The Little Island That Couldn't
Queens Spit Tried to Be a Resort but Sank in a Hurricane
Published: March 18, 1997
(Page 2 of 2)
Mr. Coch later assigned Edward Diaz, 22, to date the artifacts without informing him of Hog Island. A shattered aquamarine bottle had ''188-'' on it, with the last digit chipped off. Some pieces revealed their manufacturers -- ''Greenwood China'' of Trenton, N.J., was marked on one, for example; ''Wedgewood, England'' on another. From the breakdown of expensive and cheap ceramic fragments, Mr. Diaz believed it was possible to determine that they had come from a hotel or restaurant.
''My picture of the place is that it was for the average Joe,'' Mr. Diaz said.
Nothing is certain, of course, in recreating the past. Emil R. Lucev, born in the Rockaways 63 years ago and the historian for The Wave, the peninsula's 104-year-old weekly, said the artifacts could have come from west of Edgemere and Hog Island because the Army Corps of Engineers dredged in that area. Mr. Coch said that was possible, but because of the dates, the items were surely relics of the 1893 hurricane.
In recent months, a fuller picture has begun to emerge of Hog Island, which was created by the westward drift of the sea and sand. In the 1870's, owners of bathhouses and restaurants on the mainland found that their shore was no longer an ocean beach because of this new barrier island. Bitter lawsuits erupted over ownership of the island, especially between two Irishmen, who became known as the ''Everlasting Litigants,'' Mr. Lucev said.
''They settled it by drawing a line straight out into the water from the mainland,'' Mr. Lucev said.
Hog Island -- actually a peninsula also known as Far Rockaway Beach -- prospered. In 1917, Alfred H. Bellot wrote in ''History of the Rockaways'' that Hog Island, and especially the establishment run by Patrick Craig, had become the 1890's version of the Hamptons: ''Many conferences of great import to New York City took place in this out-of-doors annex to Tammany Hall, and it was at this time that the village was called familiarly in certain political circles, the Irish Saratoga.''
But everything changed on the night of Aug. 23, 1893. What the newspapers described as a hurricane, cyclone or gale, which had moved from south of Norfolk, Va., to New York in 12 hours, lasted through the morning and devastated the area, flooding lower Manhattan and uprooting more than 100 trees in Central Park.
On Hog Island, the damage was estimated at $80,000. ''The pavilions on Hog Island were smashed and washed away,'' The New York Times reported. ''Several bathing-houses adjoining Caffery's Cosmopolitan Pavilion were washed out and broken in pieces.''
Hog Island was also the site a dramatic rescue, according to The Times. Patrick Craig and his wife and daughter were trapped inside their ''frail cabin'' on the island. ''Death seemed imminent either from the raging waves or the falling timber.'' But a man named Stephen Stillwagon swam to the mainland, returned to Hog Island in a boat and put the family inside: ''They were swamped twice, but pushed on until at last they were rewarded by seeing Mrs. Craig, with her little one in her arms, step upon solid earth out of the reach of the hungry sea.''
Diminished, Hog Island re-emerged a few times in the 1890's. Some tried to rebuild on it. After a couple of northeasters, however, Hog Island sank into the Atlantic in 1902.
Over the years, Hog Island became shrouded in myth among Rockaway seamen and old-timers, some of whom attributed magical powers to it. In the late 1930's, Mr. Lucev said, children from a Brooklyn orphanage walked at low tide onto the shoals where Hog Island used to be. The sea suddenly swept over them. Seven drowned.
''Every time a sandbar or shoal forms out there,'' Mr. Lucev said, ''every time a ship runs aground, we call it the ghost of Hog Island.''
Covering the Storm on Hog Island
At 8 P.M. on Wednesday, Aug. 23, the hurricane of 1893 blew into New York, and the race was on among the city's newspapermen. Which paper would inform and enthrall readers the next morning? Apparently, only one: The Brooklyn Daily Eagle. Judging from a random look at microfilm in the New York Public Library, which failed to note whether the copies were early or late editions, most sheets reported on the storm in their Friday editions.
The Times redeemed itself, however, with what looked like the most comprehensive coverage, with datelined articles from several spots in Westchester County, New Jersey, Long Island -- and Hog Island. Others barely mentioned the little island, if at all. But The Times devoted about 500 words to it in its Friday and Saturday issues, describing how Stephen Stillwagon had rescued Patrick Craig's family in ''a story of heroism.''
In Manhattan, The Times reported Friday, ''hundreds of chimneys were tossed down like playthings, and roofs were ripped off as if with a knife.'' Telegraph wires fell ''like cotton strings.''
Photos/Drawing: Hog Island, also known as Far Rockaway Beach, was a popular resort, especially for city politicians, in the late 1800's. Once a developer's dream, it sank in 1902. After the hurricane of 1893, what was left of the island shifted closer to shore, making it accessible by foot at low tide. In its short heyday, modest bathers flocked to its shores.

i have problem... to send parameter in click button to next screen...
on first screen im parsing data URL with JSON...
and im get some content (id, name, title, etc)
in next screen is UI data depence of "id" ,,, for second screen build(URL + id)
if build connection on event thread and get data Id on next screen... connection will block...
any one can solve my problem???

Hi @jaff,
I got two suggestions:
1. Treat this situation as a login page. User enters his/hers details and until the details are verified by the server, the user sees a 'please wait' screen/popup and then transferred to the main application screen with the user details.
2. Implement the second screen as a listener - The user will be redirected to the new screen but his/details will be updated only after the connection is done.
In both cases, the connection should not run on the event thread but on a different thread which will enable the user the basic device interactions: Back, Menu, etc'...
Hope that helps,

text: In the gay community, queens are feminine and often more emotional. Think about the moves that cook made with google maps and samsung and hopefully you will begin to see the light. then think about cook's move to kill steve's vision to avoid production of an ipad mini...steve saw the canabalization of iphone and ipad sales if an ipad mini was produced. but cook didn't listen, he spit on steve's observation on this product's fall out. next, cook killed the better high-resolution that all the prior apple products had. Now only the macbook offers the prior technology but it's still not an upgrade to prior year display resoltion. retina is not an upgrade, it's a set back due to faulty dim and dark screen issues that users are ticked about. you can't adjust the brightness to a high enough level to use them comfortably is the primary complaint. and the prices apple is charging is outrageous!!! ... For the quality and performance you get for your dollar. Dell and hpq offer better display resolution and samsung is hands down better than apple in literally every product category....tablets, phones and laptops. so apple is pretty much an ipod maker with alot of outdated other plastic overpriced junk.

Oven WHIRS
By Sara
from Tampa, FL
Comments about Whirlpool 30" Electric Wall Oven/Microwave Combo - Stainless Steel:
This appliance came as part of a builder package for a new home. The oven makes a very loud whirring sounds when it is on and it continues for a while after it has been used because it takes a long time to cool down. I'm in my mid-30s and have lived a number of places in my life and have never had an oven make that loud whirring sound. It's really annoying.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Beautiful to look at in the kitchen and a pleasure to use.
By Cindy
from Chandler, az
I love the Combo. Everything is easy to use. Works like a dream. My only complaint is the fan in them that runs during cooking and cooling is really, really noisy. My kitchen is a part of the gathering area.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Pick another brand
By Khristina
from Moncks Corner , SC
I wanted to give it a zero star! I replaced my old whirlpool with this model. They sure don't make them like they use to. It does not heat as well as my old one. Heating up everything takes longer. If you like making popcorn like we do forget about it. I had to go buy a counter microwave just to do that. The fan blow to long. It may look pretty but it does not function like it looks. The has gone done as the nightmare machine in my house.
It fits our needs
By Bob S
from Roselle, IL
I bought this because it fit my custom cabinet made for the predecessor model of the same item.
Great features and looks nice
By josetheplumber
from LA,CA
We bought this combo a few months ago and both work very well. The features included are exactly what we needed. The microwave heats quickly and the oven has been used several times to bake bread, which tasted great.

Whirlpool microwave/oven combo

Microwave/oven combo works great.The fan running after oven is turned off is annoying. If you use oven for a hour the fan will run to cool for a hour.
Very sleek design

Looks great, works terrible.
By jblackstone33
from Ohio
The combination looks great in the wall. Microwave works great. Oven is awful. We have cooked everything from frozen pizza, to brownies, to casseroles and NOTHING has cooked correctly. The top or bottom burn black and the middle does not cook. I have called customer service and they told me they would charge to come out and look at it. It is only 3 months old and it has been cooking like that since day 1!!!

POLICE in the region may be failing to do enough to help women who suffer repeat attacks from their partners, Labour has warned.
The party has raised the alarm after forces were unable to say how many cases of domestic violence were flagged up as "repeat incidents".
Other forces around England were able to answer the question – with one reporting that a staggering 34.6 per cent of victims had been beaten up previously.
Loading article content
Yvette Cooper, Labour's Shadow Home Secretary, said such information was crucial in allowing police to intervene early to "identify and help those most at risk".
Yet police in Durham, North Yorkshire and Northumbria all said they simply did not hold the data to answer the question. Labour said Cleveland did not respond at all.
The survey was released to coincide with the 'One Billion Rising' campaign – an international movement to encourage people to speak out against violence against women.
Ms Cooper said it was worrying that forces were unable to monitor domestic violence – "even if they are called by the same person, to the same address, to confront the same aggressor, time and time again".
She added: "Freedom of information data from police forces reveals that up to a third of domestic incidents recorded by the police are classified "repeat" incidents.
"Some police forces and local councils do a great job working together and some are piloting early intervention schemes to identify and help those most at risk.
"But more forces need to be doing this – and they need to be collecting the data."
But some of the region's forces hit back, insisting tackling domestic violence was a major priority.
A Durham spokesman suggested Labour's FoI request had been refused on the grounds of cost, adding: "Investigations into incidents focus on putting the victim first.
"We work with a number of agencies to tackle domestic violence and, over the last few years, a range of measures have been put in place to protect victims at the earliest possible stage.".
Cleveland insisted it did have the ability to identify what proportion of domestic violence incidents involved repeat victims.
A spokeswoman added: "We have an initiative in Hartlepool, in which officers visit repeat victims with support workers.
"If this initiative proves to be successful, then it may be rolled out across the rest of the force."
The North Yorkshire force was asked to comment on its statement to Labour, stating that data on repeat incidents was not available, but did not respond.
In total, 11 forces provided data to Labour, ten – including three in the North-East and North Yorkshire – were unable to do so and the remaining 21 did not respond at all.
Domestic violence calls to the police account for one in ten of all 999 calls - and, in some areas, are as high as one in five.

I was looking for a script that allows me to deselect a radio button. I found one on SO and implemented it here...
As you can see it's working great but only when you click on the radio button itself. (You can also "select" a button by clicking on its corresponding
 text. This is how the
 operates by default.)
However, I also need to be able to "deselect" a radio button by only clicking on its corresponding
, and this is where I need some help.
(Why? Because I'm using a plugin that graphically alters the look of the radio button using an image sprite contained within the
 that covers over the default radio buttons. There is a line within my jsFiddle you can activate to see the plugin in action.)
I'm sure I just need to tweak this script a bit but I cannot seem to get it correct. I believe I just need to "select" the
 while manipulating the corresponding radio button. A
 is "attached" to a button by placing the
id of the button in the
for attribute of the corresponding
$(document).ready(function() {
$('input[name="amount"]').mousedown(function(e) { // allows radio button deselection
var $self = $(this);
if ($self.is(':checked')) {
var uncheck = function() {
setTimeout(function() {
}, 0);
var unbind = function() {
$self.unbind('mouseup', up);
var up = function() {
$self.bind('mouseup', up);
$self.one('mouseout', unbind);

NATO to Investigate as Troops Kill Three Civilians in Helmand
NATO Says Civilians Died During Combat
NATO says it is "looking into" the circumstances through which its troops accidentally killed three civilians and wounded another during "combat operations" in Afghanistan's Helmand Province.
NATO's report on the incident provided no additional details of how the deaths happened, but it appears to have happened in the Sangin District, which US troops recent took control of after years under British occupation.
Tensions between US and British troops have grown over their different styles of handling Sangin, with US troops complaining the British weren't aggressive enough and British troops saying the US was making too many enemies in the region.
Recently released Pentagon statistics have showed that the number of civilians being killed by US troops have risen considerably since Gen. David Petraeus took control over the Afghan War. His predecessor, Gen. Stanley McChrystal, made numerous not-entirely-successful efforts to reduce the civilian toll, efforts which led to complaints that he was harming troop morale.

Skip to comments.Pope says some science shatters human dignity
Posted on 01/31/2008 1:34:58 PM PST by NYer
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Pope Benedict said on Thursday that embryonic stem cell research, artificial insemination and the prospect of human cloning had "shattered" human dignity.
In an address to members of the Vatican department on doctrinal matters, Benedict said the Church had a duty to defend the "great values at stake" in the field of bioethics.
The speech was the latest in a series in which the conservative Pope has told his listeners that scientific progress should not be accepted uncritically.
Benedict, who headed the same department for years before his election in 2005, said the Church was not against scientific progress but wanted it based on "ethical-moral principles."
He said this included total respect for the human being as a person "from conception until natural death," and respect for the natural transmission of life through sexual intercourse.
Practices like freezing embryos, suppression of embryos in multiple pregnancies, embryonic stem cell research, the prospect of human cloning and artificial insemination outside the body had "shattered the barriers meant to protect human dignity," he said.
"When human beings in the weakest and most defenseless state of their existence are selected, abandoned, killed or used as pure 'biological material,' how can one deny that they are being treated not as 'someone' but as 'something,"' he said.
Such practices "questioned the very concept of the dignity of man," he said in the speech to the department known as the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.
Widespread interest in medicine by the general public, who get most of their information from the media, had made it even more imperative for the Church to take a stand, he said.
Embryonic stem cell research involves the destruction of embryos. Scientists hope to use stem cells to transform medicine, providing regenerative treatments for injuries and seeking new insights into diseases like cancer and AIDS.
Last year scientists reported they had tricked ordinary skin cells into behaving like embryonic stem cells.
The Pope said the Church "appreciates and encourages" research on stem cells that come from other parts of the body and do not involve embryos or their destruction.
He rejected accusations from critics who say the Church is an obstacle to science and human progress, saying growing concern about cloning and other practices showed it was right to raise the alarm.
It was the Pope's latest foray into scientific issues. On Monday he warned against the "seductive" powers of science, saying it was important that science did not become the sole criteria for goodness.
U.S. Cardinal William Levada, Benedict's successor as head of the doctrinal department, said it was mulling the possibility of preparing a new Vatican document on bioethical issues.
Take plain 'ole genetics, for instance. So many behavioral and personality aspects and characteristics are being treated as based on genetics or epigenetics. And then there are chemicals from diets and malformed body parts (organs, glands, etc.). On one level, those things probably do influence personality, behavior, temperment, etc., but there's danger in ascribing everything to chemical reactions.
There's more to humanity than hormones and neurotransmitters.
It's my personal belief that man will cross the red line one day with all this human cloning stuff and that is when the end of the world will be.
No one, not even the Pope, knows the meaning of the word 'dignity' but we use it all the time. Some kind of verbal ornament.
Raw science does not shatter human dignity. What people do with it does though. How they go about practicing it can also do it.
Bob Dylan wrote a song about it.
Bob knows.
Help us out. What IS dignity?
Bob knows a lot more than he lets on.
Mankind crossed a line when Satan tempted with the words "ye shall be as Gods." They were cast out of Paradise.
Clearly, to play God would be to place the future of your soul at risk. The Pope is in the business of delivering as many of these souls to Paradise as possible. Therefore, we should not play God, we should not fiddle around with God's Creation in such a manner, and the Church's teaching on abortion/euthanasia/contraception/embryonic stem cells is so clear in this area, it baffles me that more people do not understand it.
Of course, there are those who do not worry about the fate of their soul, because they do not believe. I pray that God tears down the imperfect walls these people have constructed around their hardened hearts (I say imperfect, because humans aren't perfect, and God will find a way to bring your walls down).
Sorry, but your definitions although multitudinous are not even in the ballpark except for #6 which indicates the direction for further research.
First of all, I'm against all government research that has no direct military applications. That said...
What exactly does it mean to "play God"? Change what God made? Last time I checked that's how humans thrive, changing their surroundings. Why is changing ourselves such a huge leap?
If I can't have a child the 'natural' way, I'm glad science can help. If I have a genetic defect that takes a pill to cure, why wouldn't I take it. If I can have my heart cloned when the ticker is running out on the one I have, why wouldn't I do it? Because it's 'playing God'? All I see is another excuse for some people to tell others how to live their lives. If no ones individual rights are being violated then no one has the right to tell another what to do.
Tell us. What does "dignity" mean? Or are you proposing that it has no meaning: ain't no such thing?
No, I will not tell. It is used in various learned works where the meanings given as above have no meaning whatsoever. It shall remain a secret sign of recognition among the seekers.
I'm not saying that all science or all pharmacy is playing God. I have a degree in Chemistry myself. What I am saying is that we as human beings should not control life in such a way. If we attempt to concieve, it is God's will if it happens. Otherwise, adoption is a very noble thing. And concerning death, God will call us home when He decides. Natural conception to natural death, that is God's way.
In these cases, no one seems to care whether or not the unborn's rights are being violated. Or whether or not people considered to be in a "vegetative state" are having their rights violated.
God bless the Pope. Ave Maria.
In a lot of ways, the punishment of man's sin is found in the sin itself. i.e., I don't think there's one single line in the sand that will precipitate the end. But the continuing dehumanization and collateralization of life will lead to greater and greater acts of inhumanity and atrocity as societal "norms".
Some may argue that the 20th century may never be paralleled in the kind of worldwide savagery that spanned two world wars, the concentration camps, the gulags, S.E. Asia, Africa, etc. But those were all atrocities committed during war, power consolidation, and general upheaval. We're talking about normal, "civilized" society with a scoreboard of aborted babies that would make your run of the mill political tyrant blush. When Hitler experimented on human beings, it was ghastly. When society demands it today, it's "progress". That's the qualitative difference: The 20th century featured perverted, heartless individuals; today we have a perverted, heartless society. That's the price of sin, and God doesn't have to lift a finger for us to suffer unspeakable punishment.
God Bless the Pope.
Dignity, in the religious sense, is the irrevocable quality of man being made in the image of God (i.e., infused with a soul). Nothing a man does can forfeit his right to be treated with this dignity in mind because the soul is ever-present. Thus what one does to the least among us, they do that unto God Himself, as well.
Just sayin'.
If you don't define an embryo as an individual, your position makes sense. However, those who do define an embryo as an individual react appropriately to the notion of "harvesting", "manipulating", or "engineering" them for the end of making life more comfortable for someone else, followed by their unceremonious disposal down a sink, or what-have-you.
That's actually not bad at all. The meaning I am looking at applies to other things than man as well as to man. There is no doubt we have dignity and probably a lot more than we commonly think.
He's warning you!!!
Now, you're just being coy.
Let's see what Bob says
Fat man lookin' in a blade of steel
Thin man lookin' at his last meal
Hollow man lookin' in a cottonfield
For dignity
Wise man lookin' in a blade of grass
Young man lookin' in the shadows that pass
Poor man lookin' through painted glass
For dignity
Somebody got murdered on New Year's Eve
Somebody said dignity was the first to leave
I went into the city, went into the town
Went into the land of the midnight sun
Searchin' high, searchin' low
Searchin' everywhere I know
Askin' the cops wherever I go
Have you seen dignity?
Blind man breakin' out of a trance
Puts both his hands in the pockets of chance
Hopin' to find one circumstance
Of dignity
I went to the wedding of Mary-lou
She said ÒI don't want nobody see me talkin' to you
Said she could get killed if she told me what she knew
About dignity
I went down where the vultures feed
I would've got deeper, but there wasn't any need
Heard the tongues of angels and the tongues of men
Wasn't any difference to me
Chilly wind sharp as a razor blade
House on fire, debts unpaid
Gonna stand at the window, gonna ask the maid
Have you seen dignity?
Drinkin' man listens to the voice he hears
In a crowded room full of covered up mirrors
Lookin' into the lost forgotten years
For dignity
Met Prince Phillip at the home of the blues
Said he'd give me information if his name wasn't used
He wanted money up front, said he was abused
By dignity
Footprints runnin' cross the silver sand
Steps goin' down into tattoo land
I met the sons of darkness and the sons of light
In the bordertowns of despair
Got no place to fade, got no coat
I'm on the rollin' river in a jerkin' boat
Tryin' to read a note somebody wrote
About dignity
Sick man lookin' for the doctor's cure
Lookin' at his hands for the lines that were
And into every masterpiece of literature
for dignity
Englishman stranded in the blackheart wind
Combin' his hair back, his future looks thin
Bites the bullet and he looks within
For dignity
Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed
Dignity never been photographed
I went into the red, went into the black
Into the valley of dry bone dreams
So many roads, so much at stake
So many dead ends, I'm at the edge of the lake
Sometimes I wonder what it's gonna take
To find dignity

What about man as being just a little lower than the angels instead of being just a smart ape?
It's in there. We have more dignity than we usually know. To act like we have dignity, I don't know, since we have dignity anyway. We're in the image all right, but that doesn't mean copy. We have our own thing going.
Don't know about that. It's a little outside things we can form judgments of.
>> No one, not even the Pope, knows the meaning of the word dignity but we use it all the time. Some kind of verbal ornament.
If no one knows the meaning of 'dignity', then 'what' are you declaring it undefined?
We don't know the meaning of most of the words we use as if we know, but considering that we learned this stuff when we were five or younger and learned it from other five year olds and never bother to look up these words since we already know them, we have the five year old understanding of the words.
If being human is a prerequisite to being no one, I was just curious if you were supernatural, an android, or maybe HAL — just bustin'.
The philosophicac formulation is whether man differs from the animals in kind or by kind. The intellect, with which man seems uniquely endowed, can be thougtht of as analogous to the emphant's trunk—a devise that helps us survive.— or something that transcends the physical world.
Sorry, ..."by degree of by kind. "
I doubt that Pope Benedict's advisors have explained to him that one of the developments from "tricking skin cells into becoming stem cells" is that now two men will be able to have a baby.
Scientists will be able to "trick" one man's skin cell into becoming an egg, which can then be fertilized with another man's sperm.
Or, likewise, a woman's skin cell could be "tricked" into becoming a sperm cell, so that two women will be able to have a child.
So basically what you're saying is that we should give up medicine all together? If you're not saying that (and I'm sure you're not) then how do you decide what's appropriate medical treatments? Is chemo against God? (a lot of cancer is natural) Life support?
No, I'm not saying we should give up medicine altogether. I thought I was being pretty clear when I limited my objections to embryonic stem cell research.
I think you might be trying to picture me as one of those wacky "medicine is the devil" type evangelicals. I'm just a good Catholic. My best friend is a pharmacist, and his wife is also a pharmacist. Medicine is a wonderful thing. It has transformed this world, especially in the last hundred years or so. It has lengthened life spans and found cures for terrible afflictions.
My point is that we must choose an ethical path. We cannot destroy life in order to save it. We cannot choose who gets to live and who gets to die. We are not God. We should do whatever we can to save ALL life.
That's a good observation. We've come to systematically disregard our neighbor's dignity, now we don't even recognize it in ourselves...
That would make a good tagline.
I disagree. I know what human dignity is, and it ain't some kind of "verbal ornament."
Speaking of, Scientific America seems to be trying to trick us into thinking that the pope is against science.
If you know what it is, use it in a sentence. :)
What is science?
What is ethics?
What is a tool?
What is a devil?
God conferred dignity upon mankind in making him imago Dei, in His image and reflection; that is, by endowing him with reason and free will. It is this divinely-conferred dignity that justifies the Bible's teaching that God regards each and every human person as sacred. Each of us is called do the same.Will that do?
It will do if you are happy with it. You are happy with it, aren't you?
I am completely satisfied with it, because I believe it is the absolute Truth.
The problem the atheist has, though it goes unacknowledged, is that without God there is no foundation for human thought, no firm Rock on which to stand.
Well, happiness and satisfaction are different things, but to some degree either will do in this imperfect world. Free will is dignity. Interesting. Concepts have dignity, too, but without free will.
How can a concept have dignity? On what basis?
Concepts are the products of free will -- of a free, unfettered intellect (reason, the other endowment of dignity). If a concept was not born in this way, then it's just an empty slogan, so much propaganda.
Can't read Kant without getting this.
I don't always agree with Kant.

Why was this special dividend never been announced before?
Because it was a secret!
Maybe EXC did not want a run-up going into the completion of the merger. It could also just be what EXC shareholders got as their part of the merger deal. Either way I'll take it. VERY NICE!

Injuries, Most Minor, Dog Phils Yesterday, It Was Mariano Duncan's Right Hamstring. He Intends To Keep Playing.
June 21, 1993
By Frank Fitzpatrick, INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
For nearly two months, the people feeling pain were their National League East opponents. Suddenly, though, a Phillie seems to get nicked or bruised in every game. Yesterday's victim du jour was Mariano Duncan, who hurt his right hamstring on John Kruk's game-winning homer and had to be replaced by Joe Millette. "When I was between second and third I felt it," Duncan said. Phils manager Jim Fregosi said Duncan would be examined today, but the shortstop said he did not plan on missing any time.
Phillies Re-sign Mariano Duncan Big Pay Cut Comes With 1-year Deal
April 14, 1995
By Frank Fitzpatrick, INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
Mariano Duncan - embarrassed, according to his agent, by a contract that could pay him nearly $2 million less than 1994 - signed a one-year minor- league deal with the Phillies yesterday for $350,000 plus $200,000 in incentives. "He really does a lot for your club," said Phils general manager Lee Thomas. "He can play a lot of positions. He's an offensive threat. And he's really a real, real good person to have in the clubhouse. " The signing of Duncan, 32, a free-agent whose '94 Phillies contract was for $2.2 million, came less than a week after Thomas said strike-imposed finances made it virtually impossible that he would be back in Philadelphia.
Morandini Again Hears The Sound Of Footsteps Mariano Duncan Is Pushing Morandini For The Starting Job At Second.
March 6, 1992
By Frank Fitzpatrick, INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
On a stationary bike near Mickey Morandini's locker, Mariano Duncan is pedaling hard. The little second baseman doesn't turn to watch his new teammate. Duncan may be gaining on him. Once again, Morandini has been told not to worry, the job is his. Excuse him if he feels like an American autoworker. The job was his to win last spring, too. And he won it. Former Phillies manager Nick Leyva rewarded him with a ticket to Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Jim Fregosi arrived, recalled Morandini, and made him his second baseman.
Phillies Fall Into The Cellar With A 6-5 Loss To The Padres They Have Lost 4 Of 5 On This Road Trip. "It Really Hurts To Play Like This," Says Mariano Duncan.
April 25, 1994
By Frank Fitzpatrick, INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
Just a few hundred feet from the site of Milt Thompson's memorable catch last April 29, Mariano Duncan's bases-loaded bouncer kicked off shortstop Luis Lopez's glove. If it had rolled any distance at all, the game would have been tied. Instead, it - and the Phillies' comeback hopes - died in the dirt, inches from second base. Bip Roberts retrieved it, stepped on second and threw to first, easily ahead of a desperately diving Duncan. The odd double play preserved a 6-5 San Diego victory and gave the Padres a weekend sweep of the reeling Phils.
Phillies Whip Giants To End 5-game Skid The Team Was Coming Off A Miserable Road Trip. So Was Mariano Duncan, Who Drove In Four Runs Last Night, Three With A Homer. The Phils Won, 6-3.
April 30, 1994
By Sam Carchidi, INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
When the Phillies' recent West Coast trip started, second baseman Mariano Duncan was battling the flu. When the trip ended, he was battling a slump. Last night, Duncan's hitting funk ended. And so did the Phillies' five-game losing streak. Duncan, who was 1 for 18 on the road trip, ripped two doubles and a three- run homer and knocked in four runs as the Phillies defeated the struggling San Francisco Giants, 6-3, before 30,977 spectators at Veterans Stadium. Duncan, who reached base in all four of his at-bats, raised his average from .203 to .236 and supported the solid pitching of his good friend Ben Rivera, who put together his best outing of the season.
Dykstra Returns, But He's Still Hurting
June 26, 1995
by Paul Hagen, Daily News Sports Writer
Phillies centerfielder Lenny Dykstra was activated before Saturday's game, but is clearly still not playing at 100 percent. Manager Jim Fregosi said that conditioning may be as big a problem at the moment as the sore lower back that landed Dykstra on the disabled list in the first place. "He's going to have to play himself into shape," Fregosi said. "He's very sore. Everywhere. " Dykstra has one hit in nine at-bats since coming back, but he has also walked twice, stolen a base, scored two runs and chased down several fly balls in the two games.
Morandini, Phils Come To Terms For $750,000
January 21, 1994
by Paul Hagen, Daily News Sports Writer
The history of salary arbitration is that most players who file settle before their cases reach a hearing. Form held in the case of Phillies second baseman Mickey Morandini yesterday. Two days after teams and players exchanged numbers, he agreed to a one-year contract that will pay him $750,000 plus award bonuses. The settlement was close to the midpoint between the $850,000 Morandini sought and the $625,000 the club offered. Morandini's base salary was $300,000 last year.
Appendectomy Shelves Dykstra
June 23, 1994
by Paul Hagen, Daily News Sports Writer
The Phillies have played most of the past week without sparkplug Lenny Dykstra in the lineup. They will have to get used to it. Before umpire Bob Davidson even called his first balk at Three Rivers Stadium last night, Dykstra had left for Philadelphia, where he was diagnosed as having appendicitis. He underwent surgery last night and is expected to miss two to three additional weeks. Dykstra, who has been out of the starting lineup for seven of the last eight games because of a strained right quadriceps muscle, apparently began experiencing the pain after he left the ballpark following Tuesday night's 7-1 loss to the Pirates.
Duncan Placed On Dl; Bottalico Is Called Up
July 29, 1994
by Paul Hagen, Daily News Sports Writer
The Phillies placed third baseman Mariano Duncan on the 15-day disabled list with a strained hamstring. That was expected. Taking his place on the roster will be 24-year-old righthander Ricky Bottalico, called up yesterday from Double A Reading. That wasn't. The assumption all along had been that if Duncan went on the DL, the Phillies would bring up infielder Kevin Jordan from Triple A Scranton/ Wilkes- Barre. The assumption was strengthened by the fact that as soon as Duncan was hurt last Saturday night, the Red Barons switched Jordan from second base to third.
Duncan Makes Most Of Phils' Winter Ball Like Everyone Else, He Shivered. But He Also Delivered Three Hits And Four Rbis.
April 5, 1994
By Jayson Stark, INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
In theory, it should not have been a Mariano Duncan kind of day. Snow falling. Winds swirling. Temperatures plummeting. Teeth chattering. Not to mention a righthander pitching. It might have been a day made for some guy from Saskatchewan. It might have been a day made for some guy named Snow (J.T.?). It definitely wasn't a day made for a guy named Mariano from San Pedro de Macoris, the Dominican Republic. But yesterday at Mile High Stadium, on a day when baseball weather turned into bobsled weather, Mariano Duncan had himself an opening day he will never forget.

Bill Conlin: Phillies, Dodgers have a history
October 15, 2009
BEFORE THERE WAS Black Friday - Oct. 7, 1977 - the Phillies endured Soggy Saturday and Sunless Sunday. Sunday was the day general manager Paul Owens and manager Danny Ozark learned the real difference between a team that would win 101 games for the second straight season and a Los Angeles Dodgers team of similar talents. It was the day the words "bleeping Dodgers" were hurled in scatalogical volleys with shortstop Larry Bowa leading a profane chorus. They were in LA for a three-game weekend series.
Bob Ford: Momentum on Phillies' side
October 18, 2008
By Bob Ford, Inquirer Columnist
If you believe a team needs to have some experience in the World Series before it can win there - a proposition not supported by the facts, by the way - then the Phillies are a quart low in that regard. Quick question: Who is the only member of the Phils' postseason roster to have a World Series base hit during his career? If you answered So Taguchi, you are right. You are also a bit obsessive. The better answer is: So What? Will the Phillies stop playing baseball at the next level because they become hypoxic, like mountaineers who ascend from base camp without their oxygen bottles?
Mark Whicker: Dodgers' Colletti, Duncan miss old friend Vukovich
October 15, 2008
ABOUT 4 HOURS before Game 1 in Philadelphia, Ned Colletti found Mariano Duncan in the Dodgers clubhouse. They walked up some steps and onto a concourse, and headed to centerfield. They were off to see Vuke. Colletti is the Dodgers' general manager, who worked his way up from handing out press releases at Wrigley Field. Duncan played on the '93 Phillies and is the first-base coach. They were among the multitudes who shared baseball space, and thus their lives, with John Vukovich, the Phillies' third-base coach and conscience, who died in March 2007.
Pitching: He was pumped - maybe too pumped.
October 11, 2008
By Mike Jensen, Inquirer Staff Writer
Russell Martin, the second Dodgers batter, up there against Brett Myers in the first inning of yesterday's National League Championship Series Game 2, went to the ground, fleeing the fastball about to pass in front of his chin. Myers wasn't so close to the next hitter. His pitch to Manny Ramirez didn't scare the Dodgers slugger. Of course, it did go behind Ramirez, hopping off the backstop at Citizens Bank Park. "We all know how aggressive he wants to be, and how pumped up he gets," Dodgers manager Joe Torre said of Myers, admitting the pitch did raise his eyebrow, especially since it already was hard for his batters to see due to the 4:35 p.m. start time.
Eisenreich still making big contribution
October 10, 2008
By MARK KRAM, email@example.com
Reprinted from yesterday's Daily News: IN A TIP of the cap to the 1993 Phillies, who came oh-so-close to winning the World Series, the club has summoned an integral part of that team, Jim Eisenreich, to toss out the ceremonial first pitch before Game 2 of the National League Championship Series tomorrow. Regrettably, Eisenreich will be sitting with his 10-year old son in the stands and not down at the end of the bench, where he would be a welcomed addition given the way he always clobbered Dodgers pitching.
Wade Backs Off Trade Talk Gm Doesn't Want Players To Feel Deserted In Wild-card Race
July 23, 1998
by Paul Hagen, Daily News Sports Writer
It was August 1995. The Phillies were in a wild-card race. Or, at least, the players thought they were. So when popular veteran role player Dave Gallagher and respected second baseman Mariano Duncan were traded on back-to-back days, the response in the clubhouse was a predictable mixture of shock and outrage. It is with that in mind, perhaps, that general manager Ed Wade conceded yesterday that he just might pass on a trade between now and the trading deadline at midnight one week from tomorrow that would have looked more attractive a month or two ago. "I think we might have to think a little harder," Wade said before last night's 14-2 loss to the Braves.
Ozzie Denies He's Coming Out Of Retirement

Daily News Wire Services
A St. Louis radio station reported yesterday that Ozzie Smith is negotiating to play baseball again. But another broadcast report quoted Smith as saying it's just not true. KSHE-FM said Smith is negotiating with a National League team other than the Cardinals, the team he helped lead to three pennants in the 1980s. The station did not say which team. Cardinals spokesman Brian Bartow said the KSHE report was the first he heard of the rumor, and confirmed the Cardinals are not negotiating with Smith.
Teams Fill Holes In Lineups Ahead Of The Trading Deadline The Angels Got Pitcher Ken Hill. And Harold Baines Is An Oriole Again.

The Anaheim Angels added pitching, the Baltimore Orioles added hitting and the Texas Rangers and New York Yankees shed a couple of big salaries yesterday in trades made a day before the major-league deadline. In order to trade players after midnight tomorrow, teams will first have to obtain waivers on them. Anaheim, battling Seattle in the American League West and the Yankees in the AL wild-card race, got pitcher Ken Hill from Texas for catcher Jim Leyritz and a player to be named.
For Morandini, No Wanderlust He Is Not A Yankee, A Dodger Or An Indian, At Least Not Yet. And That's Fine With Him.

If trade rumors provided anything more than juicy winter baseball copy, Mickey Morandini would be across the bay in Tampa right now, battling an old rival, Mariano Duncan, for the Yankees' starting job at second base. Either that or he'd be in Vero Beach, settling in with the Dodgers, or in Winter Haven with the Indians. Yes, Morandini's name came up often this winter. But when camp opened last week, the 30-year-old second baseman was right back where he has always been - with the Phillies.
Al Lit Up, Phils Lit Into By Utility Man Duncan ``those Guys Really Gave Up On The Season. . . . I Knew They Still Had A Chance To Win The Wild Card.''

Check those American League statistics closely. The ex-Phillie who isn't as good as Kevin Jordan is among the hitting leaders with a .363 average. He's playing almost every day. His team is in first place. And even when the ex-Phillie who isn't as good as Kevin Jordan committed five errors in two games here, he remained extremely happy - pleased with his new team, but still a little perplexed about his old one. "I'm so happy to be in New York," Mariano Duncan said, "but I'm still disappointed about what happened in Philly.

WEIRD WEDNESDAY: Signage Spelling Scandal!
In the small town of Webster, MA, the locals are getting rather frustrated. One of the major tourist attractions is getting plenty of attention, but for all the wrong reasons. Webster Lake, better known as Lake Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg, which is located near the Connecticut border, has the distinction of claiming the longest place name in the United States.
Unfortunately, some of the road signs pointing to the landmark contain spelling mistakes, which could compromise the tourist trade. After all, what's the good of being photographed next to a sign with spelling mistakes?
According to the Wikipedia entry,
The translation of the name of the lake is believed to be, "Fishing Place at the Boundaries — Neutral Meeting Grounds." Spelling of the long name varies, even on official signs near the lake; in 2009, following six years of press reports, the local Chamber of Commerce agreed to have the spelling corrected on its signs, where a 45-letter version of the name arrayed in a semicircle was used. It did not correspond to any of the two dozen variants. (See photo above–correct or incorrect?)
For the record, the official correct spelling is either Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg or the 49-letter option: Chargoggagoggmanchauggauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg.
