PSB M4U 1 Written By Michael, Gastonia, NC on Sunday, October 26, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality This was my first pair of over the ear headphones. I have always used in-ear "earbud" headphones. I did a lot of research before this purchase because I wanted to make sure I got it right. A friend who knows a lot more than I do about audiophile headphones had the chance to hear these at an audio show before I received mine and told me that I would be very happy with them. When I did receive them, I quickly plugged them into my android phone which is the source of almost all my music files. The headphones sounded really good but to be honest, they didn't blow me away. My $50 Skullcandy earbuds sounded just as good. I discussed this with my audiophile friend. He told me that I needed a headphone amplifier. He had one sitting around and was happy to get rid of it. This amp is also a DAC that can process FLAC files up to 96/24. I made sure I had the correct cables and first hooked my phone to it. It instantly made a HUGE difference. The only problem was portability. This amp is not portable and needs a power supply. After more research, I plugged the amp/DAC into my laptop and the PSB M4U 1's into the amp. This is where everything really, really shines. The sound used to be detailed but lacked fullness and dynamics. By adding a headphone amp/DAC to listen to these headphones, it makes them truly audiophile quality. One issue that I have read fro mother reviewers is comfort. I don't have a real issue with it but they are heavy and tend to get hot. Pros: great price true audiophile sound when listening to quality recorded files Cons: many may already know this but a quality headphone amp/DAC is really a must to make these shine
Entry-Level Audiophiles Look No Further! Written By Ryan G, Boston, MA on Saturday, October 04, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality As a musician of 20+ years, I have a discerning ear and limited budget. After reading all the reviews on the PSB M4U 1's, I decided to pull the trigger. I could not be happier! I've owned Bang & Olufsen, Koss, Bose, Shure, Technics, and even a pair of Beats that I got on sale (and sold very quickly thereafter). I've dipped my toes in the water with the higher end stuff, but was never very thrilled with the sound quality vs. what I was paying compared to the different sets that I've used or owned, and thus never thought any were worth the extra $$$. Sound quality*: While they do sound great, I do feel they are entry-level audiophile headphones. That being said, I purchased a FiiO E07k DAC/preamp to use with these cans as well. To get the most out of them, you need that extra boost only a preamp can provide. They sound great on their own, but you won't be able to tell much without a preamp with my testing. I only have the bass at +2 and the gain at +12. I use them primarily with my MacBook Pro for work and school, so the built-in DAC feature was also a must to bypass the MBP's DAC. 5 stars, but with the E07k. Coolness factor: I only gave it 4 stars as they aren't very flashy. Very simple design, which is fine. PSB stacked the deck in sound quality, so I could really care less about this. Build quality: Solid construction. Comfort: I wear them for hours daily. Zero issues. Noise reduction: I couldn't ask for more to get rid of background noise! Pros: - Superb sound quality - Very comfortable - Noise reduction is almost noise canceling grade without having to crank the volume - Great warranty - Solid construction - Extra set of ear cups to replace down the road Cons: - Kind of a chunky design and not very flashy. If you're looking for a stylish pair of headphones over sound quality, these are not the headphones you want.
Best headphones ive ever owned Written By Anonymous, Mass on Friday, May 16, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort rating Noise Reduction Sound Quality Have amazing sound quality and very even with just the right amount of high and mids with a good amount of bass. Could use alittle more bass but i favor heavier bass than others. The old downside is they are alittle heavy to wear for long periods of time. Pros: Great sound and comfortable against your ears Cons: Alittle on the heavy side
Good-sounding headphones.. Written By Garland, Seattle, WA on Sunday, April 27, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality These sound good - just short of the sonic goodness of the NAD VISO HP50 (a little less presence in the treble and upper mids, leaving some vocals and instrumentation feeling distant). However, these are much better built (better materials, better design and apparently better assembly), resulting in virtually no microphonic transmission of structural sounds. My problem with them? A driver defect exposed during quality testing - a pronounced rattle in the left driver from 10 - 30 Hz at higher volumes. I returned rather than replaced them for this reason and because I found the sound signature and performance, overall, clinical and lacking character. Pros: Good sound quality, technically pretty accurate. Good build quality. Cons: A little dorky-looking. Ear cups too shallow for long term comfort. Defective driver right out of the box. Sound quality a bit on the clinical side.
Best Headphones I've Heard Written By JohnM, Oklahoma City on Saturday, March 15, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality At 50+ yrs I've tried lots of 'phones. I read that, for more $, there are better. I'm not sure that the human ear can hear sound much better than these 'phones are capable of producing. The entire range of sound is impeccably produced. If you just want to rattle your brain, get Beats. But don't gripe about the lack of quality in the mids and highs. If you want all the frequencies the human ear can HEAR, in pristine quality, these 'phones do it. And as for the bass, they DO satisfy. You can spend more, and maybe get better 'phones. I'm not sure you will actually be able to tell the difference. These 'phones are not cheap. But worth every cent. I'm enjoying familiar music in new ways. These headphones thrill me. Pros: See my review on sound. Quality of build is superb. Absolutely top shelf. Cons: Short cord. 5 more feet would be nice.

PSB M4U 1 headphones Written By Rob, Cleveland, TN on Saturday, January 04, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality First of all, the reviews I read before purchasing these headphones are dead on on two items: 1) The sound quality is superb, particularly my high definition music via DAC. It is a totally enveloping experience. My wife, who thinks the white Apple ear buds are wonderful, was awestruck by the sound; 2) the comfort level is fine at first but I got to the point quickly that I had to take these things off as they really became uncomfortable. As a comparison I have the infamous Bose noise cancelling phones for my international flights and I never grow weary of having them on, even after 7 or 8 hours. However, their sound is not even close to the PSBs. Alas, I now have to decide whether to return because of comfort or keep and grit my teeth when my ears get tired. The lack of comfort is really hard to explain but they do hurt after a while. Pros: Outstanding sound with lots of "space" Great build quality Outstanding Value Cons: Heck, the Comfort level after one hour is tough to bear. Definitely, not a good phone for long flights or long listening sessions. I love them and I hate them.
Phenomenal Headphones with Incredibly Detailed Soundstage! Written By SteveJaws, Lenexa, KS on Sunday, December 29, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality I have had the chance to audition several pairs of headphones over the past two years ranging in price from $35 to $1,500. Having seen many reviews of the M4U2 headphones including Sound & Vision's 2012 "Product of the Year" award, I was very anxious to try the M4U1's when they were released from PSB. I was completely blown away by the extreme detail and overall dynamic sound quality that these headphones provide, which was not nearly as present in other pairs that I auditioned. When plugged into a high quality audio source, it is almost as if the performance is taking place right in front of you! Plug them in, close your eyes, and you will understand. The sound balance is absolutely perfect! The noise isolation is great - I don't know why anyone would need noise canceling if you have these. I have yet to have the M4U1's be pushed beyond their limits with bass or volume - rather than distort, they just keep cranking out the incredible sound! Build Quality is quite impressive. As far as comfort, I can wear these for hours without any comfort issues, which is not the case with some competing sets. Overall, I have to say that I was so impressed, that I now own two pairs. Without question, this is the absolute best quality set of headphones that I have come across at any price on the market! for the price this is an exceptional audiophile headphone experience - this is an incredible value! Great Job to PSB for producing unparalleled quality at such a competitive price! Pros: Unparalleled Dynamic Sound Quality! Comfort. Cons: Absolutely None!
Excellent, Natural Sounding Audiophile Cans Written By Lawdog, Medina, OH on Friday, December 27, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort rating Noise Reduction Sound Quality The PSB M4U 1 is an excellent audiophile headphones set. My wife did a lot of research on quality headphones in this price range and landed here. I am very happy. They are very comfortable on my head - snug, but not too tight. Having said that, I have note yet worn them for more than a few minutes at a time at this point. The sound is extremely pure and neutral. I would say "balanced." If you are looking for a bass emphasized sound, there may be better options. The bass is excellent, it is just not forced at the expense of clean midrange and high range sound. If anything, these are so good, they may expose some flaws in your music. I noted a very faint hiss in one track I was listening to on my older gen 1 ipad with a compressed music file. I had read this may be the case on CNET review. Not bad, but I heard it when straining. Again, this is a source flaw and one that these incredible headphones exposed just slightly. I do fly a fair amount so noise cancelling is at least a consideration (these do not have). However, my past experiences with noise cancelling have not been entirely pleasant and the addition comes at the expense of pure audiophile grade sound. I like the fact that the cords can be plugged into either ear cup and that the other can be used to "chain" another listener (could come in handy on a flight with spouse, child, etc.). The extra set of ear pads are a top notch addition as well and the case is very nice. You cannot go wrong here. Pros: Excellent neutral sound, comfort, extra ear pads, selectable cord plug-in location Cons: No Noise Cancelling if desired
PSB M4U 1 Review Written By Mancy, Iowa on Thursday, December 26, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality I am currently using these with my computer and I will give an updated review once my dac/amp arrive. Even with using onboard audio I have noticed an audibly better experience versus my other pair of headhpones, Steelseries Siberia V2. I am not bashing the V2's as I still use them for gaming but I hope this review will help people who come from the same background as me, one who uses their computer for everything(gaming, movies/tv and music). Recently I was looking for better sound quality and I can afford to upgrade so I did and here are my thoughts. M4U1's vs Siberia V2's. M4U does deliver an audibly better sound stage. I am able to distinguish more individual instruments and I find them to give a much more immersing sound than my V2. While I am no audiophile I find the overall sound to be very well-balanced and enjoyable. It is awesome to hear your favorite songs and pick up on things you never knew existed in the song. Overall I highly recommend the M4U1 cans to anyone coming from my similar situation. No regrets here on my purchase. I believe them to be a great investment for high quality audio and if you come from a lower quality headphone you will be very pleased when you listen to high quality music. Once I receive my ODAC I will give a review comparing the two for music and games. Pros: Sound quality is great. Can distinguish individual instruments in my favorite songs and I have noticed sounds I never knew existed before. Delivers a balanced sound. When you are listening to your favorite albums, lying on the floor with no other distractions you will see what I mean. Cons: Only con so far is the comfort factor if you were to use these for extended gaming sessions. The way I use these headphones for listening to music (lying on the floor, just focusing on my music) they are PERFECTLY fine. If I were to play 3 games of Dota 2 straight or hammer out some Dishonored however, I would prefer my V2's.
PSB M4U 1 Written By Victor K, Lake Worth, Fl on Thursday, December 19, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

I paired it up with audioengine DAC D7 Pros: The sound will blow you away Cons: NONE
Wonderful! Written By JohnC, Silver Spring, MD on Saturday, October 05, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality My search for a great pair of headphones is over; my mobile audio system is now complete (no upgrades for the foreseeable future), and its sound quality rivals my home system (Paradigm Active 40, Rotel RSP-1066). I read all the glowing reviews for the M4U-2, but I didn't really need the noise-canceling feature, so I decided to try the M4U-1. Because of Crutchfield's excellent customer service and return policy, I wasn't worried. The M4U-1 is the best sounding set of headphones/earphones I've ever owned (out of Etymotic ER4, Sony MDR-F1, Stax SR-001, Sennheiser HD525). Paired with a Fiio E12 amp, the M4U-1 is a wonderful mobile audio solution. Once I start listening, it's extremely difficult to stop. Although they're not the most comfortable cans I've had (the Sony MDR-F1 and Incase Sonic win that award), I can wear them for hours without discomfort. I sometimes find myself slightly adjusting them, but this doesn't affect my overall enjoyment of them. Pros: Excellent sound, attractive design, solid construction, relatively portable, detachable/replaceable cable, excellent sound isolation, nice extras included: solid carrying case, two cables, ear pad replacements Cons: The only thing that prevents me from saying they're the perfect headphones for me is that they're not as comfortable as my Incase Sonic or Sony MDR-F1, but the MDR-F1 is an open headphone and the Sonic doesn't isolate very well. I gladly accept the trade-off.
Uncomfortable Written By Jason, San Francisco, CA on Wednesday, September 25, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality Great headphones, but didn't keep them, very uncomfortable. Picked up a set of Sennheiser Momentums instead and love them.

Wow Written By Anonymous, NY on Friday, April 26, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) rating "Coolness Factor" rating Build Quality rating Comfort rating Noise Reduction rating Sound Quality I spend a ton of time reading and researching so I am the definitive educated consumer. It was down to the PSB active or passive and I went with the passive and all I can say together with my Audioquest Dragonfly I am in sound heaven. Their biggest strength is room presence and vocals. It felt like Sgt Pepper and his band were in my room. I have never heard the Beatles so clearly and so defined. It gave goosebumps to my goosebumps. A fantastic nuanced beautifully engineered product by a world class speaker company. Astonishing work of aural artistry. Bravo.
Sweet headphones Written By pins, CT on Wednesday, March 27, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality After using some decent earbuds for years I decided to bite the bullet for a pair over good over the ear headphones. I got a pr of beats for my son for Christmas (which were not impressive), so I figured if he had some I should get a pr too. These sound quality is sooo much better than the muddy sounding beats. Nice and crisp, not a ton of bass, but I'm not a fan of the heavy bass. They don't need an amp with a phone of ipod but if you want to listen loud you will need an amp. Pros: Great clarity, neutral sound. Extremely comfortable. Cons: A bit heavy, but I'm used to buds
Peace and Quiet Written By AlexW, NY, NY on Friday, March 15, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality I bought the PSB M4U 1 headphones as a closed-can alternative to my Sennheiser 590's (which I love, but they keep my wife awake when I listen late at night). I don't listen to cans a lot, but I have been a fan of open air cans in genral, and Senn's in particualar since the HD 424's. In fact, the 424's were my only headphone for decades, until they finally gave up the ghost and I purchase the 590's. So, the PSB's are my first set of closed cans in almost 40 years...forty years...four decades...you get the picture. My reference system is a Rega RP1 through a vintage NAD phono preamp into an NAD 2400 that has been upgraded with new relays and caps (and this and that) into a pair of pristine KEF 103.2 loudspeakers (solid teak; not for sale). The secondary source is a digital feed of lossless flac files on a Linux server through a Maverick D2 (hot-rodded with tube rolling and new OpAmps). On the same source is a fully restored Kenwood KA-7300 (welder) feeding a set of vintage Jamo Sat 300's with sub, a ripping good speaker system by any measure, and absoulutly stunning with the Kenny. I sold these speakers to a customer 20 years ago, we've been happily married ever since (Coincidence? Perhaps, but just saying, really good speakers). The cans are comfortable to wear. Heavier than the Senn's, but not oppressive. That being said, a couple of hours with these will make you want to take a break, whereas the Senn's feel practically weightless. My cans are played through a Linux client accessing the same lossless files, a Maverick D1 DAC with upgraded OpAmp, Blue Jeans Cables to a Project Sunrise tube headphone amplifier. I have also run the cans through this system with the Rega/NAD as a source. My home theater system consists of PSB Stratus Mini's and a C5 center channel coupled with a Velodyne sub and polk bi-polar surrounds, all driven by a Yamaha RXV 1600 Receiver. This system sounds remarkably neutral an musical and was the motivation for taking a flyer on the PSB cans. The first thing that struck me is how much more efficient these cans are than the 590's. They play much louder at the same gain settings. The second thing that struc me is how well they stack up to the Senn's. These are very good cans. I prefer them to the Senn's in some ways. They are very dynamic and quite impressive, I mean really, profoundly impressive, on rock and blues tracks. Specifically, the bite and impact on GT & D's Delaware Slide is really something to hear. Quadrophenia through these cans is a real revalation. The piano at the begining of "Love Reign O'er Me" is reason enough to buy these cans. Likewise "Singing Winds, Crying Beasts" from Abraxas. Whew! "Joan of Arc" from the reissue of Famous Blue Raincoat was the first tune I listened to through the PSB's and I found them to be as tight and detailed as the Sennheisers, a bit more dynamic, but a bit less open. More pop, less air. They fall down a bit on Alegri's Miserere. They can't match th Pros: Impact, overall sound, dynamics, isolation Cons: staging, imaging (relative to open air cans), weight.

"Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality Very impressive headphones that exceed performance of others under $1k. The soundstaging is remarkable, with oodles of dynamic capability. I'm amazed at their truth of timbre, presentation of scale from the entire frequency range, and overall clarity.

While the quality of the boards seem great (we haven't actually played yet), I was suprised that the boards were both blank football fields with Michigan State decals that I had to apply myself. That wasn't in the description. I was really glad I opened the package all the way up before giving it to my boyfriend for Christmas. It took me quite a while to get the decals on without any air bubbles underneath-- but I'm very pleased with the overall look of the final product. The beanbags seem a little cheap, but we haven't used them yet, so I can't give a full review of those.
I got this for my dad for fathers day. The boards are lightweight but sturdy and I love the way they velcro together and have a handle. My only complaint is that the zipper on the bag that stores the beanbags broke after 1 day. (One use, actually.) My only other mild complaint is that the beanbags don't really feel like real beanbags; more like sandbags. So I would recommend just ordering some real beanbags to go with it, in 2 different colors, from **** or something.
Bought this for a gift not knowing the recipient already owned one. I was able to return I it hassle free and now have a credit to but something else.

Family of confessed serial killer holds WA funeralBy NICHOLAS K. GERANIOS
THE Associated Press | December 11,2012DEER PARK, Wash. The family of confessed serial killer Israel Keyes held a funeral Sunday remembering him in a small Washington town. He is not in a better place. Hes in a place of eternal torment, said Jake Gardner, the pastor for Israel Keyess family, before the funeral in Deer Park, Wash., a town about 15 miles north of Spokane.
The 34-year-old Keyes confessed to killing eight people across the country before he committed suicide recently in a jail cell in Anchorage, Alaska. The FBI and Anchorage police now say they believe he may have had three additional victims. Authorities in Oregon are also investigating whether Keyes also had murder victims there.
Keyes slit his wrist and strangled himself with bedding and was found dead last Sunday.
He was facing federal murder charges in the kidnapping and death of 18-year-old Samantha Koenig, who was abducted from an Anchorage coffee stand on Feb. 1.
On Sunday, his funeral was attended by his mother, Heidi, and four of his sisters. The family did not make a statement to the press.
Gardner said the family decided to hold the funeral in Deer Park because it was a convenient location in case any of his acquaintances wanted to attend. Keyes grew up in the nearby town of Colville in Stevens County a remote corner of Washington state.
On Sunday, there was no indication of any other attendees besides family, who mostly live in Texas.
Israel rejected the gospel and thus the outcome of his life is this tragic story, said Gardner of the Church of Wells in Wells, Texas.
Gardner said Keyes will be buried later at an undisclosed location in Washington.
Law enforcement officers in Anchorage conducted up to 40 hours of interviews with Keyes after his March arrest in Texas. During that time, Keyes confessed to killing Koenig, Bill and Lorraine Currier in Vermont and five other people, although details about those victims were sparse.
Investigators said Keyes told them he enjoyed killing people and seeing coverage of his crimes in the media.
Keyes told investigators the first violent crime he committed was a sexual assault in Oregon between 1996 and 1998 in which he let the victim go. The FBI is seeking more information on that crime.
Of the five other murders Keyes confessed to, four were in Washington state and one on the East Coast, with the body disposed of in New York.
Law enforcement officers are combing through unsolved homicide files trying to learn who Keyes killed, because he provided little information on those cases.
Authorities in the Spokane and Colville areas have said its unlikely that Keyes was responsible for any of the unsolved homicides on their books.
Shortly before his arrest in March, Keyes attended a sisters wedding in Texas, where he ranted in mid-ceremony about how he didnt believe in God, Gardner said.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER The state of Vermont is banning outside burning of brush to reduce the threat of...

To the surprise of no one, Philadelphia is off to a strong start, winners in seven of its first nine games this season. The bigger surprise is how this team has won so far: with offense, not pitching. The Phillies' supposedly unstoppable rotation has combined to post a 4.74 ERA so far, with only Roy Halladay and Roy Oswalt owning ERAs under 5.59. Not that anyone's seriously worried about this rotation over the long haul. Offensively, they haven't seemed to miss Jayson Werth (or injured second baseman Chase Utley) one bit. They lead the NL in batting average (.334), OBP (.380), slugging (.484) and OPS (.865) and every regular but Raul Ibanez is hitting over .300. And any fears of surviving with Brad Lidge on the DL have been assuaged thanks to

Nats' worst vs. Blanton — Alex Cora (0-for-6)How come I was expecting this news!
- joemktg - Apr 12, 2011 at 1:26 PM
Nats' best vs. Halladay — Ivan Rodriguez (14-for-35, 3 2B, 2 HR, 5 RBI, 6 K), Matt Stairs (10-for-26, 2B, HR, 4 RBI, 2 BB, 3 K).What century was that?
- Traveler8 - Apr 12, 2011 at 1:33 PM
I'm trying to do the math here – how is it that collectively the Phillies rotation has an ERA of 4.74, but only Halladay and Oswelt have ERAs of less than 5.59? Did the numbers get reversed?
- Mark Zuckerman - Apr 12, 2011 at 1:36 PM
Traveler8: Halladay (0.69) and Oswalt (2.25) have each made two starts, so their stellar numbers help bring the overall rotation ERA down. Hamels (5.59) and Lee (7.84) have also made two starts a piece, but Blanton (14.54) has made only one entering tonight.
- Section 8, mice o'fa - Apr 12, 2011 at 1:39 PM
Just guessing, Traveller, but if their ERAs are very low, that would bring the average down.

- joemktg - Apr 12, 2011 at 2:33 PM
@Les in NCMichael Young's a starter, a durable one at that, and is earning $16MM with 2 years left on his contract. If Young is going to be moved, he's going to a contending team where he plays a critical role, not to the Nats where he is a one month starter.
- sjm308 - Apr 12, 2011 at 2:39 PM
Les:Really hope that doesn't happen. If this was August and we were in a playoff race (one can dream can't he?), then maybe renting an overpriced over the hill player might make sense but not now. We either bring up a youngster (Marrero, Brown, Bernadina) or maybe add Bixler to the 40 man roster but I am still pushing to bring up HRod and go with what we have.3B – Cora, Hairston, MorseSS – Desmond, Espinosa, Cora2B – Espinosa, Cora, Hairston1B – LaRoche, Morse, Pudge, Stairs, Not the greatest defensive team but most of these guys will make the average major league play.Go Nats! Hoping for 9-11 or better without Zimm

So when will Rizzo pull the trigger on trading for Albert Pujols? And what pieces do we have to give to get him, especially since LaRoche may not be healed for several months?
- Les in NC - Apr 12, 2011 at 2:46 PM
well, I was thinking….Trade for Young and have him play 3rd for Zimm, then after Ryan is back (and healthy) he could move to 1B for Laroche while he is out having surgery…. food for thought.
- Anonymous - Apr 12, 2011 at 2:46 PM
When will Rizzo pull the trigger on trading for Albert Pujols? Surely the Cards will accept Adam LaRoche and Garrett Mock in trade.
- K.D. - Apr 12, 2011 at 3:09 PM
joemktg; Actually Pudge went 3-4 against Halladay and 4-5 agaist Blanton in 2010.
- Alex - Apr 12, 2011 at 3:22 PM
If LaRoche is hurt, makes more sense to bring up Bernadina since he doesn't cost a 40-man spot and we'd need Morse at 1B. Hairston's already splitting time at 3B now.Only bring up Bixler if Cora or he becomes 3B for a month. And then who do you cut off 40? Hyde?

K.D.: assuming that was during the first half of the season b4 the injury.
- JD - Apr 12, 2011 at 3:23 PM
N.Cognito, We should be able to get Pujols cheap; he's hitting .150 and is in his walk year. You think Atilano and Mock gets it done? Oh, and we should make ST.Louis pay 50% of his salary.

Flores? Didn't see that coming.Mark, do you think the Nats might be able to swing a deal with the Cards for Broderick to open up space in the pen? When HRod arrives he seems the likely reliever to go, all things being equal.
- joemktg - Apr 12, 2011 at 3:35 PM
So historically Pudge hits the Phillies well (see MZ's stats above). LaRoche needs to sit out and rest. Flores, in this context, makes sense.

@Anon 11:50I get the sarcasm and the tongue in cheek, I read through that, but the outright dismissal of anything that might be happening down here is what is grating.

- PAY TO PLAY - Apr 12, 2011 at 4:03 PM
PAY TO PLAY said… I would bring up Flores and Bernadina and HenRod and DFA Broderick and Stairs. Pudge can fill in at 1st base and take more reps there and Flores is a much needed power RH bat. Bernadina can play LF and Morse can play 3rd.When Zim comes back they can send Flores back down as he has options. April 11, 2011 5:17 PM So Bernadina wasn't available but I also picked Flores.What do I win?
- The Joker - Apr 12, 2011 at 4:08 PM
Anyone else think that Zimmerman may be experiencing a sympathy illness. His good friend Adam Dunn is laid up with appendicitis and all of a sudden Zimmerman gets hurt. If King Rizzo had not let Dunn go it is probable that both men would be playing now and La Roche would be on somebody else's injury list.

I have to confess that when SteveM called me at 2 o'clock with the Ryan Zimmerman to the DL news he said he thought they would bring up the only RH power bat they could count on which was Jesus Flores and they were trying to get to Bernadina who is in Curacao so I really can't take the credit, I just kind of added to it.

Re: trading for Young. I am sure it doesn't happen. Texas wants real players or prospects, and his profile likely means contending team. Money is too large for contribution. But you have to know the actual cost before you say don't do it, right?SO… if the Nats could get him for mostly salary relief (meaning lower and more marginal prospects), why wouldn't it be a good deal? Or what if it was for Marquis plus they ate a good bit of salary? Opens a spot for Detwiler. Don't you have to think about that a little bit, at least? It is just money over the next couple of years that probably doesn't prevent them from adding anyone else. Short term relief for Zimm, hedge against lingering Zimm/Laroche injuries, and hedge against MI collapse/injury. Still a quality bat, and a potential pickup for NL move.Only reason I could think that you just absolutely don't want Young is if Riggs felt compelled to play him everyday at one of the MI positions.
- Steve M. - Apr 12, 2011 at 4:53 PM
Mark'd, if I had posted that Jesus Flores was being called up yesterday I would have been laughed at and heckled by the 3 guys that can't stand others being right or having the inside scoop or good insight. I'm not right all the time but I will stand by what I say and admit when I am wrong like Brian Broderick who I thought earned a roster spot and quickly has shown he doesn't belong. I told my buddy P2P and a few others to run with the Jesus Flores. No big deal at all, but I appreciate those who want to listen and hear others thoughts just like I do. I even listen to JayB although I don't agree with him most of the time he gives his own perspective and certainly puts himself out there with his opinions. I can take him anyday compared to Theophilus who stands on his perch and puts down those around him. This is by far the best Blog in DC and the place to come to discuss real Nats news, issues.
- Anonymous - Apr 12, 2011 at 5:26 PM
Kind of a strange time to trade Pudge, no major injuries to catchers around the league. He also probably has some type of no-trade clause in his contract. My thought is Flores will hold a seat on the bench for when Bernadina is available or in the instance Pudge/Ramos has to be used as a pinch-hitter. It is all guesswork at this point.

The price for Michael Young is reportedly too high … one team able to pay it? The Tampa Bay Rays. That comes from them through MLBTR.If Tampa Bay thinks the price is too high with their bevy of prospects? C'mon people!!!!!! Just think!Its one thing to give up prospects for a Grienke its auite another to give them up for an aging third baseman … if Rizzo did that I would be the first to scream bloody murder!

Since the MLB season consists of 162 games, it fits the rythym of a single game; That is 18 nine game segments. Here are my impressions of the Nationals through the 'top of the 1st'. – Starting pitching: A 2-3 W-L record over 50 1/3 IP, with a 2.0:1 K/W ratio, a .244 BAA, a 1.33WHIP, and a 4.29ERA, with 3 quality starts. Solid, but not thrilling. – Relief pitching: A 2-2 W-L in 33 1/3 IP, with 36 GA. Additionally, a 1.65:1 K/W ratio, 3 holds, 2 saves, 2 blown saves, a .231 BAA, 1.44 WHIP, 2.91 ERA. The game appearances (GA) are stacking up quickly, and could lead to some overuse issues later in the season. – Hitting: A .217/.321/.328 slash line overall; That's last in the NL in both BA & SLG, but mid-league in OBP; 2nd in the NL in total sacrifices. In a word – horrid. – Fielding: 14th in the NL in total chances, fewest DP's turned in the league, 13th in overall Fielding Pct, but 2nd in CS% (3 of 7 runners nailed). Better than the hitting, but not by much. Overall – 4-5 record to date. The pitching has been fairly solid, otherwise this team could easily be 2-7. Score = 0-0 through the top of one.

Miserable Liberals Accuse Happy Conservatives Of Wanting To Ruin Happiness
For whatever reason, a few of the liberal blogs have gotten all worked up about a fairly innocuous quote from Kay Hymowitz.
"Before [today], the fact is that primarily, a 20-year-old woman would have been a wife and a mother," author Kay Hymowitz told the crowd of about 100 for the Manhattan Institute in New York City. Men would have been mowing lawns and changing the oil in their family sedans instead of playing video games and watching television. In previous decades, adults in their 20s and 30s were too busy with real life for such empty entertainment, Hymowitz says. "They didn't live with roommates in Williamsburg in Brooklyn and Dupont Circle in D.C.
Is it controversial to note that people in their twenties are a lot less grown up and responsible than they used to be? Yes, it's nice that so many Americans can waste their twenties clubbing and playing Madden — and I mean that. The fact that so many young Americans even have the option to do that shows we have an extremely prosperous society.
Of course, there's also a price to be paid for that prosperity: Percentage wise, we have a lot of "adults" in this country who think like children because they've never been forced to grow up and deal with the real world the way Americans did in past generations.
Pointing this out apparently infuriates liberals, who in their ignorance, tend to confuse hedonism with happiness.
Matt Yglesias wrote a post on this called, "Conservative Opposition To Human Happiness."
Hymowitz's argument, essentially, is that not only has feminism opened up new doors of opportunity to women, but it's helped contribute to the growth of a society in which young men are less crushed down with family and household obligations and are spending more time enjoying themselves. Except she means this as a bad thing! In both cases the conservative conceit seems to be that a decline in human suffering is a bad thing because it leads to a corresponding decline in admirable anti-suffering effort. John Holbo memorably dubbed this Donner Party Conservatism.
Amanda Marcotte at Pandagon wrote a post on this called, The War on Joy.
I think it's important to remember that no matter how much huffing and puffing and rationalization goes on, a great deal of conservative ideology can be summed up as "the haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy". Or even just the fear that someone might just be having fun, at least without clearing it with the authorities first that they're the right race and income level to feel pleasure.
…I often find myself wondering, and today more than most days, how things can get this bad. It seems to me that if wingnuts put a tenth of much effort as they do into resenting others into improving their own home and sex lives, they'd be too busy being happy and blissful to give a f*ck what anyone else is doing. It's just basic logic, and I wonder why not just do the math and go for it.
This is intriguing on more than one level because studies consistently show that married people are happier than single people, religious people are happier than non-religious people, and conservatives are happier than liberals.
Put another way, the married, responsible 20 year olds are probably happier than the kids their age who drink themselves into a stupor every night and play Killzone until they fall asleep. And the religious people that lefties detest so much because they're always coming up with ways to "ruin people's good time?" They tend to be happier than the atheists who don't have all those restrictive Commandments to worry about.
Additionally, Marcotte's tired jabs about conservatives hating sex aren't surprising coming from someone whose philosophy could be fairly summed up as screw everything that moves, follow that with an abortion, and accuse anyone who raises an eyebrow about it of "slut shaming." However, it's worth noting that if you had 100 random people who ideologically agree with Amanda Marcotte in one room and 100 random people who agree with Kay Hymowitz in another, the chances of the Marcotte room being happier than the Hymowitz room would statistically be pretty close to zero. So maybe, just maybe, it might make more sense to listen to people like Hymowitz than Matt Yglesias or Amanda Marcotte if you want "joy" or "happiness" in your life.

Worst ring ever!! My fiancé bought me this ring in Nov 2014. It has been off my finger more than it has been on my finger. 27 days after wearing the ring the first diamond fell out. He sent it back. It took 26 days for exchange. I wore the ring for five days and another diamond is fell out. Ladies and gentlemen do not waste your money on this ring. You also get a card with this ring that has some astronomical amount printed what the ring should retail for. It is very untrue. I had the ring appraised and it is worth nowhere near the amount that this card says. It worth the price overstock is selling it for. Another thing ladies and gentlemen, the website on the card does not exist. Do some research. The brand De couer does not exist outside of overstock. I would hate for any future bride- to-be to go through the same things that I went through with this ring. It has been an absolute devastating experience!! My fiancé is contacted overstock to return this rain and get a refund. He has yet to hear back from them.

Questions & Answers
i love the way it looks and that its a complete set
My wife wears a size 5 1/2 i see the smallest you have is a 6, do you think that would be too big for her? Can i have it resized?
Hello, rachelezell. Hope your day is going well. Yes, you may have it re-sized at a jeweler of your choice. A size six would probably be too large if she wears a 5 1/2. Thank you for shopping with us and please feel free to contact us again with any further questions.
I recommend going to 6. Im usually a 6 and with all three bands it causes of to be snug I went up a size and it fit beautifully. And you can always get it resized at other jewelers
is this ring durable ? sleep in, work out, swim in, shower or will it fall apart my girlfriend tends to forget she is wearing rings so she will never take it off haha.
Hello , Yes this ring is durable.
Hello smith72633, Yes this ring is durable. Please feel free to contact us again with any further questions. Thank you for shopping with us!
Can this be resized to a 3.5? Thank you, Teeny Fingers
Thank you for shopping with us primadonnaofthegutter2138. I took this information from our buying guide. "Bands with stones: Ring sizing on many gemstone and diamond rings can also be altered, but the process depends on the style of the ring and the skill of the jeweler. Sometimes, a jeweler can resize a ring by two sizes but usually not more without resetting the stones. It is not recommended that a ring be adjusted by more than one or two full sizes." I hope this helps.

Every breath can be a chore when you have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
The term COPD includes conditions such as emphysema and chronic bronchitis, the American Lung Association says. Each of these conditions prevents the lungs from working properly.
All people who have COPD develop swelling in the airways. This decreases the airways' natural elasticity, restricts the flow of air through the airways, and limits lung capacity.
With emphysema, the walls between air sacs in the lungs disintegrate, leaving fewer, larger sacs. These fewer sacs don't have as large a surface area to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide, so they aren't efficient. People with emphysema are short of breath during physical activity and may be short of breath even at rest.
In chronic and asthmatic bronchitis, the airways have become inflamed and thickened. The linings of the airways produce too much mucus, which builds up, leading to coughing and difficulty breathing. The muscles that surround the lungs' airways may tighten when they shouldn't. This can cause airways to narrow, making it harder to breathe.
COPD and smoking have a clear connection, according to the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute. Cigarette smoke is the most common cause of COPD cases in the United States. Pipe, cigar, and other types of tobacco smoke also can cause COPD, especially if smoke is inhaled. People exposed to air pollution, chemical fumes, vapors, and mineral and organic dust for long periods of time also are at risk.
COPD develops slowly, and it can take many years before you notice any of these symptoms:
Shortness of breath, especially during exercise
Coughing up mucus
A cough that doesn't go away
Tightness in the chest
If you have any of these symptoms, it doesn't mean you have COPD, but you should see your health care provider for an evaluation.
COPD can't be cured, but you can take steps to keep your symptoms under control and slow the disease's progress. The most important step you can take is to quit smoking and avoid secondhand smoke.
Your health care provider or a lung specialist will suggest treatments based on the seriousness of your condition.
