Hydromorphone has a high risk for abuse and severe, possibly fatal, breathing problems. The risk for harm is higher if you take the wrong dose/strength, or if you take it along with other drugs that might affect breathing. Be sure you know how to take hydromorphone and what other drugs you should avoid taking with it. (See also Drug Interactions section.) The risk for breathing problems might also be higher when you start this medication and after a dose increase. Get immediate medical help if you notice unusual slow/shallow breathing.
Keep this medicine in a safe place to prevent theft, misuse, or abuse. If a child accidentally swallows this drug, get emergency help right away.
Who should not take hydromorphone rectal?Hydromorphone is used to treat moderate to severe pain. It acts on certain centers in the brain to give you pain relief. This medication is a narcotic pain reliever (opiate-type).
Wash your hands before and after using the suppository. Unwrap and insert one suppository into the rectum as directed by your doctor. Lie down on your left side with right knee bent. Gently push the suppository into the rectum with your finger. Remain lying down for a few minutes, and avoid having a bowel movement for an hour or longer so the drug will be absorbed. The suppository is for use in the rectum only.
If you have nausea, consult your doctor or pharmacist about ways to decrease nausea (such as taking antihistamines, lying down for 1 to 2 hours with as little head movement as possible).
The dosage is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Do not increase your dose, use the medication more frequently, or use it for a longer time than prescribed. Properly stop the medication when so directed.
Pain medications work best if they are used when the first signs of pain occur. If you wait until the pain has worsened, the medication may not work as well.
This medication may cause withdrawal reactions, especially if it has been used regularly for a long time or in high doses. In such cases, withdrawal symptoms (such as restlessness, watery eyes, widened pupils, sweating, runny nose) may occur if you suddenly stop using this medication.

Santa Cruz Bicycles 5010 Carbon XX1 ENVE Complete Mountain Bike
Out of Stock
Item # SNZ0360
Don't worry though, we have a lot more All-Mountain & Trail Bikes - Full Suspension in stock than that.
Santa Cruz Bicycles 5010 Carbon XX1 ENVE Complete Mountain Bike $0.00
Not far from the surface of any 27.5-inch comment thread will float a rant about industry-overlords pushing this standard to shake up everything from backup-bills hidden away in the zipped-vortexes of riding shorts to the pockets of mountain bikers. Truth be told, capitalism is alive and kicking, and hard earned dollars demand innovation. That's why bikes like the 125mm-travel Santa Cruz 5010 Carbon XX1 ENVE Complete mountain bike are finally showing up at trailheads.
Frugal riders are free to enjoy their current wheels and reserve their dollars for the hopeful trailside-hero sidewall fix or that rarer and rarer pay-phone distress call. However, if you're in the market for a bike to explore on one week, and follow up with an endurance or enduro event the next, then the application of mid-size wheels should influence you to vote 27.5 with your dollars.
It's hard to argue against enhanced surface area, approach angle, and volume. After all, that's what set the 29er apart. But sure, within the gravity/park sect, stiff, nimble, and strong 26in wheels will continue to shine. And when the trail favors high-speed, flowing singletrack, the 29er will continue to rule supreme. However, any riding in between these two extremes will find that the mid-wheel 5010 Carbon fits the, excuse the pun, bill.
A quick look at the geometry makes this perfectly clear. The 5010's chainstay length is only a quarter-of-an-inch longer than the Blur TRc, yet it's three-quarters-of-an-inch shorter than the Tallboy LT. Another key number is its bottom bracket height — the 5010 is .04-inches higher than the TRc and a quarter-inch lower than the Tallboy LT. This means that aboard the 5010, you'll enjoy that 'seated within' felling of two-niners, while retaining the nimbleness that would otherwise be lost to long wheelbases, high-center of gravity, and flex'y wheels.
In fact, the 5010's wheelbase is a full-inch shorter than the Tallboy, and it has a trail-worthy 68 degree head tube angle. That's should be enough numbers to expose the playful, yet composed nature of the 5010. But, just as essential to that balance is Santa Cruz's carbon mastery. The 5010 Carbon uses a one-piece layup and curing process for the triangles, as opposed to assembling joints, which would require bonding, wrapping, or rivets. And, because this process allows continuous interlocking fibers to wrap between tubes, the resulting structure efficiently distributes loads and absorbs impact energy. All the while, this process eliminates any excess material. As you might imagine, each size's dedicated tooling makes this is a costly process. However, this allows Santa Cruz to control the outside shape, the inside shape, and to compact the fibers during the layup for the to each frame size.
From the Small to the X-large frame, structure is optimized for intended rider weight and forces. Additionally, placing material where it's needed most results in a strong and nimble chassis for the VPP suspension to work its magic. And speaking of the VPP suspension on the 5010, it's the second generation and features upper- and lower-links that flatten shock rate in order to provide active motion early in the axle path. This allows the rear wheel to easily move up and back as you ride over a bump. The link design also balances downward pedaling force with the pulling force of the chain. This effectively neutralizes them, while also preventing pedal-bob or squatting during acceleration. This keeps speed up, however, VPP also assists in keeping that speed in check. The VPP design also prevents brake-induced lock-out, effectively keeping the suspension supple over braking bumps.
And whether you're rolling over rock gardens, clawing up rooted and rocky climbs, or negotiating steep descents, VPP suspension remains active and responsive. Key to this are its linkages and hardware. A carbon fiber upper-link not only shaves weight, but it also enhances lateral stiffness. At the bottom end of things, an alloy lower-link features easily-serviceable grease ports that are positioned in order to avoid damage and to ensure a long bearing life.
The pivots are oversized, with 15mm locking axle-pins. Additionally, they run on intricately-sealed bearings with one-way purging seals that are intended to last the life of the frame. Even better, this design won't either creak or loosen. And for the people who want every lightweight feature addressed, Santa Cruz topped it off with anodized aluminum hardware where it's applicable. Managing the 5010's 125mm of travel is the lightweight and reliable FOX FLOAT CTD with the smooth and durable Kashima coating.
The easy-to-adjust three position lever provides platform options to maximize efficiency while either climbing, traversing, or descending. At the front of the 5010, a 130mm travel FOX FLOAT 32 Factory has CTD dampening, as well, to keep tuning intuitive. For drivetrain duty SRAM's XX1 reflects simplicity too with its clearance-maximizing solo 32t chainring and 11-42t 11-speed cassette. This not only adds clearance, but it also eliminates the front derailleur, its shifter, and those redundant chainrings.
This opens up plenty or real estate on the Easton Haven carbon handlebar for a remote to the RockShox Reverb Stealth seatpost. Atop of the adjustable post is a WTB Volt SLT Ti saddle, and connecting the bar to the fork is a Thomson X4 stem. Stopping the 5010 Carbon ENVE are a set of Shimano XTR Trail brakes with a 180mm front and 160mm rear rotor. Completing this build is an ENVE Twenty7.5 AM wheelset with Maxxis High Roller 2 EXO Tubeless tires.
The Santa Cruz 5010 Carbon XX1 ENVE Complete Mountain Bike is available in four sizes from Small to X-Large and in the colors Gloss Orange with Orange ENVE Decals and Matte Black with Green ENVE Decals.

Felix looks to overcome struggles vs. Rangers
Perez hopes to outpitch Hernandez and even series against Mariners
ARLINGTON -- When Rangers starter Martin Perez takes the mound on Saturday, he'll face off against his idol, fellow Venezuelan Felix Hernandez.
"I know, for me, he is the best pitcher," Perez said. "I've seen him on television and now we're pitching on the same day. He has to do what he has to do and I have to do my job. I just want to get a win."
Perez has looked impressive this season for the Rangers. The 22-year-old left-hander is 2-0 with a 1.59 ERA over his last three starts. In his last outing on Sunday against the Astros, Perez tossed the first complete game of his big league career while allowing just one run.
Hernandez is having one of the best seasons of his career, with an AL-leading 2.28 ERA and 12-5 record. He's coming off eight scoreless innings of four-hit ball in a 2-0 win over the Brewers.
"Felix was Felix," acting manager Robby Thompson said after his ace's last outing.
But nothing usually comes easy for Hernandez in Arlington, where he'll face the Rangers again on Saturday. Hernandez is 12-18 with a 3.83 ERA in 37 career starts against Texas, including an 0-2, 4.66 mark in three starts this season.
In fact, Hernandez is tied with Chuck Finley for most losses against the Rangers by a single pitcher in the team's history. Of the 24 pitchers who have made at least 25 career starts against the Rangers, Hernandez is among four who have a losing record against them despite having a sub 4.00 ERA. Nolan Ryan, Dennis Eckersley and Moose Haas are the others.
He has the second most losses against one team among active pitchers. Mark Buehrle has lost 19 times to the Twins and 17 times to the Indians.
Hernandez dropped a 5-2 decision to the Rangers on May 25, but has gone 7-1 with a 2.10 ERA in 14 starts since. Hernandez had an even hotter stretch in midseason last year when he went 9-0 with a 1.40 ERA over 14 starts from June 17-Aug. 27, including his perfect game on Aug. 15.
The 27-year-old said he feels much like he did last year at this time.
"Yeah, I feel pretty good," he said. "Some days I don't have my best stuff, but it feels pretty similar."
Mariners: Franklin's struggles at the plate continue
After a torrid start to his rookie campaign, second baseman Nick Franklin is hitting below .200 in July and August. Prior to that stretch, Franklin was hitting .295 over 31 games. His 10 home runs rank fourth among American League rookies.
"When young guys get up here, you're going to be tested to see if you can hit a fastball," said Thompson. "If you can't, you're going to keep getting them. Well, he's a pretty good fastball hitter. Now all of the sudden, word gets out and they're throwing breaking balls in fastball counts and he has not really made that adjustment yet. That should come with time."
Rangers: Ogando may not start against Astros
The inflammation in pitcher Alexi Ogando's right shoulder's hasn't subsided and may prevent him from making his scheduled start on Monday against the Astros. Ogando is seeking a second opinion from Dr. James Andrews after receiving a CAT scan from Dr. Keith Meister on Wednesday.
Ogando has already been on the disabled list twice this season. He was sidelined from May 16 to June 5 with triceps tendinitis and, after making just one start, again from June 6 to July 23 with inflammation in the shoulder. This time the inflammation is affecting a different area.
If Ogando is unable to make his start, the duty may fall to long-reliever Ross Wolf, who has pitched only one inning since July 28. He is 1-2 with a 6.89 ERA in three spot starts.
Worth noting
• Brad Miller has already hit five triples in 42 games to rank fifth in the American League and lead all AL rookies.
• Third baseman Kyle Seager has a career .374 (34-for-91) batting average at Rangers Ballpark.
• The Rangers have won eight of their last 12 contests with the Mariners.

Like most collectible areas, the glass market is slowly recovering from tough market conditions. Prices of smalls were off 20 to 40 percent because of the recession. Like the real estate market, glass experienced a bubble of unrealistically high prices. In this excerpt we look at which segments of glass collecting show strength and why the market is less regionalized than it was before the crash.

The secret to more beautiful eyes was once hidden in the Indonesian rainforest, but now it's been revealed to women the world over through Juara Skincare Eye Products. Tropical botanicals are gentle on the sensitive skin around the eyes, and natural moisturizers help plump up fine lines without damaging your skin.
It's not a myth that you need a separate moisturizer for your eye area. This part of your face tends to be thin, so it loses hydration quickly. Many people apply makeup and cosmetics to the eyes, which may contain harsh ingredients that dry out your skin. It's also true that the eyes get a workout all day long—every time you move these tiny muscles, you're increasing the chance of forming wrinkles. Juara skincare eye products combat dry skin and dark circles and are specially formulated to nourish your eyes.
Beauty products from Juara contain antioxidants and vitamins to keep your skin young and strong. Juara skincare eye products are made with extra care to eliminate chemicals that might irritate the thin skin around your eyes. Use Juara skincare eye products daily and you'll soon notice beautiful changes in your mirror.
Eye care beauty products are different from other lotions and moisturizers. If you tend to have oily skin, you probably still need extra hydration around the eyes to plump fine lines and wrinkles. If you tend to have dry skin, a skincare product specially designed for the eye area will be a welcome addition to your beauty routine. Juara skincare eye products will really make a difference.
Many cheap eye creams simply contain caffeine without giving a thought to balanced skincare. Juara Sweet Black Tea Eye Creme contains fermented black tea which adds a little caffeine and a lot of antioxidant power, improving the look of your eyes and the health of your skin.
Juara Sweet Black Tea eye crème combines a unique blend of moisturizers: candlenut oil, a prized beauty secret of Indonesians for centuries; rice bran oil, which contains essential fatty acids necessary for skin health; avocado oil, which strengthens the thin skin around the eyes; and illipe seed butter, a preferred substitute for shea butter and coconut butter. Each of these moisturizers is carefully extracted from its natural source before being added to Juara sweet black tea eye crème.
Because this is a rich eye moisturizer, some people may prefer to apply Juara sweet black tea eye cream right before going to sleep after thoroughly cleansing the face. This lets the product work through the night so your eyes wake up ready to face the day, and gives it a chance to completely absorb before applying other eye cosmetics. This Juara skincare product is free of added perfume and simply smells fresh and light.

In a nutshell, usage rate [{[FGA + (FT Att. x 0.44) + (Ast x 0.33) + TO] x 40 x League Pace} divided by (Minutes x Team Pace)] measures a player's level of participation in his team's offense. There are more knowledgeable APBR guys who might take issue with that description, but I think that's a fair assessment of the stat's import.
One of the things that strikes me as odd is the increase in Kaman's usage rate. This tells us that the Clips are finding Kaman when he's on the floor; Chris simply isn't converting his opportunities. "The shots aren't falling" -- and I'm paraphrasing here -- is how Ralph characterized Kaman's nightmare last night, and from watching Chris, that seems to be my impression. It doesn't take a genius to come to that conclusion. I mean, the guy is shooting .375 from the field. John So contends that Kaman merely isn't getting the ball where he likes it and that, too often, he seems to be too far from the basket or too far underneath. The only silver lining? Kaman's turnover rate is down to 14.9 from 16.4. Getting to 12 + change should be Kaman's ultimate goal, but right now landing his shots is the most imperative item on his agenda.
Elton's game UR last night was in the high-18s - around his season average - after a game against NOOCH in which he was the focal point of the offense. I still maintain that in a halfcourt game, Elton and Chris are inextricably linked. Of course, I have absolutely no empirical evidence to support this, but it seems logical that if Elton is drawing double teams on one block, then Chris is going to have more space in which to work on the other. And if Chris isn't on the floor, and Thomas is essentially playing the wing, and the Clips are playing smallball, then EB is going to draw the Prussian army, especially since the team isn't particularly adept from the perimeter. You've watched the games, you tell me: Haven't you noticed that, NOOCH as the exception, teams have been doubling EB off-the-ball as a matter of policy this season?
Other than EB's dropoff and Shaun's tick upward, the usage rates are very consistent with last year's numbers. But until EB gets above 20 and Chris' shots start to fall, I think the Clips are going to be only as efficient as their jump shooting. And we don't want that.

Do you need to game on all three outputs? If not, have the third be a DisplayLink usb one. If yes, perhaps a Matrox dualhead adapter to one of your 9800's outputs would be cheapest
Hey all, currently I have a 1920x1080 desktop monitor as well as a Sony TV (which takes 1080 and downconverts to 720) hooked up to a 9800 GT Ultimate (the Asus frankenstein one).
I would like to add hopefully one or two more monitors to the mix.
My regular work is dealing with GIS 2D/3D openGL stuff but I game a little with mostly indie stuff. Most visually intense game I play is Oil Rush.
What is the most sensible way to go about this?
My understanding is there's the following options:
- Xinerama with 2 cards
- Nvidia Twinview with 2 cards
- ATI Eyefinity
- a GTX 295 to run 4 monitors
- an NVS/Matrox
But I know Xinerama has limitations about 3D. Would this effect Oil Rush? How stable is it?
I could go Eyefinity but I have mixed monitors (one I might add is 1280x1024). Also, how good are the newest drivers on the 5770 and 6770 cards? I've had one ATI card about 8 years ago..
Or a GTX295. But I have a 650W PSU. I could underclock it but this seems silly.
I could also use an NVS but they seem massively underpowered and poor for games. Would adding one to my existing card using the rendering abilities of the 9800GT Ultimate with the display outputs of the NVS. So I could theoretically have 6 monitors with a quad NVS?
Do you need to game on all three outputs? If not, have the third be a DisplayLink usb one. If yes, perhaps a Matrox dualhead adapter to one of your 9800's outputs would be cheapest
You can use two nvidia cards (adding another one to your existing Asus card if you still have an AGP or PCIe slot left), or a dual-GPU nvidia card like 295 to replace your Asus, and then configure TwinView in NVidia X Server Settings. That's probably the easiest way.
Dual GPU with displaylink is not yet really supported. I think it'll be xinerama only for current X server versions if you want to use screens connected to both displaylink and nvidia. Also you would require really cutting-edge code to get it working a bit.
Those are some interest additional thoughts... hmm. Never thought about those DisplayLink devices. Big question is if support exists for them...!
I'm also heavily considering a Matrix multihead box. Seems the best and most stable way, but not necessarily the cheapest.
Does the Nvidia Twinview avoid some of the problems with Xinerama?
Yes. TwinView fakes one GPU with three monitors, when you're in fact using two GPU's. This solves most of the problems with dual GPU, including the 3D acceleration.
Kepler supports up-to 4 monitors. But there's only gtx680 released and I really don't know are four monitors supported under linux and will lower end keplers support four as well...
It is possible to have 3 monitors with full acceleration using two NVidia SLI capable GPUs and BaseMosaic option. Some drawbacks exist though, so be sure to research thoroughly before spending any money. Until Kepler comes to lower end graphics cards, the only truly multi-monitor capable NVidia GPU is the GK104 in the GTX 680.
A cheaper alternative to the Matrox DualHead2Go/TripleHead2Go is the Zotac DP2HD (also available with mDP).
Eyefinity is limited to the same resolution for all monitors, but that only comes into effect when you want to game across them all. Having a desktop with mixed resolution is no problem.
I think the answer on both questions is yes. Nouveau already supports 4 monitors with the latest code (or attempts to support it) so it'll definitely be easily possible for the nvidia team given the amount of code that's shared with the Windows blob. Also we've no reason to think that low-end cards will lack the support, unless your card doesn't have 4 outputs (there also exist 680's with only three ports).

The UT 2004 results are impressive.
Btw: Am I the only one missing horizontal graphs in pts?
Well, I guess it's to be expected, it's only been released for a day or something. Hopefully in the future, they will be faster.
Michael, for the games that didn't work, was it because of the unavailability of S3TC (libtxc-dxtn) ? Because the same games that didn't work here didn't work with the OSS driver on my Radeon 9200 SE until I added the S3TC support library.
The UT 2004 results are impressive.
Btw: Am I the only one missing horizontal graphs in pts?
I guess the radeon driver did not everything fglrx did in UT2004. At least for S3TC textures you have explicitly install libs3tc, since mesa does not contain the code for licensensig reasons. And UT2004 uses s3tc everywhere...
Hear hear! I kept turning my head 90 degrees to read the legends on the bottom. It would also make more sense to use colors, with one color for the MESA driver, and one for the fglrx driver, then grouping them by card type.
X1300 fglrx ==================================
X1800 flgrx ================================================
More compact, more readable, and easier to compare. This is personally the biggest weakness of the Phoronix reviews, the lousy graphs and lack of color use.
Interesting review though, and makes me hopeful that my X1650 will be a reasonalby fast card one day, certainly enough for Compiz and some games with my kid as he gets older.
I'm not sure why everyone is so disappointed at the "poor" performance. I would say the benchmarks for the x1800xl are at least what I consider to be playable. I think it's amazing that an open source driver can extract this much performance out of these cards at 1920x1200!
I own a 4870 and it's really lame that we have show-stopping bugs like the checkerboard of doom in the latest proprietary drivers. I for one can't wait for the day when I can play games with an open source driver.
Actually the graphs was ordered as
X1300 fglrx ==================================
X1800 flgrx ================================================
which I felt was very confusing, as this suggests that you should compare the MESA with each other and not MESA vs flgrx.
Otherwise I think article was perfect! I love the Phoronix articles!
That's what I was trying to get across, that the graphs could have used color, orientation and better organization to showcase the differences more easily. Since we read (most of us) Left to Right, it would make sense to have the graphs laid out in the same orientation. Those big, phat^Wfat, wide bars drive me crazy.
Now don't get me wrong, I enjoy the articles and I think they're doing a great service here for all of us OSS fans and AMD/ATI fans. I purposefully picked this hardware becase of the open docs. Sorry nVidia, you're not in the running...
how about some compiz benchmarks? I find compiz much smoother on MESA as compared to FGLRX
Nexuiz in fact is very sensitive to how the VBO support behaves. At least some months ago on my Radeon mobility 9000 with the radeon driver it would usually help to disable usage of VBOs in Nexuiz (gl_vbo 0). There are plenty of values to try:
Plus notice that without GLSL support Nexuiz will have most "advanced" effects disabled, running with a fixed-pipeline "fallback". At least my Radeon 3850 is actually *slower* with that fixed-pipeline renderer than with the visually more advanced GLSL renderer, so results are easily skewed depending on what capabilities a driver offers.gl_vbo : "3" ("3") : make use of GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object extension to store static geometry in video memory for faster rendering, 0 disables VBO allocation or use, 1 enables VBOs for vertex and triangle data, 2 only for vertex data, 3 for vertex data and triangle data of simple meshes (ones with only one surface)

Dodgers hope to get back on track behind Ryu
Off to hot start in Minors, Bulter to make big league debut at home
There's something missing, but not something Dodgers manager Don Mattingly can point to and not something he can easily correct.
It's a feeling.
The Dodgers have lost six of their last eight games and went 4-6 on their 10-game homestand. Last June, the Dodgers began a historic 42-8 run. So far this season, they've yet to put together a winning streak longer than three games.
"When we were able to start putting things together last year, you felt a real true team focus and just a collective group," Mattingly said. "When guys start throwing all the numbers out, all these things, the one thing you can't measure is the feeling you have as a team when everybody's playing together, and you feel like everybody's going in the right direction."
The Dodgers will look to get that feeling back Friday in Colorado, where they'll begin a seven-game road trip. The trip could serve them well. The Dodgers are 18-11 on the road this season -- compared to 13-18 at Dodgers Stadium -- and they'll send their most effective road warrior to the mound on Friday.
Left-hander Hyun-Jin Ryu (6-2, 3.09 ERA) will get the nod for the Dodgers after picking up back-to-back home wins. He's been even better on the road this season, going 4-0 with an MLB-best 0.56 road ERA and striking out 32 batters in 32 innings. Ryu will take the mound against an unknown force, Rockies right-hander Eddie Butler, a top prospect who will earn the call from Double-A for his Major League debut.
Colorado, too, has been straddling the .500 mark this season, sitting in third place in the National League West behind the second-place Dodgers. Both teams are looking to get on a roll.
"The longer it goes in the season, the harder it is to get on that roll," said Dodgers catcher Drew Butera. "You like to do it right off the bat, but sometimes you don't get it until later in the year. As long as you get on a roll -- that's the main thing."
For Mattingly, it's a matter of recapturing a team feeling and not so much an issue of talent.
"I don't think it's that difficult," he said. "I say things like that aren't difficult, because I see these guys hit, and I see [Clayton] Kershaw, and I see [Zack] Greinke, and I see Hyun-Jin Ryu, and I see [Josh] Beckett has kept us in every game, and Danny Haren has kept us in every game. So that to me is not something that should be difficult, necessarily, but it has been to this point.
"We don't really seem to be gaining traction at this point. We haven't really gotten the team rolling yet. That's the one thing that I think we haven't felt."
Rockies: Butler to make debut
It's time.
The Rockies, looking for a spark of their own, won't wait any longer for their No. 2 prospect to develop. Butler will start Friday, earning the call from Double-A Tulsa.
Butler will look to get the Rockies back on the winning track after a season-high seven-game losing streak and after the team held a players only meeting Thursday.
"I just want to come in and be a part of the team, give the guys a chance to win," Butler said. "If I go out there and pitch six innings and have us in the ballgame, that's going to be a great day."
The right-hander, who is 4-4 with a 2.49 ERA in 11 starts at Double-A, is starting in place of struggling left-hander Franklin Morales, who was demoted to the bullpen with a 3-6 record and a 6.03 ERA.
Eddie Butler is the third Rockies player to make his Major League debut this season, joining Tommy Kahnle and Chris Martin.
While the Rockies have high expectations for the 23-year-old's future, they aren't expecting too much too soon.
"We're not asking him to come in here and be the savior of the staff at his age," said Rockies manager Walt Weiss.
"He's been very dominant at times over the last couple of seasons. We knew he was a big leaguer, it was just a matter of when -- and the time is now."
Dodgers: Gordon looks to get going
Before a leadoff bunt single in the first inning of Wednesday's game against the White Sox, second baseman Dee Gordon had gone through a 7-for-39 slide and saw his average dip below .300.
Gordon isn't too worried, however.
"I think it's evening out, honestly," Gordon said. "I wasn't going to hit .340 the whole year. The good thing is I'm not panicking. I'm not making any dramatic changes or anything."
Gordon has been a sparkplug at the top of the Dodgers' lineup for most of the season, tallying an MLB-best 34 steals.
Gordon said he's optimistic he can avoid the prolonged slumps he experienced previously in his career.
"This feels different," Gordon said, "because in the past, I didn't know how to get out of it."
Worth noting
• The Dodgers' bullpen has been dominant of late, pitching scoreless relief nine times in its last 11 games.
• Dodgers right fielder Yasiel Puig has reached base in 36 consecutive games.
• Butler was a supplemental first-round pick in the 2012 First-Year Player, drafted 26th overall out of Radford University. Last year, he had a Rockies organization-best 1.80 ERA in 28 starts.

Curling brushes: the Low Down on Carbon Fiber
Posted on February 19, 2013 by Paivi
In an earlier blog post, we outlined the primary differences in curling brushes, with one of the first items mentioned being the material comprising the brush shaft. Typically brush shafts are made of carbon fiber or fiberglass, or some combination of the two. If we were to draw an analogy with cars, a 100% carbon fiber brush would be the Cadillac, while brushes with shafts containing fiberglass would be considered your basic Volkswagon.

Antonym of prejack, postjack is the capacity, (exclusive to men), to think clearly, make responsible purchase decisions, refuse to comply with the suggestions of hot women, do math, and pass strip clubs without going inside. Typically a momentary, fleeting state that goes away a few minutes "postjack".
Postjack it's pretty clear to me how much I hate that fucking couch she made me buy, and how – frankly – I'd really like to strangle her goddamn cat… but the feeling usually subsides after a couple minutes, confusion sets in, and I have to go look for my calculator and a dictionary… wait, what was I talking about?

Can someone explain this DOSBox integration in a little more detail? When would DOS not be supported natively? When running on a non-x86/x64 arch? But don't you run Wine through QEMU in this case?
Phoronix: Wine 1.3.12 Brings Initial DOSBox Integration
Wine 1.3.11 wasn't too interesting as the inaugural Wine development release of 2011, but Wine 1.3.12 has been released today and it carries a bit more weight, such as an initial stab at integrating DOSBox...
Can someone explain this DOSBox integration in a little more detail? When would DOS not be supported natively? When running on a non-x86/x64 arch? But don't you run Wine through QEMU in this case?
Like Windows the file format used on DOS was a .exe (and the same for .NET). This just allows Wine to offload the handling of DOS executables to DOSBox if we encounter a DOS application. We have DOS code in Wine, but it doesn't work so well and especially on 64-bit not all 16-bit DOS applications can work because of the need for VM86.
Not sure why this is useful. If I wanted to run a DOS program in DOSBox, I would not run it in Wine in the first place, I would run it in DOSBox
Okay, I thought it might be that but the original explanation sounded different. The funny thing is that running a DOS application in Windows itself rarely works.
i really wish the wine developers would focus more on directx than on things that can already be accomplished in other software. dosbox does not need to be implemented into wine. i haven't really used wine in about 2 years but from what i noticed, it barely got any better since the last time i used it.
to me, games are 90% of why anyone would use wine in the first place - linux has a lot of pretty good alternatives to commercial applications but theres nothing you can do about games. the rest of the 10% would be stuff like the adobe products, MS office, itunes, etc (i don't own any of those so its not a biased thing). anyways, that being said, i have a very strong feeling that wine's fake directx is the reason why most gold or less rated games aren't working perfectly. if they can get the official directx (9, 10, and 11) to install flawlessly in wine then i would suspect the average game to have its rating improved (so from garbage to bronze, bronze to silver, silver to gold, gold to platinum).
imo, performance should come last. i would much rather be able to play a game or run a program without any wine-related glitches and sacrifice a little speed.
considering that all modern CPUs contain virtualization instruction sets, i feel like if virtualbox can get to installing a real directx before wine, it would be a much better choice for all purposes. sure its a bit more memory consuming but just dumb down the windows setup - if linux is the host, windows doesn't need half of the things it normally offers.
They already focus on Direct 3D. You can play some very demanding games with wine, that would not even start 4 years ago. Of course, you need the right hardware and the nvidia binary, but that's not entirely wine fault.
And hey, DOS also had some very good games! Wine could really shine as a windows legacy suppression layer in the coming years.

Okay so this is sort of similar to threads that have already existed, so if you want mods, you can shut it down.
However, I still think another movie thread isn't such a bad idea, when this one is less about straight reviews, and more about recommendations.
So has there ever been a movie that you have watched and enjoyed it so much that you have to make sure everyone you know has seen it?
I definately have.
So heres a few movies that I feel everyone has to give a go:
1. Kung Pow: Enter the Fist
I don't see how this movie got such bad reviews. It really is a great film.
Not only is it a parody of badly dubbed martial art movies, its also a bit of a self parody too.
Its weird, its wacky, and its just plain fun!
Watch it with some fun friends and you will have a great laugh.
(Booze is helpful here too!)
2. Shutter Island
This was a suprise film for me. I was expecting it to be bad.
It didn't look all too interesting at first, pretty generic actually.
But once the film starts gaining momentum, its actually pretty gripping and at parts very intelligent.
3. Austin Powers (All of them)
Who hasn't seen Austin Powers?
The first two are classics, and the third one, though a little underdone compared to the first two, actually does have enough fresh material to stand by itself.
The films definately should be watched together though, the films are just full of in-jokes.
4. Shrek
None of the sequels, just the first one really.
I've seen all of these films, and though the others are not the worst movies in the world, (just pretty unecessary really...) the original is just a lot better.
Original idea, good cast, great execution.
5. Kung Fu Panda 2
I like Kung Fu Panda, its a great film.
Though I am fairly biased because I love Jack Black in most of the stuff he does, (some people tend to hate him) you have to admit he's a good fit in this film, in fact all of the cast were.
Kung Fu Panda 2, doesn't suffer from Dreamworks usual curse of making a good movie, and then making terrible sequels, and you can easily see that the people behind this movie cared quite a bit about it, and put a lot of effort in, (its a shame the videogames never get the same treatment eh?).
It didn't go the cheap route, and just make it a souless forced comedy affair, in fact the movie didn't have many jokes in it at all and was actually suprisingly dark at points (acting more of a homage to the old kung fu movies rather than a straight parody the first one was).
Its not for everyone, I'll admit, but if you liked the first movie, you probably would enjoy this one as well.
6. The Shining
I'm not normally a horror fan, but this film is just a perfect example of how to do a horror film right.
Jack Nicholson was the PERFECT lead.
A fantastic actor that just slides into the role with no effort at all, (maybe he was playing himself! XD).
7. Scary Movie 2
The best of the series in my opinion, and if you have to watch one, just watch this one.
8. Drag me to Hell
I don't understand why people hate this movie.
People seem to expect too much from it, I guess, or they just misinterprit it.
As a horror film, its terrible, its not very scary at all, but in all honesty, this is Sam Raimi we are talking about here, its not supposed to be pure horror.
Its more funny and gross if anything, and thats sort of the point of it.
Its basically a more mainstream, modernised version of the Evil Dead films.
It does have some clever scenes, and it does shock you here and there, but its really a sort of film you just sit there, and enjoy.
The best horror films are the ones where you can sit there and mock the stupidity of the protagonist from the safety of the fourth wall.
This film has that, but it also adds some extra dark comedy to give it that extra spice.
Its not a film you can watch again and again, but its a good film to watch with friends (or family, as I did with my mom, the twisted woman was pretty much howling with laughter all the way through).
9. Rocky Horror Picture Show
Best Goddamn Musical of all time!!
Go see it! Now!
Tim Curry love here. <3
10. Reefer Madness (the musical)
Another excellent musical and my third favourite (second is Spamalot BTW, and the fact that this is not on DVD yet depresses me (because if it was, I'd have all 3 playing every friday or something. In a row! YEAH!!!)).
I think describing it would be spoiling it, so just hunt it down people!
I got more, but this should do for now! :D

JulesHairBlackCurly HairThick or Coarse HairI Have Really Thick & Curly Hair...that being said, this straightner actually works! It has some high heat settings so it definetely gets the job done in a short amount of time. However, the reason I give it a four is because if you don't use a really good heat protector product it will dry up your ends ( using the highest heat level)posted Jun 2, 2014Link to this post
Anna-sophiaHairBlondeDry HairCurly HairThick or Coarse HairThe BestI received this straightener as a Christmas present almost 2 years ago and have used it daily since. It's amazing, so many of my friends have used it as well with various types of hair and everyone loves it. It leaves my hair so straight, shiny and just healthy looking. I've got very thick, unruly waves and it works wonders, every single day. I've had so many different types of straighteners before and this is by far the best one I've ever had.posted Dec 11, 2013Link to this post

AndreaHairBlondeDry HairThis Would Have Been Great...I got this straightener before in the 1" blue model, and it was perfect for the year that I had it. But I lost it to a house fire, so I bought it again in this larger model because the one I had was so good. Now don't get me wrong, this is really great when it works. But after only a few uses, and treating it with great care, this one just started smoking right when I turned it on. I'm afraid there's some malfunctioning going on so I'm thinking I should send it in to the company, and hopefully the warranty holds. This was so promising, as I know it's worked for me before, so it's sad that the specific one I got had something wrong with it.posted Jul 23, 2013Link to this post

Tarika W.Loganville GAHairDark BrownThick or Coarse HairRelaxed HairHappy CustomerI was not sure which flat iron to buy when I first started looking for a ceramic one and reading the reviews. I am so glad that I chose this ceramic tourmaline flat iron. My hair comes out so straight and healthy looking when I use them. With any product you have to be careful not to use it in excess. Make sure you are putting a heat protectant on your hair before you use any product with heat and moisturizer and condition your hair if you want it to grow healthy. Invest in a ceramic ionic blow dryer as well (Andis is great). Always treat your hair with care.posted Aug 3, 2012Link to this post

CarolineHairBlackOily HairDry HairThick or Coarse HairWonder StruckI REALLY LOVE THIS STRAIGHTENER! I tried it for the first time at my friend's house and it lasted a whole WEEK without getting oily! The results lasted much longer than other straighteners because my hair's naturally very thick, so it tends to curl fast. But not this one, it actually stayed! I originally have a Conair and I had made my decision that they suck. But now I'm actually considering buying one - it's great for thick, coarse hair like mine! (:posted Apr 14, 2012Link to this post

(NewsUSA) - There is a daily struggle for people living with fibromyalgia -- an often very painful and debilitating condition. However, the stigma of whether it is a real disease still looms.
Despite fibromyalgia being a chronic pain condition affecting 10 million Americans, one in three adults surveyed by the American Osteopathic Association (AOA) has never heard of it or doesn't
consider it a real disease. The result, according to the AOA, is that many patients are afraid to address possible fibromyalgia symptoms for fear they'll be accused of "faking it."
"Fibromyalgia is a very common condition where the muscle, bone and tissue don't function properly with one another. But not a lot of people know about it," says Jennifer Caudle, DO, an AOA board-certified osteopathic family physician in Philadelphia. "It generally consists of chronic pain, sometimes debilitating pain, and often this pain comes with other symptoms of fibromyalgia -- such as fatigue, headache, insomnia, depression and anxiety. It can be difficult to get out of bed and go to work."
The AOA -- the professional association for osteopathic physicians, also known as DOs, like Dr. Caudle -- is encouraging better dialogue between patients and physicians. On average, fibromyalgia patients suffer through three years of symptoms and visit three doctors before receiving an accurate diagnosis. Dr. Caudle also notes the importance of support.
"Patients can live normal, healthy lives with the support of family and friends, as well as a physician, like a DO, who is willing to work with them one-on-one to effectively manage the condition through patient-centered, individualized care," adds Dr. Caudle, who recommends the following tips for fibromyalgia patients:
* Analyze your lifestyle. Keep track of your medications, therapies and exercise routines. Observe how your symptoms affect your daily life, and ask how potential treatments may affect you.
* Visit a DO. Osteopathic physicians are fully licensed, just like MDs, but their medical training gives them a unique perspective for treating fibromyalgia because they focus on treating the whole person. DOs also can provide osteopathic manipulative treatment, which involves using the hands to diagnose, treat and prevent illness or injury.
* Record your symptoms. Identify what symptoms you experience, when and how frequently they occur. Describe how you feel, and rate the severity of your symptoms. To stay organized and keep track, use the 60 Day Action Plan at www.osteopathic.org/fibro.
