Last Updated on September 26, 2019 Minnetonka Moccasins is a shoe company I've been a fan of ever since I was a little girl. I'll never forget when my mom bought me my first pair of Minnetonka Moccasins…I was around 7 or 8 years old. She had taken me to a family-owned shoe store in Minocqua, Wisconsin just before school started, so I could pick out a pair for the new school year. I was so excited! I wore those… Read more »

"I'm Moving" (Again) Outfit

Clothes Worth Repeating
Last Updated on September 29, 2019 While I do my best to wear all the items in my wardrobe, there are few pieces I always find myself reaching for in the morning. This fun skirt and lovely top are two of those items. They're both incredibly easy to mix and match. I also love wearing them in hot weather (but it's easy enough to pair them with a cardigan for chillier weather). As you might have noticed too, these photos… Read more »
We're Moving Across the World…Again!
Last Updated on September 29, 2019 Yep, you read that title right. We are moving all the way across the world yet again! Don't worry, we're just as surprised as you. We really thought we were going to be calling Australia home for much longer than 6 months. But hey, no complaints here! We're all for new adventures. We actually just squared away the last of the details yesterday, so now I can say with certainty we are moving to… Read more »
The Outback Outfit
Last Updated on November 4, 2019 These are the only photos from my trip to the Australian Outback where you won't see me sweating profusely in crummy, old workout clothes. Haha. Most of my time in Uluru was spent being active, but for this night, I had a special candlelit dinner in the desert to go to (there'll be a separate post on that), and wearing my map skirt, once again, felt like the perfect occasion. (I love wearing this… Read more »
Map It Out
Last Updated on September 29, 2019 Shop the look: Over the years, I have really gotten quite good at purging things I don't wear…and keeping a rather small wardrobe (I swear! 2 suitcases right now – that's all), and literally only owning clothes and a few small mementos. Physical things just aren't as important as travel right now. However, with that being said, I REALLY wish I could collect maps, globes…and on a random note, coffee mugs. These are things… Read more »

As the advancement in technology is quickly changing our general surroundings, it is stressed on that it will supplant human intelligence in future. A few educators stress that there will be no understudies to educate as technology may assume control over a ton of assignments and capacities that we have been educating our students for a long time. But, the fact is: Education will never vanish. It will simply take up various structures. And one can witness these structures from now as various platforms are being developed to make education more accessible. Some of these platforms are receiving Education awards in return for their commitment to making education cheap and accessible. So here are some of the things that will change the face of education in future.
Students will learn with tools that will be automatically adjusted to their abilities. This implies that smarter students should be tested with harder errands and inquiries when a specific level is accomplished. Students who encounter troubles with a subject will get the chance to hone more to the point that they achieve the required level.
As professions are adjusting to the future freelance environment, students of future will adjust to project-based learning and work. This implies they need to figure out how to apply their abilities in shorter terms to an assortment of circumstances.
Learners will have more chances to learn at their own time and in better places. eLearning instruments encourage open doors for remote, self-guided learning. Classrooms will be smarter, which implies both the theoretical and practical aspects of learning will take place under the same roof.
Despite the fact that each subject that is taught goes for a similar goal, the street driving towards that goal can shift per student. So the students will have the capacity to alter their learning procedure with devices they feel are important for them. They will learn with various gadgets, diverse projects, and strategies in view of their own inclination
As courseware stages will evaluate students' capacities at each progression, estimating their abilities through Q&A may end up insignificant, or won't do the trick. Numerous contend that exams are presently outlined in such a way, that students mug up the materials, and overlook the next day. As the true knowledge of a student can be estimated amid their learning procedure, the utilization of their insight is best tried when they chip away at ventures in the field.
In 20 years, understudies will consolidate such a great amount of autonomy into their learning procedure, that coaching will end up essential to student achievement. Despite the fact that the eventual fate of education and training appears to be remote, the educators and the coaching organization are crucial to scholastic achievements.

text: After four days of strong gains dating back to last Friday, US indices took a break on Thursday to digest their recent action. Relative to the recent rally, however, declines were small ranging between 0.2% for the Dow to 0.8% for the NASDAQ a sign this is more of a pause than a correction. Cuts to the OECD's 2016 growth forecasts provided a headwind partially offset by better than expected US jobless claims. Traders responded positively to better than expected earnings out of Nvidia and Canadian Tire, also an encouraging sign. Crude oil also dropped back with much of the losses coming in a 20 minute period after DOE inventories were reported showing an increase in oil that contradicted a decline in the API inventory report and a bigger than expected rise in gasoline stockpiles. Rumours which circulated about the same time that Saudi Arabia said it won't cut production were also used as an excuse for a takedown. WTI quickly stabilized, however, holding above the $30.00 level, suggesting that this was a trading correction in an emerging uptrend. In my opinion, of course Saudi Arabia won't cut production yet, it's just agreed to freeze production and it's not that long ago they didn't even want to discuss the matter. The quick return of support indicates the street recognizes progress is likely to be slow but countries talking to each other at all is an improvement. Defensive capital flows picked up today with traders once again favouring gold and JPY as havens over USD and CHF. Gold had a particularly strong day on no news indicating that traders increasingly expect USD to come back down as expectations for a March Fed rate hike fade. Comments from St. Louis Fed President Bullard reflect the shift to a more neutral to dovish tone out of the Fed. He suggested it would be unwise to continue normalizing policy with inflation falling (which lowers the neutral interest rate anyway).having previously been among the more hawkish faction this suggests the Fed could be leaning to delay the next rate hike out beyond March. He also suggested that the Fed still has lots of tools available for stimulus including more QE before having to resort to negative interest rates (which suggests recent negative US rate talk has been more to put the threat out there in a bid to keep the other central banks in line than a serious policy option). On the other hand, San Francisco Fed President Williams suggested no reason to change course away from gradual rate hikes while keep options open with the usual data dependent mantra. On Friday Cleveland Fed President Mester, a known hawk and a voter this year, is speaking, we'll see if her tune has changed at all. There isn't any news scheduled for Asia Pacific countries today although the impact of the gold and copper rallies could have a positive influence on Australian miners while the JPY rally could cast a cloud over stock trading in Japan. Heading into the weekend, we could see a particular focus on trading in the UK, US and Canada. GBP finally started to bounce back on Thursday from its recent underperformance with the EU Brexit talks summit getting underway and continuing through Friday. EUR, meanwhile, continues to weaken following dovish FOMC minutes that suggested the central bank considered not even waiting for March to bring in additional stimulus. Friday's US consumer prices report may have an influence on Fed speculation trading since FOMC members have been indicating lately that the inflation outlook could impact the pace of interest rate increases. It will also be interesting to see how willing traders are to hold shares over the weekend ahead of the upcoming South Carolina and Nevada party presidential candidate votes. In Canada, retail sales may attract particular attention with traders looking for a January retrenchment from a big December. Weather was pretty good across the country last month though, so there's potential for a surprise. Sales may also give an indication of how consumers are responding to lower fuel prices and how the country's economic transition is proceeding.

Infiniti Aquaplanes Across Highway Median Smashing Into Accord And Model 3
Not a lot of things are worse than being hit by a car out of nowhere in a collision which you aren't to blame for. That's exactly what happened to a Honda Accord and Tesla Model 3 in Texas recently.
Dramatic dashcam footage captured the moment an Infiniti G37S slides out of control and slams into an Accord and Model 3, in a crash which could have easily been avoided.
The video shows the silver Infiniti start to aquaplane along the road. Unable to control the car, the driver is quickly turned into a passenger as the car slides across the grass median strip and directly into oncoming traffic. The Infiniti narrowly misses a Fiat 500 before smashing into the Accord, pushing the Honda into a Model 3 in the next lane. The Tesla's Autopilot system may be able to help it avoid some incidents, but it had no chance of preventing a hefty impact.
Also Read: First Tesla Model 3 Crash Outside North America Takes Place In Greece, Autopilot Reportedly Engaged
It's difficult to say for sure why the Infiniti slid out of control in the wet weather but we wouldn't be surprised to learn that speed played a factor. If not, it could have been due to driver error, an issue with the car itself or perhaps a problem with the tires. Whatever the case may be, crashes like this typically don't happen out of nowhere and can be avoided or else every car would be spearing off roads as soon as rain started falling.
Fortunately, it doesn't seem as though any of the occupants in the three cars involved were injured.

Son of Ambush Bug #1, July 1986, DC Comics
co-writer/penciller: Keith Griffen
co-writer: Robert Loren Fleming
inker: Bob Oksner
colorist: Anthony Tollin
letterer: Gasper
editor: Julius Schwartz
Yes, Son of Ambush Bug. Did you think I was joking?
I've never read an Ambush Bug adventure, and in fact, I've only ever heard of Ambush Bug when the character is referenced as an inside joke among well-read DC fans. (I think A.B. cameoed in JLA: Welcome to the Working Week, written by comedian and confessed geek Patton Oswalt, heretofore my only legitimate encounter with the hero in print.) Despite the character's laughable qualities, I didn't think Ambush Bug would be so self-depreciating, but with Giffen's name on the cover, I should've anticipated the bwah-ha-ha factor. So, did Ambush Bug die in Infinite Crisis? That is Giffen's legacy, right?
In Son of Ambush Bug #1, Ambush Bug laments his declining popularity as a comic book character – yes, he knows he's a comic book character – and just he assumes his life couldn't get much worse, a cosmic interloper dubbed the Interferer threatens to alter his continuity forever. Indeed, in this first issue alone, Ambush Bug is manga-ized and Kirby-fied, and his sidekick, the stuffed animal "toy wonder" Cheeks, is abandoned to a wartime comic, appropriately entitled Combat Cheeks. Obviously, Giffen is operating on a satirical level, and his genre-bending interludes stretch the bounds of his artistic skills and make for an eclectic read. In Justice League International, Giffen's outrageous story arcs were often anchored in reality by the nature of the hero's past continuities (although the introduction of Guy Gardner's comic book hero as a genuine supporting character pushed the limit), subject matter like Ambush Bug obviously opens the floodgates for Giffen's well-established cynicism.
At the same time, experiments in breaching the fourth wall of comics strike me as either too reserved or too over the top. In this case, I'm opting for the former; although Ambush Bug leaps from genre to genre, his acknowledgement of his two-dimensional existence doesn't really set him apart from his other panel-to-panel peers, sans his overwhelming depression regarding his apparently low sales. We'd never expect Superman to break that fourth wall and talk to his readers, but Ambush Bug can – if he knows he's a comic book character, why not curse his writer for condemning him to such an ill fate? Then again, if I remember correctly, She-Hulk played with these themes a bit back in the day, to no real avail. Like the Hulk family needs another level of dementia to make their characters compelling. I'm just saying, you can transplant the concept of comic book character with superhero – the connection to other genres with other timelines or parallel universes – and the story is just like another other kooky hero-down-on-his-luck fable. To establish and implement the balance between exploitation and exploration of the comic book as a world unto itself would be a very interesting and interactive reading experience.
In the meantime, Ambush Bug remains another forgotten son of the DC Universe. Unfortunately, in this issue, he's already accepted his fate, and aside from a few laughs, Giffen's efforts really don't offer us any reason why we shouldn't, either. I'm not holding my breath for All-Star Ambush Bug or Ambush Bug/The Heckler: Hard-Traveling Losers – but honestly, I wouldn't be disappointed, either. Then, at least one hero would've escaped the supposed Giffen curse. Or have I finally discovered the reason why DC opts to slaughter his pet projects? Did Paul Levitz dig up this issue, scoff at the satiric Interferer and all that he implies, and decide enough is enough?

Welcome to Week 16 of the 2018 MLB season and a new week of our investigation into the steepest power trenders in baseball, whether those trends are positive or negative.
As the season has already hit the All-Star Break, the window of opportunity to snag a surging slugger or to deal a down-and-out disappointment grows shorter with every plate appearance. Getting the jump on identifying the catalytic variables and telling trends in these player's recent offensive performances could be the key factor in the management of your roster in the summer months.
To do this, we'll be taking a look at the batting metrics that influence a hitter's power (Fly-Ball%, Pull%, Hard-Hit%, Exit Velocity) and determining whether you should buy or sell respectively on these surgers and strugglers. Since it's always best to wait and trudge through with the power play from players like Bryce Harper, Charlie Blackmon, Joey Votto, and Mookie Betts, we are going to be focusing on players who have seen a change in their power profile due to a change in batting metrics and has either warranted greater attention for waiver wire pickups or for a potential trade to cash in on what's left before it's too late.Editor's Note: Get any full-season MLB Premium Pass for 50% off, with exclusive access to our season-long articles, 15 in-season lineup tools and over 200 days of expert DFS research/tools.

Power Risers
Kole Calhoun - (OF, LAA)
Kole Calhoun got off to a horrible start to the year. After consecutive months with OPS of .418 and .314 with just one total homer in 185 AB, he steadily found a more Calhounesque groove and produced a slash line of .243/.310/.432 and smacked two HR in June. However, since July has begun, it's been a whole new story entirely. In his 47 AB through this month he has a fantastic slash line of .298/.327/.745 and has already notched six dingers. Kole Calhoun could typically be counted on for anywhere from 17-26 HR in a season since 2014, and while his last month of play brought him to a great striking distance for that range, he had to start hitting for power at a fervent pace to get there. So what changed for Calhoun since his ugly start to the year?
The two most notable changes that are indicative of his recent play is the shift in batted ball contact and GB/FB ratio. While Calhoun has been able to keep his monthly soft contact rates consistent by ranging from 10.8% to 16.7% through the year's first half and even produced a nice hard contact rate (39.1%) in April, that rate dropped to 30.7% in May. Since then, through June and July, he has produced hard contact rates of 46.7% and 40.5% on his way to ISO of .189 and .447. Most importantly, Calhoun posted GB/FB ratios of 2.29 and 1.79 through the season's first two months and was hitting grounders about 55% of the time. Through June and July, Calhoun has started taking to the air with much greater frequency as demonstrated by his 0.85 and 0.78 GB/FB ratios and a 48.6% fly ball rate for July.
His average exit velocity of 89 mph is very slightly above league average on the year and his average HR has been belted for a distance of 410 feet. This major power recovery added to the fact that Calhoun has already grabbed four steals after never taking more than five in a full season makes the rate that he has been getting added by Fantasy Baseball Managers justified, and we should see him back to his old self and possibly better than ever after the All-Star Break.
Carlos Gonzalez - (OF, COL)
Carlos Gonzalez has been heating up ever so steadily every month since the 2018 season began. Though he posted just seven HR through the first three months combined, he posted consecutive OPS of .709, .728, and .812 and has gotten red hot for July in Colorado with a slash line of .341/.396/.682 and four yard balls in 44 AB. Now, despite CarGo's encouraging offensive play, there are a few very concerning factors regarding his projections for the remaining months. First off is that he is hitting for a soft contact rate of 21.4%. If that rate remains, 2018 will mark the third season in a row where Gonzalez has produced soft contact at a greater frequency than 20%. This is in conjunction with his paltry 33.2% hard contact rate, a 33.2% pull rate that sits far below his career average, and a ground ball percentage of 50.3% which currently stands as his highest yet, though he has still managed an ISO of .198.
Luckily, indications seem to be that Carlos Gonzalez has slowly shaken off the cobwebs. While he usually strikes out more than 20% of the time, he has only been getting K'd 14.6% of the time for July, he has started to produce soft contact at a sub-20% level over the last two months of play, and lowered his GB/FB ratio to 1.27 with a 40.5% fly ball rate while increasing his hard contact rate to 37.8%. While several of his peripherals such as pull rate have continued to hop back in forth, consecutive months of improved play at the play is an optimistic sign. It always helps when someone's home turf is Coors Field, and CarGo has demonstrated more than enough pop to take full advantage of the Rocky Mountain climate with a 90.2 mph average exit velocity and average HR distance of 427 feet. Like Kole Calhoun, Gonzalez has also seen a recent uptick in stolen bases grabbed as well. Though it is nowhere near his 20+ steals pace from previous seasons, the possibility of him being close to 20 dingers and maybe eight to ten steals adds plenty of value down the road for a player in the batting order of a top-ten run scoring offense.
Stephen Piscotty - (OF, OAK)
Stephen Piscotty hit just three HR through the first 172 AB of 2018 and even produced an unsightly OPS of .509 in May. Since the end of May however, few players in baseball have been revving up like he has with a combined nine HR through June and July and five dingers with a slash line of .310/.341/.714 over his last 42 AB alone. On the optimistic side, Piscotty has posted three straight months of hard contact rates over 40%, and was even able to produce a rate of 46.4% through his woeful month of May. He has also kept soft contact relatively infrequent with a season average of 13.9% and has produced solid pull rates of 43.1% and 44.7% over the last two months.
On the slightly more hesitant side, Piscotty hits a lot of line drives (23.7% on the year) and has yet to produce a GB/FB ratio of less than 1.00 for a given month. In fact, his fly ball rates have decreased to 33.3% and 31.6% over June and July. Despite the nine homers he hit in those months, that flyer rate is still concerning. Line drives are better than ground balls for HR hitting, but they are obviously more primed for well-rounded offensive production in contrast to an influx of power hitting. His ISO of .193 on the year is nice, but his average exit velocity of 88.4 mph and average HR distance of 385 feet seem to indicate that Piscotty doesn't posses any elite or burgeoning power, and Oakland is typically a pitcher-friendly place to play. We've seen what he produces when he is batting well, and it is likely that 20-25 HR in combination with a solid BA/OBP and no particular talent for base running could be his hard cap. Though that still has quite some value in the A's top-ten run-scoring offense.
C.J. Cron - (1B, TB)
C.J. Cron was already close to his career-high amount of AB for a season at 2018's halfway point, and he has certainly made the most of it during his first season with Tampa Bay. He hit for 12 combined homers through April and May and produced OPS of .832 and .805. Even though he limped through June with a .130/.244/.299 slash line, he was still able to club four HR, and most recently he has been explosive with a 1.247 OPS and three long balls over just the last 35 AB, ultimately giving him an ISO of .223 on the year. Many other signs seem to point towards more great things to come from Cron in the second half of the season. He has maintained a solid pull rate of 45% and his hard contact rate of 37.5%, along with his ISO, currently stands as his best career mark yet. While his exit velocity of 88.2 mph may be a bit inconspicuous, his 406 foot average HR distance is solid and yet, doesn't even tell the full story on some of C.J.'s monstrous mile-long bombs.
On the other hand, Cron hits for a lot of soft contact. His rate for this season is currently at 20.8%, and this would mark the fourth consecutive season of soft contact above 20% for him. His fly ball rate has also been lower this year (37.1%) than in years passed, which subsequently explains his career-high HR/FB ratio of 21.3%. C.J. has also been striking out way more this year with a 26.3% rate, though the good news that ties all of these questionable peripherals up is that his numbers for the year are largely swayed by his skid through June. For instance, in June he hit for 49% ground balls, struck out 36.7% of the time, and hit for soft and hard contact of 26.7% and 28.9%. C.J. Cron is currently tied for 14th in total HR among American League players, and Cron packs a well-rounded offensive package. Forget his month of June, we know that players go through slumps, it doesn't mean abandon ship. Count on Cron to continue to belt it for a Rays squad that is nearly a top-five run scoring offense since the start of July.
Power Fallers
Matt Kemp - (OF, LAD)
Matt Kemp may have reached his career plateau in 2011, but in a year of resurgent seasons he has already hit 15 HR for the Dodgers and currently has an OPS of .874 which would be his highest in six years. Though he has stumbled a bit in the last two weeks of play with a .576 OPS and zero XBH, the only cause for concern for the 33-year old former MVP candidate seems to be some power peripherals that are all over the board at times. His strikeout rate has remained relatively constant, but still relatively high at 22.8%. So far in July Kemp has only been able to create fly balls at a 22.2% rate en route to a stagnant 1.88 GB/FB ratio which has so far put his fantastic 52.8% hard contact rate for the month to poor use.
Luckily, that seems to make up a big part of the explanation for Kemp's recent power outage. While he has had a one or two poor months for each peripheral in question, his hard contact for the season currently stands at 44.7% while his soft contact remains well under control at 13.6%. This has helped Kemp tremendously on his way to a .212 ISO, 90.6 mph average exit velocity, and average HR distance of 406 feet. After managing a pull rate of just 32.1% in April, his pull rate has gone up every month since from 47.5%, to 50.9%, and finally 52.8% for a 45.6% average for the first half. Proceed with confidence with Matt Kemp through the end of 2018. His power and quality of contact on batted balls has made him a power threat and well-rounded offensive threat yet again, and he could quite possibly be well on his way to 25+ HR by season's end (not to mention the NL batting title?). That means a whole lot of offensive production coming to a player in the Dodgers batting order who just added Manny Machado to an already potent offensive mix.
Eddie Rosario - (OF, MIN)
After his breakout, 27 HR season with the Twins last season, Eddie Rosario looks like he's well on his way to recreating his 2017 success and much more in his age 26 season. He has only hit one dinger with a .417 slugging percentage over the last two weeks of play (48 AB) and had a bit of a pedestrian start to the first month of the season with three HR and a .231/.263/.396 slash line, but in May and June he was borderline unstoppable. In the 220 AB through those two months he hit 15 total bombs and produced OPS of 1.004 and 1.084. So what will Rosie have to do to get back on his rampant offensive pace from May and June?
Rosario's soft contact rate of 16.4% is the lowest of his young career by a slim margin, while his hard contact rate of 38.7% is his career-high mark by a whopping 7% margin. Rosario has also seen big improvements in such areas as pull rate where his rate of 42.6% sits three percentage points above his career norm, while his fly ball rate has improved by 8% completely at the expense of his grounder frequency which decreased from 42.4% last season to 32.3% in 2018. For both of his months of struggle (April and July) Rosario has struck out 22.9% and 24.3% of the time in contrast to his sub-15% marks from May and June. His individual hard contact rates for the months of April and July also sat at 34.3% and 37.5%, both of which are serviceable and above his career average, but are sit below the 40%+ hard contact rates he produced during his elite two month stretch in May and June. Rosario has also been hitting for way too high of a mark for soft contact so far in July with a 27.1% rate. Additionally, despite a sub-1.00 ISO so far in July (.062), he still holds an ISO of .226 on the year.
Clearly it has been a tale of two pairs of months for Rosario's season. He looks well on the path to surpassing his HR total from last year and once again reaching double-digit stolen bases with the aid of improved base running efficiency (53% SB success rate in 2017 as opposed to 75% so far in 2018). His average exit velocity (89 mph) and average HR distance (379 feet) don't particularly leap off the page, but that's quite alright if Rosario continues to make new strides in his offensive approach. It is a little scary though when a player's performance can deviate so heavily from one month to the next who you count on for star-level fire power. Luckily it seems to be just a few catalytic peripherals that cause his struggles during a given month, and hopefully the All-Star will freshen Rosario up back to his May/June standards. Who knows, maybe next year his fantastic play will actually be rewarded with an All-Star selection?
Andrew McCutchen - (OF, SF)
Though there is nothing ugly about Andrew McCutchen's nine HR, eight SB, and slash line of .261/.352/.412 through 352 AB for San Francisco, the 31-year-old former MVP is currently on pace for the worst offensive season of his career. He has also struggled lately in particular with just one homer and a .680 OPS over his last 80 AB. The only apparent reason for McCutchen's recent skid is the increase of soft contact on batted balls as well as his difference in GB/FB ratio. While he was able to keep his soft contact to 8.3% and 14.1% for his first two months as a Giant, he has since produced monthly percentages of 20% and 17.5%. Though on the positive side, it has mostly come at the expense of his medium contact. In fact, McCutchen's monthly hard contact rates of 50%, 47.9%, 45.9%, and 40%, have remained quite impressive. Though from a more pessimistic perspective, it is a little concerning that they have decreased every month on his way to a .151 ISO that is well below his career norm. In terms of GB/FB tendencies, McCutchen was largely able to keep his ratio below 1.00 but has been hitting nothing but dirt so far in July and has produced a 1.90 GB/FB ratio on a mere 25% fly balls. That in addition to an increase in soft contact and waning hard contact won't create a lot of HR in pitcher-friendly San Francisco.
Andrew McCutchen's consistently impressive hard contact and 90.5 mph average exit velocity seem to indicate that he is getting a good rip at batted balls, which is a huge plus when considering that he has lowered his strikeout frequency in his tough month of July. The five-time All-Star also looks poised to grab more stolen bases by season's end than he has in a season since 2014. His six dinger month of June demonstrates the kind of pace he could carry if he was performing to his usual standards, and this is likely a slump that will soon subside and at least produce a hand full of homers in the coming month. Though you may have hoped for more than 15-17 HR and 10-12 SB from Cutch this season as a fantasy baseball manager, this is likely what he will end the season with, but his ceiling of performance is high and he could well explode and find his way to 20+ HR when the dust settles.
Ian Kinsler - (2B, LAA)
Despite a poor BA and OBP combo of .219/.270, Ian Kinsler's eight HR June after a rough start through the first two months of the season made it appear as if he was on his way out of the offensive hole he had dug himself into. Yet when July rolled around, his early struggles returned and Kinsler went on to produce a slash of .227/.277/.227 with a fat goose egg in the HR department through 44 AB. The good news seems to be that everything other than Kinsler's batted ball contact quality seems to be in order: his pull rate has remained consistent and sits at 42.8%, he has produced fly balls at a solid rate and his GB/FB ratio for the season sits at 0.87, and his strikeout rate has been superb at just 9.6% on the year.
The bad news is that his batted ball contact quality has looked quite mediocre through the majority of the 2018 campaign. He has only had one month with a soft contact rate below 19.6%, one month above 30% hard contact, and the only month in which he produced an ISO above .139 was his eight HR stretch in June. His average HR distance of 392 feet isn't too shabby, but his average exit velocity of 85.4 mph is quite shabby indeed. His weak contact on batted balls has caused damage to Kinsler's overall offensive production and while he could possibly reach his 22 HR and 14 SB from last year, he has left little indication that he is getting ready to warm up to his level of play from June anytime soon.

The gear located in commercial kitchens is an vital (and very expensive) component of a successful restaurant.
Every commercial kitchen with its unique menu will select the gear that can help it meet its preparing food and cooking needs. The gear accustomed to cook food off a straightforward brunch menu will appear completely different to the complex gadgets utilized in restaurants specializing in molecular gastronomy.
With so much different kitchen equipment available, commercial kitchens could be challenging places for back of house newbies – particularly those who're operating their in place the kitchen hierarchy with no commercial cookery education. That's why we've come up with this informative guide to assist you familiarize yourself with some of the equipment you're more likely to encounter whenever you land that back of house job.
Cooking equipment
A range is perhaps the most essential piece of equipment in a commercial kitchen. You'd be difficult pushed to find a kitchen without one! A range combines a range with an oven, to be able to cook food concurrently in a number of ways. This consists of boiling, frying, pan-searing, baking, broiling and roasting. A small venue may possibly need a range with two burners while a high-volume venue could use a variety with up to 12 burners, preparing a variety of dishes at once.
Food preparation equipment
Food processors have compatible rotor blades that accelerate the process of repetitive preparing food duties, particularly chopping and grinding. Special vegetable prep models have a chute by which veggies are fed for chopping, shredding, grating or julienning.
Blenders can be used for emulsifying and liquefying, which makes them well suited for making sauces, soups and smoothies.
Kneading dough, making cake batter, whipping eggs or preparing cake icing…? A mixer will probably be your closest friend, not waste time and potential RSI injuries. Furthermore, stick mixers (or immersion blenders) are smaller, hand-held mixers that provide mixing sauces, soups and stews within the storage containers where the food is being prepared. Some models have a whisk attachment as well.
Slicers are mainly accustomed to cut meats and cheeses (but additionally a number of other foods) into thin, uniform slices for perfecting presentation. They may be by hand or instantly operated and may even cut frozen foods. Its relative, the mandoline slicer, is used for cutting fruits and vegetables.

Washington's Blog
May 7, 2011
CNN Money points out:
Just 22% believe the country is on the right track, Rasmussen tells us. According to a new Gallup poll, more than half of us say the economy is in recession or depression, despite the fact that output has been expanding since the summer of 2009. In fact, more of us (29%) say the country is in a depression than say the economy is growing (27%).
There's a good reason for this: As inflation surges at the store and the gas pump, the economy is stalling. And the heart of the problem could very well be the Federal Reserve's $600 billion "QE2" money-printing initiative, which was implemented last November to great fanfare on Wall Street and is set to end in June.
Yes, the stock market has posted impressive gains since the idea of QE2 surfaced….
But stock ownership is concentrated among the wealthy: On average, just 12% of households worth $100,000 or less own stocks and mutual fund shares outside their retirement plans — a group that comprises 74% of the total population. While many more own shares through 401ks and IRAs, they're not in a position to easily tap that wealth for current spending.
At the same time, QE2 has pushed up borrowing costs, pressing down the prices of homes — a much more widely held asset. The Case-Shiller Home Price Index started falling last summer as the idea of QE2 was floated, and it hasn't stopped since. The broad 20-city index now sits below 2009 levels.
This is a continuation of trends that have been in place since the recession ended in 2009. According to Credit Suisse equity strategist Douglas Cliggott, it suggests the improvement in net worth during the past two and half years "has been heavily skewed towards that relatively small part of the U.S. population that has significant equity holdings."
While the program has helped push up the cost of living for all of us — sending inflation into the red zone and damaging consumer confidence — evidence suggests its benefits have accrued only to the top tier of the net-worth ladder.
In other words, the Fed's "stimulus" has made the rich richer, with limited impact in terms of new spending. It's made the vast majority of people poorer, and less able to spend. It's this tradeoff that threatens to snuff out the feeble, three-year-old economic recovery.
And salaries have only gone up for the very top. AP notes:
CEOs at the nation's largest companies were paid better last year than they were in 2007, when the economy was booming, the stock market set a record high and unemployment was roughly half what it is today.
Indeed, the government's policies have been geared towards redistributing wealth upwards. See this, this, this, this, this and this.

- LUCAS administers two discovery modules for first-year undergraduates – one through the Faculty of Arts and one through the School of Politics and International Studies. These are interdisciplinary modules and provide an introduction for students who may choose later to study more specialised aspects of Africa.
FOAR1100 Creative Africas: Culture and the Arts in Modern Africa
Creative Africas (FOAR1100) provides a unique multidisciplinary introduction to Africa's arts – art, literature, theatre, music, and film – in the past and present. It will discuss how these are both distinctive and diverse, and linked to global trends. The module sets artistic output in its cultural context, with the arts being contextualised by lectures on African history, ethnography and ritual, and representations of Africa in western media. The core of the module focuses on specific themes, including gender and the arts; theatre for development; and film and Africa. It culminates with a group of lectures on southern Africa, focusing on literature and art, so that broad themes are grounded within one particular region. The module is taught through lectures, tutorials and film screenings, and is assessed though two essays.
This discovery module runs in the first semester of the academic year.
Each week, you will attend a one hour lecture and a one hour seminar, and in one week there will be film screening.
One of our LUCAS team of Africanist lecturers will give each lecture. African PhD students, or African early career researchers, at the University of Leeds direct the subsequent seminars.
We assess your learning through two pieces of coursework, both essays of 2,000 and 3,000 words respectively.
PIED1806 Contemporary Africas: Politics, Society and the Environment
What issues concern Africans in relation to political and social development? What factors shape African identities? What impact did colonialism and the West have on Africa? Are women oppressed in Africa? Is Africa 'rising'? This module will focus on postcolonial Africa's environment, history, politics and society. It is intended to be an introductory course for students interested in, but not necessarily particularly knowledgeable about, issues in contemporary African societies. By the end of the module students will have an understanding of a range of key issues relevant to the creation of contemporary societies in Africa. The module will begin with an overview of the recent history of the continent, and will move on to consider key topics such as climatic and ecological change, development, health, politics, gender and theology. In order to help nurture understanding of the range of African societies there will be a certain number of classes focusing on case studies from particular countries such as Egypt and South Africa
This discovery module runs in the second semester of the academic year.
Each week, you will attend a one hour lecture and a one hour seminar — and there are three workshops alongside these throughout the semester.

Superb 9.0 From 387 reviews
Perfect location. Across the street from Raffles! Wonderful staff. New, modern , trendy hip vibe. Would stay again in a heartbeat. Rooftop bar and swimming pool adorable
my expectations during my stay at Naumi Hotel was beyond of what I was expecting! everything went perfect. Staff were very friendly and helpful, especially Jason. he assisted me throughout the stay. very approachable and kind. all the amenities worked well. they even had an apple TV! made my stay worth while. the view from my room was beautiful. the infinity pool was clean and refreshing. the hotel is ultimately 5 star for me, the price was sufficient and affordable. this is the best place to relax after a long day touring beautiful singapore. if you want more from a hotel in singapore, this small, luxury hotel will meet all your needs and expectations. good for couples or solo travelers like me, who like chic, and a small space. wishing more hotels like this. will definitely come back!
We loved our stay at Naumi. Our room was on the small side, but everything in it was well laid out and so modern and clean. All the refreshments (snacks and drinks) were complementary and we had robes, coffee, and free water. There were also 4 types of free tea in the lobby daily. The best part was the service and how much time the hotel clerks spent giving us directions, recommending restaurants, and making reservations for us. Rooftop pool and bar were also very nice. Would give it more than 5 stars if I could!
Excellent service. Clean. Free drinks at the mini bar (which I never really heard of anywhere). Good job!!
Very chic, clean and modern. Super friendly staff. Great location! Would highly recommend!
Loved the friendly and attentive staff. Location was great and easy to get around. Room was spacious and comfortable. I highly recommend this property.
Check in service was very personal and prompt. Room was pretty spacious
Naumi is a wonder boutique hotel. The rooms use their space incredibly well with the drink shelf pulling out of the wall and all the under-bed space used. This creative use of space gives the room an open and airy feeling. The front desk team is incredibly attentive and stored my luggage on a very arrival arrival and late departure. They make you feel welcome and loved in your home-away-from-home. When I return to Singapore, I can't wait to return to this property!
Great service, big clean modern room
Great location - close to City Hall MRT. Also, customer service at front desk was amazing. Main drawback was lack of parking at the hotel (hard to even get dropped off by a taxi or check in) and also the hours the pool are very limited (closes at 6pm).

Voith showcases the newest developments for the commercial vehicles industry at IAA 2018
- Voith reveals the new electrical drive system for buses. Visitors can test drive the demonstrator bus as part of the e-parkour
- A model of the new DIWA NXT, that offers a mild-hybrid option and an additional overdrive, will be presented at the booth
- Voith displays its wide portfolio of components, that make operation and service more beneficial and efficient for customers
- Predictive monitoring and digital applications increase vehicle availability and ensure economical operation
Innovative electrical drive system for more economical bus operation
With the development of a unique and fully electrical system Voith enters the growing market for e-mobility. The electrical drive system is a well-balanced system that impresses with low weight and maximized efficiency, rounded off with an intelligent energy management system. The first prototype was installed in a Solaris Urbino electric, but the Voith system can be easily integrated into vehicles from other manufacturers without restrictions. Further, it offers outstanding driving performance with a torque of 2,250 Newton meters and an output of 260 Kilowatts. The system will be displayed at the "IAA Test-Drives with Electrically Powered Commercial Vehicles".
Voith stays on track with the development of its new DIWA NXT transmission that remains the number one choice for city buses. The DIWA NXT features an optional mild-hybrid system with a 48V central recuperation unit (CRU). In addition, the new transmission perfectly meets the needs of the inter-city and coach segment by providing an additional overdrive gear. First vehicle measurements confirm passenger comfort and the outstanding efficiency. A first sample of the new DIWA NXT transmission will be displayed at the Voith booth.
Already today, the successful DIWA.6 automatic transmission from Voith offers an additional Stop-Start functionality so that bus operators can increase the profitability of their vehicles while also providing added value for the environment. More than 1,500 buses have been fitted with DIWA.6 Stop-Start technology, providing daily proof of its reliability and usefulness. Depending on the duty cycle, this enables fuel savings of up to 12 percent.
The Voith ECO-SWR (secondary water retarder) is disconnectable during idling and uses water to brake. It is designed for buses as well as trucks and uses the engine coolant as its operating medium. In this way, the ECO-SWR handles up to 90 percent of all vehicle braking wear-free.
The Voith Retarder 115 CT is the latest Voith off-line oil retarder reflecting more than 40 years of engineering experience. It allows wear-free continuous braking in trucks with the optimum braking effect at low and high speed. The VR 115 CT features an integrated step-up gear and an autarkic oil supply system, leading to maximum safety in any driving situation.
The Turbo Retarder Clutch VIAB is a complete start-up and braking system. It uses a fill-regulated, hydrodynamic fluid coupling as the main component. Based on its principle the system is completely wear-free and is ready for loads up to 250 metric tons. Visitors at IAA will have the chance to test-drive trucks equipped with VIAB at the test track.
Unique service solutions for buses
SmartMaintenance enables a more efficient operation for bus operators as well as optimized vehicle maintenance. It regularly monitors the condition of the automatic transmission, reducing unplanned service-related downtimes, increasing vehicle availability, and enabling improved and foresighted maintenance planning. Hereunto the vehicle data is transmitted to Voith servers where it is evaluated with state-of-the-art technology. Based on SmartMaintenance, Voith also offers cost-effective, tailored service contracts with individual warranties, uptime guarantees, and short reaction times. This results in maximum fleet availability and optimized workshop planning.
Energy efficiency, less emissions as well as enhanced safety
The OnEfficiency solutions by Voith increase fuel efficiency on the one hand by technical enablement based on advanced configuration of the transmission and on the other hand by people enablement based on motivating the driver to improve his driving behavior and to provide real time information about driving style.
The new OnEfficiency.SmartAccelerate is a software configuration update for the DIWA transmission which increases the embedded intelligence in city buses, offering operational optimization without the need for any specific training for drivers. The system aims to significantly and sustainably reduce fuel consumption of buses. Furthermore, it combines the signals acquired from existing sensors in Voith's automatic transmission system with information from the CAN network to interact with the driver's commands and the vehicle's dynamic behavior. This mobility software solution takes current technologies to the next level in terms of CO2 emission cutbacks without the need for significantly more expensive and complex solutions.
OnEfficiency.DriverAssist aims to motivate the driver to improve driving behavior, while enabling fleet managers to run a more efficient operation. Utilizing Voith's domain knowledge in drive technology and local public transport, this solution provides the driver with real time information about driving style. Furthermore, it helps to keep the driver engaged and motivated, and thus reduces fuel consumption in the short and long term. Unlike existing advisory systems OnEfficiency.DriverAssist is a comprehensive platform that provides transparent and easily implementable insights about how to increase fuel efficiency.

Madhubani paintings originated in a small village, Maithili, in the Madhubani district of the Bihar state of India, hence this form of art is also known as Mithila Art. It is traditionally practiced by the women of the Mithila region communities of India and Nepal. The themes of Madhubani paintings cover a host of celebratory occasions such as festivals, births and marriages. The artwork is characterized by its eye-catching patterns created using natural dyes and pigments and usually painted with finger, twigs, brushes, matchsticks etc.
History and Origin:
Madhubani paintings originated as a folk art around 2500 years ago but are still very much in vogue owing to its highly relevant themes to the modern times. In addition to reflecting the era of origin as well as the years that followed, Madhubani paintings have also been part of forest saving crusades and current women's issues.
It's a form of wall and floor art created by women in their freshly plastered homes to mark special occasions. The paintings depict man's relationship with nature, spiritual scenes from ancient mythology and holy plants like Tulsi. The painting skills are passed on from generation to generation mostly by women in the family. Institutions spread across Mithila region, Kalakriti in Darbhanga, Vaidehi in Madhubani, Benipatti in Madhubani district and Gram Vikas Parishad in Ranti are some of the major centers of Madhubani painting which have kept this ancient art form alive.
Madhubani paintings are made from a paste of powdered rice, which is used to create the outline and framework. Earlier there used to be have five distinct styles that were created by women from specific castes, i.e., Bharni, Katchni, Tantrik, Godna and Kohbar. Weddings and religious ceremonies and cultural festivals are popular scenes in these paintings.
The artwork uses two dimensional imagery and there is almost no empty space in the paintings as the gaps and borders are filled by depictions of flowers, birds, animals, the sun and moon. Even geometrical patterns are used to illustrate love, devotion and prosperity. The colors used are bright and are derived from ochre clay, lampblack, and plants such as turmeric extract for yellow, sandalwood for red and indigo for blue. The figures in the paintings are made distinctive by their prominent outlines, bulging eyes and pointed noses.
Then and Now:
Madhubani has become a global art form over the years and hence, there are no more limitations in the styles being practiced by specific castes. All five styles are created without the basis of caste system.
The painting surfaces have transitioned from walls and floors to cloth, handmade paper and canvas but the use of fingers, twigs, pen nibs and matchsticks to draw is still in continuation.
Though the skills have passed through the generations, the themes and styles have remained consistent through the ages. Nowadays artists are using this medium to empower and make women aware by portraying current issues such as education and eve-teasing. In 2012, over a 100 trees were saved from being cut down by covering them with Madhubani paintings and spreading awareness among the public about pollution and global warming.
Madhubani artwork has moved beyond canvases onto everyday items like bags, cushion covers, crockery etc. and has found a popular international market among art lovers.
In April 2018, the Madhubani railway station has been given a complete makeover using traditional Mithila artwork by the local artists. Over 225 artists, a majority of them women, completed the 14,000 s. ft. wall project free of cost over a span of two months.
This is a unique and highly creative initiative by the Indian Railways and should be adopted in the rest of the country. Public places such as zoos, bus/railway stations and roadway features such as flyovers and dividers should be decorated with the relevant local art. Through this practice, the local artwork and craftsmen get a boost along with keeping our beautiful culture alive and kicking!

NOTES FROM THE 3RD RAIL: Civilization in the Crosshairs
By Marcus Clintonius Americus
History draws anything but a straight line from the Athenian cradle of democracy and birth of rationalism to the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights. Civilization exists at the whim of both nature and human folly, constantly tested by barbarians at the gates and moral corrosion from within.
"Notes From the 3rd Rail: Civilization in the Crosshairs" is a tumescent middle-finger to political correctness. Sacred cows are cut down like sacrificial lambs, one by one: feminism, multi-culturalism, Black Lives Matter, and domestic violence tropes.
Skewering political correctness comes naturally to Marcus Clintonius Americus—he should know, he's been doing it for 2,000 years according to his "bio"—in Latin, no less!
Highlighted by his "Self-Othering" thesis as the root cause of political correctness, followed by a tour-de-force, line-by-line rebuttal of President Obama's "Why I don't say 'radical Islam'" speech, Marcus Clintonius cuts a blistering path through the Left's landscape of lunacy.
Collected in this book are a dozen essays addressing some of the darkest forces that threaten the West today: feminism, political correctness, the War on Fatherhood, radical Islam and racial politics, all emanating from the wellspring of cultural suicide: the college campus.

Rum Flavored Cream of White Bean Soup with Crispy Onions
By Chef Trev
3 bottles pre-cooked white beans
4 LG yellow onions (normal sliced)
2 LG yellow onions (sliced very thin)
3 cloves garlic (chopped)
1-bunch chives (sliced)
1 bay leaf
1 tsp dried or fresh thyme (chopped)
1 tsp cumin powder
1 cup Goslings Black Seal Rum
1 lime (zest & juice)
2 liters vegetable or chicken stock/broth
1 tbs sugar
AP flour
Salt & pepper
Vegetable oil
*Note: you will need a large juice blender or hand blender
In a large stew pot heat up enough oil to cover the bottom. Once hot add in your NORMAL sliced onions, garlic, season with sugar and a pinch of salt & pepper. Sauté until all of your onions are completely soft and caramelized (7-10mins) stir often. Next deglaze your onions with your black rum and reduce for4-5 mins. Once reduced add in all of your white beans, thyme, cumin powder, bay leaf, lime juice & zest, vegetable or chicken broth and mix well. Season again with salt & pepper and bring soup to a to a boil while stirring often. Once at a boil reduce to a simmer and cook for 10-15 mins. Next turn off the fire, remove the bay leaf (set aside) and blend a little at a time (if using a juice blender) or with a hand blender blend until completely smooth and creamy. Once blended good, check for seasoning again and place back on the fire to reduce for another 5 mins (if the soup is too thick for your liking, add in a little water until the consistency is right for you.
For the crispy onions, in a small mixing bowl add in your thinly sliced onions and wet them a bit with water. Next add in enough flour to completely cover the onions and mix well so all of the onions are coated good. Next heat up your vegetable oil in a medium size sauté pan with high edges or a small sauce pot (put enough oil to deep fry your onions 375F). When the oil is hot enough, shake off all the excess flour and add in about ¼ of the onions at a time and fry until golden brown. Set aside to cool. To serve, garnish your tasty soup with the crispy onions and chives. Enjoy!!! Que Aproveche!!!

Before beginning any exercise regimen, proper stretching is essential. If muscles are properly warmed up, the strain on muscles, tendons, and joints is reduced.
Stretching exercises should take 5 to 10 minutes and ought to be conducted in a stretch/hold/relax pattern without any bouncing or pulling. It is important to stretch the propulsion muscles in the back of the leg and thigh (posterior) as well as the anterior muscles.
Some effective stretching exercises to prepare the foot and ankle for exercise include:
Excessive tightness of the calf muscles can contribute to many foot and some knee problems. A key point of injury is the Achilles tendon, which attaches the calf muscle to the back of the heel. When the calf muscle tightens up, it limits the movement of the ankle joint.
Calf muscle stretching is very useful in the prevention and treatment of many foot problems. Two typical methods for stretching your calf muscles include the wall push-up (described above) and this technique: Standing approximately two feet from a wall. While facing the wall, turn your feet inward ("pigeon toed") and lean forward into the wall, keeping your heels on the floor and the knees extended. Keep your back straight and don't bend at the hips. Hold the stretch for 10 seconds and do the stretch 10 times in a row.

Last year Labour unified itself. This year, it will be rolling out its headline-grabbing policies.
Labour needed to start the year with a splash and so it did. It announced three years of free education.
If elected, leader Andrew Little says his party will provide this through university or other tertiary education outlets. There is no age limit. If you've been working for years you can still return to education and take advantage of this offer. It's a $1.2 billion policy which will be in place by 2025.
As with any policy, you have to ask the question - how does this improve the current situation? And will it improve the quality of our education system?
A reduction in student debt is a good thing. People will enter the workforce owing less, and that has to be a good thing. More people will study, and anything driving up the numbers of tertiary -educated people is a bonus.
But there is no tangible plan to ensure our education system is meeting the needs of the jobs market. This is where we are failing. We're producing scores of communications students, when we need coders.
This policy might improve access to education, but it will not improve the quality.
This policy may be satisfying Labour's need to dominate headlines but it doesn't address the falling standards of our education system. It is at risk of choosing quantity over quality.
Listen to Rachel Smalley now on Larry Williams Drive, 4pm to 7pm.
Today, the show will cover Labour's education policy, whether Tony Abbott's endorsement of Helen Clark could help her pitch for the UN's top job and the great debate over skim milk in coffee. Should it be banned?
