And for my next trick? Time and times will tell: lots of decisions ahead before Bob Bowman greets Michael Phelps home to Baltimore after a break that could stretch until February 1 next year. Unlikely - Phelps can't sit still that long, the coach believes.
Besides, both mentor and mother of the winner of eight gold medals want a trip to Rome next summer. Michael is their ticket, so the pressure's on. Sort of. "It'll be like his welcome back meet, a little like Montreal (2005)," said Bowman in his last interview before leaving Beijing.
Speaking at the Casa Italia to SwimNews The Times and The Australian, Bowman revealed a little of what we can expect from Phelps: "He will definitely be swimming backstroke and he's going to branch out into the sprint events as well. You'll see him do breaststroke but not at this [Olympic] sort of level. In national events." One thing he won't be doing: chasing Thorpey's 400m free record. But the 200m butterfly is in for a bashing - as a priority.
Phelps's goggles filled up with water in the 200m butterfly and left him struggling to find best form. The result was still a world record of 1:52.03. But Bowman says that might have been "in the 1:50s and if he takes a shot at it on its own [beyond the multi-event programme] it could be 1:49." Imagine that.
Not long after Bowman spoke at the Casa Italia, Phelps was being mobbed by Chinese fans and tracked by the constant craving of cameras over at the China Club, the very beautiful, most Chinese temporary home of one of his sponsors, Omega. As stylish as their watches. Clockwork luxury. The perfect image for a swimming who times things to perfection. The offers are flooding in and the folk at Octagon, the agent for Phelps and Bowman, will need more than eight arms to cope. They are talking Tiger Woods. No surprise.
None either when Bowman talks of keeping the 100m butterfly on the list of targets - 50.58 in Beijing but Bowman believes a sub-50 is possible. easier too in a world without the 400m medley: coach will honour the deal he struck with his charge, although there would be room for improvement even on a 4:03.84, he said: "When he did his breaststroke to freestyle turn, he did no dolphin kicks, so there was a flaw there, it could have been better. If he did the dolphin kicks he would have been another body-length ahead."
It is what you might expect of a psychology graduate and deep thinker, who helped to build the perfect competitive beast of the pool since Michael was 11. A Machiavellian grin breaking out on his face, Bowman, revealed the terrible truth: "At the Melbourne World Cup in 2003 I stepped on his goggles - deliberately. He said 'hey, someone stepped on my goggles'. I said 'Oh ... well, you're just gonna have to go without them'."
When the scrawny, gangly boy raced at his first national junior meet in the United State, Bowman noticed he had left his goggles behind just before he walked out to the blocks. "I saw them sitting in our team area, I could have taken the goggles to him but I decided to keep them and see what he could do," Bowman said. "So he swam and won the race without the goggles just like he did here [in Beijing] in the (200) butterfly when his goggles filled with water."
Bowman added: "I've always tried to find ways to give him adversity in either meets or practice and have him overcome it," said the coach. He took Phelps, 14, to an evening competition and asked the driver to turn up late – on purpose. "That way there was no dinner – he had to deal with it," said Bowman with a chuckle.
"He's used to handling pressure situations in training, where that pressure comes from me," Bowman said. "We have often put him in a situation where practice is not over until he achieves a certain time. Things have to be done absolutely correctly or we do them over."
Bowman learned some of his tricks and tactics from former Britain performance director Bill Sweetenham. "I was at the AIS when Bill was there training a squad of juniors. After one session, they all complained that the water in the water fountain was too hot. So the next day, there was no water fountain." It had been removed.
In Phelps, Bowman found the raw materials that he had been looking for at the North Baltimore Swim Club. "He was so fast, he had to swim with older swimmers ... but by the end of the practice, and at the most difficult part of the session, I saw a little cap moving up forward to the front of the line with each repeat swim. It was so remarkable, I'd never seen anything like it and when I went home that night I couldn't sleep I was so excited, but of course I didn't tell him that."
Instead, Bowman piled on the metres and challenges. After one particularly bruising practice, Phelps leapt out of the water and started throwing water at some of the girls watching nearby. "I said 'you should be very tired, that's the hardest practice you've ever done'," Bowman recalled. "I'll never forget, he looked me straight in the eye and said 'I don't get tired', so I made that my life goal to see if I could accomplish that."
He took Phelps to junior meets where "he would race three times in the morning, three in the afternoon and then I'd say to him, 'that's not quite right, you could go again'. Every time he got out and said 'I'm tired', I said 'no, no, look, let's just try that again, go on now', and every time he'd get back in and go again."
He also had a built-in clock. Bowman asked him to write down the times he wanted to achieve in three favourite races. "He was just 11 but six months later he swam those exact times, to the one-hundredth of a second," Bowman recalled. "I don't know how that's possible but it's true. He always had a very good sense of finding where he wants to go and how to go there." As we discovered at the Water Cube.
Bowman's role has been pivotal, critical even: 12 years of emotional, mental and physical preparation of a kind that few could have withstood. Time swims of 10km and hour-long sessions chucking a medicine ball back and forth have combined with Phelps's ability to disappear to a place where he needs to be to get the return he seeks.
Bowman noted that Phelps "can focus like no other athlete". The example he gave also explained an incident that was reported as "Phelps stares down Cavic". He did no such thing, it turns out. "If you were watching the 100m butterfly final, the Serbian swimmer and Michael were facing each other standing behind the blocks and it looked like they were trying to stare each other down. After the race I asked Michael if that was what he was doing, and he said 'I didn't even know he was there'. That's how focused Michael is on what he wants to do."
There are moments when things do not go according to plan, of course. The 200m butterfly and the goggles was one. And there are moments that need Bowman to step in and coach hand son in the middle of a big meet. The only time that happened in Beijing was on the day that Phelps faced the 200m medley - job done but the swimmer returned "totally drained" for the first time that week - and the 100m butterfly semi-final. "I had to talk him through that. He was really tired at that point. I wasn't sure how it was going to go," said Bowman.
Phelps put in a fantastic second 50m and a day later stood up for a final that Bowman thought might leave the score at seven. "The biggest moment of relief for me was after the 100m butterfly [final]. I'd myself convinced that seven was the number. It wasn't until the last 15m [butterfly] that I thought maybe it [eight] would happen. One thing Michael does better than anyone else is to use the right amount of emotional energy for every race he stands up for."
When Phelps returns from London 2012 promos, golf in the Algarve, the Superbowl and a 101 other commitments and catch-ups of varied kinds, Octagon will be ready with a plan that will have to leave swimming at the top of the heap. Bowman explained: "They know that without the swimming there's no more money, that's the key to Michael's success." And success is what he would seek if he stays in the game. "It would be nice to have Michael retire on top. It's important to me that he doesn't peter out."
And with that, Bowman was off, back to building a new home in Baltimore, setting up shop and waiting for the return of a man who this time round starts the season, whenever that may be, as the greatest Olympian in history, a man who transcends his sport. The same might well be said of Bowman.

TEST Paragraph
In 2019, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under President Trump and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers repealed the ABC-opposed 2015 WOTUS rule and replaced it with the Navigable Waters Protection Rule.
In August 2020, following a federal court decision, the agencies halted nationwide implementation of the NWPR.
In December 2021, the agencies issued a proposed rule that would repeal the NWPR and restore the pre-2015 definition of WOTUS. ABC submitted comments urging the EPA and the Corps to withdraw the proposed rule.
On Dec. 30, 2022, the EPA and Corps issued a final rule to revise the definition of "waters of the United States" applicable to all Clean Water Act programs, repealing the ABC-supported 2020 Navigable Waters Protection Rule. ABC issued a statement on the final rule, calling it the rule a "significant step back" that will "delay critical infrastructure projects and raise costs for the construction industry."
On Feb. 16, 24 state attorneys general filed a lawsuit against the EPA and Corps, seeking to overturn the final rule.
On Feb. 27, ABC, along with members of the Waters Advocacy Coalition, sent a letter to the U.S. House of Representatives Transportation and Infrastructure Committee supporting H.J. Res. 27, a joint resolution of disapproval under the Congressional Review Act of the revised WOTUS regulation.
On March 9, the House passed H.J. Res. 27. ABC key voted the resolution which passed by a bipartisan 227-198 vote.
On March 19, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas issued a ruling blocking the EPA and Corps from enforcing the WOTUS final rule, but only in the states of Texas and Idaho. The court separately rejected a request to block enforcement nationwide.
On March 29, the U.S. Senate passed H.J. Res. 27 in a 53-43 vote with the support of all Senate Republicans and five Democrats. President Joe Biden vetoed the resolution on April 6.
On April 12, a federal judge in the U.S. District Court for the District of North Dakota issued a ruling blocking the EPA and Corps from enforcing the WOTUS final rule. The preliminary injunction applies to Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia and Wyoming. This brings the total number of states blocking the WOTUS rule to 26.
On April 18, the House held a vote on overriding President Biden's veto. ABC issued an action alert asking members to urge their member of Congress to vote in support. The veto override again received bipartisan support in a 227-196 vote but failed to meet the two-thirds threshold needed to pass.
On May 25, the U.S. Supreme Court narrowed the scope of WOTUS in its decision in Sackett v. Environmental Protection Agency by rejecting the "significant nexus test," eliminating the costly regulatory uncertainty that has plagued construction projects around the country for decades without providing meaningful environmental protections for America's waterways.
On Aug. 29, the EPA and Corps issued a final rule and fact sheet regarding amendments to the definition of "waters of the United States" subject to Clean Water Act regulation. This rule is aimed at bringing the January 2023 WOTUS final rule into compliance with the Supreme Court's decision in Sackett v. EPA.
ABC noted that although the rule implements some of the key wins from the Sackett decision, it fails to fully implement the court's opinion, including on the definition of "relatively permanent" waters, and may result in continued regulatory uncertainty.
The final rule took effect on Sept. 8, 2023, after being published in the Federal Register. The amended version of the January 2023 final rule is now in effect, except in states where it is currently blocked by a preliminary injunction.
Desired Outcome
For decades, uncertainty surrounding the scope of federal authority under the Clean Water Act has resulted in litigation, regulatory uncertainty and confusion in the business community. ABC urges EPA and the Corps to return to the clear, concise definition of WOTUS implemented in the 2020 NWPR final rule so that its members have the information they need to comply with the law while also serving as good stewards of the environment

Steven Spielberg's 'Ready Player One' Pushed Back, Clears Way for Star Wars
Steven Spielberg's next film, Ready Player One, initially set for a December 15, 2017, release date, has changed its mind. The studio has pushed it back into 2018, to open on March 30th.
It's very likely that this move is intended by Warner Bros. to avoid the inevitable competition with Star Wars: Episode VIII, a competition that it would no doubt lose. Many industry analysts predicted the move in the wake of Rian Johnson's Star Wars sequel being pushed back to a Christmas time release.
Ready Player One is an adaptation of Earnest Cline's novel, and is set in 2044 following a teenager who seeks a hidden Easter Egg in the digital world of OASIS. The character, Wade, is challenged with solving puzzles set by the creator in order to unlock new clues, and vast power and wealth awaits him at the end of it all.

After an 18-12 season in the fall, Bond Shymansky's first as the Golden Eagles' skipper, the Marquette women's volleyball team is back in action.
Marquette's spring season began last weekend as the Golden Eagles traveled to the Sunshine State to play against Central Florida and South Florida.
And although there is no season-ending tournament or championship to work toward in the spring, the team did not and is not taking its games lightly.
"We don't put these hard teams in our schedule just so we can get good playing time," freshman Danielle Carlson said. "We want to win. We want to execute. We want to push ourselves."
This is a sentiment that is taught from the top down. Shymansky pushes his players to play hard in any game and to never let up.
"Anytime you compete at anything you're competing to win," Shymansky said. "Spring ball should be no different. Anytime you step out onto the court and there's a different school across the net you have to want to beat them. If you don't, you're not geared for Division I volleyball."
Marquette swept South Florida 4-0 and took down Central Florida 4-1. Sophomore Ashley Beyer picked up right where she left off last year, leading Marquette with a combined 32 kills in the two matches.
Last year's team leader in kills, Beyer tallied 14 kills against South Florida and 18 against Central Florida to go along with a .35 hitting percentage.
Junior middle hitter Rabbecka Gonyo stated earlier in the year that the team's goal every game was to hit .300.
"(Hitting .300) murders teams because obviously they can't pick up our ball," Gonyo said.
Shymansky said this was a great sign the offense is on the right track.
"I think it's a good start for us," Shymansky said. "It's always exciting for our team to get out and actually compete against somebody else. It's good to test yourself against different players and different styles."
Fellow outside hitter, sophomore Ciara Jones, put down 19 kills of her own, while Gonyo added 17.
Two freshmen also stood out over the weekend. Middle hitter Kelsey Mattai hit a tremendous .466 while right side hitter Carlson did not commit a hitting error in 30 attempts.
"I was pleased with my play," Carlson said. "I was glad the way I could contribute. The way that we won both matches was a real good way to pump us up for what's to come the next few weekends."
The Golden Eagles will have an opportunity to exact some revenge this weekend as they welcome Iowa to the Al McGuire Center. Iowa handed Marquette its first defeat of the season last fall, beating the Golden Eagles 3-1 in the second match of the Loyola Invitational.
The teams split the first two sets in that match before Iowa took control, easily winning the next two 25-18, 25-15. Junior Leslie Bielski led Marquette with 17 kills in the match while no other player recorded double-digit kills.
"We're remembering that we lost to them," Carlson said. "We want to win this, and we want to show that we've improved."
Shymansky said there was extra motivation for this weekend's tilt with the Hawkeyes.
"They're a team that beat us last year," Shymansky said. "I think you definitely want to avenge that loss."

Date: December 9, 2020
Location: Daily's Place, Jacksonville, Florida
Commentators: Excalibur, Jim Ross, Tony Schiavone
Things are getting a little wacky around here and that makes things all the more interesting. Above all else, Kenny Omega is now the World Champion and last night he appeared on Impact Wrestling to say….well I'm not completely clear but it is definitely going somewhere in the future. Other than that, we get to hear from Sting after last week's debut. Let's get to it.
Hybrid 2 vs. Young Bucks
Non-title. Before the match, the Bucks say they don't know what is going on with Kenny Omega and they haven't talked to him in over a week. They start fast with the Bucks sending them outside to start, meaning it's time for a big flip dive. Back in and we settle down a bit with the Bucks hitting a double basement dropkick on Evans. Angelico comes in to send Matt outside but Nick is right back up to kick Evans off the apron.
Nick is knocked off the apron as well and it's the assisted 450 for two on Matt. The superkicks take the Hybrid 2 down though and the hot tag brings Nick back in to clean house. Everything breaks down and Nick hits the slingshot X Factor to rock Angelico. Nick powerbombs Evans onto the Acclaimed at ringside and it's a top rope splash/standing moonsault combination for two on Angelico. Evans is back in with a 450 for two on Nick but he gets powerbombed into the enziguri in the corner.
A springboard Doomsday Device onto the ramp drops Evans again and it's a double superkick to Angelico for two. More Bang For Your Buck is broken up and Evans hits an inverted hurricanrana on Matt. Angelico wrenches Matt's knee with a spinning leglock. Even with his brother's knee getting cranked, Nick goes up top for a Swanton for the save, even with the leglock still being on. The Bucks hit a slingshot spike Tombstone to put Evans down on the floor and it's a double superkick into the BTE Trigger to finish Angelico at 12:24.
Result: Young Bucks b. Hybrid 2 – BTE Trigger to Angelico (11:42)
Post match the Acclaimed jump the barricade to go after the Bucks but SCU runs in for the save.
Maxwell Jacob Friedman gets to beat Orange Cassidy tonight and upset a lot of not so smart marks. He's going to bash Cassidy's head in because he's better than Cassidy and Cassidy knows it.
Darby Allin does a word association test with members of Team Taz. He sees Powerhouse Hobbs as a snake in the grass, Brian Cage as a puppet and Ricky Starks as someone waiting for an opportunity, which Allin will give him. Then we see Sting's face and Allin chuckles.
Here's Cody for a chat….and hang on because here's Sting. Arn Anderson steps up to Sting to say he wanted to get a closer look and then walks away. Tony Schiavone says something similar and goes to leave but Sting says come give him a hug. Sting thanks Tony for helping him throughout his career and asks for one more IT'S STING for old times' sake. Tony gives him what he wants and Sting says this is awesome.
With Tony gone, Cody says welcome back and thanks Sting for the assist last week. Cody has been waiting to share a ring with him for a very long time….but Sting isn't here for him, at least not right now. Sting says there is something really familiar about this place and points to Darby Allin in the rafters.
This ring is the jungle and he's glad to be back on TNT. Cody again says welcome back but Sting says that the only thing for sure about him is that nothing is for sure. He is here full time and plans to be around for a good while. The way Sting chooses to play is his business and he gives Cody a rather firm pat on the back. Sting: "See you around kid."
Team Taz talks about how Cody needed Sting to come save them. Well now Cody's former star student, Taz's son Hook, is training with them and they're always ready to beat someone up.
FTR vs. Varsity Blonds
That would be Brian Pillman Jr./Griff Garrison. Pillman gets taken into the corner to start and the beating is on in a hurry. Back up and Pillman brings Wheeler over for the tag to Garrison. A few rooms of the house are cleaned and it's a spinning legdrop from Garrison to give Pillman two. Pillman misses the middle rope spinning crossbody though and the chinlock goes on as we take a break.
Back with Pillman getting caught in a Demolition Decapitator and being sent outside for a shot from Tully Blanchard. Pillman manages to get in a quick shot though and Air Pillman allows the hot tag to Garrison. House is cleaned but Harwood slips out of a suplex. Pillman comes back in and is caught with a brainbuster and the Goodnight Express gives Wheeler the pin at 8:08.
Result: FTR b. Varsity Blonds – Goodnight Express to Wheeler (8:08)
Post match FTR gets in a staredown with the Jurassic Express on the floor.
Hangman Page is in a six man tag next week against Matt Hardy and Private Party but he doesn't have any partners. John Silver and Alex Reynolds pop up from behind the bar (Page: "How long have you been there?" Silver: "About seven minutes.") to offer their services. Page eventually relents, but it's one match only. Works for the cult guys.
Dustin Rhodes vs. 10
Rhodes shoves him around to start and they're on the floor in a hurry with Dustin sending him face first into the barricade. 10 drops him onto the apron though and they head inside again with 10 hitting a big spinebuster. Dustin is sent outside again but Aaron Solow grabs 10's arm, earning himself a pump kick to the face. Back in and Dustin gets in a shot of his own, setting up the bulldog for the pin at 5:51.
Result: Dustin Rhodes b. 10 – Bulldog (5:51)
Post match here's the Dark Order, with Evil Uno saying Dustin has a long legacy in wrestling and has been around for a very long time. That comes with a lot of pressure, so he should join the Dark Order as Seven. Tony: "He doesn't want to be that number." Dustin extends his hand and then slaps Uno in the face. Uno calls the troops off before they get to Dustin and says he'll be waiting when Dustin sees the light.
Tony Schiavone has a sitdown interview with Shaquille O'Neal and Brandi Rhodes. Brandi doesn't like hearing all of Shaq's accolades but Shaq talks about Jade Cargill injuring Brandi's arm. Shaq didn't like what Jade did to her arm and Brandi agrees, though she will get in Cargill's face again if she does the same. Shaq understands that and says he and Cody were just messing around on Twitter.
He has all the respect in the world for the wrestlers and the Rhodes Family, so Brandi gets up and shakes his hand with a smile. She goes to leave without incident, but Shaq says that while Brandi's arm is in a sling, she should get some pointers from Jade. That's too far for Brandi, who says she's sick of this s***, throws a drink in Shaq's face, and calls him an overgrown a******.
Here's the Inner Circle for their summit. They have had a week to figure things out but if this doesn't work, the team is done. That's not why Jericho put the team together and it was embarrassing. Now MJF and Sammy don't like each other, Ortiz hates all of them and Santana was so mad that he didn't even come to work this week. MJF interrupts and says they are all friends and he wanted to join this team because they are great. Sammy snaps and says he's tired of MJF, with Ortiz saying that MJF is growing on him like a fungus.
They try to calm Sammy down, with Sammy eventually agreeing to shake his hand. However, if ONE MORE THING happens, he's quitting this team and taking it out on Jericho. They shake hands and Jericho says things are calm…..but Jake Hager doesn't like Wardlow staring at him. Jericho tries to calm things down and they agree to stop staring. They're on the same page and know that they need to dominate AEW as only they can. They have a big main event tonight with MJF promising to end Orange Cassidy. The team all puts their middle fingers in and it's all cool.
FTR and Tully Blanchard say they're great together, unlike Jurassic Express, who are a bunch of crazy people. They are the 82 Ford Bronco with Mario Andretti driving and they are ready to win the titles back.
Eddie Kingston/Butcher and the Blade vs. Lance Archer/Lucha Bros
The brawl is on outside before the bell with everyone going at it in a hurry. The bell rings with Pentagon getting dropped hard and having to be taken to the back. Fenix gets caught in the corner as the numbers game is already in trouble. Eddie hammers away on Fenix and then sends him chest first into the corner as Jake Roberts is sitting on the stage. Blade gets to choke away with his leg but Fenix manages a shot to Kingston's face.
The hot tag brings in Archer to slug it out with Butcher before hitting some running shoulders to both Butcher and Blade in the corner. We take a break and come back with Archer hitting a German suplex on Blade, only to grab at his knee. The hot tag brings in Fenix with the springboard and there's the big dive to take Kingston down. Back in and the powerbomb/neckbreaker combination finishes Fenix at 9:21.
Result: Eddie Kingston/Butcher and the Blade b. Lance Archer/Lucha Bros – Powerbomb/neckbreaker combination to Fenix (9:21)
Post match Archer cleans house without much effort again.
Nyla Rose, Jade Cargill and Vickie Guerrero are beating up Red Velvet. Ivelisse and Diamante come in for the save.
Abadon vs. Tesha Price
Price looks scared to death and being thrown across the ring makes it even worse. Abadon hammers away in the corner and hits the Widow's Peak for the pin at 1:12.
Result: Abadon b. Tesha Price – Widow's Peak (1:12)
Post match the beating continues until Hikaru Shida makes the save with a heck of a kendo stick shot to the head. Abadon sits up and Shida and Price bail in a hurry.
The Inner Circle is ready to destroy Orange Cassidy.
Tony Schiavone is in the ring to interview Kenny Omega….who arrives in a helicopter with Don Callis. After the big entrance, Tony talks about how he has never been more disgusted than he was when Don Callis interfered last week. Callis talks about Tony Khan welcomed him into his home and then Callis screwed him over. Callis: "Welcome to the wrestling business kid."
This might have been a bigger screwjob than Montreal because the AEW Title raises the stakes. Callis gives us a fast version of last night's Impact promo: he has known Omega since Omega was ten and the plan has been in place for years. Now Callis, as the invisible hand, has pushed Omega to the World Title after helping put together Omega vs. Chris Jericho in the Tokyo Dome, which brought AEW to fruition. Omega talks about how they had this ultimate plan and waited a year to pull it off.
Then last week it was a fine art performance and it was downright inspirational. Everyone fell for it from commentary to Jerry Lynn. What mattered most though was Jon Moxley fell for it and no one kicks out of the One Winged Angel. You haven't seen anything yet and Omega does goodbye and good night.
Dynamite Diamond Ring: Maxwell Jacob Friedman vs. Orange Cassidy
The Inner Circle and the Best Friends are here too. MJF jumps him to start and breaks the sunglasses to really make things serious. A Stundog Millionaire gets Cassidy out of trouble though and they head to the apron, with Cassidy missing a charge into the post. MJF ties Cassidy's fingers in the turnbuckle to make it worse and it's a chinlock back inside. Cassidy gets sent outside again and the Inner Circle gets in the group stomping. Sammy posts Cassidy and we take a break.
Back with MJF mocking the hands in the pockets, only to have Cassidy come back with the tornado DDT. MJF hits the top rope stomp to the arm but has to duck the Orange Punch. A double underhook shoulder breaker sets up a tiger driver for two and they're both down. Cassidy is back up to dive onto the Inner Circle but MJF gets in the Heat Seeker back inside. Jericho sends MJF the bat for the Eddie Guerrero treatment, but Cassidy doesn't even catch it, puts his hands in his pockets, and falls down.
MJF grabs the bat and gets caught, meaning the referee throws the bat outside. The Beach Break gets two so MJF is back with the Salt of the Earth, but Cassidy rolls out. The Orange Punch, with the bad hand, gets a delayed two and another one connects, but this time Wardlow puts the foot on the rope. Everyone brawls on the floor so here's Miro to deck Cassidy and put his hands in his pockets as MJF steals the pin at 13:23.
Result: Maxwell Jacob Friedman b. Orange Cassidy – Pin after interference from Miro (13:23)
Post match Miro, in his Versace sweater, wrecks the production staff, including throwing one off the stage.
Young Bucks b. Hybrid 2 – BTE Trigger to Angelico
FTR b. Varsity Blonds – Goodnight Express to Pillman
Dustin Rhodes b. 10 – Bulldog
Eddie Kingston/Butcher and the Blade b. Lucha Bros/Lance Archer – Powerbomb/neckbreaker combination to Fenix
Abadon b. Tesha Price – Widow's Peak
Maxwell Jacob Friedman b. Orange Cassidy – Pin after Miro interfered

St. Martin's Church Rheinfelden
The Christian Catholic town church of St. Martin in Rheinfelden is also called the «treasury of the Fricktal». The Stadtkirche St. Martin is a Christian Catholic church in Rheinfelden. It is around 1000 years old and features various architectural styles. Nowhere else are more opulently decorated interiors preserved.
The town church of Rheinfelden is dedicated to Saint Martin of Tours.
However, it has no other close connection to the story of the coat that the young Roman soldier shared with a poor beggar, but other, no less edifying stories are linked to this place of worship. In December 1147, Bernard of Clairvaux, the crusade preacher, stopped twice in Rheinfelden on a journey and is said to have performed miraculous healings in the vestibule of St Martin's Church.
Lenten cloth or hunger cloth.
One of the many rarities is the Lenten cloth, which dates from the 17th century. It was rediscovered by chance during clean-up work at the end of the 1990s and has been hanging above the altar in the choir during Lent ever since.
About 1000 years old church.
The church probably dates from the early 11th century. This «treasure trove of the Fricktal» encompasses all art-historical epochs from Romanesque to Dixhuitième, with Baroque and Rococo elements dominating the interior. From 1228 to 1870 the church was a canons' monastery. Since 1873 it has been a Christian Catholic church.

The effects of Covid-19 have shifted workers' compensation to focus in on occupational illnesses and diseases, even cancer. While cancer presumptions have been on the books for some states, over 20 states modified their presumptions since the start of 2021. Traditionally cancer presumptions are exclusively for firefighters as their risk of becoming ill is significantly higher than most occupations. However, legislators are turning their attention to modifying or expanding eligibility to other occupations particularly those in the first responder category as new research continues to develop. For a number of statehouses, the pandemic exposed significant coverage gaps in workers' compensation that legislators are increasingly looking to address.
Cancer is the second leadingi cause of death in the U.S., just behind heart disease, according to the Center for Disease Control (CDC). Since 2001, innovative cancer treatments improved outcomes, decreasing cancer death rates in the last 20 years by twenty-seven percent (27%). Risk factors for developing cancer vary but include where you live, how you eat, age, genetics, lifestyle activity, and what you do for work. These factors differ significantly from person to person and require a largely individualized approach for assessment.
Overall, cancer tends to be more prevalent in men, with a 1 in 2 chance of developing cancer in their lifetime compared to 1 in 3 for women. However, fatality rates for men and women are about the same at 1 in 5, according to the American Cancer Societyii. While cancer risk varies from person to person, it is more common in certain occupations.
CDC Cancer Map 2018
Occupationsiii with recorded higher risksiv of cancers include:
Chemical exposure, being in the sun for too long, asbestos, and similar risks can all contribute to a cancer diagnosis, according to Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA), the International Agency for Research on Cancer, The World Health Organization, and the National Institute for Occupational Safety & Health (NIOSH). The American Journal of Epidemiologyv says that even white-collar office jobs with prolonged sitting raise the chances of developing cancer as there is a higher likelihood of increased blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol, and weight gain.
In response to certain occupational conditions furthering the risk of cancer, several protections and regulations were put in place. Most of these protections come from federal legislation, such as the Toxic Substances Control Act modified by the Environmental Protection Agencyvi (EPA) and OSHA's permissible exposure limits (PEL's)vii. Rules and policies by each agency significantly influence workplace safety standards nationally. However, states propped up their own protective measures as well.
One of the more comprehensive methods to protect workers with significant risk due to their job duties is through workers' compensation protections on the federal and state levels. Nearly every state permits a workers' compensation presumption for cancer and chronic illnesses or a similar alternative program. However, the degree of coverage can vary greatly by state, and the burden of proof may be more challenging to demonstrate in certain states. Occupations also significantly differ in workers' compensation coverage for cancer, with just a few states allowing cancer presumption for professions outside of first responder groups. Nonetheless, legislative leaders on both sides of the aisle supported presumptions/protections in some fashion, particularly for firefighters, police, and paramedics.
First Responders
Workers' compensation presumptions for first responders garnered significant attention following the 9/11 attacks and through the thick of the covid-19 pandemic. Both circumstances demonstrated the importance first responders have within society and the essential services they provide amid potentially dangerous circumstances. While many 9/11 firefighters, medics, and police officers suffered from significant scrapes, cuts, bruises, smoke inhalation, and similar injuries, for many, the injuries they incurred did not end on that day.
Of the 82,818 first responders registered with the CDC's 9/11 World Trade Center Health programviii, approximately 15,500+ subsequently developed a form of cancer. These numbers reflect the 9/11 attacks in New York City, The Pentagon, and the crash site near Shanksville, PA. The most common cancers developed amongst this group include non-melanoma skin, prostate, breast, melanoma, lymphoma, thyroid, and lung cancers. Male first responders from 9/11 overwhelmingly present a much higher risk of developing cancer or illness. 9/11 first responders specifically saw a 25% increased risk of prostate cancer, 50% in thyroid cancer, and a 41% higher risk of developing leukemia compared to the general population. Although the 9/11 first responders saw higher cancer rates because of the nature of their work, they were also 35% moreix likely to survive than the general population. Researchers from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine partially attributex this decreased mortality rate to high-quality care from federal and state programs, including workers' compensation.
National and international data consistently show first responders are more likely to develop cancer than other occupations. These findings are especially the case for firefighters who constantly engage with burning fumes and chemical substances. Today, firefighters' leading cause of death in the United States is cancerxi. A CDC-backed studyxii released in 2017 shows that cancer rates among firefighters were 10% higher than the general population and 14% higher when it comes to cancer-related deaths. The International Association of Firefighters (IAFF) says that 66% of career firefightersxiii between 2002-2019 passed away from cancer. IAFF officials note that most cancers are related to the respiratory tract (lung, mesothelioma), gestational system, and kidneys. Firefighters experience two times the risk of developing mesothelioma and take on a 50%+ risk than the general population when it comes to being diagnosed with multiple myeloma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and skin cancer. Higher incidences of brain, prostate, and colon cancers are also observed. Today only two statesxiv, Delaware and South Carolina, lack significant cancer coverage for firefighters.
Police officers and EMT's while reporting lower rates of cancer than firefighters, were more at risk for certain cancers. A comprehensive study by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) foundxv that police officers between 1976-2006 in the Northeast U.S. region saw a greater risk of developing Hodgkin's lymphoma and brain cancer. Other studies In Washingtonxvi, Oregon, and New Jerseyxvii confirmed similar findings of increased cancer risks. Initial data from the Journal of Emergency Medical Servicesviii also display higher cancer diagnoses for paramedics.
Several states implemented changes or sought to review existing cancer coverage in response to the covid-19 pandemic's effect on front-line workers. In 2021, Arizona (SB1451), Maine (LD213), Michigan (H4171,4172), Nebraska (LB432), New Hampshire (HB385), New York (S4408), and in 2022 Oregon (H4113), Utah (HB287), Virginia (SB562/HB1042) & Washington (SB5890) passed cancer presumption alterations in their respective states. States such as AK, CA, MA, ME, MN, NC, OH, SC, TN, VA, VT, WV also proposed changes to their cancer presumptions laws since 2021. Over 20 states proposed or enacted changes to their cancer presumption laws in the last two years.
The modifications to state statutes vary in severity and groups covered for each individual state. While some states may explicitly list cancers eligible for a presumption, others may be broader in their legislative language to be more inclusive of rarer forms of cancer. Most of the time the legislature will formally pass cancer presumption changes. Nevertheless, some states will grant their state agencies the authority to create rules and regulate what cancers and occupations are eligible for coverage. States may even alter their statutes/regulatory rules in ways to accommodate their respective workforces. For example, presumption laws on the federal level and on the west coast look to improve firefighter benefits as wildfire issues continue to trouble the region. This precedent can also be observed in states within Appalachiaxix, where coal mining leads to increased rates of black lung disease.
Of the states that enacted presumption laws recently, New York, Michigan, and Washington added occupations eligible to their state presumption lists to safeguard benefit coverage. New York's enacted bill provides extended coverage to airport firefighters. On the other hand, Michigan added forest fire officers and rescue crews to its workers' compensation cancer eligibility. Washington state's new law uniquely enhanced benefits for workers handling radiologically hazardous materials, expanding coverage to workforces outside of the first responder category.
The state of Washington previously passed a bill in 2018 to provide cancer coverage to workers at the Hanford Federal Nuclear site, which the federal government is currently challenging before the Supreme Court. The challenge is not because of a disagreement over whether workers' compensation protections should cover workers at the site but if the state holds the authority to enforce state workers' compensation laws on a federal site. Arguments for the case are currently being heard before the Supreme Court, where it is likely to favor the federal government's authority. Washington's HB5890 passed this year and signed into law is an attempt not to overstep the federal government's authority while also providing cancer coverage to workers handling radiologic waste in the state.
States such as Arizona, Oregon, and Maine's enacted changes show an increased emphasis on female firefighters' health. These states added female-related cancers to the state's presumption list to ensure equity in a historically male-dominated occupation. Arizona added ovarian and breast cancers to their state presumption list. Whereas Maine and Oregon added gynecological-related cancers to their presumption list, making their presumptions more comprehensive by covering female reproductive cancers in a broader sense. Currently, it is estimated there are approximately 6,200xx career female firefighters throughout the U.S.
Unknown to most, volunteer firefighters make up most firefighters in the U.S. It is approximated that nearly 70%xxi of U.S. firefighters are volunteers. Volunteers are usually not paid, or if they are, it is in the form of a stipend or commuting expenses. Although most states have presumptions for firefighters, volunteers are commonly excluded from these protections. With most firefighters in the country classified as volunteers, this lack of proper coverage is concerning, particularly for states with smaller budgets or within wide rural settings where such communities greatly depend on these services. This year the state of Utah, via HB287, enacted legislation to extend workers' compensation coverage to firefighters within the volunteer classification, which gives these volunteers critical protections while also assisting local departments with long-term retention and recruitment.
The majority of states emphasized the need to pass cancer presumption statutes to protect those facing a higher probability of a cancer diagnosis due to their occupational duties. Nonetheless, limitations and restrictions exist, such as filing deadlines, lifestyle practices, geographic constraints, and age requirements. These limitations can be seen with recently enacted legislation in Virginia (S562), where lawmakers agreed to bar claims for claimants with occupational diseases that are 65 years of age or older, regardless of the date of diagnosis, communication, or last injurious exposure in employment. Other state examples include:
Arizona's (Title 23-901.01) cancer presumption for police officers, while more comprehensive than most states, is similar to Virginia's in the fact that the state does not allow claimants with occupational diseases over the age of 65. Arizona police officers must also be assigned to 'hazardous' duty for at least five years to become eligible for the state's cancer presumption. This definition can be problematic for officers as hazardous could be interpreted in a fashion that could limit the number of claimants eligible. State statutes define hazardous duty as including regular assignment to "special operations, special weapons, and tactics, explosive ordinance disposal or hazardous materials response unit."
Texas, via SB2551, which became law in 2019, added specific types of cancer to its statutes, including colon, stomach, and prostate cancers. However, the bill only applies to active firefighters. This change excludes retired firefighters who, accompanied by age, may have a higher risk of developing cancer. It also contains provisions that mandate firefighters in order to qualify for benefits, must not be a smoker; the firefighter's partner, if applicable, must also be a non-smoker.
Wisconsin (Chapter 891-495) statutes require ten years at minimum service for firefighters to become qualified for benefits, which is a more extended timeframe than other states with existing presumptions. Like Texas, Wisconsin denies claims to those that smoke cigarettes. However, the state lists cancers with labels such as digestive or affecting the central nervous system, which can allow for more cancers to qualify rather than listing each individual cancer.
Maine (Title 39A Chapter 7 Section 328) limits claims for retired firefighters after ten years since their last active service. The state's presumption also excludes claims to injured workers over the age of 70. Maine's presumption is also slightly limited in the number of cancers eligible for benefits.
Judicial Implications
While nearly all states modified their statutes or regulatory procedures to alter occupationally related cancer claims, the presumptions are nearly always rebuttable. If a claim is contested, this can put a wrench in the injured worker's ability to receive benefits. Most presumptions being for first responders, these occupations usually experience significant denial rates. For example, Ohio reported that nearly half of occupational disease claims were denied or disputed. Since 2012, Texas experienced a much higher denial rate, with 9 out of 10 firefighters being refused benefits. Denial of cancer coverage, even with a presumption, is common in workers' compensation as many municipalities and employers who contest injured workers' claims say it is difficult to relate a cancer diagnosis to specific work-related duties. This leaves the courts as a crucial element in how presumptions are interpreted and enforced.
Arizona - Aguirre v. Industrial Commission of Arizona (ICA) gave an Arizona firefighter, Gilbert Aguirre, a second chance to claim workers' compensation. Aguirre, a 20-year veteran firefighter for the city of Goodyear fire department, claimed workers' compensation after his leukemia diagnosis. The insurance company for the city denied the claim, which Aguirre contested. During a hearing before the ICA, both Aguirre and the insurance company put forth medical experts who spoke on how the cancer is and isn't related to Aguirre's duties as a firefighter. ICA held that Aguirre could not proceed to claim benefits as his claim lacked evidence that his cancer is closely related to his occupational requirements. Nevertheless, Aguirre refuted this conclusion, and the Arizona Court of Appeals agreed with Aguirre that the ICA did not hold enough "specific evidence" to deny his claim. This ruling allowed Aguirre to re-file for workers' compensation. In 2021, the state legislature enhanced firefighter cancer workers' compensation language via SB1451 to ensure more claims were accepted.
Pennsylvania – City of Philadelphia Fire Department v. Sladek affirmed that an injured firefighter need only produce evidence that it is possible that the carcinogen (fumes, smoke, exposure) in question is the cause of the type of cancer from which he or she suffers. Once the firefighter-claimant shows this casual relationship, the burden of proof switches to the employer, who then must show a specific, non-firefighting cause of the claimant's cancer. From there the court concluded that it is no longer sufficient for the employer's medical expert witness to simply attest that the firefighter's cancer may or may not possibly be caused by a Group 1 carcinogen. This more specified requirement works in favor of injured workers, pushing the burden of proof back to the employer to show particular causation that is non-work related. However, the court does say that the firefighter's claim must be in accordance with the Frye standard under rule 702 of Pennsylvania's Evidence Rules. This standard entails that the scientific community generally accepts the firefighters' medical evidence claim before it is considered admissible.
Rhode Island – Lang v. Municipal Employees Retirement System established that existing state statutes did in fact, not have a conclusive cancer presumption for state firefighters. Kevin Lang, a 16-year veteran of the city of Cranston fire department, applied for benefits after his colon cancer diagnosis in 2014. The Municipal Employee's Retirement System denied his case as he could not show that his cancer "arose out of and in the course of employment", meaning Lang could not prove his cancer is connected directly because of his occupational duties as a firefighter. In response to the decision, Lang argued that state statutes included a presumption that presumed all cancers contracted by firefighters were work-related. Although the appellate court held in favor of Lang, the Municipal Employees Retirement System contested the manner bringing it to the state supreme court, leading to a fractured decision. The high court acknowledged that firefighters take on more health risks for their job, which is more likely than others to lead to higher cancer rates. However, justices disagreed that state statutes include a conclusive presumption for firefighters that all cancers developed are related to their work. State law deems occupational cancers "as a "a cancer arising out of his or her employment as a firefighter, due to injury from exposures to smoke, fumes, or carcinogenic, poisonous, toxic, or chemical substances while in the performance of active duty in the fire department." Justices said that while protections for firefighters exist, they believed the legislature "intended that an occupational cancer must be proven before a firefighter is entitled to receive occupational cancer disability benefits." The court's decision reversed the initial conclusion in favor of Lang, citing its belief that state laws regarding cancer benefits for firefighters were not a formal presumption. Thus, firefighters seeking cancer benefits must accurately prove a more than a casual connection between their work-related duties and their specific cancer. In 2020, the state legislature passed a conclusive presumption for firefighters in response to the court decision.
Cancer presumptions can be incredibly intricate, depending on the state. While several statehouses upgraded or reconfigured their state regulations and statutes recently, many injured workers still fall through the cracks in the system. States may ease or modify requirements for injured workers with cancer to better qualify. However, lacking a formal state presumption makes proving a cancer claim exceedingly tumultuous particularly for injured first responders who encounter denials on a constant basis in numerous states. Convoluted statutory language can also put injured workers at the mercy of their respective state courts, potentially jeopardizing comprehensive cancer care for injured workers.
Although coverage ranges from state to state, progress on these issues is taking hold. Since the start of covid, over one third of the states modified or proposed changing their laws regarding cancer to protect first responders and certain high-risk occupations to ensure the workers' compensation benefits they require. There is also momentum to expand cancer presumptions to other occupations outside of first responders, as seen in Washington with nuclear waste management workers and in California, where a bill recently passed the state senate to provide cancer coverage to healthcare staff. With more in-depth research and increased attention to workplace safety, it is expected that more presumptions for first responders and high-risk jobs will continue to be proposed and discussed in statehouses in every area of the country. For now, injured workers that developed cancer and suspect it is work-related should closely review their state's existing cancer presumptions and look to relevant case law when filing a claim.

Book of Fair Isle Knitting
From Alice Starmore:
"This is the book that took an esoteric knitting technique out of Scotland and introduced it to the world. I was asked to write it in 1985 by a US publisher and it took me two years to complete. I finished it in 1987 and the book was published in 1988.
"This is an historic book because it marks the very first time that instructions for stranded knitting with steeks appeared in print. I endeavoured to write a complete instruction manual for this old Scots art. I set the scene with a comprehensive exposition of its history, from its beginnings in Fair Isle to its commercialisation in mainland Shetland. Then all the many technicalities were explained and illustrated in full. And finally I proceeded to my ultimate aim – to show, through numerous innovative examples, how the art could be extended in new and exciting directions.
"My endeavours were immediately successful and the book caused an explosion of interest – all around the world but particularly in North America. Now, after more than thirty years and over 200,000 copies sold, the book is still in print and is instructing yet another generation of knitters. I am grateful that I was asked to write it and I am pleased that its success has been so enduring.
"'Tis guid that sic an auld Scots sang should set the warld a'ringing,
And guid the singer kent it weel, afore she started singing."

Stocks tumbled in the last 30 minutes of trading on Thursday amid the biggest price swings since 1997.
The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index slumped 2.1 percent to close at 3,086.60, wiping out an earlier gain of as much as 1.6 percent, while the Shenzhen Component Index retreated 1.5 percent to 9,739.89.
Volatility has surged to the highest in 18 years with diminished turnover, as investors concern over the economic slowdown is deepening. According to Bloomberg, trading volumes in Shanghai were 17 percent below the 30-day average.
The official manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index dropped to 49.7 in August, marking a three-year low, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.
The contraction after five successive months of expansion indicated that China's economy will face more downward risks in the third quarter of the year, said experts.
Zhang Yujun, the assistant chairman of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, is being investigated for "serious violations of laws and disciplines", announced the nation's top anti-graft body on Wednesday evening.
The CSI 300 Index slid 2.2 percent to 3,237 at the close.

The Clock/Sahat Tower complex is located at the entrance to the Upper Town of the Belgrade Fortress.
Click on the map to get directions.
The whole complex was named after the tower on which the clock was located, but the gate was formerly known as Kornar's gate, after architect Andrea Cornaro who had designed it. Andrea Cornaro was a Venetian architect, who built for both the Austrians, during their short rule between 1688 and 1690, and for the Ottomans, after Belgrade had once again fallen under the Turkish rule. His enigmatic life has led to many Austrians labeling him as a spy who worked for the Ottoman Empire. His turbulent life ended near today's city of Pirot, where he has spent the last years of his life.
The complex consists of gates with matching side rooms, the Clock Tower, and partially demolished Upper Town walls. The current Clock Tower was built during the end of the 17th century and beginning of the 18th century, under the supervision of Andrea Cornaro. It was built during the turmoil over Belgrade between the Austrian and Ottoman empires. Later parts of the gate, which are now used as the Museum of the Belgrade Fortress, were built during the second Austrian rule in the period of 1717 to1739. The clock tower was built from 1740 to 1789, and then the tower was renovated in the middle of the 19th century. The clock tower is one of the few buildings part of the Belgrade Fortress that did not suffer any significant damage, meaning that even today it preserves all the authentic architectural and stylistic features.
