Moore: Diamondbacks first lady Amy Hall shares story of how she beat breast cancer Wife of the club's president and CEO shares story grit and perseverance as she discusses how she has beaten an aggressive form of breast cancer. Check out this story on azcentral.com: http://azc.cc/2hidtTl

Amy Hall, wife of Arizona Diamondbacks CEO Derrick Hall, is in remission from an aggressive form of breast cancer after an 18-month battle.(Photo: Hall family)
We can learn just as much about grit and perseverance from an everyday woman as we can from the toughest ballplayer.
Take for example Amy Hall, who was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer 18 months ago and has endured chemo, hair loss, radiation, surgery, blood transfusions and a creeping doubt that she didn't dare speak out loud: She thought she was going to die.
"That's exactly how I felt," Hall said.
This month, right around the same time the Diamondbacks were popping champagne to celebrate their National League wild-card game victory, Hall, whose husband is the club's president and CEO, finished her treatment protocol. She's in remission, and to bookend this Breast Cancer Awareness Month, she's sharing the story of how she's gotten to this point.
"You're fighting," she said. "Keep your head down. Pray a lot. Enjoy every little moment, even when you don't feel good, because you don't know …"
Amy Hall said she would have random encounters that she became convinced were divine. "I would tell my kids, 'This wasn't just a coincidence,'" she said. (Photo: Hall family)
Hall tends to be private. Her husband, Derrick, is the public figure, but "having been through it," he said, "we feel like it's our responsibility to help as many people as we can and drive awareness."
Count the eight women you're closest to, physically or emotionally. Chances are one of them will develop breast cancer in their lives. When it happens, they're not going to need football players in pink cleats. They're going to need information.
Amy Hall talks about specifics, using words like "triple-negative" and "needle biopsy" and "bilateral mastectomy." She and her husband are experts in a subject no one wants to know about.
She also talks about blood.
The type of cancer she had, Derrick Hall said, "ended up being one of the worst diagnoses … it requires very aggressive treatment."
It's so destructive that it kills the patient along with the cancer. The goal, of course, is to take out the disease first. But there are no guarantees.
As she's gotten better, Amy Hall said she has a new appreciation for mundane things, like driving her daughter to school and making her son's bed in his dorm room — she wasn't able to help move him in as a freshman. (Photo: Hall family)
One risk involves white and red blood cells, if a patient's counts drop too low, it can be fatal. Amy Hall hit this point three times.
"That's how you know the chemo's working, it's attacking your healthy cells, and so sometimes you get to that danger zone, and they have to give you a transfusion," she said. "I had three.
"Three people saved my life, just by giving their blood to me. I get teary thinking about that. I am so thankful to all the people who donate blood. You don't realize how many people that are dealing with cancer who depend on that."
The Halls said they relied heavily on faith.
"Regardless of affiliation or denomination," Derrick Hall said, "you feel closer to God and others, and what we both heard from everyone was that they're praying for you. And you hear it, and when you say that or hear it before you're diagnosed, it doesn't have the same meaning.
"You really feel the prayer."
He would know, having survived prostate cancer himself six years ago.
Amy Hall said she would have random encounters that she became convinced were divine.
"I would tell my kids, 'This wasn't just a coincidence,'" she said.
"I had a woman say, 'I have triple-negative breast cancer, too.' It was just a stranger, and it came right at a time where I was feeling nervous, my blood-cell count was low, I was scared. And I feel like every time I had those little blips in the road, something would happen, and I would say, 'It's all those prayers.'"
One random act grabbed headlines. Diamondbacks left-hander Robbie Ray held up a sign for Amy Hall at the All-Star Game. The Halls had no idea it was coming and said they were moved to tears by the gesture when they saw it on TV along with the rest of the nation.
"Completely broke down," Derrick Hall said. "Started bawling."
As she's gotten better, Amy Hall said she has a new appreciation for mundane things, like driving her daughter to school and making her son's bed in his dorm room — she wasn't able to help move him in as a freshman.
"That was awesome," she said. "it's the little day-to-day things that you don't think mean anything in your life, but those are the things that mean the most."
There's another element, "Mama Strong." It was coined by her daughter and printed onto pink wristbands.
It captured the final secret to Amy Hall's resilience.
"I can't believe you never complain," her husband would say.
She always replied the same way: "Not an option."

Release snippet
From my new book, soon to be coming to an ereader near you, Release:
Miss Gilit strapped her seat belts over her body. "This isn't going to work, you know."
Keirth strapped himself in. He palmed the light speed accelerator and squeezed. "Oh no? Why not?"
"You'll get caught," she said.
The ship lurched hard and on the visual, the stars streamed out like bright ribbons, going green, red, and blue at the edges. They were pushed back into their seats and for a few seconds, they couldn't breathe from the pressure. Then everything snapped, like rubber, and they were traveling through a tunnel of brightly colored lights—hyperspace. Keirth switched off the visual. Hyperspace always gave him a headache if he stared at it too long.
"You're in a stolen space ship," continued Miss Gilit. "The minute they figure out I'm gone, they'll track it. It's fitted with a tracking monitor, you know, and—"
"Is it?" said Keirth. "Thanks for telling me that, sweetheart. They keep it in the usual place?"
Her face had gone white as she realized her mistake.
Keirth unstrapped himself and headed for the back of the bridge. He reached above the doorway and yanked the material covering the wall away. Inside, just where they always were, was a hunk of plastic, wires, and blinking lights. Tracking monitor. Keirth ripped it down, dropped it on the floor, and ground it under his foot. It made a crunching noise.
"It doesn't matter!" said Miss Gilit. "They'll find you anyway. You've kidnapped the daughter of a duke, and you killed a man in the docking bay. You're a kidnapper and murderer. They're going to find you, and they're going to sentence you to death."
"I had my blaster set to stun," he muttered. "Besides, I'm saw the other servants drag him out of the docking bay. I'm sure he's fine. The only person I want to kill is Risciter." Miss Gilit was starting to get on his nerves. Maybe he should tie her up and gag her. That should keep her quiet.
"And why would you want to do that?" said Miss Gilit. "The Duke of Risciter is a good man."
Keirth sat back down in the pilot's seat next to her. "He's the furthest thing from a good man there is, sweetheart."

FBD Insurance Rás leader Chris Newton made history today when he became the first overseas rider ever to win two editions of the race. The GB-Recycling.co.uk rider finished safely in the main bunch on the final stage, a one hour circuit race in the Phoenix Park, thus preserving his 14 second advantage over former Tour of Spain points jersey winner Malcolm Elliott.
Newton was delighted to add to his 2003 Rás title. "I came into the race thinking my form was good, but not great," he said. "Taking three stage wins plus the overall is special. It's great to win this event again, the Rás is a super race."

In November 2009, Republicans were on suicide watch, both nationally and in Michigan.
President Barack Obama had won the '08 election with an almost 10 million-vote margin and still enjoyed a healthy approval rating a year later. Democrats controlled both houses of Congress, including a 60-vote, filibuster-proof majority in the U.S. Senate. And the Dems had won several special congressional elections.
In Michigan, Democratic Gov. Jennifer Granholm had the help of a huge majority in the House (67-43) and the Dems had an 8-7 congressional advantage. The one bright spot for the GOP was the Senate, which they'd controlled for 25 years. With the ascension of Sen. Mark Schauer (D-Battle Creek) to Congress, the GOP had a 21-16 edge.
The special Nov. 3, 2009, election to fill Schauer's slot wasn't a terribly exciting affair, but it was a huge morale boost for once-dejected Republicans (yes, there was singing on the Senate floor the next day).
Former Rep. Mike Nofs (R-Battle Creek) decisively beating Rep. Marty Griffin (D-Jackson) became a bellwether for the 2010 election cycle. Not only did Griffin go on to lose his House seat, but the GOP ran the table, winning the governorship, a 9-5 advantage in Congress, a 63-47 majority in the House and a 26-12 supermajority in the Senate.
Republicans also flipped the U.S. House and came close in the upper chamber, effectively stalling Obama's agenda. And the GOP scored big in other key states like Wisconsin, Ohio, Florida, Pennsylvania and Virginia, which proved invaluable during the decennial redistricting process.
Eight years later, President Donald Trump has a GOP Congress and Republicans still control everything in Michigan. Now Democrats are hoping for history to repeat itself in 2018 with the president's party getting pounded in the midterms. Having a Democratic governor going into the next redistricting is the ultimate prize in Michigan.
But Republicans see another scenario. And it starts with another special legislative election this November, one that's largely been overlooked in the Upper Peninsula.
Many Republicans believe '16 was a sea change in our state, with Trump's stunning victory finally pushing us to red (or at least reddish-purple) status. Michigan is getting older and is less educated than most states. We don't have a significant, growing Latino population. All these demographic trends bode well for the GOP.
Republicans also have favorably gerrymandered legislative maps to fall back on. And they've also made big gains in key areas like the U.P., the northern lower peninsula and Macomb County, which should help them mitigate or even withstand even a powerful blue wave tearing through the legislative map.
And Republicans are making noise about coming for three-term incumbent U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Lansing), openly praying that hometown sensation Kid Rock is serious about running and not just trying to sell concert tickets and merch.
Michigan has a special place in Trump's heart, as it's one of the three Rust Belt states that flipped to put him in the White House. And Republican National Committee Chair Ronna Romney McDaniel, a Michigan native, can also be expected to spread the love in terms of money and surrogates.
So the GOP is somewhat optimistic that they'll be insulated from the historic precedent of the president's party taking a hit in off-year elections.
But to get things off on the right foot, they'd love to steal what looks like a safe Democratic seat. The 109th in the central U.P., which includes Marquette, Ishpeming and Manistique, has a 56.9% Democratic base, according to Inside Michigan Politics.
The seat is open because Rep. John Kivela (D-Marquette) tragically killed himself after being stopped for drunken driving. This week, Sara Cambensy, a former Marquette city commissioner, won the Dem special primary. She'll face Republican Rich Rossway, president of the Marquette school board, in the Nov. 7 special general election.
GOP strategists are excited about Rossway, a 17-year veteran of the board with strong ties to the community. Interestingly, he's adopting the tactic used by many a Democrat in red-trending or socially conservative areas (like Griffin did) and isn't stressing his party label. Instead, Rossway has been playing up his bipartisan credentials and making the case that he'll put the U.P.'s needs before partisan concerns.
Republicans also see an opening because the Cambensy barely pulled off a win on Aug. 8. Last year, she also primaried Kivela, who was a beloved figure, which left some Dems with a bad taste in their mouths.
If Rossway scores a Trump-like upset, that gives the GOP another vote in the state House. As the Dems are expected to maintain the 1st District seat in Detroit and Harper Woods on Nov. 7, that would bring the GOP to a bone-crushing 64-46 advantage.
But flipping the 109th is bigger than that. It's about changing the narrative about 2018 in Michigan and demoralizing Democrats, who have seen an influx of new energy from both the Indivisible and Bernie Sanders "Our Revolution" groups.
Republican operatives, no doubt, are already auditioning clever soundbites about how the Dems should just pack it in for good in Michigan.
It's a longshot for sure. But for Republicans, it doesn't hurt to dream.

Just like any other website, Facebook Business Pages can really get a boost in traffic by optimizing the page for search engines. It doesn't take a lot of time to do, and the impact could result in greater reach, more "likes", and new customers. So here are some tips to help you get your page optimized.
The page's "Name" will become the Title and H1 tags; key influencers in terms of on-page SEO. For your page's name, try to keep it brand focused, rather than over-loaded with generic, industry-related keywords. A long, generic page name could look like spam to many, and could deter users from tagging the page.
The "About" section is added to the page's name to create the Meta Description, and is a prime location to utilize keywords for SEO purposes. This section also gets featured right underneath the profile pic, so it's a great place to let the world know what your business is all about.
2) Add an address, phone number, and other basic information. Information such as your business' location, phone number, and hours of operation are all important factors for local search. Search engines tend to favor web pages with this information over those without.
Other information fields including "Category" and the "Sub-Category" tags are important for product and industry related searches. There are spaces, like "General Information", that offer further space for utilizing keywords in content.
3) Get a custom URL. Facebook pages have the option of changing out the long, numbered page URL (Ex: facebook.com/pages/pagename/208432489193092) that comes as a default, with a nice, custom URL (Ex: facebook.com/whateveryouwant). This custom url can serve many purposes. For one, it's infinitely easier to remember, making it simpler for customers to find your page. The custom URL also provides a space to utilize keywords in addition to branding, and keywords contained in URLs are another great SEO opportunity. Keep in mind though, overdoing keywords in a URL can appear spammy, and a longer url is harder remember.
4) Backlink to your Facebook page. Facebook pages can be a great tool to backlink to your website. But it works the other way as well. Backlinks to your Facebook page from your website, Twitter, Google+, and other social profiles, as well as other Facebook pages will build authority for your page, and ultimately, help improve it's ranking in search engines.
5) Don't forget about your content! None of these other points will matter if your page isn't active with engaging content. Regular updates will not only help the page in search performance, but will also help potentially seal the deal for incoming Facebookers. If a user comes across a page that's a ghost town, with the last update being posted weeks, or months ago, they're most likely going to leave. Keep the page fresh with interesting content that your followers will interact with, and you'll boost search engine rankings, but more importantly: build loyal customers.


You have probably heard that when possible, you should try eating organic produce. Not only do they taste better, but they are typically more nutrient dense and free of nasty pesticides that not only harm our bodies, but the earth environment as well.
However, eating a diet full of organic produce can be quite expensive and not feasible for us all. Luckily, the Environmental Working Group (a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting public health and the environment) issued a shopper's guide to help with this concern.
The Dirty Dozen and Clean Fifteen outlines which fruits and vegetables are the most and least likely to be contaminated with pesticides.
Remember, fruits and vegetables are an important part of a whole foods diet. They are rich in nutrients and minerals, containing many important vitamins and antioxidants which help support our mood and overall emotional well-being. When possible, it's best not to boil the vegetables as this will extract many of these nutrients.

Newly freed, rancher Cliven Bundy gets a hero's welcome in Montana
Originally published January 23, 2018 at 2:39 pm Updated January 23, 2018 at 2:41 pm

Land ahoy! Seafair Pirates make a splash on Alki.
Low tide treasures on Beach Drive Southwest
"Go and read your Constitution," said the activist, telling the crowd Saturday to reject federal control of millions of acres of American landscapes.
JULIE TURKEWITZ
PARADISE, Mont. — Cliven Bundy was fresh out of jail, and so the nation's most controversial rancher strode into the town of Paradise and called on hundreds of supporters — a sea of cattlemen, timber workers and star-struck children — to follow in his footsteps.
"Go and read your Constitution," he said, telling the crowd Saturday to reject federal control of millions of acres of American landscapes. Washington, he declared, has no business "telling you how to graze your cattle, cut your timber, mine your mines."
In 2014, when his fight over cattle grazing led to an armed standoff with federal agents, Bundy became a symbol of defiance for rural Westerners angry over the government's management of public lands.
By the time he walked free this month, that issue had become a national flashpoint. The Trump administration has moved to open more lands to mining, drilling and logging, to the cheers of land-rights activists and commercial interests and the dismay of environmentalists.
Bundy's case has also become a study in government wrongdoing. After declaring a mistrial, Judge Gloria M. Navarro of U.S. District Court in Las Vegas said prosecutors had willfully withheld a trove of potentially exculpatory information from Bundy's legal team, committing "flagrant prosecutorial misconduct." The Justice Department opened an investigation into its attorneys' actions, and Bundy, his sons Ammon and Ryan, and a supporter named Ryan C. Payne were released. Navarro dismissed the charges against them "with prejudice," meaning they cannot be retried.
Now, the Bundys' freedom is playing out on parallel tracks in the West. On one track is Bundy, 71, who went on a victory trip this weekend, driving some 15 hours from his ranch in Bunkerville, Nevada, to give a speech at the request of a group called the Coalition of Western Property Owners.
Paradise is a slip of a town between snow-dusted mountains north of Missoula. It is a place where people have long said that restrictive federal land policies are strangling their livelihoods. On Saturday, at least 300 people crowded the town schoolhouse, declaring that the judge's blistering critique was proof of what they had said for years: The federal government is corrupt and out to destroy rural people like Bundy.
"He's my idol," said Chaleen Hill, 38, who runs an operation that rescues unwanted horses, and said that her family gave up its ranch after conflicts with the U.S. Forest Service made running it too difficult. She stood by Bundy and vowed to "stand up beside him with a gun on my horse" if the government returned to take his cows.
"Clive," she said, pressing a pocket Constitution into his hands, "do you have a second to sign this for me?"
The Bundy legacy
On another track are environmentalists, government workers and many others who worry that Bundy's freedom will embolden people who oppose a federal land policy — the designation of a new national monument, for example, or a ban on mining by a national park — to mount an armed protest.
"The legacy of this is going to persist," said Mark Fiege, a professor of Western history at Montana State University, who said that much of his anger fell on the federal prosecutors who appear to have bungled the case.
"It seemed cut and dry to many of us," he said. "How did they blow it?"
The Bundy family has lived in southern Nevada for generations, grazing cattle on a portion of the hundreds of millions of acres throughout the West that are owned by the federal government.
In 1993, Bundy declined to renew his grazing permit, saying that he did not recognize Washington's claim to those acres. By 2014, when the authorities began to confiscate his livestock over more than $1 million in unpaid grazing fees, hundreds of armed supporters rallied to his side. The federal agents, outnumbered, released the cattle and went home.
A bungled legal case
The standoff called into question the government's ability to enforce the law on public land, a question that only deepened when Bundy's sons Ammon and Ryan began an armed occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon two years later.
The brothers and five others involved in the standoff were acquitted in October 2016 of all federal charges after contending that they were merely protesting the government's actions and had posed no threat. After that, the Nevada trial of the elder Bundy appeared to be the government's last chance to show that disobeying the law on public land would not be tolerated.
Cliven, Ammon and Ryan Bundy and Payne were charged with assault, obstruction of justice, extortion, conspiracy to impede federal officers from doing their jobs and other charges that could have landed them in prison for years.
But weeks into the trial, Navarro said government lawyers had withheld at least six pieces of information that could have assisted the defense, including evidence of federal snipers near the Bundy home and reports that indicated that "the likelihood of violence from Cliven Bundy is minimal."
Under a 1963 Supreme Court decision, prosecutors are required to hand over all material that could be helpful to defendants. Taken together, the withheld evidence seemed to boost the Bundys' claim that they had gathered a crowd not to assault federal agents, but to protest treatment by officers who had set up a military-style operation by their ranch.
Compounding the lawyers' failure was the release of a whistleblower report by a federal employee named Larry C. Wooten, who alleged that the federal Bureau of Land Management had conducted "the most intrusive, oppressive, large scale, and militaristic trespass cattle impound possible," at the ranch, and that the government's lead prosecutor, Steven W. Myhre, appeared to be overlooking evidence of this "in order to win."
In a legal memo, Myhre wrote that his team's failure to disclose materials had occasionally been due to "simple inadvertence," but in most instances took place because prosecutors believed the evidence was not relevant to the defendants' case.
"The government did not withhold material to gain a tactical advantage," he wrote. "Rather, it litigated these issues in good faith."
Steve Ellis, who was deputy director of the Bureau of Land Management during the standoff, said in an interview that he "knew that there were a few issues we had" but he acknowledged that some of the misconduct that was alleged "was just stunning."
Still, Ellis said that he was concerned that Bundy's freedom would set a dangerous precedent.
"What does this say?" he said. "If you don't like a decision by the Interior Department, you put together an armed gang to get your way?"
But in Paradise this weekend, the mood was one of celebration.
For hours, the Bundys and their allies took turns on a stage fringed by cranberry-colored curtains and manned by armed guards, telling tales of real and perceived government infractions.
The Bundy cattle continue to graze on federal land, and in an interview, Ryan Bundy said he had "no plans" for future confrontations with the federal government, but he would do "whatever it takes" to protect his family's freedom.
"I am not a subject, I am not a slave, and I am not a serf, and I will not be treated as such," he said.
A few protesters had braved their way into enemy territory on Saturday, and one held a sign: "Bundy = White Privilege."
They were well outnumbered by Bundy supporters like Elijah Corrigan, 38, who said he had ridden his horse from his ranch "up on the mountaintop." Wearing a flat-top cowboy hat and kerchief, he said he had followed the Bundys' case for years. Their release "means we can stand victorious over the federal government," he said.
Corrigan said he hoped future disagreements with Washington could be solved without armed conflicts, by working with lawmakers.
"But if it doesn't take, if they don't listen, if we feel they're not paying attention to us, then it's kind of like it was in the prison I used to work in — you meet their level of force and you take it a step further," he said. "If the government is not going to listen to our words, then they will listen to our actions."

LED, English name Light Emitting Diode, LED, is a solid-state semiconductor device that can directly convert electrical energy into light energy.
The core of the LED is a semiconductor wafer. The wafer consists of two parts, a part of which is a P-type semiconductor. Inside it, holes are dominant, and at the other end, it is an N-type semiconductor. Here, it is mainly electrons.
When these two types of semiconductors are connected, a "P-N junction" is formed between them. When current flows through the wire to the wafer, the electrons are pushed to the P area. In the P area, the electrons recombine with the holes, and then they emit energy in the form of photons. This is the principle of the LED light.

Autopsy: Texas man died of neck injuries in animal attack
Unclear if man was killed by a mountain lion or other wild animal
Published: January 27, 2021, 7:01 AM Updated: January 27, 2021, 7:14 AM
LIPAN, Texas – A final autopsy for a Texas man whose body was found last month in the woods determined that he died from neck injuries due to an animal attack, but wildlife experts and sheriff's officials disagree on whether that animal was a mountain lion.
The Tarrant County Medical Examiner's Office ruled that 28-year-old Christopher Allen Whiteley's cause of death last month was from neck injuries due to an animal attack, the Hood County sheriff's office said Tuesday. The manner of death was ruled an accident.
The sheriff's office said there's still a disagreement with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department on whether Whiteley was killed by a mountain lion.
The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department on Tuesday said that none of the evidence they've reviewed indicates an attack by a mountain lion or other wild animal. The department said wildlife officials couldn't rule out that an animal killed Whiteley, but said the evidence indicates it wasn't a wild animal, like a mountain lion or coyote.
Lt. Johnny Rose of the Hood County sheriff's office said they believe Whiteley was killed by a mountain lion. He said the autopsy does not specify what kind of animal killed Whitely.
The sheriff's office, which says there were no signs of foul play in the death, said it would be closing the case as an animal attack.
Whiteley's body was found in the woods near Lipan, located 50 miles (80 kilometers) southwest of Fort Worth.
Texas wildlife officials have said that fatal mountain attacks on people are extremely rare, as are any confirmed sightings of the animals in North Texas. Last month though, wildlife officials said a deer hunter killed a mountain lion in Hunt County, located east of Dallas.

Male dominance rarely skews the frequency distribution of Y chromosome haplotypes in human populations
J. Stephen Lansing, Joseph C. Watkins, Brian Hallmark, Murray P. Cox, Tatiana M. Karafet, Herawati Sudoyo, Michael F. Hammer
Arizona Research Labs
A central tenet of evolutionary social science holds that behaviors, such as those associated with social dominance, produce fitness effects that are subject to cultural selection. However, evidence for such selection is inconclusive because it is based on short-term statistical associations between behavior and fertility. Here, we show that the evolutionary effects of dominance at the population level can be detected using noncoding regions of DNA. Highly variable polymorphisms on the nonrecombining portion of the Y chromosome can be used to trace lines of descent from a common male ancestor. Thus, it is possible to test for the persistence of differential fertility among patrilines. We examine haplotype distributions defined by 12 short tandem repeats in a sample of 1269 men from 41 Indonesian communities and test for departures from neutral mutation-drift equilibrium based on the Ewens sampling formula. Our tests reject the neutral model in only 5 communities. Analysis and simulations show that we have sufficient power to detect such departures under varying demographic conditions, including founder effects, bottlenecks, and migration, and at varying levels of social dominance. We conclude that patrilines seldom are dominant for more than a few generations, and thus traits or behaviors that are strictly paternally inherited are unlikely to be under strong cultural selection.

BOXING: De La Hoya-Trinidad welterweight bout is tonight
— Sep 18th, 1999
LAS VEGAS (AP)- Oscar De La Hoya and Felix Trinidad were 8 years old when Sugar Ray Leonard stopped Thomas Hearns in the 14th round of a welterweight title showdown Sept. 16, 1981.
Tonight, De La Hoya and Trinidad, unbeaten welterweight champions, meet in what promoters and fans hope will be a '90s version of that classic from the closed-circuit television age.
The pay-per-view fight before a sellout crowd of 12,000 at Mandalay Bay figures to be explosive. De La Hoya and Trinidad have combined for 55 knockouts in 66 fights, but De La Hoya has been down three times and Trinidad has been down six times. This time, one of them might not get up.
The bout is similar to Leonard-Hearns in terms of anticipation, hype, sales and purses as well as personalities and world-class boxing talent.
De La Hoya has the star quality of a Leonard, whose glow radiates beyond boxing. Trinidad is like Hearns in that he is seemingly irked by De La Hoya's popularity and angered because he feels he has not been given his due - at least not outside his native Puerto Rico.
De La Hoya, born and raised in East Los Angeles, is a media darling who conducts interviews in English and Spanish. Trinidad speaks only Spanish, a distinct disadvantage in dealing with the English-speaking media.
Something always seems to get lost in translation, but not always.
"I know he will have the majority of fans with him that night, but it doesn't matter because we will be alone in the ring and I will show him who I am," Trinidad said.
"If I box well and win a decision, I'll make myself happy," De La Hoya said. "When I fight, I'm always in a no-win situation. If I get a one-round knockout it's because he had a weight problem and no chin. If I win a 12-round decision, people will say I wouldn't stand in front of him, that I was afraid of him."
Like Leonard, De La Hoya heightened his appeal through endorsements and TV talk shows. He's even taking singing lessons and has signed a deal with EMI Latin Records.
The WBC champion admits he was not focused for some fights despite a 31-0 record, with 25 knockouts.
Trinidad (35-0, 30 KOs) has something to prove. At least he feels he has something to prove - and that's sufficient motivation.
"My opponents, they rise to the occasion," De La Hoya said. "They lift themselves to the sky, to the moon."

So many times when I find great items I want to share them. So once a week I will be sharing a few of my favorite things with you.
The other day I was looking for a large calendar to hang on my wall. I stumbled upon an artist on Etsy whose work is wonderful.
I've order a couple of things from her so far, and I'm thrilled with her printable art. You order, pay, and get an email with the downloads. How great is that?!
This is a screenshot of her Etsy page. Click it to go to her shop.
I bought the Floral Printable Calendar for 2016 (the first one listed above). I printed it out on 13x19 photo paper on my large printer. It would be great on 8.5x11 too.
Pop over to her Facebook page, Two Brushes Designs, as well. She has a FREE PRINTABLE 2016 calendar. I have printed the pages out, put them on a clipboard and hung it on the wall. LOVE IT!
Pop over and check it out...Then head to her Etsy shop....Christmas is coming and her work would make great gifts!


Should Christians be partaking in Magic Mushrooms? I mean inst it considered pharmika or sorcery? Find out the answers to these questions and more in this episode of The Mythicist Podcast where TruthSeekah speaks to Christ Rushing the Pastor of The Oklevueha Native American Church of Inner Light in Warrior Alabama.
The church has a religious exemption to use marijuana, psylocibin mushrooms and peyote cactus, which have properties that augment traditional Native American spiritual beliefs and experiences, Rushing said. He calls their use in religious ceremonies a sacrament.

Death Invades the Meeting is a 1944 detective novel by John Rhode, the pen name of the British writer Cecil Street. It is the thirty ninth in his long-running series of novels featuring Lancelot Priestley, a Golden Age armchair detective. Reviewing the novel for the Times Literary Supplement Maurice Willson Disher noted "His ingenuity is becoming as delicate to handle as high explosive.  His stories may become so difficult to review without saying too much that his triumph will come when they cannot, for discretion's sake, be reviewed at all."

Synopsis
The story takes place during the Second World War in the village of Heringworth, where John Garstairs calls a meeting of the Invasion Committee - designed to take measures to prevent a German invasion. However, when one of the members dies during the meeting, it draws the interest of Priestley who deduces that a murder has been committed.

Meghan Cox Gurdon is very enthusiastic about the Omnium Gatherum in The Wall Street Journal today. A fine start to the Memorial Day Weekend for C. Whistler.
If you were to distill the several essences of Adirondack forests, invigorating lake waters, family traditions and a zest for life, and then capture them in the form of a book, you probably could not come closer than "Charlie Whistler's Omnium Gatherum" (Harper, 258 pages, $29.99). With its rough green cover and mottled pages, this old-fashioned gallimaufry of letters, maps, newspaper clippings, postcards and vintage photographs purports to be drawn from the archives of the fictional Whistler family. In fact, it is the elegant contrivance of writer Philip Delves Broughton, an Englishman who makes his home in the United States and who, in these pages, reveals a deep love of this country and its adventuresome spirit.
In that same cabin, many decades later, our modern Charlie has pulled together this fascinating collection, in which we find a 1923 chronicle of a trip through the Khyber Pass in a jalopy, the travelers' "stomachs churning and our brains clattering around in our skulls like dried peas in a can"; a list of the American presidents with the names and types of their pets; the poetry of Aeschylus and William Carlos Williams; accounts of shark attacks, deer hunts and bobsledding; and a lovely letter of consolation after the death of a beloved dog.
Vigorous, eclectic and beautifully designed, this book for young readers is also rather daring. These Adirondacks have no cell towers in them. There's no family dysfunction, and the only nod to technology's despotism is the urging of Charlie's father that he "live a big life" and not one "shrunk to the size of a screen." Hurrah for that!
Out today. Buy it for yourself, your friends, your children and your friends' children. And tell the world you love it.


Last week, Harbor Docks Charities hosted the 32nd Annual Caddyshack Classic Golf Tournament, the Harbor Docks Charity Auction and the 4th Annual Harbor Docks Summer Open King Mackerel Tournament. These events raised a total of $51,151 to go towards the 23rd Annual Take-a-Kid Fishing Day and Destin Harvest projects.
The 32nd Annual Caddyshack Classic Golf Tournament took place August 24 at Emerald Bay Golf Course. Sixteen teams competed in the four-man scramble, raising a total of $9,031 for Harbor Docks Charities.
Harbor Docks Charity Auction, a silent and live auction, was held on Saturday, August 26, at Harbor Docks. Over $41,000 was raised, all of which will go to Take-a-Kid Fishing Day and Destin Harvest projects.
Harbor Docks Charities would like to thank their sponsors who made these events possible, auction item donors, and everyone who participated in these events. Because of these generous people, Harbor Docks will treat over 350 underprivileged children to a day of fishing on local charter boats Nov. 5.
Children and their chaperones will be treated to breakfast, a day of fishing in the Gulf of Mexico and a fish fry. Each child will take home a rod and reel and a t-shirt. This would not be possible without the efforts and generosity of volunteers, boat captains, crews and everyone that has participated in fundraising events.

Notes: "The Long-awaited report by David Kay, the former United Nations weapons inspector who has been leading the American search for illicit weapons, will be the first public assessment of progress in that search since President Bush declared an end to major combat on May 1," according to a September 24 report in the New York Times by Douglas Jehl and Judith Miller.
The report is due out during October, and early drafts of it show that no WMDs have been found, though it may have documents showing that there had been WMD programs. The report is cast as an interim report with the search to continue. Hans Blix, the head of the former U.N. team searching for WMDs in Iraq has said that he now believes that Saddam Hussein destroyed those weapons long ago. The theory is that Saddam did not disclose this so as to keep potential attackers at bay by letting them think Iraq had WMDs.

The SNP have echoed the findings of a damning UN report that criticises the UK government for its policies that have disproportionately affected disabled people and called on the UK government to end its "ideological assault" on disabled people in the UK.
The UN report was commissioned after a call by campaigners who issued a formal complaint to the international body about potential violations of disabled people's rights by the UK government.
The findings in the report claim that measures implemented by the UK government since 2010, including the bedroom tax and cuts to disability benefits, have disproportionately affected disabled people.
The UN report also condemned the government for bulldozing ahead with the changes to social security knowing they would have an adverse impact on disabled people and calls on the UK government to carry out a study of the impact of all spending cuts on those with disabilities.
Corri Wilson, the SNP's spokesperson for Disabilities, said: "This UN report sheds light on the UK government's shameful ideological assault on those with disabilities across the UK and the Chancellor must use the Autumn Statement to take action and abandon the Tory party's obsession with austerity.
"The report shows at length how it is the disabled and the sick who are disproportionately affected by the slashing of social security support.
"I would urge the government to undertake the recommendations of the report and conduct a wide-ranging study on the impact that spending cuts have had on disabled people.
"Theresa May seems to have abandoned her pledge on the steps of Downing Street of being on the side of the vulnerable.

In April 2012 an archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Channel 4's 'Time Team' at Dropshort Roman Villa, Drayton, Oxfordshire (centred on NGR 449420 193890), to reinvestigate and re-evaluate the Roman villa that had been the subject of archaeological investigations in 1962 and 1966. The aim of the evaluation was to ascertain the extent and condition of surviving archaeological deposits on the villa site, along with their chronological and spatial relationships, and to gain an understanding of the function or functions of the Roman structures.
The evaluation revealed the remnants of a Romano-British building complex, which had been revealed within previous excavations. Four rooms were uncovered, although their functions were not clear. The smallest of the rooms may have included a hypocaust, as this is suggested on the 1966 plan of the site. What could be suggested from the incomplete plan is that it was possibly a villa of winged corridor type. The building complex appeared to be surrounded by two enclosures: an inner single-ditched enclosure and a much larger, double-ditched enclosure. Nothing was found to support the circumstantial evidence (site of spring, proximity to hoard site) that the Site may have been of ritual or cult significance during the Romano-British period.
Although no associated features were found with it, a significant amount of malt was found in environmental samples taken from Trench 1, suggesting that brewing was taking place at the Site.
There was limited evidence of occupation of the Site prior to and after the Romano-British period. A small amount of struck flint was found in a tree throw in trench 5, and a single sherd of Anglo-Saxon pottery was found in a ditch in Trench 1. The Site has been subject to ploughing, and the state of preservation seems to have deteriorated through this activity, being further disturbed by the 1966 excavations. Topsoil across the Site is relatively shallow. The mosaic floor recorded in the 1966 excavations has not survived. The building had also been robbed in antiquity and a number of the walls were represented only by robber trenches.
