After a dismal road trip, the Nationals return home tonight to face the Padres.
There's no sugar-coating this: The Nationals are reeling right now. They've lost five in a row, having just dropped seven of eight on the road. Their $126 million right fielder made some cryptic comments the other day about the need for change. The clubhouse vibe, for the first time this season, is not exactly an upbeat one.
But if ever there was an opportunity to snap out of this funk and get things going in the right direction again, this is it: A weekend series against the equally reeling Padres, who have lost five of six and boast the majors' worst lineup. John Lannan, who hasn't pitched particularly well this month, needs to take advantage of this matchup.
With Clayton Richard on the mound for San Diego, Jim Riggleman is going with what appears to now be his regular lineup against lefties. That means Brian Bixler in left field over Laynce Nix, a career .192 hitter against left-handers.
In other words, first team to score tonight wins. Check back for updates…

I can't really disagree with the choice of Bixler, but it's not a good sign your "upgrade" is a guy hitting .239 career vs lefties, and .118 overall this year.That said … go Nats!
- Big Cat - May 27, 2011 at 8:01 PM
Man….its gloom and doom in Washington. I am glad Werth spoke up. Shake things up a little. Couldn't do any worse. The rats will start jumping off the ship as it continues to sink. I'm tired of hearing about the hitting. Shut em out tonight Lannan and we'll win. Boy, if ever we need a shutout….tonights the night. Lets go Nats!

Here is Fangraphs take on the possibility of the Giants acquiring pudge:Although Ivan Rodriguez is probably the most available catcher on the trade market and still carries quite a bit of name value, there's little to suggest that he can help a team win baseball games at this point in his career. Now 39 years old, Rodriguez hasn't been a productive hitter for several years, and he's bottomed out in Washington with a .256 on-base percentage so far in 2011. In fact, Dan Szymborski's ZiPS projections actually suggest that he's a worse hitter than Whiteside at this point, and his once-legendary defense is hardly an asset anymore.Rodriguez has carried heavy workloads before, but his body isn't what it once was, and he likely would have to share time behind the plate with Whiteside. The upside of making a deal is that the Giants would be able to avoid giving significant at-bats to Stewart, so acquiring Rodriguez would represent an upgrade to the team as long as Rodriguez wouldn't get much more playing time than the superior (and younger) Whiteside.
- Doc - May 27, 2011 at 8:37 PM
Bixler vs. Nix: When it comes to hitting LHPs there's not a lot to expect from Nix, the last time I checked his career stats. All a manager can do sometimes is play the probabilities, and Bixler is, unfortunately, the only alternative.
- masnstinks - May 27, 2011 at 8:42 PM
Supposedly our hitters like hot weather and home games – we're playing the Padres. Last Friday we scored a lot of runs. Does any of this mean anything? Not in the game of baseball, folks. We'll get what we get and none of it will be predictable. Probably why we like it! Go Nats!
- Wally - May 27, 2011 at 8:55 PM
JD – their report seems a little harsh, especially the part about defense, but I definitely agree that there won't be a great prospect coming back. Maybe a Travis Ishikawa (who I think that we could have had on waivers, IIRC). I bet Pudge doesn't get traded because (a) Rizzo values him more highly than anyone else will, and (b) they don't think Flores is ready to play twice a week (needs regular ABs after missing all that time)
- Cwj - May 27, 2011 at 8:55 PM
The Nats absolutely must sweep this series. Time for Lannan to prove that he should remain in the rotation.If he can't handle this lineup, what lineup can he handle? Go Nats!
- raymitten - May 27, 2011 at 8:57 PM
I'm not sure Werth "spoke up", because he really didn't say anything. He fueled a lot of speculation about what he meant, but if you're gonna speak up, say what you mean and own it. I'm a big Werth fan but I think his cryptic comments did no good for anyone — including himself.

C'mon Morseheads, is no one going to mention the two scoops he made from our intrepid SS? Ok, the first one as a one hopper, but second one was very nice.

Tough time for a rain delay for Lannan, he was on on a roll. I think that this is the third time it has happened to him this year.
- TimDz - May 27, 2011 at 11:56 PM
There will be a bit of a delay…just went through this cell in Stafford (the trees went at a 45 degree angle for a while there). The good news is that the weather passed quickly…Lannan looks good so far…hopefully, the system will pass quickly…
- Feel Wood - May 28, 2011 at 12:22 AM
Everyone has always said that Clint is nothing but a Ryan Seacrest wannabe. Dick Clark has a stroke, who's there to step right in? Ryan Seacrest. Jerome "falls ill" and who's there to step right in? Clint.No coincidence that the thunder hits and the skies open shortly thereafter. The world is coming to an end, one week late.
- Anonymous8 - May 28, 2011 at 1:32 AM
Sorry, I would be pinch hitting for Lannan and go to the bullpen. 7 full shutout innings from Lannan and give it to the 'pen.
- Anonymous8 - May 28, 2011 at 1:33 AM
I almost ate my words there. Nice pop on that one Lannan.
- Anonymous - May 28, 2011 at 1:34 AM
Definitely Lannan should have been pinch hit for … here's double-switch Riggleman not pulling the double-switch (as he should) for a Riggleman 'fav' guy. Inconsistent and incompetent: Interim Jim Riggleman.
- Mark'd - May 28, 2011 at 1:40 AM
Whether Lannan makes it through this 8th or not facing the bottom of the order, Lannan should have been pinch hit for.
- Anonymous - May 28, 2011 at 1:40 AM
If they lose this game: that's "ON Rig and his coaches" as Boz would put it.
- Anonymous8 - May 28, 2011 at 1:46 AM
See, this isn't second guessing. This was written before Lannan put 2 on base. Just not the situation you want to be in a 1-0 game.Should have handed a clean inning to Clippard and if you got to a lefty then have Burnett finish him off and then Storen to get a clean 9th inning.
- Mark'd - May 28, 2011 at 1:50 AM
Anon8, it is smart baseball as you pinch hit for him as the smart play. This isn't the 5th inning. Storen got them out of trouble luckily.
- JaneB - May 28, 2011 at 1:50 AM
I'm glad it was Storen and not another HRod experiment.
- Andrew - May 28, 2011 at 1:59 AM

- Anonymous - May 28, 2011 at 1:59 AM
Actually H-Rod first followed by Storen would have been the best solution JaneB. But H-Rod has worked a lot recently … and so … here we are … again this loss on Rig and his coaches.
- Anonymous - May 28, 2011 at 2:00 AM
Time for a change … I'm betting on Werth showing big smiles and a long sighs of relief when that happens … he is already tired of Giggleman Island reruns.
- Sam - May 28, 2011 at 2:01 AM
Why, exactly, would it have been better to bring in Rodriguez before Storen? Storen is the best reliever on the team, hands down. 2 outs, 8th inning, tying run on second. That is the perfect time to bring him in. No questions asked. I'm really proud of Riggleman on that one. He just happened to make one bad pitch in the 9th.
- Sam - May 28, 2011 at 2:03 AM
On a different note, any reason Cora came in for Bixler? Why couldn't Bixler have grabbed his infield glove and moved to 3B? Was it so important to bring in Cora as part of a triple switch?
- Andrew - May 28, 2011 at 2:05 AM
MICHAEL MORSE is on FIRE!!!!Well deserved!!!!!!
- Les in NC - May 28, 2011 at 2:05 AM
Thank you Morse for cleaning up this mess!

Thank god for "In Giggleman's dog house" Michael Morse … saving your hash Rig. Sheesh. Wanna double-switch for the guy now ???
- Ivan Tuski - May 28, 2011 at 2:12 AM
wow, did we need that. great managing and some clutch plays. It is time everyone takes a deep breath and enjoys baseball in Washington.:-)
- Anonymous - May 28, 2011 at 2:12 AM
Michael Morse now ties Zimmerman with 4 homers in 4 games. Would you double-switch for Zimmerman Rig?
- dryw - May 28, 2011 at 2:13 AM
Michael Morse!!
- Anonymous8 - May 28, 2011 at 2:18 AM
San Diego stinks but the Nats defense was great as the Nationals bats couldn't get clutch hits again so my frustration is that 1-0 had to hold up. Riggles had the perfect opportunity to pinch hit for Lannan and go to Clippard for the 8th and Storen for a clean 9th. Michael Morse bailed Riggles out.
- Drew8 - May 28, 2011 at 2:19 AM
Well, I've never been so pleased to be wrong.I criticize the Nats for not bringing up Marrero and Morse goes off.I hammer Lannan and he throws a gem.As that famed scout Michael Corleone used to say:"Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in."P.S. If any of you are going to Saturday's game, I'll be the guy in the Nats cap.
- Doc - May 28, 2011 at 2:24 AM
Someone needs to tell me what LaRoche does at 1B that Morse can't–man, what a play to stretch and catch that ball in the early innings. I wonder if Riggleman knows what Morse is doing for this team, both AB and in the field.I too am surprised that Riggleman didn't double switch Morse. Rizzo needs to double switch Riggleman!
- Anonymous8 - May 28, 2011 at 2:28 AM
I am another Riggleman guy but have no problem criticizing him when he goes bone head.He needs to study his own work. Pinch hit for Lannan. If you don't have confidence that Clippard can go 1-2-3 against the bottom of the Padres odor (mis-spelled on purpose) then shame on Riggleman because the Padres STINK!
- Drew8 - May 28, 2011 at 2:40 AM
Dunn — 5 homers, 22 RBIs, .186Morse — 6 homers, 20 RBIs, .288Wow.
- Sam - May 28, 2011 at 2:57 AM
@Anonymous8: I don't think it was a bad move at all. Lannan was dealing and had only thrown 77 pitches. Plus, no one on the bench can hit worth a crap. You can't predict the future, so Riggleman had no idea Lannan would seemingly fall apart (although, I would have left him in to face Denorfia).It's about time the starters went more than 6 innings. You can't rely on Clippard, Storen, Burnett, et al every day. Sure, there was an off-day yesterday, but one isn't good enough. The less you have to use them the better.

1 more win to win the series. Lets get it done tomorrow.
- NatsJack in Florida - May 28, 2011 at 3:10 AM
Two ponts in a win that I do not undertand.In a game you are winnibg 1 – 0, why does your starting pitcher hit with a runner in scoring position in the bottom of the 7th, and in the same inning, who in the hell let Desmond swing away at 3 – 0 with a man on first THAT JUST FRIGGIN WALKED? WITH NOBODY OUT!!!We won this game in spite of Jim….
- Anonymous8 - May 28, 2011 at 3:14 AM
Sam said… It's about time the starters went more than 6 innings. May 27, 2011 10:57 PM -________________________________Sam, he pitched 7 full innings. With men on 1st and 2nd, and a 1 run lead, go to a pinch hitter and give Clippard the 8th inning.ALSO IN CASE YOU DIDN'T HEAR, GORZELANNY TO THE DL FOR ELBOW INFLAMMATION

Hot Diggidy Dog….We Won!!! Go Nats!!!
- SonnyG10 - May 28, 2011 at 3:24 AM
I was going to rip Desmond tonight for swinging on the first pitch after a 3-0 count, when the batter before him walked…he should have taken at least one pitch; then later on he strikes out on a passed ball and just stood there instead of running to first base right away. By the time he did run, it was too late.But all's well that ends well.
- Grandstander - May 28, 2011 at 4:52 AM
Some of these comments are ridiculous. I mean, I'm in the "negative camp" I guess, because I'm like, realistic. But why would you pull Lannan when he was under 80 pitches in the 7th and cruising with a 1 hit ball game? I wasn't angry at all even with the outcome. Pulling him would have been moronic, but as soon as it was clear he was tired, Riggs got Storen, basically our only reliable, 100% reliever to get the last out.He made a mistake to Bartlett, but are you really not going to have Storen pitch there? I mean, seriously? He messed up but he recovered.Also, not bringing Bixler to 3rd, really? Really? Bixler was only in tonight because he was right-handed. Put your best defense out there. Smart move in that place after Hairston was tossed. The only move I saw that I thought was dumb was Espinosa's steal, setting up Bixler's iBB to get Lannan out. But I'm not even sure that came from the bench.Overall, an awesome win, so much fun and energy at the park, even with the delay. I guess we know what it feels like to face us, because Lannan pitched a gem.
- dryw - May 28, 2011 at 11:16 AM
Drew8, what a coincidence…you will be the guy named Drew in a Nats cap, and I will be the girl named Dryw in a Nats cap! Think we're twins?NatsJack…I'm not convinced there is much in the world that can prevent Desi from swinging his bat, even on 3-0 after a walk. The boy does love to swing…

"What is a GIF?" That's a question that many people might be asking themselves after the news on Monday that "GIF" was chosen as the Oxford American Dictionaries' word of the year. After beating out the likes of "YOLO" and "superstorm," GIF will definitely be a word that enters the public conversation more and more in the near future. However, sports fans are already a bit familiar with the unique word, as GIFs are responsible for some of the most interesting sports content on websites today. A GIF, short for "graphics interchange format," is a certain kind of file type with a unique ability to display animation. As such, the file has allowed sports fans to relive some of the more offbeat and irreverent actions from around the sports world. From Michelle Jenneke's viral pre-race routine to a Kobe Bryant death stare to a mascot falling flat on its face, GIFs have helped capture some of the most hilarious moments in sports for us to enjoy over and over and over again.

How are you? Haven't heard from you in a while! Is everything okay?
Jorge, Thank you for the gift. I pray that you will get what the Lord wants to do in your life. Just glorify His Name and praise Him for everything in Your life. Give Him praise as praise opens up the door! Mean it, though, because He knows the difference. I hope that your wife is better. God bless you and yours.
Jorge, Hope you are doing well! Looking forward to talking with you soon! Have a great weekend!
Jorge, Hi! Haven't heard from you in while! Hope you are doing well!
Good morning, Jorge! Hope this finds you well!
Hope this finds you well!
Thanks for the add! Nice to meet you Jorge, God Bless!
Jorge: So nice hearing from you. The new job is loads of fun - and challenging as well. I've been off this site mostly. Very busy with my new job, and with my writing. I now have two mystery books out - e-books on http://www.lebrary.com. Color Me Dead and Deadline, and am nearly finished with a third. I've also done some nature and wildlife photography which can be seen on FlickR.com and NatureConservancy.org. I do need to resume more activity on GovCentral, but there just doesn't seem to be enough time in the day. By the way, I'm also on FaceBook. Oh yes, and thanks for the gift. How are things going with you?
Jorge, It's nice to see you here! How have you been? How is your weekend going? It snowed here last night! It was so beautiful while it lasted!
Jorge, Thank you for the gift! You are a great friend and I'm thankful for knowing you! I pray the Lord is directing you in the way that you should go!
Have a Happy New Year.
Yes, I did. Thank you and have a great weekend.

The headset is cut off after a certain time on the play clock afaik. And there's no way you can do that from the booth on the fly. Only a QB can make those last second decisions to be able to relay it to his offense.
And you don't think manning couldn't teach it to his qb? I think he could.

Rangers, Astros set to continue battle for Silver Boot
Mikolas seeking consistency in matchup with Oberholtzer in opener
The Silver Boot Trophy could change hands for the first time since 2007. The Rangers are 3-6 against the Astros with 10 games to play, putting the Astros in position to win the trophy for the first time since 2006. The two clubs begin a weekend set Friday at Minute Maid Park.
Texas has won the trophy for seven straight seasons. Between 2007-13, the Rangers were 43-12 against the Astros.
"We're just trying to win games every night," Texas manager Ron Washington said. "That's all we're trying to do."
The Silver Boot has been awarded every year since the Rangers and the Astros started playing in Interleague in 2001.
Miles Mikolas, a converted reliever, will take the hill in the opener for the Rangers. The right-hander allowed just two runs in seven innings in a 2-0 loss to the Yankees in his last start. In his previous outing, he allowed eight runs (seven earned) in 4 2/3 innings vs. the A's.
This will be Mikolas' seventh start, and he is still striving for the consistency that Washington seeks from his young players.
"I need to execute pitches to be consistent," Mikolas said. "Change speeds, throw my breaking ball for strikes and obviously establish my fastball. Even with the ups and downs, I don't think my confidence has wavered. I know what I am capable of. Obviously, the goal is to be consistent and at my best every time out."
The Astros return to Houston after a quick three-day road trip to Philadelphia. Prior to that, they finished up a 10-game homestand against Miami, Oakland and Toronto. They won five of the 10 games and will have Brett Oberholtzer on the mound Friday.
The left-hander went seven innings for the second time in his last three starts Sunday against Toronto. He struck out five and gave up six hits and two earned runs.
Another quality start for Oberholtzer on Friday would be his fourth straight. He owns a 3.15 ERA and 1.24 WHIP in his last seven Major League outings.
"He's continued to attack the strike zone," Astros manager Bo Porter said. "He's gained so much confidence in his secondary pitches. I think that's the biggest maturation I've seen over the last two or three starts. He's learned how to be a winning pitcher at the Major League level, doing whatever is it he has to do that given day to give his team the best opportunity to win the game."
Rangers: Soto to be activated
The Rangers are expected to activate catcher Geovany Soto off the disabled list Friday. They are hoping he can stay healthy the rest of the season.
"We need for him to be healthy because we know he can produce and we know he can get pitchers through their game," Washington said. "That's what he can do."
Soto was supposed to be the Rangers' No. 1 catcher from the outset but missed the first half after undergoing surgery to remove torn cartilage in his right knee. He was activated after the All-Star break but played in just three games before suffering a strained right groin muscle.
Astros: Springer's setback "minor"
During his Minor League rehab assignment Wednesday with Class A Quad Cities, George Springer tweaked the strained left quad that has kept him on the disabled list since July 20. He returned to Houston and will be re-evaluated Friday, but Porter said the issue is a minor one.
The plan was to activate Springer for the series opener, but the setback has cost the move at least one day.
"Obviously, with him having to come out of the game yesterday, we'll send him through a workout [Friday] and see how he recovers, and if he doesn't have any setbacks, we'll make a decision at that point whether to activate him or give him more time," Porter said.
Springer was hitting .231 with 20 homers and 51 RBIs in 78 games since being called up in the middle of April. He was the American League Rookie of the Month in May.
Worth noting
• Elvis Andrus is riding a 13-game hit streak, his longest of the season.
• Adrian Beltre is 11-for-27 (.407) with two home runs and six RBIs against the Astros this season. He has a .347 career average against Houston.

Very good move. 13.04 is so fine tuned and good working.
Bringing in no finished software would have boiled this near perfect release.
Phoronix: Smart Scopes Gets Removed From Ubuntu 13.04
It's been decided at the last minute that "smart scopes", a feature of the new Unity desktop, will not ship in Ubuntu 13.04...
Very good move. 13.04 is so fine tuned and good working.
Bringing in no finished software would have boiled this near perfect release.
Agreed, happy to see this and an acknowledgement of an unfinished product, and postponement of it.
Smart scopes is proprietary crapware. It's dependent on closed-source server-side software.
Less spyware, good.
People like you are missing the point about free software. You're too young or ignorant to really understand the idea or what it has given to you.
Try to imagine a world without free software. A world where every program is developed in secrecy and sold by corporations. Where there are no hackers or coders who do it for the sheer enjoyment of coding, instead only worker drones for large software corporations pushing code in a thankless 9-5 cubicle. Users are all demoted to the role of passive consumption, instead of active participation. You won't be able to control what your computer does, as you're only it's user - there's no ideology to support the idea that a user must have full control of their hardware, so every computer, every OS, is riddled with DRM and trusted computing schemes. If you try to copy files that are marked as copyrighted, your computer won't let you. If you try to save eg. video streams on your hard disk, your computer won't let you. Every time you try to perform an action your computer/OS manufacturer has deemed illegal, probably because it goes against other corporate interests, your computer just goes "I can't let you do that, Dave" and maybe reports you on some universal naughty list. There's no such thing as net neutrality, tor, piratism, freedom of speech - all is controlled by corporate interest. No peer-to-peer networks exist, everything follows a top-down passive consumption model.
See, THAT is the world your "convenience" brings you. That is the cost of ignoring freedom. Free software is not a religion, it is a way to guarantee that the user has some power against the corporations, that the user is in control of their hardware and software. It's digital activism. Hacker ethics. Stallman might be extreme in his views, but it's good that someone like him exists, to bring a balance to all these greedy sellouts who'd forget their free software roots in a heartbeat to make a quick buck.
Those who would give up freedom for convenience deserve neither.
I will take iron-fisted control over anarchy any day. People should have their sense of entitlement cut down to size by being forced to toe the line.
There is no such thing as freedom without regulations.
And as a content producer myself I refuse to let anybody have free reign over my copyrighted content without paying any royalties or even seeking approval to distribute it.

Ubaldo aims to keep up strong stretch in opener
Rookie right-hander Maurer leads Mariners into four-game set
Has Ubaldo Jimenez found the spark that made his 2010 season so dazzling?
It's probably too early to make that claim, but in his last three outings -- coming against Kansas City, Oakland and Detroit -- the righty has gone 3-0 and compiled a 1.45 ERA. In a span of 18 2/3 innings, Jimenez has allowed just 10 hits and walked six batters. He's also struck out eight in back-to-back performances.
Jimenez will take the hill on Friday at Progressive Field against Mariners righty Brandon Maurer in the first of a four-game series. The Indians had a day off on Thursday, while Seattle wrapped up its three-game set at Yankee Stadium with a 3-2 victory to earn a series win.
"I've been able to go out there for the last three or four games and compete and give the team a chance to be close on the scoreboard," Jimenez said after limiting the Tigers to one run in his last outing. "I think it's all about my mechanics. The last three games I've been able to repeat my mechanics on every pitch."
Jimenez is 3-2 with a 5.55 ERA this season.
Maurer was in the Minor Leagues when Jimenez turned heads three years ago. After spending last year with Double-A Jackson, the 22-year-old rookie has seen seven starts as a member of Seattle's rotation this season. In that time, he has gone 2-5 with a 5.97 ERA.
Mariners manager Eric Wedge has taken many positives out of Maurer's development. On April 30, Maurer gave up four runs against Baltimore in the first frame but bounced back to keep the Orioles off the scoreboard in his final three innings of work.
"He had three good starts prior to this, so you have to take that into consideration," Wedge said then. "He had a tough night tonight, but I think he cleared another hurdle being able to right himself after getting off to the tough start. He can go home tonight feeling like he did do a better job than earlier in the year when he didn't get through it."
Mariners: Wilhelmsen a force on back end
• Closer Tom Wilhelmsen is 11-for-11 in save opportunities after walking a tight rope to nail down Wednesday's series finale in the Bronx. He carries a sterling 0.50 ERA and in 18 innings has struck out 13 while walking five. The righty has retired the first batter in each of his 17 appearances this season.
• The stop at Progressive Field is the middle leg of a three-city, nine-game road trip for Seattle. After four in Cleveland, the Mariners will play two in Anaheim before returning home.
Indians: Santana an all-around backstop
• Catchers who can make an impact at the plate as well as behind it are a desired commodity across baseball. Tribe manager Terry Francona recognizes that he's lucky enough to have one in Carlos Santana.
In addition to handling hurlers and blocking balls, Santana is hitting .319 with seven home runs and 16 RBIs. He also owns a .430 on-base percentage.
"He switch-hits, he hits for power, he takes walks," Francona said. "He is as a young catcher learning the responsibility of the importance of running a staff. To his credit, he is learning, and he's trying to learn. Sometimes it's a step forward and one back, but he's trying really hard, and we appreciate that."
• With their 10-4 win in Philadelphia on Wednesday, the Indians are 14-4 in the past 18 games.
Worth noting
• The two teams -- who have not faced each other in 2013 -- split the season series last year, 4-4.
• The Indians are 6-1 against the American League West, while the Mariners are 2-4 against the AL Central.

Open heart surgery is any surgery where the chest is opened and surgery is done on the heart muscle, valves, arteries, or other parts of the heart (such as the aorta). The term "open" means that the chest is "cut" open.
The definition of open heart surgery has become confusing because new procedures are being done on the heart through smaller cuts. Some new procedures are being done with the heart still beating.
See also:
Heart surgery - open
A heart-lung machine is usually used during open heart surgery. While the surgeon works on the heart, the machine helps send oxygen-rich blood to the brain and other organs.
You will not need to be on a heart-lung machine for these types of surgery. However, your heart rate will be slowed with medicine or a mechanical device. If there is a problem with these procedures, the surgeon may have to open the chest to do the surgery.

First ever international soccer match at Busch Stadium announced
ST. LOUIS - Two of the most storied English Premier League clubs Manchester City and Chelsea, announced today that they will travel to St. Louis for an exhibition match this Spring. The teams will meet on Thursday, May 23rd at Busch Stadium. Kickoff is set for 7:30 PM CST (#socceratbusch).
"We are honored to host this historic match," said Bill DeWitt III, President of the Cardinals. "This is a wonderful opportunity for St. Louisans to see some of the best soccer players in the world."
This is the first professional, non-baseball sporting event hosted at the new Busch Stadium. "We look forward to showcasing the versatility of Busch Stadium as a multi-use sports venue," DeWitt said.
"Passion and excitement for soccer in the United States continues to grow exponentially and we're proud to bring two of the most recognized teams in Europe to such an iconic venue in Busch Stadium," said Charlie Stillitano, CEO of Relevent Sports.
Manchester City, the 2012 Premier League Champions and five-time FA Cup winner returns to North America for the first time since their 2011 summer pre-season tour. City traveled to Los Angeles, Vancouver and San Francisco, winning games against the Galaxy, Whitecaps and Club America (Mexico City) respectively. Featuring stars with countless European and international caps including Ivorian Yaya Toure, Spaniard David Silva and Argentine Sergio Aguero, City has skyrocketed to the highest echelons of English soccer.
"The summer visit to St Louis is tremendously exciting for Manchester City Football Club," said Ferran Soriano, Chief Executive for Manchester City Football Club. "The Club's first US tour was in 2010 and we have continued to develop a close relationship with our fans in North America ever since. You will now find Manchester City soccer fields in some of the most deserving communities of New York, Miami, LA and Chicago, and loyal supporters clubs in major cities across the continent. All the first team players are really looking forward to the opportunity to play in the iconic Busch stadium, and bringing Manchester City even closer to their North American fans."
Chelsea is one of the most successful teams in England with four Premier League titles and seven FA Cups. The Blues also boast two UEFA Cup Championships, one UEFA Super Cup and one UEFA Champions League title. In 2012 Chelsea, with the help of Spaniards Juan Mata and Fernando Torres, as well as English International and three-time Chelsea Player of the Year, Frank Lampard, became the first London club to win the Champions League.
"It's an excellent opportunity for the club to be able to return to America so quickly after our successful tour there last July," said Chelsea Chief Executive Ron Gourlay. "The club and the players have enjoyed regularly traveling to the US and also helping to create long-term growth and sustainability of soccer in the country through our super club network. We will face the strongest opposition in Manchester City and I am sure we will provide a competitive and entertaining match in St Louis."
Tickets start at $30 and go on sale April 2 at 10AM CST at cardinals.com/Soccer or the Busch Stadium Box Office. There will be a limit of 8 tickets per purchase. A special pre-sale will be held April 1st for Cardinals Season Ticket holders. Additional details can be found at cardinals.com/soccer. Be sure to join the conversation with #socceratbusch.

16.04.2013 /
Winter is over and so is the waiting. The KTM X-BOW BATTLE starts its fourth season this weekend with many new features and a field of starters like seldom before. More than 40 have signed up to race at the Red Bull Ring and event organizer Georg Silbermayr is counting on 35-40 actual participants who will battle for the first points of the season on Friday and Saturday (April 19-20, 2013). That is just as noteworthy as the many changes to the competition that were decided upon during the winter break.
Georg Silbermayr: "I didn't count on having so many starters for the first races after the winter break. We've altered the regulations quite radically: Now there's only one class and that means everyone has around 370 hp at their disposal. This naturally means that many of our participants have had to invest in the technology of their cars. And thanks to a partnership with Michelin, we'll be racing this season for the first time with slicks and this is going to make the KTM X-BOW BATTLE even more professional and faster. For this reason this makes me even happier that our teams and drivers have taken this step and that at the Red Bull Ring we'll even be welcoming some new drivers!"
However for all those who do not want to get straight into the "BATTLE" action", Silbermayr says there is another area of interest. "Those who own the series model X-BOW can enter into the "KTM X-BOW CHALLENGE", which we will be staging every race weekend together with our friends from the Porsche Alpenpokal. This is regularity driving on the racing circuit whereby new drivers can get a taste of the racing circuits."
The field of starters at the Red Bull Ring is a colorful mix of experienced KTM X-BOW BATTLE drivers and interesting newcomers. To name just a few: Jim Gebhardt, champion of the very first season is again fighting for the title; Laura Kraihamer is a strong contender among the women drivers. "Major Adolf Kottan" (ex-rally ace Raphael Sperrer) will occasionally change places with "Mr. Plus City" Ernst Kirchmayr. Young riders are well represented, among others, by Philipp Hirschi (Switzerland) or Lukas Martin (Vorarlberg). The contingent from Germany, (e.g. Carsten Seifert, Pierre Ludigkeit, Uwe Schmidt, Winnie Assmann and many more) has grown as much as those from the Czech Republic (around team leader Pavel Heinik) or Poland (Artur Chwist & Co.). The Austrian contingent includes, among others, the teams "Roomvibes" (Peter Resch, Gerhard Trenker) or "True Racing" and leading the field are Klaus Angerhofer, KTM Board Member Hubert Trunkenpolz and – at least at the Red Bull Ring – KTM Chief Designer Gerald Kiska.
The "Team Classification", always made up of two drivers is new this season – and this regardless of what team they start for or what nation they belong to. "This means we will have very unusual groups", promises the mischievous initiator Georg Silbermayr. He also has two KTM 125 DUKE road bikes to present to the team competition winners at the end of the season.
There will be a KTM 390 DUKE for the overall winner of the individual competition, who again receives an official National Motorsport Authority accolade and with it, the title of "Austrian National Champion". No particular favorites emerged from the very successful test drives in Barcelona (in Formula 1 style with more than 40 starters), however Georg Silbermayr gives us the wink along with a couple of his own tips. "Naturally everything is open because when we race we don't have any team strategy in the "BATTLE", just as there aren't any No. 1 drivers like in our 'companion series', the Formula 1. But there are rumors that there's a new team leader in the "True Racing" Team: Hubert Trunkenpolz with 1:55.404 was faster in Barcelona than Klausi Angerhofer and with this, the second fastest behind factory driver Reini Kofler! Naturally he was faster than all the others – it's going to be very exciting!"
There's definitely not going to be any shortage of starters in the KTM X-BOW BATTLE and for the opener at the Red Bull Ring a particularly fast driver will take his place in the VIP car and later offer his expert opinion about the "BATTLE". Ryan Sharp, for many years a factory driver in the GT1 World Championships (previously, among others, with Karl Wendlinger in Austria's Jetalliance-Team), takes his place for the first time in the 370 hp KTM X-BOW RR: "I've followed this race series up to now on the internet and I've seen the videos. It looks terrific when 40 of these spectacular open racing cars go into the first corner. And there's certainly going to be some action with 370 hp and just 800 kg, especially in combination with slick tires. I have a lot of work with my own business so its been a long time since I raced myself. But because of this I'm excited and I'm really looking forward to taking part!"

I think both Kanako and MIki had a good draw. I think Mao/Yuna draw is suiting .....long last wait for return of the Princess/The Queen lol
As usual Yu Na Kim's competition to win or lose. If she skates a clean short program she will probably open up a mammoth 2 fall or more lead on the rest.
When does the ladies sp begin?
Funny to see the two Helgesson sisters skating back to back
I am waiting to see how the quiet and partisan Russian crowd reacts to Kanako tomorrow.
If she can't shake them out of their stupor with her SP tomorrow then no one can.
I agree. The problem with the men's event was that it was held during the afternoon of a weekday in Russia, which meant that the stadium was far from full for a good portion of the event as most people were presumably at work or in school (this was clearly discernable from the wide shots from CBC coverage--the rink was not full for the longest time). When the rink filled up more, it got much louder--just look at the pairs event, which was held in the evening and was much more full and loud.
Could someone educate me on how the draw is done. There are 5 groups of 6 skaters each. Do all 30 skaters pick from one bag, or does each group of 6 skaters pick for their number within their group? I'm assuming the later because all the top skaters have landed in the last 2 groups of 6 which leads me to believe the skaters are first split into their 5 groups and then the skaters draw for their number within that group. If that is how it works, then how are the 5 groups determined?
The draw is done for every top 10 ISU ranked skaters. That is the #1 rank to the #10 rank skaters/teams will be randomly drawn among themselves. Next would be #11 to #20 and so on so forth. The fact that last group had the most highly ranked skaters was partially a random result. In other disciplines, you'll notice some of the #1-4 ranked skaters actually drew to skate in the before last group as opposed to the last group.
Thank you! That explains it.

Look yummy! Any alternatives to cashew nuts for this recipe?
Best raw chocolate cookies
Prep Time
10 min -
Total Time
10 min -
Shelf Life
5 days in fridge -
14 servings -
14 cookies
- 1 cup almonds
- 1 1/2 cups cashews
- 1 cup dates
- 2 tablespoons agave nectar
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1 pinch sea salt
Recipe Directions
- 1. Process almonds and cashews in a food processor until they (almost) resemble flour. Add dates, agave nectar, coconut oil and vanilla. Process until well mixed and doughlike.
- 2. Add the cocoa powder and sea salt and process again.
- 3. Form into cookies. You can refrigerate and eat as is, or dehydrate them for a few hours for a warm, gooey fudgy experience!
The Rawtarian's Thoughts
By The RawtarianThese are the best raw chocolate cookies that I've ever had. It's a bit touch and go whether they even need to be dehydrated at all, since the batter is quite dry and conceivably you can form them into cookies and eat as is or refrigerate so that they firm up even more. But when dehydrated for a few hours they get gooey and warm and they're so good! They will never get crispy though (due to the coconut oil), so if dehydrating don't bother dehydrating for more than a few hours.
This recipe does require a number of ingredients, unlike this simple lemon cookie recipe. But the flavor is worth it, because sometimes you just need that chocolatey fix.
I especially recommend eating these cookies warm. The insides are gooey and fudgey while the outside is kind of crispy. It's a perfect fix if you're missing the comfort and flavour of fresh-baked cookies!
If you're looking to really replicate a delicious, fatty-tasting cookie, make sure to add the coconut oil. It really makes or breaks these raw chocolate fudge cookies.

These are great. We loved them! They almost taste like chocolate brownies. It's nice knowing I'm doing good for my body! :)
Would it be OK to use Honey or Maple Syrup as an alternative sweetener?
Hi there just got my wonderful dehydrator 3 days ago after being raw for 2 years so now I can't wait to try some of your yummy recipes.I do not have para flex sheets yet but noticed you used parchment paper. Can I use regular roll of parchment paper and cut it to size for now or does it have to be dehydrator brand to make it work???Any idea?
Im on my 3rd batch, yummo! The only thing I changed was cacao instead of cocoa. I love them straight from the fridge. So does my 2 year old.
ashleyjane's Review
Best raw chocolate cookies
Just tried these cookies...and I totally agree, they have to go in the dehydrator! The difference in having a nice warm cookie is so nice! especially since I used to bake all the time :) Next time I might try them with just almonds and omit the cashews...I want to make them more often and it would be easier on the wallet since cashews are 20$ kg or over 9$ lb here...
I am allergic to tree nuts (almonds, cashews etc).
However I can eat peanuts (weird I know).
Are there any substitutes for the nuts / nut flour in all of your recipes? Will peanuts work? Or a mix of peanuts and seeds perhaps?
Thanks xo
Hi Louise,
1. You may find this podcast helpful: https://www.therawtarian.com/rfp05-nut-substitutions (you can download it in iTunes - look for "raw food podcast" - episode 5)
2. Generally, these groups of nuts can be substituted for one another:
creamy nuts: cashews, macadamia nuts, pine nuts, etc.
flour-like nuts: almonds, sunflower seeds, hazelnuts, pumpkin seeds, etc.
oily nuts: walnuts, pecans, etc.
Hope this helps!

Best raw chocolate cookies
These were really good and chocolaty. I added about 1 tsp of ground coffee beans for an espresso flavor! Also, to make it go faster, I pressed it into a glass bread pan for bars. I also made RAW BANANA BREAD and it's still in the dehydrator. Thank you for all your tasty raw recipes!
I LOVED this recipe!!! Very easy to make. I made these cookies already 3 times in one month ;)

Best raw chocolate cookies
I roll them in coconut and do some drops and some flat. The coconut adds crunch. Love this, kept me off the sugar stuff during the holidays.

NEW YORK (AP) — Amazon is buying video game streaming platform Twitch Interactive for $970 million in cash as it seeks to expand its presence in gaming.
As video gaming grows into an online spectator sport, gameplay video feeds are becoming increasingly lucrative. Twitch had 55 million unique visitors in July, most of whom went to the Twitch.tv website to watch other people play games —competitions interspersed with advertising.
"Broadcasting and watching gameplay is a global phenomenon and Twitch has built a platform that brings together tens of millions of people who watch billions of minutes of games each month," said Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos in a statement.
The deal is the latest example of Amazon expanding into new commercial arenas. It introduced its own smartphone, the Fire, this month. Earlier this summer, it added same-day delivery, a set-top video streaming device to its list of services for members of Prime, its $99 annual loyalty program.
Amazon already has an in-house gaming studio that makes games, and its Fire TV set top box was designed to attract gamers.
Twitch CEO Emmett Shear said Amazon is a good fit because "they believe in our community, they share our values and long-term vision."
Google had been in talks to buy Twitch, but no deal materialized. Forrester Research analyst James McQuivey said Google might have been a better fit for Twitch.
"Twitch will be a harder asset for Amazon to use," he said. "It doesn't have the kind of video streaming audience that Google's YouTube does."
However, McQuivey added that Amazon is trying to own more of its own content rather than simply selling others' and Twitch could help the company do that.
"(Twitch) captures people's attention for hours a week and it also creates a product tie-in opportunity that Amazon can capitalize on in a way that Google could not," he said.
Seattle-based Amazon's purchase of Twitch is set to close in the second half of 2014.
Twitch launched in 2011 to focus on live video for gamers. In July, users viewed more than 155 billion minutes of content produced by more than 1 million broadcasters, ranging from individual gamers, pro players, video game publishers, developers and others. The company does not release revenue figures, but in September 2013 it received a $20 million investment from investors including software company Take-Two Interactive and venture capital firms Alsop Louie Partners and Bessemer Venture Partners.
Digital video advertising in the U.S. is expected to reach $5.96 billion this year, according to eMarketer, up 41.9 percent from 2013.

I don't know what it is with these things, but its difficult to find one that weighs 45 pounds. Unfortunately, this one did not. Maybe that's why they are at Overstock, because they are defects.
Overstock.com beats everyone's price when it comes to this CAP Olympic bar. These normally go for around $125-$150! I saved alot which means more money for my other workout equipment!
Since I'm not using it for Olympic lifting, it works nicely for the exercises I want to do with just the 45lb weight.
I am very glad to have this bar. My only issue was that it was not well packaged. UPS delivered it to me with the packaging already unraveling, which made it unweildy to get into my house.
So...does this bar weight 36 or 45 lbs?
This is a great barbell especially for the price! And with free shipping it's really a deal.
Product arrived on time and intact. Was what I was looking for. Picture matched what I was looking for as well.
Once again, a fabulous buy. This item is just what the Dr. ordered for my workout regime. Thanks a million.
I love this bar! I use it with my bench press at home and it definitely meets my expectations with size and weight. It is strong and durable. When I'm using it, I feel like I'm in a regular gym. The price is also good being that this item typically sellssells for over $xxx. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs an Olympic sized bar m

piping through 'pv' shows a simple progress/speed bar for dd. This is a replacement for my otherwise favorite 'while :;do killall -USR1 dd;sleep 1;done'
This line removes the 300k header from a Nero image file converting it to ISO format
bs = buffer size (basically defined the size of a "unit" used by count and skip)
count = the number of buffers to copy (16m * 32 = 1/2 gig)
skip = (32 * 2) we are grabbing piece 3...which means 2 have already been written so skip (2 * count)
i will edit this later if i can to make this all more understandable
This is a more accurate way to watch the progress of a dd process. The $DDPID=$! is needed so that you don't get the PID of the sleep. The sleep 1 is needed because in my testing at least, if you run kill -USR1 against dd too quickly, it will kill it off instead of display the status. So you need to wait a second, probably so that it can configure itself to trap the USR1 signal.
The following command will clone usb stick inside /dev/sdc to /dev/sdd

First I created the logical volume: lvcreate -L120G -nlaptop mylvms
SOURCE: dd if=/dev/sda bs=16065b | netcat ip-target 1234
TARGET: nc -l -p 1234 | dd of=/dev/mapper/mylvms-laptop bs=16065b
to follow its process you issue the following command in a different terminal
STATS: on target in a different terminal: watch -n60 -- kill -USR1 $(pgrep dd)
If you have some drive imaging to do, you can boot into any liveCD and use a commodity machine. The drives will be written in parallel.
To improve efficiency, specify a larger block size in dd:
dd if=/dev/sda bs=64k | tee >(dd of=/dev/sdb bs=64k) | dd of=/dev/sdc bs=64k
To image more drives , insert them as additional arguments to tee:
dd if=/dev/sda | tee >(dd of=/dev/sdb) >(dd of=/dev/sdc) >(dd of=/dev/sdd) | dd of=/dev/sde
This is similar to how you would generate a file with all zeros
dd if=/dev/zero of=allzeros bs=1024 count=2k
For disk space constraint testing. Leaves a little space available for creating temp files, etc. Easily free up the used disk space again by deleting the dummy00 file. Can tailor the testing by building smaller 'blocks' to suit the needs of the testing.
WARNING: do not do this to the '/' (root) filesystem unless you know what you are doing... on some systems it could crash the OS.
If you leave out the block size it defaults to 512 bytes. I set it to 16 Megabytes and it was much faster...
This is an useful command for when your OS is reporting less free RAM than it actually has. In case terminated processes did not free their variables correctly, the previously allocated RAM might make a bit sluggis over time.
This command then creates a huge file made out of zeroes and then removes it, thus freeing the amount of memory occupied by the file in the RAM.
In this example, the sequence will free up to 1GB(1M * 1K) of unused RAM. This will not free memory which is genuinely being used by active processes.
See: http://imgur.com/JgjK2.png for example.
Do some serious benchmarking from the commandline. This will write to a file with the time it took to compress n bytes to the file (increasing by 1).
gnuplot -persist <(echo "plot 'lzma' with lines, 'gzip' with lines, 'bzip2' with lines")
To see it in graph form.
Intentional hash in the beginning. May run a looong time. Wipes your data for real. Was meant to be /dev/urandom - I mistyped it. :-)
You can use this to directly dump from machine A (with dvd drive) to machine B (without dvd drive) . I used this to copy dvd using my friend's machine to my netbook. Above command is to be issued on machine B.
Advantages :
1) No wasting time dumping first to machine A and then copying to Machine B.
2) You dont need to use space on Machine A. In fact, this will work even when Machine A doesnt have enough hdd space to dump the DVD.
Use -C ssh option on slow networks (enables compression).
you can replace "dd if=/dev/dvd" with any ripping command as long as it spews the iso to stdout.
Overwrites the boot sector. Since this doesn't overwrite any data, you can usually recover by re-creating the partition table exactly the same as before you zeroed it. This can also help sometimes if you install a new drive in a Windows machine which can't read it.
A dear friend of mine asked me how do I copy a DVD to your hard drive? If you want to make a copy of the ISO image that was burned to a CD or DVD, insert that medium into your CD/DVD drive and (assuming /dev/cdrom is associated with your computer?s CD drive) type the following command
