Wrestling – Hit the Ground Running: NJSIAA State Tournament
Follow Bob Badders on Twitter for updates from the NJSIAA Individual State Tournament
ATLANTIC CITY — Shawn McCord was riding high and breathing easy heading into the 2014 NJSIAA Individual State Tournament, which is pretty much never the case for a wrestler stepping onto the mats at Boardwalk Hall for the first time.
McCord, however, is among the many wrestlers each year who are simply happy to have qualified for the state tournament. The pressure was heavy in the Region VI Tournament, but when he finished third and became Red Bank Catholic's first state qualifier since 1983, a weight was off his shoulders. Friday night in Boardwalk Hall he wrestled smart and loose, and the result was something he couldn't have imagined a few months ago.
McCord defeated Bergen Catholic's Christian Jenco, 2-1, in the preliminary round, then pinned Parsippany Hills' Steven Hill in the pre-quarterfinals to reach the quarterfinal round of the state tournament at 220 pounds. Eight wrestlers in New Jersey are still alive for the 220-pound title, and McCord is one of them.
"My main goal was to get here, and in regions I was way more nervous," McCord said after he decked Hill early in the third period. "Down here I actually feel comfortable and able to wrestle to the best of my ability."
Jenco is a former state qualifier and a standout for Bergen Catholic, the No. 1 team in the state and a top-10 team in the country. One takedown was all McCord needed.
"My confidence went up 10-fold after that," McCord said. "I wasn't really nervous, and I knew I could get the job done. I trained with (CBA's Mike) Oxley all week, and it helped my explosiveness. I knew that if you can't get up in states you're not going to win."
McCord then took out Hill, the Region III champion, with a fall in 4:13. McCord was leading 5-2 after two periods. Now he gets Wayne Valley's Justin Walker (35-3) in the quarterfinals, which begins Saturday at noon. A win there would move him into the semifinals and guarantee him no worse than a sixth-place finish. Red Bank Catholic has had just three state medalists in program history. Tom Seitz won the 108-pound state title in 1974 and finished third in 1973. Bill Herchakowski's seventh/eighth-place finish at 141 pounds in 1979 stands as the Caseys' last state place-winner.
"I'm just trying to shine in the spotlight," McCord said. "This is everyone's goal. Everyone wants to be in the position I'm in now. I just want to keep winning and make it on the podium."
Whereas McCord comes from a program with very little wrestling tradition, Joe Ghione comes from one of the state's most storied wrestling programs. The Brick Memorial senior advanced to the quarterfinals with a pin in 1:40 over Robbinsville's Nicholas Bossie and then a 12-6 decision over Bordentown's Justin McTamney, the latter of whom was sixth in the state last season at 132 pounds. He'll wrestle St. Peter's Prep's Connor Burkert in the quarterfinals.
Ghione's career has certainly had its ups and downs. He's a two-time state medalist, a two-time Region VI champion and helped Brick Memorial capture the 2013 Group IV title. He's also had his share of crushing defeats, and this season battled through a serious elbow injury that nearly derailed his final high school season.
"At one point in the season I thought maybe I should just pack it in," Ghione said. "I thought I was going to have to get Tommy John surgery and that I would just have to get ready for Lock Haven. Coaches said they'd get me back, and since Shore Conference's I've been doing three-a-days."
Last season he broke his collarbone in a bout with Delbarton's Christian Innarella in the pre-quarterfinals. He tried to give it a go in the wrestlebacks but the injury was too severe, and he was eventually pinned by Colts Neck's Pete Ottaviano.
"I think I have some unfinished business from last year to catch up on," Ghione said.
Ghione gets Burkert, who was seventh in the state at 132 pounds last season, in the afternoon with a trip to the semifinals on the line.
"If there's a time to get it right it's this weekend," Ghione said. "I have no other time. This is it for me. Right now is the time to finish strong."
Keansburg's Tyree Sutton won just the second and third bouts by a Keansburg wrestler in state tournament history when he defeated Parsippany Hills' Nick D'Uva, 9-3 in the preliminary round, before edging Wayne Valley's Anthony Landberg, 4-3, to reach the 195-pound quarterfinals. Sutton is Keansburg's second state qualifier in program history. The first, heavyweight Anthony Cosentino, won his preliminary bout in the 2005 state tournament when he was the Titans' first state entrant. Now, Sutton is just one victory from becoming the program's first ever state medalist.
"It feels so great being here," Sutton said. "I'm 2-0 right now, and I'm looking to win three more and be a state champ."
He will face Emerson/Park Ridge's Robbie Maggiulli in the quarterfinals. Maggiulli is the Region II champion and is 32-0 this season.
"Anyone can be beat," Sutton said. "I didn't win districts or regions, but I feel like I can win it all. I wasn't predicted to make it this far, but I'm going to prove people wrong."
Friday's opening two rounds started off great for the Shore Conference, as area wrestlers went 21-7 in the preliminary round that pits the second- and third-place region finishers against one another. The pre-quarterfinal round saw the Shore go under. 500 with just 15 wrestlers still alive for a state championship.
Joining Sutton in the 195 quarterfinals is Oxley, who pinned Lower Cape May's Corey Damiana with a cross-face cradle 17 seconds into the second period. Damiana entered the bout with a 37-1 record. Oxley will wrestle Brearley/Dayton's Jeff Velez (35-4) in the quarterfinals.
"I know every match is going to be tight, but I've been preparing all season for this so I know I have it in me," Oxley said. "I've been working all year for this tournament, so I'm going to let it fly and show everyone what I got."
Point Boro senior Ryan Budzek received one of the toughest draws in the entire tournament at 126 pounds, but started off on the right foot with a 1-0 decision over DePaul's Matt Noble. He wrestles Monroe's Sal Profaci, who outlasted Innarella 3-2, in the quarterfinals.
CBA sophomore Sebastian Rivera pinned Manville's Brian Kuhlman before defeating Haddon Township's Chris Wolf, 5-2, to reach the quarterfinals at 106 pounds. He faces Delbarton's Ty Agaisse in the quarterfinals. Agaisse, who was seventh last season and is currently the No. 4 ranked 106-pounder in the nation, pinned Jackson Memorial's Fred Terranova in the pre-quarterfinals.
Toms River South sophomore Owen McClave scored an 8-0 major decision over Voorhees' Kyle DiNapoli at 113 pounds to move into the quarterfinals against Clearview sophomore Zack Firestone (36-1).
Jackson Liberty junior Mike Russo won by 12-2 major decision over Nutley's Joseph Ferinde at 120 pounds. Russo (36-0), who was fourth in the state at 106 last season, wrestles Jefferson senior Bryan Damon (37-2) in the quarters. Damon was fifth at 113 last season.
Rumson-Fair Haven junior Marcus Iwama defeated Paramus's Alex Sebahie 11-4 at 132 pounds to move into the quarterfinals and one win from a top-six finish. Iwama wrestles Paulsboro's Juan Rivera (36-4) next as he tries to become just the third state medalist in program history.
At 145, Southern's Zach Wilhelm pinned North Bergen's Manny Dominguez in 3:11 to reach the quarterfinals where he will face Clearview senior John Van Brill (36-0).
Both Wall's Brett Donner and Howell's Joey Schultz reached the quarterfinals at 160 pounds. Donner majored Morris Knolls' Dean Drugac, 14-3, to set up a rematch with Riverside's Christian Stackhouse. Stackhouse (39-0) handed Donner his only loss of the season on a controversial overtime call in the Mustang Classic finals. Schultz topped DePaul's Nick Carey, 11-4, in his opening bout, then majored Region VIII champ James Ingersol from Egg Harbor, 12-4. Schultz gets undefeated John Faugno (37-0) of Glen Ridge in the quarterfinals.
Southern senior Gerardo Jorge used a takedown in double overtime to defeat Holy Cross's Kenny Long, 4-3 at 170 pounds. Earlier in the night, Jorge won a 4-3 double overtime decision from Becton/Wallington's Nathan Bueno. Jorge has Don Bosco Prep's Luke Farinaro in the quarterfinals. Farinaro was fifth in the state at 170 last season and is 30-5 this year.
Brick Memorial senior Nick Costa recorded his 100th career victory in the 182-pound pre-quarterfinals by defeating Ridge's Cort Hotz, 6-3. Costa, who placed seventh at 182 last season, faces Ocean City's Cooper Gallagher (37-1) in the quarterfinals. Costa will be joined by teammate Tyler Poling, who topped West Morris Central's Jesse Windt, 3-0, at 220 pounds. Poling faces Hopewell Valley's Mike Markulec in the quarters.
Action resumes Saturday at 10 a.m. with the first round of wrestlebacks on eight mats followed by the quarterfinals on four mats at noon.

Conference Year
rotary, novel, experiment, performance, design
Over the years, rotary compressors have gained popularity and widely used in household and automotive air-conditioning applications because of the compact nature and silent characteristics. By engaging a revolutionary concept to elevate the rotary compressor efficiency, a novel compressor mechanism, named the Revolving Vane compressor is invented. The prototype R134a compressor was designed, fabricated, instrumented and tested. Compressor tests were conducted for varying suction pressures, superheats, discharge pressures and oil circulation ratio. For each test, refrigerant mass flow rate, power consumption, suction and discharge temperatures and pressures were recorded. The new compressor mechanism has been proven for its compression ability and the preliminary measurements show comparable volumetric and mechanical efficiencies to the other existing compressors. In addition, the novel compressor design is outstanding for its cost competitiveness due to mechanism simplicity. It is foreseen that this new compressor will be a great candidate in future air-conditioning and refrigeration market.

Forescout and CrowdStrike Form Strategic Alliance to Deliver Advanced Endpoint and Network Threat Protection
- Forescout and CrowdStrike join forces to help organizations combat endpoint and network threats targeting traditional and IoT devices
- New partnership will enable joint threat hunting and automated incident response to help protect against data breaches
- Technology alliance will allow organizations to improve security hygiene and reduce mean time to respond (MTTR) to advanced threats across the endpoint and network
SAN JOSE, Calif., October 10, 2017 – Forescout Technologies, Inc., a leading Internet of Things (IoT) security company, and CrowdStrike, the leader in cloud-delivered endpoint protection, today announced a strategic alliance that will deliver comprehensive visibility, threat detection and security response for joint customers. Through this partnership, the two companies will monitor threats across endpoint and network tiers, share threat analytics and extend protection and policy control to unmanaged Bring-Your-Own-Device (BYOD), guest and IoT devices.
"Enterprises continue to be impacted by massive data breaches and cybersecurity attacks largely due to blind spots caused by undetected devices. To help solve this problem, Forescout and CrowdStrike are forming a new strategic partnership that will offer a combination of extended device discovery, security intelligence and greater control to keep threats out and strengthen cyber hygiene," said Michael DeCesare, president and CEO, Forescout. "The collaboration and joint value of two market-leading cybersecurity companies will provide our customers with increased visibility and advanced threat analytics for better protection against malicious activity."
Modern enterprise networks are challenged with managing increasingly complex environments along with exponential growth in volume and diversity of devices. The rise of network-connected devices has increased the attack surface, making it more challenging for organizations to prevent, detect and respond to cyber attacks. Forescout and CrowdStrike will streamline and improve security operations for customers by leveraging Forescout's advanced device visibility and control capabilities combined with CrowdStrike's AI-enabled threat analytics platform.
"Many security solutions fail to deliver accurate and meaningful threat insight, which is why organizations are constantly falling prey to cyber attacks," said George Kurtz, co-founder and CEO, CrowdStrike. "With real-time endpoint detection and response, combined with next-generation threat prevention and proactive threat hunting, organizations will be able to gain an advantage in today's vast threat landscape. The alliance between Forescout and CrowdStrike is a better-together approach that will transform how customers protect their network against today's cybersecurity challenges and tomorrow's threats."
The technology partnership between Forescout and CrowdStrike will provide the following benefits to joint customers:
- Comprehensive visibility and posture assessment across network-connected devices, including corporate devices while employees are off the enterprise network
- Improved agent health and compliance on CrowdStrike managed devices
- Sharing of threat intelligence across solutions to take more informed actions
- Joint threat hunting for Indicators of Attack (IoAs) across endpoint and network tiers
- Automated threat response to protect against malware targeting traditional and IoT devices
In addition to the go-to-market relationship, Forescout and CrowdStrike intend to build an integrated solution to further support their joint customers. CrowdStrike is an industry leader in the endpoint protection market and the latest partner in Forescout's portfolio of more than 70 technology and alliance partners. Through these partnerships and integrations, Forescout is able to orchestrate infrastructure-wide security management to make formerly disjointed security products work as one, eliminating security gaps, accelerating incident response, automating workflows and optimizing existing investments.

Best of Cog: Steve Almond Is Mitt Romney... And So Are You
"There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what ... who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims. ... These are people who pay no income tax. ... and so my job is not to worry about those people. I'll never convince them that they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives," Romney said.
The uproar was immediate and intense. Pundits, critics and supporters alike speculated that it might cost him the election. There's no way to tell how much of an impact it had, but we know now how it turned out.
Long before Romney's fate was sealed though, the former Massachusetts governor found an unlikely defender in Steve Almond. In his Sept. 21, 2012, piece "We Are All Mitt Romney," Almond writes that though he finds the content of Romney's spiel "totally despicable":
... there's been something especially unsettling about watching this latest flap unfold. And it's this: All of us who are sitting in judgment of Romney have behaved exactly like him in our own lives ... this is just what people do. We present one version of ourselves in public — kind, reasonable, sensitive — and another in private. Away from the scrutiny of those who might judge us, we feel liberated to ditch the politesse.
Almond says whether you agree with him or not, there was little doubt you were seeing "the real Mitt Romney":
He wasn't awkwardly trying to play a man of the people, or singing off-key, or making baffling jokes about the height of trees. He was telling a bunch of people he trusted what he really believes. Isn't that what all our candidates should be doing?
We asked Almond for an update, now that the election is behind us and the public has had plenty of time to fill the comments thread with reaction to his piece:
I learned long ago that the comments section of any article is the place to go for good old American idiocy. Still, it was something of a shock that so many people missed the point of the article. One guy even called it a "shill piece" for Romney. Wow. I guess he skipped the part where I called Romney's 47 percent comments "totally despicable and unsurprising." It was, after all, all the way down in the second paragraph. Anyway, the piece was not an endorsement of Mitt Romney. It was an endorsement of candor. Yeah for candor!
Some readers did not appreciate the suggestion that they in any way resembled Gov. Romney:
Edith: We are not all Mitt Romney and to assert that we are requires a stretch of the imagination. When most people get together with their friends to 'say what we really think' it makes no difference. Most of us have no power.
Pointpanic: ...not only was Romney not factually accurate but he was also condescending to the people he professes to want to serve.

April 17 Birthday Horoscope
If Today is Your Birthday: April 17
The Year Ahead
Forecast for April 2011 to April 2012
If You Were Born Today, April 17:
You have inner strength and persistence that helps you to overcome obstacles. You understand things that go over others' heads, and your sense of humor is spirited. The drive for material security is strong. Power struggles are often present in your love relationships, generally because you tend to be attracted to people who as strong-minded as you are. Famous people born today: Victoria Beckham, Thornton Wilder, Jennifer Garner.
Your Birthday Year Forecast:
A Full Moon in your Solar Return chart marks this as a year of great personal significance, when major new beginnings, endings, and activities occur. This period is the culmination of a stage of personal growth and development. Events occurring this year may bring various developments in your emotional, psychological, or spiritual life over the past several years to a head. Relationships are especially important. There can be increased activity in your professional and public life, causing a conflict with your domestic and personal goals. There is little moderation in your life this year. Connections are made or ended; or your job focus may change as one focus fades to make way for a new direction. The year ahead is certain to be a very busy, dynamic, and significant period in your life.
This year, you are likely to form new relationships or connections that further your spiritual growth, or to enhance existing relationships with a spirit of camaraderie. Events take place in which you feel like you are moving forward and growing into a new phase of your life. You might assume a leadership role quite naturally this year.
Saturn opposes your Sun this year starting in December 2011. During this time period, you may experience some form of disillusionment with regards to an important person in your life, with authority figures, with personal plans and achievements, or with aspects of your own personality. You may feel "left out", blocked from advancing in your chosen life path, or temporarily lacking in energy and confidence. Ego boosts don't seem to be forthcoming, or if they are, you don't see them in such a light. Some sort of buckling down is necessary at this time, and is often perceived as limitations coming from other people or from circumstances. A general feeling of "slowdown" is likely, and if regular tasks seem more overwhelming than usual, it is likely due to poor spirits and lack of motivation. Sometimes, this transit is associated with problems with the teeth, bones in general, and the skin. It is also associated with mechanical breakdowns in your life. However, these generally happen because you haven't been managing your life effectively, and Saturn calls upon you to identify the weaker areas of your life, and to fix or strengthen them. Take the time to sort out your life, improve your work, and to become more efficient. Taking a slow and steady approach to life is necessary now. Pushing too hard will likely lead to frustration and setbacks. Take it easy and work on self-improvement. Results are not immediate, but will eventually come and bring healthy rewards.
You can be very persevering this year, and tend to pick yourself up quickly after a fall. You could move mountains when it comes to pushing your projects ahead this year. However, avoid taking extreme measures to make things happen your way, and avoid people who might be doing same. Deliberately trying to maneuver things in order to get the upper hand will be a lesson in frustration.
Avoid holding on too tightly to the past – to outworn attitudes and situations that are holding you back from moving forward, as this can be a tendency this year. In love matters, this can be especially important. In order to move forward, you need to lay to rest the attachments or attitudes that have been preventing you from opening your life to love.
Mercury conjunct Mars and Jupiter in your Solar Return chart indicates that your ability to express yourself and to solve problems is enhanced. You have many ideas and simply need the time to implement them! You may have opportunities to travel this year, and matters related to publishing, teaching, and writing should go especially well. You may find that you have the right information at the right time this year. You could also have big ideas and plans. Work, especially in communications, goes well. You are able to visualize in broader terms and see the "big picture" now. Your optimism can help you to attract positive circumstances into your life. You are especially enthusiastic about your ideas, and expressing yourself verbally and in written from comes easily. Public relations and negotiations tend to run especially smoothly. This is a time for making long-range plans, seeing the big picture, and thinking about what is really important to you in the long run.
However, you might often seem to have to make difficult decisions in which both alternatives seem to be equally as desirable. There may often be "either-or" situations, and sacrifices might need to be made between material and spiritual gains. Indecisiveness can be a result.
You may find yourself in high demand this year. You can reach a new level of commitment with your work, although you should avoid pushing yourself (or others!) too strenuously. Taking the lead may often be necessary, although you might sometimes feel alone in your decision making. You can be quite fixated on the past this year, but obstacles in your life will only disappear if you can let go of outworn attitudes that are no longer serving you well.
2011 is a Number Seven year for you. Ruled by Neptune. This is a year of preparation, chance, and refinement. It is not a time of dramatic changes. Instead, it's a year when reflection on the past is helpful, and when refinements to your life path should be made. It's a good year to study and analyze. Unexpected twists to your life story and "chance" meetings are probable. Advice – take stock of your life in order to prepare for more exciting years to come, examine the past and plan for the future, get in touch with your deepest needs and uncover your personal power, don't strain yourself or actively try to expand.
2012 will be a Number Eight year for you. Ruled by Saturn. This is a year of power and accomplishment. Actively seeking to expand, taking educated risks, and moving forward are highlighted. This is a year of opportunity, particularly in the material and business world, and opportunities need to be seized. It's generally not a year to find a new love partner, simply because the focus is on the material world and your place in the world. This is a problem-solving year in which you can expect real, tangible results. Advice – take action, plan ahead, seize opportunities.

Web of Wyrd
A modern representation of the Web of Wyrd, the matrix of fate (wyrd) as woven by the Nornir, the fates of Norse legend. The emblem, nine staves arranged in an angular grid, contains all of the shapes of the runes and therefore all of the past, present, and future possibilities they represent. The web of wyrd serves as a reminder that the actions of the past affect the present and that present actions affect the future; all timelines are inextricably interconnected. Believed to be a symbol of fate by Nordic and Anglo Saxon peoples.
In Old English, "Wyrd" was formed from the verb "weorþan" meaning "to come to pass". Leading to the word "Weird" we use today.

Kanye West is working on a new album titled God's Country, with new music that could be dropping soon, a source close to the rapper has confirmed.
The renowned cinematographer and artist Arthur Jafa made the revelation in a recent Instagram Live chat with French artist Michèle Lamy. During the conversation Jafa told Lamy he's recently been "really busy" on a video-focused collaboration with West.
"It's from his new record," Jafa said, albeit noting that the project is not connected with West's Sunday Service experience. "It's called God's Country and this will be, like, the first single, I guess, off of it. I don't know if I'm supposed to not be announcing it or whatever. I may just be spilling the beans. But yeah it's from a new record that's forthcoming. I don't know when the album is coming out but the single, I think, maybe some time next week. Maybe. It's not sure. It's not definite."
Jafa previously used Kanye's 2016 track "Ultralight Beam" in his film, Love Is The Message, The Message Is Death. The award-wining visual artist has also created music videos for the likes of Solange and JAY-Z.
Kanye West has yet to make an official announcement regarding imminent new music, particularly with regards to a title and possible release date.

Fred Rogers on Childhood
Putting the Statue in Place and the Unveiling on November 5, 2009
The November 5th dedication of the "Tribute to Children" statue on Pittsburgh's North Shore, marks Fred Rogers' place in the history of the city where he spent most of his working life serving children and families. It's a great honor to see his statue serving as a symbol of Pittsburgh as a family-friendly city – and as an inspiration to all of us to be responsive to the needs of children. As Fred Rogers said, "Although children's "outsides" may have changed, their inner needs have remained very much the same...children always need to know that they are loved and capable of loving. Anything that adults can do to help in this discovery will be our greatest gift to the future."
Below is a press release issued the day of the event
Several hundred friends and dignitaries joined Mrs. Joanne Rogers along with children from the southwestern Pennsylvania region as they gathered on Pittsburgh's North Shore this morning for the unveiling and dedication of the world's first public sculpture of the beloved American icon, Fred M. Rogers.
Known as "Tribute to Children," the site featuring the new sculpture opens to the public today in a park on the riverfront near Pittsburgh Steelers' Heinz Field. The bronze sculpture of children's television pioneer Mister Rogers – created by internationally renowned sculptor Robert Berks – measures 10 feet, 10 inches in height and weighs more than 7,000 pounds.
In a seated position and tying his shoe, the embodiment of Fred Rogers faces the city skyline from where his "beautiful day in this neighborhood" message resonates internationally for more than four decades from the Pittsburgh studio of public television station WQED.
A fitting tribute to children everywhere, and following 20 months of site construction, this new destination for visitors was presented today to local authorities as a gift to the people of the City of Pittsburgh and Allegheny County in honor of children and celebrating the enduring values of Fred Rogers. The late Cordelia S. May donated the sculpture to Family Communications, the company created by Fred Rogers. Pittsburgh-based Colcom Foundation, which was founded by Mrs. May, provided funding for the site development as well as its perpetual maintenance.
Mrs. Joanne Rogers, City of Pittsburgh Mayor Luke Ravenstahl, Allegheny County Chief Executive Dan Onorato and officials from Colcom Foundation and Family Communications attended this morning's unveiling ceremony, accompanied by students from Pittsburgh Public Schools' Creative and Performing Arts (CAPA) magnet school who performed during the ceremony.
Six years in the making
The late Mrs. Cordelia S. May, a local philanthropist and humanitarian, commissioned Robert Berks to produce the bronze sculpture of her dear friend, Fred Rogers, following his death in 2003. "Robert Berks is an internationally-recognized artist whose sculptures were known and admired both by Mrs. May and Mr. Rogers," according to Michael M. Strueber, director emeritus of the Southern Alleghenies Museum of Art and a director of Colcom Foundation. "Berks' public works cover a broad cross-section of human achievement as he created more than 300 portraits in bronze and more than a dozen monuments. His famous sculptures of President John F. Kennedy, Albert Einstein and Golda Meir are known throughout the world, and his choice to create the monument we dedicate today was highly appropriate since public art can do many things: inspire, unite, immortalize, commemorate and celebrate."
Family Communications, the recipient of this gift, is donating the "Tribute to Children" site to the region under the auspices of the Sports & Exhibition Authority.
"Tribute to Children is an appropriate name for this beautiful space," said Joanne Rogers, chair of Family Communications. "Fred would want today's dedication not to be about him, but to focus on the importance of being a caring person and neighbor. Fred was very fond of Pittsburgh's rivers as they represented a place to enjoy peaceful contemplation. We are so grateful to the late Mrs. May, Colcom Foundation, the City of Pittsburgh and Allegheny County for this very special tribute."
"Along with Family Communications, we are pleased to honor children and Fred Rogers through this project," added Timothy M. Inglis, president of Colcom Foundation. "'Tribute to Children' also honors one of the last wishes of our founder, Mrs. May, who passed away in 2005. It was her vision to create a lasting tribute to Fred Rogers, overlooking the city he loved."
A new destination
"Tribute to Children" features a walk around platform – measuring approximately 96 feet by 59 feet – and thoughtfully repurposes and engages the old Manchester Bridge pier that had been abandoned since 1970. The base of the platform is patterned from the studio floor in Mister Rogers' Neighborhood known asthe famed 'Neighborhood of Make-Believe.' The site was designed by Pittsburgh-based Astorino, an architectural firm.
From the landside, visitors enter "Tribute to Children" from the sidewalk across the street from Heinz Field and are able to walk around and through a 'keyhole' design in the bridge pier that features spectacular riverside views of the statue, the river and the city skyline.
The site will be open during the park's regular daily hours and will not be open at night until November 20 when it will be lit for the first time during Pittsburgh's annual Light Up Night festivities.
"Through this new attraction, Fred Rogers will be remembered for his philosophy and contributions to child development and for being such an important part of Pittsburgh's history and its image as a great place to live and raise a family," said Pittsburgh Mayor Luke Ravenstahl.
"Fred Rogers was one of our region's greatest innovators, and now we have a lasting reminder of his many contributions to our region," added Allegheny County Executive Dan Onorato. "On behalf of the 1.2 million people in Allegheny County, I thank the Rogers family for sharing Fred with us for so many years as he shaped countless young lives. I also want to thank Colcom Foundation and Family Communications for their commitment to this monument and for the vision of making this a unique destination for visitors."
"This is a historic day for many of us who shared in the experience of Fred Rogers' lifelong commitment to enhancing the lives of children," said Bill Isler, president ofThe Fred Rogers Company. "We are thankful to the local tradesmen, authorities, and our team of architects for their efforts in creating a very special place. The generosity of the late Mrs. May and Colcom Foundation makes this gift to the region possible and even more special to the people from Pittsburgh and around the world who will visit this site each year."
Trade unions that worked on this 20-month project include: Operating Engineers Local 66, Bricklayers and Allied Craftworkers Local 9, Construction General Laborers Local 373, Greater Pennsylvania Regional Council of Carpenters Locals 142 and 230, Cement Masons Local 526, Iron Workers Local 3, International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 5, and Plumbers Local 27.

The old school car or classic as so many people call them today are loved and cherished by so many people, particularly because when you use them on the road or display them in your homes, they present a different outlook simply because it looks different from everything that is out on the streets. It also gives you a feel of the glory days of automotive manufacturing. With all the advantages, there are many drawbacks, some of which we need to look at here, as well as the solution.
Unavailability Of Old School Parts
For the new cars, the replacement of parts is not a big deal since all you need to do is head down to your local auto store and get one for yourself. For the old school car restoration and repairs, things might not be as simple as that since the production of these cars has ended decades ago.
To increase your chances of getting these parts, all you need to do is join a classic car club or any place where old school car parts are being auctioned to stand a chance of getting the parts you are looking for. Even for those who display these cars alone, this is important, specifically because every car is valuable only when it can start.
Highway Struggles
For classic cars from the 1960s upwards, you might not have a problem with moving on the highway, but for those driving vars from years before, you need to understand the car as well as where it can be driven.
If your classic car is far older than the era of the 1960s, the best thing for you to do is stay off the highways and search for locations and thoroughfares with low-speed limits to be safe.
Different Fuels
Many of the old cars used different fuels for the ones now, particularly the difference in octane ratings. The octane ratings in the fuels we use nowadays have lower octane ratings making them unfit for use in many of our old school cars.
You need to seek out a filing station that has a test station for specific cars. You might also need a filling station that sells fuels without ethanol because this also damages our old school cars. This might cost you more, but it would save you the stress of looking for ways to repair your old school cars.
Lack Of Knowledgeable Mechanics
Many of the mechanics we have today were trained based on the schematics of many of the new cars we have today, with only a few having the right amount of knowledge on the old models. This means that not only is it hard to get the parts but also hard to get a mechanic to fix them – what a drag. Well, we have a solution.
From the old school car clubs we highlighted earlier, you could also get good information on mechanics who can help you fix your cars and get it running in no time.
If you own an old school car, things might not be as hard as you feel it would be, with the right information such as this one, we can say you are in safe hands.

With the FOMC rate hike decision looming, gold prices have taken a hit.
Gold started the day flat, hovering around $1,863.16 after touching $1,849.90, its lowest since February 16.
"The focus of the market is very much attached to the tightening of monetary policies by the main central banks, especially the Federal Reserve," said Ricardo Evangelista, senior analyst at ActivTrades. "We've seen yields on the 10-year Treasury going above 3% and this is very penalizing for an asset that doesn't yield like gold."
Investors are anticipating a 50-point rate hike as the Fed looks for a way to reign in rampant inflation. Experts will also be paying attention to cues from SEC chairman Jerome Powell for any hints about the Fed plan going forward. Gold functions as a reliable inflation hedge; however, higher interest rates and bond yields increase the opportunity cost of holding bullion.
"The dollar remains favoured with the U.S. economy being able to withstand such aggressive tightening regardless of external factors leaving gold exposed to a lengthy drop," said DailyFX analyst Warren Venketas in a note.
Even though it is a codified popular belief that there exists a relationship between interest rates and the price of gold, the historical outlook is a lot murkier. The correlation between interest rates and the price of gold since 1970 has only been about 28%. In fact, there is some evidence suggesting that gold may benefit as an alternative investment to equities.
Some experts even make the case that gold thrives during rate hike cycles, and have data to back the claim up. During eight of the last 12 rate hike cycles, including the last four, gold averaged a spectacular 49% in gains.
Investors looking to get exposure to the yellow metal can get direct exposure through the Sprott Physical Gold Trust (PHYS). For a gold equities play, investors can look at the Sprott Gold Miners ETF (SGDM ) or the Sprott Junior Gold Miners ETF (SGDJ ).

BlackBerry AppWorld - Pictures and thoughts
So, RIM have finally released their Application Store (hereafter called AppWorld) Let's take it for a spin on a BlackBerry Bold (9000 running 220.127.116.11 for those who care about such things). All screenshots taken with the magnificent CaptureIt from The Tech Mogul.
You can grab it by pointing your 'Berry at http://blackberry.mobi/appworld.
First off, it's very good looking. A good layout showing featured apps. Underneath are links to Categories, Top Downloads, Search, and My World (where you can see what you've downloaded)
There's a fairly large selection of applications already available - not as many as iPhone, but this is a lot newer. The applications have a more professional feel. There are a few "fart" apps - but not the hundred which clog up Apple and Android.
The Top Downloads section is well arranged
Interestingly, RIM have chosen PayPal to handle the billing. This means they don't need to do deals with carriers or set up their own payment gateway. I can't help but wonder how much they will have to give away on each transaction and how many people will be turned off after suffering PayPal's lousy customer service.
A note to Apple - you don't need to sign up to PayPal in order to download free apps. Take the hint!
Again, a well arranged My World section allows a user to send in reviews for the apps.
The recommend functionality is well integrated.
If you have AppWorld installed, your 'Berry will recognise the link and attempt to open it in the AppWorld, rather than the browser.
This is where it starts to go wrong. If you try to open the link in the web browser, you don't get taken to a mobile friendly page. This is simply inexcusable.
Overall, this is a really solid offering from RIM. They've taken their time and come up with a quality product. Very interesting to note that while there are some free and sub-$9.99 applications, there are some apps ranging from $49.99 to $200. Wow. These apps are obviously targeting business users who haven't quite get their head around the credit crunch yet.
Only two things spoil the party.
1) Pricing is in USD - there doesn't seem to be an option for GBP or CAD (the AppWorld is currently only available in US, Canada and UK).
2) I made it crash
While a loading screen is running, hit the BB button, then select "Read Reviews".
The crash is nothing too serious, but it does point to a little lack of testing.
Very impressive RIM, let's see how it evolves.

Kit Kat 4 Finger Milk Chocolate Bar 41.5g
Unwrap, break off a chocolate finger, snap it in two and savour the crispy wafer biscuit covered in deliciously smooth milk chocolate. KITKAT was first launched in 1935 as 'Rowntree's Chocolate Crisp' and didn't acquire its name until two years later in 1937. The "KITKAT" name originates from the late 17th century in London, when a literary club met at a pie shop owned by pastry chef Christopher Catling. The group was called the "Kit Kat club" and took its name from an abbreviated version of the owner's name. Launched in York and still produced there today, KITKAT is a British classic.

The Carolina Panthers were one game away from one of the greatest NFL seasons of all time in 2015. However, the Denver Broncos blew them out in the Super Bowl and things have not been the same since. This is a team that has a ton of talent to work with. However, they simply have not been able to pull things together in order to succeed. Cam Newton is a great NFL quarterback, but he has started to take a lot of shots from other defenses. Not only that, but he needs to start thinking about how he can be a leader to his team. With all of the changes that are taking place going into 2017, the Carolina Panthers have to figure out a way to turn things around.
2017 NFL Draft
In the draft, the Panthers do not have a ton of holes to fill on their offense outside of the offensive line. With all of the changes that have taken place this year, the Panthers need to shore up their defense. One of their best corners left for more money to go play for the Redskins. If the Panthers can address the concerns that they have in the secondary, the defense will be much better going into the new season. In addition, the Panthers have to start thinking about ways to protect their quarterback. A lot of people today watch the games and are shocked by how much Cam Newton gets hit on a weekly basis. There is only so much damage that a quarterback can take on before he starts to feel the negative impact of those hits.
With all of the changes that have taken place in this area, he needs to start thinking about how he can better use his body over time.
New Season Outlook
The Panthers do not lack talent on their team this year. However, they do seem to lack chemistry which is just as important. If the Panthers are going to have a successful season this year, they have to start thinking about ways that they can turn things around.
A lot of fans are hoping that this past year was just some form of a glitch and that the team will be able to find their footing in the coming seasons. Cam Newton is a great quarterback who is surrounded by all of the top talent in the league, and the Panthers should be expected to perform at a high level with him at the helm.

The West Virginia Mountaineers took down the No. 15 Virginia Tech Hokies on Saturday in Morgantown. The Mountaineers jumped out to a 14-0 lead early, and it appeared we were well on the way to seeing a blowout, but slowly, Virginia Tech fought back.
Every time it seemed as if the Hokies were closing in, mistakes would haunt them. Down 24-7 at halftime, Virginia Tech's defense tightened up after halftime and allowed just three points after the break.
Now, about those mistakes. Yes, some of those mistakes were on the players, but this entire Virginia Tech team was let down by head coach Justin Fuente and the offensive coaching staff on Saturday.
Now, here are five takeaways from Virginia Tech's disappointing loss to West Virginia.
Hokies weren't ready
Virginia Tech went on the road for thhe first time in 2021 on Saturday. And, it wasn't a typical road trip. Going to Morgantown to face an old rival, you knew the crowd would be fired up. They were. And so were the Mountaineers.
After the Hokies went three-and-out on their first possession, West Virginia running back Leddie White took the ball 80 yards for a touchdown on WVU's second play from scrimmage.
After another bad offensive series, WVU got the ball back and scored again.
It looked like the Hokies were going to get blown out by their rivals. However, the grit (see what I did there) of these players slowly brought them back.
This looked like the typical stinker from a Justin Fuente-coached team we see at least once per year. But these kids rallied. When this continues to happen, it's on the head coach.
Brad Cornelsen is the worst coordinator in America
Let's not sugarcoat this. He is bad. And Fuente's blind loyalty for a coach who could bring him down is puzzling. Coaching is a cutthroat business. Sometimes, you have to make tough decisions. Fuente needed to make this one years ago.
This isn't your typical "he should fire the OC" rant. We've already done that one before, as has every other site who covers Virginia Tech. Check out this stat from the great David Teel, of the Richmond Times-Dispatch.
"Tech (2-1) snapped the ball 12 times at the Mountaineers' 10-yard line, or closer. Those plays produced no points," Teel wrote.
"But no points, 6 net yards and 0-for-5 passing on three possessions at the 10 or closer? That speaks to preparation, execution and play-calling."
College football analyst and former Atlanta Falcons star Roddy White chimed in.
That was the worst play calling on 1st and goal from the seven I have seen Vtech OC give the damn kids a chance.
— Roddy White (@roddywhiteTV) September 18, 2021
Fuente's response to the red-zone failures:
"We were pretty shoddy," Fuente said. "Inconsistent to say the least."
You think?
Cornelsen apparently only has about 12 plays on his "play sheet." Perhaps they came from Madden 95. Because when he sees an "exotic" defensive look, as center Brock Hoffman stated WVU gave the Hokies on Saturday, he folds up and calls wide-receiver screens, jet-sweeps or inside dives.
Come on.
Something must change. These kids deserve better. Cornelsen single-handedly cost Virginia Tech a winnable game on Saturday. And you don't think the players know who is to blame?
Jet Sweeps
This deserves its own mention. On one of the series inside the 10-yard line, Cornelsen used wide receiver Tre Turner on a Jet Sweep. You don't think West Virginia had that scouted? People at home from their couches who have never spent one day as a coach saw that coming.
The Jet Sweep is a nice play. It just should not be a staple in your offense. The best thing about the Jet Sweep is the motion. Some of the top offensive minds in the NFL use Jet-Sweep motion to force the defense to flow hard toward the receiver in motion. That's why you see so many teams just sending the WR in motion. He doesn't need to get the football every time. Give the ball to a WR once per game, but continue to use the motion.
Nope, not Cornelsen.
Instead of using stud tight end James Mitchell more in the passing game, Cornelsen loved using Mitchell with the Jet Sweep. A tight end like Mitchell should be eating up targets because he's a mismatch. Not here.
And the use of Turner is maddeningly frustrating. In Turner's freshman season, we all saw a star. That player is still there. He's had to deal with quarterback after quarterback, and an offensive coordinator who doesn't know how to use wide receivers outside the numbers.
Turner is a loyal kid who is all Hokie. He deserves better. I think years from now we will all look back and think "what-if" in regards to Mitchell and Turner.
Braxton Burmeister played his best game
I was proud of Braxton Burmeister on Saturday. He was under pressure the entire game. He was sacked six times. And, the aforementioned play-calling put him in a bad position all game.
Burmeister completed 19 of 31 passes for 223 yards and two touchdowns. He should have had three touchdowns. Tayvion Robinson caught the ball in the end zone but the officials ruled it incomplete. The officials should have ruled it a touchdown, then reviewed it. Hokies were screwed there.
The two did hook up for another score. Robinson is a fantastic player.
One back for Virginia Tech!
— Full 10 Yards College (@Full10YardsCFB) September 18, 2021
Tayvion Robinson with the grab#Hokies pic.twitter.com/64EykNfvD7
Burmeister took a lot of hits on Saturday. He kept getting back up. Teammates respect him for that. The pass protection is usually much better, but got worse once Silas Dzansi went down with an injury. WVU repeatedly attacked the right side once Dzansi was gone.
Vance Vice does a great job with the offensive line, so I believe things will get better there.
Back to Burmeister, he was looking downfield more in this game. That's progress. There was one play where Virginia Tech was in a 3rd-and-24 and Burmeister dodged defenders for a 25-yard gain. It was impressive.
Kudos to Justin Hamilton and the defense
Things could not have gone any worse for defensive coordinator Justin Hamilton and his defense in the first half on Saturday. The Hokies looked terrible on defense. They had given up tons of yardage and 24 points in the first half alone.
However, in the second half, things began to slowly turn. The Hokies were getting off the field, forced two turnovers and allowed just three points in the final 30 minutes. That's good coaching.
When the legendary Bud Foster was defensive coordinator and he would have a bad half, you almost always had confidence he'd figure things out as the game progressed. It's one of the reasons why he was so great.
Look, I am not comparing Hamilton to Foster, but it's clear Hamilton is a sharp dude. More than once since taking over as coordinator, he has made in-game adjustments and turned things around, giving the offense a chance to win the game. He did again on Saturday.
Kudos to Coach Hamilton and his staff.

Since the discovery of the Higgs boson – 'the God particle' back in the summer of 2012, physicists have found a whole lot of, well, nothing. The Higgs high hasn't carried through the past decade, and no groundbreaking discoveries have appeared since.
But ahead lies a whole frontier of grand unsolved mysteries, including why there's more matter than antimatter in the universe, what the true identity of dark matter and dark energy is, or how the strange, ultra-weak neutrino particles ended up so ghostly. For many, it's an exciting time, with lots of new ideas and upcoming experiments to test them.
With all of these projects, the prospect of discovery is very real. More new experiments mean a higher potential to solve some of these mysteries—or at least uncover clues. Maybe the future will require more radical thinking, or even taking on enormous experiments that might not reveal anything new. We can only hope that in the next 10 years, society will radically shift and people will value science enough to take on large experimental endeavors

Here I will present the guests and you will also find all the information about what happens in the podcast
New episodes of the podcast are posted every other Sunday, if nothing unforeseen happens!
Cogito ergo sum, "I do think, therefore I am" and it is our thoughts that rules our life.
Ellinor IsaDeRoss Eklöf, TheOakLeaf from Sweden and guests from all over the world are going share their thoughts about everything between the earth and sky as ordinary life, life changing stories, the spiritual sphere and Natural Spirit a free way of living in connection with our heart.
Life and society today is based on the fact that we need a structure which includes money, somewhere to live, food and heat which is becoming increasingly difficult for many in today's society. But in the end everything depends basically on how we think, live and act in our lives and how far we can go in the pursuit of what is material.
By highlighting different angles around events that have changed our attitudes to a greater understanding and how we have changed our thoughts our lives. Our chat will reflect the dimension and how different thoughts lead to different expressions, different ways of living and look at life. We may also talk about different tools we have used and use today for to help other.
In Natural Spirit there is a connection between the masculine and feminine power, the physical and mental, the soul and our higher self, Mother Earth, the creator and the universe, which are in balance and synchronization and creates a completeness.
In nature we have a Natural spirituality which in itself has an untouched spirituality that if it is allowed to be at peace is not affected by anything and is therefore constant and by staying in a natural spirituality it is easier to achieve that connection.
Natural spirit has no norms, follows no rules more than following the heart's signals to do to others in the way you yourself want to be treated in truth and love.
We all have different believes and we all have our own responsibility for what we are sharing in the podcast and I may not always agree with everything, but the important is to share what other want to share in love and respect for one and another.
Ellinor ends each podcast with a short drum meditation based on the energies after each chat.
With light and love Ellinor

Solar System's comet-like tail discovered by NASA
SAN ANTONIO, Texas

Astronomers have gotten the first-ever peek at our solar system's tail, called the heliotail, finding that it's shaped like a four-leaf clover, NASA scientists announced July 10. The discovery was made using NASA's Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX), a coffee table-sized spacecraft that is studying the edge of the solar system, space.com has reported."Many models have suggested the heliotail might look like this or like that, but we have had no observations," David McComas, IBEX principal investigator at Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio, Tex., said in a statement. "We always drew pictures where the tail of the solar system just trailed off the page, since we couldn't even speculate about what it really looked like."
Larger than predictions
The tail drags behind the bullet-shaped heliosphere, or the bubble surrounding our solar system that's created by the solar wind and solar magnetic field. Our heliotail is "a much larger structure with a much more interesting configuration" than scientists had previously predicted, McComas added during a news conference announcing the finding.
Researchers say the comet-like tail is inflated by the solar wind of particles streaming off the sun, and the four-leaf clover shape is the result of fast solar wind shooting out near the sun's poles and slower wind flowing from near the sun's equator. The finding is based on the first three years of IBEX's measurements of energetic neutral atoms.
The lobes of the clover shape do not line up with the solar system perfectly, the scientists found. A slightly rotated shape hints that the particles in the tail are tugged by the magnetic fields from the local galaxy as they move further away from the sun.
