Report: Overtime shorting program
Audit says state employees get benefits that cost insurance plans
February 12, 2013
CHARLESTON — An audit report says West Virginia state employees annually receive millions of dollars in overtime and other compensation beyond their basic pay, and it could be costing their health......
The other thing to consider here, a college football coach is typically paid big bucks for one reason, wins. Wins bring in money, through licensed products, televised games, ticket sales, alumni donations, booster programs, and so on. How much money did that football program take in, and how much did the program cost overall? if the program is in the red, then he cost the taxpayers money, if not, then he may still be wasting money, but at least it isn't tax dollars. Simply saying he earned six figures in overtime (which IS totally ridiculous), doesn't mean that it cost the taxpayers a single dime.

Overtime pay for salaried employees? In the range of tens and hundreds of thousands of dollars? What the heck? Wow, state workers sure do have it tougher than the private sector folks.

OK this football coaches OT may all be legal, which I doubt, but if it is the taxpayers of WV can't afford the position. Did he even have a winning season? How much did he make total? Really someone's priorities are all wrong.

Did you bother to read the article and see who was collecting the overtime pay and in what amounts?
Only one example: A college football coach receiving SIX-FIGURES in overtime pay!
Regardless of partisan politics, I say cut his pay and/or his position as far as I'm concerned!

First cut the budget and reduce the number of employees - never mind that the workload doesn't change. Then grouse about the amount of overtime the remaining employees are working and call it a back-door raise.
What a load of bull feces. Given the choice, I would wager that most of those employees would rather work and eight hour day and go home than put in hours of overtime every week.
Republicans want to have their cake and eat it too. If less OT is what you want, hire more workers or cut services. That's how it works in the grown-up world. You can't have it both ways.

Bullhead: "Why are taxpayers footing the bill in medical premiums to pay a football coach that much in overtime?"
I agree. I'd like to know what category this coach falls into. Again, the institution should seek guidance from DOL in this situation since it's not clearly defined. However, the opinion below has been offered by Alexander J. Passantino, past acting administrator of the USDOL Wage and Hour Division.
"Coaches qualify for the exemption if their primary duty is teaching and imparting knowledge to students in an educational establishment. "Those faculty members who spend a considerable amount of their time in extracurricular activities such as coaching athletic teams are engaged in teaching. Such activities are a recognized part of the schools' responsibility in contributing to the educational development of the student." 29 C.F.R. § 541.303(b)."

Bullhead: "Academia is WAY overpaid and they already charge plenty for their "needed" service!"
Most teachers are defined as "professional employees" under the FLSA, and therefore, are "exempt" from the provisions of the Act. For that reason, the minimum wage and overtime provisions of the FLSA do not apply to most teachers. On the other hand, most staff workers who do not have administrative or decision making responsibilities - employees such as school secretaries, bus drivers, lunch room workers, and maintenance personnel - are "employees" under the FLSA and are not exempt from the Act. For that reason, the school should compensate these individuals in accordance with the minimum wage and overtime provisions of the FLSA.

Proud: "One way to save the "overtime" cost is not to allow the workers that sit in the trucks 10 - 12 hours before a storm hits"
I agree in part; however time employees spend waiting rather than performing their principal activities may constitute hours worked depending on the circumstances. The basic test is whether the employee is "engaged to wait" or "waiting to be engaged."
"Engaged to wait" time is compensable time because it is controlled by the employer. This is where more oversight and control is necessary.
"Waiting to be engaged" time is not compensable if the employee is duty-free and can use the time for his own purpose.

"Several lawmakers expressed surprise that salaried employees have been paid overtime." Seriously! Again, officials holding these offices haven't a clue; FLSA isn't new. It's relatively simple; contact the USDOL for guidance and classify these positions either exempt or non-exempt. Because the exemptions are narrowly defined, employers have a duty to check the exact terms and conditions for each by contacting their local Wage and Hour Division office or suffer stiff penalties and fines. In order for an exemption to apply, an employee's specific job duties and salary must meet all the requirements of the Department's regulations. Job titles alone do not determine exempt status. Seems like a no brainer to me.

Beep: "Someone should be in jail."
I understand your frustration; however there must have been a crime committed, but you know this already. Although in this case you hit the nail on the head regarding oversight. Truth be told, most of those mentioned in this article are covered under FLSA and the state or those institutions mentioned are required to pay that overtime, with limitations. I agree that the question about justification still remains and should be answered. Just think; the amount they've paid in overtime equates to many full time jobs that could be filled by those who are skilled and out of work looking for jobs.

Piper: I would actually agree with you on the matter... IF said managers were able to hire on their own authority providing they can stay within their yearly approved budget. However, many government agencies manage their recruitment from a centralized group to ensure the complex and arcane rules for government hiring are followed (and even then, rules are often bent or broken). Give a good manager an adequate budget with which to perform the duties of their group, and they will ensure the job gets done; but that means you must have A. a good manager, B. an adequate budget for the agency, and C. an adequate portion of those funds must be budgeted for each group within said agency. With most agencies playing catch-up, rarely knowing what their budget is before the fiscal year begins, and funding being cut despite new or expanded services being demanded by both elected leaders and the general citizenry; it is unrealistic to expect positive change in how agencies are managed.

One way to save the "overtime" cost is not to allow the workers that sit in the trucks 10 - 12 hours before a strom hits - I would rather they stay at home and sleep in thier own beds and come out 2 hours before the strom hits. Sitting there 10-12 hours before hand is just a waste of my and your tax dollars!

The crux of this article is that health plan premiums are tied to a state employee's base pay and not to the employee's tannual earnings.The solution suggested is to tie the premiums to the total earninmgs. WRONG! The solution is to demand that managers and administrators reduce reliance on overtime by effectively managing their realms.

Id like to thank all who have written, called, visited, emailed and texted since my mothers death. Youve soothed me and made me remember the good times. Some of you posed interesting questions. So, here are the answers and a few memories you might enjoy.
My mother and father met on a blind dinner date. She was divorced with two young children. He was a bachelor. She walked in at 96 pounds, wearing red lipstick and a black cocktail dress. Dad looked up and said, Oh. My. God. They were married six months later.
She kept her house spotless. SPOTLESS. Lets just say I didnt get that gene.
She had so many talentsshe sewed, painted, crocheted, did needlepoint and gardened passionately for 60 years. Every bed was covered by her afghans, and her curtainsIm talking lined, pinch-pleated satin drapes hung at every window. In comparison, I once refinished a chair. It took me two weeks.
She was the funniest human being. When I was 23, she made me laugh so hard I wet my pants in the passenger seat of her 1967 Mustang.
Her middle name was Theodosia, like Aaron Burrs daughter.
A few years ago I walked into her room at the nursing home to find her all excited. Great news! she announced. We are Joosh! (She also pronounced Irish as Arsh, and Brunswick as Bumsick.) I tried to explain why we werent, but she didnt quite understand the matriarchal line. But I just found out my Uncle Willie was Joosh! she insisted. I think Uncle Willie converted, I said. It doesnt make us Joo Jewish. Sorry, Mom.
She taught me to watch my weight. If you gain more than five pounds, hit the brakes, she said. If not, youll get huge and have diabeetus, and theyll cut your foot off.
When she was 58 years old she jumped up and led a conga line at a luau.
She loved watermelon, lima beans and fried fish. (And Little Debbie cakes, although she wouldnt like me telling you that.)
She was quite strict: Children could not interrupt an adult conversation, shout indoors, or ignore any directive from her. Dad called her She Who Must Be Obeyed.
She was my size, but with more delicate features.
My oldest brother, Bubba, was her angel. He navigated Medicare, handled her finances, took her to appointments, met with health care providers and caseworkers and most of all, remained patient as she found fault with every doctor, hospital, at-home caregiver and nursing home. Hes earned his heavenly crown.
She was very, very kind to anyone less fortunate.
Even though she voted for JFK, she couldnt stand Jackie Kennedy. She thought she put on airs.
Her favorite movies were Singing in the Rain and The Color Purple. Her favorite song was Where the Boys Are, by Connie Francis. I love it too, but I cant listen to it now.
She worked as a beautician, substitute teacher and nurses aide. She enjoyed nursing because it allowed her to help people in a practical wayand she loved hanging out at hospitals. In another time and place, I think she would have studied medicine.
She loved my holistic, tree-hugging sister Moonbeam, but didnt understand her. About 10 years ago, she realized that was OK: You can love someone who confounds you. Life goes on.
She had two sisters and two brothers. Eleanor died 15 years ago, and Ill bet theyre having big fun right now.
She was, as my brother T-Bob wrote, a wonderful mother. Not perfect, but perfect for us.

An unknown passer-by rescued a resident from a house fire at 707 South Division St. early this morning, fire officials said.
When firefighters arrived shortly after receiving a 911 call at 7:03 a.m., they found the occupant outside the building.
A second individual apparently was able to get out of the house without assistance, after hearing a smoke alarm.
The blaze started on the first floor of the 2-story, wood-framed dwelling and extended to the upper floor.
The rescued individual suffered burns and was taken to Erie County Medical Center, authorities said. The injuries did not appear to be life threatening.
Damage caused by the fire was set at $60,000 and an investigation to determine how it start was continuing.

Yakima Q Tower
Now any car in the caravan can sport a Yakima roof rack. The Q Tower features 4-way movement for a solid fit no matter how extreme the curvature of your roof.
Rack it up
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
The Q Towers fit securely on the my truck and get the job done hauling my junk. I don't like the fact that the pads sit right on my paint and are probably scratching and dulling the paint but there is no other alternative other than drilling holes in the roof to mount a rack.
Yakima Q Towers
Just Swell
They are very simple and easy to use. The newer models of q towers(not compared to y towers) are much easier than the older ones. I had to get just the pair because my older ones broke when i was reinstalling them to my car. But these are great. Good price from backcountry.com. actually better than yakima themselves.
Yakima Rocks
I bought a Q Tower system for my wife's Sienna van a while back and it went on beautifully. It is also super easy to take on and off. For my Civic the fit was a bit trickier but once I found the right position it sticks solid. This site is also the best price for Yakima gear. I did a lot of price comparison.
Great for Pick up trucks
I own a pick up truck, and only needed 1 pair. Backcountry store has the best deal and price! Next time I won't waste my time looking any ware else.
Amazing versatility
This is the only racking system that with an oversized bar can go from a Chevy Citation to a Chevy Suburban to a VW Passat in less than 5 minutes and with only an allen-wrench set. Simply amazing, and much more stable than you would ever think possible!
Will this fit my 1993 ford ranger supercab...
Will this fit my 1993 ford ranger supercab 2wd? Is this only one crossbar or is it 2 like Yakima sells on their website?
This isn't any cross-bar. This is a set of two towers. You get one pair - enough to mount a single cross-bar on your truck.
mercury mystique no rack. Does this fit...
mercury mystique no rack. Does this fit any car or just ones with no gutter and a round profile?
It will fit most cars. Yakima has specific Q-clips for different vehicles. I'd help more, but you didn't mention the year of your Mercury and that's important. If you go to http://www.yakima.com/, there's a "fit my car" option that will allow you to enter your car information and see what products will work for you.
will this work on VW passatt 2012
will this work on VW passatt 2012
Yes, however you need a set of 4 to have 2 crossbars on your car. You will also need the clips. 1 set of Q35 and 1 set of Q128 and a pair of 58in bars. Locks are not included, but recommended and each tower one lock core.
Will this system work on a Hyndai sonata...
Will this system work on a Hyndai sonata 2006
It will work, but it's not all that you need to build a system.
You'll need two pairs of Q Towers, one pair of Q5 Q clips and one pair of Q99 Q clips (http://www.backcountry.com/yakima-q-clips-1-pair-yak0074.html), and a pair of 58" crossbars (http://www.backcountry.com/yakima-58-inch-round-bar-1-pair.html).
Then, you have to buy the mounts for whatever you'd like to stick up there - bikes, skis, boards, etc.
Will this mount to a pop up camper? I...
Will this mount to a pop up camper? I have a 2001 Jayco Quest. I would like to mount this to the roof and to hold bikes. What do I need to purchase?
This is not the correct tower for a pop-up camper. You will need to use Yakima Control Towers and install either Yakima tracks or Yakima fixed mounting points (landing pads). The Yakima tracks use Yakima Landing Pad 1. Your choice of fixed mounting point really depends on what works with your configuration.
Another option is to install Yakima Widebody brackets on the side to simulate raingutters. Then, instead of Q Towers or Control Towers, you would use the 1A Raingutter towers. There are tall versions available (spacers, etc.) if you have a unique situation requiring you to mount the brackets lower than preferred.
Either way, your pop-up camper must offer a stable and secure bolting surface, lest your rack tear/shear completely off during a sudden deceleration or turn.
Write your question here...Will the Q...
Write your question here...Will the Q Towers fit my '08 Jeep Patriot?
You will need Q83-A Q clips for the front and Q83-A Q clips for the rear, 58" CrossBars and a 50" fairing (optional). I did this based on the assumption you will be fitting them over factory racks.
Write your question here...i just bought...
Write your question here...i just bought a 2010 mazda 3 5 do or.with no rack. what do i need to put my 2- 10 ft kayaks
up there?
Currently Yakima doesn't have a Fit Clip that will work on your car. You do have a few options though. One, custom rack system. This needs to be done by a custom rack shop (i.e. Rack Attack) which will allow you to use a full Yakima rack and all the accessories. It's quick and painless and usually ups the resale value of your car (warning: do not do this on your own! It needs to be done by a certified custom rack installer). The other option is Yakima's new Rack & Roll Trailer (you will need a hitch installed). This trailer is awesome and allows you to put anything you would on your roof on the trailer. It's essentially a roof rack made into a trailer. The benefits are more aerodynamic, easier to get on and off than on the roof, and you can fit more on the trailer. You should check it out on Yakima.com. If you don't want a custom rack or a trailer, you can check back regularly on yakima.com and hit the link 'Fit My Car' for any updates.
you can go with the factory rack that screws into the rain gutters. check ebay or mazda. its 425 from the dealer and about 100 less on ebay. cheers

Mike Hominuck's lacrosse career has been a story of trying to take advantage of opportunities.
It goes back to his first chance to play in the National Lacrosse League. Then he got a chance to be a regular. From there he received a second opportunity at the sport, and a second chance at playing for the Buffalo Bandits.
Tonight, Hominuck and the Bandits have an opportunity to put some distance between themselves and the Rochester Knighthawks in the standings when the teams meet in First Niagara Center (7:30 p.m., nll.com, Radio 1520 AM).
Buffalo comes into the game with a 3-2 record, while Rochester improved to 2-3 by beating Philadelphia, 20-10, on Friday. It was the Knighthawks' best game of the season by far. They come into the game with two straight wins. The Bandits would like to keep Rochester looking up at them this season, so a win tonight would be a big step toward that goal.
"These divisional games are so important, you have to find a way to win," Hominuck said. "There's not much difference between us. It's doing well on special teams, playing smart, and staying disciplined. If we concentrate on them, our chances of winning are great."
The 31-year-old knows all about the rivalries in the East Division of the NLL. He grew up, and still lives, in Welland, Ont. Hominuck played lacrosse growing up, and jumped at the chance to see the pros across the bridge.
"I think my first game that I watched was to see the Buffalo Bandits – Richie and Darris Kilgour, Chugger (Steve Dietrich)," he said. "It was pretty amazing to see indoor lacrosse played in such a big venue."
Hominuck was drafted in the third round by Philadelphia in 2001, but he was attending Brock University in pursuit of a career in teaching. Eventually his rights were traded to Buffalo. After some time on the practice squad, Hominuck played parts of two seasons, 2004 and 2005, with the Bandits. He remembers it as a good education, since he "weighed 150 pounds soaking wet, going up against grown men."
Hominuck was picked up in the expansion draft by Portland before the 2006 season. There he had a chance to play regularly, and capitalized. In 2006, Hominuck finished with a career-high 28 goals to go with 25 assists.
"I think it was a blessing in disguise," he said. "That was a team that give me a chance to flourish and find my way. It was a great experience to play in Portland."
That chance lasted fewer than two seasons, as he was sent to Minnesota in 2007. Then it was off to Edmonton in 2008, and to Toronto in 2010. The 2011 season is a blank one on Hominuck's NLL resume, due to an unexpected vacation.
"It's an interesting story," he said. "After playing with Toronto, I was pretty banged up. I needed a little time away from the game. I took the summer off, and Toronto placed me on waivers, which was a real blow and a shocker. My mentality was, maybe it's time to hang them up, maybe it's time to explore other avenues and focus on teaching. No teams contacted me, and I was lost in the shuffle."
Then in the summer of 2011, Hominuck was invited to join a summer team in Brampton, Ont., and that squad won the Mann Cup as the Canadian champion. It earned him an invitation to play for the Philadelphia Wings, who signed him to a two-year contract.
Hominuck made it through one year, then again was sent packing ... but at least this time it was close to home. He arrived in Buffalo as part of the deal that sent Kevin Buchanan to Philadelphia. Buffalo was much closer to Welland, and not far from Niagara Falls, Ont., where he works as an eighth-grade teacher ("I teach just about everything but French," he said).
Still, Hominuck was part of a big crowd of new faces on the Bandits' roster, and was scratched for two games while trying to show he deserved playing time. The veteran finally played in his first game of the season Jan. 19 in Rochester, and scored three goals. He's added four goals in two games since then.
"He was one-dimensional when he first came into the league," Bandits coach Darris Kilgour said. "We talked to him in training camp about defense. He's done a great job of evolving his game to be less one-dimensional. He's been a good two-way player. That's made it tough to get him out of the lineup. He's done a great job for us."
Hominuck added, "As long as I give 100 percent on defense, I'm doing my job. It's a team defense, and game-day preparation is more difficult because I have to think about defense. But once you get out there, you play like you practice. It's becoming a bit easier."
While Hominuck is happy to make a contribution, he's still thinking about the chances that got away and the opportunities that will come up in the remainder of the season.
"You can contribute more than just scoring, but at the end of the day if your team doesn't score as many goals as the other team, then the offense isn't doing its job," he said. "If I don't score, I feel like I haven't contributed. Now I'm focusing on getting other people open.
"But when I do get my chance, I've got to bury the ball. In the last couple of games, I've had a lot of looks. In the last game, there were opportunities that I missed that I wish I had back."
John Tavares again will be out of the Bandits' lineup tonight. He has a calf injury.

No Law Requires Acceptance of US Currency
|Email Print
Take any bill out of your wallet, notice the little "Federal Reserve Note" written in the ribbon at the top of the bill? You may have heard that it's considered legal tender and that you are required to accept it as payment.
As it turns out, while the Coinage Act of 1965 states that "United States coins and currency (including Federal reserve notes and circulating notes of Federal reserve banks and national banks) are legal tender for all debts, public charges, taxes, and dues," there is no such law that requires anyone to accept them. Section 31 U.S.C. 5103 of the act only states that the coins and currency are considered legal tender, but a business has the option must accept it as payment.
So the next time you want to "get back" at a business by paying in pennies, they are legally allowed to tell you to pound sand.

Pentax K-30 ReviewMonday September 17 2012 Sensor Review
In the Pentax K-30 we see the excellent image quality of its Sony CMOS sensor, particularly with respect to high sensitivity and a very fine color depth that matches that of many full-frame reflex cameras. As for dynamic range, however, we see a slight retreat when compared to the Pentax K-5, which has the advantage of an 80 ISO setting (and thus more generous exposure latitude). At higher sensitivities, the K-30 sensor performance differs from its competitors' because of significant smoothing that limits noise but affects image sharpness.
Further readings for the Pentax K-30 Review
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.

Pentax K-30: Indicative price 1199 (USD)?
I had a look around but I cannot find the K-30 ever being introduced for anything near $1199. It now shows up on your site as more expensive than de K-5 II ($999).
On dpreview the published press release says: "The new PENTAX K-30 will be available at retail outlets nationwide and online in July 2012 with a suggested retail price of $849.95 for body only, and $899.95 for the kit including the DA L 18-55mm zoom lens." On Amazon.com the list price is $750 but they sell it for $630.

Love it!
Review By:Janelle on 6/26/2016
I got all of these colors in a value set and I loved them! The consistency is similar to chicken grease, however it works. The scent is fruity and the gloss itself is very moisturizing. The color translates as more of a tint and is a high shine lipgloss. I like it because again, it's very moisturizing which I need because I have extremely sensitive skin that chaps easily and it doesn't break my lips out like some glosses do. Back to the color, I appreciate the translucency of the product because its not over powering and looks good on a bare face and all skin tones.
Smells like candy
Review By:Kimberly on 10/14/2015
This gloss is seriously the best smelling gloss I have ever used. When I opened it for the first time I was pleasantly surprised by the smell and thought it wouldn't last. After many uses it is still as when I first opened it. Is by far my favorite gloss now.
Pucker Up
Review By:Terri on 7/23/2015
You will love these....and I own every lip product Juice Beauty offers. Again, these are your lips ladies. Organic, natural, HEALTHY, and the colors are wonderful.
Awesome product
Review By:Tammy on 6/28/2015
This is my go to lip gloss. I absolutely love it! It smells great, it looks great! Pink is my favorite but all the colors are pretty.
Sheer Luscious Lips
Review By:Sophia on 6/16/2015
BOY, am I glad that JB sent as a free gift item their lip gloss. I, initially, thought no way will this champagne color look good on me. Was I ever wrong! I LOVED the champagne color, it blended into my lips and looked like a natural nude shade. I used the entire tube and went on to try a new color! This item is now a staple, it conditions and feels good on my lips with just the right amount of color and shimmer.
Pink lip gloss
Review By:Susie on 6/13/2015
Have this in the pink lip gloss. It's kinda sticky but looks great over the pink
lip stick.
Pretty and smooth
Review By:Sarah on 6/12/2015
Love it because pretty, hydrating and NOT sticky
Love it!
Review By:Courtney on 6/12/2015
I have the guava and love it. The color is great, and the formula is not drying like other organic brands. It is nice to be able to wear some color on my lips with confidence that I am not adding toxins to my body.
Tastes like candy!
Review By:RandomRedhead111 on 6/11/2015
I bought this for my sister but unfortunately she didn't like it, so she gave it back to me. I got Champagne and Fig and I can honestly say that they are the best lip glosses I have ever used. I put them over my lipstick and they make the colors pop. The only con is that it tastes so sweet that I almost lick it off. Lol, :)
Lush lips, no stick or goop
Review By:MGAL on 6/11/2015
I love that Juice Beauty Reflecting gloss has natural ingredients. It goes on smooth and keeps lips so moist, even in the dry winter time. Yet it's not goopy or sticky. Terrific formula! The colors are natural looking with a hint of color, and a light pearly touch. Elegant!
Maybe it's just me
Review By:Emily on 3/13/2015
Perhaps it was just a personal reaction but I ordered these in every color as I was upset by all the "goop" and sludge in regular glosses. I don't know what it is in them but they make my lips blow up like a balloon. This may be a good look for some movie stars but a starlet I "ain't" and it neither looks nor feels attractive. I kept these too long before trying to be able to return them so, word to the wise, try as soon as received - since these are touted as such a natural product I just cannot recommend them. Response from Juice Beauty: Emily: we are so sorry you had a less-than-ideal experience with one of our products. We would love to hear more about it. Please email us at firstname.lastname@example.com or give us a call at 1-877-473-0236 8am-6pm PDT M-F.
The only lip gloss I am not allergic to!
Review By:Christine on 1/5/2015
I absolutely love all four of these lip glosses. I am highly allergic to most dyes, flavoring and lots of chemicals. It is extremely hard to find products (especially lip gloss) that I can use. Not only can I use these, but all four colors are gorgeous on and last too. I am so happy with these!
Mixed review
Review By:Suzicruzi on 12/12/2014
I love juice beauty and am a long time user, so I wanted to try this product. I should have known by the description that this gloss would be very WET, and "goopy". There is nothing, and I mean nothing I can do to prep my lips, to keep this gloss from bleeding. No way, no how! I'm a "lip perfectionist", and this is just not working for me! I've tried everything in my arsenal to wear this without it bleeding, and I have failed. However, I do "like" the look, love the smell/taste ( admit it ladies, we can't help but taste our lip products while they are on- good or bad.). This is a beautiful, soothing product in that respect, and I have no doubt a nourishing product on top of it. Might be, this is intended for the younger crowd (I'm 55), who like the "wet" look, and it probably was intended for them, and not us older gals. Too bad because I really wanted to fall in love with another JB product. I will use it up, but not for business or dress.
Love this gloss
Review By:Heather on 9/18/2014
I got this gloss in the Fig color through a makeup subscription box and it has quickly replaced all my other glosses. I love the color, the texture and the fact that it is not full of harmful, or questionable, chemicals. I will never use another gloss!
Review By:Catherine on 9/15/2014
This gloss is great. I got it as a gift in the shade Pink and it glides on so well and has a wonderful smell and flavor (taste?) Gives my lips a nice shimmer and it's easy to slap on.
Review By:Kattiuska on 9/8/2014
What can I say, except this color is absolutely stunning!! I love that its organic and that my little girl can wear it when she sneaks into my make-up draw. The smell is wonderful! I have all 4 glosses, but this one is my favorite!!
I'm happy to eat this!
Review By:Helen Whaley on 9/8/2014
It's a wonderful thing that this pretty gloss, fave shade Pink, is natural and organic. After all, we're applying it to our lips and licking it all the time. Safe AND gorgeous!
Smells great!
Review By:Tamara on 9/6/2014
I've bought all the colors of this lip gloss and it is simply my favorite lip gloss in my search for nontoxic products. Most natural lip gloss doesn't have a great smell, but this smell awesome! The colors are wonderful and it feels great on my lips. I will buy this one over and over again!
BEST thing ever!
Review By:Thatsyana on 8/12/2014
I just received this lipgloss in pink and its amazing! I love that its not sticky and it smells really good. It feels really good on my lips and stays on for quite a while! Definitely worth the money if your going to buy this!
I love this lip gloss but...
Review By:Erin on 4/25/2014
Let me start by saying I really love this lip gloss. It's just the right amount of color, stays on and I trust Juice Beauty's formulas to be without harmful chemicals. However, I have bought this product multiple times and without fail every single one has an issue with the cap separating from the application stick and each time it results in a sticky mess. It's just annoying to feel like I have to wash my hands every time I use it so I don't think I'll be buying it again unless they opt for a better tube.
Only lip gloss i'll ever use, worth ordering!
Review By:Kate.A on 3/27/2014
I'm prone to getting pimples on the border of my lips from lip glosses of all sorts (Mac, Revlon, etc.) No matter what gloss it just clogs my pores, and they always leave a scar for a bit as well! So I just never bother with them usually, unless its for 1 night, which sucks because I love glosses during summer time. But tried the color ''Pink'' tester that lasted about a good month, maybe a tad longer, and used nearly everyday. And I LOVED IT, great color, nothing too flashy, not goopy or sticky, doesn't taste gross, smells good, and best of all didn't clog my pores around my lips! So this is the only gloss I'll use, I highly recommend these glosses, I've repurchased Fig and Pink a couple times now, yet to buy Guava and Champagne.
Good Investment...
Review By:epb271 on 2/27/2014
When I first signed up for "Ipsy" the "pink" lip-gloss was one of the items I received thru the mail. I thought the packaging was simple and chic. It has a very fruity fragrance, you can tell it doesn't have those artificial extracts in it, it's the real stuff. It's not greasy nor sticky, and all you need to do is apply is a small amount, (my lips get really dry in the winter, and it's been my best friend) I've almost had it for a year and a half, because all you need is a small amount. I have really sensitive skin, and my lips did not swell-up, itch, dry-up or bleed. I think it's a good buy and good investment. =)
The best treat ever!
Review By:Tye on 1/31/2014
This is my favorite lip gloss and I own all the colors. It's not sticky and it has the best orange creamsicle smell and flavor. It does not last long but I don't care it's taste so good it's like a treat!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this lipgloss!
Review By:Jennifer on 1/30/2014
Let me say, I LOVE this lip gloss. It has just the right amount of color and sparkle and feels great on your lips...not sticky. And it smells wonderful!
Review By:Svetlana on 1/30/2014
I got reflecting gloss in the Pink color, and it is such a versatile shade! It's very soft and feminine by itself but also looks amazing when you layer it on top of a darker color. What I like most of all is that it is SO good for your lips! My lips actually feel moisturized after I put this on, which never happens with other lip glosses I own!
Best Lip Gloss Ever!
Review By:Jennifer on 1/30/2014
My girlfriend turned me onto Juice Beauty products and figured I would give this gloss a try. I purchased Champagne. It is very light in color which I love and am looking forward to trying the other colors. It is now my go to gloss and have switched from Buxom Lips...will not be going back after having tried this gloss. The yummy smell, light feel/look and the fact that is a "healthy" gloss make it hit! Just love this gloss!
Perfect Lip Gloss
Review By:Karen on 1/29/2014
I really like this lip gloss. I like that it is natural and good for my lips but is still a lovely gloss that looks and feels great. It is not sticky at all, which I really appreciate. I chose the Pink color and am very pleased with it. I highly recommend!
Perfect Lip Gloss
Review By:Karen on 1/29/2014
I recently threw away all my balms and glosses that had nasties in them and began looking for something natural and good for my lips but that still worked. This is it! I bought the Pink color and it is so versatile. It goes with anything. I liked it so much, I bought one for my daughter, and she loves it, too!
Feeling beautiful!
Review By:Kelley on 1/29/2014
This is my go to lip gloss. I love the silky texture it gives my lips....not to mention the fun colours! I'm comforted in knowing that I'm not putting any questionable ingredients right on my lips where they're easily ingested into my body.
Lovely Gloss, Don't Expect Colour
Review By:Elatsyrk on 1/27/2014
This is a great gloss, but don't expect a lot of colour out of it. I ordered the colour PINK and it barely shows, but the smell is great and the texture is light.
Review By:Laura on 1/22/2014
Love this stuff. Started with the Pink and feel in love, so got a few others. Like the Pink best, but all three are moisturizing and delicious smelling.
Mmm… Fruit.
Review By:Morgan on 1/21/2014
I usually hate lip glosses and I do not usually wear them. I think I'm willing to give this an exception. The smell/taste alone deserves five stars since that's what drew me into it in the first place. They feel wonderful on the lips and don't give that sticky, disgusting texture like all other lip glosses have on me. The feel is actually very moisturizing and made my lips feel soft after removing it. The texture is very smooth, light and creamy with nice pigmentation and some shimmer. Bonus points for being organic of course. I can definitely see me wearing these over lipstick for added moisture and making my lips feel and look silky and healthy. I got the Holiday Four pack and the colors are very, very beautiful. My favorites of the four are guava and fig since they match best with my skin tone, but all the colors are worth a try.
Review By:Marie on 1/21/2014
This gloss is shiny but won't make you look like you are a 14 year old girl. It's smooth and not tacky like other glosses. As with most Juice Beauty products it smells fantastic to boot!
Review By:Rosie on 1/20/2014
This lip gloss is so perfect. It tastes delicious-not that I try to make a habit of eating it-and stays on all day. I bought the pink color and it is a perfect match for my complexion. For sure going to buy this again.
Finally Found a WINNER
Review By:Ashley on 1/17/2014
I have been using the champagne color reflecting gloss for over a year and some of my colleagues commented that I found the perfect gloss to suit my blond hair, blue eyes, pink complexion. This gloss might not be long lasting, but it's the best organic gloss I have found to date.
Sparkle and glitter!
Review By:shelley on 1/16/2014
I love anything sparkly and glittery, and I love lip gloss. Juice Beauty's lip gloss is my new favorite.
I have it in Pink & Champagne. The pink is so pretty and bright, and the Champagne is so sparkly!
5 Stars!
The Best smelling lip gloss
Review By:Kattiuska on 1/15/2014
AHHHHH, where do I begin...except to say that truly this is the best smelling lip gloss I have ever purchased and used!! I even let my 5 year old wear some! Need I say more! Thank you again for making a great product!
Review By:Holly on 1/13/2014
Very nice color (I bought the champagne). It has a great taste and is not sticky at all. It gives a great shimmer to your lips. Looking forward to trying another color.
love, LoVe, LOVE!!!
Review By:Laura on 1/13/2014
I ordered all 4 colors of the lip gloss (when it was on special during the Holiday season) since I couldn't decide what color I wanted. I LOVE all 4 colors and I LOVE the natural + organic ingredients going onto my lips. I LOVE the shimmer & the colors (& did I mention how much I LOVE the fact that it's natural + organic ingredients going onto my lips?). Each color is a completely different tint so depending on my mood I can spice it up or tone it down!
I love lip gloss in general & have been on the hunt for one that I can use without feeling like I'm create a chemical zone on my lips. THANKS Juice Beauty for providing YuMMiNeSS for my LiPS! :)
Review By:Lori on 1/12/2014
This is the perfect gloss. I love the color, it's perfect for my fair skin tone. It's glossy, shimmery, organic & perfect! I never leave home without it!!!
Great Lip Gloss!
Review By:Tamar on 1/12/2014
I got the Champagne and the Fig as a gift set during the 12 days of beauty sale last month. I'm a makeup artist and so I have a giant collection of lipsticks and glosses, but I use the Fig on myself almost daily! I love the fact that these are a gluten free lip gloss that tastes great and doesn't leave my lips sticky. The Champagne is a glittery nude and the Fig is a sheer, glittery plum. These layer very well over lipstick and have decent staying power for a gloss. My only complaint is that I would prefer a brush wand over a foam applicator.
Review By:Erica on 1/11/2014
I've never really like lip gloss before. But I find that I like this one a lot. I use just a little over their colored lip balm to add just a little more fun.
Review By:jesse on 1/11/2014
I bought this gloss in champagne. It has a nice, fruity scent and feels incredibly light, it isn't sticky or heavy, and it has some shimmer to it. I like it very much and would definitely recommend.
An organic fruit treat for your lips!
Review By:Nat on 1/11/2014
I was in search of a hydrating, wholesome lip gloss and fell in love with this one! Champagne is the perfect combination of soft sparkle, pleasant scent, and comfortable wear. I tend to apply gloss throughout the day, and I like knowing that Reflecting Gloss provides a dose of nourishing ingredients!
So good it is hard to stop buying it!!!
Review By:Anya on 1/11/2014
I LOVE These glosses. I got all the colors. In fact I love it so much I think it is important to share with your friends and family.
It doesn't get better than this!
Review By:Helen on 1/10/2014
My Juice Beauty lipgloss was my first product from here and I'm extremely impressed. The gloss is the first I've had that, not only isn't sticky and goopy, but actually improves the texture of my lips. I've always struggled with dry, flaky lips and gone through tons of balm. Not any more!
tomboys rejoice!
Review By:macxx on 1/10/2014
I'm not much of a make-up person.
I prefer chapsticks and lip balms for hydration.
I do want color but a natural look.
This is the first lip gloss i encountered to incorporate all that. I have it in champagne and it incorporates my natural lip color underneath with slight plumping. It's a guilt free lip gloss with all natural ingredients, there's not one ingredient I don't understand. It's my go to "lip balm gloss".
Finally, the perfect lip gloss!
Review By:Shannon on 1/10/2014
I typically shy away from lip gloss - they can be too sticky, too shiny, etc. But, not this one!! It has the perfect texture and softens my lips! I have tried Guava, Pink & Fig and Guava is my favorite color - it still makes me look natural, but with a little punch of color. When I go out, I layer it over my red lipstick to help tone it down to the perfect color. I love the ingredients and taste, too! These also make perfect gifts! I used to say the only piece of makeup I cannot leave the house without is my mascara, but now I have added this lip gloss to that list!
Favorite lip gloss in the world
Review By:Aurelie on 1/10/2014
His lip gloss is the best I've ever used. It not only moisturizes my lips but it glides on leaving a lovely amount of color and gloss but it isn't sticky like so many glosses I've tried. I need to buy this in ever color. I don't leave home without it.
Review By:Andrea on 1/10/2014
I got the fig lip gloss in one of my Ipsy bags and loved it! It is not sticky or grainy like other lip glosses I have tried. It has a wonderful smell and is a sheek tube. The lip gloss brought me to your site, but I am excited to try more!
Love the Sparkle and Shine!
Review By:shelley on 1/10/2014
I love lip gloss, and Juice Beauty's is my favorite!
It smells so good and nourishes my lips (It's so nice that it doesn't dry them out)
and the pink color is so pretty with everything (It's a great pink color and so sparkly),
and the champagne color is so nice and neutral when you just want a shiny look.
I highly recommend them!
So Hydrating!
Review By:Cheryl on 1/10/2014
I have this lip gloss in Champagne and Pink. The Champagne is sheer and the Pink gives a beautiful rosy color alone or over lipstick. They are so moist and delicious! Not sticky at all, like most other lip glosses. My lips stay hydrated all day! I will never use another brand of lip gloss.
Great gloss!
Review By:Mandy on 1/9/2014
I got this as a sample from Birchbox awhile ago and I was pretty excited to try it because I've heard a lot of good things about Juice Beauty. The scent of the gloss had to grow on me after a minute; it came across a little bitter, kind of like orange rinds, at first. But it was incredibly soft on my lips, the glitter wasn't overpowering, and it goes well over any kind of lipstick I'm wearing underneath. When I wear it alone it moisturizes my lips for a slightly longer period of time, and a little of it goes a long way; I'm not reapplying every 30 minutes. This was the first organic beauty product I've ever tried and I'm quite happy with it.
Organic for life!
Review By:Sarah Burns on 1/9/2014
I love this lip gloss with a passion! My favorite is the Fig. Its light and natural. Not sticky or gritty. It's smooth with a light citrus hit to it. Juice Products are so great because they are truly for any occasion. Everything is just so natural, which is great for me because I am not a make-up freak. I just like a little lips and eyes. This gloss is perfect!
Organic, good; Pink, not
Review By:Rebekah on 12/20/2013
I'm trying to switch my make up to more natural/organic items. I tried the Pink lip gloss, only, it's not pink. It's mauve, closer to purple. I have a natural PLUS look, trying to enhance natural pigments, etc. This is not a natural, enhancing pink for a fair complected person. It's going back. Also, it tastes a little funny.
Almost the perfect lip gloss
Review By:Trisha on 11/24/2013
I love this in pink! It looks great, smells great, taste great. This makes my lips feel so good. This is not a long lasting gloss - and doesn't claim to be. But the soft smooth lip feeling is long lasting!
Review By:Luciana on 9/26/2013
I have this lip gloss in Pink and have to say it's probably one of the best lip glosses I've ever used. It has a nice, fruit juice scent and feels incredibly light and slick on my lips. Colorwise, it's very sheer but it does have a fine shimmer that looks very natural.
Perfect Pink!
Review By:Jess on 9/8/2013
I love the pink Reflecting Gloss, it's the perfect natural shade! Glossy and reflective, but not too much, and it provides a slightly rosy hue. It's nice and smooth, not at all sticky! I'll be ordering Guava next!
in love!
Review By:Michelle on 9/5/2013
Getting this lip gloss was the best decision I've ever made. I got it in the color Pink and it was just amazing. It smelled and tasted good, citrusy. The texture wasn't sticky or heavy, it was light and applied sheer. It also really moisturizes my lips, even when they're chapped. Definitely recommend this to anyone and everyone.
Pretty gloss
Review By:Freckles on 6/23/2013
If this gloss were sold for the same price by a traditional cosmetics company, it would probably only get three stars, but I'm partial to giving Juice products high marks simply for their organic status. This gloss is not as shiny as I was expecting it to be, which is probably because it goes on pretty thin. I have a hard time noticing the tint on my lips, but that could just be because it's so close to my natural color; it's probably for the best, though, because I noticed some of the shimmer settling into the few creases on my lips, which makes me wonder how i would have fared with the darker colors.
DESPITE THE THIN FORMULA, it lasts for a pretty long time, and it conditions like crazy - it completely soothed my lips after an incident with another brand's shea lip butter (shea has latex which dries out your lips if you're sensitive). I would definitely buy this again, but I wish they would tweak the formula a bit to make it thicker.
Review By:Shavaun on 6/14/2013
I received this in my May Ipsy Glam bag and FELL IN LOVE! I had to order more! I love the color the feel and the smell! It goes on smooth and stays that way! Never gets sticky like some lip glosses too! You can wear it with or without lipstick. This has to be my new favorite product!
Review By:Lex on 6/12/2013
I recently got this in my Ipsy and I got the color pink! IT IS AMAZING! It is the perfect color, not at all sticky, very light and shimmery perfect for summer, and all natural? How is that even possible!?!? I never leave the house without this since it goes so well with everything! The color pink is very natural looking and the product is super moisturizing and super easy to put on! I love this even more then my favorite high end lip gloss!! I would recommend this to EVERYONE! I will definitely be repurchasing!! Thank you Ipsy and thank you Juice for such an amazing product! I promise you wont rergret buying this because I love it this much and I NEVER right reviews!!;) <3
BEST lipgloss ever
Review By:xo on 5/29/2013
most lipglosses make my lips peel, even the more moisturizing ones like chanel, clinique & buxom. this is the first lipgloss i've tried that does not make my lips peel. it has an extremely light texture, it feels like water going onto your lips. the color is very light, i used fig. it's very reflective, to be sure, but not super opaque in color. the best texture for summer. for having such a light texture, the gloss has pretty good staying power. this is my favorite lipgloss since clinique superbalm (which is very heavy, sticky & makes my lips peel--but stays on alllllll day).
Review By:Lisa on 5/17/2013
I LOVE the Fig lip gloss! This is not sticky at all! My boyfriend was so surprised that when he kissed me he didn't experience the dreaded "sticky lips" as he calls it. The color is amazing on my skin! I love the smell too. Overall an amazing lip gloss that I will purchase over and over!
Review By:Heather on 5/15/2013
Got this in my ipsy glambag, and it is hands down the most delicious lip gloss I've ever used! I LOVE it, and will be purchasing it!
Juice Beauty lip gloss
Review By:Tammy Rothwell on 5/10/2013
I recently received a champagne colored lip gloss in my first ipsy bag and thought it to be sophisticated, earthy and radiantly glossy. I enjoy the silky tone it has provided my lips! Thank you so much for a wonderfully surprising taste as well. Just makes me want to kiss someone to share this 'experience'.
So Happy
Review By:Tiffany on 3/22/2013
Not all natural products are created equally, but this is a GREAT addition to my makeup collection. I'm not a fan of heavy makeup, so this is perfect as it's a light, shimmery shade and not sticky at all. Smells great, stays on and doesn't have that weird waxy taste. Love it!
OMG...I have worn all the top designer brand li...
Review By:Vicky on 8/28/2011
This is better than the top name brand costing twice. I love the color guava because it gives just enough color I can go without any lipstick underneath and it last and looks natural with just a hint of sparkle. I found the gloss at the Hotel Vitale Spa in San Francisco and I am happy the attendant recommended it so highly. Love it!!!
LOVE LOVE LOVE this stuff
Review By:Southern Belle! on 8/19/2011
This is my favorite lip item ever. Smells, tastes and looks great. My boyfriend loves it too!
Review By:J on 12/3/2010
I love the JB Lip Gloss! It tastes delicious, the colors are gorgeous and it's super moisturizing! Most lip glosses end up drying my lips out because they are packed with petroleum and other icky ingredients. But the JB gloss actually works as a lip balm and has relieved my chapped lips while making them look glossy and sexy.
Light Color, great taste!
Review By:Jumpin Beans on 9/8/2010
I was able to review this...
Great hint of color and great taste too!
The sleek little tube is great to throw in your purse and you do not have to worry about the lid coming off!
Review By:treehugger011 on 8/5/2010
This lip gloss is Amazing! It tastes so yummy and stays on. I love the Champagne color because it's perfectly sheer, just a bit of pink. You can wear it by itself or over lipstick. I also love the slender tube it comes in!

Social Media in Korea
Contact: , 308-697-3486;
Thousands of Koreans are getting an up-close introduction to U.S. beef through the eyes of a group of South Korean consumer bloggers. The features are the result of three recent small-scale cooking events with a broad audience of targeted consumers. Developed with funding from the Beef Checkoff Program and the United Soybean Board, the combination of active blogger participation and sponsorship by a popular food-related website in Korea helped the events achieve extensive visibility, including the 1 million members of a shopping club.
The Beef Checkoff Program was established as part of the 1985 Farm Bill. The checkoff assesses $1 per head on the sale of live domestic and imported cattle, in addition to a comparable assessment on imported beef and beef products. States retain up to 50 cents on the dollar and forward the other 50 cents per head to the Cattlemen's Beef Promotion and Research Board, which administers the national checkoff program, subject to USDA approval.

I'm doing some artwork for an upcoming GDT with the Wings Roster featured in Mugshots like this one.
I need to come up with charges for each player on the roster, or at the very least the ones who aren't injured.
I figured you guys would have some good ones, they can be positive or negative a good mix of both would be best. Preferably funny if possible.
If anyone can come up with some good ones or one better than I already have I'll add it to the list.

Someone invent a tripod for the original Flip Video soon. PLEASE!
You can view the videos here- just click on View Videos, My Uploaded Video, and then choose from there!
Thank you so much for the videos! Being able to see the different slings/wraps and how to put them in was great. Now I have a better idea of what to try with my next one...whenever that is! :)ReplyDelete
These videos are excellent! I have a Mai Tai and a pouch sling and I'm so grateful to see how the pouch sling worked with an actual newborn being carried. I feel a whole lot better about wearing my little guy after he's born now (only 5 weeks to go!). Thank you!ReplyDelete
Great videos! My son always hated the cradle hold, and I had no idea there was another way to do it. We abandoned the sling much sooner than I wanted because I just figured that he hated it. I wish I'd known to try tummy to tummy!ReplyDelete
My 4-month-old is starting to not like the cradle position so I'm going to have to try the tummy one with our sling! Thanks for the videos!ReplyDelete
These are GREAT! I might just have to have you shoot a video next week too ;) So many people get SO confused on how to wear a newborn!ReplyDelete
Good job Noah!
Great vid's. I'm sure I'll be referring back to them when I have Dash.
Ivy is such a good baby!
Look forward to trying these out in April! : ) None of my babies liked the ring sling I had before, but I never tried the hold you demonstrate. Elizabeth loved her pouch, once we figured it out, though. Thanks for the tips!ReplyDelete
seriously folks, steph has the best advice on how to wear a newborn. listen to this babywearing genius! :)ReplyDelete
thanks for sharing the videos. i can't wait to try carrying my new baby in a ring sling.ReplyDelete
Fun videos. I havent heard of this mom blog thing. looks neat.ReplyDelete
I will definitely be using a ring sling with our next baby! Thanks so much for the videos! Although, I am feeling quite dizzy right now! Could you set the camera on a dresser or something?ReplyDelete
I enjoyed watching!ReplyDelete
I had a ring sling with my babies, but they a) weren't fashionable, and b) weren't easy to use. I so wish I were having my babies now when I would have more choices!
Your videos were excellent tutorials for new moms wanting to try baby-wearing.
Oh, wow! Thanks so much! I have ring slings (1 my MIL made for me and 2 that were gifts). The cradle hold has worked ok, but I think my little guy will like the tummy to tummy position way better.ReplyDelete

Pirates rally to beat Nats 3-2
PITTSBURGH – Josh Harrison had a tiebreaking, two-out single in the seventh inning after Jose Tabata hit a sacrifice fly and the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Washington Nationals 3-2 Saturday night for their fourth straight win.
Gerrit Cole left after six innings trailing by a run while facing Stephen Strasburg in the first matchup in the NL of No. 1 overall draft picks in nine years.
But Strasburg (3-4) allowed three runs on seven hits with seven strikeouts in seven innings.
Cole – the top pick of the 2011 draft, two years after Strasburg went first – allowed two runs on five hits with seven strikeouts.
Neil Walker hit his 10th home run for the Pirates, who tied their season-best winning streak.
Jered Hughes (3-1), Jeanmar Gomez and Mark Melancon each worked a perfect inning of relief for Pittsburgh. Melancon picked up his ninth save when he finished the Pirates' majors-best 14th one-run victory.
Ian Desmond hit his ninth homer for Washington, which has lost six of eight.
The bullpen backed up Cole, who allowed 10 baserunners and threw 112 pitches in six innings, retiring the side in order only once. Still, Pittsburgh won for the fourth time in five May starts by Cole.
Strasburg, who struck out 14 in a memorable major league debut against the Pirates almost four years ago, did not allow a hit Saturday until Walker's homer to center with one out in the fourth.
Pittsburgh managed just three more singles off Strasburg until the seventh, when Russell Martin led off with a single and went to third on a one-out double by Marte.
Martin and Marte each had two hits. Greg Dobbs went 2 for 4 for the Nationals.
Pittsburgh goes for the sweep against Washington today at 1:35 p.m.
NOTES: The Mets' Kris Benson (the No. 1 pick of the 1996 draft) faced Cincinnati's Paul Wilson (No. 1 overall in 1994) on May 16, 2005 – the most recent occurrence of top picks facing each other in the NL. It happened in the American League two years ago (Kansas City's Luke Hochevar vs. Tampa Bay's David Price on Aug. 21, 2012). . 1B Adam LaRoche joined the Nationals in Pittsburgh after LaRoche had a pain-free game in a rehabilitation assignment for Double-A Harrisburg on Friday. LaRoche, on the disabled list since May 10 because of a right quad strain, said he will be activated for Sunday's game in Pittsburgh. . SS Desmond's homer gives the Nationals 17 this season from their middle infielders, most in the majors. . The crowd of 38,889 was the second sellout of the season at PNC Park. . The four-game series wraps up Sunday when Washington RHP Doug Fister (1-1, 3.93) faces Pirates LHP Francisco Liriano (0-4, 4.86). Despite his record, Pittsburgh has won five of Liriano's past six starts.
