Brian Cashman Rumors
New York Notes: Cashman, Santana, Pelfrey, Ibanez
It has been a busy week in the Big Apple with the Yankees losing Robinson Cano to the Mariners and coming to terms with Jacoby Ellsbury, Carlos Beltran, and Hiroki Kuroda. The Mets meanwhile were able to sign Curtis Granderson away from the Pinstripes. Here's the latest on the New York teams:
- Yankees GM Brian Cashman told reporters, including Anthony McCarron of the New York Daily News, he's not done making moves. "I've got work to do," Cashman said. "I need a starter, bullpen, second base. We've still got work." Cashman also addressed a report Cano had reservations about playing for manager Joe Girardi. "I'm not aware of that. You'd have to ask Robbie, I guess. It's never been an issue that I'm aware of."
- The Mets are one of seven or eight teams who have inquired about Johan Santana, sources tell The Star-Ledger's Jorge Castillo. Michael Baron of Metsblog.com doubts any team will offer Santana more than a minor league deal because of his shoulder issues. The Mets opted for a $5.5MM buyout of Santana's $25MM club option in November making the 34-year-old left-hander a free agent.
- The Yankees have checked on free agent right-hander Mike Pelfrey, tweets CBSSports.com's Jon Heyman.
- The Yankees are interested in a reunion with Raul Ibanez but he isn't a top priority for them, tweets the New York Post's Joel Sherman. Ibanez, despite being 41, is being courted by teams in both leagues including the Rockies, Braves, Mariners, and Rangers, Sherman tweets.
- The focus of both the Yankees and Mets will be on the trade market rather than free agents during the Winter Meetings, tweets Andy Martino of the New York Daily News.
- Martino adds, in a separate tweet, the Mets were never in on Scott Feldman and don't seem to be in play for mid-rotation help.
- CC Sabathia was surprised by Cano's decision because he did not expect the Yankees to allow Cano to leave, and he did not expect Cano to actually go, reports Andy McCullough of The Star-Ledger. "Just a player like that, putting on the pinstripes, and being able to play your whole career in New York means something – to me, obviously," Sabathia said. "It didn't mean that much to him. It's a difficult choice being a free agent. And he made a tough choice. I know he's happy with his decision, and his family's happy. So that's good."

Quick Hits: Biogenesis, Abreu, Mariners, A's
Major League Baseball considers the Biogenesis investigation closed in terms of looking into players, but they're still investigating the possible involvement of some agents, according to Bob Nightengale of USA Today (on Twitter). Here's more from around baseball..
- Speaking of Biogenesis, MLB released a statement saying that Miguel Tejada did not warrant any discipline based on what they uncovered in the investigation, tweets Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times. Of course, Tejada will still have to serve his 105-game suspension for amphetamine use.
- Jose Dariel Abreu is working on establishing residency in Haiti and there isn't an open showcase scheduled yet, according to Jesse Sanchez of MLB.com (on Twitter). Abreu has drawn interest from several clubs so far including the Red Sox, Orioles, Pirates, and White Sox.
- The status of Mariners GM Jack Zduriencik is expected to be updated if not entirely clarified within the next few days, people familiar with the situation tell Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com. When asked about speculation that the M's could make a play for Brian Cashman, club president Chuck Armstrong spoke positively of the Yankees GM but wouldn't discuss him in context.
- The Athletics continue to look for catching help as they have been for the past couple of weeks or so, tweets Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle.
- In retrospect, the Cardinals really could have used Kyle Lohse this season, writes Jeff Gordon of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

AL East Notes: Soriano, Cashman, Red Sox
With the Red Sox losing the division lead for the first time in two months, here's the latest from a hotly contested American League East …
- The deal that brought Alfonso Soriano back to the Yankees was consummated over the objections of GM Brian Cashman, reports Joel Sherman of the New York Post. "I would say we are in a desperate time," said Cashman. "Ownership wants to go for it. I didn't want to give up a young arm." The club dealt young righty Corey Black (and took on salary) to add the 37-year-old Soriano. MLBTR's Steve Adams rounded up the reactions to the deal yesterday.
- Cashman's latest overruling continues a trend, Sherman further reports in the same piece. Most recently, Cashman reportedly preferred signing catcher Russell Martin and outfielder Nate Schierholtz this last offseason. Instead, ownership pushed a two-year, $13MM deal with Ichiro Suzuki. While the Yanks could have Martin and Schierholtz playing right now on one-year deals, says Sherman, the team instead has an aging Ichiro-Soriano combination set to earn $11.5MM next season.
- The Red Sox must add talent, writes Michael Silverman of the Boston Herald, or risk dropping back in a tight AL East race. Silverman opines that the club should call up top prospect Xander Bogaerts to provide much-needed pop from the left side of the infield. Meanwhile, with Clay Buchholz still not on a clear timetable and with Miguel Alfredo Gonzalez choosing the Phillies over the Sox, Silverman says that Boston should also make a deal for a starter.
- Should Boston make a move to bolster its rotation, one player who could be dealt is third baseman Will Middlebrooks. WEEI.com's Rob Bradford reports that Middlebrooks, who is trying to work his way back to the form he showed in his 2012 rookie campaign, has heard the rumors for the first time in his recollection. "I'm just trying to keep my nose out of it," Middlebrooks said. The 24-year-old indicated that he remains content in the Red Sox organization in spite of his struggles this year: "I have a good opportunity here. I don't need to get traded to have a good opportunity."
- Looking at Boston's recent history, Brian MacPherson of the Providence Journal suggests that the team could look to pick up a somewhat under-the-radar player that can contribute not just this season, but in the future. MacPherson notes that the Sox added catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia (2010), shortstop Mike Aviles (2011), and reliever Craig Breslow (2012) when the price proved right and the deal met the club's multi-year needs. This season, with Saltalamacchia nearing free agency and backup David Ross injured, the team could look to deal for a backstop with future control even as it gives playing time to prospect Ryan Lavarnway. MacPherson suggests the Padres' Nick Hundley as a possibility, while noting that San Diego could be hesitant to move him.

AL Notes: Yankees, A's, Royals, White Sox, Mariners
With the Dodgers and manager Don Mattingly at Yankee Stadium today, Yankees GM Brian Cashman discussed the process that resulted in Yanks' manager Joe Girardi getting the gig over Donnie Baseball back in 2007. Cashman considered those two gentlemen along with fellow late-80's/early-90's favorite Tony Pena. Managing the Yankees, explains Cashman, requires a wide range of skills that go well beyond the playing field. Ultimately, he said that Mattingly lacked the managerial experience that he was looking for: "The area that was a very difficult hurdle for him at the time, and obviously he doesn't have that anymore to deal with, is obviously at the time, he hadn't managed a game in the big leagues. So was I going to be in a position to be comfortable enough to turn over $200 million worth of assets to someone who hadn't done that before in-game."
Here are a few notes from some other American League clubs:
- The City of San Jose has brought suit against Major League Baseball relating to the Athletics' potential move to the city, alleging various federal and state antitrust claims along with a claim for interference with prospective economic advantage. In a piece for Fangraphs yesterday, Wendy Thurm gave an excellent overview of the background legal principles governing the dispute, along with the procedural and strategic considerations that will frame it. The situation could, of course, have a major impact on the A's budget moving forward. I highly recommend a read.
- Moving to the AL Central, Fangraphs' Jeff Sullivan took a look at the Royals' impressive recent run of pitching-fueled success. Even as the team's offense continues to sputter, its starters (and excellent defense) have allowed KC to regain traction in the postseason race. Of course, the squad's rotation is led by arms that were acquired in a series of heavily-scrutinized transactions. GM Dayton Moore traded for James Shields and Wade Davis, dealt for Ervin Santana, and gave a three-year deal to free agent Jeremy Guthrie. While Davis has struggled and Guthrie's peripherals are concerning, the collective rotation ERA stands at 7th in baseball.
- As the Royals gear up to try and make a run at the playoffs, the AL Central-rival White Sox appear to be readying to sell at the trade deadline. As MLB.com's Kelly Erickson reports, GM Rick Hahn says the team has "had some phone calls — more of the vulture-type phone calls, the type that traditionally we're more accustomed to making." Given the "hole that we've dug for ourselves," says Hahn, "teams are going to look at us as potential sellers when the deadline comes, and they're starting to lay a little bit of that ground work now."
- The Mariners are coming up on some roster decisions with Dustin Ackley hitting the ball well in Triple-A and Franklin Gutierrez close to returning from the 60-day DL, writes Geoff Baker of the Seattle Times. While Ackley's return to the bigs has been delayed while he learns to man the outfield, the seemingly inevitable result will be some roster casualties. Baker tabs outfielder Endy Chavez and pitcher Aaron Harang as potential candidates for the waiver wire.

AL Notes: Yankees, Bauer, Twins, Dickey
If you are looking for some interesting reading this evening, have a look at the evolution of the defensive shift as told by Travis Sawchik of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. Meanwhile, let's take a look at some American League clubs and ballplayers:
- We heard on Wednesday that the Yankees were looking for a right-handed bat, and all signs point to that need being real. Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports that Jayson Nix, who sports a career .365 slugging percentage, has been taking balls at first base in case the team wants a righty to spell Lyle Overbay. Nix has held down third base while Kevin Youkilis works his way back, but the Yanks' recent acquisition of Chris Nelson provides the club with another option at the hot corner.
- Yankees GM Brian Cashman deserves a ton of credit for finding value in Overbay, Travis Hafner, and Vernon Wells, tweets Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com. There may be a flicker of light at the end of the tunnel for the scrambling Cashman, however. Hoch reports that Ivan Nova, Mark Teixeira, Alex Rodriguez, and Youkilis are all expected to report to the Yankees' Tampa facility for rehab work. Meanwhile, Curtis Granderson has been playing in extended spring training since Wednesday.
- Count Paul Hoynes of the Plain Dealer as a fan of the Indians' decision to trade for young pitcher Trevor Bauer this offseason. Hoynes writes that Bauer is ready to be a successful big leaguer this year, and may be the most talented pitching prospect in Cleveland since a certain CC Sabathia.
- Of course, all three teams involved in the deal that brought Bauer to the Indians seem to have gotten what they wanted out of the deal (at least so far). In addition to Bauer, outfielder Drew Stubbs is off to a fairly promising start for Cleveland, and currently sports a .284/.340/.420 line. The Indians have also enjoyed quality bullpen work from Matt Albers and Bryan Shaw. Meanwhile, Shin-Soo Choo has clobbered the ball for the Reds, putting up a .330/.467/.541 line. He has done so while playing a passable, albeit below average, center field. And the Diamondbacks not only seem quite pleased with shortstop prospect Didi Gregorius, who is off to a .407/.448/.778 start in his first 30 plate appearances, but have received solid production from veteran reliever Tony Sipp.
- Of course, not all deals turn out the way you hope. As ESPN's Buster Olney notes on Twitter, Twins fans are (or should be) cringing at the hot start for the Brewers' Carlos Gomez. After emerging as a solid regular center fielder last season, Gomez is putting up excellent power, speed, and on-base numbers thus far in 2013. The Twins shipped Gomez to Milwaukee in return for J.J. Hardy after the 2009 season, and later sent Hardy to the Orioles to make way for the failed Tsuyoshi Nishioka experiment. In exchange for Hardy, in turn, the Twins got a pair of young righties — Jim Hoey and Brett Jacobson — who have failed to deliver any value to the club.
- While the full ramifications of trades often take years to clarify, the Blue Jays could be wondering already how the recent trade for R.A. Dickey will turn out. As Mark Simon of ESPN.com explains, Dickey is failing to get hitters to chase pitches outside the zone, which could attributable in part to decreased knuckleball velocity. On the other side of the ledger, the Mets have surprisingly received incredible production from a seemingly minor piece of that deal — catcher John Buck — and were able to slot prospects Travis d'Arnaud and Noah Syndergaard atop the team's prospect list.

Quick Hits: Phillies, Yankees, Red Sox, Cubs
Let's take a quick trip around four of baseball's five most valuable franchises, according to Forbes:
- Phillies GM Ruben Amaro Jr. discussed the team's offseason strategy and looked ahead to the new season in a wide-ranging question-and-answer session with Sam Donnellon of the Philadelphia Daily News. When asked about the decision to add yet more older players to his club, Amaro said that "age is a factor," but not the only factor. "I've said this before and [Yankees GM] Brian Cashman has said this before," said Amaro. "I don't worry so much about age as I do about production." Amaro did note that the team figures to get younger in the outfield with Ben Revere and Domonic Brown expected to occupy two starting spots.
- Meanwhile, the club has announced its Opening Day roster, which includes outfielder Ender Inciarte, according to a team tweet. As MLBTR previously noted, the 22-year-old Rule 5 draftee has yet to appear above High-A ball. Inciarte will remain Phillies property so long as he sticks on the club's 25-man roster (or is placed on the DL) for the duration of the season. Click here for an explanation of the Rule 5 Draft. Todd Zolecki of MLB.com tweets that he expects Inciarte to be returned to the Diamondbacks when Delmon Young is ready to join the club.
- Turning to Cashman's Yankees, CBS Sports' Jon Heyman pulled no punches when reviewing the club's offseason, writing that "no one had a worse spring training than baseball's most storied team, maybe ever." Heyman further reports that, in spite of their public proclamations and massive payroll, the Yanks' brass is very concerned internally about the club's prospects for 2013. Likewise, ESPN's Jim Bowden predicted that New York would finish last in the AL East, writing that the club could sport a losing record for the first time since 1992.
- Meanwhile, first baseman Lyle Overbay has made the Yankees Opening Day roster, Andy McCullough of the Star-Ledger reported on Twitter. The 36-year-old was inked shortly after being released by the Red Sox. MLB.com's Bryan Hoch previously reported that Overbay signed what Cashman described as "a three-day, NBA-style contract" to allow the club to get "a quick peek" at the veteran. As McCullough wrote, Cashman has described his recent scramble to add players by evoking the famous Emma Lazarus line featured on the Statue of Liberty: "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to break [sic] free."
- While nothing is yet official, Red Sox prospect Jackie Bradley Jr. is heading with the club to New York, where the team opens against the Yankees on Monday, tweets Pete Abraham of the Boston Globe. The club will need to clear a 40-man roster spot before it can select the contract of the young outfielder, notes Brian MacPherson of the Providence Journal (on Twitter).
- The Cubs' front office is working hard to make final additions to the roster, writes Phil Rogers of the Chicago Tribune (must register to access article). After adding players like Luis Valbuena and Shawn Camp around this time last year, Rogers says, the club could be active on the waiver wire.

AL Notes: Yankees, Happ, Indians
The Yankees made some last minute moves this week when they traded for Vernon Wells and picked up the recently-released Lyle Overbay. Both Wells and Overbay have made the club along with Ben Francisco and Brennan Boesch, leaving Juan Rivera as the odd man out. Tbe first baseman/outfielder was cut loose, though he did cash in on a $100K retention bonus for staying on the roster beyond Tuesday's Article XX(B) deadline. Here's more from the Junior Circuit..
- It's time for the Yankees to start looking for a replacement for Derek Jeter, Wallace Matthews of ESPNNewYork.com writes. Eduardo Nunez, who is manning shortstop in Jeter's absence, is not a good solution for the long haul, Matthews argues, and Jeter's age and injury status are both worrisome. Matthews also suggests that the Yankees should have acquired Jose Reyes or Yunel Escobar in the offseason.
- Having gone in just days from being ticketed for Triple-A to being in the big-league rotation with a new contract extension, Blue Jays pitcher J.A. Happ is thrilled with his recent streak of good fortune, reports MLB.com's Gregor Chisholm. "It certainly has been a great few days," says Happ. "There was a long time before that where it wasn't quite as easy, but this kind of makes it all worth it."
- After his team's signings of Nick Swisher and Michael Bourn, GM Chris Antonetti hopes the Indians will snag a playoff spot, Terry Pluto of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. The organization felt it needed a splashy offseason to maintain the attention of its fanbase, Pluto writes. "There is risk whenever you make substantial investment," says Antonetti. "But for us, there was even more risk if we didn't."

New York Notes: Mets, Havens, Marcum, Wells
Here are some notes from the big apple's two big league clubs:
- The Mets are "in desperate need of clearing several spots" on their 40-man roster, and have "put out word to other teams that they are interested in moving non-core prospects" who would have to pass through waivers to be retained, writes Adam Rubin of ESPNNewYork.com. With the team likely in need of four roster vacancies to account for players who figure to be added to the 40-man before Opening Day, the Mets could look to move players such as Gonzalez Germen, Darin Gorski, Reese Havens, Juan Lagares, Cesar Puello, Elvin Ramirez, and Hansel Robles, according to Rubin.
- The Blue Jays could be interested in the aforementioned Havens, tweets Andy Martino of the New York Daily News. Havens, a 25-year-old second baseman, has yet to see big league action and hit .215/.340/.351 over 390 Double-A plate appearances last year.
- After allowing him to reach free agency, the Brewers "didn't want to touch" Shaun Marcum this offseason due to injury concerns, tweets Martino. Marcum, now with the Mets, is looking unlikely to start the season in the rotation due to neck and shoulder issues, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com explains.
- The Yankees "will not receive credit on their 2014 luxury-tax payroll" for recently-acquired outfielder Vernon Wells, tweets FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal. Instead, "the charge for him will simply be zero." Rosenthal had previously discussed the complicated background of the Yankees' attempt to maximize their ability to get under the luxury tax threshold in structuring the Wells deal. Wells is still due $42MM over the next two seasons as he plays out the end of his 7-year, $126MM deal. As Rosenthal explains, the Yankees will pay him $13.9MM of the remaining obligation, with only $2.4MM of that allocated to 2014 for purposes of luxury tax avoidance.
- Rosenthal discussed the financial impact to the Yanks for acquiring Wells, questioning whether the club might have been better served by instead inking Russell Martin this off-season. In particular, Rosenthal explained that Martin told New York that he would agree to a one-year deal for around $9-10MM before he agreed to terms with the Pirates on a two-year, $17MM contract.
- Discussing his contract, which he originally signed with the Blue Jays before it was famously assumed by the Angels, Vernon Wells acknowledged that "no one's worth that kind of money," tweets Andy McCullough of The Star-Ledger. Wells continued: "It's what the market's worth at that time … I caught the market at a good time."
- While commentators and fans seem skeptical of the Yankees' prospects for 2013, as well as their recent roster moves, GM Brian Cashman is resolute, writes McCullough (hat tip to River Ave. Blues). Cashman says that any notion of rebuilding is "just not part of our DNA," and rejects the notion that the team has been holding back on spending, though he acknowledges that he intends to "tread water until the guys come back." In terms of philosophy on long-term commitments, Cashman says he will not be "gun-shy," but nevertheless will be "more choosy" going forward.
- Cashman also discussed the decision not to beat the Mets' offer for then-Twins hurler Johan Santana. Unlike current Yankees starter C.C. Sabathia, Cashman noted, Santana profiled as a "high-risk player going forward, health-wise."

Cashman Eyeing Derrek Lee, Chipper Jones, Rolen
It's no secret that the Yankees are searching for corner infield depth following Mark Teixeira's wrist injury. GM Brian Cashman updated reporters on the team's search earlier today, detailing interest in some veteran players. All links courtesy of Jack Curry of the YES Network and Joel Sherman of the New York Post on Twitter, unless noted otherwise..
- Jones got a "good chuckle" upon learning of the Yankees' interest in him, agent B.B. Abbott told Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com (on Twitter).
- Cashman called Derrek Lee a Yankees type because of his approach and makeup, Curry reports. The Yankees recently reached out to Lee to see if he'd come out of retirement to play in New York. Asked about the chances of completing a deal, Cashman noted that Lee isn't with the Yankees now. The GM is not currently optimistic about signing Lee, according to Sherman.
- Cashman said he'd sign Chipper Jones if the third baseman were willing to come out of retirement, Sherman reports. The GM said his interest in Jones was serious and that he intended to call his agent, Curry notes. However, B.B. Abbott told Sherman that he can't see his client coming out of retirement. "I don't think [playing for the Yankees] is something he would consider, but he would be flattered," Abbott said.
- Cashman also investigated the possibility of signing free agent third baseman Scott Rolen, Curry reports. The GM hinted that Rolen wants a guarantee of playing time and/or money, however.
- The Dodgers and Reds both offered Rolen $4MM only to have him turn the proposals down, according to Sherman, who has heard that Rolen would only play for a guaranteed salary.

Quick Hits: Rivera, Jeter, Orioles, Harang
GM Brian Cashman explains how the Yankees nearly traded Mariano Rivera for shortstop Felix Fermin in spring of 1996, as noted by Mark Feinsand of the New York Daily News. To describe the deal as "franchise-altering" would be an enormous understatement, since it would have affected not only Rivera but also then-rookie Derek Jeter.
Cashman, then an assistant GM, says that then-owner George Steinbrenner was concerned about entrusting Jeter with the starting shortstop job, and "it was a fight to convince The Boss to stand down" and avoid trading Rivera or Bob Wickman to the Mariners for Fermin. "And it wasn't because we knew what we had in Mo or Wickman," Cashman says. "It was, we had committed to go with young Jeter, and thankfully we didn't do that deal." As it turned out, Jeter won the 1996 AL Rookie of the Year award, Rivera finished third in Cy Young balloting, and the Yankees won their first World Series title since 1978. The Mariners, meanwhile, released Fermin in April, and he only ended up posting 19 more plate appearances in the majors. Here are more notes from throughout baseball.
- David Robertson tops the list of potential Yankees closer candidates once Rivera retires at the end of the season, Adam Berry of MLB.com reports. Joba Chamberlain and David Aardsma are also possibilities, Berry says. The Yankees have an entire year to choose a successor, however.
- The Orioles are on the lookout for catching depth, report Rich Dubroff of CSNBaltimore.com and Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports. Matt Wieters is, clearly, entrenched as Baltimore's starter, and Taylor Teagarden will likely serve as his backup, but the Orioles are concerned about their depth beyond those two. The only other catcher on their 40-man roster is Luis Exposito, although manager Buck Showalter is also curious about new addition Luis Martinez, who spent much of 2012 with the Rangers' Triple-A affiliate in Round Rock. With Wieters and several other options in the fold, it seems unlikely the O's will make a major move for a catcher, despite what Kubatko calls their "sloppy" play behind the dish this spring. Dubroff suggests that Eli Whiteside of the Rangers, Miguel Olivo of the Reds and Chris Snyder of the Nationals might be possibilities.
- The Dodgers' Aaron Harang says he isn't worried about rumors that he'll be traded, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com writes. "I don't even think about that," says Harang. "We know [scouts are] in the stands. I look at them as fans as well. I'm not worried about that." The Dodgers have a surplus of starting pitching, and Harang currently doesn't have a clear shot at a rotation job. The Brewers and Orioles could be potential suitors for Harang.

We are debating between tailgating or hitting Patriots Place on Monday Night. Last year, we did this once and had a good time on the roof deck at Bar Louie's, though I assume its closed now that it's cold. Anybody have experience and thoughts re where's a good time to hang out in PP? -- FRITZ
it really depends on what you want to do..... bar scene versus parking lot scene.......its not like there are a whole lot of similarities to ponder
cbs scene.......red robin......davios....pretty much all somewhat sterile environments for prepping for a football game......though i tmay be worth stopping in before actually heading into the stadium since the beers are likely cheaper my problem is the fact that I will be all layered up for the game, then going into one of these places you either sweat your butt off or have to disrobe
If you're going to hit up a bar I'd say go to Bar Louie or CBS Scene. Those are the most sports oriented bars over there and I feel like the others are more sit down for meals places.
Last time I was there, 2 teenagers jumped into the giant fish tank at the sporting goods store. While I'm sure they had a good time, I don't think I'd recommend it.

0 Graduated in 2011 and after a year of applying to hospital jobs within two hours of my current residence I finally found a full time position. I have been there for three months, love the floor, the staff, and am starting to feel confidant. The only downside it the 75 mile commute with night shift. This week a hospital 8 miles from home called to schedule an interview. The position is 5 hours less per week but slightly more pay, same hours and same type of floor. I am torn, and not sure what to do. I would like to work closer to home especially working overnights but am not sure how this would look on a resume leaving after only three months. My manage is aware of the commute and I have thought about asking to continue working on a per diem basis. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Must Read Topics
0Sep 26, '12 by nhnurse25The decision is a hard one. I know that I would most likely get better experience at the hospital closer to home. The hopsital I am currently working at is a small 25 bed hospital. Most of the patients are there for an extended period of time and are stabilized by the time they come to our floor. There are definitely things to learn where I am now, and you can never predict how the day is going to go. I have a little bit of loyalty tugging at me right now, and feel bad switching jobs after a such a short time period because of the amount of time they have invested in orienting me as a new nurse.0Sep 28, '12 by MrChicagoRNI was in a similar situation as you. Not a lot of miles, but an hour long stop-n-go commute of a hundred stop lights. Took me about 6 months to get used to it. I just left the job for other reasons, and it was difficult to leave people I enjoyed working with. You can always go on the interview and see what happens.0Sep 28, '12 by SHGR, MSN, RNCould you move closer to your current job? Or crash on a co-worker's couch in between two 12's? That would lessen the commute. I can't even imagine driving that distance after a night shift!

Increasing Equity and Access to Education in Kenya: The Role of Open and Distance Learning in Teacher Development
Agalo, Joyce, Agalo, Jerry, Research Journal in Organizational Psychology and Educational Studies (RJOPES)
The expansion of education especially at the basic level in developing countries over the past few decades has been tremendous. Alongside the expansion, there have been the advances in information and communication technologies which have led to the emergence of new approaches in the delivery of education. One such approach is Open and distance learning (ODL).
In most developing countries ODL still continues to struggle to gain the social acceptance and prestige as that of conventional or contact education. This is because education as has been and continues to be known to the majority of individuals is face-to-face. In essence, this mode of education delivery is characterised by the synchronous physical presence of both the teacher and learner in a specific location. In addition, this traditional campus-based form of education provision has a longer history than ODL and has therefore established itself both in terms of content, structures and mode of delivery. However, despite the above stated scenario, a number of
emerging economies and developing countries such as, South Africa, India, Tanzania, and Nigeria have well established Open and distance learning institutions and programmes, and have even successfully used ODL to train teachers. In fact, when considered on a global perspective, UNESCO (2002:3) indicates that "Distance education has been used to teach, support and develop teachers for many years ... experience demonstrates that distance education can be used to enable teachers to learn and to gain qualifications."
The practice of conventional campus-based education system in Kenya, for example, is characterised by centralised, authoritarian, and rigid structures. Such contexts often hinder the emergence of open, flexible and participatory approaches associated with open and distance education. Today, one would define distance education not entirely as a mode of delivery that overcomes the geographic distance between teacher and learner, but rather one that supports the self determination of the learner. In this respect, learner self determination would pertain to three levels: content, time and location. ODL can therefore be understood to provide learners with greatest possible degree of flexibility and independence with respect to preferred course content, time and location. This opens up access for learners of all kinds.
Currently, Kenya has over 130,000 students enrolled locally in both public and private universities in a variety of programmes. The average annual admission in all Kenyan public universities through the Joint Admission Board (JAB) has been about ten thousand (10,000) students annually, until 2007 when it was increased to sixteen thousand (16,000) and to about 30,000 over the last three years. This translates to only 12.3% of the total number of qualified students being admitted through JAB. The disparity between those meeting university minimum entry requirements and those failing to get access into university education is causing concern and the government is already looking for alternatives such as increasing the number of universities and the establishment of a National Open University. In addition, the government is also encouraging dual mode universities to enhance their ODL programmes in order to increase access to university education.
Thus, the demand for education in Kenya is increasing annually and ODL is significantly emerging as a viable option that should be embraced aggressively to provide effective access to higher education. This is because ODL has been proven to enhance access opportunities and provide a second chance to the increasing number of learners who want to upgrade their qualifications. It also enhances equity since it can reach remote, underdeveloped and marginalised areas. In this case, it is seen to bring education closer to the learner, thus increasing the chances of enrolment by those who could not have otherwise had the opportunity of accessing it under the conventional campus-based system which is fixed to a specific location and constrained by physical capacity. …

Comment #1 by VectorUSS Monday, March 19, 2012 @ 10:59:05 AM Pretty self explanatory just chose to kill Leon | |
Comment #2 by Carreau Thursday, March 22, 2012 @ 08:04:37 AM Basically the hardest thing ever asked in a video game is killing this man. Takes 10 grenade launchers to the chest and about 250 bullets and still lives. If you get close to execute him you gotta be perfect because if he hits you once he will execute you perfectly. | |
Comment #3 by AssasinZAssasin Thursday, March 22, 2012 @ 08:54:16 AM Well, i took the cheap way out. I took in a Precision rifle, and took out all zombies. I hid behind the crate outside the gates and kept shooting him when he comes up to either shoot or throw a grenade. Self explanatory that you avoid the grenades after shooting him once.If you get too injured, heal...Cuz his pistol must be packed with sniper bullets cuz they hurt! Well, took me about 20 or so minutes of shooting him once everytime he comes up... | |
Comment #4 by ViolaD Thursday, March 22, 2012 @ 02:25:44 PM @#2 Yes, he's hella hard. My entire team deserted me on Veteran mode so I had to snipe him and watch out for his grenades. Definitely a pain in the butt. | |
Comment #5 by JoSchmo6 Thursday, March 22, 2012 @ 05:33:54 PM Nothing like putting 4 full clips right in his face while only playing on normal difficulty than having him shoot you 3 times to kill you.... | |

Comment #7 by Moondo75 Friday, March 23, 2012 @ 07:26:51 PM i found that a good way to kill him is to play as vector and take a shotgun with high fire rate. turn invisable and charge his ass (he can somehow detect you once you get close though, so you gotta kill him quick). | |
Comment #8 by dropem5 Saturday, March 24, 2012 @ 10:13:13 PM i hid behind the crates and let the red face zombies do most the work for me | |
Comment #9 by shaun pickett Monday, March 26, 2012 @ 04:03:22 PM Not to this point yet but it sounds like Leon is a bitch 2 kill! | |
Comment #10 by Hawainikan Friday, March 30, 2012 @ 08:26:38 AM If you have a partner as the character who has the health bonus (can't remember her name) and the grenade launcher and you play as Lupo with the incendiary ammo on with a good shotgun like the juggernaut then it's actually quite easy. I killed him in 8 minutes on veteran on my second try. | |
Comment #11 by Nas559 Saturday, March 31, 2012 @ 08:50:14 PM Just play casual n choose to kill Leon on the last level. It's pretty easy | |
Comment #12 by shaun pickett Sunday, April 01, 2012 @ 08:37:32 AM Sorry Leon but I want the 15 gs. | |
Comment #13 by shaun pickett Sunday, April 01, 2012 @ 10:44:49 PM I died like 6 times on casual! Any tips??? | |
Comment #14 by shaun pickett Wednesday, April 11, 2012 @ 09:00:32 PM The sniper rifle trick works like a charm. Just make sure you're far enough back that his grenades cant hurt you. | |

Comment #16 by gwconner Sunday, September 16, 2012 @ 02:57:02 PM I do not remember being this hard to kill when I was playing as Leon in earlier games... Anyhow, I am trying to snipe from the stairs but it is so time-consuming. Where is a rocket launcher when you need one? | |
Comment #17 by Orion Nightmare Saturday, February 22, 2014 @ 01:08:28 AM My only advice for anyone trying to do this is pacing. Don't try to rush him, you will get face gaped on any difficulty. Go on casual, get to him and then take out the other two however you wish. I was Lupo when i did this so i sniped them with incendiary rounds. After that shoot a grenade launcher at where he sits (should be middle if you're on the boxes infront of the door to him) and he should fly to the right, he'll not be able to shoot or throw grenades through the metal grating but you can shoot through it. If he's shootable through that then just sit there with the sniper and pop his stupid prick face till he dies like the pansy bitch he is. | |
Comment #18 by Dizza Monday, May 19, 2014 @ 01:14:14 PM Just finished the game after reading this thread. It's really easy. Didn't even need health when killing Leon. Equip d arbiter sniper and incendiary ability. When Leon comes up to throw grenades aim and shoot his head. Use d incendiary ammo as much as possible. Funny thing is at a point he'll stand up from behind the crate he's been hiding and let you use him for some target practice right before he dies hahaha | |
Comment #19 by Dizza Monday, May 19, 2014 @ 01:17:20 PM Edit: Ur character is hiding behind the crate opposite the entrance to Leon's iron-grated enclosure | |

Hamishwillee - Plans? Draft?
Hi Slobo80
The video presentation looks pretty good. As this is still in draft, can we assume that you will be writing an article as well - or is your intention just to publish the video? It would be great if you could make this a "proper" article.
Would it be possible to upload the source and powerpoint to the wiki? The links to skydrive force people to have their own skydrive accounts, which is unreasonable. Also there is no clear information for users on how they can use the material, while if it is on the wiki its clear that its available under wiki terms and conditions.
Regards Hamish
Note that I've updated the categories. We don't really have one for "Analytics", so I've stuck under tools, debugging and general programming. Hope that seems reasonable to you. Perhaps "performance" or "optimisation" as well?hamishwillee 08:08, 27 August 2012 (EEST)

In a continuation of my series of articles about Java Web development frameworks, this article will look at the Tapestry framework. Because Tapestry is a rather large framework, one article is not enough to cover most of its features. I decided to split the discussion about Tapestry into two parts. In this first part, I will focus on the configuration of the framework in an enterprise-level IDE such as JBuilder 2005 and prepare the groundwork for a working example in the second part. I will also describe the structure of the framework and its main features in this article, and concentrate on more specific features and details in the second part. Tapestry is an open-source framework for Web development written in Java. It competes with other frameworks such as Struts, WebWork, and Turbine to be the first choice of Web developers as an application framework. It was developed by Howard Lewis Ship and is part of Jakarta project at Apache Software Foundation. Tapestry is not like the other Web development frameworks, not only in terms of its structure and APIs but also in terms of the development process. It uses a component object model to represent the pages of a Web application. Working with Tapestry feels more like developing a desktop application with Graphical User Interface (GUI) widgets or java Swing components. Under the hood framework is written cleverly enough to make coding a Web application feel as a desktop application development. The framework does a tremendous amount of work behind the scenes and hidden from the developers, such as object pooling, multi threading, listener callbacks, garbage collections, session state, rendering, and other processes. At first glance, Tapestry may appear to be overly complex and resource intensive; however, it actually is not. Most of the components are cached or reused and structure is intuitive for any developer who has worked with Swing or a similar GUI toolkit. The framework also uses XML intensively. Tapestry implements the Model-View-Controller (MVC) paradigm not only for the overall separation of logic and presentation at the framework level, but also on the level of its individual components such as tables or forms, as I will explain in the next section. Additionally, numerous main components are implemented in terms of public interfaces to give developers a great deal of flexibility in using the framework. Tapestry also offers a built-in logging mechanism that is excellent. It is extremely flexible and provides a wealth of information. Here is a short description of the framework from the Apache site: Tapestry reconceptualizes Web application development in terms of objects, methods, and properties instead of URLs and query parameters. Tapestry is an alternative to scripting environments such as JavaServer Pages or Velocity. Tapestry goes far further, providing a complete framework for creating extremely dynamic applications with minimal amounts of coding. Tapestry's approach, using a component object model similar to a traditional GUI, provides the following benefits: Tapestry components are a combination of a specification file (in XML), an HTML template, and a Java class (extending a framework class, with simple additions). Tapestry components are combined together to form larger components or complete Tapestry pages. Similar to other Web development frameworks, Tapestry is configured via a set of XML property files and other resource files. There is a main [your-app-name].application config file, a set of custom application specific "jwc" and "page" resource files, and a traditional controller Servlet. But, this is where the resemblance to other MVC frameworks ends. A concept of Application Engine, a view rendering process, and templates makes Tapestry feel very different and stand our from the pack. Every HTML page that the user sees is rendered from a template by the application engine that is initialized per user session. Additionally, view objects follow an MVC pattern and have data models with states that can be changed. For example, forms can have listeners attached to them or tables could be "restored" to a previous state. Before I discuss the inner working and the main components of the framework, I want to talk about the development environment and its setup. For this article and the example in the second part, I'm using BEA WebLogic application server, JBuilder 2005 as the development IDE, and a free MySQL database for my database needs. Because J2EE has a standardized WAR and EAR packaging structure, you may use any other application server such as Apache Tomcat, any other IDE such as very popular and free Eclipse and any other database. Assuming you are savvy enough with using other tools and can comfortably create a WAR module, get it running on an application server, and connect to a database, all of my examples should work with minimal changes. But, descriptions and screenshots will reference my environment. To set up Tapestry, download it at http://jakarta.apache.org/tapestry/downloads.html. Create a new Project (call it Tapestry) in JBuilder and add Tapestry and MySQL connection libs into the project class-path. Assuming you have installed and configured BEA WebLogic with JBuilder, assign a server to the project. Next, create a new directory "resources." In this directory, I have placed all property and config files necessary for the sample application, including the main ".application" file. These files can be placed directly in the WEB-INF, but for convenience they have their own directory. Create a couple of empty text files with actual names such as "first-tapestry-app.application", "Home.page," and "Next.page" in that folder (you will add contents to these files later). Create a Web ModuleTapesryWebModulein JBuilder and configure it to include all libs in the WAR file build process and these resources.>
Assuming you also have downloaded MySql and installed it, this is all that is needed for the configuration of the development environment for now. The final project should look something like this: Here is a very general structure of the framework. Look at the configuration files before continuing to see the data flow and structure. The standard web.xml file for the WAR module of the sample Tapestry application can look like a very common config file for any WAR file. Here, I defined a servlet called "Controller" that extends org.apache.tapestry. ApplicationServlet (note that there have been a lot of changes between Tapestry versions 2 and 3, including a package structure in version 2 ApplicationServlet was under net.sf.tapestry.ApplicationServlet), and also mapped the servlet name. A subclass servlet is needed only if you want to customize the options and path. Tapesry's main servlet has several methods, such as getApplicationSpecificationPath, that can be overwritten. If you have no need to change these settings, you can use the ApplicationServlet directly. (Also note that the setupLogging method is no longer available in version 3.) As I mentioned, any Tapestry application also needs a main "application" config file. For example, the "first-tapestry-app.application" XML file located in the application server class path. You now can add contents to this file that is under the directory called "resources." It will end up under the "WEB-INF -> classes" directory of the WAR module. The first-tapestry-app.application file is very simple; you give the application name, use the standard engine, and define a single page, named "Home." In Tapestry, pages and components are specified with the path to their specification file (a file that ends with ".page" for page specifications or ".jwc" for component specifications). The page named "Home" has a special meaning to Tapestry: When you first launch a Tapestry application, it loads and displays the "Home" page. All Tapestry applications are required to have such a page. The "JWC" stands for java Web components and "page" files are XML files that describe structure of the HTML file. In Tapestry, every HTML page that the user sees is rendered dynamically and consists of at least three pieces. One piece is an HTML template file that is pure HTML with place holders for Tapestry components. The second piece is the XML specification "page" file that defines what will go (and be done) with the final HTML. The third piece is usually a corresponding Java Class. There could be many more "helper" files, defining individual JWC components, and so on. The Home page specification could look like this: The corresponding Home.html could look like this: The application will compile and run but it's not very exciting; there's no dynamic content. A very interesting observation is that there was no JavaServer page (JSP) here, and no HTML directly visible to the Web server. Tapestry assembled an application consisting of a single component on the fly and presented it to the user. This is one of the greatest differences between Tapestry and other Web development frameworks. Additionally, these created objects and pooled and reused, which makes this framework very scalable. In this article, I have described the basic concepts of the Tapestry framework. I have decided to split my discussion about the framework in to two parts because I feel it's too large and complex for one article. I have shown how to create a sample project in an enterprise-scale IDE such as JBuilder and talked about framework config files and setup. In the next part of this article, I will show you how to create a real dynamic example that communicates to a RDBM source and uses more Tapestry components.

Weaving the Tapestry Framework
October 24, 2005
Background of Tapestry
Everything in Tapestry is a reusable component
Code in terms of objects, methods, and properties, not URLs and query parameters
Framework does all the URL building and message dispatching, transparently
Framework selects localized version of text, templates, and images
Less code is less bugs
Sophisticated built-in exception reporting
Line precise error reporting
Graphic designers and Java developers can work together without having to know each other's jobsStructure of the Framework
"The goal of Tapestry is to eliminate most of the coding in a Web application. Under Tapestry, nearly all code is directly related to application functionality, with very little "plumbing." If you have previously developed a Web application using PHP, Microsoft Active Server Pages, JavaServer Pages, or Java Servlets, you may take all the plumbing for granted: writing servlets, assembling URLs, parsing URLs, managing objects inside the HttpSession, and so forth. Tapestry takes care of nearly all of that, for free. It allows for the development of rich, highly interactive applications." (Kevin C. Dorff, Tapestry online tutorial)
Setup and Configuration
Note: As of this writing, Tapestry is up to version 3.0.3 and MySQL database at version 4.1 with Connector/J mysql-connector-java-3.1.11-bin.jar.

I truly don't understand the issue some people have with women nursing in public. Why is it ok for me to feed my child by way of bottle and not tit? I formula feed, but I just feel for women when I see their posts on here about being nervous to NIP. Feed your baby with no shame mamas! People who have an issue with FEEDING YOUR CHILD can pound sand!
If I can feed my formula fed child in public, you should be able to NIP...
Posted 12/29/2013
I was nervous at first - not sure why, but I was scared! I out my cover on and started to feed her and.... No one gave a shit. No one stared or commented. I just fed her and was done. Now I've NIP several times in many places and am much more comfortable!

If they have a problem squirt them...i hate nosey people, if they dont want to nip fine but dont tell someone else they shouldnt.
Posted 12/29/2013
I was bf my baby in the nursing room in Nordstrom & a woman walked in with her baby & little girl walked in & she's like oh she's bf close your eyes & proceeds to talk to her baby saying oh your hungry I'm going to feed you right now & made sure to pull out her nursing cover in front of me. I was like seriously lol
Posted 12/29/2013
I have done both and no body deserves to be shamed for how they feed their baby. All that matters is baby being fed,nothing else. Nothing wrong with nursing in public if the momma wants
Posted 12/29/2013
Way to teach your daughter to be ashamed. Smh. I have a 5 year old and 3 year old boys they both have seen me and know what bf is. They have told people that mommy feeds the baby milk from her. They have been with me when I nip I wouldn't want it any other way
Posted 12/29/2013
I've found that I am way more comfortable nursing in public in front of strangers than I am nursing in the homes of friends or family because THEY make me feel uncomfortable. It's a strange feeling.

Thanks! I FF my first, EBF this LO. I fed/feed both in public without shame! I just remember its Other people who have a problem with thinking its wrong, I'm not the wrong one- I'm only feeding a hungry baby!
Posted 12/29/2013
I refuse to do it. I bottle fed him in public. Good thing I didn't only breastfeed because he was losing weight with breast milk.

per comprendere a pieno le tradizioni e le usanze di un Paese credo che la cosa migliore sia viverlo tra indigeni, piuttosto che in un'anonima camera d'albergo! :D
Adelchi has completed online and offline ID verification.
We had an amazing New Years at Fabio's. The apartment is cozy and clean and is in an amazing part of the city; two minutes and you're at Saint Peter's! It is a basement apartment, but this didn't bother us at all. Fabio's housemates are very nice and we felt completely at home. Fabio provided us with a lovely breakfast tort (made by his very talented mother), a shelf in the fridge all to ourselves, and a shelf in the pantry stocked with everything we could need for breakfast, coffee, or a snack. We even had our own bathroom! Overall is was a truly lovely trip, and Fabio made our stay easy and comfortable. Thanks so much!!!! All'arrivo nell'appartamento ci hanno fatto trovare una crostata e succhi di frutta e latte, bellissima ospitalità. Hai anche un bagno personale!! grazie fabio
Hello there, what to say? well...nice, clean and comfortable. Fabio is a real gentlemen and he is always available for any kind of request. I really enjoyed staying in his flat...central and easy to find. As well as you are out of his flat, you are in the centre of Rome, next to San Peter's church and few steps from Vittorio Emanuele. Moreover he suggested me where to go around the city, and believe me he is 100% Roman...for sure i'll be back soon! Thanks again Fabio, hope to see you soon.
Fabio è un ragazzo "alla mano" sempre disponile, intelligente e pieno di (website hidden) casa è situata nel centro di Roma, comoda e accogliete, ma è la posizione la sua caratteristica fondamentale, 5 minuti a piedi da San Pietro, 10 minuti da Piazza Navona e il resto del centro; ve lo dico sinceramente avendo alloggiato una settimana nella suddetta casa.
Good evening guys!! I've known Fabio for many years and I can assure you he is an honest and reliable person. His house is pretty, very clean and wide; moreover it's placed in a very nice street in the very centre of Rome (two steps away St. Peter!). I'm sure Fabio will guarantee you all the possible comforts and the typical italian hospitality!!
Fabio è un ragazzo molto simpatico e la sua casa è decisamente accogliente, con stanze ampie e ben arredate. La posizione è ottima, ben collegata ed a due passi dalla cupola di San Pietro.
Hi everyone! I have been by Fabio several times and I had a great time! The position is wonderful, it is very very close to San Pietro Cathedral and the city centre. Fabio is a very kind and helpul person ! If you are going to stay some days in Rome this is the best place you can go because it is very near to the city centre,the room is big and neat and the house is very confortable!

Energy transport by acoustic modes of harmonic lattices
Harris, Lisa C., Lukkarinen, Jani, Teufel, Stefan, 1970- and Theil, Florian. (2008) Energy transport by acoustic modes of harmonic lattices. SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, Volume 40 (Number 4). pp. 1392-1418. ISSN 0036-1410

We study the large scale evolution of a scalar lattice excitation u which satisfies a discrete wave equation in three dimensions, u(t)(gamma) = -Sigma gamma' alpha(gamma - gamma') u(t)(gamma'), where gamma, gamma' epsilon Z(3) are lattice sites. We assume that the dispersion relation. associated to the elastic coupling constants alpha(gamma - gamma') is acoustic; i. e., it has a singularity of the type |k| near the vanishing wave vector, k = 0. To derive equations describing the macroscopic energy transport, we employ a related multiscale Wigner transform and a scale parameter epsilon > 0. The spatial and temporal scales of the Wigner transform are related to the corresponding lattice parameters via a scaling by e. In the continuum limit, which is achieved by sending the parameter e to 0, the Wigner transform disintegrates into three different limit objects: the Wigner transform of a rescaled weak-L-2 limit, an H-measure, and a Wigner measure. The first two provide the finer resolution of the energy concentrating at k = 0 so that a set of closed evolution equations may arise. We demonstrate that these three limit objects satisfy a set of decoupled transport equations: a wave equation for the weak limit, a geometric optics transport equation for the H-measure limit, and a dispersive transport equation for the standard limiting Wigner measure. This yields a complete characterization of macroscopic energy transport in harmonic lattices with regular acoustic dispersion relations.

Great shotgun for the money. Compared to Benelli and Browning the Winchester Super X3 sporting is rediclously amazing. The adjustable stock is awsome the fit and finish is great, and it cycles all 2 3/4 just fine with no problems at all. Super fast gun, cannot say enough good things about it. I would definately recommend it to a friend.

Senate Dems Move To Curb Fed's Powers
WASHINGTON (AP) ¿ Senate Democrats on Tuesday proposed stripping the Federal Reserve of its supervisory powers and creating instead three new federal agencies to police banks, protect consumers and dismantle failing institutions.
The 1,136-page bill, released by Senate Banking Committee Chairman Chris Dodd, would represent a significant shift in power in federal oversight of the U.S. market. The Fed has been a dominant figure in managing the economy, although many lawmakers blame the central bank for not doing enough to prevent last year's crisis.
"We saw over the last number of years when (the Fed) took on consumer protection responsibilities and the regulation of bank holding companies, it was an abysmal failure," said Dodd, a Connecticut Democrat.
Dodd's proposal prompted cheers from consumer advocates and other Democrats, including Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., an influential moderate who said swift action was necessary to prevent future government bailouts of big banks. "Never again should the American taxpayers have to hear about 'too big to fail,' where the American taxpayer has to pick up the slack," Warner said.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors
