On this episode of Baseball Outside the Box,
Coach Caliendo struggled with which topic to lead off with, 1) Understanding Sports Science/Sabermetrics/Run Probability/Run Expectancy/Launch Angle and more. Or our guests journey through not one but two Tommy John surgeries and becoming an all-star both times. Our guest shares his story about how hard work, resolve, and grit got him through the tough times. A great life lesson for players, coaches, and parents so they can help avoid players going through these growing pains. Coach Caliendo decided to begin the conversation with the struggle Dan Blewett.
Dan Blewett gives some great advice on what pitchers can do to try and reduce the chances of a major arm injury. He discusses what it takes to come back from these type of surgeries and to avoid them at all costs. For parents who believe their kids should have Tommy John Surgery in order to throw harder are completely wrong. Players should prehab so they do not have to go through grueling rehab. The old days of throwing through your arm hurting are over. It is important that players are honest with their coaches and parents. You may be scared to say your arm hurts because you want to play or not disappoint the coach or team, but doing that increases your chances of a major injury and hurting your team at the same time.
The second half of the show digs into the sabermetrics in MLB and what we know and don't know as far as their application to amateur baseball. Plus, is bunting, stealing, and launch angle applicable to younger players? All this high tech data, science, how to use it properly to help develop players. How it can hurt if not used correctly. Understanding launch angle so it can be taught at all levels according to a players strength, bat speed, exit speed and more. Young kids and coaches working with them really need to understand launch angles and how to evaluate them, use it properly.
Plus, run probability and run expectancy are discussed and how you can use these to help your team from an offensive stand point. How coaches can use this at all levels to help them make the decision on what is best for the team. How the batting average is very misleading when it comes to determining a player playing, order in batting spot, and so much more.
Dan Blewett was a professional pitcher for over 6 years, started the Warbird Academy, a pitching coach and has a podcast called Dear Baseball Gods. He is writing a book about his tumultuous, difficult career in baseball. He overcame Tommy John surgery on two different occasions – (2008 and 2012), battling back to become an All-Star after each one. I'm sharing my story of hard work, resolve and grit. Degree NameBachelor of Arts (B.A.) at University of Maryland Baltimore County. Double major in the fields of Philosophy & Psychology. Also a fitness writer, Dan has authored articles in Collegiate Baseball, T-Nation.com, Bodybuilding.com, Stack.com and EliteFTS.com. Dan's first book can be found on Amazon and is titled Pitching Isn't Complicated. A Certified Trainer with the National strength and condition association. Dan is passionate about the mental side of baseball and teaching young players how to be smart, intuitive, and gritty on the field. Having suffered pitching arm injuries himself, he is also dedicated to preventing injury in the players he trains.

What does the average person care about?
Note: None of these applies to me -- at least, not intentionally; I like to think that they're a quick composite of the current state of society, and not targeting any group or person in particular.
I hope he doesn't know that I'm a virgin.
I better get a free sandwich because of this. This thing has no toppings!
What do you expect? He's a liberal.
What do you expect? He's a conservative.
Why didn't he thank me? That deserved a thank you.
No, I was the one who fixed it. Why don't you go ask so and so? He'll back me up. It was me, not the other guy! It was ME!
No, I was the one who helped you, remember? What has he ever done for you? Forget about him. I do things out of the kindness of my heart!
Jesus, how much do you think that guy weighs? He looks ridiculous.
Wow, look at that guy. I bet he has no friends.
Who did the dishes last? It isn't MY turn. It's HIS turn.
Did you hear about whatshername? Yeah, she broke up with her boyfriend yesterday!
Yeah? Well, at least I have a life!
What are you doing using that? That's MINE!
Public opinion is turning against my favorite pop star! Ugh, what can she do to be on top again?
You really think your favorite pop star is better than mine? Please! My favorite is WAY more real, and even writes her own songs.
Hey, I'm your FAN. No one cares more about what you do than the fans. We DESERVE something new NOW. Do you have any idea how long we've been waiting?
I know that he's controlling and a jerk to other people, but I can't help how I feel about him.
If I could just manage to talk to women and get a girlfriend, I wouldn't need anything else in life.
God, I'm so socially inept and ugly. I'm a total loser.
Our sports team won last night! We're the best!
I can't eat that. I'll get fat if I eat stuff like that.
I want a smaller nose. My life is pretty good, but if I could save up the money to get my nose fixed, I wouldn't have any worries.
That celebrity wears way too much makeup. I would NEVER look like that.
You don't have a Facebook? I didn't even know that that was POSSIBLE in this day and age.
Is this fifty percent off? Better get two, even though I don't even need one.
At least I don't drive an SUV. How much of the ozone layer do you think that guy is destroying with that thing?
My friend laughed at me yesterday for being awkward in front of his other friend. I feel really bad now, because I want him to like me.
I got a B on the final. Ugh, my GPA is going to suffer because of this.
Ew, you smoke? You ARE aware that that's going to kill you and make you stink, right?
Go a few more blocks and waste some more gas to get to the other gas station; gas is five cents cheaper there than it is here.
Did you just spill that all over MY rug?
You need to get out of the house more. This isn't good for your MENTAL HEALTH.
Only poor, fat people eat at this fast food chain. That one documentary told me that fast food's bad for your health, and it doesn't cost much, so I put two and two together.
Jeez, are you still not getting this? Sorry, but you are obviously wrong about your philosophical stance, here. Ever read a book by this guy? No? Didn't think so. Go read him; he'll change your life the way he changed mine. Maybe then, you'll understand things in as much depth as I do.
You're obviously a blahblahblah-ist. Ever considered blehblehbleh-ism? Because that's what I am.
Who are you to judge me? You know what? I don't care. I don't care what you or anyone else thinks about me.
Who are you to judge my favorite music artist? I'd like to see YOU make a hit album.
Hey, do whatever you want, as long as it doesn't break the golden rule or hurt anybody else.
Being sexy is important, but ONLY if you can do it without getting surgical enhancements. It's okay to spend tons of money on your appearance so long as it doesn't involve a knife.
Who are you to tell me that I can't have children? What if my future son turns out to be the next Einstein? You would have prevented the next EINSTEIN from coming into the world.
Wow, all you ever do is talk about the world's problems. How depressing! You need to either lighten up and have a little fun or kill yourself. You hate YOUR life, right? That's what you're saying, right?
Love can change the world. Love everyone unconditionally!
My life is meaningful because I am sexually liberated. Free your inner slut; you won't regret it!
Society would be so much better if we'd get rid of all of the corporations and show nature a little respect. Down with corruption! Up with sustainability!
You don't believe in aliens? Wow, talk about having a closed mind.
There are trillions of stars in the universe, so I KNOW for a FACT that aliens are out there.
We're supposed to live in a progressive society, but gays can't marry? Unbelievable.
I normally don't get so riled up about issues like this, but what can I say? This particular one is actually important to me, and is a big part of who I am.
You have a WHAT fetish? Man, you need to see a shrink.
I didn't know you liked THAT kind of music. It's not a big deal, I just never would have expected it from you, of all people.
HE didn't show up for work today? He's never a missed a day before. That's definitely not like him, the little goody goody!
He thinks that's a funny show? What, is he retarded or something? Then again, most people enjoy their low-brow humor...
I don't care if that's my responsibility. I deserve a BREAK right now, alright? Piss off.
He sleeps in until WHEN? Jesus, what a lazy guy.
Can you even spell? I'm not going to listen to anything you have to say if you type like that.
If I could only obtain the thing that I currently desire most, I wouldn't ever want anything else. I just need ONE MORE.
It's not cheating if it's online, right? I deserve affection.
I deserve respect.
I am entitled to anything I want, so long as it doesn't cause anyone physical pain. Well, maybe I deserve most of those things, too. I work hard!
I know that it wasn't my fault, but I still feel awful. Why did I do that? I regret it so much.
I can't stop thinking about that one particular event in my life that caused me and/or those around me some degree of discomfort. Screw the rest of the world; I HAVE to focus on this. It's a big deal!
I trust my senses, alright? You can keep on telling me what you THINK you heard me say, but I KNOW what I said. I'm not wrong. How could I be wrong about this?
What school do you go to? Oh...
Did you hear what happened on the news last night?
I know that what he did was wrong, but that doesn't give you any right to talk to him like that. He's a FAMILY member.
What happened to that country yesterday? Someone started bombing them? Yikes. Anyway, what else is on?

wow... that post is very good. It contains pretty much all of the stuff that normal human life in western societies rotate about. That´s gold, right there.ReplyDelete
Thanks for the comment.ReplyDelete
People care about vapid nonsense, because they can get away with ignoring the problems in their society, now. If only they'd focus the energy that it takes to care about this stuff on getting over their biases and talking to one another properly instead.

It might be a bit pre-mature but I think I love you.ReplyDelete
For real.
I know I'm guilty of some of these but a lot of it has to do with what happens when you do talk about something meaningful. You get:
"Wow, all you ever do is talk about the world's problems. How depressing! You need to either lighten up and have a little fun or kill yourself. You hate YOUR life, right? That's what you're saying, right?"
I wish I could tell them 'no, I don't hate MY life but I DO hate the suffering and unfairness it is based/dependent upon on'
It's so nice to know that there other similar-minded young people out there who working on concrete alternatives to our current reality.
Haha, thanks. And that one bugs me, too -- especially because it's so prevalent. The ironic thing about it is that many people who make that statement see themselves as progressive and "tolerant" when it comes to other issues. Within every time period lies a complacent populace who thinks that they've gotten everything figured out -- as they laugh at the errors of their ancestors -- but they're often prone to the exact same errors that were committed in the past, and have only prevented themselves from committing particular forms of the errors.ReplyDelete

I like how this starts as a parade of vaguely misogynistic naive liberal stereotypes and then transforms into everyone who has ever disagreed with you on anything ever.ReplyDelete
Once again, you fail to distinguish between "everyone who has ever disagreed with me" and "every idea that has ever seemed unreasonable to me." You know, not everyone thinks in terms of personal dramas.ReplyDelete

Seriously believing that average people think like this is a sign that your life experience is limited to high school and sitcoms, along with everyone that agrees with you.ReplyDelete
Considering that each of the above fabricated thoughts covers a different facet of society/psychology/general cognition, it's hilarious that you've managed to condense them all down into a single "thinking like this." Which of the hundred thoughts am I falsely associating with a particular subset of society? All of them?ReplyDelete
There are a hundred thoughts from which to pick for critique, and you're too lazy to pick a single one? You can't provide a single counterargument or scientifically demonstrate why things like superiority complexes, cognitive dissonance, narcissism, intellectual masturbation, and witch hunting are not prevalent social impediments?
Jeez, just about every conceivable form of socially corrosive thinking was covered, so either the world is a utopia or you have secret knowledge of all the real problems out there. Someone better tell the king of Earth about you before it's too late...
...Or maybe I should speak in rhetoric only, so that I'm "on your level" and you can understand me:ReplyDelete
Seriously believing that not a single item from the posted list is an accurate reflection of modern values and thought is a sign that your life experience precludes shopping malls, traffic lights, call centers, bars, political rallies, and, most importantly but least likely to be the case, the Internet -- which lets us say what we're really thinking.

The amount of smugness you're displaying here is amazing, considering you don't have the insight, empathy, or intelligence to back it up.ReplyDelete
You get what you give!ReplyDelete
Keep those one-liners and unfounded/irrelevant insights into my life experience coming. So far, you still haven't made a single counter point.
I think you're just mad that I'm not angrily deleting all of your comments and am instead putting them on display.

At the end of our seventh year of operation, the Community Free Software Group is at a crossroads.
To one side is dissolution—the orderly, proscribed process of dissolving the organization and distributing its remaining assets. On the other side rebirth, as a revived group with fresh purpose and a renewed sense of mission.
During my tenure as President of the Board of Directors I was unable to overcome numerous impediments, both personal and professional, which stood in the way of restoring the Group to a reasonable level of activity. Under the circumstances a critical evaluation of our progress and current state is both understandable and merited. The difficulties we experience are not unique to us, as people and organizations of all backgrounds are undergoing similar economic and structural hardships at this point in time. Regardless, what efforts I made to bring CFSG back to life after our recent setbacks were insufficient.
It is my personal belief that the core mission of the Group is still sound and necessary, and any failings are not related to the concept of Community Service through Free Software. And it is my hope that, rather than disappear, the Group is preparing to be reborn under new leadership. Should that be the case, I will continue to participate in and support CFSG to the best of my ability.
— David J. Williams
2009–2010 CFSG Board of Directors:
David J. Williams, President

Texas DPS Seeks Publics Help to Solve 25 Year-Old Murder
Harris County Sheriff's Office
The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) is seeking the public's help in solving the 1991 murder of Harris County Sheriff's Deputy Roxyann Allee, who was shot and killed 25 years ago on September 30.
At approximately 7:30 p.m. on September 30, 1991, Deputy Allee was abducted as she walked to her van after shopping at Greenspoint Mall (located at North Freeway and Texas 8 Beltway). Witnesses observed two black men force Deputy Allee into her van at gunpoint.
Later that evening, Allee's van was found burned near the mall. Her body was discovered a short time later at another location. Deputy Allee had been shot and killed. At the time of her death, Deputy Allee worked at the Harris County Jail.
Governor Abbott had this to say:
Deputy Allee was a committed public servant who dedicated her career to the service and protection of others, and it would be a monumental injustice for her murder to go unsolved. We hope that renewing the public's interest about this case will uncover critical information, and bring closure to the investigation and her family.
As part of the Office of the Governor and Texas Crime Stopper's Fallen Hero Reward – Texas Remembers program, a reward up to $20,000 is being offered for information that results in this case being solved. Crime Stoppers of Houston, in partnership with the 100 Club, also is offering a reward up to $10,000 through its Fallen Hero Project. All tips are guaranteed to be anonymous.
To be eligible for the cash rewards, anyone with information about the murder of Deputy Roxyann Allee can provide anonymous tips in three different ways:
- Call the Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-252-TIPS (8477).
- Text the letters "DPS" – followed by your tip – to 274637 (CRIMES) from your cell phone.
- Submit a tip online at the Tip Submit website

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. - Reverend Robert Shanklin has been a civil rights activist for more than half of his lifetime. He's been fighting for equality for 52 years.
Living through a time and in a world of race-based discrimination inspired him to make civil rights the primary focus of his life's work.
"I can remember the days of when you had...when you'd go to restaurants, you had to go to the back and get your food," recalled Shanklin.
He said some days, it feels like time is at a standstill.
"Today, I feel like I am back in the 60s, from the way things are going," he said.
New legislation seeks to restore some hope in the Black community by allowing access to unredacted documents pertaining to cold cases during the Civil Rights Movement era.
The Civil Rights Cold Case Records Collection Act was originally a bill co-sponsored by Senators Doug Jones (D-Ala) and Ted Cruz (R-Texas). The bill was ultimately written by a group of high school students in New Jersey.
After months of circulation, it was signed into law by President Trump Tuesday.
It will:
Require the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) to establish a collection of cold case records regarding unsolved criminal civil rights cases, which government offices must publicly disclose without redaction or withholding
- Establish a Civil Rights Cold Case Records Review Board to facilitate the review, transmission to NARA, and public disclosure of records related to such cases
Reverend Shanklin wants people to understand that civil rights are human rights.
"There are individuals that committed crimes against African Americans, against black folks that wouldn't treat a dog that way," he exclaimed.
He believes civil rights leaders both of past and present generations would be overjoyed by this new legislation.
"They would really rejoice to know that the doors will be opened to look into some of the injustice brought upon them," he explained. "They would rejoice."
Shanklin said he has faith that the new law will expose the cruel actions and behaviors against black people during such a turbulent period in American history.
He's hoping that people will be held accountable, even decades later.
"I hope that many many many of the cases in the South will be brought to light, and then those individuals that committed them will be brought to justice," he added.

Congrats Kev, May 22 is a fantastic date.
Congrats Kev, May 22 is a fantastic date.
For those who care
Short summary
KAA Gent, is a football team from Ghent ( ) my hometown, has just became champions of Belgium after defeating Standard with 2-0 (Kums, Neto). It's the first time in 115 year history we managed that. Also next year we're guaranteed spot in CL (pot 4 ) Remarkable is that 15 years ago, Gent was struggling with major debts and on urge of financial breakdown. But current president Ivan De Witte & Manager Michel Louwagie (bit Ausilio & Fassone & Bolingbroke' jobs in 1 person) saved KAA Gent from death and slowly but steady revived it to a healthy team (budget 44m+) with their own stadium : Ghelamco Arena (20.000 people)
It was finalized last year, but sadly that year we really sucked and played Play-Off II. Shame, the team had potential but too many rotten apples in core. Fans were very disappointed.
This year we appointed a new coach Hein Vanhaezebrouck. He sold the rotten apples and got 'good' boys instead, with Championship as result
The Stars
- Coach Hein Vanhaezebrouck : He doesn't admit it, but he is solely the guy who made Gent champions. His harsh training regime, cleaning out the rotten apples, intense motivations, tactical superiority and the ability of making mediocre players perform over their potential. He stresses out the importance of Physic and stamina. Also an excellent people-manager. Thanks Hein! He often started a 3-5-2 ( you can imagine the grudge I had against that ) but played very fresh and entertaining football with rarely crosses, mostly passing through center. Later he adapted to 3-4-3, 4-3-3 and 4-2-3-1. Which worked out greatly.
- Striker Laurent Depoitre (26, Belgian) : A technical, assisting, scoring target man. A tank striker with amazing stamina, power and speed. We got him from a low team for free, expecting him to be a sub, but he exploded at Gent, scoring 14 goals and assisting 10 goals himself. Player to watch in CL (at least I hope so). Disadvantage is that he works too much for the team and should be more selfish and score more.
- Captain and regista Sven Kums (yes pronounced Cums) (26, Belgian) : a modern regista with excellent passing abilities and controls the midfield. Extremely important for Gent. However he is very injury prone and doesn't assist/score much. Scoring his first goal in champions game vs Standard. However he constantly had a 95% passing in most games. Smart player but needs to get his statistics up. Shame he isn't called up as international.
- CM/LM/AM Brecht Dejaeghere (23, Belgian) : Wasn't impressive last season, but this season he ripped defenses apart, assisting, actions, dribbles, .. amazing player, with a big stamina as well. One of the best in Gent, also shame he isn't international, but on his position it'd been hopeless anyway (Hazard, Mertens, De Bruyne, Witsel, Fellaini,..)
- Trequartista/AM Daniel Milicevic (29, Suisse/Serbian) : Free kick specialist, amazing ball technique and insane shooting control. Scored massive and assisted a lot, not my favorite because he's not consistent, but regardless great player for Gent. Palermo wanted him as replacement for Dybala/Vazquez.
- Keeper Matz Sels (22, Belgian) : Amazing keeper, saved Gent many times, chosen as second best keeper (After Ryan from Club Brugge ; Aussie), great reflexes and line keeper. Weak on corners and long balls tho. Regardless still time to learn. Had over 15+ clean sheets.
- CB Rami Gershon (26, Israeli) : One of biggest revelations this season. Harsh but fair defender. Only missed 1 game this season, leader in defense but sometimes gets caught by position unawareness. Regardless one of big heroes this season.
- LAM/RAM Moses 'Daddy' Simon (19, Nigerian) : Came in wintermercato, and changed the team's mentality for good. Gent was struggling with scoring. He came and scored 7 goals in 10 games. Surprise of season, shocked, dribbled, scored,.. Biggest talent. Last games he was awful, but regardless he is young and already shown much class. Teams have offered 10-15m for him (probably Turkish teams), now on U-20 WC.
Other stars who were important
- CM/DM Renato Neto (23, Brazilian) : Educated at Sporting Clube de Portugal, CM/DM, with immense stamina and power, fabulous pass and great header. Great motivator in squad.
- Striker Nicklas Pedersen (29, Danish) : Stylish footballer but very injury prone, has amazing class and scores fabulous goals
- Striker/LAM/RAM Benito Raman (20, Belgian) : youth product, fast dribbler, great stamina but he misses a lot of chances. Regardless had a big part in Championship
- Regista/AM Hannes Van der Bruggen (22, Belgian) : Also a youth product with a great pass but doesn't have much stamina. Bit inconsistent as well.
Last sunday there was a celebration in city of Ghent ; There were 125.000 people present. Massive for a team who has a stadium of 20.000 people. Papers call it a sleeping Giant awaking. I was there as well
The nickname of AA Gent is The Buffalos; it comes from around 1910, the famous/infamous 'Buffalo' Bill did many shows in Europe showing his shooting skills, hunting indians,... And the crowd cheered 'Buffalo! Buffalo! Buffalo!' it got picked up by Students whom chanted in stadium back in 1910. Ever since Gent are the Buffalos.
Anyway thanks for reading this. Hopefully next year some of you support this team in CL, it'd be awesome!

Not yet another Death Note caused by the Ryuk Ransomware
Ryuk ransomware is a derivative of the Hermes ransomware. Its objective is to encrypt assets such as files and data, cause the unavailability of resources and force all victims to pay a ransom or suffer the consequences. enSilo prevents Ryuk ransomware attacks.
Your network has been penetrated, your valuable files have been encrypted and the only way to decrypt your data is by paying an unknown entity a ransom via Bitcoins. This is not the beginning of a science fiction story as many of us would think. In recent years, organizations have been facing this harsh reality due to ransomware attacks. Organizations affected by a ransomware attack have their intellectual property and intangible assets encrypted at the mercy of their attackers. Ransomware attacks typically execute towards the same outcomes. On execution, ransomware encrypts assets such as files and data and then requests a ransom, typically in a Bitcoin payment method, for decrypting them. The failure to do so usually results in the destruction of all encrypted files.
According to KrebsonSecurity, a similar story occurred for Data Resolution LLC during Christmas Eve of 2018. Data Resolution LLC is a cloud company offering various cloud and online hosting solutions. The company was hit with a ransomware attack and its online resources went offline. The restoration and recovery of these critical customer facing assets have been a daunting process. Unfortunately, restoration of critical systems and assets isn't always the end-story of organizations affected by a ransomware attack. Many organizations don't have updated business continuity and disaster recovery plans in place which easily and quickly provide them with the necessary restoration tools. As a result, unavailability of critical systems results in the loss of money and data and in some cases, even the loss of customers. For many organizations, ransomware attacks are a devastating story they cannot afford.
Over the years there have been many types of ransomware attacks. However, the most recent attack, the same that hit Data Resolution LLC, is the Ryuk ransomware attack. Ryuk is a fictional Japanese character that belongs to that manga series Death Note created by Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata. The Ryuk character specializes in dropping a "death note" which is analogous to the devastation caused by this Ransomware. Online resources like the one here and here suggest that the Ryuk ransomware is a derivative of the Hermes ransomware as both threats share similar code and functionality. Previously, the Hermes ransomware was associated with the North Korean Lazarus group. However, the Ryuk ransomware is associated with the GRIM SPIDER group. Despite the attribution process, the objective behind the Ryuk ransomware is similar to its predecessors. The objective is to encrypt assets such as files and data, cause unavailability of resources and force all victims to pay a ransom or suffer the consequences. At enSilo, our Endpoint Security Platform can help organizations protect against these types of attacks.
Online resources such as the one here provide great technical analysis and breakdown of the Ryuk Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs). Therefore, we won't attempt to get into the technical details in this blog post. Instead, we will discuss the attack workflow and demonstrate how the enSilo Endpoint Security Platform blocks the ransomware on execution in real-time. In addition, we will demonstrate how the platform detects and intercepts the ransomware post the execution process in each step of the attack chain.
Attack Workflow
Two Ryuk Ransomware Portable Executable (PE) variants were tested on an enSilo protected endpoint. The following is the static characteristics of both files:
SHA1: c4f3e9a0dc9b9de53920c4d2fcea8d07f8db2f5b

File Size: 126976 bytes
Compiled Time: 2018-12-11 23:09:18
OS: 64 Bit
Filename: evilRansom.exe
The following figures illustrate how the enSilo Endpoint Security Platform visualized the entire attack chain from detection to prevention in real-time:
Figure 1: Pre-Execution Block
Figure 2: Pre-Execution Block
The enSilo Endpoint Security Platform is capable of detecting and blocking the execution of each variant in multiple stages of the attack chain. For example, the following figures show that on execution, both Ryuk ransomware variants attempt to access and inject the lsass.exe process:
Figure 3: OJVXY.exe Injection
Figure 4: evilRansome.exe Injection
Following the attack chain, the Ryuk ransomware attempts to adjust its token privileges by threat injection into other running processes on the system:
Figure 5: Thread injection
The objective of this thread injection is described very well over here. If successful, the ransomware process will then inject another system process (in this case it is the taskhost.exe process) for the manipulation of existing files and the creation of new ones. The following figures illustrate that process:
Figure 6: file creation
A system running enSilo in full-protection mode will never get to these stages in the attack chain because the platform blocks the ransomware on execution. However, on unprotected endpoints in which the attack is successful files will be encrypted and will be modified with the RYK file extension as shown in the following figure:
Figure 7: Before Encryption
Figure 8: After Encryption
Final Notes
This blog post provides a brief explanation of the possible origination, attribution and the objective of the Ryuk Ransomware. In addition, this blog post also provides a quick overview of the Ryuk ransomware attack chain. However, the most important take away is that organizations that choose to use the enSilo Endpoint Security Platform are protected against the destructive nature of this ransomware.

text: Share: Comments Print August 28, 2008 at 11:33 AM Checking in on Houston Posted by Jayda Evans Uncertainty remained even after the Storm's shootaround this morning. Houston apparently held its session at 9 a.m. and because no one in the Storm camp could really verify who did travel with the Comets and who is healthy enough to play tonight, Storm coach Brian Agler continued to refuse to disclose his starting lineup. "We're going to wait and see who they start," Agler said. "It's enough to be patient and wait. We definitely have one person missing and that alters how we play. It's the same thing with them. We watched them enough to know they have a big lineup they can go to and they have a small lineup." Agler was so vague, he didn't even commit to Olympian Sue Bird being in the starting five. But if she doesn't start, I'll shave my head. Seriously. The major issue with Houston is the health of Hamchetou Maiga-Ba, who suffered a high left ankle sprain while representing Mali at the Beijing Games. She did not travel with the Comets, remaining in Houston to receive extra therapy. Maiga-Ba is expected to join the Comets in Sacramento on Friday for the Saturday matchup against the Monarchs. A spokeswoman for the Comets also said coach Karleen Thompson hasn't finalized her starters for tonight. Two players returning for Houston are guards Tamecka Dixon and Roneeka Hodges, who was cut by the Storm during training camp. Dixon suffered a pulled calf in the final game before the Olympic hiatus, missing the matchup. But she healed during the break and is ready to play. Hodges started one game for the Comets, averaging 7.8 points and 2.1 rebounds in eight games for the team. "She's played well for them," Agler said of Hodges. "She gives them another three-point shooter. They run different actions for her and she has started for them, so she's another possibility that could be out there and alters how they play. But she's definitely a three-point shooter. That's her strength." If you're looking for a positive sign as the Storm begins its final stretch without franchise cornerstone Lauren Jackson (ankle surgery), the KeyArena hoops still favor the home team. When shootaround concluded, the team played its normal half-court shot game and guard Tanisha Wright, the first to attempt the shot, swished hers. She was the only to hit, but the Storm is going to need her scoring tonight and whatever vibe that helped Seattle go 13-1 at the facility thus far. Comments

Organizing Dissent: Unions, the State, and the Democratic Teachers' Movement in Mexico
Organizing Dissent: Unions, the State, and the Democratic Teachers' Movement in Mexico
Organizing Dissent examines the democratic movement that emerged in the 1970s and 1980s within Mexico's National Union of Education Workers, the largest union in Latin America. The size, perseverance, and success the movement stood out in a country whose governing regime was renowned for its ability to co-opt, control, and repress dissent.
Maria Lorena Cook analyzes the development of the teachers' movement from its origins in the 1970s through the economic crisis 0f the 1980s and into the early 1990s under the Salinas administration. She explores the evolving relationship among the union leadership, the state, and rank-and-file teachers, looks closely at organization dynamics and competing strategies within the movement, and compares the successes and failures of six regional contingents of the teachers' movement located in southern and central Mexico.
This book is about how popular social movements emerge and survive in authoritarian regimes and what their presence means for political and social change. The 1970s and 1980s saw the rise of social movements (urban neighborhood organizations, independent peasant and labor movements, environmental, women's, and human rights organizations) under authoritarian governments throughout Latin America. In 1989 the world watched in surprise as popular mobilizations in Eastern Europe helped topple one communist regime after another. The presence and apparent strength of social movements in authoritarian contexts challenged social science research, which had largely focused on the range of movements that emerged in the 1960s and 1970s in the United States or on the "postmaterialist" appearance of social movements in Western Europe -- that is, on movements in advanced industrial democracies. What was missing was an explanation for why and how movements emerged in poorer countries with authoritarian governments, and an understanding of how this . . .

I wasn't in the market. I already had five bikes. There was no more room in the garage. And then, one quiet Tuesday arvo, out of curiosity, I threw a leg over a Jamis Renegade Expat and went for a spin around the block. By the time I rolled back into the shop I was muttering "sweeeet" under my breath and thinking about which bike would have to make way for it.
The thing that jumped out immediately, in that first ride, was the handling. Sure, it didn't leap forward like a race bike, but it was far snappier than the Surly Cross-Check that I owned at the time—the bike in my collection that compared most closely to the Renegade.
But what was more impressive—and continues to put a smile on my face—was the cornering. It was lively, poised, and far more accurate than the Cross-Check. When you pointed it, it responded promptly, tracked consistently, and you could lean in with confidence. The Cross-Check, by comparison, was like a bowl of noodles; when you point that thing into a corner, you don't really know where you'll end up. It's an excellent bike in other ways, but as a pure riding experience, it was trounced by the Jamis.
The handling of the Renegade was so good it could even be compared—vaguely—to my vintage high-end racing bike, a Rossin Performance from the early-mid nineties. The Rossin is beautifully trashy, steel, and it's a damn bullet. Going downhill on that thing is an experience to enliven the senses, and can cause one to ruminate upon one's mortality. The faster you go, the more it rewards you, and when you get it right, cornering on it is like getting sucked into a vortex. One second you're in the land of the living, the next you're glimpsing truth and beauty. But to get there requires experience, confidence and a little—how shall I say it—life-endangering wildness.
I'm not saying that the Renegade has the heart-stopping handling of the Rossin, but it offers up a taste of this excitement in a much more approachable, safe and versatile package. In other words, you don't have to be an intemperate speed-zealot to reap enjoyment by the barrow load, and afterwards you can go and do the shopping on it. It could do everything that I wanted it to from a practical perspective, but with some flourish! By the end of the month I had put some dough down, and had my Cross-Check on Gumtree.
So what exactly is the Jamis Renegade Expat? This kind of bike goes by a few names, depending on who you ask, but the most common ones are adventure bike or gravel bike—although neither moniker reflects just how versatile they are. They're part of a relatively recent wave of bicycle design that takes technologies and innovations from the pro racing scene and applies them to bikes that are more appropriate for the general public, and more useful to people's lives.
And I think it's great. In the past, if you were shopping for a bike, you had a choice between a thoroughbred racing machine—something like my Rossin—that was very light, very fast, and very limited in its applications, or a starkly utilitarian bike like a Surly Disc Trucker (which has by-and-large replaced the venerable Surly Long Haul Trucker) that is amazingly sturdy, and would do all your real world jobs, but that is about exciting as a limp lettuce leaf. Enter the gravel bike.
The build
Frame and fork
The heart of the Jamis Renegade Expat is a Reynolds 520 steel frame combined with Jamis' own ECO (Enhanced Compliance Offset) carbon fork. Going for carbon at the front end cuts a fair bit of weight compared to steel, and makes the handling sharper, but limits how much weight you can load it with. Bidon or Salsa Anything Cages are fine (each fork leg has double eyelets), but if you wanted to run front panniers with this bike, you might consider replacing it with a steel fork. I did notice that the carbon fork was a lot harsher on rough surfaces than the raked steel Surly Cross-Check fork, but for the more accurate handling, it was a trade-off I was willing to make, and it didn't take long to get used to this new normal.
As far as the frame goes, Reynolds 520 is solid, reasonably light, and doesn't cost a lot. It's the same tubeset that comes on some of the Jamis Coda series commuter bikes. We've sold squillions of them over the years and I can't remember doing a single frame warranty, so we know it's up to the task – some of those commuters get serioulsy loaded. If you did want the weight reduction, stiffness and refinement of a higher-end tubeset, you could look at the Jamis Renegade Exploit or Jamis Renegade Escapade, both of which utilise the superior Reynolds 631 tubing. Being a purveyor of fine steel, I was tempted by these offerings, but in the end I was satisfied that 520 was more than good enough for what I wanted to do, and of course at a friendlier price.
For the kind of usage I intended, when compared with the Exploit or the Escapade, the Renegade Expat also had a more appropriate parts spec. I envisioned long rides in remote locations, as well as everyday utilitarian duties, so I put more value on simplicity and reliability rather than super-slick shifting or extra-powerful braking. Of course I still wanted things to work well, but I was happy with slightly more mid-range parts that are easier to fix on the side of the road if necessary.
This mid-range approach is typified by the brakes. The Expat comes with the well-regarded TRP-Spyre cable-actuated disc brakes, compared to the hydraulic brakes on the Exploit or Escapade. Hydraulic brakes are amazing, and far more powerful, but cables are easy to get your head around mechanically, and require no specialised tools. Well maintained hydraulic brakes are usually quite reliable, but anything may occasionally need adjustment. At the end of the day I didn't want to be mucking around getting brake fluid all over my hands somewhere out the back of Suggan Buggan.
Braking power is decent for a cable-actuated system, but occasionally I did find myself wishing for a little more. Happily, you can achieve this for not a lot of money by installing compressionless brake housing such as the Yokozuna Reaction system, something I plan to do when I next replace my bar tape. We've done this on a few bikes now, and the results are well worth it. The other thing I love about the TRP-Spyres is that you can use standard Shimano pads with them, one of the more ubiquitous in Australia, meaning you should be able to walk into most local bike shops and buy them on the spot.
Gear changes come courtesy of Shimano's Tiagra 10-speed groupset, and is impressive given its mid-tier status. Sure, Tiagra doesn't shift flaulessly under load like Ultegra might, but do you really need that on the supermarket run? For the most part the shifting was light, accurate, and more than good-enough to keep me happy. Also, 10-speed is a little more forgiving than 11-speed when it comes to tuning, again making it more approachable for your average home mechanic, as well as a little easier to troubleshoot on the road.
The rims are WTB i23's, which are laced to Formula cup-and-cone hubs. It's straighforward stuff, but they are sturdy enough to get the job done. I quickly became fond of the relatively wide rim width—23mm internal—which results in a wider profile for a given tyre compared to a narrower rim. A wider profile provides more grip, and allows you to run them at a lower pressure, which increases comfort. It works beautifully, and makes quite a difference to how a bike rides. If you wanted to upgrade something, though, the wheels could be a good place to start. A premium set would just add that bit of zest, and make a excellent bike…excellenter.
The other potential upgrade that jumps out for my intended use is the crankset. It's a basic FSA affair—nice and simple—with the ubiquitous 50-tooth big ring and a 34-tooth small ring. But despite the 'compact road' ratio, when combined with the stock 11-32 cassette, I feel that that it's geared too high for most long-distance, loaded riding. If you do a lot of unladen riding on sealed roads, or if you are a total beast (like our manager Stu, who actually did away with his lowest gears for his 50km+ daily commute) it will be just fine, but for bikepacking and touring purposes in particular, you will probably find yourself grinding in the smallest gear on a lot of hills, and wishing you had a couple more.
The first thing I did when I got the bike was swapped the cassette for an 11-34 (the maximum size compatible with the stock derailluer), and the 50-tooth chainring for a 46-tooth that I had lying around. The 46-tooth chainring I found to be a lot more useful, but I feel I could go down to a 44 with no problem, and I still pined for something smaller than a 34-tooth small ring on my longer, off-road ventures. Problem is, 34 is the smallest you'll fit on the crank, so I'll probably end up swapping the whole thing out for something else. If this is something you are interested in doing, you can always chat to one of our friendly staff and they can take you through the options.
So what is it good for?
I've talked about the Renegade Expat's handling, but what of its oft-mentioned versatility? Can you have one bike to rule them all? Well, kind of. I've owned my Renegade for nearly a year now, and here's what I've done on it so far.
When I commute on my Renegade Expat, it's usually with panniers, and the whole Renegade series has the necessary mounts for racks and mudguards. With 28mm slick tyres, it's a pleasingly fast rolling bike, however if you load up the panniers with heavy stuff, it does lose some stability. Due to its shortish chainstays, the weight tends to hang over the back wheel, which makes the front end 'fall over' a bit when cornering—not to the extent that it felt unsafe, but it was less stable than the Cross-Check, for example. But then again, the Renegade Expat is not a real hauler. If you want something that's super-stable with heavy panniers on board, get a Surly Disc Trucker, or a Kona Sutra, or a Fuji Touring. These bikes are all fantastically sturdy, but they are lumbering beasts by comparison.
Market shopping
A trip to the market for me involves hitching an Andersen Shopper to my Renegade Expat. The Andersen Shopper is almost unbelievably dorky, and makes me feel about twenty years older than I actually am, but it's one of the coolest bicycle products that I've ever used. It's basically your grandma's shopping trolley, but you can hitch it to the back of your bike, and it makes the weekly shop laughably easy. Ride, unhitch, fill with cucumbers and sourdough, hitch, ride, unhitch, wheel inside, unpack straight into fridge. The whole setup is magical, and the Renegade works perfectly as the engine of this grocery train.
Not-too-technical mountain bike trails
The Goldfields Track is Victoria's longest off-road bike trail. Some parts of it are very rough, and are best tackled on a dedicated mountain bike. The 60km section between Castlemaine and Bendigo is more forgiving, and in April I did it on my Renegade Expat, shod with 700X41mm Surly Knards. These are close to the maximum width you'll fit in a Renegade, and it was enough to tackle some steep and stony firetrails, plus plenty of single track in between.
This is my favourite application for the Renegade, not only because I love travelling by bike, but because the Renegade Expat seems particularly well-suited to it. Why?
It's really comfortable. The Renegade has a pretty long head tube, and the steerer tube pokes out a long way on top of that. This allows you to achieve a very relaxed riding position for all-day comfort, which is great for reducing fatigue on multi-day expeditions. I prefer a more aggressive position, which I've achieved by clamping the stem about half-way down the steerer. This gives a good balance, allowing me to lay down some power when I want to while still being comfortable enough for long days in the saddle. The ergonomics of the Shimano Tiagra shift/brake levers are excellent, providing a comfortable hand-hold on long rides, whilst the Ritchey handlebars offer a pleasing array of alternative positions. I feel like I can ride for days and days on my Renegade, and cover some distance while I'm at it.
It's also got a lot of water bottle mounts. As well as the usual two inside the main triangle, the Renegade has one underneath the downtube, as well as two more on the fork legs. The advantage of this isn't so much that you can carry five water bottles at a time (although you can do that), but that you can run a full frame bag (giving you more storage) and still carry three water bottles (enough for most trips) without messing around with hose clamps and electrical tape.
With a full bikepacking kit on board, the Renegade Expat still handles superbly, because the load is spread across the bike rather than hanging off the back like panniers. It continues to corner sharply, descend confidently and put a smile on my face. This, combined with the comfort, combined with a build kit that is well-tailored to this kind of riding makes the Renegade a real pleasure to take out into the countryside for a multi-day expedition, such as this four-day ride I did with a couple of work mates last year.
Final words
One bike to rule them all…swiss army knife on wheels…jack of all trades; these cliches are thrown around like confetti in the cycling world these days, but they wouldn't exist without a kernel of truth. The Jamis Renegade Expat does lend itself to a great many applications. What's more, it achieves this while providing a genuinely enjoyable ride. I'm all for bikes being utilitarian workhorses, but when you have to resign yourself to ponderous drudgery to achieve this, it's a sad day for everyone. I want my utilitarian workhorse to tickle my rowdy side. The answer for me is the Jamis Renegade Expat.

Notes from the Field—August 2018
Phoenixville, PA
With 94 Days to Go, Rising Up from the Ashes…
Nestled in the green rolling hills outside of Philadelphia is the town of Phoenixville — a village named after the mythical bird who rises up from the ashes. This Saturday morning it's not a bird, but the Democratic Party, that is on the rise.
These are the hills that stood witness to some of the most pivotal moments of the Revolutionary War, including Valley Forge. They are about to witness another important chapter in the ongoing journey of our Republic: the midterm elections of 2018.
Melissa Shusterman is running for House District 157 in Pennsylvania. Her headquarters is packed with friends and neighbors who have come to tear down the walls between us by knocking on doors. The canvass kickoff begins with remarks from Chrissy Houlahan, who is running for Congress in PA-6. I have the honor to introduce Melissa.
Melissa quickly brings up other candidates who are running in the area. Positive energy builds on positive energy. For all the candidates present, there is a lot more purpose than ego in this room. People all over this part of Pennsylvania are coming together. We are acting like a Party with a high sense of national purpose. They believe it, and I believe it: we are going to Win Back Pennsylvania and save our democracy.
The gender makeup of the room isn't lost on anyone. For several years now, Pennsylvania has been represented in Congress and statewide exclusively by men. All 18 congressional districts. No woman in the Commonwealth has ever been elected to the U.S. Senate or occupied the Governor's mansion. The gender shut-out changed with the state's primaries in May, when three Democratic women won their primaries in districts that Hillary Clinton won by big margins. But it could easily be more: Houlahan's district, PA-6, currently represented by Rep. Ryan Costello, is one of the most flippable districts in the country.
At the state house level, Democrats only need to flip 20 seats in order to free the Pennsylvania House from Republican control. And given the 10 to 15 point swing across the country in special elections, we just might do it.
Not long ago this state produced moderate Republicans like Tom Ridge, Dick Thornburg, and Arlen Specter. But those days are gone. Today, most Republicans in Pennsylvania's legislature have embraced Trump — some even claim to have been Trump before Trump. It's a strategy with significant risks: The last man who did so lost to Connor Lamb in a special election for Congress a few months back.
A new day is fast approaching. Lisa, a Chester County Democratic dynamo and activist, shouts out, "94 days to go!"
Anita, a volunteer in her mid-60s, pulls me aside to ask if our press will ever stop themselves from promoting the current President as entertainment. She wonders if the fairness doctrine might ever be restored to our political journalism. I wonder, too.
We travel to the town of Ambler in neighboring Montgomery County. On this muggy Saturday afternoon an even larger crowd has turned out to knock on doors for an all-female all-star slate of candidates. Madeleine Dean is running for Congress. Maria Collett, a lawyer and a registered nurse (how about that combo), is running for state senate. Her teammates running to flip two House seats are Liz Hambidge and Sara Johnson Rothman. These are strong women. And these are strong candidates. Woody Guthrie's, "This Land is Your Land" fills the air and the chorus builds with every verse. There are doors to be knocked and blessed now with song, these folks file out with walking lists and precinct maps.
Our final stop of the day is at the AFL-CIO headquarters in Montgomery County. My leadership PAC in partnership with the Montgomery County Democratic Party (thank you, Joe Foerster) has recruited 39 awesome young and old volunteers for a full day of campaign field training. We seem to have more candidates than organizers — it's a good problem to have. And the ranks of the willing are pretty deep if you tell them how and where they can help.
Since Donald Trump's inauguration, there have been about 100 special elections in state house and state senate districts all across America. Of those races, 50 resulted in no change in Party but the other 50 have — and of those, Democrats have flipped 44 from Republican to Democrat. I've been in 25 states over the course of the last year. I've campaigned now for more than 80 candidates. Most of them are winning. All of them are beating expectations. And the label they are all carrying door to door isn't "socialist," it's "Democrat."
Americans don't like crazy. They don't believe in putting babies in cages. And they don't take kindly to Russians meddling in our elections. Or elected officials who lie about it. The people of our country are looking to put the brakes on crazy. The brakes are labeled, "Democrat." People are looking to restore the American spirit of moderation — a spirit that seems under attack every day from the White House and the cartoon "news" networks that promote him.
Win Back Your State, Pennsylvania — and together we will save our democracy.
Vote this November 6th like your country's future depends on it.

Manufacturers of Quality Body Armour:
Established 1974
e: firstname.lastname@example.com
For over 20 years Armourshield has been one of a few body armour systems companies authorised in the UK to house its own ballistic testing range on site, thus allowing us to conduct independent research, product development and testing. This ensures that our research and development personnel design body armour systems which meet the toughest ballistic standards and allows us to sample test the products we manufacture. In 2004 a new highly improved range was constructed in Armourshields new premises allowing testing from both 5 metres (handgun testing) and 15 metres (rifle testing).
A sophisticated chronograph system measures bullet velocities and reports directly to a computer database of test results. The range is capable of testing to all current body armour standards, including HOSDB, NIJ and German SK.
The In-House testing laboratory is used for the following:
In 2009 we also installed a knife and spike testing rig. This rig is capable of the full range of stab and spike tests HOSDB / NIJ standards. As with the ballistic testing facility, all projectiles velocities are electronically recorded to ensure accuracy.

Dam safety hot topic in Vietnam Assembly's Q&A session
HA NOI (VNS)– The reservoir of quake-hit Tranh River Hydroelectricity Plant 2 in Quang Nam Province will stay empty until scientists have confirmed the dam's safety, the Minister of Construction Trinh Dinh Dung said this morning.
Human safety was the top concern and priority of the Government, he said during the Q&A session at the National Assembly today.
As part of the examination, international geologists from Russia, India and Japan would be invited to help evaluate the earthquake situation in the area.
Dung was responding to a question on the dam's safety from Deputy Ngo Van Minh, of central Quang Nam Province.
Minh had asked why the reservoir was left empty this year after an official announcement that the dam was technically safe and could deal with an earthquake magnitude of up to 5.5 on the Richter Scale.
"The decision had made local residents confused and worried," Minh said.
He called for a clear statement from the leader of the ministry directly in charge of construction quality.
In response, Construction Minister Dung said: "At present, the dam is safe enough for residents in surrounding areas to stay put."
So far, many earthquake and tremors had been recorded at the hydropower plant but their strength were less than magnitude 5.5 as estimated by the Institute of Geophysics.
Another hot issue in the Q&A session was the alleged misuse of more than VND10.6 trillion (US$509.6 million) by Song Da Group, a State-owned corporation under the ministry's management, which was uncovered last year by the Government Inspectorate.
Chief of Government Inspectors Huynh Phong Tranh yesterday said the group's violations were mainly related to capital management, lack of reserve fund and delay in paying tax.
Tranh said the ministry and the group were being constructive in fixing the violations but detailed responsibility of individuals or organizations had yet to be determined.
Responding to a question about bad debts in other State-owned construction groups, received from Deputy Le Nhu Tien, of central Quang Tri Province, Dung said many enterprises in the sector were facing difficulties, as were enterprises in other sectors.
The ministry was reviewing the bad debt situation and seeking solutions, which could include restructuring enterprises, developing key products and improving staff management.
The Q&A session is ongoing this afternoon with Health Minister Nguyen Thi Kim Tien and Governor of the State Bank of Viet Nam Nguyen Van Binh in the hot seat. – VNS

Chapter 7
Chapter 7 is a liquidation proceeding that involves selling assets to repay your creditors. Chapter 7 bankruptcy is a fairly quick proceeding with most cases taking less than six months. Therefore, if you need to make changes to your bankruptcy paperwork, it is best to do it as soon as possible. You must qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy by passing a means test. This test looks at your income and expenses each month, and if you have little to no remaining disposable income to repay your creditors for a Chapter 13 bankruptcy proceeding, you may be eligible to file for Chapter 7. Due to the fact that your income is an important factor in filing for Chapter 7, any change in income must be reported to your bankruptcy trustee as soon as possible.
Reasons for Amendments
Making changes to your bankruptcy paperwork after it is filed may be necessary for several reasons. For example, if you forgot to include a creditor in your bankruptcy schedule, you can file an amendment to add the creditor to your case. And, if your financial situation has changed since you filed for bankruptcy -- you may have been fired from a job or filed for divorce -- you need to notify the court of your changed circumstances.
To amend a Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition, complete an amendment form and submit it to the bankruptcy court clerk. You are required to sign the form under penalty of perjury, just like your bankruptcy petition. Each bankruptcy court may have a slightly different procedure for amending your paperwork, so it is best to contact the clerk's office to determine what the procedures are in your court. For example, some states, such as Wisconsin, charge an amendment fee to add creditors. And some bankruptcy courts may require you to complete a particular form to make changes.
All bankruptcy paperwork, including the petition and schedules, are signed under penalty of perjury. This means that if you knowingly omit information or intentionally lie on your paperwork, you can face consequences including the dismissal of your bankruptcy case or even jail time. If you think there is a mistake in any of the documents filed in your bankruptcy case, contact the court immediately to make the necessary changes.

Forty-four pitchers--four more than one year ago--are included along with four catchers, five infielders and four outfielders.
The four primary Independent leagues (American Association, Atlantic, Can-Am and Frontier) have given most of these players their opportunities although the smaller Pecos League and former circuits such as the Golden, Northern, North American and United continue to have players at this level.
Two unsigned veterans (infielder Stephen Drew and reliever Craig Breslow) could increase the total count and some major league organizations may add to their non-roster invitations. The modern day trend of bringing players up from minor league camps for one or more exhibition games will give still more Indy players exposure to the major league brass.
The list of onetime Independent players expected in the 30 camps, by position, with the major league team and where each person played in the Independent ranks:

RUMSON: The following is a press release from Monmouth County:
Since 6 a.m. Monday morning, around the clock work to repair bearings on the south side of the Oceanic Bridge (S-31) has been under way; the work has progressed on schedule and allows for the bridge to open Friday evening through Monday morning.
"This affords us the opportunity to open the Oceanic Bridge to traffic again this weekend, from Friday evening, June 5, through Sunday, June 7," said Freeholder Thomas A. Arnone, liaison to the Department of Public Works and Engineering. "Harms Construction has assured the County that opening the bridge this weekend will not delay the completion of the project, which is scheduled for next Friday, June 12."
Harms Construction Co. Inc. of Howell will resume work at 6 a.m. Monday, June 7 on the south side of the structure that spans the Navesink River and connects Rumson to Middletown. Harms crews will be working 24 hours a day, in two -12 hour shifts, to have the work completed by June 12.
The Oceanic Bridge has been closed to all but marine traffic since 6 a.m. Tuesday, May 26. For marine traffic, seasonal rules and scheduling are in effect.
"A previous Oceanic Bridge repair project revealed deterioration in two areas not readily or previously accessible," said Arnone. "Two of the bridge's four main bearings support the bascule and flanking spans on the bridge approaches."
Ettore explained that the nature of the repair work requires that the bridge load be relieved by lifting the bascule and approach spans off of each bearing and that the bearing work must be completed to maintain public safety and the use of the Oceanic Bridge.
"It is prudent to lift the bridge spans and perform the repairs to all four of the bearings," said Ettore. "The bearings in need of immediate repair are on the eastern side of the bridge, but the County is also going to repair the bearings on the western side of the bridge."
Freeholder Arnone and Senator Joseph Kyrillos have worked with local officials, business and educational interests to discuss the scheduling options for the necessary work. The post-Memorial Day closing for the three week repair project was the best of the scheduling options.
"The post-Memorial Day around-the-clock work schedule reflects a mid-June completion date," said Arnone.
The 2,712-foot drawbridge crosses the Navesink River and serves beach, commercial and residential traffic, as well as pedestrian and bicycle travel. It is also a key route for coastal evacuations and emergency vehicles headed to hospitals or providing mutual aid. The bridge has been classified as structurally deficient.
Built in 1939, the Oceanic Bridge has deteriorated due to decades of exposure to saltwater and from accommodating heavier vehicles and traffic volumes than for which it was designed.
In 2012, Monmouth County completed extensive work to rehabilitate the bridge's 100-foot, center bascule span, allowing motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians to continue use of the bridge.
Monmouth County received notification from the North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority (NJTPA) Board of Trustees in January that $600,000 in federal funding was available to perform a Concept Development Study for the replacement or rehabilitation of the Oceanic Bridge.
"As the years have gone on, maintaining this bridge has become more costly and difficult," said. Arnone, a NJTPA Board member. "This grant will allow us to look to the future and take steps toward building a better bridge, one that will stand up to the extreme coastal storms we'll face and serve our modern travel needs."
Monmouth County plans to replace the Oceanic Bridge in the next ten years.
