Seems like Prince Harry's fiancée Meghan Markle is just like the rest of us when it comes to her New Year's resolutions. Writing on her now closed blog The Tig, the former actress revealed that she makes the same resolutions every year: to stop biting her nails, stop swearing and re-learn French. The royal-to-be wrote the blog post on 1 January 2016 before she began dating Harry. It was first reported that the couple were in a relationship in October 2016.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle
The Telegraph reports that Meghan wrote: "Stop biting my nails. Stop swearing. Re-learn French. These make my New Year's resolution list nearly (AKA actually every) single year. The swearing comes in lulls triggered by being overworked or feeling mighty cheeky after a couple drinks. And when it comes to the biting of the nails - well, it still happens with a turbulent flight or a stressful day. It's unladylike. But then again, so is the swearing." The Suits star also wrote of her desire to run a marathon. She added that she wished to "approach life playfully" and "leave room for magic".

Meghan's farewell message on her now closed blog The Tig
Magic certainly appears to have found Meghan with her engagement to Prince Harry. The couple are due to tie the knot at Windsor Castle in May, with Meghan already accompanying Harry on official royal engagements. The pair spent their first Christmas together with the Queen at Sandringham. Speaking on BBC Radio 4's Today programme, where he was guest editor for a day over Christmas, Harry revealed: "the family loved having her there. We had an amazing time staying with my brother and sister-in-law and running around with the kids, it's the family she's never had".

Gautam Adani debunks GDP rhetoric, urges global investors to bet on long-term 'India Opportunity'
Amid global concerns on the pandemic-induced economic slowdown and its impact on the world's future, Gautam Adani, Chairman of the Adani Group, infused hope in the international investors' community while speaking at the JP Morgan India Summit – Future in Focus on September 24, 2020.
The first generation entrepreneur coaxed the audience to look at opportunities through his 'optimist' lenses. "As an entrepreneur, I am an optimist, and therefore the lenses through which I see opportunities may be different than some of yours. I recognize that the view - you cannot build a long-term future on short term thinking - may not be in alignment with the objectives of certain priorities of the investment community," he said.
Emphasizing on his robust belief in India's future he added that short-term outlook may not be the ideal approach for a nation that houses 1.3 Bn people. "I will state without any hesitation – that – in my view - over the next three decades, India is the world's greatest business opportunity."
Gautam Adani debunks GDP rhetoric, urges global investors to bet on long-term 'India Opportunity'
Split into four broad dimensions, the thought-provoking discourse started with the far-reaching consequences of COVID19 and how opportunities for India are likely to accelerate on the other side of the crisis. The argument was backed with strong perspective such as India's geostrategic position and massive market size giving it an edge over its global peers amid the fundamental political realignment of nations taking shape with the QUAD discussion being a precursor.
He further reiterated the potential of the Atma Nirbhar program to be a game-changer, India's advantage from the crumbling supply chain infrastructure that stands exposed by COVID19 and our nation's strong head start in digital transformation.
Another clutter-breaking view that Mr. Adani presented to the forum was to stop viewing all nations through old western growth metrics. The curator of India's largest and most diversified infrastructure platform, said, "Democracy cannot take a cookie-cutter approach and we should accept that different nations will have their own flavor of democracy and capitalism."
He added, "The current focus on standardized GDP predictions - as against truly understanding what a nation could look like over a decade - has unfortunately become one of the primary elements for measuring the health of an economy. In my view, patience and long-term planning and most importantly, an alignment with the Government's business agenda is what creates the greatest value"
Speaking of challenges holding back India, Mr. Adani said that India needs USD1.5 to 2 Trillion of capital over the next decade but despite key structural reforms such as the National Investment and Infrastructure Fund and Credit Enhancement Fund, capital structure challenge, and lack of empowered and independent regulators remain bottlenecks to nation-building and investment opportunities in India.
Mr. Gautam Adani then took the audience on a virtual tour of the Adani Group's journey, its contribution to nation-building, Indian economy and its overarching philosophy of Growth with Goodness.
"We basically build infrastructure that enables "flow". The the flow of goods and materials, the flow of electrons, the flow of people, and the flow of data. This focus on helping build India's infrastructure forms the core of our "Nation Building" philosophy," said the man reminiscing a 30 year+ legacy.
This vision to build India, enabled the Adani Group, to enter sectors facing critical demand gaps and growth through expansion into adjacent sectors. Its incubation model of nurturing new businesses within the flagship company, Adani Enterprises Limited (AEL) led to the creation of 6 publicly-traded companies which created thousands of jobs and delivered unprecedented value to its shareholders.
"A one-rupee investment in Adani Enterprises, that was our the first IPO in 1994, has returned over 800X," he said.
From emerging as a market leader across its various businesses of thermal power, renewables. Ports & logistics, gas distribution to foraying into new sectors aligned to new India's needs such as Airports, Aerospace & Defence and Data Centres, Mr. Adani said that his group has built India's largest infrastructure business that is now manifesting itself as an integrated "platform of platforms". "This platform helps us bridge the B2B to B2C gap in unique ways and provide to India its largest physical "Infrastructure as a Service" platform."
The talk concluded on the most optimistic note. He said, that every crisis helps the world build its own level of immunity and it emerges stronger on the other side.
"For the sake of the fans of the GDP metric – let's look at some statistics. The global GDP in 1990 was $38 trillion. Today, 30 years later, this number is $90 trillion. Projecting out another 30 years in 2050 the global GDP is expected to be about $170 trillion with India has become the second-largest economy in the world."

Rosenbach Museum and Library honors benefactor Maurice Sendak
CHILDREN'S AUTHOR Maurice Sendak began his life in Brooklyn and lived in Connecticut until his death Tuesday, but his heart — his work — lives on in Philadelphia at the Rosenbach Museum and Library. The museum has more than 10,000 pieces of Sendak's work, spanning his career from the '40s to the early 21st century, and will mount a memorial exhibition in June. Reacting to the beloved author's death, the museum opened its doors for free to the public yesterday and will again Wednesday from noon to 8 p.m.
CHILDREN'S AUTHOR Maurice Sendak began his life in Brooklyn and lived in Connecticut until his death Tuesday, but his heart — his work — lives on in Philadelphia at the Rosenbach Museum and Library. The museum has more than 10,000 pieces of Sendak's work, spanning his career from the '40s to the early 21st century, and will mount a memorial exhibition in June.
Reacting to the beloved author's death, the museum opened its doors for free to the public yesterday and will again Wednesday from noon to 8 p.m.
The gallery is exhibiting "From Pen to Publisher: The Life of Three Sendak Picture Books." It traces Sendak's process doing The Sign on Rosie's Door (1960), Outside Over There (1981) and Brundibar (2003) from conception to completion.
"We're getting a lot visitors today," Judy Guston, curator and director of collections at the Rosenbach, told the Daily News Tuesday. "Maurice meant a lot to a lot of people."
The memorial exhibit will contain one work to represent each of the 65 years of Sendak's career. Work will be cycled in and out to accommodate the 90 Sendak books the Rosenbach has in the collection. It will open on June 10, Sendak's birthday. The Rosenbach was founded to house the collections of Phillip and Dr. Abraham Simon Wolf Rosenbach, collectors and dealers in rare books and decorative arts. Sendak joined the board of trustees in 1973 and was named honorary president in 2003.
"This is the place where Maurice chose to bring his work," Guston said. "We will continue to have his legacy live on."
Sendak first visited the Rosenbach in 1966 and began placing his work there in 1968. In a 2007 interview, Sendak said he did so because the museum collected the works of artists and writers that he loved, including Herman Melville and illustrations from Alice in Wonderland. In 1995, Sendak illustrated Melville's Pierre: or, The Ambiguities.
"I remember I would lay in Dr. Rosenbach's room and they would bring me in some drawings for a French novel by Fragonard … And there was a big fur, animal fur blanket, and I used to lay under it with my Fragonards all around," Sendak said in the interview quoted on the Rosenbach's website. "Hey — that was living! Of course, they took it all back in the morning … that's the way of life …"
Sendak's last visit to the Rosenbach was in April, when he came to see what's informally known as the "Chertoff mural." Sendak's only surviving large-scale work was painted for a New York City family, the Chertoffs, in 1961. The museum acquired and began restoring it in 2008.
"Maurice Sendak was a national treasure and a 'mensch' all rolled into one," Derick Dreher, John C. Haas director of the museum, said in a statement on the website.
Sendak was born in Brooklyn in 1928 to Polish immigrants. During his lifetime, he worked on nearly 100 books. His first, Kenny's Window, was published in 1956. Sendak won the Caldecott Medal, one of the highest honors for a children's author, in 1964 for Where the Wild Things Are. He received the Hans Christian Andersen Award in 1970 and a Laura Ingalls Wilder Award in 1983. In 2007, Sendak's partner of 50 years, Eugene Glynn, passed away, leaving Sendak unable to write. Many thought he had retired, but in September he released Bumble-Ardy, the first book he'd both written and illustrated in 30 years. My Brother's Book, an ode to his late brother, Jack, will be released in February. Sendak has no immediate survivors.
"What we're hearing from people today is their stories and how [Sendak] affected their lives, whether they read his books as a child or they're reading them to their children," Guston said. "No matter where we've brought this collection, we always hear those stories."
Guston had a story of her own: Where the Wild Things Are was the first book she read. "It was the first book that really stirred my imagination and set an impossibly high standard for aesthetics," she said. "I felt so privileged to work with him for these many years." n

Long Awaited, and Finally Here: Kodak Gold in Medium Format – First Impressions and Press Release.
Kodak Alaris has finally released Kodak Gold 200 in a 120 size medium format version. The release has been long awaited since an initial hint had been placed in SilvergrainClassics Fireside Chat Episode One by Kodak Alaris´s Andy Church almost a year and two months ago. The film will be immediately available for purchase by retailers as of today, meaning consumers will be able to buy it from their favourite film supplier during the course of next week.
Expected to be priced about 25% lower than other Kodak branded 120 films, Gold 200 will make medium format photography more accessible, and in light of recent price increases, more affordable, too. Besides that, the distinct color rendition of Kodak Gold, especially emphasising earthy tones, will expand the creative choice of medium format photographers, and thus will be a most welcome addition of the existing medium format film portfolio currently available.
Kodak Gold 200 Medium Format Field Test

After living in the city for a while, you start to appreciate the wide open fields with nothing but a few trees for miles and miles.
In the distance sits a volcano, the "rough Kulm" that has not erupted since the early days of the European continent, speaking in geological, and not political timeframes.
In summary, having Kodak Gold available in medium format is a fantastic addition to a portfolio of already great films. Being aimed at both professionals and enthusiasts the film is well suited for all kinds of scenes and contexts, and in the next print issue of SilvergrainClassics we will test it more thoroughly and compare different medium formats, from 6×4,5 to 6×6 and 6×7. Additionally we will deeply test the Gold 200 emulsion itself, and compare it to other available 200-speed emulsions, like Fuji C200 and Adox Color Mission 200. In the meantime, my early verdict of the film is, that it might actually replace Portra 160 as my favourite go-to medium format film for general photography.
The Press Release
ROCHESTER, N.Y. March 21, 2022 – Kodak Moments, a division of Kodak Alaris, continues the expansion of its color film portfolio with the launch of Kodak Gold 200 film in a new 120 format 5-roll pro-pack for medium format cameras, satisfying consumer demand.
"The 120 film format was introduced back in 1901 for the Brownie No. 2 camera," said Thomas Mooney, Manager Film Capture Products, Kodak Moments Division. "Although it's been around for 120 years, it's still one of the most popular film formats in use today. One main reason for its popularity is that the larger film negative can be enlarged significantly without losing image quality. This is a great opportunity for aspiring photographers looking to make the jump from 35mm to medium format photography."
The new 120 format KODAK PROFESSIONAL GOLD 200 is an affordable, entry-level color film featuring an ideal combination of warm saturated color, fine grain, and high sharpness. It is designed for any level photographer for daylight and flash capture.
Starting today, the 120 format GOLD 200 Film is available for dealers, retailers, and distributors around the world and is intended to be priced 25 percent lower than the comparable PORTRA and EKTAR offerings.

The Best RV Park Internet Solutions To Improve Your Connectivity
RV camping is seen as a way to get away from it all. However, RVers still want to stay connected to the internet for a variety of reasons. RVers might need reliable Wi-Fi for remote work or school, for leisure activities (such as gaming and watching movies), or just to stay in touch with loved ones.
A recent survey of 49 diverse campers by Outdoor Miles found that 80% of campers consider reliable internet to be very important, even when they are camping. Many RV parks have taken note of the desire for reliable Wi-Fi and have responded by providing internet for guests.
Why Is RV park internet so bad?
Although RV parks are trying to meet the needs of campers by providing internet solutions, it is often a spotty connection. The problem is this: Campsite Wi-Fi is usually supplied via a router located at (or near) the campground office. The quality of the Wi-Fi at a campground can be affected by any of the following conditions:
- The distance of your campsite to the RV park router: The further away your campsite is to the router, the weaker the signal gets. If you are more than 300 feet from the router, you probably won't get a signal at all.
- The number of campers using the Wi-Fi and what they are using it for: Chances are you won't get very good download or upload speeds if there are many campers at the RV park using the internet. If they are all downloading videos or using their computers to stream online gaming, the RV park Wi-Fi will become overloaded.
- Trees in the campground: If your campsite is surrounded by beautiful trees, your signal will be obstructed and can become spotty or even non-existent.
- RVs block Wi-Fi signals: RVs are made from metal and fiberglass components. Either of these materials can effectively block Wi-Fi signals and cause reception problems. Luckily, there are workarounds for this, including using a Wi-Fi booster.
How to improve your RV park Wi-Fi signal
Camp close to the router
If staying connected to the internet is important to you, call the RV park office and find out which sites have the best Wi-Fi reception. Then you can book one of those campsites instead of a spot where getting good reception is a struggle.
Use cellular data
Using cell phone or mobile hotspot data instead of RV park Wi-Fi can be a lifesaver for digital nomads and others who depend on Wi-Fi for work or school. If you camp in different areas, it may be worth your while to invest in data plans from several providers. Different providers will have towers in different areas. Having a few data plans will increase your ability to stay connected.
Get out of the forest
We love camping in the beauty (and privacy) of a natural forest. However, if you want a reliable Wi-Fi signal, you may have to select a campsite with fewer trees. Check RV LIFE Campground Reviews to see what other RVers have said about the signal strength during their stay.
Use a Wi-Fi booster
Having a Wi-Fi booster can be very helpful for getting better signal strength and data speeds. We've heard great things about the Winegard Connect 2.0 Wi-Fi & 4G signal booster. This small booster mounts on the roof of the RV.
Use a cell signal booster
A cell signal booster can improve the quality of a cellular signal anywhere there is a cell tower within range. These signal boosters work well if you can get a weak data signal and want to strengthen it, but they won't work if there is no cell signal within range.
We like the WeBoost RV cell signal booster. It's specifically designed for the needs of RVers.
Get Starlink For RVs
Starlink is now specifically available for RV users. Starlink for RVs costs $599 for hardware and $135 per month. It's geared more toward fulltime RVers and digital nomads than weekend campers.
However, Starlink for RVs promises reliable, strong Wi-Fi signals for RV campers. That's as long as you are within Starlink satellite range and have an unobstructed view of the sky.
If you normally camp in RV parks within Starlink's available areas, then Starlink for RVs might be a good RV park internet solution for you.
Find more RV park internet solutions
Even though you might not be getting the best Wi-Fi signal at your RV campsite, it's possible to improve internet quality and speed. You may find that a Wi-Fi signal booster or cell signal booster does the job. Just because your RV park Wi-Fi is spotty, it doesn't mean you have to live without internet. Fortunately, there are plenty of RV park internet solutions to meet your needs.
One of the best parts about RVing is engaging with the community of traveling enthusiasts. iRV2 forums allow folks to chat with other RVers online, and get other perspectives on everything RVing, including products, destinations, RV mods, and much more.

When you are making a Plenty of Fish account, one of the most important things you need to display on your account is certainly the user name. If you get the perfect username right away, it's definitely good for you.
But if you don't, there is no need to worry because finding the best POF username ideas is indeed not easy.
When it comes to online dating site like Plenty of Fish, you should not take it lightly. Just like your profile picture, Plenty of Fish username is one of the first things the other uses look from your account.
It is your face, your business card, the representation of yourself on Plenty of Fish official website. If you haven't found a nice partner from POF online dating site, maybe it is because your username is boring and not attractive enough.
If it is the case, it is time to find some better POF username ideas.
There are millions of users in POF dating site. It means, there are millions possibilities to find the love of your life. But in the same time, it also means that you are competing with millions other users to find the perfect partner.
So, if the POF username ideas that you use don't exude confidence and attractiveness, no one will bother to visit your profile. To help you find the most perfect POF username ideas, you can use these following tips.
Take your time in choosing because the username of your Plenty of Fish account can really make or break your journey in finding love on this site.
Furthermore, you also should be careful in choosing POF username ideas because unless you upgrade your account, you will not be able to change the username.
Your username should reflect your character.
So, you might want to compile some adjectives that you can be used to describe yourself, such as "pretty", "cute", "affectionate", "charming", "loveable", "smart" or "lovely".
After that, to create the best POF username ideas, you need to combine that adjective with another word that also describes who you truly are.
This time, you can consider choosing your favorite hobbies, the foods you love the most or your favorite holiday destination. For example, "surfing", "strawberry", "travelling", "Neverland", "red", or "jasmine"
Now, you simply need to put those two words together, and you have some exciting POF username ideas you can use. Remember, your POF username should not only be eye catching, but also describe your personality.
However, make sure you should not choose negative words or words that have sexual meaning. You should avoid words like "lonely", "boring", "slutty", "whiny", and so on.
Furthermore, don't choose username that sounds sad and desperate like "ForeverAlone" or "AmIThatEasytoForget". Those usernames just don't scream confidence and will not get you anywhere. Be confident and don't bring the bad memories of your past relationship to this platform.
Instead, try using unique POF username ideas like "RavingRapper", "DazzlingDancer" or "StylishSurfer".
If you can be creative with your POF username, many Plenty of Fish members will find you charming and don't hesitate to message you.

The Preferential Option for the Poor: A Comparison of Interpretations
Marissa Browne '19
Theology and Spanish Major, CST Minor
The Preferential Option for the Poor: A Comparison of the Interpretations of Gustavo Gutierrez and Saint Pope John Paul II
For the past 50 years, the "preferential option for the poor" has made its mark on the Christian theological landscape: lifting up the voices of peoples cast aside, rooting the reflection
of theologians in the experiences of the poor, and inspiring social services and development initiatives. However, despite the embrace of the option for the poor by theologians, lay
Christians, and the Vatican, its "theological content" remains contested. In particular, the issue of the Option's hermeneutical dimension is still under debate. In an attempt to resolve some of this ambiguity, I undertake in this paper a comparative analysis of the theological commitments of two of the most influential supporters of the Preferential Option: Fr. Gustavo Gutiérrez and Pope Saint John Paul II. While Gutiérrez is known for developing the Preferential Option from its early stages, it is Pope John Paul's embrace of the option that brought it to the universal stage of the Catholic Church.

Sarah McCullum
I cannot tell you how very happy we were with the amazing food you prepared for our wedding and with the seamless service we received from your team. Your food and the Bride's Father's Speech were on top of all our guests thank you notes (some even mentioned the bride).

Catheter procedures are very common. They are quickly replacing surgery for many indications. Many vascular problems can be treated with catheters. Cath procedures are safe. Pain after cath procedures is not normal. It can signify a serious problem. For this reason pain after cath procedures should prompt immediate medical attention.
What is a Cath Procedure Anyway?
A cath procedure basically means that a wire is threaded into an artery or vein. The problem is fixed over this wire. Examples include dilating a narrowing with a balloon or sucking out clot with special equipment. Patients are typically awake for these procedures. Many cath procedures are actually day procedures. This means patients go home that day. Sometimes an overnight stay is required, especially if an artery was stuck or if a complex procedure was performed.
Causes of Pain After Cath Procedures
The source for pain after a cath procedure can be the skin, nerves, muscles, tendons or blood vessel walls. Any one or a combination of these structures could give rise to pain after a cath. The following are some of the more common or more dangerous reasons for pain after a catheterization:
- Hematoma – A hematoma means a blood collection. Because a catheterization involves making a hole in a blood vessel wall, bleeding may occur. Usually every effort is made to avoid a hematoma after a cath. This is done with special tools called closure devices or by compressing the area until the hole has sealed. However, sometimes bleeding occurs. A hematoma can cause pain by compressing the skin and nerves around it. A hematoma is probably one of the more common causes of pain after a cath.
- Skin infection – This is also called cellulitis. Any time the skin is penetrated infection can occur. During a cath procedure every effort is made to avoid skin infections. This is why these procedures often take place in special clean rooms called cath labs or in the operating suite. The skin is sterilized before the procedure and sterile drapes are also put around the area in order to minimize chances of infection. But still, sometimes infections occur. An infection of the skin around a cath site can be painful. The skin will typically be hot and sensitive. In people with fair skin, the skin color will be red because of the inflammation and increased blood flow to the area.
- Skin inflammation – Some patients are sensitive to some of the equipment or chemicals that are used during a catheterization. This sensitivity can manifest as very tender skin after a procedure. Some catheters are known to cause this side effect more than others. The skin may also develop a rash. This is a rare cause of pain after a cath, which makes it hard to suspect and hard to diagnose.
- Pseudoaneurysm – Sometimes after a catheterization blood flows out of the puncture site and into the surrounding tissue. This blood flow may be contained by the tissue and result in a "bubble" of flow. If this bubble compresses adjacent structures it can be painful. This movie is a short ultrasound clip showing a pseudoaneurysm:
- Nerve damage – Most catheterizations are performed with special tools that allow doctors to see what they are doing during the procedure. However, some structures in the body are too small to be visualized. When the skin is penetrated at the beginning of the catheterization small skin nerve fibers can be damaged. Sometimes these nerve fibers get "excited" from this injury and this may result in long-term pain. Some people feel uncomfortable at the catheterization site for many months after the procedure. The most likely explanation for this is that small nerves were damaged during the procedure. It is important to understand that these nerves are very small. Avoiding them during standard procedures is basically impossible.
- Blood clots – Any manipulation of blood vessels can result in blood clot formation. Inserting a catheter into a blood vessel is definitely such a manipulation. For this reason most catheterizations are performed while the patient is given blood thinners. But sometimes this is not enough and blood clots form. Blood clots forming in veins or arteries may result in pain. The pain in this case may actually occur at a distant site, because the clots may have moved or because the clots are blocking blood flow to that site.
Treatment of Pain After Cath Procedures
As you can see, there are multiple theoretical reasons for pain after cath procedures. Each cause will be treated differently. Infection, for example, is treated with antibiotics but a blood clot will be treated with blood thinners. For this reason if you experience pain after a cath it is best if you inform your physician immediately. It is better not to wait because some causes of pain such as a pseudoaneurysm may become worse without treatment. Your physician will need to tailor treatment according to the specific diagnosis of your pain.

Mermaid Lavaliere has new arrivals available! I love these pieces because the moon is such a sacred creation. Just looking at it calms the heart. I thank God so much for a beautiful making. I have a saying that I use to say, " I don't just sun bathe, I moon bathe," which is very therapeutic to sit under the stars and moon and meditate. So how do Mermaid's and the Moon correlate? There are myths that Mermaids wore "Moonstones" in the form of necklaces, and the full moon has such an impact on these creatures. Because a Mermaid loves her jewelry, these Druzy crescent shaped charms are attached to a gold vermeil chain which makes jewelry more durable in water without the tarnish that is done to gold filled or plated jewelry. I will go into the differences of gold plating in my next blog. For now, enjoy your fine jewelry Mermaid, you deserve "Beauty from Underneath".

Whether you're new to self-defense or are looking to brush up on your skills, knowing what to do in an emergency will keep you safe if the worst ever happens. The proper tips are particularly helpful if you're needing to protect yourself against an attacker who wants to hurt or subdue you. Researching and learning the best self-defense tips that can help save your life.
Unfortunately, the world isn't always as secure as we'd like it to be, and criminals can take advantage of that insecurity. By keeping yourself safe, you may be able to prevent criminal activity from ever happening at all. These tips for self-defense and safety will help keep you protect yourself no matter where you are or what you're doing:
1. Be Aware of Your Surroundings
One of the most important tips to protect yourself when out in public is to be aware of your surroundings. This means being alert of your surroundings, staying away from high-crime areas, locking your car doors, and avoiding people who are under the influence of drugs or alcohol. By paying attention to what's around you, you can avoid putting yourself in vulnerable situations. Do this by avoiding using electronics and talking on your phone when you're walking by yourself and generally paying attention to what's going on around you.
Likewise, when in a crowded place like a concert or movie theater, don't wear your purse on one shoulder. Keep it across both shoulders or in front of you.
2. Learn More About Human Trafficking
Proper human trafficking awareness is another important part of learning how to defend yourself against this potential threat. Research shows that there are roughly 3 million victims of human trafficking around the world. Almost 21 million people are forced into modern-day slavery as a result of human trafficking.
While human trafficking is an issue that most people know about, a lot of people don't truly understand how common it is and what they can do to help put an end to it. Make an effort to learn more about human trafficking in your area and the potential warning signs of human trafficking to help you protect yourself and others.
3. Learn Self-Defense
Another step to take to defend yourself is to know basic self-defense. Even if you use caution, there are ways that someone can attack you, so make sure to always be on guard and prepared to use your knowledge of self-defense. For example, moves like kicking the groin, scratching the eyes, and stomping on an attacker's feet are basic moves to escape a dangerous situation.
Practice these self-defense moves regularly to make sure they become part of your muscle memory. If you're hoping to improve your ability to defend yourself, consider taking professional self-defense courses.
4. Call for Help
If you find yourself in a dangerous situation, don't hesitate to call for help. When someone else is present and able to contact police and emergency services (such as a security guard or visitor), that person should be your first priority.
If possible, ask that person to stay with you while they make those calls. If someone is not present, call out to people who may be nearby; there could be people around who can help. You might also consider using your mobile phone or smartphone if you can get to it, but remember: never attempt anything risky alone and never use your phone when it might distract from an emergency situation.
5. Avoid Traveling Alone
To avoid being a victim, avoid traveling alone. The more people in your group, the less likely it is that you'll be targeted. Moreover, traveling with multiple people can protect you against physical assault or theft. If you must travel alone (or with only one other person), maintain awareness of what's going on around you–whether you're walking in a parking lot or taking public transportation. If there is anything unusual happening in your surroundings, find an alternative route or move to a safer location.
6. Use Social Media Carefully
While social media may seem like a harmless way to communicate with your friends and family, these channels can put you at risk for theft–online or in person. Many criminals will try to infiltrate your accounts on Facebook, Twitter, and other sites to gain access to information they can use to steal your identity or track your whereabouts through your posts. By changing your password frequently and watching the kind of information you share, you can protect yourself from potential threats.
7. Carry Pepper Spray
It's better to be safe than sorry when it comes to protecting yourself. Pepper spray is a non-lethal, non-toxic substance that can immobilize an attacker when sprayed into their eyes or face. You can purchase various sizes of pepper spray on Amazon for less than $10.
Have your pepper spray at your side in case of an emergency. If you are being followed by someone who may intend harm, keep the pepper spray handy and run to an area with other people around. Keep checking behind you as you move away from them, using the pepper spray if necessary. If you have no choice but to be alone in a dangerous situation, spraying them with pepper spray will give you time to get away safely without having to escalate further yourself.
It's no secret that crime rates are on the rise in most major cities in the United States and with that comes an increase in instances of violence and acts of aggression towards others. Keep this guide in mind to avoid the threat of human trafficking and abduction.

Sidney Poitier, a Hollywood trailblazer and the first Black man to win an Oscar for best actor, died Thursday. He was 94.
Among his long list of accolades, Poitier became the first African American actor to be nominated for an Academy Award for best actor (for "The Defiant Ones" in 1958) and six years later became the first Black man to win an Academy Award, this time for "Lilies of the Field."
Many of Poitier's memorable roles dealt with race in mainstream Hollywood films before others opted to do so.
Poitier was honored many times while he was alive: The American Film Institute included him on its 1999 list of greatest male Hollywood stars, Queen Elizabeth II knighted him in 1974 and President Barack Obama awarded him the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2009.
After his death many stars are continuing their praise by remembering and paying homage to the "landmark actor" and "man among men."
In a statement Friday, President Joe Biden honored Poitier as a "once-in-a-generation actor and advocate whose work carried so much dignity, power, and grace that it changed the world on and off the big screen."
"With unflinching grandeur and poise — his singular warmth, depth, and stature on-screen — Sidney helped open the hearts of millions and changed the way America saw itself," the president added. "He blazed a path for our Nation to follow, and a legacy that touches every part of our society today."
Biden continued: "Jill and I send our love and prayers to Sidney's wife, Joanna, his daughters, and his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. May God bless Sidney Poitier."
Director Martin Scorsese praised Poitier for his acting prowess and courageous artistry, calling him "a major figure in our cinema and in our culture."
"For years, the spotlight was on Sidney Poitier," Scorsese said in a statement. "It was almost always for reasons other than the fact that he was an excellent actor. With good reason, given the horrors he faced as a young man and the obstacles he had to overcome long after he became a star.
"But he had a vocal precision and physical power and grace that at moments seemed almost supernatural. His most widely remembered films are the ones that broke racial barriers in Hollywood, but he was just as good in many other pictures that we should all look at again, like 'No Way Out,' 'Edge of the City' or 'The Bedford Incident.' "
"Opened Doors"
Denzel Washington remembered Poitier as a friend who helped set the stage for him and many others.
"It was a privilege to call Sidney Poitier my friend. He was a gentle man and opened doors for all of us that had been closed for years," Washington said in a statement to USA TODAY Friday. "God bless him and his family."
Oprah Winfrey posted a touching photo of her and Portier embracing one another while smiling on Instagram.
"For me, the greatest of the 'Great Trees' has fallen: Sidney Poitier," Winfrey wrote. "My honor to have loved him as a mentor. Friend. Brother. Confidant. Wisdom teacher. The utmost, highest regard and praise for his most magnificent, gracious, eloquent life."
Viola Davis shared a picture of herself and Poitier together on Instagram writing a touching tribute to the legacy Poitier left others in Hollywood.
"The dignity, normalcy, strength, excellence and sheer electricity you brought to your roles showed us that we, as Black folks, mattered," Davis wrote. "You told us,'If your dreams do not scare you, they're not big enough!' I put this quote on my daughter's wall. Rest well Mr. Poitier. Thank you! Thank you for leaving a legacy. May flights of angels sing thee to thy rest."
Tyler Perry wrote a lengthy tribute to Poitier on Facebook, labeling him as his "North Star" in the industry.
"To wake up this morning to a call that Sidney Poitier has passed away… all I can tell you is that my heart broke in another place. The grace and class that this man has shown throughout his entire life, the example he set for me, not only as a black man but as a human being will never be forgotten," Perry wrote.
The 52-year-old screenwriter, actor and producer added details a "life changing" memory of him spending time with both Poitier and the late actress Cicely Tyson.
"I'll never forget inviting him and Cicely to fly to South Africa with me. Selfishly, I wanted to hold them both captive for the hours long trip as I literally sat at their feet and listened to their wisdom and experiences," he wrote. "All I can say is thank you for your life, thank you for your example, and thank you for your incredible gift. But most of all, thank you for being willing to share YOU to make us all better."
"Groundbreaking Roles"
Former President Barack Obama shared a photo of him, Michelle Obama and Portier in the White House.
"Through his groundbreaking roles and singular talent, Sidney Poitier epitomized dignity and grace, revealing the power of movies to bring us closer together. He also opened doors for a generation of actors," Obama wrote. "Michelle and I send our love to his family and legion of fans."
Don Cheadle said Friday he was "gutted" by Poitier's death.
"Lost another royal. Sir Poitier had no peer, and we'll never see his like again. He was the standard bearer for generations of actors/directors who came after him," Cheadle said in a statement to USA TODAY Friday, recalling the last time he saw Poitier "was at a golf course in L.A. I saw him across the room and walked toward him with my hand out to shake his. Ignoring my hand, he opened both of his arms wide and embraced me warmly.
"Then he let me go and held me at arm's length staring me in my eyes and said in his signature cadence, 'I dig what you do, my man.' I almost fainted. He told me to keep it up and keep representing us. I told him I would do my best and that he was irreplaceable. We were so blessed to have him for as long as we did, and he will be sorely and surely missed."
Poitier's work was so impactful in presenting opportunities for other minorities in the industry, one biographer dubbed him the "Martin Luther King of the movies."
Director Kenny Leon, who won a Tony for his 2014 rendition of the 1959 Broadway play "A Raisin in the Sun," in which Poitier was part of the original cast, remembered Poitier by thanking "God for sharing" the actor with the world.
"Rest in dear sweet peace sir Sidney Poitier..where would we be without your sacrifices? an artist among artist-a man among men," Leon wrote.
Whoopi Goldberg tweeted lyrics for the song that accompanied Poitier's 1967 film "To Sir, with Love," adding, "Sir Sidney Poitier R.I.P. He showed us how to reach for the stars."
Dionne Warwick recalled a time meeting Poitier when she was younger, which resulted in the late actor giving her a nickname.
"He once caught me following him. He said 'little girl what do you want' I muttered 'can I have your autograph,' " Warwick wrote. "From that day he always called me little girl and asked if I wanted his autograph. It was something we laughed about. He was my hero & great friend."
Jada Pinkett Smith wrote: "Trailblazing is not easy and you did it with grace and tenacity. I am grateful. Rest in Love."
"We lost an elegant King today. Thank you Sidney Poitier. For not only opening the door, but for walking in this world with endless grace and excellence, so that today, still, we follow behind you, reaching toward the example that you set," Kerry Washington wrote.
Blair Underwood tweeted: "The gift of your time and presence over the decades is not lost on me. You've exemplified selflessness and service in your every waking hour. Indeed, what a beautiful life you have lived & legacy to behold."
Like Perry, LeVar Burton also considered Poitier to be his "North Star" in entertainment, writing, "My North Star and guiding light. The very personification of elegance, eloquence, effortless grace and humanity, I have admired and emulated him my entire life. Without Sidney Poitier, quite simply, there would be no LeVar Burton."
Leyna Bloom posted on Instagram, reflecting on Poitier's impact: "Sidney Poitier thank you for your dedication to the power of art and giving our brothers and sister's a real vision of who we are and who we should always be."
"Heart is aching. Sir Sidney Poitier was not just a great actor. He was a wonderful human being and truly the most elegant man I ever met in my life. Rest Well Dear Brother," former "The View" host Star Jones wrote.
"Landmark Actor"
Rosie Perez wrote: "#SidneyPoitier's portrayal in 'To Sir, with love' literally changed me."
"Sidney Poitier. What a landmark actor. One of a kind. What a beautiful, gracious, warm, genuinely regal man. RIP, Sir. With love," "Westworld" actor Jeffrey Wright wrote.
"The Real" co-host Loni Love shared a memory meeting Poitier, writing, "What a thrill it was to meet the legendary actor Sidney Poitier.. he made us all feel proud and was an inspiration to us in an industry that at times could not be welcoming.. thank you Mr. Poitier rest well."
George Takei remembered Poitier as a "trailblazer who will be mourned by so many for whom he opened the very doors of Hollywood."
"Candyman" actor Colman Domingo wrote: "Until I can properly eulogize him later. Heart broken. I am because of him. He blazed a tremendous path for thespians such as me. I am forever grateful. Standing O for this giant."
Poitier's acting career began with the American Negro Theater and five years later, he was starring in his first feature film: "No Way Out," a hospital drama about a doctor (Poitier) confronted with racism by a white patient he is working to save. He went on to star in films such as "To Sir, with Love" and "In the Heat of the Night." Over the years, he built up a reputation for playing gentle, kind and smart characters.

In recent years, companies have been trying their best to offset their carbon footprint and reduce the damage to the environment by introducing many different policies and practices. Governments tend to support such action by incentivizing smarter, more sustainable changes, while fining companies that fail to adapt to the bare minimum.
However, when it comes to producing and managing waste, companies are still lagging behind, and many are producing so much more than they can handle. In countries such as Australia, there's a growing trend of recycling, and that does help to an extent, but the goal is to start reducing waste from the get-go and introduce better management solutions every step of the way.
Keeping track of waste
Knowledge is power, so it's up to you to collect and analyze any information you have that is related to your waste management policies. Understanding where your business stands with producing waste and managing it will help you figure out smarter solutions for reducing, recycling, repurposing, and any other step that will help with making your business eco-friendlier.
- Go back as far as possible to see your own energy and water use – remember, energy and water waste shouldn't be ignored simply because you don't have a bin that's overflowing with the extra energy you're using.
- Use analytics tools to spot trends in energy and water use uptake and see how you can curb the spending.
- Do the same for all physical waste you're producing. That way, you can create a trend chart and anticipate your future waste production – and see where you can make reductions.
Introducing waste management equipment
Depending on where your business is located, check with your local government what kind of legal frameworks there are for you to follow regarding waste management. To ensure sustainable waste management in Australia, many companies might benefit from introducing advanced equipment on-site, and elevating recycling efforts among their employees.
Different industries can utilize different waste management systems and preventative measures, so be sure to check what's available to your particular niche. Perhaps in addition to regular audits, you can install more innovative chute systems and improve waste collection and disposal.
Employee education
Most people want to lead more sustainable lives today, so they care about their own personal impact on the environment. The same applies to people who work as part of a larger unit, such as your own business.
- Share the audit's data with your employees, so that they know exactly how your business is doing in terms of waste management and creating waste, to begin with.
- They are sure to start asking questions, so be prepared to get specific as to where the waste is coming from and how they can do better.
- Provide ongoing educational modules to give your workers the information they need to start behaving more sustainably in the workplace and to implement better waste policies.
Partnering with waste-free businesses
Your business likely works with other, equally relevant companies in your professional ecosystem. You might be working with a local manufacturer, supplier, distributor, and all of those companies produce their own waste. Perhaps you can't change their internal policies, but you can definitely choose who you associate yourself with.
Earning that zero-waste distinction is only possible if you start choosing your partners and investors more wisely and aligned with your sustainability goals. Make sure that your entire chain of supply is waste-free or that at the very least your partners are abiding by the same waste reduction policies, working towards the same goals as you.
Rethinking the office
Although starting with the most wasteful processes such as manufacturing or inventory management is wise, you shouldn't neglect those smaller steps you can take in your pursuit of a waste-free business. Your office alone can be a great place for producing waste, but it can also become a herald of smarter practices about to change how you collaborate.
For starters, moving towards a paperless office helps reduce paper waste and deforestation in one move. Switching to a plastic-free lunch supplier also helps eliminate plastic from the office, while you can encourage employees to bring their favourite coffee mugs (or you can invest in a branded batch for them all), instead of using plastic or paper.
If you're operating a business in a developed, advanced country, you're at the forefront of change. Make sure to start adapting your waste management policies and aim to become waste-free as soon as possible. This kind of rapid change is precisely what the world needs to get rid of overflowing landfills and to manage our manufacturing in more sustainable, Earth-friendly ways.

If you don't mind seeing Amazon's ads and offers on your phone and you are a Prime subscriber, you can buy the device for $139.99 (with 16GB of storage), or $159.99 (with 32GB of space).
On the other hand, if you want an ad-free experience note that the E4 Plus' normal pricing is $179.99 (with 16GB of storage), and $199.99 with double that amount. These options are offered by Amazon alongside B&H, Best Buy, and Newegg. The E4 Plus' main claim to fame is its huge 5,000 mAh battery, since it's otherwise a pretty run of the mill lower-midrange smartphone.

Looking for better auto insurance rates for your Kia Sorento? Finding better insurance prices for your Kia Sorento could be a lot of work, but you can learn these tips to find lower rates. There are both good and bad ways to shop for auto insurance and we'll show you the proper way to get price quotes for a Kia and find the lowest price either online or from local insurance agents.
Buying car insurance is easy if you know what you're doing. If you have a current auto insurance policy or need a new policy, you will benefit by learning to shop for the lowest rates and still get good coverage. Drivers just need to know how to compare price quotes on the web.
Kia Sorento insurance rates consist of many parts
Consumers need to have an understanding of the different types of things that come into play when calculating insurance rates. When you know what positively or negatively influences your rates helps enable you to make changes that will entitle you to better insurance rates.
- Younger drivers pay higher rates – Older insureds are more cautious drivers, statistically cause fewer accidents and are safer drivers. Teen drivers are statistically proven to be more careless when behind the wheel therefore insurance rates are much higher.
- Lower rates with optional equipment – Owning a car with an alarm system can help lower your rates. Anti-theft devices such as tamper alarm systems, vehicle immobilizer technology and General Motors OnStar can help prevent your vehicle from being stolen.
- Marriage pays dividends – Having a wife or husband can actually save you money when buying insurance. Marriage usually means you are more mature and it's proven that married drivers get in fewer accidents.
- Don't let your coverage lapse – Driving your car without having proper coverage is against the law and your next policy will cost more because you let your coverage have a gap. And not only will insurance be more expensive, but being ticketed for driving with no insurance might get you a license revocation or jail time.
- Don't buy coverages you don't need – There are a lot of extra bells and whistles that you can get tricked into buying on your insurance policy. Coverages like rental car reimbursement, accidental death and motor club memberships are some examples. These may sound like a good investment when you first buy your policy, but if you don't need them get rid of them and save.
- Your location is important – Being located in a rural area can be a good thing when it comes to insurance. Drivers who live in large cities have to deal with much more traffic and longer commute times. Fewer drivers means fewer accidents.
- Safe vehicles cost less to insure – Cars with high safety ratings tend to have better insurance rates. These vehicles result in less severe injuries and fewer injuries means less money paid by your insurance company and thus lower rates. If your Kia Sorento is rated at least an "acceptable" rating on the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety website or four stars on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website you are probably receiving a discount.
- Consolidate policies to earn discounts – The majority of insurers give discounts to customers who have multiple policies with them such as combining an auto and homeowners policy. This can amount to five, ten or even twenty percent. Even though this discount sounds good, it's still a good idea to compare other company rates to make sure you are getting the best deal.
The easiest way to compare insurance rates from multiple companies utilizes the fact almost all companies pay for the opportunity to give you rate quotes. To begin a comparison, all you need to do is provide information such as how many miles driven, if it has an anti-theft system, what your job is, and whether your vehicle is owned or leased. That rating information is automatically sent to multiple insurance providers and they respond with quotes instantly to find the best rate.
Don't be fooled by advertising claims
Consumers can't get away from ads for the lowest price auto insurance from companies such as Progressive, GEICO, Allstate and State Farm. All the companies have a common claim of big savings if you switch your policy.
How does each company make the same claim? It's all in the numbers.
Insurance companies have a certain "appetite" for the type of customer they prefer to insure. For instance, a preferred risk might be profiled as between 25 and 40, has no prior claims, and has a high credit rating. Any new insured who meets those qualifications will get the preferred rates and most likely will save when switching.
Consumers who don't measure up to this ideal profile will be quoted a higher premium and ends up with business not being written. The ad wording is "customers that switch" but not "drivers who get quotes" save that kind of money. That is how insurance companies can claim big savings. This emphasizes why drivers must compare many company's rates. Because you never know the company that will give you the biggest savings on Kia Sorento insurance.
Cut prices on 2013 Kia Sorento insurance
Car insurance companies don't list every discount very well, so we researched some of the more common and also the lesser-known insurance coverage savings. If you don't get every credit available, you are throwing money away.
- Early Signing – A few companies offer discounts for buying a policy prior to your current policy expiring. This can save 10% or more.
- Claim Free – Good drivers with no accidents can save substantially compared to drivers who are more careless.
- Student in College – Youth drivers who are attending college and don't have a car can be insured at a reduced rate.
- Paperwork-free – Some insurance companies will discount your bill up to fifty bucks for buying your policy over the internet.
- Memberships – Participating in a civic or occupational organization is a good way to get lower rates when shopping for insurance coverage for Sorento coverage.
- Low Mileage – Keeping the miles down on your Kia can qualify you for a substantially lower rate.
- No Charge for an Accident – Some insurance companies permit an accident before raising your premiums if your claims history is clear prior to the accident.
Keep in mind that some of the credits will not apply to the entire cost. Some only apply to the price of certain insurance coverages like liability, collision or medical payments. Just because it seems like it's possible to get free car insurance, you won't be that lucky.

Insurance policy coverages for a 2013 Kia Sorento
Learning about specific coverages of insurance helps when choosing the best coverages for your vehicles. The terms used in a policy can be ambiguous and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording.
Collision coverage
This coverage will pay to fix damage to your Sorento from colliding with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. A deductible applies then your collision coverage will kick in.
Collision coverage protects against things like hitting a parking meter, sideswiping another vehicle, crashing into a building and rolling your car. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are older. Drivers also have the option to increase the deductible to bring the cost down.
Liability coverage protects you from damages or injuries you inflict on other's property or people by causing an accident. This coverage protects you from legal claims by others. It does not cover damage to your own property or vehicle.
Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. As an example, you may have policy limits of 25/50/25 that translate to $25,000 bodily injury coverage, $50,000 for the entire accident, and a limit of $25,000 paid for damaged property.
Liability coverage pays for things such as pain and suffering, repair costs for stationary objects, bail bonds and court costs. How much liability should you purchase? That is a decision to put some thought into, but it's cheap coverage so purchase as much as you can afford.
Uninsured or underinsured coverage
Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle's occupants from other motorists when they are uninsured or don't have enough coverage. This coverage pays for medical payments for you and your occupants and damage to your Kia Sorento.
Since a lot of drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, it doesn't take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. So UM/UIM coverage is a good idea.
Medical expense coverage
Med pay and PIP coverage reimburse you for bills for rehabilitation expenses, chiropractic care and funeral costs. They are often used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. Coverage applies to not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and also covers if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal injury protection coverage is only offered in select states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
Comprehensive protection
Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.
Comprehensive coverage protects against things like hail damage, vandalism, hitting a bird and hitting a deer. The maximum payout a insurance company will pay at claim time is the actual cash value, so if it's not worth much more than your deductible consider dropping full coverage.
What is YOUR best insurance company?
We've covered some good ideas how you can compare 2013 Kia Sorento insurance prices online. It's most important to understand that the more rate comparisons you have, the higher the chance of saving money. Consumers could even find that the best prices are with the smaller companies.
When you buy insurance online, do not skimp on coverage in order to save money. There have been many cases where an accident victim reduced comprehensive coverage or liability limits only to discover later they didn't have enough coverage. The aim is to buy the best coverage you can find at the best price, not the least amount of coverage.
Low-cost insurance is definitely available on the web and also from your neighborhood agents, so compare prices from both to have the best selection. Some insurance providers may not provide online price quotes and these regional insurance providers work with independent agents.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the color of my 2013 Kia Sorento affect my insurance rates?
No, the color of your vehicle does not typically affect your insurance rates. Insurance companies primarily consider factors such as the make, model, age, engine size, safety features, and repair costs of your car when determining premiums.
Will adding safety features to my 2013 Kia Sorento lower my insurance rates?
Yes, adding safety features to your 2013 Kia Sorento can potentially lower your insurance rates. Features like anti-lock brakes, airbags, traction control, and electronic stability control are considered safety enhancements that reduce the risk of accidents or injuries. Some insurance companies offer discounts for vehicles equipped with these safety features.
Can my credit score impact my insurance rates for a 2013 Kia Sorento?
Yes, in many states, insurance companies may consider your credit score when calculating your insurance rates. Statistically, individuals with lower credit scores have been found to file more insurance claims, which can result in higher premiums. It's important to maintain good credit to potentially qualify for lower insurance rates.
Will my insurance rates be higher if I have a history of accidents or violations with my 2013 Kia Sorento?
Yes, having a history of accidents or traffic violations with your 2013 Kia Sorento can lead to higher insurance rates. Insurance companies consider your driving record when determining risk, and a history of accidents or violations suggests a higher likelihood of future claims. Safe driving and maintaining a clean record can help keep your insurance rates lower.
Can I lower my insurance rates for my 2013 Kia Sorento by increasing my deductible?
Yes, increasing your deductible—the amount you pay out of pocket before insurance coverage kicks in—can lower your insurance rates. A higher deductible means you assume more financial responsibility in the event of a claim, which reduces the insurance company's risk. However, it's important to ensure you can comfortably afford the chosen deductible amount if you need to file a claim.
Will my insurance rates decrease as my 2013 Kia Sorento ages?
Generally, the insurance rates for your 2013 Kia Sorento may decrease as it ages. Older vehicles typically have lower market values and may cost less to repair or replace. However, other factors such as your driving record, coverage options, and insurance company's policies also influence your rates. It's recommended to periodically review and compare insurance quotes to ensure you're getting the best rate for your aging vehicle.

After waiting almost the entire first round, the Arizona Diamondbacks were able to draft the guy they were targeting. With the 26th pick in the MLB Draft, they selected high school catcher Stryker Trahan.
The young left-handed hitting catcher, from Louisiana, has a big bat. He batted .460 with five homers and 39 RBI, slugging .736.
Before you think that the D-backs have drafted the eventual replacement for catcher Miguel Montero, there are doubts about his ability to play catcher at the highest level. His bat is way ahead of his glove and there is the possibility he gets moved to another position, such as a corner outfield position.
However, with his youth, swing and strength from the left side of the plate, Arizona was able to get the guy they really wanted.
