Roy Halladay scattered two hits over four innings, striking out two in four innings of work as the Phillies beat the Nats 6-3.
During the game, Todd Zolecki reported that Delmon Young is aiming for a mid-April return. Zolecki insinuated that Dom Brown is likely to start the year as the team's right fielder and then move to left once Young is ready to return.
The Good
Obviously, this begins with Doc. Doc absolutely handcuffed the Nats today. Brown had two more hits and Tommy Joseph went 3 for 4, raising his average to .462. Antonio Bastardo, Justin De Fratus, and Jake Diekman combined for three scoreless innings, scattering two hits and striking out five.
Areas of Opportunity
Chad Durbin was really the only Phil to struggle today. Durbin gave up three earned in one inning of work.
26 Comments
Nothing against Durbin but i wonder if he was truly necessary.
Possible area of concern: @DKnobler: It's early, but scouts in Florida already wondering about Halladay. 86-88 today. One scout: "He's not the same guy."
@DKnobler: Part of concern with Halladay is that he was always a guy who looked strong right from the start of spring.
Shades of Ken Rosenthal's ominous tweets of last spring.
Halliday gave this team everything he had, and Amaro didnt back him.
I really dislike Amaros arrogance/smugness. Have you ever heard this guy in a n interview?
he could really give Andy a run for his money.
2 hits over 4 innings..I think Doc is smart enough to still pitch well with a little less velocity.
I realize this comment may be totally off the wall but watching Doc struggle in the heat of the Summer made me wonder whether he has a hydration problem that no one has picked up on.
My son always makes sure he's well-hydrated when he exercises. yet two years ago, while in basic training (where they make sure everyone is hydrated) he felt fine after a day's activity. He returned to the barracks and promptly fainted. His kidney's had begun to shut down from a combo of heat and exercise and he had to be pulled from the daily routine long enough to prevent him from graduating with his class.
To different degrees, it's not all that uncommon a condition.
Sorry, but it popped into my mind one day as I caught a close-up of Doc's pained and sweat-drenched face last summer.
Like my son, Doc has a strong work ethic dedicated and likely pushes his own limits for the good of the team.
Yes, I suppose the Phillies' medical team would have caught a problem, but then again, four separate sports doctors allegedly gave their blessings for the Bynum Trade.
While I'm on the subject, I wonder whether Ryan Howard has ever had his eyes tested to see if there's a correction needed that might help him pick up lefties better than he does?
Okay, that's the end of my unsolicited and amateur medical opinions for the day. Promise.
Not that I'm positioned to qualify as a critic of Danny Knobler, but suffice to say he seems to have a good sense of baseball. But I can't help but wonder if he sought a second opinuon, or radar reading before running with the story. Not that it's a big deal. I still want to see Doc's next spring starts before really feeling strongly on where he's at. Not that it matters.
Halladay's comment, according to Matt Gelb:
"We're all kind of going through that time in spring when you're overcoming a little bit of dead arm and your body is tired," Halladay said. "Those first few weeks of spring training catch up to you. I feel good with that in mind."
Joseph had a solid day. A report on MLB stated that he even had the stones to pester Doc between innings for what they would do next. All good signs.
Amaro mistake #242
Getting rid of Raul Ibanez, and even though its hard to believe we actually downgraded from him, Raul actually outperformed Mayberry even playing 19 less games than him. Not only did Amaro not adequately deal with personnel replacement for LF in 2012, he has also not dealt with it for 2013. As a matter of fact if you think it cant get any worse than Mayberry last season, it just might.
I haven't seen Phil's spring training much so far, but does anyone notice that Ryan seems to limps when he runs. Maybe it's just me.
That last comment is totally over my head. From 2 months ago. Really.
My only concern is that when Cholly sees the fires going, he brings out the brigade a little sooner than later.
Durbin was way off – if it was not ST he should have been yanked.
Re: " Dom Brown is likely to start the year as the team's right fielder and then move to left once Young is ready to return."
Could Delmon be in possession of pictures of Ruben in a compromising position with a sheep?
Why else would management want Delmon Young in right while simultaneously discombobulating Dom Brown…again? I mean, we're not talk Roberto Clemente when were talking Delmon Young… or are we? I mean, I don't think Clemente had right sewed up this tight before playing his first inning of his first spring training with the Pirates.
And Clemente didn't come to training fat and off major surgery.
Just asking.
Really, I hate being so down on Delmon.
I know I must be sounding like a broken record and I'm truly sorry, but…
This quoted exchange in Todd Zolecki's column is symptomatic of what it is I don't like about Young:
Ruben: "-…when he's ready to play in Philadelphia, we feel he's ready to contribute to our club."
But Young said he hasn't been champing at the bit to get into Grapefruit League games.
"No, not really," he said. "It's cold and it's only March 6. I'm not anxious at all."
Regardless, Young is going to play right field and only right field whenever he joins the Phillies.
That is his preference.
That is the Phillies' preference, too.
"Because he's not good in left field," Amaro explained. "And he doesn't want to play there. He's a much better right fielder as he came through the system in Tampa Bay. He played center and right. He was a plus defender in right, and because of the circumstances, got away from that in other organizations. He's much more suited for right field."
First off, it makes me uncomfortable when a player isn't chomping at the bit to play in any weather short of a level 5 hurricane – especially one who is new to the team and coming off an injury. Does that sound somewhat less than enthusiastic to anyone else here?
Second, Young's not playing left because he doesn't want to play left?
What if Dom Brown said the same to Ruben? I assume they'd trade him in a New York minute.
And when Ruben says Young was a "plus" fielder, did he mean to say "plus-sized" fielder?
If you look at Young's career versus expectations, it lends toward some degree of criticism and disappointment. That's how I'd define him in attempted objectivity. If you read the views and warnings of a fair number of fans and blogging types, it's the end of the world.
My own position is we'll see what the guy can do. The shortcomins are a source of concern, but when Hall of Famer Pat Gillick is involved in a personnel decision, it's not a bad idea to at least wait and see how it works out.
There's plenty of time to be down on the guy. I wouldn't be too concerned with his saying he's not too anxious to play right now. When he's ready, the judgement should be on if he plays hard.
To wbramh: Apparently you missed a portion of Amaro's comments about Young: "I'm just hopeful in the early part of April or the middle of April he's playing in games enough so we can start to really evaluate and work on that part of his game. We've talked about it before. We've got to make sure the guy can play well defensively for us to have him in our outfield."
That doesn't sound to me like Delmon is any kind of a lock for any position.
I also wouldn't be too concerned about Young's lack of anxiety. It IS cold, it IS early, and he DOES have a major injury. Why should he worry needlessly about something doctors have forbidden him to do anyway?
No, I didn't miss any portion of Ruben's comments – I just interpret them differently from you and perhaps others here.
Delmon is not a rookie so Ruben must already know all about his defensive capabilities which means he's only concerned with Delmon's defense post surgery – and that makes more sense. To me, it also suggests an ambulatory Delmon Young was always going to be a lock for right field.
As for Young's comments, I'm sorry, but maybe it was just a bad choice of words to suggest he wasn't anxious to get out on the field and play ball, but I think most professionals would have issued some frustration at not being out there with their team mates even if they believed it wasn't a good idea to play in chilly weather. So his comments continue to rub me the wrong way. I know Delmon has not been terribly careful with his words in the past, but to the best of my knowledge he was sober during the interview.
Why the hell is it so hard to answer my question from last night. Has anyone else noticed that Ryan limps when he runs.
You guys missed a bit of a story from yesterday… Strasburg plunked Utley in the leg and then the next inning Halladay motioned to Utley and proceeded to throw behind one of the Nats hitters (with two outs). Utley was quoted telling Halladay that he needed to throw at more batters this year… love to see Halladay stick up for his teammates and it seems like there's a nice healthy rivalry brewing between us and the Nats. It will be a great season.

Few seats contested in Belpre election
BELPRE – Tuesday's general election will have few city decisions for Belpre voters with only one-fifth of the races contested.
Along with seven city council seats, residents are asked to choose a council president, city auditor and city treasurer with two of these 10 races needing a decision as the others have one person wanting the seat.
"I think competition is healthy," said current City Auditor Leslie Pittenger, who was elected uncontested in 2009.
The city auditor position sees George R. Holland (non-partisan), the owner of Liberty Tax Service in Belpre and Pomeroy, vying against Pittenger, a Republican.
"I decided to run after several people came into my business and said they would like to see personality back in the auditor's office," said Holland, 42. "I want to take an indepth look into how and where the city's money is going."
Holland, who has not held a public office, believes his 15 years of accounting and tax preparation experience with his wife, Alison, can be used to the city's advantage.
"I am very involved in the Boy Scouts and Little League sports and want to try something different," he said.
In her four years as auditor, Pittenger said she has made a number of significant changes to the office, including upgrading the software system for better efficiency, doing city payroll in-house and upgrading equipment for the department.
"One of the biggest changes was the focus on the city income tax situation," she said. "The cost of upgrading the city's system would have cost significantly more than outsourcing it and our collections are up because of it."
In January 2012, Regional Income Tax Agency (RITA) began doing the personal and business income tax after city council approved the change.
"I am incredibly proud of my staff for having been awarded the Auditor of State Award," Pittenger added.
In September, Ohio's Auditor of State David Yost recognized the city auditor's office for having clean, accurate financial record-keeping for the fiscal year ending in 2012.
Although all seven city council seats are scheduled to be filled this election, the council-at-large seats are the only ones with competition as four residents are vying for three positions.
"I am running because there are a lot of people not paying attention to what is going on in the city government," said Donna Miller, 76. "I don't have an ax to grind, but I want to make a difference for the city."
Miller previously served one two-year term on council in 1976 and a four-year term on the Belpre City Schools District Board of Education.
"I know people are busy today and many have taken the attitude that they don't care about what goes on around them and that isn't right," she said. "I would like to be a watchdog for the people."
Incumbent Susan Abdella (R) has served seven terms on council and wants to continue working to develop the city's economy.
"I enjoy being involved in the community around us," she said. "Belpre is growing and changing and I want to continue to be a part of that and keep the momentum going."
Another incumbent John Newberry (D), who was appointed to council by the Washington County Democratic Party Central Committee in March 2012 after longtime councilman John Baker (D) stepped down, hopes to continue working for the people.
"It has been a learning experience and I want to keep learning and helping the residents of Belpre," he said.
Candidate William B. Scott could not be reached for comment.
Current terms for Mayor Mike Lorentz and City Law Director Tom Webster will end Dec. 31, 2015.
All others running for Belpre City Council seats are running unopposed: 1st Ward Councilman Larry Martin (R), 2nd Ward Councilwoman Debbie Marshall, 3rd Ward Councilman William Gilbert (R), longtime 4th Ward Councilman Dewey Robinson (D), council president Will Neff and newcomer Kylie Martin for treasurer.
There are no ballot issues this election.
Early voting begins today at the Washington County Board of Elections office in the Washington County Courthouse in Marietta. It will end Nov. 4.
The last day to register to vote was Oct. 7.

Dear members,
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff
It's not about getting owned. :p
It's about to study the manga better and not trust everything you see here and there.
If you look at the manga and the anime as well you'll find lots of differences. But oh well...

http://www.narutobase.net/manga/Naruto/602/18 (young kakashi)
Is this Kakashi a zetsu clone on the last page of Chapter 604?
Idk, maybe. But have just lost it in the fight.
FAIL big time!! its not a dam zetsu clone. theres no way zetsu is able to use chidori and as they draw closer obitos sharigan is able to connect with kakashi's thats why he gets a glimps of Rin.
I'm confused... HOW is this a nice find?
Well I already said that and explained it. What proves it must be a clone is the fact that Kakashi looks just like he looked before Obito "died", which could be when Zetsu last saw him and zetsu could only make a similar copy to that.. He took his headband off to treat his eye after his injury, and the cut in the mask was also from that time..
And why would he still look like that so long after? And by so long I'm saying it's at LEAST a month.. Also Rin and Kakashi wouldn't in some weird place alone..
Kakashi ha sfought before with just his sharingan activated, so he can see chakra and know where his enemies are better than his right eye, since he cant deactivate it he hides it, kinda like how his right eye is useless while he uses a sharingan, doesnt mean he is zetsu.
Somethings not right with kakashi's right arm.(the arm he uses for chidori)
On this page his right arm is missing the forearm gear.(hand to elbow) Take a look at his left arm that hand to elbow gear is there.
In this pic where kakashi just received Obito's sharingan, he has his right arm has the forearm gear.(hand to elbow)
Somethings very strange about the Kakashi thats killing rin

He might be a clone, but having the headband on or not has absolutely nothing to do with it xD. He's been shown before without it.
Why does Rin say "Kakashi" then? Where is the real Kakashi if that's the real Rin? Zetsu kidnapped the real Kakashi?
This must be true then because Rin has a headband = it must be real Rin according to your logic.
If they aren't real the plot would suck. You'll see next week it isn't Zetsu
Nothing with Obito makes sense unless they're both real. The shinobi system isn't cruel to Obito if it's Zetsu - Madara / Zetsu are. Why don't you people get it? This is his reason for turning bad:
His one teammate having to kill the teammate he loves and him realizing Madara is right by his own mind. Madara is right, the shinobi world is wrong. That's what Obito is supposed to gain from the

I think it is more likely that rin would be the Zetsu. During the Kakashi Gaidan chapter when rin was captured Obito mentioned that Rin's chakra was different, http://www.narutobase.net/manga/Naruto/243/5
but not knowing about Zetsu at the time just wrote it off as rin being under some kind of genjutsu, and since she was held captive right at madra's door step they could have made the switch there. I know it say that the Zetsu clone supposedly copy's the person right down the there chakra it could be possible that the sharingan can still see through it (just like Naruto can tell while he is in nine tails chakra mode)
hence Obito noticing Rin's chakra was different while she was captured. So kakashi could have finally relized later on that that wasn't the real rin and killed her.
Last edited by Odemgee; 10-04-2012 at 03:34 PM.
If you look in that picture where kakashi killed rin, you can see that he's crying. I'm guessing she asked kakashi to do it for some reason unknown to us. Obito was just at the wrong place at the wrong time. Obito probably wont say anything to kakashi, otherwise kakashi would know he was alive.
Kakashi is going to talk-no-jutsu obito later.
Look summing up the basics it has highest possibility of being a clone, not due to a headband or anything, but simply because of the way he is dressed. Except for an arm guard on the arm he used chodori with, he looks exactly like he did, when they finished their mission, which is why it seems to be a clone. He should have been back at the village since, and would have been given a new headband, since he can't go on missions without..
Also the entire situation is weird. Why would the 2 of them be alone in this area? There should be other Konoha shinobi as well, they never go on a 2 man mission, specially not children... Where are the mist shinobi etc? It looks like a battlefield as well. It doesn't look right, it seems like it has been staged.
But then again knowing Kishi I think it's real. He will have some weird twist again...
Nice FIND....It's either Rin was being controlled(Or maybe evil) Or maybe Kakashi fell under a genjutsu....
It doesn't matter to me.....EITHER WAY,RIN DIES .... :D .. ..........+REP LOL

idk why didn't he have it at the end of kakashi gaiden? HE MUST BE A ZETSU CLONE!!!

text: From my earliest memory, whenever I was asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, my answer was always the same, "I want to be an Artist". At that time, I didn't really know what that meant. I just knew that I could draw really well. And at fifty seven years of age, I still am not sure what it means to be an Artist. But I will tell you this, I know how to draw really, really well.

Business is booming. It must be, because five new businesses opened in Honesdale since the summer. One would think since the county and the nation are in the midst of one of the most persistent recession since the 1930s, it would be the worst time to launch a new business venture. Not so, says the majority of the new business owners.
"I'm new for Honesdale but not for business," said Bonnie McDonald of the Sun Flower Hollow Store at 630 Main Street in the space that was once the Yoga Café. McDonald moved her existing business from Hawley a few weeks ago.
"I moved here because there are more opportunities here than elsewhere," she said. "There's a lot more that attract people to here, a lot of great stores and great eating places, the kind of things that attract people."
Right next door at 622 Main Street is Camp Umpy's Bagels and Stuff, owned and operated by Honesdale native Cheryl Batcher. Going in at lunch time, the store was bristling with people.
"We have good hard-working people in Honesdale," Batcher said. "People come to town for a lot of reasons. This is my town and I love it."
"We wanted something of our own," said Jamie Maher, co-owner, with her husband Tom, of the Cottage Café at 622 Church Street. "There's a need for this kind of store with affordable, fresh brunch and lunch food at a convenient location. We want to create a unique atmosphere that attracts people. We have local artists' work up on our walls, which we rotate every few months." The café offers special events like baby showers, weddings and engagement showers, she said.
The Tye Dye at 1029 Main Street is more like a coffee house than a café, said its owner Cindy Blair. "We're a coffee house that stays open all day," she said. "We lost a coffee house when the Yoga Café closed so we wanted to open this one where people can hang out, talk and drink coffee and eat gluten-free desserts.
Blair plans events for all ages, with such things as poetry readings and storytelling, a book club, game nights, movie watching on a large TV screen and a talent night.
Joe Roche, owner of Mojo Music at 742 Main Street, sells a variety of musical instruments like guitars, basses, key boards, drum sets and other instruments and brings in professional music teachers to teach playing and singing.
"Honesdale needs a full music store where instruments are sold, repaired and lessons taught," he said. He said he opened his store because he could find a job after being laid off. "Smart money invests when times are hard," he said.
"Business people see that Honesdale is a prosperous and growing town and they want to take advantage of that," said Gail Tucker, executive director of the Greater Honesdale Partnership. "We spend a lot of money to bring people to the town with street events and other events that attracts thousands of people. We are seeing both retail and service industries coming here because we have created a growing business atmosphere. People are discovering that this is not the Honesdale of 10 years ago but a new spirited place."

Protesters refuse to leave Florida Capitol
Published: Thursday, July 18, 2013 at 6:58 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, July 18, 2013 at 6:58 p.m.
TALLAHASSEE — Protesters are refusing to leave the state Capitol for a third straight night.
Activists upset with the verdict in the George Zimmerman trial say they will remain in the Capitol until Gov. Rick Scott meets their demand to have legislators revamp the state's self-defense laws.
Scott has been out of town and has said no to a special session. He also has said he does not see a reason to change Florida's "stand your ground" law.
The protesters appear to be well-stocked for a lengthy stay.
The Capitol Police so far has been allowing the group to remain in the Capitol hallways overnight.
The group is upset that Zimmerman was acquitted of second-degree murder and manslaughter charges in the 2012 shooting death of Trayvon Martin.

Traders turn to swap alternatives as regulation bites
Around a third of firms trading over-the-counter derivatives will direct more business to exchange-traded futures markets as traders get to grips with changes to the swap market, according to a UBS survey.
In the bank's fourth annual survey of participants in the OTC derivatives markets, 29% of respondents said they had already or were likely to direct swaps business towards the variety of similar products listed on CME Group, IntercontinentalExchange's Liffe or Eurex.
Furthermore, 84% expected that up to 30% of their OTC derivatives trading could be done via such products in the future. Around 40% of respondents thought it was too early to tell whether such a switch would occur, which UBS said was due to market participants not having enough time to assess alternatives.
Alex Kramm, analyst at UBS and one of the authors of the report, said: "Over the last year many people have been preparing to comply with the new rules, which probably accounts for the level of uncertainty in the survey. But now, more firms are ready and are switching their focus to improving the efficiency of their OTC derivatives trading and this is when the switch to futures could occur."
Meanwhile, new Futures Industry Association figures show that the number of futures and options traded on global exchanges rose 2.1% to 21.64 billion contracts in 2013. While the levels remain well below those seen in 2011 and 2010, North America showed growth.
Volumes in North America rose by 10%, led by gains at the CME Group and IntercontinentialExchange. North American exchanges accounted for 36.7% of the global exchange-traded derivatives market in 2013 — up from 33.6% in 2012 — leapfrogging Asia to represent the largest region in the world for futures trading. Asia-Pacific's share fell from 35.6% in 2012 to 33.7% last year.
Volumes in Asia, Europe and Latin America were all down on previous years.
By asset class, interest rates, energy, and the metals sector all benefited from double digit increases in volume. The equity index sector declined by 11.2%, primarily due to a decline in the trading of Korea's Kospi 200 index options, according to the FIA.
The increased volumes in futures and options trading on exchanges follows G20-led reforms to the swaps markets that will raise the cost of trading and promote on-exchange trading.
The new regulations, which are in the process of being implemented across the globe, require clearing houses to stand in the middle of a swap trade and collect collateral in order to minimise the risks of a counterparty default.
Swaps require more collateral to be held against them than futures and 38% of respondents to the UBS survey said this was the primary driver of the switch to futures. Other drivers included lower execution costs (28%), better liquidity (21%) and broader access (7%).
According to the UBS study: "Given the likelihood for higher participation costs and uncertainty about future liquidity in OTC derivatives market, we are not surprised to see market participants considering substitutes to OTC markets. In fact, we believe increasing buyside education by exchanges, FCMs [futures commission merchants], and industry consultants has driven a much higher awareness of the increasing costs to transact in OTC markets and the opportunities to find substitutes in futures markets."
One product that is gaining traction in the US as an alternative to OTC derivatives is swap futures, contracts that replicate an OTC derivative through a standardised exchange-traded future.
CME Group and Eris Exchange are among the US exchanges that have launched swap futures for interest rates, while Ice offers a credit default swap future.
Half of those questioned by UBS said they planned to make more use of the CME swap future, which traded a record average of 12,000 contracts per day last December.
A number of trading venues in Europe, including the London Stock Exchange, Eurex, Nasdaq OMX NLX are also looking at similar products.
However the survey adds that the rules governing collateral in Europe are not finalised. This means that the collateral required against a swap could be similar to a future, negating the cost savings gained from replacing an OTC derivative exposure with a swap future.
Final European rules on collateral are expected in the third quarter of this year.

Hi evveryone.
I've been back to work now for about three weeks, DD is almost 4 months. I have not been on time yet for work because I just can't get my morning schedule down (pumping, nursing, showering, cleaning pump, sleeping as much as possible ) ANY input would be appreciated.
I need to be at work at 7:30, my commute is 15 minutes. I pump once at work, but she takes two bottles during the day. So far if I pump each morning before work, I end up with 2 or 3 extra bottles at the end of the week.
Today I let her sleep and I pumped because I'd like her to get used to sleeping later in the AM for the weekends when I'm not working.
Any input on how I could arrange things would be great.

Broaden the debateApril 14,2014
For years now, Americans have been engaged in a bitter debate over the rights guaranteed to citizens by the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution.
While this debate has raged, more than 30,000 people a year have died in firearm-related incidents, many of them involving handguns.
As a reminder, here is the amendment, word for word: A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
To many Americans, that wording strongly suggests that there should be no restrictions against the possession of personal firearms. The National Rifle Association is the most strident advocate of that interpretation, and it has worked tirelessly to secure extremely strong support among our nations lawmakers.
But theres been a tendency well, perhaps it would be more accurate to describe it as a deliberate strategy by gun rights advocates to overlook the well regulated Militia wording in the amendment and that may help explain why these advocates have so far been so successful.
Greatly adding to the their success has been the support theyve enjoyed from a majority of the United States Supreme Court.
And so today the United States is regarded around the world as a nation where the rights of gun-owners and the frequently gruesome consequences of those unrestricted rights take precedence over common sense.
Lets face it: The NRA is among the most potent lobbying organizations not only in Washington but in state capitals around the nation. Its primary mission appears to be to discourage the passage of any legislation, at any level, that in any way might impede the private ownership of pistols, revolvers, rifles, shotguns or even automatic weapons designed for combat.
To the extent the issue is being debated, the NRA and its supporters are clearly carrying the day. It isnt even close.
But now comes former Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens he was an associate justice from 1975 to 2010 with an idea that, if it could gain traction, would give the NRAs foes that is, all advocates of sensible gun control laws great encouragement.
The Washington Post this past weekend published an essay excerpted from Justice Stevens new book, Six Amendments: How and Why We Should Change the Constitution.
In his essay, Stevens suggested adding just five words to the Second Amendment so that it would read: A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms when serving in the Militia shall not be infringed.
Heres more from Stevens: Emotional claims that the right to possess deadly weapons is so important that it is protected by the federal Constitution distort intelligent debate about the wisdom of particular aspects of proposed legislation designed to minimize the slaughter caused by the prevalence of guns in private hands.
And the way to nullify these emotional arguments, he adds, would be to adopt his proposed amendment.
The amendment certainly would not silence the powerful voice of the gun lobby; it would merely eliminate its ability to advance one mistaken argument, Stevens observes.
Its unlikely the amendment the former justice proposes will soon be adopted, but by drawing attention to the full wording of the Second Amendment his book should encourage others to at least take its clearly understood original meaning into consideration and thus further the cause of those who favor sensible gun controls that still enjoy Constitutional protection.
Broadening the debate would be the patriotic thing to do.MORE IN LettersA sixth-offense DUI gets plead down to a misdemeanor. A breathalyzer is refused.

Some of you will be fine-tuning your estate plans and your will this month.
It's important to make sure you're not forgetting or leaving out someone special.
About one in five pet owners already have in writing what happens if their animals outlive them, because the consequences for not doing so can be so severe.
"If you haven't made any arrangements there's a good possibility that your pet could end up in a shelter, and there's an even greater possibility that your pet could be euthanized for lack of finding a loving home," warns Kim Bressant-Kibwe, a trust and estate counsel with the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
The ASPCA Recently teamed up with Legal Zoom to provide the pet protection agreement.
"It costs about $39 and what it allows you to do is to set out some very basic information about the care of your pet. You can name a guardian, a successive guardian," Bressant-Kibwe explains.
She says you can't leave your pet part of your estate, but you can establish a trust fund to pay for future care.
The ASPCA estimates a half million owners die or become incapacitated each year without leaving instructions on how to care for their pets.

Since our last outlook note, Quadrise has begun to supply MSAR for extended LONO sea trials, paving the way for commercial adoption from calendar H217 onwards. In August it signed a memorandum of understanding with clients in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), which is a key enabler for progressing the production-to-combustion pilot there. In October it completed a placing and open offer raising a total of £5.25m (gross). This should enable it to transition comfortably to the commercial phase on successful completion of the LONO and KSA trials.

Operating profits and net cash position – restored; market outlook – precarious
01 Dec 16
The turnaround was noticeable Lonmin's full-year (September-ending) results were ahead of consensus and AV's estimates. Sales came in at $1.1bn (-14% yoy) as the average realised (USD-denominated) PGM prices and sales volumes were down yoy 12% and 2%, respectively. However, platinum sales (736koz) were much ahead of earlier guidance (700koz) – thanks to certain smelting/processing efficiencies, which helped more than offset the impact of reorganisation-related disruptions. After two consecutive years (FY14-15) of hefty operating losses, Lonmin finally reported an adjusted operating profit (even though feeble) of $7m. This was facilitated by the record weakness in the South African rand (down from ZAR12/$ in FY15 to ZAR14.77/$ in FY16) and ZAR1.3bn of cost savings – 86% higher than the earlier target. Disappointingly, Lonmin recognised $335m of asset impairments (vs. $1.8bn in FY2015), which resulted in a full-year net loss of $400m. But the turnaround in reported OCFs – inflow of $58m vs. an outflow of $12m – was a much-needed improvement, which, along with conservative capex (-35% yoy) of $87m, resulted in a net cash position of $173m (with no short-term repayments) vs. a net debt position of $185m (at end-FY15). But the guidance spells caution For FY17, management targets conservative platinum sales of 650-680koz, while unit costs are expected to remain under pressure – ZAR10,800-11,300/oz vs. ZAR10,748/oz achieved in FY16. On the other hand, capex plans would be aggressive – ZAR1.8bn (which includes ZAR400m for the tailings project – already delayed by almost two years) vs. ZAR1.3bn spent in FY16.

Bill Nugent says when reviewing his bank statement, he discovered he was being charged a 25-dollar fee for a line of credit he says he never even applied for. Bill Nugent, "You really should look at your bank statements, because there may be fees you're being charged for that you're not even aware of." Bill ended up consolidating several accounts to avoid the 25-dollar fee. Consumer Reports Money Adviser says being proactive is key in the war against escalating bank fees. Banks have lost billions of dollars as a result of bad loans, the weak economy, and recent regulatory changes, and they're looking to recoup some of that money. "The latest blow to banks are new rules, that virtually cut in half the fee that large banks can charge retailers when people pay with their debit cards."
Even before the debit-card rule went into effect, certain banks -- including USAA Bank, Chase, and U.S. Bank -- announced they will stop offering debit-card rewards for most customers. And what if you lose your debit card? Bank of America is now charging some customers five dollars to replace it. But Consumer Reports Money Adviser says there are ways you can avoid being nickel and dimed. First, even if it looks like junk mail, read all bank correspondence, including the fine print, to keep on top of new fees. And, if you're a longtime customer or have large deposits -- negotiate. You might be able to get a better deal or have certain fees waived. Greg Daugherty, "If there's no way around higher fees, consider moving your account. Good places to consider are local banks, credit unions, and online banks." Consumer Reports says one online bank to consider -- ---- Ally Bank -- offers no-fee, interest-bearing, checking accounts. ."

Thursday is deadline to request absentee ballot
Friday is deadline to cast a ballot early, in person at clerk's office
Voters who wish to cast their ballots ahead of Tuesday's spring election primary have little time left to act.
Thursday is the deadline to request an absentee ballot by mail from the local municipal clerk. And Friday is the deadline to cast a ballot early, in person at the clerk's office.
There is only one statewide race on Tuesday's ballot. The field of three candidates for state Supreme Court will be narrowed to two for the April 2 general election.
Sample ballots showing voters what other local races will be on the ballot can be viewed at http://myvote.wi.gov .
Polls are open statewide Tuesday 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.
The Government Accountability Board predicts turnout will be less than 10 percent.

|Publication ID: Fall 2009
|Title: ●Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program: Civil Rights Protections for SNAP Households
|Abstract: This proposed rule is to codify one provision of the Farm Bill of 2008 and reference a second. First, in accordance with section 4117 of the Farm Bill, the rule will amend the program regulations at 7 CFR part 272.6(a) to say that the administration of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) by a State agency shall be consistent with the rights of households under: (1) The Age Discrimination Act, (2) section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, (3) the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and (4) title VI of the Civil Rights Act. Second, in accordance with section 4118 of the Farm Bill, we plan to note in the preamble that the current rules requiring bilingual personnel and materials now have the force of law, but that no new regulatory text on bilingual requirements is needed. This will codify one provision and mention a second provision of the 2008 Farm Bill. Regarding the first provision, section 4117 of the Farm Bill clarifies that the administration of SNAP by a State agency shall be consistent with the rights of households under the above four civil rights laws. The SNAP is already subject to these four civil rights laws but the program regulations only mention three of the four laws, omitting the ADA. This is a statutory requirement that does not involve discretion. The regulatory change will now include the ADA. Section 4118 of the Farm Bill provides that State agencies must comply with program rules on bilingual personnel and material. The Food Stamp Act of 1977 (the previous law for SNAP) and current program regulations already require bilingual personnel and material in areas in which a substantial number of low-income household members speak a language other than English. While the substance of the current rules is not affected by this change in the law, the current rule now has the force of law. Accordingly, we plan to note in the preamble that the current rule at 7 CFR part 272.4(b) on bilingual requirements now has the force of law, but that no new regulatory text is needed. These two provisions do not require new State action. Because there is no new State action required, there is no additional cost States would incur from the rulemaking. We anticipate that this rule will not have an impact on the associated paperwork burdens. Note: Executive Order 12250 delegates the approval of rules based on the Civil Rights Act to the Attorney General. Accordingly, some time for DOJ review and concurrence has been factored into our time estimates for this rule. (09-001)

Hey, did you hear? Humanity is doomed. Everyone on the Internet is saying so. While no one seems entirely sure what that doom will entail, we have all established ourselves as professional proof finders of its imminence. We announce it after hypocritical posts on Facebook, when someone incorporates text speak in their vernacular, during political campaigns, and every time a Kardashian opens its mouth. We love drawing a bead on the evidence more than we like doing anything about it because we all learned at an early age while playing The Oregon Trail that hunting is way more fun than trying to save anyone.
"Ha, if anyone's doomed, it's these buffalo. Oh. Sad."
However, if there's one unifying theme to all this certain doom, it seems to be that humanity's end will be a direct result of idiocy; specifically, the idiocy of people who aren't us. All those Aren't Us-es keep ruining everything by spilling their stupid on our favorite things. On the Internet, they show up like stains in the comment sections, in our Twitter feeds, and even in the ads before videos. But here's the rub: All that idiocy and awful behavior you see online is at least partially your fault, and by that I mean the very broad "you" that also includes me. I'm so sorry.
3 You Invented the Troll by Arguing With Crazy People
Comment sections are the crowd-sourced juries of the Internet. In a lawless environment where anyone can cheat or lie without much repercussion, it's only the overlap in public sentiment that determines what's interesting or stupid, original or stolen, funny or fake, and gay. Giving the audience a voice ensures that the comments as a whole will provide a scatter plot of general opinion. But if you pluck any single comment from the group, it may very well be the most depressing thing you will ever read. Without fail, there will always be at least one comment with startling amounts of racism, sexism, and religious fanaticism crammed into a couple sentences. And without fail, some perfectly normal if naive person will decide that today is the day they are going to fix the broken hate-filled mind of a lunatic.
Behind every call for genocide, this is all they see.
To be clear, no one has ever walked away from one of these spirited comment debates on superior races, or domestic battery, or whether mass shootings happen because God is mad at us for being nice to gays, and thought, "Boy, the things Slipperydick311 said really opened my eyes. Time to get my life back on track." In fact, there's a good chance that whoever you argue with online is genuinely crazy. Just because someone has fingers and a keyboard doesn't mean he or she is a normal, functioning human being. If you saw a crazy homeless person in the middle of the street shouting that the Holocaust was a myth, you wouldn't engage that person in a discussion about why he's mistaken. You would just keep walking, because you don't know that man, he's not convincing anyone, and, I can't stress this enough, he's crazy.
"Mexicans have tails!"
You can never win, because you're not fighting against a belief; you are fighting against a psychological imbalance. Yet if that same man wanders into a library and manages to peck out some sentences at the bottom of a YouTube video on a public computer, why on Earth do we allow that to hold more weight?
Worst of all, gifting attention to lunatics online has birthed an entirely new breed of insanity: the troll. A troll is equally as crazy but less interested in convincing you of fringe beliefs and more interested in attention. He will shout just to shout because he has seen firsthand that you will listen, and unlike the other crazy people who started this problem, the troll is only interested in acknowledgement. It's such a confused, strange approach to human connection that I'm not entirely convinced that even the trolls know why they're doing it. But they will be around as long as someone is willing to argue in a comment section, which means they are here for good, and it's the fault of every person who was foolish enough to think they could ever help another human being.
2 Your Relentless Pursuit of Novelty Ruined News
Here is a recent news story about Nigerian girls who invented a urine-powered generator that produces six hours of energy from a liter of piss. Here is another news story about someone finding 18 severed human heads in a package at Chicago O'Hare Airport. Both of these stories are spectacular and engaging, and also only about 10 percent true. In reality, the urine-powered generator extracts hydrogen from the urine at such an underwhelming rate that the process is eating up far more energy than it's producing. Also the girls didn't invent it; it was only a science project.
In the article about the human heads, no one actually opened a package and realized that it contained the trophies of a serial killer. Those were specimens being transferred from one medical lab in Rome to another in the U.S., something that happens all the time. The most interesting part of the story is that the paperwork mentioned what was inside. That's it. The real story is that a delivery guy read some paperwork. Neither one of those sensational stories is actually much of a story at all when all the facts are accounted for, and this type of thing happens all the time. Now, while that may sound dangerously irresponsible on the part of news organizations, you're also about 90 percent to blame for the phenomenon.
I apologize if this isn't actually a picture of you.
The whole reason they aren't completely accurate is because each article absolutely has to be click-friendly to an online audience. In the example of the story about human heads, you can watch the progression of titles as the story makes its way across "news" sites. The Chicago Sun Times, where the story originated, initially led with the header, "Inquiry into Research Facility Holds Up 18 Human Heads at O'Hare." Then Fox News felt comfortable enough tweaking the story to "18 Human Heads Found at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport," and finally Gawker tested the full elasticity of the truth by titling it "18 Severed Human Heads Discovered in Package at Airport; Everyone Being Very Chill About It," because they know that the only way to ensure that people read it is to make the story into something startling enough to become viral.
Now, it's no secret that we don't read newspapers anymore; countless Heralds, Tribunes, Posts, Times, and whatever they read in other countries have folded because we've proven that we prefer our news from blogs and content aggregators like Reddit. And good riddance, right? The newspaper industry is a relic, we're living in the future! Reddit knows how to trim out the fat and give us the very best news from around the world. Everything on Tumblr and the other blogs we follow is guaranteed to be fascinating and specifically catered to us because we handpicked the people who provide it.
But here's the problem: The stories still have to originate somewhere. Someone has to do the fact checking, and the source checking, and the interviews, and break the stories, but those people are all getting fired left and right because we've ensured that journalism isn't a viable career option anymore. So the only way for lean and desperate news outlets to get traffic from aggregators and blogs is if each article is absolutely shocking. As a result, the stories get fudged a little until they're more sharable for an online audience.
It's easiest to think of these refined, processed news stories as Reese's Pieces that make up a tiny portion of your online consumption. They're a nice treat once in awhile, but when they are the entirety of your information diet, the part of your brain that used to be responsible for breaking down the complex, nutrient-filled, TL; DR carbohydrates has nothing to do anymore and starts to atrophy. You start to lose the energy and the will to ask questions about the story and instead cave to the insatiable urge to just keep ingesting.
That's why fake news stories can surge through Twitter before anyone has a chance to debunk them. The Internet allowed for the creation of a fast food version of information that's not particularly good for you but still triggers that same pleasure zone in the brain. You're essentially fattening yourself up with information obesity, because the news outlets, in the end, are businesses that know they can stay in the black by feeding you what you want as opposed to what you need. Meanwhile, reason and rationality rot like neglected teeth. Or maybe it's journalism that's rotting like teeth. I don't know anymore, that metaphor kind of got away from me.

Finally got round to it. Well, I like it but I'm afraid I don't love it (sorry Alex). I really like the tone and the crushing nature of the sound, but the songs are a little one-track minded. They do something but then they tend to stick with it for the rest of the track. I think the album needed a few more 'Disambiguation' like tracks which has a bit of variety. Maybe I've just been spoiled by Lord Mantis.

text: My husband and I are having our first date next week. I have a bunch of ebm saved up from my morning pumping, but don't know if he'll take it. He has only had one bottle of bm and he only took about one ounce. (that was last week while I was at my midterm). I am so worried because I will be going to dinner and then at a concert so I'll be gone for at least 4 hours. He eats about every 2-3 hours right now, but occasionaly (okay always) will want to comfort suck. He won't take a paci and I don't want him to not be able to be consoled. I am sure that this is harder for me then him, but I am soooo worried. He will be 5 and 1/2 weeks when we go out. Any advice to make a smooth transition. How much should I leave my mother in law. I do plan on starting him on one bottle at night with daddy at about 6 weeks. Should I try introducing it now? I don't want to have nipple confusion or preference. I plan to breast feed until at least one year. We do have a great bf relationship as of yet.

Natural Approach to Healing Tendon
Injuries and Tendonitis
A tendon is the tissue by which a muscle attaches to the bone. Tendon injuries are widespread in the adult population, particularly for people whose occupations or recreational athletic activities require repetitive motion of the shoulder, knee, elbow, or ankle joints. Specific tendons are prone to developing tendonitis, a painful condition where the tendon becomes irritated or inflamed. Tendonitis is most often caused by repetitive overuse in training or playing sports. Inflammation can be difficult to cure and tends to heal slowly.
Traditional tendon injury and tendonitis treatments concentrate on reducing inflammation with medications or steroid injections. Surgery may be used for extreme injuries. Boulder Community Health now offers a safe, effective alternative treatment - Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy - that uses a person's own blood to accelerate healing. PRP therapy can be used to repair tendonitis in the elbow, hamstring, patellar tendon, Achilles tendon and rotator cuff.
Benefits of the method include
Contact our PRP specialist at 303-415-7595 to find out if you are a candidate for PRP therapy. If you have had an MRI of the affected area, please provide a copy for review.
This advanced therapy involves injecting plasma harvested from a patient's own blood directly into the injured area. This plasma, rich in platelets, stimulates the body's natural healing system to more quickly repair a chronic injury.
How does PRP therapy heal tendonitis?During the normal healing process, your body sends many types of helpful cells to an injury. One of the most important of these cell types is platelets that are full of growth and healing factors. These growth factor proteins stimulate cell regeneration and recruit other cells to help with repair. PRP therapy harnesses this cell-healing activity by increasing the level of platelets at the site of an injury.
Two tablespoons of a patient's own blood are whirled in a tabletop centrifuge that separates out a half teaspoon of platelet enriched plasma. This process raises the level of platelets in plasma by 5-7 times the amount found in regular whole blood. Using ultrasound to guide the needle, the physician injects the patient's enriched plasma into the damaged area where it super charges the healing process.
How does PRP differ from traditional tendonitis treatments?Most traditional treatments focus on decreasing inflammation. PRP accelerates tendon repair by increasing the body's own healing agents at the injured area.
What is a tendon?A tendon is a tough, flexible band of fibrous tissue that connects muscles to bones. When a muscle contracts it pulls on a bone and causes movement. The tendon transmits the force of the muscle contraction to the bone.
What is tendonitis?Tendonitis is inflammation, swelling and irritation of a tendon. The tendon's normal smooth gliding motion becomes impaired, causing inflammation and pain with movement.
What causes tendonitis?The most common cause of tendonitis is overuse. Tendons are nourished by blood flow that will naturally repair most injuries if the tendon is rested. Continuing to use the injured area aggravates the injury.
Tendons can also become inflamed after a traumatic injury. As with overuse tendonitis, if the body is not allowed ample time to repair the damage and inflammation, chronic tendonitis may result.
Tendonitis can also be caused by age-related changes in the tendon. As people age, tendons become less elastic and tear easier. Accordingly, tendonitis is more common in adults over age 40.

I always find flymake extremely useful when editing code in Emacs.
In this period, I'm working a bit with PHP and I've immediately thought that enabling flymake for Emacs was indeed a good idea.
Well, someone has apparently already thought about it, so everything you need to know about it is explained here.
I tried it on my machine and it worked like a charm. Combined with some PHP documentation integrated in Emacs, I'm now starting to have a complete and powerful development environment for PHP.
I'm now wondering if there's any way to get this a step forward. First of all, I'm trying to identify errors different from the parsing ones. What I would really love, for example, is to have Emacs showing me all the unused variables in a PHP file. If you have any idea on how to achieve this, don't be shy and share your thoughts with me, as a post comment or, if you prefer, as a private e-mail or through twitter.

Prob. Amare will get MVP, but Jeffries will deserve it.
Pure speculation. Pure fun. Not a topic about the Knicks struggles, losses, wins, D'antoni, woodson, etc.
I'd like to think its Carmelo, but realistically it could be STAT as well or even Lin. I'd still go with Melo.
Jeremy Lin
Jeremon Linbury
It won't happen without defense, so Tyson Chandler would deserve it, and win it.
Melo would get it because Lin would struggle against Elite competition and STAT would then not do much because the lack of PG play so Melo puts us on his back and goes 30 and 10 in the series winning the Finals MVP
We won't win, without melo getting it going, or TC locking down the paint, so 1 of those 2.
JR Smith would bring his game to a whole new level.
He'd go HAM off the bench droppin 50 points.
Melo would not get it though, probably Chandler
If we win? Lin
If we lose? Melo

September 7 – November 11, 2013
For the second exhibition of the Gardiner Museum's Artist Intervention series, renowned artist An Te Liu explores the space around things. Drawn at first to the burnished surfaces and anthropomorphic features of funerary ware found in the Gardiner's Ancient Americas collection, Liu has transformed discarded Styrofoam packing from consumer goods into ceramic sculptures that evoke a multiplicity of references. Using remnants of the contemporary world, Liu conjures forms recalling iconic works of both the ancient and modern periods. While each sculpture bears the imprint of an object in use today, the ambiguity of their origin invites reflection upon our relationship to things, both utilitarian and artistic, old and new. As such, the nineteen works of MONO NO MA stand like fossils of an evolving, unconscious present.
In Japanese, mono is a word for 'thing', while ma means 'space' or 'gap'. Brought together by the possessive term no, they describe a form that is at once plenitude and void. Literally translated as 'space of the thing', MONO NO MA oscillates between memory and loss, the familiar and the enigmatic, thing and no-thing.

Freedom New Mexico: Liliana Castillo Juanita Del Toro of Muleshoe has participated in the walk off and on since she was a teenager. "What I was thinking about while I was doing it was how hard it really is,†Del Toro said of her stint carrying a cross on her shoulder. "It feels good."
By Liliana Castillo: Freedom New Mexico
In front of a house west of Muleshoe, about two dozen people gathered in a circle around three hand-made wooden crosses. As the wind from passing 18-wheelers and cars whipped their hair and hats from their heads, their voices raised in prayer.
The home was the starting point of a Good Friday tradition in which Immaculate Conception Catholic Church members carry the wooden crosses on a four-mile trek though the town to the church in commemoration of Jesus' walk to Golgotha, where he was crucified.
As the walk wore on, the ranks swelled to 80 as church members transferred the wooden crosses from one pair of shoulders to another while followers recited the rosary and sang hymns.
A longtime church member, Isabel Gonzalez, 65, has carried the cross for 20 years. She said she had seen the precession creep through Muleshoe, but when she joined the walk, it was enlightening.
"When I did it, I felt like I was doing something for the Lord," Gonzalez said. "If there comes a year that I don't do it, I'll feel like something is missing."
Gonzalez said the church has held the walk for almost 40 years.
Another longtime church member and walker, Juan Chavez, said he believes that those who carry the cross take something significant from it.
"It heartens your belief," Chavez said. "And brings your spirit up. I believe the people that are here, feel like they have fallen. And Christ fell on his walk. Maybe that's why carrying the cross like him strengthens them."
For Luis Godinez, 12, imitating Jesus is what it's all about.
"It makes me feel what he did for me," said Godinez, who has carried the cross for three years now. "And if I know, than I am really thankful."
Several children walked hand-in-hand with their parents and recited the rosary. Juanita Del Toro, 39, said teaching the children the tradition is important.
"It give them a hands-on experience as far as what Jesus was doing for them," said Del Toro, as she kept pace with her sister. "It strengthens faith. It gives them more reason to believe in what Easter is all about."
The cross-bearing tradition began 36 years ago with the family of Muleshoe resident and parish member Clara Flores, according to church members.
"We did it for a lot of reasons," Flores told Freedom New Mexico in 2006. "For the sick, for the poor, for world peace, for our soldiers," she said.
Flores and her daughter made the trek alone in 1972. Word of their walk spread through the parish, and the next year, Flores said, three other families from the church joined them, carrying pocket-sized crosses or rosaries.
Three crosses were fashioned by a Lariat, Texas, carpenter at Flores' request in the pilgrimage's third year.
"Jesus carried one cross. But he was crucified next to two thieves, and he turned to them and welcomed them into his kingdom of heaven. That is why we carry three crosses," Flores said in 2006.
