The Nationals are at Steinbrenner Field in Tampa this afternoon.
One day after hosting the Yankees (er, a couple of actual Yankees) in Viera, the Nationals return the favor today by making the long trek west to Tampa. Er, I should say a couple of actual Nationals.
Truth be told, Davey Johnson put more major leaguers on the bus this morning than Joe Girardi did yesterday. Ian Desmond and Wilson Ramos technically may be the only guaranteed lineup regulars starting today, but Steve Lombardozzi, Mark DeRosa and Jesus Flores should all make the Opening Day bench. And either Jason Michaels or Brett Carroll has a good chance to make it as well.
Then there's Bryce Harper, who has cooled off considerably since returning from a minor calf injury. The 19-year-old is 0-for-5 with three strikeouts in his first two games back, and he did not look comfortable at the plate yesterday. He'll start in right field today, but his opportunities to crack the Opening Day roster are running out.
Gio Gonzalez takes the hill against CC Sabathia in a matchup of All-Star left-handers. (How cool is it to be able to say that?). Enjoy the game and the conversation as always…

If Gio can look as good as he has been, against that lineup, and with that defense, then he definitely has my vote for opening day starter.Go Nats!
- Steady Eddie - Mar 16, 2012 at 4:15 PM
Dave — Agreed. If Opening Day starter means "most proven" in the rotation, then Gio is it. Between two All-Star appearances and the way he looked last Sunday against the Cards' A lineup — relative to Stras and JZimm's ST performances — right now Gio is da man.
- Steady Eddie - Mar 16, 2012 at 4:16 PM
But let's also see how he does today. That is one big time lineup he'll be facing.
- A DC Wonk - Mar 16, 2012 at 4:21 PM
Fourth!(just practicing
- NatsLady - Mar 16, 2012 at 4:34 PM
What is Gio's record against the Yanks? As an AL pitcher did he face them?
- TimDz - Mar 16, 2012 at 4:39 PM
I think it makes sense to have Znn as the number one this year and Stras as the three. This way, you slide Gio in the two slot. A power lefty between two power righties.Since Stras is going to be on an innings limit and the opening day game will be in a (most likely) chilly Chicago, let the kid from Wisconsin start the season. Regardless, I don't think we could go wrong with any of the three.Opening day cannot get here soon enough…
- JaneB - Mar 16, 2012 at 4:53 PM
Mark, what's the word on Wang? I thought there were going to announce something this morning…
- NatsLady - Mar 16, 2012 at 4:57 PM
Look left at the links. Kilgore and Amanda have "two weeks." Still possible for him to make his first start approx. April 11. Davey adamant he will not announce Opening Day starter.
- hondo69 - Mar 16, 2012 at 4:57 PM
Today's game is televised on the YES Network live. I have DirecTV and YES is on Ch. 631. As far as I know, only Dish Network doesn't carry YES.
- Avar - Mar 16, 2012 at 4:57 PM
Agree totally w/ TimDz.Not to nitpick SteadyEddy but the Yankees lineup today is only big time through Jones. Ibanez were horrible last year. His WAR was negative. Wow. I don't think anyone fears pitching to Cervelli, Hall and Bernier. But, yeah 1-6 are tough.
- MicheleS - Mar 16, 2012 at 4:57 PM
JaneB.. So far they say it's a strain and that he will be out a couple of weeks Here is a link to Amanada's article

desmond leading off with a hit. amazing….

I hope Ian hits well enough to get moved. Baseball takes great concentration, he's never gonna have it.
- David - Mar 16, 2012 at 5:12 PM
on another note, we don't have a single walk between Espinosa and Desmond this spring. so far combined they have an OBP of about .217. awful. i think we need to put Werth back at #2.
- sm13 - Mar 16, 2012 at 5:13 PM
I guess that's as good as we could have hoped with CMW. We can be sure they are extra cautious so he doesn't mess up his mechanics and set his shoulder back.
- Anonymous - Mar 16, 2012 at 5:14 PM
Pettite inks back with Yanks at a potentil $2.5M — I think that we just learned two things: 1. Yanks are not potential trade partners for Lannan, if he's still on the block post Wang's hammy problem; and 2. Lannan's value is likely a lot less than $5M for other clubs so he's not likely going to be traded for something great, if he gets moved. We'll see.dfh21

I'm surprised that Mark didn't mention what I sure Tampa is buzzing about; Andy Pettitte is coming back to the Yankees.http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20120316&content_id=27328302&vkey=news_mlb&c_id=mlbStrange days indeed.

fwiw, I've seen out a couple of weeks, rather than a month, reported elsewhere for CMW.
- David - Mar 16, 2012 at 5:18 PM
Ramos hits a DP ball with the bases loaded and no outs, scoring one. Then Flores hits a double scoring Lombo from third. 2-0 Nats in the first. Flores is raking this spring….
- natsfan1a - Mar 16, 2012 at 5:19 PM
Ooh, Nats scored two in the first. Yay!

- David - Mar 16, 2012 at 5:26 PM
and just like that it's 1-0, back to back hits for the yanks to start off.

i mean 2-1

Harper having his difficulties now is a good thing. It makes it easier to send him down to Harrisburg/Syracuse which, probably, was always going to happen.

S'ok David, it's spring for us, too. DCWonk, you missed a chance to yell "FORE!" there.

- Exposremains - Mar 16, 2012 at 5:46 PM
it seems to me that Harper gets pitched tougher than any other Nats player.
- NatsLady - Mar 16, 2012 at 5:51 PM
Expos–I'm sure that's true. With all the publicity, would you want to be the pitcher giving up a dinger to Bryce?
- NatsLady - Mar 16, 2012 at 5:54 PM
Lombo is tearing it up. Making his case, that's for sure. But I think Ryan would have gotten that play in the first innning.
- Exposremains - Mar 16, 2012 at 5:58 PM
I know it's an ego thing from the pitchers, I'm just surprised it gets to them

Lombo homers. 2 for 2 today. 3-1 Nationals
- lesatcsc - Mar 16, 2012 at 6:00 PM
Gio gets my vote for OD starter. 2 time all-star, 16 game winner last year, 200+ inning guy! Have Znn and Stras won 16 between them in their entire careers? Don't get me wrong, they're both great and may very earn the OD start as soon as next year, but give the vet his due. Besides, if CMW ends up in the 5th slot once healthy, Gio would still be slotted between two RHs
- Les in NC - Mar 16, 2012 at 6:01 PM
3rd is not Lombo's position NatsLady. Didn't he win an MILB gold glove for his play at SS? I think we as a team of Nats fans should really start wondering how good Lombardozzi would look manning that position for our team instead of the "wizard of ID".
- DWS - Mar 16, 2012 at 6:02 PM
Never mind the fifth starter, should be a competition for middle infield. Lombo's got my vote.
- NatsLady - Mar 16, 2012 at 6:08 PM
I am SO BORED with Andy Pettite.
- NatsLady - Mar 16, 2012 at 6:10 PM
Les, 100% agree on Lombo not being in his natural position, wasn't trying to be critical. Just observing that Davey has him moving all around the infield. That says to me he will be up at least as utility infielder, and maybe more.
- HHover - Mar 16, 2012 at 6:12 PM
LesLombo played 2B almost exclusively in the minors–400 games at 2B, only 20 at SS.If anyone takes over at SS for Desmond, it will be Espi.

Yikes — nearly a 2nd Wang injury right there.

Great job by Stammen to get out of the inning!

Why didn't the Nationals send only their double A players to play the Yankees today, thus paying back the Yankees for their good deed of yesterday?

i dont think Lombo will be a utility guy. Lombo has to be playing his way to 2nd base… with Espi moving back to SS.
- NatsLady - Mar 16, 2012 at 7:11 PM
Is there a baseball game occurring? Sheesh.
- JaneB - Mar 16, 2012 at 7:17 PM
Do we think Lombo is doing so much better now than in September because a) some winter ball really helped him get better, b) this is ST and the pitching isn't yet as good, c) It's ST so he isn't as nervous as he might have been in September? Probably a bit of all of the above. I'm trying to get a feel for if he is really better, and if this is something we can expect to see from him if he stays up?
- David - Mar 16, 2012 at 7:25 PM
for hitters like Zimmerman, ST pitching is a breeze, but not all MLB quality batters crush ST pitching. i think it's a good sign for Lombo, and for Flores.
- MicheleS - Mar 16, 2012 at 7:34 PM
JaneB.. Didn't Lombo spend a chunk of the off season at Nats Park with RZ and Werth? Maybe he picking their brains.
- Les in NC - Mar 16, 2012 at 7:35 PM
JaneB, IMO they his (Lombo's) stats have been pretty consistent over his minor league career. I would say he is going to be somewhat similar to those stats or just a little under….. maybe somewhere around .280/.340 with a little power. We could definitely use him on the team as a regular in the lineup.
- NatsNut - Mar 16, 2012 at 7:37 PM
1. I can't remember now where I read it (Amanda? Kilgore?), but regarding CMW, with off days, the 5th starter could be pushed back to April 11 before their first start, which Johnson says is "about a month" from now.2. re: Pettitte. It actually made me laugh reading he wants to come back. I visualized him sitting on the couch, looking around, and going, "Holy Crap. What am I gonna do now?" Then…"please let me back in. I'll go minor league if I have to, just let me back in…"
- gonatsgo - Mar 16, 2012 at 7:47 PM
Only gameday today – hate having no eyes on and no Charlie and Dave. But – it sounds like lombardozzi is tearing it up. He also has some much- needed speed and is a switch hitter. Is he wasted in Syracuse where he has nothing left to prove? Can he really get enough playing time up here so that his development won't be stunted? He sounds like he has a great attitude and will play anywhere, anytime. I hate to seem him be this young and be labeled just a utility guy. Trade? What to do, what to do? It's not only the pitching rotation that is up in the air.
- A DC Wonk - Mar 16, 2012 at 7:52 PM

- The Fox - Mar 16, 2012 at 8:14 PM
Jane,Lombo has exceeded all his expectation since he was drafted in the 19th round in 2008. I'm not sure if you saw any of the Showtime TV show "The Franchise" last year when they followed the S.F. Giants. It did give the regular fan a look behind the scenes. One of the most memorable shows to me was when the manager Bruce Bochy told a kid he had made the "Show" and the kid just broke down and cried and it took him awhile to compose himself.Star draft picks like Strasburg or Harper expect to make it, guys drafted in the 19th round its just a dream that they hope will come true. I'm sure Lombo thinks he can be a major leaguer but it was also probably a pretty overwhelming experience for him when he came up in September. Now he feels a little more comfortable and he can relax a little more. As to how good a ballplayer he will end up being my best guess is he will be similar to his father who had 3 good years in Minnesota. Maybe he will even get a WS ring like his dad.

Another Loss, But what worries me is what is up with SToren. Has not pitched in 9 days, 10 tomorrow. Is he hurt?
- gonatsgo - Mar 16, 2012 at 8:28 PM
Anon- Saw an extensive interview with Drew the other night during a game. They asked him when he would pitch again and he said he thought it would be this weekend but had not been told. He said relievers don't need to be stretched out as much and he would get more work in when there were less people in camp for the organization to look at. He seemed fine with where he is for now. I do think it's time for him to get in another game, though.
- rmoore446 - Mar 16, 2012 at 8:46 PM
Likes like Justine Maxwell may make the Yankees roster. I was in Florida a week ago and saw the the Yankees against the Braves. Maxwell batted eighth and came up in the first inning after the pitcher had gone 2-0 0r 3-0 for the seven batters in front of him, Maxwell hacks at the first three pitches he sees and strikes out. I thought, same old Maxwell. But his next time up, he walked, stole a base and scored. He followed that up with an RBI single. And he looked good today. I'd love to see him go north with the Yankees.
- Steady Eddie - Mar 16, 2012 at 8:47 PM
Losses in the late innings of ST games really don't matter unless a MLB pitcher gets bombed (which wasn't the case here — Perry is going to Syracuse and was getting in a second inning just to see what happened). Lannan losing yesterday was a little more bothersome.This non-pitching (what, has he appeared like once?) from Storen is probably more his personal reaction to last year, where he tried a lot of stuff in ST that ended up giving him an ERA of about 10.50. Given that none of that showed up in the regular season, he probably has figured "why do I need this BS to mess with my head?"But you would hope he'd get an inning a couple of times a week. Maybe now that more marginal players are getting sent down?
- Anonymous - Mar 16, 2012 at 8:47 PM
gonatsgo thanks for the Storen Update.
- Steady Eddie - Mar 16, 2012 at 8:50 PM
OK, so it was the Emperor who did the 10th inning and not a second inning from Perry. So much the better (Severino's not getting anywhere near Nats Park before September, if then).
- Anonymous - Mar 16, 2012 at 9:00 PM
The way Lombo is going have to figure Desmond might end up part-time and then the bench if he doesn't hit. Lombardozzi's switch hitting adds a a valuable bat for Johnson … added to Espinosa. Looks to me like Teahen is among the next cuts. Lombardozzi fields and hits better. Blanco's fielding is what's keeping him in the mix. Finally, everyone here forgets what Wang managed to do to get back to where he was before this recent injury. Its completely unheard of and unique in the annals of baseball. You can almost bet Wang will be back by opening day with his work ethic. I'm not sure whether he'll last an entire season as a starter without having to be shutdown … at least in the first year but you have to give the buy his props … and it sure sounds like Johnson is planning on having him in the rotation.
- Anonymous - Mar 16, 2012 at 9:05 PM
HHover, Lombardozzi actually played 33 games at shortstop and 1 game at third base in the minors. But you are right in your contention that the major proportion of his games were at second base.
- HHover - Mar 16, 2012 at 9:18 PM
Anon @ 5:05Curious where you got those numbers. I took the numbers I gave from baseballreference (rounding off the # at 2B); just checked mlb.com and they give the same.Not that the difference bwn 30 and 22 really matters, over 100s of milb games–just curious about where the different #s come from.
- gonatsgo - Mar 16, 2012 at 9:24 PM
Lombo just has so much to offer the team. He has speed, switch -hits and makes a lot of contact, can play in several places. Just seems like he is of great value here. Not a Desi hater but do you think he hears footsteps behind him?
- sjm308 - Mar 16, 2012 at 9:40 PM
Have not checked the box score but I get a pretty good idea that Lombo had a nice game. Also seems like Pettite is back which is very surprising to me. Not noted here and maybe it will be in NatsProspects is what that does to the chances we will be getting our Prop 5 kid back. I realize he is more of a long reliever but the addition of another pitcher for the Yankees can't help his chances.I guarantee you they will not rush Wang and the great thing is, as a veteran who has been through some rough stuff before, he will not rush as well.Again, LannEn to AAA, Detwiler can fill the #5 spot and also handle long relief with the many early days off and we can take another relief pitcher with us, until Wang is ready, when we head North to win the NL EAST!
- JaneB - Mar 16, 2012 at 9:41 PM
Fox, I did see the Franchise, and when that kid broke down, so did I. It was one of the most memorable moments I've ever seen on TV. Thanks, all, for the Lombo assessment. He sure looked good today (stat wise — I didn't spring for the TV part of the MLB app, so just had Gameday). I am a Desi fan (my dogs get "Ian Desmond cookies" when he does something good, for example). But I'm starting to hear the footsteps myself. And count me as one who would LOVE for JMax to go North with the Yankees. I really would.
- Anonymous - Mar 16, 2012 at 9:42 PM
I am a Desi hater — his game has holes you could drive farm equipment through. Davey Johnson wants to win? Having a leadoff man is badly suited for the gig as Desmond makes that very hard. Having a SS with such eratic D as Desmond brings makes it that much harder. He's bad. People need to see him for what he is — I scrub. Talent? Yes. Execution? NO.The Espi to SS and Lombo to 2B combo cannot have downside compared to the Desmond at SS and Espi at 2B model. You get better D and better O with Lombo in there. Desmond should go back to the farm out of ST and drive some of that farm equipment around AAA for a while before he's even on the roster, much less the annointed starter for the Nats at SS for a third failing year.
- Section 3, My Sofa - Mar 16, 2012 at 9:58 PM
People need to see him for what he is — I scrub.No, we don't. We can see him amy way we like.
- Anonymous - Mar 16, 2012 at 10:08 PM
You can see Desmond as Robin Yount or as Ernie Banks or as some other grand or even not so grand performer in-wating all you want. He's objectively bad, and he has never been very good. Ever. Desmond's glove has been lead at every level. And over his 1,000 AB's in MLB he's not done well by any standard you want to employ. Sure, nice speed, and the tools are there. But he has no clue how to perate the tools and he's not getting better. If you want the club to win, if you want the club to chase a playoff spot, then you can't rationally think that Ian Desmond is your best bet. See him for what he is, not "I scrub", but simply a scrub. he's not a MLB caliber staring player much less a qulaity leadoff man. He needs to go.
- ehay2k - Mar 16, 2012 at 10:45 PM
Interesting comment on Nationals Prospects: "Bryce Harper got his first hit since returning from a calf injury, going 1-for-4 with two strikeouts on the afternoon while playing CF. He had no defensive chances, but once again strayed too far afield on the game's final play, and arguably distracting RF Brett Carroll, whose throw was well up the 1B line."What is that last line referring to? Did anyone see the play in question?Also, Desi is NOT a scrub. He is just wildly inconsistent. I believe he will improve under Davey. The one thing you can't argue with is his cannon of an arm. Lombo couldn't make a throw yesterday that Desi routinely makes to beat the runner at first. Of course, Desi has to catch the ball first, but when he is on, he is better than Lombo at SS.My 2 cents, and since it's Friday, and St. Patrick's day is tomorrow, the weekend will be a marathon, not a sprint. Add to that, I just bought 1 case (6 four packs) of Guinness plus one can at a store just south of me, meaning I just brought the best 25 north.Happy Friday all! (Will repost that last bit on the next thread – lookout!)

Fox and JaneB — also saw "The Franchise" and agree that it was a great moment. I also enjoyed the Buster Posey inside look. They did a great job with it – isn't it going to be the marlins this year? ugh. Although, come to think of it, both teams that have done the series have been a little bit jinxed. hmmmmmm.
- gonatsgo - Mar 16, 2012 at 10:53 PM
ehay2k — saw the play in question on Mid-Atlantic snooze fest, which I watched only so that I could see highlights of the game – they were paltry. The commentators suggested that Bryce ran too far over into right field and startled Carroll, causing him to make a bad throw. The Nats outfield coordinator, Tarrasco said on the air that, while he had not yet seen the play, the fact that Bryce had the instincts and peripheral vision to pull off shows that he is indeed learning the outfield well. On the replay, it did not look like a near miss to me, it looked like he pulled off when he saw Carroll coming on. He feels that Bryce has learned a lot in the last year and is comfortable with him out there. They also discussed Bernadina and all of the outfield prospects. It was actually quite interesting.

Oven temperature sensor mal functioning (error code f 4) James N. • Folly Beach, SC • July 20, 2014 My Repair & Advice Pull stove away from wall Remove part of back cover, top left side, to expose where it's plugged in. Plugs matched. Didn't have to cut it off and wire nut them back together. Unplugged sensor. Discovered the 2 screws that hold the sensor are on the INSIDE of the oven. Remove oven racks. Spray screws with WD-40. Remove sensor. BUT first: tie a string to the plug of the old sensor, slowly remove leaving some of the string hanging out the back of the stove. Remove string from old sensor and attach to new sensor plug wire. Use string to pull wire through back of oven. Screw in sensor, plug in, replace cover in back, you're done.

Dignity, Rights, and ResponsibilitiesJeremy WaldronNew York University School of Law November 17, 2010 NYU School of Law, Public Law Research Paper No. 10-83 Abstract: Taking as its point of departure, a Green Paper published by the UK government in 2008 urging greater emphasis on responsibilities, this essay considers various senses of "responsibility" that may be thought important in and around the topic of individual rights. Most likely, the authors of the Green Paper had in mind responsibilities that are correlative to rights and responsibilities that qualify rights or limit their exercise. But an additional idea - which has not been properly considered - is the idea of rights which ARE (in large part) responsibilities, rights which embody responsibilities. An obvious example is the right of a parent to bring up his or her child; it is certainly a right, but it makes reference to an important task that has to be fulfilled in society (the upbringing and nurture of this child) and it assigns that task as a responsibility to the parents and protects them in that assignment (while also supervising them in their performance of it). Once you start thinking in these terms, many rights or claims of right have this structure: think, for example, of the right of gay people to serve in the military; or, from an earlier period, the right of women to serve on juries. In exploring this conception of "responsibility-rights," I relate it to the topic of dignity, inasmuch as the human dignity principle retains some aspects of dignity's earlier association with rank and role. I consider the possibility that human dignity generally can be understood as a source of responsibilities as well as rights, or - along the lines of my conception - as a source of protected normative positions which comprise elements of both. I don't suggest that all rights have this form, but I believe it is a highly illuminating conception nonetheless.

Must Have!
Okay, I found this top as I was already checking out at the store; I threw it in there and said I would return it if I didn't like it. I bought navy and I loved it!!! The "shirred" detail makes it extremely flattering and comfortable! Seriously, if you're considering purchasing this, just do it!
November 12, 2013
Now I like Orange!
I would never buy orange but I just wore this shirt with my brown suit and I received so many compliments at work. The gathering at the tummy does a great job hiding that little bulge! The material is so soft. It really is a beautiful orange color for the fall season!
November 10, 2013
A Must-Have
Love this top! Can. Be worn alone or with jacket. Am 5'7, 135 lbs, 34B and I ordered size S. it fit perfectly and enhanced my shape. Decided to order every color. Highly recommend.
October 23, 2013
Was reluctant to buy this top because I generally dislike anything shirred, however, after reading the reviews and since I desperately needed the dark blue/black color to pair with my TL floral drew pants, I took a chance and ordered it. Is is more than I could have ever expected! I normally wear a TL size S and it fit perfectly. The fabric is absolutely amazing and hugs you in all the right places. I am ordering every color. Can be dressed up or down. An A-lister!
October 10, 2013
Great top
You have to be very careful when washing these types of tops from The Limited, but other than that, I love it. If you have a Limited near you, I would definitely check the store first for this top. I paid a much cheaper price for this than what they're showing online. I had bought one of these tops a while back, but haven't worn it yet. When I saw how cheap they were selling it for in the store, I picked up 2 more that I can save for later.
October 5, 2013
Terrible color - looks cheap
I wanted to love this top, I bought the pink. The color is not as nice as the photo the actual top is more "bubble gum" pink and looks cheap. I thought the shirred front would hide my tiny belly but it just accentuates it. I'm only 5'7 120 lbs but this shirt makes me look pregnant. Maybe the other colors are better but I'm not risking it to find out.
September 25, 2013
New favorite tee for work
I am LOVING this shirt. I bought it in the peach and white colors and am in love with both. I will agree with a couple of the other reviewers that the picture may be a bit misleading with the appearance of a panels on the sides (the side seams are more toward the front than it looks in the picture here), but I found this first in the store so I knew what I was buying. Plus, it looks great under an open blazer or cardigan and at that point it doesn't matter where the seams are.
I am 5'9", 150lbs, and am always on the lookout for shirts that mask that stupid little bump that you can never seem to workout or diet enough to get rid of underneath the belly button, and this is perfect.
For a business casual office, this is perfect with slacks and I love pairing bulky necklaces to create new looks with it, and I can change into cute jeans or cut offs and look great for a night out afterwards.
My absolute only complaint is that it does not look good tucked into a pencil skirt, at least on me.
September 19, 2013
Nice Tee
I bought the black tee and I can dress up or down. The fit is perfect and I plan to get them in different colors.

Thank you for the question! Yes, this top is true to size. While this fabric is a stretch jersey and it tends to be clingy, it has ruching detail in the front that gives a bit more room.1 year, 8 months ago
New Albany, OH, USA
This shirt is not glove-tight around the tummy area, but it isn't baggy like a typical t-shirt. I also ordered a medium - my typical size, and even though it was slightly bigger around my middle than it appeared on the models on the website, I was happy with the fit. I found it to be very concealing of the tummy bulge.1 year, 8 months ago

Generally I wear a medium in knit tops. I purchased this top in a small and a medium to wear with different outfits and like them both. The small hugs my frame a bit more so I can wear it on a night out on the town , while the medium is not as snug and can be worn on a casual Friday.1 year, 7 months ago

color is beautiful and fabric is high quality, (thick, but not heavy). Will be a great dress for fall.

Perfect for Pear Shapes!
I ordered this dress in both the red and blue. The dress fits wonderfully on me being 6 months postpartum and having a pear shaped body. Even though my abdomen isn't exactly what it used to be before giving birth, it's still very flattering, classic and beautiful.
The red version of the dress is the perfect shade. Not too bright or bold. I returned the blue dress because it wasn't the most flattering on me. It's like a smurf blue. I wish I could have the eggplant/plum shade as well. This is one of my favorite dresses.
October 4, 2013
Love This Dress
I love this dress. Fits true to size and perfect for work. I wish they still had it in plum.

Perfect Fall Dress!
I ordered this in mustard for fall! I ordered a size up, because my hips are my widest point and I'm 5'7" so I needed a size that would be longer. For that reason, I'll have to take it in at the waist, but it first great everywhere else and is super versatile and comfy!

Tuesday Dose of Cute: Heading off the Grid
28 comments:
Happy birthday! Rule here is the birthday person doesn't have to bake their own cake. Started when my oldest was only 4 (I had to put it in the oven and take it out, but he did everything else!)
ReplyDelete- Replies
Hi FJ,
I was hoping to have posted this lemon curd cake recipe ages ago. I thought I finally had it perfected (the lemon curd part is definitely perfect!), but this time it came out really wonky, and I have no idea why. Nothing to do but bake another one and see what happens (recipe testing is tough work). Fortunately Joe thinks all the versions (and there have been several) were delish. ;)
- Anonymous7/09/2013 5:55 PM
Happy Birthday! Have been following your blog for a couple of years already. It is an escape for me.
ReplyDelete - MN_DIYmom7/10/2013 4:00 AM
Happy Birthday! I love your blog! And you are the very person who starting my love of Swiss Chard! P.S. The "weed" I've been battling in my garden is Purslane, I can't believe how nutritious it is, and I've been throwing it out by the bushel. And if you let your chickens graze on it, it lowers the cholesterol of the egg yolk. The WI Master Gardener website has a great overview about it. It's amazing! I wonder if you knew this? Anyways, I hope you have a great birthday!!! :)
ReplyDeleteRepliesHi DIYmom,
It's always fun to hear from another Swiss chard convert. You know I love that stuff! (And in case anybody is reading this who hasn't seen my umpteen previous Swiss chard shout outs, it's heat tolerant, cold tolerant, ignored by cabbage worms, and so easy to grow!)
As for purslane, I kept hearing about it growing like crazy as a weed in gardens (including our Amish neighbors about 10 miles away), but I'd never seen any in mine. So this year I broke down and ordered some purslane seeds (which are still in the freezer), and what do you know? A purslane plant popped up in my onion bed. I can't wait to grow more of it. I'll have to look up that overview you mentioned. And I'd never heard that about the chickens and eggs. Very interesting. Our chickens are probably getting a little tired of chard. ;) Thanks!
Hi Everybody,
Thanks so much for all the fun birthday wishes. We had a wonderful day not doing much of anything (except eating!), which was perfect. :)RepliesHappy Belated birthday, sweet friend! I always imagine your birthdays to be full of champagne, chips and dips and dips in the donkey troughs (didn't you say you guys used to do that?) - so I hope you got all of that and more. Though I don't need to know how much more ;)
I also have some pretty badass blackberry jam that I'd like to send your way...
Hugs to all of you creatures.

Happy belated Birthday to you, Farmgirl Susan! Best wishes for a wonderful year of being 40(ahem)something.
You share a birthdate with my father, who turned 85 this year. He was a gentleman farmer in his heyday, and still has plenty of energy to tend his blackberry/raspberry bushes and his beloved black walnut trees. Must be that good ol' farm living, eh? :^)

Can other drivers leverage this? So, will r300g be faster thanks to this?
Phoronix: LLVMpipe's Geometry Processing Pipeline Kicks
A month ago we talked about Gallium3D's LLVMpipe performing well and providing a much better software rasterizer than what is available with classic Mesa. Using LLVMpipe and a modest CPU for acceleration, the OpenArena was just about playable without any GPU assistance. Now a month later LLVMpipe is becoming a even more serious performer. LLVMpipe now is able to tap into the new geometry processing pipeline and it's causing some major performance gains...
I can't pretend to understand much of what this actually does, but it is certainly good news.
Can other drivers leverage this? So, will r300g be faster thanks to this?
Only software drawing (the softpipe driver) has been improved, r300g shouldn't use the CPU for rendering.
As I understand it, softpipe is written mainly for debugging, to compare rendering results (thus finding driver bugs) and to temporarily fill in unfinished functionality on new drivers. I don't think the end user is supposed to use it.
Afaik LLVM won't be used for r300g.
how well does this scale on multicore cpus?
is llvm used as a backend for the gallium layer, which is a backend for mesa?
cpu -> llvm -> gallium3d -> mesa
Thinking about running some LLVMpipe tests this week or next.
The good thing is ability to compile llvmpipe with dri state tracker, so this produces swrastg_dri.so, and replacing swrast_dri.so with this file gives u good boost on software rendering.
LVMpipe leverages the Low-Level Virtal...
Could perhaps be handy for things like WebGL on Netbooks (without Ion, Poulsbo etc.)?

Will cooler heads prevail in today's series finale against the Reds?
After some heated moments late in last night's game (all of them involving Brandon Phillips) the Nationals and Reds return to the field for today's series finale and rubber game, hoping the focus is all on good, clean baseball and nothing else.
The way Phillips' taunting was handled last night — with a fastball to the ribs from Miguel Batista — you would think there won't be any carryover today. Players all said the matter was handled "professionally" and there's no reason to think there's need for any more retaliation today. We'll see if that actually holds true.
Jim Riggleman is going with the same lineup once again. No changes, despite his club's recent lack of clutch hitting and the fact this is a day game after a night game.
Big start for Craig Stammen, whose job could be on the line. Will he be the one replaced by Stephen Strasburg? And if so, will he be sent down to Syracuse, or moved to the bullpen, in which case someone else has to go?
Check back for updates throughout…

I know Guzman's empty .314 BA is fabulously impressive, but it really seems to me the team is better — has a better chance to win — with Kennedy at 2b, at least against RHPs. Guz should start at 2b against lefties, and get in every so often against RHP either at ss or 2b – but to have him start more than 50% of the games is a mistake.

Why don't they bat "Mr. Clutch" behind Willingham?

The thunderstorms have started out here in Ashburn. Heading your way.
- A DC Wonk - Jun 6, 2010 at 6:11 PM
I don't know why Guzzy is slammed so hard compared to other folks on the team. Yeah, I know, I know, he has limited range as a fielder and hardly ever walks.But he has more two-out-RISP hits (two) in the last three games than Adam Dunn has had all season (zero). And I thought this even before he led off today's game with a double (which puts him into a tie for third most on the team, btw — to go along with his 3 triples, second highest on the team).Enough with the Guz bashing already.

- Joe K - Jun 6, 2010 at 6:36 PM
In line with DC Wonk…The thing about Guzman, in my opinion, is that he does some things well, though he isn't a great player. Perhaps the Nats could find someone who can hit right-handers, and set up a platoon at second base. The Cubs have a bit of a traffic jam in the middle infield – it makes me wonder how much it would take to liberate Fontenot (or Theriot) in the off-season, if they choose not to retain Kennedy.
- Grandstander - Jun 6, 2010 at 6:41 PM
Skies are black over Pentagon City right now. Hopefully we can get this thing called before we blow it.Guzman makes up for that pathetic feed to Desmond earlier.

Rizzo just said to Debbi Taylor that "unless something changes" between now and then, Bryce Harper will be the pick.
- Cranky Fan - Jun 6, 2010 at 6:45 PM
Let me be the cranky old man for a moment. Why is it that during any break in the action — rain delay, middle of an inning, conference at the mound, and so on — the wizards operating the scoreboard take down the out of town scores and replace it with the dancine curly W or some other inane graphic. Not even and ad, which I could understand. Breaks in the action are where one most wants the out of town scoreboard.
- Grandstander - Jun 6, 2010 at 6:49 PM
@Cranky FanThe graphics are there to entertain the casual fans who get frustrated during breaks in the action, not the hardcore baseball fans who are interested in what is happening elsewhere.
- A DC Wonk - Jun 6, 2010 at 6:54 PM
Joe K — the thing is, as of this moment, Guz is batting .288 against right handers, which is a better BA than anyone else in today's starting lineup (except for Zim).You're right — he does a few things well, and some things not so well. But he's on a team that can use his hits.
- A DC Wonk - Jun 6, 2010 at 7:03 PM
… and Stammen's only thrown 60 pitches through six innings.OK — Mark, anyone else — who do you send down when Strasburg comes up?
- Anonymous - Jun 6, 2010 at 7:05 PM
It's clear to me that the club needs Guz as an everyday player at least as long as he keeps up this level of play. One high profile error doesn't change the big picture, IMHO.
- Grandstander - Jun 6, 2010 at 7:09 PM
The thing with Guzman is, he's only valuable when he's hitting. If he starts slumping, all you have is a leadoff/#2 guy who can't hit, can't take a walk, can't bunt, can't steal and can't play defense.Pass.
- LoveDaNats - Jun 6, 2010 at 7:12 PM
How about move Stammen to the bullpen and send down Tyler Walker?
- Grandstander - Jun 6, 2010 at 7:24 PM
"How about move Atilano to the bullpen and send down Tyler Walker?"FTFY
- Dave - Jun 6, 2010 at 7:26 PM
@Cranky Fan: I agree with you, but I think Grandstander hit the nail on the head. They do all that useless crap for the casual fan, not for those of us who really follow the game.I wish, simply, they would consistently get the in-game stats properly updated. I'm not in the park today, but last night (knock on wood), I don't think I noticed a single scoreboard mistake. First game I've seen all year where that's the case.
- Cranky Fan - Jun 6, 2010 at 7:42 PM
@Dave: right on; the scoreboard has come a long way since the sad and embarassing [sp? doesn't look right] first year. that first year in the new park we saw wrong pictures; pictures of one guy, stats of another, the auxillary boards not synced with the big board, and so on. but still it's hard to find the numbers on the big board. I could do with less of the cool pictures and more numbers.
- Grandstander - Jun 6, 2010 at 7:49 PM
I'd venture to guess that 95% of the people at any game couldn't tell you what a slugging percentage is and would rather see a blooper reel. Actually, we should bring back the blooper reel!
- A DC Wonk - Jun 6, 2010 at 8:01 PM
I was really hoping it'd be just "Store and Clip" today . . . sigh . . .

Carpenter just uttered ominous words: "It's up to Mike Morse." I had this typed before he doubled in the tying runs. I've learned my lesson.

@smatt1001… better buy us the economy size bottle, please.
- Suicide Squeeze - Jun 6, 2010 at 8:17 PM
I think Riggs should get some credit for the unconventional double steal there before Morse's at-bat. Might have gotten two anyway, but there would have definitely been a play at the plate.
- Doc - Jun 6, 2010 at 8:20 PM
Time for Capps to work it out in a set-up role or less. Make Storen the closer until he proves otherwise!
- Smatt1001 - Jun 6, 2010 at 8:44 PM
So close once again and we come up short. I'm still liking this season better than last though.
- Grandstander - Jun 6, 2010 at 8:47 PM
That's like saying I prefer an interesting life with ups but a few more downs as opposed to a slow, painful, dragged out death.
- Dryw - Jun 6, 2010 at 8:51 PM
Smatt1001, thanks for the reminder. It is still WAAAY better than last year, although these late-inning losses are getting old.
- Anonymous - Jun 6, 2010 at 9:04 PM
I'm afraid this loss goes to Riggleman, Clippard knocking them dead and he inexplicably brings in Capps to blow it! Jim seems like a great guy, but everyone i our section was wondering why the heck he was bringing in Capps.
- Anonymous - Jun 6, 2010 at 9:10 PM
If he's your closer he's your close…gotta do it..once you go another way and it works you have to stay the course..it's a big decision…is he ready to make that decision NOW? We'll find out after presser..would I like to see him hand job to Storen? Yes, i would. But what to do with Capps? Does he accept demotion or become an attitude problem..I assume Riggs and Rizzo are going to be talking about it tomorrow…we'll see
- Smatt1001 - Jun 6, 2010 at 9:31 PM
I'm not saying I like these but last year I had a paperback book in my ball park bag that was usually open by the 6th or 7th inning. At least now it's worth watching the 8th and 9th most of the time. Maybe it's time to see what Clippard can do as the closer until the Nats are ready to throw Storen into the mix.
- NG - Jun 6, 2010 at 9:51 PM
The Nieves batting average is abysmal, but his game calling has arguably been even worse. The decision to have Capps throw back-to-back sliders to Rolen after Rolen had shown no ability to make good contact on Capps' fastball was really the defining moment in this game. Terrible plan + terrible execution = terrible result.I don't think it's a coincidence that Capps' struggles have coincided with Pudge being on the DL. I was one of those who was skeptical that Pudge's game-calling was going to make a big difference, but I'm a believer now. With Pudge back and Strasburg on Tuesday, it's almost like a new season here.
- Anonymous - Jun 6, 2010 at 9:54 PM
Every time Capps has some adversity, he blows up. Bernadina should have probably caught that fly to left. So instead of Capps bearing down he gives up the next double, OK tie game. Settle down, sh-t happens.He then strikes out Rolen on that check swing but it isn't called. He sees adversity again and throws Rolen that same hanging breaker like he threw to El Caballo in Houston and same result, 2 run Homer.I don't get it. I would have thought McCatty or the catcher would have calmed him down after the blown checkswing call to Rolen.
- Anonymous - Jun 6, 2010 at 10:05 PM
Sorry, meant Bernadina "right" field.
- rmoore446 - Jun 7, 2010 at 1:52 AM
NG, you make an interesting point–that Capps troubles began about the time Pudge went on the DL. Nieves may have a lot of responsibility here and not just with Capps. I may be listening to Dibs too much but I think there's something to it.

'Lying on a Beach'
13 July 2009
'Lying on a Beach'
Nice. Day off.
On getting up for the second time I wandered out to the decent local cafe I discovered last week only to find it was closed for Bastille-eve. Gutted. Wandered a little further through the legions of swimwear clad tourists, trying to find a way at least slightly off the beaten track which is pretty tricky in this city. There's a very picturesque 'old town' area, which must have been delightful prior to the arrival of postcard shops and pizzerias. I did eventually find a corner cafe which threw a pretty decent omelette at me. As I ate it and read the paper, I noticed that the only other diner in the place was an elderly lady, rather elegantly dressed and made up and clearly no stranger to the scalpel. She was sitting at a table with a cold drink in front of her. I didn't pay much attention to her, so it was a while before I noticed that she was cradling a pigeon to her chest, very much in 'log lady' fashion. I think perhaps I must be off the beaten track at last.
Apres avoir mange, I spent the afternoon manacled to the laptop, getting on top of the backlog of chores which tend to pile up when you're in perpetual motion. There are some new video sequences underway for various parts of the show, I've a photographer coming to the Berlin show to take production shots, so needed to get that organised, the fog machines still aren't doing quite what I need them to do so have been trying to get that figured out... these are the sorts of random bits and pieces that fill my non-show days.
I did manage to escape in the evening with Tom, our video director, and some non-tour friends who are in town. We headed to Villefranche-sur-Mer which is a picturesque little town just a little way along the coast towards Monaco. For some reason Villefranche does it's whole Bastille firework celebration on the evening of the 13th rather than waiting for the 14th like the rest of the nation. I have friends with a house in Villefranche so they had booked us a table at a restaurant, outdoors on the little harbour front. All evening there is a procession of illuminated fishing boats which is just charming and then at about 10pm all the fireworks go off. It really was lovely, only slightly marred by the accompanying soundtrack of hardcore techno music, which we found a curious choice. Piaf or Trenet might have been a little obvious perhaps, but this was beyond lateral. One of our friends commented that last weekend was Nice Gay Pride, so perhaps they had got the Pride DJ to do a two-for-one deal whilst he was in town. We were fine with it really, but the small troupe of Ukrainian traditional musicians was looking a little crestfallen. By midnight the disco and fireworks were all done and the Ukrainians had seized their opportunity to serenade us until we were finally ushered off the premises by the proprietor, having well and truly closed the place down. Fun night.
Tuesday 14th July 2009. Nice. Load in day.
It's Bastille Day, which is the French equivalent of 4th July and Guy Fawkes night rolled into one. It marks the storming of the Paris Bastille in... 1789?... celebrated with the usual heady combination of pyrotechnics and copious drinking. I celebrated the liberation of the French peasantry via the act of doing my laundry. I found a launderette around the corner from the hotel which was next door to, joy of joys, a little Lebanese cafe, so I enjoyed some tabouleh and humus whilst my socks were going round and round. Also wandered to look at the beach, which has been so far off my radar that I'm barely aware of being on the coast. From the somewhat stunned perspective of being on tour, it's really quite hard to relate to the concept of people lying on a beach.
Went into the venue later, which was quite a surreal experience. Due, one assumes, to an administrative oversight, we appear to be playing this show in a children's playground near Nice-Cote D'Azur airport. The venue is essentially an open field with a very marked absence of stadium - the only bleachered seating is contained within a miniature grandstand, the view from which is almost totally obscured by the mixer tower. Still, there are some pleasantly comedic aspects to the situation. The entire QuadPod structure, including the video screen, is clearly visible from outside the venue, with a freeway flyover affording particularly excellent views. From the carpark across the street, the view of the beast through the palm trees is especially striking.
I didn't stay terribly long, as it was clear that my function for the evening was largely ornamental and besides there were fireworks to go and see. Hitching a ride back into town with a friend who'd come in for a look, we were rather dismayed to find ourselves sitting in hideous traffic as all the residents of the greater Nice area attempted to get to the Promenande des Anglais to watch the Bastille day firework display on the beach. We sat there for an eternity, occasionally catches glimpses of mortar bursts down side streets, before eventually giving up, getting out and walking back to the hotel just in time to miss the festivities entirely. Undeterred we retired to my hotel room balcony with a bottle of tepid rose and called it a night.

Threatened abortion is a diagnosis that is made during the first 20 weeks of pregnancy. While some women have vaginal bleeding in the first 3 months of pregnancy, bleeding and symptoms that could suggest an increased risk of miscarriage are called threatened abortion.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Early-pregnancy bleeding can originate from the uterus, cervix, vagina, or the external genital area.
In many cases, the cause of the bleeding is due to a minor condition that requires no treatment. If you have any vaginal bleeding during your pregnancy, especially if you also have abdominal pain, you should contact your doctor.
Possible causes of bleeding include:
Factors that may increase your risk of threatened abortion include:
The main symptom is bleeding during the first 20 weeks of pregnancy. Bleeding may be light or heavy. You may also have abdominal cramping.
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
Tests that may be done include:
Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Many cases of threatened abortion require no treatment at all. In other cases, treatment options include:
If you are bleeding heavily, your doctor may recommend bed rest. This has not shown to be beneficial, though. Your doctor may also want you to limit your activities.
Your doctor may prescribe progesterone . This is a female hormone that supports a pregnancy.
If your blood is Rh-negative and your partner's blood is Rh-positive, your doctor will give you an injection of Rho immune globulin. This will prevent your body from producing antibodies against your fetus' blood.
While there is no clear way to prevent threatened abortion. To increase your chance of a healthy pregnancy:

The plastic is thin enough so that you don't realize that there is a case on the unit and the cutouts are perfect.
I thought I was ordering the same product that I had used for more than a year. While it looks the same, the quality of these isn't even close. These covers crack within a matter of days and I'm not a hard user. Overstock should be embarrassed to sell these. DON'T BUY.
This is a cheap plastic cover for the iPhone. I purchased it because it was VERY cheap and brought me up to the minimum needed for free shipping. It said it included the screen protector, so the cover would have essentially been free. The screen cover was not included, which was a bummer. I did not notify Overstock, and I'm convinced, based on previous experience, that they would have remedied the situation. I have used the plastic cover. The cover scratched easily and is now cracked ... so doesn't offer real protection, if that's what you're looking for. Having said that, I don't think it makes sense to pay a lot for a cover to protect the phone (If you want to pay for aesthetics or some kind of functionality, that's a different story). I really think the iPhone is sturdy enough that the only thing it needs is a screen protector.
One of the features I liked about this product was that it was very thin and compact. However, is also the worst feature. The case is so thin that it breaks and cracks easily.
Very thin and just want I want so I didn't have a bulky case in my pocket.

Pebble Beach Concours / Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion
Written by Elana Scherr on August 28, 2012

We put on our cleanest coveralls and snuck in to the rich-people party that is the annual Pebble Beach Concours. Besides showcasing Bugattis on the green that cost more than all our readers' organs combined on the black market—not that we're planning on harvesting your organs, dear readers—the weekend also featured auctions and our favorite, the historics racing. Believe us when we say the sound of vintage Trans Am cars on the Laguna Seca Raceway might just be the best thing that has ever happened to us. We also found no small amount of inspiration in early European touring cars and WWII-era custom creations. Maybe you will too.

The worst kind of person. You cannot fully construct a meaning that fully encompasses what this vicious insult means. If you're an asshole, you are disgusting, loathesome, vile, distasteful, wrathful, belligerent, agoraphobic, and more. Assholes are human fecal matter. They are the lowest of the low. They transcend all forms of immorality. It is the very worst of insults; to be called an asshole is to have your very soul ripped apart and shat on. I say that the word "asshole" is the worst cussword of the english language, worst than fuck, shit, and cunt combined.

Sometimes the nuclear option is the only option you've got to shake people out of apathy. Personally I always hated the mplayer -> mplayer 2 fork, if youre gonna fork dont make your fork sound like a version-up its just douchey.
Best of luck to the MPV devs, i hope it wakes people up in both camps.

Mammograms for Women in Need
Roll over image to zoom in
Help close the healthcare gap by bringing early detection to those who cannot afford it.
Mammograms are one of the best methods to catch breast cancer before it's too late. In fact, if the disease is caught early enough, the five-year survival rate is 96%.
But many women in the United States lack health insurance that covers the full cost of mammograms, and cannot afford to pay for them out-of-pocket.
According to a recent report from the American Cancer Society, low-income women in at least twenty states are being turned away or put on long waiting lists for free cancer screenings. At least fourteen states cut budgets for free cancer screenings this year: Colorado, Montana, Illinois, Alabama, Minnesota, Connecticut, South Carolina, Utah, Missouri, Washington, Ohio, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and Arkansas. In California alone, state cutbacks will leave an estimated 100,000 poverty-stricken women unable to get cancer screenings over the next six months.
Elsewhere in the world, the access to mammograms and the ability to catch the disease in its most treatable stages continues to be unavailable to most women. Yet the rate of breast cancer continues to grow. It is now the most common cancer in women in both developing and developed areas and the principal cause of death from cancer among women globally.
You can help. This Gift That Gives More™ helps fund free mammograms for low income, uninsured and working poor women.
