Overall score
would recommend to a friend.
Reviewer score
Would recommend
Convenience and pleasant service
The Day,s Hotel in Belfast was convenient to the downtown. We had same difficulty with the reservation, our fault, and the staff were very accommodating and helpful. The price was great forthe convenience. Clean also.
Staff were brilliant!
The staff were excellent. The girls on check in were friendly and helpful. They checked us in and out politely and efficiently and on top of that they answered all of my questions, drew me maps when i needed directions and even looked after my
phone when i left it in my room! The hotel is huge and was easy to find at the end of the day when we were desperate for some rest! The room was very basic but it suited our needs. There were some roadworks outside and lots of graffiti around but it was more interesting than ugly. It was very noisy as it was in the middle of the city but then it was so easy to walk to shops, restaurants, the cinema and the museum! We were really pleased with it!
Ask the hotel for a map of Belfast! We were given one on our last day and it was so helpful! Would have saved a lot of walking round in circles!
Very Reasonable!!!
The Days Hotel was very adequate as far as price and room size/comfort. I felt the breakfast was overpriced. We did have a problem with our shower drain and had to request for it to be fixed four times before all was ok. Overall, our stay was
satisfactory and I would stay here again.
The hotel is very close to the City Centre where you can access everything. Also, the staff is very willing to help with taxis, buses, etc.
excellent value
days hotel is excellent value for accomadition ,breakfast is a bit expensive
nice breakfast available at spires cafe starting 3.65 stg for a ulster fry
Good location, great customer service, free car parking
I was very impressed with this budget hotel. I would have given it top marks but the bathroom sink in my room was filthy, i.e. full of dirty gunge that had not been cleaned out, so I had to move rooms. Besides that, it was good value for money
short to restaurants and into town. Free overnight parking and some of the next day
Free parking nextdoor, staff bending backwards to help, location focal to Belfast.
Would not recommend
not impressed,
carpets in hallway were filty and i doubt the seen a vacum cleaner or carpet cleaner since the that they were fitted, and the build up of dust on the carpets in the bedrooms was disgusting, the bathroom was reasonably clean but the shower kept
blocking and water wouldnt release for a good few mins, cleaning staff were knocking on the door at 8:15 am to see if we wanted our room cleaned, there was litter on the carpets in corridor for the duration of our 2 day stay,several members of staff passed by this and failed to pick it up, food in the main restaurant was ok, breakfast bar was average, there was an option for bar food which we got, and this was heated in the microwave and was one of the worst things ive ever tasted, i sent this back goa refund but no apology of the girl that served me, but a manager did apoliges some time later, this is a below average hotel, location is good but i would not recommend it to anyone,
Days in Belfast, NI
Hotel was clean & staff were friendly.
Great location, easy to get around Belfast & the local sites.
Days Inn
I am doing research and it was fair at best.

Wear During Sports and Activities
The DonJoy Economy Hinged Knee Support provides mild medial/lateral support of the knee. If you have knee joint pain, have experienced an ACL tear or other ligament injury, this orthosis will provide you with a moderate amount of support as well as pain relief. This DonJoy knee brace contains a polycentric hinge with aluminum uprights in its sleeve. They provide light support to your medial/lateral ligaments, in addition to the support already offered by the orthosis's neoprene and strapping.
The Economy Hinged Knee is designed to be worn during active periods or while playing sports. Many employ padding to protect joints and muscle groups. Some provide stability to weak or previously injured zones, such as knee tendonitis and acl tears. Others utilize rigid structures to guard against trauma or jarring motions. Please note the DonJoy Economy Hinged Knee is the same brace as the Donjoy Sport Hinged Knee. The wraparound style is only available in Drytex material.
- Polycentric hinge with 10-3/4" aluminum uprights
- Uprights can be removed for washing
- Neoprene material or cool and breathable Drytex material available.

Questions on DonJoy Economy Hinged Knee
- From June at 3/15/2015 2:12 PM
- Do you have any knee braces like this one that are not hinged?
- June
A brace without hinges would be one of our knee sleeves. The sleeves however do not have any straps. Another option is the Performer knee brace , but it does have a buttress around the kneecap. http://www.betterbraces.com/donjoy-performer-patella-knee-support The hinges in the economy hinged knee brace can be removed
- From NATALIE at 4/12/2015 10:38 AM
- I have had my left knee reconstructed and medial meniscus removed. I have re-torn the ACL and am looking for a brace to stabilize my knee when being active with aerobics, walking etc. Would you recommend this for someone with my knee?
- Natalie
Since you re-tore your ACL you will need to wear a rigid ACL brace for activities such as aerobics. The Don Joy Full Force Ligament knee brace is light weight, low profile and has our patented Fource Point hinge for ACL protection. http://www.betterbraces.com/donjoy-fullfource-ligament-knee-brace A simple hinged knee brace will not give you the protection that you need.
- From Rachel at 5/6/2015 5:36 PM
- I have had surgery on my knee to repair a torn meniscus, and since have suffered chronic knee pain, and weakness. would this be a good brace?
- Rachel
Yes this brace would be a good choice to provide your knee support after the surgery. It has two hinges to give the medial and lateral support and also prevent the knee from twisting some what

YouTube fans go gaga for Gaga
Lady Gaga has officially become the first person to rack up more than 1 billion channel views on YouTube.
.relatedLinksLeft { font-size:12px; width:300px; margin:12px 12px 12px 0; float:left; padding:0px 0px 10px 0px; background:#ececec; } h3.rlTitle {margin:0px; display:block; padding:5px 0 4px 15px !important; background:#ddd; } According to BBC, which quotes internet research company famecount.com, Poker-Face Gaga has 1,002,734,757 views on YouTube. This includes all her uploaded material and not a single video.
She tweeted to almost 7 million followers saying: "We reached one billion views on YouTube little monsters!" And then dubbed them "kings and queens of YouTube".
However, the record for highest number of views on a single video is Justin Bieber's single Baby featuring Ludacris, with 367,793,190 views last we checked and the number is steadily increasing.
Lady Gaga has set records online by becoming the most followed person on Twitter and racked up over 20 million Facebook fans. Justin Bieber's Baby overtook her Bad Romance earlier this year for the most viewed video, so the 16-year-old singer could very well be inching up on breaking her YouTube record someday.

DeVon Franklin admits struggle with celibacy
DeVon Franklin admitted that it was not easy for him to resist getting physical with Meagan Good before they wed.
During a chat with Let's Pray TV, the film producer revealed that two major factors of him deciding to become celibate. In the past, DeVon was in relationship where he did have sex and that conflicted to what he was preaching in the pulpit. Once he broke up with the young lady, he decided to commit to being celibate until he got married.
"I need to live in peace and I can't live as being two different people. The desire for peace and harmony was also part of the motivator," said DeVon. "That part was if, for some reason, my disobedience were to disqualify me for God's purpose on my life, would the activity that I was engaging in have been worth it?"
But DeVon revealed that it took a lot of determination, restraint and conversations with God to keep him from breaking his own vow. "It's Meagan Good, so I had to do some prayer," he said with a laugh.

Review quote
Ken Burns Stephen Ambrose is that rare breed: a historian with true passion for his subject. Here he takes one of the great, but also one of the most superficially considered, stories in American history and breathes fresh life into it. Lewis comes alive as we've never known him.

This is my great-grandfather (Piotr) and great-grandmother's (Magdelena) wedding. They were married in 1907, less 4 years after they immigrated to America from Poland.
This is my grandmother and grandfathers wedding photo from the 1920's, I swear they didn't always look this grumpy!
Oh man, I was so scared of their grumpiness I almost didn't post this. Just kidding! They look perfectly sunny to me, but maybe that's because I come from a city where it rains 300 days a year. This is as peppy as we get around here.

New from Note Design: Marginal Notes #2
Note Design Studio opened "Excursion," its second "Marginal Notes" exhibition at the Lindelöf showroom and gallery Wednesday night. Eagerly awaiting the follow-up to last year's collection, I trekked over to the space Thursday morning to see what the design group released. Their bright, pop sensibility (let's just say that they're armed with a palette of neon hues and aren't afraid to use it) was reflected yet again in the designs, which were inspired by thoughts, musings, and sketches captured in their notebooks. Here's how they describe the methodology: "We went deep into the forest to explore, measure, and collect…We examined our notebooks in search of the ideas in the margin—those unique sketches that pop out when you look again…Many seemed to have a common theme that we simply called "Base Camp"; the simplistic materials and shapes of scientific field expedition tools adapted to stand wear and tear." The way that these objects were reinterpreted consistently had me standing there nodding to myself and saying, "well, now, that's clever." Have a look at the designs in our slideshow and see for yourself.

Fair Chairs
We continue our coverage of the 2012 Stockholm Furniture and Light Fair with a selection of especially haute seats. The allure of a well-designed chair is tough to resist and there were plenty of lookers on the show floor. Most featured the attributes we all come to expect from Scandinavian design: blonde wood, hardy textiles, and crisp lines, but a few bucked the mold, featuring looser silhouettes and knitted slipcovers intended to act as furniture garments.

Seven from Stockholm Design Week
It's about mid-way through the 2012 Stockholm Design Week and I've been traveling to studios, showrooms, and the show floor of the Furniture and Light Fair to seek out what's new in Scandinavian Design. There were plenty of wonderful things out there—far too many to even begin to think about a comprehensive roundup—but in the following slideshow, I share seven of my favorites in lighting, furniture, textiles, and accessories.

Best of Paris: 2012 Maison & Objet
Maison & Objet, the annual winter design show in Paris, ended last week, and it's taken seven whole days to catch our collective breath and clean off our camera's memory card. The immeubles shown at Maison sweep across eight airplane-hangar-sized buildings in a convention center north of the ciy, and include everything in the world of "déco," from wallpaper to candlesticks to armoires. And like any influential design fair worth its salt, the conversion of editors and retailers inspires some equally incredible satellite events throughout Paris. Especially notable were the young designers presenting at Meet My Project and offsite events by Emeco and Rockwell Group. Here are some notes from the exhibition floors at Maison, with some city snapshots for good measure.

Danish Design, Curated by Morrison
While in Copenhagen recently, I had the chance to visit the recently renamed Design Museum Denmark (formerly the Danish Museum of Art & Design), and to check out their current exhibition, the quirkily named "Danish Design–I Like It!" British designer Jasper Morrison combed through the museum's extensive archives to put together a personal tour of the country's design highlights from mid-century onwards. The exhibition, which is on view until December 30th, offers a colorful and fascinating look at a wide variety of Danish-designed objects and furnishings, from the iconic to the obscure. Here's a peek at the goods on view.

A Visit to HAY Copenhagen
I just returned to the office from a trip to Copenhagen spent reporting a handful of stories for the magazine and scouting future projects. A highlight of the trip was my visit to HAY, a fantastic store dedicated to contemporary Danish design that's set in a historic building overlooking Strøget, the city's main pedestrian thoroughfare. I spent more than an hour in the store in a kind of happy design daze, gawping over the lovely sofas, chairs, rugs, tables, and miscellaneous gifts and gadgets. Here are some photos from my visit. I'll share some of my other favorite Copenhagen discoveries online over the next couple weeks.

Building Green in Albany
This year, Build it Green celebrates the completion of its 10,000th GreenPoint rated home. Through the Greenpoint system, Build it Green awards points for energy efficiency, resource conservation, indoor air quality, water conservation and community consideration in new projects as well as renovations. I recently toured a renovation in Albany, California, that fetched a whopping score of 231 out of 300 possible points. While every design gesture was carefully thought out to maximize its green potential, the home is remarkably comfortable and liveable and it doesn't feel like like a theoretical or conceptual exercise—everything just makes sense. Click through the slideshow for a look at the residence and the measures homeowner and architect Ian MacLeod undertook.

La Dolce Cinecittà
On the outskirts of Rome lies Cinecittà, the biggest movie studio in mainland Europe. Launched in 1937 as a propaganda factory for Mussolini, it later became a playground for some of the most stylish and iconic filmmakers in history: Sergio Leone shot spaghetti westerns there; Fellini called it his "temple of dreams." More recently, it was home to Scorsese's "Gangs of New York." Usually, cinephiles can only get a peek at Cinecitta's storied campus via private group tours—not easy to arrange for the average tourist—but through November 30th, the studio's gates are open to the general public for the first time. The main attraction is an exhibit of Cinecittà memorabilia, but I was just as interested in the studio itself: A prime example of WWII-era modernist architecture.

Tokyo Designers Week: Eco Lighting
Switching from incandescent to LED bulbs can cut the amount of electricity a lamp consumes by sixty percent or more. But with their cool-white hue and hefty price tag, getting excited about these earth-friendly lights can be hard. At design events taking place around Tokyo this week, exhibitors played up the benefits of LEDs—like the fact that they are small, emit little heat, and can be easily dimmed—with a selection of innovative fixtures. Here's what I saw.

If this is what we can expect from the MX1 boys this year then it could be one hell of a season.

There was a religious significance, as the little dogs were said to be the living embodiment of the lion, which is revered in the Orient as the guardian of Buddha.
They remained the property of the Chinese nobility for centuries and it was not until 1930 that some reached the West. Most of the little pampered pets were destroyed in the Chinese Revolution but several were sent to England, and from there they spread around the world.
The Shih Tzu was admitted to the American Kennel Club registry in 1969.

Tips for riding Europe's subways and buses
Buying tickets and boarding is half the battle. Figuring out where to get off can be just as challenging. Subway trains are equipped with maps detailing their route — track the different stops as you ride. An automated voice usually announces which stop is next, and you'll also see the names of each station as you roll through.
Usually these are posted prominently on the platform or along the wall. When the train stops, the doors generally open automatically, though you may have to open them yourself by pushing a button or pulling a lever.
Buses offer fewer cues for stops, so it's even more important to stay alert. Have a sense of how long the trip is going to take. As you ride, follow along the route on your map, looking for landmarks along the way: monuments, bridges, major cross streets, and so on. Some buses pull over at every stop, while others only stop by request. If in doubt, look for a pull cord or a button with the local word for "stop."
When riding on any public transportation, watch out for thieves. Per capita, there are more pickpockets on Europe's subway trains and buses than just about anywhere else. They congregate wherever there are crowds or bottlenecks: on escalators, at turnstiles, or at the doors of packed buses or subway cars as people get on and off. Wearing a money belt is the best way to avoid having your pockets picked.
Despite occasional hassles and stress, using public transit is efficient and economical. And with the proper attitude, it can also be a cultural experience, plunging you into the people-filled river of European workaday life.

1996 Saturn SL Problems
Front brake rotors can wear causing a pulsation felt in the brake pedal. Our technicians tell us this condition is best corrected by replacement of the front rotors and brake pads.
The alternator may fail causing the charge light to illuminate. Driving with this condition will eventually cause the engine to stall due to low system voltage.
The timing chain may come into contact with the timing cover, causing noise in the engine. Replacement of worn timing chain components will be necessary to correct this concern.

I agree, as if you have had a chance to listen to Corey's pbp broadcasts you would know that he is not, by any means, lazy. Before every Oil King broadcast, he is well prepared before going on the air, and calls the game the way most radio listeners would appreciate. In fact, I would say that he is ten times better than the two knobs that are currently calling the Oilers broadcast. Via the sat-radio I have the opportunity to listen to many of the other NHL home pbp broadcasters, and by far, imho the Oilers employ the worst, which is unfortunate, given the long standing individual that held that position previous.
To the benefit of those that listen to the Oil Kings, Corey sticks to calling the game as he sees it, from whistle to whistle, providing background and or detail during the whistle breaks. He can articulate what is taking place on the ice as well as communicate his excitement so that the listener can anticipate a great play, save, or goal. This opposed to having the two radio Oiler broadcasters, who talk throughout what should be the pbp on the ice, attempting to prove who is smarter at trivia, or name dropping. Too often, the play has been missed, and you do not know where the play is on the ice, what exactly has happened, or what lead to it happening. You are often left to have no feel for the game, and I have given up trying to listen to them. They are terrible, and whoever is responsible for their hire, should be fired.
Dan is out of his pay-grade, and though many on this board dislike Rob Brown, he has actually played in the NHL, and often listening to what he has to say is the only saving grace of the complete broadcast. I would love to see the TEAM obtain the Oilers broadcast rights, but in doing so I am afraid that they would have to take Michaels & Stauffer as well.

GAINESVILLE, Ga. (AP) — A Gainesville man has been sentenced to life prison in connection with a deadly shooting at a housing complex in the northeast Georgia city.
The Times of Gainesville reports that Christopher Slaughter on Thursday was found guilty of murder in the October 2009 killing of 19-year-old Aikeem Hall in the parking lot of the Atlanta Street Apartments.
Northeastern Judicial Circuit Superior Court Judge Kathlene Gosselin sentenced the 20-year-old to life in prison after the jury reached its verdict.
Slaughter's lawyer, Travis A. Williams, had argued that Hall had been bullying his client, and that the killing was done in self-defense. Prosecutors disputed that account of the shooting.

My self-summary
Write a little about yourself. Just a paragraph will do.
I am looking for friends. Right now it seems that I have been looking in all the wrong places. I am in the process of self-improvement which is an on-going situation. I am a professional woman, who is as comfortable sitting around a campfire as I am sitting in a Board room. I like watching sports, listening to music, meeting people and photography. I love the ocean and the coastal area. It is very refreshing and relaxing. I have 2 very spoiled ME Coon Cats, so you must like cats.
I am spontaneous, genuine, and fun-loving
I am spontaneous, genuine, and fun-loving
What I'm doing with my life
Don't overthink this one; tell us what you're doing day-to-day.
I work full-time in a very stressful job. I am working on self-improvement. I enjoy going to the fitness center and noting the changes. I would like to meet some new friends to share in activities. If there is a special someone out there, I would like to meet him and see where it can lead.
I'm really good at
Go on, brag a little (or a lot). We won't judge.
Working with people. I have a friend who says I am a great catalyst when it comes to getting people talking to each other, especially in a large group. I love to cook and sharing my delights with others...you should try my lasagna.
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
My smile, my eyes and my personality. I am as comfortable in blue jeans as I am a business suit. I enjoy dressing nicely.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Help your potential matches find common interests.
My favorite movies are: Pretty Woman, Ghost, Dirty Dancing and Wizard of Oz. I like to read self-improvement books, mysteries and a little romance novels. I enjoy most kinds of music...maybe not opera, but then again no one has ever explained it to me to make it interesting. I think my favorite food is lobster or scallops. I also like Italian dishes. I like to try new recipes.
The six things I could never do without
Think outside the box. Sometimes the little things can say a lot.
1. My best friend
2. My 2 cats
3. My family
4. A notebook and pen
5. My camera
6. Laughter
2. My 2 cats
3. My family
4. A notebook and pen
5. My camera
6. Laughter
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Global warming, lunch, or your next vacation… it's all fair game.
What my future is going to look like and how I can make a difference in people's lives
On a typical Friday night I am
Netflix and takeout, or getting your party on — how do you let loose?
Out of work at 5:00pm, and headed to the fitness center or a meeting. I then head home and cook dinner. After finishing that, I relax with some television, the computer or a book
The most private thing I'm willing to admit
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
I will have to think about this one...I am pretty much an open book. Most people know too much about me, so my life isn't too private.
You should message me if
Offer a few tips to help matches win you over.
You want a true friend without games. I am willing to meet someone halfway. I have had too many who want the benefits of my friendship, but are not willing to give anything in return. If you are respectful of a woman and want to get to know me, send me a message.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness … "
Chances are, most Americans have heard these words before, but it's not every day that we stop to appreciate their meaning. It was the declaration of these truths that led to the freedoms of today. Even those that seem the simplest to us now, like the freedom to create, share and read comics, were made possible by the bravery of our founding fathers on July 4, 1776, when they signed the Declaration of Independence.
Although there are many traditions that take place on the Fourth of July every year, like backyard cookouts and fireworks shows, Independence Day is a holiday created to celebrate our great nation. In honor of "the land of the free and the home of the brave," we've compiled a patriotic collection of July Fourth-themed comics to share with you, celebrating everything from fireworks to freedom (with a side of grilling disasters and questionable firecracker practices!).
Cheers to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness! Wishing all of our readers a SAFE and FUN holiday!

Apple announces 25 billion songs sold on iTunes
Apple today issued an unexpected press release announcing that more than 25 billion songs have now been purchased and downloaded from the iTunes Store, setting a new record. In the press release, Apple SVP Eddy Cue thanked users for making iTunes the most popular music retailer in the world, and noted that the iTunes Store averages over 15,000 songs downloaded every minute.
The 25 billionth song was "Monkey Drums" (Goksel Vancin Remix) by Chase Buch and was purchased by Phillip Lüpke from Germany, who will receive a €10,000 iTunes Gift Card for the download. Apple previously publicized major music download milestones with public countdown contests, however, this milestone was reached without advance publicity or the promise of a prize. The last major music milestone to feature a prize was the 10 billion downloaded song mark, reached in late February 2010 and awarded a $10,000 iTunes Gift Card. Apple has recently focused more attention on app downloads, which have accelerated far faster than music downloads, hitting 25 billion in March 2012, then 40 billion less than a year later.

The Utility of Force in Gaza
12:54 PM, Dec 30, 2008 • By JOHN NOONAN
As Israel continues its retaliatory strikes against the Hamas stronghold in Gaza, so the left increases its collective j'accuse, specifically bemoaning the use of 'disproportionate force.'
The manner in which a nation conducts war, and achieves victory, can be as important as the war itself. Compare the conquests of the British Empire to that of the Mongols under Genghis Kan. Tactics and the utility of force matter, a point that hasn't been lost on modern, Western militaries.
The highly professional Israeli Defense Force, however, is nothing like the Mongol Horde. The IDF's campaign against Hamas is both legal and justified under ever major treatise on warfare, from the Geneva Convention to Thomas Aquinas' jus ad bellum. Israel is on firm ground here.
Observations that the action against Hamas constitutes a limited war, and should be conducted as such, are correct -- to an equally limited point. One of the principle problems with limited warfare is the frequent inability of the side with superior firepower to bring its force to bear in a manner quick enough to prevent the smaller, more agile force from responding, adjusting, and relocating. Israel's tactic of swift, sweeping air raids against Hamas' centers-of-gravity appears to have largely neutralized this trend.
For the left, this leads to clumsy fumbling over terms like 'disproportionate force.' In today's highly technological battlefield, disproportionate force (or killing a mosquito with a cannon) has as much to do with types of weapon platforms as it does numerical superiority. The Israelis, with their air-delivered precision-guided munitions, are using a scalpel -- not a broad sword. And it's a method that we've used ourselves frequently -- during the Clinton years as well -- in places like Serbia and Iraq. There's no clause in the Law of Armed Conflict or Geneva Convention which states that your enemy must first have an air force before you use your own, nor are there any rules that restrict Israel to using weapons that are of equal or lesser caliber than the ones which Hamas uses against Israeli civilians.
So this is a strange phenomena that leaves critics of Israel forced to create their own rules of warfare to better fit their narrative. It's an odd play for a crowd noted for their championing of global solutions and treaties to local problems.
For more, I highly recommend Noah Pollak's The Juicebox Mafia on Gaza.

Knowing that certain acidic foods and drugs like ASA may trigger gout attacks, can withdrawal from Nexium (which, during rebound at least, should elevate gastric acid levels) provide a similar trigger? I was in the final stages of Nexium cessation, was also on low-dose ASA and was likely dehydrated when my first gout attack occured. Perfect storm?
Withdrawal from Nexium: a potential trigger for gout?

What are you talking about withdrawal from nexium? Final stages of cessation? Who told you you had to wean off of it? Of course the acid in your stomach increases without nexium, but that shouldn't effect gout. You're not getting the acid in your stomach in your blood and that's where it would have to be to effect gout.

The Pirates and Reds are not liking one another right now
Aug 6, 2012, 12:31 PM EDT
On Friday, Andrew McCutchen was hit by a 101 mile-an-hour fastball by Reds' closer Aroldis Chapman. Then on Saturday, Reds starter Mike Leake hit Pirate Josh Harrison and barked at him. Yesterday Rod Barajas and Starling Marte were each hit by Reds pitchers.
The Pirates did not retaliate during A.J. Burnett's win yesterday. And Barajas explained why:
"If A.J. drills someone, he gets thrown out. What good is that going to do us?" Barajas — Burnett's personal catcher — asked. "Then, we have to go to our bullpen early with a long stretch of games coming up. That makes no sense. There is a time and a place for [retaliation]. Today was the time to win. We got that done."
G.M. Neal Huntington mentioned something about it too:
"The competitor in you wants immediate payback," general manager Neal Huntington said. "But there's a right time and a right way of doing things. Even then, [the retaliation] might not be as blatant as you would want it."
A.J. Burnett added "We haven't forgotten."
I find it interesting. Partially because there was none of that tit-for-tat baseball justice which you'd normally expect to see. Also because, if and when the Pirates do hit someone on the Reds the next time they meet, I wonder if these kinds of quotes will form the basis of a suspension, given that they clearly indicate some sort of intent for the future.
- whodeydaytonchapter - Aug 6, 2012 at 5:31 PM
I could see the Pirates getting upset about Chapman hitting your best player in that situation. Truth is a 101 MPH thump to the arm in that situation is a Reds win/win. 2 outs, bottom of the ninth and a closer that is untouchable? Why not get the .373 hitter a little banged up and off his game for the next two days? Also the strategy is sound because it worked (see NL Central standings). But the breaking ball that didn't break from Leak the next day was an over the top reaction by the Pirates. If the Bucks do this much crying over this, I can't wait to see what they do when the Cards get it together and steal their wild card spot.
- oruacat2 - Aug 6, 2012 at 6:42 PM
No mention of the extra shove that the Pirate baserunner gave the Reds pitcher covering 1B on that groundball during Saturday's game?
- oruacat2 - Aug 6, 2012 at 6:47 PM
Sorry, got my facts mixed up. This is how it went down:
"Then Pittsburgh pitcher Jared Hughes used extra-curricular activity to tag out Reds catcher Dioner Navarro, giving him a hefty shove after making the tag."
- oruacat2 - Aug 6, 2012 at 6:52 PM
From the Reds' website:
"Whether it was built-up frustration or an attempt at payback, the Pirates took things a step further in the eighth inning of the Reds' 5-4 win Saturday after reliever Jared Hughes surrendered what proved to be the game-winning run.
Catcher Dioner Navarro chopped a grounder toward first base. Hughes had a routine tag out but added a little extra shove on Navarro to end the play, answered by a swarm of boos from the Cincinnati crowd."
- oruacat2 - Aug 6, 2012 at 7:01 PM
BTW – this isn't exactly a "new" rivalry. Old school Reds and Pirates fans will remember that we've had a competitive history over the years – just not recently. Hell, just in my lifetime we beat Pittsburgh for the NL pennant in 1970, 1972, 1975, and 1990. The Pirates knocked us out of the 1979 playoffs. I like that this rivalry seems to have a new life.

Lol pirates fans . …first thing to talk about since bonds/Bonilla. Go away, your second place… Cards will prob catch you anyway. When votto and Phillips are back they can carry some cold bats. And with our pen. It's almost like the nasty boys. Go reds

Product description
When a tremendous spacecraft took orbit around the Earth's moon and began sending smaller landers down toward the North Pole, the newly arrived visitors quickly set up a permanent spaceport in Siberia. Their presence attracted many, and a few people grew conspicuously rich from secrets they learned from talking to the aliens. One of these men, Rick Schumann, established a tavern catering to all of the various species of visiting aliens, a place he named the Draco Tavern. From the mind of #1 "New York Times" bestselling author Larry Niven come twenty-six tales and vignettes from this interplanetary gathering place, collected for the first time in one volume, including: "The Subject Is Closed": A priest visits the tavern and goes one-on-one with a chirpsithra alien on the subject of God and life after death."Table Mannners: A Folk Tale": Rick Schumann is invited to hunt with five folk aliens, but he's not quite sure what their hunt entails, or if he will be the hunted."Losing Mars": In this previously unpublished tale, a group of aliens who call Mars and its moon home arrive at the tavern only to find that humans have mostly forgotten about their neighboring planet.

Review quote
"A must for Nivenites and just plain good reading for everyone else."--"Booklist "on "The Draco Tavern" "There are wise elder races and there are scamsters and folks who raise interesting questions. In some ways, the object-lesson stories remind one of pundits' political columns . Thought provoking.--"San Diego Union-Tribune" on "The Draco Tavern" "Brilliant . . . These stories are best taken a few at a time to savor their inventiveness."--"Publishers Weekly" on "The Draco Tavern" "Reads more like an episodic novel . There's joy and sadness and everything in between in these stories--which seem to have devised as vehicles for Niven to explore a wide variety of ideas and also happen to be about what it means to be human. One of the ways in which we learn about who we are is to see what we are not, and in this book there are many examples of what humans are not."--"Romantic Times Bookclub" on "The Draco Tavern" "
