Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
The teachers are the backbone of this school! We love Wauka Mountain and the sweet, hard working students and faculty.
This school is by far the most child friendly place I have ever seen. The teachers care about their students. Academics is a priority.
I certainly hope everyone will use their own judgement, the August review is way off base. The author must have a an axe to grind for some unfortunate reason. Wauka Mountain is such a nice family school. I am so proud that my children have such a fufilling school to attend. We are certainly blessed with our staff. This school has been the best kept secret in Hall county and it is only getting better.
I think Wauka Mtn. is an excellent school! Both of my children attend there as well as I did. I have seen nothing short of great progress with my children.
I have two great grandsons that attend Wauka Mountain and I think it is a wonderful school. Both of these children are learning the great values that we want our schools to teach. Thank you Wauka Mountain staff. Keep up the great work. Joyce Mashburn
This is our second year at Wauka Mountain Elementary. This is also principal's Joe Dinnan's second year and I am quite impressed with the direction she is taking the school. While, there is always room for improvement, this school has heart. It has a sweet feeling that flows from the hallways, that can only come from the legacy of families that have grown up in this school. I feel blessed to have chosen this area to live in.
This school was a huge disappointment to us. The teachers are unmotivated and lack creativity. The parents and students are unfriendly and do not make any effort to include or get to know anyone outside their little group. The lack of parent involvement is very disappointing, and all the work is done by the same select group of parents. The students are far too worldy for their years, and the subject matter of their conversation and their bad language is shocking in kids their age. The academics are very poor. My children were very bored with the curriculum and unchallenged. The city elementary schools in Gainesville offer a far superior education and are much stricter with discipline. Safety is a huge concern. I am so relieved my children no longer attend Wauka Mtn. and are in a far better school system

If you enjoy a good steak, listen up! A certain type of tick could make you develop a red meat allergy.
"That you could get a red beef allergy from a tick bite, yeah that's very surprising," said Damian Wall, a father who's son was just recently bitten by a tick.
"Then he got a severe fever. So we took him down to the hospital," said Wall. "(They) said he was bitten by one of the lone star ticks."
According to a researcher at Mississippi State University the lone star tick carries a certain sugar in it, that is also present in red meat. Once you're bitten, you become sensitized to that sugar. So the next time you bite into something like a steak or hamburger, it could make your body release histamines and cause an allergic reaction.
"My first reaction was that I hope he didn't develop the red meat allergy, because they like hamburgers," said Wall.
Luckily, the father tells us since Kai was bitten he hasn't had any reactions after eating red meat.
"They gave him some antibiotics. Cleared right up," said Wall.
In fact when we bumped into the family at Railroad Park, Kai was showing off his moves on his bike. He's no worse for the wear since his trip to the ER.
"It took a long time but I watched a lot of fun stuff in the hospital," said Kai Wall.
Researchers say the majority of people bitten by lone star ticks don't develop the allergy.
They say the best prevention, is avoid tick bites. It's suggested you wear tall boots and long pants when hiking in wooded areas. Also look for repellants that contain permethrin.

You attach a string and a weight to the ducks to keep them in place. Otherwise, the wind blows them to one side of the pond all the time. They have even fooled other ducks before, being so real.
Pros: Cute birds

At first I didn't know what the community centre was. It's an old building, well preserved though. It looks like would probably be council offices.
The first time I visited was when attending a Slimming world class. The inside is similar to the outside. It isn't modern, flash or sophisticated. It is a practical well cared for building needing a bit of tlc.
The centre is very roomy inside and has a number of different rooms for different functions or activities. There is a wellness centre held upstairs to help the local community keep fit. There are also computer classes.
There are different weight loss classes along with different childrens activities including a toddler group and toy library.

|Gophers eliminated from bowl contention for first time since 2001
|Written by Admin
|Sunday, 21 October 2007 22:21
However, the Gophers haven't hesitated to proudly say that they've qualified for five straight postseason games, even if they are three Music City Bowls, a Sun Bowl and an Insight Bowl.
After an embarrassing loss to North Dakota State on Saturday, the reeling Gopher football program won't even have that to brag about anymore.
The Bison, from the division formerly known as I-AA, made the three-hour drive from sleepy Fargo, N.D., to the Twin Cities and officially eliminated Minnesota from bowl season contention with a 27-21 victory that was nowhere near that close.
The last time the Gophers missed a bowl game was in 2001, when they went 4-7 under former coach Glen Mason.
``That really hurts, seniors especially,'' senior safety Dominique Barber said.
When Tim Brewster was hired in the offseason, he immediately started bombastically spouting about ``taking Gopher Nation to Pasadena.''
It was an eyebrow-raising proclamation for a coach coming to a program that has known only mediocrity - at best - for the better part of 30 years. Now sitting at 1-7 in his first year on the job, all the talk Brewster did in the offseason about turning around the Gophers seems sillier than ever.
To his credit, the coach has been reluctant to use simply making a bowl game as a barometer of success. He knows that any team with a .500 record can get into one of the dizzying number of postseason charades these days.
``It's not about the number of wins we have, it's about winning a championship,'' Brewster said last week. ``So that's where I'm kind of stuck on - winning a championship.
``I'm not trying to win games so we're bowl eligible. I've been to 16 bowl games as a player and as a coach. Going to a bowl game does not excite me. Playing in a championship bowl game excites the heck out of me.''
From the looks of things now, Brewster is a long way from getting excited.
The Bison outgained Minnesota 585-307, including rushing for an astounding 394 yards on the ground.
After watching his players get manhandled and run over for 3 1/2 hours, Brewster acknowledged what has been known all along - that he has some big-time work to do in recruiting.
``We have to get better, without question, and we'll do that,'' Brewster said. ``We're recruiting very hard.''
Brewster has a reputation as a recruiting guru from his days under Mack Brown at Texas, but that isn't helping the seniors on this team.
``The younger guys, you can learn from the season,'' redshirt freshman quarterback Adam Weber said. ``But you feel for the older guys. This is their last season.''
More hard lessons could be right around the corner. The Gophers are at Michigan this week, then host Illinois before finishing with games at Iowa and home against Wisconsin, with a 1-11 season looking very realistic.
``It's frustrating,'' linebacker Steve Davis said Saturday. ``Most of us have never been involved in a losing team. So this year has come as a huge surprise. It's disappointing, but hey, we've got four more games. We have to try to do something with this season and get something positive out of it.''

We're barreling headlong into the start of football season. Teams are already heavy into their summer workouts and, before you know it, players will be reporting for preseason camps.
Time now to introduce a new feature for the AJC Recruiting Blog. Starting this Friday, I give you the "AJC Recruiting Mailbag!"
OK, so there's no cutting-edge new concept here. Numerous sports writers and bloggers I know and follow utilize mailbags. Besides, my good friend, whom I shall refer to only as The Neighbor, absolutely insists I need to "do a mailbag." So I'm going to do one.
But I do feel it can be particularly useful in recruiting, especially as we get further into the fury that is the football season (does it ever really end in the South?).
Regulars here know I post blogs three or more times a day during the season. Thanks to your continued interest, there are often hundreds of comments for each blog. Among those comments are often questions posed directly to me. But as I continually move on to the next thing, I may not always see those queries and some of the questions may go unanswered.
Well, hopefully that won't happen anymore. Or at least it shouldn't. Of course, there will be a reasonableness factor to this equation. Your questions ideally will pertinent and specific and, well, not silly. Once a week — STARTING THIS FRIDAY – I'll pull out the mailbag and answer the best questions to the best of my ability. Some, I'm sure, will become blogs of their own.
So remember this e-mail address or write it down and put it somewhere you can find it for future reference: firstname.lastname@example.com.
By the way, if you're uncomfortable with me using your real name in the blog — I know, admitting you follow recruiting can be shameful — just indicate so and I'll use whatever handle you would like to go by. Again, only reasonable queries will be considered.
Responses to the best questions will be posted here every Friday starting this week. Initially I wasn't sure when it'd start but I've already received enough good questions to realize we can go ahead and get started.
Hope this is something you will like. As always, thanks for hanging out.

Is this really necessary? I mean, the 5 GT fans in the state that always ask… "What about us?" Really don't bog down the comment sections…
JK – Actually I think it will help get those burning questions answered and give you some idea of the pulse of your readers…
One suggestion though Chipper – put the email address at the end of each blog you do post. That way lazy folks like me can find it easier…
Good luck!

I would like to know the inter working of how the coaching staff plans for recruiting . With 7 or 8 coach's, you don't let Searles go out and commit to 15 OL…….. I wonder if Richt tells him you get 4. Latkos, you get 5, Ball, you get 3 WR etc……You have to restock ALL postions…..What if we say 4 OL will get signed, and one to good to be true calls late and say's, I 'll accept…….How does the process start and how does it evolve ?
June 30th, 2010
12:17 pm
Chip, gonna assume that this is not just a mailbag for the UGA fan and ask you what Georgia player(s) Florida is on and has a good chance of landing. Seems like UGA has put alot of renewed emphasis on retaining in state players, which I personally think is a smart strategy. Seems like an awful lot of talent in the Peach State recently. Was disappointed that we missed out on James Vaughters recently but respected the choice he made for himself despite the fact that he really fit the Gator mold and I think he could have realized all of his dreams and goals in Gainesville. Good luck to the young man up at Stanford.

How many scholarships does UGA have to offer for 2011? Who are they most looking for?
June 30th, 2010

JT – I believe kudos is what you are seeking? So kudos!
Oddly enough, there is a weird compulsion to do that FIRST thing when you happen to stumble on to the sites and no one has commented… Even if you've silently proclaimed to oneself that "I'd never do that…" Ahhhh but you do and you just can't seem to help your self.

chip, whats the scoop on xzavier dickson, im hopin we still got a chance with him? also, why hasnt uga extended offers to kelvin benjamin and aj johnson? I think i heard character issues with johnson, but i might be making that up. and last, what are our chances with brandon shell? any realistic chance with him? thanks for all your updates, love reading the ten at ten

Lizard King….what has to be determined is this a UGA site/blog, GT, Florida or is this open to any and all schools. Honestly, I want UGA and what is happening on in-state recruits and out of state recruits we are interested in. I don't mind a little "big news" from other SEC schools. But, I don't want every school under the sun having questions asked about "their" school. So Chip, clarify that or did I just miss it in your article. Keep up the good work. I really am sick and tired of us losing to UF! Hopefully, it will change this year and amp up the competition again. Go Dawgs!!
June 30th, 2010

I think Damian Swann will be a Dawg UGA is only team that recruited him hard. Crowell i think will be Dawg . Hey Towers any news on LeMay i believe the longer it goes it helps LeMay.

I agree Drew and Crowell being one and two but to truly have the dream team we are seeking in addition to those two we MUST HAVE Rome, Shell, Dickerson, Swann, Mitchell and it would be nice to have Mayes as well. Mitchell can play the WR position if need be.

Please let us know what is going on w/James Wilder, Jr.?

Matthews Dawg…That's why I kept my Florida question relevant to Georgia instate H.S. players. Not asking about who UF is recruiting in Fla or Alabama or California. However, you could be right, this might be a forum where Chip is only gonna respond to UGA or GT direct questions. Of course, he will have to clarify that himself.

Tabias Singleton may be the best wr left out there. What are the chances we can get him?
June 30th, 2010
1:19 pm
GT is in serious running on several of the top DEF young men in the country (Curtis Grant, Tony Steward, Stephon Tuitt, etc.) Can you divulge on how UGA's "Dream Team" will stack up with the elite prospects that GT will be bringing in?
June 30th, 2010
1:20 pm
Chip, can you offer and updates on Quan Bray? News has been pretty sparse since you did an article on him in March…how hard is UGA going after him? Is it still a UGA/Alabama battle or does he have some other favorites that have not been mentioned.
June 30th, 2010
1:25 pm
Remarkable…. I'll answer simply because I happened to wonder the same thing yesterday and found this on the UGA Sports website, along with a breakdown by position of our scholarship athletes:
SCHOLARSHIPS: Currently, there are 84 scholarship players on the roster, which is one under the NCAA limit of 85. That one unused scholarships, along with the 15 freed up by departing seniors following the 2010 season, leaves UGA with 16 scholarships for the Class of 2011. However, as is the case every year, there will be more scholarships freed up due to players with remaining eligibility leaving the team for a variety of reasons.

How does Saban get 40 commits every year ? He'll sign 28 or so…..What's going on over there with those crazy numbers……I know just about every stud in the SE has them listed one or two, but they can only sign 25 or so, lot's of looking around by these guys…….UGA has 13, probably get 10 more and call it a day……possibly lose 1 or 2 to some lying…..
June 30th, 2010
1:52 pm
Mathews Dawg, this is not a UGA recruiting blog. This is a recruiting blog. Yes, stories are linked on the UGA page but they are also linked on the sports and GT page. I wouldn't call it a national recruiting blog since we don't discuss how the Oregon Duck recruiting is going every day. I would call it a state of Georgia recruiting blog though as it seems to revolve around what Georgia high school recruits are doing and who Georgia universities are recruiting.
That's my best guess to describing this blog, Chip feel free to correct.

Noone is mentioning MLK high school in anything… They have a WR named Demarco Robinson who has offers from several schools including Louisville and Minnesota.
ATH-Kevin Byard has offers from Clemson, Vanderbilt, and Middle Tennessee State.
LB-Patrick Calloway has been offered by NC State
They have a slew of up and coming juniors who will be all over the place
Don't forget these names…. Blake Tibbs, Jonquel, Dawson, and Joshua Outlaw

Chip, How good do you think Stephenson will be this year and do they still have players with all those seniors graduating last year?
June 30th, 2010
2:14 pm
Are the Dawgs ok with just one qb in this years class? Murray, Hudson and now incoming Lemay the only scholly players at the position if Gray goes to wr right? I know we picked up a couple of walk ons.

June 30th, 2010
2:37 pm
Chip, Lizard King and RxDawg…. I know this will include more than just UGA, but I agree with what Chip said that there are more than 1 school in the state and many of the state of Georgia's recruits are being recruited out of state. So, I fully expect out of state Univ's to be involved. I would hope that it would not be run over by out of state schools. In Atlanta alone, there are many schools alums working and living. They want to know about there schools too. I even want to know what GT is doing in and out of state. It is important to know all you can about your rivals too. Just asking the question and getting clarification. Thanks to all who responded. I think this will be a great blog!!

One more question Towers does UGA have a shot at Malcom Brown out of Texas I saw on Scout that UGA is in his top 5.
June 30th, 2010
2:51 pm
Malcolm Brown is going to UT – UGA has all their eggs in the Crowell basket
June 30th, 2010
3:12 pm
In your opinion how many of the following players do you think will land at UGA? Who are more likely than others? Also, if not UGA where do you think they will end up? Crowell, Wright, Rome, Swann, Mitchell, Dickson, Wilder, Ray Drew, Shell, and Bray?

Tennessee just signed the top punter in the county for 2010 (one time USC commit) and the top placekicker in the country from Fort Lauderdale.
Well at least our special teams will be good…unfortunately not much else in 2010 I'm afraid

Chip…..Wilder will be a Gator. It is Meyer's #1 recruiting goal for this year…and he hasn't failed yet in getting that goal in previous years…Tim Tebow (away from Bama), John Brantley (away from Texas), Carlos Dunlap (away from South Carolina), Andre Dubose (away from LSU), Matt Elam (away from both Georgia and FSU), and Ronald Powell (away from USC). Meyer gets the recruit he really wants, and Meyer REALLY wants James Wilder…..and is the power back Meyer has always wanted.

This was so great, and easy to make! I served with Sunset's Lacinato Kale and some rice pilaf. Delish!
Sole Meunière
James Carrier
"Meunière" refers to both a method of fish preparation - dredging in flour and pan-frying - and the accompanying brown butter sauce featuring parsley, lemon, and capers. Pair this sole meunière with rice pilaf and a mixed green salad for a satisfying meal.
Yield: Makes 4 servings

- Salt
- About 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 to 5 tablespoons butter or margarine
- 2 tablespoons drained capers
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 cup minced parsley
- Fresh-ground white pepper
- 1. Rinse lemon, and with a small, sharp knife, cut off and discard peel and white membrane. Thinly slice lemon crosswise, discarding seeds and ends.
- 2. Rinse sole and pat dry. If fillets are longer than 6 or 7 inches, cut in half crosswise so they'll be less likely to break when you turn them. Sprinkle each fillet lightly with salt. Coat on all sides with flour, shake off excess, and lay pieces side by side on a sheet of plastic wrap.
- 3. In a 12- to 14-inch frying pan over high heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter; when hot, lay as many pieces as will fit side by side in pan without crowding and cook until browned on the bottom, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Turn with a wide, flexible metal spatula and brown remaining side, 1 to 2 minutes longer (if butter begins to scorch, reduce heat to medium-high). With spatula, transfer fillets to an ovenproof platter, laying pieces side by side, and keep warm in a 200º oven. Melt 1 more tablespoon butter in frying pan; repeat step to cook remaining sole fillets, transfer to platter, and keep warm in the oven.
- 4. With a paper towel, wipe frying pan clean and return to high heat. Add 1 to 2 more tablespoons butter and the capers; stir until butter is melted. Add lemon juice, remove from heat, and stir in about 3 tablespoons of the parsley. At once, scrape butter mixture over hot fish fillets. Garnish with lemon slices and remaining parsley and sprinkle generously with pepper. With spatula, transfer fillets to plates. Season to taste with more salt.

5 Tips For Buying a Backpacking Tent
There are a lot of tents out there. How do you choose between them? Backpackers come in different sizes and have different needs and preferences in a tent. In testing scores of backcountry tents over the past two decades, for reviews in Backpacker Magazine and this blog, I've seen the best and the worst—and gotten a sense of what to look for in a tent and how to help people pick out one they like. Here are my five simple tips for finding the tent that you'll love. Continue reading →
Gear Review: Sierra Designs Flash 3 Tent
Three-Season Tent
Sierra Designs Flash 3
$400, 4 lbs. 15 oz. (tent and poles only)
Backpacking with my kids amplifies a challenge any backpacker faces: finding a tent that provides good living space and stability without being a burdensome weight or filling your backpack. My kids are young enough that they carry just personal gear (bag, pad, clothes, snacks, water). So on a recent overnight trip with my kids in the Needles District of Utah's Canyonlands National Park, without my wife or another adult to share the family food and gear load, I took the Flash 3 for a test drive and was blown away by the amount of space it has for a sub-five-pound, freestanding shelter.

Gear Review: Big Agnes Slater UL 2+ Tent
Big Agnes Slater UL 2+
$390, 2 lbs. 11 oz. (tent, rainfly, poles)
My first impression of the Slater UL2+ was formed before I even pulled it out of the stuff sack: I couldn't believe a two-person tent could possibly fit in such a small package. Given that I often backpack with my family—with my wife and I shouldering most of the gear because our kids are young—low weight and bulk take top priority with us. But any concerns about that low weight affecting the Slater's sturdiness in weather were erased after backpacking and camping trips in Utah's Coyote Gulch (two nights) and Capitol Reef National Park (two nights), Washington's Glacier Peak Wilderness (four nights), and Idaho's White Clouds Mountains (two nights) and City of Rocks National Reserve (two nights). This tent stood up to strong gusts repeatedly, including sustained, steady winds over 40 mph in the White Clouds and Capitol Reef, without even bending slightly. Continue reading →
Ask Me: Which Tent is Better, Sierra Designs Flash 2 or Exped Mira II?
Hey Michael,
I saw that you subsequently reviewed the Sierra Designs Flash 2. Which of these tents are you packing now? For the Flash 2, with the side vestibules not touching the ground in areas, don't you have trouble with sand and/or rain blowing in?
I have both tents sitting in my living room while I try to decide which to take on the Wonderland trail in a month.

Meditation burns blockages
Spirals turning all clockwise ,
Chakras sucking in so nice,
Red base turning growing twice,
Serpent rising blazing thrice,
See the coils a lifting free,
See the serpent stretching be,
Blue flames coil so frequently,
Through navel chakra, vice?
Orange growing so severe ,
Yellow knowing it is near,
Burning, the sick/blockage device,
Dis-ease a fading in the size,
Up through yellow, coils the snake,
Fiery path is burnt awake,
Rising, rising, rising till,
Heart a flutter green of will,
Green is a growing very bright,
Green of grass fills with delight,
Onward up the spine it goes,
Fiery path the serpent knows,
Blue of throat fire coils do see,
Blue of growing destiny,
till Purple see, a burning free,
penetrates, the awesome sight
explodes through, the ice of White,
a shuddering delight,

Lawrence Peter "Yogi" Berra (born May 12, 1925) is an American former Major League Baseball catcher, outfielder, and manager. He played almost his entire 19-year baseball career (1946–1965) for the New York Yankees. Berra is one of only four players to be named the Most Valuable Player of the American League three times and is one of seven managers to lead both American and National League teams to the World Series. As a player, coach, or manager, Berra appeared in 21 World Series. He was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1972.
Berra is widely regarded as one of the greatest catchers in baseball history. He was named to the Major League Baseball All-Century Team in a voting of fans in 1999. According to the win shares formula developed by sabermetrician Bill James, Berra is the greatest catcher of all time and the 52nd greatest non-pitching player in major-league history.
Berra, who quit school after the eighth grade,[1] was also known for his mangled quotes, such as "It ain't over 'til it's over", while speaking to reporters. Simultaneously denying and confirming his reputation, Berra once stated, "I really didn't say everything I said."[2]
Lawrence Peter Berra was born in a primarily Italian neighborhood of St. Louis called "The Hill", to Italian immigrants Pietro and Paolina (née Longoni) Berra.[3][4] Pietro, originally from Milan in northern Italy, arrived at Ellis Island on October 18, 1909, at the age of 23.[5] In a 2005 interview for the Baseball Hall of Fame, Yogi said, "My father came over first. He came from the old country. And he didn't know what baseball was. He was ready to go to work. And then I had three other brothers and a sister. My brother and my mother came over later on. My two oldest brothers, they were born there— Mike and Tony. John and I and my sister Josie were born in St. Louis."[6] Yogi's parents originally nicknamed him "Lawdie", derived from his mother's difficulty pronouncing "Lawrence" or "Larry" correctly. He grew up on Elizabeth Avenue, across the street from boyhood friend and later competitor Joe Garagiola; that block, also home to Jack Buck early in his Cardinals broadcasting career, was later renamed "Hall of Fame Place".[7] Berra is a Roman Catholic,[8] and he attended South Side Catholic, now called St. Mary's High School, in south St. Louis with Garagiola. Berra has been inducted into the St. Louis Walk of Fame.[9]
He began playing baseball in local American Legion leagues, where he learned the basics of catching while playing outfield and infield positions as well. Berra also played for a Cranston, Rhode Island team under an assumed name.[10] While playing in American Legion baseball, he received his famous nickname from his friend Bobby Hofman who said he resembled a Hindu yogi whenever he sat around with arms and legs crossed waiting to bat or while looking sad after a losing game.[11]
In 1942, the St. Louis Cardinals spurned Berra in favor of his boyhood best friend, Joe Garagiola. On the surface, the Cardinals seemed to think Garagiola the superior prospect—but team president Branch Rickey actually had an ulterior motive: knowing he was soon to leave St. Louis to take over the operation of the Brooklyn Dodgers and more impressed with Berra than he let on, Rickey apparently planned to hold Berra off until he could sign him for the Dodgers.[citation needed] However, the Yankees signed Berra for the same $500 bonus the Cardinals offered Garagiola before Rickey could sign Berra to the Dodgers. The Yankees assigned Berra to the Norfolk Tars of the Class B Piedmont League, where his most memorable feat was driving in 23 runs in a doubleheader.[12]
Following his service in the U.S. Navy during World War II where he served as a gunner's mate on the USS Bayfield during the D-Day invasion,[13] Berra played minor league baseball with the Newark Bears before being called up for seven games in the major leagues in 1946 and was taught under the mentorship of Hall of Famer Bill Dickey, whose number Berra took. The following season he played 83 games for the Yankees, and he would play more than a hundred in each of the following fourteen years.
Berra appeared in fourteen World Series, winning ten championships, both of which are records. Partly because Berra's playing career coincided with the Yankees' most consistent period of World Series participation, he established World Series records for the most games (75), at-bats (259), hits (71), doubles (10), singles (49), games caught (63), and catcher putouts (457). In Game 3 of the 1947 World Series, Berra hit the first pinch-hit home run in World Series history, off Brooklyn Dodgers pitcher Ralph Branca (who later served up Bobby Thomson's famous home run in 1951).
Berra was a fifteen-time All-Star, and won the league's MVP award three times, in 1951, 1954 and 1955. From 1950 to 1957, Berra never finished lower than 4th in the voting. He received MVP votes in fifteen consecutive seasons, tied with Barry Bonds and second only to Hank Aaron's nineteen straight seasons with MVP support. (Ted Williams also received MVP votes in every year of his career, but it was twice interrupted by military service.) Between 1949 and 1955, on a team filled with stars such as Mickey Mantle and Joe DiMaggio, it was Berra who led the Yankees in RBI for seven consecutive seasons.
One of the most notable days of Berra's playing career came when he caught Don Larsen's perfect game in the 1956 World Series, the first of only two no-hitters ever thrown in postseason play.[citation needed] The pictures of Berra leaping into Larsen's arms following the 27th out are among the sport's most memorable images.
Berra was excellent at hitting poor pitches, covering all areas of the strike zone (as well as beyond) with great extension. In addition to this wide plate coverage, he also had great bat control. He was able to both swing the bat like a golf club to hit low pitches for deep home runs, and chop at high pitches for line drives. Five times, Berra had more home runs in a season than strikeouts. In 1950, Berra struck out twelve times in 597 at-bats. This combination made him a feared "clutch hitter"; rival manager Paul Richards once called Berra "the toughest man in the league in the last three innings." When asked about swinging at "bad pitches", Berra reportedly said, "If I can hit it, it's a good pitch."[12]
As a catcher, Berra was truly outstanding. Quick, mobile, and a great handler of pitchers, Berra led all American League catchers eight times in games caught and in chances accepted, six times in double plays (a major league record), eight times in putouts, three times in assists, and once in fielding percentage. Berra left the game with the AL records for catcher putouts (8,723) and chances accepted (9,520). He was also one of only four catchers to ever field 1.000 for a season, playing 88 errorless games in 1958. He was the first catcher to leave a finger outside his glove, a style most other catchers eventually emulated.[14] Later in his career, he became a good defensive outfielder in Yankee Stadium's notoriously difficult left field. In June 1962, at the age of 37, Berra showed his superb physical endurance by catching an entire 22-inning, seven-hour game against the Tigers.[15] Casey Stengel, Berra's manager during most of his playing career with the Yankees and with the Mets in 1965, once said, "I never play a game without my man."[16]
After Berra's Yankee playing career ended with the 1963 World Series, he was hired as the manager of the New York Yankees. Much was made of an incident on board the team bus in August 1964. Following a loss, infielder Phil Linz was playing his harmonica, and Berra ordered him to stop. Seated on the other end of the bus, Linz couldn't hear what Berra had said, and Mickey Mantle impishly informed Linz, "He said to play it louder." When Linz did so, an angry Berra slapped the harmonica out of his hands.[17] All was apparently forgotten when Berra's Yankees rode a September surge to return to the World Series. But the team lost to the St. Louis Cardinals in seven games, after which Berra was fired. It was later learned that general manager Ralph Houk had been ready to discharge Berra since mid-season, apparently for a perceived loss of control over the team.
Berra made a very brief return to the field as a player-coach for the crosstown Mets, playing in just four games. His last at-bat came on May 9, 1965, just three days shy of his 40th birthday. Berra stayed with the Mets as a coach for the next eight seasons, including their 1969 World Championship season. He then became the team's manager in 1972, following the sudden death of manager Gil Hodges.
The following season looked like a disappointment at first. Midway through the 1973 season, the Mets were stuck in last place but in a very tight divisional race. In July, when a reporter asked Yogi if the season was over, he replied, "It ain't over till it's over."
A late surge allowed the Mets to win the NL Eastern division despite an 82–79 record, making it the only time between 1970 and 1980 that the NL East was not won by either their rival Philadelphia Phillies or the Pittsburgh Pirates.[18][19] When the Mets faced the 99-win Cincinnati Reds in the 1973 National League Championship Series, a memorable brawl erupted between Bud Harrelson and Pete Rose in the top of the 5th inning of Game Three. After the incident and the ensuing bench clearing brawl that followed had subsided, fans began throwing objects at Rose when he returned to his position in left field in the bottom half of the inning. Sparky Anderson pulled Rose and his Reds off the field until order was restored. When National League president Chub Feeney threatened the Mets with a forfeit, Berra walked out to left field with Willie Mays, Tom Seaver, Rusty Staub and Cleon Jones in order to plead with the fans to desist.[20] Yogi's Mets went on to defeat the highly favored Big Red Machine in 5 games to capture the NL pennant. It was Berra's second as a manager, one in each league.
In the 1973 World Series, Yogi's Mets had a 3-games-to-2 lead on the Oakland Athletics. Berra chose Tom Seaver and Jon Matlack, each pitching on 3 days rest, to start for games 6 and 7. When the Mets lost both games, Berra was criticized for not using George Stone in Game Six as a starter, thus giving him a fully rested Game Seven pitcher. Berra expressed no regrets: "What better situation would you want to have? Seaver and Matlack having to win one game! I have no regrets or second thoughts. I went for the kill. It just wasn't in the cards."
Berra's tenure as Mets manager ended with his firing on August 5, 1975. He had a record of 298 wins and 302 losses, which includes the post season and a National League pennant. In 1976, he rejoined the Yankees as a coach. The team won its first of three consecutive AL titles, as well as the 1977 World Series and 1978 World Series, and (as had been the case throughout his playing days) Berra's reputation as a lucky charm was reinforced. Casey Stengel once said of his catcher, "He'd fall in a sewer and come up with a gold watch."[21] Berra was named Yankee manager before the 1984 season. Berra agreed to stay in the job for 1985 after receiving assurances that he would not be fired, but the impatient Steinbrenner did fire Berra after the 16th game of the season. Instead of firing him personally, Steinbrenner dispatched Clyde King to deliver the news for him.[22] This caused a rift between the two men that was not mended for almost 15 years.[23]
Berra later joined the Houston Astros as bench coach, where he again made it to the NLCS in 1986. The Astros lost the series in six games to the Mets. Berra remained a coach in Houston until 1989.
In 1999, after George Steinbrenner ventured to his home in New Jersey to apologize in person for the way his firing as Yankee manager was handled, Berra ended his 14-year estrangement with the Yankee organization and worked in spring training camp with catcher Jorge Posada.[24]
|Yogi Berra's number 8 was retired by the New York Yankees in 1972.
In 1972, Berra was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame.
The No. 8 was retired in 1972 by the Yankees, jointly honoring Berra and Bill Dickey, his predecessor as the Yankees' star catcher.
On August 22, 1988, Berra and Dickey were honored with plaques to be hung in Monument Park at Yankee Stadium. Berra's plaque calls him "A legendary Yankee" and cites his most frequent quote, "It ain't over till it's over." However, the honor was not enough to shake Berra's conviction that Steinbrenner had broken their personal agreement; Berra did not set foot in the Stadium for another decade, until Steinbrenner publicly apologized to Berra.
In 1996, Berra received an honorary doctorate from Montclair State University, which also named its own campus stadium Yogi Berra Stadium, opened in 1998, in his honor.
In 1999, Berra appeared at No. 40 on The Sporting News' list of the 100 Greatest Baseball Players, and fan balloting elected him to the Major League Baseball All-Century Team. At the 2008 All-Star Game at Yankee Stadium, Berra had the honor of being the last of the 49 Hall of Famers in attendance to be announced. The hometown favorite received the loudest standing ovation of the group.
On July 18, 1999, Berra was honored with "Yogi Berra Day" at Yankee Stadium. Don Larsen threw the first pitch to Berra, to honor the perfect game from the 1956 World Series. This was a part of the celebration to mark the return of Berra to the Stadium, which ended his 14-year feud with Yankees' owner George Steinbrenner. The feud started in 1985 when Steinbrenner promised Berra an honest chance as manager, then fired him in the third week of the season. Berra vowed to never return to Yankee Stadium so long as Steinbrenner owned the team. On that day, Yankees pitcher David Cone threw a perfect game against the Montreal Expos,[25] only the 16th time it had ever been done in Major League history.[26]
In 2008, Berra was inducted into the New Jersey Hall of Fame.[27]
In 1998, the Yogi Berra Museum and Learning Center[28] and Yogi Berra Stadium (home of the New Jersey Jackals and Montclair State University baseball teams) opened on the campus of Montclair State University in Upper Montclair, New Jersey. The museum is the home of various artifacts, including the mitt with which Yogi caught the only perfect game in World Series history, several autographed and "game-used" items, and nine of Yogi's championship rings. (Berra only wears the 1953 ring, in commemoration of the Yankees' record 5th consecutive World Championship.) It was an appearance on behalf of the museum by George Steinbrenner that led to their ultimate reconciliation. Yogi Berra was given the 1951 Yankee World Series banner.
Berra is very involved with the project, and he frequently visits the museum for signings, discussions, and other events. It is his intention to teach children important values such as sportsmanship and dedication, both on and off the baseball diamond.[29]
Berra and former teammate Phil Rizzuto were partners in a bowling alley venture in Clifton, New Jersey, originally called Rizzuto-Berra Lanes. The two eventually sold their stakes in the alley to new owners who changed its name to Astro Bowl before those owners sold the property to a developer, who closed the bowling alley in 1999 and converted it into retail space.
Berra remains involved in causes related to his Italian American heritage. A longtime supporter of the National Italian American Foundation (NIAF), Berra has helped fundraise for the Foundation, even signing baseballs at NIAF events for auction. In 1996, he received the NIAF Special Achievement Award for Sports at NIAF's 21st Anniversary Gala.
Berra is a recipient of the Boy Scouts of America's highest adult award, the Silver Buffalo Award.
Berra has frequently appeared in advertisements for Yoo-hoo, AFLAC, Entenmann's, and Stove Top stuffing, among others, frequently demonstrating his famous "yogiisms." He is among the longest running commercial pitchmen in the U.S.; his television commercials span the early 1950s to the present day. Based on his style of speaking, Yogi was named "Wisest Fool of the Past 50 Years" by The Economist magazine in January 2005.[30] He appeared on the YES Network in Yogi and a Movie where he and Bob Lorenz comment on different movies intermittently as they play.
In the 2007 television miniseries The Bronx is Burning, Berra was portrayed by the actor Joe Grifasi. In the HBO sports docudrama 61*, Berra was portrayed by actor Paul Borghese, and Hank Steinberg's script included more than one of Berra's famous "Yogiisms". In 2009, Berra appeared in the documentary film A Time for Champions recounting his childhood memories of soccer in his native St. Louis.[citation needed]
Yogi and his wife Carmen were played by real life newly married actors Peter Scolari and Tracey Shayne in the 2013 Broadway play, Bronx Bombers.[31]
Berra married his wife Carmen on January 26, 1949. They have three sons and he currently lives in Montclair, New Jersey. Two of Berra's sons also played professional sports. His son Dale Berra played shortstop for the Pittsburgh Pirates, New York Yankees, and Houston Astros, and his son Tim Berra played pro football for the Baltimore Colts in 1974. Carmen Berra died on March 7, 2014 due to complications from a recent stroke. They had been married for over 65 years.[32]
|Wikiquote has a collection of quotations related to: Yogi Berra
Berra is also well known for his pithy comments and witticisms, known as Yogiisms. Yogiisms very often take the form of either an apparently obvious tautology, or a paradoxical contradiction.

Breakfast Recipes: ABC Pancakes
Do you ever make "ABC Pancakes" for your kids?
It's not only a fun breakfast treat; it's a great way to help the kiddos learn their letters. My mom used to spell out my sister and I's names in pancake batter—which was easy with my name (Kim), but a little trickier with my sister's (Kristin).
Here's how to do it:
- Make pancake batter as you ordinarily would: either with a mix or from scratch.
- Pour the batter into a Ziploc plastic bag.
- Clip off one of the corners of the bag (about 1/2-inch to 1-inch wide).
- Squeeze the batter onto skillet in whatever letter (or other shape) you desire.
- Cook pancakes as directed.

A Fully Portable Setup for the Visual RecitalThe Visual Recital is now fully portable, musically and visually speaking!
I've invested in some cutting edge digital piano technology which includes the following:
A Roland RD-700SX Digital Piano
A Muse Research Receptor, which houses high resolution sound sample libraries like the Ivory pianos from Synthogy
Pianoteq, a sophisticated piano simulator, which runs off of a third Tablet PC (one being for reading music, the other for triggering the visuals)
A pair of JBL Eon 15 G2 self-powered speakers
Here are some pictures from a recent show at an elementary school outreach event:
Video from the school outreach event to be posted soon!
