Luke 8:11-15New King James Version (NKJV)
The Parable of the Sower Explained
11 "Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. 12 Those by the wayside are the ones who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved. 13 But the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who believe for a while and in time of temptation fall away. 14 Now the ones that fell among thorns are those who, when they have heard, go out and are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to maturity. 15 But the ones that fell on the good ground are those who, having heard the word with a noble and good heart, keep it and bear fruit with patience.

My sil will be having a scheduled c section in March, we will be moving across country at the end of march. I am currently taking classes at the college for my RN and will be leaving a month and a half early to move before the semester is up. I will have to do all of that work on top of keeping up with the regular schedule tests /dissections and labs, thankfully the teacher and department is allowing me to do this. They didn't have too.
Dhs sister wants us to be there for her c section (third child. My dh wasn't there for her 2nd) but with the move coming up (we are doing a dity move) and me already playing keep up with my classes I told her that we probably are not going to make it. Not to mention we used all of Dhs leave with the last visit there and us all getting the flu. MIL and SILknow seem are upset, granted they came the day I had my daughter but they invited themselves. I had my mother and sister there which I wanted since they live across the countryI (and they know they ar there to help me with cleaning, cooking and anything else I need) and since I was breastfeeding I wanted to establish a connection with my child and not have to worry about entertaining guests or passing my child around while I was getting the hang of being a ftm. Sil had brought her two kids with and they aren't the best behaved also. Now it seems that she is trying to guilt trip DH into packing up our 10 month old, making the 8 hour drive there and coming back (all in a two day period since DH has no leave). Also she demanded we all have to get a certain shot if we are going to see the baby. Including my LO.
I have never heard of the shot before and the fact that she brought her sick, coughing ds with after i had my LO is just frustrating in itself too.
Soooo... I guess my question is what the hell do I say or do to keep my cool and stand my ground about not being able to come up there without starting any drama or them claiming I'm keeping dh and lo away from her new cousin. I feel like I already have a shit ton on my plate to worry about and this just adds to the stress. What would you ladies do?! TIA

Kingdom Age - Mage sketches by dustsplatWatch
©2012-2016 dustsplat
Some sketches i did for the Mage character. As you can see, some changes were made along the way.
Stunning ...
very good !
I have to say I actually prefer the black-and-white sketches to the finished piece. I adore the magic effect on the right one
I think that the visual effects in the right character are handled very well, I like the fade happening to the legs and the over concept of the figures.
Awesome !!
How do you make the magic effect ?

We track four people on their journey.
A look at the history of France's black community
13 Jul 2011 20:49 GMT | Science & Technology, US & Canada, China, United States
Jillian C York is a California-based writer and free speech activist, currently serving as the Director for International Freedom of Expression at the Electronic Frontier Foundation in San Francisco. Her work is centred on the intersection of technology and policy.
With the beta release of Google+ this past week, the global tech community is already ruminating on how the new service might be a "game changer" for social media. A plethora of new features - including a video chat platform for up to ten people - ensure that Google+ will be a success, at least in certain circles.
Along with the initial excitement, concerns about the platform are arising, particularly around its privacy and user policies. In 2010, Google launched social platform Buzz, only to face a class action lawsuit over its exposure of users' email contacts (full disclosure: the organisation where I work, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, was among the recipients in the settlement).
While so far, there have been few complaints - and in fact,
While so far, there have been few complaints - and in fact, heaps of praise - as to how Google+ has dealt with privacy, there are concerns as to what happens when a user runs afoul of the platform's Terms of Service. Given how intertwined the social platform is with the rest of Google's products (and how reliant so many of us are on Google products), breaking the rules on Google+ could have serious implications.
Following the rules
Google offers two sets of rules for users of the Google+ service: Its overarching Terms of Service (ToS), which apply to all of Google, and a set of Community Standards specific to the social networking site.
The community standards ban a handful of behaviors: no nudity or hate speech, no impersonating other users, no spam malware or phishing. They also warn users against copyright violation, offering a clear procedure for complainants to file a DMCA notice.
While the rules should be quite clear to users, what isn't clear is the ramifications of breaking them. On Facebook, users who break the rules have often seen their accounts closed down entirely. On YouTube, which is owned by Google, users who post inappropriate content are usually given a warning or two before losing access to their accounts for a period of time, or sometimes permanently.
The latest Google service is too new for anyone to determine what the result of a minor ToS violation might be, but one example making rounds in the blogosphere is hopefully no indicator.
Lose one service, lose them all?
In compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), US-based web companies must get parental permission for users under 13 years of age. Because that process is typically onerous, most platforms, including Google, limit their services to users aged 13 and up.
Last week, an underage Gmail user in the Netherlands signed up for a Google+ account, only to be kicked off of all Google services for the ToS violation. According to a blog post written by the child's father, the message from Google states that the young boy's account will be deleted within 29 days if he cannot provide proof of age.
While this is perhaps an extreme example - after all, Google is legally obligated to act within the restrictions of COPPA - it is one that could have serious implications for anyone who breaks the rules, intentionally or otherwise.
The tradeoff to this risk is the convenience of having one's services - email, documents, social networking, and more - in one place. And yet, break the rules on one and you could lose them all.
It remains to be seen, of course, whether Google will take that route. More likely is that most Google+ violations will garner a warning, or perhaps an eviction, from that service alone. But more egregious offenses could cause one to lose years of documents or emails.
'The Googlisation of Everything'
For some, this might raise larger questions about the utility of using one service for everything. Author Siva Vaidhyanathan, whose book The Googlisation of Everything was released earlier this year, has called Google a "monopolist" in the space of web-based advertising, noting that "we are Google's product, not its customers".
It is presumably because of this that Google seeks to dominate so many markets, from web search to email, and now social networking. And while Vaidhyanathan is quick to point out that web-based advertising is the only space in which Google is truly a monopolist, Google's ability to monetise just about any product could see it beat out its competition in the long haul.
Google's philosophy has always been "don't be evil", but critics abound who see the company as just that. Still, Google is often first to fess up to its errors, such as it famously did in 2010 when it stopped censoring search results in China after four years of kowtowing to the Chinese government's censorship demands.
Google+ may seek to replicate - or more accurately, improve - the social networking model made famous by predecessors MySpace and Facebook. But if it succeeds, it will have done so for a reason: likely not as a matter of convenience, but because of superior practices and policies.

SMDC CG guest speaker at law enforcement graduation
June 24, 2014
By Carrie E. David (SMDC/ARSTRAT)

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. -- The U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command/Army Forces Strategic Command's commanding general spoke recently to a group of men and women who are serving their community and country in a different way than he does.
Lt. Gen. David L. Mann, USASMDC/ARSTRAT comming general, was the guest speaker at the Huntsville Police Academy's 53rd Session Basic Class graduation at Columbia High School June 20.
"To the newest members of the Huntsville Police Depart: congratulations, and well done!" Mann said. "Frankly, and I mean this very sincerely, I view police officers as heroes. And I mean that. I want to say thank you for what you do on behalf of me and my family and all the families of this great community.
"I think there are a lot of similarities between being a Soldier and serving as a police officer," Mann continued. "Especially when you consider the values we share. There's a strong correlation between our chosen professions."
Twenty-five men and women graduated to become Huntsville police officers. They are: Joseph Batten, Jonathan Boyd, Tony Bryant, Dustin Clark, Craig Delgado, Zane Dutton, Jeffery Franks, William Frost, Gerald Gambino, Thomas Gargulinski, Lee Glaser, Kylene Gross, Eric Kuhnkey, Aimee McAlister, Paul Nordan, April Payne, Allison Peterson, Brett Ramsey, Mercedes Rugart, Hudson Slater, Jason Toney, Matthew Troncone, James Umoeka III, Jason Vanderbrink, and Timothy Welch.
"Today each of you is going to take an oath to protect and defend this great community," Mann said. "That oath is to serve a greater purpose and to live up to your core values of professionalism and accountability.
"You should be proud of yourselves. Take pride in the fact that very few folks could have made it through the training that you went through," he said. "There's an old military expression -- many wish to be like you but few compete and far fewer succeed. On behalf of an old Soldier and a member of this community, thank you so very much."
The class' training lasted from Feb. 17 to June 20, and their class motto is "Never Settle; Strive for Perfection."

The last man delivers
May 5, 2012, 5:07 AM EST
Associated Press photo
Wilson Ramos celebrates his game-winning single in the bottom of the 11th.
As the Nationals' designated backup catcher for the night, Wilson Ramos knew he could lounge around in the dugout, pop sunflower seeds into his mouth and goof around with teammates. But as this game progressed, as the Nationals and Phillies kept trading blows with neither side able to deliver the knockout punch, Ramos began to realize his services might actually be needed at some point.
Sure enough, as the bottom of the 11th arrived, manager Davey Johnson got Ramos' attention at the other end of the dugout and held up five fingers. Translation: If reach the No. 5 spot in our lineup in this inning, you're hitting for the pitcher.
And just like that, Ramos transformed from his lazy-night-off mindset to emergency pinch-hitter mode.
"In that moment, I just take my batting gloves and [say]: 'OK, I'm the man,'" he said. "Go out and hit the ball hard."
Which is exactly what he did. With the bases loaded and two outs in a 3-hour, 42-minute marathon, Ramos fell behind in the count 0-2, then took a ball, then fouled two more pitches off before drilling a slider from Phillies reliever Michael Schwimer over shortstop Jimmy Rollins' head.Read more »

not gonna lie, i got so frusterated that i had to take a break around the middle of the game (5th/6th ish) then came back in the 8th. not beautiful by any means..except a walk off and beating the phillies…but a win nonetheless. but we MUST hit better, considering how we did against an emergency starter/AAA pitcher.
- Scott from Burke - May 5, 2012 at 5:22 AM
I was curious about the relationship between the two catchers considering they both are fighting to start and have pretty equal skill sets…you would think there would be a rivalry…the post-game celebration showed the two are close. Nice celebration…all they need to do is win one of the next two to take the series…take the next two and confidence will be sky high.

Just finished watching the game (the MLB.tv replay, as I had a gig at my daughter's school earlier). Wonderful win, lots of excitement (positive and negative). Two (fairly obvious) thoughts: (1) Leaving 20+ runners on base isn't the way to win ballgames; the Nats were lucky in several senses, but especially in that a loss with so many left-on-base would have been devastating psychologically. (2) Lots of chatter on this site about what to do with Harper when Morse returns, what to do with the rotation when CMW returns, etc., but I think Davey's most immediate issue is what to do with Lombardozzi and Espinosa when Zimmerman returns. Davey's past praise of Espinosa notwithstanding, unless Espinosa really picks up his game over the rest of the Phillies series, can he really send Lombardozzi back to the bench and leave Espinosa in the line-up? Hard to imagine. In any event, grateful for the win despite the angst it produced.

- NatsFirin'BBs - May 5, 2012 at 11:08 AM
Last night, it was the lack of situational hitting that plagued the Nats. I think they had the bases loaded at least three times (once with less than 2 outs with nothing to show for it), and had 13 hits, 7 walks and a hit batter. They were only able to scratch across three runs with all those base runners, which is obviously a problem. Though when you look at the at bats, they are getting better. Guys are hitting the ball on the screws. They'll start to fall.

I will not try and smuggle in the Maalox and bourbon and hopefully we will just get ahead early and cruise. Hrod has pitched in 3 straight, I have to think Burnett will actually close with Stammen going long if needed. Did anyone get an explanation why the philthy's left that guy in for over 50 pitches? Not upset mind you but certainly they must have had other options.Go Nats!!

Another joyous occasion that cries out for the fireworks we used to have. That lame horn just doesn't convey a happy feeling. In fact, in our section it sounds like a prolonged Booo which is what we thought it was at first.My understanding is that it is supposed to be something distinctive for Nats Park and show the connection with the Military/Navy Yard. It's time to rethink that idea. Bring back some type of fireworks, use virtual fireworks, release balloons, or use a small cannon. Must be something creative they could do.Looking forward to today's game!
- MicheleS - May 5, 2012 at 11:31 AM
No bloodshed in my area. Only 1 instance where it got testy, but then the usher came down and sat behind the Phillies fan that was getting a little rowdy (Where's your ring was his chant).Anyway.. I agree, McCatty needs to have a wire on him. Whatever he said to Henry worked. I was really hoping for a bourbon and Maalox at that point. Overall a great night!!! GYFNG! Let's win today!!!!
- MicheleS - May 5, 2012 at 11:34 AM
Carol.. It's a submarine horn. I think it's called a Klaxon (Navy Nats can confirm). I actually love it. No fireworks because 1.. the neighbors don't like it and 2.. when you shoot off fireworks, make sure the Fire Chief doesn't get hit with debris (an unconfirmed report is that he got hit with something one time and was not happy)

Hate to post so many times but I am so excited about this team. Just read about Wang going 6 innings and really want insight into what people here think Davey will do. I know 6 men can't start, that has been hashed and re-hashed. Will they really move Detwiller to the pen? It's just crazy to have this kind of pitching.My guess is that Wang will get at least two starts and if he is lights out (how can he be better then Detwiler?), then I am guessing they will keep Ross in the pen. I hate to mess with success but look at what Wang has done in the past. Again, its a long way from 2007 to 2012 but he has worked hard and he was one of the dominant pitchers in baseball at one time. Does anyone remember other teams having too many pitchers? Go Nats and I will just be a reader now.

What a change from past years and that Stan Kasten induced low point for the franchise of drunken tour bus after tour bus rolling into the park.The Philly fans that did come were just the local DC based guys. No drunken hooligans. No drunken women taking leaks in public to avoid Porta Potty lines (yes I saw that more than once on opening day).We have arrived. With a lot of help from Nats front office who finally saw a problem and did something about it. That is….winning is important and having a home team feel to the park is more important than selling beer to already drunk out of town trouble makers.Stan Kasten was sooooo wrong on that. Mark was so wrong on that opening day two and yes I have not forgotten that he still maintains to this day that is was not that bad and something like 50% Philly fans…….WRONG MARK…if you had bothered to get out of the press box that day and walk around the park…..90% drunken abusive Philly fans. Still the worst day in Nats History and one that was self inflicted by a short sighted focus on money first that killed this teams potential fan base for years.

I am moving one from all that just like the team.

As an ST who suffered through the Opening Day 2010 disaster and saw three wins over the Phils here last year (Nix hit-and-catch and the twoAugust rain delay, walkoff wins) that were not pleasant experiences until the end, I have to hand it to Andy Feffer — you did real good, guy! Banning those whole section-dominating, drunken bus loads of nasty thugs was the best decision you could make because it shows the Nats management now values building OUR fan base for the winning years ahead over the six pieces of silver in a few thousand extra tickets and beer sales.And the fans mostly came through by showing up and drowning out the intruders, which was a pretty big deal for those who had experienced the past couple years of these experiences. Though outside of some great cheers when Harp came up, they didn't do the kind of rally-supporting "Let's go Nats" cheers that might have helped push that extra run across much earlier. The players do notice, looking at their quotes today.Anyway, a huge step towards building a winning fan base, and well-deserved kudos to Nats management for turning that corner.
- NatsJack in Florida - May 5, 2012 at 12:09 PM
D'Gourds….. Amen, brother. I usually like to watch Friday night games at my favorite watering hole but last night I wanted the sound so I stayed home. I had to put the mute on he was so bad.And JayB…. we are in total agreement on opening day 3 seasons ago but I hope you mean that 90% of the Philly fans were drunk because it was closer to a 50/50 split overall. And Mark is fully aware of how bad it was.
- NatsJack in Florida - May 5, 2012 at 12:11 PM

Werth still looks like an old lady up there and swings like a rusty gate. His strike-out average is about what his batting average should be. Great game. There were a few errors but we won a game we needed to. These wins over the Phils will start to keep their fans north of the border.
- Steady Eddie - May 5, 2012 at 12:17 PM
JayB — do yourself a favor and allow yourself to let it go. NO ONE can undo the past but we now have a management that gets it at least about this, that making season ticket holders feel unwelcome and threatened in their own park in games against their chief rivals is not a good thing, and a winning team in attitude as well as record. We're in a good moment, man, and doing it right now without our three best hitters! All moments are transitory, so just let yourself enjoy this one, and hopefully it'll continue to be a very LONG moment.
- sjm308 - May 5, 2012 at 12:22 PM
OK – one more postThat opening day game is absolutely the worst experience as a fan I have ever experienced. Interesting that the best was Strasburg's first game. Guess that shows my bias. (Vasquez beating UNC almost single handed was my 2nd favorite "in-house" moment).Like others, I shunned Philly games after that debacle. I also watched urination, vulgar slurs etc. and getting crushed did not help, I think the final was something like 11-1. That is now all in the past. No matter who wins today it will be an exciting game for me and I am glad I will be there. Mick – we play the O's 6games each year and always have with interleague. I am wondering if that will change with the new formations.NatsJack and D-gourd. Painfully, I must agree. I love Johnny and know him a little and this might be out of his wheelhouse. So many mistakes, I had to go to the radio even though that kind of ruins the moment with it being out of sync. JayB – interesting psycho-analysis on a blog. Glad you are slowly coming around but do you have to get a dig in on Mark when ever you can? I am pretty sure Mark is a big boy and realizes that things were not great that day. Hate to go Zen on you but that anger you carry can't be helpful. Just enjoy the ride and keep the glass of Maalox and bourbon half full.Go Nats!!

And MicheleS — agree with you on the horn. While I did like the fireworks, the horn is cool too, and it's distinctive and it's OURS. It's also a good way to recognize and honor not just e Navy down the street but uniformed men and women in the military more broadly, which is especially appropriate for a DC team.
- JayB - May 5, 2012 at 12:22 PM
In my Season ticket section it was 90% Philly Fans and 99% were rude and completely Drunk.Mark still maintains as I guess you do Njack that the park was %50 – %50 that day……we can agree to disagree………Showers of BOOOO's for Zimm and his gold glove, silver slugger pre game award was Stan Kasten Caused…..9 inning later…..this team's front office decided to denied it was a problem or that they had anything to do with it…..but that is the last I will post on that….ever I hope!
- Steady Eddie - May 5, 2012 at 12:27 PM
JayB — Stan Kasten is gone and good riddance to him too! Cheers for Andy Feffer!
- NatsNutitude - May 5, 2012 at 12:28 PM
agreed Steady E about Feffer hitting this one out of the…ok, he did a really great job. The whole campaign was just ballsy, sending a message not only to Philly but challenging the local fan base too. Of course, everything looks shiny this morning. One down, two to go. See you at the ballpark.
- NatsJack in Florida - May 5, 2012 at 12:31 PM
That's probably why we will disagree. My section that day had about 20% Philly fans and they were mostly civil. I know there were whole sections on the scoreboard level that were mostly Philly fans so it's easy to see how there are varying opinions but overall, 90% is a bit exagerated.
- MicheleS - May 5, 2012 at 12:35 PM
JayB.. please let it go… We have a really good team and snipping at Mark just seems petty.Enjoy the ride…Barkeep I need my morning dose of Koolaid! I am heading off to the park now!!!!GYFNG!!!!
- JayB - May 5, 2012 at 12:36 PM
fair enough….Harper's dive for the fool ball was right in my new seats lap….I am loving his guy. We have not had a player go all out all the time with talent….ever….he is the heart of the team already. Just what this team needs. No fear at the plate. Ice water in his veins and appropriate emotions on the field. Love Zimm but this is Bryce's team already.
- NatsLady - May 5, 2012 at 12:36 PM
According to Kilgore, Rizzo said you have to throw away the development curve when it comes to Harper. I hope I can find a transcript of that session, because I tried the C-Span link someone posted here and all I got was buffering. Apparently Rizzo did a great job, including a dig at the movie "Moneyball"–which I was planning to watch as soon as it came up on Netflix, but maybe I should join our fearless GM in his boycott.

I think we can all agree that whatever the % in our immediate areas (it was more like 75 or 80% Philly thugs in our section, at least half of them anything but civil), it was obnoxious, intolerable, and inexcusable.And now it's history in every way.Go get 'em, Gio, blow'em back to Broad Street! GYFNG! Best 25 get and stay healthy!
- natsfan1a - May 5, 2012 at 12:42 PM
Johnny seems like a great guy, but I, too, winced at his PBP. In fact, I told my husband that I'd rather take my chances with FP on the call (not that I don't enjoy FP as a color guy, because I do).Re. the submarine horn, which I have grown to like, I dredged up an explanatory post from NNF (below).Navy Nats Fan said… This post is in response to the many "submarine horn" comments on the Series Preview post, but I am cross-posting it here since that thread is probably close to petering out. The "submarine horn" is most commonly referred to as a Klaxon by those of us who have served on submarines. Its actual name is the Diving Alarm and it is sounded twice when submerging the submarine (The Chief of the Watch announces "Dive, Dive," sounds two blasts on the Diving Alarm, and then repeats "Dive, Dive"). The other time it is sounded is during an Emergency Surfacing procedure, when the submarine releases high pressure air into the ballast tanks, expelling the water (ballast), and causing the submarine to rapidly ascend to the surface. In this case, it is sounded three times. I believe this is the event the Nats PR staff is trying to evoke. You may remember the USS DALLAS executing an emergency surface in Hunt for Red October (Tim Curry saying the submarine was being scared out of the water). Here's a short video showing what it looks like at the end. The name Klaxon is from the company that made the horns for early automobiles and submarines. The wikipedia article suggests that the name originally came from the ancient Greek word "klazo" which means "shriek." Here's a video of an actual Klaxon being sounded. For those looking to install ringtones, the best .wav file I could find is located here, but it's only two blasts vice three. I have a klaxon I bought off Ebay, installed it in my garage, and use it for a dinner bell when our kids are playing outside. Perhaps I'll start sounding it for home runs and victories when I'm watching the game at home. I love the Nats. My neighbors love me. June 17, 2011 4:32 PM

- NatitudeLady - May 5, 2012 at 12:47 PM
FP can be annoying at times, but the other day he gave an excellent demonstration of what "framing the pitch" means and how a catcher can make a close call go your way. It's a sort of glove-flip and he showed all four possibilities. Wrong way is to drag or slide the ball into the strike zone, making it clear to the umpire it was a ball.
- Ann Ominous - May 5, 2012 at 12:53 PM
"Another joyous occasion that cries out for the fireworks we used to have. That lame horn just doesn't convey a happy feeling. In fact, in our section it sounds like a prolonged Booo which is what we thought it was at first."I disagree completely. I love the horn. It is great in the ballpark, but also can be heard loud and clear on the TV and radio broadcasts. It lives on in every replay. The fireworks were okay in the ballpark, but you could not see them on TV or hear them on the radio. Once shot off, they were gone like a fart in the wind, as Jayson Werth might say.As for Johnny Holliday, he's fine on the pregame/postgame shows, but as a play-by-play guy he's old and tired. I can only imagine how bad it must have been in an 11-inning game last night. Glad I was at the ballpark. I'll be out there again today and tomorrow's game is on ESPN, so hopefully that means I'll miss Holliday this time around. Will Carpenter be back Tuesday?
- natsfan1a - May 5, 2012 at 12:56 PM
Yes, he's due back on Tuesday (at daughter's graduation this weekend).
- NCNatsie - May 5, 2012 at 1:05 PM
I read in Kilgore this morning that Lombo is our emergency catcher. Not Harper, a catcher all his life???
- Joe Seamhead - May 5, 2012 at 1:13 PM
My wife and I went to the game last night and it was so nice to have a huge majority of the fans be rooting for the Nationals. It was a pleasant change of pace from the past few years when our "friends" from the north came down and ruined the experience for so many of our fan base, to the point to where many said that they would no longer attend Phillie games.We never bought into avoiding the Phils games, rather we always said that it was our park, dammit. So, I take my hat off to Mr. Feffer's efforts and feel like he deserves a round of applause from the Nat's faithful.I also just read the game blog from last night and have to say there are a handful of posters that seem to go out of their way to spoil an otherwise wonderful venue that is being provided for us. The bratiness and personal digs are perceived by this Grumpy Old Man of Baseball as being just plain classless, or put another way, very South Philly like. Just another Joe Seamhead editorial.
- baseballswami - May 5, 2012 at 1:15 PM
My bitterness from "that day" stems from the fact that I couldn't even get tickets. My son and I thought we would make it an event – barbecued, settled in front of the tv, only to hear Zim getting booed as he got his awards. Last year we went to the Lannan/Nix-catch 1-0 game, which was awesome, but the PH fans had shirts reading "Citizen's Bank South" — ticked me off royally. I know we all have to let it go – but it just makes me seethe. I also know that the real way to handle it is to win, which we have – a lot, but that doesn't seem to have sunk in yet. Watching last night did a lot to help – I can't attend this weekend, and I was a little nervous, but last night was pretty cool to watch and hear.I hope the rest of the weekend goes well also. Johnny Holiday is a college football guy who plays Ed McMahon to Ray Knight's Johnny Carson – he is a straight man. He is not a baseball pbp guy. For all you who don't like Carp – you will be happy to see him. Ray Knight usually fills in but all he can do is praise Davey Johnson,who is the world's greatest living human being, according to him. Even if you like the manager, the man-crush thing is over the top.
- NatsJack in Florida - May 5, 2012 at 1:18 PM
Great post Joe. As an "Ascerbic Sycophant", I may engage in some bratiness from time to time, but it usually is in defense of the Nats or, better yet, members of our NI family.
- NatitudeLady - May 5, 2012 at 1:24 PM
I was one who had sworn off Philly games after a fight broke out in my section when Zim hit a walk-off after their Jayson Werth had homered in the top of the ninth. But I did attend the game where Desi sat 'em down, and it was sweet, real sweet. Even sweeter now to be in first place, invited to be on national TV (and that was before Harper came up)–and to have our park back.
- NatitudeLady - May 5, 2012 at 1:25 PM
Oh, and to be in first place when the sun rises on May 6, 2012.

Agreed re. in-game comments, Joe S.My POD from the Phillies gamer linked to above. Perhaps one can get a two-for-one exam at Philly medical clinics? There would be a few anatomical challenges in this case, though. Things that make you go….hmmm…Posted 8:13 AM, 05/05/2012Get these umpires to an obstetrician fast for eye exams.— Disco Dave

I am sure this question has been asked before but what is the record number of 1-run games through a team's first 26 games and % of wins and walk-offs from it?

I vowed never to attend another Phillies game after the opening day debacle. I am going today with 7 other Nats-loving friends and family (ok, my daughter's boyfriend is from Philly but has agreed to be a Nats fan today).I can't wait to hear a roar from a crowd of Nats fans. Hope it drowns out every Philly chant. There will probably be more Philly fans today just because it's Saturday but I hope there are no altercations. Let's stay classy, Natitude Park!

- NatitudeLady - May 5, 2012 at 3:19 PM
NCNatsie–I saw that too about Lombo being the emergency catcher. Probably if Harper crouched back there and got injured there Davey/Rizzo would be sued for malpractice. Lombo is supposed to be the "utility" guy, so I'd guess he takes a few catching reps for practice. (Jayson has also caught, if I recall.)
- baseballswami - May 5, 2012 at 3:24 PM
Today the entire Philadelphia universe is whining about how the umpires stole the game from them. Hello? Were you not looking when we lost a run – Ruiz took his foot off the plate? It was an unusual situation that both teams had to play in. Get over yourself. As for today – Go Nats!!! Lom-bar-do-zzi!!!!!! Love the understated contributions. Love Harper and all the other Nats, too, but this guy pleases me as a fan.

Louisville beats Michigan for NCAA title
|Louisville basketball players react after defeating Michigan during the second half of the NCAA Final Four tournament college basketball championship game Monday, April 8, 2013, in Atlanta. Louisville won 82-76. (AP Photo/David J. Phillip)
ATLANTA — Rick Pitino capped the greatest week of his life with the prize he wanted most of all.
Luke Hancock produced another huge game off the bench, scoring 22 points, and Pitino became the first coach to win national titles at two schools when relentless Louisville rallied from another 12-point deficit to beat Michigan 82-76 in the NCAA championship game Monday night.
This title came on the same day Pitino was announced as a member of the latest Hall of Fame class, a couple of days after his horse won a big race on the way to the Kentucky Derby, and a few more days after his son got the head coaching job at Minnesota.
This was the best feeling of all. The Cardinals (35-5) lived up to their billing as the top overall seed in the tournament, though they sure had to work for it.
Louisville trailed Wichita State by a dozen in the second half of the national semifinals, before rallying for a 72-68 victory. This time, they fell behind by 12 in the first half, though a stunning spurt at the end of the period wiped out the entire deficit.
For that, they can thank Hancock, named the most outstanding player. He came off the bench to hit four straight 3-pointers after Michigan got a boost from an even more unlikely player, freshman Spike Albrecht. He, too, made four straight from beyond the arc, blowing by his career high before the break with 17 points. Coming in, Albrecht was averaging 1.8 points a game and had not scored more than seven all season.
While Albrecht didn't do much in the second half, Hancock finished what he started for Louisville. He buried another 3 from the corner with 3:20 remaining to give the Cardinals their biggest lead, 76-66. Michigan wouldn't go away, but Hancock wrapped it up by making two free throws with 29 seconds left.
While Pitino shrugged off any attempt to make this about him, there was no doubt the Cardinals wanted to win a national title for someone else — injured guard Kevin Ware.
Watching again from his seat at the end of the Louisville bench, his injured right led propped up on a chair, Ware smiled and slapped hands with his teammates as they celebrated in the closing seconds, the victory coming just 30 miles from where he played his high school ball.
Any pain he was feeling from that gruesome injury in the regional final, when he landed awkwardly, snapped his leg and was left writhing on the floor with the bone sticking through the skin, was long gone as he hobbled gingerly onto the court with the aid of crutches, backing in a sea of confetti and streamers.

The USA is the World's Largest and Wealthiest Pharmaceutical Market, Accounting for Around 48% of the World Total with per Capita Expenditure on Drugs at US$885 in 2005
With a population approaching 300 million, the USA is the third largest country in the world, behind China and India. The largest state is California, with a population of 36 million.
The USA is the world's largest and wealthiest pharmaceutical market, accounting for around 48% of the world total. Per capita expenditure on drugs is US$885 in 2005, nearly double the level found in the rest of the world.
The USA does not regulate drug prices, and this is causing increased difficulties for those on moderate incomes who do not qualify for state benefits. In an attempt to deal with this problem, from January 2006 Medicare will incorporate a prescription drug benefit for the over 65s. The enrolment process is reportedly causing major confusion, with people often having dozens of plans to choose between.
The issue of high US drug prices has become a major political issue. There have been no serious attempts to regulate prices since the mid 1990s. Instead, attention has focused on parallel importing cheaper drugs from abroad, notably Canada. Many people do this via the Internet. Such importing is technically illegal, although difficult to stop.
The USA is home to most of the world's major manufacturers, such as Pfizer, Merck & Co and Bristol-Myers Squibb. The largest is Pfizer, with worldwide pharmaceutical revenues in 2004 of US$46.1 billion. There is also a thriving, if very competitive, generic industry, which has grown up since the 1984 Hatch Waxman reforms.
Pharmaceuticals are stringently regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The question of drug safety has come under intense scrutiny following the September 2004 withdrawal of Vioxx (rofecoxib) from the market. This has led to calls for reforms to the whole FDA approval process.
This pharmaceutical market outlook report is ideal for executives wanting to understand the key drivers in the pharmaceutical market and stay up to date with market developments over the coming year. The report provides a comprehensive analysis of the market, five-year market forecasts, national data projections, market outlook and key developments such as regulation, health facilities and government policy. When you buy a pharmaceutical market outlook report, you will also receive 3 quarterly updated reports throughout the year.

2013 Reflection
View STEVIEBEE569's Sparkpage

Tuesday, January 01, 2013
This morning I started to reflect on what I would like to accomplish this year! Tomorrow, I start my new job and I want to do it a great job there. Also, I'm looking forward to the additional movement. I hated being unemployed because I stayed home due to finances. I worked out, but for only 60-90 minutes long. The rest of the day was a challenge to get additional activity into my day!
Then, I was thinking about my relationship with God. Despite what man may do, I should not let that have any influence on how I respond to Him. Man may fail me, but God will never fail me! I just need to keep this in mind. I will be going to a new church this Sunday and I will let God guide on the decision on where I should attend. Also, I have 2 devotionals that I will be reading throughout 2013 in order to enhance my relationship with my Father in Heaven!
Of course, I'm reflecting on what I want to accomplish this year as pertaining to my weight loss! I'm excited about the challenge I will be starting with one of my Sparkteams. My first goal is to lose 30 pounds by July 2013, which will put me at 150 pounds. Then, if I can lose 20 more by the end of this year, I will be estactic! I have my January mini-challenge in place. Detox/cleanse & food tracking has started! Workout agenda to start tomorrow morning! Additionally, I will be heading to bed at 10:00 pm tonight in order to start my 7-8 hours of Sleep Challenge!
I'm very optimistic about this year! Looking forward to my progress! My additional motivation is to PUSH this year: Persist Until Something Happens as well as Pray Until Something Happens!
