Wyo. initiative seeks to reduce police suicides
In 2012, there were 129 LODD in the US, but also 126 officer suicides, says Badge of Life Program
By Kelsey Bray
The Wyoming Tribune-Eagle
CHEYENNE, Wyo. — Area officials are hoping that new programs will encourage law enforcement officers to ask for help rather than committing suicide.
In 2012, there were 129 police officer line-of-duty fatalities in the U.S. In that same year, there were 126 police officer suicides, according to the Badge of Life Police Mental Health Program.

Scientists find four faults caused shake
Relevant offers
Four and possibly more faults are now believed responsible for the September 4 earthquake.
The closest to Christchurch is thought to be between West Melton and Burnham.
The trigger for the magnitude 7.1 quake has been revealed as a hidden, "blind thrust", fault lying at depth in a broad northeast to southwest zone centred on the focus of the shake close to Charing Cross.
When that fault ruptured it quickly activated the sleeping Greendale Fault slightly further south, ripping open a nearly 30km-long gash across the Canterbury Plains.
Detailed investigations by GNS Science using satellite radar-imaging, GPS [global positioning system] calculations and computer modelling now show the likely presence of two other blind thrusts angled across the Greendale Fault.
The fault to the southwest of Hororata is thought to have ruptured underground third in the sequence, followed quickly by the fourth, around the West Melton-Sandy Knolls-Burnham area.
The scientists say this latter fault helps explain the intense shallow aftershock activity near Rolleston and across to Lincoln.
At this week's GeoNZ conference in Auckland, GNS seismologist Dr Caroline Holden and colleague, geophysicist Dr John Beavan, outlined their findings.
Holden said the 7.1 magnitude was accounted for by an about 6.3 magnitude quake lasting two to four seconds on the Charing Cross fault, followed by a 6.9 shake lasting seven to 18 seconds on the Greendale Fault and a close to 6.5 jolt of 15 to 18 seconds on the feature near Hororota.
Beavan's calculations were slightly different, with the initial quake of magnitude 6.5, followed by shakes of 7.0 and 6.2. He believed the last rupture, on the fourth fault, generated a quake of about 6.5.
"We have got more work to do towards the eastern end of the Greendale Fault. Something else is going on there.
"It was a very complex earthquake. Why was it so complex? Are most earthquakes like this ... or is there something special about the tectonics in the Canterbury region?"
The fault near Burnham had not shown up in satellite imagery because it was a subtle feature, Beavan said.
"There are probably several bits of fault, little segments that break, but I suspect they are not as important as the other faults. There may be other ones too."
GNS seismologist Dr Bill Fry said the hard volcanic rocks of Banks Peninsula could have affected the way the earthquake was felt in Christchurch.
His analysis showed that from about 16 seconds into the quake, energy was radiating outwards from the peninsula.
"It looks like a lot of energy from the original two ruptures was going into Banks Peninsula and reflected back up into Christchurch."
Another GNS seismologist, Dr Martin Reyners, said a zone of shallow aftershock activity around Rolleston and Lincoln appeared to stop at the edge of the peninsula.
"As you approach Christchurch the aftershocks get shallower and shallower.
"That shallowing most likely reflects a change in the crustal structure there," he said.

CNBC: Musk should stop dreaming so big: Bill George

Bill George, Harvard Business School, discusses what it really takes to get and keep top talent in your organization. And what impact could Brexit have on banks.
This content was originally posted on CNBC.com on 6/20/16.
In our series "The Price of Profits," we're exploring corporations. What are they for? Whom are they for? And how that impacts the economy and you. Bill George is the senior fellow at the Harvard Business School and the former CEO of Medtronic. During his time as CEO, George took a long-term approach to growing Medtronic into a booming business. He spoke with Marketplace host Kai Ryssdal about shareholder value and the problems with short-term thinking. On the prevalence of shareholder-value thinking:
I think we've moved way too much towards what's called shareholder value and away from taking into account creating value for all your stakeholders. You've got to think about how you're creating values for your customers and in turn your employees. If you do that, well you'll have great value for your shareholders.
On the reporting requirements for companies:
I think we should take the Warren Buffet approach at looking at the underlying financial metrics and not trying to meet the stock markets expectations. I always told the stock market 'those are your expectations, my job is to build the company and achieve the goals we've announced to you.' But I do think we should report quarterly. I think it's a good discipline and because it gives investors a current look at what's happening.
On companies engaging in buybacks:
There's no evidence that in the long term buying back stock increases the stock price. If companies have excess cash, like say Apple does, I think it can be a very good thing to give some of that excess cash back to the shareholders. But if you're depleting your ability to invest in research and development, in capital expenditures, in expansion or acquisitions, I think it's a mistake.

Former Chairman and CEO of Medtronic, Senior Fellow at the Harvard Business School, and author of Discover Your True North, Bill discusses finding your own True North – the internal compass that sets one on a path toward their fullest potential as a leader. Today's global business community calls for leaders who will change the world for the better and inspire others around them to do the same.

I asked a few leaders about their concept of leadership. Typical answers are: it's a position, role, job, or responsibility. One rare response I heard is that "leadership is acting." You fill in a leadership position and you're expected to act in a certain acceptable manner. To be effective as a President, you've got to look and sound Presidential.
Their detractors may not like it, but Rodrigo Duterte and Donald Trump are presumptive winners in their separate quests for leadership posts in opposite parts of the world. Their similarity doesn't end there.
Both leaders don't exactly fit the conservative mold of traditional leaders. They make quick, binding statements that they later reverse or "clarify." A little more finesse in their deportment or language can improve their image, but they didn't seem to bother about them during the campaign. Their followers saw a brighter future with them at the helm. WYSIWYG. What you see is what you get.
From the time of the Greek philosophers, to the time of Shakespeare, and until Bill George wrote his book in 2003, people have been amazed at how authenticity became a revered trait of great leaders. In Shakespeare's Hamlet, Polonius said, "To thy own self be true."
You've heard of different types and styles of leadership – benevolent, fierce, autocratic, tough-minded, failure-tolerant, participative, or servant leadership. Starting in early 2000s, authentic leadership became part of the vocabulary of modern management art and science.
From a practical sense, if you were the follower, you wouldn't be comfortable with a leader who wears different masks. During office hours, your boss is a non-nonsense stickler to the rules, flagellating employees to produce the last ounce of productivity. At five o'clock, he transforms before your eyes to an inveterate gambler, womanizer and drunkard. Before the clock strikes 12, he's a henpecked husband bringing midnight snacks for the wife and kids.
The term authentic leadership has had many meanings and slants, but many gurusagree that authentic leaders:
Are self-aware and genuine. They're aware of their own strengths, limitations, and emotions. They're not afraid to show their real self to their constituencies. They act consistently, whether in public or alone with their close friends. They don't hide their mistakes, nor are they afraid that they will look weak because of past mistakes.
Are mission-driven and results-oriented. They're able to subordinate their personal interests to the bigger goals the organization. They are passionate with what they do, and will follow through completion the results they seek to achieve, not for their own glory, power, money or ego, but for the genuine good of the organization and its constituents.
Lead with their heart. They use both the heart and mind. They're not afraid to show emotions. Like all humans, they have their own vulnerability. They could cry when showing empathy to others. This doesn't mean they're "soft." They just know how to connect with the people they lead.
Focus on the long term. In Bill George's model, authentic leaders are focused on the long-term. They nurture organizations and people over the long term, and spend time and effort to ensure continuity of leadership and organizations. They despise short-termism that can show current benefits and prefer large dividends for the people and the organization over extended periods.
In his book, Bill George deplored the way some CEOs were running large organizations. He wrote, "… integrity, stewardship and sound governance are deeper issues that must be addressed by leaders themselves." To build enduring organizations, George believes that leaders of the highest integrity must have the "courage to build their companies to meet the needs of all their stakeholders, and recognize the importance of their service to society."
Authentic leaders have a genuine desire to serve others, empower the people they lead to make a difference, and are "guided by passion and compassion as they are by their logical minds." George thinks that an authentic leader must develop his or her own leadership style "consistent with his or her personality and character. The authenticity of the leader is more important than the style with which the leader leads. To be authentic means to accept one's faults and shortcomings, as well as to use one's strengths in bringing the organization and the people to a better future."
Simply put, authenticity is being genuine, not pretending to be someone else. However, it doesn't mean, "This is me. I am bad, and I shall always be bad. I am your leader, and you have to follow or else …"
On the other hand, it means, "I may not be perfect, but because I care for you and our group, I will improve myself where I am weak. I will use my strengths to get us to where we all want to be. I will not pretend to be what I am not. Let's help each other achieve our shared vision of a better future."
Henna Inam said, "Authentic leadership is the full expression of ME for the benefit of WE."

Health care companies face challenging times as they adapt to the Affordable Care Act (ACA) while still delivering for customers and shareholders. Most companies have navigated these fast-changing times well. But three bad actors – former Turing CEO Martin Shkreli, former Valeant CEO Michael Pearson, and Theranos' Elizabeth Holmes – threaten to drag down the legitimate companies.
The Price Gouger
Pharma's bad boy Shkreli became the poster child for abusing patients through price gouging by hiking the price of Daraprim, a 62-year-old HIV/AIDS drug, from $13.50 to $750 per pill. Then he had the audacity to flaunt it by saying, "I wish I had raised prices more." Merck CEO Ken Frazier called Shkreli "a hedge fund guy masquerading as a pharmaceutical executive."
Shkreli incurred the wrath of the general public. Even presidential candidates rebuked him. His actions had broad implications because they threatened the already unsteady alliance between big pharmaceutical companies and the Obama Administration. These pharmaceutical companies had agreed to pay $70 billion to support ACA in exchange for a legal restriction on the U.S. government in negotiating drug prices.
The "Quick Fix" CEO
Valeant's Pearson also raised prices 500-800% on older drugs, but his flawed approach went much further. He claimed his company did not need to do research on new drugs because it could simply buy older drugs and take over companies like Salix and Bausch & Lomb. His business model called for limiting drug development expenses to 3% of revenues and paying only 3% in taxes through a series of clever tax schemes. Big investors like Sequoia, Pershing Square, and Value Act talked up the stock as Valeant's market capitalization rose to $91 billion. And several other mid-sized pharmaceutical companies copied Valeant's approach.
Those with a long-term view called out Valeant's short-term game. Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton ran ads attacking the company. Warren Buffett told CNBC, "You wouldn't want your son to grow up like Mike Pearson." Buffett's partner, Charlie Munger, called Valeant a "sewer." The game ran out when a short-seller exposed Valeant's distribution through specialty pharmacies that forced enormous price increases. In the past six months, Valeant investors have lost $81 billion, dragging down the activist funds that propelled the company's growth.
The Promoter
Theranos' Holmes claimed her company could render obsolete the one billion blood draws done in the U.S. with a simple prick of the finger – an exciting prospect that caused investors to value her private company at $9.1 billion. Her board of directors included several former U.S. senators and former presidential cabinet members, but few with experience in medical technology.
With her story and her glamour, Holmes became the darling of the media and Silicon Valley moguls. Theranos went directly to the consumer market by cutting big deals with Walgreens and Safeway, but Holmes never produced any test data to validate the claims, citing confidentiality concerns. The media passively accepted her lack of transparency.
Then the Wall Street Journal published an expose calling into question the effectiveness of the company's testing methods and scrutinizing its resistance to share test results to back up its claims. WSJ published this piece in spite of heavy pressure from Theranos' legal team, which was led by high-profile lawyer David Boies. Since the WSJ article was published, the company has imploded. Now the U.S. government has launched a criminal investigation to determine whether Holmes intentionally misled her investors. Thus far, Holmes has yet to produce validated test results proving Theranos' claims.
A Hippocratic Oath for Health Care Companies
While these three companies and their leaders will be mere footnotes in business history, they cause great harm to legitimate companies trying to help patients. Their missteps confirm the importance of putting patients first, rigorous testing, FDA oversight, transparency, and pricing products to support patient access, regardless of their income bracket.
When scandals occur, they have a negative impact on companies that are doing things right. The subsequent public outcry tends to harm the committed, experienced companies, as politicians paint all health care companies with the same brush. This leads to delays in the FDA approval process for the most scientifically minded companies, denying patients products they need. It also creates public pressure for price controls.
Theranos, Valeant, and Turing took multiple shortcuts, and they won handsome short-term rewards for their behavior. But others who jumped on board have now lost billions. Neither Shkreli, Pearson, nor Holmes had any health care experience before taking over their companies: Shkreli worked at hedge funds, Pearson was a McKinsey consultant, and Holmes was a 19-year-old freshman at Stanford. Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg's motto of "move fast and break things" may be valid for social media, but it doesn't work for heart surgery, drug development, or medical devices.
The first rule of the Hippocratic Oath all doctors take is, "First, do no harm." Why did Theranos, Valeant, and Turing assume so much risk? They focused on the short-term at the expense of their companies, their patients, and the health care industry. These companies proved what others have known all along: when you're dealing with human health, shortcuts backfire.
Worst of all, these three companies fostered the impression that health care companies try to take advantage of an unsuspecting public. As a result, legitimate medical entrepreneurs now have trouble finding the funding required to do rigorous clinical trials in leading academic medical centers—something that Theranos refused to do.
For capitalism to work in the medical field, companies must be able to make the long-term investments required for breakthrough bio-pharmaceuticals and medical therapies. There are no shortcuts and no quick paths to market, but the long-term payoff can be enormous.
Investors with a fiduciary responsibility to their clients should carefully evaluate the leaders of companies they are investing in to ascertain their medical expertise and soundness. Entrepreneurs, who are essential to foster medical breakthroughs, need to learn the lessons from these bad actors and avoid taking shortcuts when human lives are at stake. We need to be patient with healthcare timelines, so we can enjoy the tremendous benefits that legitimate companies can offer.

The answer to this question depends on the severity of muscle soreness, which can range from slight tenderness to debilitating pain. Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) happens 1 -2 days after exercise. The most likely cause of DOMS is microscopic muscle tears or a breakdown in muscle tissue that occurs during a workout. Introducing new activities or suddenly increasing the intensity can cause DOMS to occur.
During periods of severe muscle soreness, a person has impaired coordination, less shock absorption, and a shortened range of motion. If you exercise while very sore you are likely to alter your body mechanics putting more stress on ligaments and tendons and therefore increasing your risk of injury.
Overreaching is the state of training intensely without rest. This leads to overtraining and a decline in athletic performance. It takes several weeks to months for this condition to occur, but watch for any of the following signs or symptoms, and take a few days to a few weeks off if these are present:
In either case, you're better off resting to allow your body to recover and seeking a medical professional if necessary.
If you're only slightly sore, exercise can bring relief, although only temporarily. Take it easy by doing light resistance exercise (such as core stabilization exercises) or by doing low intensity cardio (such as walking). Better yet, exercise muscles other than the ones that are sore.
Training programs should be designed to allow muscle recovery, which usually takes 48-72 hours, depending on the type of training done and the intensity of that training. People who lift weights every day will split their routines so they can work different muscle groups on different days. Large muscle groups such as the quadriceps and hamstrings should be given the greater amount of time to recover (72 hours) while smaller muscles, especially the postural muscles of the core, are built for endurance and therefore can be exercised more frequently, such as every 48 hours. Remember that muscles don't grow during a workout, only during rest periods following exercise. If you don't allow your body to recover, you won't see the benefits of your workouts.

Truly, Wild Beasts are those rarest of animals; true, untamed originals.
Underneath these filmy and seductive layers is not a band in limbo. This may be Wild Beasts' first album, but they've got a fully developed aesthetic, one that is thematically and vocally alien, but sonically, pop and conventional.
UrbNot to be taken lightly, dramatic tone and lyrical silliness obscure a sinister impulse throbbing within the album, spitting delightfully mysterious candy machines baubles onto your eager palm. [Nov/Dec 2008, p.87]
It exists in its own eccentric, unique universe, and that is the best thing that any debut album can do.
As a whole, Limbo, Panto's uniqueness translates to something remarkably special and substantial rather than mere luster.
There's every sense that Wild Beasts are happy embracing their own ridiculousness and there's enough cheeky humour here, "chocs away!" shagging scenarios and references to old boys and institutions to suggest that whilst there's serious musical craft at foot, the whole lark's just a jolly good old wheeze and "Limbo, Panto" is all the more fun for it.
Under The RadarWild Beasts have an art rock sensibility for sure, but these songs read like deranged fairy tales of clamoring male maturity. [Fall 2008, p.85]

Very professional and fun crew!!! Well worth getting up early in the morning and the price. Recommend bringing a light jacket for the ride out to the snorkel site. There were plenty of fish (recommend buying fish food) and sea turtles. SNUBA was a must do and plenty of time to snorkel if you'd like to do that as well. It was my first SNUBA adventure and was very easy after the initial few minutes or getting used to the regulator.

This is an amazing and powerful memorial to visit while in Hawaii. We did the audio tour which is excellent and walks you through everything that happened that day and the days following. It was a great learning experience for our kids age 10 and 15, although our 10 year old got tired of the audio tour about 3/4 of the way through. I still highly recommend it!

Julius Peppers (Getty Images)
Bears head coach Marc Trestman and general manager Phil Emery dodged questions about Peppers' future, and both fell back on familiar themes — namely that Peppers, like many of the 8-8 Bears, had an up-and-down season.
Still, Trestman said Peppers was an important player on the team.
"Julius Peppers is under contract, and he's been very important to our football team," Trestman said. "I don't think anything more needs to be said."
But it does. The Bears would free up tons of space from Peppers' unwieldy contract, which was not commensurate with his level of play. Emery gave a similarly noncommittal answer on Peppers' future with the team.
"Julius is on our football team," Emery said. "He's under contract. We're coming off an 8-8 season. We have a lot to evaluate. That's where our heads [are] at."
The more Trestman and Emery give flat-line responses on Peppers, the more we reinforce our ideas that he'll be on another team's roster next season, despite Trestman's "important" claim.

Complete 2009 NCAA Tournament Bracket in PDF Format
LOGAN, Utah - Utah State men's basketball will make its sixth NCAA Tournament appearance in 10 years when the 11th-seeded Aggies take on sixth-seeded Marquette in the first round of the NCAA West Regional on Friday at Taco Bell Arena at Boise, Idaho.
Utah State (30-4 overall, 14-2 WAC) is making it first appearance in the NCAA Tournament in three years, but its sixth in the last 10 years and seventh in the last 12 years. Overall, the Aggies are making their 18th NCAA Tournament appearance. USU's last NCAA Tournament was in 2006, when the Aggies dropped a 75-61 decision to fifth-seeded Washington in the first round.
This is the first time ever that USU has faced Marquette. The Aggies are 6-9 all-time vs. teams from the Big East, last facing a Big East team in 2000 when USU took on Connecticut in the NCAA Tournament, losing 75-67. Marquette is 9-1 all-time vs. teams from the WAC, with New Mexico State the only team to beat the Golden Eagles, 73-69, in 1972.
In its previous 17 appearances, Utah State is 6-19. The last USU NCAA Tournament victory was in 2001 when the Aggies beat Ohio State, 77-68, in overtime, in the first round.
This is USU's second time as a No. 11 seed since the NCAA started seedings in 1980, joining the 1980 Aggies, who lost to Clemson, 76-73. The 11th seed is USU's highest NCAA seed since 1983 when Utah State was a 10th seed.
Utah State is coming off its Western Athletic Conference Tournament championship win with a 72-62 victory over Nevada Saturday night at Reno, Nev., as the Aggies swept the WAC titles after winning their second-straight regular-season WAC championship.
Saturday's win was USU's school-record 30th win of the season, bettering the 2000 and 2001 USU teams that each finished with 28-6 records, going to the NCAA Tournament both seasons. Overall, it is the 25th time in school history that Utah State has won 20 or more games. USU has won 23 or more games in each of the last 10 seasons, which is a school record. Only Gonzaga and Kansas have matched USU's current streak of 10-straight 23 seasons.
Utah State's 30 wins are the second-most wins in the nation this year behind only Memphis (31-3). USU is also one of just five teams in the nation with four or fewer losses joining Connecticut (27-4), Memphis, North Carolina (28-3), and Pittsburgh (28-4).
The Aggies are led by WAC Player of the Year and Tournament MVP Gary Wilkinson, as the senior forward averages 17.1 points and 6.9 rebounds per game. Wilkinson was named first-team all-District 6 by7 the National Association of Basketball Coaches last week.
Also averaging in double-figures is junior guard Jared Quayle with 12.9 ppg and sophomore forward Tai Wesley with 11.9 ppg.
The winner of the Utah State-Marquette game will play the winner of third-seeded Missouri and 14th-seeded Cornell on Sunday.

Seriously good still-life nature vibes from artist Elizabeth Atterbury
Now this is beautiful! A lot of people are chucking detritus on to coloured backgrounds these days, so it comes as a real refreshing surprise when an artist like Elizabeth Atterbury comes along and shows the world how it's done.
In these meticulous compositions, inspired by curious aspects of nature, Elizabeth combines her brilliant collage and photography work to make art. As well as turning these little arrangements of sweet objects into photography, Elizabeth also turns them into mini-installations which look so, so great in a gallery. Have a browse through her website, then go and dig out those rocks and shells you've had for a few years and do something creative with them. I know what I'm doing this evening!

In reply to:
Anfernee Cheang: I can understand the purpose of 24-85, but I don't understand why it is not 24-85/F2.8-4. In my point of view, the old 24-85/F2.8-4 is far better than the old 24-85/F3.5-4.5, in all aspects such as sharpness, color, speed, and the unique 1:2 macro mode.
The only work Nikon needs to do is to improve the coating of the glasses, and add SWM. That's it! Why not, Nikon?

News from BadassBuddy
September 2010
On Sep 24, 2010, BadassBuddy will be 10 years old.
A decade ago BadassBuddy.com went from 0 to Badass in about 2.5 lunar cycles (the Web's 21st fastest growing site at the time), and the birth of an Internet anti-hero turned into a fleeting past-time for millions of chat-zombies around the globe (before SpaceBook took ownership of the majority of our free time). At times BadassBuddy was almost as impressive as the best xkcd ever!, with aspirations of being just half as cool as the worst Homestar Runner ever. (..negatory..)
10 years ago the BadassBuddy concept essentially began with just one simple piece of "edgy" pixel art that made AOL Instant Messenger®© appear to have a nifty new feature:
Unfortunately, pixel art has since been considered a dying art form, however the ninjas over at pixeljoint.com will show you that pixel creativity is in fact still very much alive (and I know you still love retro video gaming when you're not FPS'ing and rocking out with pretend instruments).
So I'd like to wish BadassBuddy a happy 10 year anniversary, but more importantly I'd like to thank the brilliant artists, the mediocre artists (gotta start somewhere), the blog entry contributors, the web designers and content managers, the rockingest server admin ever, and everybody else involved, for all of the hard work and passion that went in to making a unique contribution to the interwebs.

Ordered items from Zara but courier (Hermes) called three times without leaving any contact detials, so parcel returned undelivered. Zara then refused to redeliver to the original address saying they didnt beleive we lived there. We offered an alternative address but parcel did not arrive. Have been told it was delivered and signed for by a mystery woman! No such person exists, and we cant get refund or repalcmeent goods. Absoutely terrible service and appalling response from the customer service centre. Have had no problems like this with any other company we have ordered online from - they all managed to get the parcels delivered to the right address, and always left contact detials of the courier if we were not in, so alternative date could be arranged.

The Detroit Tigers' recent decision to host Robocop as a ceremonial first-pitch-thrower got us thinking about the countless other bizarre first-pitch-invitees over baseball's history. Normally, a team selects a popular celebrity, political figure, or musician to partake in the opening event. But in certain American cities and overseas leagues, baseball operations have a slightly more liberal idea about who, or what, should kick off a night's festivities. The following pitches include some surprisingly impressive athletic motions while others prove to be pathetic, like Robocop's (aren't you supposed to be a superhero or something, dude?). But this list isn't based off the outcome of the pitches thrown, because we're not trying to embarrass those who have already embarrassed themselves in front of thousands of people. Instead, we present 10 of the most peculiar choices to take the mound before the start of a baseball game, accompanied by videos that will make you scratch your head.
In 2005 the Red Sox elected for a movie character that can't even speak English throw the first pitch at a game. Interesting move. His escorts Han Solo and Princess Leia add to the uncomfortable nature of this experience. The others make a brief cameo and are evidently just there as moral support for the Wookiee. It was a clever promotional technique, but it probably made fans wonder whether they were at a sporting event or in the jungles of Chewy's homeland, Kashyyyk.
She's a comedic YouTube sensation, but is she well recognized enough to be chosen for the ceremonial pitch at an LA Dodgers game? For some reason I don't think the audience watching her girl-oriented parodies on the little things in life overlaps with the sports fanatics at Dodger Stadium. Jenna Marbles had to be pretty low on management's list of "First Pitch Candidates", but she kept the ball in the strike zone, so that's gotta count for something.
After watching the video, you can understand why Soo-ji was asked to participate in the pregame events at this South Korean showdown. Still, I can't wrap my mind around how she twists her body like that. I also need to know, who's in charge of picking who takes the mound? Shin Soo-ji is a member of the South Korean National "Rhythmic Gymnast" Team, meaning the exposure is certainly there. But what human being saw her on television and thought, "That's the perfect person for the ceremonial pitch!" Did her agent hook this up? Or did she contact the team herself? So many lingering questions.
In this video, nerds and baseball collide for the first time since "Moneyball". Science meets sports in this anti-climatic display of technological advancement. But seriously, didn't someone already design a training machine that throws a ball 5 times faster and more accurately than this? I get that it's an amazing achievement for local college students to have designed this machine, but the bot's handler just stands there awkwardly the whole time. It would have been a better time for the fans if they had found an athletic entertainer, say, I don't know, 50 Cent, to start things off.
The entertainment factor dissipates quickly when you realize you can see the T-Rex operator's legs moving underneath the costume while he runs off the field. Sadly, the ball only travels about 20-feet in the air. It probably would have helped if the dinosaur had practiced once or twice before taking the mound. It's an interesting media stunt, but in the end it just goes to show that the Tyrannosaurus Rex would go extinct in the MLB.
My understanding of how this decision-making process played out:
"Well, Justin Bieber's not available for the ceremonial pitch. Just found out he'll be in jail overnight on drug charges. Who are we going to find on such a short notice?"
"Hmm, Cirque Du Soleil is in town…let's see if we can have them send someone over to do some acrobatics and toss the ball."
"You sure? That's kind of out-there and has no relevant connection to our city or team."
"It's the best we can do. Heck, no one even come to these games anyway."
(After the pitch) "Someone write down this boy's name, we'll match whatever those freaks at the circus are paying him!"
I'm by no means an expert in the art of ballet, but I have a creeping suspicion that the moves performed in the above video are just not that difficult. If you're going to have a presumably high-level dancer throw the first pitch at a baseball game, make sure she shows off some advanced moves and stays at least partly on the mound. Also, if you're going to throw a ball in front of thousands of people from half of the standard distance, make sure it comes relatively close to the catcher. If this girl could throw a mean fastball, I'd understand the choice. She belongs in a dance studio though, not on a baseball diamond.
Fans paid for tickets to this game expecting to see home-runs, not a horror movie. But the management behind this Japanese baseball squad had a different vision in mind, a show that would deliver countless goose bumps. Samara, one of the scariest movie characters in recent memory, stays in character for the entire walk to the mound, delivers a decent pitch, and collapses onto the grass in the creepiest way possible. Not quite your typical day at the ballpark. If real life stays true to the narrative of "The Ring", everyone who watched the jumbotron during this pitch mysteriously died within days. In hindsight, it was a nightmare of a selection.
Both pitches in this video are weird, but let's just talk about the first one. Holly Sanders, who I might add is a complete nobody to the average American, chips a ball from in front of the mound to the catcher. This isn't a pitch, it's actually a completely different sport. Who thought this was a good idea? Maybe if Tiger Woods were out there I'd forgive the Tampa Bay Rays organization. The San Francisco Giants invited Rory McIlroy to make an appearance once, but he actually threw the ball. A valiant creative effort, but ultimately a borderline mockery of one of baseball's greatest traditions.
The cat in this video, Tara, is widely considered a "Hero Cat" in her local community. She has her own website where you can watch her heroic defense of a helpless boy who was being attacked by a vicious dog. This is a wonderful, feel-good story that everyone loves. But not every good deed should be rewarded with a chance to throw out the first pitch of a baseball game. Especially if that deed is performed by a house pet. Regardless, someone thought it was smart to bring this cat to a game, have its owner swing its limp body parts at a ball, and call that a ceremonial pitch. No one's debating Tara's character, but she'd have been better off playing with a hairball than a baseball.

Red-Eye Gravy
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 10 mins
This is hands down the best red-eye gravy, my Dad's recipe with a few add ins.
Ingredients Nutrition
- grease from frying country ham
- 1 -2 tablespoon flour
- 1 -2 teaspoon sugar
- 1 cup hot tap water
- 1⁄2 cup strong coffee
- 1 beef bouillon cube
- 1 tablespoon butter (optional)
- Heat grease, add flour and sugar until dissolved and incorporated with ham grease. Add water, coffee and bullion cube, stir until gravy is well blended. Turn down heat and cook for 1 minute, add butter and cook for 1 minute longer. Serve immediately with hot biscuits or grits.
Most Helpful
I was looking for a version of red-eye gravy with less sugar than most and this one fit the bill. I added 1/4 cup of sliced scallions and 3/4 cup of mushrooms and it turned out great. I cut about 12 ounces from the center of an 19 ounce Costco ham slice (saving the rest for brunch this weekend).
I was able to do the whole thing in one cast iron skillet (ah, one pan cooking, I love it) doing it like this:
Heat grease, add flour and sugar in a cast iron skillet until dissolved and incorporated with ham grease. Saute scallions and mushrooms till softened slightly. Add water, coffee and bouillon cube (i used Beef Better Than Bouillon), stir until gravy is well blended. Push scallions and mushrooms to outside edges of pan. Add ham slices to center of skillet. Remove ham slices to warm oven when heated through and tent with foil. Add water, coffee and bullion cube, stir until gravy is well blended. Turn down heat and cook for 1 minute, add butter and cook for 1 minute longer.
Since cast iron doesn't really conduct heat that well, it was 100° hotter in the center of the pan for browning the ham slice and the outer edge didn't burn the scallions and mushrooms.
Thanks for posting this, we really enjoyed it.
I'm sure this must be tasty but sorry.....if it's not made from ham drippings and coffee it is NOT red eye gravy.
Hey Jabhook! We had never heard of Red Eye Gravy before today. We had pickled pork to cook and used a different method - roasting rather than slow cooking in water, like silverside (not sure if you have that in the US). We love our gravy and weren't sure what to have and stumbled upon this recipe. We give 5 stars if there is nothing about the recipe we would change - so ka - ching!! Well done to your Dad with your tweaks.

And to be honest, I feel a bit like the twenty-year-old me just hanging on with all my strength until God shows me a way out of this place of discouragement and disappointment.
Some days I cry out to Jesus with all I have in me.
I scream. And I sob.
And I lay the weight of all my uncertainty upon His back.
But on other days, I wait in silence, unable to articulate what my heart so desperately desires, too weary to put words to my wishing.
And you know what?
I'm learning that both responses are okay.
Prayer is more than words and wishing.
It's more than asking Jesus to FIX my circumstances.
Prayer is a choice to AFFIX myself to the King of Kings.
It's choosing to fix my mind on WHO I KNOW GOD TO BE even when I have no idea what He's doing.
So, on many days, when I don't know what to say, I simply pray God's Word right back to Him.
I personalize His promises with my name.
I speak His truth aloud as an act of faith, knowing full well that Satan quakes when God's Word is declared with confidence.
