There's no easy answer to the Josh Hader home-run dilemma other than making better pitches
Pitchers, just like hitters, go into slumps where they can't locate pitches. When you're the bullpen closer, it's more than likely going to cost your team the game.
Brewers closer Josh Hader is in a slump right now. In particular, he's having trouble keeping the ball in the park.
On Tuesday night at Miller Park, with a standing-room only crowd of 44,331 buzzing about the three-run homer that Yasmani Grandal hit in the seventh to give the Brewers a 5-4 lead, the life went out of the place when yet another hitter took Hader deep. On the first pitch he threw, Hader surrendered a three-run homer to Marwin Gonzalez with two down in the eighth, a drive that propelled Minnesota to a 7-5 interleague victory.
This, unfortunately for Hader and the Brewers, has become a trend. It was the fourth time in six appearances he had been taken deep, and the sixth time in 12 2/3 innings since the all-star break.
BOX SCORE: Twins 7, Brewers 5
Overall, Hader has allowed 13 home runs in 52 2/3 innings, compared to a total of 13 over 129 innings in his first two seasons in the major leagues. Twelve of those 13 homers have come on fastballs, which shouldn't be too surprising with Hader throwing that pitch a career-high 87% of the time.
It's obvious that hitters are sitting solely on Hader's fastball, not even worried that he might throw them a slider. Five of his home runs have come on first-pitch fastballs, a sign that hitters are digging in and looking to ambush him from the outset.
Despite that unmistakable pattern, Hader keeps throwing first-pitch fastballs and says he will continue to do so, needing only to locate them better.
"It's a pitch I've always used," he said. "It's my strength. Honestly, it comes down to executing it. If I throw that pitch where I need it to be, up and in, he pops it up. Then, maybe it's a different story. It comes down to executing, being consistent and making my pitches."
For whatever reason, Hader badly missed with his first pitch to Gonzalez. Instead of up and in, the 96-mph fastball was down and mostly over the middle, and Gonzalez drove it out to left-center for his 14th home run of the season.
RELATED: Zach Davies expected to come off IL and rejoin rotation in St. Louis
Asked about continuing to be beaten in that fashion, Hader said, "It's been the same thing. It's been the long ball. It's one of those stretches. As a baseball player, we all go through slumps. Right now, it's not locating pitches.
"I was trying to go up. I obviously missed down and over the middle, pretty much. I'm not letting them fly up. I'm getting on top of them and it's going down in the (strike) zone.
"It's been tough losing games, obviously, in situations where we need them. It's something you've got to keep doing. You've got to repeat, repeat, repeat. That's why this game is so hard. You've got to repeat; you've got to be consistent. Right now, I'm struggling to be consistent."
Hader threw 44 pitches in his previous outing Friday night against Texas, a season high, then was given three days off before being used again. He said he "felt fine" but it obviously is not working nearly as often as it once did to try to get more than three outs from Hader.
It was a somewhat curious move to summon Hader with two on and two outs in the eighth to face Gonzalez, a switch-hitter who has swung the bat better from the right side (.289 batting average, .464 slugging) than the left side (.239, .384) this season. Matt Albers had just come on to strike out right-handed hitting C.J. Cron and has been on a roll lately but Counsell yanked him in favor of Hader.
Asked what he liked about having Gonzalez bat right-handed, Counsell simply said, "I like Josh Hader in the game."
It's certainly understandable why Counsell likes to call on Hader. He remains the most-feared strikeout reliever in the game (16.59 per nine innings), had limited opponents to a .150 batting average and converted 25 of 29 save opportunities. The Brewers were 36-7 when he pitched, so what's not to like?
But this home-run thing has become a real problem. If you can't keep the ball in the park, you're going to have trouble closing games.
"Location, for anybody, getting ahead (in the count) is a recipe that every pitcher needs to follow," Counsell said. "Josh's fastball has been very effective. Sometimes, the first-pitch swing is helpful to get you through innings.
"As great as Josh is, he still has to locate the fastball. Right now, he's getting hurt on his mistakes."
Hader obviously is the reliever Counsell trusts most to close games, when rested sufficiently to be summoned. And he often is asked to get more than three outs, which gives hitters more chances to ambush his fastball. It is double jeopardy for the Brewers when they lose games in which Hader pitches because he often isn't available for the next day or two.
So, there's no easy answer to this dilemma. Hader remains the Brewers' best choice to protect late leads. But he's surrendering far too many home runs on his fastball.
"What it comes down to is execution," Hader said. "If you're not executing, these guys are going to do damage to the ball. You can't dwell on what's happened. That's how you get down and in more of a slump."

Looking for a super fast and easy weeknight dinner? Then look no further than this honey-soy salmon. It's done in just 20 minutes! And I have to tell ya… the flavors are spectacular. I love to serve it over rice with the vegetables, then put whatever is left into a container. Yup, just a container filled with rice, salmon, and vegetables. Let the salmon break apart into pieces, and you have an easy meal to heat up later in the week. Just toss it in a pan on the stove to heat up and you have a sort of salmon and vegetable fried rice. YUM!
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 cup soy sauce
1 cup honey
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 lb. skin-on salmon fillet
8 ounces white mushrooms, sliced
1 red bell pepper sliced
1 bunch green onions, sliced into circles
toasted sesame seeds, to garnish
3 cups cooked rice, if desired
DoveWare Casserole Dish
4-6 servings
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
1. Preheat your oven to 450° Fahrenheit.
2. In a medium bowl, stir together the vinegar, sesame oil, soy sauce, honey, chili powder, and mustard. Set aside ½ cup of the sauce for serving.
3. Line the casserole dish with parchment paper. Place the salmon, skin side down, in the casserole dish. Brush it with about 2 tablespoons of the honey sauce.
4. Bake for 6 minutes. While baking, toss the mushrooms, bell pepper, and green onions with the rest of the sauce.
5. After the salmon has baked for 6 minutes, remove it from the oven and scatter the vegetables around it. Brush the salmon with more of the sauce, then pour the rest into the casserole dish with the salmon and veggies (except for the ½ cup set aside for serving).
6. Return the casserole dish to the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes until the vegetables are just tender.
7. When done, lift the fish from the skin. Serve with vegetables, rice if desired, and reserved sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Synopsis by Janiss Garza
When wealthy Rockwood dies, he wills his fortune to his four grown children, providing they're all married by a certain date. Failing that, the money will go to charity. Three of the Rockwood siblings are quick to find matches but Tom Rockwood (Thomas Meighan) is determined to wait for true love. At last he finds it with Louise Halliday (Lila Lee), but her guardian is Milo Bleech (John Sainpolis) who is the family lawyer. Bleech would benefit if the fortune went to charity, so he tries to sabotage the relationship. He is nearly successful, and Tom leaves for Europe. Also on the boat is the unhappy English sweetheart of his brother Dick (Robert Agnew). Louise is there to see the girl off, but isn't able to disembark before the ship leaves port. She and Tom meet up and straighten out their differences. Then, when Dick is discovered on board as a stowaway, a double wedding is in order. Meanwhile, the sisters back home quickly marry their beaus and the fortune remains in the family.

Senior Research Fellow, University College Cork
Ian Hughes is trained in psychoanalysis. In the area of political science, he co-authored a study on the effectiveness of democracy in Ireland. He graduated with a PhD in atomic physics from Queen's University in Belfast, and worked in some of the top research laboratories in Europe and the United States. These included JET, the nuclear fusion research facility, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory in the United States.
In his 2018 book Disordered Minds: How Dangerous Personalities are Destroying Democracy, he brought together his experience in science, psychology and political science to demonstrate that a small proportion of people with dangerous personality disorders are responsible for most of the violence and greed that scars our world. The book explored how demonstrably dangerous individuals, namely psychopaths and those with narcissistic and paranoid personality disorders, can so easily gain power, attract widespread followings and lead societies towards calamity. He is also contributing author to the 2019 book "The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 37 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President."
He is also a Senior Research Fellow at the Marine and Renewable Energy Ireland (MaREI) Centre, Environmental Research Institute, University College Cork. His work at MaREI is aimed at helping to establish a common understanding among decision-makers across government of the challenges and opportunities associated with system transitions for sustainability and the policy responses which can enable the system changes needed to address climate change.

Shaunice Wall is NCL's Linda Golodner Food Safety and Nutrition Fellow
An estimated 40 percent of food goes uneaten in the United States. Between 2007 and 2014, American consumers wasted nearly 150,000 tons of food per day. Yet, 40 million Americans struggle with hunger, including 12 million children.
The Bible is replete with calls for it, our glut of food in America calls for it, and yet few of us do it. I'm not talking about praying! I'm referring to the term "gleaning." NCL has an active campaign to reduce food waste, since Americans toss out 40 percent of the food we produce. That takes a huge toll on our farmers—who work so hard to grow our crops—and on the environment, when wasted food stuffs landfills, and it leaves the 60 million food-insecure families in America behind, when we could be feeding millions more.
It's been nearly a year since the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced a national goal to cut U.S food waste in half by 2030. Since then, we have seen leaders from across the food supply chain, as well as non-profit, industry and government sectors, make impressive progress towards achieving this goal. NCL has been working hard to identify strategies for consumers who want to be part of this national movement. So, NCL is pleased that the United States Conference of Mayors recently committed to a set of resolutions that will strengthen food waste reduction plans within municipalities.
I spend a lot of time thinking about food waste and it's lasting effects on our environment and our communities. While this may be a natural outcome of working on these issues for NCL, I don't think it will be long before the average consumer also has this topic on the brain on a daily basis.

Jul 9, 2013. Known as the "plant doctor" as a child, scientist and inventor George Washington Carver was also called the "grandfather of peanuts" and was.
There, stood George Washington Carver High School. "We didn't have instructors at Carver. We had teachers," Tyer said. "There were more like parents; mothers and fathers. It wasn't just a job to.
George Washington Carver was born into slavery January of 1860 on the Moses Carver plantation in Diamond Grove, Missouri. He spent the first year of his life, the brutal days of border war, between Missouri and neighboring Kansas.
George Washington. his parents, and was raised by the white couple who had owned his mother. He struggled to gain an education, eventually enrolling at Iowa State College where he received a degree.
The arrest, which comes two years after a shooting at Perry Hall High School, shocked parents and students at the George Washington Carver Center for the Arts and Technology, a school known for its.

As you search for apartments in the area you plan to buy in, you may be wondering what you can do to get the best possible rate. What steps can you take to avoid overpaying? In most areas, there are a few simple things to do that can reduce what you have to pay and still allow you to get into a building that offers the features and amenities you want. It is important to consider your individual needs and to pursue only locations that have the features you desire. But, even then, there are ways you can cut the costs.
Know the Area
The area you pick to look at Apartments for sale in Javea is a big component of what you will pay. The closer you are to the main thoroughfares, the office buildings, or the downtown area, the more you will pay in most cities. However, you also have to factor in the drive time you want to have if you are working in the heart of the city. It's less expensive to be a few miles away, though, in most cases. This could also mean more room and better features if you live in the suburbs rather than in the heart of the city.
Ask about the Lease
There may be a few options for you to consider when it comes to the apartment lease. If you want to cut down on the costs, ask to pay your entire year's rent upfront (only do this, of course, if you know that it is a place you want to live in.) Ask for a discount for doing this. Some companies may even give you a month off. You may want to do some negotiating, too. For example, ask for the company to pay for the utilities rather than you paying them out of your pocket.
Go No Amenities
If you do not want to overpay and you want the lowest possible price, one of the best ways to do this is through a basic unit. Though many people are looking for apartments that have it all, from the fitness room to the onsite laundry, if you want the lowest possible price, cut these out. Look for a basic building with limited amenities. Then, ask for a good deal as a result of these limited features.

School administrators--Attitudes; Teacher-administrator relationships; Student-administrator relationships;
A principal as an instructional leader perceivably means providing the necessary knowledge so that the school's academic goals can be met. Information is a key factor in education leadership. Possessing expert knowledge and skill in curriculum so that teachers perceive that their interaction with the principal leads directly to the classroom practice. Communication skills in one-on-one, small group, large group, settings move the staff forward in creating a vision that is visible and real so that curriculum goals can be attained for the welfare of all students (Smith & Andrews, 1989). This reflective paper discusses a variety of issues facing educational leadership and provides insight on vision of effective performance in an administrative role.

Gov. Brad Henry's controversial plan to create a state-funded pre-kindergarten program for three-year-olds is dead for the next two years following a tie vote in the Oklahoma Senate Appropriations Committee.
The bill, SB 518, died on an 8 to 8 vote Wednesday. Under the Senate's new power-sharing agreement, a bill receiving a tie vote on "final action" in a committee is dead for the next two years.
Senate Co-President Pro Tempore Glenn Coffee said the bill's defeat does not signal the end of bipartisanship in the evenly divided Senate. It is just an example of a policy difference between the two parties on a specific proposal.
"I am proud of the eight members of the Appropriations Committee who took this brave stand and said our state should not commit to this expansion of government at a time when we are facing a tight budget," stated Coffee, R-Oklahoma City. "But Senate Republicans continue to look forward to working with Gov. Henry on areas where we can find common ground, like fixing the Teacher Retirement System."
Coffee said there is also significant division among early childhood education advocates about whether Henry's plan is an effective one.
Democrats obviously had different views on the defeat of the bill.
Governor Henry said The vote amounted to "pure politics". "Republicans caucused right before this bill, whipped everybody into shape and came back and voted lockstep against the bill."
Treasurer Scott Meacham said that scientific research on the benefits of enhancing brain development during the early childhood years is unanimous. "Most development occurs before age 3, then slows by age 5, Meacham said. "Making an investment during the formative years can pay big dividends on down the road, when students are learning academic skills," he said.
"I would urge you to put aside your partisan rhetoric," said Sen. Susan Paddack, D-Ada, the bill's author.
ODP Chair Lisa Pryor wrote in her morning rant" this morning:
"Yesterday all eight GOP members of the Senate Appropriations Committee voted against Oklahoma's families and three-year olds."
We love bi-partisanship.
OKLAHOMA City (AP) A bill to expand the number of Oklahoma children that qualify for Medicaid benefits passes the Senate Rules Committee today.

For many years, microbiology in the brewery has suffered a bad press. Of its many perceived failings, Quain (1999) focused on its slowness and the equivocal nature of microbiological results. The former consideration is the most damning. Methods that require between three and seven days to deliver a result can offer little to monitoring and process control. Such a lack of real time delivery has undermined the importance of microbiology and reduced it to a 'comfort' analysis that is tracked via charts of compressed and averaged data. The second point ('What do the results mean?') has triggered countless furrowed brows and sleepless nights. Microbiologists - who are frequently seen as bringers of bad tidings - are left to explain to harassed team leaders or departmental managers that they are unable to predict the significance of the (bad!)
results they bring. This is invariably exacerbated by the 'historical' nature of the results ('The beer has gone to trade.') and the uncertainty around the details of the result ('Is it a beer spoiler? 'Is there enough to spoil?'). If this is not enough, lurking beneath such a debate are concerns about the general robustness of brewing microbiology. In particular, the 'quality' of the sample and, particularly, just how representative it is of the vessel it was taken from. For those with the 'knowledge' (often ex-microbiologists), further uncertainty can be introduced by questioning the ability of the media to support the exclusive growth of 'beer spoilers'. Failing these arguments, there is always the indefensible review of the occasions when routine testing failed to flag a spoilage problem and, conversely, the time when the results anticipated a problem which failed to materialise!
Ironically, despite the above pessimism, brewing microbiology has been re-energised through the enhanced profile and importance of 'hygiene' (see Section 8.2.1) together with spin-off developments from the wider food industry. This later point reflects the high-profile food scares that have triggered public concern about micro-organisms in general and pathogens in particular! Consequently, there has been an explosion of interest and funding of initiatives to validate cleaning in real time, and to improve sampling, testing and identification. These have all to a lesser or greater extent had a positive impact on brewing microbiology.
The approach to routine microbiological sampling and testing has fundamentally changed in recent years. Although, unlike analytical testing, still very much the responsibility of 'specialists', the focus of microbiology has changed fundamentally from 'blanket' coverage of the process to more specialised, targeted testing. This recognises the industry-wide reduction in resources and the need to focus testing in the most appropriate areas.
126.96.36.199 Inspection (QC) versus prevention (QA). The most fundamental change in philosophy has been the move from 'control' to 'assurance'. Accordingly, many breweries have evolved their quality control departments (QC) into quality assurance (QA) departments. This is much more than a fashionable, cosmetic change but a change in emphasis from 'inspection' to 'prevention'. Driven by the implementation of 'systems' (HACCP, ISO 9000), microbiological sampling and testing is now focused on the process rather than the product. The basic premise is that microbiological effort should be directed at the 'critical control points' of the process which together determine product quality.
184.108.40.206 Sampling plans and specifications. Sampling plans and the associated specifications make brewing microbiology happen! Typically, a sampling plan will be highly prescriptive and detail the inevitable (sample, frequency) as well the method and sample volume. The size of the sample is important and, crucially is often too small to realistically achieve occasional counts of micro-organisms. It is all too easy to be deluded into believing that a CCP is in control because of routine zero counts. Accordingly, the sample volume should be stretched so that microbial counts are occasionally observed. This confirms that the sample 'window' is appropriate and gives the assurance that changes in performance can be tracked. Further, it facilitates useful comparison, or benchmarking, of performance against other breweries. Sampling plans and specifications require periodic, at least annual, review to ensure they remain appropriate, focused and responsive to improvement initiatives.
Given the inevitable historical nature of the results, the 'specifications' are invariably a 'target' and, unlike measurements of colour, ABV or C02 etc., have little authority or impact on the process. Results are tracked to varying degrees of statistical sophistication and regularly reviewed, thereby enabling changes in performance to be readily identified and responded to.
Despite the importance of microbiological sampling plans and specifications, surprisingly little has been published. In a relatively short report for such a big subject, Avis (1990) described the application of HACCP to microbiological process control. Usefully he described CCPs and associated principal sample points (PSPs) which are used to monitor the process. This paper concluded with an example of the then sampling plan for a keg line (see Table 8.15). More recently, Alan Kennedy (Anonymous, 1999) described the minimum sampling plan used by the Scottish Courage Group. (In passing, sampling plans are invariably described as being the 'minimum', a rider that is often forgotten in the translation into practical reality!) Returning to 'specifications', Kennedy usefully described the use of red/amber/green descriptors to 'weight' microbiological results according to micro-organism and process location. In another example, Ichikawa and Takinami (1992) described their sampling plan to meet the more exacting demands of sterile filtration and aseptic packaging.
8.3.2 Methods - 'traditional'
Despite the very real developments in 'rapid' methods (see Section 8.3.3), traditional methods continue to be used for the vast bulk of microbiological activities in breweries large and small. These methods have remained relatively unchanged since the days of Louis Pasteur (Ogden, 1993). Typically, these methods revolve around the 'plating out' of a sample, either directly (or after centrifugation) as 'spread plates' (<0.2 ml), 'pour' plates (5 ml) or after membrane filtration (<500 ml). These approaches differ fundamentally. With the spread plate and membrane filtration approaches, the micro-organisms grow on the surface of the media. With the pour plate technique the sample is added directly to the hot molten media, this then cools and solidifies. Accordingly, the micro-organisms are distributed throughout the media which, together with concerns about the effects of heat shock, has led many microbiologists to stop using pour plates. Irrespective of the approach, after three to seven days' incubation at typically 27°C any microbial colonies that are present are counted and, where deemed necessary, identified. Identification is often 'intuitive' from the selective nature of the media or limited to microscopic examination as 'bacterial rods or cocci' or 'yeast'. More detailed traditional analysis includes the Gram test and catalase test (Section 8.1.2) for bacteria and, as a last resort, diagnostic strip tests (e.g. API, Biolog etc.) for yeast (Section 18.104.22.168) and bacteria (Section 8.1.2).

a keg line (after Avis, 1990).

Girl's Day Out! ...and other random thoughts
A few weekends ago, the Court ladies got together to celebrate Sabrina's birthday in style, starting with brunch at Breadwinners followed by seeing The Chorus Line at Fair Park. Mrs. Carmen spent Saturday night at the house with us, and Jessica Newell came along with us too. Since Reece is becoming a big girl now, we brought her along as well. It was a wonderful Sunday afternoon. I loved seeing Reece watch the dancing with her big eyes open wide. There was one part where the dialogue was lengthy and she got a little sleepy, but other than that she did great. I've never seen her awake and quiet for so long. At one point, I asked if she liked the show, and she put her finger over her lips and nodded her head. Too cute. When the show was over, the first thing she said was that she wanted to see more. I'm glad she enjoyed it, and I'm thrilled we had an afternoon with just the girls. It was the first time we've been able to do something like this, and I sure hope we don't wait as long till the next time.
And while I'm on the topic of Sabrina, I want to let everyone know she found a new job that she accepted and will start next week. She's getting a laptop, a blackberry, has the flexibility to work out of the house... it seems like a great opportunity for her. It's a sales position, although I'm hesitant to blog about it and misrepresent her product. You'll have to ask her yourself! We're really excited about the change though, cause Brina will now have her weekends to herself. I grew up with Sunday as a family day, being spent with aunts, uncles, and cousins at my Maw Maw's house in the evenings. I enjoyed that, and hope to have an opportunity to get together with Layne's family more often now that Brina and Scott will be able to join us. I love their company... but let's be real, Sunday dinner's would be pretty awesome too. :)
For those of you who have been wondering how my exploits in the kitchen are going... believe it or not, it could be worse. I've only ended up in tears once, and I think I can bake chicken pretty well now. Soups are my specialty. (Kitchen 101... what did you expect?) Some of my family is headed to Dallas for Labor Day weekend this year (Uncle Paul D and Aunt Cindy, Meg, Paul, my Mom and Dad, Abby... maybe Aunt Ellie and Jeff), and I'm looking forward to cooking a meal at the house for them. I'm practicing, and I think I would make my Granny proud- at least for the effort.
And finally- I want to shout out to my Paw Paw, my dad's dad. Yesterday would have been his 88th birthday. He's been gone from this world for a few years now, and while the pain isn't as fresh as the loss of Granny and Grandpa, you never stop missing loved ones. My grandpa was larger than life- literally and figuratively. Our big mouths... just like him. Our ability to share our passion... learned from him. Family is the priority... taught by him. My dad's parents were simple people, they didn't have money, they weren't social butterflies like my Granny was. They valued family, they valued education, they valued Holy Cross. I know he is looking down at our family and how we have grown and it would bring a smile to his face. He has 12 grandchildren, 16 great-grandchildren... and the youngest 5 grandchildren don't have kids yet. He would be proud of what he and Maw-Maw have created. And that knowledge alone makes yesterday a beautiful day.

Fantasy Football Is Finally Here!
The year has started. The first email was received. It's time to pull your sleeves up and get to work.... cause the only thing worse than losing is getting taunted about it before your first cup of coffee on Monday morning. Haven't heard from your commish yet? I thought you might enjoy the note below:
Fellow Fantasy Football Folks,
With the Hall of Fame Game less than two weeks away, it's officially that time of the year for your regrets from last year's disappointing finish to transform into hopes for a more successful season this year. Everyone's records are the same, we've all got equal odds at the #1 draft pick, and even Lester and Hickey have yet to make an unbelievably questionable move so far this year. Last year's champ is no longer among us, so unfortunately that leaves Bill Arnold in his rightful place as de facto Last Year's Champ – those years of carrying a headset around a college football sideline finally paid off for him.
We all know the drill, spend every day between now and the draft trying to come up with your cleverest team name (bonus points to anybody who can beat the ingenuity that spawned Todd's team name last year, "Triplett"), finally have a legitimate excuse to read days worth of fantasy football articles, come up with your best sleeper pick, and, for the third year in a row, watch The Little Giants improbably draft Brett Favre in the 4th round (even if he still hasn't made a decision about un-retiring yet). As always, use this as an excuse to ridicule your coworkers, fleece anyone you can, and cherish the look on an owner's face when they find out that Andy acquired their starting QB in the other league, which invariably led to a prolonged stint on the DL (seriously Andy, maybe you can use that power for good somehow this year).
Just to give the new folks an idea of what we are playing for: Besides yearlong bragging rights and the opportunity to completely ridicule your peers for some, from what I have seen, of the most ridiculous personnel moves ever, last year's buy-in was $50. By the end of the season, teams had spent between $60.00 and $147.32 (The commissioner won the frivolous spending title for the 2nd year in a row – and I am willing to take on all challengers again this year). The top team ended up winning $735, 2nd place won $441 and 3rd and 4th won $196 each.
Here's to another great year! (And Monica- here's a shout out to the only girl I know who gets as excited about fantasy football as I do. I can't wait to see how you do in your league this year, and am so excited that you'll be passing along your passion for the game to your beautiful baby girl!)

Wild Wild West...
The work portion of the trip was great, and was definitely worth the time. There are so many tools, so many different types of equipment in the oilfield... it's a challenge to really stay on top of them and their best practices. Although I've run several of the tools, it was great to be able to take the time to refresh my memory... and it didn't hurt to have some skilled hands with us who were able to answer our questions.
Pros: Great BBQ at KD's, awesome live bands at The Shack in the Back and The Ranch, a night long shuffleboard tournament, and lots of laughs with my co-workers. I really enjoy the people that I work with, and that's a big plus.
Cons: I was the DD and ended up shuttling people home from the bars in shifts, and I didn't get much sleep. I am terrible when I don't get the sleep I need. Watch out Layne... here's the warning. And oh yeah- we were supposed to go catch a Rockhounds game, the Oakland A's AA baseball team, but it got cancelled.
I'm tired, glad to be home, and can't wait to see Stephen who is up here for the weekend. I don't have a car at the office... but as soon as I can catch a ride, it's nap time! Hope everyone has a great weekend!

The Only Thing Better than the Morning Cup of Coffee: DandyDon.com
Today I want to make a little plug-in for my favorite sports website that I follow daily, year round. For those of you who love LSU and aren't familiar with it, it's the best way to start your day if you're one of those who is at a computer doing the 9am-5pm... or whatever your extended hours may be. It's www.dandydon.com . Dandy Don is definitely in the know regarding LSU sports. He attends practices, and has contacts both in the athletic department and the recruiting scene. His insider knowledge is invaluable, and I love his daily updates, especially during the college sports dry spell known as summer time.
This week, he posted some interesting stats showing once again that Louisiana is the place to be for college football. As I'm sure you know, Louisiana, Texas, Florida, Georgia, Ohio, and California contribute the most Division 1-A college football prospects. In the 2009 recruiting class, Texas led with 394 players signing D1-A scholarships. Florida had 346, California had 295, Georgia had 195, Ohio had 159, and Louisiana had 96.
But in an effort to show the world why Louisiana is better than the rest, it's important to qualify those states and look at the number of signees when you take into account the population of the state... Mwah ha ha! (Can you hear my evil laugh?!?)
1.) Louisiana: 4,410,796/96= 1 in every 45,945 people
2.) Florida: 18,328,340/346= 1 in every 52,972 people
3.) Georgia: 9,685,744/195= 1 in every 58,701 people
4.) Texas: 24,326,974/394= 1 in every 61,734 people
5.) Ohio: 11,485,910/159= 1 in every 72,238 people
6.) California: 36,756,666/295= 1 in every 124,598 people
When you wonder what it is that makes the SEC the most dominant conference in the county, it's easy to understand when you see that the top three states producing D1-A scholarship players are in the SEC. And we all know LSU has a lock on the I-10 corridor heading into Texas, which just adds to our good fortune.
LSU has restored our program to national prominence, and it's hard to see it going anywhere when you look at statistics like this.
In closing, I received a "tweet" from Les Miles yesterday informing me that LSU is changing their jerseys. We are adding "LSU" to the front of the 2009 jerseys for both purple and white uniforms. The "LSU" is 2-1/8" wide and 3/8" tall and will be located just below the neckline and right about the player's number. We're going to be trendsetters, because this is the first time in the history of college football that a school's name will appear on the front of the jersey. I can't wait till the rest of the NCAA follows our lead and copies. You know they will.
Only 58 days till kickoff! AND... Southwest Airlines flies into Seattle, which is where LSU will be opening up the 2009 season. I've got free flights. My husband won't be able to join me because of work commitments (crunch time for his Ursaline Academy project), so I'm looking for someone to travel with me. Let me know if you're interested!

A Special Day, A Special Family
My heart goes out to Aunt Leslie, Uncle Scott, Christina, Brian, Amy, David and Mark at this time of year. I've learned that loss and grieving is a process that never truly ends. As time goes on, it takes on different shapes and effects us in different ways, but it is always there.
Michael is the same age as Layne. They are only two weeks apart, and I often think about the fact that they would have gotten along so well. They both share a passion for music... Layne loves Michael's friends. He's in Manhattan having dinner with Christina tonight, and I find great comfort in that.
I don't know what the Armstrong's find comfort in, but I do know that they have all been an inspiration to me. They have helped me to look inside of myself and find courage and strength when I've needed it, they've shown me that love can help to mend pain. They've shown me that while life isn't easy, it is always worth fighting for. And because of our loss, I've learned to value and appreciate life for everything each day can bring.
So when my heart is heavy, because I miss Michael, and I hurt for my family and oldest friend, I'm going to think of the good memories that bring a smile to my face. I'll never forget the countless hours watching Michael play original Nintendo, and when he took the time to teach me to play my first video game. (I tried to succeed at Zelda. I ended up being much better at Concentration.) I'll never forget when he babysat all the Orkus' and Armstrongs, and scared the sh*t out of me chanting "Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary" in the bathroom with the door locked and the lights off. I'll remember when Amy and I snuck into his room and read the notes his high school girlfriend Kendra wrote him, with dolphins doodled all over the margins, and the first time I saw him perform with the Golden Band from Tigerland.
Michael will always be missed... and I know he will always be remembered. And tomorrow, when I wake up, I will remind myself that life is good. Not because life is easy, but because we will always have each other. And at the end of the day, that's really what life is all about.

I'll post more about our AMAZING weekend later, but I couldn't resist telling you about what we saw in Mexico City. (We had a layover there on our way to the airport in Cancun.)
Did you know that there is a company, Irisys, who makes an infrared device that can detect fever? So anyone who has a body temperature higher than 38deg C (We were in Mexico, Fahrenheit is for us Americans) sets off an alarm indicating that they may have a fever! It was amazing. As we passed through immigration, there was a camera that took a heat measurement and a body temperature, allowing the airport to scan the masses effectively. Mexico City is now the largest city in the world (so we were told) with 35 million people. I gotta admit, I was impressed, and felt entirely safe about our great adventure into the middle of the Swine Flu madness. I know I'm a dork, but you just have to love the luxuries technology affords us all.

|RE: Trinidad replaces ADF Faces?
|Thu, 12 Oct 2006 18:07:41 GMT
>From my experience I think that's exactly the case. That was my conclusion. I first tried ADF Faces and I had problems to install it to work with NetBeans. Actually I discovered a serious bug that prevents ADF Faces v10 from installing with NetBeans v5.5 correctly. It took me a long time until I figured it out, 'cos I did not get any kind of technical support from their discussion list. Nobody knew anything why I was having difficulty installing it with NetBeans. That was very frustrating, so I dont blame if even Oracle people itself are switching to Trinidad. Basically my above mentioned problems resulted in me trying Trinidad as an alternative and once I got my hands on it I was quite happy to have found it. I personally dont see any reason to use ADF Faces over Trinidad. Trinidad is much, much better supported + it has a brigther future as a project I believe. -----Original Message----- From: Brian Smith [mailto:firstname.lastname@example.com] Sent: Thu 10/12/2006 1:08 PM To: email@example.com Subject: Trinidad replaces ADF Faces? Will Trinidad replace the ADF Faces component set? I have heard that Oracle is using Trinidad builds heavily internally. Is the plan to desupport ADF Faces components once Trinidad makes it through incubation? Is there plans to support Trinidad (visual designer and such) in an upcoming release of JDeveloper? Thanks for any light shed. -Brian

I tend to see people working really hard in the gym but yet they seem to get no results. Such as a lot of people who are skinny and want to gain more size, or people who want bigger legs or arms.They train the muscle but still no growth. If you are incorporating progressive overload and getting adequate rest then the main reason for this is you diet.
In an earlier article I posted the topic about how to lose fat. I talked about calorie intake and how it is essential for weight gain or weight loss.I will discuss how this same calorie intake is responsible for muscle growth as well as getting you stronger.
Food is basically energy. We obtain our energy from food ofcourse. Without food life would cease to exist. It's like how important gas is for a car.Without the gas the car would not be able to move. Same thing with us.
The energy in food is measured in something called calories.Calories is the amount of energy in food. So let's take for example a carrot that consists of 100 calories compared to a piece of chicken that is 200 calories. The chicken is higher in calories. Therefore, it possesses more energy.
Now you body burns a certain amount of calories for the day. This is because you body requires energy to move. So as we move we burn energy or calories to do what activity we are required to do. Similar to the car and the gas. The car burns gas to move from one destination to another.
So at the end of the day you body burns a certain amount of daily calories and you consume a certain number of daily calories. In order to bulk up and put on size and muscle, you need to surpass you amount of daily calories burned.
Let's say you burned 2500 calories today that means the body required 2500 calories of food to fuel it for its daily activities.That means if you consume 2500 calories then you are just providing the body with the amount of calories that it is using up right away. So you will neither grow or lose anything.
If,for example, you consumed 2200 calories and you burned 2500 calories then you will lose fat and some muscle. This is because the body requires 2500 calories of food to fuel it and you only consumed 2200 calories. Therefore, it has to get energy from somewhere else. And in this case it is fat and muscle.
But if you consumed 3000 calories and you burned 2500 calories then you are providing the body with extra energy and with this extra energy, the body can use it to grow. This will allow you to get bigger in size and also stronger. It is possible to get stronger in a caloric deficit but you can risk fatiguing you body since it is not getting enough energy.
When bulking it is important to note that you may see that some fat may come along with the muscle and you must know that it is natural. It is okay to see an increase in body fat when bulking.
This is because, for example,if the body only needs 2500 calories of food and you consumed 3000 calories then the body has no current use for this excess energy and this energy will be stored in you body. But when bulking this extra energy is required to help the body grow.
So if you have been training really hard in the gym and you struggle to see any results muscle or strength wise you may need to increase you calorie intake.
I say increase you calories to about 200-500 calories over the number of calories you burned for the day.If you go over the 500 calorie mark you will gain body fat too quickly and this may not be good for you liking.
If you exceed the 500 calorie mark by a little that is okay but try not to carry it as high as 800 calories or even 1000 calories.But try to be in an excess of 200 calories for the very least.
With this calorie surplus of 200-500 calories you will gain size in a steady way and you will not gain an excess of fat too quickly.
I tend to bulk for about 3- 4 months and then after I would try to shred back down using a caloric deficit to have a more leaner and muscular look. I discussed the caloric deficit in a previous article. It was entitled ' Can I eat and still lose fat?'
To calculate the number of calories you want to consume in order to bulk up you should multiply you body weight in (lbs) by 16-18
On a day you are not as active multiply you body weight in lbs by 16, so for example I weigh 180 lbs , so (180 x 16=2880 calories)
On a day you are semi active you can multiply you bodyweight by 17, for example ( 180 x17)
On a day you are very active you can multiply you bodyweight by 18, for example (180 x 18)
In order to bulk you would want to stay in a constant caloric surplus every day. If you don't you weight will be constantly fluctuating. If you miss a day or two in between where you are not in a calorie surplus it is okay but try you best to stay as consistent as you can.
– CONSUME CARBOHYDRATES – I know to most people carbs seems like a bad thing because people often confuse the term that " Carbs make you fat".
From reading my content about calorie consumption we understand that this is not true. The importance of carbohydrates when bulking is that carbohydrates help water to be drawn into you muscles causing you muscles to 'swell' making you look bigger, so you muscles look bigger although it may feel a little on the softer side.
When consuming carbohydrates the body converts it to glycogen. This glycogen gets stored in the muscle as well as liver. A muscle tissue consists of cells ofcourse which use glucose for energy. This glycogen will be converted to glucose for energy for the cells of the muscle when the muscles is being worked. Part of the structure of glycogen consists of water so basically water is part of glycogen.
This is why carbohydrates help water to be drawn in the muscle when bulking giving you a bigger look. If you notice that yesterday, for example, you muscles looked a little bit bigger than today it doesn't necessarily mean you lost muscle provided that you are eating properly. It simply means you didn't consume enough carbs for the day so you muscle glycogen levels are a bit on the low side. So once you 'carb up' you will be good to go! Also it is important that carbohydrates are about 40-45 % of you diet especially when bulking.
CONSUME ENOUGH PROTEIN– So may of us have heard the great bodybuilders say to " consume 1 gram of protein for 1 gram of bodyweight". Although this might be great advice this can be quite difficult for some of us.
Imagine if you weigh 200lbs , should you consume 200 grams of protein everyday? That's quite a tough task. It is okay to consume about 20-30 grams of protein below you bodyweight and still gain and repair muscle. I have personally done this and I am personally still growing muscle. This is done by many others as well. I currently weigh 180lbs and I am consuming about 140-150 grams and I am still gaining muscles but try to stay in the 20-30 grams below body weight range.
Protein is important for you to build muscle tissue as well as strength, so it is very important in you diet. For those of you that struggle to get in enough protein in you regular meals I recommend buying a Whey Protein supplement. I personally do not get in enough protein from my daily meals so I use a protein supplement.
You can take it about 1-2 times a day. For those of you that have a protein intake close to you body weight and you just need the supplement for a few more grams of protein I say once a day. But those of you who have a really poor protein intake I recommend twice for the day. Maybe for breakfast with a meal and dinner with a meal.
These supplements tend to be low in calories as well and I tend to take mine with water. If you are interested in purchasing any Whey protein supplements check out here.
You also want a protein intake at about 40-45% of you diet.
CONSUME YOUR FATS – We often consider fat a bad thing since consuming too much fatty foods makes us fat ofcourse! But there are also good fats that exists and these are important for important body functions.
Fats are important to help keep our brain healthy and it is also very important for protection of our internal organs. They also help you to gain a bit of muscle and provide us with energy as well.
Fats only need to consist of about 10-15% of our diet. You do not need to consume a lot of fats in you diet but it's also a very big part of you diet and for regular body functions.Some good fats you can consume are like avocados, nuts, fish, dark chocolate and a lot more!
I hope this information helped you guys to understand the principles of bulking and I hoped it helped you in your fitness life one way or another. Thank you guys for reading!

In a wooden cabin on the edge of the forest, a strange young girl referred to only as 'Kid' holds court over her trapper Dad and his isolated bush family; she sits beneath the dinner table, makes animal sounds and refuses to be washed. This pitch-black fable is told through the eyes — and distinctive voice — of her sympathetic brother 'Little Man', who one night makes a fateful decision that liberates her into the wild. Filmed in gas-lit sepia by Leon Narbey, the atmospheric and award-winning film announced the directorial talents of the late Brad McGann.
A breathless live action cartoon for adults and twisted children, Playing Possum follows two colourful bush critters as they chase each other along and around the length of SH1, while battling over a choice piece of road kill. Possum won the Grand Prix at the L'etrange Film Festival. Creator Peter Salmon went on to direct episodes for TV series Outrageous Fortune, Go Girls, and Offspring. In 2007 Salmon's dramatic short Fog was invited into International Critics' Week at Cannes Film Festival.
Over its 16 year run, kids programme Sticky TV gave many young presenters their chance to shine — from Erin Simpson to Kanoa Lloyd (The Project) and weatherman Sam Wallace. In this episode from the final season in 2017, co-host Leanna Cooper is eager to smash a guitar to see what's inside it, while Walter Neilands pies himself in the face and heads to the South Island to see if he can create a flying machine. The episode also features co-host Teddy the Dog (a sheepdog-poodle cross), a look inside an old TV set, and advice from children on how to deal with tough teachers.
In this full-length episode, Heartland visits the heart of the North Island: the Waimarino district at the foot of Mount Ruapehu. Host Gary McCormick hits town in time for the yearly Waimarino Easter Hunt. In Ohakune he talks to a policeman about a strange case of streaking near the town's famously oversized carrot, visits an equally overized collection of salt and pepper shakers, then sets off on an early morning pig hunt. Vegetarians be warned: many expired members of the animal kingdom make guest appearances.
This morbidly funny short, made by students of Auckland's Media Design School, depicts the demise of 26 alphabetical and animated animals at the hands of nature's greatest enemy — the human. Framed as a father possum (Phil Greeves) reading his children their favourite bedtime story, the alliterative animal deaths are undercut with cheerful giggling from the two young possums. The film won acclaim at festivals worldwide —screening at South by Southwest in 2016, and taking out Best Animated film in the Comic-Con Film Festival later that year.
This edition of the NFU's long-running Weekly Review series firstly looks at making of apparel for the 1950 Empire Games, including singlets "dyed in the traditional black". Then it's down to Wellington Zoo to meet their new elephant, Maharanee; and across the harbour to examine earthmoving efforts to alter the Hutt River's course and save Barton's Bush from being swept away. Lastly, it's up Mt Egmont (aka Mt Taranaki) to follow good keen rangers trapping possums and shooting goats — some hiding up trees — to protect the native forest and slopes from erosion.
This acclaimed TV series heads to Aotearoa's heartland, dispensing with narration or a city slicker presenter so that local personalities can represent themselves. The opening episode travels to the West Coast to meet the 'Coasters' who live there: from publicans, prospectors and bushmen, to sheila truck drivers, knitting drag queens and musical theatre directors. The Dominion Post's Karl du Fresne wrote of the show: "Producer Melanie Rakena has done a superb job seeking out engaging characters with interesting stories and allowing them to tell them in their own way."
The intrepid Ice TV trio — Jon Bridges, Nathan Rarere and Petra Bagust — head to Nelson to host the 1998 Montana New Zealand Wearable Art Awards. They meet the creators of the fantastic fashion catwalk extravaganza, whose garments are inspired by everything from Alice in Wonderland, roadkill, X-rays, birds, and the Buzzy Bee, to taniwha and Pasifika. The 'Illumination Illusion' section (designed to be seen in ultravoilet light) is a highlight. Bridges and Rarere revel in going behind the scenes of the 'bizarre bras' section, and Bagust tries on a possum-skin bikini.
In this 2013 short, a possum-trapping nature boy is challenged when a woman moves into a house on the edge of the bush, looking for a fresh start. Cinematographer Ginny Loane captures the wintry central plateau landscape where the fable of life and death plays out. Director Leo Woodhead co-wrote the script with Paul Stanley Ward; the result followed Woodhead's short Cargo (2007) to the Venice Film Festival, and won the Jury Prize at the 2014 Hong Kong Film Festival. Director Andrew Adamson (Shrek) called it "a well structured, beautifully shot narrative."
This low-budget feature fishtails after a Mum and her teenage kids, kicking around the far north one sleepy summer. Store Santa holiday jobs, teen romance, purloined cars, pet possums, and pot deals fill out the small town shenanigans plotline. Ray Woolf plays an undercover cop, and Calvin Tuteao is a kauri-hugging suitor. Director Peter Tait (who acted in Kitchen Sink) wrote the film to showcase the charisma of kids he was teaching at Taipa College. Made for under $20,000, the film "was bigger than Titanic" at Oruru's Swamp Palace cinema and community hall.
