Gun Permit Applications Pouring into Clerk's Office
Please enter your comments below.
Gun Registration???
A move to another state would be a lot better! Socialism and authoritarianism are here... called the Progressives..
Second Amendment is your real permit ... not something from the Govt.
I thought the Second Amendment was every Americans' permit. I guess the liberals forgot to read it
You are now leaving the American sector
Our freedom to exercise our religious beliefs is threatened Our freedom to bear arms is threatened Yet the media can hide behind the freedom of speech If the paper has no issue posting the name of law abiding gun owners Then there shouldn't be any reason not to publish names and addresses of reporter,or doctors who perform abortions Of course this is ludicrous; we wouldn't want people to actually take responsibility for their own actions
If the Buffalo News continues to persue the names and addresses of pistol permit holders in Erie County, we will be canceling. They have no need to know.
You are now leaving the American sector (revised)
The right to exercise our religious beliefs is being challenged The second amendment to bear arms is being challenged Yet the media justifies their actions under the first amendment to publish the names of law abiding gun owners. When did we become a police state? , Is this what society has come to? Then there should be no issue to print the name and address of reporters, doctors who perform abortions or anyone else society wants to single out Of course this would be wrong. There seems to be a thin line between, having the right to do it and being the right thing to do. Why would want to place people in harm's way, just to make a point? We are becoming a self-serving nation where human life is just a pawn to be consumed.
I think this is illegal under the new law
I've only read a little of the new law but from the summaries I've seen the one good thing about this law is that it makes pistol permit records no longer public records that can be released like this.
Leave Obama's daughters alone.
Yes you're hysterical. Yes it's tantrum time again. Yes we know you wingers have, shall we say, "different" ethical standards, but you must at least have some.
The Buffalo News is as left leaning as the NY Times or Washington Post. They like the president and the governor are trying to turn public sentiment against the 2nd amendment. This government knows that they can't go ahead right now and repeal the 2nd amendment because the public is still in favor of 2nd amendment rights...however...they will try to turn the public opinion against the 2nd amendment and they will use the media to persuade the general public to be against 2nd amendment rights. If/when they succeed in doing that then they will move to repeal the 2nd amendment and confiscate all private ownership of firearms. The end game here is not to make anyone safer. The end game is to make sure that the only type of guns anyone can own are sguirt guns.
Bflo News Wants Permit Holders Names Addresses - for TYRANNY - Concentration Camps in near future
Who Owns Buffalo News? Warren Buffett Who Is He? New World Order/Global initiative member/ elitist Getting the names of everyone locally that owns guns is to identify who to go after when they come to take us away to the Auschwitz/FEMA Concentration Camps. This gun grab is heading there. DON'T DOUBT THIS. This Plan has been in the making for over 50 years. If they get our guns - Our Freedoms End. Tyranny is happening now, speeding up, and won't stop until we are identified and slaughtered.
Freedom of Information Act
I will cancel my subscription to the Buffalo News if they print or make a available a complete list of Erie County pistol permit holders.
Why not put up a sign?
That the Buffalo News would suggest that their need to know should surpass privacy laws is quite upsetting. As a woman who lives alone, I don't want to advertise I have a gun, which is valuable, let alone that I am armed, as some weirdo's consider this a come on. Further, many people have issues with woman gun owners, like we're not smart enough to handle a weapon. The police have the information to determine whether or not someone is a legal gun owner, and the Buffalo News should concentrate on getting their information straight and reported properly (which it often isn't), instead of jumping into a kettle of fish without a life jacket.
I'm offended they even asked.
I don't believe for a minute the reason they stated for requesting the information. If they were given the info requested and they didn't get any negative press about it, it would have been published. Left winged liberals are going to ruin this country.
News requests a list of permit holders
I think that it is time for all permit holders in Erie county to cancel their subscriptions to this rag of a news paper. I am canceling this morning.
Wow these people can whine.
What is it about right wingers and acting like a bratty four year old anyway? Just get out already, move to Glenn Beck Paradise. Go!
Thank you Gov Cuomo and Pres Obama
This idea of giving crazy people assault weapons has to stop, and this is a positive step. Unfortunately the international arms dealers' lobby (NRA) has a lot of money and can buy a lot of propaganda, much of which is effective as you see by the childish behavior in this comments section, for one example.
think again
any list that may shows gun owners would also give rise to the fact of which houses would not have guns, makes it easier for thieves to pick and choose easier home evasions. i would be concerned either way if i had guns or not.
Grand Standing
So law abiding gun owners are being put in the same pot as sex offenders. Really? My news subscription is now cancelled!!! This is just an example of liberal grand standing and serves no purpose.
The problem is psycopaths, not guns
Gov. Cuomo declared war on honest gun owners. If they don't register certain guns with the State Police within a certain time frame they become criminals and their gun/s confiscated. Now the BuffNews issues an implicit threat to pistol permit holders. I believe they will publish their names and addresses of permit holders and provide a roadmap for burglars on where to steal handguns. If the County Clerk complies with the NEWS FOI request, he will put families in danger. I wouldn't give you a nickel for the future of the BufNews.
A quote from Ronald Reagan
"I do not believe in taking away the right of the citizen for sporting, for hunting and so forth, or for home defense. But I do believe that an AK-47, a machine gun, is not a sporting weapon or needed for defense of a home."
Obama's 960 Executive Orders...
Obama signed over 960 Executive Orders during his First Term -- getting around Congress -- Now with the guns, nearing 1,000 -- (Previous Presidents signed LESS THAN A DOZEN Exec Orders!). Sooo, just what DID Obama sign into LAW? Anyone want to publish THAT List?
I just cancelled. F the News.
I canceled my subscription already
A bunch of my other pistol carrying permit older's friends also cancelled there subscription.More people should do the same,
Please break in to my house and steal my gun, my address is......
Really, guns are so bad we need tighter restrictions but lets publish a list of of homes who are known to have at least on gun in them. That would be like putting a sign on my mail box saying "i keep $1000 in cash in my sock drawer, be back after 5"
time to take out an ad in the buffalo news
and print all the names of the staff members on there along with addresses... this way it can be cross referenced with if they have a gun or not
google map the buffalo news employees
create a google map with all of their personal & public information and direct unwanted attention to them and their homes. While they are at the news working, their homes will be ripe for burglary. Their idiocy will stop quicky. Lame reasons Buf news.
It's not going to stop...
Left winger extremists have 2 things in common, they are never satisfied and they never quit. This attack on our Second Amendment rights is just ramping up. They won't quit until we are totally disarmed. What's next? The Fourth Amendment, so they can invade our homes? The Twenty Second Amendment so Obama can be "re-elected" to serve more terms. God help us.
I love when libs quote Reagan
Even Reagan with Alzheimer's is smarter than a liberal/comrade. Using Reagan is slmost as good as when anti God liberals quote the bible. Anyway lets quote the Chicago Jesus, Barack Huessein Soetoro Obama shall we? "I ate dog" "fundamentally transform" or the classic "I will not raise taxes on the middle class" "I promise to close gitmo" – 2008 "failure of leadership. Americans deserve better. I therefore intend to oppose the effort to increase America's debt limit." – 2006. "I spent the last two years of high school in a daze, locking away the questions that life seemed insistent on imposing. I kept playing basketball, attended classed sparingly, drank beer heavily, and tried drugs enthusiastically." I could go on. Everyone, there is no left and right political paradigm, they are the SAME. There is the ruling oligarchy, who are controlled by evil entities, foreign and domestic, and the rest of us. They will say and do anything for power over you. Don't think so? You will know after an established politician, or the next family member of Bush or Clinton becomes president. Wake up useful subjects.
Alert the advertisers.
In addition to canceling you subscription to the BN, make sure you alert the company's that advertise in their paper. The BN could care less about your subscription but, informing their advertisers, will hit them in the pocketbook and that's what's important to them, not you.

Gallery: Swedish Passive Home Could Cut Carbon Footprint by 8x
The electric car will use a charging station made by Vattenfall that is mounted in the home's car port.
The One Tonne Life project was started and sponsored by Swedish wooden home builder A-hus, renewable energy firm Vattenfall and car maker Volvo. Designed for a four person family, the One Tonne Home is an experiment in low carbon living.
The home includes many hallmarks of solar passive design, including a tight building envelope, thick insulation, shaded windows, and a strong insulating foundation. These measures ensure that the home can be powered completely by thin-film solar panels on the roof of the house and the carport. The home will be built by A-hus, whose goal is to build climate-smart wooden houses.

How does kidney failure affect a person's health?
Kidney failure can affect a person's health in several ways. Some people experience fatigue, some lose their appetite, and some have leg cramps. These problems are caused by waste products that build up in the blood, a condition known as uremia. Healthy kidneys remove waste products from the blood. When the kidneys stop working, uremia occurs.
The kidneys also make hormones and balance the minerals in the blood. When the kidneys stop working, most people develop conditions that affect the blood, bones, nerves, and skin. In addition to fatigue, loss of appetite, and leg cramps, some of the more common problems caused by kidney failure are itching, sleep problems, restless legs, weak bones, joint problems, and depression.
[Top]When is uremia likely to occur?
Uremia is likely to occur when a person reaches the final stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD). People with CKD often feel no symptoms until the kidneys are severely damaged. Usually when people develop symptoms, their kidney failure has progressed to the point where they must have regular blood-filtering treatments called dialysis or receive a kidney transplant to stay alive. Kidney failure treated by dialysis or transplant is called end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The word "renal" refers to the kidneys. Even people who have dialysis treatments may experience some of the problems of uremia if they skip treatments or eat foods not recommended for people on dialysis.
[Top]Can uremia be avoided?
People with kidney failure can avoid most of the problems of uremia by having regular dialysis treatments and limiting foods that contain sodium, potassium, and phosphorus. People who have CKD should see a kidney specialist—called a nephrologist—regularly to track the progression of the disease so they can begin appropriate treatment before uremia occurs.
Even though health care providers can treat most of the complications of CKD and ESRD, people with these conditions should know what to expect when their kidneys fail.
[Top]What problems can occur during hemodialysis?
During the first few weeks of hemodialysis—a type of dialysis that uses a machine to circulate blood through a filter outside of the body—many people find that rapid changes in the body's water and mineral balance can cause problems. Muscle cramps and hypotension—a sudden drop in blood pressure—are two common side effects. Hypotension can make people feel weak, dizzy, or sick to their stomach.
Many people need a few months to adjust to hemodialysis. Side effects can often be treated quickly and easily, so people should always report problems to their health care provider and dialysis staff. Many side effects of hemodialysis treatments can be avoided by following a diet tailored for hemodialysis patients, limiting liquid intake, and taking medications as directed.
[Top]How does kidney failure affect the blood?
In addition to uremia, kidney failure can also cause anemia, a condition in which the red blood cells are fewer or smaller than normal, which means less oxygen is carried to the body's cells. Anemia can cause extreme fatigue and can worsen existing heart problems.
Anemia is common in people with CKD, as well as those on dialysis, because the damaged kidneys slow the production of the hormone erythropoietin (EPO), which helps the bone marrow make red blood cells. Less EPO means the body has fewer red blood cells, resulting in anemia. A synthetic form of EPO is commonly prescribed for people on dialysis.
[Top]How does kidney failure affect the heart and blood vessels?
People with kidney failure, particularly dialysis patients, have far higher rates of heart and blood vessel problems than people without kidney problems. Heart attacks are the leading cause of hospitalization and death among dialysis patients. Kidney failure also raises the risk of other cardiovascular problems such as blockage of blood to the heart and congestive heart failure. People who have kidney failure need to monitor their cardiovascular health, take all prescribed medications, and follow their health care provider's instructions for diet and exercise.
[Top]How does kidney failure affect the appetite?
People who have uremia often lose their appetite. Some people find that food tastes different. Some no longer like foods they once craved. In fact, many people feel sick to their stomach at the thought of eating. But getting enough protein and calories is important for staying healthy. People with kidney failure should talk with the renal dietitian at their dialysis clinic or transplant center to find foods that are appealing and provide needed nutrients.
[Top]How does kidney failure affect the skin?
Many people treated with hemodialysis complain of itchy skin, usually on the back, chest, head, or limbs. The itching is often worse during or just after dialysis treatment due to the waste products that are not removed from the blood during dialysis.
The problem can also be due to the damaged kidneys' inability to balance the levels of the minerals calcium and phosphorus in the blood. The resulting low levels of blood calcium trigger four pea-sized glands in the neck, called the parathyroid glands, to release parathyroid hormone, which draws calcium from the bones back into the blood. The high levels of parathyroid hormone can cause itching. Some people feel much better after having most of their four parathyroid glands removed. As long as one parathyroid gland remains, it can regulate the calcium and phosphorus balance in the blood.
Damaged kidneys cause phosphorus to build up in the blood, which can also cause itching. Often, medications called phosphate binders—such as calcium carbonate (Tums), calcium acetate (PhosLo), sevelamer hydrochloride (Renagel), or lanthanum carbonate (Fosrenol)—are prescribed with meals and snacks to bind phosphorus in the bowel, decreasing its absorption into the blood. The resulting lower blood phosphorus levels seem to ease the itching for some people. Reducing the dietary intake of phosphorus can also help.
Other people find relief after exposure to ultraviolet light. Ultraviolet light can be absorbed simply by spending time in sunlight or near a light box, a therapeutic device that uses several fluorescent lights. Still others improve with EPO shots. A few antihistamines, such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl) and hydroxyzine (Atarax, Vistaril), have been found to help. People should consult their health care provider before starting any therapy that includes over-the-counter medications.
A cure for itching that works for everyone has not been found. In some situations, a health care provider may refer people to a dermatologist, a doctor who treats people with skin problems.
[Top]How does kidney failure affect the bones?
Kidney failure weakens the bones due to a condition called chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder. As discussed in the previous section, kidney failure can throw off the balance of calcium and phosphorus in the blood, causing the parathyroid glands to produce too much parathyroid hormone. The high level of parathyroid hormone draws calcium from the bones into the blood, leaving the bones without enough calcium. Chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder describes the imbalance of calcium and phosphorus and how this imbalance weakens the bones. The condition affects 90 percent of dialysis patients, both children and adults, causing bones to become thin, weak, or malformed. Symptoms can be seen in growing children with kidney disease even before they start dialysis. Older patients and women who have gone through menopause are at greater risk for this disorder. Controlling parathyroid hormone levels prevents damage to bones. Usually, overactive parathyroid glands are controllable with an adjustment in dialysis treatment, medications, or changes in diet. In some cases, removal of most of the parathyroid glands may be useful. Reducing dietary intake of phosphorus can also help prevent bone disease.
[Top]How does kidney failure affect the joints?
Kidney failure can cause pain, stiffness, and fluid in the joints, the points where two or more bones come together. These symptoms result from amyloidosis, a condition in which an abnormal protein in the blood called amyloid is deposited in tissues and organs, including the joints and tendons—the tough bands of tissue that connect muscles to bones. Healthy kidneys filter amyloid protein out of the blood, but dialysis filters are not as efficient as the kidneys in removing amyloid. Dialysis-related amyloidosis is common in people who have been on dialysis for more than 5 years. No treatment to reverse amyloidosis has been found, although a successful kidney transplant may stop the disease from progressing. Health care providers can advise people on the best ways to relieve their pain.
[Top]How does kidney failure affect sleep?
People who have kidney failure often have insomnia—trouble getting to sleep and staying asleep. Insomnia and other sleep disorders can worsen a person's quality of life. People with kidney failure should discuss these problems with their health care provider.
Some people suffer from sleep apnea syndrome, which may be related to the effects of advanced kidney failure on breathing. Episodes of apnea are breaks in breathing during sleep. Over time, these sleep disturbances can lead to day-night reversal—insomnia at night, sleepiness during the day. This condition can cause headaches, depression, and fatigue. Some treatments may work with people who have sleep apnea, whether they have kidney failure or not. These treatments include losing weight, changing sleeping position, and wearing a mask connected to a small machine that gently pumps air continuously through a hose into the nostrils—nasal continuous positive airway pressure, commonly known as CPAP.
Many people on dialysis have trouble sleeping at night because of aching, uncomfortable, jittery, or restless legs. They may feel a strong impulse to kick or thrash their legs. Kicking may disturb a bed partner throughout the night. Theories about the causes of this syndrome include nerve damage and mineral imbalances.
Moderate exercise during the day may help, but exercising a few hours before bedtime can make restless legs worse. People with restless legs syndrome should reduce or avoid caffeine, alcohol, and tobacco. Some people also find relief through massages or warm baths. Health care providers may prescribe medications called benzodiazepines, often used to treat insomnia or anxiety, for relief of restless legs syndrome. Benzodiazepines include clonazepam (Klonopin), chlordiazepoxide (Librium), diazepam (Valium), and triazolam (Halcion). A newer and sometimes more effective medication therapy is levodopa (Sinemet), which is also used to treat Parkinson's disease.
[Top]How does kidney failure affect mental health?
Many people feel depressed when starting dialysis, or after several months of treatment. Adjusting to the effects of kidney failure and the time spent on dialysis can be difficult. People on dialysis also have less energy. They need to make changes in their work or home life, giving up some activities and responsibilities. Keeping to a schedule can be difficult when kidneys fail. Accepting this new situation can be hard. A mental health counselor or renal social worker can help people who are approaching total kidney failure and those starting dialysis. People who have kidney failure and depression should not keep their depression to themselves or assume they can handle their problems on their own. They should tell their health care provider because depression can often be treated with adjustments to the diet and dialysis dose, medications, and counseling. Scientists are also studying the use of cognitive behavioral therapy—a way of correcting harmful thought and behavior patterns—to treat depression in people with total kidney failure.
[Top]Eating, Diet, and Nutrition
For people who are on dialysis or approaching total kidney failure, adequate nutrition is important for maintaining energy, strength, healthy sleep patterns, bone health, heart health, and good mental health. A person's treatment will dictate the type of diet that should be followed:
- People on hemodialysis must watch how much fluid they drink and avoid eating foods with too much sodium, potassium, and phosphorus.
- In contrast, people on peritoneal dialysis—a type of dialysis that uses the lining of the abdomen, or belly, to filter the blood inside the body—may be able to eat more potassium-rich foods because peritoneal dialysis removes potassium from the body more efficiently than hemodialysis.
- Both hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis can remove proteins from the body, so anyone on either form of dialysis should eat protein-rich foods such as meat, fish, and eggs.
For more information about nutrition for people with advanced CKD or who are on dialysis, see Nutrition for Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease in Adults or Eat Right to Feel Right on Hemodialysis from the National Kidney and Urologic Diseases Information Clearinghouse at www.kidney.niddk.nih.gov.

- For people who are on dialysis or approaching total kidney failure, adequate nutrition is important for maintaining energy, strength, healthy sleep patterns, bone health, heart health, and good mental health.
- All dialysis centers and transplant clinics have a renal dietitian who specializes in helping people with kidney failure. People who are on dialysis or have a kidney transplant should talk with their clinic's renal dietitian to develop a meal plan that will enhance the effectiveness of their treatment.
Hope through Research
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) is devoted to improving the lives of people with kidney disease. Its Division of Kidney, Urologic, and Hematologic Diseases supports several kidney programs and studies. These focus on improving treatment for patients with kidney disease. The End-Stage Renal Disease Program promotes research for patients on dialysis or with a kidney transplant. The research is designed to reduce medical problems in kidney failure. These include bone, blood, nervous system, intestinal, heart, and endocrine problems. The program is also designed to improve the effectiveness of dialysis and transplantation. Current efforts focus on home dialysis options and alternative dialysis schedules. They include short daily sessions or long nightly sessions.
Participants in clinical trials can play a more active role in their own health care, gain access to new research treatments before they are widely available, and help others by contributing to medical research. For information about current studies, visit www.ClinicalTrials.gov.

Livan Hernandez faces Jair Jurrjens tonight at Nationals Park.
With yesterday's drama (both on the field and in the GM's office) behind them, the Nationals get back to simple baseball business tonight, hosting the Braves (who, by the way, lost the 10,000th game in their franchise's illustrious history yesterday, just two weeks after winning their 10,000th game).
The Nats played the wild-card leading Braves tough in that series at Turner Field and should have taken two of three if not for an unsightly collapse in the Sunday finale. Atlanta, though, has a new reinforcement atop its lineup: Center fielder Michael Bourn, who was acquired yesterday from Houston.
Livan Hernandez gets the ball for the Nationals, facing 12-game winner Jair Jurrjens. It's another ridiculously hot afternoon in the District, though there is a chance of a storm sweeping through town right around gametime. Check back here for updates…

Chance of storms, Jair Jurrjens, Michael Bourne – sounds ominous.

Let's Go Nars!!
- natsfan1a - Aug 1, 2011 at 7:55 PM
Let's go, Good Livo! Didn't the Nats hit Jurrjens pretty well last time around? Don't forgot your "congrats on 10,000 losses" sign if you're heading out to the park tonight.
- NatStat - Aug 1, 2011 at 7:56 PM
Time to scalp the Braves again (I guess their hair grew back, after we scalped them in that last series in 2009, when we won 4!).
- Navy Nats Fan - Aug 1, 2011 at 8:00 PM
Hey NatsLady – I have an extra JW Bobblehead with your name on it if you still need one.
- Navy Nats Fan - Aug 1, 2011 at 8:01 PM
And the captcha was "bullyto" – which must mean Teddy wins tonight…
- natsfan1a - Aug 1, 2011 at 8:04 PM
I think she said she got one from a Mets fan, Navy, but nice of you to think of her. I'd be happy to take it off your hands but don't know that I have any remaining spares to barter.Teddy = loser. Just ask FP.
- SonnyG10 - Aug 1, 2011 at 8:18 PM
Let's go Nats! Show the Braves they were Bourn to lose!!!
- Richard - Aug 1, 2011 at 8:33 PM
Before moving on to the Braves, was there enough Morse love yesterday? Yeah, 2 doubles and a rope to deep RF field that was caught but how about his D? His great at 1st. For example, yesterday, using all of this 6'5" frame, he managed to leap and snag Werth's very off-line throw from RF in the 3rd inning, with the bases loaded, and wheel and throw to 1st to Espi to double off Murphy and end the inning. Wow. Had he not managed to grab the throw, the ball may have gone to the backstop or at least the inning is still going. (BTW, the pitcher on 3rd woulda scored had he attempted to, b/c Werth's throw wasn't going to be near the plate. But, anyway …) Instead, JZimm goes on to have one of his better games. Rizzo should be extending Morse now or at least announcing his intent to do so. He's done enough with his bat and that great glove for God's sake. Talking about maybe he's in the OF next year seems demented. The guy's a 1st baseman. Something is wrong with this picture.
- Nats Outsider - Aug 1, 2011 at 8:51 PM
Richard said, "Talking about maybe he's in the OF next year seems demented. The guy's a 1st baseman."Morse has been a wonderful surprise at 1st base, but I don't think he is as good defensively as Adam LaRoche. Assuming that LaRoche is back and healthy, he has to play 1st. The only way to keep Morse's bat in the lineup is to put him in the outfield. On the other hand, with two excellent 1st basemen, it does give the Nats some trade possibilities.
- Steve M. - Aug 1, 2011 at 9:09 PM
Nats Outsider, agreed. A healthy LaRoche gives you 2 options: 1) Morse to LF 2) Trade LaRocheThat is 2 good options to have!
- NatsLady - Aug 1, 2011 at 9:10 PM
Navy, thanks SO much for thinking of me. Yes, I bought one from a Mets fan after the game, and I don't have one to trade. So maybe someone else will trade with you.I only have Frank Howard and Pudge, and Frank is missing his bat. But the next two bobbleheads are also at 7:05 on Saturday, so my chances are slim on getting either of those. Keep me in mind.
- NatsLady - Aug 1, 2011 at 9:12 PM
Morse is good, but LaRoche is unbelievable at first base. It will be great to have them both.
- Depot Master - Aug 1, 2011 at 9:21 PM
Morse should be signed to Multi-year. Laroche should be traded to Tampa Bay as part of a package for Upton.
- NatsLady - Aug 1, 2011 at 9:27 PM
Tampa Bay probably can't affort LaRoche.
- Steve M. - Aug 1, 2011 at 9:37 PM
NatsLady, I agree. Can't believe LaRoche doesn't have Gold Gloves lined up in his trophy case. To have both of these guys healthy on Opening Day 2012 would be a real treat.It is amazing when you consider all the things that went wrong with the 2011 team with Zim's and LaRoche's injuries, Werth's slump, Burnett/Slaten falling apart, and the saga of Stairs, you would think 100+ losses.Rizzo did a good job in defining the 2011 team with athleticism and defense and LaRoche/Morse have definitely contributed to that. I hope Rizzo improves the bullpen with "sure things" and gets that #3 starter to go with JZim and Stras to be followed by LannEn and a #5. A high OBP centerfielder would be great but not high on the priority list compared to the others.What Rizzo didn't do right was righting his wrongs quickly like good GMs do. It isn't personal, it happens. Stairs, Gaudin, Slaten, Burnett, Henry Rodriguez, and Brian Broderick were all duds and 2 of them are still on the team.
- ehay2k - Aug 1, 2011 at 9:58 PM
Hey Navy Nats Fan – I have tix for the 24th against the D-backs. Happy to trade, as I have 2 copies of da Meathook. How best to coordinate?
- NatsLady - Aug 1, 2011 at 9:59 PM
I think he got rid of Broderick pretty fast and I don't fault him when we have a not great team for taking a flyer on a Rule 5 guy, it's cheap. Gaudin and Slaten also were gone as soon as it was clear they were not working out. Stairs we've heard about ad nauseum, but he wasn't taking a bullpen slot, so not relevant to this discussion.The problem with Henry is he has no options left, and he would not clear waivers. So, unless you are ready to give up on him completely, you have to keep working with him and hoping.The problem with Burnett is twofold (a) everyone remembers how good he was last year and (b) he will do ok for a couple of appearances and then bam, he's back to giving up homers, luckily yesterday with no one on base. If Detwiler goes back to the rotation, again, there is no other lefty in the bullpen. Any way, Detwiler isn't being used as a left specialist, and neither is Gorzy.And Burnett hasn't proved he can get lefties out any more reliably than righties, has he? I'd like to see stats.Until you are ready to bring up other pitchers, I don't see what moves you have except to not used Coffey or Henry for more than one inning, and only use Burnett for mop-up and we don't seem to have many blowouts, either way.
- Richard - Aug 1, 2011 at 10:30 PM
Any guess which team has the worst team BA re the leadoff spot — by 50 points, at .192? You guessed it, our Nats. Wow. Their OBP is also the worst but only by 10 points.
- NatsLady - Aug 1, 2011 at 10:40 PM
Richard, didn't realize it was that bad, but can't say I'm totally surprised. The two-spot is probably not that great either, alternating Desi and Espi… So not much average til Zimm, Morse, and now Werth, and Ramos… Big holes.
- Anonymous - Aug 1, 2011 at 10:53 PM
Steve M.. I agree on Rizzo. he has a hard time admitting he's wrong and waits too long to cut his losses. Plus he saves too many valuable roster spots for the hopeless, when i would rather see some youngsters that are going hot in the minors get a few call ups. Other than the obvious duds, letting Laroche play with that bad wing just killed start of the season along with Morse's mystifying early slump. What's your take on Espi and Desi? Espi is scaring me. His strikeouts, he's not even close to hitting that ball. I've never seen a team swing and miss quite like the Nats. Desi is just not a hitter. He throws his whole body at the ball rather than swinging around his body.
- swang - Aug 1, 2011 at 11:09 PM
Didn't realize Rick Eckstein was an anon on this board. What're you doing surfing Nats Insider 10 minutes before the game starts? Get back to the game!
- sunderland - Aug 2, 2011 at 12:23 AM
Anyone out there? Livo is schooling Jair today. Livo with the bat. Livo with the glove.
- sjm308 - Aug 2, 2011 at 12:24 AM
Livan is lucky (I don't have the stats on that) but he really is a good fielding pitcher and he also hits pretty well. Going into the 5th and its a one run game. What a surprise.Flynnie – how about that intentional walk??
- Sean Kelly - Aug 2, 2011 at 12:28 AM
BOOM goes the dynamite!
- dj in Fl. - Aug 2, 2011 at 12:29 AM
Ok Mr. Ankiel, if you want the job just keep that up. By golly we will make you lead off and play center regularly.And my just announced he is cute to boot.
- sjm308 - Aug 2, 2011 at 12:32 AM
I really like watching the dugout during games. 308 lets me do that. Just had a couple thoughts. What I see of Gomes is that he is active even when not playing. He was just over patting Ankiel on the back after his 2nd homerun. It's also kind of neat to see CM Wang giving high fives as well. I realize most people here are not thrilled with how the Nationals handled him but even if he never makes it back fully, at least he was able to enjoy big league ball once again. He has to feel good about that and actually so do I.
- gonatsgo - Aug 2, 2011 at 12:32 AM
WTF is up with Ankiel tonight? While he was on the DL, someone switched him with an alternate universe Ankiel. I am usually the first one to make nasty comments about how he swings out of his shoes on every pitch. Well – he does – but tonight he is connecting. Livo with an rbi and Ankiel with 2 hr's – you just never know on any given night what the heck is going to happen with this team! By the way – this site is very quiet tonight… Just finished a big storm here….
- Knoxville Nat - Aug 2, 2011 at 12:33 AM
Watching the game on Braves television network (MASN gets blacked out here when the Nats play Atl and Cincy)and when Livo had his first AB the announcer noted that he was 2 for 2 against Jair in his career. With the first pitch being high and a bit tight the announcer made a comment, somewhat tongue in cheek about Jair "perhaps sending a message" to Livo. How sweet it was to see Livo come through with a base hit in that situation.
- flynnie - Aug 2, 2011 at 12:42 AM
sjm – intentional walks should ALWAYS be punished. Here's Posnanski: "I'm always on the lookout for terrible intentional walks because I think ALL intentional walks are terrible. I would love to be the Carrie Nation of the intentional walk. In any case, Rich found a beauty …On Tuesday, the Rockies were playing the Braves and they were leading the game 7-2 when Ian Stewart came up with a man on third and two outs. I'm going to repeat the situation: Man on third base … two outs … Braves trailing by FIVE RUNS. If there was an intentional walk chart, then this situation would be on the there with the phrase: "You're joking, right?"Here's the wonderful kicker: Ian Stewart is hitting .143 this year.Yes, the Braves intentionally walked him.Legendary. Absolutely legendary. I'm proud and happy to say that this completely blew up on the Braves — a walk followed, then a three-run triple, then another walk, then a hit-by-pitch. But to me that's not enough. I'm not saying that intentionally walking Ian Stewart in that situation — in ANY situation, but especially in that one — should lead to jail time. But at least community service. Remember the Braves walked a .132 hitter recently and lost the game!"Just got home and have been listening to LIVO the MAN via Charlie and Dave. WHAT A BALLPLAYER!!! How 'bout those DP's? Bunt another one, Jair!
- Sunderland - Aug 2, 2011 at 12:53 AM
What pinch hit Gomes? He doesn't hit righties. Livo has only thrown 81 . Silly
- Joe Seamhead - Aug 2, 2011 at 12:53 AM
I, for one, am not ready to give up on Henry. He's got an awful lot of of raw talent. I'd like to see him have an off season, followed with getting to spring training on time. I sure can't blame Davey for yanking Livo early, what with Livan blowing the 8 run lead against the Cubs. I just that Coffey doesn't give 'em the runs, (as somebody else said it last week).GYFNG!
- Joe Seamhead - Aug 2, 2011 at 12:55 AM
I meant to say that I just hope that Coffey doesn't give 'em the runs.
- gonatsgo - Aug 2, 2011 at 12:56 AM
What ever happened to pitchers staying in the game longer, though? Another Davey Johnson, change- course- so- fast- your -head- spins statement. Livo not struggling, Coffey iffy. I hope this does not backfire.
- sjm308 - Aug 2, 2011 at 1:00 AM
Big difference with Davey and Riggs on Livan. He has pulled him after 81 pitches.I also did not like Gomes vs a righty but he doesn't have much on the bench right now. We will now collectively hold our breath for the next few outs. Will he go with Clippard and Storen for the 3rd game in a row even though its not a save situation?
- Slidell - Aug 2, 2011 at 1:04 AM
Davey was TOO slow with Livo against the Cubs. Personally, I would have let Livo hit in this situation.
- flynnie - Aug 2, 2011 at 1:05 AM
Laynce Nix! Where would we be without him? Morse comes home! Desi gets Werth home! Danny Uggs makes a throw that makes Zimm's worst look Olympically accurate! 5-1!! Hate that Davey's pinch hitting for Livo.
- gonatsgo - Aug 2, 2011 at 1:07 AM
Livo vs the Cubs was weeks ago and was a freak situation. Livo was dialed in and not showing any signs of trouble. Plus, he can hit.Too late now, thanks, Todd Coffey, once again.
- flynnie - Aug 2, 2011 at 1:10 AM
Uggs is making Zimm look like Greg Maddux.
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_For_Me - Aug 2, 2011 at 1:14 AM
Ultimate double-play trifecta:Zimm-to-Uggla-to-Adam Dunn.Think there's 100 errors in that trio?
- flynnie - Aug 2, 2011 at 1:16 AM
Yes, Sunshine, yes I do. Remember Uggs doing this in the All-Star game?

I really enjoy Morse on these post game interviews. He is the only one who seems to actually talk, rather than the same boring platitudes. That, and I have never seen anyone who is so happy just to be there.Great win.
- gonatsgo - Aug 2, 2011 at 2:06 AM
Wally – I agree that Morse always seems to appreciate where he is. Nice win for the team. But — listening to Davey Johnson – ugh.

Anyone hear whether the team renewed Bob C's contract? Today's the day.
- A DC Wonk - Aug 2, 2011 at 3:13 AM
Joe Seamhead said… I, for one, am not ready to give up on Henry. He's got an awful lot of of raw talent.Ditto on that. He's only 24. Nolan Ryan was a wild pitcher (and the Mets gave up on) at age 24, too.
- Scooter - Aug 2, 2011 at 3:17 AM
Sorry, flynnie, I got nothin' for ya. I don't root for announcers!sjm, I'm in 310 Weds afternoon, which should make it easy for me to toddle over to you. What row & seat are you in?By the way, when Livo was yanked, I actually thought, Okay, Coffey gives up a homer in the 7th, Burnett one in the 8th … probably Storen in the 9th … we still win by one! So y'all can blame me for some of that. Sorry if I caused panic. But I got us the win, and that's what matters.
- NatsLady - Aug 2, 2011 at 3:17 AM
Heard the end of the game on the radio. Guess Ankiel is ok with you folks now??? It's pretty close to a tie who is the best looking between him and Clipp.Charlie and Dave said Gomes pinch hit because Davey was looking for a big inning to save the bullpen–though leaving Livo in would have the same effect. You think Livo actually said something, like "I'm feeling the heat"? (That would be a first, a pitcher being honest…).I like a 5-1 lead, the bullpen doesn't have to be perfect. gonatsgo — what did Morse say? What did Davey say?
- Anonymous - Aug 2, 2011 at 3:21 AM
One can see why the thought of trading Storen was no longer completely inconceivable: Ryan Mattheus.
- NatsLady - Aug 2, 2011 at 3:24 AM
I said a dozen times on here Mattheus could close.
- flynnie - Aug 2, 2011 at 3:30 AM
Hey, NatsLady – the interviews with Morse and Davey are up on the MASN web site. Davey said that Ankiel needed to play every day, and, though he likes Roger very much, "Rick's making it hard to play anyone else in center." He said tonight's performance was "Vintage Livo," who did not want to come out, but Davey told him, "I can't leave you in. We've got to try to score another run" with the man on second. For a mathemetician, pinch hitting Gomes for Livo was a no-brainer. He said Livo wasn't trying to pitch around hitters, he was going at 'em. Although Jurrjens is a good pitcher, "Ankiel was seeing him pretty good." He said that he needed to play "the other side of the bullpen. If we're going to win, we need both sides of the 'pen to do their job." Morse was genuine and happy. When Ray Knight apologized to him about taking the attention off of him and asking him about Werth, Michael said, "Take it away! Take it away!" with a big smile.
- NatsLady - Aug 2, 2011 at 3:35 AM
Thanks, flynnie.
- flynnie - Aug 2, 2011 at 3:36 AM
More Davey: "Desmond and Espinosa are prime examples. They have a tremendous upsides for me. Espi's had some hard luck lately. He's hitting it hard at people. I ought to give him some days off, but I just like watching him play." Davey acknowledges using Storen a lot, but that's what Storen wants and Davey wants to see how far Storen can go "before he cries uncle."
- flynnie - Aug 2, 2011 at 3:38 AM
MASN is re-playing the game now. I recommend watching it. I have a good feeling about this one.
- NatsLady - Aug 2, 2011 at 3:44 AM
Am watching Colorado and the Phils right now. Tie game. Wanna see what we are going to face later in the week.
- Scooter - Aug 2, 2011 at 3:49 AM
NatsLady, you are the bee's knees. Boning up on the opposition.Make sure you get our fielders positioned right.
- NatsLady - Aug 2, 2011 at 3:51 AM
Not looking good for the Rockies. They were leading 3-1 and Street blew the save. Flyin' Hawaiian just hit a home run in the top of the 10th.

I was testing out some different painting styles and brushes here. The subject matter was sort of arbitrary, but I had thought of doing a Noid piece in the past. I did skimp on the background, if you didn't notice. I wanted to primarily focus on the color blending and texture rather than overall cleanliness. Hope you like it!

It appears something is wrong with your model number - I find a BDP-BX110 and a BDP-S1100, but no bd-110.
If one of those is right, try googling this type of phrase, with the correct model number - Sony bd-110 audio output ports
and you will find both the owners manual and operators instruction manual online. They say these units are primarily made for computer, not home theater connection, as they come with USB and HDMI ports for primary output, to connect to a computer or laptop device.
It appears there is a coax connection on the back that says DIGITAL OUT, that would be your audio connection to the home theater, but your home theater needs to be digital ready in one of the formats this player passes the data in. If computer formatted home theater system, then use the USB or HDMI connection (HDMI passes better quality).
if your home theater is set up for analog (red and black paired RCA jacks), then you are going to need a digital to analog converter, which is way beyond this forum because there are too many data formats and device connector types and sizes. Google for a convertor for your model device, or maybe Sony has one at their online store.

Joke of the day
Every man needs a go-to joke.
American Geography One morning in elementary school, the students were learning about geography. The teacher wanted to show the students where certain cities and states were, so she asked the class: "Does anyone know where Pittsburgh is?" Billy raised his hand and said: "Yeah, Pennsylvania!" "Very good, Billy!" the teacher replied. "Now can anyone tell me were Detroit is?" Suzy raised her hand and said: "That's in Michigan!" "Very good," the teacher said. Trying to confuse the children, she now asked: "Where's Kansas City?" Tommy raised his hand and said: "Oh, oh pick me! I know!" "Okay, Tommy," the teacher said, "where is Kansas City?" "Last place."
The Butler Did It A wealthy couple prepared to go out for the evening. The woman of the house gave their butler, Jervis, the night off. She said they would return home very late, and she hoped he would enjoy his evening. Unfortunately, the wife wasn't having a good time at the party, so she came home early, alone. Her husband stayed on, socializing with important clients. As the woman walked into her house, she found Jervis by himself in the dining room. She called him to follow her, and led him into the master bedroom. She turned to him and said, in the voice she knew he must obey: "Jervis, I want you to take off my dress." This he did, hanging it carefully over a chair. "Jervis," she continued, "now take off my stockings and garter belt." Again, Jervis silently obeyed: "Now, Jervis, I want you to remove my bra and panties." Eyes downcast, Jervis obeyed. Both were breathing heavily, the tension mounting between them. She looked sternly at him and said: "Jervis, if I ever catch you wearing my stuff again, you're fired!"
Fueled Up A couple of drinking buddies, who are airplane mechanics, are in the hangar at Logan Airport in Boston. It's fogged in and they have nothing to do. One of them says to the other: "Man, do you have anything to drink?" The other one says: "Nah, but I hear you can drink jet fuel, and that it will kinda give you a buzz." So they drink it, get smashed and have a great time, like only drinking buddies can do. The following morning, one of them gets up and is surprised he feels good. In fact, he feels great -- NO hangover! The phone rings, it's his buddy. The buddy says: "Hey, how do you feel?" "I feel great!" he says. "I feel great too!" his friend says. "You don't have a hangover?" "No," he replies: "that jet fuel is great stuff -- no hangover -- we ought to do this more often." "Yeah, we could, but there's just one thing..." "What's that?" he asks. "Did you fart yet?" "No," his friend replies. "Well, DON'T, 'cause I just did and now I'm in Phoenix!"
Jury Duty A man who was chosen for jury duty really wanted to be dismissed from serving. He tried every excuse he could think of but none of them worked. On the day of the trial, he decided to give it one more shot. As the trial was about to begin, he asked if he could approach the bench. "Your Honor," he said, "I must be excused from this trial because I am prejudiced against the defendant. I took one look at the man in the blue suit with those beady eyes and that dishonest face and I said 'He's a crook! He's guilty!' So, your Honor, I cannot possibly stay on this jury!" With a tired annoyance the judge replied: "Get back in the jury box, you fool. That man is the defendant's lawyer."
Mr. Bear and Mr. Rabbit Mr. Bear and Mr. Rabbit didn't like each other very much. One day, while walking through the woods, and they came across a golden frog. They were amazed when the frog talked to them. The golden frog admitted that he didn't often meet anyone, but, when he did, he always gave them six wishes. He told them that they could have three wishes each. Mr. Bear immediately wished that all the other bears in the forest were females. The frog granted his wish. Mr. Rabbit, after thinking for a while, wished for a crash helmet. One appeared immediately, and he placed it on his head. Mr. Bear was amazed at Mr. Rabbit's wish, but carried on with his second wish. He wished that all the bears in the neighboring forests were females as well, and the frog granted his wish. Mr. Rabbit then wished for a motorcycle. It appeared before him, and he climbed on board and started revving the engine. Mr. Bear could not believe it and complained that Mr. Rabbit had wasted two wishes that he could have had for himself. Shaking his head, Mr. Bear made his final wish that all the other bears in the world were females as well, leaving him as the only male bear in the world. The frog replied that it had been done, and they both turned to Mr. Rabbit for his last wish. Mr. Rabbit revved the engine, thought for a second, then said: "I wish that Mr. Bear was gay!" and rode off as fast as he could!
Elephants Never Forget In 1986, Peter Davies was on holiday in Kenya after graduating from Northwestern University. On a hike through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing with one leg raised in the air. The elephant seemed distressed, so Peter approached it very carefully. He got down on one knee, inspected the elephant's foot, and found a large piece of wood deeply embedded in it. As carefully and as gently as he could, Peter worked the wood out with his knife, after which the elephant gingerly put down its foot. The elephant turned to face the man, and with a rather curious look on its face, stared at him for several tense moments. Peter stood frozen, thinking of nothing else but being trampled. Eventually the elephant trumpeted loudly, turned, and walked away. Peter never forgot that elephant or the events of that day. Twenty years later, Peter was walking through the Chicago Zoo with his teenage son. As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the creatures turned and walked over to near where Peter and his son Cameron were standing. The large bull elephant stared at Peter, lifted its front foot off the ground, then put it down. The elephant did that several times then trumpeted loudly, all the while staring at the man. Remembering the encounter in 1986, Peter could not help wondering if this was the same elephant. Peter summoned up his courage, climbed over the railing, and made his way into the enclosure. He walked right up to the elephant and stared back in wonder. The elephant trumpeted again, wrapped its trunk around one of Peter legs and slammed him against the railing, killing him instantly. Probably wasn't the same f*cking elephant.
Wallpaper A blonde decided to redecorate her bedroom. She wasn't sure how many rolls of wallpaper she would need, but she knew that her blonde friend from next door had recently done the same job and the two rooms were identical in size. "Buffy," she said, "how many rolls of wallpaper did you buy for your bedroom?" "Ten," said Buffy. So the blonde bought the 10 rolls of paper and did the job, but she had two rolls leftover. "Buffy," she said, "I bought 10 rolls of wallpaper for the bedroom, but I've got two leftover!" "Yes," said Buffy: "So did I!"

I had an emergency appendectomy two weeks ago yesterday, which was startling (and a bit depressing) for me, but my recovery has gone well, and I was able to walk to the park with the kids today to enjoy the beautiful weather. Thanks be to God!
So glad your recovery is progressing, MR. Those bumps in the road can be such a pain sometimes but even they have their purpose. Sending up a prayer for you and your continued wellness.
Yes, great news MR! I'm sure it must have been scary to need emergency surgery, but I'm so glad that your recovery is going well.
My good news, which has been mentioned here many times before, is my gratitude for the sacrament of Reconciliation. I had a really tough couple of weeks, including a vacation that I needed a vacation from. I am really grateful for my access to mercy in this sacrament, which has helped a lot in the healing process.
Thank you Blessed Virgin Mary for prayers answered. I want in this prayer to Thank you for your Mercy toward me and mine. I want in this Prayer to Thank you for all things and confirm once again that I never want to be separated from you. Thank you for your Mercy toward me and mine. Prayer To The Blessed Virgin Blessed Mother of God, Immaculate Virgin, Assist me in my necessity. Help me and show me, Holy Mary Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth. I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to succor me in this necessity. There are none that can withstand your power. Show me herein you who are my mother. Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to their. (Repeat three times). Holy Mother, I place this cause in your hands (Three Times). Holy spirit, You who solve all problems, light all roads so that I can attain my goals, you who gave me the divine gift to forgive and forget all evil against me, in all instances in my life, you are with me. I want in this Prayer to Thank you for all things and confirm once again that I never want to be separated from you. Thank you for your Mercy toward me and mine. Say this Prayer three consecutive days, after three days, the request will be granted. This Prayer must be published after the favor is granted.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful:
By Kurt from USA on 2008-06-23 22:53:35 Things I liked:Only trap that I know of that can stop BB's and Pellets. The double curtain flaps and the steel backing are great. Great value for the ability to stop and trap pellets and BB's. Just Can't shoot pointed pellets. I have seen many traps that only stop pellets, and they cost well over the asking price for this awsum trap.Things I would have changed:I would like it if Crosman would throw in 5-10 extra cardboard target holders. Once you blast away the thick cardboard front, you need to cut out a new one from cardboard boxes around your house. The plastic tabs that hold the cardboard facing are hard to push in even when making a pre punture hole. Most of all the frame around the front of the trap should NOT be Plastic. If you misplace a shot or two and shatter the frame that holds the double stops , they will no longer stay in thier proper place/position. The frame should be made of thin steel. What others should know:This is a fantastic trap. It can and will stop BB's and Pellets even from high velocity pistols and rifles. Just know that you will need to cut out and replace the cardboard target holder/ trap face. Try very hard not to hit and shatter the frame that holds the traps. I did, but I stuffed old pants& shirts where the curtains were supposed to hang and it works great because I still have the steel back to keep the rounds in the trap. |

By John from USA on 2012-02-11 09:45:05 Things I liked:It was cheap.Things I would have changed:Get rid of the buttons that hold the cardboard. Material the curtains are made from. What others should know:Once again, this is not a trap to use with high-velocity rifles. I shot through all 3 curtains with the first shot. I wouldn't use anything more powerful than a Red Ryder with this one. |
