text: There are no translations available. Homeopathic Materia Medica by FarringtonINTRODUCTION( )A CLINICAL MATERIA MEDICA. Today we are to begin our study of Materia Medica. At the outset, it will be necessary to give a rambling review of the subject. Before you begin the study of the details of a science, you must understand the construction of that science or art. Were it not for these underlying laws which string together the Materia Medica into one consistent whole, you would have no need for lectures on the subject. The ten volumes of the ENCYCLOPEDIA OF MATERIA MEDICA, issued by Dr. Allen, of New York, contain over nine thousand pages. These do not include clinical symptoms, which would make several thousand more. Then recollect, each physician discovers something new each year, and so a great mass of knowledge is accumulated by a sort of compound multiplication. You can, therefore, well understand why the student might be startled at the idea of attempting to master such a conglomeration. Nor could he master it, were he to attempt to do so by memory alone. Man's mind is composed of more than memory. Memory is the impression made on the mind by a fact. Recollection is another qualification of the mind, which enables one to call up the facts which have been memorized. It is understood that nothing which we take into the memory is ever effaced. It remains there forever. It may be covered with figurative cobwebs and never brought to light, unless the mind is so drilled or so orderly arranged that it may be recalled when occasion requires. The mind should be so drilled and its various faculties so trained, that, when an external thing occurs similar to an internal fact, i.e., a fact memorized, at once that external thing awakens into recollection the fact or facts bearing on that subject. This is very apt to be so with our feelings, perhaps, more naturally than with our intellects, because the latter require more cultivation. Many of us are so strong emotionally that we may call up an emotion without any evident effort of the will or any direction of the understanding. Let me give you an example. A man, on one occasion, was driving along a country road, and ran over a dog and horribly mangled the poor animal. This made him feel very sick. The event was apparently forgotten. Several years later, he was driving along the same road, never thinking of the incident, until he came to the spot where the accident happened, when immediately the same sensation of sickness occurred. Then, the impression which was made on his mind was recalled and at once awakened the emotions. Thus must be the intellectual mind of the man who would master the science of medicine. He must see his patient; and when he sees his patient, it awakens in his mind the picture of the remedy. This has been termed instinct, but it is not. To do this, he must study persistently. You see a physician old in years, come into a sick-room. At once he says, this patient needs Sulphur. How did he know that ? It was not second sight on his part; but through thirty or forty years experience he had been studying Sulphur, had been forming in his mind images of Sulphur, and living ideas of Sulphur. The moment he sees these in his patient, that moment he recollects Sulphur. If he had not the idea of that remedy in his mind, he could not see it in his patient. Now, I ask of you not to try to jump over these years that must pass between the beginning and the ending of the art of medicine, and do not make yourselves prophets before your times. In order to bring some system out of this chaos of Materia Medica, it will be necessary to adopt some plan of study. What is that plan is asked by every student; one teacher answers in one way, another in another. The method may not be correct and yet its results may be good. It does well enough for a scaffolding by which you erect your building, after which the scaffolding is removed and the building remains. Some method must be adopted and that retained to the end. In analyzing the method which I have chosen to adopt, it may be well to begin at the beginning and carry you on until you may see what plan I propose for your adoption. It may not be clear at once. An abstract thing is not at once grasped by the mind. It requires to come up time after time. What seems difficult at first, is plain enough after a while. In the first place, I will begin by suggesting an analysis of the drug. We presume now that you have heard of some one substance which has been a popular remedy in your part of the country for years. You think that it ought to be proved. You proceed to get the necessary material. First, you procure your drug. You prepare its tincture and then you potentize it. Now it is a principle of homeopathy to which there is no exception, that you shall learn the action of a drug on the healthy organism before you use it in practice. That is a rule which you cannot neglect. You cannot be too careful, otherwise you throw yourself into confusion, doubt and empiricism and help to fill the Materia Medica with "bosh", of which there is enough already there. What you want to know is exactly what this medicine will do. What would you think of a machinist who undertook to build a machine when he did not know how the, parts fitted together? what would you think of a physician who does not know the use of the tools he is about to employ ? You now intend to try the effects of this drug on some healthy person or persons. Will it produce alterations in the function or the nutrition of the body or of its organs? If so a symptom or symptoms will be the result. Symptoms, then, are indications of alterations in the functions or the nutrition of a part or of parts of the body. I have been accused of stepping down from the lofty heights of pure homeopathy and dressing myself in physiological livery. The statement made against me is that we cannot know what changes are taking place except through symptoms, therefore if one begins to talk about altered tissue, he at once pollutes homeopathy. This is true and it is false. It is true if you take this altered tissue alone. It is not true if you regard this altered tissue as a manifestation of the change in the vital force. I cannot see how there can be a symptom which is not at least the result of a change of function. I do not mean that you must give Bryonia because it acts on serous membranes ; I do not mean that you must give Aconite because it produces dry skin, heat, etc. I do not say that you shall give Belladonna because it produces hyperaemia of the brain and dilatation of the pupil; but I do say that these drugs produce these effects, and if these effects are not alterations in function what are they ? We can know changes in the vital forces only by results, and these results are symptoms. Now you get symptoms in your provings. These symptoms you will find to be embraced under two grand classes, subjective and objective. The subjective symptoms are those which the prover himself experiences and which he has to express to you in certain language. The objective are those which apply directly to your senses. They are such as you may see, hear, touch, taste or smell. For instance, if you give the drug we are speaking of and the prover says he feels a pain over the right eye, that is a subjective symptom. You cannot see it, touch it, taste it or feel it. It does not apply to your senses. You know what pain is; you have experienced it; you can appreciate it in your own mind. But if a boil is produced by this medicine, if there is a cloudy deposit in the urine, or if there are mucous rales or harsh sounds in the lungs, if the heart itself is altered in its action, if a wart appears on the skin, or if sweat breaks out, you have an objective symptom. Now what will be the alteration in function which these objective and subjective symptoms express? They are decrease of function, increase of function and alteration of function. If this drug produces photophobia, there is increase of function; if, on the other hand, it causes blindness so great that the patient can gaze at the sun, there is decrease of function ; whereas if it produces cloudiness of the cornea or visions of bright stars, there is an alteration of function. The prover may have increased urination, decreased urination or brick-dust sediment in the urine, this last being an alteration of function. So when we come to speak of a drug and to tell you what its effect on the system is, we will have these three classes with which to deal, increase, alteration and decrease. You go on collecting these symptoms, both subjective and objective. If you are skilled in the analysis of the excreta of the body, you should make use of your knowledge to determine the elimination of urates, phosphates etc. These are facts and, in their places, are invaluable. I would have you mind this expression, IN THEIR PLACE VALUABLE, OUT OF PLACE VALUELESS AND EVEN HARMFUL. An increase in the elimination of urea would weigh nothing in the balance, against the mental state. All symptoms of the Materia Medica are not of the same value. They are relative in value. We include all the symptoms that we can observe. Then what have we ? A mass of symptoms seeming to have no connection at all. They come from a human organism that is all order and perfection and all the parts of which work in perfect harmony. When even one of these parts is out of order, there must be a certain clue to string these effects together and picture a form of disease and when you get this form of disease, what have you ? A pathological state. I hope that no diploma will be granted to any man in this class who does not study pathology. When you have the changes IN TOTO that this substance has made on the system, you have the pathology of the case. You have the totality of the effects on the system. This grand effect of the drug must be in the mind always, qualifying the individual symptoms of the drug. You may express this as you choose. Some call it the genus of the drug; others speak of it as the general action of the drug. This you must have in your mind or the other symptoms are worthless. Did you not do this, you would be a mere symptomist, certainly a term of reproach. You must know what the whole drug does or you are not able to appreciate any one part of the drug. You can find twenty drugs with precisely the same symptoms. How will you decide between them ? Apparently they are all identical but not in their general action. How is this general action found ? By the study of the drug as a whole. But here is a place where physicians may go too precipitately and fall into pathology. They say that as Belladonna produces a picture of scarlatina and as Arsenicum produces a picture of cholera Asiatica even unto the growths found in the excrement, therefore these substances must be THE remedies for these respective diseases. Baptisia produces a perfect picture of typhoid fever, therefore they say Baptisia must be THE remedy in typhoid fever. As we carry out the view I expressed a few minutes ago, when we examine a patient for disease, we proceed in exactly the same way as we do in case of the proving. We note the changes we see and the sensations the patient feels; we look at his tongue, we examine his urine, we put all these together and we make a pathological picture of that man. Suppose you decide the case to be one of typhoid fever. That must not be valued except by comparison, showing how the present case differs from the general disease. If the genus of the case under treatment suits the genus of Baptisia, and, if you give that remedy, the patient will recover whether you call his case typhoid fever or mumps. If this is not the case, Baptisia will do no good. If the patient has the Baptisia symptom, " thinks he is double, or all broken to pieces," that drug will not cure unless the genus of Baptisia is there too. I may be permitted to recall a remark of Carroll Dunham. At a certain consultation there was chosen for a patient, a drug which seemed to have many of his symptoms; but when Dr. Dunham was asked for his opinion as to whether that drug was the similimum, he replied, "No, I think not, for the general character of Ignatia does not correspond with the general character of the patient which does correspond to Baryta. You will find his most prominent symptoms under Baryta." One physician decided for one drug, the other for another. Each went by his study of the drug; one understood Ignatia in part, the other by its totality. It is my duty to show you this winter, the genus of each drug and the relations which drugs bear to one another. I cannot hope to give you all that is characteristic of each, but I think that I can give you an idea of its genus, and show you how drugs are related so that you may fill up the interstices at leisure. You must acknowledge, that Materia Medica is the most important of all branches. You cannot understand it unless you have a thorough knowledge of the others. You must learn symptoms and not mere words, and you cannot put any idea into them until you know their meaning; and unless you can interpret symptoms, you can never learn the genus of a drug. Analysis of a medicine. Blood and bloodvessels. Lymph and its vessels. Nerves, brain, spine, and sympathetic ; muscles, tendons, ligaments. Connective tissue. . Bones, cartilages, and joints. Serous and synovial membranes. Mucous membranes. Skin. Organs. We want to understand a drug as analyzed according to the schema on the board. We want to see how it affects the blood and bloodvessels, the lymph and lymph vessels, the nervous system, including, of course, the brain, spine, and sympathetic nervous system. Again, this first division tells us of the nutrition of the body. The second, the lymph, likewise tells us of nutrition and how well repair is going on. The muscles, ligaments, etc., speak to tell you how the human machine may move; and so you may go through the entire schema. You will note the deviations from the physiological under each of these headings. Under the condition of the blood you will note increase as in plethora or hyperemia, decrease as in anaemia or ischaemia, and alteration as in chlorosis or pyaemia. The same is true of the lymph, which may exhibit plus, minus, and change, and so on down the list. When you study the drug by this analysis, you quickly arrive at an idea of it as a whole, that is, you get the genus of the drug. But when you have done that, you are not through with your difficulties. You must learn to tell one drug from another. You go into a field and you see two or three hundred cattle. They all look alike to you, yet the man in charge of them knows each one. How does he know them ? He knows them by certain distinctions which he has learned by familiarity with them. So can you know one drug from another by studying their, points of difference. Drugs impinge in their resemblances, and separate in their differences. Thus we have another form of study, comparison of drugs. That is just as necessary to successful practice as is the first step, the analysis of the drug. Then again there are drugs which antidote each other. You may have made a mistake. Your patient may be too susceptible to the action of the remedy, and you require to modify its effects. It was only yesterday that I prescribed Nux vomica for a cold. It relieved the patient of his cold but he became almost crazy with headache. He had had an excess of Nux vomica, so I gave him Coffea, and in ten minutes his head was better. This was done by simply modifying the effects of Nux vomica, not by suppressing the symptom. Again, there are some remedies which, although they bear a strong resemblance to each other, seem as though they ought to be concordant remedies; yet they are inimical. So you study the Materia Medica, analyzing one drug after the other until you have analyzed all. Then you must arrange your remedies according to some system in your mind, and so be enabled to recall facts as you need them. If you only study one remedy, every case you see fits that remedy. If you have studied Aconite, every case will suggest Aconite. Thus, you must have Aconite by its confreres, side by side in your mind, before you can use them, successfully in the sick room. This is done by systematizing your study. Now then, you will find that drugs hold certain relations to each other. You will find five relations. The first I have called the family relation, derived from their similarity in origin. When drugs belong to the same family they must, of necessity, have a similar action. For instance, the halogens, Chlorine, Iodine, Bromine, and Fluorine have many similitudes, because they belong to one family. So, too, with remedies derived from the vegetable kingdom. Take for instance, the family to which Arum triphyllum belongs. There you find drugs which resemble each other from their family origin. Take the Ophidians, and you will be perplexed to tell the differences between Lachesis, Elaps, and Crotalus. This resemblance through relationship is sometimes so nearly identical, that these drugs do not follow each other well. Take, for example, Ignatia and Nux vomica. Both come from the same order of plants; they do not follow each other well, and they do not antidote each other. Then we may have drugs which present marked similarities in action although dissimilar in origin. These are said to be "concordant". Drugs which hold a concordant relation may follow each other well. There is another relation, that of complement; that is, one drug completes a cure which the other begins, but is unable to effect. Such a relation exists between Belladonna and Calcarea. Next we have the relation of antidote, of which I spoke a few moments ago. Lastly, we have the relation of enmity, one that I am unable to explain to you. It is a fact that certain drugs, although resembling each other apparently, will not follow one another with any satisfaction. They seem to mix up the case. Such drugs are China and Psorinum, Apis and Rhus, Phosphorus and Causticum, and Silicea and Mercury. In carrying out these various ideas, we must study Materia Medica as a natural science, for such it must be intrinsically, although it is as yet undeveloped and unworthy of that dignified name in our present understanding of it. Nature's laws in no way dispute the known relations and actions of drugs. They rather harmonize with them. We are now ready to begin our study of the various drugs composing the Homeopathic Materia Medica. For this purpose I have arranged the remedies in three grand divisions, according to the kingdom of nature from which they are derived, viz.: 1. Remedies derived from the animal kingdom. 2. Remedies derived from the vegetable kingdom. 3. Remedies derived from the mineral kingdom. There is also a fourth class of remedies, the nosodes or disease products. In our next lecture we will begin our study of drugs derived from the animal kingdom.

Johns & Frank Aim for 'Surprising and New' in Latest "Batman: Earth One" Volume
Comic Books
All-Day Event!
November 10, 2012 - February 24, 2013
Heroes & Villains is the first museum exhibition celebrating the artwork of Alex Ross, today's foremost comic book artist. Ross, acclaimed for the photorealism of his work, is often referred to as "the Norman Rockwell of the comics world." Heroes & Villains features over 130 paintings, drawings, photographs and sculptures from Ross's personal collection. The pieces range from a crayon drawing of Spider-Man that he created at the age of four to paintings from his early career on projects like Marvels and Kingdom Come through to his more recent work on Flash Gordon and Green Hornet. This exhibition outlines Ross's career of redefining comic books and graphic novels for a new generation of followers of Superman, Batman, Spider-Man and other classic comic book superheroes.
Showcasing the strong influence of American illustration and Pop Art on Alex Ross, original works by Norman Rockwell, Andrew Loomis, J.C. Leyendecker, and Andy Warhol are included. Artworks by Ross's mother Lynette Ross (a successful commercial illustrator in her own right) are on display as well. A selection of comic books and related paraphernalia collected by Warhol throughout his life are showcased within the exhibit.
Heroes & Villains is the first museum exhibition of Ross's work and comprises four galleries. Ross has graciously prepared an original artwork for Norman Rockwell Museum which is available to the public in poster form exclusively at The Museum Store, and online at store.nrm.org*, in November. Ross will also make a rare appearance for the opening celebration on November 10, 2012.

Boston Red Sox 2015 News and Updates
4/27/15 - The new-look Boston Red Sox have opened the season with a much more dynamic offense compared to last year. However, their starting rotation has been knocked around on multiple occasions, leaving the Sox tied for second in the AL East with the Tampa Bay Rays. Boston jumped out of the gate, taking two of three games in each of their first three series, but they have also suffered four of their 10 losses at the hands of the Baltimore Oriels. The Red Sox split the first two games of their current three-game set versus the Toronto Blue Jays, with the rubber game to be played on Wednesday evening. Tickets for Fenway Park are on sale now! Be a part of the live action starting at just $10!
4/21/15 - The Boston Red Sox went 2 for 2 with the Orioles in a four game series at home. The Red Sox won the first game 2-3. The Orioles were the first to score, with a run in the fourth and the fifth inning. The Red Sox were able to tie the game with two runs in the fifth. After several scoreless innings, the Red Sox got a run in the ninth inning for the win. The next two games belonged to the Orioles. In the fourth game, the Red Sox dominated, winning 7-1. They were the first to get a run on the board, and a four run third inning helped secure the win. The Red Sox beat the Rays on the 21st in the first of three back to back games. Tickets remain available, with prices starting at $10.

4/15/15 - The Boston Red Sox are off to a great start to the season. They have won the first two from a three game series against the Nationals this week. In their first meeting, the Red Sox won 9-4 for a perfect home opener. The MVP of the game was Mookie Betts, who robbed a homer, stole two bases, and hit a three run homer. The second game was closer, with a final score of 8-7. The Red Sox were behind by two in the seventh, but the Nationals made a few errors, which led to the Red Sox scoring three runs for the win. The teams meet once more, and then the Red Sox host the Orioles for a four game series starting on April 17. Tickets remain available, with prices starting at $29.
4/10/15 - The season has begun and the Boston Red Sox record is even with one win and one loss. Their home opening game against the Phillies went their way with an 8-0 win. The star of the game for the Red Sox was Clay Buchholz who threw three-hit ball over a total of seven innings. The Red Sox offense also played outstanding. Hanley Ramirez and Dustin Pedroia each slammed two homers in, which helped lead the Red Sox to a first game victory. This weekend the Red Sox hit the road for their series match up against the New York Yankees. Tickets for Friday, Saturday and Sunday's game are still available to purchase.

3/26/15 - Spring training for the Boston Red Sox has gone pretty well so far and the team is thrilled for regular season play to start. Currently they are tied for fifth place with Tampa Bay in the Cactus league. On March 26, 2015 the Boston Red Sox faced off against the Minnesota Twins. This game was much anticipated because the Red Sox star player, David Ortiz, was returning to the field after a nine-day absence from dehydration. Unfortunately, having Ortiz back wasn't much help. He ended the game 0 for 3 at the plate. Regardless of Ortiz's performance, the Boston Red Sox were able to pull off a 5-4 win against the Twins. There are so many more exciting games coming up this next week, so don't miss your chance to see the Red Sox live. Most games still have tickets available as low as $14.
3/19/15 - It was clear that the Boston Red Sox wanted to make a splash this off-season, picking up Pablo Sandoval from the Giants and snatching Rick Porcello to strengthen their rotation. Porcello has looked good in spring training thus far, and turned in a one-run, three-hit performance in four innings to help Boston take a 3-2 win over the Minnesota Twins in Grapefruit League play. At 9-6 overall, the Sox currently sit in fourth place among eastern teams, although they will lose some offensive pop for the next few days as DH David Ortiz sits out to recover from dehydration symptoms.

3/9/15 - The Boston Red Sox hold the second place in the Grapefruit League with a 4-2 record, behind the New York Yankees (5-2).

They earned another in the ninth and kept the Cardinals from scoring, giving the Red Sox the win at 3-0. The Red Sox host the New York Yankees, their longtime rivals on Friday (3/13) at JetBlue Park, their home during the training season. Tickets start at $88.

The MLB reports that Brian Johnson, a left-handed pitcher for the Sox, is looking physically fit and well-conditioned. If you're in the Fort Myers area for spring training, you'll want to come down to JetBlue Park and catch one of the exciting opening games to see the line-up.

Tickets start at $90.
1/28/15 - In 2013, the Boston Red Sox won the World Series, then turned around in 2014 to finish last in the American League East. Their line-up is changing for the 2015 Season, swapping pitchers with the Texas Rangers. The Red Sox lost Anthony Ranaudo, and gained Robbie Ross. Ross went 3-6 with a 6.20 ERA in 27 games last year for the Rangers. He should be a valuable addition as a left-handed pitcher. With a new line-up for the 2015 MLB Season, the Red Sox hope to get back on top of the League. They have top draft picks Blake Swihart and Henry Owens, as well as a list of lesser-known younger players who will have a chance to show their stuff.

3/21/14 - esterday the Red Sox battled the New York Yankees in one of their last remaining Spring Training games left. In the end the Yankees came out of the game with the victory after going up early in the game and never looking back from there. One bright spot from last nights game has to be the play of Grady Sizemore who was out of baseball for two years before coming back this season and played a full nine innings while scoring a run to all but cement his job as the Opening Day centerfielder.
3/20/14 - The Red Sox lost yesterday's Spring Training game to the Pittsburgh Pirates but there were a few takeaways of note. The first being Jake Peavy's solid performance on the mound going 4 ? strong and giving up just one earned run, while the second is David Ortiz's continued struggle at the plate.

Grady Sizemore played his best game yet since returning to the major leagues after sitting out two seasons due to injuries going 3-4 with some great glove work in centerfield.
3/17/14 - This weekend was one the Boston Red Sox would like to forget about quickly. The Sox lost two games over the weekend, the first of which was Saturday against the Philadelphia Phillies who got a great outing from Cliff Lee who threw five scoreless innings while the second loss came to the Tampa Bay Rays and David Price who threw his best stuff on Sunday giving up two in 6 ? innings.

3/14/14 - Phil Hughes may not be pitching for the New York Yankees this season but that hasn't stopped the Boston Red Sox from having his number, giving up two runs in three innings for the Minnesota Twins on Thursday afternoon.

Boston Red Sox tickets are the cheapest this week when they take on the Miami Marlins tomorrow (get-in for $16), and are the priciest when they play the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday (get-in for $85).
3/10/14 - This past weekend the Boston Red Sox split their two games, getting blown out 13-2 in Saturday's game to AL East division rival the Baltimore Orioles but taking the final game of the weekend by beating the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-2. Clay Buchholz started Sunday's game and went three innings without giving up a hit before calling it a day and hitting the showers but it was Jackie Bradley Jr. who impressed by knocking in two runs in the second to put the Sox up. Today the Red Sox will host the Tampa Bay Rays as we inch closer and closer towards Opening Day which is presently less than three weeks away.
3/7/14 - The Red Sox did something that you rarely see in baseball; tie. The spring training game between Boston and the Miami Marlins was called after 7 2/3 innings due to rain with both teams failing to score a run by that time in the game. One takeaway from this game will be the Devin Marrero and his stellar play at shortstop where he showed off his spectacular range making several athletic plays.
3/6/14 - Yesterday afternoon the Boston Red Sox took the field to play a rematch of last season's World Series against the St. Louis Cardinals, and despite their best efforts in putting together a rally in the top of the 9th inning still came away short losing 8-6. Today, the Red Sox will play the Miami Marlins who have been a nice surprise this Spring Training at a record of 5-2.
3/5/14 - The Boston Red Sox had one of their worst games of spring training so far on Tuesday when they lost 8-0 to the Tampa Bay Rays. The Red Sox got behind early and were never able to amount much of anything on offense while giving up a staggering 16 hits to the Rays despite starting Clay Buchholz on the mound. Today, Boston will prepare for a rematch of last season's World Series when they play the St. Louis Cardinals this afternoon.
3/4/14 - The Red Sox lost a close game to the Pittsburgh Pirates last night by a score of 7 to 6, but a bigger concern for Boston has to be their pitcher Jake Peavy who was scheduled to start the game but was scratched at the last minute due to accidentally slicing his finger open with fishing knife. Starting in his place was Brandon Workman who had a rough outing, only lasting 2 ? innings and giving up five hits and five runs in the process.
3/3/14 PM - The Boston Red Sox fell in back-to-back games against the Minnesota Twins in two Grapefruit League opening thrillers last week. Thanks to the homerun-slugging bat of Mike Napoli, Boston turned things around with an 8-6 victory over the Baltimore Orioles yesterday. Heisman winner Johnny Football turned into Johnny Baseball this weekend, sporting a custom Boston jersey, and took time visiting with fans and players at the Red Sox camp. Expect more high-profile stars to attend Red Sox games and spend their spring in sunny Florida. You can join them with cheap Boston Red Sox tickets this weekend! Boston will play the Atlanta Braves (get-in for $26 on 3/7) and the Baltimore Orioles (get-in for $18 on 3/8).
3/3/14 AM - Jake Peavy was scheduled to make his first start today in Bradenton, FL but was scratched after suffering a laceration to his left index finger with a fishing knife over the weekend. Peavy will not be throwing for three days, according to manager John Farrell, and then will begin a program off the mound. Luckily for Sox fans, it is Peavy's non-throwing hand and does not appear altogether a major issue.
2/24/14 - Xander Bogaerts, last year's electrifying starter in all 6 World Series games, has finally secured the job at shortstop with no competition in Spring Training. Bogaerts is a rising star in baseball, budding fan-favorite and a front-runner to win 2014's Rookie of the Year. You have to check him out as he gears up for his first full MLB season with Boston Red Sox tickets! Since practice officially kicked off, Red Sox spring training tickets have risen slightly: from $78 to $82, making Boston the second most in-demand team to see this season.
2/18/14 - This weekend Ryan Dempster announced a 2014 season hiatus and will forgo a guaranteed $13.25 million to pitch this year. After lingering injuries and familial issues plagued him in the offseason, it is unclear whether the respected pitcher will be making a retirement speech soon, but teammates and media both gave him a standing ovation at the press conference. This decision leaves the franchise with additional spending money for younger arms, or a midsummer acquisition. The Boston Red Sox will partake in a Northeastern & Boston College doubleheader on 2/27 ($5 to get-in), and they will take on the Minnesota Twins for their first official Spring Training game a day later ($28 to get-in).
2/11/14 - Mike Napoli and his beard are already suited up in Florida, waiting to report in 4 days for Spring Training. In less than ten days, every position player for the Boston Red Sox will take the field for their first workout together. With Jacoby Ellsbury out, the Red Sox will be holding auditions for a leadoff man this spring. Daniel Neva, Shane Victorino and Xander Bogaerts are likely candidates.

The defending World Series Champions have kept things pretty quiet in the offseason, largely sticking by their tried-and-true roster. After jetting from worst-to-first in 2013, the Red Sox are ready for another go, having officially shaved their beards in anticipation of
Spring Training
. Boston has stayed out of the spotlight this winter, taking low-risk transactions in the offseason: losing Jacoby Ellsbury to rival
, Jarrod Saltalamacchia and potentially Stephen Drew in exchange for A.J. Pierzynski, Grady Sizemore and Edward Mujica. 38 year-old World Series MVP David Ortiz is seeking a multiyear extension deal with Boston, otherwise, the slugger has made it known he has "no choice [but to] move on" from the franchise. Conversely, Jon Lester is willing to take a discount and sign an extension with Boston, stating, "I want to be here 'til they rip this jersey off my back"—which is just one indication of how devoted players and fans are to this organization. Not only does Boston boast a legion of veterans, but also the top 100 prospects list came out just in time for Spring Training, and it features nine Red Sox players (including No.2 Xander Boagaerts), the most of any team in the league. With all of this fresh talent mixing with experienced players, grab your Boston Red Sox tickets today and watch them make another run for the World championship!
2013 Season
10/21/13 - The Red Sox beat the Detroit Tigers 5-2 in Game 6 to advance to the World Series for the first time since 2007. The average price of
World Series tickets
in Boston is $1,565. Because the Sox have home-field advantage, that average is based on a potential four home games. Since the beginning of the postseason, the average price has dropped 14%, 9% since last Tuesday. However, World Series tickets in Boston remain the most expensive of the two ball clubs. Red Sox World Series tickets are 18% more expensive than Bruins Stanley Cup Finals tickets were this year.
10/11/13 - The Red Sox advanced to the ALCS after taking the Division Series over Tampa Bay in four games. Boston will compete for its 13th American League pennant; but they'll have to overtake the Detroit Tigers, a team they went 3-4 against in the 2013 regular season. The two baseball powerhouse franchises have never met before in the postseason.
ALCS tickets
in Boston are the most expensive in the LCS, averaging $624, 7% less than Boston Bruins ECF tickets.
10/4/2013 - Heading into Division Series play, the Boston Red Sox have the most expensive World Series tickets on the market at an average price of $1,812. World Series Game 2 in Boston is the cheapest, averaging $1,554 a ticket at Fenway.
9/24/13 - The Boston Red Sox have not only clinched a playoff berth but the team has also secured their seventh East Division title, their first since 2007 (the same year the team won its seventh World Series). Just a year ago, the franchise was dead last in the AL East; in 2013, the Red Sox were the second team in MLB to earn a spot in the postseason and they're division leaders. Appropriately, Boston picked up its title with Koji Uehara on the mound and a 6-3 win at home. ALDS tickets for the first home game at Fenway are averaging $316. ALCS tickets for HG1 (if applicable) are more than double the cost.
7/25/13 - The Bosox were not expected to do much in 2013, after a dismal, last-place 2012 performance. Instead, what they give us is yet another reason why baseball offers such compelling drama over a long season, standing atop the uber-competitive AL East at the All-Star break. Red Sox Nation are surely asking, can they keep it up?
3/26/13 – The Red Sox may be offering free food and cheap beer for the first month of the season to lure back fans to
Fenway Park
, but they aren't cutting ticket prices. Boston has the 3rd most expensive ticket in MLB this April with series at home against the
Baltimore Orioles
Tampa Bay Rays
Kansas City Royals
Oakland Athletics
, and
Houston Astros
. The Red Sox home opener will be April 8th against the Baltimore Orioles. Red Sox Opening Day tickets are priced from $52 (down $23 since February) in the Bleachers to $846 for a Field Box and average $188. If you wait two days, you can see the same two teams play for an average of $40. The cheapest series in April will come against the A's with tickets available for under $10 to each of the three games.
After long being the darlings of the American League, the Boston Red Sox finally crashed to earth in 2012 with their first losing record since 1997, and finishing last in the highly-competitive American League East for the first time since 1992. Although well supported by the Fenway Park faithful, the regime of first year skipper Bobby Valentine struggled both on the field as well as off, with Valentine being responsible for a number of headline incidents which proved corrosive to team chemistry. As well, several key players struggled with injuries, most notably DH David Ortiz, who was limited to just 90 games in 2012.
Even still, Big Papi finished second on the team in homers to catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia, and was getting on base at a .415 clip. First baseman Adrian Gonzalez was the only Bosox player with sufficient appearances to qualify for the batting title to hit .300. Only two starting pitchers for the Red Sox qualified for the ERA title (162 or more innings pitched) — Clay Buchholz, who was 11-8 with a 4.56 ERA and 129 strikeouts; and Jon Lester, who was 9-14, with an ERA of 4.82 and 166 K's. Red Sox Nation is certainly hoping for more in 2013. Boston Red Sox tickets at Fenway Park are the second most expensive
ticket in 2013, averaging $106 — only
Chicago Cubs
fans will pay more to see a home game this season. Boston fans following the team on the road should expect to pay an average of $5 less per ticket.

If the sci-fi/horror hybrid "Dark Skies" had been an hour-long episode of a television anthology series like "The Twilight Zone," it might have gone down as a thoroughly average installment that handled the familiar elements in a reasonably skillful manner. In extending itself to reach a conventional feature length, however, it becomes a below-average programmer in which brief moments of interest are interrupted by long stretches of boredom. It eventually ends abruptly, as if designed specifically to enrage the hardy viewers who actually make it all the way to the end.
Keri Russell and Josh Hamilton play Lacy and Daniel Barrett, an Arizona couple with two sons and money woes — he is out of work and she is a real-estate agent charged with unloading a house so ugly that even the folks on HGTV's Curb Appeal would find it too much of a challenge. In other words, they have enough problems on their hands even before Lacy wakes up in the middle of the night and discovers that something has raided the refrigerator before disappearing into the dark.
There are other inexplicable occurrences — including more food-related weirdness and no fewer than three flocks of birds messily slamming into the house at the same time — and at first, most of them seem to be revolving around younger son Sam (Kadan Rockett), who claims that "The Sandman" is visiting him in his dreams. When the rest of the family begins to experience the inexplicable — trances, seizures, mysterious bloody noses and bruises — they become neighborhood pariahs.
Eventually, they come across eminent Internet crackpot Edwin Allard (J.K. Simmons) and he informs him that they are being tormented by aliens who are experimenting with them as a scientist might use a lab rat. According to him, "The Greys," as he calls them, have been hiding amongst us for a long time and that their recently escalating aggression suggests that they may be preparing to kidnap one of the family. Assuming that Sam is the ultimate target, the Barretts barricade themselves inside their home for a final standoff in which they attempt to fend off the invaders with shotguns and a guard dog. Perhaps not surprisingly, things do not go quite as planned.
Even viewers with only a passing knowledge of the genres that "Dark Skies" is playing with will quickly realize that it is little more than a compilation of elements taken from other and usually better films. The basic plot is pretty much a direct rip-off of the classic suburban ghost story "Poltergeist" (1982), and there are also elements obviously poached from the likes of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" (1956 and 1978), "Signs" (2002), "Paranormal Activity" (2007) and countless other titles. Maybe at some sci-fi convention one day, fanboys can go through it shot-by-shot and call out the name of every movie from which it borrows, as a way of passing time before the "Inspector Spacetime" panel.
To be fair, "Dark Skies" does have a few things going for it. Writer-director Scott Stewart, whose previous efforts have included the inexcusably stupid genre mash-ups "Legion" and "Priest" (2011), takes a slow-burn approach to the proceedings that is effective in setting the oddball mood. As the beleaguered mother, Keri Russell delivers a strong performances that is actually far better and more committed than one might expect from this kind of movie and makes you wish that she got more chances to work on the big screen.
And even though he is only in a couple of scenes, the brief presence of the invaluable J.K. Simmons comes as a blessed relief. After all, if you have to have a scene in which all the weird goings-on are explained in one giant gob of goofy exposition, it is always wise to have it delivered by an actor with the ability to make even the silliest of developments come across as borderline plausible.
For the most part, however, "Dark Skies" is a bore that even the most forgiving genre buffs will find difficult to defend or endure. The ostensible shocks are pedestrian, the story and characters are not particularly interesting and too much screen time is dedicated to subplots that go nowhere, such as Daniel's struggle to find work and older son Jesse's (Dakota Goyo) misadventures with a weird neighborhood kid who appears to have cycled in from "Gummo" and who is by far the creepiest thing in the film.
Then there is the ending, or rather the lack of anything resembling a satisfying conclusion. Without going into too many details, it seems as if Stewart wanted to execute a Shyamalan-esque rug-pulling game-changer in the final reel. What he actually pulled off is the kind of hogwash that will leave viewers sitting in the dark, scratching their heads during the end credits in hopes that the necessary details will be spelled out at the last minute, as in the notorious wrap-up of "Wild Things." Spoiler Alert — they aren't, so feel free to flee the minute the credits begin to roll, if not long before.
In what can only be described as an act of pure perversity, "Dark Skies" opens with a quote from no less an authority than the late, great Arthur C. Clarke: "Two possibilities exist: either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying." This is a profound notion that can set people of all stripes to contemplating their own place in the grand scheme of things. Maybe someday this quotation will get a chance to open a film that is worthy of it.

Have you played any of the older versions of TOME? Like back when it was called Tales of Middle Earth? I specifically remeber version 2 had a low level Satisfy Hunger spell for certain classes that would keep you from starving so long as you had spell points. I believe that some races allowed you to play as a vampire and you could just feed off of monsters. They also had the option to pick up the corpses of the monsters you kill and cut them up into stacks of food. I spent a lot of time digging and exploring dungeons while sustaining my self with chunks of snake.

The Great Washington Shakeup
Thursday - 8/25/2011, 2:01am EDT
There's nothing like a 5.8 earthquake, in an area that doesn't often have that sort of event, to focus your attention.
At the time, I was talking on the phone with a federal union official when she said, "The building is moving, I think we're having an earthquake." Right at that moment I felt it too. We all did. Being an East Coast type I have never felt the earth move (that way), but I knew right away what it was. I wasn't the first to leave our building, but I definitely wasn't the last either. Some of our reporters, and those of our big sister station (WTOP) which is upstairs, stayed at their posts. Most of us were back at work within five minutes.
Reporters and editors were busy checking with the police, transit officials and, of course, federal agencies. We learned about the cracks in the Washington Monument, that the Pentagon and Capitol were evacuated, and of damage to the National Cathedral, which is a block and a half away from our offices here in Northwest D.C. Buses were packed as many early-release feds decided they did not want to be underground on Metro in case of an aftershock.
Cell phones didn't work for awhile. Land lines and e-mail did.
Most people in our office worked out their shifts and many stayed late. Fine, up to a point!
Always thinking outside the box, I volunteered to leave early and monitor traffic. I picked up some wine in case I had to save, treat or shelter refugees in the neighborhood. I'm like the Cabinet officer who doesn't attend the State of the Union address. Like, who's going to run things if there is a problem. I accept that responsibility.
A friend, a retired engineer with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, checked with a colleague about the status of nuclear power plants in nearby Maryland and Virginia. One is only a few miles from the epicenter of the quake. And so it went all day.
Federal offices from New York City, Boston and along the Canadian border to Charleston, S.C., were impacted to some degree. We got the most attention because we're the closest big city (except for Richmond, Va.,) to the center of the quake. And we've got the most feds too.
U.S. Geological Survey employee/experts were all over radio and TV. The ones I saw did an excellent job explaining, in layman's terms, what happened. They were followed by National Weather Service personnel explaining about the approaching hurricane.
About 4 hours after we felt the first (of three) quakes, this message arrived by e-mail from S.F. He said:
"My understanding is that the problems caused by the natural event were dwarfed by the man-made problems caused by releasing Fed employees all at the same time. Seems like a metaphor for Washington lately." Hmmm. Come to think of it most of the elected VIPs are out of town! This may be why things went as smoothly as they did.
Imagine what it would have been like had 500 camera-crazed, microphone obsessed been available for comment and, worse yet, advice? Yep. We definitely dodged a bullet.

Pentagon puts 'faith' in achieving clean audit by 2017
It's the law: The Defense Department must know how it spends every cent of its budget by 2017. But the agency said only 14 percent of its budget is now auditable.
Analysis: Despite market drop, stick to TSP asset allocation
CBS MarketWatch columnist Alan Roth said if he were a federal employee, he would invest in all of the funds or in a life cycle fund.
