Simple DNS Resolver v1.5
Author: Emmanuel KARTMANN.
Last Update: June 1st, 2002
This ATL COM component provides very simple Internet name resolving functionality (Domain Name System or DNS). For example, it can automagically find the email (SMTP) servers available for your machine (see "DNS Magic: Who's my email server?" for details).
This version has several bug fixes and finds DNS domain better than before (it uses the complete "search list" as defined in the TCP/IP configuration).
Version 1.4 was a complete rewriting of the DNS component. Instead of using a porting of the BIND 8 library (from UNIX to NT), it relies on the Microsoft Platform SDK (August 2001), which, at last, contains a decent DNS API. Please refer to the implementation section for more details.
For those of you who are using Windows 95/98/Millenium (where the Microsoft DNS API is not available), you have two solutions: get the older versions of my component (ask me) or simply copy the DNSAPI.DLL file from a Windows 2000 installation to the Windows\System directory of your system (Thanks to Hans for this tip).
- What is DNS?
- The DNS Protocol
- Resource Records
- Well Known DNS Implementations
- Resolver Tool: nslookup
- DNS Magic: Who's my email server?
- SAMPLE CODE (VBScript)
- an ip address (e.g. "18.104.22.168")
- a hostname (e.g. "www.kartmann.org")
- a canonical name (i.e. the real name of an IP alias)
- a mail server name
- etc...
- Reply immediately if it knows the answer (i.e. if the query is about data in its name space)
- Reply immediately if the answer is in its cache (DNS data has a Time-To-Live; the data in the cache must not have expired yet).
- Reply with a alternate server name for the request (non-recursive queries). The resolver must then send the same query to the alternate server.
- Send queries to foreign name servers, wait for answers and transmit them to the resolver (recursive queries).
What is DNS?
The Domain Name System (DNS) is a distributed host information database used in the Internet.
Most (if not all) Internet software (e.g. ping, telnet, ftp, web browsers, etc...) use the DNS database to resolve IP addresses so that you, the user, can type the name of a machine instead of its IP address (user-friendly, isn't it?).
Let me give you an example: when you type a Web address in your favorite browser (e.g. "www.kartmann.org"), the browser fetches the corresponding IP address in the DNS database and uses this address to connect to the Web server.
Information held in the DNS database can be:
Information in the DNS is held in Resource Records (RR). RRs come in several types, which correspond to the varieties of data that can be contained in the DNS. Many RFCs (most of them still experimental) propose additional RR types, like the geographical location (RFC 1712), digital certificates (RFC 2538), cryptographic keys (RFC 2536), etc...
A application or library (or COM object) acting as a DNS client is called a resolver.
The DNS Protocol
Application programs can use the domain name system via a resolver library (or COM object in our case). The resolver sends queries corresponding to the library function, and waits for responses from the local name server. The local name server can either:
- "A" (value 1) a host address
- "CNAME" (value 5) the canonical name for an alias
- "PTR" (value 12) a domain name pointer
- "MX" (value 15) a mail exchanger
- etc...
- "IN" (value 1) the Internet
- "CS" (value 2) the CSNET class (Obsolete)
- "CH" (value 3) the CHAOS class (MIT)
- "HS" (value 4) Hesiod (MIT)
- berkeley sockets: the berkeley C library provides a very basic implementation of the DNS via functions gethostbyname (resolve an hostname into its ip address) and gethostbyaddr (reverse: from the ip address, finds the corresponding hostname).
- Winsock: on Windows, you have the same functions (and their asynchronous versions WSAAsyncGetHostByName and WSAAsyncGetHostByAddr).
- BIND: the Berkeley Internet Name Domain is the most popular implementation of the DNS specifications (full implementation with client and server software).
- Start a MS-DOS command prompt and type the nslookup command:
C:\> nslookup Default Server: mynameserver.mydomain.com Address: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX > myhost.mydomain.com Server: mynameserver.mydomain.com Address: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX Name: myhost.mydomain.com Address: YYY.YYY.YYY.YYY > yourhost.mydomain.com *** mynameserver.mydomain.com can't find yourhost.mydomain.com: Non-existent domain
- Start a MS-DOS command prompt and type the nslookup command:
C:\> nslookup Default Server: youserver.yourdomain Address: X.X.X.X > set type=MX > microsoft.com microsoft.com MX preference = 10, mail exchanger = mail1.microsoft.com microsoft.com MX preference = 20, mail exchanger = mail2.microsoft.com microsoft.com MX preference = 30, mail exchanger = mail3.microsoft.com microsoft.com MX preference = 40, mail exchanger = mail4.microsoft.com microsoft.com MX preference = 50, mail exchanger = mail5.microsoft.com
Queries and Responses are usually sent via UDP (datagrams), in one (or more) packets (some implementations use TCP instead of UDP).
Resource Records
Information in the DNS is held in Resource Records (RR); when a server replies to a resolver, it sends
resource records in its response. RRs come in different types and formats, as describes in this section.
General Resource Record Format
All RRs have the same top level format shown below:
|an owner name, i.e., the name of the node to which this resource record pertains.
|two octets containing one of the RR TYPE codes. Valid types include:
|two octets containing one of the RR CLASS codes. Valid classes are:
|a 32 bit signed integer that specifies the time interval (in seconds) that the resource record may be cached before the source of the information should again be consulted. Zero values are interpreted to mean that the RR can only be used for the transaction in progress, and should not be cached.
|an unsigned 16 bit integer that specifies the length in octets of the RDATA field.
|a variable length string of octets that describes the resource. The format of this information varies according to the TYPE and CLASS of the resource record. See below for list of the most common types.
Standard Resource Record Formats
Internet Address Format (A)
The A RR contains an IPv4 address (32 bits):
Canonical Name Format (CNAME)
The CNAME RR contains a resource name (sequence of labels):
Domain Name Pointer Format (PTR)
The PTR RR contains a resource name (sequence of labels):
Mail eXchanger Format (MX)
The MX RR contains a preference (integer, 16 bits) and a resource name (sequence of labels):
Well Known DNS Implementations
Resolver Tool: nslookup
Windows NT, Windows 2000 and UNIX systems provide a DNS resolver via the command-line program nslookup (probably a port of the nslookup program shipped with BIND). With this program, you can read information from the DNS database.
Here's an example sesssion of the nslookup program:
In Windows 2000, you'll find an implementation of nslookup. Type 'help' to
get the full syntax of nslookup commands:
> help
Commands: (identifiers are shown in uppercase, [] means optional)
NAME - print info about the host/domain NAME using default server
NAME1 NAME2 - as above, but use NAME2 as server
help or ? - print info on common commands
set OPTION - set an option
all - print options, current server and host
[no]debug - print debugging information
[no]d2 - print exhaustive debugging information
[no]defname - append domain name to each query
[no]recurse - ask for recursive answer to query
[no]search - use domain search list
[no]vc - always use a virtual circuit
domain=NAME - set default domain name to NAME
srchlist=N1[/N2/.../N6] - set domain to N1 and search list to N1,N2, etc.
root=NAME - set root server to NAME
retry=X - set number of retries to X
timeout=X - set initial time-out interval to X seconds
type=X - set query type (ex. A,ANY,CNAME,MX,NS,PTR,SOA,SRV)
querytype=X - same as type
class=X - set query class (ex. IN (Internet), ANY)
[no]msxfr - use MS fast zone transfer
ixfrver=X - current version to use in IXFR transfer request
server NAME - set default server to NAME, using current default server
lserver NAME - set default server to NAME, using initial server
finger [USER] - finger the optional NAME at the current default host
root - set current default server to the root
ls [opt] DOMAIN [> FILE] - list addresses in DOMAIN (optional: output to FILE)
-a - list canonical names and aliases
-d - list all records
-t TYPE - list records of the given type (e.g. A,CNAME,MX,NS,PTR etc.)
view FILE - sort an 'ls' output file and view it with pg
exit - exit the program
DNS Magic: Who's my email server?
There's a strong link between Internet email and the DNS. Mail servers use the DNS information database to route email messages from the originator to the recipient.
Basically, when the recipient email address is "email@example.com", the mail server searches the mail server (or Mail eXchanger) for domain "somewhere.com" in the DNS database. It then connects to the mail server (on port 25) and sends the email using SMTP.
Mail servers are registered in the DNS database as "Mail eXchanger" ("MX") records. Note that there can be several registered mail servers for a given domain (with a preference assigned to each server).
Using nslookup, you can find the email server of your domain, as shown in the sample session below.
The lowest preference indicates the best (primary) mail server. A mailer would try it first and if it cannot connect to this server, it would use other servers (by order of preference).
You can test this "DNS Magic" by using the nslookup program shipped with Windows 2000, or with the DNS Magic HTML page. This component provides method ISimpleDNSClient::GetEmailServers() to find the registered email servers for a given domain.
For more about email and DNS, please see the reference documentation.
COMPONENT FEATURESThis component:
- implements the basics of DNS, as defined in RFC1034 and RFC1035,
- uses the resolver cache, queries first with UDP, then retries with TCP if the response is truncated
- asks the server to perform recursive resolution on behalf of the client to resolve the query
- finds DNS server addresses in local configuration (using API or Windows Registry)
- provides extended error information (ISupportErrorInfo and IErrorInfo are implemented)
- provides very small executable: 52 KB (MinSize) to 60 KB (MinDependency)
- requires no Graphical User Interface: the component can be used in non-GUI applications, like a Windows NT Service.
- is integrated with SimpleEmailClient (another component): the latter calls method GetEmailServers to automatically find SMTP servers
- runs on Windows 2000 (relies on Windows DNS API from the Platform SDK, August 2001)
- compiles with VC++ 6.0 SP5
USAGETo use this component:
- create an instance of the component,
- (optionally) put/get properties from interface ISimpleDNSClient:
- ServerAddresses
- Separator
- call a method from interface ISimpleDNSClient:
- handle errors (try/catch in C++, On Error Resume Next in VBScript)
SAMPLE CODE (VBScript)
Dim oDNS ' Create object instance Set oDNS = CreateObject("Emmanuel.SimpleDNSClient.1") ' Declare output variable Dim found_names ' Set the server address(es) oDNS.ServerAddresses = "188.8.131.52" ' Set separator for output variable (if multiple results are found) oDNS.Separator = ", " ' (1) Find IP address of hostname "www.microsoft.com" (Internet class, type A) On Error Resume Next oDNS.Resolve "www.microsoft.com", found_names, "C_IN", "T_A" If Err <> 0 Then MsgBox Err.Description Else ' Show resolved names (within dialog box) MsgBox "Found names:" & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & found_names End If ' (2) Find Email Servers for domain "microsoft.com" On Error Resume Next oDNS.GetEmailServers "microsoft.com", found_names If Err <> 0 Then MsgBox Err.Description Else ' Show resolved names (within dialog box) MsgBox "Found names:" & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & found_names End If
Please refer to the test HTML files "TestSimpleDNSResolver.htm" and "TestDNSMagic.htm" for a full VBSsript example (see GUI below).
- Base API is the new Windows 2000 DNS API
This component relies on the Windows DNS API provided by the Windows Platform SDK (August 2001). The previous version was based on a porting of the BIND resolver library. Due to the high maintenance cost associated with this library, I decided to drop it when the DNS API came out. See the Component online documentation for more details.
- Automatic Conversion of reverse lookups (PTR)
If your request is a reverse (IP address-> IP name) lookup (type PTR), then the component silently converts request to a in-arpa format. That is, if you request a resolution of type PTR for IP address "18.104.22.168", then the component will send a resolution request for "18.104.22.168.in-addr.arpa" (PTR). The result will be "www.international.microsoft.com".
- Find Email Server automatically
The method GetEmailServers sends a request of type MX (Mail eXchanger) in order to find registered servers for a domain. It's only a shortcut for the Resolve method.
- Ignored Parameter: Resource Class
Due to limitations in the current Windows DNS API, the parameter BResourceClass is ignored by the Resolve method (you should always use the default class "C_IN" for Internet Class).
- Ignored Property: ServerAddresses
Due to limitations (bugs ?) in the current Windows DNS API, the property ServerAddresses is ignored by the Resolve method (the component always uses the local machine DNS configuration to find the DNS servers).
You can download the Microsoft Platform SDK from the Microsoft Web Site:
- Test All DNS Resource Records (although all RR types are implemented, most of them couldn't be tested)
- Support DNS Security extensions (RFC 2535, "Domain Name System Security Extensions")
- Book: "DNS and BIND", by Paul Albitz & Cricket Liu, O'Reilly & Associates
If you have to deal with DNS, I strongly recommend you to read this book: it's a very good presentation of DNS, from the protocol itself to the configuration tricks of a DNS server (using BIND).

Summer is finally here, which means peak vacation season and employees out of the office. For those who own their own companies, however, taking vacations and disconnecting is never easy, as business continues as usual while owners are away. In fact, according to the 2013 ADT Safety Data Index, more than one-third of small-business owners polled agree that running a business keeps them up at night, and the same number feel that running a business does not allow them to have work/life balance.
The good news is, with a few technology tips and tricks, business owners can enjoy a well-deserved break with the peace of mind knowing that their business remains secure and productive. As the country celebrates National Small Business Week June 17 to 21, 2013, consider these important tips to protect your business during the summer and all year long:
1. Create an electronic security plan to protect your assets
Whether your employees type on computers all day, have electronic cash registers or monitor inventory from smartphones or tablets, having the most up-to-date online security measures in place is critical. Be sure to install spam blockers, firewalls, virus filters and keep current on patches and other critical computer upgrades that keep your system and business protected. Business owners should also consider changing passwords on a monthly basis and making employees do the same.
2. Consider purchasing a security and business automation solution
Security and business automation solutions can help protect your business and employees, plus enable you to monitor productivity remotely, which is great for summer travel periods. Moreover, 84 percent of survey respondents in the ADT Safety Data Index agree that they are always looking for ways to make running a business a little less stressful.
A solution like ADT Pulse offers a variety of features perfect for small-business owners. Whether traveling near or far, you can receive email or text alerts when your business doors are locked or unlocked, or private rooms are accessed. Secure video also helps you oversee daily activities, including arrival and departure of employees, and customer visits. In addition, security and business automation solutions can help you manage energy consumption by being able to turn off lights and adjust thermostats from the other side of the globe, so long as you have an Internet connection.
3. Perform background checks on employees, no matter what the role
Hiring qualified employees with a reputable background is crucial, particularly during the summer when many small businesses hire seasonal staff. While background checks can sometimes be an additional cost for small businesses, it's particularly important for organizations with only a handful of employees, to ensure that assets are well-protected.
4. Secure or properly dispose of sensitive documents
Warm weather often means more criminals out and about looking for easy targets, and they aren't above dumpster diving. Shred all proprietary information that has been printed. A cross-cut shredder provides the best option for destroying confidential documents. Lock away sensitive information each night at close of business. Develop guidelines for employees who handle sensitive information – for both the business and customers.
Small business owners deserve vacations just like anyone else and following these important safety steps can help them rest assure that their businesses are safe and secure.
About the Survey
The ADT Safety Data Index was conducted by Edelman Berland and polled 497 Small Business Owners in the United States. The survey was fielded online from February 8-18, 2013. The margin of error for Small Business Owners (n=497) is +/- 4.4 percentage points.

Several chemical additives have been used to assure polymerization in CpG islands.The aim of the present work was to design a PCR enhancer mixture in order to amplify GC-rich genes. Fragments of IRS2 and HNF1a genes were analyzed using EMBOSS CpG Report Software. Primers were designed with the Primer3 Software and were tested with ePCR Software. Three additives were used: BSA (0.1µg/µL), DMSO (5%) and formamide (5%), in five PCR assays, two using one additive, two combining two additives and one with all additives. DNA sequences were amplified with the following enzymes: Native Taq, recombinant Taq and platinum Taq DNA polymerase. Amplicon quality was examined by sequencing. HNF1a gene was amplified without additives; however, the sequences were not amplified and showed purity problems in sequencing. The gene fragments IRS2 with CpG islands were amplified with additives DMSO, BSA and Formamida mixture, notwithstanding the enzyme used. These sequences were clean. DMSO-BSA-Formamide mixture can be a solution to obtain GC-rich DNA amplicons with such a high quality that it generates neat chromatograms during sequencing.

A survey released Thursday by the Coalition to Protect Retirement found 87% of Americans think retirement saving accounts should be "off limits" to Congress as a source of revenue. Among respondents who have a tax-deferred retirement plan, 95% agree.
Among the changes being proposed that would affect tax-deferred retirement accounts is the cap on retirement savings proposed in President Barack Obama's 2014 budget.
The survey was conducted in October by Juncture Strategies and ORC International among 1,011 adults. The coalition comprises the American Benefits Council, American Council of Life Insurers, American Society of Pension Professionals and Actuaries, the ERISA Industry Committee, ESOP Association, Insured Retirement Institute, Investment Company Institute, Plan Sponsor Council of America, Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, and the Society for Human Resource Management.
"Retirement savings incentives play an essential role in encouraging Americans to save and employers to sponsor retirement plans," Hank Jackson, president and CEO of SHRM, said in a statement on behalf of the Coalition. "This isn't just smart tax policy—it's proven good sense."
Two-thirds of respondents said saving for retirement was hard enough already and taking away or limiting tax-deferred status of some retirement plans will only make it harder, more confusing and more costly.
The survey found 68% of respondents said they would be less likely to vote for their member of Congress if they supported changes to retirement accounts' tax-deferred status. More than three-quarters of respondents who have a tax-deferred retirement plan agreed.
"Given the vast numbers of baby boomers who reach retirement age every day, retirement savings incentives are needed more than ever," Kenneth Bentsen Jr., president of SIFMA, said in a statement. "They are doing what they were intended to do — helping people who need them most to take responsibility for their own retirement security."
Brian Graff, CEO and executive director of ASPPA, noted that cutting tax benefits on retirement plans might raise revenue now, but would only cost more in the future. "If Congress reduces the benefits of offering and contributing to retirement savings, fewer people will save. The result: more of tomorrow's retirees will need to turn to the government for help, and that will mean more federal spending," he said in a statement.

Imagine a chapel filled with military couples. They range in marital experience from newlyweds with only a few months since their "I do's," to a seasoned couple who has celebrated 32 anniversaries. Servicemember ranks range from private to field grade officer. And those couples are all in that chapel for the same reason: to renew their wedding vows.
That's exactly what happened a couple weeks ago at Fort Stewart. Twenty-one couples proclaimed their love for each other all over again at a "Coin and Covenant" ceremony just before the brigade's deployment to Afghanistan. Each couple received a coin that was split in half, one half for the husband, the other for the wife, as a tangible reminder of the covenant part of the ceremony when they renewed their vows.
I'm sure you all just joined me in a collective, "Aww, that's the most romantic thing in the whole wide world!" That was my initial reaction when I first read the story too.
My second reaction? Wow. These spouses are marrying their servicemembers again despite the fact that they know precisely what they're getting themselves into.
I can't tell you how many times I've heard MilSpouses retell conversations they've had with non-military connected people who imply that we have no right to complain about our lives because we knew what we were getting into when we chose to marry into the military. I've had a few of those conversations myself, and they're so incredibly frustrating because my husband wasn't in the military when I married him. (Then of course, the discussion immediately turns to, "Well why in the world would you let him join the military?" But that's a whole other blog post.)
Even if my husband had already been in the Navy when I met him, I still wouldn't have known what I was getting into. There's no way I could have predicted what military life would look like. I don't care if you were a military brat who grew up to be a servicemember who majored in Military History and minored in Military Marriage in college. It's impossible to comprehend what life is like as a military spouse until you're smack dab in the middle of it yourself.
That's why it's even more of a romantic gesture in my eyes that these couples, and any military couple who renews their vows, chose to say "I do" again, this time with a knowledge they didn't have during their first walk down the aisle. They knew firsthand what they were getting into.
And they did it anyway.
In its own way, military life is rewarding, with opportunities for personal growth at every crazy twist and turn. Sometimes, it's even fun. But it's by no means easy. And we're often reminded of that when we look at our non-MilSpouse friends who live a few blocks over from their entire extended family in the same house they moved into after their honeymoon (because they were actually able to have a honeymoon) and who haven't lived half their marriages without their other half. On our less than stellar days, when those pangs of marital envy bubble to the surface, it's easy to wonder what we got ourselves into, to question if we would do it all over again if given a free pass to go back in time and take a different path.
I know what those 21 couples at Fort Stewart think. What do you think? Would you marry the military again if you knew then what you know now? Would you kick off a deployment with a vow renewal ceremony? And how do you respond to people who say, "You knew what you were getting into"?

GIMME SHELTER- Home alone: Get organized to go away
Q: I'm about to leave for a two-week cruise around the Bahamas, and I want to make sure my house doesn't fall apart while I'm gone. What steps should I take to get my house "vacation ready"?
A: One of the most important and obvious steps to take is stopping your mail or ensuring that someone else will pick up your packages while you're away. One of our clients told us the post office delivered a package while she was away and left it on her front porch. It rained all day and the package– and its contents– were ruined.
Stopping your mail temporarily with the post office is the most reliable option, as wires can sometimes get crossed with family or friends about mail pick-up. If too many letters pile up, your mail will be pulled, and you'll have to trek down to the post office. It's also important to put a vacation stop on all your newspapers or have a friend pick them up.
Be sure to leave your lights on to give the appearance that someone is home. Ideally, you should put them on a timer so that they shut off during the day and go on at night. Keep your thermostat on a timer or temperature control so the house stays at room temperature. We recommend keeping it at 78 in the summer and 68 in the winter.
Go through your pantry and fridge and dispose of any perishables that will decompose while you're away. You may even consider writing up a grocery list of things you'll need to stock up on upon return so you won't come back to an empty fridge.
Make arrangements for someone to care for your plants and animals while you're away. Sometimes it's best to take plants inside to a climate-controlled environment. Even if you don't have living creatures like plants or pets to worry about, it's a good idea to have a friend stop by the house and check on things. This is especially important if you plan to be gone for an extended period of time– two weeks or longer.
Something that may seem obvious but is often overlooked is making sure that all your windows and doors are secured and locked. We once had a client call us who was 100 miles away from home when she realized that she had left her garage door wide open!
If you need to have your rugs cleaned or any other maintenance preformed, a vacation can be the perfect time to get those things done. Rugs can take weeks to be professionally cleaned, and there's nothing like coming back to a clean house.

I like to make clusters of my elements in my layouts and use the eraser tool to remove areas of an element to reveal the element below. Unfortunately when you bring up the element you want to erase it only shows you that element and you have to guess at how much you want erased. I would like to be able to see all layers while I am erasing. I would also like to see an easier way to zoom in and out while erasing. Thank You

Head volleyball coach Linda Sagnelli was honored at the 21st Annual June Baker Higgins Conference and Inaugural Women of Influence Gala on Saturday, May 12th. Sagnelli has led the Blue Devil volleyball program to 200 victories on the court and a high level of academic success over the last 12 years.
The inaugural gala honored women who have significantly impacted CCSU or the wider community, made a significant contribution in the lives of women, diligently promoted women's rights, or have worked tirelessly to educate women. Proceeds from the event will benefit the June Baker Higgins Scholarship and other scholarships for women.
Sagnelli's squad continued a streak of nine consecutive Northeast Conference Tournament appearances in 2011.
During her time in New Britain, Sagnelli has posted double-digit victories each season and has had four 20-win campaigns. In addition to excelling on the court, Sagnelli's teams have performed well in the classroom, receiving the Team Academic Award from the American Volleyball Coaches Association on multiple occasions including a current streak of five consecutive years. To be recognized by the AVCA a team must maintain a cumulative grade point average of 3.3. The volleyball team has posted the highest GPA among varsity teams at CCSU each of the last five years.
Over her 12 seasons, her players have earned seven major postseason awards from the Northeast Conference and six Academic All-District honors from ESPN and CoSida. In addition to numerous All-NEC selections.
Sagnelli has been recognized as NEC Coach of the Year on three occasions and during her time as head coach at Iona College, she was named Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Coach of the Year for Volleyball and Softball. She is the only person in MAAC history to be named coach of the year in two sports.
Well respected in the volleyball community, Sagnelli held a position on the NCAA Regional Ranking Committee for three years and has been a member of the All-Region/All-American Selection Committee for four years.
A prominent member of the CCSU campus, Sagnelli has served in the Faculty Senate and is currently the chair of the Department Evaluation Committee, which she has served on for six years. While at Central, she has served on the NCAA Certification Steering Committee and the Gender Equity Committee, in addition to serving on numerous hiring committees.
While at Iona, Sagnelli wore a variety of hats, serving four years as an assistant athletics director and eleven as the school's senior women's administrator. She was responsible for overseeing all of the Gaels' women's athletic programs and served as an advisor and mentor to the women's coaching staff. She also directed Iona's intramurals program and served as chair of the MAAC Crew Championship Committee and on the MAAC Marketing Committee.
A graduate of C.W. Post, Sagnelli was inducted into her alma mater's Athletics Hall of Fame in 2008. As a student-athlete, she helped her team to an NCAA Tournament appearance and a top-10 ranking, while being named Most Valuable Player of a Division I/Division II AIAW Regional Championship as a senior in 1982.
Sagnelli was one of seven recipients of the women of influence award on Saturday. Fellow recipients included: Ms. Carol A. Ammon (Founder and former CEO Endo Pharmaceuticals), Dr. Joanne DiPlacido (Associate Professor of Psychology at Central Connecticut State University), The Honorable Carmen E. Espinosa (Judge Connecticut Appellate Court), Ms. Debra Goss (Manager, Division of Contract Compliance State of Connecticut Department of Transportation), Dr. Merle W. Harris (Educator Member, Connecticut Board of Regents for Higher Education) and Ms. Marlene Ibsen (Vice President, Community Relations,Travelers; CEO & President, Travelers Foundation).

What Stephen Strasburg Can Teach Fantasy Managers
by Eno Sarris //
The science surrounding young pitchers has never been set in stone. It's come a long way since Rany Jazayerli first debuted Pitcher Abuse Points in 1998. The "discovery" that there was such a thing as too many pitches for a young pitcher then led to some new ways of thinking about young pitchers, pitch counts, and innings limits. Tom Verducci furthered the research with his own findings, called the Verducci Effect, that young starters that jumped more than 30 innings from year to year were more likely to end up injured.
Of course it's not really that easy to just slap the 30-inning-increase limit on a young starter, especially when a team is in contention and under to pressure to win now. Plus, more rigorous research has not found such a hard cap to be completely useful for all pitchers. All innings are not created equal. More advanced studies look into pitches per inning and what types of pitches are more responsible for arm stress than others. The soft cap that many use in baseball is about 125% of the previous year's innings total, but that number is more of a general benchmark than one that has the power of multiple research findings behind it.
The case of Stephen Strasburg offers a teaching moment. The upside of a pitcher like Strasburg made him a mid-round fantasy pick with the potential to return early-round value…provided he could put together enough major league innings. That was up for debate as his innings limits were reported to be around 140 to 150 IP – but no hard cap was reported in the media. Then this weekend, Strasburg grabbed his elbow and called the trainer to the mound, and his owners joined Nationals fans in a collective gasp.
What Strasburg teaches us is not necessarily that young pitchers are more likely to hit the disabled list with elbow injuries. Rather, it's
that young pitchers are less likely to amass critical innings in the latter half of the season. Whether from a cap or from injury, they are just more likely to have their rotation spot skipped late in the year, or to be shut down completely.
Consider all the pitchers that have had the shutdown rumor associated into their name so far this year. Jaime Garcia, Mat Latos, Jonathon Niese, Mike Leake, Mike Minor and Strasburg himself have all been the object of innings-limits speculation from their front offices and the media alike. All of these men are good young pitchers that are vital to their fantasy teams. Jeremy Hellickson dominated in his first four big league starts. For his efforts, he got sent back to A-ball. The best-case scenario for fantasy owners the rest of this season is that he get recalled for a few September innings of middle relief.
Garcia has 141.1 innings already, and his career high came in A-ball with 155 innings. He might be good for another 25 innings by that measure, but it's complicated by his Tommy John surgery last year, and subsequent 33.2 innings pitched. His manager specifically said that the team was not going to limit its excellent young starter, but he also used 175 innings in his statement. With the Cards in the race (52% chance of making the playoffs according to Baseball Prospectus and their playoff odds), they'll probably push the limit with Garcia.
Latos, on the other hand, is on a Padres team that is 95% likely to make the postseason, and they'll need him in October. At 142.2 IP, he's already well past last year's 123 IP total and just a couple starts away from a soft cap situation. Since the Padres are far enough ahead, expect to see his starts skipped often down the stretch. Minor, on a Braves team with a 92% chance of making the playoffs, has already had his starts skipped. His 138.1 innings so far this year are well beyond the 110.2 innings he accumulated at Vanderbilt in 2009.
Leake and Niese are more likely to be shut down. Leake racked up 161 IP between Arizona State and the Arizona Fall League last year, but with his recent struggles the team demoted him to the bullpen at 138 innings anyway. The Mets have already openly contemplated shutting him down. They also have a 0.5% chance of making the playoffs, meaning there's no point risking it with their young right-hander.
Innings caps are no reason to avoid young pitchers altogether, but they do represent another risk that isn't inherent with veteran pitchers. Next year, when it comes time to decide between two pitchers of similar ilk, it's worth giving the veteran a slight nudge forward if late-year innings will be crucial for your team. And if you reach the All-Star break with a hot hand like Strasburg or Leake in your fantasy rotation, start aggressively shopping him for a trade.
