The sun is out right now, but it was pouring earlier, and it may rain again tonight.
MIAMI — This is the Marlins' final season at Sun Life Stadium, which has had about 13 different names over the years. And let me tell you, they can't move out of this place soon enough. Forget about the lack of intimacy inside an 80,000-seat football stadium, though that's a major problem itself. The bigger issue is the lack of a roof, which in this town really is necessary.
Case in point: It was absolutely pouring when I arrived here a little while ago, with a ferocious wind that forced the grounds crew to hold down the tarp with about nine tractors. The amazing thing is, this wasn't anything new around here. Hardly a game day goes by without some sort of delay or squeegeeing of the field. Fortunately, the new park (which is being built on the site of the old Orange Bowl) has a retractable roof.
As for tonight's game, the first in a three-game series with the Marlins, the Nationals' lineup will have its first new look of the young season. Ian Desmond and Danny Espinosa are on the bench, with Jerry Hairston and Alex Cora taking over middle infield duties. Before you get all worked up about Jim Riggleman benching the two young guys (especially Desmond, who is 0-for-13), this was planned all along. The manager has wanted to make sure both Hairston and Cora get some at-bats during the season's first week. Desmond and Espinosa should be back in the lineup tomorrow.
Jason Marquis faces Anibal Sanchez, each right-hander making his 2011 debut. Plenty of updates (hopefully none of them weather-related) to come, so check back throughout the evening…

Ok, riddle me this. If you're planning on giving our two starting middle infielders a day off and getting the bench guys some work… WHY would you plan to take two starters out on the same day??
- JayB - Apr 5, 2011 at 7:48 PM
Riggs is a loser…what value has this constant playing of bench guys ever given this team….Willie Harris and Adam Kennedy…..He manages like this is rec ball…..Stupid and it is going to cost him his job by July.

- Tcostant - Apr 5, 2011 at 7:53 PM
I agree with Stranded_in_Philly, it fine to give the starting IF a day off, but why not over a couple of days. This wiould have been a great opportunity to give Desmond the day off and let Espinosa lead off for the day.
- JayB - Apr 5, 2011 at 7:57 PM
and play SS….oh but then Cora would not be sharp for the next time he is needed…..like every 4th day…you watch…Riggs is going to play these guys at the expense of wins and experience for the youth….it is just in his DNA. Oh well this team is still going to win 82 games….but most of them with a new manager….Bo Porter is my choice.

I rode the BUS up there from downtown Miami once. Had I known it was practically in Ft. Lauderdale, and had I taken five minutes to note the bus route went straight through Liberty City, I'd have skipped the totally forgettable baseball. You're right – it's an awful stadium.I asked a cabbie how much Coral Gables was after two innings of ball. He said $50, I said I'd pay $75, and left that stadium in the rear view.
- Rabbit - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:05 PM
I have to agree about Riggleman. He seems to manage with blinders on. As far as Strike Three Desmond is concerned, I didn't care for him last year so I guess I really don't mind him on the bench. Espinosa will do fine.
- bgib - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:06 PM
It was planned all along? So what? That makes it better? It's like Little League and everybody plays so they can get their participation trophies at the end of the season. Sheesh.
- Anonymous - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:08 PM
Since Interim Jim is so big on keeping his bench guys fresh, how come he never lets Bench Coach John McLaren manage the game in order to keep him fresh, so he'll be ready to step in whenever Interim Jim gets ejected or fired?
- Steve M. - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:10 PM
They don't need a day off. They had a freebie yesterday.
- Sam - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:12 PM
I don't mind giving the infielders a day off either. What is mind-blowing is that he would do it on the day of the start of pitcher who gives up the most balls in play and has an extremely high ground ball rate. I think it's safe to say that Desmond and Espinosa are better defensively than Hairston and Cora. I would much rather give these guys a day off with a guy like Zimmermann pitching because he actually strikes guys out. Or, split up their days off so you get one of Desmond or Espinosa at short stop on both days.
- cadeck13 - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:18 PM
I really hate to complain being it's so early in the season, but sheesh!, don't the Yankees, Phillies, Giants, etc. (you know the teams that win) put the same guys out there game after game?
- sjm308 - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:18 PM
Really would have liked to have Espinosa play short for this game but I am not a Riggs hater like several on here. Its a long season and this won't be the last time the kids get rest. Not sure but my bet is that whoever the new manager is (whenever that is) JayB will be railing against something he does within a week. I mean who knows more baseball? He is a fan though and I appreciate all the comments on here.That is what makes it a great game, people can give various opinions on exactly the same play or move during a game. Go Nats! On a totally different not that probably no one cares about, the RCR program is up and running, our group has allocated points and while I have not redeemed anything yet, it looks like it will be fairly easy.
- NatsJack in Florida - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:20 PM
Like I see Charlie Manuel set down Rollins AND Utley (when healthy) in tandem ALL the time. Sheesh! Riggs is beginning to get to me and I've promoted a long leash for the guy. That leash is getting pretty short.And as for Sun Life Stadium (better known as the "ROB" in the day). I HATE (with a CAPITAL HATE) the place.
- Harper_ROY_2012 - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:25 PM
If this was a day game after a night game I could understand giving Desmond and Espinosa the day off but coming off an off day, PLEASE! This "keeping guys fresh" mantra that Riggleman is preaching doesn't make sense, when do you see backups playing for contending clubs, answer: almost NEVER unless there is an injury involved! I cannot wait to see what happens when he gives the OF a day off! RF: Nix, CF: Hairston, LF: Stairs!?????
- Anonymous - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:26 PM
I know people don't like to hear about Rigg's philosophy of keeping his bench players fresh with somewhat regular PT but he's responsible for the whole team over a 162 game schedule. I guy can't sit for a week and be expected to perform in the 9th inning with the winning run on 2nd.Having said that I am also baffled as to why you would sit both middle infielders with a ground ball pitcher like Marguis starting.
- Scooter - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:31 PM
I think Riggleman heard the complaints about the bench, so he decided to upgrade it by putting Despinosa there.
- Anonymous - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:32 PM
Like most stupid moves, this one will probably result in a win. Which will make Riggs think that it will work all the time. Which will result in some horrific choices in the future a la 2010.
- DFL - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:49 PM
Desmond and Espinosa are young men who just had an off-day. It is ridiculous to give them a day off. Give them days off on an occasional 98 degree day, not now. It's not as if they had the constitution of Dimitri Young or Rusty Staub.
- phil dunn - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:51 PM
Look what has happened to the Orioles since they hired a real manager. Beginning when Buck Showalter took over about mid-season last year, the team has done a total reversal. Prior to that, the Os manager caliber was about the level of Manny Acta and Riggleman. You know what I mean, not real managers but they work on the cheap and are easy to manipulate because they don't have any employment options. Can you imagine what might happen to the Nats if they hired a real manager?
- N. Cognito - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:57 PM
Who says it's a day off and not an opportunity to get Hairston and Cora some playing time. The baseball season is a marathon and you do want them to get more than 4 at bats a week.I don't understand Desmond and Espinosa out at the same time, but maybe Riggs wants to get the substituting over with.If Desmond (has he even had a good at bat this season?) and Espinosa should be playing almost every day but if they end up sitting regularly, then there will be a problem. Let's wait and see how it plays out.
- masnstinks - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:58 PM
Has Matt Stairs actually had any at- bats yet? Maybe one? I really hate having him on our team – he is a waste of space – oh, wait – since he is a "high character" guy and a "true Professional" he gets paid to sit there and be a good guy. Well – at least he won't be a "defensive Replacement" – having used my quota of quotation marks for today, I am done.
- Anonymous - Apr 5, 2011 at 8:59 PM
The manager has wanted to make sure both Hairston and Cora get some at-bats during the season's first week.Why Mark? They are veterans who are supposed to "know their role"? Right? The YOUNG PLAYERS NEED THE REPS. You might as well start Riggleman in right field he isn't that much older than Stairs? It took only 3 games and already we find ourselves in a tropic island mess here on Giggleman's Isle?
- Ernie - Apr 5, 2011 at 9:20 PM
From MLB Trade Rumors: "Rizzo defended his veteran bench acquisitions, explaining that a team can't have young players at every position, and the veteran mentors won't take at-bats away from prospects."Ummm…did he not see tonight's lineup card?
- Mikey Morse Club Member # 1 - Apr 5, 2011 at 9:32 PM
I agree with much of what has been said. Sam earlier nailed it for me though. Mind boggling to sit both these guys when Marquis is pitching.Maybe he was planning on sitting Desmond, but decided Espinosa needed to be taught a lesson for the errors in the last game.Just win 2 out of 3 against the back end of the Marlins rotation and I'll be happy.
- DFL - Apr 5, 2011 at 9:35 PM
Barring injuries, Desmond and Espinosa should each start 150 games this year. They are young men and need no coddling. Same goes for Zimmerman, Werth and, if they are hitting, Morse and LaRoche.
- Wally - Apr 5, 2011 at 9:38 PM
Trying not to get too excited at Game 4, but there really isn't any answer to Sam's point, is there? It would seem very straightforward that you want the guys you think of as your best fielders out there for Jason. At least one of them.Well, Stanton isn't playing. That's something.
- Anonymous - Apr 5, 2011 at 9:45 PM
I know that this is a radical idea, but if neither Espinosa nor Desmond succeed at leadoff, what about hitting Werth there? It's basically the same rationale for sticking him in the 2-hole, he has the best OBP of anybody on the team. He has power, yeah, but he could end up being an Alfonso-Soriano-before-he-sucked leadoff type.

No Doc, he'd be awful. He'd play the washed up vets rounding out the roster to keep them fresh in exchange for at bats of the real studs in the organization.

Even without Mike Stanton, I see Marlins sweeping this series. Not trying to be pessimistic but that second SO of Werth was disgusting. FS
- Mr. NATural - Apr 5, 2011 at 11:55 PM
It is extremely important the Nationals win this game. THIS game.(Cue the managers and players and MASN guys saying, "Well, it's a long season, one game doesn't really matter that much blah blah blah.")Over the last several months, we were all told this was a different, better team. More athletic, better defensively, no more crybabies or felons, better baserunners and pitchers and proven veterans with rings, a better bench. We were told over and over "this team was going to surprise a lot of people."Then we lose 2 of 3, at HOME, in the opening series versus Atlanta. The last game being a debacle, as pathetic as anything the Nats have done since 2005. The image is setting in that it's the same old Nationals. Say we lose 2 of 3 in Florida, then 2 of 3 in New York. Then we come home on April 12th to face the Phillies. It could get very ugly very fast.It is amazing listening to our radio guys, and the Florida radio guys (on XM), and to read Mark's post above–all summarizing how completely the Marlins have spanked us collectively, and how their pitchers have burned our hitters individually.If you are going to change from a loser to a winner there has to be a day when things change. Today has got to be that day. I look at my TV, see 1000 people in the stands in Miami, and I conclude that if we cannot beat the Florida MARLINS the majority of the time, then all the off-season and spring training talk was BS, pure hype, from a team that has gotten very, very good at rationalizing losses.Make the change TODAY.
- Anonymous8 - Apr 6, 2011 at 12:15 AM
Nothing like plate discipline in the top of the 4th. Cora and Hairston hacking with Hairston popping up the 1st pitch. At least Marquis worked him for 5 pitches!
- Anonymous8 - Apr 6, 2011 at 12:53 AM
Top of the 6th after a really nice Marquis hit and into the bullpen and Hairston again does nothing on the 2nd pitch.I would have pinch hit for him with Espinosa, but that's just me so Espi could hit from the left side w/ Werth on deck….
- JaneB - Apr 6, 2011 at 1:02 AM
Well, I am loving this new color guy. And readimg the live blog of the game during the game. And watching Jason pitch. Wish we had Espy and Desi in, so we could see them with Espy in the one hole and Ramos catching. And, may I say, hitting. He's gonna make it hard for them to play Pudge every other day.
- Smatt1001 - Apr 6, 2011 at 1:09 AM
And Zimm walks again… 1HR and the marlins got very afraid.
- Smatt1001 - Apr 6, 2011 at 1:22 AM
And nothing doing…3 walks and then a ground out
- BallstonNat - Apr 6, 2011 at 1:34 AM
Is it that our starters can't get through the 7th? Or that our manager won't let our starters get through the 7th?

Wouldn't it have been a good time to use Stairs for Cora right there? Then have Desi take his spot in the field?

Same old Nats–dumb base running. There goes the ball game.
- Doc - Apr 6, 2011 at 1:44 AM
Right Uncle Jimmy double switch out Morse, leaving a banjo hitter in LF, with your best power hitter grabbing some pine in a tie game—just really genius managing skills here!Rizzo ought to double switch Riggleman with the Hagerstown bus driver!
- Mr. NATural - Apr 6, 2011 at 1:44 AM
Yes, it looks like we are a much better baserunning team than last year.

- FS - Apr 6, 2011 at 2:39 AM
I have never liked intentional walks. I realize they are part of the game but I would like pitchers (especially Nationals pitchers) to take the challenge and face the guy, instead of walking him. Hanley is a great hitter, but that does not mean we shy away from him. It worked earlier in the game but that does not mean it will work now. So there we have it bases loaded and no outs.FS
- Anonymous - Apr 6, 2011 at 2:50 AM
Well I'm glad Zimmerman stepped up and spoke out after Sunday's game. That really made a difference.Same old Nats.
- FS - Apr 6, 2011 at 2:53 AM
OMG My heart almost stopped beating when Burnett got two outs. I guess it was too much to wish for, to come out unscathed after loading the bases. I am not sure if losing one-run games mean anything to us. but it is tiring to see the mistakes again and again.Having Storen on my fantasy team is really hurting me, should have gone with Kimbrel.
- Anonymous - Apr 6, 2011 at 2:55 AM
Two strikeouts and a game losing error. Welcome to DC sports, Jayson Werth. At least the check will clear. At least I'm close enough to NYC to keep up with Zimmerman when he bails for the Yankees out of frustration in 2013.
- Anonymous - Apr 6, 2011 at 2:55 AM
Time now for the Nationals' paint-by-numbers interviews. Pick one from columns A, B, and C.A."The season is still young.""We can take a lot of positives from this game.""Just one play goes the other way and we win the ballgame."B."It's early.""It's a long season, a long grind. We can't get upset about one game.""We got a quality start from {insert pitcher name} and we have got to be encouraged there."C."Their {insert opposing team's name} pitching was lights out tonight.""Player {insert name} got a tough hop/lost it in the lights/didn't hear the second baseman call him off…it wasn't really his fault.""{Insert Nats' pitcher's name} didn't get a couple of calls he mighta got."
- Anonymous - Apr 6, 2011 at 3:09 AM
The big question for tonight's Nats fan is what do you think the Nat's record with be on May 1st? That bad huh? Write to Rizzo ask him to fire Riggleman … he's going to have to do it May 1st anyway.

Good point, Anonymous 10:55. If you listen to the post-game talking heads on TV, you'd think the Nats WON the game! The whole team showed a lot of promise and the score was just an afterthought! I was laughing so hard I almost fell over. SSDD, except that it's no longer 2010, it's 2011!!!!
- Manassas Nats Fan - Apr 6, 2011 at 3:31 AM
Lots of new characters doing the same crap as last year.Error allows winning base runner on base. 12 guys left on base.base running mistake is a killer.Third base coach who either made the sign to late or he was on bad position.Still think Eckstein has to go clutch hitting is not a priority with his team. Either he goes or they go.
- Anonymous - Apr 6, 2011 at 10:57 AM
This season turned twice tonight, on Porter waving home Hairston, then putting on the breaks and the runner being thrown out, and then Werth dropping a pop-up…They will not recover.The Nationals remind me of the New York Knights. Until the Hobb boys get here (Strasburg and Harper), they're toast…UNTERP

What should pool's water level be over winter?
When closing your pool for the season there are certain steps to take to ensure your pool with stay safe over the winter months and be ready to use again next summer.
One step to take when closing your pool is to ensure it has a proper water level. The proper water level depends on your pool and equipment.
If you have tile in your pool at the water level then you will need to drain the water so it is below the tile. This will prevent the tile from cracking when the surface water freezes.
If you do not blow out the pipes or use a gizzmo before closing down the pool then you will need to drain the water past the skimmer.
In most cases you will not need to drain your pool at all. In fact, it is said to be better for your pool cover to keep the water level high. The lower the water level, the more stress is put on the pool cover.

Jake put his head in his hands and started to moan a bit. �Not again,� he said. �Not this again. It�s every two weeks!�
We had just finished our last mountain bike ride at Nine Mile County Forest Recreation Area, and were driving home. I had merely mentioned that I had been thinking about my training goals and had come up with some new ideas.
�It�s not that complicated!� he said. �Ride, run and do some pushups and situps.�
I was very hurt by his reaction, so I didn�t tell him about how my scheme to become a better athlete is to severely limit the amount of television that I watch. That�s his loss, and I expect I�ll be kicking his butt next cycling season and listening to him whine about how he needs a new bike.
I�m not sure I can really blame TV on the fact that I�m 20 pounds overweight and a middle-of-the-pack runner. But I think it�s a certainty that TV has been an anchor for any athletic potential I ever had. Here�s why.
Recent studies are showing that an athlete�s strength of mind is almost as important as her strength of legs when it comes to endurance events. The idea is that the brain tells you to slow down long before your body really needs to slow down, and you have to override those preliminary thoughts. That takes sustained, concentrated willpower, and I believe TV has rusted through any that I ever had.
In Runner�s World magazine, one of my favorite running writers, Alex Hutchinson, talked about how he was training his brain for that workload by concentrating for an hour on a simple, purposefully mind-numbing video game before doing a long run. That was to simulate the mental exertion he would need to complete a marathon. It sounded just awful.
My idea is instead of playing some tortuous video game designed, maybe it would be just as beneficial to embrace brain-bolstering activity by doing stuff known to help powers of concentration, such as learning to play an instrument or meditating.
And it couldn�t hurt, could it, to give up TV, the one thing we all know sucks the power from brains? I read once that the brain shows less activity when a person watches a TV than when sleeping. If that�s true, one�s brain could be strengthened by taking a nap instead of watching �Real Housewives.�
So that�s what I�ve been doing � turning off the television, and falling asleep while thinking about going to practice the guitar. It�s a start.

Despite another round of pleas from Mammoth Mountain and the Town of Mammoth Lakes Tuesday for air flight subsidies, county supervisors once again said, ŌĆ£Not so fast.ŌĆØ
For the second time in about as many months, Town and Mountain officials came to the county for help, asking for between $215,000 and $289,000 a year to help bridge a gap in subsidizing year around air service (winter air service subsidies are already covered by the Mountain.)
The Town and Mountain would pay the same amount, respectively, making the total subsidy, estimated Tuesday at between $650,000 and $900,000, shared equally by the three entities.
But county supervisors, facing what they call the tightest and most uncertain financial climate in decades, were simply not ready to commit at this time, even as they stated that they support year-round air service. (In fact, they already are committed to a $45,000-a-year subsidy, as agreed to last year.)
But even as they said no right now, the supervisors did ask the countyŌĆÖs tourism and economic development departments to do in-depth analysis of the pros and cons of supporting air service. This cost/ benefit analysis would then give them the information they need to decide how much to spend, relative to all their other financial obligations, they said.
Yes, but...
ŌĆ£Some kind of participation in this from the county is a good thing,ŌĆØ said Supervisor Byng Hunt, who had invited Mammoth Mountain Marketing Director Howard Pickett and Visit Mammoth Director John Urdi to Bridgeport Tuesday to detail why they want the county involved.
ŌĆ£But, IŌĆÖm not sure of the equity issue. I do believe we need to fund (one of) the economic engines driving our economy, even more in a recession, but IŌĆśm not sure how far.ŌĆØ
(Note: The tourism commission said the county should support the service but left the amount of support up to the supervisors.)
HuntŌĆÖs thoughts, in general, were more or less echoed by all the supervisors.
ŌĆ£IŌĆÖm all for this and you are doing a good job, but I think this really helps Mammoth Lakes (not the rest of the county) and I think it would be irresponsible for me to support this ... I donŌĆÖt think weŌĆÖre in the financial shape to do so,ŌĆØ said North County Supervisor Tim Hansen.
ŌĆ£IŌĆÖd like to see what our $45,000 is getting,ŌĆØ said Supervisor Larry Johnston.
Airline performance ŌĆō flights dropped or flights turned around before landing ŌĆō also were a worry of the supervisors, who noted they are getting reports of such problems.
Others noted that the state Legislature had officially reached an impasse with Governor Jerry Brown this week, making the future of the countyŌĆÖs many state-mandated and state -funded programs even more precarious ŌĆō and leaving the supervisors even more wary of committing to a subsidy at this time.
Now what?
To summarize, the county doesnŌĆÖt appear much more inclined to get down to the specifics of subsidy numbers than they were back in early winter, when the Mountain and Town first asked for the county to share the subsidy burden equally with them when Bauer was the only supervisor who wholeheartedly supported the request then. She was absent Tuesday.
Then, as now, the supervisors said the stateŌĆÖs precarious financial situation leaves them facing too many unknowns to commit.
Moreover, the supervisors said they still need more direct proof about how much year-round air service actually benefits the county communities outside Mammoth.
Still, even Urdi and PickettŌĆÖs claims that the county would receive $5.7 million just this summer in return for subsidizing summer flights is not enough for the county.
All is not lost
That said, all was not lost Tuesday, in regards to the county participating more fully in summer subsidies.
For the first time, the county ordered its staff to begin a detailed look at the option, with strong collaboration between the county tourism commission and the economic development department.
A small subcommittee, including Town, Mountain and county representatives is forming as well.
And, with an upcoming June special election that could determine the amount of money the state gives or takes away from the county, it could be that in a few months, the county will be clearer about what it can and cannot do to subsidize the flights, finally giving Mammoth Mountain and the Town an answer.

Finds all directories containing more than 99MB of files, and prints them in human readable format. The directories sizes do not include their subdirectories, so it is very useful for finding any single directory with a lot of large files.
This command will display all lines between 2 patterns: word-a and word-b
useful for grepping command outputs from file
Finds the string in every file in an entire directory and all its subdirectories and replaces it with a new string. Especially useful when changing a machine's IP address or hostname - run it on /etc.
Probably only works with GNU du and modern perls.
The Linux /dev/full file simulates a "disk full" condition, and can be used to verify how a program handles this situation.
In particular, several programming language implementations do not print error diagnostics (nor exit with error status) when I/O errors like this occur, unless the programmer has taken additional steps. That is, simple code in these languages does not fail safely. In addition to Perl, C, C++, Tcl, and Lua (for some functions) also appear not to fail safely.
MIME::Base64 is a part of Perl5 distribution. You can also use decode_base64 for oposite result.
Insert a comma where necessary when counting large numbers. I needed to separate huge amounts of packets and after 12+ hours of looking in a terminal, I wanted it in readable form.
Adds a newline to the end of all cpp files in the directory to avoid warnings from gcc compiler.
That "^M" is Ctrl-M, which is a carriage return, and is not needed in Unix file systems.
Where ^V is actually Ctrl-V and ^M is actually Ctrl-M (you must type these yourself, don't just copy and paste this command). ^V will not be displayed on your screen.

This removes the type prefix used in Hungarian notation (v. bad) for PHP variables. Eg. variables of the form $intDays, $fltPrice, $arrItems, $objLogger convert to $days, $price, $Items, $logger.
Quick command to check if Perl library is installed on your server.
joins multiple lines to create single line with comma separated values. for example if we have an email addresses one per line (copy&paste from spreadsheet) it will oputput one line with comman separated addresses to put it to email client.

Purified drinking water is usually available year-round at Bright Angel and Indian Garden Campgrounds and at Bright Angel and South Kaibab trailheads.
Grand Canyon's water supply comes from Roaring Springs, a natural spring located approximately 3,500 feet below the North Rim. Water is delivered via an aging pipeline that suffers multiple breaks a year. When the pipeline breaks, water stops flowing to the North and South Rims and sites along the way. Although large storage tanks provide ample water to rim locations, while the pipeline is being repaired water may or may not be available below the rim in the cross-canyon Corridor. Please remember, when hiking below the rim a method to treat water must always be part of your hiking gear.
The list below shows if water has been turned on or off for the season (if the pipeline is undergoing repairs water may be off temporarily)
- North Kaibab Trailhead: water turned OFF
- Supai Tunnel: water turned OFF
- Roaring Springs Day Use Area: water turned OFF
- Pumphouse Rest Area: ON year-round
- Cottonwood Campground: water turned OFF
- Bright Angel Campground: ON year-round
- Plateau Point: water turned OFF
- Indian Garden: ON year-round
- Bright Angel Trail, Three-Mile Resthouse: water turned OFF
- Bright Angel Trail, Mile-and-a-Half Resthouse: water turned OFF
- Bright Angel Trailhead: ON year-round
- South Kaibab Trailhead: ON year-round
Seasonal water stations are usually turned off for the winter sometime between Oct 10th and 30th dependent on location and associated temperatures.
Water available (year-round) on the South Rim at the Backcountry Information Center in the lobby. Water available (year-round) on the North Rim outside the Backcountry Information Center. Additional water bottle filling stations can be found on the Go "Green" and Refill Your Water Bottles web page.
Plan Ahead and Prepare: A backup method to treat water, should the pipeline break, must always be included as part of your hiking gear. Backcountry hikers should always carry extra water.

hello people
ok i dont know if i am the most uncoordinated person in the world but i really struggle when it comes to flairing with a bottle and a mixing tin, so i tend not to do it, but if any1 knows of any simple moves to help me out or if there is a speacial tin i should be using could you please let me know... i got the working flair series and it helped me out loads with the standard stuff, and i am trying to expand and develope moves all the time... i'm not a big fan of the over showy 3/4 bottle juggling but i really want to be able to do bottle and tin, i just think it looks really cool and would be a nice base to move on to the multiple bottle juggling. also if any1 could give me advice on a video that really concentrates on this could you please let me know, maybe one of the compitition series? i dont have the money to by them all yet and if i did i would buy them. but sadly i am forced to beg and plead for some1's help.

Post subject: Bottle and tin
Well, I am by no means the best person to be teaching anyone, but I recently started doing bottle and tin moves. I find the easiest is to hold the tin in your left hand and from under your left arm (with the bottle in your right hand) flip the bottle sideways 1 1/2 times to land spout down in the tin. Gidwick, If you have a flair bottle, I find the 750ml size fits great spout up in a standard tin. With the bottle in the tin you can nail behind the back tosses all day long. I'm not much for juggling these 2 items yet, but I'm getting there too.
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotamy.

Hey guys ,
I can give you one piece of advise I am very good with 2 and three objects and the best way to describe how i got good was , it all boils down to your double and single flips. your rotations must be clean and the same way everytime you do it.for instance i do a double shadow pass i know when the neck is going to be next to my hand its everytime the same rotation on the bottle same speed and bingo you guys will be great. At work i do about a thousand doubles a day and thats the best way to make it consistant try to make the throws the same speed same height everytime until its automatic hope this helps Flair

Ok Will
Lets go with bottle and tin.
One thing you need to get over is weight - the two objects weigh differently so try and master a set of moves with both objects and get comfortable.
Now combinations - swipes, switches, pour n cuts and catches.
There are hundreds of things you can do with a tin and bottle.
The first thing is swipes ie with bottle in right hand on the body - try and push the bottle up a little and then recatch it and cross your body. Then with your left go under your right arm and toss the tin over across your right arm as you uncross. You shoud end up in the same position as you started. now you can swipe through clockwise anti-clockwise.
Switch. With bottle in LH and tin in right. throw bottle in air for catch in LH and then at the same time pass the tin from your rh to you Lh in front and then take your LH behind your back to catch the bottle behind your back.
Pours and Cuts - just free pouring into a tin.
Catches - this is for another week.
If you want good examples then you need Christians Vids
Hope this helps

Aging crossings, sewer garner City attention
Officials hope to replace sewer line before crossing work complete
D&I Railroad and L.G. Everist need to replace a few railroad crossings in Dell Rapids in the coming months but an aging sewer line underneath them has the City scrambling to find the money to replace the utility at the same time.The three most northern railroad crossings on Beach Avenue, near the entrance to L.G. Everist's property, must be replaced by next March, D&I president Jack Parliament told the City Council at its meeting June 17."Beach (Avenue) is in dire need of crossing surface and the structure underneath the rail," he said. The two companies, he said, plan to pursue grant funding to pay for 90 percent of the project. They'll pay for the other 10 percent.City administrator Justin Weiland said because the eight-inch sanitary sewer line that runs underneath Beach Avenue is "in pretty bad shape," the council should replace the line at the same time that the railroad is replaced."They have to happen together because we don't want them spending a hundred and fifty thousand bucks to put a brand new crossing in and then have to put the sewer in later," he said. "It only makes sense to do this at the same time."The cost of replacing the line from just south of 6th Street to the southern crossing is figured to be more than $100,000.

If you need home warranty advice, review these tips to understand how they work. Start with a reputable company and understand the contract.
A home warranty is a good marketing tool for a home seller. Before you offer one to a potential homebuyer, make sure you do your research on the company.
Home warranties don't always come with the kind of robust protection and security homeowners expect. Here's a quick breakdown on the real costs, and real benefits, of purchasing a warranty for your home.
Angie's Answers
First, call your insurance company and tell them you do not want any proceeds paid to the contractor under your policy as you are not going with them. This way they can not collect money on your behalf. Insurance will typically have you sign a form for release of funds anyway but this is a good extra step to make sure your signature isn't forged. Second, call the contractor and tell them you will not be needing their services afterall. Did your husband pay a deposit? If so it may be non-refundable. Then follow up with a certified letter.
An email as well doesn't hurt but some states don't yet recognize email as a form of communication for legally binding documentation. This may have changed and I'm sure more states do recognize them as I haven't followed that topic elsewhere as much as I used to. The contractor's office should be local. A sure fire way to ensure they got the message is to deliver the letter to the office of the contractor and have someone at the office sign a duplicate stating it has been recieved and read. There's no arguing whether they received it or not by doing that.
Hopefully you've learned your lesson about high pressure sales techniques and storm chasers looking for a quick buck. Some people find out a much harder way. While these guys may be legitimate you should always do your homework on a contractor before signing the contract. Unless you have water running out of the house and the work has to be done on the spot it's not so much of an emergency that it can't wait until the next day.

Bicycle Buying And Repair reviews in Sherman
I have filed a complaint on-line with the Better Business Bureau against and have also filed it with , the Director at the Chamber of Commerce in .
My husband rented a mountain bike on 12/31/14 from around 1:15 pm. The owner attached the rented bike rack and mounted the Norco Fluid 7.2 mountain bike with a bike beam after extending the bike seat to accommodate my husband's height. My husband never touched the bike on the bike rack and was concerned at the time if the bike was secure on the rented bike rack which the owner said it was. My husband then drove to Robbinsville to pick me up to go mountain biking but I was not ready. When I looked out of the front door I saw the rented bike on the bike rack. My husband then drove about 6 miles away to pick up our daughter and friend and pick up our own person mountain bike but when he arrived he noticed that the bike was no longer on the bike rack. As he drove back to pick me up he looked everywhere between the 2 locations but could not find the rented mountain bike. When he was almost at the location to pick me up he found the seat of the bike in the middle of the 1 mile gravel road and got out again to look for the mountain bike but could not find it. We then drove back to to tell the owner ( ) that the bike had fallen off and was lost/stolen because of improper installation of the mountain bike on the bike rack. said she would talk with her partner and let us know the following day. We rented another mountain bike so we could go biking the following day. When we returned the 2nd rented mountain bike on 1/1/15 at 5:30 pm, told us that she was charging us $1153.50 for the lost/stolen bike and would take absolutely no responsibility for her faulty installation which caused the bike to fall off their installed bike rack. I have reported this to the and Robbinsville police department and filed as mentioned above, filed a complaint against . My husband de Weijer and I are requesting a refund of the $1153.50 and the additional charges that were incurred due to faulty installation. was completely unsympathetic, non compromising, and totally unwilling to take any responsibility for her faulty installation and would not accept solution except to pay full price for this used mountain bike which fell off their bike rack. We feel the charge of $1153.50 by is completely unfair due to the owners faulty installation and absolutely taking no responsibility for installing. As mentioned, my husband never touched the bike after it was installed and never stopped at a place where the bike was unattended.
Sincerely, de Weijer 734 San Drive , FL 33326 954-547-5687

Factoring companies are one of the financial institutions that entrepreneurs head to when they need extra cash and capital for their businesses. The said entities provide services which we refer to as invoice or receivables factoring. This method allows entrepreneurs to sell the right to collect against their invoices in exchange for an immediate advance of their value. It is an effective means that isn't time consuming or so much of a fuss to apply for. At the same time, it works for entities with increasing bad debts, poor cash flows, high levels of liabilities and financial problems.
Now, if you are planning to subject your customer invoices to the said service then below are a few things to ask your chosen factors before turning over your right against the collection. Read up and get to answering.
Question #1: How much can I expect to advance?
Each factor often varies in this department but you can expect around eighty to ninety five percent of the value of the invoices. It is of course best to ask and talk to many providers so you can weigh your options well.
Question # 2: Do you do single invoice factoring, monthly or both?
There are those who cater to factoring single invoices only while there too are those who only do a monthly or long term arrangement. At the same time you can find those that cater to both. You have to know your needs and at the same task ask the companies you talk to.
Question # 3: What are the fees involved?
This one will also vary from one factoring company to another. The service fee is an amount paid to the provider for the services rendered to them and is deducted from the amount that can be advanced. Be sure to ask what fees these are and what comprises it. You don't want to be surprised so you better know for sure.
Question # 4: How fast can I get the funds I need?
The very charm of dealing with factoring companies is the fact that invoice financing can get your needed funds quicker than other funding options there are. Of course this does not go to say that every provider does this well. You have to scrutinize and ask them point blank about this. Get to know their process and at the same time you might want to read reviews and feedback on them too.
