While attending the 2013 Python programming language convention PyCon on March 17th, 2013, developer evangelist Adria Richards tweeted a photo of a group of developers seated behind her during a plenary session, stating that they had been making crude jokes about "forking" and "'big' dongles." She also sent a follow up tweet[1], citing PyCon's Code of Conduct[2] which states that "all communication should be appropriate for a professional audience" and "harassment and sexist, racist or exclusionary jokes are not appropriate."
Not cool.Jokes about forking repo's in a sexual way and "big" dongles.Right behind me #pycon twitter.com/adriarichards/…— Adria Richards (@adriarichards) March 17, 2013
Following her tweet, PyCon staff members contacted her via Twitter[3] asserting that they had dealt with the situation. The following day, Richards presented her account of the entire situation on her blog[4], explaining that she initially chose not to say anything to the men out of fear of "being heckled or [having my] experience denied," but later tweeted her complaints out of concern for future women developers.
Notable Developments
March 20th: PyCon Responds
On March 20th, PyCon issued an official statement about the situation on their blog[5], stating that both parties were addressed in private where they agreed and apologized. Contrary to initial reports, neither party was removed from the conference. The organizers also noted that they valued their attendee's privacy and later updated their Attendee Procedure for Incident Handling[6] to add that they do not condone public shaming in these incidents.
March 21st: Terminations
In the early morning on March 21st, CEO of Playhaven Andy Yang posted a statement about the incident to the company blog[9], announcing that the offending person had been fired from the company. By noon on the same day, SendGrid announced Richards' termination on Twitter[10] and Facebook[11], despite an early tweet from Richards (shown below) claiming that SendGrid supported her.
Hey mundanematt, it's clear from the last 24 hours you're a bully.sendgrid supports me.Stop trolling.— Adria Richards (@adriarichards) March 20, 2013
Online Reactions
As news about the incident spread across Twitter, #Donglegate[7] emerged as the hashtag for related discussions, which was used more than 1000 times on March 20th. On Reddit, nearly 100 unique threads[12] about the incident were submitted to different subreddits including /r/MensRights[13], /r/TumblrInAction[14], /r/geek[15] and /r/news.[16] There were also two popular posts in /r/Technology[17] that were removed by the moderators. On March 21st, a Redditor on /r/Geek[18] pointed out a tweet Richards made on March 14th[19] (shown below) making a joke about a friend stuffing socks into his crotch region in response to him getting a pat-down by TSA agents, intending to point out her hypocrisy. The post accrued more than 2100 upvotes, 1300 points overall and nearly 750 comments within 13 hours.
skwashd you should put something in your pants next time…like a bunch of socks inside one…large…sock.TSA agent faint— Adria Richards (adriarichards) March 14, 2013
News Media Coverage
The Daily Dot[21] was the first site to cover the incident on March 20th, followed by coverage on Techcrunch[22]. BetaBeat[23], New York Magazine[24], Businessweek[25], Mashable[26], Buzzfeed[27], VentureBeat[28], The Atlantic[30] and Ars Technica[31] the next day. It was also reported[29] that SendGrid suffered from DDoS attacks following the online backlash.
SendGrid's Statement
At 6:30 PM on March 21st, SendGrid CEO Jim Franklin issued a longer statement about Richards' termination via a blog post[20] wherein he explained that while the company supported her right to report the incident, they did not support the means by which she did it or the extreme responses that came from it. He also claimed her actions "strongly divided the same community she was supposed to unite" making her unable to effectively do her job, resulting in her termination.

Source, L.A. Times: "Japan's NHK television reported that at least three residents among 90 tested at random showed excess exposure to radiation. The people had apparently been exposed as they waited outside a school for evacuation by helicopter, the network said, citing local officials." There is also a photo of children getting tested for radiation floating around the ether.
NHK puts the information as such: "Fukushima Prefecture says 3 patients at a hospital near the damaged nuclear power plant have been exposed to radiation. … The 3 were chosen randomly for radiation testing from 90 patients and staff who were waiting for airlift by helicopter at a nearby high school on Saturday afternoon." It doesn't say they were workers. If they're "residents," that's a much bigger deal. If information is contradicting, fine, but the L.A. Times isn't the Springfield Shopper. Nor is Japan's NHK World. I'm not saying to panic. But let's figure out what's happening here.
EDIT: SavageMike points out this post. Now … it clearly isn't this bad. But the thing is, my earlier post suggests that out of random test of 90 people, they found three with radiation. If that's true, it contradicts the NYT's text.

Can't say I'm really comfortable that if Hudson comes back, they trade Vazquez. Hudson is no better than Vaz. if you ask me. Now, Hudson is a very good pitcher and I'd probably take him in a big game over Vaz. But, he's also a pretty streaky pitcher throughout the season. Call me a liar if you want…I watch the games.

I was really starting to worry. The AJC had gone about 4 days without a story on Smoltz. How obvious is it that DOB has his nose so far up Dear John's butt that it's sickening? If you love him so much, go get a job with the Boston Globe or something.
This is what happens when a beat writer moves from city to city – from Miami to Atlanta many years ago and STILL haven't realized that BRAVES fans are interested in CURRENT BRAVES players!

Did somebody actually say that Francy will only K 65 times in a full season? Really???
March 30th, 2009
6:23 pm
Had an interesting discussion today on Smoltz's future in comparison to Glavine's and Maddux's. I know a lot of you are tired of hearing about the Smoltz situation, but considering he only signed a one year deal with the Sox, does anyone think he'll (after all, he's always said he wants to retire in Atlanta) come back for a final year? I looked at the person who brought it up like he was crazy but I then got to thinking and it would make some kind of sense. After all, Glavine's career will probably end at 43, Maddux's career career ended when at 42–if all goes well for Smoltz this year, would he not be considered capable of completing at least one more season, this time in Atlanta white?
March 30th, 2009
6:24 pm
Just came back from work to see we beat the Red Sox (I really hate them) and traded Josh Anderson. Both good news then as I really wanted Schafer in centre and hopefully he will be now, he's an exciting player.

I see the wysteria and the pollen everywhere, but it just doesn't feel like spring…no Skip, no Pete, no Smoltz…sigh
March 30th, 2009
6:32 pm
N8, thanks for pointing that out, it's the 8th spot, not 9th. I was in a hurry.
Well we agree that Schafer should eventually bat leadoff, but I don't agree about hitting in the 8th spot. The lower the spot, the worse the hitter, that's the way it works, or at least the way it is perceived. There's a reason why Chipper wants to hit 3rd, not 8th.
Jeff321, well to say you've never been an Acosta fan would be an understatement, but you could be right about Acosta and a change of scenery.Trading him away may be the only way some here regain their spark for Acosta, a la Joey Devine.
We'll trade him away. He'll do well and suddenly it'll be "how could Wren trade this guy, we never develop any pitchers!"
I still wonder if he's hurting. There was nothing wrong with until Bobby ran him into the ground and in June he gave out. I'm wondering if he hasn't been reinjured. I wouldn't be surprised to see him start on the DL.

I'd rather not bring Smoltz back. No reason to get sentimental. Wren's trying to go in a different direction, hence why he was offered "only" $2 million base. Plus, with Hudson returning, we'll likely have more arms than we'll know what to do with (which might include Rohrbough and Locke….I can't wait for those guys). Why add an aging 43 year old question mark to the mix?
March 30th, 2009
6:34 pm
Yo Brian, what Hudson would you be referring to? Because I'm certain that you're not talking about Tim Hudson.
You know, the guy with the .655 winning percentage (better than Maddux, Glavine or Smoltz). The ACE pitcher with a career record of 146-77. The pitcher who has cracked the 15 win barrier five times.
Pray tell me Brian, What Hudson could you possibly be talking about ?

That was me who yelled to you when you came out of the dugout!
March 30th, 2009
6:50 pm
Smyrna Jim – Sorry, didn't thouroughtly read thru all 8 pages of replies and see that. OK, so maybe not DOB, but SOMEBODY at the AJC is certainly guilty of brown nosing Smoltz to the Nth degree. Those pictures and stories amy be written by the wire services, but an AJC employee had to load them. Although with more and more layoffs happening, the AJC will be nothing more than a wire service paper in the near future. That would actually bring them full circle. They never traveled a beat writer at all back in the 70's!

Hakuna,, there will be absolutely, positively no room for Smoltz in this rotation next year. The Braves will have 7 guys, all of whom they legitimately want in the rotation: Lowe, Hudson, Jurrjens, Vazquez, Kawakami, Hanson, Reyes.
The ONLY way Smoltz could return would be if he returned here as a reliever. That could happen, but only if Smoltz gets to a point where he feels his arm won't hold up to starting, but will hold up to bullpen duty. In that case, he could return here as kind of a setup man/secondary closer. He would get some save opps and would pitch in a lot of game-on-the-line situations.
Personally, I would love to have him back in that situation. I'm disgusted with his decision and the way he's handled it… but personally, I'm usually willing to forgive and forget, as most of us did with Glavine.
Not likely though. Smoltz wants to be a starter. If he can't start, he wants to close. But if his health/age is enough of an issue that no one wants to bank on him in either role, he could conceivably wind up back here for one more season as a late-inning reliever.

kirkinga – I could have been an Acosta groupie if he only did his job 80% of the time. I just have no patience for relievers that are prone to giving it up.
It brings me great pain to watch a game only to see it squandered in the 7th or 8th by the usual suspects. Of course that's a huge reason I dislike Bobby Cox. Because rather than using the best available guys for crucial spots, he chooses to keep trotting the same one's out that aren't getting the job done.
March 30th, 2009
7:05 pm
Old School – I'm afraid that may be the future for a lot of papers. I do tend to ignore wire service stories on most websites. What drives me craziest with the AJC is wire service movie reviews (outside of Roger Ebert). A review is totally worthless if you don't know where the reviewer is coming from. Also, I certainly didn't expect you to read all eight pages – that's why I pointed you there, since I've had a really thrilling day (waiting to head out and tutor) where refreshing this page has been my big excitement.

Just heard we traded Josh Anderson for Clarence Darrow. That dude's gotta be pretty old now, doesn't he? There goes Lew's suggestion for the gallows at home plate.
McFann, I posted an attempted funny line yesterday morning about you being the new IT person on the blog but maybe I shouldn't have joked so much. How in the world do you link to a post from a previous blog, and where do you find out how to do the strike thrus, italics and stuff?
March 30th, 2009
7:11 pm
KC, I really believe that barring major injury, Smoltz will pitch 2 or 3 more years, probably as a starter. He had killer stuff last year, and probably will this year once he gets healthy. I don't see him with the Braves during that time, though.
March 30th, 2009
7:12 pm
Smyrna Jim – Thanks bud and trust me – been there, done that with several thrilling days gone by!
To be honest, I virtually never read movie reviews of any kind since the ones I usually really enjoy aren't critically renowned. I point out the greatest golf movie ever, Caddyshack, that was totally crucified when it came out in every review. I'd rather watch something I enjoy than something somebody else did. Kind of like the Braves – if I want to go to the ballpark, sometimes I'll go see them play the Nationals instead of the Phillies because I'd rather see them win than play a better team! Good luck with the tutoring!
March 30th, 2009
7:15 pm
catching up…
Steve-OH, gotcha, re Gonzo early. I fear it's Bobby's favorite LOOGY in that sit, however, LOL. Even relievers have gotten into the whole "role" thing, knowing what situations they are gonna face, etc. I don't know; I don't like that strategic philosophy all that much, but I see its appeal.
nolie, re KC and Shanks: previously alluded to and rebutted. Shanks will curb-kick a veteran in a heartbeat, it's just prospects who are all-world to him, LOL.
mbatl, I can remember a lot, but recalling where a kid hit in a minor league game two years ago might occasionally get away from me, LOL. I guess what I was getting at there is that Schafer didn't stick in my mind as a "leadoff" guy, i.e., that's the position I would expect to always find him. Certainly, he has the tools to hit there. What did McCann say, the kid was "all tooled up"? Good descrip. If the kid doesn't get overwhelmed by LHP, and grows into his power with his man-weight, yikes. A middle of Schafer-Heyward-Freeman might be a little bit good.
March 30th, 2009
7:19 pm
Old School – if I know the viewpoint of the reviewer well enough, I can tell from his review whether or not I'll like it, regardless of what his opinion is. Someone like Stephen Hunter in the Washington Post (well, only occasionally now since he took the buyout) is a great writer, and his reviews are worth reading even if I know I'd never consider seeing the movie. Plus, I know where his and my likes and dislikes converge or diverge.
March 30th, 2009
7:22 pm
I too had thought Smoltz would come back for a year of Atl adulation in a farewell tour. BUT, what would you do with him? Looking at projected pitching staff, I don't think he could crack it next year at 43, IMO.
March 30th, 2009
7:23 pm
Cox won't use Jordan Schafer as his only lead off hitter. We will see KJ and Escobar batting first as Cox loves to tinker with the lineup. Atlanta stole 58 bags last year, I don't see the 2009 version as being any faster.
March 30th, 2009
7:24 pm
Original Jon-I don't remember whether or not you were posting a couple years ago, but with the rash of TJ surgeries the Braves' had at the time, we discussed the surgery and the healing from thereof ad nauseum.
The common consensus at the time (and I have no reason to think it has changed) was that for a starting pitcher, complete recovery usually came at a year and a half after the surgery. In August, Huddy will only be a year out. Gonzo, a reliever, was the exception as opposed to the rule coming back as quickly as he did-Moylan, too (if indeed he does come back with no setbacks-and it would not surprise me if he DID have a setback or two).
Now I realize that reports put Tim a head of schedule (and he well may be ahead of schedule) in his recovery. However, it may well take until 2010 until he is back to the form of the Hudson we all know. With the abundance of pitching, there is absolutely no need to rush him in his rehab. No reason at all. As for what he is being paid (and that whole point of view got real old with the Hampton situation-it's all part of the game)-we will be getting the insurance payment on his contract, so we won't out of pocket anywhere near as much as you might think we are.
Like I said-let the Dude heal. We'll be glad we did in the long run. We have numerous other options in the meantime.

Thoughts on an opening day lineup?:
1) Schafer cf – FINALLY a player who should bring credibility and speed to the #1 slot
2) Escobar ss – Bc other than Prado and GA, no other player is better suited for the 2-slot
3) CJones 3b – Chipper needs to be Chipper and to do that he needs to be comfortable and hit 3rd
4) McCann c – Mac is our .300/30 threat..where else should he hit?
5) Anderson lf – always a solid run producer so the 5 hole will suit him well if teams try to pitch around Chipper and Mac
6) KJohnson 2b – Still have no idea where he fits here (and think Prado is an overall better player), but that being said he hit very well here last couple seasons and maybe if he gets more aggressive he can find a permanent home in this slot in the order and be a RBI guy
7) Francoeur rf – Placing Frenchy here just so he can get some confidence back and maybe he'll move up a slot or two sometime in May or June…still needs to fix his step timing(too the pitcher instead of to 3b dugout)
Kotchman 1b – A great slot for Casey is either here, 7th, or 2nd…a good LD hitter and also hits breaking balls well which he will see a lot of batting in front of the pitcher.
What are everyone else's thoughts on a lineup? I honestly think we would be lucky to play .500 ball w/ the lineup that was out there today with Kelly leading off…once again, KJ NOT a leadoff hitter…I hope Bobby eventually gets it right.

Hey…all I got to say is
March 30th, 2009
7:31 pm
Everybody here seems to think that the number eight guys in any list are cool. They ain't that cool, folks.
March 30th, 2009
7:32 pm
You can't be downplaying the sheer and utter speed of our backstop can you??? Dude was 5/5 last year!
Actually, I suspect we will be a tad bit faster (more stolen bases), but not enough to matter much.
I have always liked having speed at the top of the lineup, but I would rather have good hitters there, instead. Blanco and Anderson both had their downsides. IF the Schafer kid is the real deal, then I eventually see him giving us some AB's in the leadoff spot, and maybe progressing to a middle of the lineup slot, if indeed he ends up being the type hitter some envision him as.
Basically, we only really have a couple of slow guys, who might clog up the bases a bit. BUT, I like our lineup's potential, especially if some of the guys take the next step upward (Escobar, KJ, Kotchman, Francoeur and Schafer).
Lots of guys in the mix who could hit 275-300 with 15-25 HR's and a fair amount of doubles.
It's gonna be an interesting year, for sure.
March 30th, 2009
7:33 pm
The good thing is 2 of our lefties crush lefties (McCann and KJ) MM
they hit lefties well but they don't really "crush" LHers. McCann is down 20-40 points across the board,Johnson's BA is up but his power is down 30 points(actually his isolated power probably more that that). On the plus side Kotchman is the closest to actually hitting LHers as well as he hits RHers.
March 30th, 2009
7:33 pm
Hey guys. Just thought I'd let you know I'm still not coming back.
March 30th, 2009
7:35 pm
mbatl, well I don't question his stuff as much as his durability. It may be difficult for him to start for 2-3 more years. Of course, if he can jump in at the All-star break every year, that would certainly make it more likely that he'll be able to still a couple more years as a starter. We'll see.
I agree that it's very unlikely that he'll be back. Just throwing out the one and only scenario under which I see the slightest possibility of that happening.
March 30th, 2009
7:37 pm
Here's my dream list, eventually:
CF Schafer
SS Escobar
3B Jones
RF Francoeur (a guy can wish, huh)
C McCann
LF Diaz/Anderson
1B Kotchman
You can almost substitute most of those guys from 4th thru 8th. Gonna be a strong lineup, IMHO.
And BTW, no way is Prado near the player that KJ is…
March 30th, 2009
7:38 pm
March 30th, 2009
7:39 pm
If Johnson leads off and goes up thinking like a "leadoff" hitter, then I agree: not suited. If he goes up thinking like Kelly Johnson at any other lineup position, he'll be fine.
I've long thought that perhaps his strike-zone judgment was too good, and he would wait for perfect pitches…too long, sometimes, putting himself in pitchers' counts too often. But, I thought he started coming around to the idea of being more aggressive in the zone last year, and I think he found he liked it. If he'll approach leadoff the same way, I think he'll do well there. A double is better than a SB, anyway, LOL. No offense, Coach!
March 30th, 2009
7:39 pm
I saw a lot of people fightin over my name. I think its great the more schafer's wafers we get the better. I think it is great the Braves are giving the kid a chance to showcase his talents. Boy is he talented. I think he should leadoff. He has speed and he will get on a lot. K's a little to much but that can be fixed with better pitch selection.
March 30th, 2009
7:39 pm
Ohman's reportedly agreed to terms (finally!) with the Dodgers. Geez, glad that's over with.
March 30th, 2009
7:42 pm
I'm extremely confused by this trade, but congratulations to Schafer and good luck to Josh.
But is anyone else having trouble figuring out Detroit's point of view in this trade? Their pen is the weakest part of the team, especially with Zumaya still not back. And last time I checked they were trying to get rid of their surplus of OF, not add. I honestly expected any trade to happen with the White Sox, but whatever, we got someone.
(Just want to mention a more useful trade for the Braves I was thinking of. We could have gotten Bobby Jenks for Anderson, a RP and a prospect. Just speculation from me)
March 30th, 2009
7:42 pm
P-Town Brave, I agree that Escobar is a good #2 hitter. BUT… I hope BC doesn't put the breaks on Schafer too much when he gets on and let's him steal. That would help cut down on Escobar's hitting into double-plays. He did hit into a lot of them last year. That's the only fly in the ointment where Escobar in the two slot is concerned.
March 30th, 2009
7:43 pm
P-town Brave, just for reference. The career BA for the following players:
Kelly Johnson .273
Yunel Escobar .303
Chipper Jones .310
Brian McCann .297
Casey Kotchman .269
Jeff Francoeur .268
Garret Anderson .296
Matt Diaz .309
To say this team can hit is an understatement. They are dependent on being able to string three and four hits together in order to score. The offense isn't bad but it might be a bit short on power and base running ability. Which is why the pitching and defense is needed to make our Braves a winner in 2009. But, how much will they win?
Most projections put Atlanta around 85 wins.
March 30th, 2009
7:45 pm
Oh, Wayne, you cann also add onions to that recipe if you want to.
March 30th, 2009
7:49 pm
Lew, I gotta believe the Braves and Hudson would be eager to get him back out there this year. With his option year in '10 @, I believe $12Million, which, given the economy, I would expect will be a huge figure in '10 even if he does come back and pitch well this year. If he doesn't pitch could you see the Braves or anyone being interested at or near that figure? I can't see him wanting to accept the $1mil buyout and having to hit the FA market in a down economy. I think Hudson's stuff is as good as anybody's and we did see a few big contracts this year but they weren't for guys coming off TJ surgery.
March 30th, 2009
7:51 pm
here is a good article from yahoo sports on Schafer and his drive to succeed. good read…
March 30th, 2009
7:59 pm
So, when the Dodgers come to Atlanta, do we boo Ohman because he turned us down, or cheer him because he's a good guy?
March 30th, 2009
7:59 pm
f.n.hale-Don't get me wrong-if he's able to go (even on a limited basis), then so be it. All I'm saying is that there's no rush as he won't really be needed since we have Reyes, Hanson and Morton mright across town and Campillo, Bennett or Carlyle to spot start if we need them. Hudson will be fine in 2010 and we will take his option. Worst case scenario-in 2010, we trade a pitcher for a Home Run hitter (I'm betting Vasquez if it comes to that).
March 30th, 2009
8:01 pm
Jeff321, he did have a success rate that was near 80%, so what's the problem?
Check out his Game Log from last season. He reall only had about about 5-6 horrible..and memorable..games.
At any case, why can't his struggles now be the result of injury instead of ineptness? Seems to me he rocked last season until his injury.
March 30th, 2009
8:02 pm
Schafer will steal 30+ bags this year
Kid is super quick on those bases
March 30th, 2009
8:03 pm
GEEEZ…I go out and cut some grass, come back on the blog and see I've been getting hammered here!
Spotts, I like how you spun my comment to suit your point of view! I'm joking!! Seriously, at least I said I'd take Hudson over Vazquez in a big game, right?
Coach, good point and if a person judged your comment to mine, they'd say I'm an ignorant BAS–! Well, I am from TN, but that's another story. Anyways, Hudson's line can be a little deceiving because he can be pretty streaky, people. He's obviously got good run support and great D to put up those #'s. Not saying he's not an All-Star pitcher, but stats can sometimes be deceiving.
March 30th, 2009
8:04 pm
Here is a really out of the box idea
What if Vazquez is lights out….. any chance they do a SMoltz with Huddo ??
March 30th, 2009
8:07 pm
Lew, I agree we, hopefully won't need him but I gotta believe he'll do whatever he can to get back. I hope you're right about picking up his option too. Heck it ain't my money and when he is hitting his spots I don't think there's a better pitcher in baseball.
March 30th, 2009
8:11 pm
For the record, I love Huddy and hope we have him around for a long time. I'll admit, he was very consistant in '07 and almost as much the time he pitched in '08. Before that? Yeah, a little streaky from what I remember. A future rotation of Lowe/Hanson/Hudson/Vazquez/Kawakami…are you kiddin?? Awesome, even if there isn't a lefty to be found there.
March 30th, 2009
8:15 pm
kirkinga If Acosta is at 80% I need to up my standards to 90%! Btw, he could be injured but I doubt he's tired from pitching 8 innings in ST.
Yeah, he got that injury at an unfortunate time if I recall correctly. Who knows, maybe he'll make the team and can prove me wrong. Believe it or not, I want all the Braves bullpen guys to succeed since they hold the key to my jubilation when we win.
March 30th, 2009

LEW LEW LEW!! "Vasquez"?? I just puked in my mouth when I read that! Oh bless you Vermont heart! You're gonna get bashed in these parts for such mistakes. I kid, I kid

8:28 pm
Is Schafer as quick as Reyass…….muts SS?
March 30th, 2009
8:28 pm
Jeff321, It's probably closer to 70%, but that's because of June when we know he became was injured at some point and also because we had starters who couldn't make it deep into games.
In his first 28 appearances covering from Opening Day until the first week of June, Acosta gave up runs only 4 times. Now I call that being effective. He made 8 appearances after June and gave up no runs in any of them.
I'm the first to admit he's had a shaky ST, but he had one bad month last season. The rest of the time he was pretty good.
I guess I just don't see any reason why one bad month should forever doom any pitcher, especially one of our least experienced ones.
March 30th, 2009
8:30 pm
I forgot to mention the 40 man situation.
With the trade of Josh Anderson there are two open roster spots. Schafer will be added but what are the Braves going to do with the other spot?
Atlanta is sixth in the pecking order when it comes to waiver claims.
March 30th, 2009
8:32 pm
Gotta love that we went from a patchwork rotation to having so many quality starters that we forget who they all are…
March 30th, 2009

Schafer's not THAT fast, doc holliday.
But he's pretty fast.
March 30th, 2009
8:34 pm
Coach, there are actually three open roster spots at the moment. Phil Stockman and Jeff Ridgway were taken off the roster in the last week or so, plus Anderson's trade, so the roster stands at 37.
March 30th, 2009
8:35 pm
Anybody read this little tidbit from espn today, an NL talent evaluator on Buster Olney's Blog?
"No. 3: The Marlins' every day lineup is very suspect to me. They've got the best starting rotation in the division, but Hanley Ramirez is now a third baseman playing shortstop. He's getting too big for that team.
mainly the best rotation statement…..bold to say the least

dogsbrekky, the Satan remark was a joke that didn't play. My bad. (You'd said we would villainize (sp??) you for liking Prado over KJ.
March 30th, 2009
8:51 pm
f.n.hale, OWWW…that hurt! How did I leave my boy JJ off?? Let me tell you what I think the future holds:
Vazquez will be dealt this offseason for whatever the need will be at that time. Damn if I'm guessing what that need will be, but if Hudson is resigned, Vazquez will be traded and probably packaged with Gorkys and another if he(Gorkys) isn't dealt this summer. My guess, since Heyward/Schafer/Franc. make up the OF, will be a 2nd baseman(Brandon P.) or a big time BP arm. Just havin a little fun here, that's all.

TnBriuan-I sure hope you've got some mouthwash. WTF is so outrageous about what I said? You think they won't pick up Hudson's option or that if push came to shove that Huddy wouldn't be higher in the pecking order than Javy Vasquez? If so then you're a sadly delusional individual. Can't quite figure out why you seriously think Vasquez is the better of the two. I've always been a Vasquez fan and advocated for his acquisition way before they traded for him this off season, but Dude. Please get real.
March 30th, 2009
9:01 pm
re Schafer vs Reyes
Schafer is uber quick because he reads things so well and runs the bases very well
Over 40 straight yards I would take Josie and the chokercats but every day our kid can fly on the basepaths..
A friend who is a scout has clocked him down 1st base as top 3 in MLB FWIW
March 30th, 2009
9:03 pm
Lew – I think Huddo has been the main victim of our 36% record in 1 run games over the last 3 years……. I cannot recall the nos of blown saves in his starts but it is high
March 30th, 2009
9:07 pm
Hey, Bub, I don't think that's what they mean by "down under"
TnBrian, of course Bobby makes them all sound like the next Koufax, but I get the feeling he REALLY likes Medlen.

9:08 pm
Has Glavine been added to 40-man?
FW deserves a lot of credit – or he reads this blog site regularly. It seems that the 25-man roster and opening day lineup will be just as vetted and prescribed on these pages. Bright minds think alike, methinks.
One of the great things about the lineup is that there don't seem to be any weak spots. (Knock on wood.) This, of course, assumes that Frenchy's rebirth is real and that "Ice Cold" will hit at least .280 and steal 25 bases. (Whoever offered the "Ice Cold" nickname someplace above is my hero.)
Let's play two.

mbatl, do we boo or cheer Ohman?
If you have a guy that's part of the fabric of an organization, and he walks away despite having received a fair offer to stay… it's perfectly understandable for fans to jeer him.
When it's a guy like Ohman, I'll neither cheer nor jeer.

March 30th, 2009
9:10 pm
Dogsbrekky-Yeah, Dude was victimized by Wickman a couple times I rememeber. I hope they DO pick up his option as I think with him in the rotation we've got one of the best in the league-even better than with Vasquez.
TnBrian-The reason I say they would probably put Vasquez up for trade is that he makes $12 mil next year and they probably won't be able to afford both Hudson and Vasquez. Hudson, coming off of surgery-even if he DOES pitch this year- will not command in a trade what Javy would (especially if he has a good season). I really can't see them letting Hudson walk, though anything is possible-especially in this economy.

It has been almost two months since the report was filed and the Judge has not signed it. Is there anything that can be done to request a status from the court?
I practice in Orlando. Sometimes things simply get lost in the system. I would call the JA's office and see what the status is of the order, etc. You cannot follow up on these things enough. Good luck!
Bill Rosenfelt 407-462-8787
Set a status conference.
First, I would suggest that you check the online docket for your case. If the docket does not show the order, I would contact the magistrate's office to confirm that the report and recommendation was forwarded to the judge's chambers. If the report and recommendation has been forwarded and it is more than 30 days with no signed order, I suggest that you contact the judge's office to follow up. If another 15 days goes by without a signed order, then follow the suggestion of setting a status (or case management) conference.

Thursday evening the World Leaders Forum hosted US Attorney General Eric Holder, who defended the Department of Justice's policies on the financial industry, affirmed affirmative action, and gave attendees the opportunity to compare his impressive mustache to PrezBo's hair. Government Guru Brit Byrd reports:
As PrezBo's introductory comments waxed even more glistening than his own silvery mane, it became clear that Thursday's World Leaders Forum event was going to be a bit different. The speaker of the hour, US Attorney General Eric Holder (CC '73, Law '76) was clearly at ease at his alma mater, and he gave what amounted to a stump speech on the Department of Justice's (DoJ) efforts against financial crime. The speech was confident, delivered via teleprompter, and rather boring in comparison to the chummy Q&A with PrezBo that followed.
Referring to the Attorney General by his first name, PrezBo began by asking the most sensible follow-up to the speech's talking points: what about the widespread perception that most, if not all, of the perpetrators of the financial crisis have been unpunished? Holder responded by saying he does not know why the DoJ's efforts "have not set in to the American conscience." Reregulation, he reiterated, is a step in the right direction, citing the frustrating reality that some of the most abusive practices that led to the crisis were not, in fact, illegal. As he would go on to repeat, sometimes "morally reprehensible" is not synonymous with "criminal."

ALBANY -- Although it burned for about five hours, a fire Thursday left a Veolia Environmental Services trash-transfer building structurally intact, a company official said.
There were no injuries reported from the fire at the 1515 Pecan Lane address.
"It looked a lot worse than it really was," said Darlene McLaughlin, company general manager. "The beams and roof are structurally good. The walls might need sandblasting and paint. We are open and working and picking up on schedule."
A trash transfer building is an open space covered by a roof supported by walls covered in light metal where trucks dump their loads before the trash gets taken to a landfill, said Albany Fire Department Chief James Carswell.
While firefighters contained the blaze within the two-story building, the fire presented a unique problem, Carswell said.
"The fire was in an empty space in what is really a warehouse. The trash was piled about 14 feet high in some places," Carswell said. "To get the fire out we had to have some of their employees use front loaders to take the trash and spread it out so we could put water on it."
The actions of the fire department and its employees brought high praise from McLaughlin.
"The Albany Fire Department was great. They are one of the best I have ever seen," McLaughlin said. "I'm also very proud of our employees."
The fire started when a truck delivering trash dumped some smoldering material at the center, Carswell said. Once the smoldering material hit the air it started burning, he added.
Firefighters returned Friday to hit any hot spot problem areas that may have cropped up.
It is a problem that crops up, McLaughlin said. Sometimes the fire flares up in a truck when one is on the road.
"At least it didn't happen on the road," McLaughlin said. "Sometimes people throw the ashes from fireplaces in the trash."

ParaNorman and the War on Women
I'm not feeling particularly eloquent at this moment but I want to bang this out before I forget or lose all interest.
I saw ParaNorman a couple days ago. I would have been content to merely gaze at Norman's precious little plasticine, ruddy nose for 90 minutes, but the movie turned out to be surprisingly moving. The zombie-wrought mayhem in the middle was kind of a mess, but the third act, which riffed on the witch hunts of New England, was riveting and poignant.
There are certain rules to children's movies older viewers come to expect. The plot will deal with the common concerns of children, including the desire to fit in and the fear of abandonment. Probably no one will die even when the characters are in peril, especially not the children. Furthermore, the characters are only allowed to speak in euphemisms around violence. They will not say "they murdered you," they will substitute "they did something really bad to you."
This is what happens around the harms visited on women on a daily basis, isn't it? The movie addressed the unjust cruelty of punishing someone for being different and misunderstood, but obviously the film did not address the wider, extreme misogyny and intolerance which spurred and perpetuated the witch hunts. It's estimated that 9 million people died persecuted for witchcraft, the vast majority of them women (see Andrea Dworkin's "Woman-Hating," page 90). But we never really hear about this do we? It's always downplayed and minimized.

Dominican University of California women's softball team will Swing for a Cause on April 15
SAN RAFAEL, CA - The Dominican University of California women's softball team will Swing for a Cause on Sunday, April 15, during a noon doubleheader at Academy of Art University.
While the two teams will face off on the field, they also will be teaming up to support local causes.
Dominican and Art U will wear special jerseys that will be sold in a silent auction during the doubleheader.
Donations and proceeds from Dominican's jerseys will support the
spinal injury work of Kentfield Rehabilitation and Specialty Center
while proceeds from Art U's jerseys will support the Amber Craig
Memorial Foundation that helps others prevent suicide through
Senior Kellie Hislop's family, including her aunt Sue Arrouze, have been fixtures in the stands for the past four seasons cheering on Hislop and the Lady Penguins.
In November, Arrouze, a firefighter captain for CAL FIRE,
suffered a spinal cord injury on the job. Yet she has still come to
as many games as possible to support the team. Therefore it was a
no-brainer for Head Coach Roni
Sparrey's team to choose a cause that supports those who have
sustained spinal cord injuries in the line of duty.
Donations to the Kentfield Rehabilitation and Speciality Hospital will go directly toward the purchase of a LifeGait, a walking device that simultaneously controls a person's body weight, posture and balance over a treadmill or in open spaces.
The LifeGait will assist spinal cord patients to achieve a
standing position while providing a safe environment for them to
begin standing and walking training with their therapists.
"It's important for families to know that your loved one is receiving the best possible care during their recovery," Hislop said. "This machine will go a long way in helping people in the recovery process."
Learn more about the extraordinary work of the Kentfield Rehabilitation and Specialty Center at kentfieldrehab.com and the Amber Craig Memorial Foundation at www.withhopefoundation.org.
The doubleheader will be played at Mission Blue Field in Brisbane. First pitch is at noon.

Thank you all for your patient advice and wisdom. I think that you all hit the nail on the head in saying that my thing is more attention-seeking behavior than sexual orientation per se. I apologize for using the term male-lesbian, I can totally see how that is weird and offensive. To be frank, I got it from Eddie Izzard because he's kinda the closest model for how I thought I was feeling, although I do not dress in women's clothing. He's not really a close model at all now that I think about it, I guess it's just all I had to go on at the moment.posted by jessamyn at 11:50 AM on May 19, 2012
And I think the US socialization factors mentioned are also huge. I'm gonna follow up with some counseling on this particular issue. Thanks again.

I like this horn the most of the Getzen line. It is definitely a high quality instrument considering the price point. One of my pet-peeves with Getzen instruments is the silly design of the water key. It is a push-button style key that sticks open on a regular basis. This is a flaw that I have noticed with multiple instruments. There have also been cases where the whole mechanism has come unsoldered leaving a hole in the tuning slide. The horn itself, like the product overview says, is very free-blowing. In my opinion it is a bit too free-blowing and can get easily distorted at high volume. The finish is decent but lacks a good luster. If this horn is at the top end of your price-range, get it. If you can spend a bit more, look at the Bach or Schilke lines.

Upper East Side
Upper East, from 57th Street to 110th Street, from the East River to Fifth Avenue, with Sutton Place and Carnegie Hill as separate enclaves.
The Upper East Side historically exemplifies serious landmark-type apartments but remains a neighborhood where there's a co-op or condo for everyone. Strict co-ops (some with o'-say-can-you-see Central Park views) continue to prevail in the Upper East Side from Park to Fifth Avenues, but there are plenty of studios, one- and two-bedroom condos, and rentals on the Upper East Side as well. Luxury new condo buildings include the Laurel, with a world-class gym that would satisfy any triathlete, the Lucida, and the Brompton.

text: For the first time for a few years I have gone to buy a simple usb stick. Bought one off-the-shelf at Currys and entered a world off sticky cheap plastic catches, heads that disappear back into the body, searching for drivers listed on packing in font size 2 (or so it seems) and now lack of faith in the 'required support software' Why has it got so messy Sandisk? The last one I bought from you simply had to be plugged in and forgotten. Grumble. So can anyone advise on a usb stick easily available online that just needs to be plugged in (Windows XP Pro) with no software that will try to copy itself onto my work (networked) PC? No cover, no catches, no support software and no secure file protection. Just plug and use. My old Sandisk Mini did the job perfectly but my PC won't even look at the new ones and from reading some reviews lots of people have the same problem. Help, advice or just a word of comfort welcome. This should not be so difficult! Thanks

Subjects taught at LSE | Services and divisions (administration)
All research groups | Research subject areas
Danny Quah is Professor of Economics and International Development, and Kuwait Professor at LSE; Senior Fellow, LSE IDEAS, Chair of the LSE-PKU Summer School Board, Academic Director of LSE's Executive Summer School, Director of Public Relations for the Economics Department, and Co-Director of LSE's Kuwait Research Programme. Quah served on Malaysia's National Economic Advisory Council 2009-2011; he was the first Head of Department for Economics at LSE 2006-2009.
Quah holds degrees from Princeton and Harvard, and was Assistant Professor of Economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology before joining LSE. In 2010 he was Visiting Professor at the School of Economics and Management, Tsinghua University; and in 2011 at Singapore's Nanyang Technological University. Since 2010 Quah has been Tan Chin Tuan Visiting Professor in the Economics Department at the National University of Singapore.
In December 2012 in Beijing, Quah was given Hanban's Confucius Institute Individual Performance Excellence Award for "promoting greater understanding on China's place in the world, by insightfully analyzing and effectively communicating to general audiences worldwide the effects of shifts in the global economy and of the rise of the east".
In March 2012, Quah gave a TEDx talk on "Global Tensions from a Rising East". In October 2011, he gave the Confucius Institute for Business London Annual Public Lecture "627 Million Chinese Lifted Out of Poverty - Where Did It All Go Wrong?" and, at Peking University, the lecture "China and the Global Public Good" for the Carnegie-Tsinghua Center for Global Policy. In June 2011, he delivered the inaugural LSE Big Questions Lecture "East beats West?". In April 2011, Quah gave the Eighth SER Distinguished Public Lecture on "The Shifting Global Balance of Power" in Singapore; in January 2011, he delivered a lecture on the tensions of international power restructuring in a shifting global economy, as part of the Ralph Miliband Series at LSE on the Restructuring of World Power.
Quah was chair and panellist on Sustaining Asia's Competitiveness at the Tianjin 2010 World Economic Forum Summer Davos Annual Meeting of the New Champions. Early in 2009 he delivered the Goh Keng Swee Lecture in Singapore on China's economic growth, and the World Economy Asia lecture ("Will Asia save the world?") in Kuala Lumpur. In May 2009, together with Lord Charles Powell and Sir David Tang, he opposed Gurcharan Das, Deepak Lal, and Mark Tully, in debating the motion "The future belongs to India, not China" at the Royal Geographical Society in London.
Prof Quah's research is now on the global economy, economic growth and development, income inequality, and international economic relations. He is investigating in particular the eastwards drift of global economic activity, and the implications of such ongoing shift: he tries to make large things visible to the naked eye. He has also worked in time series econometrics, inflation, and business cycles. Some of Quah's writings have been translated into 18 languages.
At the LSE he used to lecture in the largest course (Introductory Economics) taught in the School. Quah now teaches macroeconomics and econometrics in LSE's MSc programme, and Introductory Macroeconomics as well as Economics and Public Policy for LSE's BSc programme. He lectures on The Global Financial Crisis for LSE100, and on The Global Economy for the LSE-PKU Summer School in Beijing and for LSE's MSc in International Strategy and Diplomacy.

Colton Dixon - Never Gone Lyrics

We lay blame like we know what's best
It's a shame.
We break when we fall too hard
Lose faith when we're torn apart
Don't say you're too far gone
It's a shame
It's a shame
There's space between our lives
Hard to face, but I know we try
To revive, bring it back to life
Don't walk away
Don't walk away
I'm still standing here
No I didn't disappear
Now the lights are on
See I was never gone
I let go of your hand
To help you understand
With you all along
Yeah, I was never gone
I never ever left you
Never ever left you, no

The Open School for Arabic & Islamic Studies
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
In the early 1990ĺs, the fruits of a meeting of scholars heralded the Open School for Arabic and Islamic studies (OSAIS). It recognised that a new generation of Muslims had particular educational and spiritual needs, while all the more being active in UK life, including pursuing Higher Education. The concern amongst prominent UK based scholars was how to best disseminate Islamic knowledge to this generation, for many whom English was a second language.
In keeping with the methods of our virtuous predecessors, the School adopts an analogous scheme in both its teaching material and ethos, whilst utilising the current burgeoning telecommunications, and recognising the time challenges faced by many wishing to seek knowledge.

I can't believe more people haven't come across this recipe! It is outstanding! Instead of whole tomatoes I used one can of petite diced tomatoes including the juice. Also, we didn't want potatoes so I sauteed some spinach and tossed with some spaghetti. Excellent meal.

very easy to make if only you follow the steps, first i had to brown it by piercing it with meat tongs or fork to bring out the juice frm the beef. Thereafter, poured the tomato mixture over d beef and topped it with one bay leaf. very delicious with nice aroma served it with mashed potatoes, Excellent.. will make it over and over again

I thought it was just ok. I cooked in a crock pot, so some of the meat was not submerged. I think that took away from the fall-apart factor of the meat.. The sauce needed some thickening. I served over egg noodles for my husband, and the sauce was too runny to work well. If I were to make again, I would add some flour or cornstarch, choose a smaller pot, and possibly splash a dash of Worcestershire. The bay leaf from the other reader sounds like a good idea too. Except next time, I think I'll just try something new.

Ariel Sharon Undergoes Brain Scan In Israel
Doctors consider options for the former Israeli Prime Minister who has been in an induced coma since suffering a stroke.
Critical: Mr Sharon has been in an induced coma since his stroke in 2006
Former Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has undergone a brain scan to see whether his condition can be improved since he suffered a stroke which left him in an induced coma.
Mr Sharon had the scan at Soroka Hospital in Beersheba, southern Israel, a spokesman for the hospital said.
He was later returned to Tel Hashomer hospital in central Israel.
Mr Sharon, 84, led Israel from 2001 until his stroke in 2006 when he was replaced by Ehud Olmert. Since then he has been connected to a respirator and has undergone an operation to address bleeding in his brain.
In 2005 Mr Sharon was voted the 8th greatest Israeli of all time, in a poll by the Israeli news website Ynet.

Eddie Lacy was born in Gretna, La., which lies across the Mississippi River, from uptown New Orleans, the city in which Lacy grew up. New Orleans is also one of the main cities affected by the unforgettable Hurricane Katrina. Lacy recently took part in a one-on-one interview with packers.com Editor Vic Ketchman. In this interview Lacy discussed, not only being an NFL rookie, but also what it was like to live through the destruction that was brought by Hurricane Katrina.
Katrina hit New Orleans in the last week of August 2005. Eddie Lacy would have been only 15 years old at the time of this massive storm. In the interview with Ketchman, he reveals that his personality was affected most by this trial in his life, saying:
The worst effect it had on me was, before the hurricane, I had pretty much an open personality. I laugh and joke 24/7; I'm pretty much like a big kid, for the most part. Whenever you see me I'm always laughing or joking; no matter how my day was I'm playing around. Playing is what I like to do. After the hurricane, having to switch schools and live in different places, that part of my life for three years, my personality pretty much left. I was quiet. I would go to class and do what I had to do, go to football practice. But when that was over, I would go home. I would just pretty much go straight to my room and just sit in my room the whole time.
Not only does Hurricane Katrina rank in the top five of the most deadliest hurricanes, but it is also the most costly natural disaster in the history of the United States. According to the National Hurricane Center, Katrina cost more than $125 billion, which is nearly twice as much as Hurricane Sandy.
It is possible to measure the destruction of a natural disaster by looking at statistics such as those mentioned above, but it is impossible to measure the emotional and physical pain, that events such as Hurricane Katrina or Hurricane Sandy, have on people.
It is easy to look at professional athletes and forget that they are more than just superstars, or highly paid entertainers. It is easy to look at Eddie Lacy and see an NFL rookie dripping with superstar potential, who was one yard short of his first 100-yard rushing game, without realizing that they too, can be, and are affected by the same things that many of us, "average Joes" go through.
If we are honest, it is hard to watch a football game and realize that the players we are watching are more than football players, they're people. This interview with Eddie Lacy, forces fans to realize that.
