The Art of Attentiveness in Zen and Yoga
In the traditions of zen and vinyasa flow yoga, we are asked to attend to the finer details of our body, breath, and mind. We gather our attention and devote it with precision to the careful alignment of an asana, to the incessant fluctuations of our mind, or to the qualities of our inhale and exhale. These traditions offer us a koan or seeming paradox: we will ultimately find greater ease in all areas of our living, we are told, if we learn to direct our attention in this way. Come explore the arts of attention in an afternoon of sitting, breathwork, and movement.
Workshop sliding scale
Price includes one free week of yoga at Zazen.

Everything I order from Overstock always gets here so quickly.....except books! Even tho this is the smallest of packages it is shipped by the USPS which as usual does a horrible job. Takes too long, difficult to see tracking and tracking info incomplete and arrives with damage, which I don't return because doesn't really affect the book. Please use UPS or FedEx and I would order a lot more books!
Rick Riordan delivers again. The Demigod series is much more interesting than his other ventures, and I'm ecstatic that Percy Jackson is back! I was hoping at the end of the last series that we would have more Demigod Adventures, and throughout the Lost Hero, I was overtly praying that PJ was somewhere around the corner, waiting to be discovered ... I was not let down, Thank the Gods (LOL).
i recomend overstock because i got my product really fast.
As soon as my daughter ripped of the covering, she tore into reading it and didn't stop until she had finished. She said it was the best book ever. (12 year old)
Excellent book, both our 8 and 12 yr old sons really enjoyed this book alot!

Phoronix: GNOME 3.11.2 Has Many Changes
The GNOME 3.11.2 development release made it out a few days ago and with it comes many new features as developers work towards the stable GNOME 3.12 release in March...
They won't, there's nothing that they could drastically change that would make the system fully dependant on systemd.
Look at the OpenBSD crew, they managed to port 3.10 over before most distros offered it in their repositories, and without logind support.
So we'll be seeing Gnome on non-Linux for a while yet
Looks good, on paper, but considering the piss poor state of the 3.10 branch in Debian I expect GNOME 3.12 to hit experimental broken into a half-usable installation for about 6 months after its release, like very other 3.x GNOME release.
How about first letting people build a .plist/xml list of pathways stored in a shared preferences locally that allows one to reference their own workflow of photos to be visible as Desktop wallpapers? That would seem obvious.Integrate Facebook photos in GNOME Photos
Status: in development.
Currently GNOME Online Accounts supports Facebook to access photos, also a GNOME Online Miner for Facebook photos has been developed using the GFBGraph library, which is a GObject library to access the Facebook Graph API. We should allow the user to view his Facebook photos from Photos.

They should. Gnome has made it quite obvious they like Systemd and what it provides. Gnome has no love for anything outside of Linux, apparently...
I have nothing against Systemd as an "init", but I hate their bully-methods to get it on every system.
Also, learn to ignore Honton. He's worse than BO$$, and that's saying something. If you try to ask him a direct question, he'll try to answer it with either unsupported data from his head (AKA opinions), or deflect it with a "Gnome > KDE" post (yes, on threads that have nothing to do with KDE) *shrug*
Did I say anything about hating Systemd or the way it was developed? No.
I said I hated their methods to force people to use it. There's a difference. I suggest you learn to read.
Also, I love how you slipped "Hating Systemd is like hating Linux" in there, like they have anything to do with one another, like the Linux kernel cares which init system you use. I've got a friend who uses an init system they wrote themselves in BASH. They recently had to switch to eudev though, since udev (DESPITE RUNNING JUST FINE) required Systemd to be installed on their computer.
Odd how a piece of software requires another piece of software that it doesn't seem to call to in any way...
The OpenBSD developers have already given up on that, because they know that Gnome's alleged aiming for portability is nothing like a blatant lie:http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux....9/focus=187553On OpenBSD we just dropped the features that need systemd for now. There was some talk about porting some
systemd interfaces but the path GNOME is currently taking made us stop for now since it seems clearer each
day that systemd will be a hard requirement at some point (not just 'some' interfaces). Even if they do not
call it a hard requirement, you will loose 1/2 of what makes GNOME interesting which would render it
useless to us.
So for now it works ok enough I would say, but in the middle term, I don't see any future for !linux+systemd in
GNOME. While some people are really opened about keeping fallback code for ConsoleKit or portability
patches, some don't care at all or are even getting in our way on purpose.
Don't get me wrong, Gnome can be dependent on what they want, I don't care. But they should just stop with the obvious lies about portability and how they are not dependent on systemd. If they don't have the balls to do that they should at least bring those developers back in the line that are actively going into the way of Gnome's self declared goals. They can't have the cake and it eat, but in their case it seems that the cake is a lie.

Caudalie's story starts in France at the heart of a vineyard with a husband and wife. They believe the vine and grapes contain exceptional powers for the skin and they use these ingredients throughout the Caudalie line. The vine produces Resveratrol naturally to defend itself, and this ingredient also provides powerful antioxidant benefits for the skin. The sap of the vine helps to erase dark spots to reveal a more radiant complexion. The Caudalie products are formulated for those who don't want to choose between effectiveness and naturalness, between glamour and ecology.
Caudalie Paris offers products that avoid harsh chemicals, artificial colorants, chemical preservatives, synthetic fragrance and chemical sunscreens wherever possible. |

Caudalie Paris Customer Reviews
not bad - 2/26/2015 3:13:25 PM The smell is pleasant. But it is oil, so it is greasy when you put it on for about an hour (so I use it after shower before going to bed). As for contouring, I'm not sure if it works or not. However, it does make your skin smoother and softer. The price is not bad.The best hand cream money can buy! - 1/31/2015 4:14:33 PM I tried this product when it was recommended by an associate at Sephoria. So glad that I took her advice. I have one in my purse, night stand, desk. It is worth the money. Never greasy and absorbs immediately. I gave my three sisters this item for Christmas and they are hooked!YOUTH IN A BOTTLE - 1/27/2015 9:05:17 PM Fabulous product!! I use this product nightly after my Caudalie Beauty Exilir and Vinoperfect Radiance Serum. This miraculous trio has minimized my facial pores, lightened my age spots and given my face a radiance that I haven't had for the last 50 years. Although these products are a bit pricey, they are well worth it! I try to purchase my products when the SkinStore offers its great 20% off sales. In my opinion, you can't beat the prices, quality or service!!!love this could not be without it - 1/27/2015 12:05:01 PM I work out at the gym my face gets hot and red i carry this with me and spritz on several times it is cooling refreshing doesnt sting and it cools me down so i can continue working outBest to Date - 1/11/2015 4:13:34 PM I've been searching for a balanced moisturizer for a couple years and I've finally found it!! I usually tend to break out with acne or blackheads when I try anything new and that did not happen with this product. It has a pleasant smell and nice texture. It's definitely a light moisturizer (I stress that it's light) that is great for my day regimen. Only slight negative is that you are only getting 1.3oz so yeah it's a pricier product.Caudalie Polyphenol C15 Anti-Wrinkle Eye Cream - 1/3/2015 10:03:12 AM I have used Caudalie products for at least the past five years with great success. I was excited that they added an eye product that is less expensive. However, this product has ingredients in it that are too harsh for the under eye area. Spend a little more money and get a better eye product. Or try a different brand. Caudalie should return to the "drawing" board with this product.GREAT VALUE - 11/22/2014 8:32:07 AM I am in my 70's and have very dry, sensitive skin. This trio of products did an excellent job of gently cleansing and moisturizing my skin without irritating it. VERY SATISFIED WITH THIS PURCHASE!!Best morning eye cream I've ever used! - 11/22/2014 7:10:48 AM This eye cream is perfect! Since I've been using it, the lines around my eyes are microscopic and I'm 60. A friend just asked me if I had work done because I have no lines - I credit SOS Morning Eye Rescue!Made a Difference Right Away - 11/14/2014 6:05:45 AM The area around my eyes was developing so many lines, including droopy vertical lines, and this product made a difference overnight. I have continued to use it twice a day for about 3 months, and it really works; the problem area is greatly diminished and the lines are now barely noticeable. I only use a tiny amount of product, patting it on with my ring finger, and that's all it takes. Although it is expensive, I will continue using this product.Only con is the cost - 11/7/2014 4:26:02 PM This is my favorite moisturizer ever, and I've been through tons of them. This is the first one (even compared to La Mer) where I find myself 12 hours later still stroking my cheek like a kitten. -
Learn More About Caudalie Paris
See our Q&A with Mathilde Thomas, Co-Founder of Caudalie.
In 1993, the Thomases met Professor Joseph Vercauteren, a well-respected professor of pharmacy who is considered a leading expert in polyphenols. These chemicals are naturally present in wine grapes and in other plants, where they are used to protect cells from the intense energy of the sun. After discussing his research with the Thomases, the professor agreed to work with them to develop their line of topical skin care products produced from the grapes grown in their family vineyard.
Although 20 years have passed since that first meeting between the founders and chief scientist of Caudalie Paris, the brand remains completely devoted to their original goal--to make highly effective therapeutic skin care products using the finest natural ingredients to benefit both the planet and the men and women who used the formulas. Today, the grapes that serve as the basis of the products in the collection are still grown on the Thomas' farm and every product is manufactured with processes that are as green and sustainable as possible.
Named after a unit used to measure the quality of a wine's flavor, the Caudalie Paris skin care collection contains an array of products to address common concerns. Formulas are available to minimize signs of aging, reduce the prominence of skin discoloration, promote firmer skin in areas affected by cellulite and restore radiance to dull skin. Whatever your top dermatological skin care concerns are, Caudalie Paris can help you address them using the natural nutrients of wine grapes and cutting-edge pharmaceutical science.

Ken Jennings, 74-time JEOPARDY! champion and author of the new book MAPHEAD, knows a lot of stuff. But he doesn't know what might be inside one of Woot's notorious Bags O' Crap! Or he didn't, anyway, before opening this one in our studio recently.Watch our complete conversation with Ken on our blog, here!http://www.woot.com/Blog/ViewEntry.aspx?Id=19443
I wasn't jealous of Ken's success until now. I haven't got a BOC in a while. I guess it's true what they say; the rich get richer...
OWS! (occupy woot street)
"So uh, do I have to take all of this home?" Classic response to receiving a Box of Cobwebs And his crap was cooler than all 3 I've received combined. How come he didn't get any baby clothes/products? At least in my experience, it's not a Box of Cobwebs w/out a fleece baby blanket.
Answer: A WOOT Box of Crap. Question: What is worth more than your total Jeopardy winnings? Great vid! Priceless. :-)
I don't know what my penance might be for breaking Box of Cobwebs Commandment II, but that was lots better than most of my recent Box of Cobwebs. Boohoo.
That kept my attention...congrats to Ken for getting a Box of Cobwebs
jimeezlady wrote:Answer: A WOOT Box of Crap. Question: What is worth more than your total Jeopardy winnings? Great vid! Priceless. :-)
Incorrect, I'm sorry, I'm afraid you did not answer in the form of a question.
I know something Ken Jennings may not... and that is that I know what is starting at Midnight, Central Time.
Lol, that was great! Who would've thought an uber-nerd like Jennings would have such a great sense of humor?
Ken, I don't think that Woot! would part with your giant head sculpture. They should at least let you take a picture of it for the family.
I'm sure Mr. Jennings knows that Ohio was the first, but not the only state to be carved from the so-called 'western territory.' Ohio was, specifically, the NORTHwest Territory prior to statehood.
That was a pretty good Box of Cobwebs he got there. Can't believe he wanted to leave it behind. Also, Ken has a dirty mind. Makes me like him more.
i hope my next Box of Cobwebs (if i ever get another one) is that cool!
Ken, I love you. Not in a stalkerish "change your address" way, but in a you get to do the coolest stuff and I respect you putting yourself out there taking risks and getting the reward kind of way. We miss you here at home. Keep up the good work, and get me that IBM "Deep Thought" wanna be computer's auto-graph. Dale
I'll take "4:50 of my life I'll never get back for $500" Alex
I'm not one to be jealous of another's success, I do however covet the monkey. Oh and by the way, the latest newsletter was creepy and entertaining at the same time - Now that's talent.....
As much as I enjoyed watching Ken Jennings open a Box of Cobwebs I also enjoyed him talking about his book at the beginning of the video. I facilitated a discussion about encoding and retrieval for my Educational Psychology class tonight, so I showed the part of the video to my class about how he pins information he learns to the map in his head. If we all want to be like Ken Jennings and learn loads of random information, we need to have encoding, processing, and retrieval skills like that!
If Ken Jennings is the new celebrity sponsor for Woot! I think Snooki should be the celebrity sponsor for Wine.Woot!
Now The Big Bang Theory needs to cover woot!.
Great interview and fun to see Ken Jennings' reaction to a Box of Cobwebs I don't think he was as anxious, giddy, and puzzled by his Box of Cobwebs as the rest of us because he didn't have to practice his finger-eye reflex skills, hope the internet didn't crash, and then have to wait for FedEx SlowPost to deliver the Box of Cobwebs
What is Who Gives A Crap for a thousand!
CLKite wrote:Incorrect, I'm sorry, I'm afraid you did not answer in the form of a question.
What is a Woot Box of Crap!
Wait! Why did they edit out the part where he discusses sitting in front of his monitor all day waiting for the Box of Cobwebs to show up in the Wootoff? Ah, right, he didn't. I didn't realize there was a celebrity Box of Cobwebs category. I should have spent all those wootoff hours getting famous.
all in all, still a pretty damned funny video. Thanks for sharing, woot!
that sounds like the most interesting book in the entire world
What!!? I was certain there would be a laptop, speakers, refurbished IPads, 1st Gen IPods, roombas and more in a Bucket of Candycorn. Soooo disappointed.
My first thought was "Bottle of Cognac?"
40 more minutes of KJ cartographilia on C-Span here: http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/Maph
Better than most bags of crap I've gotten. I'm vaguely jealous
That was quite enjoyable. I like and respect that dude a ton. Good to see he's human.
That headset is broken...
I think it's easier to become a Jeopardy champ than to get in on the Box of Cobwebs
I noticed a missing exclamation point and capitalization error in the square ad on the main page for this topic. It reads: JEOPARDY! champ! Woot columnist! It should read: JEOPARDY! champ! woot! columnist!
See, it just cheapens the entire Bag o' Crap experience when you give them away to celebrities without making them sit at a computer at o'dark-thirty frantically pressing the submit button incessantly in a wide-eyed zombie-like fugue-state for 20 minutes.
Once again, I live my life vicariously through Ken Jennings.
was that the worst Bountiful Overflowing Cornucopia anyone else has ever seen? I thought that was just piss poor. I'd say I feel bad for Ken but I'd be lying.

If anything, that beeyocee was an uncharacteristically GOOD one. Consider that the next time you see Wooters getting so excited about them -- or raging with such fiery indignation when they miss out on one. Ours is not to reason why.
I want a pleasure hammer.
Mr. Jennings, Please come keynote the esri dev summit. You would be treated as the geospatial geek royalty you are.

OGDENSBURG A former union treasurer has been arrested on embezzlement and forgery charges, state police said Wednesday.
Phillip J. Jessmer, 42, Waddington, was arrested at 1:45 p.m. Tuesday in connection with an investigation into the alleged theft of $7,616 through forged checks before he was fired from his post as treasurer for Civil Service Employees Association Local 185, which represents civilian employees at Ogdensburg Correctional Facility.
The alleged thefts are believed to have taken place from April 2010 to December 2011. Following an audit, CSEA officials reported their findings to state police last month, troopers said.
We became aware of some irregularities, and as is our procedure, we did investigate, CSEA spokesman Mark M. Kotzin said Wednesday from Syracuse.
We then turned the matter over to authorities to investigate, as also is our procedure, Mr. Kotzin said.
Mr. Jessmer held the treasurers position from July 1, 2009, until February 2012, Mr. Kotzin said.
State police charged him with one count of third-degree grand larceny of a value greater than $3,000, and eight counts of second-degree possession of a forged instrument in connection with checks that he fraudulently signed and cashed, troopers said. Both offenses are class D felonies.
Mr. Jessmer was arraigned in City Court and released under probation supervision, state police said. He is to appear again before the court Jan. 29 to answer the charges.

Snowberry Customer Reviews
Waste of Money - 9/25/2014 6:09:46 AM I rarely review anything but this product I cannot, in good conscience, let anyone waste their money on. It"s an orange, greasy awful product. It doesn't come off easily nor does it remove,clean or maintain "ideal skin pH". A bar of cheap soap would do a much better job and cost a lot less.Must've been bad - 9/17/2014 10:54:23 AM I was already in love with the serum and I was excited to receive this sample pack to try the moisturizers and eye. However, something was terribly wrong with the nourishing day cream. I had difficulty squeezing it out. Once I squeezed a little harder, this blue stuff came out, along with the cream. Hmm... Strange... I should have stopped there but wen't ahead and applied it to my face. It smelled awful. I can only imagine that it had somehow gone bad and the "blue stuff" was mold. I was so disappointed. It was pricey for the little samples and to have them be bad and not usable is unacceptable.Cleanse well and safe ingredients - 3/5/2014 5:10:55 PM I recommend to people with all skin types but are looking for gentle and safe cleanser. For dry skin, it's one of the best cleanser for not drying skin but cleanse well. It does hydrate skin but not leave any sticky or wax feeling. For oily skin, like me, I use it for morning face washing. Since oily/combination skin needs to clean pores and keep away from excessive oil, the morning face washing product should not be harsh but still can do the good job. And THIS IS the one! In addition, I check the ingredients with some cosmetic fact websites and found that these herbal/botanic based ingredients are highly safe! Moreover, use it with Clarisonic face washing machine, let the cleanser stay on your face for 40-60 seconds, the face will be refreshed and hydrated, yet soft and smell great!Actually a cleanser - 4/13/2013 2:56:11 PM The name of the product is misleading. This is actually an excellent cleanser. It does not foam very much and I thought it would bother me. But it did not. It cleanses really well but still gentle on the skin. It is just about the best cleanser I've used and I've been using it for months now. A little bit goes a long way.Good high zinc oxide product - 3/27/2013 11:59:51 AM I contacted Snowberry and they told me the zinc oxide content is 20%. Predictably, this is a very thick product and you really have to rub the product in. The product also leaves my face really shiny. BUT it doesn't leave a white cast (I have a medium, olive-tone complexion), blotting after waiting a few minutes does the trick, and it doesn't break me out, even though I have oily skin. I also love that it is free of chemical sunscreens and has naturally-derived, gentle ingredients.You will love this product if you have dry skin!No winter without my Snowberry Rich Day Cream! - 3/6/2013 10:15:41 AM I am a big Snowberry fan and discovered the brand in Germany five years ago. I only use Snowberry since then, no other brands and I am more than happy :-) I am using the Nourishing Rich Day Cream in winter when my skin needs that little extra and I love it! My skin feels so much better now, not dry anymore but gentle and soft and ready for the German cold :-)love it! - 1/16/2013 2:10:31 PM I love this sunscreen! All other natural sunscreens I tried before were hard to apply and make my face white as a ghost! The one is absolutely transparent and effective. Will order the SPF 30 one for summer use.A Month Later...... - 8/26/2012 12:14:30 PM I have been using the Snowberry products for over a month now and I still love them as much, if not even more than my initial review of the Snowberry Sample Collection. If I had to pick one of the products that I like the best, the Instant Deep Cleanser would be it. I use it at night with my Clarisonic and it leaves my face feeling deeply cleansed, toned and balanced. In the past I would use a product and perhaps like it for a few days and then start looking for a new product to try. This is not the case with Snowberry products, a month and a half in of starting to use them exclusively, my skin keeps on looking better and better! I am no longer on a search, I have found my Holy Grail of skincare.Sublime products......Superior Results!!! - 7/11/2012 8:48:44 PM I recently purchased this Snowberry set and was a bit apprehensive. I was unfamiliar with the brand and the set seemed pricey for the tiny-sized products. Not to worrry, I tried the products and love them. I have used a myriad of cleansers, serums and moisturizers and hands down the Snowberry products are far superior! The instant deep cleanser is absolutely sublime, my skin has never felt so clean and smooth without any dryness. The serum and moisturizer melt into my skin and my skin which tends to be combination/oily in the t-zone, is now balanced and radiates a healthy appearance. I have already ordered a couple of the Snowberry full size products and intend to order additional ones. I am tempted to toss all the products I had been using and exclusively use Snowberry! Thank you SkinStore for making Snowberry available. -

"Snowberry," says Founder and Cosmetician Soraya Hendesi, "feels wonderful, but it is really designed to combat the Six Enemies of Radiant Skin – the free radicals, inflammation, glycation, proteinases, dehydration and discoloration. Most women see their complexion transformed in less than two weeks. I think of it as essential food for the skin!"
See our Q&A with Soraya Hendesi, Founder of Snowberry.
It is not surprising. Snowberry contains no less than thirteen of the most beneficial skin renewal peptides. And where some brands proclaim a super-fruit, Snowberry offers twelve. Most skin care makes do with an antioxidant or two, but Snowberry brings twenty to bear, and where many use silicone or palm oil, Snowberry combines thirty of the world's finest natural herbal emollients.
Snowberry also represents Soraya's commitment to the environment. No product is tested on animals or contains any animal product, and each Snowberry product is certified carbon neutral, from Snowberry in New Zealand to every customer in Shanghai, London or New York. It may be what your skin's been dying for.
Despite Snowberry's youth, the brand has garnered much attention in less than a decade. In 2010, the brand earned the Silver Dieline Award for best branding and packaging as well as the runner-up for Favorite Brand at the Cosmeeting in Paris. Just a year later, Snowberry won the Discover Beauty Award at an ultra-competitive and selective trade show in Las Vegas. This international recognition is, in part, due to Snowberry's commitment to research. Because finding the ideal anti-aging formula for each product is no easy feat, Snowberry recognizes how important the research process is when developing its products. Working in combination with the University of Auckland in New Zealand, Snowberry is always looking for the next greatest technology for anti-aging skin care. As a result, you can trust that Snowberry will remain on the cutting edge, always enhancing its products as technology evolves. Moreover, many Snowberry products go through independent clinical trials lead by the IDEA Dermatological Institute in several European countries.
Like Snowberry, many brands rely on natural ingredients to develop products. But how Snowberry produces its anti-aging skin care line is unique. Essential oils, such as Cloudberry and Lingonberry Oil, are used in many skin care products, but Snowberry uses only refined and active versions of these oils. This selectivity makes Snowberry's formulas especially unique and effective. Discover how Snowberry, the award-winning, unmistakably unique New Zealand-based brand, can transform your skin care routine today. A younger, more radiant look is easier than ever to achieve.

thank you. to the family for telling this story. to the writer for capturing it so well. and for the paper, for printing it.
truth is, i'm just like "those people" both the article and comments are related to. i'm a lot like jonny, from the opioids in utero to the methamphetamine abuse i now attribute to a mental health issue + circumstances i couldn't face without it. i am just one of the lucky ones, who got out of the cycle before ODing or jail got me first.
i'm MOST disturbed by the chain of events leading to jonny's death and how much the prison F&ck#D up...
HOW does this prison justify such colossal errors like putting a petty-criminal in a high-risk cell block?
HOW does this prison justify the fact that an inmate was not in solitary as a punishment (at the least) following repeated attacks using HUMAN WASTE?!
HOW were Jonny's repeated attempts to get his medication denied?
i really hope someone is held accountable. his voice should be heard. thank you for lending it.

Mark Teixeira reacts after taking a strike from Athletics' Jerry Blevins in the eighth inning. / Ben Margot, AP
Doctors have recommended that New York Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira undergo surgery to repair the sheath tendon in his right wrist, which would end his season and deal another injury blow to the second-place club.
Teixeira, 33, expects to have surgery sometime next week and would require six months to fully recover.
"It's very tough," Teixeira said at a press conference at Yankee Stadium, "especially in a season where the team could probably use me. ... I really would have loved to be a part of this."
The team released a statement Wednesday that Teixeira underwent a contrast MRI that revealed the sheath tendon "had not adequately healed."
Teixeira said he has "no regrets at all" about the course he took in rehab.
Teixeira attempted to rehabilitate the injury, suffered during spring training, and returned for 15 games. But he suffered a setback during the team's recent West Coast trip and hasn't played since June 15.
The Yankees, already missing Kevin Youkilis due to back injury, will have to get by with retread Lyle Overbay at first base. The club would figure to seek a right-handed hitting complement to Overbay at first given the permanent absence of the switch-hitting Teixeira.

Nats have tough task ahead as Reds visit
Things aren't getting any easier any time soon for the struggling Nationals.
The defending National League East champions are coming off a mid-week sweep at the hands of the Cardinals, dropping them to 10-11 -- a sub-.500 record for the first time since the last day of the 2011 season, when they ended the year at 80-81.
And now the Nats get the Reds, who just finished off a series win against the Cubs and whose starting pitchers' collective ERA dropped to 2.99 after a 1-0 win Wednesday. Reds starters haven't allowed more than two runs in any game since April 14, a span of 10 starts.
"I'm impressed by it," Reds manager Dusty Baker said. "It means they're throwing a lot of pitches, though. I'm not impressed that we've had an equal amount of strikeouts on our side. That's unimpressive."
It'll be up to Nationals lefty Gio Gonzalez to try to right the ship on Thursday at Nationals Park in Washington.
Gonzalez had a meltdown in the fourth inning of his last start, against the Mets, after being given a 3-0 lead in the first three innings.
He allowed five runs with two outs in the fourth. Ten hitters came to bat in the inning.
Gonzalez, 1-1 with a 5.85 ERA this year, managed to escape the outing with a no-decision as a pair of Bryce Harper homers aided his cause.
"It's one of those things you can't explain," catcher Kurt Suzuki said. "[Gonzalez] threw some good pitches and started falling behind in the count a little bit. The curveball started popping up. He threw two over [Lucas Duda's] head. He threw a couple up to righties. It happened with two outs. ... It happens, you learn from it and move on."
The Reds struck out just six hitters as a staff on Wednesday against the Cubs, snapping a streak of six games with at least 10 combined strikeouts.
"We have to increase our road record," Baker said of the upcoming trip. "It's a very, very tough road trip we're about to go on."
Nationals: Lineup changes coming?
The Nationals' offense has been stagnant for the last few games, and manager Davey Johnson is trying to keep an even keel.
"All of them are so motivated and driven to be so good, it's kind of hard for me to berate them or get on them because I know they're grinding," said Johnson. "They're foxhole guys. They come to play. We've just to ride out the rough times. Last year we started … really slow offensively.
"Of course, we had some key guys out -- and we have a key guy out right now in Zim -- but the pitching was our mainstay early on, kept us in ballgames. It's showing little signs of life coming around, so now we just need to wait on the offense. It's tough waiting."
In an effort to jump-start the offense, Johnson sat veteran first baseman Adam LaRoche in favor of youngster Tyler Moore in Wednesday's series finale against the Cardinals, and suggested that Steve Lombardozzi could see more action soon (likely at third base, with Ryan Zimmerman hurt and rookie Anthony Rendon struggling) and Jayson Werth may hit lower in the order.
Lombardozzi is hitting .345 through 14 games this year.
Reds: Arroyo after another strong outing
Right-hander Bronson Arroyo will be the man tasked with keeping the Reds in the game against the tough Nationals lineup.
Arroyo, 2-1 with a 3.54 ERA, has been in a groove of late, throwing eight-inning outings in his last two starts.
• Reds starters had quality starts in nine of 10 outings on their recent homestand.
Worth noting
• The Reds' Sean Marshall was expected to throw in a rehab game on Wednesday for Triple-A Louisville. He has been eligible for activation from the disabled list since Tuesday.

VIERA, Fla. — A couple of years ago, back when I was working for a slightly different type of media outlet, I asked Jason Bergmann if he would be interested fielding questions from fans. The right-hander, never one to turn down an interview request, happily obliged and proceeded to answer a parade of questions that ran the spectrum.
This morning, I asked Bergmann again if he'd be interested in doing a similar thing for this new venture of mine, and again he nearly jumped out of his seat in saying yes. (Not that I expected any less of the guy.)
So here's the deal: Anything you want to ask Jason about the Nats, life in the big leagues, life away from the ballpark, whatever, leave them here in the comments section. Or you can email them to me at email@example.com, and then I'll forward them to Bergmann. Please keep the questions clean and respectful, because if they're not I'm just going to delete them anyways. (Oh, and for all you subscribers out there, don't worry. This doesn't count as your official question submission.)
I'll pick out the best of the bunch, send them to Bergmann and then hopefully will repost the answers within the next few days.
- JayB - Feb 23, 2010 at 1:47 AM
Ask Jason how this year's camp differs from each of his past 6 is it not? That covers Frank, Manny and Jim…..Reflecting back on past spring training camp from 2005-2006 to 2007-2009 to present day 2010 how does this roster stack up to the past years.
- Anonymous - Feb 23, 2010 at 1:56 AM
I'm curious, at what point in his baseball life did Jason become a full time pitcher? What position did he play most as well as pitching? Did he have any chance at professional baseball at a position other than pitching?
- peric - Feb 23, 2010 at 2:00 AM
What does Jason think the most important goal or milestone for this pitching staff should be this year?
- Anonymous - Feb 23, 2010 at 2:05 AM
Jason, did you catch any of MTV's Jersey Shore? Bring back memories, maybe recognize a friend or two?
- peric - Feb 23, 2010 at 2:13 AM
What did you and your wife like best about Syracuse? Least?
- Sean Hogan - Feb 23, 2010 at 2:14 AM
Jason's been in the Major Leagues for parts of 5 seasons. At that point, the mentality is often "at this point, you are what you are." What does Jason do to avoid becoming complacent?
- Positively Half St. - Feb 23, 2010 at 2:27 AM
Jason-Over the last 5 years, you matured as we all do through our 20s, but you also got a dose of real life that many do during that time. You realized that the realization of goals or dreams does not always happen in an uninterrupted straight line.How have you learned to deal with the extra obstacles toward reaching your goals, and have you enjoyed the real successes you have had, even if they may not match the hopes for an uninterrupted MLB career?
- Nervous Nats Fan - Feb 23, 2010 at 2:53 AM
How do you feel about your switch from starter to reliever? Are you more confident going into this season knowing your role? Also, I saw an interview last year where you suggested that you hate running. Do you have another activity that you like better to stay in shape?
- gus - Feb 23, 2010 at 2:56 AM
Jason,How do you view the time period between the end of baseball season and start of ST? Is this primarily an extended vacation where your body recovers from the stress of season? Or do you identify an aspect of your baseball game to focus and improve upon through exercise, repetition or additional coaching? If the latter, what did you focus upon this past off-season? Finally, is the option of Winter Ball something which is encouraged or discouraged by the club and how do you view it? Gus
- greg - Feb 23, 2010 at 3:07 AM
What's your favorite "non-baseball" part of being in training camp?
- Anonymous - Feb 23, 2010 at 3:19 AM
Jason–1. It seems to me years ago, before the DH, pitchers were expected to be something more than truly anemic hitters. Many could hit quite well. Livo is a throwback in that respect. DH seems to have changed pitchers attitude toward hitting even in the NL. Seems to me that even a little bit of production from pitchers could help a guy win more games or stay in the game longer. Why can't pitchers hit? 2. Nats pitchers, in particulary, seem constitutionaly unable to bunt well. If you can't hit you gotta bunt! Who gives the Nats bunting instruction in Viera and how long do you practice it? Is there going to be an emphasis placed on improving the pitching staff's bunting this year?
- greg - Feb 23, 2010 at 3:30 AM
sheesh. training camp? what the heck am i thinking? i've obviously been working too much. spring training.
- Anonymous - Feb 23, 2010 at 3:44 AM
For Jason:1. In this era of players staying in shape year round, how long does spring training need to be if you were in charge of such things? Do teams need to be down south for parts of three months?2. What are your housing options in Viera? Does the team provide meal money, apartment/hotel allowance?
- Chuckles - Feb 23, 2010 at 3:55 AM
Jason (via Mark):Being with an NL team, how often do Nationals pitchers take batting/bunting practice?
- Steven - Feb 23, 2010 at 5:02 AM
What do you think of Jim Bowden as a sportscaster?
- Craig - Feb 23, 2010 at 5:23 AM
What is your favorite pre-game meal?
- Avar - Feb 23, 2010 at 1:11 PM
First of all, thank you for taking the questions. Players like you that go so far out of your way to cater to us nerdy bloggers means a lot to us. Kind of restores your faith in the game.In a season where you go back and forth from Syracuse to DC, what do you do for housing? Do you have to start from scratch trying to find a rental with each move? Do you keep a place in one city or do some of the players sometimes pass rental places between them? Do you move the furniture every time or rent something furnished? Along those lines, is it hard to know what you can afford when your salary goes back and forth from $400k to $65 or whatever it is in the minors? That would drive me crazy. Seems it would be hard to buy something when you don't know how much you'll make or where you'll live! Obviously, we're rooting for you to stay on the 25 man all season and avoid this but I thought about it when you and several guys went back and forth so much last year.
- natsfan1a - Feb 23, 2010 at 1:37 PM
To follow up on the question from Nervous Nats Fan, how has your routine (general workout and pregame preparation) changed with the transition from starter to reliever? How about during the game (e.g., observing opposing hitters in case you will be facing them later)? (Okay, that's two questions, but I got carried away. :-))—How do you feel about your switch from starter to reliever? Are you more confident going into this season knowing your role?
- natscan reduxit - Feb 23, 2010 at 2:25 PM
Hi Mark and Jason… my question was spurred this morning by reading about the 'sad' and discouraging story of Jesus Flores' recovery. Jason, when a pitcher gets comfortable with one specific catcher, and then has to move arbitrarily to another, possibly unknown, one, how difficult is that move, both for the pitcher and for the catcher?
- VladiHondo - Feb 23, 2010 at 3:04 PM
First, thanks for the effort you make meeting the fans – I have at least 2 autographed baseballs you signed at Nats Park.What is your pitch repertoire, and how would you rank your pitches? Is there a new pitch or grip you're working on this spring? If so, can you show us (maybe via pix)?
- John - Feb 23, 2010 at 5:32 PM
April is the cruellest month for the Nationals. Since 2006,cumulatively, the team has gone 31-67 in April. Why? What can be done to be better prepared this year with the first nine games are against division opponents?
- NatsNut - Feb 23, 2010 at 5:57 PM
Thanks for doing this, Jason. I'd be happy if you stayed with the Nationals for your career. I actually have a question not about you. Do you still live in the house near Shawn Hill there in Viera? Still talk to him? How's he doing?
- Kathy T. - Feb 23, 2010 at 6:33 PM
Jason, thanks so much!I know so much of a pitcher's success depends on how his arm feels. I've seen pitchers wrapping their arms between innings, etc and wondered how much do you have to baby your throwing arm? What techniques do you use to keep your arm ready and loose during a game?
- luckyute - Feb 23, 2010 at 9:57 PM
How annoyed/pissed were you that you just missed a no-hitter against the Braves a couple of years ago?
- NatsGirl - Feb 23, 2010 at 10:35 PM
Jason: you're awesome for doing this–thanks!My question is, where do you see yourself in five years? Do you and Mrs. Bergmann have long-range goals/plans for your and her careers?
- Ross - Feb 23, 2010 at 10:52 PM
Is it hard to stay positive when you bounce between AAA and the majors? What do you see as the key to you sticking with the Nats for a full season? Also, where do you like to go out in DC?
- NatsNut - Feb 24, 2010 at 3:12 AM
Jason, I just thought of another question. During the offseason when a transaction is made, how do players hear about it? Do you get texts from the front office or do you hear about it like we do? Did you even see the Pudge Rodriguez signing coming and do you think the players reacted like we did (i.e. shock and awe)?
- nationals anthems - Feb 25, 2010 at 2:31 PM
Hi Jason – Which overdone stupid sports cheer do you hate more, "Ber-GY, Ber-GY, Ber-GY!" or "Ja-son Berg-man (clap clap clapclapclap)"? And what is the funniest insult any heckler has ever said to you?

The bar is pretty light but provides a comfortable grip.the collars are a pain so threw them aside and use standard two inch spring locks instead.The weight distribution feels nice and even and makes for proper form.Overall am satisfied and would buy this again.
For the price, you can't beat Overstock on this item. While the box it came in was beat up, that's not what you are paying for. Not only is this item cheaper than used versions, it comes with the sleeves as well. I purchased the dumbell bars also and have been pleased with this item.
Much like any of the other CAP Barbell solid bars I use it's made to last and worth every penny. I've used this bar 3-4 times a week for the past year and aside from having to lubricate the bearing from time to time because of squeaking it's been hassle free. I've also had no issues with the collars slipping off. I use this bar for closed grip curls and reverse curls (between 1st and 2nd bend) as well as inclined and bent row and it works great. Wider grips however are murder on the wrists as the bends are not that defined. I use their super curl bar for those sets. Overall this is a good solid piece of equipment that looks as if it will outlast me.
People try to send this item for more than i bought it for brand new and it was $$$. cheaper than the local sporting good store
This is just what I needed to complete my Olympic Weight Set

COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION Handcrafted at Melbourn Bros tiny brewery set in a time warp in Stamford using the old manually operated brewing equipment. finest organically grown barley and wheat are used to create a complex ale which having undergone primary and secondary fermentation with different yeasts and extended maturation, is taken to Samuel Smiths small, independent British brewery at Tadcaster. There it is blended with pure organic apricot fruit juice and a previously cellared organic brew - creating an unparalleled fruit ale. The smooth distinctive character of the matured ale serves as the perfect counterpoint to the pure organic fruit juice.

I am Lawrence, and I like to make custom props, usually IDs and other things that are 100% believable, and of course have fun with them and friends while cosplaying.
You can see them at www.lawrencebrenner.com and of course here in the props section.
I also like to shoot video at various events such as panels at conventions (see http://www.youtube.com/user/outlawlb) and help as I can.
If you want, I can shoot the video at your panel if I am at that convention.
I might not be able to help with sewing (yet), but if you want to have an ID that will pass as a real ID, just ask me.
My most famous cosplay is as Section 9's Saito.
Video of a Saito skit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yQQP1HbMtA
I like to cosplay as characters (or as versions of characters) that not everyone does, which is you will see me as a lot of secondary characters, but important ones who do important things.
I love to make new friends so please say hello!
I am also the creator of the Firefox collection "Cosplayer's Collection" https://addons.mozilla.org/collection/cosplayerscollection

Day Off, Buenos Aires
24 February 2006
Day Off, Buenos Aires
Curiously for a flash hotel, it turns out that theres a jet engine strapped to the roof immediately above my room. Or at least thats what it sounded like when I turned the lights out last night. In truth I suspect its the main air conditioning duct for the entire hotel (if not the entire city), but either way it woke me up hourly which was something of a drag.
Consequently, I started my day by changing rooms, which was a bit of a faff given that I take a somewhat Victorian approach to travel, unpacking entirely, putting things in drawers, hanging clothes up, stashing the suitcase out of sight and so forth. I ended up in the lift with armfuls of clothes, dropping socks, etc., which didnt greatly impress some of the other clientele.
Had breakfast followed by a compensatory nap before a party of us went down to River Plate Stadium where U2 will play next week. We are going to be doing not one but two live shoots during the course of the shows. Theres a shoot for Argentine television which is mostly concerned with the second night, and the final hurrah for the 3D cameras which are shooting both nights. There are eight digital 3D cameras being brought in (or more accurately eight pairs of cameras, given how the 3D effect works) which is about all the 3D equipment currently in existence. Its going to be quite a big deal so will benefit from as much advance work as possible.
River Plate Stadium is old but is a good shape, with an unbroken line of wrap-around seating which will look good on camera. The Rolling Stones stage was still loading out from last night and much detritus was lying about the place. We are bringing in a modest package of additional audience lighting and other lighting bits and pieces to smarten the place up and generally make it shine when seen through a lens. Getting the required permissions for placing the Big Lights and followspots looks like its going to be a chore and of course the weekend is upon us, but we remained positive and I am sure all will be worked out in due course.
I was a little tired from my jet engine experience and Allen Branton, our broadcast lighting pal, had flown in overnight, so a few of us decided on an early dinner. This would have been at about 6.30pm, so with Buenos Aires being well known as a late night city, we were not at all surprised to find ourselves the only people in the restaurant. In fact we were very probably the only people eating in the whole of the greater Buenos Aires metropolitan area. Presumably the wait staff thought we were having a late lunch. Early night.

Notes: The ORFs of Japanese eel follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (Fshr) and luteinizing hormone receptor (Lhr) were ligated into the pSI Mammalian Expression Vector. Fifty nanograms of this construct or the pSI Vector was cotransfected with 0.5ng of pRL-null Vector and 1µg or a cAMP-responsive firefly luciferase reporter vector into COS cells seeded in 60mm dishes. The next day, the cells were trypsinized, replated into 96-well plates and allowed to recover for 1 day. The transfected cells were serum-starved then treated with hormones six hours before being lysed and enzymatic activity measured with the Dual-Luciferase® Reporter Assay System. (3988)

Notes: To construct dystrophin minigenes, genomic DNA containing a mutation in dystrophin was amplified for exons 30, 31 and 32. The three PCR fragments were combined and amplified into one product. This overlap-extension PCR generated two minigenes which were then cloned into the pGEM®-T Vector and sequenced. After EcoR I digestion, the minigenes were ligated into the pSI Mammalian Expression Vector and transiently transfected into C2C12 cells for expression analysis. (3499)

Notes: This study examined both the human and the macaque counterparts of the Mas-related genes (Mrg), a family of G-protein-coupled receptors, in assays to compare function and structure. Clones of adenylyl cyclase type II (AC2) and Gαo were subcloned into the pSI Mammalian Expression Vector and used in the co-transfection experiments with the Mrgs. Receptor Selection and Amplification Technology (R-SAT™) was used for this comparison of the human and macaque Mrgs. Cells were plated in 96-well plates and transiently transfected with 57ng of 4 different plasmids including one of the Mrg receptors, 2ng AC2 and 30ng pSV-β-galactosidase Vector. One day post-transfection, ligands were added and after 5 days, the β-galactosidase expression was assessed. (3551)
pSV-β-Galactosidase Control Vector
Schirmbeck, R., Riedl, P., Fissolo, N., Lemonnier, F.A., Bertoletti, A. and Reimann, J.
Notes: To analyze whether CD8+ T cell responses can be generated from gene products translated from another reading frame from the primary ORF encoded by DNA vaccines, various constructs were made using the pCI Mammalian Expression Vector. These inserts included the small hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and its 3' untranslated sequence up to the hepatitis B virus (HBV) poly(A) sequence, which contains the sequence encoding the C-terminal Pol344–832 fragment; the 832 residue Pol protein, and the large HBsAg in an alternative reading frame and an unrelated in frame and out of frame OVA OVA18–385 fragment. In the case of the OVA fragment, the CMV promoter was removed and substituted with the SV40 promoter from pSI Mammalian Expression Vector. The immune response to both the primary and secondary gene products was determined using transient transfection of LMH cells followed by Western blotting or immunoprecipitation or counting CD8+ T cells from spleen cells.

pCI Mammalian Expression Vector
Tsunoda, T., Inokuchi, J., Baba, I., Okumura, K., Naito, S., Sasazuki, T., and Shirasawa, S.
Notes: Mig-6 cDNA was cloned into the pSI Vector to be used in cotransfection experiments with luciferase reporter constructs. The phRL-CMV Vector was added to the transfections to normalize the data generated by the Dual-Luciferase® Reporter Assay System in NIH/3T3 cells. (2632)
Fujikawa-Adachi, K., Nishimori, I., Taguchi, T., Onishi, S.
Notes: The two carbonic anhydrase isoforms were cloned into the pSI Mammalian Expression Vector. The proteins were each transiently expressed in COS-7 cells. (1128)
Brauner-Osborne, H., Jensen, A.A., Sheppard, P.O., O'Hara, P., Krogsgaard-Larsen, P.
Notes: Both the calcium-sensing receptor and the metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 were each subcloned into the pSI Mammalian Expression Vector. The estimated molecular weight of the two proteins are 56kDa and 55kDa, respectively. The proteins were transiently expressed in tsA cells, a transformed HEK 293 cell line. (1402)
Kupershmidt, S., Snyders, D.J., Raes, A., Roden, D.M.
Notes: The pSI Mammalian Expression Vector was used to express the 127kDa human ether-a-go-go-related gene (HERG) cDNA and mutants in Ltk- cells. The expression vectors were cotransfected with a green fluorescent protein vector to assess transfection efficiency and to select transfected cells by FACS for patch/clamp studies. (0865)
Perez-Vilar, J., Hill, R.L.
Notes: The authors used Promega's pSI Mammalian Expression Vector to express protein in COS-7 cells. (0559)
