The Franchise Miss
It was April 24th, 2004, my birthday, and day 1 of that year�s NFL draft. For Redskins fans, it was a memorable and fateful draft, for it was that year the Redskins used a rare 1st round pick to select the incomparable Sean Taylor. Taylor�s rise to fearsome defensive force is well documented, as was his horribly unfortunate and tragic death.
Lost amidst the fanfare and hype surrounding Taylor�s selection that day was the acquisition of another player destined to have a major impact on the Redskins organization, tight end Chris Cooley of Utah State. Although physically gifted, Cooley came to the NFL with a remarkably unimpressive resume. Over his 3 year college career, Cooley pulled in a respectable, but hardly jaw-dropping 96 receptions for 1255 total yards. The Redskins scouting department must�ve had a hunch about Cooley. They selected him with their 3rd round pick, the 81st pick of the 2004 draft.
Cooley was a fan favorite, including this fan, almost from the start. Personable, gregarious, witty, and smart, he was a PR department�s dream from the day he arrived. Cooley was instantly popular off the field and on it, where he became a solid and occasionally spectacular go-to receiver for whoever happened to be tossing the pigskin that year. Cooley was tough and durable, with sure hands and the ferocity to go across the middle regardless of the price to be paid. He played every single game until a broken ankle ended his season midway through the 2009 campaign. Cooley has also won over fans with his openness, accessibility, and fun-loving spirit. His personal website, �The Cooley Zone� is not only a hot Redskins fan internet stop, but perhaps the best personal NFL player website out there.
Chris Cooley is a great Redskin, and a great guy.
But drafting him in 2004 may have been a colossal missed opportunity for the Washington Redskins. Setting well-deserved Cooley man-love aside, I believe the Redskins made a huge blunder in selecting Cooley. Sitting there for the taking in the 3rd round that year was a player who�d have had a far greater impact on the seasons since that draft. Better still, he was one of those rarest of NFL draft treasures, a franchise quarterback at bargain basement prices.
I�m speaking of last year's Pro Bowl quarterback, the Houston Texans Matt Schaub.
Who am I to challenge the wisdom of the Redskins 2004 scouting department and front office? Good question. After all, they�d drafted an obvious franchise QB only 2 years earlier in Patrick Ramsey. Ramsey was so talented, Joe Gibbs gave him about 5 minutes of starting glory in 2005 before giving him the hook in favor of a game but geriatric Mark Brunell. And you know the rest of this promising tale of quarterbacking glory, the latest chapter of which ended along with the Jason Campbell experiment. Suffice it to say, the Redskins and their fans have wrung their hands over the QB position nearly continuously since that draft day in 2004.
It didn�t have to be so. I can�t prove it, but had Joe Jackson Gibbs been in the driver�s seat a year earlier, we might well have drafted a QB instead with that precious second pick in 2004, and it may well have been a gunslinger from a little state university in Charlottesville, Virginia. As it was, Gibbs was just getting his head around the new NFL, and likely placed his trust in Vinny Cerrato and company, who'd made their bed with Patrick Ramsey and were determined to lie in it. Gibbs soon enough realized he needed a real quarterback. He could have had one to groom, and grow, from the beginning.
And why might we have gone that route you ask? It�s all about the numbers boys. Schaub was a legitimate star at Virginia, lighting up the ACC skies during his 3 years as a starter. True, the Atlantic Coast Conference was hardly known as a hotbed of NFL quarterbacks, but Schaub racked up impressive stats during his UVa career. He completed nearly 70% of his passes, threw for 6000 yards, threw 56 touchdowns with only 17 interceptions, and achieved a passer rating in the 140�s during his final 2 college seasons. In 3 seasons, he threw for over 7500 yards and set an ACC pass completion percentage (67%) record that has yet to be eclipsed (Philip Rivers couldn�t do better than #5 all-time, and Matt Ryan lags behind at #7). Schaub was the real deal in 2004, and would have been a steal at pick #81 that year.
There were a lot of quarterback gems sparkling in the April sun that 2004 draft day, so perhaps it�s understandable that lots of teams walked right past a diamond in the rough. Names like Manning, Rivers, and Roethlisberger were on every NFL team�s lips and dominated the conversation. Obscured by the light and hype surrounding those 3 great prospects, Schaub was an afterthought. When JP Losman was selected by Buffalo in the first round and Schaub was still waiting for a phone call well into round 3, he must�ve questioned himself whether anyone would recognize his talents. At 6�5�, 235 lbs, it was clear to me that Schaub had the stature, arm, and leadership skills to be an NFL starter, maybe even a franchise quarterback.
With the Redskins on the clock late in the 3rd round and Schaub still on the board, my heart was racing. Just down the road from the Skins at UVa, there was no way Schaub�s skills and promise could have escaped a Redskins front office with nothing but question marks at quarterback. He had to be their guy � it just made sense. I watched in disappointment as the Redskins drafted an unheralded tight end from Utah State.
I love me some Chris Cooley. And if you�re going to �miss� on a franchise quarterback in the 3rd round, there probably aren�t many other players I can think of who I�d rather us 'miss on' than Chris Cooley. Cooley is tough, dedicated, talented, and a team guy. He�s a great Redskin.
Still � I can�t help but regret that we never got to see what Joe Gibbs might have done with a star-in-waiting like Schaub - a big, strong, smart, and coachable quarterback who could make all the throws necessary to do great things in the NFL. Despite 3 years wasted on the bench in Atlanta waiting for Michael Vick to implode, Schaub has already made his NFL mark. Almost single-handedly taking the Texans from NFL marshmallow to division contender, Schaub has completed 66% of his passes during his tenure there, and in 2009 threw for 4770 yards (!), 29 touchdowns, and 15 interceptions enroute to his first Pro Bowl appearance.
We�ll never know where the NFL winds of fate may have taken the Redskins with Schaub in burgundy and gold. But this weekend, when the Redskins line up across from a guy they could�ve had behind center for the past 6 seasons, I won�t be able to keep from wondering.

Three South Los Angeles residents could face the death penalty on charges stemming from a shooting in May that left two 15-year-old boys dead and two others wounded, the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office said on Tuesday.
One of the slain victims was La'marrion Upchurch, a student at Long Beach's Cabrillo High School and an up and coming dancer who went by Lil BZ in Los Angeles's hip-hop clowning scene.
Cristian Ivan Macias, 19, Nancy Joanna De La Rocha, who turned 27 on Tuesday, and Edwin Federico Loza, 19, each face two counts of murder and two counts of premeditated attempted murder, the prosecutor's office said in a statement.
Deputy District Attorney Michael Michelena said Macias had a confrontation with a group of teenage boys on a street in South Los Angeles in the early morning of May 13 and left. But he returned in a vehicle a short time later, along with De La Rocha and Loza.
By then the teens were walking in the 300 block of West Manchester Avenue near the 110 Freeway. Loza is accused of shooting the victims with a handgun, Michelena said in the statement.
Upchurch was pronounced dead at the scene, and Monyae Jackson died at a hospital two days later. The other two victims, also 15, were wounded but survived. The teens were all South Los Angeles residents.
There are special-circumstance allegations — for multiple murders and the defendants allegedly being active street-gang members who allegedly shot the teens to further the gang's activities — that would allow the District Attorney's Office to seek the death penalty. The prosecutor's statement said a decision on whether to seek the death penalty in the case will be made later.
The three defendants were arrested one-by-one in the months after the attack. All were in custody without bail.

The Star of David imagery used in a Twitter post by Donald J. Trump this weekend had previously appeared on a message board known for anti-Semitism and white supremacy, as well as on a Twitter account with a history of racially charged comments, according to a report.
It is unclear where the Trump campaign discovered the image, which placed the shape of the Star of David beside a picture of Hillary Clinton with text that read, "Most Corrupt Candidate Ever!" and a background of $100 bills. The post on Saturday by Mr. Trump prompted immediate criticism, fueling accusations that Mr. Trump was playing to stereotypes of Jews.
Later on Saturday, Mr. Trump deleted the post and added another image with a circle covering the star, though tips of the star were still visible. While Mr. Trump's campaign has been silent on the episode, and did not respond to requests for comment, some of his defenders have argued that a six-pointed star is a symbol used by many sheriff's departments.
But a report on Sunday by the news website Mic traced the image to a website for the "alt right," an internet-based movement associated with white nationalism, where it appeared as early as June 22. The origin of the image appeared to be a Twitter account that has frequently criticized Mrs. Clinton, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, and has posted caustic and violent messages about Muslims, refugees and race.
For much of his campaign, Mr. Trump has been criticized for appearing to accommodate fringe groups and making comments that heartened them. He has also reposted encouraging messages from white supremacists.
Mr. Trump received criticism this year after he initially declined to disavow the support of David Duke, the white nationalist and former member of the Ku Klux Klan, before eventually distancing himself.
"I do not know that there's a precedent for this," Jonathan Greenblatt, the chief executive of the Anti-Defamation League, said in an interview.
"I think it's certainly long overdue for Donald Trump as the presumptive G.O.P. nominee and as a person in the public square to reject — to flat-out, to firmly, to forcefully reject — the anti-Semites and the racists with a clarity and energy he's brought to the campaign trail when going after other candidates," Mr. Greenblatt said.
Mr. Greenblatt added that research had shown that white supremacists interpret Mr. Trump's "hesitant disavowals" as a "green light" for their views.
Conservatives opposed to Mr. Trump have shuddered at what they consider to be unsubtle dog whistles, a term for coded messages to a political subgroup, from the candidate.
"A Star of David, a pile of cash, and suggestions of corruption," Erick Erickson, a conservative commentator, posted on Twitter. "Donald Trump again plays to the white supremacists."
Mr. Trump's supporters have cast such reactions as examples of excessive sensitivity and political correctness. The fallout from this flap has been no exception.
On Sunday, on CNN, Corey Lewandowski, Mr. Trump's former campaign manager, called the reaction "political correctness run amok."
"A tweet is a simple tweet," he said. "The bottom line is, you can read into things that are not there."
Aides to Mrs. Clinton, who is a Methodist, have so far declined to comment.
Mr. Trump often speaks of his close ties to Jewish people. His daughter Ivanka converted to Judaism when she married Jared Kushner, who has become a close campaign adviser.
On Sunday, Mr. Trump called Elie Wiesel, the Holocaust survivor and Nobel Prize winner who died Saturday, a "great man."
"The world is a better place because of him and his belief that good can triumph over evil!" Mr. Trump posted on Twitter.
At a funeral service for Mr. Wiesel on Sunday, Ted Koppel revealed that Mr. Wiesel recently had lunch with Mr. Trump at the candidate's invitation, according to two people at the memorial.
"I am sure he did not love Donald Trump," said Francine Klagsbrun, an author and a friend of Mr. Wiesel's. "I am sure he would not be voting for Trump," she said. "But he was just an open person who was open to everybody."

Recital continues O'Brien dominance
Ballydoyle's unique stranglehold on Navan's Trim Maiden for the more stoutly-bred juveniles was further extended yesterday by expensive purchase Recital which responded to a determined drive by champion jockey Johnny Murtagh to justify favouritism.
A seventh consecutive scorer in this one-mile race for champion trainer Aidan O'Brien, the Montjeu colt, which changed hands for €750,000 at the yearling sales in Deauville, fought on well to overtake the more experienced Giants Serapis on the climb to the post.
The runner-up took over from pace-setting Minsk early in the straight and was kept right up to his work by Declan McDonogh before being outpaced where it counted most by what could prove to be a pretty smart recruit for the Coolmore partners.
"He's a big, green horse that stays well. There was no hiding place out there and you could be seeing him in the first week of June next year," said Murtagh's in an obvious reference to the 2011 English Derby.
Two years ago Fame And Glory progressed notably from a similar winning debut in this contest to finish runner-up in that famous Epsom Classic and indeed returned to Epsom this season to claim the Coronation Stakes over the same route.
Murtagh doubled up in the finale on another Ballydoyle market leader, this time previous Navan victor Table Mountain, which made no mistake in the Golf President Handicap after experiencing a troubled passage at Naas last Sunday.
Third to Gimli's Rock in a premier handicap at Naas, the Milan colt took the step up in trip by a furlong here in his stride despite this quick reappearance as he held a prominent position from the outset and ultimately lorded it in the final furlong.
A morning gamble on their stable companion Freedom which looked like coming to fruition for most of the journey later in the Median Auction Maiden came unstuck when Seamus Heffernan's mount was passed almost on the line by Midnight Music.
The season's leading jockey Pat Smullen was praised by Dermot Weld for "a good, strong ride" after emerging best in a close three-way finish as Lady O'Reilly's home-bred Dubawi filly fulfilled the promise of her Curragh debut third two months previously.
In the wars at Dundalk at the start of the month, Danny Grant, who was sidelined for a fortnight with facial injuries, got back among the winners in style as his boss Pat Flynn's Waydownsouth made it four victories from his last five starts when defying top weight in the Lady Golf Captain Handicap.
The locally-based Kiernan family's Mac Tiernan was the horse that foiled Waydownsouth at Clonmel in early September and Pat Lally's charge duly followed up in the later division of this race when making all the running in the hands of Martin Harley.
Similar enterprising tactics likewise paid off for Andy Oliver's White Diamond in the featured Fillies Handicap to the delight of Ben Curtis, who is now two ahead of defending title-holder Gary Carroll in their protracted duel for the apprentice crown.

Community College Internationalization Fellowship
The goal of the Community College Internationalization Fellowship Program is to encourage Community College faculty to collaborate with Cornell University's area studies programs and the South Asia Center at Syracuse University to create and implement curricular projects which integrate international, intercultural or global dimensions, and world languages, into community college curriculum. We aim to increase global learning, intercultural knowledge and competence of students at community colleges. These projects could include a new course, a new unit of an existing course, or a service learning component to an existing course that encourages the exchange of diverse perspectives.
Each project must engage with one or more specific world areas. To meet our funding agency's requirements, projects which engage with Latin America, South Asia or Southeast Asia will be given preference and greater curricular development support.
These projects will be implemented over the course of one year, with the possibility of an extension of a second year if the project warrants further development. Over the course of the first year, the outreach coordinator will support Fellows by facilitating administrative support, in-person and virtual meetings, and content area resources needed in order to be successful. Individual projects will be funded as follows:
$500 for development at the start of the project, and $500 for implementation upon completion.
Application Process
Project proposals are due on April 1, 2019 via email to Kathi Colen Peck, Post-Secondary Outreach Coordinator, at firstname.lastname@example.com. Questions via email about the fellowships or the application process are more than welcome.

Business News, Nation (New Delhi), November 22:-Notwithstanding the various government schemes that provide financial aid, 8 out of 10 women entrepreneurs across the country are self-financing their businesses, says a report.
According to a report by sheatwork, a knowledge hub for women entrepreneurs, self finance is a major source of funding for 80 per cent of women entrepreneurs.
"While significant efforts have been made by the central and state governments as well as independent agencies through the years in India, there still exists a huge gap in awareness and promotion levels of women entrepreneurship," sheatwork.com founder Ruby Sinha said.
A state-wise analysis shows that, Goa, Jammu & Kashmir, Karnataka, Rajasthan and West Bengal have emerged as top five states offering the maximum number of schemes for women entrepreneurs.
Further, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu along with West Bengal have the highest number of women entrepreneurs in the country with a majority in small and medium sized businesses, the report said.
Sector-wise, the education sector sees the maximum number of women entrepreneurs followed by financial services, insurance, livestock, forestry and lodging.
Interestingly, the Northeastern states of Arunachal Pradesh, Meghalaya and Nagaland have lesser overall number of women entrepreneurs but the ratio of male to female entrepreneurs is very strongly favoured towards women.

A truly prodigious band will evolve from album to album. Historically, the album that usually defines a band's status as elite is their third album. Take a look at these 3rd albums made by rock bands from the 80's-00's and consider that those albums indeed did define the career of the musicians.
BORN TO RUN- by Bruce Springsteen
SONGS FOR THE DEAF- by Queens of the Stone Age
OK COMPUTER- by Radiohead
THE BATTLE OF LOS ANGELES- by Rage Against the Machine
RUBBER FACTORY- by The Black Keys
What is it that makes the third album so imperative?
Take into account the first album is usually full of teenage angst, and pubescent irony, saturated with having been played hundreds of times in shitty bars and local stages where you try to make a name for yourself.
The second album is the artists more focused piece. It's typically the first time the artists made music for someone other than themselves. The writing process takes into consideration the fans and style of music the band is shaping to be their own.
For most bands, these albums are usually their best music as they poured all their creativity into the early work.
For the legendary bands, these albums were nothing but progress before they really explored who they are as a band, and how that band will specifically communicate ideas to the world through music. No matter how good the first two albums were, a great band builds on them and their unique voice becomes vigorously worked for the greatness they desire.
If you look back at my list of 3rd albums, Rage Against the machine is the only band listed who didn't go on to make more music. They literally put so much hard work into the third album that they self-destructed, worn out and stressed from the pressure of fashioning a holistic album that hits every note necessary to be labeled excellent.
And here we are, talking about the importance of 3rd albums because Arcade Fire's "Suburbs" did not live up to the greatness for me. Funeral, AF's first album, was pitch-perfect. Funeral is washy with tones of nihilism; operatic with themes of community and family; sorrowful with ideas of unachievable redemption. And then they topped their foundation with "Neon Bible," an album that stunned many of Arcade Fire's early listeners. That stun is often found when a band changes its style to evolve into something bigger. And bigger they went. This hallowing sense of abuse and neglect, family destruction, and a crumbling worldview weighs on you while Neon Bible's beauty seems to keep you captivated. Tortured by splendor, the album holds your heart and never let's go. Neon Bible holds the "Black Mirror" up to you and asks you to stare deeply into it.
Suburbs is different. Suburbs sits you down in a breakfast nook of the middle class home and asks you to reflect on the dreams of childhood, the youthful reflection through the large pane window. I felt Suburbs did not do justice to the band. Arcade Fire was more than a band that experiments with suburban living to write an album. LET ME STOP AND SAY THIS:
Suburbs, as a creative endeavor, is stunning and gorgeous. It's a story about how pitiful the artificial beauty of middle to upper class living is, and how the American dream is just a façade. It produces a beautiful sound, about a synthetic beauty.
My problem with the album is that it feels as manufactured as the manufactured idea of suburban living. Yet many of my friends really enjoy the elements and the aesthetic of Arcade Fire's "Suburbs." I hate taking joy from things my friends relish in, so I kept my feelings about Suburbs suppressed. But as a 3rd album it concerned me. Could this be the defining moment of Arcade Fire's career, and if so, the evolution of their band would be one that I'd lose interest in. I felt like I was losing a lover, because we were growing apart. It wasn't a bad break up, just one of those relationships that drifted away, but you continued to live together because somehow you dug up just enough hope. And then REFLEKTOR, Arcade Fire's 4th album appeared. Glimpses and teases of the record were released months ago, and it left more questions than answers.
Now having played through it multiple times front to back, I have more hope in my relationship with AF, and also more distrust in what "we had." The operatic beauty that they struck is becoming the latent image of their songwriting. Now new sounds appear to be building a crescendo epic distortion, with pity-laden lyrics and desolate feelings. Arcade Fire has always been "emo" in lyrics, but the robust chords and melodic puzzling paved a way for Win's lyrics to come out much more poetically. Reflektor's lyrics sound ironically delivered to itself. I picture a man alone in the dark, saying tongue-in-cheek lyrics to himself, as though he was consoling his loneliness with the idea that "atleast I have myself."
Which is hauntingly visceral, a man so alone, he consoles himself with the company of himself.
Taking that away from the album is enough that I want to say it's a great record. But I don't enjoy listening to it front to back. That was something I admired about Arcade Fire, from beginning to end, a story was told and I wanted to listen. But I caught myself scratching to skip tracks.
With this background painted, and the stage set, I want to hear your opinions. Please comment below on your thoughts, and I am going to do my best to compile them in a follow up next week. Arcade Fire's material is typically best chewed on, and by next week, my feelings may be drastically revised, but its looking that's unlikely.

Resistance Training - How many reps and sets of my exercise should I do?
The number of reps and sets you complete in your training program should be determined by your goals (i.e. what you want to achieve out of training). The number of reps also relates to how heavy the weight is (i.e. relative to the maximum weight you can lift). As a general rule, the heavier the weight is (relative to your maximum), the lower the number of reps you should complete in a set. An important consideration of resistance training is that your body will adapt specifically to the kind of stress you put on it.
There are 4 main adaptations of resistance training: endurance, hypertrophy, strength, and power. The table below explains the definition of each adaptation and how you can structure your exercises to achieve each adaptation.
Remember, your body adapts to the specific stress you put on it. So make sure the way you train is in line with what you want to achieve! Feel free to have a chat with one of our friendly trainers if you have any questions.

The United States' Mirai Nagasu has announced plans to take an indefinite break from competitive figure skating and has ruled out competing at the 2022 Winter Olympic Games in Beijing.
The two-time Olympian, who at Pyeongchang 2018 became the first American women to land a triple axel at the Olympics, revealed she will skip this year's International Skating Union (ISU) Grand Prix of Figure Skating series but could return to action later in the campaign.
The series is due to begin with Skate America in Everett, from October 19 to 21, and conclude with the Grand Prix Final in Vancouver, from December 6 to 9.
"I can definitely tell you that I won't be around for another Olympics," Nagasu, a three-time Four Continents Championships medallist, was reported as saying by NBC Sports.
"After three Olympic cycles, I won't last another Olympics, but I don't know about competing [in non-Olympic events] right now.
"It's definitely something I have to think deeply on, so I don't have the answer you're seeking, but I will always be part of the skating community."
Nagasu, who placed 10th in the women's singles event at Pyeongchang 2018 and claimed a team event bronze medal, claimed other people deserve the opportunity on the Grand Prix series.
"After 10 years [of senior competition], I think I deserve a break," she added.
"I feel like a lot of other Olympians this year have felt the same.
"After a lifetime of skating, I feel like a little break won't hurt me."
I've been skating every day because of fear of losing shape and I have to say, skating is so hard. You don't even know.— Mirai Nagasu (@mirai_nagasu) June 19, 2018
Despite taking a break, Nagasu, 25, intends to appear in non-competitive skating shows in Japan and Sun Valley in Idaho this summer.
She also took part in the latest series of Dancing with the Stars, being partnered with professional Alan Bersten.
The pair were eliminated third.
Last month, fellow American figure skater Adam Rippon said he will probably not compete again and will definitely sit out the ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating series.
The 28-year-old was part of the US's bronze medal-winning team at Pyeongchang 2018.
American brother and sister duo Alex and Maia Shibutani, meanwhile, confirmed in April they will not compete during the 2018-2019 figure skating season.
The Pyeongchang 2018 ice dance bronze medallists revealed they are taking a break from the sport but did not rule out a return to competition in future.
Also announcing last month that she will skip the ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating series was Canada's Olympic and world champion Kaetlyn Osmond.
Compatriot Patrick Chan, Canada's most decorated male figure skater, confirmed his retirement from the sport at the age of 27 in April.
Chan said he had fulfilled his "dreams and aspirations" after he was part of the Canadian squad which won the gold medal in the team event at Pyeongchang 2018.

The boys basketball team won the 2013 MHSAA Class "D" State Title, successfully defending their 2012 title. The Eagles finished the season with an overall 23-4 record by winning their final 20 games after starting the season with one of the toughest non-league schedules in the state. Second year head coach Josh Baker and his assistants, John White, Dave Hart, and Clennie Brundidge, have pushed the Eagles into a basketball power by going 48-6 over the past two seasons besides winning two state titles.
This year's team was led by first team all-state, sophomore point guard Bakari E. who averaged over 20 points per game this season. Junior Lindsey H. IV also earned all-state special mention this season while junior Damarco W. and freshman Marlo B. earned all-conference honors. This young team will return a majority of its players next season already placing them as the favorite for another title run next March.

Cincinnati's Cinergy Field Demolished
Associated Press Writer
The ballpark that was home to Pete Rose's Big Red Machine and the site of Hank Aaron's 714th home run was reduced to rubble in less than a minute Sunday.
With the push of a button, 1,275 pounds of dynamite and nitroglycerine went off in a counterclockwise sequence of blasts around Cinergy Field nee Riverfront Stadium, collapsing the 32-year-old arena inward onto its former playing surface.
It took all of 37 seconds.
The demolition of the stadium, built for $44 million and opened in 1970, eliminated what had been a prominent feature of Cincinnati's skyline along the Ohio River.
Onlookers cheered and some car horns sounded as a cloud of smoke and dust spread to downtown before dissipating within half an hour.
"It was awesome," said 17-year-old Maureen Wille, who drove through the night from Pontiac, Ill., with her brother to videotape the collapse of the ballpark.
Workers had already stripped out the lighting, seats and other fixtures to prepare the ballpark, first known as Riverfront Stadium and later renamed Cinergy Field.
The $280 million Great American Ball Park next door and the nearby John A. Roebling Suspension Bridge, which spans the Ohio River to Covington, Ky., were not damaged by Cinergy's collapse.
The demolition crew left sand mounds and part of the outfield wall standing at Cinergy, hoping to protect the Great American Ball Park.
An inspection of the new ballpark found no broken windows and minimal dust from Cinergy's collapse, said Jeff Sizemore of O'Rourke Wrecking Co., the demolition contractor.
"It couldn't have gone better," Sizemore said.
The Reds open their new ballpark March 28 with an exhibition game against the Cleveland Indians. The season opener is March 31 against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Thousands of people lined both sides of the river to watch the demolition, and some bars and restaurants had breakfast parties for spectators.
Hotel rooms with a view of the demolition were booked, and others watched from boats on the river. The demolition was also broadcast on regional television stations.
Three blocks away at Paul Brown Stadium, the home of the Cincinnati Bengals, thousands of spectators cheered and applauded as Cinergy crumbled.
Riverfront Stadium opened in 1970 with Hank Aaron hitting a home run in the first game. That fall, the stadium hosted the World Series in which the Reds lost to the Baltimore Orioles.
On opening day in 1974, Aaron tied Babe Ruth's career home run record of 714. Aaron would go on to finish with 755.
The Reds went on to win three World Series, including consecutive titles in 1975-76 with Rose, Tony Perez, Joe Morgan and Johnny Bench leading the Big Red Machine. In 1985, Rose passed Ty Cobb to become baseball's career hits leader.
In the winter, the stadium was home to the Bengals, who reached two Super Bowls while playing there.
In one of the NFL's coldest games, Jan. 10, 1982, the Bengals overcame a wind chill of 59 degrees below zero to beat the San Diego Charges 27-7 in the AFC championship game, advancing to their first Super Bowl.
The Bengals left the stadium in 1999, opening play in 2000 at Paul Brown Stadium.
The site will become the western concourse of Great American Ball Park and will include the Reds' Hall of Fame, set to open in 2004.

Report from the World Congress of Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery 2017
This July in Barcelona was no exception.
A bridging of specialties and knowledge
At this year's 7th World Congress, more than 30 clinicians from Boston Children's Hospital joined over 4,000 of their peers from 55 different countries to learn, discuss and share all things heart. Over the course of five days, the Congress explored topics from renowned speakers that spanned across the spectrum of cardiac care — from imaging and anesthesia to genetics and heart transplant.
With so many pediatric heart specialists and worldwide leaders in one place at one time, the Congress is a unique venue for discussion, friendly debate, learning from one other and sharing the latest research. In fact, some of the research discussed at the Congress was so new it had not yet been published. Many participants also enjoyed reconnecting with colleagues and mentors.
Hosting a well-attended dinner symposium
Boston Children's hosted an educational dinner symposium on the first night of the Congress entitled "Frontiers in Pediatric and Congenital Valve Disease." We were thrilled that our symposium received so much interest and our session was heavily-attended.
Boston Children's physicians shared their latest research and expertise on the following topics:
Aortic Valve:
- When to intervene in asymptomatic aortic regurgitation in children and young adults? – Tal Geva, MD
- What are novel reconstructive techniques? – Christopher Baird, MD
The Borderline Left Heart:
- When is the left heart too small? – Andrew Powell, MD
- What are strategies to maintain biventricular circulation in the borderline left heart? – Sitaram Emani, MD
Tricuspid valve:
- What does 3D imaging have to offer for tricuspid valve surgeries? – Gerald Ross Marx, MD
- How do you manage congenital tricuspid valve abnormalities? – Pedro del Nido, MD
Each presentation was accompanied by a lively panel discussion with the speakers and audience.
In the late fall, videos of the sessions will be available on OPENPediatrics, a free and open-access online community of clinicians sharing best practices from all resource settings around the world through innovative collaboration and digital learning technologies.
We look forward to continuing this collaboration, conversation and debate with our colleagues from around the country and across the world at the next World Congress in 2021 to be held in Washington, DC.

Posted by Mike Bull | Date January 3, 2018
In October, I shared preliminary thoughts about steps needed to hit Minnesota's economy-wide deep decarbonization goal to reduce carbon emissions 80% by 2050. I call it "Minnesota's Moonshot" because of the heightened intention, broad-based collaboration, intensive planning, and just plain hard work it'll take to get us there.
Deep energy efficiency achievements are critical to getting us off the ground. Through energy efficiency, we reduce the amount of wasted energy in our economy so homeowners and businesses can put more of their money to more productive use, and so our utilities aren't building unnecessary infrastructure just to serve that energy waste. Minnesota has a long, proud tradition when it comes to reducing energy waste.
In 2017, the American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy ranked Minnesota's energy efficiency policies the 9th most effective in the nation — Minnesota was the only Midwestern state (and the only non-coastal state) making the top 10 in the ACEEE's State Energy Efficiency Scorecard. Approximately 14% of Minnesota's electricity needs are met by energy efficiency, about the same as wind energy and natural gas-fired generation. It's important that we keep building on this terrific achievement.
Key to doing so will be the information we'll gather through the Statewide Demand Side Potential Study that the Minnesota Department of Commerce engaged CEE to lead. This project will refresh our collective assessment of the attainable and cost-effective customer energy savings available to Minnesota electric and natural gas utilities, as well as how best to capture that potential through policy and programmatic solutions. Commerce has also funded a team to identify the potential for utility-system efficiency available in Minnesota. Both studies will be completed by the fall of 2018.
In addition, two key policies help guide utilities to reduce energy waste in Minnesota's economy:
Efficiency as the Preferred Resource: Minnesota has specified that energy efficiency is preferred above all other resources available to utilities, and the State requires efficiency to be "aggressively and systematically" procured. We need to do a better job integrating this requirement into electric utility resource plans, so our utilities are doing all the planning necessary to minimize energy waste.
Energy Efficiency Resource Standard: To help reinforce efficiency as our preferred resource, Minnesota requires each each natural gas and electric utility to achieve annual energy savings equal to 1.5% of their gross annual retail sales. Targeting is implemented through Minnesota's Conservation Improvement Program (CIP), and has resulted in flat to declining load growth for our electric utilities. A sign of Minnesota's success in reducing energy waste cost-effectively is that the potential for growth in consumer demand for electricity has largely been met through energy efficiency, while the state's gross domestic product continues to rise.
CIP is Minnesota's most successful energy policy:
Since 2008, CIP has saved Minnesotans an estimated $3.8 billion on their energy bills, mostly through avoiding power plants and other infrastructure in which utilities haven't needed to invest — and, consequently, that customers haven't had to pay for.
CIP supports over 50,000 Minnesota jobs, which are located all over the state.
National consulting organization Cadmus Group found in 2015 that every $1 spent on CIP generated $4 in net benefits through job growth, economic growth, lower utility bills, and environmental benefits.
For a clean energy advocate like CEE — and for the state we call home — Minnesota's energy efficiency policies are a terrific platform from which to launch the transformational activities needed to cut carbon 80% by 2050. At the same time, we will need to maintain reliable and affordable energy services for Minnesotans — that's mission critical to landing this Minnesota moonshot. Being as energy efficient as possible will lower the cost of everything else we'll need to do to meet this goal.
Obviously, reducing energy waste will not be sufficient to meet our deep decarbonization goals. Efficiency will need to be complemented by:
Continuing to decarbonize our electric supply through expanding our use of renewable energy like wind, solar, and hydropower; and
Strategically using that decarbonized energy source to power areas of Minnesota's economy that are typically powered by more carbon-intensive fuels, where doing so saves energy, saves customers money, and reduces carbon emissions.
Return here for posts on both fronts in the coming weeks.

Frank Capra was one of the most innovative and motivated directors and producers of his time. His films were commercially and critically successful, but Capra's career was not without its challenges. Lost Horizon debuted in 1937, starring Ronald Colman and Jane Wyatt. Though the film was well received, the experience of producing it nearly wrecked Capra emotionally. Capra was a visionary director and it was hard for him to compromise on his vision. For example, the film was originally over 6 hours long. Capra trimmed the movie down to 3 ½ hours, but it was still too long to show in theaters. Much to the dismay of Capra, Columbia Pictures removed even more footage so that the final running time was 132 minutes. In 2013, Sony Colorworks restored the black and white film. There were a few places in the film where the actual footage is missing and photo stills were used to fill in the gaps.
Lost Horizon is an adaptation of James Hilton's novel of the same name. The movie wastes no time getting into the action. British diplomat Robert Conway (Colman) is tasked with evacuating 90 Westerners from the city of Baskul before the armed revolutionaries arrive. Robert and his brother George (John Howard) just barely make their escape. Also aboard the aircraft are three civilians anxious to return to England: the paleontologist, Alexander Lovett (Edward Everett Horton), the swindler, Henry Barnard (Thomas Mitchell), and a very ill woman named Gloria Stone (Isabel Jewell). They believe they are heading back to England, but hours later they realize their aircraft has been hijacked. While George is ready to attack the pilot, Robert remains calm and manages the situation so as to prevent the passengers from erupting into madness. In fact, throughout the entire film, Robert Conway is the epitome of spiritual Zen. There isn't anything that seems to faze him. Rather, he views every incident as part of a journey that he's supposed to experience, which drives his younger brother, George, nearly insane.
After a long and arduous journey, the five captives arrive at a beautiful valley, completely shielded by the tall snow capped mountains. Everything is plentiful in this peaceful village. Yet, everyone, except Robert, remains suspicious. It is not until Robert speaks to the founder of this town (Sam Jaffe) that he understands that their arrival was no accident. Shangri-La is a paradise where there is peace and prosperity. The inhabitants live for hundreds of years, and they do not suffer from illness or poverty. Almost immediately, Gloria makes a complete recovery from her illness due to the magical properties of Shangri-La's medicine. Sondra (Jane Wyatt), one of Shangri-La's inhabitants, is familiar with Robert Conway's work, and she believes Robert is a valuable asset to Shangri-La. Robert develops feelings for Sondra. Unfortunately, Robert's brother, George, and one of Shangri-La's other residents, Maria, can't wait to escape Shangri-La. Lost Horizon perfectly demonstrates why peace on earth is so elusive. Some people become uncomfortable and lose their sense of direction even when there's unadulterated peace. Most humans crave and therefore seek drama because it gives them a sense of purpose and identity. Robert is torn between his love for his brother and this newly discovered bond for Shangri-La and Sondra. He learns that sometimes life's journeys are not always linear, but that he will ultimately end up where he needs to be.
Frank Capra never did anything on a small scale. Lost Horizon cost so much money that it was financially in the red for several years. When I was in a high school, I had a film teacher who said that it was the editor for the film, Jaws, that saved Steven Spielberg's career. The editing can make or break a film. In its original form, Lost Horizon would have been far less successful because it was much too long and slow. Every artist sometimes gets so caught up in their vision that they don't see exactly what is in front of them. Capra was a genius, but he was also human.
From the moment Capra decided to make Lost Horizon, he had decided that Ronald Colman would play the role of Robert Conway. Capra even delayed production for Colman because Colman was contractually obligated to work on another film. Jane Wyatt went on to enjoy one of the longest careers in Hollywood. Most people probably know her best as the mother from the television series Father Knows Best. Edward Everett Horton and Thomas Mitchell were also very successful character actors. Mitchell played Scarlett O'Hara's dad in Gone with the Wind. Dimitri Tiomkin, who composed the music for many of Hollywood's epic films like The High and The Mighty and Giant, wrote the musical score for Lost Horizon. During his career in Hollywood, the legendary composer was nominated for an Oscar for Best Music twenty-two times.
In his works, Capra inserted some fantastical elements to explore life's most complex questions. In Lost Horizon, Capra places his characters in Shangri-La to show that human nature is always capable of good and evil despite being in a magical paradise. Each character responds differently to Shangri-La. Some find contentment, while others feel anxious and angry and are prone to starting drama. Paradise isn't a place, but a state of mind. People dream of immortality and peace, but, unless they are already at peace with themselves, no paradise can save them from their own discontent. While making this 1937 film was no easy feat for Capra or for Columbia Pictures, Lost Horizon earned its rightful place in Hollywood as a cinematic masterpiece.

Yoga Booty Challenge
Completing a book that covers as many practices and issues as Yoga for Men is a daunting task, which could not have been accomplished without the help of many people, most of them sincere practitioners of yoga who volunteered their time and talent to help make this book as reliable, photogenic, and helpful as possible. In addition to the venerated sages of the yoga tradition whose writings and teachings provided the foundational information contained in this book, I would like to acknowledge my indebtedness, in particular, to the following individuals.
To the models of Yoga for Men, who came together to show real people doing real yoga: Lola Brooks, Noll Daniel, Mark Donato, Gerrit Geurs, John Howard, Michael Latham, Emily Ranieri, and Alan Rothenberg. Special thanks to Emily for helping to shepherd everyone together; to Alan for providing a safe space for the shoot; and to Noll and Michael for illustrating more eloquently than words, both singly and together, that yoga can be not only skill, but also grace and artistry in action.
To my yoga teachers, who have taught me much. What is best in this book is due to them; what can be improved is of my own doing. Two teachers, in particular, were especially helpful in reviewing the text of Yoga for Men for technical assistance: Jon Cassotta and Mark Donato.
To other teachers, practitioners, and authorities in the field of yoga and men's health, who shared their expertise. The following were especially helpful: Prem Anjali; Lila Crutchfield; Richard Faulds; Edward Goldberg, M.D.; Gary Kraftsow; Michael Lee; James Murphy; Swami Ramananda; and Swami Sadasivananda. Many more people, too numerous to cite individually, offered valuable input. You know who you are and I am very grateful to you.
To my friends Clifford Milo and Artour Parmakian, who provided emotional support, a quiet space to craft the final version of this book, and creative and design assistance.
To my agent, Jeanne Fredericks, who believed in this project from the start. And to all the crew at Career Press, who collaborated with and supported Yoga for Men from beginning to end—and especially to my editors: Stacey Farkas, Mike Lewis, and Kristen Parkes.
To Thomas Amador, who photographed all the illustrations in Yoga for Men. His calm presence helped keep everyone, including myself, centered throughout the shoot—body, soul, and mind. A gifted yoga teacher himself and a wise soul, he used his gifted eye to bring Yoga for Men to life. Thank you, Thomas.
Finally, to the many masters of yoga—including T.K.V Desikachar; Georg Feuerstein, Ph.D.; B.K.S. Iyengar; Jean Klein; Swami Rama; Swamis Sivananda and Vishnu-devananda; and Swami Satchidananda—whose teachings and writings have inspired me and are the whisper behind the words of this book.
