What do you do for an encore after catching seventeen innings of baseball?
When you're Milwaukee Brewers catcher Martin Maldonado, you hit a walk-off home run to end your knees' misery.
Perhaps with Khris Davis, Maldonado's teammate who nearly lost a round-tripper for almost missing home on his trot last week, in mind, the catcher slid into the plate as a mob of his teammates celebrated.
"I had never done it before," Maldonado told reporters. "It was hard to get back up. Everybody was on top of me."
The dinger gave Milwaukee a 7-6 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks in front of the Miller Park Sunday faithful. It stopped a ten-game slide for the Brew Crew. Most importantly for Maldonado, it ended the pain of spending half of a five hour, 49-minute game crouched down.

Supply Chain Partnering: A Comprehensive Framework of Interorganizational Adaptation
chain practice reveals that a relatively high share of partnering
intents still do not meet the proposed objectives, despite the many
theoretical promises. The related bodies of literature, such as
operations and information systems, increasingly acknowledge that this
lack of success might be better understood through exploring the
behavioral rather than technical or economic dimensions of partnering.
Nonetheless, this call for research has scarcely been filled to date.
Therefore, the aim of this doctoral project has been to develop a
comprehensive framework of interorganizational adaptation (IOAD) in
supply chain partnerships. A first part of the dissertation "zooms
out" and relates IOAD with economic and technical concerns of
partnering. The developed multidisciplinary lens of partnerships draws a
more complete picture of partnering than separate bodies of literature
in isolation. A second part of the dissertation "zooms in" and
develops in-depth IOAD and its relationship with power and
interorganizational learning (IOL). The empirical qualitative study –
at both ends of six buyer supplier dyads in the European food and
packaging industry respectively – reveals that the behavioral view
aids in understanding several otherwise paradoxical situations. It also
illustrates how "learning to collaborate" processes lead towards
concreting adaptations and that power is a dynamic concept: the mix of
different types of "learning to collaborate ("learning with"
versus "learning from") depends on the degree of power imbalance,
but the same "learning to collaborate" processes may reduce this
power imbalance. The dissertation is a collection of four papers and
contributes by providing a testable framework of IOAD, a relevant but
ambiguously treated concept to date.

A holidaymaker who suffered a heart attack as he flew home to the Midlands has been reunited with the Birmingham Airport police officers who helped save his life.
David Jackson collapsed as he waited for his luggage after arriving on a flight from Majorca last October.
Officers from the airport policing unit raced to help but found him not breathing and without a pulse.
They used a defibrillator to deliver an electric shock to David's heart and he quickly began breathing unaided again.
David, from Penkridge, near Stafford, thanked the officers in person when they visited the Riverside House sheltered housing complex, where he lives, just days before his 70th birthday.
"I would not be alive today if it wasn't for them," he said.
"I don't remember anything until I was in the hospital but I know they stayed with me until the paramedics arrived.
"I really appreciate what they did for me.
"I had sent the officers a picture of me just to remind them of whose life they saved, but we thought it would be even better to thank them in person."
Insp Keith Wiseman praised airport officers PCs David O'Neill, Kevin Cartwright and Paul Ingram for their actions.
"It was fantastic that David was able to show his gratitude to the officers involved in saving his life," he said.
"This is also a powerful example of just how good the piece of equipment used is and will hopefully encourage more people to be aware that they exist in key locations."
Debbie Brownlie, from Riverside House, said: "David's family and I wanted to convey our thanks and gratitude for the officers' help.
"I know well the split decisions you face when confronted with a life-or-death situation.
"I am truly grateful they were able to put their training to very good use."

Have You Seen the Spectacular Leaping Ability of a Hooked Atlantic Salmon? [VIDEO]
Taking the famed Atlantic salmon by dry fly is amazing. Watching them leap after being hooked is insane.
Fishing the northern peninsula in Newfoundland can be as good as it gets.
READ MORE: Potential new world record Caribou taken in Newfoundland
This is a great example of the epic leaps that salmon make once they feel the hook. You'll be getting the fly rod out shortly after watching this.
The Latin name for the Atlantic salmon is Salmo salar; salar meaning "leaper." It's a well-earned moniker as they are known for their ferocious jumping ability.
Widely known as a fish of the eastern coast of North America, the Atlantic salmon is native to parts of western Europe as well.
When we can catch a fish that takes a dry fly and launches into the air like they do, it's time to start planning a trip to the nearest Atlantic salmon river.

Karamia Quiriconi: Today was awesome! We went to a talent show. Abby was in it with Callie and Lila. They did really good. We had to pack up. We have to wake up early tomorrow!
Abby Kellett: Today we started out the day with the morning celebration, followed by morning devotion. This of course was after breakfast. We then moved on to Bible Study and morning recreation. In Bible Study we talked about speaking up for people. In rec, we played a lot of really fun games.
After that we went to have a delicious lunch. The senior campers went to Sixth Sense and had an ice cream party. Meanwhile other campers hung out in the cabins. We went to missions and camper's choice next. In missions we talked about El Salvador refugees. Camper's choice is where the camper chooses from a variety of activities (I chose drama).
Before supper, we had free time. You can go to the camp store, hang out with friends, go to the pool, play gaga ball, which we also do in any extra time we find, etc.
After worship and worship response we prepared the Variety Show. Everyone was able to show their talent (if they wanted to and/or made the auditions). I sang 'Titanium.' Everyone dressed up as the theme, Superheroes. We are now getting ready for bed and packing up. Today was awesome!!
Our theme word for today was SPEAK. I know you parents know your kids are good at this. :) In Bible study campers studied three stories of Jesus from the Gospel of Mark. Each story gave an account of Jesus speaking up for the oppressed. They also talked about ways they can speak out for people.
In our worship response time tonight each camper talked about how they saw God this week (you should ask them this when they get home - you will be impressed with their answers) and they also said things they can stand up for and speak out for when they get home.
Our fun activity for the evening was the Variety Show. Several of our campers were a part of this show. Wow! FBC has some talented kids and you should be so proud!
Please remember us as we travel home tomorrow! I will send the last update tomorrow night.

Tubeless Conversion Fail
I have a bottle of Stan's tire sealant that's gathering dust in my storage area. I also have a wheelset with Mavic X819 rims that's tubeless ready and a pair of Kenda Nevegals to go with them. I figured I should go for gold and do the tubeless conversion.
I've been trying to flirt with the conversion several times but this time was the first time I was serious. Because this time I had a pail of soapy water. And according to the Stan's site, that's the way to go.
Well, so how did it go? If you're reading the title, you'd know I failed. After pouring about two cups of sealant to the tire and getting the side all wet with the soapy water, I still couldn't get it to hold air. I was pumping like a madman, but I achieved nothing.
Maybe I really need an air compressor to make this happen.
Or maybe I can just take it to the shop and have it converted there.

Bike Fit: Flipping the Stem
Lately I've been having problems with my shoulders and back when I ride my bike. During our Timberland ride this morning, Agu and King suggested that I flip the stem from a negative to a positive rise.
Now I have to be honest. I'm not a big fan of an upright stem primarily because of the looks. A negative rise stem on a hardtail cross-country bike makes one seem like a bad-ass bike racer, while the opposite screams newbie.
Well, for the benefit of my back, I pulled out the allen wrench a couple of hours ago and flipped the stem to a positive five degree angle. Judging from the pictures, it doesn't look that bad at all.
We'll be riding in La Mesa tomorrow (I love this four-day weekend). I'll find out if my shoulders and back would thank me for valuing substance over style then.
Well, I didn't get to ride La Mesa today because King forgot to bring his bike shoes, but I took advantage of the situation and rode around the La Mesa parking area to try my bike's new stem position. Judging from this few minutes of riding from the car to the gate then back up to pavilion, I must say that there's a significant change in terms of my comfort. Of course the true outcome will reveal itself after a few hours on the saddle, but as of now it's very promising.

Maintenance: Servicing the Crank Brothers Eggbeater Pedals
When I turned the pedal after lubing the chain yesterday, I knew there was something wrong with them. Maybe it's from all the long rides that I did or from all the power hosing it endured or probably a mix of both. Whatever the reason may be, one thing's for sure -- my pedals weren't turning as smoothly as they should be.
I bought this pair a year ago after I discovered that the wings of my old Eggbeaters were broken during the Livestrong ride. Now, after hundreds of kilometers of riding, these babies are crying out for some lovin'.
Quickly, I searched the internet for a step-by-step way to basically revive my pedals, and stumbled upon Pedal! Damn it!'s Crank Brothers Servicing blog entry. After reading it, I had all the tools needed to do some basic relubing except for the 8mm socket wrench.
I couldn't sleep well last night knowing that I was just a tool away from getting my pedals fixed. I had to get up at around two in the morning to pull out an 8mm allen wrench and remove the pedal from the crank.
I was glad that I was able to pull the pedal out easily. My past pedals felt like they were bonded to the crank when I tried to remove them.
Today, right after work, I went to the mall and got myself an 8mm socket wrench. After treating myself to dinner at Pepper Lunch, I hurried home to start the operation.
After removing the dust cap with a flathead screwdriver, I managed to pull out the bolt that was keeping everything together with my brand new socket wrench. When that was through, pulling out the spindle was as easy as pie. I removed the old grease with a rug and some degreaser, and applied a fresh coat of grease right after. After that, I rebuilt the pedal and attached it back to the crank arms.
I was ecstatic with how smooth it was when I turned it. Maybe I was a bike mechanic in my past life.
Now it's time to ride again!
Love the photo? I took that from Earthmound of Flickr.

Biking in Batangas City: The Tabangao via Dao Malampaya Trail
After last Sunday's cancelled Batangas Ride which brought me to Maarat instead of the city of steaming pancit guisado, I was determined to make take two successful.
I woke up at 4:30 in the morning and left Pioneer at about 5:00 a.m. One hour and P306.00 poorer (can you believe that's how much I have to pay in toll fees for just one way?), I was in my hometown. I parked the car at Eric's Carwash at the corner of P. Herrera and Noble streets, geared up, and joined Onad and Davison for a nice morning ride.
After climbing up Tabangao, we made a left turn at the top to a dirt road for some more climbing. This is where our dear friend, Carlito Benoza, used to live. During our afternoon rides years ago, we would see him go down this road on his BMX on his way to work.

A Sunday Afternoon with Agu
At least I was able to salvage the day and managed to ride in Maarat in the afternoon. Actually, I would say that it was a blessing in disguise because the ride was awesome. Joined by Agu Paiso of www.mynextbike.com, we rode the green trail, then down Roxas Boulevard, up to Araneta and back to the parking lot via the main road.
Except for some muddy sections, the trail condition was perfect -- just the right amount of stickiness for your knobbies! Mix in with some sunshine and cool breeze and you've got heaven on earth right there.
On the not so good side, the road to Timberland is still under repair, which means that we had to pass the old way through the city market with all the traffic. That's a major turnoff. I hope they fix that pretty soon.
All the photos courtesy of Agu.
Map of the ride to be posted soon.

Facilities Operations Management at Western University hired a handful of students to help maintain the campus during the winter.
"We have hired six part-time students to join our crews for winter operations," Michael Luneau Manager of Landscaping Services said. "Our students are a really big help in the really high priority pedestrian areas. [Salting] staircases and shoveling walkways that separate from buildings."
Carmen Bertone, Executive Director of Facilities Opertations Management says the department receives approximately 20-30 applications for a winter position.
While the program supports students financially, Luneau says students involved in fields such as landscaping and horticulture are attracted to the job to gain experience and to connect with professionals.
"You are putting yourself in a position with industry professionals looking to hire," Jim Swanson, a 4th year student in the Richard Ivey School of Business said. "One thing that employers admire is something they like. It's not just what you are like on paper, but what you are like in person."
Luneau says the opportunity is a good way for students to try out working in the industry and to see if they want to pursue a career in it.
Unlike the summer operations, students can only work 15 hours rather than 40 hours.
"We're really giving the students the time they need to support their studies," Luneau said. "While using their free time to reach the maximum."
Bertone says that the department has received positive feedback from participants, who often re-apply for a summer position.
"When we hire students, we think of them as part of the family," Bertone said.

Bills | LeSean McCoy bottled up in win
Sun, 24 Sep 2017 14:57:10 -0700
Buffalo Bills RB LeSean McCoy rushed 14 times for just 21 yards in Week 3 against the Broncos, although he did shake free for 48 yards on seven receptions.
Fantasy owners in PPR leagues weren't completely buried by the poor rushing performance, but those in standard formats were certainly not smiling. He'll look to get back on track in Week 4 in Atlanta.

Fragments of Joy
To escape from some of the unbearable heat of the day, barely dressed in their underwear, children play with the public fountain in a city in the south of France.
Marked on their faces by the cruelty of their relatives, kids still find a way to have fun without thinking of nothing ele that the water that conforts them in a barrel in the middle of a Favela, in Rio de Janeiro.
Other abandoned by their parents, jump and do pirouettes at a special day in the orphanage in which they live.
"Fragments of Joy" talks about these whether precious moments yet so ephemeral in the lives of these fragile beings who manage to escape from the least to the most painful things in the world, among bliss and joy.
The bed frames found in the street are painted with a portrait taken by the photographer. The fragmentation of the being expresses the impossibility of being one without the foundation of a family home. The facial expressions refer to the work of René Spitz, researcher on the abandonment of infants. And the relationship that the viewer creates with the painting refers to the attachment theory by the psychiatrist and psychoanalyst John Bowlby.
A video documentation shows the view of the artist in this late afternoon during a party at this orphanage located in Rio de Janeiro.
All works are named "Vol.N", prompting the artist to always continue this work that may never find an end.

We found this elegant stinkhorn growing in our flowerbed. It came up overnight. It is a mushroom that supposedly puts off a horrid smell. We found ours before it had a chance to begin to smell bad apparently.
I photographed it and then dug it up and disposed of it in the trash. From what I have read they can take over your garden and we have put a lot of work into our gardens. Plus this stinkhorn was found in our garden next to our front door and I didn't want to take a chance for it to start smelling rank.
The egg sac contained a new stinkhorn that had not yet emerged from the egg yet (I dissected the egg sac before throwing it away out of curiosity). This is the second elegant stinkhorn that has come up in our yard this season. Not sure why they have suddenly shown up. We have never seen these before anywhere in our region. They are not hard to miss against the green grass or the brown mulch. They are bright red and, at first glance, look like a finger. Sorta freaky at first glance. :)

While on holiday in Knysna, we visited the Garden of Eden, an indigenous forest halfway between Knysna and Plettenberg Bay. While walking the easy trail that winds through the forest, I came across this group of mushrooms. It looked like a fairy tea garden and I was waiting for the fairies to come out and play. A real unexpected gem!
Photo Location
Garden of Eden, South Africa.
I got out of my car at the mall and almost stepped on these amazing mushrooms growing in the curb area. They were so vibrantly red...fit for Alice in Wonderland! A wonderfully unexpected surprise. :)
My mother was taking her walk in the woods at the cottage and happened upon this fab mushroom. I snapped this shot after something took a bite out of the side.
Wild mushroom or toadstool I can just imagine a little fairy sticking her head out to peek at me!
I'm finding odd shaped and colored mushrooms in my yard. Some are pretty, some are not.

Forbes: Walmart workers cost taxpayers $6.2 billion in public assistance
It was found, just three years ago, that Walmart's low-wage workers actually cost U.S. taxpayers an estimated $6.2 billion in public assistance including food stamps, Medicaid and subsidized housing.
Using data from a 2013 study by Democratic staff from the U.S. Committee on Education and the Workforce, the "Americans for Tax Fairness" (a coalition of 400 national and state-level progressive groups) found, "The study estimated the cost to Wisconsin's taxpayers of Walmart's low wages and benefits, which often force workers to rely on various public assistance programs. It found that a single Walmart Supercenter cost taxpayers between $904,542 and $1.75 million per year, or between $3,015 and $5,815 on average for each of 300 workers."
The coalition then took the mid-point of that range, $4,415, and multiplied it by Walmart's approximately 1.4 million workers to come up with an estimate of the overall taxpayers' bill.
So, is Wal-Mart really cheaper? In the long run, it seems- no.
The report also provides a state-by-state breakdown of the numbers and Walmart's huge share of the nationwide SNAP, or food stamp, market: in 2013 Walmart had 18 percent of the SNAP market.
Back in 2014, Walmart spokesperson Randy Hargrove said that while the company had no internal figures to share about the number of employees who received public assistance:
"More than 99 percent of our associates earn above minimum wage. In fact, the average hourly wage for our associates, both full and part-time, is an average of $11.83 per hour. The bottom line is Walmart provides associates with more opportunities for career growth and greater economic security for their families than other companies in America. Our full and part-time workers get bonuses for store performance, access to a 401K-retirement plan, education and health benefits."
But it's not just that, the big box that is Walmart is killing small business. I don't shop at Walmart. I shop local, small business so that I know my money goes to my community, stays in my community, and benefits those who are invested in my community.

Background: Burns cause devastating injuries and a high incidence of severe physical and psychological impairment. Severe burns require specialized medical professionals and facilities for optimal recovery that require multiple surgeries, long hospital stays and rehabilitation. Surgical debridement and skin grafting is the standard of care for most burn patients. Maggot Debridement Therapy (MDT) is a modality that might be useful as an alternative to surgical debridement for wound bed preparation. This could be an excellent alternative to wound debridement for patients that are not surgical candidates. This review looks at the efficacy of MDT for debridement of acute burn patients.
Methods: An exhaustive systematic literature review was performed using MEDLINE-Ovid, Web of Science, CINAHL and Google Scholar utilizing the keywords maggot therapy, larvae therapy and burns.
Results: A total of 143 articles were screened with 7 case studies meeting designated criterion reviewed. Maggot debridement therapy was found to be effective in removal of necrotic tissue from these burn wounds in 6 out of 7 cases. The case report where debridement was not successful was due to burn destruction into the knee joint capsule and MDT was terminated secondary to the need for bilateral knee amputation. The number of MDT treatments required to obtain full debridement ranged from 2-5 applications. The overall quality of these studies via the GRADE criteria is very low due to there being no RCTs performed at the time of this review and further studies need to be performed on a larger population of patients with acute burns.
Conclusion: Based on these case reports, MDT should be considered for the burn patient population as a rapid, effective, safe and economical alternative modality for wound management.
Keywords: Maggot therapy, larvae therapy, burns.

Root Canals: What You Should Know
So you've been told you need a root canal. You probably have a lot of questions. Here are some facts about root canals and the procedure that may help you feel more comfortable.
Tooth Anatomy: the Root Canal
What is the root canal? The center space of your tooth, known as the pulp chamber, goes from the surface down the length of the root all the way to the tip. This is called the "canal" or "root canal." Human teeth can have from one to four root canals depending on the tooth's anatomy. Molars, for example, may have two to four canals, while incisors generally have only one.
Reasons for a Root Canal
The tiny canals contain the pulp, or nerve of the tooth. Any infection or trauma of the nerve will cause need for root canal therapy, also called a Root Canal. Possible reasons for root canal therapy are:
Tooth decay invades, or penetrates the enamel and then the dentin to reach the pulp
A tooth becomes abscessed, or infected from decay
Trauma, such as a chipped or broken tooth exposes the nerve
A tooth is dying due to age or past trauma that has escalated, making root canal therapy necessary
Root Canal: The Procedure
A root canal can be done in a single or in multiple visits, depending on the severity of your tooth's condition. Your dentist will be able to tell you upon initial diagnosis how many visits it will take. We will also prescribe an antibiotic for you to take prior to the procedure if there is an infection present.
The first step is to numb the tooth that is being worked on with a local anesthetic.
A dental x-ray called a "periapical x-ray" will be taken to assist the doctor during the procedure.
Next, a dam will be placed over your mouth. This is to keep the tooth very dry while the doctor works and also keeps the chemical tooth disinfectant from entering your mouth during the procedure.
Once the dam is in place, the doctor will drill a small hole to reach the nerve so that the nerve and any infected tissue can be removed. After the root is removed, final x-rays will be taken to ensure the entire root was retrieved.
Finally, the tooth will be finished with a permanent filling; often dentist will recommend placing a crown over the affected tooth.
Root Canal Recovery
Your affected tooth may be sore after the local anesthetic has worn off. The dentist may prescribe pain medication to take at home and additional antibiotics are sometimes recommended.

The impressive acceleration combined with its diminutive size meant that it disappeared from sight very quickly. So quickly that itwas difficuly to pan my camera fast enough to keep it in view. A few seconds after takeoff it had literally disappeared. It was awesome to imagine being on the receiving end of a ground attack by jet aircraft - by the time you heard the sound and looked up it would be raining trouble!

Did you hear the good news? Norwegian police report that the stolen Edvard Munch masterpieces "The Scream" and "Madonna" have been found.
That's right, two years after gunmen heisted them in a daring daylight raid from an Oslo museum, they're headed back to the museum... no doubt, under very heavy armed guard.
I was happy to hear this, not only because I always had a morbid interest in "The Scream," but an even bigger interest in why anyone would steal famous artwork.
I mean, it's not as if they can display it for friends.
The friends would say, "Hey Pierre, that 'Scream' is a scream. Looks just like the original."
I mean what does Pierre say? "No, my good man, that is the original."
Of course not. Art experts tell me real art connoisseurs who steal masterpieces want those masterpieces only for themselves.
I'm told oftentimes they don't even hang the paintings, they just lock them away in some vault. Even their families don't have a clue. Imagine that!
Others, of course, are more crass. They sell them in the third market.
It's why some obscure museum in Turkey ends up with a Rodin or, if history is right, the Vatican ends up with an inordinate number of Leonardo da Vinci paintings.
I remember once interviewing some big art collector who told me half of all the fancy, schmancy stuff in the world's top museums has gotten there through nefarious means.
Never did check that out. I'm just happy how this heist turned out. So happy, I could "Scream."

After a bit of a struggle at Llandow two weeks ago I thought it would be good to get the engine checked and make sure it's performing as expected. Well quite simply, it isn't, which is a mixed blessing. On the one hand it helps explain our Llandow woes but on the other hand, this engine was new only last year, was recently rebuilt and has just 4 hours use, and yet is down by some 0.9hp on our other engine. To put that in perspective that represents 5% less power which is quite a lot! If that were equated to lap times (which it can't but let's just go with it for the moment), that would mean a lap time approx. 2 seconds slower which is massive! I've been told that in reality it probably means a lap time nearer 0.5sec slower which is still very significant.
So begins the process of working out what is wrong and I just hope it isn't a case that it is just a duffer. Clearly not all TKM engines are made quite as equally as I had thought/been led to believe 😦 Thanks Adrian at BRT for uncovering the issue on his dyno – one of the most trustworthy people in karting!

The White Sox can go back to being dependent on home runs anytime now/
This is the offense that baseball purist White Sox fans long craved for. They put a bat on a ball (sixth-lowest strikeout rate in the AL is a great leap forward for them, and it's combined with the fourth-lowest walk rate) and they don't swing for the fences hardly at all (AL-worst 23 home runs). In fact, with a .109 ISO (worst in baseball, despite half the league having to put pitchers in their lineup) they make a point of never getting close.
It goes without saying this has gone bad for the Sox (still tied for last in the AL in runs scored), and with the starting pitching cooking again, having the might to overcome lineup black holes is the biggest long-term obstacle for their playoff chances, but it really bore out against Trevor Bauer Tuesday night in the Sox 3-1, win streak-snapping defeat.
Enter the world of lazy comps and imagine Bauer as an even more erratic Jeff Samardzija: live arm, electric stuff and frequent total disconnect with where it's going. When Bauer's on, against a swing-happy Sox lineup, it can result in something like 7.1 innings, seven strikeouts and just four hits. Bauer walked three, notably getting himself into trouble by losing his mark and walking two and loading the bases in the fourth. But that was before Alexei Ramirez strolled up, hacked at everything in sight (and some things above it) and ended the threat mostly on his own.
It's no revelation for the Sox lineup to be unable to allow an erratic pitcher to hang himself, but they suddenly lack the power to make big on the few mistakes they jump on. 23 home runs in 36 games while playing in U.S. Cellular Field is incredibly sparse production. The Mariners have over double that total playing with their backs to the Pacific Ocean. And while park factors have been slowly downgrading The Cell's hitter-friendliness, it's probably the team's fault. Unless 35th & Shields is on top of black hole, there's no reason for them to be in last place by a mile in fly ball rate. It doesn't matter what ballpark you play in; grounders are hard to take for extra bases.
Jose Abreu is not boosting this total like expected, but getting next to nothing in power production from guys with 10-15 home run potential like Alexei Ramirez, Conor Gillaspie, Melky Cabrera, Tyler Flowers, and 10-15 production from guys who have the strength to hit 20 like Avisail Garicia and Adam LaRoche drag the total down much quicker than Abreu's slow start. The Sox aren't particularly good at hitting three singles in an inning, because no one is.
We're still in the period of waiting for things to stabilize, but the longer the Sox persist with bizarre extremes in their performance (Avisail's crazy swing rate, no one hitting with any lift, veterans wildly underperforming) it's only going to bring uncomfortably urgent scrutiny. Todd Steverson & Co. are working against history here, but lose credibility when existing problems worsen under their stewardship.
- Speaking of coaxing uniquely awful performances from veterans, there's only so much patience to be had for letting the Indians use a LOOGY on Adam LaRoche to kill the last meaningful Sox scoring threat of the game in the eighth inning. LaRoche has a .596 OPS vs. lefties since the start of 2013, and yet Ventura stood idly by while Terry Francona played individual matchups with Bryan Shaw, Marc Rzepczynski and Cody Allen on the last three hitters. This roster doesn't afford Ventura a right-handed masher to trot out on command off the bench, but Gordon Beckham vs. a LOOGY is better than leaving LaRoche out to die, which is to say that nearly anyone is better.
- Jose Quintana's final line certainly had some ugliness to it (four strikeouts and walks apiece over seven innings, albeit just two earned runs), but he tuned up big-time to hold the Indians to 0-6 on the night with runners in scoring position, and lit up the crowd when he powered up to strike out Nick Swisher with high heat to end his night after seven. With Quintana and Sale shaking off bad starts and Danks streaking, the weakest points of this rotation are Jeff Samardzija and Carlos Rodon. Most teams are going to be fine with that.
- Since Zach Putnam gave up a bomb to Brandon Moss in the eighth, it wound up not being the margin of defeat, but the first night of gimpy Avisail wasn't without incident. He looked sluggish misreading a line-drive off the bat of Jason Kipnis to lead off the game that went down in the scorecard as a triple (Kipnis would eventually score). And he looked pained again on the bases, which of course came after he hit another crucial, two-out RBI single to tie the game in the fourth. Logically, it should be hard for Garcia--a power-starved singles hitter for the most part--to be a plus player without good wheels and defense, but he is just the weirdest kind of awesome this year.
Next game is Wednesday at 7:10pm CT vs. the Indians on WPWR


text: I received my email today regarding expanding on a comment I made on someone else's blog yesterday, when I realized, I failed to comment or even read a single blog yesterday. I was preoccupied by one of my children going off to Girl Scout Camp for the next three days. With all of the chaotic business of packing and making sure she has everything she will need, I completely forgot about my word press blog or the fact that I signed up for Blogging 101, but my forgetfulness was, of course, temporary. Today when I logged in to my email, I realized that not looking at word press yesterday would not help me to begin my blog today. So today I've read through and commented and liked a few blogs. There was one in particular that jumped out regarding setting up a new blog. The blog is written by Wendy E. N. Thomas who is teaching an online course called Writing Blogs (https://nhwn.wordpress.com/2015/06/18/starting-a-blog-101/). I love her beginning blogger information on the "how to's" of setting up a new word press blog. My comment on her post was regarding tips on finding the time in an extremely busy schedule with work, kids, and kid's activities to find extra time to write without losing sleep at night. I have a full time 8-5 job too! My goal is to start working on blocking out some time to read and write so I can at least start posting with regularity. I'd love to improve on my writing skills and really start to dig in and connect with more people. I'm just having a heck of a time finding enough time to give to it that I want to give! I think a great thing to be sure of before beginning a blog is to be sure you have the time to commit to it. I'm finding this to be my biggest challenge thus far! At any rate, I think it's great that there are online courses for blogging, and that there are people like Ms. Thomas that are willing to take the time to help others achieve their goals. I'm going to continue on toward my own personal goals, and start by breaking my one large goal down in to tiny daily goals. This is just the beginning, after all.

The summary of Eurolanche's 10th seasonA look back at the season, during which Eurolanche celebrated its 10th anniversary.
The first European and the biggest Fan Club of the Colorado Avalanche, Eurolanche, celebrated its 10th anniversary of existence during the 2016-17 season. Thanks to a number of new features and organized events, the recent season became the most successful in Eurolanche's history. The season was highlighted by the Eurolanche Invasion IX, three meetings with former Avalanche players in Europe, two new sister websites and activities linked with the celebration of the Fan Club's anniversary.
"We wanted to create a lot of activities and new features at the beginning of the season in order to make the recent season an unforgettable part of our history. Although the months of preparations weren't easy, I'm really glad that all went according to plan. Being able to celebrate our 10-year anniversary means a lot and we know what kind of future commitment it means," said Eurolanche Founder and President David Puchovsky.
The first activity of the 2016-17 season was a Fan Club member and future Eurolanche Invasion IX participants meeting in Brno, Czech Republic. The meeting took place on the day of the fan club's 9th anniversary of existence. It was the eighth member meeting in Eurolanche history, with its main purpose being to present planned activities for the coming season, as well as to present the schedule, program and rules of the Eurolanche Invasion IX to its future participants. Furthermore, both the anniversary logo and motto of Eurolanche were presented at the meeting and both are going to be used until the end of 2017.
The season was once again highlighted by the Fan Club's ninth trip (and sixth in a row) to the US under the name Eurolanche Invasion IX. Ten members from Slovakia, the Czech Republic, and, for the very first time, from Hungary and Finland took part in the trip. The participants of Invasion IX attended seven Colorado Avalanche games in total. For the first time ever, they've also attended two away games in Anaheim and San Jose during the Fan Club's biggest trip during a Eurolanche Invasion to date. In the span of five days, Invasion IX participants visited the East Coast of the US and, aside from the two previously mentioned cities, also visited Los Angeles, San Francisco, and, for the first time ever, Mexico.
The Fan Club organized a record number of meetings with former Avalanche players in Europe during the past season. Several Fan Club members met with Steven Reinprecht in Nurnberg, Germany, Uwe Krupp in Berlin, Germany and David Aebischer in Fribourg, Switzerland. A tour of the city in each respective city was also part of the meeting. During the last meeting, the meeting's participants drove a total of 2428 kilometers (1508 miles) in Austria, Germany, Switzerland, France and Lichtenstein in the span of four days.
- Report and interview: Steven Reinprecht
- Report and interview: Uwe Krupp
- Report and interview: David Aebischer
At the beginning of the Avalanche's regular season, the Fan Club launched its third sister website – Story.Eurolanche.com. Its main purpose is to showcase the history of the Fan Club and its 10 years of existence in simple form. Brand new sections and columns quickly became part of the newly-launched website. One of the main columns consisted of a 25-part series about selected Eurolanche members, which didn't only focus on their passion for Avalanche hockey, but on their other interests and achievements as well. The website also consisted of other sections summarizing the 10-year-existence of the Fan Club – an infographic about Eurolanche's biggest achievements and successes, its up-to-date history (both sections are also available at Eurolanche.com), a series about interesting facts from the Fan Club's history and 60 most memorable Eurolanche photos.
Eurolanche also launched its fifth website the past season on the occasion of the NHL announcing two games between the Avalanche and the Ottawa Senators, which will be played in Sweden in November 2017. Thanks to the GlobalSeries.Eurolanche.com website, Eurolanche members had the opportunity to sign up for the fan club's trip to Sweden and to buy game tickets among the very first fans. The Fan Club also announced its plans for the Eurolanche Raid 2017 trip, with a record-setting 52 members from 10 different countries and two continents scheduled to take part in it. The GlobalSeries.Eurolanche.com website will be gradually updated with content and will serve as an everlasting tribute to the Avs' historic trip to Europe. Furthermore, the website will be the main source of up-to-date news about both the trip and the Avalanche-Senators games during the entire Eurolanche Raid 2017.
The Eurolanche League, the Fan Club's betting competition continued with its seventh installment, with the prizes being as attractive as never before. The three top-placed competitors will receive their prizes in August. Eurolanche members had the chance to compete for various souvenirs and memorabilia during the entire season, with the most valuable prize being a Colorado Avalanche jersey. Fan Club members only needed to upload their photo to a special gallery of the biggest Avalanche fans at Story.Eurolanche.com to enter the competition.
Eurolanche.com readers had the opportunity to read news about Avalanche hockey on a daily basis. The website published at least three articles on a daily basis in either Czech or Slovak, making Eurolanche's website the world's most active fan website about an NHL team. The content included regular stories in English language and other languages too. Game summaries were updated with player ratings, with the players being rated by the readers themselves. Based on the aforementioned ratings, we published the results of the very first Eurolanche Awards.
Fourteen exclusive interviews with players or other people connected with the Colorado Avalanche were part of the coverage available at Eurolanche.com, with the amount of exclusive interviews being the second highest since the 2013-14 season. Aside from interviews with three former Avalanche players, you had the opportunity to read interviews with this year's first overall draft pick Nico Hischier, Sven Andrighetto, Tyson Jost, J.T. Compher, A.J. Greer and Mikko Rantanen. The majority of these interviews, as well as parts from other exclusive articles found their way into a number of European and North American media, which have been citing Eurolanche for years.
In November 2016, the Fan Club announced the date of the anniversary meeting, which will be the culmination of Eurolanche's 10th anniversary celebration. The meeting will take place from August 10 until August 13, 2017, in the High Tatras in Slovakia, with Eurolanche celebrating its 10th birthday on August 12.
The complete history of the Fan Club will be part of the book, which will be published in both Slovak and English in late 2017. More information will be made public in the near future and will be also available at Story.Eurolanche.com.

The only thing more puzzling than this scenario is the fact that this movie, Vanya on 42nd Street, is a fabulous film. "Uncle Vanya" is the play in question, a tragicomic tale of family members plagued by broken hearts, lost youth, and missed opportunities. The film's premise is that "Uncle Vanya" is being performed by a small theatrical group, and the film simply captures the last rehearsal of the play before the costumes arrive.

I'm currently in the same mental hell over Micki & Maude, Blake Edwards' 1984 alleged comedy. The remote control was right beside me, the stop button sending out its siren call, begging me to push it. And I did nothing. For two hours I watched an awful movie with as much laughs as a funeral home Christmas party. And I did nothing.

No, it is that movie. It embodies the badness-goodness paradox so fully that it spawned six sequels and two TV series (one animated)... so far.

SingularDTV is a Decentralized Application built on top of the Ethereum Blockchain, and it just raised $7,500,000 in 15 minutes.
What is a Decentralized Application? A dApp.
A dApp is similar to a regular App, like uber, or netflix has, but the difference is that the value is owned by the individuals. This means your data really is yours.
Most of the technology is built on top of decentralized, blockchain based, peer-to-peer networks instead of servers that are centralized by some corporate giant. SingularDTV for example, is built on the Ethereum network, which is an evolutionary upgrade of the original Bitcoin protocol. Blockchain technology is one of the most innovative and well-funded industries on the planet right now.
But most dApp are raising funds differently. In a new and very promising way, the ICO.
What is an ICO? An Initial Coin Offering
"Let me make it clear, if you would have put $22,600 dollars into the Ethereum ICO, in a years time your ETH would be worth about $1,000,000 dollars.
If you would have put $1,000 dollars into the Ethereum ICO, your ETH would be worth about $45,000 today. "
Instead of a traditional Kickstarter campaign or other forms of crowdfunding. Decentralized Applications have a unique form of fundraising that presents opportunities for the average person to profit more than any penny stock out there.
In order for these decentralized networks to work, they must store data in a digital token, which then is redeemable later for whatever it is worth to the network. The markets are similar to video game "in game purchase" items, where a certain Character Skin in the popular game "League of Legends" can be worth 1,000's of dollars.
What an ICO is, is borrowed from the traditional "IPO" of a company, except its open to everyone. That means you could buy these coins low right now, to help fund raise the companies development, and if the company succeeds the value of that token will increase! Far more than any penny stock.
What are the Value in these "Coins"
Using Ethereum for example. there digital token Ether, shown as ETH represents access, usability and value that is generated on the Ethereum Peer-to-Peer Network.
In the ICO you could have opted to purchase some ETH for roughly .30 per token, in just about a year the value peaked at $20.00 per ETH and now hums around at $13.5 per ETH about two years later. The reason why the value has increased so much is because the ETH represented access to this new network that was actually solving a problem. The "Coin" works like a stock, a fuel, a currency, a game token and possibly much more. Can you see the opportunity now?

Let me make it clear, if you would have put $22,600 dollars into the Ethereum ICO, in a years time your ETH would be worth about $1,000,000 dollars.
If you would have put $1,000 dollars into the Ethereum ICO, your ETH would be worth about $45,000 today.
How to get involved.
SingularDTV ICO is now over and the price was set at about $0.015. If all goes well that could be a serious return. SingularDTV aims to create a platform where you can create, fund and collaborate on SCI-FI media
. Its the decentralized Netflix for Sci-Fi, there first projects coming out soon are a Series "Singular" that will explore a world leading up to the "Singularity." as well as a Documentary on Ethereum.

Acoustic emission-based diagnostics and prognostics of slow rotating bearings using Bayesian techniques
|University of Pretoria
|Bayesian techniques; Slow rotating bearings; Emission-based diagnostics; UCTD
|Record ID:
|Full text PDF:
Diagnostics and prognostics in rotating machinery is a subject of much on-going research. There are three approaches to diagnostics and prognostics. These include experience-based approaches, data-driven techniques and model-based techniques. Bayesian data-driven techniques are gaining widespread application in diagnostics and prognostics of mechanical and allied systems including slow rotating bearings, as a result of their ability to handle the stochastic nature of the measured data well. The aim of the study is to detect incipient damage of slow rotating bearings and develop diagnostics which will be robust under changing operating conditions. Further it is required to explore and develop an optimal prognostic model for the prediction of remaining useful life (RUL) of slow rotating bearings. This research develops a novel integrated nonlinear method for the effective feature extraction from acoustic emission (AE) signals and the construction of a degradation assessment index (DAI), which is subsequently used for the fault diagnostics of slow rotating bearings. A slow rotating bearing test rig was developed to measure AE data under variable operational conditions. The proposed novel DAI obtained by the integration of the PKPCA (polynomial kernel principal component analysis), a Gaussian mixture model (GMM) and an exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) is shown to be effective and suitable for monitoring the degradation of slow rotating bearings and is robust under variable operating conditions. Furthermore, this study integrates the novel DAI into alternative Bayesian methods for the prediction of RUL. The DAI is used as input in several Bayesian regression models such as the multi-layer perceptron (MLP), radial basis function (RBF), Bayesian linear regression (BLR), Gaussian mixture regression (GMR) and the Gaussian process regression (GPR) for RUL prediction. The combination of the DAI with the GPR model, otherwise, known as the DAI-GPR gives the best prediction. The findings show that the GPR model is suitable and effective in the prediction of RUL of slow rotating bearings and robust to varying operating conditions. Further, the models are also robust when the training and tests sets are obtained from dependent and independent samples. Finally, an optimal GPR for the prediction of RUL of slow rotating bearings based on a DAI is developed. The model performance is evaluated for cases where the training and test samples from cross validation approach are dependent as well as when they are independent. The optimal GPR is obtained from the integration or combination of existing simple mean and covariance functions in order to capture the observed trend of the bearing degradation as well as the irregularities in the data. The resulting integrated GPR model provides an excellent fit to the data and improvements over the simple GPR models that are based on simple mean and covariance functions. In addition, it achieves a near zero percentage error prediction of the RUL of slow …
