The reporter simply reports the news, but it is greater to be inspired to better the situation.
The Big Bang theory marked the scientific community's first sense of the universe having a beginning.
Freeing convicted murderers returns the status of Jewish existence to something less than sanctified.
"The bigger they are the harder they fall" describes what God had in mind for Olmert.
We, soldiers of the IDF, who stand guard over the people and the land, fulfill the hopes of the millions of Jewish people across the generations who sought freedom.
How much is the human mind able to grasp of the Divine?
Jews have brought the baggage of the galut (exile) mentality to the modern state of Israel.
The Haggadah is an instruction manual on how to survive as strangers in strange lands.
It's finally happened. New York Times public editor Margaret Sullivan reported on her blog that "many readers…wrote to object to an [April 2] article…on the breakdown in peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians," claiming "[they] found the headline misleading and the article itself lacking in context." Ms. Sullivan provided one such letter, quoted the […]
Nor did it seem relevant that according to widely circulated media reports, Rev. Sharpton was caught on an FBI surveillance video discussing possible drug sales with an FBI agent.
Jewish soldiers in the Polish forces often encountered anti-Semitic prejudice.
When the state was established, gedolim went to Ben-Gurion and asked him not to draft women and, later, yeshiva bachrim.
Perhaps worse than all the above is the acute lack of unity among Jews
At our seder we emulate the way it was celebrated in Temple times, as if the Temple still stood.
One grey night it happened, Bibi caved no more
& Poof that Foggy Bottomer, he vanished from our sight
It's six K, five K, four K, Graft !
(Daylight come and da jail's his new home)
In 2012, an initiative was begun in the Knesset led by David Rotem (from the Yisrael Beitenu party), to cut the stipends and pensions paid to convicted murderers and terrorists by 50 percent.
When the Temple was in existence, Jews were religiously obligated to eat roast meat at least once a year.
I have frequently drawn up lists of what I love most about Israel, and Arik Einstein has ranked high.
In the past, the law school prohibited the singing of Hatikvah.
American non-Orthodox Jews are intermarrying their way into post-Jewish oblivion, and they're doing so as a direct result of having emptied their version of Judaism of all meaning.
The Taliban is all too willing to obliterate anything attesting to ancient Jewish life and culture.

Perhaps the museum should focus on going beyond trying to "add" marginalized voices to our history and instead question how these people became marginalized in the first place! There is a history of exclusion, racialization, misogyny and dislocation in Canada that needs to be told – not in order to disgrace Canadian leaders and/or accomplishments (as some people fear), but to set these characters, achievements and developments in their proper contexts and enrich our understanding of each other.
Marginalized communities includes Aboriginal communities if I only get to choose two groups. Aboriginal people, recent immigrants, women, economically disadvantaged… The museum needs to reach out beyond its four walls, develop exhibitions that help all Canadians to understand one another, and involve different perspectives/expertise in collections and exhibition development. The museum can present more than one perspective on an issue or subject and should sometimes.
The marginalized communities and people of Canada also need substantial recognition in this 'our museum' of the history of Canada. Women need to be represented for their role in shaping this country. The multitude of cultures that have, along side the aboriginal people of this country, suffered at the hands of a government who's agenda was to exploit the resources and people of the land, for example the building of the railway that used many people of Asian ancestry.
The stories of marginalized communities through history are too often ignored in popular representations. Although the story of the people in power is obviously important to be told, the story of how these major events involved, affected, or were perceived by marginalized communities at the time is an integral part of what's to be understood.
It's good to get the perspectives of those parts of society that otherwise do not have a voice

I don't know who this pretend einstein is, I just know who YOU pretend to be. The ONLY reason I have even acknowledged you existence is your obvious HATE for the poor and the middle class. That and youre your elitist attitude and the way you talk down to everyone is sickening. At least you are coming clean and using the WE word to describe yourself. I can't back up my claims, don't know for sure exactly who or what you are. But folks like you are as easy to read as a book, so I just made a guess based on your posts.<quoted text>
Remember, this is the same Einstein that wanted to have a bet about a certain vehicle (he could have won $1,000 by putting up only $10, if he was correct) but backed out claiming we would have the police arrest him. Or, since, we are me (according to him/her), I would have the police arrest him. For what, I have no idea, he/she probably didn't think that far ahead...
Couldn't back up his/her claims. Not surprising.
And you have not disputed one word, because I was right>

This quote is about laughter
Search on Google Books to find citations of this quotation.
We don't have a biography.
I'm male, say nothing
What rubbish this quote is! Laughter is medicine for the soul and does great things for us physiologically and emotionally. God designed us that way and to disavow laughter and joy in life does a great disservice to the God who created us.

Fishing season opens on the fourth Saturday in April and goes through October 31. Spring plants of yearling rainbow, broodstock rainbows, and brown trout should provide good action. Good largemouth bass and black crappie fisheries are available here as well. The month of October can provide some great brown trout fishing as these fish move in-shore and forage heavily in preparation for their fall spawn timing.
An annual "Kid's Fishing" derby, held the first saturday in May, introduces youth ages 5 to 14 to sport fishing. For information consult the WDFW website at http://wdfw.wa.gov/fishing/kids/events.html.

Heat pump scroll compressor range extended
The Performer PSH heat pump scroll compressor by Danfoss extended its range with six smaller capacity models, giving the compressors a heating capacity range of 19 to 80 kW.
Danfoss extended the range of its Performer PSH heat pump scroll compressor, adding six smaller capacity models to the product offering. As a result, Performer PSH heat pump scroll compressors now offer a heating capacity range of 19 to 80 kW, thanks to liquid injection technology. The compressor's 149 F saturated condensing temperature allows for safe hot sanitary water production and comfortable space heating, even with old radiator systems. Evaporating temperatures as low as -22 F mean the compressor can be applied in colder regions. Performer PSH compressors can operate year-round and need no furnace backup. Compressors in the new range require fewer system components, which reduces costs. All models achieve a compressor coefficient of performance (COP) that surpasses requirements for the Eco label (3.4), with some air to water heat pumps posting a COP of 4.11 (equivalent to 14.02 EER).

Our Pangea Advisors project started with a "field trip"… yes, even in New York City we had this amazing opportunity! We left campus on a rainy day and we traveled for a couple of hours by train, ferry and taxi cab to reach a remote corner in Staten Island. There, for the next three hours, we immersed ourselves in the reality of 15 Hispanic immigrants, who were mostly day-workers, attending an evening class in financial literacy.
Qualitas of Life, our client, offers community-based financial education workshops for Hispanic immigrants in New York City. Its mission is to give these men and women tools to improve their personal finances and provide more opportunities for their families. It is a young organization and it faces the challenge of attracting, exciting and retaining volunteers who facilitate the workshops. As a Pangea Advisors team we were asked to develop a plan to strengthen their volunteer organization.
After thoroughly understanding our client's mission and objectives, we were ready to do some investigation. We conducted interviews with staff members, board members and volunteers to better understand the challenges for the organization. We then decided to benchmark Qualitas of Life with other successful non-profit organizations and their volunteer programs. To do so, we not only did desk research, but also interviewed key people working in other non-profit organizations in New York City that had succeeded in creating an outstanding network of volunteers.
We traveled up and down Manhattan talking to executive directors and volunteer coordinators. It brought us to the most interesting places that we would have otherwise never seen — such as the 32nd floor in a typical New York City tower next to Penn Station, which, as we stepped out the elevator, turned out to be a huge warehouse with kids' clothing and toys. We were in the right place to meet the executive director of a great non-profit organization called Baby Buggy.
We spent several weeks on data collection, interviews and follow-up meetings with the client, and then we were ready to develop our final recommendations. Our Pangea Advisors team met early in the morning and spent the entire day defining the framework and guidelines for our report. In a small room in Warren Hall everything came together: all our individual insights and opinions, different views on the structure of the recommendations (not surprising with three consultants and one banker among us!) and a lot of humor. In the end, it led to six types of recommendations: raising awareness; identifying and recruiting volunteers; welcoming new volunteers; organizing and allocating tasks to volunteers; measuring and rewarding volunteers, and communicating effectively with volunteers.
We worked hard to make the recommendations very specific and tangible. For example, we made a sample spreadsheet for the allocation of tasks to volunteers and we wrote sample introduction e-mails to new volunteers. Before finalizing the recommendations, we discussed them in detail with Qualitas' two staff members, who helped us by pointing out where we could be even more specific.
In the first week of August, the entire team was invited by Qualitas' president and founder, Marcela O. de Rovzar, to present and discuss the final recommendations. They were excited about our recommendations, and we had an in-depth and fruitful discussion with Marcela and the Qualitas staff during which we got a chance to share our views on the various challenges faced by the organization.
Now, a month later, it is great to see that they have already been implementing most of our recommendations. We are still following Qualitas with a lot of interest and self-satisfaction.

The Cougars jumped out to a 2-0 lead early against the Sierra League-leading Grizzlies (5-2-3) but failed to take advantage of a number of opportunities and allowed two second-half goals before settling with a tie.
Spanish Springs coach Rob Moreland said "it was one of the games you walk away and you feel like you lost."
Moreland said the score should have been five or six to nothing going into the half.
"We had three or four one-on-ones and we didn't convert, we let them hang around and didn't put them away," Moreland said. "We are our own worst enemy right now. We have to turn the knife and put these teams away."
The Cougars outshot the Grizz 12-4.
Ricardo Camacho put the Cougars on the board first in the 18th minute after he drilled home a free kick. Jesus Gonzales added the second goal three minutes later.
Galena closed the gap to one in the 42nd minute, finishing off a free kick of its own. The Senators tied the game in the 58th minute when the Cougar defense was unable to clear the ball and sent it into the middle of the goal box for the Galena layup.
Moreland was upset with the result and his teams inability to finish off opportunities but realizes his still undefeated squad (9-0-2) has put itself in a beyond favorable playoff positioning.
"I would rather be in this position than in the other positions fighting for a spot," Moreland said.
Wednesday marked the second consecutive game the Cougars were unable to make anything happen after halftime but Moreland is not concerned. Today brought "extenuating circumstances," for the Cougars.
Most of the team was up at 2:30 a.m. for the taping of Good Morning America in the school's gym for the Katy Perry contest. The Cougars have certainly played games this year on more rest as the majority of them slept on the bus ride to Galena.
"Our guys were tired," Moreland said. "You could tell."
Spanish Springs jumps back on the pitch Saturday at Reno.
"We have to learn our lesson," Moreland said. "That is another team that you have to put away because given the opportunity they'll stick around."
The Raiders put together another stout performance Wednesday but once again were the victim of a stouter opponent.
Reed got off seven shots, to the Sierra-leading Caron Senator's eight, but were unable to find the back of the net, falling 2-0. The Raiders are now 3-6-1 and fighting for their playoff lives in fifth place.
"We've been playing really good soccer as of late as a team but we're in a league if you allow one opening, the quality of the teams in this league will take advantage and that's what's been happening as of late," Reed coach Joel Martinez said.
Carson jumped out to a 1-0 in the third minute on shot from 18 yards out into the bottom far-post corner.
"It was one of those wicked knuckle balls," Martinez said. "It was a laser."
The Senators added the final tally of the match in the 35th minute on a corner kick which the Raiders were unable to clear allowing for a tap-in goal.
Reed plays at Hug Friday and Martinez realizes his team is starting to enter must-win territory.
"We just got to win every game," Martinez said. "There are no excuses. We have to capitalize on open shots like they (opponents) have on chances. We still have six games left and from past experiences in this division, it goes down to the last game. That's how tight the standing are at the end of the season."

This game all depends on the defense. If we attack Flacco and get to him then I think we win. If we play "scared" like we sometimes do and sit back and try not to give up the big play he will pick us apart. Woodley needs to have a huge game because I don't think Harrison is capable of doing that. Timmons needs to get sent on blitzes from every direction to keep Rice in the backfield blocking.

I thought 300%ed was .30?
Hopefully I'm not OT-derailing this thread with the below questions, but the Grief damage thread-that-is-now-a-sticky-guide is locked heh, and I had a couple questions regarding the numbers posted in there.
1) The original posters' +dmg% numbers for slvl's are way lower then mine...Well, 2 of them are. He said is Zeal lvl 20 was +96% dmg. My zeal lvl 21 is showing as +342%. His Sacrifice lvl 20 was +240%. My sacrifice lvl 21 is showing as +595%. Is there something I'm missing as to why +1 slvl gives a way higher % for these 2 skills? Another skill or something in my gear besides the +1 skill Highlords I'm using? My Fanat lvl 21 shows as +390%, so that seems on par with his +373%.
My Sac+Zeal+Fanat numbers -
I did my own calculations with my stats below:
+397 Grief PB(31-35)
Strength 170
Fanat lvl21 - +390%
Zeal lvl21 - +342%
Sac lvl21 - +595%
428*(1+1.7+5.95+3.9+3.42) = 428 * 15.97 = 6835 * Fortitude(.28?) = 8748?
432*(1+1.7+5.95+3.9+3.42) = 432 * 15.97 = 6899 * Fortitude(.28?) = 8830?
Are these numbers correct? I also use high DS, so I assume most of the time I'm doing double min/max dmg(minus the Hell physical dmg penalty, whatever that is).
One last question, am I to assume +min/max dmg from charms just gets added to the 428/432 side of the equation above? I have around +35 max dmg from charms, so was wondering if its just like adding it in on the left side of the equation.
Thanks for any advice, and hopefully I'm not derailing this thread too much, didnt want a bunch of similar threads going heh.
02-12-2005, 13:00 #4Originally Posted by Voidtec
I think that's the case.
Every extra combat skill gives 6% ed (+zeal) and every offensive skill 17% (fanaticism bonus). So every extra full skill grants 23% ed. (That expl
ains why zealots don't use skillers,max dmg charms give more damage and ar).Your skill based ed at lvl 21 zeal and fana is 342%+390%=732%.
Your 595% sacrifice damage is irrelevant because it only matters when you attack with sacrifice and not zeal. Remove that amount from your calculations,add the 20% deadly strike from grief (it should always be included,it is part of the weapon itself ) and you must get a number around 6.7k AVERAGE. 15% deadly from gores ,another 15% from guil face and another 30-35% from highlords and your final damage will be a great 10.4k average per SWING. That's the physical part,you should also include the elemental and psn dmg you inflict (grief has venom).

Softball Cancer Awareness Day Huge Success Again
Contact: David Beall, email@example.com
DAHLONEGA, GA – The North Georgia softball team hosted its sixth annual Cancer Awareness Day on Tuesday, March 22, 2011, taking on Georgia College & University as a capacity crowd was on hand for a doubleheader between the in-state rivals.
The annual event at Haines & Carolyn Hill Stadium raised $975.23, which was donated to the Susan G. Komen For the Cure Foundation. The softball program would like to thank Georgia College for taking part in the event, and Campus Connection, the University Bookstore, for supporting the doubleheader.
"We are very appreciative to all of those who participated in this event," head coach Mike Davenport said. "The North Georgia Softball program wants to do our part in helping find a cure for cancer by raising awareness within our community. With the support from the Campus Connection Bookstore we will, once again, make a contribution to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Foundation."
Between games, North Georgia and Georgia College recognized cancer survivors and honored those who have passed from the deadly disease.
North Georgia continued their stretch of dominance in 2011, capturing the Peach Belt Conference regular season and tournament championships for third a straight season, and advancing to the NCAA Division II College World Series in Salem Virginia. The Saints Set a school record for wins in a season with 53, and have posted a record 154-19 over the last three years.

1001 Australians You Should Know
Pluto Press Australia, Jan 1, 2006 - Australia - 738 pages
Australia is the sum total of its people, with a story behind every person. This tells 1001 of those stories. It includes the factual, concise account of the lives of people from all walks of life, from polititians, pop stars, Nobel Laureates, thinkers, singers, sporting identities, criminals and clergy to name just a few.
What people are saying - Write a review
In the most interesting chapter, 'Crime and Law', Creswell and Trenoweth have managed to take a neglected area of Australian history and compile a wealth of crims and cops whose entries leap off the page. From the gruesome Frances Knoor (the 'Baby Farmer') to Sir Redmond Barry (the man who hanged Ned Kelly), this section is fascinating and unique.

A 20" skirt is used when the mattress is at its highest setting and the child is newborn. As the child grows and you start to lower the mattress, the 20" skirt becomes too long and the 14" skirt is used. Some choose to purchase both the 20" and 14" skirt, but others decide to purchase only the 14" skirt and deal with a little shortness in the beginning.

Please read below to learn about a survey for all community psychologists regarding the value proposition and future directions for our CP education programs, our career paths, early career opportunities, and employment possibilities. You will find the survey thought provoking, I am sure. Please encourage your colleagues to take the survey as well. This is an essential initiative that is broadly supported within SCRA and an example of how we can turn research into action promptly and effectively. Thank
In the most recent issue of The Community Psychologist, I described the need for a Community Psychology Value Proposition (see also http://www.scra27.org/blogs/presidents/creatingav for a draft). A Value Proposition is: "A business or marketing statement that summarizes why a consumer should buy a product or use a service. This statement should convince a potential consumer that one particular product or service will add more value or better solve a problem than other similar offerings."
The SCRA Practice Group, which brought the idea of a Value Proposition for CP to the forefront, has taken the lead role in creating a survey to assist in validating and modifying the proposed Value Proposition. We need the full range of SCRA members to respond to this survey if it will serve its many purposes, including delineating the terrain for community psychology practice, surveying employment settings for current and future needs for our skills and competencies, and directing our graduate programs (and undergraduate efforts) to prepare students for careers in CP. Please read on, and then take the time to respond to the linked Survey.
We have long debated whether CP practice includes academia and there are still differences of opinion about the answer. However, for the purposes of this survey, it is ESSENTIAL that ALL those who identify with CP respond, regardless of the context in which you work. The consumers that the practice group will target are potential employers of community psychologists, and potential purchasers of community psychology consultation services. These include academic settings.
To better define our Value Proposition, I am asking all community psychologists to report what you really do in your practice of community psychology, what academic training you received in each of the identified community psychology skill sets, and how proficient you rate yourself in each skill set. There is no expectation that you have been trained and are proficient in all skill sets. We just want potential employers to know generally what skill sets to expect when a community psychologist applies, and we want our education programs to know what skills they must impart to our students.
Your responses to the linked survey will help our profession become better known and understood by potential employers, help our training programs to respond to market needs, and thus help our students and community psychologists find or transition employment in difficult times. And it will help us refine and focus our Mission and Vision in ways that will allow SCRA to become a more strategic and impactful organization.
CAVEAT: We know this is an imperfect enterprise. Definitions of CP and Practice are in flux. The survey could have been done in many ways and probably everyone will have suggestions for improvement. But the Practice Group has moved us forward to this point, and we are in their debt. Sometimes we have to remember the Action in our name, and now is one of those times.
Please follow the link below and take time to respond. Please respond promptly. Summer is upon us, and we appreciate that this survey is only one of many things seeking your attention. We assure you that your participation is very important, and we promise each member of SCRA will receive a copy of the final version of the Value Proposition for use in your own marketing.
Thank you for helping advance our profession and our employability.
Survey Link: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=0LQMebK0Km2o4CoxpkcVkQ_3d_3d
With deep appreciation for your willingness to respond to this pivotal rquest,
Mo Elias
PS, I want to recognize Bill Neigher for his leadership in helping SCRA craft a value proposition, and Al Ratcliffe for dedicated work in designing the survey, elaborating on community psychology competencies, synthesizing many individuals' inputs, and in so many ways turning ideas into constructive actions regarding the future of CP.

Part 5: 11-Inch Brake Conversion
The original hydraulic, non-powered brakes have never been a strong point of the flatfender Jeep. They were mainly intended for low-speed use, so the designers of the flatfenders could never have envisioned modern roads and highway speeds. After adding the weight of springs, a spare-tire carrier, and a front winch, we quickly realized on our pre-Moab test run in Ocotillo Wells, that if the stock 9-inch brakes couldn't hold our Willys on mild inclines, it certainly wouldn't hold the Jeep on the steep fins of Hell's Revenge.
There are several different ways to upgrade brakes on a flatfender, but we decided to go with one of the easiest and most popular conversions-the 11-inch drum-brake swap. These brakes were sourced off of '62-'72 Wagoneers and '72-'75 CJs, and when compared to the stock 9x1.75, the 11x2 gives much more surface area (22 vs. 15.75 square inches), has bigger slave cylinders, are nearly a bolt-on affair, and have the added benefit of self-adjusting. They can also be used with the factory master cylinder.
After deciding to go with the 11-inchers we quickly discovered what used to be a plentiful supply of backing plates in junkyards and four-wheel-drive shops has become scarcer-even the tooling that used to make aftermarket backing plates is now gone.
We did find that one of the few sources of these parts are the guys at R&P 4WD in Oregon. They search all across the country for original backing plates to refurbish. They provide a complete kit that is essentially ready to bolt on with powdercoated backing plates and all of the hardware installed.
Mel Wade, flattie fan and owner of Off Road Evolution in Fullerton, California, lent us his shop and expertise to get our brakes swapped for this install.

Please join us for a talk by Robert D. Hormats, the Under Secretary of State for Economic Growth, Energy, and the Environment. This event is sponsored by The Center for Middle East Development, the Burkle Center for International Relations, and the Anderson School Center for Global Management.
About the Talk:
As Harry Truman said, "our relations, foreign and economic are indivisible." These words are just as true today, with difficulties in the Eurozone, revolutions bringing political change to the Middle East, and economic growth a domestic American priority. Economic growth abroad is good for the world and good for the United States. All states need robust economies to provide for their own needs. Healthy foreign economies raise living standards for their citizens and can create markets for U.S. exports. Economic growth is also crucial for sustaining political change and, as such, is an important component of national and regional stability. Growing economies can also serve to promote greater social inclusion; indeed, more and more countries are realizing that it is imperative to unlock the potential of women and girls, as their economies cannot afford to exclude 50% of the workforce. Many U.S. foreign policy goals, be they economic, political, social or developmental can be advanced by promoting economic growth abroad. And to the extent that our foreign policy aims opens doors for American firms or creates markets for American products, economic growth abroad contributes to economic renewal at home.
Robert D. "Bob" Hormats was sworn in as Under Secretary of State for Economic Growth, Energy, and the Environment (at the time, entitled Under Secretary of State for Economic, Business, and Agricultural Affairs) on September 23, 2009. Hormats was formerly Vice Chairman of Goldman Sachs (International). He served as Senior Deputy Assistant Secretary, from 1977 to 1979, and Assistant Secretary of State, from 1981 to 1982, at the Bureau of Economic and Business Affairs. He was Ambassador and Deputy U.S. Trade Representative from 1979 to 1981. He served as a senior staff member for International Economic Affairs on the United States National Security Council from 1969 to 1977, where he was senior economic adviser to Henry Kissinger, General Brent Scowcroft and Zbigniew Brzezinski. He helped to manage the Nixon administration's opening of diplomatic relations with China's communist government. He was a recipient of the French Legion of Honor in 1982 and the Arthur S. Flemming Award in 1974. Hormats has been a visiting lecturer at Princeton University and served on the Board of Visitors of the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University and the Dean's Council of the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University.

FDNY Fire Marshals have made an arrest in connection with the sixth-alarm fire on February 4th in the Far Rockaway section of Queens that left more than 200 people homeless. After a month-long investigation into the fire at 1056 Neilson Street, Fire Marshals arrested Marcello McDonald yesterday and charged him with setting the fire.
The fire started at approximately 11:45 p.m. on February 4th in a fifth-floor apartment and quickly spread throughout that floor as well as the second, third, fourth and sixth floors. This later lead to a partial collapse of the residential building. Approximately 30 people were injured as a result of the blaze, including more than 20 firefighters.
McDonald, 40, who is homeless, sometimes stayed in his girlfriend's fifth-floor apartment where the fire began. Under questioning by Fire Marshals, McDonald admitted to starting the fire. He stated that he was tired of his girlfriend's alleged prostitution and drug use and that by starting the fire it would prevent her from returning to the apartment. He allegedly told her "you are officially evicted."
After canvassing the area and conducting surveillance, Fire Marshals were able to apprehend McDonald yesterday on Nasby Street in the Far Rockaway section of Queens. When Fire Marshals first questioned McDonald, he denied who he was, stating that he went by the name " The Prophet." After a short time later, McDonald confessed and told Fire Marshals "he was tired of hiding."
McDonald is charged with burglary and arson in the second degree.

Donald William Zimmer (born January 17, 1931, in Cincinnati, Ohio) is a former infielder, manager, and coach in Major League Baseball (MLB), currently serving as a senior advisor to the Tampa Bay Rays baseball organization. Zimmer has been involved in professional baseball since 1949.
Zimmer signed with the Brooklyn Dodgers as an amateur free agent in 1949. He played in MLB with the Dodgers (1954–1959, 1963), Chicago Cubs (1960–1961), New York Mets (1962), Cincinnati Reds (1962), and Washington Senators (1963–1965). He also played for the Toei Flyers of Nippon Professional Baseball in 1966. Zimmer also saw action in the Latin American winter baseball leagues, specifically in Cuba with the Tigres de Marianao and a team in Cienfuegos, Mexico and Puerto Rico. Zimmer was nicknamed "El Galleguito" (The Gallegan) in Cuba and "El Soldadito" (The small soldier) in Mexico and Puerto Rico. During one Cuban league game on July 7, 1953, Zimmer was struck by a pitch thrown by pitcher Jim Kirk, causing Zimmer to faint. He suffered a brain injury and coagulant, which required surgery. He woke up two weeks later, thinking that it was the day after the game where the incident took place. This led to Major League Baseball adopting batting helmets as a safety measure to be used by players when at-bat. Phil Rizzuto was the first player to use the batting helmets. 1 (in Spanish)
Following his retirement as a player, Zimmer began his coaching career. He worked in minor league baseball, before coaching the Montreal Expos (1971), San Diego Padres (1972), Boston Red Sox (1974–1976, 1992) New York Yankees (1983, 1986, 1996–2003), Cubs (1984–1986), San Francisco Giants (1987), Colorado Rockies (1993–1995), and Tampa Bay Devil Rays / Rays (2004–present). He served as manager for the Padres (1972–1973), Red Sox (1976–1980), Texas Rangers (1981–1982), and Cubs (1988–1991).
Playing career
Zimmer, nicknamed "Zim" and sometimes "Popeye" because of his facial resemblance to the cartoon character,2 began his career in 1949 with the Cambridge Dodgers of the Class-D Eastern Shore League. He then played with the Hornell Dodgers of the Class-D PONY League in 1950, the Elmira Pioneers of the Single-A Eastern League in 1951, the Mobile Bears of the Double-A Southern League in 1952, and the St. Paul Saints of the Triple-A American Association in 1953 and 1954. Zimmer nearly died after being hit with a pitch in the temple while with St. Paul in 1953. He was not fully conscious for 13 days, during which holes were drilled in his skull to relieve the pressure of swelling. His vision was blurred, he could neither walk nor talk and his weight plunged from 170 to 124. He was told his career was finished at age 22.
Zimmer made it to the major leagues with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1954. Beginning in 1954, his career included 12 seasons in the big leagues. He was a utility infielder with the 1955 World Series champion Brooklyn Dodgers, and with the 1962 New York Mets, who lost a record 120 games.
Zimmer was beaned again in 1956 when a Cincinnati Reds fastball broke his cheekbone, but he persevered. Because of these beanings, it has been widely reported that he had a surgically implanted steel plate in his head.3 This rumor is false, although the holes drilled in the surgeries following the 1953 beanball were later filled with four tantalum metal corkscrew-shaped "buttons."4
In the major leagues, Zimmer remained with the Los Angeles Dodgers after their move west in 1958. In 1960, the Dodgers traded Zimmer to the Chicago Cubs for Johnny Goryl, Ron Perranoski, Lee Handley and $25,000. After the 1961 season, the expansion New York Mets chose Zimmer from the Cubs as the fifth pick in the premium phase of the 1961 Major League Baseball expansion draft, costing the Mets $125,000. In May 1962, the Mets traded Zimmer to the Cincinnati Reds for Cliff Cook and Bob Miller. He returned briefly to the Dodgers in 1963, when the Reds traded him to the Dodgers for Scott Breeden. The Washington Senators purchased Zimmer from the Dodgers in June 1963. The Senators released Zimmer after the 1965 season, and he played for the Toei Flyers of Nippon Professional Baseball in 1966.
In 12 seasons, Zimmer played 1095 games. He compiled 773 hits, 91 home runs, 352 RBI, 45 stolen bases and a .235 batting average. He played in the World Series with the Dodgers in 1955 and 1959, and was selected to the National League All-Star team in 1961. Although he had a low career batting average, Zimmer was regarded as a fine infielder, willing to fill in at third base, shortstop, and second base. He also caught 33 games in his final season with Washington in 1965.
Coaching and managing career
Minor leagues
Zimmer served as a player-manager for the Cincinnati Reds with the Class-AA Knoxville Smokies and Class-AAA Buffalo Bisons in 1967.5 Zimmer ended his playing career after the 1967 season, and he managed the Class-AAA Indianapolis Indians in 1968. In 1969, he managed the Class-A Key West Padres and the Class-AAA Salt Lake City Bees in 1970.5
Major Leagues
Montreal Expos and San Diego Padres
In 1971, he joined the Montreal Expos as third base coach.6 He took a similar job with the San Diego Padres in 1972, but after only 11 games he was called on to replace Preston Gómez as manager, giving Zimmer his first managerial job in the major leagues.7
Boston Red Sox
After being fired by the Padres at the close of the 1973 campaign, he served as the third-base coach for the Boston Red Sox for 2½ seasons. Working under skipper Darrell Johnson, Zimmer's tenure included a memorable event during Game 6 of the 1975 World Series. Boston had the bases loaded and none out in the home half of the ninth inning. The score was tied. A soft fly to left field was too shallow to score the winning run, but baserunner Denny Doyle thought Zimmer's shouts of "No! No! No!" were actually "Go! Go! Go!"8 He ran for home, and was thrown out at the plate. That play, and Dwight Evans' brilliant catch off Joe Morgan in extra innings, set up Carlton Fisk's classic, game-winning home run.
The 1976 Red Sox never got on track under Johnson, and he was fired in July. Zimmer was named acting, then permanent, manager and he led them to a winning record, but a disappointing third-place finish in the AL East.9 The Red Sox would win more than 90 games in each of Zimmer's three full seasons (1977–79) as manager, only the second time they had pulled off this feat since World War I. His 1978 team won 99 games, still the fourth-best record in franchise history.
However, he is best remembered among Red Sox fans for the team's dramatic collapse during the 1978 season. After leading the American League East by as many as fourteen games, the Red Sox stumbled in August. By early September that lead was reduced to four games.10 That lead evaporated in a four-game series against the surging New York Yankees which is still known as "the Boston Massacre."
The Red Sox spent the last month of the season trading first place with the Yankees, forcing a one-game playoff on October 2. In that game, the Yankees took the lead permanently on a legendary home run by Bucky Dent over the Fenway Park Green Monster.
During this stretch, Zimmer made several questionable personnel moves. He never got along with left-handed starting pitcher Bill "Spaceman" Lee. As a matter of fact, his outright hatred of Lee (who had nicknamed Zimmer "The Gerbil.") ran so deep that he gave the starting assignment in the last game of the "Massacre" to rookie Bobby Sprowl, who had only been called up from Triple-A Pawtucket a few days earlier. Reportedly, Carl Yastrzemski pleaded with Zimmer to start Lee, who, along with Luis Tiant, had dominated the Yankees during their careers. (Lee, for example, won 12 out of 17 decisions against the Yankees in 10 years with Boston.) Sprowl allowed four walks, one hit and one run in the first inning before being pulled and made only three more major-league starts.
Zimmer also penciled Fisk, the team's longtime starting catcher, into the lineup 154 times (out of a possible 162), a heavy workload for a catcher. Fisk complained of sore knees for much of this stretch and missed most of the next season with a sore arm. Finally, Zimmer kept third baseman Butch Hobson in the lineup, even though Hobson's elbow miseries (he had floating bone chips which he frequently rearranged before coming to the plate) made it impossible for him to hit for power or average, or throw accurately. Hobson made error after error, until finally Zimmer called on Jack Brohamer to replace him; with Brohamer at third, Boston won its last eight games of the regular season to force a tie with the Yankees, but the Red Sox lost the playoff game on home runs by Dent and Reggie Jackson.
Zimmer next managed the Texas Rangers. He spent less than two years in the job and his firing by owner Eddie Chiles was different. Zimmer was fired on a Monday but asked to remain on through Wednesday's game before being replaced by Darrell Johnson.11 When asked for the reason he fired Zimmer, Chiles said it was 'something personal' but refused to elaborate further.12
After Texas, Zimmer coached three stints with the Yankees (1983, 1986, 1996–2003), then coached for the San Francisco Giants in 1987.6 He served as third base coach for the Chicago Cubs from 1984–1986. In 1989, Zimmer managed the Cubs to a division title and was named Manager of the Year.13 Later, he returned to Boston for one season as a coach (under manager Hobson) in 1992.6 Overall, Zimmer won 906 Major League games as a manager.6
Zimmer was on the first coaching staff of the expansion Colorado Rockies in 1993, and coached the Rockies through 1995.6
New York Yankees and Tampa Bay Rays
In 1996, he joined the Yankees as their bench coach for their run of four World Series titles. In 1999, Zimmer filled in for Manager Joe Torre while Torre was recuperating from prostate cancer.14 Zimmer went 21-15 while guiding the Yankees during Torre's absence. This record however, is credited to Torre's managerial record. Many fans know him for his "brawl" with Pedro Martínez in the 2003 American League Championship Series, when Zimmer ran at Martinez and Martinez threw Zimmer to the ground.15 He was also once hit by a sharply hit foul ball batted by Yankee second baseman Chuck Knoblauch. The next game, Zimmer wore an army helmet with the word "ZIM" painted on the side and the Yankees logo stenciled on the front.
Currently, Zimmer is a senior advisor for the Tampa Bay Rays. His role includes assisting the team during spring training and during home games.14 Every year, Zimmer increments his uniform number by one to match the number of years he has worked in baseball. During the 2014 season he wears #66,16 as seen on the Rays' official site. Zimmer has often noted that every paycheck he'd ever gotten came from baseball, and has never held a job in any other profession.
Zimmer has written two books, Zim: A Baseball Life, and The Zen of Zim, that describe his life in baseball, as a player, manager, and coach.
Since the 2008 season, Zimmer has been the last former Brooklyn Dodger still serving on the field in some capacity. Zimmer also serves as a member of the advisory board of the Baseball Assistance Team, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to helping former Major League, Minor League, and Negro League players through financial and medical difficulties.
Personal life
At home plate before an Elmira night game in 1951, Zimmer married Soot (Jean), the girl he started dating in 10th grade. As of 2013[update] (62 years later), they are still married and live in Seminole, Florida.14 They have lived in the Tampa Bay area since the late 1950s.14
In December 2008, Zimmer suffered a stroke, causing loss of speech for a week.17

Comments about Louisville Slugger Small Bat Pack:
This bag is way too small to be of any use to your average ball player. The main pocket is too small to fit my son's helmet and his bats don't even fit in the bat pockets. He was able to slide his plastic wiffle ball bat in the bat pocket. He now uses the bag to carry his jacket and his lunch. Please don't buy this bag if you intend to use it as a bat bag.

Any person can discover Reiki. At one time, Reiki programs were just given to a select couple of, at a very high cost. Today, points have actually changed somewhat, although there are still teams of Reiki practitioners that bill higher fees for master training. Singing BOWLS are often used.
There are numerous different models of the past of Reiki. There are likewise various viewpoints as to effective ways by which one must learn Reiki. It is appealing that the Western version of the past of Reiki varies from that of the Eastern variation. The Western variation appears to have actually been decorated rather, but that is an individual point of view. HIMALAYAN BOWLS are good for meditation.
The charges billed for Reiki programs differ considerably, although it has actually constantly been popular to charge a fee. For example, Hawayo Takata, which brought Reiki to Hawaii from Japan in the late 1930s, asked for $10,000 for master Reiki courses. One of her pupils, Iris Ishikuro evidently thought that more folks need to be able to discover Reiki and decided to bill reduced fees for training. Other pupils of Takata continuously adhere to a fee structure similar to hers.
Various factions have developed gradually and on numerous points they disagree. All of the factions concur that the first individual to provide Reiki courses was Usui Mikao.
In the West, he is in some cases referred to as Dr. Usui, and while there is no evidence. Some just want to know What is a Singing Bowl?
Others say that he was looking for the significance of life, a satori or moment of enlightenment. Some say that he was a professor of Religious theology. Others claim that he was probably a Buddhist. Some teams that offer Reiki programs integrate spiritual suggestions, from numerous religions, into their educationals. Yet, there is something that we can state for a surety; Reiki is not a religious beliefs.
