30 Years Ago: Ozzy Osbourne Arrested in Memphis
A night of barking at the moon following his May 15, 1984 tour stop at Memphis' Mid-South Coliseum ended with Ozzy Osbourne in the drunk tank. He was arrested at 12:30 a.m. on a misdemeanor charge of public intoxication, after the cops said they found the former Black Sabbath frontman "staggering drunk" in Memphis' Beale Street entertainment district.
"See, I can't have a casual line of coke — that doesn't equate in my head," Osbourne later admitted. "I never went to the bar for a drink, I never smoked a joint. I used to go into a bar to get absolutely s–faced. It didn't really occur to me that other people were going there for a drink."
Osbourne was released from the Memphis jail some five hours later, after drying out, and was not required to return for a court appearance. He continued on with a tour in support of 1983′s 'Bark at the Moon,' visiting Nashville, Tennessee and Jacksonville, Florida, over the following days.
He also, unfortunately, continued ingesting a prodigious amount of intoxicants into the new millenium.
Sharon, who is also Osbourne's manager, said Ozzy was stoned through the entire early-2000s run of their reality television series, 'The Osbournes.' He then relapsed during the most recent Black Sabbath reunion.
"Alcoholism and drug dependency is a killer disease," Osbourne admits. "I went to two rehab places and then I still went out again. And then I stopped again and then I started. I have accepted I have a problem with drugs and alcohol. That's a big stepping stone, you know. I'm very lucky that I'm still alive and I'm also very lucky I can still put two words together."

New MGM M Life Game on FB - Earn Resort Credits In Las Vegas
Last edited by widgit; 01-18-2013 at 01:49 AM..
We've heard your feedback and are continuing to build a better Slickdeals. Click here to check out the updated site.
Dont mean to break it to anyone, but I have been playing this for the past 4 months, I think it came out 5 months ago. The prizes are real, I have enough for a few nights in a suite at Mandalay Bay, Monte Carlo, F&B, all kinds of stuff. I think it was posted on here months ago and that is how I found it.
just started after this thread. already at 1k points which is 1/7th to a hotel room
Thanks Totally FREE food/groceries every year since 2007 with Beer Co. rebates!
Is there any good way to advertise yourself as being open to friending on FB for the extra chips here? |
If you're going to play this game, I would HIGHLY suggest to join this face book group "MyVegas Friends and Deals" & "MyVegas Friends." I started playing back at the end of September and joined the group maybe at the end of October. I could have leveled up faster and gained more loyalty points if I had heard about the group in the beginning. There are a lot of friendly individuals that give out tips on the the fb group wall, but there are also a few documents under "files" underneath the banner. They will basically tell you which games to play, the betting strategy, what to stay away from, etc. Extremely helpful if you are serious about racking up some loyalty points/gold. I have put in over two months of work, playing everyday through out the day at work (letting it run in the background) and have accumulated 113,000 loyalty points and I am level 85. Other players in the game have lower level and much much higher loyalty points. Note, I never bought coins to play, just used all the coins I had for the day and quit till the next daily bonus. Might be best to make a separate FB for this game because it sure will spam your wall. Lastly, in the FB group, there is a thread for individuals that are looking to be added in the game which in return will give you more of a daily bonus for having a certain amount of friends. Sorry for such the long post, but I'm trying to save others some time from my mistakes. Best of luck to you all!

Plasmapheresis is done to exchange plasma in the blood. Plasma is the liquid part of the blood that does not contain cells. Once the plasma is removed, fresh plasma or a plasma substitute is added back to the blood.
Plasmapheresis removes autoantibodies from the blood. Autoantibodies are proteins found in plasma. They mistakenly attack your body's own tissues. In some cases, this procedure is used to remove toxins or metabolic substances from the blood.
Plasmapheresis is used to treat the following:
Problems from the procedure are rare, but all procedures have some risk. Your doctor will review potential problems, like
Plasmapheresis may not be appropriate for people with certain clotting disorders.
Leading up to your procedure:
The day of your treatment:
Anesthesia is not needed for this procedure.
You will be asked to lie in a bed or sit in a reclining chair. Two needles attached to a catheter tube will be inserted into veins. In some cases, a needle will be inserted into each arm. For others, one needle may be inserted into your arm and the other into the opposite foot. If the veins in your limbs are too small to use, a long-duration catheter will be inserted. It will be placed in a vein in your shoulder or groin area.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Blood will be taken out of your body through one of the catheter tubes. It will then go into the apheresis machine. Once in the machine, the blood cells will be separated from the plasma. The machine works in one of two ways. In the first method, the blood cells may be separated from the plasma by spinning the blood at high speeds. The second method uses a special membrane. The membrane has tiny pores that only the plasma can pass through, leaving the blood cells behind. The blood cells will be mixed with replacement plasma or a plasma substitute. The new mixed blood will then be returned to your body through the other tube.
You will be asked to rest for a short period of time.
You may experience some discomfort when the needles are inserted. The procedure itself is painless.
When you return home, do the following to help ensure a smooth recovery:
Improvement can occur within days or weeks, depending on the condition being treated. Benefits usually last for up to several months, but may last longer. Over time, autoantibodies may again be produced by your body. Because of this, plasmapheresis is mainly used as a temporary treatment.
Call your doctor if any of the following occurs:
If you think you have an emergency, call for medical help right away.

Cincy's Reynolds steps in to face Milwaukee
Brewers' Estrada looks for return to form after frustrating outing
Reds rookie left-hander Tony Cingrani was scratched from his Sunday start because of a lower right back strain he sustained during his previous outing, and Greg Reynolds will take his place in the rubber match against the Brewers at Great American Ball Park.
Cingrani threw 3 2/3 innings against the D-backs before exiting on Tuesday, and his Friday bullpen session was cut short when he felt soreness after just 12 pitches. Reynolds arrived in Cincinnati on Saturday from Triple-A Louisville, and he will take the mound Sunday to try and win the three-game series for the Reds.
Reynolds will be pitching on his regular rest.
"We're all about routines. It definitely makes a difference when you stay on schedule. If you have a couple of extra days sometimes, you don't feel as sharp. This is right on schedule."
The 28-year-old Reynolds was drafted No. 2 overall by the Rockies in 2006 and is 12-3 with a 2.42 ERA this season at Louisville. He tossed a complete game against Rochester on Tuesday, allowing just one run on five hits.
He pitched in the big leagues for the Rockies in 2008 (2-8 record, 8.13 ERA) and 2011 (3-0, 6.19) and made one start this season for the Reds. The right-hander took the loss against the Giants on July 23 after throwing five innings and allowing five earned runs on eight hits.
The Brewers will counter with Marco Estrada, who has not seen the Reds this season. In eight career appearances against Cincinnati, including four starts, Estrada is 1-3 with a 4.24 ERA. In 34 innings, he has allowed 30 hits and nine home runs -- the most of any team he has faced in his career.
The 30-year-old right-hander opened August with two solid starts, but in his last outing on Monday, he took a no-decision after allowing four earned runs on eight hits in six innings against the Cardinals.
Estrada was frustrated after the Brewers' 8-5 loss, especially about a sixth-inning pitch that resulted in a two-run Jon Jay home run.
"I kept throwing him curveball after curveball, and on the pitch before, it looked like he took a really good swing, but he fouled it off," Estrada said. "That's when I'm like, 'OK, I need to switch it up.' You know, they called another curveball, and inside my head, I didn't want to throw it, but I said, 'OK, let's just make a good pitch.' The pitch wasn't terrible, but he had just seen so many. When you see the same pitch over and over, eventually, it's going to get hit. That's what happened. ...
"It's just really frustrating right now. I keep thinking about that pitch over and over. I wasn't convinced with that pitch."
Reds: Bruce set to return Sunday after Saturday rest
Jay Bruce was out of Dusty Baker's lineup Saturday, but said he will be back for Sunday's series finale against the Brewers.
"This is it, pretty much, with the stretch of games we have left and going on the road trips to St. Louis and Pittsburgh. There's really not any other opportunity to get a rest day," Bruce said. "[Baker] told me to take advantage of this one."
The outfielder is hitting .266/.322/.480 this season with 24 home runs, 34 doubles and 81 RBIs. Bruce went 0-for-4 in the series opener Friday and is 3-for-19 on the homestand. He has just two home runs in August, coming on back-to-back days, Aug. 6-7.
Brewers: Davis extends hitting streak to 10 games
Khris Davis is making the most of his late-season opportunity with the Brewers.
The 25-year-old outfielder extended his hitting streak to 10 games with an RBI double in the first inning Saturday. Davis -- starting regularly in left field due to Ryan Braun's suspension -- is hitting .392 (20-for-51) in August with six home runs and 14 RBIs in 17 games.
Davis was selected by the Brewers in the seventh round of the 2009 Draft, and he is hitting .338 with eight homers and 17 RBIs in 39 games in his first big league season.
Worth noting
• The Reds lead the season series against the Brewers 9-6, including a 6-2 mark at Great American Ball Park.

Blackley ready to face former club in Rangers debut
Southpaw dealt by Astros squares off against Cosart in middle game
When Rangers starter Travis Blackley toes the rubber for Tuesday night's middle game, he'll go up against some familiar faces playing for Texas' in-state rival.
Blackley was traded by the Astros to the Rangers on Aug. 14, less than a week after designating him for assignment.
The lefty went 1-1 with a 4.89 ERA and 29 strikeouts in 35 innings before Houston's bevy of Minor League callups eased him out the door.
"[Blackley's stuff] was good at some points, and it was not good at other points," Astros manager Bo Porter said. "He's a guy that has a good breaking ball. You look over the years, he was able to get out righties and lefties.
"You look at his numbers from our standpoint with our ballclub, it just got to the point where we had some young guys that we wanted to bring up and we wanted to give those innings to, which made him expendable."
The trade has put the 30-year-old Australian in a whirlwind, from the doldrums of an August in last place to competing for a roster spot on a playoff contender.
"It went from couldn't wait for the season to be over to don't want it to end. It kind of felt like that was a really long Spring Training or something like that," Blackley said. "It was good when you were pitching well, and then you have a couple bad ones in a row, [you] try to pull yourself out of that hole or you don't get put in a game for 10 days. It's tough."
Houston is used to this by now, facing former ace Bud Norris a day after dealing him to Baltimore at the Trade Deadline three weeks ago. Norris beat the Astros that day, but Tuesday night's situation is a bit different.
Blackley hasn't started since contributing to Oakland's torrid run to the postseason last fall, serving as both the A's No. 5 starter and a spot starter from June through October of 2012. Even on a young Astros squad that has shuffled the rotation and actually expanded to a six-man rotation at the beginning of August, Blackley never got the same chance.
"Obviously, it's a great opportunity here and I'm looking forward to being a starter again," Blackley said. "That's what I wanted to do all year and I wouldn't get an opportunity to do it over there, so I'm looking forward to showing them what they missed."
The Rangers rolled to a 16-5 win in the series opener on Monday night, scoring 11 runs in the third inning.
Astros rookie Jarred Cosart awaits in the rematch. The righty has opened his career with a sterling 1.15 ERA through six starts and 39 innings. He's only 1-0, though, since the offense has only provided an average of three runs per game for him.
Astros: Corporan exits after foul tip to mask
Astros catcher Carlos Corporan left Monday night's game against the Rangers with an apparent head injury after getting hit with a foul tip.
The incident occurred in the third inning on the third pitch of Alex Rios' second at-bat. Corporan finished the inning, but was replaced behind the plate by infielder Jake Elmore in the bottom of the fourth. It was Elmore's first Major League appearance at catcher. He played one inning as a catcher in the Minor Leagues in 2010.
Rangers: Berkman not expecting August return
Designated hitter Lance Berkman, who has been on the 15-day disabled list since July 7, said he doesn't expect to be activated until Sept. 1 when the roster is expanded.
Berkman, who is dealing with inflammation in his left hip and a chronic sore right knee, said he is willing to wait that long even though he's ready to be activated now.
"In a perfect world, Sept. 1 would be tomorrow," Berkman said. "But it's not. The situation is a difficult one for the organization. The roster, the way it is configured, doesn't lend itself to a change because it would leave us short in other areas. The best thing for us is to wait until Sept. 1, unless somebody gets hurt."
Worth noting
• Astros manager Bo Porter on not having to face Yu Darvish in this series: "Isn't that great news?" Darvish has twice come within five outs of no-hitting Houston this season, most recently on Aug. 12.
• The Rangers have won six straight and seven of their last eight against the Astros.

FRC to ask county for $5 million 'advance' on tax revenues
Linda SatchwellFaced with a cash-flow hole of $1 million and growing, Feather River College is taking the unprecedented step of asking the county for an advance on its tax revenues.
At a special meeting of the Feather River College board of trustees Thursday, Sept. 2, college president Dr. Ron Taylor said he has looked into the legality of going to the county for financial assistance. According to Taylor, under the California Education Code and the state constitution, the district "can ask the county treasurer for an advance of funds against anticipated taxes in order to meet cash flow needs."
Because the state has not passed a budget in a timely manner, FRC is struggling to make up the shortfall.
According to Chief Financial Officer Jim Scoubes, the state apportionment the college receives is $500,000 per month. The state has already missed two payments, leaving FRC short $1 million in cash.
Taylor said the college could make it through September; after that, he's concerned about meeting payroll and other basic expenses.
Further, he's heard the state may not pass a budget until the election in November or, worse, that Governor Schwarzenegger won't sign off on the budget unless it meets his requirements — no budget would be passed until he leaves office in January.
The college is also looking into loans from local and regional banks. It is drawing on its line of credit from Umpqua Bank for the first time. It arranged the credit line to help with cash flow during construction of its new library building.
The college has just about run through its Tax Revenue and Anticipation Notes loan. The TRANs has allowed 52 community college districts to borrow more than $2 billion in short-term financing through the program since 2005.
By the end of September, however, FRC will have depleted its $1.9 million in TRANs funds, as well as any cash on hand.
There is also a "legal interaction" between the TRANs loan and the county money that FRC is requesting. Scoubes explained the TRANs agreement mandates that the college will not borrow any other money from the county.
The money requested of the county, therefore, is termed a "transfer of funds" in the FRC resolution. Whether Plumas County Counsel Craig Settlemire or TRANs bondholders see it as a "transfer" or a "loan" remains to be seen.
"Technically (the agreement) says we can't borrow any other funds from the county. That's our obstacle. We're working on how we can do that," said Scoubes.
Further complicating things is the upfront money needed to keep construction moving on the new Learning Resource Center.
While the state reimburses FRC from a fund not tied to the budget process, it requires proof the college has already paid a bill before it pays the college.
Scoubes said he had hoped to finish the LRC project with the Umpqua line of credit. Now, the concern is that Scoubes would have no money to write that check, which will mean he won't get reimbursed.
In turn, that would mean he'd have to "bring the project to a screeching halt" until the college once again had cash.
He's drawn on the Umpqua line of credit for the past two months to keep the project going.
This is the first time he's used the line, and it's going fast, because he hasn't received any of that reimbursement money yet.
Taylor called the special board meeting because he wanted to get the issue in front of the county Board of Supervisors at one of its September meetings, before FRC runs out of cash by the end of the month.
Board member Leah West asked if, given "the crummy economy," the "supervisors were on board" with this request.
Taylor said he wanted FRC's board to meet and pass the resolution before talking to the supervisors.
The resolution originally set a not-to-exceed amount of $4,015,538 during the 2010 – 11 fiscal year. The board amended the amount to $4,970,903 before passing the resolution unanimously,
The district normally receives its first county tax apportionment in December. The second apportionment comes in April after the second round of taxes comes in.
As board president Bill Elliott saw it, the college is "just taking our money early."
Taylor said, while the resolution states a maximum amount the college wants to "transfer" from the county, it would take the money on an "as needed" basis. "We want to maximize options," he said.
FRC is looking for both its December and April allotments now. Taylor also suggested the increase in the funds requested — up from $4,015,538 to $4,970,903. According to the state's education code, the district can borrow up to 85 percent of anticipated tax revenues, and the $4.9 million still adheres to that measure.
Taylor ended the meeting on an apocalyptic note, "Frankly, if you look at the worst case scenario, literally? We don't know when the state budget's going to be done. And, yes we're due property taxes in December, but by January we're operating $2.6 million in the red if we're operating at all. And that simply mounts if there's a serious problem."
West requested a further look at budget priorities, "At a future meeting, I'd like to see — where are we taking steps to cut spending ... we're hiring. We keep hiring. I'd like to see ... what's been done, what's going to be done, to cut some spending."
Director John Sheehan asked even tougher questions. "If nothing happens by December, a whole scenario of things will have to take place ... what happens if there's no money? Every business at some point has to face that."
"People don't get paid," added Elliott.
Taylor, who clearly has been forced to think along the same lines, said "We're starting to look, with our lawyers and banks and so on, in this next few days, if we were to use a voucher system, would that work, and how would it work?"

The Nats close out this series at Chase Field; don't worry, the roof will be closed.
PHOENIX — Hello one final time from Chase Field, where the Nationals and Diamondbacks wrap up their four-game series tonight. It's hotter today than it was any of the previous three days — it's supposed to peak at 110 degrees at 5 p.m. but will "cool" off to 106 by gametime. But don't worry, the roof here will be closed once again.
They leave the thing open all morning and early-afternoon, though, so the grass can get some sunlight and grow. And since it was still open when I got here today for Stephen Strasburg's simulated game, I wanted to take a photo and let everyone see how different the ballpark looks when the roof and the outfield panels are open.
As for tonight's game, Nyjer Morgan is not in the lineup again. We'll see what the update is on his injured right hip and whether yesterday's MRI revealed anything to be concerned about. Ian Desmond returns to start at shortstop. Ivan Rodriguez gets a standard night off, with Wil Nieves behind the plate.
Left-hander Ross Detwiler (who actually has the lowest ERA on the staff at 1.00 because of all the unearned runs he's allowed) starts for the Nats. Rookie right-hander Barry Enright starts for the Diamondbacks.
Check back throughout the evening for updates…

Diamondbacks starting pitcher Barry Enright looks exactly like the actor Simon Pegg. I posted photographic evidence at WNFF. http://www.wnff.net/index.php/topic,19544.msg611620.html#msg611620

What about the web report that Dunn has been claimed?
- Anonymous8 - Aug 5, 2010 at 11:01 PM
Jose Guillen DFA'd….and this one is real!http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=5440414
- Richard - Aug 5, 2010 at 11:03 PM
There's a report out that — shocker! — some unnamed team has claimed Adam Dunn off waivers.
- Sec3Eye2AmAnonymous - Aug 5, 2010 at 11:17 PM
Wow, that IS mysterious. All the teams in MLB *have* names.
- Richard - Aug 5, 2010 at 11:44 PM
John Paul Moresi from FOXSports.com said the identity of the club isn't known and it's now less likely that Dunn will be dealt this month."If the Nationals wish to trade Dunn, they will have to do so while negotiating with only one club, between now and Monday afternoon. It will be difficult for the Nationals to get what they deem to be fair value in a one-on-one negotiation. They were unable to reach an agreement last month, when it was possible to talk with 29 other clubs."Had Dunn been unclaimed, the Nationals could have discussed trade proposals with the 29 other teams."Today's development does not come as a surprise. Dunn, a prospective free agent, is due to earn roughly $4 million over the remainder of this season. It was highly likely that another team valued him at that dollar figure. The waiver claim is evidence of that."Trade waivers are procedural, so this in no way indicates that the Nationals are eager to move Dunn. He is still on the active roster."

Of importance my man Michael Morse is in the lineup, 2 days in a row sportsfans!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_For_Me - Aug 6, 2010 at 12:28 AM
Mark, I know it must be hot as blazes there, but this ballpark looks so much nicer with the roof open. At least on TV, the place looks rather dank when the roof is closed. I was at Miller Park last year one day when the roof was closed and the place was rather stuffy and actually hot. Is Chase the same way? If you get the chance …
- Mark Zuckerman - Aug 6, 2010 at 12:33 AM
Sunshine Bobby C: Agreed with you about how much better this place looks with the roof and panels open. That's why I wanted to post that photo, so everyone could see what a difference it makes. There's no issue with "stuffiness" or heat when the roof is closed, because they crank up the AC to 78 degrees.But having grown up here and having attended and covered several games during the Diamondbacks' first season, I always hoped they'd be able to play more games with the roof open. The way it was initially presented to everyone, they'd be able to open the roof right before gametime and keep the cold air inside, even if it was 95 or 100 degrees outside. Unfortunately, that hasn't been the case. They pretty much only play under an open roof in April, early-May and late-September.
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_For_Me - Aug 6, 2010 at 12:41 AM
That's very interesting, Mark, and thanks for the reply. I guess this tests the physics theory that hot air rises. That's interesting that they sold it one way, and the reality is slightly different. Just growing grass in these places is a chore. Remember, the old Astrodome originally was supposed to have natural grass, but that never happened because they had to darken the original roof panels because everybody was losing balls against the white roof. I think I'm in the Richie Allen category: if a cow can't eat it, I don't want to play on it. Thanks for the prompt reply, and travel safely.
- Nattboy - Aug 6, 2010 at 1:35 AM
4 in a row at 9:40: roughAgainst the dbags: worth itGreat to see Marquis coming back. It'll be fun to see how the rotation pans out. The cavalry arrives!Go nats
- Nats fan in NJ - Aug 6, 2010 at 2:00 AM
I still can't decide which is further proof of our Strasburg madness: That Mark completed a near pitch-by-pitch account of his simulated 2 innings, or I was excited to see it & read it with much anticipation?Go Nats!!
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_For_Me - Aug 6, 2010 at 2:10 AM
I'm with you, Nats fan in NJ. There has got to be a 12-step program for this: "I am Sunshine Bobby, and I'm powerless over Jesus and his simulated games.""Hello, Sunshine…"I'm feeling better already.
- HabsProf - Aug 6, 2010 at 2:15 AM
Questions:1) Is it possible for the Nats to play decent defense behind Detwiler?2) Can Detwiler learn to put a botched defensive play behind him and continue to pitch without falling apart?
- Ernie - Aug 6, 2010 at 2:17 AM
Keep those Strasburg dreams alive, Bobby, because while you're dreaming, Detwiler is turning the bases into a merry-go-round… Will next year's opening day rotation be all righties?
- HabsProf - Aug 6, 2010 at 2:23 AM
Answers to my questions above:1) Seems not.2) Not yet determined. He looked like he was about to fall apart, but in the end only yielded one additional run.
- JaneB - Aug 6, 2010 at 2:42 AM
What is Nyjer's injury? Just turned on the game, and am not seeing anything here — where I count on getting the newest Nat news! — updating us about Nyjer. Maybe they don't bring up anyone in his place, and keep the extra spot for a pitcher.
- Brian G. - Aug 6, 2010 at 2:50 AM
Warming up to Kennedy. Anyone else feel the same way?
- nattaboy - Aug 6, 2010 at 2:53 AM
Announcers said he's headed to the dl. Didn't catch specific diagnosis but (the real) Bobby C said something like "with nyjer out for 2 weeks, Bernadine is gonna have to start hitting the ball"I agree. Maybe we can get every position player to homer in the series. Lookin at you, hammer, berny and WHO?
- nattaboy - Aug 6, 2010 at 2:58 AM
I've never been too down on AK (though it makes me shudder to use those initials again). Not a fan of the 'not getting enough playing time' excuse, but the guy does seem like a pro. The way he carries himself. Maybe it's the dip or something.But yeah, warming. I do think he'll continue to hit better
- Anonymous - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:00 AM
@Manassas I would love to know the batting stats as a group for nats pitchers, and opposing pitchers. I know we give up a lot more RBI to pitchers than we get.
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_For_Me - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:01 AM
@JaneB: Nyjer has some sort of hip flexor injury. He's going on the DL. Nats to call up a position player after this game. With J-Max already on his odd-numbered day to be with the Nats, I'm a little up in the air as to whom it would be. Is it time to play the Pete Orr card again?
- Dryw - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:06 AM
At least with Stammen, there is a Good Stammen to occasionally counteract the Bad Stamman. Of course, Zim and Dunn seem to have it in for Detwiler tonight, but he's not doing all that much to help himself out, either!
- Dryw - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:09 AM
Uh, that last comment was written before Zim's blast. Nice apology for your error, Ryan!
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_For_Me - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:17 AM
WARNING…WARNING…MAYDAY…MAYDAY…Everybody strap on those helmets, here comes Bally Star!Does he go for the trifecta tonight?
- Brian - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:20 AM
With Marquis and Strasburg both coming back, I would think Detwiler is already packing his bags to go back to Syracuse. Dang, this game is getting ugly fast in the fifth…
- Ernie - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:20 AM
There's definitely some decisions to be made about the rotation, but not the good kind. More like which of the current starting 5 deserve to stay in the majors? I would be quite happy to see Detwiler, Lannan, Olsen and Stammen fighting it out for the fifth spot in the rotation in Syracuse. With the rest in AA ball. Detwiler doesn't deserve any benefit of the doubt for the errors, either. The baseball just kept bouncing out to right field over and over when the D'backs came to the plate. The only error that matters on those plays was to have the guy return to the mound in the 3rd. I prefer Batista to this.
- nattaboy - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:20 AM
Dbacks broadcasters when ballestar heads into the game: "watch out everybody here he comes"
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_For_Me - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:22 AM
@Brian: My guess: Marquis and Jesus coming up.Det and Bally Star off to SYR
- Anonymous - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:24 AM
Detwiler, Balester, and on and on. Where do the Nats come up with these turkeys? It must be time to dust off Jason Bergmann. The sad truth is that the Nats have two reliable major league starters, Livan and Strasburg. The rest of them belong in the dumpster.
- rmoore446 - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:28 AM
I hate series like this one against Arizona. The Nats seem incapable of winning two in a row against a bad team like Arizona. It reminds me of the Baltimore series. They will never be much of anything until they can win consistently against the weak sisters. This is hard to watch.Stammen ought to buy Detwiler dinner tonight. Ross has self-identified as the pitcher to share a ride to AAA with Lannan.
- Brian - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:29 AM
Only we can find a way to turn an inning-ending strikeout into another run for the opposing team. Sheesh…@Sunshine: I'd love to see Bally Star leave, but if we're keeping five starters, Detwiler and another current starter are both outta here (or maybe one takes Det's place in the 'pen)…
- Brian - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:31 AM
Oops…I meant to say someone takes BALLY'S place in the 'pen.
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_for_Me - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:32 AM
One thing about Bally Star tonight: He seems to be throwing a whole lot of breaking stuff low and away. I don't think he's thrown a high, hard one yet.Which is probably for the best.Keeps the litigation costs down.
- nattaboy - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:33 AM
All 7 runs charged to Detwiler. OuchI'm partial to the kid since I saw his 1st MLB inning in Atlanta in September 2008. I hope they let him stay in the rotation because his ceiling still seems higher than everybody but SS and J-Zim. Losing a game or 4 this year to get him some experience, though it pains me to say it, is not the worst thing in the world
- nattaboy - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:38 AM
I say Lannan & Balester should wear those awesome sky chief jerseys and Stammen should head to the pen
- Anonymous - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:40 AM
My least favorite part of the mlb.com team sites is how they sugar coat everything. Current example: the headline for tonight's game is "Zimmerman clubs 20th homer of season in fifth" with no mention of "Nationals currently being shelled by Dbacks" or "Detweiler ineffective; given early hook" or "Nats defense stinks it up; 2 errors already" all of which would be more appropriate headlines.
- Ernie - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:40 AM
Nattaboy: The ceiling always looks higher when you're lying flat on the floor.
- Anonymous8 - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:47 AM
I am just glad Balestar shaved that 'stache!
- rmoore446 - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:47 AM
I agree Detwiler has a promising future but he can learn in AAA and not have his confidence undermined by getting pounded up here. Frankly, I'm not super confident about Marquis in the near future either but given his track record and his salary, he's got to have the ball. Oddly enough, I have a better feeling about Jordan Zimmerman who'll return a little bit later in August.
- nattaboy - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:51 AM
I know the kid hasn't been fantastic. Or even close. But to me he's not like Chico, Stammen, Atilano, and (also pains me to say this) Lannan. Those guys are part of many many arms in the Nats organization that at best can be bottom of the rotation, and why not at this point in the season with so many guys to choose from, go with the guys that have higher potential?Detwiler still looks like that kid wearing a pink backpack on his way to the bullpen. Also interestingly when dibble asked him about his hip he said "every day it gets better"
- nattaboy - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:56 AM
Also, post on nationals journal is up about nyjer and possible replacement. Kilgore teases us with the possibility that it's Ramos
- Brian - Aug 6, 2010 at 3:56 AM
Fantastic…our meager offense must have already left for LA as we face the worst bullpen in MLB. Why am I staying up to torture myself by watching this game??
- Anonymous - Aug 6, 2010 at 4:00 AM
@ManassasToo many Hans Solo Home Runs. Lets get a couple more with 2 or3 on base.I bet you our percentage of Hans Solos is higher than our opponents.
- nattaboy - Aug 6, 2010 at 4:05 AM
Last game for Syracuse is September 6th. It makes the rotation decisions even harder/more interesting that you can only say 'he can figure it out in the minors' for another month
- Ernie - Aug 6, 2010 at 4:09 AM
Nattaboy: He can figure it out on his couch then. I seriously would prefer a 40-year old middle reliever on the mound than Detwiler. I'm thinking that if he gets demoted we find out that his hip hasn't fully healed anyway.I'm in a bad mood.
- Brian - Aug 6, 2010 at 4:15 AM
So…will we have more solo HRs or GIDPs tonight?
- Anonymous - Aug 6, 2010 at 4:21 AM
@ManassasIs that 11 DP's now for the series. Hitting with men on a serious issue all year.
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_For_Me - Aug 6, 2010 at 4:25 AM
nattaboy said… Also, post on nationals journal is up about nyjer and possible replacement. Kilgore teases us with the possibility that it's Ramos I wholeheartedly concur. Why not? As somebody once said around here, "The Future Is Now."
- rmoore446 - Aug 6, 2010 at 4:30 AM
I'm with Ernie on the bad mood front. I'd just like to avoid another 100 loss season, thank you very much. If I see another youngster throw breaking stuff to the #8 hitter like he's Ty Cobb or walk the pitcher I think I'll scream. With the notable exception of SS ain't none of the youngsters currently on the roster arousing the fanboy in me.
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_For_Me - Aug 6, 2010 at 4:55 AM
Ernie, you feel the way about Detwiler the way I feel about Stammen. I know he won Wednesday night, but I'm tired of him taking 90 pitches to go five innings. My newly revised rotation for September:1. Jesus, as long as he can last.2. J-Zimm'nn.3. Livo.4. Maya.5. Marquis.Det/Stammen/Olsen/Lannan/Cast of Thousands can fight it out with Miss Iowa for long relief.

AC Power Adapter
Mounting Bracket
If you've ever had a tough time seeing the weights on your scale's display because of a large package, (or anything else that might cover your weight display) you'll know what a great feature this is. Adam designed the CPWPlus-75 with a backlit digital weight display that pulls away from the scale so ya can see your weights even with a BIG package on the scale. The weight display is connected to the base of the scale with a coiled cable that stretches up to 6 feet long.
The tare button on the CPW-75 bench scale can be pressed to "zero out" the weight that is on the scale. You can then add more weight and the scale will only display the weights of the items you're adding...this sure is useful.
The CPWplus75 has an RS232 port built right in. This is important if you want to send your weight readings and other data to an external source like a computer or printer.
This industrial bench scale has a very useful hold feature that allows the user to "freeze" the weight on the display. This can come in handy when ya need to weigh unstable objects or record weight readings.
The CPWPlus has a really cool dynamic weighing feature. This filtering feature allows you to accurately weigh unstable items by filtering the scale's sensitivity.
The CPW has a durable stainless steel weighing platform to make cleanup a breeze. Stainless steel doesn't scratch easily and keeps its shine without rusting or tarnishing.
You won't have to worry about dust and dirt getting stuck under and around the buttons on the CPW Plus 75 weight indicator...The CPW's have an easy to clean membrane keypad with accurately labeled keys for easy weighing.
To save power, Adam designed this series with a programmable auto off feature. Set the CPWs to turn off after about two minutes with no activity, or to stay on until ya turn them off yourself.
The CPWplus has a backlit weight display ya can program to always stay on, turn on with the press of a button or weight change, or to stay off. This feature is great for saving battery power.
The CPW plus series comes with a 1 year manufacturer warranty that protects against defects and workmanship. Head on over to the Adam website to register your Adam scales for warranty.

It's a lot to think about, making yourself unblemished enough to merit another year of life.
Yesterday morning one of the girls' daycare teachers excitedly told me she was leaving early, before the kids went down for nap. Ms. H is a devout Muslim, a head-covering, long-sleeves-in-August-wearing woman with a heart of gold. She cried when I told her my grandmother died; prayed when my husband had a lung tumor removed; volunteered to leave her own kids for a night and babysit so we could go out to celebrate our anniversary; gifted me with a large jar of Somali spice she didn't know how to name in English but told me to mix with honey and lemon juice to ease my cough; and dreamed that my third baby would be a boy, just as she has two girls and a boy.
She is a good person, a better person than I. Her faith is not the same as mine, and I don't see that as a reason for judging her. Yesterday she was leaving work early to take her kids downtown to the Islamic rally being held on Capitol Hill, and she was very excited. Today I read in the newspaper that some extremist Christians disrupted their rally, calling for them to repent.
Tonight I read online about a synagogue in Brooklyn that was targeted this morning by protesters with signs saying "God Hates Jews." Tonight I baked an apple cake, a cake I always bake for our fall holidays. Before we fast beginning tomorrow evening, first we'll share a filling meal with friends. I baked this cake to share with friends and reflected that I baked it, as I always do, in my grandmother's cake pan. My grandmother left Poland as a child fleeing religious persecution. It's something I have the luxury of rarely thinking about. But if she had not fled I could not bake an apple cake to feed our last bites before observing Yom Kippur, because I couldn't observe Yom Kippur. I wouldn't be here. A Jewish family fled Europe in the 1930s to seek religious freedom in America. A Somali Muslim woman fled Mogadishu in the 1980s to seek a safer life in America and is proud to defend her religious freedom. An old Jewish woman died and a Somali Muslim woman who never met her cried. These are the things I thought about as I mixed my apple batter.
This all started yesterday, the nonstop thinking about beliefs, about tolerance, about intolerance, about repentance. Yesterday I made a quick trip to Target on my lunch hour and passed a nondescript white building I've passed hundreds of times and never really noticed. It's a business of some sort, one of those that can be frequently found on busy streets that once were quieter streets decades earlier. It's some kind of office that clearly once was somebody's house. And that's all I ever noticed.
Until yesterday, when I passed that building and noticed it with great clarity. Standing outside it was a pair of priests in full clerical garb, with a pair of small girls before them praying the rosary, and maybe a dozen other supporters behind them. The supporters waved signs saying "Babies Die Here" and "Pray to End Abortion." For the first time ever I looked up at the nondescript sign on the nondescript house and saw that it says: "Dr. G__. Family Planning Clinic."
I drove the last block to Target, shaken, but I focused on my list because a working woman's lunch hour Target run must be a highly-organized event. I picked up what I needed and stopped for a quick sandwich at the sandwich shop back towards work for whose tuna pesto panini I have a certain fondness. Inside I felt re-shaken. The priests from across the street were inside, finishing up their own sandwiches. And laughing, enjoying themselves and their quick break, just like all the other businesspeople inside on their lunch hour. By the time I finished my own meal, they were back hard at work, yelling in car windows: "Did you know babies die here? Will you pray with us?"
In the realm of abortion talk, I've always been pro-choice, or perhaps more specifically, anti- telling another woman what to do with her body. In a general sense I've never understood those who must bully others with their own opinions, whether the topic is Islamic prayer in public or abortion or who's better, the Bills or the Dolphins. (Let's go, Buffalo!) This summer I had to consider abortion in a new light when we learned my pregnancy might not deliver a healthy child. Thank goodness the Groundhog has proven himself genetically viable and robust, but were that not the case, would we have made that choice? Would I have had to face the worst day of my life and a pushy loudmouth protester, too?
We're all, all of us, just going about our lives the best we can, making choices good and bad, sometimes stumbling, sometimes failing, but none of us is perfect, none of us is superior. My faith is my faith and I will never push it upon you. Your faith is your faith and I will always respect that. Don't we all have reasons to repent? Don't we all have opportunities to lessen our intolerance?
I won't be at work on Monday because of Yom Kippur but on Tuesday I have to remember to give Ms. H a hug and ask her about her perspective on the rally. I have to shake the images of the past two days out of my mind and focus on the upcoming holiday and worry only about cultivating my own clean slate. The oven timer is beeping, and I have to pull my cake out of my grandmother's cake pan and look in on each of the girls before my healthy lovely husband and I fall into bed and I fall asleep to the internal metronome of my healthy unborn son's kicks.
For everyone celebrating tomorrow, I ask you to forgive any transgressions I've committed against you and I wish you an easy fast. For all of you, celebrating and not, I hope you are inscribed for another year in the Book of Life. We are all just trying, every day by day by day.

Picture of the front window of a horsemeat butchery taken on February... Photo d'actualitéCanton de Vaud,Fenêtre,Finance,Horizontal,Suisse,Viande de chevalPhotographer AFPCollection: AFP 2013 AFPPicture of the front window of a horsemeat butchery taken on February 14, 2013 in Yverdon-Les-Bains. Swiss supermarket giant Coop said that it had found horsemeat in its own-brand frozen lasagna produced by Comigel, the French firm at the heart of a Europewide food scandal. Earlier Wednesday, the Coop group published a statement on its website saying it had turned to independent testers amid concerns that products labelled as beef could contain horsemeat. Eating horsemeat is relatively common in Switzerland, unlike in Britain, where it is a taboo, meaning concerns on the horsemeat scandal in Switzerland have focussed on alleged labelling fraud.

text: Reading this article got me thinking - specifically about the HSA part, and what this means under Linux. It seems to me that supporting such a GPU, with the same address space and MMU as the CPU, would require pretty invasive changes to the mm subsystem - a core part of the kernel. Furthermore, I'm assuming this means that the GPU driver would need some kind of interface to the memory manager to coordinate the CPU and GPU. This is no problem for the open-source driver - albeit it would require tons and tons of work as it's basically ripping out GEM/TTM or extending it so that it can handle the new way of managing memory. However, for Catalyst to work this would require exporting these interface as not GPLed (i.e. EXPORT_SYMBOL instead of EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL), similar to what nvidia is trying to do with dma-buf. Of course we all know the uproar that's caused - now take that, and crank it to 11 to imagine what would happen if AMD tried to do that with the mm subsystem. So, the question is, is it even possible to support HSA with a closed blob? Of course, this is all purely hypothetical - we won't really know what will happen until AMD discloses more information about how HSA works. Regardless, I think its an interesting question, one will certainly come up when Kaveri and Kabini launch in 2013 and has broad implications for Linux GPU driver development in the future.

This can, and should RULE!!
One person that Vin Diesel's Riddick character doesn't approve of is a "Merc". Witness him fighting one in this latest photo the producer has revealed via his Facebook page. In Universal Pictures' third installment, Diesel is joined by co-stars Karl Urban, Jordi Molla, Matt Nable, Katee Sackhoff, Bokeem Woodbine, Dave Bautista, Conrad Pla, Raoul Trujillo, Nolan Funk and Keri Hilson. Franchise writer-director David Twohy returned to lead the production.
Plot Concept: Diesel reprises his role as the antihero Riddick, a dangerous, escaped convict wanted by every bounty hunter in the known galaxy.
The infamous Riddick has been left for dead on a sun-scorched planet that appears to be lifeless. Soon, however, he finds himself fighting for survival against alien predators more lethal than any human he's encountered. The only way off is for Riddick to activate an emergency beacon and alert mercenaries who rapidly descend to the planet in search of their bounty.
The first ship to arrive carries a new breed of merc, more lethal and violent, while the second is captained by a man whose pursuit of Riddick is more personal. With time running out and a storm on the horizon that no one could survive, his hunters won't leave the planet without Riddick's head as their trophy.
Riddick arrives in conventional and IMAX theaters on September 6, 2013.
fuck yes, i liked pitch black i liked C.O.R. can't wait for this. though i gotta say i think vin, gained some weight . he looked chunky in fast five, and on this pic his arms look like they shrunk, damn boy hit the gym get bigger look meaner and leaner...lol.. my arms bout the same size in that pic, and i'm 42..

Found in the east end of Toronto. An entire city (600 000+) of hoodlums, scumbags, druggies, gangsters etc. Also known as Scarborough, Scar-town, Scarlem. Was notorious in the early 90's as the crime capital of Canada. The population is generally low-brow.
In Scarberia it is easy to get into trouble.

Various colleges and universities may offer a degree in Computer Science either as an Arts or a Science.
What differences are there between the two?
Would recruiters and those who conduct interviews favor one over the other? (Bachelor of Arts vs Bachelor of Sciences etc...)
Update - Just wanted to add this link to Joel Spolsky's site to give a better frame of reference: BA or BS in Computer Science

Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.
