Randy Winn during June, pre-tonight (so this is slightly low):
There may be a chance we get out of that contract just yet. He's one of the guys the M's should be actively trying to move, taking just about anything in return. There are much better ways to spend $4 million come this offseason.
Update: Just about to shut off Mlb.TV and go to bed when I hear the following phrase: "Winn (drawn out last sylable, pause), can't get to it." I'm guessing that ranks right up there with "frustrating loss" and "another blown opportunity" as the three most used terms during M's broadcasts this year.
On the game, at 8:30 — I totally support the abolition of the balk rule, followed by a limitation on the number of times a pitcher can throw to a base before delivering a pitch. Trickery and stealing bases are fun. Throwing to first 9,000 times when someone fast is on first is fricking boring.
Is there any real reason Clint Nageotte is still in the majors? He was pretty obviously not ready when they called him up, and he hasn't done anything to show that he deserves to stay. He's burning service time and development opportunities. Send him back to Tacoma and let him continue to work on his command and a third pitch. Having him in Seattle isn't doing anyone any good.
Felix Hernandez makes his Double-A debut for San Antonio tomorrow night. A few people have asked about his time table and when we might see him in the show. I mentioned during spring training that the club believed he could end 2005 in the majors, and he hasn't done anything to change those thoughts. There's a very real chance Felix is going to be in Safeco Field a year from now.
Yes! Exactly! That's what I should have said after I got all mad there: carried the argument in a worthwhile and interesting direction.
Also, here's the other issue: maybe the M's demographic is as skewed as it is because they *make it that way* by marketing and shaping the experience to that demographic.
Just my quick $0.02 on the female fan issue. I don't think there is any disputing that, as a group, female fans view the game differently than males. Just like they view everything else on earth differently than we do. Even the women who have written us who were upset by Thiel's column will agree with that point, I'd imagine. However, I feel that the breakdown in Lincoln/Thiel's argument is the assumption that their different perception of the team necessitates a different product be placed on the field. To me, this sounds like a "reasonable" assumption that a bunch of men would come to about women that, in all likelyhood, is completely wrong.
As an example, I work for a division of a major corporation that makes prodcuts strictly for women. However, our division is run by men, planned by men, organized by men, and almost completely driven by the male point of view. Almost all of my coworkers are female, however, and some of the products we've put out have become the running jokes of the office. They've been designed with seemingly well thought out motives and been analyzed by some of the top male minds in the industry, but it takes the women in our office 10 seconds of practical use to realize the giant design flaw that the men never caught a hold of.
Thats what this whole thing reminds me of. The men in the Mariners front office have, no doubt, ran numerous demographic surveys and realized that they have a significantly large portion of their fan base that is female. The normal assumption, then, as a male, is that the Mariners have more casual fans in their fan base that care less about winning and more about personality than a normal major league organization, and feel the need to make sure that those traits are covered in player acquisition as well.
I'd argue that this is where the logic breaks down. My Mom is a huge Mariner fan. She loves Dan Wilson, in spite of the years I've spent extolling his weaknesses to her. She thinks its great that the team has a bunch of family-values guys who do charity work and aren't out partying on the weekends. And, while thinking all that, she's been to exactly one game this year, far less than normal years, because she thinks the team stinks and isn't any fun to watch.
I think a large majority of the female Mariner fans would tell you that they really cared about how nice the players were and love the ad campaigns and family friendly atmosphere. And I think a large majority of those woman aren't coming to the games anymore because the product on the field stinks. Just like the men in their lives aren't coming to the games because the team stinks.
Male fans and female fans certainly view the game differently. When it comes right down to it, though, they are all still fans, regardless of gender, and what they really want is for the team to be playing in October. If the Mariners want to cater to their female fan base, they should concentrate on winning ballgames. Because women love winning too.
Art Thiel's column "Sentiment blurs Mariners' vision" is one of the more disturbing columns you'll read this year.
Bavasi's not trading Dan-Edgar-Jamie because the fans have a connection with them.
"There's absolutely no question that the nature of this market is different than nearly every other in baseball," team president Chuck Armstrong said.
His strongest evidence is consistent fan surveys done by the club and major league baseball that show more women and families attending games here than any other park in the country.
Thiel then mentions but passes over the really disturbing part:
That doesn't mean women can't be hard-core fans demanding excellence, or that men can't enjoy just hanging at the yard.
If that's the case, then what's the whole point of mentioning women as a factor in the decision? Doesn't this reasoning demand that you believe that women, even allowing for that token exception, don't care about quality of baseball and want to see their players cute and cuddly (as Thiel puts it)? Or that parents who bring their kids want to see clubhouse guys over quality of play?
Thiel then falls into the trap himself!
"I don't know if the word 'fault' is right, but it's probably our doing," Armstrong said. "We said, 'You gotta love these guys.' We end up keeping players longer than other teams."
It isn't just female fans who have pull. A 1996 decision to keep popular second baseman Joey Cora came from some of the local minority owners who couldn't bear to see the cute little guy go away.
See, he's gone back and tipped over the cart while you weren't looking. It's not "women and families" anymore. No, it's those darn female fans, with their love of Dan Wilson, that are the reason the Mariners can't compete by picking up good but unfriendly players.
Where is the evidence — any evidence — that female fans of the Mariners don't care if the team wins or loses? Isn't that just the basest of gross stereotypes, that women are shallow and concerned with appearance over performance, emotionally invested in personalities but not competition?
I'm disappointed in Thiel. If he's parroting Mariner management, he passed up a prime chance to grill them on these deeply sexist, offensive views of female fans and the parents who bring their kids to the ballpark.
If it's his own view that female fans are this way, I'm even more disappointed.
Trying to stave off a few emails here, because this is apparently a topic for discussion on some message boards somewhere.
Michael Morse is a shortstop in the same way that Wil Cordero (probably the best comp. I can come up with for Morse, overall), Gary Sheffield, Julio Franco and Chipper Jones came up as shortstops. In 10 years, if Morse has a major league career, people will look at you and say "really?" when you tell them that Morse once played a meaningful defensive position. Apparently, I understated just how abysmal Morse is with the glove, and folks who have no first hand knowledge of his defensive skills find it necessary to speculate on whether he can stay at the position.
Just to be clear, he couldn't play shortstop for your beer league team. You'd hide him in left field and pray to God that the team had a bunch of left-handed pull hitters. Reactions to watching him range to his right vary from "I could have gotten that" to "a paraplegic hippo makes that play" as the ball bounces into the outfield. Toss in a general malaise in the field, consistent lack of effort, and a reputation as being uncoachable, and improvement just isn't in the cards here.
These opinions were born out of watching him play several times a week last year as the regular shortstop for the Winston-Salem Warthogs, more or less my home team. I work 5 minutes from Ernie Shore Field and have been a regular at the park for the past three seasons. These opinions have nothing to do with the statistical bent that I know some people hold against us. This is purely observational and completely based on traditional scouting. Whether you think we're computer geeks or not is pretty much irrelevant in this case. Having watched Michael Morse play more often than just about anyone on earth not employed by the Chicago White Sox, it is painfully obvious to me that he's physically incapable of playing shortstop at an acceptable level, and I don't believe his defensive abilities translate well at any position. You can live with his shortcomings in the outfield or first base, but in the long run, Morse's position is probably going to be "hitter", and if he develops tremendously, might have a nice run as a DH for some American League team.
All that said, I still think he's a decent prospect, more than a throw-in, and I'm glad the M's picked him up in the deal. Even when he was hitting .240 last year, it was apparent that his offensive talent held some untapped promise. His bat has potential to carry him to the majors. But one thing should definitely be clear and not really be up for discussion; he can't play shortstop at the major league level.
Shameless self-promotion two:
I'll be on the air tonight with Pat Dillon during the Everett Aquasox pregame show. You can listen live via their internet site, or old fashioned radio at 90.7 on the FM dial.
And, if you're looking for a reason to go watch the Aquasox this year, how about Casey Craig, who I called the potential steal of the draft last year. In his first 32 at-bats, he's hitting .313/.463/.438 with a 9/7 BB/K ratio. Not bad for a 19-year-old in the Northwest League. Look for Craig to move up the charts pretty quickly in the soon-to-be-updated future forty.
Shameless self-promotion: Today's free article at Baseball Prospectus is my column on whether Edgar should retire. Free means even those of you who have suffered head trauma of some kind or have another reason not to subscribe to BP Premium can read this and see what you're missing.
If you were a little leery about getting too excited about an A ball prospect, it is now okay to bust out the word phenom. King Felix has been promoted to Double-A San Antonio at the ripe age of 18, after the hitter-happy California League poised little challenge. During his time in San Bernardino, he posted a 2.74 ERA in 92 innings, giving up 85 hits, walking 26, and striking out 114. He leaves the Cal League as the league leader in wins and strikeouts, and he was 4th in ERA. He'll likely end the year in San Antonio, but if he continues to dominate, don't be surprised if he's throwing in Tacoma next spring, and there's a real chance he could be in Seattle by next summer. At age 19. This kid is for real.

4 Gene Therapy Companies to Watch
What gene therapy companies should be on investors' radar? Here are four promising companies to consider looking at in 2018.
In 2018, investors have remained eager to find new opportunities in the life science sector, with gene therapy companies piquing the interest of savvy traders.
The work done in this sector is some of the most innovative, with therapies designed to directly treat patients with serious ailments like cancer or Alzheimer's disease.
Below the Investing News Network takes a closer look at four gene therapy companies with interesting developments in 2018 and beyond. The stocks below are listed from largest to smallest in order of market cap. Numbers were current as of December 3, 2018 at market close, and all companies had market caps below $500 million at that time.
1. Nightstar Therapeutics (NASDAQ:NITE)
Market cap: $436.97 million; current share price: $15.32
Nightstar Therapeutics launched on the NASDAQ late last year at an asking price of $14 per share. On its first day of trading, the company finished the day valued at $24 per share. However, since that initial high the company has faced a downward trend in its share price.
The company is focused on genetic therapies for rare diseases, a promising niche area of genetic work. Its most advanced candidate, NSR-REP1, is being evaluated to treat choroideremia, which is a rare genetic retinal disorder with no current treatments.
In March, the company began a STAR Phase 3 trial to study NSR-REP1 in patients with choroideremia. In its Q3 report, Nightstar said completion of enrollment for this trial is anticipated in the first half of 2019. Its other anticipated 2019 milestones include updates on its work regarding NSR-RPGR for X-linked retinitis pigmentosa.
2. Voyager Therapeutics (NASDAQ:VYGR)
Market cap: $355.62 million; current share price: $11.65
Voyager Therapeutics is a clinical-stage gene therapy company focused on treating severe neurological diseases. It is doing this by advancing the field of adeno-associated virus gene therapy.
The company announced a collaboration with AbbVie (NYSE:ABBV) in February under which the companies will develop and commercialize vectorized antibodies against tau-related diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease and other neurological diseases. Tau is a healthy protein in the brain, but with diseased brains the tau is altered in correlation with neurological diseases.
In November, Voyager shared an update on VY-AADC, a candidate for treating advanced Parkinson's disease. The company said that one-time treatment with VY-AADC demonstrates durable improvements in motor function at 18 months and beyond from an ongoing Phase 1b trial. Also recently, Voyager presented preclinical data for its Huntington's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis programs.
3. Kadmon (NYSE:KDMN)
Market cap: $270.95 million; current share price: $2.48
Kadmon is a biopharmaceutical company with a pipeline focused on inflammatory and fibrotic diseases. It has a portfolio of small-molecule Rho-associated coiled-coil kinase (ROCK) inhibitors, with its lead ROCK inhibitor candidate being KD025.
KD025 is being studied in ongoing Phase 2 clinical trials in chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD), idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and moderate to severe psoriasis. The company's latest results came in October, when it announced the dosing of the first patient in a pivotal clinical trial of KD025 in cGVHD.
In its Q3 report, released in November, the company also highlighted that the US Food and Drug Administration has granted breakthrough therapy designation to KD025 for the treatment of cGVHD.
4. Tocagen (NASDAQ:TOCA)
Market cap: $254.6 million; current share price: $13.65
Rounding out this list of gene therapy companies is Tocagen, which works in the development of genetic therapies with the goal of treating cancer.
Its lead product candidate, Toca 511 & Toca FC, is being investigated for the treatment of recurrent and metastatic cancers with significant unmet medical needs. Tocagen also has an anti-PD-L1 product candidate, Toca 521, that is currently in preclinical development.
The last few months have been busy for Tocagen. In August, it announced that a Toca 5 pivotal Phase 3 trial evaluating Toca 511 and Toca FC in patients with recurrent high-grade glioma would continue without modification. Then, in September, it completed enrollment of 380 patients in an ongoing Toca 5 Phase 3 trial about three months ahead of schedule. Planned second interim and final analyses for Toca 5 are anticipated in 2019, the company said in November.
Which gene therapy companies do you think are the most auspicious in 2018?

As a writer, the first step to securing a publishing deal is to acquire an agent, a middle-man, basically your number one fan who will shout about how good you are to publishers and hopefully persuade them to read your carefully-crafted novel.They are the gatekeepers to the publishing industry.
Digital publishers, however, are changing the game because they talk directly to authors.This doesn't mean that manuscripts are of a lesser quality. It just means there are new ways of doing things.
We live in a truly digital era, yet the digital publishing industry is still largely misunderstood.
Digital publishers are often young, dynamic companies striving to find creative ways to win influence in the online retail market of fiction and non-fiction.They also compete with traditional print publishers to discover the next big idea.
Now readers can plan to read a book on their commute or factor it into their day.That's an incredibly powerful thing to know in the take-a-punt market. If readers are finishing the book, hopefully it generates reviews, which generates more interest and more sales.Libraries have also cottoned on to the digital readership and have developed apps where you can take out digital books. Readers say it can save on late fees because there's no book to return.
Digital publishing: Five key tips
1. Do your research on the digital publisher. What are they looking for? Non-fiction? Fiction? Genre-fiction? Then read their submission guidelines and follow them closely.
2. Follow digital publishers who may be interested in your work on social media. They often put a call out for certain genres and hold open submissions. Plus you can always ask them for advice in this way. They do respond.
3. If you're dealing directly with a publisher make sure you employ a freelance editor to go over your manuscript. An agent will typically do this, so you need that second opinion on whether the manuscript is ready or not.
4. Work with them on the marketing. Maybe you you can get your book mentioned in your local newspaper? It's a start.
5. Get excited about the fact that you can now talk to publishers, but be realistic and don't give up your day job just yet.

I'm so happy my nails are a bit stronger that I can start wearing nail polishes! I'm going review a water decal I received from KKCenterHK.
Product Review: KKCenterHK N.Nail Lovely Cute White Shoes Sneakers Nail Water Decals
Where to purchase: kkcenterhk.com
Price: $5.75
Description from the website:
Brand New With Original Retail Packing Box
100% Authentic
A Sheet Water Decals
Water Decals are Not Sticky!!
Thoughts: When I received the package last week, I was so excited to play with the water decal! I couldn't wait one more week. I needed my nails to grow to file them into the shape I prefer. Oh well, it didn't come out perfect but I think it came out alright. :)
Now for my overall opinion... First of all, I'm a huge fan of water decals. They're so easy to use! You just dip them in water for couple of seconds, push with your finger off the paper, grab it with a Tweezer, apply to the area on your nails, and then finish it off with top coat. It doesn't sound that easy but it really is. Secondly, the hard part (in my opinion) is figuring out where you want the white nail polish to stop. If I was the maker of water decals, I would make the background (paper) see through. It'll be easy to pinpoint where you want the colors to be on the nails. Another option is having a white area on the tip of the nails part of the water decal. You only need one color and in my case, the blue. Lastly, I'm not too sure if it's this water decal or I never noticed in the past with other water decals. I noticed if you go over the water decal twice with top coat, parts of the water decal comes off. If you look at my ring finger, you will notice part of the shoelace is rubbed off.
* Comes in a varieties of styles.
* Comes with different sizes for each finger.
* Easy to use.
* Sticks well onto the nails.
* Long lasting.
* Does not rub off once it's set.
* Adorable!
* Hard to find in stores.
* Rubs off if you go over the area twice with top coat.
Would repurchase: Yes!

I placed an order on April 2, yes, more than one month ago, and called Dell for more than 15 hours to settle everything, which is not yet settled.
Firstly, the sales representative told me he will give me a free backpack. But when I checked the order next day, it's not there. I called and argued for 5 hours to get this PROMISED deal back to me. They charge me $96 and said will return $100 to my credit card after I received it.
Only 2 days later, Dell launched its new promotion and changed hard drive from 5400 to 7200. I was certainly unhappy and called to cancel the order and reorder a new one. I called for like 7 hours, they just transfer me from this department to that one. For every representative, I have to explain the whole story. Finally, I reached a manager who told me to not do so by offering me a $200 discount. I thought that's great, since I can buy a 7200 by myself. I also asked about the Witch 3 copy, since I am really interested, and he told me that it will come with the laptop.
The order is a next-day shipping, which should arrive on 4/16, but it comes one week after, and a representative called me that there will be a compensation (turns out to be a joke).
OK here comes the problem. Dell representatives can only give customers $200 maximum. So they cannot give me $100 from the bag and $200 from keeping the order, which makes it $300. They let me chose to keep the bag and get $250, or return the bag (will be refunded) and have $250. Why I have to make such choice? It's your internal problem to have the 200 limitation! It's the first time Dell broke its promise. For the same reason, the representative told me he cannot offer me compensation for the delay, since I already got $200. OK, so why are you telling me that there will be compensation? You can certainly check records and find this! I am not responsible for the failure of Dell's internal communication and somewhat 200 limitation. Does that mean you can do whatever bad things to your customers by offering $200? In addition, there's no promised Witch 3.
Dell promised me a backpack, $200 discount, and an unknown compensation (and the game). But I actually got merely $200. I lost 15 hours for like nothing. I don't care about the small money, but if you, Dell, cannot redeem these promises, please don't make them. I always believed that Dell has very good customer care, but it actually taught me how bad could it be. They just don't know what each other is doing, and kick me here and there and don't take responsibilities. I heard many times "Sir, don't worry, I will take good care of it.""Sir, I will definitely resolved the problem." Yes, they are nice people but they don't do things.
I wish someone from Dell U.S. may see this post and resolve my problems, and hopefully to improve your call center, and make it easier for future customers. I already had this enough and didn't think I will come back or recommend unless the problems resolved. Outsourcing is risky, so please pick a reliable partner.
Thank you Chris M for your reply, wish we could settle this done.
Hi PJBZZ100,

The Colts practiced without wide receiver T.Y. Hilton last Wednesday, but he returned to work the next day and played against the Jaguars in last Sunday's loss.
This week started out the same way although Hilton's now listed with a shoulder issue rather than a groin problem, but things veered in a different direction on Thursday. Hilton remained out of practice as the Colts continued their preparations for Sunday's game against the Texans.
Tight end Eric Ebron (back, illness) also missed a second straight day of practice and seven other players joined them on the sideline Thursday, so Friday's practice and injury report will let us know if the team's been managing their workload or if they're at risk of missing the game.
If it is the latter, it would be a big blow for the Colts as their playoff hopes would be dealt a serious blow if they fall to 6-7 this weekend.

It would be really good if the tower were put to good use instead of killing more innocent scimitars and others. This might also be a challenge that bixler might not necessarily win.

Hobbies of a person are considered from the third house. If Mars and Mercury share an aspect relationship with this house, then the person will be associated with the profession of writing. The fifth house leads a person to acquire proper education to fulfill his desires and interests. The tenth house is the house of his occupation. If these three houses are combined or share an aspect relationship with each other, then it will be auspicious for the writer.
The fifth house is the house of entertainment. If this house has an auspicious influence, then the writer will write on entertainment and drama. If there is an auspicious influence on the third house, then he will have a biography book on his name. His biography will reflect the experiences of his life. Signs such as Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn are considered auspicious for a writer. If the planets associated with the writer are located in these signs, then he will successful in his profession.
Important Planets : Role of Mercury, Mars and Jupiter in the Birth-chart
A relationship between Mars and Mercury is mandatory in the birth chart of writers. It is because if Mercury is pen, then Mars is ink. Any of these planets alone will not be influential. Presence of both these planets in the birth chart will have much stronger impact. However, if these two planets form a relationship with Jupiter, then the person will become a great scholar and write very good books. It is because Jupiter is the karak planet of knowledge.
Mercury is the Karak of intelligence. Jupiter tells about the way of thinking of a person. If they both are strong in the birth-chart, the person will become a scholar or a critic.
Influences of Other Planets:
(1) If the tenth lord is placed with Jupiter in the tenth house in the Gemini sign, then the person will write plays. Similarly, if Venus is placed with the tenth house/lord in the Gemini sign, then he will become a literary writer. If Jupiter and Mercury are in conjunction in the tenth house of the birth-chart, then the person will write his autobiography.
(2) If Gemini is in the tenth house in the sign of Virgo Ascendant. And if in this sign, Mars, Mercury and Jupiter are placed together, then he will get a chance to write news or script of a movie or he will work as an editor.
(3) Mercury is known as the karak planet of speech. Mercury should be strong in the birth-chart for any kind of work. Jupiter is the karak of knowledge. If these two planets form a relationship, then the person will write philosophy. If Mercury and Jupiter share a relationship with Venus, then he will become a poet.
(4) Venus is the Karak of acting, entertainment, music and dance. Therefore, if Mercury and Venus form a yoga in the birth-chart, the person will write on entertainment and literature.
(5) According to Astrology, Moon is the karak of heart. If Moon is in conjunction with the tenth house/lord, and Mars and Mercury form a relationship with the third house, then the person will be imaginative and use rhetoric language and simile in his writing.
(6) The person will have a potential to write high level poems, if the ninth lord is in the sign of Mercury in the Libra Ascendant. Or if Venus is located in the second house with the eleventh lord and Mars is the second lord located in the fifth house with the Yogakarak Saturn.

When making the brave decision to seek treatment for a drug use problem, it is important to be selective about the drug and alcohol treatment programs in which you enroll in. Although most treatment centers share the same goal of assisting clients in overcoming addiction, every program won't be the right fit for you. Addiction is a very complex disease which requires individualized treatment and care. It is very important to ensure that you enroll in a program which is willing and able to cater to all of your unique needs. Things to take into consideration when enrolling in drug and alcohol treatment programs include:
Taking all of these factors into consideration will help you find the best drug treatment programs to help suit your needs.
Are you concerned, or maybe even in denial that you have a drug and/or alcohol use problem? Common signs of a substance use problem include:
You can also ask yourself the following questions if you are unsure if you should seek treatment:

Over the past couple of weeks the sheep have begun to look a bit hot! In the day they've been spotted sitting under the trees in the shade, avoiding the heat of the sun and wandering around as the cool of the day arrives. However, the wind has been cold, so we were undecided as to when to shear.
Colin Morley is the one who has taught me to shear; a patient man was needed! Last year I managed to shear 20 (with much guidance) and this year I managed about 50 (again with guidance). The technique is difficult to pick up with pin toes here and there, clenching with your knees and holding with your thighs as well as manipulating the machine so that you don't find yourself in a tangle. I am not quite there with my technique but I am determined to improve.
I feel people have a misunderstanding of shearing, as though we do it for fun and not for the good of the sheep. It doesn't hurt the sheep and the sheep are relieved to get their thick wool off. Unless you have stuck your fingers into the wool of a sheep you cannot comprehend how hot it gets for them in that wool. The wool keeps them toasty in snow, so the heat in summer would be unbearable for them if we did not shear.
So, out in our field now we have our flock of freshly sheared sheep, some a bit tufty, others looking good. They are happy because they're not over heating and I am happy because I've proved to myself that I can shear more than I thought I could, even through the aching, tiredness and sunburn that I was experiencing. It is a day I am undecided on; do I love it? or do I dread it? I think...it's love. The sense of achievement and the helpful little team makes me feel proud. It's a day I used to look forward to as a child and now I am part of the shearing team.

News: Sporting Achievements
Y5/6 Girls Football 2017-18 - The best Girls' Football team in the whole of Leeds!
15 July 2018
Our Girls Football team are officially the best in the whole of Leeds! After qualifying for the City Finals as a result of a tough league season, the team went to Priesthorpe High School to contest the championship. In the semi-final we played St Paul's, managing to take the lead through Jess' goal. Even though St Paul's equalised we held firm over extra time and the game eventually went to penalties. Emily and Sukhmann were very brave and scored theirs, whilst Gopika made some brilliant saves and stopped St Paul's, and we were through to the final! In the final we played Holy Family, a team who had scored 178 goals in the league this season! We played our best football of the season, with Jess managing to score right before half time. Holy Family piled on the pressure in the second half but the team consistently put in committed tackles, with Gopika making more fantastic saves! With Megan scoring the goal of the season on the break, beating two players and powering the ball into the goal, sealed the final 2-0 result and provided a great end to a great season - What an incredible achievement!
Y5/6 Boys Football 2017-18 - League Winners for the 2nd year in a row!
15 July 2018
Our Boys' Football team had an incredible season and managed to win the league! We gave everything all season and everyone's effort counted as we won the title for the second straight season! By winning our league we qualified for a knockout tournament against the winners of other leagues. After 5 minutes of our first round game against Woodlesford we were 2-0 down. Despite being in a losing position, we kept battling away and got back into it with two quick goals in the second half, we then scored another to win it 3-2 in extra time! Although we lost in the quarterfinals, we were still one of the best 8 teams in the whole of Leeds, out of 80 schools! We were also two games away from representing the whole of Leeds at the County Finals, which is great achievement!
Y5/6 Girls Tag Rugby 2017-18 - The best Girls' Tag Rugby team in the whole of Leeds, for the 4th year in a row!
15 July 2018
Our Girls Tag Rugby team are officially the best in the whole of Leeds, for the 4th year running! We won our games in the qualifying tournament 4-0, 4-1 and 4-0. By topping our group it meant we qualified for the City Finals. We went to those finals and played against the best teams from across Leeds. The other teams were really good, but we managed to win all our games, showing great resilience and teamwork to win the title. All the hard work was worth it, and now we'll always be able to call ourselves city champions!
Y6 Tag Rugby teams 2017-18 - The best Tag Rugby team in the whole of Leeds!
15 July 2018
We officially have the best Tag Rugby team in the whole of Leeds! We also took three Y6 teams to a Tag Rugby regional tournament, which was a great experience and it was brilliant to see so many children representing the school brilliantly! One team won all their games at Regionals and qualified for the City Finals. At the finals they won all our group games, and also the quarter final and the semi final. We managed to get all the way to the final against Lower Wortley, who had won it the previous two years. There were no tries in the final, but lots of amazing tagging. It went all the way to extra time, and next try wins. Lower Wortley even started with the ball again, so we had to stop them before we had a chance to attack ourselves. Alfie managed to break through to score the try which made us the best team in the whole of Leeds, but we wouldn't have gotten anywhere near that point without everyone giving everything they had throughout the tournament, and especially in the final! By winning the city title we also qualified to represent the whole of Leeds at the County Finals. It was a really tough format but we only lost one game; we showed great resilience and we have won 16 out of our 17 games we played this year which is amazing! The Y6 team's results were: Group Stage: Won 4-1 vs Churwell Won 6-0 vs Tranmere Park Won 5-4 vs Holy Family Won 3-2 vs Talbot Quarter Finals: Won 5-3 vs Woodlesford Semi-finals: Won 3-1 vs Holy Trinity Final: Won 1-0 vs Lower Wortley
Y5/6 Hockey teams 2017-18 - Wetherby Tournament Winners!
14 July 2018
This year we travelled to Wetherby High School for a Hockey tournament. Both teams did really well to qualify from their groups and reach the semi-finals. Unfortunately, one team lost their semi, but our other team made it to the final, winning 1-0 to win the whole tournament! Well done to both our teams who played excellent Hockey and demonstrated great teamwork skills!
Y5/6 Cross Country teams 2017-18
14 July 2018
We took a team of boys and a team of girls from each Y5 & 6 classes from both our schools. Everyone ran brilliantly, especially as it was a lot of children's first time running competitively. We even managed to get our Y5 boys team to the city finals, with Zak also qualifying to represent the whole of Leeds at the County Finals! A special mention also to Ollie in Y6 for qualifying as an individual runner to the City Finals!
Y5/6 Netball teams 2017-18 - 3rd Place in the East of Leeds and Regional Runners-up!
14 July 2018
Our Netball squad had a great season this year; we managed to finish 3rd in the league out of all the teams in the East of Leeds! We also took two teams to the regional tournament where both teams played very well, with one team even making it all the way to the final! Unfortunately we lost the final 1-0, just missing out on qualifying for the next round. The children should be very proud of their efforts regardless!
Y5 Tag Rugby teams 2017-18 - City Finalists!
14 July 2018
We took three Y5 teams to the Tag Rugby tournament. All our teams played brilliantly and one team even managed to win the regional tournament and qualify for the City Finals! Not only that, we won almost all our games against other teams which were made up of Y6 players. We went to the Tag Rugby City finals and we played really well. We got off to a tough start and actually lost our first match; the team we lost to were the two time reigning champions and we only just lost 4-3. We managed to win some games as well to finish in 13th place, out of 150 teams across the City! It was a great experience, especially to also support the Y6 team, and we can't wait to try again next year.
Y6 Cycling team
16 November 2017
Our excellent Y6 cyclists took part in the Tour De Yorkshire, where they cycled between Shadwell and Wigton Moor Primary Schools. The baton was well received from Thorner Primary, by our whole school, and all of our children demonstrated their cycling skills and their brilliant road safety awareness during the event. Well done to everyone involved!

Project Statement
I don't have one story to tell. This thought weaves its way through Life Event - as words in a sentence and as the undercurrent that drags the speaker along. The poetry accumulates and radiates around a mass, some event or occurrence, some precipitating cause or node and which, ultimately, doesn't matter. What matters is to enliven the circuit we all travel as we construct and deconstruct identity, as we try to find our-selves, and as we seek to balance a drive toward coherence with a fumbling sense that the only logic available is an abrupt and incomplete one.
This is a poem hungry for the emphatic or the manic, an exploration of what we gave away when we give of ourselves. - AMRI Journal

This is a revision of the original "Face to Face". I eliminated the strings attached to each can, and added a wireless antenna in it's place. The idea behind this was to make a wireless can phone, a much-needed-upgrade of the string can phone. Imagine trying to explain what a wired phone is to an eight year old. Aghh, what a headache!
Sigh… I designed this revision because the original was rejected for being "Off-Topic". Well, it was more complicated than that. I've been seriously thinking if I should even write about what happened this week. And after much thought and consideration, I don't think it deserves more attention than it has received. The complete "saga" can be found here. I do want to say this: I participate in the Derbies because it is fun and because I socialize with other artists and non-artists. It is not set in my mind to make any enemies there, ever…
Update (10/27/11): +129 votes / 29th place (in only a day and a half)
Update (10/31/11): Now, this was a very pleasant surprise. After all the struggle last week with submissions and revisions, Woot granted my design with a Honorable Mention, for the second week in a row! Now I have two designs competing in the next Double Take Down 🙂

Can I Just Use A Drain Snake?
Drain snakes are a great temporary solution in a pinch, but the result is rarely permanent. Most of the time, drain snakes merely displace the debris to another place in the pipes. The regular flow of water will eventually push the debris back to the location where the clog initially occurred.
With our jet wash system, our plumbing experts go through a step-by-step process to make sure that all of your pipes are clear. No guesswork, just results.
When you schedule an appointment with one of our professionals, they'll do a complete inspection of your sewer line with a camera attached to a snake. With that, they'll be able to assess the condition of your pipes and check for blockages, cracked pipes, and faulty materials.
After the initial inspection has been completed, our experienced techs will guide the special washer down where the clogs out and wash it out. After the wash has been completed, the tech will re-insert the camera back into the line to make sure the clog has been fully cleared. This ensures that your clog is flushed out completely and your pipes can perform at an optimal level.

Nous connaissons des gens

We Know People.
Many of our clients are international and increasingly our searches are borderless: the best candidates may be anywhere in the world.
We are proud members of a global network of international executive search partners that together form an exclusive alliance of leading independent executive search firms, active over the world's major time zones.
Together, Panorama has over 30 offices and over 80 partners across Europe, Australasia, The Americas, Africa and Asia. Panorama was founded with a like-minded approach to quality work and shared values and ethics.
21 Global Partner Firms
170 Consultants
140 Researchers
40 Offices
We operate beyond geographical constraints which means each of our partners offer clients both global capability and local sensitivity. We have a long track record of advising clients at the most senior level in our own markets and through Panorama, we share a strategic commitment to excellence.
Search strategy has evolved significantly over the last 15 years. While the size of one's "Rolodex" used to matter, the Internet and social media has greatly levelled the playing field and all but neutered the advantage once held by those who simply knew more people.
Finding the people, though time consuming and critical, is no longer the hardest part of the process. Global capability means finding candidates anywhere; local sensitivity is the critically important element of knowing the ins and outs of your client and being able to tell the world a compelling and credible story on your behalf.
PANORAMA PARTNER PROFILEOur global partners have a depth of experience working across all sectors: private, public and non-profit. We'd like to introduce you to some of the leading players in their respective markets who make up the Panorama team.

To say that our firm has experienced growth since we first opened our doors would be a flippin' big understatement, as my new Kiwi friends would say.

Birmingham Airport (BHX) announced on 29th June 2017 its plans to consult on changing the designation of a flightpath known as "MOSUN" from a "non-designated" route to a "designated "route.
This consultation period for this flightpath was due to end on 9th October, and has since been extended twice – to the 9th November and finally to the 16th November. These extensions have been granted by BHX following pressure from local Cllrs and the Edgbaston MP about the poor quality of community consultation with the Edgbaston, Harborne and Quinton communities. This anger locally was clearly shown at the 16th October consultation meeting.
This is a statement agreed by the CRS Committee following consideration of the issues raised by the consultation process and the information provided. There are a number of key issues, which, in the Committee's view, have not been taken into account by BHX in assessing the impact of designating the MOSUN flightpath as a "standard" route for departures.
There are four key issues, which are detailed further in this response:
Throughout this consultation period, there has been a great deal of confusion about information released by BHX on the number of flights forecast to use MOSUN. This is especially concerning in regards to the suggested huge variation in flights over our area – ranging from 500 in 2016 to proposals of between 2000 and 7500 by 2023!
But what is also of concern is that BHX are not consulting on the longer-term impact of MOSUN beyond 2023. BHX have an approved 2030 Master Plan, which shows a potential growth in total BHX traffic. This could well result in the number of flights via MOSUN being in excess of 15,000. BHX are now preparing their 2045 Master Plan, which may well show an even greater growth in flights (possibly up to 22,000?). BHX will not be consulting on this new plan till Spring 2018.
In addition no alternatives for a flightpath to the line proposed for this MOSUN flightpath have been considered to take traffic away from our sensitive communities, due to the BHX view that MOSUN was an "established" route.
In addition, there is a complete lack of explanation and an absence of an environmental (noise, pollution/air quality, etc) impact assessment on the impact of MOSUN as new "standard" route. Given that the MOSUN flightpath will take approx 70/75% of the residential communities affected by BHX departures and covers one of the greatest concentrations of essential health facilities in the West Midlands, and flies over some 20+ schools and 2 university campuses and a statutory SSSI (Edgbaston Pool), this is of enormous concern.
It is therefore the view of the CRS Committee that this consultation has been poorly designed and flawed in conception from the outset. The attached statement sets down our further reasons and evidence for coming to this conclusion on the basis of prematurity, inadequate consultation and absence of a detailed impact assessment.

LOVE AND LUST Part II: Long Term Love
|I love the chemistry of this couple.
I got married in 1971, and back then, I didn't understand what I do now about long term relationships. As I've said so many times before, I got lucky. I stumbled along the path of hearts and flowers, probably because my head has always been safely tucked in a rich fantasy life. I remember things as no one else does and I've stopped second-guessing this and just accepted this fantasy world as being every bit as real as anything else I've actually experienced.

Plumstead has broken ground on the community building for the public park in its Carriage Hill subdivision.
Township Manager Carolyn McCreary said the Joseph Hanusey Community Park will likely not open until after the building has been finished, because of the construction zone there. Depending on the weather, the park should open by next summer, she said.
The community building will hold a snack stand, restrooms and a multipurpose room, which McCreary said could hold �anything from baby showers to classes people or the township organize.�
The park will also hold three basketball fields, three soccer fields and a baseball field. She said the park will also have the first lighted fields in the township.
Because of an expected increase in maintenance costs for the lighted fields, the township will likely discuss changing its fee structure for use of the fields.
The park was named in April after fallen police Officer Joseph Hanusey, who died in a car accident on Route 611 while on duty 11 years ago.

Taking directly from nature and utilising a vintage medium, Kohler's Petaline basin [$1000] is both organic in form and striking in vision. Inspired by a single petal, it is a generous benchtop basin in cast iron with black enamel finish. The 615mm long basin is counter-balanced to create a vision of elegance and seemingly impossible poise. The beautifully organic and striking shape of the Petaline creates a bold visual focus in any bathroom and works equally well with natural stone and metals; or timber and glass. Designed to sit atop a counter or vanity the basin can be installed with bench-mounted mixer taps or wall-mounted tapware. And while polished chrome tapware is an obvious pairing the Petaline will work equally well with the increasing popular rose gold finish.
Petaline measures 615mm wide, 310mm [back to front] and sits 133mm proud of the vanity-top. Bold shapes are essential when selecting tapware for the Petaline: consider the statuesque Purist Single Lever Basin Mixer [5 star WELS] or the beautifully clean lines of the Stillness [4 star WELS $827] and Loure [5 star WELS $620] wall-mounted basin mixers.

The other day, while en route to my first class, I passed through the Great Hall of Freshmen (more commonly known as the union building). Flocks of new university students, safe in their validating host of high-school friends, squawked and honked from their perches while those of us with real classes scurried by, hunched over and happily flock-less.
Now, maybe you say I'm being a jerk for assuming they were all freshmen. That's probably true. Maybe I'm unfairly biased against students who don't appear to be doing anything on campus besides skipping English 1010 and flirting. In fact, I'd be more worried about offending one-fourth of The Signpost's readership if I thought freshmen actually read the paper, but I don't think they know where to find one. And I can only feel so bad about teasing a generation that never really had to use VCRs.
Anyway, I found my hallway progress decelerated by a wide and slow-moving gaggle of these lovely young people. Their conversation, filled with thrilling tales of high-school football and late-night pranks, all spoken out from underneath the razor-straight bills of their vintage baseball hats, was, fortunately, loud enough so that all students in the hallway could feel included.
And I was really enjoying my involuntary eavesdropping, right up until one of the freshmen took offense at his buddy's teasing.
"Dude!" yelled Bro No. 1. "That's retarded. Stop being so gay."
"You're the gay one, retard," Bro No. 2 returned.
And so on.
I was mortified. You see, no one I knew had used either of these words in a derogatory context since, I don't know, the year 2003. But apparently, this is still a problem, and, as a columnist of mild renown (my mom reads every week), I plan to fix this dilemma with any one of the following solutions:
Solution 1: Explain to the freshmen that using the words "gay" and "retarded" in a disapproving context is literally inaccurate.
For instance, expressing disapproval over receiving a parking ticket by calling the parking ticket "gay" would not work, because that ticket is most likely not interested in engaging other parking tickets of the same gender romantically.
Solution 2: Explain to the freshmen that use of the words "gay" and "retarded" in the pejorative sense (meaning "an expression of contempt or disapproval") is politically incorrect and just plain wrong.
Speaking in this way assigns a negative connotation (non-literal meaning) to those words. Now, I know that most people who use these words are using them in a meaningless manner as verbal packing peanuts. They could just as well be saying, "You're so bread" or "Stop being a rock."
I know this because (this anecdote is very shaming — please forgive me afterwards) when I was in the seventh grade, the trendy adjective sweeping through the ranks of my fellow students and me was the word (again, so sorry!) "Jewish." Missed foul shots were "Jewish." Malfunctioning TI-83 calculators were "Jewish." When a friend was acting the fool, he was (I feel like such a moron now) "being Jewish."
Of course, growing up in a suburb of Northern Utah, few of us had ever actually met a Jewish person, nor would we have known we had if we did. And if there was anyone of Jewish descent among us, we made pretty darn sure that it was not a safe place for them to reveal their heritage.
As an adult, I know that the Jewish-American population is beyond value, especially in the charitable and forgiving way they've treated journalists who are brave enough to share humiliating anecdotes from their idiotic childhoods. And thankfully, that fad-word passed quickly enough from the lips of my friends and me for us to avoid any major lawsuits. We then moved on to other words, like "gay" and "retarded," which brings us to . . .
Solution 3: Replace the words "gay" and "retarded" with other words.
Since these freshmen don't seem to be intentionally using these words to negatively describe the homosexual or mentally disabled populations ('cause if they are, well, that's a whole different column I'll need to write), perhaps they just need a verbal binky, as it were.
Here are a few suggestions: "gelastic," "waggish," "anathematized," "rock," "silly," "Mormon" (kidding!), "Bieber," "freshman," "meretricious" and "bad."
Solution 4: The rest of the student population gets to walk around campus with squirt guns and spray freshmen in the face every time they use the words "gay" or "retarded" inappropriately.
The squirt guns could also be used to discourage them from wearing stupidly large headphones or putting their hats on backward.
Now, my intention in writing this is not to offend, nor to enact sweeping social change. Hopefully, this column is just a happy reminder of one way to speak more intelligently and respectfully.
And, again, sorry about that whole "Jewish" thing. I was 13 and pretty retarded.

Developed to ease beginners into a regime that took them from little or no running experience to being able to finish a 5 kilometre run in just nine weeks, the programme started with a mix of running and walking, gradually building up fitness and stamina slowly, therefore creating realistic expectations and making the challenge feel achievable from day one. Speaking about the success achieved by the Couch to 5k programme participants, Councillor Trevor Wilson, Chair of Mid Ulster District Council said, "This challenge was for everyone, whether they'd never run before or if their aim was to get back into being more active. "As a group training and exercise programme it provided the perfect opportunity to get fit and healthy in a welcoming and encouraging environment, which can be seen by the large numbers of people who not only joined but stuck at it over the nine weeks. Well done to all on this achievement!" The Council has plans to run further Couch to 5k programmes in the new year and in the meantime, the weekly Parkrun at Mid Ulster Sports Arena can provide a way to keep up the good work!

DRC: Cobalt Supply Chain Pressures Rising
As the DRC seemingly heads towards elections slated for 23 December this year (see The DRC: No Pressure, No Problem), the only other topic as popular as Kabila's succession or candidacy in business circles is the flurry of mining activity in the country. Government contract renegotiations, miners' volatile stock prices, disputes and injunctions, the upturn in commodity prices and reputation-damaging NGO investigations have all dragged the DRC's mining industry back into the international limelight.
In this note we explore the increased scrutiny of cobalt mining supply chains in the DRC. Click here to download the article.

Let's face it… it's not even close to being easy when we're on a NEW or ongoing fitness journey. Well, any journey for that matter. It can be hard…REALLY hard. And while we're in the thick of it surrounded by people doubting us, judging us, and tempting us to cheat it can be difficult to see the end result. But there are a few tricks that I've learned to rely on, and here they are!
1 – Don't depend on things to make you happy. A lot of people tend to count on other things to make them happy or they'll add an "if" to it. I mean, how many of you have said "I'll be happy when I lose 10 pounds." OR "If I get to leave work early today THEN I'll be happy." Well, here's the secret to it – YOU are the only thing your happiness depends on. If you depend on an outside source or a future wish, you're setting yourself up for disappointment.
Try this: wake up every morning and think of one thing that you're happy for. If you're my two of my best friends, it would probably be your cat (yeah, you know which cat ladies you are!). I don't have a dog or a kid to be up in my face making me happy…but I do remind myself how thankful I am for the ability to get up and workout. Not everyone has the ability to get that endorphin rush early in the morning!!
2- Change what you associate happiness with! This was a huge moment for me. I used to associate happiness with sleeping in, drinking every weekend, and watching hours upon hours of television on the couch. Now, I'm not saying that those things don't still make me happy, but I certainly don't depend on them to BE happy! Instead, make your WORKOUT your happy boost. Make the healthy dinner that you prepare for yourself and your family your happy boost. Be happy that you made a healthier choice than you would have made the day before!
3- STOP Comparing Yourself! If I could stand up on stage and yell this out to people in the crowd, I would. Lately I've been focusing in on this more than ever before. I realized that when I would get on social media I would get SAD. I would think "man, everyone else is so successful…why hasn't it happened for me yet?" Or, I would think "everyone already knows about Beachbody, there's nobody left for me to coach." Which is TOTALLY wrong. It's just that I focused in on OTHER people and not myself and MY journey.
So, instead of focusing in on other people focus on JUST YOU. Set a goal and type it out on your phone, write it down, or tell someone! I mean, I'm all ears if you need me! It can be as simple as pushing further in your workout than you did the day before. It can be as hard as changing professions. The possibilities are endless and you'll never get frustrated if you just focus on YOU and leave everyone else out of the picture.
4- Make happiness the only option. There's always a time in everyones life when they get "sick and tired of being sick and tired." For me, I was sick of being sad about the way my body looked and sad about my strength. I was sick of feeling unhappy over something that takes TIME to change. So, I chose to be happy from THIS DAY FORWARD. No, it hasn't been all butterflies and rainbows… I have to work hard everyday, but it's been so much easier since changing my mindset!
5- Keep your eye on the prize. Usually about 2 weeks into your journey you'll start to feel the effects of busting your booty and you'll get TIRED. This is the point where you need to remember WHY you started. Is your goal in front of you everyday? No?? Then make it! Print a picture of your goal and put it on your mirror or desk at work. It could be a bikini you want to buy, a vacation you want to earn or a student loan you want to payoff! Just make sure it's a big goal that you're ready to WORK for! This way, when you're in the dark moments and you want to give up…your goal is staring back at you and reminding you to never give up!
Be happy. Choose Happy. In your fitness journey, your business or your LIFE in general.

Tuesday 26 April, 2016 - A local couple who purchased their Saturday Gold Lotto ticket in Coolangatta will be checking in at the First Class counter at the International Airport after winning more than $1 million in the weekend's draw.
The winners said they're looking forward to a lot more leg room next time they travel after their 12-game QuickPick scored a division one prize of $1,001,230.87 in the weekend's Saturday Gold Lotto draw!
"I went into the newsagency on Sunday to check my Saturday Gold Lotto ticket and the staff member looked at me and said, 'I think you've won first division!' the delighted winner explained.
"I didn't jump up and down or scream so the fellow said to me he couldn't believe I was so calm! I suppose it's because I've always said I was going to win lotto – mind you I've said that for about 40 years! Although I did comment to my wife only a few weeks ago that I had a good feeling I was going to win soon!
"We've already told our family the exciting news; our daughter started to cry because she was just so happy for us!

The division one winning entry was purchased from Coolangatta News and Lotto, Shop 2, 6 Griffiths Street in Coolangatta.
Greg Doherty is the owner of Coolangatta News and Lotto and was happy to add another division one win to the outlet's tally.

"We sold two division one winning entries last year. We had a $2.7 million division one winning store syndicate in the Megadraw in January, and we sold a $1 million Wednesday Gold Lotto winning entry in October. Hopefully we can go one better this year and get a hat trick of first division wins in 2016!"

The VW Golf GTI, launched in 1975, was the blueprint for the 'Hot Hatch'. Combining performance and good looks with practicality, the Golf won instant acclaim and, now on its fifth generation, has become one of the most prolific and modified cars of all time.
The car instantly won favour with tuners and modifiers, and today the Golf remains one of the most popular project cars with performance tuners. A thriving support structure of clubs, specialist magazines and parts suppliers ensures that the Golf, in all its forms, will remain popular with tuning enthusiasts for many years to come.
