Most comfortable bed and sheets ever in a hotel ... Arrived late, departed early so not much time to "enjoy" but very pleasant experience overall!Tikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas
Overall the stay was good. The room and rest of the hotel was very clean and the bed was comfortable. We stayed in a king suite. The suite part was not what I was expecting as the 2 rooms were far from separate with virtually no divider between them.Tikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas
"Nothing special, but nothing bad."
In town with 2 boys for a baseball tournament. Spent very little time in the hotel except for showering and sleeping. Two pools, both small, but adequate. A nice quick breakfast on the go.Tikri "Expedia" svečių atsiliepimai
"Easy access to interstate"
The hotel is in the midst of renovating which it desperately needs. Parking was at times difficult to find because of construction material in the parking lot. Our room's thermostat was set on 60 degrees but it never got any cooler than 79 degrees.Tikri "Expedia" svečių atsiliepimai

From previous reviews I was expecting something not that great. But the hotel was very good, probably the best you'll find in Monroe. Renovations were nearly complete. Breakfast was good. Just had problems with parking coming back late in the evening.Tikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas
"The hotel was convenient"
It was ok. Good breakfast but deadbolt didn't work on the door and the bathroom faucet was loose. Pull out bed wasn't very comfortable.Tikri "Expedia" svečių atsiliepimai
"Hotel Policies Not Enforced"
Arrived on Monday, knew hotel was under renovation which was not a problem. The manager/owner must not have worked that day. The hotel staff had there kids in the pool, me and my son went down and it was to crazy for him to swim. The reason i knew that did not stay there was I witnessed them getting in a vehicle and leave and not return. Also there […] were 5 o'clock snacks which some of the staff brought out to the kids and there parents. They also allowed non hotel guest to do laundry. Which resulted in them hanging around in the hall like a laundry mat. Later in the stay when owner and manager were there the family members of the staff were not around. The staff was very friendly and room was clean. Wanted peace not rift raft wandering around. Skaityti daugiauTikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas

We made reservations at this hotel and were not informed about remodeling to major portions of the lobby. The service was great and our room was great!

The hotel is nice and safe. It is a little difficult to get to from the main highway, but not to bad of a location.

"OK but not stellar"
The hotel was not bad, but I probably won't stay there again. There was some mold on the bathroom ceiling and other minor things that made you feel as if it may not have been seriously deep cleaned in a while. It wasn't really dirty, but it felt old and not sparklingly clean. For the price it was reasonable.Tikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas

"House keeping"
My only complaint about my stay at your hotel is: Check out time was noon; at 8:45 we get a knock at the door or should I say several knocks at the door. My wife and I had been up late so we were sleeping in. I had to get out of bed to answer the knock to discover the house keepers cart ready to enter my room. Not a good thing to be awakened for. Is […] there no consideration for a guest trying to get some sleep before a long drive home? I told the woman we were going to get up and dress and she could come back a little later. Before we could shower and dress we got yet another knock on the door to see if they could enter. Not yet was my reply as my wife was not quite ready to leave. Upon the 3rd knock we figured enough was enough. We gathered our things and left. Suggestion for your cleaning staff: when a guest has until noon to check out - wait until noon or check with the desk to see if the room is vacated.

"Great place- minus the smell"
Everything about our stay was great except that the room had a sour odor. The room was clean, but I gave a 3 for that due to the weird smell.

I would probably go back, but maybe request a different area of the hotel.Tikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas

"SuperWarehouse.com has to be the worst online reseller I have every dealt with. I ordered a Sony AIT tape drive, that their site said was in-stock, on a Monday, and by Wednesday still hadn't received a shipment confirmation. I sent numerous emails (their website says they commit to responding to your email within 1-2 hours) and received no responses to this day. On Thursday, I called them, and they told me that the shipment had gone out and would arrive the next day. Well, it's the next day, and the tracking number they provided me doesn't register at FedEx as anything other than the shipment details have been transmitted; it's not arriving today, and who knows when it will.The irony is that I forgot to check this site for reviews before ordering from them. I usually order from NewEgg exclusively, but they didn't have the AIT tape drive I needed so I ended up just purchasing from the first vendor that I found that had one in stock.My experience with this vendor was completely negative, and I still have never received any responses to the numerous emails that I sent them. I would strongly encourage others to seek a different vendor if you are expecting a modern order-fulfillment system or responsive customer support.[EDIT]: Ok, Fedex finally got some updated tracking information, and it's supposed to arrive on April 8th. So, there you have it: superwarehouse.com told me over the phone that it would arrive today, while FedEx says it will arrive next Tuesday. Still no shipment confirmation email from SuperWarehouse.com, and still no response to any of the emails that I sent to customer service."
"for ur inbox's sake beware of these spammers. theyre relentless. ive advised them multiple times to cut it out, but the spam keeps coming."
"Ordered a $500 server chassis. It was cheaper than anywhere else, and hard to find. It was delivered 2 days after my order, with the free ground shipping.Great."
"Ordered sunday, they shipped monday, I got it tuesday. What more can I say?"
"Decent audio/video cables are wildly overpriced, and when my old reliable, NewEgg, didn't have what I wanted (25 feet of brand-name component video cable) at the price I wanted, I Googled for a bit and came on this store selling "Cables To Go" Velocity cable at $25 plus $5 ground shipping.See that past buyers had some problems with their online store posting that items were in stock when they weren't, I decided to call the order in.My call was picked up quickly. The sales rep (Don Brunettie) told me they had plenty of the cables in stock, then checked to see what drop-shippers were closest to me (the company is in CA, I'm in NY), picking NJ as the nearest.I placed the order at 5pm EST, September 5th, and they arrived via Fedex September 7th.Most of the time I skip over companies with mediocre ResellerRating, but this time I'm happy I took the risk. "
"I have ordered many times now from this site for toner for various printers we have here in office, and every order has gotten here in a timely manner, generally less than 3 days on standard shipping. I just felt that someone with a positive experience should speak up after reading the other reviews on this site."
"The company representative was not upfront about the 15% restocking fee charged for returned items when I placed a telephone order. Needless to say, I was not happy to learn about this when the item was returned. There are so many options in retailers for purchasing of electronic components, that I will never purchase from Superwarehouse.com again and I would advise others to buy elsewhere."
"Excellent ServiceI was one of those who ordered a portable firewire drive at an incredible price only to find that it was a pricing mistake. I thought that my order would be cancelled but much to my surprise I had an email from the CEO explaining that the mistake was theirs and a promise to fulfill my order with a request for a little patience as they sorted the mess out. About two weeks later the drive arrived and has performed like a champ.This is a company that went well above and beyond their obligations to keep a customer happy and I will have no hesitation in ordering from them again."
"Very good customer service- I'll make a point of doing business with them again.They had an amazing price on a portable hard drive over the weekend, so I bought two. I got an email from them on Monday that the price on the web site was a mistake, but that they would make good on the order since it was their error. It took a couple of weeks to ship (due to the large volume of orders they got over the weekend), but I'm impressed with their commitment to customer service. In my experience, most web merchants would have canceled everyone's orders for a price mistake like this."
"I ordered a Belkin 16-port gigE switch (F5D5141-16) from Superwarehouse last night. It was listed for $93.99 and clearly marked "In stock." This morning, "Adam" writes me, "Unfortunately the item you ordered is back ordered. Our warehouse is expecting these items around the end of March." That's six weeks! The product is still marked "in stock" this morning. Adam continued, "I would like to suggest contacting our sales team that would be more than happy to help in assisting you find a replacement for this item that is in stock." When I did, the response was "We've got other gigabit switches, but nothing in that price range." Sorry, but this is just fraudulent advertising."
"Avoid this place! I placed an order for a Antec Nine Hundred PC case. It was cheaper than Newegg by about $25 so I did it. The webpage listed the case as in stock. I ordered it on a Monday. By midweek, it still had NOT shipped. When I emailed the company, a woman by the name of Barbara would keep sending me the same form letter over and over which basically just said "your order is still in processsing and should ship soon".Wow, thanks for all your help!! Thursday, it FINALLY shipped. They never gave explanation of why an order placed on Monday could not ship until Thursday, yet the product was in stock. I won't be ordering from them again!"
"Received product in a timely manner. As a mail order company we ordered 12 rolls of Zebra labels for "stock". Upon using the first roll mid-december we discovered that the rolls where not thermal as they should be. Super Warehouse REFUSE to exchange the product due to their 30 days policy. We do not want our money back, this is not a seasonal product and we made no error in ordering. The product is defective and we simply want to exchange it! Their "your satisfaction is our highest priority" on their invoice is just lip service.. nothing to back up such a philosophy.So unless you order a product that you know you will be able to use right away or test right away, I would never order or trust this company for our supplies. A VERY disappointed customer."
"Item showed in stock. I ordered it for overnight delivery. I called to check the order the next day and was told the item was discontinued, but a 'rep' was able to find one from another source and would sell it to me. The catch? It would cost more money for his efforts...BOGUS business practices. I would not recommend this company."
"I purchased a duplex unit from this company. I received it in a very timely fashion, but it didn't work. I contacted them about 10 days after the item was received, no reply. Sent a second and third email, still no reply. Finally I contacted the San Diego BBB and once they contacted them the company finally replied and lied about they never received the email from me and then later stating that it was more than 30 days later. YEAH...the third time WAS more than 30 days later, but the first and second weren't. I will never do business with this company again. If you buy something and it works, good for you. If not, don't expect this company to help you until you get the big guns involved. Then when they finally replied, they wanted me to ship it back on my dime. So I lost money paying to get a defective component sent to me, then I have to lose more money to send it back. I don't think so. Luckily, my friend knew someone who could fix the unit."
"After reading some of the previous reviews I was a bit hesitant to place an order. I needed a high capacity toner cartridge and SuperWarehouse was 10% cheaper than any other site. As an added bonus, ground shipping was only $0.99. I was astonished to receive my order 3 business days later! Based on user comments I did verify that the part number was the one I ordered. Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase!"

Good warm-up or beginner lead. Liebacking or jamming up dihedral with lots of feet ledges on the left wall.
Keep going left a ways past Scarface. It's the easy-looking route right of Black Uhuru 100 - 200 yards. There's a short #1s 5.11 crack to the right of this route.
Mainly #1s, a couple of .75s and a #2. Good anchors atop on a ledge with lots of loose rock
i believe there is now a 2nd pitch of.10 for about 60 feet starts as a sporty climb that can be protected with a blue tcu. it then goes thin hands to i believe a couple of #4 camalots. worth it just for the second pitch
2nd pitch is good! with a crack switch!
Following the Bloom IC book, I headed up the second pitch expecting to find some anchors. I followed the crack in the dihedral up and onto the flake, then up a tiny bit of offwidth back into thin hands to a low-angle, lichen-covered ledge of sorts at maybe 60 feet. No anchors. It was late, I was short on gear, and no anchors were in sight, so I retreated. Maybe someone will fill the rest of us in on where this second pitch ends :)? It is a really fun pitch! 2-3 BD #3s are very helpful on this second pitch.
When we visited in early November of 2011, a plaque at the base of the route said something like "bad anchor on second pitch" or "second pitch one bolt anchor." Can anybody confirm or deny this?
Recently tried to do the second pitch of this route....my partner climbed up through the nice corner, into the blocky section, and past a short offwidth/slot. He continued on for another 10 feet (for a total of around 70) and was left with a view of 30 more feet of offwidth but no visible anchors in sight. Lacking in gear and any indication that higher anchors existed, he ended down-climbing until he reached a single piece of old tat, slung around one of the blocks wedged in the corner. Although he enjoyed the climbing, he certainly would not recommend this pitch until someone places a second set of decent anchors.
I had the same experience as the previous poster. A nice second pitch but no anchor. I had no big gear so slung a chockstone (looked much better than the tat midway up the pitch), tested it many times and cleaned the pitch. The stone gave way just after I cleaned the first piece of the pitch. Landed on my feet on the P1 belay ledge with the sling floating down and 140 ft of rope out. We scratched no anchor with an up arrow at the P1 belay. Hopefully there will be no next time but, if so, I'll down aid if gear allows; a bit more work but no potentially disasterous consequences. Stay safe!
from the top of pitch one move left thin blue TCU Crack to some sporty moves thin hands to #3 cammlots to the top . an a two bolt anchor with hangers that read "no gud"
Sounds like the second pitch does not follow the obvious left facing varnished corner but goes left? Here is a neat prussik technique to descend off one point and cut your risk if you can't find an anchor. Twenty years of climbing and I've never seen this but it is a great one to know. Thanks to Pete T. for telling me - although it could have been a month earlier!!! www.petzl.com/files/all/en/activities/sport/Solutions-Sport->>>

In my opinion, a good mentor is a wise and trusted counselor or teacher. Mentors are helpful in many ways. For instance, mentors enhance training and career development, influence attitudes and professional outlook, and increases peoples self confidence. Here are some qualities of a mentor. They are willing to share skills, knowledge and expertise, authentic, personally involved, listens to your ideas, continues to learn and grow, assumes you're great, and builds you up. A good example of a mentor is Elijah. He was Elisha's mentor and taught him how to be a strong prophet throughout life and sharing God's word.

American culture and the rule of law are totally gone except for dead or living white men. America is in a total death spiral to oblivion. We are finished. Dead except for commies, socialists, celebrities and brown nosing "liberal" butt kissers, sycophants and brainwashed toadies and stooges. America and Israel go, the world is finished.

Study: Babies try lip-reading in learning to talk
BY LAURAN NEERGAARD Associated Press
Associated Press
Jan 18, 2012
| 198 views | 0
Associated Press A baby looks at a monitor while wearing a band that contains a little magnet that the head-tracker, under the monitor, uses to determine head position, which in turn enables the eye tracker to find the eye and the pupil. New research suggests babies don't learn to talk just from hearing sounds -- they're lip-readers, too. It happens during that magical stage when a baby's babbling gradually changes from gibberish into syllables and eventually into that first "mama" or "dada."
WASHINGTON — Babies don't learn to talk just from hearing sounds. New research suggests they're lip-readers too.
It happens during that magical stage when a baby's babbling gradually changes from gibberish into syllables and eventually into that first "mama" or "dada."
Florida scientists discovered that starting around age 6 months, babies begin shifting from the intent eye gaze of early infancy to studying mouths when people talk to them.
"The baby in order to imitate you has to figure out how to shape their lips to make that particular sound they're hearing," explains developmental psychologist David Lewkowicz of Florida Atlantic University, who led the study being published Monday. "It's an incredibly complex process."
Apparently it doesn't take them too long to absorb the movements that match basic sounds. By their first birthdays, babies start shifting back to look you in the eye again — unless they hear the unfamiliar sounds of a foreign language. Then, they stick with lip-reading a bit longer.
"It's a pretty intriguing finding," says University of Iowa psychology professor Bob McMurray, who also studies speech development. The babies "know what they need to know about, and they're able to deploy their attention to what's important at that point in development."
The new research appears in this week's issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. It offers more evidence that quality face-time with your tot is very important for speech development — more than, say, turning on the latest baby DVD.
It also begs the question of whether babies who turn out to have developmental disorders, including autism, learn to speak the same way, or if they show differences that just might provide an early warning sign.
Unraveling how babies learn to speak isn't merely a curiosity. Neuroscientists want to know how to encourage that process, especially if it doesn't seem to be happening on time. Plus, it helps them understand how the brain wires itself early in life for learning all kinds of things.
Those coos of early infancy start changing around age 6 months, growing into the syllables of the baby's native language until the first word emerges, usually just before age 1.
A lot of research has centered on the audio side. That sing-song speech that parents intuitively use? Scientists know the pitch attracts babies' attention, and the rhythm exaggerates key sounds. Other studies have shown that babies who are best at distinguishing between vowel sounds like "ah" and "ee" shortly before their first birthday wind up with better vocabularies and pre-reading skills by kindergarten.
But scientists have long known that babies also look to speakers' faces for important social cues about what they're hearing. Just like adults, they're drawn to the eyes, which convey important nonverbal messages like the emotion connected to words and where to direct attention.
Lewkowicz went a step further, wondering whether babies look to the lips for cues as well, sort of like how adults lip-read to decipher what someone's saying at a noisy party.
So he and doctoral student Amy Hansen-Tift tested nearly 180 babies, groups of them at ages 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 months.
How? They showed videos of a woman speaking in English or Spanish to babies of English speakers. A gadget mounted on a soft headband tracked where each baby was focusing his or her gaze and for how long.
They found a dramatic shift in attention: When the speaker used English, the 4-month-olds gazed mostly into her eyes. The 6-month-olds spent equal amounts of time looking at the eyes and the mouth. The 8- and 10-month-olds studied mostly the mouth.
At 12 months, attention started shifting back toward the speaker's eyes.
It makes sense that at 6 months, babies begin observing lip movement, Lewkowicz says, because that's about the time babies' brains gain the ability to control their attention rather than automatically look toward noise.
But what happened when these babies accustomed to English heard Spanish? The 12-month-olds studied the mouth longer, just like younger babies. They needed the extra information to decipher the unfamiliar sounds.
That fits with research into bilingualism that shows babies' brains fine-tune themselves to start distinguishing the sounds of their native language over other languages in the first year of life. That's one reason it's easier for babies to become bilingual than older children or adults.
But the continued lip-reading shows the 1-year-olds clearly still "are primed for learning," McMurray says.
Babies are so hard to study that this is "a fairly heroic data set," says Duke University cognitive neuroscientist Greg Appelbaum, who found the research so compelling that he wants to know more.
Are the babies who start to shift their gaze back to the eyes a bit earlier better learners, or impatient to their own detriment? What happens with a foreign language after 12 months?
Lewkowicz is continuing his studies of typically developing babies. He theorizes that there may be different patterns in children at risk of autism, something autism experts caution would be hard to prove.

Year: 2010
Country: SPAIN
Run Time: 98 minutes
COUSINHOOD is an American-style bromantic comedy with an added dash of Spanish cojones. It's the story of three party dudes, loyal cousins who have each other's backs. When thirtysomething Diego is left standing at the altar, macho Julian has a remedy for his broken heart. They begin by drowning their sorrows and dragging their cousin José Miguel to the seaside town where they grew up. A boozy summer festival is in full swing, where they revel with childhood friends and begin reconnecting with local traditions. Diego rediscovers his attraction to lovely Martina, who lives in his former house. Julian finds that his old friend is now the town drunk and the father of a sultry prostitute. José Miguel, a hypochondriac perpetually out of his comfort zone, bonds with Martina's young son over their mutual fears. As a new day dawns for these endearing buffoons, it looks like they might be growing up in spite of themselves. (In Spanish with subtitles) B.B.

Welcome to the (Theodor Seuss) Geisel Award home page!
The Geisel Award is given annually to the author(s) and illustrator(s) of the most distinguished American book for beginning readers published in English in the United States during the preceding year.
2013 Medal Winner
Up, Tall and High!, written and illustrated by Ethan Long is the Seuss Award winner. The book is published by G. P. Putnam's Sons, a division of Penguin Young Readers Group.
A bevy of birds perform a play in three acts, while teaching the concepts of up, tall and high. The large font, word repetition, occasional rhyming and simple, but clever illustrations support the very beginning reader's effort to read independently. Children will delight in reading additional words hidden beneath thick flaps.
"Using few words, Ethan Long has created a book that children will enjoy on multiple levels. The humorous drawings and interactive story will have children raising flaps and reading their first words with confidence and delight," said Geisel Award Committee Chair Carla D. Morris.
2013 Honor Books
Let's Go for a Drive!, written and illustrated by Mo Willems, and published by Hyperion Books for Children, an imprint of Disney Book Group
In "Let's Go for a Drive!" good friends Elephant and Piggie, sharing their high spirits through song and dance, prepare for a drive. Best plans go awry when they realize they have no car. Text clues in color-coded speech bubbles, white backgrounds and bold mixed-media illustrations add to the book's appeal for beginning readers.
Pete the Cat and His Four Groovy Buttons written by Eric Litwin, created and illustrated by James Dean and published by HarperCollins Children's Books, a division of HarperCollins Publishers
In a picture book format accessible to beginning readers, a blue mellow-eyed feline keeps losing his groovy buttons in "Pete the Cat and His Four Groovy Buttons." But does he cry? Goodness no! Bold backgrounds and rhyming refrains encourage beginning readers to look for the bright side of every situation. For after all, it's all good!
Rabbit & Robot: The Sleepover, written and illustrated by Cece Bell and published by Candlewick Press.
In "Rabbit & Robot: The Sleepover," Rabbit and Robot disagree on everything on rabbit's "To Do" list at their sleepover, including Robot's insistence of pizza toppings of nuts, bolts, and screws. Everything comes to a halt when Robot's batteries run low. Humorous cartoon-style illustrations accompany four episodes, perfect for readers transitioning to easy chapter books.
The members of the 2013 Theodor Seuss Geisel Award Committee are: Chair Carla D. Morris, Provo (Utah) City Library; Deborah P. Green, Iowa City (Iowa) Public Library, retired; Heather Hart, Newport Beach (Calif.) Public Library; Amy Kellman, children's literature consultant; Sue McCleaf Nespeca, Kid Lit Plus Consulting, Gettysburg, Pa.; Dr. Diane Nielsen, University of Kansas, Lawrence; and Cynthia Williams, Coast Episcopal School, Long Beach, Miss.

"I'm good at remembering faces, but terrible at remembering names." How often has someone said this line to you at a meeting or a party?
But how true is this common refrain? By going on a little journey into the psychology of memory, I want to show you that what our memories do with faces and with names is not as straightforward as it might seem.
It is true that humans are experts at recognising faces. Most of us could name thousands of them, and it is something we tend to do easily and automatically. To a neuroscientist, this is a clue that this is a difficult problem made to seem easy because there is a lot of machinery in the brain dedicated to the task.
And so it transpires. There is a part of the brain dedicated to recognising faces – called the Fusiform Face Area – positioned in the part of the brain called the Temporal Lobe, which can be found roughly in the area behind your ears. If you have a brain injury that damages this part of the brain, you'll know people by their clothes or their voice, but you just won't be able to recognise them from their face, even if you have perfectly normal vision. There is even a form of inherited weakness in this brain region, so that whole families can be notoriously bad at recognising faces, including each others'. This condition, known as prosopagnosia, was made famous in Oliver Sacks' book The Mind's Eye, where he revealed that he is face-blind himself.
But these people are the exception to the rule. We are generally so good at recognising faces that we tend to see faces even when there aren't any, such as in the random patterns made by clouds and rock formations on the surfaces of other planets, which is a side-effect of having a brain specialised for this function.
What's that yellow thing?
What is interesting is that we do not appear to have a corresponding brain region for remembering names. What we do have are brain regions dedicated to remembering words – and names are special examples of words. Get a brain injury in these regions and you would end up forever struggling to find the names for people and things. You might recognise a banana, know that it is a delicious yellow fruit and even have a good recipe for banana muffins, but you would be unable to conjure up the word to tell other people what the thing you are looking at is called.
It is tempting to conclude that when people say they are good with faces but not with names, it somehow means that their 'face area' is bigger or better connected than the 'name area'. But, in fact, something more interesting than a simple imbalance is going on. There is a crucial difference between the kinds of memory task we are usually asked to do with faces, compared to the task we have to do with names. Or to put it another way, we might use the same word – 'remember' – to describe our ability to place faces and names, but in fact we are describing two different psychological processes: recognition and recall.
Let us return to the party to see the two different processes in action. Imagine you are looking at the faces of the guests. You catch someone's eye and maybe you ask yourself, "Do I know this person?" This is a recognition task – a facial recognition task to be precise – and the answer is either a simple "Yes, I recognise them", or a "No, I've not seen them before".

Florida Gators Strength and Conditioning
Mission | Weight Room | Clinics & Camps | Staff | Volunteer Internships
Paul Chandler
- Baseball and Softball Strength & Conditioning Coordinator
- Fourth Season at Florida
Paul Chandler is in his fourth season as the Strength and Conditioning Coordinator for the baseball program and in his second season working with the Gator softball program at the University of Florida. His responsibilities include designing and implementing year-round strength, speed and conditioning workouts for the Gators in the Griffin/Oakley Strength and Conditioning Center. Chandler guides each student-athlete through an individual training program designed to enhance strength as well as explosive power, speed, agility, endurance, coordination, balance, flexibility and mental toughness.
In addition to working with UF's baseball program, which has made three-consecutive NCAA College World Series appearances for the first time in school history under his direction and claimed consecutive Southeastern Conference titles in 2010 and 2011, Chandler picked up strength and conditioning duties working with UF's softball squad prior to last season following the team's fourth-consecutive trip to the Women's College World Series in Oklahoma City in 2011, when UF played for the national championship for the second time in three years.
His efforts have helped the Gators total 26 Major League Draft picks during his tenure, including a school-record 11 selections in 2011 and a pair of first-round picks in 2012: Mike Zunino, third overall to the Seattle Mariners, and Brian Johnson, 31st overall to the Boston Red Sox. Zunino was Florida's first Dick Howser Trophy recipient, Golden Spikes Award winner and Johnny Bench Award winner in 2012 after being named the 2011 SEC Player of the Year, while Johnson was the Gators' first-ever John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year recipient. Five players garnered a total of 12 All-American honors last season: Johnson, right-hander Austin Maddox, left-hander Steven Rodriguez, outfielder Preston Tucker and Zunino, while second baseman Casey Turgeon was a Freshman All-American from Baseball America and Perfect Game.
Chandler previously assisted in the design, organization and execution of strength and conditioning program for the Gator football team. He was part of the staff for the 2006 squad that brought home the school's national championship and seventh SEC title and has worked with a total of eight Gators who were selected in the first round of the NFL Draft. Over the course of his career at Florida and West Virginia University, Chandler has overseen the development of 42 NFL Draft picks and 28 MLB Draft selections.
He is officially certified through the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) as a Strength and Conditioning Specialist. Chandler is a member of the Collegiate Strength and Conditioning Coaches association (CSCCa) and has passed the Strength and Conditioning Coach Certified (SCCC) certification examination.
The SCCC is the most comprehensive certification of its kind and tests the candidates' scientific knowledge, as well as their ability to apply this knowledge in a live working, practical environment. Those candidates preparing to take this certification examination must undergo an eight-to-nine month internship under the supervision of a CSCCa approved mentor. This mentor's responsibility is to guide the candidate and help him develop the skills necessary to become a successful strength and conditioning coach. In addition, Chandler has completed American Red Cross CPR training and earned his Automated External Defibrillator (AED) certification.
At Florida, Chandler manages and organizes student-athletes' data, organizes and administers weight room scheduling, purchasing and maintenance and assists in the planning of the strength and conditioning all-sports clinics and camps. He also helps with the mentoring of the strength and conditioning interns.
Prior to his return to Gainesville in January 2010, Chandler was a strength and conditioning coordinator at West Virginia for two years, working primarily with the Mountaineer football and baseball teams. Chandler went to Morgantown after a three-year stint at Florida as a strength and conditioning assistant coach for two years and as an intern for one. In that capacity, he worked with Gator football, throwers for the women's track team and oversaw the strength and conditioning program for members of UF's men's and women's swimming programs.
In addition, he served as a graduate assistant football and strength coach at Harding University between January and July 2005. During this time frame, Chandler assisted with the development of the Bison defensive line and led strength and conditioning workouts and pool workouts.
A 2003 graduate of Harding with a bachelor's degree in kinesiology, he earned a master's degree in education with emphasis on kinesiology from Harding in 2005.Chandler and his wife, Veronica, live in the Gainesville area with their son, Jack.
