Mike Adams sidelined for at least a few days with biceps injury
Jun 8, 2013, 8:55 PM EST
Phillies reliever Mike Adams felt irritation in his right biceps and will be sidelined for at least a few days, writes Matt Gelb of the Philadelphia Inquirer. Adams allowed a run in one inning of work in his most recent appearance on May 6 and was not used last night in a situation in which the Phillies could have used him: against the right-hander-heavy middle of the Milwaukee Brewer lineup.
Adams, the team's set-up reliever behind closer Jonathan Papelbon, carries a 3.92 ERA. He was signed by the Phillies to a two-year, $12 million contract during the off-season, coming off of surgery to alleviate thoracic outlet syndrome in his right shoulder. He insists his current injury isn't related to the off-season procedure:
"It just seems like I get rid of one thing and something else pops up," Adams said. "It's not a big deal. It's just an irritation."
Adams' average fastball velocity, according to PITCHf/x data, is 89.8 m.p.h. in 2013. Two years ago, he threw at an average of 92.7 m.p.h.

Queensland Nickel Group (QN) subsidiary Asia Pacific Shipping Enterprises (APSE) orders four 64,000 dwt ultramax bulk carriers.
The contract has been signed with the Foreign Economic and Technical Cooperation Company of China, Chanjiang National Shipping Group and the China Changjiang National Shipping Group Corporation Jinling Shipyard.
"The four vessels, for the use of QN, will be built at the China Changjiang National Shipping Group Corporation Jinling Shipyard, and we anticipate receiving delivery between February and June 2014," said QN Managing Director Phil Collins.
"This investment to operate our own shipping service will provide our business with long term cost control of our ore freight activities and allow us to utilise the vessels to export other bulk commodities from our diversified group of companies in the years ahead."
Subject to an agreement between APSE and QN, the vessels will primarily be used for the transportation of nickel ore from New Caledonia, Indonesia, and the Philippines to Townsville for processing and refining at the Palmer Nickel and Cobalt Refinery. The vessels may also be used to carry coal, iron ore, or other bulk materials.
The two hundred meter long vessels will be operated by Singapore-based APSE.
The race is on in global maritime circles to be the "world's first" in every aspect of environmental friendliness, particularly in regards to the incorporation of LNG as fuel onboard commercial ships.

Some small business owners remain pessimistic about the economy, according to the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) Research Foundation's September Small Business Optimism Index.

Conservation plan to protect Hill of Tara in the future
A conservation plan has been commissioned for the State-owned lands on the Hill of Tara by the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht, Jimmy Deenihan.
The minister, in collaboration with the Office of Public Works (OPW) and the Heritage Council, has commissioned the Discovery Programme to undertake the plan which, he said, "will illustrate the unique cultural and historical significance of Tara and identify appropriate policies to ensure its preservation and presentation".
The area to be examined includes the immediate environs of the Hill which contribute to the experience and enjoyment of the monument.
While the conservation plan will also consider access and visitor amenity issues, Mr Deenihan stressed that Tara was "essentially an outdoor experience and that should not change".
The minister emphasised that the emerging conservation plan would "place a key emphasis on consultation with stakeholders, and the local community in particular". Ultimately, it is intended that the conservation plan for the Tara complex will act as an overarching framework for management and interpretation....

After nine-year-old shoots instructor with Uzi what next for the gun debate?
Pro-gun advocates are suggesting the instructor did not take significant safety precautions
Friday 29 August 2014
Brooke Levine knew her way around a BB gun by age 8. At 12, she was getting out of chores and earning extra allowance by out-shooting her father. For her high school yearbook last year, "Bull's-eye Brookie" chose a photo of herself peering down the sight of a lime-green AR15 rifle.
She had a rare pleasure for a kid her age: She got to shoot a friend's Uzi submachine gun. In a YouTube video taken by her father, Ed Levine, founder of the gun rights group Virginia Open Carry, Brooke donned pink earmuffs and smoothly let off a single shot.
"She's shot machine guns for years before that," Levine said. "Once you shoot one, it's like riding a bike. You expect the same kick."
The same kind of weapon was used this week by a 9-year-old girl in the accidental killing of her instructor at an Arizona firing range, reopening the debate about children and guns and prompting questions about how much firepower is too much for young hands.
The incident, captured in part on a grainy video released by police, drew immediate rebukes from gun-control advocates, who said it highlighted the dangers of children having access to firearms. In a rare moment of agreement, some gun rights advocates also took the incident as a warning that perhaps such young children should not be allowed to handle such a notoriously difficult and deadly weapon.
But the pro-gun advocates added that, when done safely, there are benefits to teaching even very young children to shoot certain guns. Youngsters learn hand-eye coordination. They learn what to do if they stumble upon a weapon on the playground. And they learn how to defend themselves if they are ever attacked.
For Nancy Lichtman, who picked up guns as a hobby a few years ago after a man tried to force her into a car in a parking lot, learning to shoot not only became a way to empower herself but to engage her family in what she considers a wholesome activity. Her adult daughter and 15-year-old son now shoot regularly, she said.
Still, despite her son's facility with a variety of firearms, she said she would never let him shoot an Uzi. "I just don't think a kid has any business with a weapon like that," said Lichtman, 43, of Stafford, Virginia.
Shooting instructors said in interviews that in some cases, a 9-year-old may be able to handle an Uzi, even though it has a tricky recoil and can fire hundreds of rounds per minute. The child would have to weigh enough to handle the recoil and have some experience with guns. The parent and instructor would have to jointly determine that the child is mature and skilled enough to operate the firearm safely.
Video stills documenting the moments before a nine-year-old lost control of the uzi
The instructors, who saw the video, said the instructor, Charles Vacca, probably could have taken more precautions. He could have tethered the muzzle so it did not move too much. Rather than standing to the girl's left, as Vacca apparently did, according to the video, he could have stood behind her, holding her hands firmly to maintain control if she could not.
"Had he been behind her or on her strong side, probably nobody would have gotten hurt," said Philip Van Cleave, a shooting instructor and president of the Virginia Citizens Defense League, a pro-gun rights group.
An investigation of the incident, which took place Monday morning at the Last Stop shooting range about an hour outside Las Vegas, is ongoing. The gun range is shut down at least temporarily, the Arizona Republic reported. Attempts on Thursday to reach the Last Stop were unsuccessful. Vacca's ex-wife said a statement would be released shortly.
But groups advocating for stiffer gun-control measures say there is no safe way for a child that young to use such a powerful weapon.
"It's a terrible tragedy," Dan Gross, president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, said Thursday. "It's safe to say that it is not a responsible thing to do to let a 9-year-old have access to a machine gun."
In 2011, 32,351 people were killed by firearms, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and 591 of those deaths were deemed accidental. Nearly one in five of the accidental deaths involved someone younger than 18, said Jon Vernick, co-director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Policy and Research.
There are loose restrictions governing certain elements of gun ownership. Federal law states that minors cannot possess a handgun, albeit with exceptions including target practice, but there is no minimum age for possessing a long gun such as a shotgun or a rifle, according to the Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence.
Thirty states do not set a minimum age for possessing a long gun. But those that do, as well as the District of Columbia, have minimum ages that range from 14 to 21. But many of the states with age restrictions do have exceptions that allow for underage children to use long guns when target shooting or hunting, the center says. (Arizona does not have a minimum age for possessing a long gun.)
Some states have tightened their restrictions after unintentional shootings. After an 8-year-old Connecticut boy accidentally killed himself in 2008 with an Uzi because of the gun's powerful recoil, the state passed a law the following year prohibiting anyone younger than 16 from using machine guns.

Solid / Divide
Liza Lou in Conversation with Julia Bryan-Wilson
Auditorium, Bermondsey
To coincide with the opening of her solo exhibition Solid/Divide at White Cube Bermondsey, Liza Lou will be in conversation with Julia Bryan-Wilson, Associate Professor of Modern and Contemporary Art at University of California, Berkeley.
Lou's new works for Solid/Divide have been created using glass beads, a medium with which she has worked extensively. The beads are used to create large-scale mono- and duo-coloured canvases, hand stitched by Lou and the female Zulu bead-workers she employs in her studio in South Africa.
Scholar and critic Julia Bryan-Wilson specialises in theories of artistic labour, feminist and queer theory, performance, craft histories, photography, video and collaborative practices. She has written the catalogue essay for the publication accompanying this exhibition, which she has called 'some of [Lou's] most aesthetically accomplished and theoretically dense works to date'.
To book tickets please email firstname.lastname@example.com
Please arrive promptly – no late admittance.

LOS ANGELES, April 2, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Following on the heels of the successful launch of its first Master of Public Health Program online, The Chicago School of Professional Psychology (TCSPP)—the leading nonprofit national graduate school devoted exclusively to psychology and related behavioral and health sciences, is now accepting applications for its summer online M.P.H. Program, as well as its fall on-ground M.P.H Program at its Los Angeles Campus located in the downtown area. View a listing of our free, program-related Go-To-Webinars below during National Public Health Week.
The program is specifically designed for working adults interested in making a difference in the health and wellness of others through the promotion of community and public health. Students also have the ability to deepen an area of interest through the selection of courses from electives in three areas: Global Health, Psycho-Behavioral Dimensions of Public Health, and Public Health Leadership. Students can choose to focus in one of those three areas or they can decide to take electives from all of those areas.
First-time student Vernita Platt, who is currently enrolled in the M.P.H. Online Program, had this to say about why she chose The Chicago School: "I really was looking for a graduate program that supported active participation and service in the community. The TCSPP staff has been open and encourages conversation that has created a sense of community. I want to use what I learn to be a better advocate in the community and a promoter of healthier life choices. I'm very interested in focusing on the leadership aspect of the M.P.H., so that I can be better prepared to one day create and monitor programs in my community."
The 42-credit degree, consisting of a core of 27 credits, six credits of field work and capstone, and nine credits of an emphasis area is built of the standards of the Council on Education for Public Health (CePH), with the curriculum based on the competency model published by the Association of Schools of Public Health (ASPH).
In recognition of National Public Health Week 2014, April 7-13, TCSPP's M.P.H. staff will be holding a series of webinars as follows:
Webinar: Overview of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's Free Education Resources
Topics: Learn about free nutrition, women's health, medication safety, and food safety publications available from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for use in community health education programs. Get an overview of hot topics in nutrition and additional online resources available for public health professionals.
When: Tuesday, April 8, 6-6:30 p.m. CDT
Who: Lisa Misevicz, Public Affairs Specialist at the FDA
Where: Click here for login information
Webinar: Psychology and Public Health - The Intersection of Wellness
Topic: A bridge is being built between psychology's focus on individual well-being and Public Health's interest in wellness at the population level. Psychologists possess unique skill sets that enable them to identify interactions between behaviors and environmental factors that are relevant to the individual and society at large. Examples range from risk factors for illness and injury to patterns of crime. Psychologists have both opportunity and obligation to play a role in prevention, intervention, and recovery in the Public Health domain.
When: Wednesday, April 9, 6-7 p.m. CDT
Who: Sarah Shelton, Psy.D., MS, MPH, MSCP, MSCS, HSP
Where: Click here for login information
Webinar: Reviewing Programs and Standards of Care for Refugees with Disabilities and
Chronic Illness
Topic: This presentation will focus on unique situation of newly arrived refugees who are navigating the United States health care system for the first time. Refugees arrive with little previous knowledge of the health care system and how to access care, as well as linguistic, cultural, and financial barriers. The presentation will review programs for refugees with disabilities and chronic illnesses who are resettled in the Chicago area, as well as the current procedures and the results from an exploratory study of the Medical Case Management program at one of five resettlement agencies in Chicago.
When: Thursday, April 10, 6-7 p.m. CDT
Who: Mansha Mirza, Ph.D., OTR/L, MSHOSR, Amy Dix, AM, AB, Elizabeth Hebert, M.A., B.A., and Catherine Bartlett, B.S., M.P.H. Candidate

Briefly: Online Apple Store delays 24-hour ship times in Europe for EasterIn a change to certain European Online Apple Stores, the company is no longer offering 24-hour delivery turnarounds, while the option remains active in the U.S. and Canada.
Apple's UK Online Store page for the iPhone 5c now shows 1-2 day delivery (top) compared to Apr. 16.
First spotted by Portuguese blog All Mac Long, the shipping delays are being seen in nearly all European countries in which the Online Apple Store operates.
With current delivery times quoted at one to two days for nearly all products, including Apple's own equipment, the modification is likely a reflection of regional warehouse or courier companies' Easter weekend schedules, not Apple's European product channel inventory.
AppleInsider was able to confirm that Apple's new shipment protocol was adjusted within the past two days.
While the countries listed above may not be promised a quick one-day turnaround on Internet orders, Apple is continuing to offer the 24-hour availability in other parts of the world including the U.S. and Canada.

SCOOTER Store to add hundreds of new jobs in New Braunfels
Send this to a friend
- Tricia Lynn Silva
The SCOOTER Store, a leading provider of power chairs and mobility scooters, has announced plans to add 500 new employees company-wide by the end of this year. At least half of these employees will be based in the city of New Braunfels, the corporate headquarters for the firm.
The new hires will fill positions across various departments, including the firm's call-center operations, sales, marketing and financial division, says Lynnette Gonzales, spokeswoman for The SCOOTER Store.
"Every department is growing — all the way up to the executive level," she adds.
In order to accommodate this growth, The SCOOTER Store has finalized a lease for a little over 56,000 square feet in an office/retail center called Comal Plaza.
Comal Plaza measures roughly 69,000 square feet. It is located at 603 Business I-35 in New Braunfels.
The SCOOTER Store's corporate campus, meanwhile, is located off of Loop 337 and State Highway 46 at Walnut Avenue. The company leases a total of 192,000 square feet at that location, spread out over two buildings. Of the 2,000 employees that The SCOOTER Store presently has companywide, 1,300 are located at the corporate facility.
As for which departments would ultimately be making the move to the new space, and which would stay at the corporate headquarters facility, those plans are still being determined, says Gonzales, adding that the firm plans to move into its space at Comal Plaza this summer.
Besides New Braunfels, cities including San Marcos and San Antonio were also vying to accommodate The SCOOTER Store's growing space needs, says Doug Harrison, CEO and founder of the firm.
In the end, however, "it was really in our best interest to grow close to our world headquarters," Harrison adds.

Practical Information
»Grip Stave Church
The Grip Stave Church is a pretty red-colored wooden church in the middle of the deserted island of Grip, that would hardly go unnoticed. It has been used as a gathering place for prayers and celebrations, from 1470 CE, though now it is open only in summers when when one can attend the Sunday Service. It does not have a cemetery of its own owing to the barrenness of the surrounding area. The altar of the Blessed Virgin Mary was gifted by the Princess of Austria.

Jury out on wisdom of rule changes
Tuesday 08 March 2005
David Coulthard labelled the new rules in Formula One "ridiculous", Jenson Button was also scathing, and as the season kicked off in Melbourne at the weekend they were not alone in their opinions.
David Coulthard labelled the new rules in Formula One "ridiculous", Jenson Button was also scathing, and as the season kicked off in Melbourne at the weekend they were not alone in their opinions.
The new qualifying system, with one session on Saturday afternoon and a second on Sunday morning, the aggregated times deciding the grid, provoked a mixed response.
Saturday's session calls for teams to run flat-out with low fuel loads, so everyone gets a sense of where they fit in on sheer speed. On Sunday they run with their race fuel, so again everyone gets a reasonable idea of the strategy rivals are planning.
The changeable Melbourne weather on Saturday created an unusual grid, which helped determine the race outcome - Renault's Giancarlo Fisichella won with Michael Schumacher an also-ran. But it also rendered Sunday's session academic since the gaps between drivers were so large. More evidence is needed before judgement can be made on the qualifying changes.
Then there is the rule that says teams must use the same engine for two race weekends. At least, that is what it should say, but this is Formula One. If an engine has to be changed before the race, the driver will be penalised 10 grid places, as happened to Michael Schumacher and Takuma Sato in Melbourne. But if an engine breaks during a race, it may be replaced without penalty.
In a ludicrous "refinement", team principals agreed on Sunday morning that you did not actually have to break an engine in the race to instal a new one for next time. Say you had the awful race BAR-Honda had, when Jenson Button and Takuma Sato had no chance of points, you could call in your drivers in the closing laps, and still be classified as finishers. "The two-weekend engine rule is to cut teams' operating costs," one observer said, "and penalise unreliability. This seems an odd way of doing that."
Felipe Massa thinks the characteristics of Malaysia's Sepang track will promote "a lot more overtaking" in the next grand prix on 20 March. Let us hope so. The jury is out, but the verdict is likely to be that Formuala One's powerbrokers have a lot more tweaking to do.
