That Machiavelli's name has become synonymous with cold-eyed political calculation only heightens the intrinsic fascination of "The Prince" the world's preeminent how-to manual on the art of getting and keeping power, and one of the literary landmarks of the Italian Renaissance. Written in a vigorous, straightforward style that reflects its author's realism, this treatise on states, statecraft, and the ideal ruler is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand how human society actually works.

About the Author
Niccolo Machiavelli was an Italian politician, diplomat, founding father of political science, and author of the preeminent political treatise, The Prince. Born in Florence, Italy, Machiavelli held many government posts over his lifetime and often took leading roles in important diplomatic missions. During his time visiting other countries and nation states, Machiavelli was exposed to the politics of figures like Ceasare Borgia and King Louis XII, experiences which would inform his writings on state-building and politics. Machiavelli s political career came to an abrupt end when the Medici overthrew Florence, and he was held as a prisoner under the new regime. Tortured for a short time, he was released without admitting to any crime or treason. At this point, Machiavelli retired and turned to intellectual and philosophical pursuits, producing his two major works, The Prince and Discourses on the First Ten Books of Titus Livy. He died in 1527 at the age of 58.
Niccolo di Bernardo dei Machiavelli ( 3 May 1469 - 21 June 1527) was an Italian historian, politician, diplomat, philosopher, humanist, and writer based in Florence during the Renaissance. He was for many years an official in the Florentine Republic, with responsibilities in diplomatic and military affairs. He was a founder of modern political science, and more specifically political ethics. He also wrote comedies, carnival songs, and poetry. His personal correspondence is renowned in the Italian language. He was Secretary to the Second Chancery of the Republic of Florence from 1498 to 1512, when the Medici were out of power. He wrote his masterpiece, The Prince, after the Medici had recovered power and he no longer held a position of responsibility in Florence.
"Machiavellianism" is a widely used negative term to characterize unscrupulous politicians of the sort Machiavelli described in The Prince. The book itself gained enormous notoriety and wide readership because the author seemed to be endorsing behavior often deemed as evil and immoral.
Dominic Baker-Smith is a professor emeritus of English Literature at the University of Amsterdam.
Praise For…
"[Machiavelli] can still engage our attention with remarkable immediacy, and this cannot be explained solely by the appeal of his ironic observations on human behaviour. Perhaps the most important thing is the way he can compel us to reflect on our own priorities and the reasoning behind them; it is this intrusion into our own defenses that makes reading him an intriguing experience. As a scientific exponent of the political art Machiavelli may have had few followers; it is as a provocative rhetorician that he has had his real impact on history." –from the Introduction by Dominic Baker-Smith

Re: Firefly reunion documentary
CRAP...why the Science Channel? I would have to pay an extra $50 a month for that band of channels on my cablesystem.
Stuff like this used to be on the now rather lame SyFy. This is almost as annoying as the History Channel moving its good shows (and leaving us with shit like pickers and ice road truckers and other reality crap) to the Military Channel, of course on the same band as Science Channel.
I hope when I move that we have a better cable system.

In the December issue of "Customer Service Newsletter,"
For instance, "the participative style is ideal when you have built your service team into a cohesive group and it can work on its own," Evenson says. "But if you are working with new employees, or with reps who aren't performing up to expectations, you might want to take a more controlling approach. And for those top reps who are really self-sufficient, you might take more of a passive role."
The trick is knowing which style makes sense for the situation, and knowing how to move back and forth from one style to the next when the need arises.
Additional information on understanding and improving your management style appears in the December issue of "Customer Service Newsletter."

The Initial Training Networks (ITN), part of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, offer early-stage researchers (ESR) the opportunity to improve their research skills, join established research teams and enhance their career prospects.
What' s in it for young researchers?
European Training Networks (ETN):
It takes two to tango but three to network. So, at least three participants from different countries (preferably up to 10) join together to propose a coherent programme for an ETN. The participants can be public or private universities, research organisations but also private companies, NGOs and international organisations. Each beneficiary must recruit and host at least one ESR and the involvement of organisation from different sectors is essential.
European Industrial Doctorates (EID):
In the case of an EID, only two participants from different countries are needed: one academic participant and one participant from the private sector. However, one of the conditions is that the researcher will have to be enrolled in a doctoral programme of the academic participant. The researcher will also spend at least 50 % of his/her time within the private sector.
Joint Doctoral Programmes (JDP):
At least three beneficiaries established in different countries join together to create a joint doctoral programme. They award a joint doctoral degree and share the recruitment of the researcher.
What does the funding cover?
All Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions have a bottom-up approach, including all domains of research and technological development. Applicants should make appropriate reference to interdisciplinary and newly emerging supra-disciplinary fields in their proposal.
Successful researchers are recruited for a period between 3 and 36 months.
Who can apply?
Participating organisations have until 9th April, 17:00 (Brussels time) to submit their proposals through the Participant portal. Please note that individual researchers are not eligible to submit a proposal for this call.
Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions are part of Horizon 2020, the biggest EU Research and Innovation programme ever with nearly €80 billion of funding available over 7 years (2014 to 2020).

Cemeteries - 'The Wilderness'
An understated gem of a recordMore on Various Artists
8 / 10 Never has a name been quite so misleading as the one Buffalo native Kyle J Reigle has chosen for his musical alter ego. By rights, Cemeteries should be a black-metal band covered in corpse paint and hurling disembowelled farm animals into their crowds. But what Reigle actually offers up is a beguiling and ethereal experience of gentle, witchy folk-pop, which feels like it should send bucketloads of dry ice tumbling out of the speakers as it plays. A bizarre marriage of M83's atmospheric, spooky electro and the harmonic brilliance of vintage, Beach Boys-esque '60s pop, this is an understated gem of a record.

Brutal Story at the End of the Tokugawa Shogunate
Samurai films have a curious knack for expressing compassionate, humanist ideals via soul-crushing bleakness and violence. One would be hard-pressed to find a bleaker, more violent indictment of the romance of the samurai — and the culture of violence in general — than director Tai Kato's blood-drenched and aptly named Brutal Story at the End of the Tokugawa Shogunate. This is samurai drama stripped entirely of any pretense, robbed of the myth of the noble samurai code, and devoid entirely of any sense of heroism. In the eyes of this film, the samurai of the historic Shinsengumi clan are brutish exploiters and backstabbers at best, and murderous, paranoid psychopaths at their worst. The Shinsengumi were an actual group of samurai, charged with keeping the peace in Kyoto and defending the Tokugawa Shogunate from threats both foreign and domestic — this being the period in which Japan had finally been pried open to contact with the Western world. In popular Japanese culture, the Shinsengumi have been portrayed as everything from heroic defenders of the Japanese heart to thuggish throwbacks mercilessly defending their own power at the expense of progress. Brutal Story at the End of the Tokugawa Shogunate is a particularly harsh look at them and at the entire concept of samurai.

Black Tight Killers
When we reviewed 3 Seconds Before the Explosion, we stated that it was one of two Nikkatsu Studio espionage films released onto the home video market in the United States, both starring studio mainstay Akira Kobayashi. We also said that 3 Seconds Before the Explosion, daft though it might have been, was the more conservative and conventional of the two. That's because the second espionage film, Black Tight Killers, was constructed out of some mad fever dream by director Yasuharu Hasebe and production designer Teruyoshi Satani after they stayed up all night at a psychedelic go-go cabaret, drunk on Suntory whisky and overdosing on a steady stream of pop art and spy movies. When they awoke the next morning, two things had happened. One, their clothes had vanished; and two, they had apparently made a movie about a photojournalist who gets tangled up with a gang of black leather clad go-go girl assassins who fling razor sharp 45rpm records and are armed with ninja chewing gum, among other things.
Buck Rogers in the 25th Century
There was a period, brief but never the less real, when we paid to see television shows in the theater instead of watching them for free on, you know, television. This started back when some crafty producer would take a couple episodes of a TV show and splice them into a single movie — even if the plots of the two episodes had almost nothing to do with one another. And in 1979, producer Glen A. Larson managed to get not one, but two pilot episodes released as feature films. Granted, these were substantially expensive and ambitious (in their way) pilots, but still. He was asking people to pay money to see something they'd see for free at home. He was able to do that because of Star Wars. And we did it. I did it. The first of them was Battlestar Galactica. The second was Buck Rogers in the 25th Century. When I saw them both in the theater I remember liking Battlestar Galactica, but Buck Rogers? Buck Rogers I loved. And years later I still love it. This movie/television pilot is also the reason I discovered Santa Claus doesn't exist.
Bay of Blood
I'm going to have to cram a bunch of history up front in this review, so if you already know most of it, please forgive me. I feel it sets the stage properly for those among you who aren't nerdy enough to have a vast and swelling knowledge of the ins and outs of British censorship efforts, Italian slasher-thriller movies, and the joyous day those two tastes were plunged together into a scrummy treat known as the "Video Nasties" list. Let me first take back to a time when Samantha Fox was still a fox (maybe she still is; I haven't seen her in years) and the world was just beginning to discover the pleasure of home video systems. England has always had a somewhat contentious relationship with cinema censorship, and certain types who like to get upset over idiotic things were worried about the fact that the rules governing the rating, licensing, and editing of films for release to British theaters had not been written in a language that would allow them to be applied equally to films distributed on video. This little lapse in the foresight of censorship laws to anticipate the invention and subsequent wildfire-like spread of VCRs meant that films previously cut or banned could be legally (more or less) distributed in uncut format on videotape. It seems like they could have solved this dilemma by simply adding "and videos, too" in biro at the end of the book of law, but that's not how England does things.
Blue Movie Blackmail
Blue Movie Blackmail is known by a variety of names, the original being Si può essere più bastardi dell'ispettore Cliff? My Italian is nonexistent and Google Translate isn't exactly helpful ("It may be more bastards Inspector Cliff?"), but I think the general gist of the name is something like 'Is anyone more of a bastard than Inspector Cliff?' When eventually looped into English (in a few cases by the Anglo cast themselves) it was released in the USA as the somewhat baffling Mafia Junction and in Britain as the rather more accurate Blue Movie Blackmail. It does also have the distinction of being shot mostly in London, so I may be able to relate some interesting titbits as a resident of these parts.

If you were one of the few who followed the joint Magic Lizard Twitter-thon that involved The Cultural Gutter, Die Danger Die Die Kill, WtF-Film, and Teleport City, you might recall that proclamations of Magic Lizard's status as the worst movie ever made were challenged — legitimately — by The Cultural Gutter, who maintained that even the deepest of wounds inflicted by Magic Lizard were mere surface abrasions when measured against the to-the-core cutting of Bela Lugosi Meets a Brooklyn Gorilla, a cheap and lazy starring vehicle for Martin and Lewis copycats Duke Mitchell (yes, the same Duke Mitchell who later went on to make Massacre Mafia Style) and Sammy Petrillo (yes, the same Sammy Petrillo who later went on to star in Doris Wishman's Keyholes are for Peeping). The movie had previously been experienced as one of Drive-In Mob's Tweet-alongs. And as you might guess from the title, Bela Lugosi shows up (though he barely seems cognisant of the fact) to earn himself a little more morphine money and does indeed encounter a gorilla from — but not in — Brooklyn. While the Cultural Gutter's Carol boasts writing about comics as her primary forte, she's no slouch when it comes to cinema, and so I did not take her challenge to Magic Lizard's throne lightly. In fact, I'd been hearing for years how awful Brooklyn Gorilla was from people possessed of substantial strength when it comes to tackling the very worst cinema has to offer.
Bloody Pit of Horror
If you're in a deploring mood, there is much to deplore in the sexual politics of 1960s men's magazines. But, putting aside the rather ungainly issue of the representation of women, can it truly be said that our newsstands' depiction of men has improved all that much in the ensuing years? To my eye, the typical men's magazine of today features a heavily photoshopped Ashton Kucher on the cover and, inside, an even more photoshopped spread of some skeletal romcom starlet in her underwear, along with a bunch of "fake it til you make it" columns on how to appear like less of an uncultured dick than you really are and some snarky article about how to nail the new temp in your office.
Regular readers to this site may have noticed my curious affection for the DTV martial arts flick. Thus it would be churlish of me to ignore Bloodmoon, a 1997 example of the genre, seeing as it features not one but TWO of my fellow Brits. A handful of Britkickers have made names for themselves as nasty roundeye bad guy types in Hong Kong martial arts films; the likes of Mark Haughton, Sophia Crawford and Jude Poyer have all spent time getting beaten on by Asian stars du jour. Probably the most successful of these is one Gary Daniels, a remarkable martial artist who has a Judge Dredd-style square jaw, the physique of Schwarzenegger and amazing kung fu/karate/kickboxing skills, coupled with the acting ability of a wooden badger. Daniels has appeared in some 30-odd films, but is still best known as the imposing 'Pony tail fighter' in Wong Jing's lame Jackie Chan vehicle City Hunter.
Blood of the Vampire
I just happened to throw this movie on the other day, not planning to review it, just in the mood for a bit of 50s gothic horror. The next day, the news broke of the sad death of the film's writer, Jimmy Sangster. As one of the small group responsible for The Curse of Frankenstein, Dracula (Horror of Dracula as it's known in the US) and The Mummy, Sangster helped change the face of horror movies. He penned many other excellent films both for Hammer as well as other studios, not to mention TV scripts and novels. He was also a witty and engaging speaker, happy to hold court on his life and work. He's one of those people who, although he lived to the ripe old age of 83, you can't help feel went too soon. So by way of a personal and entirely inadequate tribute, here's my review of Blood of the Vampire.

An Albuquerque couple came home to a rude surprise when they found a man sleeping naked in their bed.
According to Albuquerque police, the couple returned to their home, located on Indian School Road, after a shopping trip. The woman walked into the master bedroom and yelled to her husband when she noticed a man in the bed.
Officers entered the home and found Freddie Shelby, 31, nude beneath the blanket.
Shelby told police he was in the area looking for girlfriend's house. He removed a window screen to climb inside the house, where he removed his clothing and went to sleep. He told police he did not recognize the house.
Shelby has been charged with breaking and entering.

To what extent did Crabtree elevate Kaepernick vs. the extent that Kaepernick elevated Crabtree. I believe the main force was Kaepernick elevating Crabtree.

Take away the last 10 weeks of play away from Crabtree and how many people would care this much about his injury?

Phenomenal Example of This Popular Issue
In addition to its status as a transition design type and as the first San Francisco Mint Saint-Gaudens twenty dollar, the 1908-S boasts the lowest mintage in the series (22,000 pieces), trailing only the Ultra High Relief and the High Relief. As with many San Francisco dates, a considerable number of 1908-S twenties entered the channels of commerce, evidenced by about twice as many circulated pieces known than those in Uncirculated grades. In this regard, NGC and PCGS have graded, to date (7/11), a total of about 900 1908-S double eagles, roughly 600 in circulated grades and 300 Mint State coins. Most Uncirculated examples are concentrated in the MS60 to near-Gem range. Gem and finer specimens are quite rare.
Small to large hoards of 1908-S twenties are rumored to exist. Walter Breen, in his 1988 Encyclopedia states: "The report of a bag of 1,000 found in Central America has not yet been confirmed." David Bowers (2004), on the other hand, writes: "Thanks to the importations of the current generation, such coins (MS62-64) are much more available (today) than they were prior to the 1980s." Exceptional mint luster is the rule for the 1908-S, and that characteristic is abundantly evident on this coin. The surfaces are bright and frosted with even yellow-gold color. The striking details are complete, and the central figures of Liberty and the eagle are mark-free. Census: 6 in 66, 0 finer (5/11).

Originally written on Backyard Sports Blog | Last updated 1/29/13
The shortened NHL season is only in it's early stages, and the Dallas Stars goalie already has a top candidate for save of the year. Kari Lehtonen made a save that not only shocked me when I watched it, it faked out the announcers too. The puck seemed to ricochet off his shoulder and hang in the air for a couple seconds. Lehtonen didn't give up on it and decided to swipe his glove hand behind his back and snag it out of the air. Quite lucky, but quite awesome at the same time. The Blue Jackets would still go on to beat the Stars 2-1 in Columbus, but the Stars came out with the highlight of the night. Check out the save below.

Published by: Joe Lenane | Published Date: 5th October 2012
A weekly round-up of the latest industry news from Retail Newsagent magazine.
The NFRN intends to take legal action after furious retailers discovered they are being charged an extra £8.50 from this week by Menzies for supplies of News International titles.
NI decided to pull out of direct to retail distribution outside the M25 in August, handing deliveries over to national wholesalers Smiths News and Menzies Distribution.
Smiths is holding to the carriage charge template it introduced earlier this year, but Menzies is applying an extra flat rate charge regardless of value or volume for sending out the two extra titles on top of existing value-based templates set in August.
The rise affects 1,900 retailers including Paresh Patel of P&S Iken in Preston who said: "It was a real shock. It's totally disproportionate. Retailers all hate this rise."

Camelot is predicting a repeat of the sales stampede retailers enjoyed during the Olympics after unveiling a festive raffle to make 50 millionaires.
Draws on Christmas Day and New Year's Day will each see a guaranteed £1m dished out to 25 punters.
Sales director Duncan Malyon said the game would build on the huge success of its London 2012 100 millionaires raffle.
In an exclusive interview with RN, he also revealed that the application process for its 6,000 new terminals in independent shops has been completed.
The Office of Fair Trading has been accused of standing behind "legal waffle and case law" in defence of its decision not to order a review of the newstrade supply chain.
At a court hearing last Friday, the regulator maintained that the buying public would not benefit from an investigation of the market.
The tribunal was the result of a joint appeal by the NFRN and Association of Convenience Stores (ACS) who continue to call for a review by the Competition Commission to break up wholesaler monopolies.
The trade bodies argued that problems the OFT identified with magazine allocations and availability in its 2009 decision had not be solved.

Plans for minimum unit prices for alcohol in Scotland "have hit a wall of opposition" and any move to bring the measure in for the rest of the UK should be given a full 12-week public consultation.
That's the view of the Wine and Spirit Trade Association which noted the European Commission had joined Spain, Italy, Portugal, France and Bulgaria is lodging 'detailed formal opinions' on the Scottish government's plans, which will lead to delays in implementing the plan.
A consultation is due to start within weeks on bringing in minimum unit prices for England and Wales.
Newsagents in Sussex have reacted angrily to a "ludicrous" proposal by a local animal charity to get shooting and hunting magazines classed in the same category as pornographic titles.
Brighton-based group Animal Aid is seeking to compell retailers to put publications such as Sporting Gun and Shooting Times on the top shelf, to prevent these magazines falling into the hands of children.
However, Anjali Karpal, NFRN southern district vice president and owner of two convenience stores in West Sussex, criticised the group's actions during a show on Radio Sussex last month.
Speaking to RN, Mrs Karpal said: "It's ludicrous and not very fair on newsagents. There is no evidence to back up their claims and we are already limited on the amount of shelf space we have for magazines."

Happy Fourth of July! I'm putting off this weekend's reading list until tomorrow (but be sure to come back… it's a good one!) in favor of sharing a few fourth of July sales that are too good to miss! I stayed in the city for the weekend and have a low key day planned.. and then going over to my sister's apartment in Park Slope a bit later to celebrate and hopefully see some fireworks!

Reviews of Zephyrhills Brick & Concrete Patio Pavers
Zephyrhills, FL
I did hire them but they have not started the job yet . Going to start sometime the end of November. If they are as good doing the work as they are getting in touch with you and following up on everything I do think it will be just fine. let you know.
Zephyrhills, FL
By far one of the best experiences I have ever had in hiring a contractor to perform some work for me at home. Chris and the crew who did the installation of the brick pavers were excellent. Not only did they do the work in an ultra professional manner, they were courteous, friendly and responsive. The job was completed as contracted in as timely a fashion as the weather would permit. I am so proud of my new driveway and walkway and I get compliments daily from people who stop by just to tell me how great my driveway looks. I highly recommend Chris and will use him again when needed.
Wesley Chapel, FL
He did an excellent job. Our provious plan for this area of the house was a mess. Brazilian Pavers corrected our mistake and made it look great! I will habe them here for my next project no doubt. I have already recommended them to others.

Kansas City Royals (58-53) at Arizona Diamondbacks (49-64), 9:40 p.m.
Probable Starting Pitchers: Kansas City - Yordano Ventura (8-8, 3.50) Arizona - Josh Collmenter (8-5, 4.07)
(SportsNetwork.com) - Don't look now, but the Kansas City Royals are in the thick of it.
The surging Royals can further improve their position in the American League postseason chase on Wednesday night, when they return for the second game of a three-game series with the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field.
Kansas City has won 10 of its last 13 games after opening the series with a 12-2 victory on Tuesday night, in which it hit three home runs. The Royals had just one homer in their previous seven games and are dead last in the majors with 65.
"You score 10 runs off of three swings of the bat, you'll take it," manager Ned Yost said. "I'm not really (used to it), but I'll take it when I can get it."
The Royals have 39 hits in their last three games, the pitching staff has delivered to the tune of a 2.75 earned run average in the last 13 games and the bullpen has surrendered just three earned runs over the last 20 innings of work.
Add it all together and Kansas City is just a half-game behind Toronto for the final AL wild card playoff berth.
Taking the mound for KC on Wednesday is young right-hander Yordano Ventura, who scored a 6-3 win over Minnesota on Thursday after allowing two runs in seven innings and striking out seven.
He's struggled recently on the road, though, going 0-1 in his last two outings away from home with a 9.64 ERA after he'd pitched to a sub-2.50 ERA and won four of five decisions in his initial six starts away from home.
Ventura has never started against the Diamondbacks.
Kansas City has won five straight interleague road games and has won all but four of 13 games against National League foes this season. The Royals won just nine times in 20 games against the NL in 2013 and haven't won 10 or more interleague games in a season since 2008.
Arizona, meanwhile, has won just two of its last eight against the AL.
"This was not a good night for us all around," manager Kirk Gibson said after Tuesday loss.
The Diamondbacks start Josh Collmenter, who'll look for his first interleague win in his fifth interleague start while trying to improve a four-start stretch at home in which he's gone 2-0 with a 2.22 ERA.
He allowed three runs on four hits in 5 1/3 innings while getting a no- decision in Arizona's 7-4 defeat of Pittsburgh on Thursday, and has won just once in his last five outings.
Collmenter has never started against Kansas City.
On Tuesday, Nori Aoki's grand slam helped fuel an eight-run fifth inning and the Royals defeated the Diamondbacks. Billy Butler finished 4-for-5 with a three-run homer and two runs scored and Salvador Perez also drove in three runs with a homer among his three hits for the Royals.
Danny Duffy (6-10) won his first game in his last six starts after surrendering just one run on three hits with seven strikeouts in five innings.
Mark Trumbo provided two hits and an RBI for Arizona. Starter Wade Miley (7-8) gave up 10 runs on nine hits and three walks over 4 2/3 frames.

I know my Cardinals took two of three, but I have a feeling it's going to be a back and forth all summer. They're two very strong teams who should win plenty of games. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if both make postseason play... once again.

I know my Cardinals took two of three, but I have a feeling it's going to be a back and forth all summer. They're two very strong teams who should win plenty of games. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if both make postseason play... once again.
Still early, but taking 2 after that ugly loss sure helps.
Totally agree.
With the exception of one inning, that series was a bloodbath in St Louis' favor
Cards fans chatting with each other about how good they are on a REDS message board.PRICELESS.
No Post Dispatch Cardszone?
There's the difference between us right there. Most Cardinal fans I know give you Reds your due respect. Me, I like talking baseball with other fan bases and will be on the Brew Crew board tonight. My mom was a Cincy native and I still have kin there (mostly elderly now, but still kinfolk).
Mike your one of the good ones.
I hate the cardinals and I dislike most of their fans....with that said, we have some good Cardinal fans over here that frequent....Mike is one of the good guys.
I am so sick of reading about Matt Adams and Trevor Rosenthal on a Reds message board.
I have been reading this message board for the past 10 years and the increase in Cardinals fans posting on this website is very bizarre to me. Answer me this:
How does the self-proclaimed "best fans in sports" have such terrible fan forums that fans leave and come to a rival team's message board to talk baseball?
As for the " best fans in baseball " moniker, it's misinterpreted (and tiring). It has more to do with St.Louis' overall appreciation of baseball and willingness to applaud good plays by opposition players.
The Reds are formidable, and I picked them to win the division. The 2 offenses are pretty much even. The Cardinals starters get a slight edge. The Reds have a better bullpen. The benches are close. What gives the Reds the edge (IMHO), their defense is much better and they run the bases better.
What might decide the division is depth. The Redbirds have already lost their ace, their starting SS and their closer. They let Lohse walk. Yet, they're in the hunt and have the deepest farm system in MLB.
If the Reds stay healthy, they'll be tough to beat. Losing Cueto hurts, but they should get him back by the ASB.
Either way, should be fun.
Round 2 starts tonight.
Big series for both clubs. Each need to pick up ground on the Buccos who, for what I believe is the third year in a row, come out of the gate playing well.
that was some old school baseball right there. should be another good series.
I assume when it all shakes out it'll be the Reds and Cards again, but right now it's pretty much a cluster(bomb) in the division. Just one game separating first from fourth. Good win for the Reds last night, but I don't like the pitching match-up in game two. Garcia owns the Reds, with 8 career wins already -- and probably would be 9 if not for the Reds scoring 11 runs off the STL bullpen the first time we played them this year.

Hence the quest for ten-year balance, and the promise of pain on every front except (of course) marginal tax rates.
That marginal revenue doesn't equal marginal cost for profit maximization?
Without IP, classic economic tells us that the marginal price would naturally quickly fall towards zero.
1570s, "written on the margin," from Medieval Latin marginalis, from Latin margo (see margin). Sense of "of little effect or importance" first recorded 1887. Related: Marginally.
marginal mar·gin·al (mär'jə-nəl)
Of, relating to, located at, or constituting a margin, a border, or an edge.
Marginally within a lower standard or limit of quality.
Relating to or located at the fringe of consciousness.
1. Extremely small. "A marginal increase in core can decrease GC time drastically." In everyday terms, this means that it is a lot easier to clean off your desk if you have a spare place to put some of the junk while you sort through it.
2. Of extremely small merit. "This proposed new feature seems rather marginal to me."
3. Of extremely small probability of winning. "The power supply was rather marginal anyway; no wonder it fried."

Bernard Pollard Feels Replacement Officials Are 'Starstruck' by Joe Flacco, Real Officials Need to 'Get Back Quick'
Originally written on NESN.com | Last updated 9/20/12
The NFL's replacement officials are no good for football, no one is debating that -- well, no one but Cortland Finnegan. But like many players and fans of the game, Baltimore Ravens safety Bernard Pollard has had enough. Pollard, who might be best known for ending Tom Brady's 2008 season and injuring Rob Gronkowski's ankle in the AFC Championship Game last season, joined the Toucher and Rich Morning Show on 98.5 The Sports Hub on Thursday to talk about Sunday night's showdown with the Patriots as well as his utter disdain for the replacements referees.

If Francisco, Stubbs, Alonso, Heisey, Sappelt, Mez, Frazier, Cozart are all here and healthy, what will the lineup look like?
C - Hanigan/Mez platoon. Ramon walks in free agency.
1B - Votto, Votto and more Votto.
2B - Phillips. I can't see them not picking up this option unless some team overwhelms them with a trade, which again, I don't see happening.
3B - Rolen (RH)/Francisco (LH). Rolen has one more year on his contract, is coming off surgery, and is basically untradable. Francisco is looking good this September both offensively and defensively, and should be the heir apparent.
SS - Definitely a question mark. I liked what I saw from Cozart in his short stint, but he is coming off injury and was unproven when he got injured. I don't see Janish back with the club next season because of the Francisco platoon situation plus he can play LF, and with Cairo again under contract. I see Renteria possibly back next year, which wouldn't upset me because I think he has had more big hits than people give him credit for. He definitely gives more offense than Janish ever will. And I see Frazier or Valaika possibly getting the nod over Renteria.........so this might be the most interesting development of next year's Spring Training if no trades are made.
RF - Bruce, Bruce, and more Bruce.
CF - Stubbs, Stubbs, and more Stubbs if no trades are made.
LF - Heisey (RH), Alonso (LH) platoon? Maybe.
Starting Pitchers (5) - Arroyo, Cueto, Leake, Bailey, Volquez or Wood.
Relief Pitchers (7) - Masset, Bray, Ondrusek, Arredondo, Cordero?, Lecure, Boxberger? (Chapman goes to Louisville to become a starter?)(Burton?)
Catchers (2) - Hanigan, Mez
14 players so far. 11 spots left.
IFers - Votto, Phillips, Rolen, Cozart, Cairo,
IFers/OFers - Francisco (3B, LF), Alonso (1B, 3B, LF), Frazier (3B, SS, 2B, LF)
OFers - Bruce, Stubbs, Heisey
This makes Sappelt the odd man out.
Against righthanded pitchers:
2B Phillips
RF Bruce
1B Votto
3B Francisco
LF Alonso
CF Stubbs
SS Cozart
C Mez/Hanigan
Against lefthanded pitchers:
CF Stubbs
2B Phillips
1B Votto
LF Heisey
3B Rolen
RF Bruce
SS Cozart
C Mez/Hanigan
