Linux System Initialization
As the title indicates, I will discuss, in one form or another, how Linux system initialization works. System initialization starts where the kernel bootup ends. Among the topics I intend to explain include system initialization à la Slackware—a BSD (Berkeley Software Distribution) knock-off—as well as System V (five) initialization à la Red Hat, Caldera, Debian, et al., and also point out the differences between them. You'll soon see that the systems are truly more similar than they are different, despite appearances to the contrary. I will also cover passing switches through LILO to init during the boot process—this is used mostly for emergencies.
What I will not discuss (for brevity's sake) are the details in some of Red Hat's, Caldera's or other initialization scripts, specifically configuration information found in the /etc/sysconfig or /etc/modules directories. For those details, you're on your own. Besides, those details are more subject to change from one release to the next.
Back in the days when UNIX was young, many universities obtained "free" copies of the operating system (OS) and made improvements and enhancements. One was the University of California at Berkeley. This school made significant contributions to the OS, which were later adopted by other universities. A parallel development began in a more commercial environment and eventually evolved into what is now System V. While these two parallel systems shared a common kernel and heritage, they evolved into competing systems. Differences can be found in initialization, switches used by a number of common commands (such as ps: under BSD, ps aux is equivalent to System V's ps -ef), inter-process communications (IPC), printing and streams. While Linux has adopted System V inits for most distributions, the BSD command syntax is still predominant. As for IPC, both are available and in general use in Linux distributions. Linux also uses BSD-style printcaps and lacks support for streams.
Under initialization, the biggest difference between the two (BSD and System V) is in the use of init scripts. System V makes use of run levels and independent stand-alone initialization scripts. Scripts are run to start and stop daemons depending on the runlevel (also referred to as the system state), one script per daemon or process subsystem. System V states run from 0 to 6 by default, each runlevel corresponding to a different mode of operation; often, even these few states are not all used. BSD has only two modes (equivalent to System V's runlevels), single-user mode (sometimes referred to as maintenance mode) and multi-user mode. All daemons are started essentially by two (actually more like four to six ) scripts—a general systems script, either rc.K or rc.M for single- or multi-user mode, respectively, a local script and a couple of special scripts, rc.inet and rc.inet2. The systems script is usually provided by the distribution creator; the local script is edited by the system administrator and tailored to that particular system. The BSD-style scripts are not independent, but are called sequentially. (The BSD initialization will be most familiar to those coming from the DOS world.) The two main scripts can be compared to config.sys and autoexec.bat, which, by the way, call one or two other scripts. However, the likeness ends there. Having only these few scripts to start everything does not allow for the kind of flexibility System V brings (or so say some). It does, however, make things easier to find. In System V circles (but only in System V circles), BSD initialization is considered obsolete—but what do they know? Like a comfortable pair of shoes, it won't be discarded for a very long time, if ever.
Recall that earlier I said Slackware did a BSD knock-off, and yet it still uses the rc.S/rc.M, et al., scripts. This is because inittab, (which we'll look at later) uses the same references to runlevels, and uses those (very much System V) runlevels to decide which scripts to run. In fact, the same init binary is used by all the distributions I have looked at, so there is really less difference between Slackware and Red Hat or Debian than appears on the surface, not at all like older BSD systems that reference only modes "S" or "M".
Once the kernel boots, we have a running Linux system. It isn't very usable, since the kernel doesn't allow direct interactions with "user space". So, the system runs one program: init. This program is responsible for everything else and is regarded as the father of all processes. The kernel then retires to its rightful position as system manager handling "kernel space". First, init reads any parameters passed to it from the command line. This command line was the LILO prompt you saw before the system began to boot the kernel. If you had more than one kernel to choose from, you chose it by name and perhaps put some other boot parameters on the line with it. Any parameters the kernel didn't need, were passed to init. These command-line options override any options contained in init's configuration file. As a good inspection of what's really going on will tell you, runlevels are just a convenient way to group together "process packages" via software. They hold no special significance to the kernel.
When init starts, it reads its configuration from a file called inittab which stands for initialization table. Any defaults in inittab are discarded if they've been overridden on the command line. The inittab file tells init how to set up the system. Sample Slackware, Red Hat and Debian inittabs are included later in this article.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

International investors demand for U.S. Treasury securities is still growing despite America's enormous budget deficits, according to a new report released by U.S.Treasury Department on Monday. Foreign countries see American bonds as a safe haven in a time of economic uncertainty.
"In August, foreign investors were hungry, very hungry, for U.S. Treasury bonds and notes. As a result, net private and public purchases of U.S. Treasuries reached their third highest level on record, at $136.6 billion," Gregory Daco, U.S. senior economist at IHS Global Insight, told the AFP.
"As we have seen over the last months, in times of great uncertainty over the global recovery investors continue to view U.S. securities as a safe-haven refuge," he added.
China is the largest holder of U.S. Treasury debt with $868.4 billion. Japan is number two with $836.6 billion, and Britain ranked third with $227 billion.
All three countries have been buying more Treasury securities.

ST. PAUL - At least 410 people were killed on Minnesota roads in 2010, according to preliminary records from the state Department of Public Safety (DPS) Office of Traffic Safety. DPS projects the final 2010 count to close around the 420 mark - on par with 2009's total of 421, the lowest number of annual deaths since 1944.
Officials say the 2010 figure will increase during the next few months as additional fatal crash reports are submitted to DPS. Final crash numbers will be announced early this summer.
"We've seen a positive trend-line of fewer road deaths in recent years that points to the success of legislation and proactive traffic safety campaigns," says DPS Commissioner Michael Campion. "While it appears 2010 won't show a big reduction in deaths, we are maintaining a low death count and have cut down our annual road deaths by more than 200 since just eight years ago - that is very significant."
Campion cites these factors for the lower death trend: traffic safety legislation (such as primary seat belt law); enhanced enforcement coupled with education efforts; effective MnDOT, county and local engineering improvements; efficient emergency trauma response; as well as safer vehicles.
"These are all critical elements to the progress, but none are as important as safe driver behavior. The key to reducing deaths is for motorists to take the task of driving seriously," says Campion.
A critical statistic to determine road safety is the death rate per 100 million vehicle miles traveled (VMT). DPS estimates the 2010 VMT will be 0.73, which would be the lowest ever for Minnesota. In 2009, the state VMT fatality rate was less than one person (0.74) - the second lowest in the nation - and down from a rate of 5.52 in 1966.
Highlights from preliminary 2010 traffic data:
· Motorcyclist deaths plummet again - 41 rider deaths compared to 53 total deaths in 2009. This marks the second consecutive major decline in rider deaths (2009 deaths dropped 28 percent from 2008). In recent years, motorcyclist deaths had boomed as ridership hit record levels. DPS attributes the decline to the influx of boomer-age riders becoming more seasoned and experienced, and less likely to crash. Other factors include rider training programs, enforcement and public outreach.
· The preliminary 410 fatality count includes motorists (313), motorcyclists (41); pedestrians (39 - slightly down from the 41 in 2009); bicyclists (nine - even with 2009); ATV riders (four); farm equipment operators (two); one snowmobiler; and one battery powered conveyance vehicle operator.
· Teen deaths - a surge of teen deaths in spring contributed to 37 teen deaths (ages 16-19), up from the 35 killed in 2009.
· DWI arrests - 26,810 preliminary DWI arrests; there were 32,924 DWI arrests in 2009. The preliminary DWI arrest count will grow as alcohol-concentration data is finalized. Crash data regarding alcohol-related deaths will be reported later this year. Each year, alcohol-related crashes account for more than one-third of the state's total death count. Last year there were 141 alcohol-related deaths, the lowest death count on record since being tracked in 1984.
DPS officials also cite milestones in 2010 that will drive the trend of fewer road deaths in 2011:
· Daytime seat belt compliance hit a record-high 92 percent - Campion says the primary seat belt law helped to again boost the state's belt use rate. The belt law (in effect since June 2009) requires drivers and all passengers to be belted or in the correct child restraint, and allows law enforcement to stop drivers or passengers for belt violations.
· Strengthened DWI sanctions law, including greater use of ignition interlocks, effective July 1, 2011. This law requires first-time DWI offenders arrested at 0.16 alcohol-concentration level or higher and all repeat offenders to drive only a vehicle with an ignition interlock installed, or face longer periods without driving privileges. Interlocks are attached to a vehicle starter and require the driver to provide a breath sample to determine their alcohol-concentration level prior in starting the vehicle.
Since 2000, the state's annual traffic deaths steadily declined: in 2000 there were 625 deaths;
2001 - 568; 2002 - 657; 2003 - 655; 2004 - 567; 2005 - 559; 2006 - 494; 2007 - 510; 2008 - 455; 2009 - 421.
The state's traffic safety efforts are driven by its core traffic safety initiative, Toward Zero Deaths (TZD). A primary vision of theTZD program is to sculpt a safe driving culture in Minnesota in which motorists support a goal of zero road fatalities by practicing and promoting safe and smart driving behavior. TZD focuses on the application of four strategic areas to reduce crashes - education, enforcement, engineering and emergency trauma response.

Javier Fortuna's Return Being Discussed, Possibly on HBO
By Rick Reeno
BoxingScene.com has been advised that WBA interim-featherweight champion Javier Fortuna (21-0, 15KOs) will return in the coming months, possibly on HBO.
Promoter Sampson Lewkowicz was trying to get Fortuna on the Sergio Martinez-Martin Murray card on April 27 in Argentina, but his plan to place Fortuna on that particular event fell through.
He then tried to match Fortuna with Puerto Rico's Orlando Cruz. Inquiries were made and no interest was expressed on the part of Cruz's team.
The current plan is to have Fortuna return on an HBO televised date which is being secured by promoter Lou DiBella. The date should be finalized shortly.
Fortuna was last seen on the Manny Pacquiao-Juan Manuel Marquez undercard on December 8th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. He won a twelve round decision over previously unbeaten Patrick Hyland.

She is a terrible Doctor, horrible attitude towards patients and staff. Literally yelled at her staff in front of the patients. Very unprofessional and not recommend.
Not only is this office poorly run overall with a dismissive staff and doctor, the surgery center used by this office is terrible as well.
She is so very thorough and takes her time with her patients. She is very caring. I have glaucoma and macular degeneration. She immediately sent me to a specialist for the macular degeneration because this condition takes specialized care, but she is helping me manage my glaucoma so well. I have full confidence with her.
Waited too long. Cares more about how much and fast you can pay rather than patient care. Would never recommend. There are many other better doctors.
i have nothing but great things to say about this doctor she is very kind
horrible attitude , doesn't listen . only concern was how fast can u pay her.
I ended up having some eye problems. I decided to visit Dr.Ghauri. Literally spent 3 minutes with me. Pretty much told me I was wrong and was NO HELP! I don't have insurance. I literally paid 700 out of pocket just to see her 3 times! That's ridculous! Funny part is a OPTOMETRIST ended up seeing me and making my eye problems go away. NOT Dr.Ghauri. I have already reported her for false diagnostics! Please go to someone who actually cares about their patients!
too many visits....too many drug prescriptions
Have been pleased with my visits to Dr. Ghari great doc
Professional in every way, the only doctor visit I actually look forward to.

CLEARWATER, Fla. - To be clear, there is no competition for the fifth starter's spot. The job is Joe Blanton's, assuming, of course, a trade does not prevent him from heading north with the Phillies.
"Joe's our fifth starter," pitching coach Rich Dubee said.
So where, exactly, does that leave Kyle Kendrick?
"It's out of my hands," Kendrick said. "I just need to have a good spring, and they'll make the decision."
The decision for now is to stretch both Kendrick and Vance Worley out as starters. Either one could end up in the bullpen for the Phillies, perhaps taking the innings Chad Durbin manned the previous three seasons. Durbin remains unsigned and unlikely to return to Philadelphia because the Phillies like the righthanded pitching depth they have. Kendrick, who signed a one-year, $2.45 million deal this off-season to avoid arbitration, is included in that mix.

A Randall County grand jury has indicted an Amarillo man on a charge of murder after he allegedly ran a woman over outside an Amarillo bar in May.
The grand jury handed up the indictment against Gabriel Albert Gutierrez, 27, in connection with a May 15 incident near the Whiskey River bar in the 4000 block of West 51st Avenue.
The same grand jury also indicted Gutierrez on a charge of intoxication manslaughter, two counts of failure to stop and render aid, aggravated assault and intoxication assault.
Authorities allege Gutierrez was drunk when he struck Josephine Arias Johnson, 30, with a Dodge Durango near the bar about 1:40 a.m. She died at a hospital. Police allege that he also injured three other people when he struck them with the Durango before he fled the scene.
A witness followed the Durango, and police stopped it nearby.
Gutierrez remained in the Randall County jail Thursday on $160,000 bond.

Non metallic boxes are ideal in applications where AC and low voltage devices are to be located together. Perfect in situations were A/V or data connections need to be located with an AC outlet, or when wall switches and in-wall volume controls are to be located together. New construction model may be attached wood or metal studs. Old work model uses rotating clips for easy mounting to existing wall board cutouts.
Arlington Industries manufactures a wide variety of low voltage brackets specifically designed for the custom installation market. Click Here to see the entire offering.

I used this for routing cables behind the wall, and it works perfectly!

Love this product. It is well made, rigid and pulls nice and tight against the wall. Unlike old work low voltage products from Carlon, this item allows the wall plate to mount flush against the wall with no gaps. It is especially good for mounting CATV or satellite connections in the same wall plate as the AC outlet, or when volume controls are located immediately next to light switches. I highly recommend this item.

These are hard to find and this one turned out great for me. It's pretty solid. The only thing to point out is that it's pretty deep (almost 3 1/2" from outside of wall to back edge of box), so make sure you've got enough room. I had a light switch box on the opposite side of the wall that I had to replace with a shallow box to make this fit.

"Ordinary people have personal and family issues to resolve. Counseling can help prevent normal life challenges from becoming more difficult, and can address serious problems or unexpected crises when they do occur. My counseling style, developed during 20 years of professional experience, combines multiple approaches and techniques to utilize "what works" with a particular problem. We will work together in an interactive process to explore your unique situation and choose what steps to take. I offer individual and family appointments, assisting clients to reach their personal potential and improve their intimate relationships. I would be happy to be your resource."
"River City Counseling LLC is a clinic that treats alcoholism, drug addiction and other addictions such as gambling. We treat addiction as a physical, mental, and emotional disease. We believe addiction is a disease and that abstinence is essential for long-lasting recovery. Our aim is to assist clients in arresting their disease through an intensive, personalized recovery program that utilizes individualized care. River City Counseling LLC has a high regard for each client and will strive to provide an excellent standard of treatment and care, always with concern and respect."
"Do What You Love, Love What You Do. I love being able help people work through problems that may be holding them back from living the life they dream."
""Do you find yourself feeling stuck? Repeating life & relationship patterns that don't seem to be working any longer. Have you begun to consider that your life could be different, new and fulfilling? I believe that change is always happening. I would be honored to support you through your change process. I bring my experience and expertise as a crisis hotline & suicide prevention worker, suicide intervention educator, sexual assault advocate/counselor to my private practice work. I work with teens, adults, couples and families."
"Through individual therapy, family counseling, or couples counseling I will give you information, tools and assistance you need to find relief from your pain and a solution to your difficulties. I have helped families, couples, and individual clients heal, grow, and change their lives. I work to enhance and expand people's ability to experience deeper connection with themselves and others. I believe in treating the whole person and not just mental health symptoms. Through therapy I help people in their desire to close the gap between where they are right now and where they want to be."
"I strongly believe that every human being goes through difficult times in their lives when counseling may be beneficial. We all struggle with various circumstances where it may be helpful to have a separate, unbiased party and support to process through life events. I see individuals, families and couples and have been working in a therapeutic setting for the last 7 years. My specialties include working with those who struggle with depression, self-esteem and relationship issues, as well as other mood and personality disorders."
"Emily Wish, LLC provides evidence-based and compassionate care for people struggling with eating disorders and body dissatisfaction. We treat children, adolescents, and adults, as well as provide support to those who love them. The courage and bravery that we witness on a daily basis inspires and fuels our passion. We live with the knowledge that our work is bigger than us and we absolutely love and honor that. We understand that the person we are treating is somebody's mother, father, daughter, son, wife, or husband and we vow to always know and acknowledge that."
"I believe that life is amazing, however, it can also be challenging. At times there may be situations that occur that we may find overwhelming which cause our day to day activities become more difficult. You do not have to face those difficult times alone. I would like to provide information, tools and skills to help guide you through the difficult times and help you find a solution to the problem as well as relief."
"A broken heart. It is what finally brings many people to counseling. If you have experienced a traumatic event, it is likely that most of your relationships have been affected. Some may be estranged or have ended. The pain of the original trauma compounds with each loss: relationships, jobs, motivation to participate in activities you used to enjoy. Perhaps your health has suffered."
"I like working with folks from all different backgrounds, cultures, and socioeconomic status. My work generally focuses on adults but do see some adolescents."
""I have confidence you will be successful in changing your life with skills you develop through your journey of therapy. I believe every person has the ability to live life to the fullest and pursue their goals. I trust the process of therapy will provide you skills to succeed throughout the objectives you set forth in your future. I have been successful helping people cope with their personal struggles within their journey of life.""
""Everyday is a second chance." I believe all people hold within themselves the strength and knowledge to make changes in their lives and find healing. I believe my responsibility is to help my clients find that strength and knowledge within themselves and to develop the skills to use them. I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist/Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. I earned my Masters Degree from the Minnesota School of Professional Psychology at Argosy University. I am a Certified PREPARE/ENRICH Counselor (Relationship Counseling). I works with children, adolescents, adults, couples, families, and groups dealing with various life changes."
"Your choice in considering assistance to overcome personal obstacles and progress forward indicates a level of commitment to improving your sense of well-being and overall contentment. Together, we can achieve your personal goals. Combining conventional and alternative approaches, a variety of styles and techniques are employed to incorporate what will be the most beneficial for the individual client. With sensitivity and compassion, I assist clients in discovering solutions to a wide range of life challenges and psychological issues. Specializing in adolescent issues, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and relationship issues. Hypnotherapy is offered as a less traditional approach."
"I believe every person should be treated with dignity and respect. My clients bring a rich diversity of experience to our sessions and I feel I learn as much from them as they may from me. I think of myself as a collection of tools and it is my clients responsibility to tell me what tools work and which ones don't. I am not afraid to refer to other professionals if I feel ill equipped for my particular client needs. I look forward to working with you."
"In therapy, Dr. Parrish maintains an integrative approach, incorporating Cognitive-Behavioral, Narrative and Solution-Focused therapies predicated from a Christian perspective. He also places strong emphasis on self-care and mindfulness. Dr. Parrish appreciates the difficulties associated with living and being human. He also appreciates the importance of "being" with clients wherever they are in their journey. He feels honored and excited to witness clients' self-discovery of their own "inner-expert" through the therapeutic process."
"Life is rarely easy. Whether we thrive or feel defeated by life may depend upon the perspectives and skills that we bring to difficult situations. Relief from both emotional and physical pain can come with acceptance of those things that we cannot change in the present moment and from developing a set of attitudes and skills for changing our relationships to the things we cannot change while also allowing us to pursue valued goals and activities with a sense of commitment, satisfaction, purpose, confidence, and joy, despite our metaphorical demons and despite the various metaphorical wrenches life throws at us."
"Often people are searching for new ways to find their potential. Through counseling, I help people to explore, understand self limiting thinking and behaviors to live more meaningful and purposeful lives. I use an Eclectic therapeutic approach to serve each client's need to assist the process of working toward balance."
"I want to help you improve the quality of your life. I have a mission to reach out and care for anyone that needs it. I focus on personal strengths and encouragement to teach others how to build on and improve their self image by way of lifestyle and behavior changes. I believe that anyone can change and better their life if they want to and are willing to work at it. I assess emotional, spiritual and physical health and work with you to improve on any area that you want. I will take the time to listen to your story and go from there."
"I work with children, teens, and adults to manage and assist with difficulties that interfere with daily functioning, which include depression, separation anxiety, bipolar disorder, grief and loss issues, divorce, and trauma while working together to reach goals in a safe and confidential environment."
"Have you tried traditional "talk therapy" to manage your fears and worries, and found that it just doesn't work? You're not alone. The good news is that other, more effective, treatments are available! At OATS, your Specialist will work with you to design a treatment plan that works where Anxiety happens: at home, the grocery store, a crowded mall...anywhere! You will be guided through evidence-based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and exposure-based interventions to address your specific needs. These treatments are highly effective, and the results last! Please call today to find out more. Free initial 20-minute consultation."

'Collected Stories' collaboration an uneven read
Neatly arranged nesting dolls - appearing on an upstage table in a Greenwich Village apartment - tell us a lot about the theme and structure of Donald Margulies' "Collected Stories." Under C.

Author Ruth Steiner (Sarah Day) has lived in that apartment for more than 30 years. Star-struck Lisa Morrison (Laura Frye), the young writer who bursts into Ruth's life in the first scene, is Ruth's latest protégée - another nesting doll aspiring to replicate, on a smaller scale, her master's form. »Read Full Article

Sapiro and Zempel shine in Acacia's 'Heaven Sent'
As children sing Christmas carols in the gathering gloom, a man bends over his work desk, trying to ignore the sound. Asked by a neighbor for help, he first wants to ensure she can pay. Encouraged to come join his fellows, he grumpily refuses, preferring to count his safely stowed money.
I could be describing Dickens' "A Christmas Carol," but I'm actually recounting the first scene in playwright Rick Whelan's "Heaven Sent," which is receiving its Midwest premiere courtesy of www.acaciatheatre.com/">Acacia Theatre, under directors Elaine Wyler and Michael Landers. »Read Full Article

"The White Sox are asking teams for a young starting pitcher plus additional players for right fielder Jermaine Dye. The Mets, Rays and Phillies are among the teams balking at such a price."
Although the Rays have a need for a right-handed bat in a right field/DH-type role, Dye does not seem like a great fit. He had a nice bounce back season for the Chicago White Sox, batting .292/.344/.541/.885 OPS, with 34 home runs to help lead his team to the postseason. However, he is due around a little under $11.5-million in 2009, the last year of his current contract. This means that he is essentially a rent-a-player who is not exactly stellar defensively and would hurt the Rays' excellent run prevention efforts. Considering the price, his bad knees and age (34), he is not the type of player who Andrew Friedman would seriously consider.
True, Dye is only two year's removed from an MVP-caliber season in which he posted career highs in OBP (385), OPS (1.006), slugging percentage (.622) and wOBA (.412). He also put to rest any concerns from his dismal '07 campaign (.338 wOBA), posting a .371 clip.
Regardless, Dye is likely to decline and would not be a good fit in the turf at Tropicana Field. In Bill James' projections for '09, he has Dye putting together a line .270/.334/.491, with a .357 wOBA. This, factoring in defense, would not be that much of an upgrade, anyway, considering the financial implications and cost of prospects.
Rosenthal continues:
"One potentially interested executive said his team was concerned that Dye batted only .210 with runners in scoring position and two outs last season — 36 points below the American League average."
This was interesting to me. Of all the red flags, why focus on this? Dye certainly struggled with RISP and two outs, batting .210/.269/.306. Still, that line was based on 62 at-bats, which is not exactly a hefty sample size. The thought process of that unnamed executive is undoubtedly concerning, and, from where I am standing, makes it unlikely that they work for the Rays.
Rosenthal also touches on some other rumors regarding Tampa Bay, which is looking to upgrade at DH. Given the current state of the economy, he says, the Rays could end up finding a bargain in a short-term deal with one of the bigger free-agent bats available. One of the names listed is Jason Giambi, whose name also surfaced in a recent New York Post article (though it was essentially a rumor created by a single writer). It is unlikely that the Rays will be able to afford Giambi, who quietly put together a nice performance in his final go-around with the New York Yankees. The left-handed hitting slugger posted a .373 OBP, .502 slugging percentage and a 128 OPS+ while hitting 32 home runs. He finished with a .372 wOBA as well, as he continued to do three things consistently: draw a bunch of walks, hit home runs and strikeout.
With that being said, Giambi would provide a tremendous boost to a Tampa Bay lineup that was actually less productive than in 2007—when they finished in last place in the division. His on-base skills would be a welcome addition, and he would not have to play first base as frequently as he did in New York with Gold Glover Carlos Pena returning. In all honesty, whichever teams he signs with should tell him to put his glove away for good.
Still, a deal is unlikely. The Rays will wait to see what the market dictates before they make a move, if any. Barring a weak demand for Giambi, his agent will likely generate a multi-year, multi-million dollar deal that would obviously cancel out the Rays as a potential suitor. Plus, he is left-handed.
Cork Gaines dismissed this rumor in a recent post.
"Giambi's agent: [covers phone, giggles like a school girl] OK. Let's start at three years, $45 million.
World B. Friedman: [gulps] But...but your guy is old and we only had to pay Cliff Floyd $2.75 million for half of a season's worth of work. Giambi is one-dimensional and baseball gloves probably should get a restraining order against him. Even PECOTA says he was only worth $9-10 million in 2008. How about two years, $12 million?
Giambi's agent: Listen, my guy just posted an OPS+ of 130 which was just behind Vlad the Impaler and Miguel Cabrera and just ahead of Grady Sizemore, Magglio Ordonez and David Ortiz. That OPS+ was better than free agents Adam Dunn, Raul Ibanez and Pat Burrell. He is only 37, and have you seen him recently? I don't want to say my boy is back on the juice, but have you seen his arms recently? He is bigger than when he got busted the first time...Uh, I mean the only time...or whatever it was that he apologized for and never admitted to...Three years, minimum. And he made $23 million in 2007. My client is used to a certain lifestyle."
Also, Trever Miller reportedly agreed to a preliminary contract with the St. Louis Cardinals last Friday. The deal is still not yet official, however. Miller posted a 107 ERA+ in 43.3 innings and recorded some big outs for the Rays this past season.

Gannon women shut out Shippensburg
- Gannon 2, Shippensburg 0: At Gannon University Field, Kaitlyn Kissell broke a scoreless tie midway through the second half and Gannon tacked on another to earn a win over a PSAC East opponent.
After a scoreless first half, Mani Brueckner fed Kissell, who deposited a header into the net in the 67th minute. Brueckner then found Michelle Genetin for an insurance goal less than 12 minutes later.
Gannon outshot Shippensburg 13-9, and the Knights' Sarah Geffel made two saves in goal to record the shutout.
