why not give him a start against a RH?
- Les in NC - May 4, 2011 at 8:14 PM
A golden opportunity for our team to take another game from the Philthies. I hope, and pray, that our lineup can send their rookie (Worley) back down to the minors with a bad taste in his mouth!
- Knoxville Nat - May 4, 2011 at 8:19 PM
With Marquis pitching tonight the bottom of the lineup just got stronger. In fact the entire lineup just got stronger.

Go Marquis!!! Go Nats!!!
- Nattydread - May 4, 2011 at 9:36 PM
You have to think Rizzo is shopping around catchers. That seems to be the only hitting position we have right now. With Ramos and Pudge on the 25 man roster, and Flores and Norris in the minors, we have very good chips there. Surely we could package a catcher (anyone not named Ramos) with an AAAA pitcher for a decent top of the line-up outfielder? Now?Right now we need someone to spark the line-up the way Morgan did two years ago. Power will not be a problem when our hitters wake up.In the mean time — this is a solid team. I'm not panicking yet. We haven't been blown out of games. 4-1 vs Hamels and the Philly line-up is respectable.Marquis is hot right now. Gotta figure Werth will do better today.
- JaneB - May 4, 2011 at 9:50 PM
I agree Knoxville! I'm starting to wish Marquis could play some other position the four days he isn't pitching. Almost any other position, so we get his bat!
- Frediemac - May 4, 2011 at 10:06 PM
Please tell me that they won't be using the excuse that's it's cold that they can't hit the ball. Does anybody know why LaRoche using a bat with holes in it?
- Frediemac - May 4, 2011 at 10:10 PM
I hope the Nats don't trade Norris. I believe he's much better than Flores and potentially better than Rodriguez because of his age. Just deal Flores then Pudge before the Trade Deadline.
- wally - May 4, 2011 at 10:22 PM
Does anyone know if Strasburg has started throwing off a mound?
- Mark Zuckerman - May 4, 2011 at 10:24 PM
Wally: Not yet. Trust me, when that does happen, you'll be reading about it here and plenty of other places.
- Grandstander - May 4, 2011 at 11:00 PM
Flores has big question marks surrounding him that would limit his value in a trade. Pudge is the clearer trade target once he has time to build his value. If he can get back into his form he was in the first half of last year, he should be able to fetch us a close-to-the-majors prospect from a contender. Catching is thin around MLB we're really sitting on a goldmine.

Mark, was this mentioned anywhere that there was a scoring change on Ramos 2nd hit against Bumgarner? I see it was now changed to reached by error on Tejada in the game Sunday.
- Wally - May 4, 2011 at 11:44 PM
Thanks Mark. Just doing the math, it looks like he probably won't be coming back this year. Is there any rule of thumb to go by there?
- Sec 3, My Sofa - May 4, 2011 at 11:53 PM
Wally, yes: look for him when you see him coming.Srsly, 12-18 mos, depending.

Sec 3 – agreed, I was just speculating. He is about a month behind where JZimm was at this time last year, and he came back at the end of August.No biggie, it will be what it will be. Like I said, just speculating.
- bgib - May 5, 2011 at 12:07 AM
It looks like LaRoche is praying for a walk every time up now. Whether the injury is affecting his swing or not, why in the world do they continue to bat him fourth?
- Mark Zuckerman - May 5, 2011 at 12:08 AM
Andrew said…Mark, was this mentioned anywhere that there was a scoring change on Ramos 2nd hit against Bumgarner? I see it was now changed to reached by error on Tejada in the game Sunday.Yes, they changed the scoring of that play right after the game ended. Thought I mentioned it here, maybe I only posted it on Twitter. Was definitely the correct call in the end.
- Wally - May 5, 2011 at 12:13 AM
Marquis off to another good start. Jonah Keri speculated on Fangraphs today that Marquis may actually have become a different pitcher (ie better) because he is throwing his change up much more than in the past. K rate way up (for him) and walks way down. Not sure why that has any effect on walks, but otherwise an interesting read.
- Andrew - May 5, 2011 at 12:14 AM
Mark, I agree that it was the right call and I am sure Bumgarner's ERA appreciated it too.I figured you probably mentioned it somewhere. When MASN put up Ramos' Batting Average I knew they must have adjusted the at-bat and I went back to the game log.Thanks!

This is one of those games where I'm done being upset and screaming at my TV and have moved straight to depression. This team really breaks my heart sometimes.
- Anonymous - May 5, 2011 at 1:18 AM
This team stinks. It was only a matter of time before the pitching regressed. Failure is now in everyone's head. Hold on for a 0-9 road trip!
- Golfersal - May 5, 2011 at 1:23 AM
Just trying to see what is reality and fact.Is the Nationals just this bad or is the Phillies just this good?The scary fact is that we aren't even seeing the Phillies at there best and we caught a break in the starting pictures for this serie.After two loses (I think we wll lose the game tonight) it's up against Mr. Holiday tomorrow.Joy

Gotta blame this one on Riggs for getting thrown out of the game for arguing balls and strikes…And Mclaren for watching Marquis labor through the 5th then waiting too long to pull him out in the 6th. Its not like our pen has been taxed in recent days, c'mon man!
- Anonymous - May 5, 2011 at 1:36 AM
Seems as if this part of the fan base is turning a corner. That's unfortunate, but understandable. Something has to happen on this trip–if they come back 2-7 or so a lot of us are going to tune out.PS I think Riggs getting thrown out was deliberate–trying to stir things up. Didn't work.
- CBinDC - May 5, 2011 at 1:47 AM
the fan turned ages ago …..that is why just telling to wait does not work anymore ….the fan base is tired of losing and disappointment and after tonight the DC sports fan base is not getting better it is getting worse ……almost disaster worse This is something TV crew still does not understand.
- Anonymous8 - May 5, 2011 at 1:49 AM
Lincecum went 7 innings of shut out ball tonight, and Greinke went 4 innings of 4 earned run ball tonight.

- dryw - May 5, 2011 at 1:50 AM
And Matt Stairs has a batting average…..

…and Matt Stairs stays on the roster with a Pinch Hit single. In other news, Rizzo pops the champagne!

- JaneB - May 5, 2011 at 1:54 AM
Okay, we lose, but Stairs hit AND Danny got a homer. That's something.Now Matt can quit and we can bring up Bernie.

JaneB, from your mouth to Rizzo's ear!
- Les in NC - May 5, 2011 at 2:03 AM
With 2 outfielders dinged up, I'd say Matt "Stares" is on the outs anyway, JaneB. At least I hope he is….

Once again, I vote for JaneB for GM for her prescient comment:Now Matt can quit and we can bring up Bernie.
- Doc - May 5, 2011 at 2:26 AM
JaneB for GM…….and Hmmmmm, I got it….the Anonymous Brothers for manager by committee. In time we'll figure out the hitting and pitching coaches.
- Manassas Nats Fan - May 5, 2011 at 2:32 AM
We are the fans who care that is why we are restless.Ray Knight hit the nail on the head, and I have been preaching this for three years. The hitting approach the teams is doing is terrible. They swing for the fences too much for a team with mediocre power. Way too many strikeouts. This is a team of contact hitters, and they play like they are 8 Ryan Howards each at bat. They should approach it as 8 Tony Gwynss. Unfortunately they they think chicks dig the long ball. I always found out growing up Chicks dig wins more.

Andrew said…Mark, was this mentioned anywhere that there was a scoring change on Ramos 2nd hit against Bumgarner? I see it was now changed to reached by error on Tejada in the game Sunday.Yes, they changed the scoring of that play right after the game ended. Thought I mentioned it here, maybe I only posted it on Twitter. Was definitely the correct call in the end.It may have been the correct call, but an error should be called on the Nationals Park official scorer negating the change. He waited until several pitches into the next at bat to even call it a hit in the first place. By that time the replay had been shown on the big screen in the ballpark and presumably also in the press box, giving the scorer everything he needed to make up his mind. If he's going to take that long to make the call, he should be stuck with the call he makes. This is definitely not the first time this kind of thing has happened, either. Play happens, scorer takes forever to make the call and then a little bit later he reverses it. Ridiculous. Make a decision, dude, and have the cojones to stick with it.And whatever happened to the concept of the home team scorer giving players the benefit of the doubt and scoring such plays as hits in their home ballpark? It's as old as baseball itself. Yet another reason DC is not a true baseball town.

Rugose Spiraling Whitefly Control
Rugose Spiraling Whitefly
Rugose Spiraling Whitefly – Customer Information Sheet
In March, 2009, a whitefly (Aleurodicus rugioperculatus Martin: Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae), was collected in Miami‐Dade County from gumbo limbo. This was the first report of this insect on the U.S. continent and it is believed to originate from Central America. Since the initial find, there have been numerous other reports, all in Miami‐Dade County. It will likely spread to other southern Florida counties.
The most noticeable symptoms of an infestation of this whitefly is the abundance of
the white, waxy material covering the leaves and also excessive sooty mold. Like other similar insects, these whiteflies will produce "honeydew", a sugary substance, which causes the growth of sooty mold. The actual effect of an infestation on the health of a plant is unknown; however, whiteflies in general can cause plant decline, defoliation and branch dieback.
What are Whiteflies?
They are small, winged insects that belong to the Order Hemiptera which also includes aphids, scales, and mealybugs. These insects typically feed on the underside of leaves with their "needle-like" mouthparts. Whiteflies can seriously injure host plants by sucking nutrients from the plant causing wilting, yellowing, stunting, leaf drop, or even death. There are more than 75 different whiteflies reported in Florida.
NOTE: This is not the same whitefly (ficus whitefly) that is currently causing defoliation and branch dieback of ficus in south Florida. via UFL

Romance, Musical
After nearly a decade, an unexpected phone call shakes Dia out of her dance rehearsal in New York. Makarand, her teacher, her guru, is dying and she must return to Shamli town. The town where she grew up, the town where she learned to live and to dance. Also the town she left on an impulse, severing ties with her parents and her people. It is a poignant and troubled return; not only has her guru passed away but the institution that he so lovingly nurtured is in decay and under threat of demolition. Ajanta theatre, the once vibrant hub of the community, the place where Dia's fondest memories are embedded must now be brought down because the local political authorities feel it a waste of prime real estate. With the help of Doctor, the caretaker of Ajanta, Dia sets out on a mission to prevent the destruction and resurrect the spirit of Ajanta. In an atmosphere of mistrust, ridicule and active hostility, Dia picks up the gauntlet and agrees to achieve the near impossible task of putting together a theatrical production. She must also ensure that every member of the production is from Shamli town. She has only two months to prove her point or the bulldozers will be waiting.

What is there to be said about saddles. It's either comfy or it's not. Well i've been pretty happy with this particular one. It's fairly light weight and i can still feel my rear end at the finish of a long day of riding. Good durable material, lightweight rails. All in all a good saddle.

Veteran Peavy, young Gausman meet in rubber game
Red Sox righty seeking support; O's righty aiming for consistency
Jake Peavy is battling through the season, often coming up winless as he watches balls leave the yard.
The veteran Red Sox righty hasn't picked up a victory in his last 12 starts, something he'll look to change when he takes the mound against young righty Kevin Gausman and the Orioles on Sunday at Fenway Park.
Peavy has given up 17 home runs in 17 starts, posting a 4.82 ERA and 1.44 WHIP. In June, his ERA was 5.40 and opponents hit .287/.344/.490 against him.
The Red Sox have scored two runs or fewer in 13 of Peavy's 17 outings, so even when he's been good --- like the two runs over six innings he allowed Monday against the Cubs, who shut out the Boston offense that night--- he hasn't gotten help.
"You just go out and try to give your team the best chance that you can give them on that night to win," Peavy said. "And I've got to do a better job of that. It's going to change. This isn't going to keep happening. I promise you, I've got my head down and working. It'll change. There's going to be games where we score five, six, seven runs on the day I start. I'm not going to believe that this is how it's going to be for the next 16 or 17 starts."
Gausman, meanwhile, will make his first start since June 27, when he allowed five runs on seven hits and four walks over five frames. The Orioles have shuffled their 2012 first-round Draft pick around the system this year, calling on him in June for four starts with Miguel Gonzalez injured.
The 23-year-old made three quality starts in June while a regular in the rotation. But in that last outing he struggled with command, throwing 50 strikes on 95 pitches against the Rays.
"I think we all search for the why, but a lot of it just has to do with a young pitcher having an inconsistent day today," Baltimore manager Buck Showalter said.
Red Sox: Drew shows power in doubleheader
• Public opinion can often be fickle and swaying, so maybe it will change on Stephen Drew soon.
Drew has had a rough start to 2014, posting a .136/.174/.182 slash line in 19 games entering Saturday. But in the twin bill against the Orioles, he broke out.
Drew homered in both games of the doubleheader, getting the Red Sox on the board for the first time in each. The last time he went deep twice in the same day, Drew hit two homers against the Orioles on June 27, 2013.
His first long ball Saturday came in the second inning of Game 1, when he sent a solo shot over the right-field bullpen. In Game 2, he did the same to a similar spot, but it was a two-run shot in the fourth.
"It's something that I've dealt with my whole career," Drew said of the scrutiny from fans and media. "Everybody deals with it. I know my talent and I know it was going to be tough coming in the way I started. I'm going to keep my head high and it's going to come around."
Drew went 2-for-6 in the two games.
Orioles: Machado returns to lineup after suspension
• Manny Machado's five-game suspension ended after Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader, and he played third and batted seventh in the nightcap. He went 2-for-5 with a double and two strikeouts.
Machado went through a long appeal of the ban, which was eventually upheld. He received it for throwing his bat down the third-base line against the Athletics on June 8. The 23-year-old also got into an altercation with Oakland third baseman Josh Donaldson in that series. Both incidents resulted in bench clearings on both sides.
Worth noting
• Red Sox slugger David Ortiz missed the first game of Saturday's doubleheader because of his daughter's high school graduation in the Dominican Republic. He was back in the lineup batting fourth during the nightcap.
• The Red Sox called up lefty Tommy Layne as their 26th man for the second game of Saturday's doubleheader. The 29-year-old has made 40 relief appearances with the Padres in the last two seasons.
Layne inherited a pair of runners with one out in the sixth and the Orioles leading 6-4. He walked the first batter he faced on four pitches, but retired the next two to end the inning.
• Mike Yastrzemski --- grandson of Red Sox great and Hall of Famer Carl --- hit for the cycle Saturday for the Frederick Keys, a Class A affiliate of the Orioles. He completed it with a triple in the ninth and finished 5-for-6 with five RBIs. The Keys routed the Lynchburg Hillcats, 17-3.

After a mostly successful road trip, the Nats are back home tonight.
It's been 11 days since the Nationals last played a home game, and plenty has transpired since then. There was a sweep at the hands of the Phillies in Philadelphia, then an impressive series win in Florida, then a near-sweep of the Braves in Atlanta before a collapse last night.
We've seen Laynce Nix essentially take over as the starting left fielder in place of Michael Morse. We've seen Roger Bernadina take over as the starting center fielder while Rick Ankiel is on the DL. We've seen Drew Storen essentially take over as closer and be incredibly effective at, too. (Did you know he hasn't allowed an earned run since his first outing of the season?)
And, of course, we saw Nats Insider go down for about 21 hours. Thankfully, the issue has been resolved. There are still several postings (and hundreds of comments) missing from late Wednesday and all day yesterday). If you happened to miss my article on Bryce Harper's vision correction and the local optometrist who has worked with him, here's a link to that.
Thanks to everyone for your patience through this. I'm back at the ballpark tonight, and I'll have updates throughout, so please check back often…

It feels like forever since the last home game. Can't wait to sit in what might be a light drizzle, have a dog fish head and watch a game. Then do it all again tomorrow.
- Ernie - May 13, 2011 at 8:05 PM
I'm heading out tonight too. Ready to cheer loudly for the national anthem. (Gene – your alter ego isn't DC Washington is it? Did you get to pick a cool pseudonym when you become an anthem singer?)
- Les in NC - May 13, 2011 at 8:27 PM
I really wanted to "vent" after last nights meltdown, but when I tried to log onto the NI website, as everyone knows by now, I couldn't. Probably a good thing…. But I also did not get to see other fans whining about exactly what I had on my mind so there was no one to commiserate with me. No therapy, per se. I've since slept, so I'm relatively calm now. I still don't like it, but I'm getting over it. ….still think we (read Riggs) could have or should have done something other than what he did though….There I said it, whew. Ok, moving on.
- Manassas Nats Fan - May 13, 2011 at 8:27 PM
2 out of three again this weekend.A little more hitting please.
- Cwj - May 13, 2011 at 8:37 PM
I'm very happy the Nats went 4-5 on this past tough road trip. Of course, 9-0 would have been nice as well :)Go Nats!
- natsfan1a - May 13, 2011 at 8:38 PM
Welcome back, Mark, Nats, and fellow Insiders. There, that should cover it. I likely won't make it to the ballpark this week due to life and workload getting in the way. I hate when that happens. Will be there in spirit, though, and watch on tv, whether in real time or after the fact.Oh, and go NATS!!
- JD - May 13, 2011 at 8:39 PM
Les, What should he have done?? and if you didn't think of it before it happened then it's second guessing and it doesn't count. My thoughts at the time were to keep Zimm in because he came out after a soft single to Gonzalez but I always want my starter to stay in until he shows signs of fatigue such as leaving pitches up and losing the bite on the breaking stuff. But since Clippard was unavailable I had absolutely no problem with using Burnett; as far Slaten; he was effective for 2 innings and the Nats were in BP preservation mode last night so I have no problem with leaving him in for 3. In conclusion; the results stung but there was nothing wrong with the moves.
- Knoxville Nat - May 13, 2011 at 8:50 PM
Agree with JD, the moves Riggleman made last night were okay, unfortunately those involved in the moves, especially Brunett just didn't come through as we would have liked.
- Gene - May 13, 2011 at 8:51 PM
Sound check. Instead of bombs bursting in air i heard livo crack some to deep center Watching bp in front row. If you're in the stands, don't listen. SING!
- natsfan1a - May 13, 2011 at 9:02 PM
Go get 'em, Gene. You, too, Livo!
- sm13 - May 13, 2011 at 9:14 PM
"Bulpen preservation mode" is a fine excuse, but Broderick and Henry Rodriguez were still available. Why was Riggleman unwilling to give Zimmermann a chance to get out of the 7th while he was pitching one of the best games of his career, but left Slaten in for the longest outing of his career? How will our young pitchers ever learn to get out of late-game jams if Riggleman gives then the hook every time? I hope Gorzo makes Riggs give him a chance to go deep in the game tonigt. Go Nats!!
- Anonymous - May 13, 2011 at 9:28 PM
Nats paid a big price last night for carrying two mop-up relievers (Rodriguez and Broderick) on their roster. This forced them to stay with Slaten, who didn't have it.
- Anonymous - May 13, 2011 at 9:32 PM
Easy sm13, because if Riggs would have left Zim in and they scored a couple of runs everyone would be screaming that he left them in too long and asking why isn't Burnett pitching.The reason Broderick and HRod weren't in, no confidence in Broderick and HRod throws the ball in the dirt or a ball as many times as he throws a strike.Riggleman made good decisions with Zimm and Burnett last night, they didn't work out, it happens sometimes. With a team that will be lucky to go .500 this year it will happen more often than not.I think the sooner everyone realizes that this is not the Phillies or Yankess and the team isn't going to win 100 games, the lower the blood pressure will be.-Don
- Grandstander - May 13, 2011 at 9:36 PM
There were no "bad" moves last night. You can kinda hindsight critique them but I never jumped outta my seat and screamed at the tv. He probably should have left JZimm in to try and get out of the 7th, but with a high pitch count and a 4 run lead, he probably figured, "what's the worst that could happen? Burnett walks the pinch hitter and then gives up a grand slam to Prado? Haha, no chance that'll happen."What is going on with Burnett? He seemed like he was unhittable in the beginning of the season and he's just collapsed. Is there a possible injury situation? Are we going to DL him like we did to Gaudin and bring BallyStar back up?
- Gene - May 13, 2011 at 10:00 PM
Just met the Z man! (mark z, of course).
- JD - May 13, 2011 at 10:01 PM
Grandstander, Like I said there was not much with Burnett last night; on the walk to Conrad he had him struck out but didn't get the call and Prado spoiled 3 or 4 nasty pitches before the homer. It happens; he's a very good hitter.
- Unkyd - May 13, 2011 at 10:06 PM
I hope our guys were watching Prado! I'd like to see them start spoilin' some nasty pitches, themselves…..
- Cwj - May 13, 2011 at 10:15 PM
Yeah, Burnett will probably be fine. I'm not terribly concerned about him.
- Unkyd - May 13, 2011 at 10:22 PM
Alright, Gene….Iced Tea, with lemon… Just sips, then after they say PlayBall!!! Hit up the Dogfish Head!!!!!
- dj in Fl. - May 13, 2011 at 10:31 PM
I think Riggleman stuck to the plan with Zimmerman last night. They are not going to let him get to an exhausted state, and start over throwing this early in his return. Rizzo needs to pull a couple of trades so a couple of guys can go back down to finish school.This working without a full roster is old to me, while Riggleman must have nightmares about running out of options.
- sm13 - May 13, 2011 at 10:50 PM
I understand that sometimes deciisons don't work out as planned, but I still think Jordan needs to learn to pitch out of jams in later innings. He only gave up a walk & a bloop and his manager lost confidence in him in a hurry. To mis-quote Yogi, half of becoming a #1 starter is 90% mental.
- Big Cat - May 13, 2011 at 10:52 PM
Checking the stats, Clip, Burnett and Storen had all thrown 2 days in a row going into last nights game. So I partially agree with Sad Man that he had to "save" his pen for tomorrow. Here is the question. If you can't pitch HRod or Broderick in close games, then you might as well get rid of them. Why are they on the team. Everyone says we aren't the Phillies or the Yankees….blah blah blah. Trust me, we are narrowing the gap everyday. Sadman….get HRod and Brod in the game.
- Manassas Nats Fan - May 13, 2011 at 11:30 PM
Eck working hard I see. How hard is it to take a third strike? Werth doing what Eck says swing at pitches when you feel like it.
- Unkyd - May 14, 2011 at 12:00 AM
Attaboy Desi!
- CBinDC - May 14, 2011 at 12:04 AM
Ok did I hear the sound correctly was Werth booed in that last at bat?
- Buyer's Remorse - May 14, 2011 at 12:08 AM
Is it too late to return Werth?
- Oldguy - May 14, 2011 at 12:10 AM
Plenty of players have gone sour after a trade, so Werth is not alone. But he got booed for his second strikeout, once looking and once swinging at two bad pitches. The talk about Eck makes no sense to me. As Werth said recently, he's been hitting baseballs since he was 6 years old. How is any coach going to change what he does? It's in his head. Besides, if you really want to work on a swing, you do it in ST, not during the season. If someone like Werth needs coaching at this stage of his career, he's not worth his pay. He'll figure it out. Or not.
- CBinDC - May 14, 2011 at 12:11 AM
This is a feeling like a replay of last year only they were over 500 before falling into the abyss that is a Nationals season ….last year they had a game on the road where all looked great and then BAM they lose in extras and never recover ….and at that time it was all "things are just a little off" and "they will come around"…and another season lost
- CBinDC - May 14, 2011 at 12:17 AM
People do not boo easily around here …..Dunn strikes out 4 times in his last game here and he gets cheered …..Werth has reached a level now that is going to make the situation harder …..people are running out of goodwill
- WilliamTells - May 14, 2011 at 12:19 AM
I know this is crazy, but if this thing gets close in the late innings…I think you have to pinch hit for Werth or LaRoche at this point. I trust Cora to at least swing at a close pitch with two strikes.
- Unkyd - May 14, 2011 at 12:23 AM
Is this the same Laynce Nix who was 'sposed to help out, from the bench…."just in case"?

Falling into the abyss, CB? Really? How does that stuff even creep into the mind, after after taking two series, from division rivals, on the road?Baffling pessimism. Really.

The abyss was a past tense reference and if you did not think the seasons in years 08 09 10 did not feel like and endless abyss well I guess I am pessimistic…..I think they are trap in a cycle and if they have any chance to break out you have to recognize the cycle …but I really do not mind if they prove me wrong since I want a positive outcome ….you know whistling in the graveyard ….that is why I bought a Willie Mo Pena ball….I figure the negative energy it contains would act as a magnet to attract positive energy
- MicheleS - May 14, 2011 at 12:55 AM

- MicheleS - May 14, 2011 at 1:08 AM
Responding to an earlier post about Storen. I am sure whoever suggested the trade was on some serious mind altering drugs… My personal opinion…. Storen is the next Trevor Hoffman…. I know.. I have had to much of the KoolAid, but I honestly believe that. The Kid has the same makeup!

Some exciting baseball this past week – sometimes a little too exciting. It's kind of odd that the action is coming from the most unlikely people, too. On opening day, we would not have predicted that Laynce Nix and Bernie were providing the action.

no amount of good defense is worth watching la roche choke time after time after time. we may have won a game or two with his scoops at first, but could we not have equally won a few games if we had a first baseman that could hit the baseball??
- masnstinks - May 14, 2011 at 2:22 AM
Odd how LaRoche and Werth just cannot be relied on when it counts. I know that Werth hit two home runs this week but most of his at bats he just really looks bad. Maybe the bottom of the line-up can come through again. These extra inning games are messing with my sleep!
- Anonymous - May 14, 2011 at 2:41 AM
Too bad Pudge wasn't catching.
- Manassas Nats Fan - May 14, 2011 at 2:44 AM
On the Dobbs hit Werth did a great job, Hairston did a good job, Ramos did a swipe tag, when the ball was so much ahead of the runner all you had to do is lay the glove down. So I give him an F for the play. That was definitely and easy out given away.
- Unkyd - May 14, 2011 at 2:50 AM
Right. We'll get 'em tomorrow!!!
- CBinDC - May 14, 2011 at 2:54 AM

- Ribuld - May 14, 2011 at 2:57 AM
The Roach and Nix need to trade spots in the batting order.
- LoveDaNats - May 14, 2011 at 3:01 AM
I had a sinking feeling as soon as I saw Broderick warming up.
- Manassas Nats Fan - May 14, 2011 at 3:04 AM
Batters 3,4 and 5 killed us tonight. Went 0 for 12. For comparison Marlins 3-4-5 wernt 5 for 14 3 runs 3 RBIs and 2 homers. When will Werth and LaRoche start earning their money. As for Ramos I remember early in Little League our coach taught us, you do a swipe tag when the ball is late, and just simply place the glove between the runner and the base if it is early. Do swipe when early. I must had a better Little League coach. But alas I couldn't hit a curve ball, but I knew how to tag.
- The Perfectionist - May 14, 2011 at 3:06 AM
Love Da Nats the game should still be going on despite Broderick. Ramos forgot what we all learned as kids don't swipe tag when the ball is early. Someone above mentioned they were coached that. I was too.
- Bobby Knight - May 14, 2011 at 3:10 AM
Just as I suspected would happen. The pitchers qre fading as soon as we start scoring runs. The last 4 games we have 7,7,5,5 runs. If the pitchers did what they had done til then all 4 are wins, but no they start pitching worse as soon as runs are scored. Come on MCCatty don't let up on them kick some tail.
- Manassas Nats Fan - May 14, 2011 at 3:13 AM
Bobby K. not sure why the pitchers have become lax. I am still not thrilled with the hitting as they waste a lot of down the middle pitches. I am disappointed that the pitchers have slacked off, but tomorrow is another game. Losing close games usually comes down to executing little things, like place a tag instead of slapping one.
- Andrew - May 14, 2011 at 3:47 AM
We could have used Mr. Walkoff (Zim) tonight as there were so many chances as Michael Morse was ohhhh so close.Play of the night was Bernadina commiting ROGGERY.
- Ernie - May 14, 2011 at 4:19 AM
A few thoughts after attending an exciting game, even with the loss:1. I was ready to give the old "good job" to Gene anyway but that was awesome! People in my section were commenting on it. Sing at more games!2. Why on earth did they play Cee-Lo Green's "F You" during the middle of the third to greet the troops? I cannot think of a more inappropriate song. No one around me could figure it out either.3. There was no noticeable Marlins cheering section at the game tonight. Every boo you heard (and there were enough) was from a Nats fan or a generic attendee.4. Broderick is not only wasting a spot another pitcher could use, but you could just feel the energy level disappear when he entered the game. LIke we were conceding. Even if we hold him all year, isn't this the kind of thing–putting him into games he's not prepared to succeed in–that's supposed to hurt a guys confidence and wreck him as a pitcher? How is this helpful? Is there a threshold where he performs so badly that we get rid of him, or are we stuck with him no matter what?Even with the loss, it was fun to see hits and Bernadina's play was one to remember. Losses like this would have been highlights last year…
- sjm308 - May 14, 2011 at 4:39 AM
Might be the best catch I have ever seen live.Real tough loss. Probably goes untalked about but the double play by Ramirez and their secondbaseman when we had two one and no one out was also a major league play, I thought Bernadina would beat it out but they were perfect. How long do you keep Werth and LaRoche at 3/4 and to be honest, Ramos has done nothing in his last 6 games, batting ave. is now under .280 which is a huge fall from .390. We do scratch and claw and if Ramos makes that tag the game might still be going on. Important, at least for me, that we come back tomorrow and win big. I still remember last years slide from 20-15 and seriously don't want to go through something like that again.Go Natsps: Great National Anthem Gene and when I pointed out to my son who you were he recognized you. That also means I have to be careful what I write since he reads Mark and the comments. Had both sons with me at the park and the only thing better would have been a curly W (also caught a T shirt up in 308!!)
- Grandstander - May 14, 2011 at 4:56 AM
Grats to Gene on the anthem, very good!I'm so glad someone else mentioned the song choice for the military appreciation deal. What was that? Especially given the actual lyrics (that may not be written on this blog), seems like a totally weird song to play for that moment. It's still better than God Bless the USA though. Man I hate that song. There's got to be a happy medium. The sound guy also messed up Werth's walk up song twice. Tonight was a heartbreaker, but oddly enough, I'm not really upset. We played good baseball. Werth and LaRoche stunk up the joint, but that's nothing new. Good crowd, good atmosphere, first game back after a better than expected road trip. Tomorrow, I'm hoping for some revenge against Sanchez. I want to walk out of the park with more than my eco-friendly tote bag.
- Drew8 - May 14, 2011 at 4:58 AM
Remarkable play by Bernie. Great play be Infante. Entertaining ballgame, despite the result.The Nats got two fine pitching performances down on the farm tonight. In Hagerstown A.J. Cole was much improved in his second turn, giving up one earned run over four innings to lower his ERA to 3.52. He must be on a tight, precautionary pitch count as he stretches out.(Some kid named Harper extended his hitting streak to 17 games.)At AA, Brad Peacock moved 'em down in Richmond, striking out 14 and giving up just one walk. He's now 5-1 with a 2.13 ERA.
- natsfan1a - May 14, 2011 at 12:59 PM
Wasn't at the game so missed the anthem. Sounds like a poor choice on the troops salute music. Wonder whether someone pushed the wrong button or something?Loved The Catch and look forward to seeing it on year-end highlight shows.
- Manassas Nats Fan - May 14, 2011 at 2:36 PM
Mark can you find out about the song choice for honoring the troops. We here do not approve.

As far as I know, it does not contain any caffeine. Because it's not actually "tea" but just Honey, Gensing, and Mint infused in water (when you steep). There's no leaves from the tea plant, which is the source of caffeine.3 years, 5 months ago

Great question.A natural flavor is defined as an essential oil, essence or extract of a spice, fruit, meat, dairy or plant.
A natural flavor must come from a natural source and cannot be synthetically manufactured.
A federal regulation defines what items can and cannot be considered a natural flavoring.
Some examples of natural flavorings would be lemon oil, almond extract and garlic extract.
Flavor manufacturers certify that their flavors contain only those substances approved by the Flavor Extract Manufacturers Association.
Thanks for asking.

Comment by Jim Campbell, Citizen Journalist, Oath Keeper and Patriot.
Obama's track record has been fraught with doom each time he steps in usually too late to help is Muslim Brothers.
Come on we are only talking $32 million more taxpayer dollars added to the deficit what's the problem?
This time he is attempting to help those that are going against the jihadists so I seriously wish him well.
Once again we get to help or French friends who are in over their head, vote against us at the U.N. but are helping them in a fight they have not the will to finish.
Pass the brie, a bottle of some champagne and some white flags will you?
That's my story and I'm sticking to it, I'm J.C. and I approve this message.
Au revoir !
The Blaze
SEVARE, Mali (AP) — The Obama administration is seeking an additional $32 million to train African troops to fight Islamic extremists in Mali.
State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland told reporters Friday the request had been made to Congress.
The United States is not providing any direct aid to the Malian government because the democratically elected president was overthrown in a coup last year.
However, it has been providing aid to the French-led mission, transporting French troops and equipment to Mali.
France has some 2,400 forces in the West African nation but says it wants African nations to take the lead in fighting the extremists who rule northern Mali.
The French-led operation began on Jan. 11 after the militants surged southward from their strongholds and took the town of Konna, later recaptured by government forces.

Tons of performance without breaking your budget! Riding, training, racing on them for years. If you paid me, maybe I would switch! :)

I have ridden quite a few tires and this is my first choice at any price. Must be stretched out for a few days and still more difficult to mount than most but I feel they are on to stay. Oddly, I seem to have fewer cuts than with Sprinter Gatorskins. In my 27 years of cycling I have never known of a tire that holds pressure like these Continentals (Gatorskin or Sprinter). Vittoria CX loses 50 psi overnight with latex tubes but these may loose 50 psi per month.

I have been using the Sprinter on my Zipps for several years and have been very pleased with the handling and grip. This is a quality tyre, and ProBikeKit has an excellent price for it.

If you or someone in your family gets measles, family members may need to be vaccinated or given immune globulin.
Ask your doctor if the vaccine is right for you. In general, avoid the vaccine if you:
