NFL Draft Preparation/Combine |
Achieve your best performance at the NFL Combine and your Pro Day by participating in the Mackie Shilstone NFL Draft Preparation Program Do Your Best ...Many college football players make or break their draft day status with impressive displays of strength, speed and football skills. Pro scouts get the vital information they need at the NFL Combine and personal workouts during visits to the college. Draft position determines everything from signing bonuses to base salary to playing time. Performance during these workouts is what separates one athlete from another. That extra half-second of speed, those few more reps on the bench press, a faster time in the agility drills or a few inches more on a vertical jump can boost a mid-level prospect into the early rounds of the draft. Then Make it Better!NFL prospects that train with the Mackie Shilstone system and his superior team of experts make their best performance even better. The patented NFL Draft Preparation Program is comprehensive and aggressive, preparing athletes for the specific tests of the NFL Combine, including:
In 2002, Donte Stallworth and Patrick Ramsey improved their football skills in the NFL Draft Performance Enhancement Program,and they both scored big on draft day by being first round picks! A Complete Program for Every AthleteThe Mackie Shilstone NFL Draft Preparation Program does not take an assembly-line approach to training. Every player's needs are taken into account according to the skill set of their position and a complete evaluation that can include:
Whether a safety needs to increase strength in his upper body, or a wide receiver needs greater explosion of the line of scrimmage, or a lineman needs to shed unwanted pounds, the NFL Draft Preparation Program is customized to achieve that goal. Training plans are created from a menu of over 20 items, giving every athlete the flexibility to budget their time and resources in the way that works best for them. A Professional ApproachAthletes training in the Mackie Shilstone's system train under the direction of former NFL Superbowl Champion and veteran wide-receiver Nate Singleton. Singleton gives hands-on instruction and knowledge of what it takes to make it in the pros. Based in Metairie, Louisiana, the program is housed in the 5,000 square foot state-of-the-art facilities of The Fitness Principle with Mackie Shilstone, a part East Jefferson General Hospital, one of the finest medical establishments in the country.The program also uses the Tulane University synthetic turf practice field and state-of-the-art weight room. Athletes have access to top medical professionals who specialize in injury management and performance deficit training, as well as comfortable facilities to relax between workouts with chiropractic appointments and massages. Proven EnhancementHere's a snapshot of NFL Program athletes who went on to play in the NFL: One NFL Draft Preparation class of eleven athletes included two first round draft picks: Donte Stallworth (New Orleans Saints, 1st round, 13th overall pick) and Patrick Ramsey (Washington Redskins, 1st round, 32nd overall pick). Donte's personal workout at the University of Tennessee caused him to "... explode into collective consciousness of NFL scouts and coaches with a jaw-dropping, eye-popping, stopwatch-testing personal workout in March, when he clocked a 4.2 time in the 40-yard dash, the fastest time many veteran observers ever had recorded. " When asked if our Program really helped him run this record time, Stallworth said, "no doubt. " Tulane quarterback Patrick Ramsey, under he direction of the NFL Draft/Combine Preparation Program, shed thirteen pounds, lowered his body fat level to nine percent, and bettered his 40-yd. dash time to 4.85 seconds from 5.15. The idea was to make Ramsey, 6'2", 219 pounds, more mobile in the pocket and help him avoid the initial pass rush. He moved from his end-of-season projected fifth-round draft status to a first round selection by the Washington Redskins. To Apply
ServicesOur combine preparation pricing structure includes a basic weekly training fee which covers daily training (Monday-Saturday) from 8:45 a.m.-12:00 Noon (fieldwork) and 1:00-2:00 (weight training). We have an optional menu of services which include: medical evaluation, body composition evaluation, nutrition consultation, physiological testing (wingate, cybex) and psychological coaching (Wonderlick test).

Fitz's Fantastic Flaming Turkey Recipe!!!
by Tony Russell
posted Nov 27 2013 8:36AM
• 1 (18 -20 lb) whole turkey
• 2 stalks celery (roughly chopped)
• 1 carrots (roughly chopped)
• 1 onions (cut into quarters)
• 3 -4 crushed garlic cloves
• Olive oil
1. Take everything out of the turkey. There will be a giblet bag and some other stuff.
2. Next add vegetables to the inside of the turkey. You don't even have to peel anything. This is easy because the veggies are just for flavor — you are going to throw them away later.
3. Take the onion and cut it into quarters.
4. Chop a nice long carrot.
5. Do the same with a couple stalks of celery.
6. Add several cloves of garlic that you mash between a broad kitchen knife and the kitchen counter.
7. Throw it all inside the turkey.
8. Then rub the turkey all over with olive oil — not butter because butter usually has salt in it and salt is the enemy of a moist turkey. Make sure the whole bird is covered in olive oil.
9. Put the turkey in a roasting pan and cover it with a large brown paper bag.
10. Staple shut. If you have a huge turkey use two paper bags at each end. It wont stick to the bird because of the olive oil.
11. Sprinkle the bag all over with water.
12. Place into pre-heated 375 F oven. ON THE MIDDLE RACK.
13. The bag wont burn because paper burns at 451 and we're at 375 degrees.
14. The advantage of the brown paper bag over the Reynolds cooking bag is that the paper breathes so the turkey ROASTS. In the Reynolds bag the turkey STEAMS, giving it a different taste.
15. Roast for 13-15 minutes per pound.
16. When you think it's ready, shove a meat thermometer through the bag and into the turkey and give it a minute to register. Make sure it doesn't touch the bone.
17. The thermometer should register between 163-170 degrees.
18. Remove from oven, cut away the bag and remove the basting pan.
19. Do not throw out the drippings!
20. To make the gravy, strain the pan juices into a really big pot. Any juices that accumulate on the turkey platter get poured into the pot.
21. Add six oz. of boiling chicken broth and 1/8 cup of cornstarch to the gravy to thicken it up. Cook on low heat and stir and cook and stir.
22. If it seems it isn't going to be thick enough, add a little more cornstarch.
23. That's it! Happy Thanksgiving

Nexus 7 - Slide Lock fails; unless I restart
Hi guys - I've searched for days and figured I'll ask for help to see if any of you have experienced or solved this problem.
I have a second Nexus 7 that for some reason (even after factory resets) at the slide lock screen fails to unlock. What happens is I can slide the lock but it just flashes and brings me back to the slide lock screen. If I restart the tablet all is OK until the screen locks again.. Weird - I know.
I've tried to change the unlock from a slide to a pattern and the same results.
Any thoughts?
thanks. - 12-05-2012, 06:28 PM #2
Re: Nexus 7 - Slide Lock fails; unless I restart
Factory resetting is the last resort. If you're still under warranty, return it. You'll probably see comments telling you to launch a custom ROM or downloading a screen lock. You might want to disable it completely while you find a solution.

Re: Nexus 7 - Slide Lock fails; unless I restart
This same issue showed up on my co-workers Nexus 7.
I played around with it trying to figure it out, and she had it in a case when it was happening. So I took it out of the case, and it didn't do it anymore....
I tried quite a bit to replicate it out of the case, but I wasn't able too. Put it back in the case and tried to replicate it, and yes, same issue again.
Now, I am not 100% sure that it is the case, but I will be playing around with it a bit more to see what else causes this issue.
OP, was your Nexus 7 in a case? - 01-10-2013, 06:53 PM #5
Re: Nexus 7 - Slide Lock fails; unless I restart
Good troubleshooting...sounds like another dumb "smart" case...

Claim: Saltpeter is secreted in the food or drink of enlisted men.
This need to believe that an outside force is deliberately working to keep things down fuels the saltpeter myth. Such a construct works to reassure the woodless recruit that there's nothing wrong with him — it's all the sneaky doings of those in charge. The myth is every bit as empowering as it is reassuring; it says "We are such rampantly virile men that those in command fear us and what we might do if left unchecked." It thus works to build pride in the unit by helping to establish an internalized reputation for being such wild men that the group as a whole has to be drugged into docility if its commanders are to have any hope of keeping it under control. Yet the truth is, there's no saltpeter in the food. There's no proof potassium nitrate (also known as saltpeter) has any effect on libido, plus or minus, so there would be nothing to be gained from such a doctoring of edibles. Yes, saltpeter has long rumored to be an anaphrodisiac, a substance that reduces sexual drive. But it's all rumor and no fact. Saltpeter has a long history of medical use. It and other nitrates were employed by doctors during the
Given that saltpeter doesn't suppress sexual urges and is dangerous to use, the Army lacks any reason to administer it to those within its ranks. Yet those two facts will probably do little to dissuade those who are certain the coffee continues to taste funny. The rumor doesn't reside only within the ranks of the service — it pops up wherever teenage boys or men are housed together. Many believe saltpeter is secretly introduced into the food at colleges, boys' schools, and prisons, all places where the belief flourishes because the inmates need to explain away their lack of sexual arousal.

'American Idol': Amber Holcomb takes on Whitney Houston and does her proud
Amber Holcomb - Top 10 Girls - American Idol 12 by IdolxMuzic
For her Top 10 women performance, Amber Holcomb took on a big ol' Whitney Houston number, which is almost an "American Idol" no-no. Luckily, the adorable young girl pulled it off effortlessly on "I Believe in You and Me."
"Good lord ... what a perfect song for you. Your voice is beautiful," says Urban. Nicki says, "That was a 10. Billion." And Randy adds his ubiquitous "in it to win it," while Mariah says, "You can sing your behind off."
She really can. Amber Holcomb has kind of come out of nowhere in these Vegas rounds. But we like her sound. The only thing we would maybe change is that she dial it back on her runs sometimes. But she should be advancing tonight, right "Idol" voters?

Police Commissioner Ray Kelly says he supports Brooklyn District Attorney Charles Hynes' decision to drop charges against a man whose beating by police was caught on tape.
After reviewing all available evidence, the DA said Monday he will not prosecute 21-year old Ehud Halevy.
Two officers confronted Halevy at a Jewish youth center in Crown Heights on Oct. 8 after getting a 911 call saying he refused to leave.
Police say Halevy resisted arrest and had to be subdued.
The youth center said Halevy was given permission to stay there.
"Once it was established that the young man had permission, then there was no trespass," Hynes said. "No trespass, no case."
"That's the district attorney's decision and certainly, we support the DA's decision," Kelly said.
One of the officers is now on modified duty pending an investigation.
In a statement, Halevy's attorney said he's pleased with the DA's decision.

Adobe Reader 9.1 for Linux
The new version 9.1 of Adobe Reader brings some improvements regarding the command line interface and printing features.
Adobe now provides its PDF reader in a Linux version for 9.1. The release plugs some security holes and provides a few new features. Among them is tabbed viewing of multiple PDFs and detaching them to separate windows. The software also has a faster launch and performance and more intuitive user interfaces.
Printing improvements were high among developer focus. The advanced print dialog now includes printing as image and Acrobat color management. A printer properties dialog provides all printer driver options and the command line now includes all options found in the print dialog.
The Reader also works over pure IPv6 as well as mixed networks. Users on Acrobat.com can upload and share documents from within the UI. Some of the bugs fixed include font caching at startup and the interface with RealPlayer. Piping PDFs through input stream via cat pdffile.pdf | acroread - is also now possible.
A new de-installer makes it easy to wipe the entire package from the hard drive, although necessary only for 48-MByte binary installations off the Adobe website. Linux downloads of the Reader come as .bin, .tar, .rpm, or .deb versions, the latter two installable over the package manager. Details on the new Reader are here.
Umm... i dont think so...
I think its just pure hype... Adobe really needs to make it work for linux users... -
Still no 64-bit
Does adobe still not release 64-bit versions of their linux reader? Pity for those who use this product. I'm enjoying Evince and Okular, less bloated.

Klaus Kenneth - Born to Hate Reborn to Love
January 09, 2013, 04:39:00 AM »
Hi All
Wondering if anyone has read this Book about Klaus Kenneths spiritual journey ?
What are your thoughts on him ?
Is his story true ?.
Born to Hate, Reborn to Love is a story for our generation, a story that brings comfort, reassurance and hope to a world immersed in confusion, rejection and despair. Repelled and repulsed by those who ostensibly represented the Christian faith in his juvenescence, Klaus Kenneth naturally looked elsewhere for the solution to his lonely and tortured existence. In his sincere search for escape from rejection and abuse, Klaus found himself on an odyssey that took him around the world several times, lured him into a vortex of pleasure and power, and initiated him into the great philosophies and religious traditions of our times. Having tried it all, and reaching the very brink of the abyss of despair and the desire for nonexistence, Klaus encounters the One whom he had never thought to look for, the One that he had always discounted: the great I AM, the God of Love and healing, the God of regeneration and eternal life. Published here for the first time in English, Born to Hate, Reborn to Love is already a best seller in several other languages, and has been published in Bulgarian, Croatian, French, German, Greek, Serbian, Romanian, and Russian; and is soon to appear also in Portuguese.
Here's a video of his story.

I too am curious about this one. My priest was gifted a copy of this book for Christmas and conveyed a measure of reservation about it, which I also must confess I share. I will convey my impressions should he see fit to pass it on to me, as it doesn't seem the sort of book I am liable to purchase for myself. I have no reason to doubt that this man's testimony is true and that by the Grace of God his story may speak particularly to the hearts of certain seekers but my cynicism suggests wariness towards what seems to be a nascent trope in recent 'convert' literature (which of course has its own problems to begin with): the story of seekers in Far Eastern religions coming to Christ and spending a great deal of time warning the audience of the demonic elements within said religions. I am thinking particularly of 'The Gurus, the Young Man, and Elder Paisios.' It is primarily a question of emphasis that concerns me and makes me wonder how effective a method of evangelism it might be, where the Far Eastern religions are treated as unequivocally demonic and the emphasis on the truth of Christ seems almost peripheral to this aim. I would love to be proven wrong about this. Has anyone else had the opportunity to peruse this book?

Hi All
Wondering if anyone has read this Book about Klaus Kenneths spiritual journey ?
What are your thoughts on him ?
Is his story true ?.
Saw this book mentioned somewhere on this forum and bought it with my last round. Read it yesterday.
My initial thoughts are that he has certainly lived a very full life and does not tend to be a person who does things in half measures.
I thought the book was interesting, but could see how a priest might have reservations about recommending it to just anyone.
He seems to have tried to honestly describe himself, warts and all. He is able to trace his life through various stages with a great deal of detail and insight. Some people can remember their past like that, others can't.
He begins life born into a Catholic family, with a mother who practices some syncretic form of Catholicism and the occult, and a father who later deserts his family in wartime Germany. He mentions a generational progression of demonic influence in families, so right off the bat he is not just pointing fingers at eastern philosophies and religions.
He grows up feeling utterly rejected and hated by his mother, has no father figure, and is finally abandoned by his mother, left with a Catholic priest who sexually molests him for years. He goes off to Roman Catholic seminary, and walks into a terrible scene of a group of priests doing the unthinkable together. He drops out of college and starts his long journey of travel and spiritual searching.
As he wholeheartedly delves into various practices, including sex, drugs and rock and roll, then Transcendental Meditation (TM), he is able to recount his thinking process and how he rationalized the obvious problems in each system. He leaves TM and goes to India to delve further into real Hinduism, finds no answers to his spiritual angst, moves onto monastic Buddhism, and on and on. He doesn't so much dismiss other religions as outright demonic, he just gets in them and sees the effect it has on himself, and what the limitations are in those religions. He learns by doing and carefully observing from the inside. He is a hands-on type learner. At one point he even notes that some Hindus live more ascetic and good lives than Christians, but then he sees how Hinduism overall has not contributed to the bettering of general life conditions for many people.
Maybe I read the book too quickly, because somewhere in there he also went to Latin America to study occult practices. The book has various pictures of himself as he goes through these stages, and it actually starts to be a little comedic seeing him dressed up here like a Palestinian Arab, now as a Buddhist monk, now as a Hindu, etc. He's like an actor taking on different roles.
He meets Mother Theresa in India and is really impressed with her. I'm not really sure who Mother Theresa really was, as there are some pretty horrific tales about her allowing people to suffer excruciatingly painful deaths while in her care. She reportedly refused to use palliative care medicine, though she had plenty of money through donations to provide pain alleviation, but she didn't do so because she had that weird Catholic take on suffering. She was also reportedly demonically possessed herself, and had an exorcism. So, who knows.
He becomes more and more jaded as he discovers so much chicanery behind the various religions. He becomes a guru of sorts himself, but is honest in saying what a charlatan he was and how badly he used and abused people. It sounds like he left a lot of spiritually devastated people in his wake, even at one point describing himself as a vampire, which is what he was, a spiritual vampire.
Eventually he meets up with a woman he had married years before with no good intention of staying married. She had been somewhat of a spiritual seeker herself, which is what initially differentiated her from the other girls around him and drew him to her. Though they had gone their separate ways, they run into each other again on their world travels. She had entered a Buddhist monastery, and he had followed her in. They ran into each other yet again back in Europe, but she had since converted to some type of Protestant or Reformed Christian after reading about the Jesus prayer and using it as a mantra during her meditation. The use of the Jesus prayer led her to an utter and terrifying dread of death and realization of her own sinfulness. Because she had no spiritual guidance for the Jesus prayer, she fell into despair. Her Buddhist master and others told her that they were 'just thoughts' and that they would go away, but they didn't. She came across some Christian missionaries who began to pray for her and she eventually left the Buddhist monastery and converted to Christianity. She is the main reason he eventually gives Christianity another chance.
He is converted to Christianity around the age of 36 by people in some sort of ecumenical movement, though he is very resistant at first because, well, in American vernacular, Christians aren't cool, and he thinks he is cool, and he doesn't want to be like them. He was very cynical about religion having had so many disappointing experiences. He does seem to be at the least demonically oppressed, so that causes even more resistance.
After some years as a Christian, he meets Elder Sophrony and sees an authentically realized Christian of a type he had never seen before. He realizes that the type of Christianity he is involved in has very shallow water, and he's ready to tackle some of the more difficult aspects of being a Christian, the one that actually involves denying yourself, taking up your cross and following Christ. He realizes that he hasn't attained true freedom as he is still a slave to his passions and vices. He becomes Orthodox.
Is it true? I have no reason to think he would lie, but it's hard to say if every little detail is true.
Is it spiritually useful? I found a few things to be helpful reminders. For instance, the New Testament talks about the person who is under demonic influence and is healed from it, those demons will travel around dry places and eventually return back to that person and find the house put in order and tidy, and then bring more demons along to inhabit the clean house. It's a great reminder to be vigilant in the Christian life.
It's also good to remember that God can turn any horrible situation to the good for our benefit, but He won't force it on us. It's also clear that God is with Klaus through all his many mistakes.
I'm not sure who would find his book to be helpful. Seems like, as Symeon mentioned, a genre of writing by European kids who go on spiritual journeys to the east. Would any of those young people read his book and decide not to put themselves through all that? Hard to quantify that. But it very well might plant a seed in someone. He also had written an earlier version of the book, but at Elder Sophrony's advice had waited a number of years then rewritten the book. He said he is glad to have done that because the years of Christian practice helped him write from a more mature perspective.
If just one person come to God through Christ it is worth it.
The book is 271 pages long, and approximately 112 pages cover his formative years to his conversion. The balance is about his personal discovery of Christ Jesus as a living God. The very last part is his conversion to Orthodoxy, pages 245-271.

I met Klaus one time and I had a long talk with him. He's a quite spiritual person with a deep prayer. And his book has been having a strong influence for my life - it was and it still is a great help for me.
Imagine: Such a terrible life, especially during his childhood, for example a Catholic priest, who sexually molests him for about eight years
evening. And two, three years after Klaus became a Christian he went to this priest and forgave him personally and wholeheartedly. That's a model! And guess, Psychologists would regard such a person - with such a childhood and life - beyond repair.
I heard of persons who after reading his book left all the eastern religions, which they were trying out, and became orthodox.

Wow. Some people really go on long journeys.
Conquer evil men by your gentle kindness, and make zealous men wonder at your goodness. Put the lover of legality to shame by your compassion. With the afflicted be afflicted in mind. Love all men, but keep distant from all men.

Klaus is a wonderful guy, very funny and a great storyteller - most of all, he is very sincere about his Orthodox faith. While I certainly don't think any part of the book is made up, there are bits which I do think are a little exaggerated. Not out of any kind of dishonestly, it's simply the way Klaus tells his stories.

The Public Health Approach to Violence Prevention
On this Page
The focus of public health is on the safety and well-being of entire populations. A unique aspect of the field is that it strives to provide services that benefit the largest number of people.
Public health draws on a science base that is multi-disciplinary. It relies on knowledge from a broad range of disciplines including medicine, epidemiology, sociology, psychology, criminology, education, and economics.1 This broad knowledge base has allowed the field of public health to respond successfully to a range of health conditions across the globe.
The field also emphasizes input from diverse sectors including health, education, social services, justice, and policy.1 Collective action on the part of these stakeholders can help in addressing problems like violence.
The public health approach is a four-step process that is rooted in the scientific method. It can be applied to violence and other health problems that affect populations.
Step 1: Define and Monitor the Problem
The first step in preventing violence is to understand the "who", "what", "when", "where" and "how" associated with it. Grasping the magnitude of the problem involves analyzing data such as the number of violence-related behaviors, injuries, and deaths. Data can demonstrate how frequently violence occurs, where it is occurs, trends, and who the victims and perpetrators are. These data can be obtained from police reports, medical examiner files, vital records, hospital charts, registries, population-based surveys, and other sources.
Step 2: Identify Risk and Protective Factors
It is not enough to know the magnitude of a public health problem. It is important to understand what factors protect people or put them at risk for experiencing or perpetrating violence. Why are risk and protective factors useful? They help identify where prevention efforts need to be focused.
Risk factors do not cause violence. The presence of a risk factor does not mean that a person will always experience violence. Victims are never responsible for the harm inflicted upon them.
- Risk Factor - Characteristic that increases the likelihood of a person becoming a victim or perpetrator of violence.
- Protective Factor - Characteristic that decreases the likelihood of a person becoming a victim or perpetrator of violence because it provides a buffer against risk.
Step 3: Develop and Test Prevention Strategies
Research data and findings from needs assessments, community surveys, stakeholder interviews, and focus groups are useful for designing prevention programs. Using these data and findings is known as an evidence-based approach to program planning. Once programs are implemented, they are evaluated rigorously to determine their effectiveness.
Step 4: Assure Widespread Adoption
Once prevention programs have been proven effective, they must be implemented and adopted more broadly. Communities are encouraged to implement evidence-based programs and to evaluate the program's success. Dissemination techniques to promote widespread adoption include training, networking, technical assistance, and evaluation.

So far this season, Josh Johnson has been underwhelming through three starts. His strikeouts are way down compared to his career norms, and the only thing that has kept his peripheral ERA numbers like his FIP down is the fact that he has yet to allow a home run this season. When you investigate his component ERA numbers that regress home runs more towards the mean, his performance has been very un-Johnson-like to start the year.
I know three starts is just not a whole lot, but is there something we can garner from this? What has Johnson been doing wrong on a pitch-by-pitch level that is making his stats appear so sub par? One thing that may be able to help us find out is Pitch f/x, and it may be a good idea to take a look at Johnson's first three starts to see if we can learn anything.
To attempt some form of investigation, I looked at the pitches Johnson threw in his first two starts to right-handed hitters in 2012. So far, it is not a lot, only 76 pitches to right-handers thus far. As a comparison point, I looked at the 341 pitches Johnson threw to righties last season. I compared them in a few different ways to see if there were any changes to be noted.
The Basics
Here is some of the basic data on what Johnson threw in 2011.
Johnson, 2011 | # | % | Vel | Horiz. | Vert. |
Four-seam Fastball | 155 | 46 | 94.1 | -2.7 | 8.1 |
Slider | 131 | 38 | 85.1 | 3.1 | -0.2 |
Two-seam Fastball | 31 | 9 | 92.8 | -6.3 | 8.5 |
Curveball | 24 | 7 | 78.2 | 5.0 | -4.7 |
Compare that to his 2012 chart and numbers.
Johnson, 2012 | # | % | Vel | Horiz. | Vert. |
Four-seam Fastball | 34 | 45 | 92.7 | -4.4 | 8.5 |
Slider | 15 | 20 | 86.5 | 2.1 | 1.5 |
Changeup | 14 | 18 | 88.5 | -5.1 | 4.5 |
Two-Seam Fastball | 9 | 12 | 92.4 | -9.6 | 7.7 |
Curveball | 4 | 5 | 77.5 | 3.2 | -5 |
A couple of things stand out in the early going with Johnson's approach versus righties between the two seasons.
- Johnson has clearly eschewed the curveball in favor of his changeup this season. We had heard that he was shelving the curveball early in the season while he continued the road to recuperation from his shoulder problems. From what was said, it was more of an issue with resetting his mechanics to normal after a ten-month layoff and not wanting to continue working on new things rather than an injury issue that would prevent him from throwing the curveball. Nevertheless, he has gone to his changeup in more than a few instances against righties, and to poor results thus far.
- His velocity is clearly down. His four-seam fastball is down almost 1.5 mph in velocity. Ironically, despite that problem, his fastball has actually been a good thing thus far. Right-handers do not have a hit on his fastball, and he has a balls to called strike ratio of 9 to 7 on the pitch. Of the six whiffs he has induced versus righties, four are coming off of the fastball.
- The biggest problem we have seen so far is that his slider is being contacted a lot more often than it should be. He has only induced two whiffs on it thus far, with nine out of 12 of those contacted pitches going for balls in play. None of them have been hit hard, as they have all been singles or outs, but the 17 percent whiff rate on swings is highly underwhelming for a strong weapon In addition, his other problem has been his two-seamer, which he has yet to throw for a strike.
Lefties the Issue
It turns out Johnson has had no issues with right-handers in terms of results. He is posting a 2.42 FIP and 3.38 xFIP against them, in fact. Other than a few extra base hits, many of which can be contributed to weak fly balls that landed during the St. Louis game, for example, he actually has done fine, minus the alarming lack of swings and misses.
The biggest problem so far this season has been against lefties. He has walked five and only struck out four so far this season after facing 39 such hitters. Usually, Johnson handles these sorts of hitters slightly differently, favoring more ground balls and fewer strikeouts with his changeup. However, he has taken a decrease in strikeouts to an extreme, as he has literally induced only two whiffs in 95 pitches in his first two starts. There was improvement in his third start overall, but the point stands that his stuff is not fooling hitters, especially from the left side.
Too Early To Tell
It is clearly a little too early to say much of Johnson's struggles, with only three starts on the table and two starts in this data set. Other than his velocity, nothing seems clearly out of the ordinary in terms of the basics, but the lack of whiffs indicates that something either is not moving well or is not being located properly. If Johnson continues to struggle, we will revisit this with more data 10 starts into the season, but for now, let us hope he recovers well.

"A fascinating look into the minds of two entrepreneurs interested in more than the bottom line."—John Seabrook, author of Flash of Genius
—John Seabrook, author of Flash of Genius
2011 Nautilus Award
Silver Winner
Conscious Business/Leadership
People of every imaginable background and station in life want to make a difference with their lives. But how do you do that effectively? How does an idea journey successfully across the wastelands separating fantasy and reality?
In The Earth's Best Story, twins Ron and Arnie Koss masterfully recount their transition from eking out livings as sprout growers and broom makers to creating Earth's Best baby food—the first organic food to sit beside mainstream competitors on the nation's supermarket shelves. That feat revolutionized and empowered the organic-foods movement and benefited hundreds of farmers as well as the millions of babies whose very first foods have been organically grown.
Told through the dual narrative of each brother, this memoir is as rich in life lessons as it is in entrepreneurial wisdoms and warnings.
Personal, intense, and inspirational, the Koss brothers' tale reflects the quest to find a place in this world by somehow changing it for the better.
Co-founder Ron Koss worked with Earth�s Best until 1995. In addition to developing organic baby food, Ron is a natural foods product innovator. During his long term employ with the aio Food Group, Ron has secured patents for his work on complete meal supplement ice cream and has also introduced specialized complete meal supplements for people in health recovery situations. Presently, he is working on nutritional products for a global relief aid project. Ron enjoys working as a consultant for socially responsible enterprises and has a special interest in group dynamics, organizational development and conflict resolution. He lives in Vermont ...
View Ron's full profile page >
Co-founder Arnie Koss worked with Earth's Best until 1994. Arnie honed his business skills by founding and operating a number of small entrepreneurial companies in Vermont. He was actively involved in the development of organic certification standards, which eventually led to the Organic Foods Act of 1990. Arnie has served as a consultant to several prominent natural products companies and is presently the Managing Partner at aio Food Group, a Hawaii-based product development company that also owns the Punalu'u Bakeshop and Visitor Center on the Big Island of Hawaii. He lives in Hawaii with his family.

text: Annex 8. Resources for evaluationA wealth of information is available within UNDP and the external community, containing key findings and lessons on the design, implementation and evaluation of technical cooperation programmes and projects in countries and regions around the world. Some of the most important sources for such information are listed below. United Nations Evaluation Group (UNEG) website (www.unevaluation.org)—UNEG is a professional network for the units responsible for evaluation in the UN system. The goal of UNEG is to strengthen the objectivity, effectiveness and visibility of the evaluation function across the UN system and to advocate the importance of evaluation for learning, decision-making and accountability. As of 2009, UNEG currently has 43 member agencies represented. The website details the UNEG current work programme and provides easy access to UNEG documents as well as links to other useful evaluation resources. UNDP Evaluation Office internal (intra.undp.org/eo) and external websites (www.undp.org/eo)—The Evaluation Office produces a number of products to support learning from evaluation. Its website contains all evaluations conducted by the Evaluation Office, evaluation briefs and executive summaries, and the Annual Report on Evaluation, which presents key findings and lessons from independent evaluations. It also contains links to various references, norms, standards, guidelines on evaluation methodology and approaches, and other development partners' websites on evaluation. Evaluation Resource Centre website (erc.undp.org)—The Evaluation Resource Centre (ERC) is the UNDP online evaluation Information Management Centre. It is a publicly accessible database that contains evaluation reports, ToRs, and management responses for independent and decentralized evaluations of UNDP projects, programmes, outcomes and UNDAFs, among others. The database also includes evaluation plans and focal points for UNDP programme units, as well as a range of guidance and reference documents. |

- Dissociation of expanding c anti-c states in heavy ion collisions (1999)
- We study J/psi suppression in AB collisions assuming that the charmonium states evolve from small, color transparent configurations. Their interaction with nucleons and nonequilibrated, secondary hadrons is simulated using the microscopic model UrQMD. The Drell-Yan lepton pair yield and the J/psi Drell-Yan ratio are calculated as a function of the neutral transverse energy in Pb+Pb collisions at 160 GeV and found to be in reasonable agreement with existing data.
- Modeling J /Psi production and absorption in a microscopic nonequilibrium approach (1999)
- Charmonium production and absorption in heavy ion collisions is studied with the Ultrarelativisitic Quantum Molecular Dynamics model. We compare the scenario of universal and time independent color-octet dissociation cross sections with one of distinct color-singlet J/psi, psi 2 and CHIc states, evolving from small, color transparent configurations to their asymptotic sizes. The measured J/psi production cross sections in pA and AB collisions at SPS energies are consistent with both purely hadronic scenarios. The predicted rapidity dependence of J/psi suppression can be used to discriminate between the two experimentally. The importance of interactions with secondary hadrons and the applicability of thermal reaction kinetics to J/psi absorption are in- vestigated. We discuss the e ect of nuclear stopping and the role of leading hadrons. The dependence of the 2/J/psi ratio on the model assumptions and the possible influence of refeeding processes is also studied.

In this long-awaited follow-up to Love, Medicine & Miracles, renowned medical doctor and spiritual teacher Bernie Siegel demonstrates how science and spirituality interact — and how one can tap the body's potential to heal.
After studying the use of crayon drawings by patients facing life-threatening disease, Bernie founded Exceptional Cancer Patients to facilitate self-induced healings, which were often called miraculous. Bernie realized our bodies actually want to heal, and we can aid this innate propensity through what are currently seen as unconventional practices, including drawing, visualization, dreams, love, and laughter.
Readers will learn how to use these practices to help with everything from diagnosing and understanding their illness to making the correct treatment decisions to sharing experiences with loved ones and caregivers.

FWD 4dr Auto GLS *Ltd Avail*
Starting at | Starting at 21 MPG City - 26 MPG Highway
The 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe compares very favorably against the Honda CR-V and Toyota Highlander, offering a choice of V6 engines at a price point where the Japanese competition only offer four-cylinder motors. There is plenty of safety equipment, the driving dynamics are first rate, and the interior is both nicely finished and quiet. If the pricing isn't enough to intrigue you, the 100,000 mile warranty might just do the trick.
The Hyundai Santa Fe is all-new inside and out for 2007. The exterior features more modern and shapely body panels, and the interior has higher quality materials than the previous version. An SE trim joins the GLS and Limited trims of 2006.
Styling on the redesigned 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe is a high point, with a rounded body that brings the look of this mid-sized SUV up to date.

A lozenge (◊), often referred to as a diamond, is a form of rhombus. The definition of lozenge is not strictly fixed, and it is sometimes used simply as a synonym (from the French losange) for rhombus. Most often, though, lozenge refers to a thin rhombus—a rhombus with acute angles of 45°.[1] The lozenge shape is often used in parquetry and as decoration on ceramics, silverware and textiles. It also features in heraldry and playing cards.
The lozenge motif dates as far back as the Neolithic and Paleolithic period in Eastern Europe and represents a sown field and female fertility.[2] The ancient lozenge pattern often shows up in Diamond vault architecture, in traditional dress patterns of Slavic peoples, and in traditional Ukrainian embroidery. The lozenge pattern also appears extensively in Celtic art, art from the Ottoman Empire, and ancient Phrygian art.[3]
The lozenge symbolism is one of the main female symbols in Berber carpets.[4] Common Berber jewelry from the Aurès Mountains or Kabylie in Algeria also uses this pattern as a female fertility sign.
In 1658, the English philosopher Sir Thomas Browne published The Garden of Cyrus subtitled The Quincunciall Lozenge, or Network Plantations of the Ancients where he outlined the mystical interconnection of art, nature and the Universe. He suggested that ancient plantations used the quincunx pattern that revealed the "mystical mathematics of the city of Heaven"[5] and proof of the wisdom of God.
Lozenges appear as symbols in ancient classic element systems, in amulets, and in religious symbolism. In a suit of playing cards, diamonds is in the shape of a lozenge.
In Unicode, the lozenge is encoded in multiple variants:
- U+2311 ⌑ square lozenge (HTML:
) - U+25CA ◊ lozenge (HTML:
)[6] - U+2662 ♢ white diamond suit (HTML:

In IBM 026 punched card code it is ⌑ (12-8-4),[7] DOS code page 437 (at character code 4)[8] and Mac-Roman.
The LaTeX command for the lozenge is \lozenge
Modal logic[edit]
In modal logic, the lozenge expresses that there is "possibility." For example, the expression expresses that it is possible that is true.
In axiomatic set theory, the lozenge refers to the principles known collectively as diamondsuit.
During the First World War, the Germans developed Lozenge-Tarnung (lozenge camouflage).[9] This camouflage was made up of colored polygons of four or five colors. The repeating patterns often used irregular four-, five- and six-sided polygons, but some contained regular rhombi or hexagons. Because painting such a pattern was very time consuming, and the paint added considerably to the weight of the aircraft, the pattern was printed on fabric. This pre-printed fabric was used from 1916 until the end of the war, in various forms and colours.
The lozenge in heraldry is a diamond-shaped charge, usually somewhat narrower than it is tall. A mascle is a voided lozenge—that is, a lozenge with a lozenge-shaped hole in the middle—and the rarer rustre is a lozenge containing a circular hole. A field covered in a pattern of lozenges is described as lozengy; a similar field of mascles is masculy.
Cough tablets[edit]
Cough tablets have taken the name lozenge, based on their original shape. According to the Oxford English Dictionary the first use of this sense was in 1530.
In Finland, the lozenge is associated with salmiak, through Apteekin Salmiakki. Thus, the lozenge is commonly called salmiakkikuvio "salmiak shape". The pattern is often used even if the candy is not actually lozenge-shaped.
U.S. Military[edit]
To implement 10 U.S.C 773, the Secretary of the Navy has prescribed the following distinctive mark for wear by members of military societies which are composed entirely of honorably discharged officers and enlisted personnel, or by the instructors and members of duly organized cadet corps.
The distinctive mark will be a diamond, 3-1/2 inches long by two inches wide, of any cloth material. A white distinctive mark will be worn on blue, green, or khaki clothing; and a blue distinctive mark will be worn on white clothing.
The distinctive mark will be worn on all outer clothing on the right sleeve, at the point of the shoulder, the upper tip of the diamond to be 1/4 inch below the shoulder seam.
The lozenge is also used in the U.S. Army, Marine Corps, and Air Force on the insignia of their respective First Sergeants.
They are also used in the Junior ROTC and the Cadet Program in the Civil Air Patrol, for Cadet Officers corresponding to the military pay grades of O-4 to O-6 (C/Major, C/Lieutenant Colonel, and C/Colonel).
Finnish Defence Forces[edit]
In Finnish military ranks, the lozenge is found in the insignia of conscript officer students (one lozenge) and conscript officer cadets (two lozenges).
The lozenge (technically a mascle) can be used on public roadways in the United States and Canada to mark a specific lane for a particular use. The lane will usually be painted with a lozenge at a regular interval, and signage will be installed to indicate the restrictions on using the lane. This marking is most often used to denote high-occupancy vehicle lanes or bus lanes, with accompanying signage reading "◊ HOV LANE" or "◊ BUS LANE" and giving the requirements for a vehicle to be accepted. Prior to 17 January 2006, lozenges could also be used to mark bicycle-only lanes, often in conjunction with a bicycle icon.[10] In New Zealand and Japan, a lozenge marked in white paint on the road indicates an upcoming uncontrolled pedestrian crossing.
