From Xfce - About:
- Xfce embodies the traditional UNIX philosophy of modularity and re-usability.

What is Xfce?
Xfce is a Desktop Environment, like GNOME or KDE. It contains a suite of apps like a root window app, window manager, file manager, panel, etc. Xfce is written using the GTK2 toolkit, and contains its own development environment (libraries, daemons, etc), similar to other big DEs.
- It's fast; faster than the other major DEs.
- It's stable. In the long time Xfce-4 has been out, only a relatively small handful of bugs has been discovered, despite it having a rather large following.
- It's pretty. It uses GTK2 and is themable. You can make Xfce look very nice.
- It works great with multiple monitors. Xfce's Xinerama support is arguably the best out of any WM/DE.
- It doesn't get in your way. You'll find Xfce helps your work flow, rather than always making itself "present."
- It comes with a built-in compositor which allows for true transparency, among other cool things.
Xfce is somewhat modular. That means there is no need for you to run every part, you can pick and choose some of them. Because of this, Xfce has some separate Arch packages.
Installing Xfce
To install the base Xfce system, run:
# pacman -S xfce4
Pacman will ask you to select the packages to install, you probably want to get them all by simply pressing enter.
# pacman -S xfwm4 xfce4-panel xfdesktop thunar xfce4-session xfce4-settings xfce4-appfinder xfce-utils xfconf
If you want extras, like panel plugins, run this:
# pacman -S xfce4-goodies
Like before, pacman will ask you which packages you want to install. If you wish to admire 'Tips and Tricks' on login, install the fortune-mod package:
# pacman -S fortune-mod
In order to get the xfce4-mixer to work with alsa, you need to install gstreamer0.10-base-plugins. (See below for help with OSS.)
# pacman -S gstreamer0.10-base-plugins
Installing and configuring the Daemons
Install dbus:
# pacman -S dbus
Install gamin (the successor of fam). It is configured to automatically run in the background by default, do not add it to rc.conf.
# pacman -S gamin
Running Xfce
Automatically at boot time
See Display Manager to install and configure a Display Manager. Be sure to configure it properly for PolicyKit.
You can execute:
$ startxfce4
from the console, or configure xinitrc and use xinit or startx.
If you have not created a ~/.xinitrc yet, do so with:
$ cp /etc/skel/.xinitrc ~/.xinitrc
and add the following line:
exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch --exit-with-session startxfce4
#!/bin/sh # # ~/.xinitrc # # Executed by startx (run your window manager from here) # exec gnome-session # exec startkde # exec startxfce4 # ...or the Window Manager of your choice exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch --exit-with-session startxfce4
dbus-launch starts a dbus-daemon instance to provide communication with PolicyKit.
ck-launch-session starts a clean consolekit session needed by Xfce for power management, automounting, shutting down/rebooting etc. ConsoleKit/PolicyKit capable display managers such as gdm do this for you automatically. Notice dbus-launch must be placed after ck-launch-session, or there will be problems when mounting disks.
Shutting down, rebooting, and automounting from within Xfce
- Make sure that dbus is enabled in the DAEMONS array in /etc/rc.conf.
- Make sure you are a member of the power group for shutting down and rebooting.
- Make sure you are a member of the storage group for automounting.
- Make sure that you are using
exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch --exit-with-session startxfce4in ~/.xinitrc or a ConsoleKit/PolicyKit capable display manager, such as GDM or SLiM. (see above)
How to customize xfce panel background
Edit ~/.gtkrc-2.0. Note that you must place the image in the same directory as the configuration, which is ~/. You can not specify the path to the image, or it won't work.
style "panel-background" { bg_pixmap[NORMAL] = "foo.bar" bg_pixmap[PRELIGHT] = "foo.bar" bg_pixmap[ACTIVE] = "foo.bar" bg_pixmap[SELECTED] = "foo.bar" bg_pixmap[INSENSITIVE] = "foo.bar" } widget_class "*Panel*" style "panel-background"
The "Ubuntu System Panel" (Gnome) panel applet has similar features to those found in its KDE v4.2 equivalent. It can be added to an Xfce panel via the 'XfApplet' panel applet, which allows Gnome applets to be used in Xfce.
It is available in the AUR
Method 1
With the built-in menu editor, you cannot remove menu entries from the System menu. Here's how to hide them:
- Open Terminal (Xfce menu > System > Terminal) and go to the /usr/share/applications folder:
$ cd /usr/share/applications
- This folder should be full of .desktop files. To see a list type:
$ ls
- Add NoDisplay=true to the .desktop file. For example, if you want to hide Firefox, type in the terminal:
$ sudo echo "NoDisplay=true" >> firefox.desktopThis command appends the text NoDisplay=true to the end of the .desktop file and saves the file
Method 2
Another method is to copy the entire contents of the global applications directory over to your local applications directory, and then proceed to modify and/or disable unwanted .desktop entries. This will survive application updates that overwrite changes under /usr/share/applications/.
- In a terminal, copy everything from /usr/share/applications to ~/.local/share/applications/:
$ cp /usr/share/applications/* ~/.local/share/applications/
- For any entry you wish to hide from the menu, add the NoDisplay=true option:
$ echo "NoDisplay=true" >> ~/.local/share/applications/foo.desktop
You can also edit the application's category by editing the .desktop file with a text editor and modifying the Categories= line.
I've found some shortcuts that show in the category "Other" in this directory: ~/.local/share/applications/wine/.
Why doesn't my desktop refresh?
Xfce 4.6 uses FAM (File Alteration Monitor) or gamin (FAM's successor) to get notification when a file or directory changes. If you decide to use FAM, don't forget to add 'fam' to the list of DAEMONS in /etc/rc.conf. This step is not necessary for gamin.
NOTE: After recent updates, FAM may have issues opening some mounts, such as sshfs. Use gamin if this is the case.
Use a transparent background for desktop icon titles
To change the default white background of desktop icon titles to something more suitable, edit the .gtkrc-2.0 file in your home directory (or create the file if needed) and add the following:
style "xfdesktop-icon-view" { XfdesktopIconView::label-alpha = 10 base[NORMAL] = "#000000" base[SELECTED] = "#71B9FF" base[ACTIVE] = "#71FFAD" fg[NORMAL] = "#ffffff" fg[SELECTED] = "#71B9FF" fg[ACTIVE] = "#71FFAD" } widget_class "*XfdesktopIconView*" style "xfdesktop-icon-view"
Hide selected partitions on the desktop
If you wish to prevent certain partitions or drives appearing on the desktop, you can create a udev rule, for example Template:Filename:
KERNEL=="sda1", ENV{UDISKS_PRESENTATION_HIDE}="1" KERNEL=="sda2", ENV{UDISKS_PRESENTATION_HIDE}="1"
Would show all partitions with the exception of sda1 and sda2 on your desktop.
xfconf-query -c xfce4-desktop -v --create -p /desktop-icons/style -t int -s 0
App suggestions
A drop down console like in quake
# pacman -S tilda
will install tilda, a drop down console, similar to yakuake. A more lightweight alternative would be stjerm which can be found in the AUR.
To configure tilda, type
# tilda -C
which opens a configuration window in X.
Another functional alternative is guake, which is available in the community repo:
# pacman -S guake
How to enable the compositor in Xfce 4.6
Xfce 4.6 comes with a builtin compositor adding the option for fancy window effects, shadows and transparency and so on. It can be enabled in the Window Manager Tweaks and works on the fly. No additional settings are needed in your /etc/xorg.conf. To enable and adjust settings, go to:
Menu --> Settings --> Window Manager Tweaks
Persistent window placement per-app
Disable window roll-up
xfconf-query -c xfwm4 -p /general/mousewheel_rollup -s false
Commands for the settings manager
There is no official documentation for the commands executed. One must look at .desktop files /usr/share/applications/ folder. For the people who like to know exactly what is happening, here is a handy list to save the effort:
xfce-setting-show backdrop xfce-setting-show display xfce-setting-show keyboard xfce4-menueditor xfce-setting-show sound xfce-setting-show mouse xfce-setting-show session xfce-setting-show xfce-setting-show splash xfce-setting-show ui xfce-setting-show xfwm4 xfce-setting-show wmtweaks xfce-setting-show workspaces xfce-setting-show printing_system xfce4-appfinder xfce4-autostart-editor xfce4-panel -c
To review all the available setting manager commands run the following in a terminal:
$ grep xfce-setting-show /usr/share/applications/xfce*settings*
Customizing Startup Applications
This includes getting necessary environment variables into the GUI runtime.
- Copy the file /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc to ~/.config/xfce4/
- Edit this file. For example, you can add something like this somehwere in the middle:
source $HOME/.bashrc # start rxvt-unicode server urxvtd -q -o -f
Switch between users
It is possible to switch between X sessions thanks to xfswitch-plugin . It adds an icon to the Xfce panel, and requires gdm to work at the moment.
xfswitch-plugin is available through AUR
Modify XML settings files directly
It may be useful, especially when upgrading, to manually edit .xml files in the ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/ folder. For application keyboard shortcuts for example, the file is ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts.xml. It's faster to copy and paste the XML keys that you want rather than using the GUI.
How to add themes to XFCE
1. Go to xfce-look.org and click "Themes" in the left navbar. Look around for a theme you want and click "Download".
2. Go to the directory where you downloaded the tarball/file and extract it using Squeeze/Xarchiver/CLI.
3. Move the extracted folder to /usr/share/themes (for all users) or ~/.themes (for just you). Inside /usr/share/themes/abc, there is a folder that you create called xfwm4 that will contain whatever files that is included with that theme.
4. GTK theme is available here:
Menu --> Settings --> Appearance
You select your xfwm theme in:
Menu --> Settings --> Window Manager
By default, X uses a plain black cursor. If you have alternative X cursor themes installed, Xfce can find them with:
Menu --> Settings --> Mouse --> Theme
To install new cursor themes, install Template:Package Official or another Template:Package Official package, or see X11 Cursors.
If you find the standard fonts rather thick and or slightly out of focus open Settings>Appearence click on the Fonts tab and under Hinting: change to Full
You could also try using a custom DPI setting.
How do I get xfce4-mixer and OSS4 to work together?
Xfce 4.6 uses gstreamer as the backend to control volume, so first you have to make gstreamer cooperate with xfce4-mixer.
pacman -S xfce4-mixer gstreamer0.10-base-plugins
(Optional) Second, try to install gstreamer0.10-good-plugins, gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins
pacman -S gstreamer0.10-good-plugins gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins
login and logout, or just remove the mixer plugin and add it again. If it doesn't work at all, then you have to compile gstreamer0.10-good-plugins yourself. and can
Download the PKGBUILD and other files needed from ABS or here, edit the PKGBUILD, add --enable-oss.
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --enable-oss\ --disable-static --enable-experimental \ --enable-ladspa \ --with-package-name="GStreamer Good Plugins (Arch Linux)" \ --with-package-origin="http://www.archlinux.org/" || return 1
and then run makepkg -i.
makepkg -i
Still not working? Try tis package in AUR gstreamer0.10-good-plugins-ossv4, modify the pkgver to the newest in the PKGBUILD, and it should work.
Other LINKS: OSS forum
Go to
Settings --> Keyboard
Click the "Application Shortcuts" tab and add click the "Add" button. Add the following by entering the command, then pressing the corresponding button at the next window:
For the raise volume button:
amixer set Master 5%+
For the lower volume button:
amixer set Master 5%-
For the mute button:
amixer set Master toggle
You can also run these commands to set the above commands to the standard XF86Audio keys:
xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p /commands/custom/XF86AudioRaiseVolume -n -t string -s "amixer set Master 5%+" xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p /commands/custom/XF86AudioLowerVolume -n -t string -s "amixer set Master 5%-" xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p /commands/custom/XF86AudioMute -n -t string -s "amixer set Master toggle"
If Template:Codeline does not work, try the PCM channel (Template:Codeline) instead.
The channel must have a "mute" option for the toggle command to work. To check whether or not your Master channel supports toggling mute, run Template:Codeline in a terminal and look for the double M's (MM) under the Master channel. If they are not present, then it does not support the mute option. If, for example, you had to change the toggle button to use the PCM channel, make sure to also set the PCM channel as the Mixer Track under Xfce Mixer properties.
Use one of these scripts: [http://www.opensound.com/wiki/index.php/Tips_And_Tricks#Using_multimedia_keys_with_OSS ]
If using ossvol (recommended), add:
ossvol -i 1
for the volume up button
ossvol -d 1
for the volume down button
ossvol -t
for the mute/unmute button
Using print-screen key
A simple way is to use a command-line screenshot utility:
# pacman -S scrot
XFCE Menu --> Settings --> Keyboard >>> Application Shortcuts.
Add the "scrot" command to use the "PrintScreen" key.
All screenshots will be placed in your home folder with unique names like
There is also an a screenshot plugin for the Xfce panel, which can be used instead of scrot, that is available in extra:
# pacman -S xfce4-screenshooter
You can add a keyboard binding for it using the command
xfce4-screenshooter -f
instead of "scrot". You'll get a dialog window after pressing "Print" where you can copy the image to the clipboard or save it.
Change mount options
A common problem when automounting USB sticks formatted with fat filesystem is the inability to properly show characters as umlauts, ñ, ß, etc. This may be solved changing the default iocharset to utf8, which is easily done adding a line to /etc/xdg/xfce4/mount.rc:
[vfat] uid=<auto> shortname=winnt utf8=true # FreeBSD specific option longnames=true
Note that when using utf-8, the system will distinct between upper- and lowercases, potentially corrupting your files. Be careful.
It is also recommendable to mount vfat devices with the flush option, so that when copying to usb sticks data flushes more often, thus making thunar's progress bar to stays up until things are on the disk.
[vfat] flush=true
Removable Devices
If you want an icon appearing on your desktop and in thunar when you plug in external devices, make sure gvfs is installed:
# pacman -S --needed gvfs
You could also need to install gvfs-afc (read this discussion):
# pacman -S gvfs-afc
It is also a good idea to install thunar-volman (included in the xfce4-goodies group):
# pacman -S thunar-volman
Terminal tango color theme
Open with your favorite editor
And add(replace) this lines:
ColorForeground=White ColorBackground=#323232323232 ColorPalette1=#2e2e34343636 ColorPalette2=#cccc00000000 ColorPalette3=#4e4e9a9a0606 ColorPalette4=#c4c4a0a00000 ColorPalette5=#34346565a4a4 ColorPalette6=#757550507b7b ColorPalette7=#060698989a9a ColorPalette8=#d3d3d7d7cfcf ColorPalette9=#555557575353 ColorPalette10=#efef29292929 ColorPalette11=#8a8ae2e23434 ColorPalette12=#fcfce9e94f4f ColorPalette13=#72729f9fcfcf ColorPalette14=#adad7f7fa8a8 ColorPalette15=#3434e2e2e2e2 ColorPalette16=#eeeeeeeeecec
Keyboard shortcuts aren't working
Under Xfce 4.6 there is a problem where the user's keyboard shortcuts will intermittently not work. This is usually the case when the settings helper is either not running or has been started improperly due to a conflict. This bug has been fixed in Xfce 4.8, which replaced 4.6 in the main repositories.
A workaround is to disable xfce4-settings-helper-autostart from autostarting in a user's session. The settings helper daemon will start upon loading an Xfce session, anyways. The following two steps seem to have resolved this issue.
Remove or rename the global autostart .desktop file:
mv /etc/xdg/autostart/xfce4-settings-helper-autostart.desktop /etc/xdg/autostart/xfce4-settings-helper-autostart.desktop.disabled
Remove or rename the local autostart .desktop file:
mv ~/.config/autostart/xfce4-settings-helper-autostart.desktop ~/.config/autostart/xfce4-settings-helper-autostart.desktop.disabled
After logging out and logging back in, your shortcut keys should be working fine now.
Thunar does not display any thumbnail
Thunar relies on Tumbler to generate thumbnails. You can install Tumbler by issuing
pacman -S tumbler
More details in Thunar's page.

In standard English, piccaninny is a derogatory word for a black child. In some dialects, specifically some Caribbean dialects, the word does not have the derogatory connotation and can even be a term of endearment, but this is not the case in standard English.
This word is a West Indian variation on the Portuguese pequenino, meaning boy or child and in older use meaning small or tiny. The Portuguese word is cognate with the Spanish pequeño. The word entered the West Indian vocabulary via Portuguese trading pidgins that were common in the Caribbean of the 17th century.
English use of the word dates to the mid-17th century. There is this from 1653, published in Notes & Queries in 1905, referring to workers, presumably slaves, in Barbados:
Some women, whose pickaninnies are three yeares old, will, as they worke at weeding...suffer the hee Pickaninnie, to sit astride upon their backs.
By the early 19th century, the term had spread to Australia and New Zealand where it was used to refer to Aboriginal and Maori children. From the Sydney Gazette of 4 January 1817:
Governor,—that will make good Settler—that's my Pickaninny!
And from J.L. Nicholas's Narrative of a Voyage to New Zealand, also from 1817:
This fellow...met me...telling me that Mrs. King had got a pickeeninnee, (a child,) he began to describe her groans...while...under the pains of labour.

Not to rag on about.com, but that article does not at all explain where the "i" in iPod or iMac came from.
It only gives theories and then rejects them, giving no credible alternative.
The idea that the i refers to "me" because it's personal isn't far fetched.
Also, what does "lach" mean in Yiddish?

From WIRED
The iPod name was offered up by Vinnie Chieco, a freelance copywriter who lives in San Francisco. Chieco was recruited by Apple to be part of a small team tasked with helping figure out how to introduce the new player to the general public, not just computer geeks.
During the process, Jobs had settled on the player's descriptive tag line -- "1,000 songs in your pocket" -- so the name was freed up from having to be descriptive. It didn't have to reference music or songs.
While describing the player, Jobs constantly referred to Apple's digital hub strategy: The Mac is a hub, or central connection point, for a host of gadgets. This prompted Chieco to start thinking about hubs: objects that other things connect to.
The ultimate hub, Chieco figured, would be a spaceship. You could leave the spaceship in a smaller vessel, a pod, but you'd have to return to the mother ship to refuel and get food. Then Chieco was shown a prototype iPod, with its stark white plastic front.
"As soon as I saw the white iPod, I thought 2001," said Chieco. "Open the pod bay door, Hal!"
Then it was just a matter of adding the "i" prefix, as in "iMac."
Chieco declined to mention any of the alternative names that were considered. A source at Apple confirmed Chieco's story.
Athol Foden, a naming expert and president of Brighter Naming of Mountain View, California, noted that Apple had already trademarked the iPod name for an internet kiosk, a project that never saw the light of day. On July 24, 2000, Apple registered the iPod name for "a public internet kiosk enclosure containing computer equipment," according to the filing.
Chieco said the internet kiosk is probably a coincidence. He suggested that maybe another team at Apple registered the name for a different project, but because of the company's penchant for secrecy, his team wasn't aware what the other had done. And neither, apparently, was Steve Jobs. Chieco said neither Jobs -- nor anyone else -- seemed aware that the company had already registered the iPod trademark.
"The name 'iPod' makes much more sense for an internet kiosk, which is a pod for a human, than a music player," said Foden.
"They discovered in their tool chest of registered names they had 'iPod,'" he added. "If you think about the product, it doesn't really fit. But it doesn't matter. It's short and sweet."
Foden said the name is a stroke of genius: It is simple, memorable and, crucially, it doesn't describe the device, so it can still be used as the technology evolves, even if the device's function changes. He noted the "i" prefix has a double meaning: It can mean "internet," as in "iMac," or it can denote the first person: "I," as in me.
While the "i" could mean, "I" as in first person, everyone routinely uses "i" to denote internet.
"lach" in Yiddish, as I wrotein the post above and provided the Wikipedia hyperlinked article, means diminutive plural.
- 1:24 PM, November 21, 2011
Um, you really think names like Bisli and Prili are not related to the customer's feeling of entitlement? Perhaps "My Computer" in Windows is a better example of self-centeredness than "iPod", but you're deluding yourself if you don't think much of contemporary advertising and culture revolves around that theme.
And while we're on the subject of dubious catchphrases used to promote good causes, I think "I-Pod" is a much better pun than the "Ama reika" (America) one that I keep hearing used to promote aliyah.
- 1:28 PM, November 21, 2011
- Jameel @ The Muqata said...
Shlomo: Bisli and Prili are fine -- that doesn't mean Israeli society is now rotten to the core, having left the values of kreplach.
Yes, Amareika is a stupid catchphrase to promote aliya.
Aliya doesn't need a catchphrase -- its a mitzva. The Rambam wrote: Living outside of Israel is like worshiping idols. He wasn't writing it as an advertising sound bite, but as halacha.

Obnoxious and stupid quite frankly. The amazing good that Apple and Steve Jobs has done for the disability community with their products is unquantifiable. Shame on Rabbi Sacks. A rabbi s supposed to be more educated.

- Mordechai Y. Scher said...
Jameel, maybe the rabbis' humour or sarcasm was just a bit too subtle for you.
It seems quite apparent to me that Rav Sacks' complaint is more about the selfish attitude of the consumers than it is about Jobs. More about the market's response and exaggerated veneration, than it is about the inventor. Oh, and have you not noticed that more and more people are paying attention to their earphones and portable screens than they are to their surroundings and neighbors on the buses and in public places?
As for Rav Cardozo, you really think that was a mistake based on ignorance of language? Really? From a philosopher, of all people? I rather see that it was quite a cute play on the words cross-culturally, which allowed to create a witty message. Maybe it is only an older generation who used to be so facile with language in Israel; but I saw it right away as the sort of pun that I have heard many times over the years. I still hear them occasionally in Hebrew, but only from an 80-something year old gentleman who speaks about 15 languages. I think it just went over your head, in this case.
- 3:44 PM, November 21, 2011
- Mordechai Y. Scher said...
Jameel, you are right that living in Israel is a mitzvah. Literally. But you misrepresent the Rambam. Look again at M'lachim 5:12.
He opens by saying that a person 'should always live in the Land of Israel...and should not live outside of the Land...that everyone who leaves to hutz la-aretz is as if a 'foreign worshiper' (my preferred term since idols are required to make it forbidden).
So Rambam's comparison to avodah zarah isn't for any and everyone who merely lives outside Israel. That would indict even those who had little choice and were raised outside Israel. Even his own holy forbears. His comparison is pointed at those who actively abandon the Land of Israel having already been there.
Rambam's language is always carefully chosen. He changed the verb from 'live' to 'leave' when he made his comparison to idol worship. It must have meaning. What's more, Rambam changed the language of the g'mara. The g'mara in Ketuvot says as you say - anyone who *lives* outside Israel resembles someone who has no God...anyone who *lives* in hutz la-aretz is as if he worships avodah zarah. So Rambam's slight change of the verb when he wrote the Mishnah Torah has to tell us something; either about how he reads the g'mara or about the version in front of him. Either way, you missed the care with which that halacha is written.
- 4:02 PM, November 21, 2011
- Jameel @ The Muqata said...
Shalom R' Mordechai: You are correct that the Rambam changes the Gemara in his codification of the mitzvot to make "leaving" Israel, as if one is worshipping avoda zara.
I could have just quoted the Gemara exactly which states that it is better to live in a city of mostly idolators in Israel than a city of Jews outside of Israel, and that anyone who lives outside of Israel, it is if they have no G-d...and if they live outside Israel it is as if they worships false gods:
ת"ר: לעולם ידור אדם בארץ ישראל אפילו בעיר שרובה עובדי כוכבים, ואל ידור בחו"ל ואפילו בעיר שרובה ישראל, שכל הדר בארץ ישראל - דומה כמי שיש לו אלו-ה, וכל הדר בחוצה לארץ - דומה כמי שאין לו אלו-ה, שנא' (ויקרא כה): "לתת לכם את ארץ כנען - להיות לכם לאלהי-ם".
וכל שאינו דר בארץ אין לו אלו-ה?! אלא לומר לך: כל הדר בחו"ל - כאילו עובד עבודה זרה; וכן בדוד הוא אומר: (שמואל א, כו) "כי גרשוני היום מהסתפח בנחלת ה' לאמר לך עבוד אלהים אחרים", וכי מי אמר לו לדוד לך עבוד אלהי-ם אחרים? אלא לומר לך: כל הדר בחו"ל - כאילו עובד עבודה זרה.
מסכת כתובות דף קי ע"ב
Its interesting why the Rambam would have changed the text of the Gemara.
(btw: this is a much better explanation for Lord Sacks' interpretation -- one who lives in Chul ends up worshiping false gods...such as the iPad and iPhone :)

It is really simply a witty comment, or a scathing critique of the alleged decline of subconscious, interpersonal relationships in Israel?
These all end with the Hebrew word lach (to you), and that is not accidental. All emphasize the relationship we have with other people. While those who created these food names may not have been aware of their choice of words, their subconscious revealed inherently Jewish values.
With all due respect to R' Cardozo, his interpretation flies in the face of pshat.

Maybe he is echoing the Mashgiach of Lakewood who held a gathering 21 Sept in condemnation of almost ALL the new techie inventions that help, truly help people function in our present days. Besides, what will they all say when Mashiach's arrival is revealed on all media of the world, including iPad, iMac et al. For even the non-Jews need to know. The Lubavitcher Rebbe said Moshiach's arrival will appear in the newspapers, which i believe would include all news sources.

Wo, easy there, big fella.
It is a metaphor for selfishness that Rav Saks is suggesting, not a literal attack on the iPad. When he reverts to i,i,i, he in no way is suggesting that this is what Apple meant.
He is not attacking computers, or iPads, he is attacking the consumer culture in which we live.
Speaking as a big fan of Rav Saks, perhaps you should consider your phraseology and Kavod Harav when you blog. Nastiness begets nastiness, you know.
I believe it was Andrew Carnegie who defined the consumer culture as getting people to consider luxuries as necessities.
Chill out there, J.

"Aliya doesn't need a catchphrase -- its a mitzva."

Anonymous (fan of R' Saks):
As the owner of some of R' Saks's books, I was disappointed that he used the "i" in iPad to get to his "i,i,i" point of attacking consumer culture.
Personally, I found the metaphor not becoming of the intellect of R' Sacks, nor befitting the general public. This is the new level of discourse?

"While the "i" could mean, "I" as in first person, everyone routinely uses "i" to denote internet."
According to apple, the "i" in iMac stands for 'individual'. 'internet', 'instruct', 'inform' and 'inspire'

""lach" in Yiddish, as I wrotein the post above and provided the Wikipedia hyperlinked article, means diminutive plural."
No, that is not what the word 'lach' means. That is what the suffix 'lach' means.
I asked because according to google translate, 'lach' means 'you' in Yiddish as well.

In perhaps one of the most asinine attacks on modern society I've come across lately, the Chief Rabbi of the British Commonwealth, Lord Jonathan Sacks has come out swinging against the late Steve Jobs, Apple Corp, and modern day consumerism.
The "i" in "iPhone" is not intended to be "possessive" any more than an ophthalmologist is a label for a selfish physician who cares more about getting your money than caring for your opthamological [sic.] health.
I wonder how long it will take for Rabbi Sacks to come out swinging against a popular and ordinarily intelligent Jewish blogger who mistook an obviously pedagogical jumping-off point for etymological substantiation of his premise, thereby totally ignoring the valid point he was making.
Perhaps he'll conclude that the blogger was so focused on dinging him for not encouraging Aliyah (at an interfaith reception attended by the Queen of England!) that he was scraping the bottom of the barrel looking for some context for misplaced criticism.
Far be it from me to say it, I'm just wondering if the Chief Rabbi will.

Too bad you didn't see the clarification first. It could have saved you the trouble of publishing a misdirected attack on the Chief Rabbi.
I have a feeling that the clarification was due to the reaction of millions of angry Apple fans. Ironically, the day before Jobs' death, many of those fans were spewing venom in his direction over the perceived (in their eyes) shortcomings of the iPhone 4s. Jobs' demise magically turned Apple's failure into a technological marvel.

Rabbis are drawn to that initial "i" of iPod like moths to a flame. I expect that if you were to look for them you could find examples in contemporary Christian and Islamic homiletics as well.
Homiletics is not linguistics. More often than not, it is not even exegesis. It's purpose is to edify while amusing. We find this sort of stuff all over aggadic midrash, and all over the gemara, so why deny it to Sacks?
OTOH, it may be construed as poor taste to make an example of him so soon after his death, and there is no shortage of consummate marketers to choose from.
But, if you read Neal Stephenson's "In the Beginning was the Command Line," you will understand why Jobs is a natural choice.

Whoa, it looks like you were right; it certainly didn't take R. Sacks long to "come out swinging". (I hope Jameel ducked.)
That's assuming, of course, that one considers R. Sacks contrite spin-control "clarification" and flip-flop regarding Steve Jobs to be an example of "coming out swinging"...

I'm glad your post was removed, but the fact is, it all comes down to Kavod Harav. Would you have written a post like that if Rabbi Soloveitchik or Rav Moshe Feinstein were the person with whom you objected? I would tend to doubt it. You wouldn't have called their words asinine.

Thanks for pointing that out. If you google that particular statement by R. Sacks, btw, you will find that it is quoted gleefully and incessantly by thousands of viciously antisemitic web sites -- so much so that Google feels compelled to accompany the search results with a disclaimer.
To call that repugnant statement "asinine" is an understatement. Kol HaKavod, Lord Sacks.
Statements like that from R. Sacks demonstrate very clearly why it is absurd, to put it mildly, to compare him to R. Soloveitchik or R. Feinstein. Unlike R. Sacks, they were proud, not uncomfortable, about being Jews. And they certainly would never have publicly denounced the Jewish state for defending itself against those who seek to destroy it, especially to a antisemitic audience -- as R. Sacks did.
- 5:28 PM, November 23, 2011
I clicked on the disclaimer from google, and it's not about that google search results but rather the fact that you searched for the word 'jew'..
In that link they provide a link to a fascinating article which reads...
"According to the "Philologos" (word lover) column in the Jewish newspaper The Forward, the word "Jew" is unique in the English language. In English, there are two rules of thumb for using nouns as adjectives when referring to ethnicity or geographic origin.
In one system, the noun and the adjective are the same. "Russian," "German" and "Greek" are interchangeable as nouns and adjectives; you say, "he's Greek" and "he's eating a Greek salad." In the second system, the noun and the adjective are different. You drink "Turkish" coffee, but no one says "he is a Turkish."
"There is, to the best of my knowledge," according to Philologos, "only one consistent exception to this rule: the word Jew." You can use "Jew" and "Jewish" interchangeably. The column contends that using "Jew" as an adjective is therefore offensive because it inherently suggests that Jews are "unlike all other human beings.""
Sounds like we should stop calling people Jewish and start being a unique people in the world :)

I guess you see no irony in Dati Jews defending their attack on a Rabbi whom many respect, though obviously they don't.
Factionalism is what will destroy our present status quo, much as it did at Churban baiyit sheini.
Is it that he's too liberal for you?
Do you just not like his views?
To me, your position is indefensible, but we'll just let your readers decide.

Ah, the ultimate conversation stopper. Factionalism -- or the inability to criticize anyone for the sake of the klal, regardless of the issue at hand.
Tell me, I am allowed to write I found Rabbi Sack's drash on the "i,i,i,iPad" immature and anti-intellectual? Since "asinine" is wrong, am I allowed to disagree with his viewpoint at all?
Rabbi Sack's has no issue dishing out criticism in his "Traditional Alternatives" book, where his stereotypical "Kipa Sruga" character is painted in radical wing wing colors.
Yet to call his "i,i,i" remark asinine is wrong?
His office found it necessary to do spin control after hundreds of thousands of people found it insulting that he (appeared) to be attacking Apple Corp and Steve Jobs.
I found his speech distasteful. However, I also removed the post after deciding that my language could have been written differently.
At the end of the day, he clarified his statements in an apologetic tone, and I removed my post.
Regardless of the post, his previous statements about Israel were offensive to many Israelis, many Jews, and your kneejerk defense of everything Rabbi Sacks says is kind of pitiful.

The fall flocks arrive this month
Bird enthusiasts and hunters wait for them every fall. Flocking to the Chesapeake from the prairie pothole region of north-central United States, south-central to northern Canada and Alaska, the ducks arrive. They dabble in our coves and lend their voices to the symphony of winter, harmonizing with the sonorous hooting of tundra swans and geese.
Though the vast numbers of the past are no longer, this year's duck factory output has bird-lovers cheering.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 2012 Trends in Duck Breeding Population Report cites a record estimate of ducks across the U.S. and Canada: 48.6 million. That's three million more quackers than last year, 43 percent above the long-term average. Despite fewer ponds and declining wetlands, waterfowl flocks soared.
Just who are these ducks?
Canvasback: Draped in sailcloth white with gleaming black bow and stern and brick-red sloping figurehead, this large, gregarious diver typically appears in rafts of tens to thousands. The origin of the common name is disputed, but their scientific name links the ducks, Aythya valisineria, to their favorite food: Vallisneria Americana, or wild celery. Canvasbacks posted high numbers this year, 33 percent above average.
Greater and lesser scaup: Only slight subtleties to the shape of the head differentiate these look-alike species. Together, they are two of the most prevalent overwintering ducks on the Bay. Oreo-like, the males are dark on the ends and light in the middle, though grayer than the canvasback. The females' chestnut heads with white-ringed bills offset their mottled brown bodies. Good numbers this year, up 21 percent from 2011 estimates.
Gadwall: Subtle grey stippling covers the head and body of this understated male duck; wings sport an upper wash of brown, a flash of white at the base; tail is velvety black. Pair-bonded to mallard-resembling females during fall migration, these dabblers continue courtship here on the Bay, arching, fluffing and whistling. Primarily vegetarians in winter, gadwalls tip to eat grasses and reeds. They are also thieves, stealing from other ducks. Gadwall numbers are up 10 percent above 2011 estimates, a 96 percent increase of long-term averages.
American wigeon: Called baldpate for their white forehead and crown, male wigeons are also known for their bright green Zorro mask, pink-brown body with white wing patch and black tail with white flanks. Vegetarian dabblers like gadwalls, wigeons are prone to thievery, typically snatching food from surfacing canvasbacks. A 1980s' drought halved the population, but numbers are improving, with a three percent increase over 2011. That's still 17 percent below their long-term average.
Green-winged teal: The small, swift-flying male stunner is easily recognized by his green swoosh from eye to base of neck across a chestnut-red head. A white vertical thumbprint on his shoulder is distinctive. Both males and the mottled brown females sport an iridescent green patch on wings and a buffy streak along their tails. These dabblers love seeds and grains and can be found in marshes and creeks, often stopping to glean in flooded fields. Numbers are up: 20 percent over 2011 numbers, 74 percent over long-term average.
Mergansers: Lumped into one category in the Fish and Wildlife report, mergansers come in three species: common merganser, green-head with thin red-bill; red-breasted merganser, with shaggy green-head; and hooded merganser, noted for puffy white crest. The females of each species are shaped like their male counterparts but with reddish-orange heads. All are found on the winter Bay, though the hooded tend to be more secretive, tucked primarily in small wooded coves. Their populations were higher this year than in 2011.
Two more migratory Bay ducks not included in the survey deserve mention because of their prevalence on our green winter waters.
Ruddy ducks are typically seen in rafts of hundreds to thousands. Muted grey in the fall, the males are recognizable by their small size, pale cheeks and upright tails. But keep your eye on them, for come spring they transform from drab to fab, decked out with handsome blue bills, chestnut bodies and white cheeks. If you are out boating on a still winter day and come upon a flock, listen for the spring rain sound they make on takeoff as hundreds of webbed feet run along the water's surface.
Buffleheads scatter all over the winter Bay. Resembling small, flattened black-and-white balls, they are noted for their bouncy dives. Their courtships begin in early spring, with the males performing head bobs, jabs and scooting displays.
Don't miss the fun! Grab a pair of binoculars and head out to the Bay. The ducks will be there.
Two duck species breed here on the Bay.
We all recognize the ubiquitous mallards — the jade-headed male and camouflage-brown female — that nest in flower planters and under docks, parading their broods around the boats on Memorial Day and the Fourth of July. Their local population is stable, according to the Second Atlas of the Breeding Birds of Maryland and the District of Columbia. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's report found lowered numbers in the northeastern United States. But their numbers are strong in the pothole region: 10.6 million, 39 percent above average.
Our other primary Chesapeake breeder, the black duck, looks like a coal-covered mallard. Black duck numbers have fallen due to regional habitat loss, and local numbers are down. Fish and Wildlife reports an increase in the northeast, however, and some of those will winter here.

The sunny fact that Americans are living longer, more productive lives has a dark side: More of us than ever live with chronic illnesses that are not only a drag on sufferers' time and energy, but on the nation's pocketbook. The Institute of Medicine on Tuesday put a dollar figure on the cost of caring for chronic illness in the United States--$1.5 trillion yearly, fully three-fourths of annual healthcare spending.
A panel of experts called on policymakers to do more to prevent and track the big nine chronic diseases that most drain the nation's wallet. And they called for more efforts to streamline the care of the patients who live with those conditions, and to improve their quality of life.
Among the chronic health conditions on the American medical landscape, nine dominate, the Institute of Medicine report issued Tuesday says. They are (followed, where estimated, by the numbers of Americans afflicted at last count):
--arthritis (50 million adults)
--cancer survivorship (12 million)
--chronic pain (116 million adults)
--dementia (5.4 million)
--depression (20.3 million)
--Type 2 diabetes (25.6 million adults)
--schizophrenia (2 million)
--hearing and vision loss (34 million and 25 million adults)
Most of these chronic conditions are related to at least one of two factors clearly on the rise among Americans: advanced age and obesity. So the prevalence of virtually all of these "big nine" health conditions is also expected to rise, in some cases steeply, in the years ahead.

In drawing a goddess, be especially mindful of the theme. Like if she's a norse goddess she won't exactly be sporting a kimono like Amaterasu or if she is a goddess of war, she should have something that identifies her as one. This time I will be using Demeter or Ceres, the goddess of harvest. (If you wanted to use the hi-res version of the construction I could give it)

Mt. Airy and Chestnut Hill area residents who favor gourmet pizza, green living and home-brewed beer have been flocking like seagulls at the Jersey shore to Earth Bread + Brewery. The restaurant and brewpub at 7136 Germantown Ave. (at Durham Street) in Mt. Airy has cultivated a legion of fans, thanks to their brewing of new beer flavors on-site each week and cooking the area's best flatbreads in their own homemade brick oven.
Earth Bread + Brewery opened two years ago when Peggy Zwerver and her husband, Tom Baker, renovated a former Mt. Airy bar with sustainability, culture and family in mind.
They offer a selection of gourmet flatbread pizzas from the traditional, with homemade mozzarella prepared daily, to the "Hunter" — with its hearty spicy turkey sausage, blackened chicken and pepperoni asiago. And for those who love their veggies, there's the "Gatherer" with garlic oil, mushrooms, tomatoes, peppers, artichoke hearts and fresh mozzarella with a pesto finish.
If you're just looking for appetizers, there's also edamame, roasted red pepper hummus, an artisan cheese plate (local when available) and artichoke dip. And there's fruit and veggies with peanut butter for the kids. But if you just want to slake a thirst, in addition to the homebrews there's the "world class" wine and beer selection.
Zwerver, 56, and Baker, 53, were computer programmers who were ready to do something different. It all started just over 20 years ago, when Baker got a home-brewing kit for Christmas. He experimented with different flavors and recipes. One thing led to the next, and at the turn of the century the couple opened Heavyweight Brewing, a production brewery in New Jersey.
"We sold a lot of beer to Philadelphia, so we decided that when we opened a restaurant, we would open one here," said Zwerver last Wednesday evening at the brewpub. By 8:30 p.m. the upstairs bar and seating area, which features local artists' work on its walls, was beehive busy. "There's all kinds of cultures and mixed marriages and an open-minded community here," said Zwerver. "A lot of young families have been very supportive."
Perhaps it was Zwerver's and Baker's vision for Earth Bread to put respect for the earth and their guests at the top of their priorities that resonates among the younger families in the area. They also chose to purchase meat from local (within 75 miles) purveyors and farms. Produce comes from Weaver's Way Co-op. Their coffee beans are roasted in Norristown, and their compost procedures bring "everything full circle," said Zwerver. "The food is broken down, and it can be used to plant crops."
And not just the food and paper waste are recycled. The pine floor on the lower level had been on the walls of a warehouse in Maine before the couple bought it through Craigslist. And in a nod to a semi-local brewery, they bought old tables from Victory Brewing Company in Downingtown. Even the soap products are made by Sun & Earth, a green cleaning product.
"It's just the right thing to do," said Zwerver. "I'm not introducing toxic elements into the waste stream with my soap products." And composting cuts down on the cost of waste removal and increases the aesthetic, for there is no need for a dumpster.
A fine complement to its green vision and to the brick-oven pizza is the homemade beer brewed by Baker, but if you like a specific brew, you better drink it when it's on tap, because Baker only brews it once. Since they opened, he's developed 77 flavors.
Last week the west coast-style Romulus IPA and Second Degree (an English-style mild ale) were available. The dark Cuvee de Clivden, a Russian Imperial Stout, is on deck. But for those accustomed to the familiar, there are also your popular microbrews like the Troegs Dreamweaver Wheat and the Allagash White.
"There are too many beers to make," said Baker, who develops his recipes by experimenting with different amounts of herbs and spices. "I don't want to be stuck with doing the same one all the time."
Baker also built the brick-oven at the restaurant using directions he found the internet. "I've never done anything with masonry," said Baker. "It wasn't until I was finished that I sat back and said 'I hope this thing doesn't fall.' It's something I've always wanted to do. I always wanted a brick oven at home."
Well, now he has one in Mt. Airy. And while the flatbread shape and style of pizza make it difficult to eat the traditional way, with one's hands, the flavor and look of the brick oven-heated dough and melted cheese are enough to make you forget about your 'earthly' cares. And while Earth Bread + Brewery goes beyond the offerings of your traditional neighborhood pizzeria, it has the potential to become your favorite traditional neighborhood gourmet brick oven brewpub.

Coffman hits Romanoff on new poll, cites Obamacare
The poll showed that 60 percent of Colorado voters oppose Obamacare compared to 56 percent on Nov. 20. Only 37 percent support the ACA as of Thursday, compared to 40 percent in November.
"After nearly 350,000 Coloradans received health insurance cancellation notices thanks to Obamacare and a nonpartisan report found Obamacare would kill over 2 million jobs, it's no wonder Coloradans are so opposed to this terrible piece of legislation," Coffman said in a statement. "It's amazing to me that after all of this news my opponent thinks Obamacare didn't go far enough."
Democrats, however, have said that number is misleading because the majority of those "cancellations" included offers to renew current plans.
Romanoff answered back, saying the focus should be on improving health care and not politics.
"The message from Colorado — in this poll and every other — is loud and clear: Stop playing politics. Start solving problems. Let's work together to curb the cost and improve the quality of health care, instead of just pointing fingers and picking fights."

Miss Snark,
I'm newly addicted to your blog and have a question for you, if you don't mind. As a magazine journalist, I get highly annoyed when people submit stories to me that are chock full of obvious AP Style errors. Should writers submitting manuscripts stick to a certain style (Chicago? AP? Something else?) or would you be OK with it as long as the writer is consistent throughout?
There's a book about style? geeze, I maybe should get one.
Some nitwit (clearly not a snarkling) said on some sour grapes drenched post over yonder that clearly I wasn't an agent cause I punctuated my parenthesis and quotes incorrectly.
well, to that I say "fuckoffanddie".
Then of course, in the comments line over here somewhere, I get snapped at for ya'll instead of y'all.
Ya'll are in need of colon-ic: kindly, Miss Snark provides one.
Now to be on point so to speak: I totally agree there should be a consistent style in a manuscript. Most of the time I ask people to follow what's laid out in Writers Market or the other publishing books; that is, I'm not going to be rabid on the subject but you have to do a couple things right and the rest has to be consistent.
Mag journalism is different. They ARE nutso about style format. So are newspapers. Maybe cause they're working to deadlines that make Miss Snark reach for the gin pail and not a job application.
Almost every website I've seen gives suggestions for style, and things to watch out for. As in most things, following the directions given will be a smart move.
Now, I'd like to discuss the proper use of the ampersand. But first.. a gin&tonic.

Mrs. Tribe is an editor at a national weekly...and more often than not arrives home complaining not only about the fact that freelancers don't adhere to any style, but get so, so pissy when their stuff is edited to make it conform to one style or another. They must have forgotten what "work for hire" means.

Seems to me that ya'll is fine, cos it fits with yanno. Yanno?

- K said...
It's mostly the tiny things I wonder about ... whether it should be OK or okay, etc. I doubt stuff like that would be a deal-breaker, but I'd like to annoy the agent and editors as little as possible.
And thanks for answering my question. :)
- 9/22/2005
- Ric said...
I had an editor friend edit my ms., and couldn't figure out what he was doing in some spots. Turns out, he is an old newspaper guy and used the AP style book. Fine, it was consistent at least.
Then I run into an agent who insists I use Strunk & White.
Then, there are agent's websites that request you use only Chicago.
Miss Snark, I think the question begs a more definitive answer. We're just looking for additional guidance on how not to send agents to their gin pails. Apparently, little things are all that is necessary to tick some of them off, and we certainly wouldn't want to do that, especially late at night.
- 9/22/2005
- Miss Snark said...
Ric...yea, no late night pissing contests please. One was enough.
As to style, I honest to god can't tell you to do anything OTHER than look at an agent's website and follow the directions. My site is pretty general: put it on 8.5 x 11 paper, double space, no whack job fonts and try to spell everything right.
OK versus okay..I could give a damn.
Laid versus lay..that I care about but that's not style.
If someone wants you to follow the AP style handbook, do it.
If they want Chicago do it.
Be smart of course and save each version so you're not going back and forth.
Almost every PUBLISHER I know has a stylebook, but that's for when the project is SOLD, not in submission.
Hope this helps.

Miss Snark,
What a lovely and thoughtful answer.

- Desperate Writer said...
Well, being a Texas girl, I stick by the y'all, instead of "you all" or "ya'll." And I was brow-beaten by CPs until I finally made OK "okay."
Desperate Writer wonders if Miss Snark wiped the gin infused drool off her TV screen after watching George Clooney on Letterman last night. :) Awfil thing, that back injury he had, I shudder to think what would have happened to him had they not found out that he was leaking spinal fluid.

Your boyfriend is going to be on the Daily Show tonight, if your PI hasn't already let you know. ;)

- Miss Snark said...
ohhhhh!!!!! Miss Snark will now have to remove the aquarium from the television and tune up the rabbit ears to see her beloved.
Will y'all start worrying if I talk about his subliminal messages to me that I picked up during the interview?

Mariners held to two hits behind Elias in Miami
Seattle can't solve Alvarez; rook allows six runs in club's fifth straight L
MIAMI -- Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon sat inside the visitors' dugout when Marlins right-hander Henderson Alvarez tossed a no-hitter on Closing Day 2013.
As the hitting coach for the Tigers, McClendon witnessed Alvarez's potent arsenal of pitches. Through five innings of Saturday night's game, it looked as though the Miami right-hander might replicate that performance.
Left-hander Roenis Elias struggled in his fourth Major League start, while Alvarez baffled the Mariners' bats in a two-hitter in Seattle's 7-0 loss in front of 24,003 at Marlins Park.
"When you run into a guy who's got three or four pitches working, and he's a power pitcher, it's going to be tough," McClendon said. "I don't care who you are. If he's commanding three or four pitches and he's got plus-stuff on the fastball, you're probably going to have a long night. That's what it was. He pitched extremely well tonight."
Seattle couldn't muster much off Alvarez (1-2), who retired the first 15 batters through five innings. Seventeen of his outs were via grounders. He also struck out four batters and walked none.
Dustin Ackley ended the perfect-game bid on the first pitch of the sixth with a single to center. A double play off the bat of Mike Zunino allowed Alvarez to face the minimum until the catcher doubled down the third-base line with one out in the ninth.
Zunino was the only Mariners baserunner to reach scoring position, but he was stranded there after consecutive groundouts to second by Nick Franklin and Abraham Almonte to end the game.
"It's one of those things where [McClendon] wants us to be aggressive at the plate and hunting balls in the strike zone early and try to put good swings on them," said Zunino, who finished 1-for-3. "[Saturday] when you run into a guy that's got good cut to his fastball and good offspeed pitches, he was able to keep his pitch count down when we were able to get some [quick] outs."
Elias (1-2), meanwhile, surrendered a season-high six runs (four earned) on eight hits over 5 2/3 innings, with career highs in walks (five) and strikeouts (five).
After working out of trouble in the first two frames, Elias allowed an unearned run in each of the next two.
Christian Yelich led off the third with a double and raced to third when Almonte bobbled the ball once it bounced off the left-center-field wall. Elias struck out Marcell Ozuna and intentionally walked Giancarlo Stanton before Casey McGehee's one-out RBI single.
Adeiny Hechavarria and Donovan Solano produced back-to-back one-out singles in the fourth, and Alvarez bunted them over. Ball four to Yelich got past Zunino, permitting Hechavarria to race home.
Ozuna broke the game open with a three-run homer into the Clevelander pool in left field with two outs in the sixth. It would be the last pitch -- career-high No. 111 of the night -- for Elias.
"I felt a little tired, but I felt I could get out of that inning no problem," Elias said. "It was a high fastball. I was trying to go in on him and left it over the middle."
Hechavarria had singled with one out and advanced to third on Solano's groundout to third. Alvarez drove Hechavarria in with an RBI single to center. Yelich followed with a walk before Ozuna connected on a 2-2 fastball.
In their previous two games, Mariners starting pitchers combined for nine runs allowed on 13 hits in just five innings pitched.
"I thought he threw pretty darn good," McClendon said of Elias. "His command was a little shaky early, but he got it back together. It was unfortunate we were trying to push him a little bit because where we are with our bullpen. If you really think about it, he was one out -- the pitcher -- from having a fantastic outing, so it's a shame it ended up like it did. He did a great job.
During the Mariners' five-game skid, the offense has averaged just 2.4 runs per game, but the clubhouse isn't panicking despite three straight series losses.
After all, there are still 144 games remaining in the regular season. Look no further than the opposing dugout, where the Marlins had previously dropped eight in a row and nine of 10.
"Everybody does hit those rough patches, but I think that's what it is -- just a rough patch," said Brad Miller, who went hitless in three at-bats. "It doesn't really reflect the type of team we've got. Get back [Sunday], hopefully come here, take care of business, and get back home and keep things going."
