A Comparison of 20th Century Theories of Style (in the Context of Czech and British Scholarly Discourses)
Author(s): Michal Křístek / Language(s): English / Publication Year: 2012
The book is focused on a comparison of theoretical approaches to issues of style, in the context of Czech and Anglo-Saxon (especially British) scholarly discourses. The aim was to show and compare different methodological approaches based on different theoretical bases – for this reason, two different cultural contexts were selected, attention being paid also to mutual contacts within these contexts. The 20th century was chosen intentionally, as the period during which, in both of the respective contexts, stylistics was constituted as a modern scholarly discipline rooted in the fields of linguistics and literary theory. The book is aimed at members of academic communities, at teachers as well as at students, especially at those focusing on Czech and English studies.
Adolescent psychosocial development in Brno: An ELSPAC Study 2005–2011
Author(s): Stanislav Ježek,Petr Macek,Lenka Lacinová,Ondřej Bouša,Jan Vančura,Michaela Sokoliová,Aleš Neusar,Radka Michalčáková,Anna Ševčíková,Štěpán Konečný,Mojmír Tyrlík,Zuzana Sýkorová,Jiří Dalajka,Jan Šerek,Ivana Poledňová,Vladimír Marček,Martina Čavnická,Eva Beranová,Jan Širůček,Zuzana Masopustová,Jan Mareš / Language(s): English / Publication Year: 2011
Our longitudinal findings are in line with published research describing current adolescence as a dynamic stage of life during which an individual"s personal participation or influence on his or her development sharply increases. This leads, amongst other things, to higher variability of developmental changes and to an erosion of some stereotypes about the psychological and social life of adolescents. The respondents of the Brno longitudinal study (ELSPAC) represent a new generation of Czech adolescents. They were born in the time of turbulent social changes when political, economic and cultural conditions were significantly changing bringing along shifts in lifestyles, social norms and values of all generations including the parents of current adolescents. It can be hypothesised this society-wide change partially moderated the traditional inter generational conflict between adolescents and adults. We can speculate that the adults, not only the adolescents, partially spent the past two decades searching for a new personal and social identity (e.g. career changes, social security decrease, increase in personal freedom and responsibility of own life course). What was appreciated in the beginning of the 1990s as new possibilities – e.g. freedom in opinions and attitudes, opportunity to attain quality education, foreign travel, opportunities for self-actualisation etc. – is perceived as commonplace by today"s adolescents.
Alternatives in Biography: Writing Lives in Diverse English-Language Contexts
Author(s): Stephen Hardy,Martina Horáková,Michael Matthew Kaylor,Kateřina Prajznerová / Language(s): English / Publication Year: 2011
Alternatives in Biography focuses on texts that draw into question fictional, personal, and academic genre conventions, foregrounding the multiple ways lives are written and selves are constructed. Each of the four chapters examines a particular type of transgressive auto/biographical writing, namely versions of Uranian/fictionate autobiography, bioregional biography, pastoral biography, and Indigenous collaborative life writing. American, Australian, British, Canadian, and Northern Irish perspectives are explored. Key writers are A. Newman (1854–1932), Forrest Reid (1875–1947), Emily Carr (1871–1945), Emma Bell Miles (1879–1919), John Berger (1926–), Peter Ackroyd (1949–), Paul Carter (1951–), Rita (1921–1996) and Jackie Huggins (1956–), and Kim Scott (1957–) and Hazel Brown (1925–).

Aspectos problemáticos de la prefijación en español
Author(s): Petr Stehlík / Language(s): Spanish / Publication Year: 2011
The monograph aims to provide a clear and concise insight into theoretical problems related to prefixation in modern Spanish. Besides the explanation of some phenomena that contradict the traditional definition of prefix as an unstressed morpheme that does not change the lexical category of the base, special attention is paid to the still open debate on the status of prefixation (i.e. if it can be considered a type of derivation or compounding) and to the problematic classification of the Greek and Latin bound roots (the so-called prefixoids).

Boris N. Čičerin o ruských dějinách (státní škola jako historiografický a společenský fenomén)
Author(s): Josef Šaur / Language(s): Czech / Publication Year: 2015
The aim of the book is to clarify one of the fundamental chapters of Russian historiography history. It puts forward analysis of the Russian history concept of Boris N. Chicherin (1858–1904) within the Russian historiography context of that time and within the context of Chicherin's works on politics and philosophy. The paper shows the beginnings and circumstances of the so called state school of Russian historiography, the representatives of which were apart from Chicherin other reputable representatives of Russian historical thinking – K. D. Kavelin, S. M. Solov'ev and T. N. Granovskii. Using the relevant sources the individual aspects of their Russian history concepts are examined as well as the reaction to their work at that time. The book also shows the connections between the Russian history concept of Chicherin and Russian liberalism of the 19th century.
Bosna v chorvatských národně-integračních ideologiích 19. století
Author(s): Petr Stehlík / Language(s): Czech / Publication Year: 2013
The work comprehensively characterizes and assesses the status and role of Bosnia in Croatian national integration ideologies, which greatly contributed to the formation of modern Croatian nation in the 19th century (Illyrism, Yugoslavism, "Pravaštvo"). The text is written from a historical perspective and based on the comparative analysis of political and literary sources of the time. Although Bosnia has been a subject of interest for practically all generations of Croatian politicians, no similar work has been written so far, describing the transformations and constant ideas about the historical, political and national status of Bosnia, outlining the creation of the image of Bosnia and its inhabitants in the Croatian milieu.
Břeclav – Pohansko VII.: Kostelní pohřebiště na Severovýchodním předhradí
Author(s): Jiři Macháček,Petr Dresler,Renáta Prichystalová,Vladimír Sládek / Language(s): Czech / Publication Year: 2016
The excavation of the church cemetery in the north-eastern suburb at Pohansko near Břeclav took place between 2008 and 2012 as part of long-term systematic research into the site which is considered to be on a par with the most important centres of Great Moravia. The field work followed after the unexpected and surprising discovery of an early medieval rotunda which is the second religious structure to be uncovered at Pohansko (Macháček – Balcárková – Čáp et al. 2014). The new research activities in the north-eastern suburb can be divided into three main excavation areas – the Great Moravian rotunda, the church cemetery and the adjoining residential and/or production precinct of the whole settlement area. So far, the greatest attention has been paid to the church which, after the quarter of a century that has passed since the last similar find, augmented the unique and historically valuable group ofthe earliest religious and stone-wall architecture within the territory of the Czech Republic. The discovery has been comprehensively covered by a number of dedicated studies (Čáp – Dresler – Macháček et al. 2010; Macháček 2011; Macháček – Balcárková – Čáp et al. 2014). The excavation of the settlement related to the church has not yet been completed and as such is only marginally mentioned in this monograph. The main focus is aimed at the cemetery where excavation work finished in 2012. The necropolis falls within the category of church cemeteries as defined by Bořivoj Dostál (Dostál 1966, 15–17), and thus belongs to the group of the most valuable funeral heritage monuments from the period of Great Moravia. Its publication signifies the end of the second stage of the most recent archaeological research in the north-eastern suburb at Pohansko.
Břeclav-Pohansko VIII.: Hospodářské zázemí centra nebo jen osady v blízkosti centra?
Author(s): Petr Dresler / Language(s): Czech / Publication Year: 2018
The departure point of the study is the project "The Economic Hinterland of a Centre, or Mere Settlements in the Vicinity of a Centre's Hinterland?" supported by the Grant Agency of the CR that explored the immediate surroundings and hinterland of the Great Moravian fortified centre of Pohansko, near Břeclav. The settlement structure in the vicinity of a densely populated centre and its development from the Early Hillfort period until the Late Hillfort period (8th – 12th centuries) were investigated by means of surface prospection, microprobes and archaeological research. Apart from defining the settlement structure, the number of inhabitants of the early medieval centre was estimated and the subsistence strategy of the population was examined. Earlier conceptions about a network of farming communities supplying the inhabitants of Great Moravian Pohansko were revised and a new model was introduced, based on the absence of chronologically parallel settlement (if this is at all possible to identify in the archaeological material), the revision of the construction elements of the traditional model and new or hitherto marginalized evidence of the active involvement of the centre's inhabitants in farming.
Cahier pratique de syntaxe française
Author(s): Christophe Cusimano / Language(s): French / Publication Year: 2010
This handbook introduces some knotty notions and syntactic structures in the immediate constituents theory from a didactic point of view. With the help of 40 exercises, each of them with solution, the author increases the reader awareness of one or two problems before submitting a sentence for analysis. The technical tip of turning around the table of commutation tests in order to change it into syntactical tree is also a significant didactic breakthrough: it enables demonstration which is the base of the debate on the accuracy of analysis. Then the author produces all the critical thinking elements. So here is a small handbook without theoretical advance purpose, but it should be of use for all the students in linguistics.
Caused Motion: Secondary Agent Constructions
Author(s): Naděžda Kudrnáčová / Language(s): English / Publication Year: 2013
Secondary agent constructions (SA constructions) represent verb-class specific constructions (in the sense of Croft 2003). The reasons are as follows: (a) SA constructions include a narrowly defined set of verbs and (b) the resulting meaning is derived from the interaction between the meaning of the verbs and the meaning of the construction, involving a very specific causal structuration (as regards the form of SA constructions, directional phrases can be missing, depending on the type of scenario). Heavy restrictions imposed on the repertory of verbs that are admitted into these constructions have been explained in the literature by the inherently monadic, non-causative nature of these verbs. It has often been claimed in the relevant literature that manner of motion is not syntactically relevant. However, owing to the apparent restrictions imposed on the syntactic applicability of self-agentive manner of motion verbs (including their usability in SA constructions), it is evident that the claim cannot be maintained. Boas (2006, 2008) has shown convincingly that there are connections between the verb's descriptivity (roughly, the complexity and specificity of the verb´s meaning) and the range of syntactic patterns into which the verb may enter. Nevertheless, his account does not make clear exactly which elements of the verb´s meaning decide the verb's usability in SA constructions (and in some other types of syntactic patterns).
Centrální Českomoravská vrchovina na prahu vrcholného středověku. Archeologie, geochemie a rozbory sedimentárních výplní niv.
Author(s): Petr Hrubý,Petr Hejhal,Karel Malý,Petr Kočár,Libor Petr / Language(s): Czech / Publication Year: 2014
The book presents the synthesis of the environmental and archaeological approaches which can answer a principally historical questions related to the uprise of the high mediaeval settlement structure but also of the beginnings of the gold and silver exploitation in the project base area. The book offers structured data to the mediaeval development in the region which is still lacking direct archaelogical evidence in many areas. A low and sometimes difficult detectability of early deforestation, settlement and a whole spectre of the mining activities is compensated by archaeoenvironmental, geochemical and archaeometallurgical analytics of the alluvial sediments in this territory.
Cestami lidového tance
Zdenka Jelínková a česká etnochoreologie
Author(s): Martina Pavlicová / Language(s): Czech / Publication Year: 2012
Zdenka Jelínková was a prominent researcher in the area of folk dancing, who was present at the birth of Czech ethnochoreology after the Second World War. She was born on 30th March 1920 in south-eastern Moravia in Velká nad Veličkou, which belongs to the Horňácko ethnographic region. In her childhood and youth she still had opportunities to encounter numerous manifestations of traditional folk culture, which were gradually disappearing from everyday life due to the influence of modern society. She came from a white-collar family; however, she was attracted by rural folk culture, mainly folklore manifestations. She regularly returned to Horňácko even after her family moved to Brno. The closure of universities during the Nazi occupation in 1939 prevented her from studying the subjects she had already enrolled in (Physical Education – French), therefore she at least graduated from the school for instructors of the Czech Sokol Community (Česká obec sokolská) in Prague (1940) and worked as a teacher at various schools until 1950. Her interest in folk dancing and in children folklore did not wane even during her teaching career; she was also active in the folklore movement. In 1949 her erudition brought her to a group of collectors who were making folklore records for the collections of the Folk Song Institute (Ústav pro lidovou píseň) in Brno. In 1950 she was hired as a qualified worker of this institution and worked here until her retirement in 1982. Not even then did she give up her ethnochoreological activities. She died on 5th October 2005.
Cesty božstev: Otázky interpretace náboženství a nacionalismu v moderním Japonsku
Author(s): Jakub Havlíček / Language(s): Czech / Publication Year: 2011
The monograph "Gods' Ways. Interpreting Religions and Nationalism in Modern Japan" deals with the role of religious phenomena in the process of forming the national identity in modern Japan, with the problem to identify and interpret these phenomena. The introductory chapter is concerned with the issue of defining the theoretical and methodological frame of the thesis. It characterizes the study of religions as a critical social science. Referring to Jonathan Z. Smith, the author deals with the concept of religion as with an analytical category and treats this concept as a social construction originating in the context of Western, Euro-American culture. The thesis is also occupied with the questionof identifying religious phenomena in the context of Japan. It deals with the theories of secularization, with the process of defining religious and secular domains, as well as with the concepts of nation in social sciences. It concerns the subject of implicit religions, finding the theories of implicit religions to be rather vague and inadequate for analyzing religious phenomena in modern Japan. In the conclusion to the chapter, the author proposes the definition of "religion" based on Benson Saler's concept of tracing "family resemblances" of the phenomena classified as religious. Second chapter deals with the topic of interpreting and systematizing religious phenomena in Japan. It concentrates on the concepts of Shinto and Japanese religion in the works of H. Byron Earhart, Karel Werner, Thomas P. Kasulis, Joseph M. Kitagawa, and Isaiah Ben-Dasan.
Cesty do dospělosti: Psychologické a sociální charakteristiky dnešních dvacátníků
Author(s): / Language(s): Czech / Publication Year: 2016
In the course of last five years, a team of psychologists from the Institute for Children, Youth and Family Research at the Faculty of Social Studies has observed a sample of over thousand people born in 1990-1994. If you are interested how these young adults think about themselves and about the world, where and with whom they live and what relations they have, you may find the answers here. The book is thematically complex and offers a probe into novel social-psychological phenomena, such as the identity of young Vietnamese adults in Czechia or the phenomenon of "friendship with benefits".


I got - Ground type.

While you're working toward trying to pay back your pay day loans, you must try and find numerous ways to save money wherever you'll be able to. In Wednesday's opinion by Justice David Stras, the court rejected that argument, holding that Minnesota's payday lending law is constitutional. If you've got forgotten your login info, send an e-mail to. I will engage the debate about whether payday loans are bad for consumers. Payday lenders made effective use with the sovereign status of Native American reservations, often forming partnerships with members of a tribe to provide loans over the internet which evade state law. No representation or guarantee is manufactured hereby an applicant who meets the foregoing requirements where can i get a payday loan – https://simql.com/where-can-i-get-a-payday-loan/ obtain that loan in any amount or for virtually any term. His stories have appeared in The New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and a huge selection of other publications. A lower, fixed price combined without origination fees could make personal loans a unique proposition for borrowers. We must continue working to formulate and improve credit products for consumers who may benefit more from longer-term options than the usual traditional two-week cash advance. But cap proponents say consumers often get the short-term loans and therefore are not able to repay them, resulting in a very series of loans as well as an effective annual monthly interest of a lot more than 300 percent.
As part of that commitment, we can't ever sell your personal information to your third parties. The first three were family members as well as the fourth was a reporter who had been really curious in regards to the process and wanted to document it. Currently, Danny Cornelius, director of code enforcement for your City of Canyon, said you will find no existing CABs inside Canyon city limits. If you provide proof of income, Lend – Up won't perform hard credit pull, so applying for any Lend – Up loan won't hurt your credit score. This means you pay merely the interest owed and extend the. That said, in case you're in the tough situation and considering a cash advance, choosing a cash advance on the credit card is really a possible alternative. If you are able to't work, you may find yourself out in excess of wages for the missed days. This increase came despite tougher regulation in the controversial sector. However, federal reach is growing through newly created groups like the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. If you're military, contact your service's relief society.
Payday loans are advertised because most easy and accessible type of loan for an emergency situation. These relationships create more knowing of Credit. But Benjamin Lawsky, superintendent of economic services for New York State, doesn't buy that argument. In relation to its your bank account, if you have not given any security number such as PIN or password to your online log-in, it's generally still safe. Nineteen from the states that authorize payday loans places – https://simql.com/payday-loans-places/ lending allow lenders to roll over a loan, in which case the borrower pays just the interest fee and extends the borrowed funds for a fortnight. Annual numbers for 2016 are not released because fewer than five CABs reported. Lend – Up can be a licensed Credit Access Business that provides. Each lender may have different rates and fees, so be likely to review the terms before accepting and enquire of any questions you could possibly have. New CFPB regulations would require payday lenders to get evidence that borrowers can repay their loans before they make sure they are by verifying income, debts, and credit rating. But there are important differences one of them, in terms from the situations that trigger the need for any loan along with their ability to spend.

The Bates Difference.
Thread starter Obi1
Obi1
From what I've read, it seems that the previus 2 Defensive coordinators really didn't have the respect of the players. It seems that Bates has that and more.
Bates' approach seems to indicate that he holds every defensive player accountable for their actions on the field.
That means he will have much more respect from his players and have a better pulse of the overall defense at game time.
By making the players accountable, he makes each individual think about his own playmaking and thus making him a more cerebral player.
that may make each player step up to another level...
That means the underachieving defense that we saw on the field will be gone and the bunch that will be out there are a smarter, hungrier, more cohesive group which in turn will make fewer mistakes.
I think Bates has just made the Packers better. Only time will tell as to how much better.
digsthepack
Most importantly, Bates does not create esoteric defenses that make advanced calculus seem relatively easy. I have always had the feeling that from Sherman down, this coaching staff has been littered with a bunch of cerebral types who consistently outthink themselves....." I know they know that I know they know, so therefore I will do X to counter this knowledge."
Football is not a cerebral sport..sure, you can do some creative things on both sides of the ball, but just remember that the basis of sound football is hitting people and tackling them. Something that the Packers have not done well for years. I think it is safe to say that in recent years our defense has become worse than finesse....sadly, they have been soft players in a soft scheme that apparently did not consider the benefits of intimidation as a result of hard hitting play.
Bates changed that the day he walked in. If nothing else, this defense will play sound fundamentals and hit you hard. And please note that EVERY player we drafted this year, while maybe not the guy with the fastest 40s or highers verticals, typically played with great intensity and effort, and had sound fundamentals already in place.

Lets hope so.
Good post Obi1. I agree with you that Bates has made the Packers better. I know that he is not coaching offence but I believe he will make a difference on both sides of the ball. If the attitudes of the defensive players is better and they are as you say held accountable I believe that this attitude will spill over on to the offence and inprove the team as a whole.
Digs,
I agree in most part with your post.
I think "cerebral" is an important facet of the player. Overthinking and second guessing is NOT being cerebral, but thinking and responding quickly IS. So is the presence of mind to NOT lose control with cheap shots, to strip the ball at an opportune time, the ability to admit a mistake on a blown play and go on to keep making good plays instead of dwelling on the mistake... All those are CEREBRAL characteristics.
I am really happy to see a more physical and IN SHAPE defense. As Lombardi(I think) once said "...Fatigue makes cowards of us all..."
Perhaps I should have typed "cerebral" with quotation marks as it was certainly said tongue-in-cheek. Your assessment was more accurate in stating they over-think or second guess. That was the point I wanted to make.

It's interesting that for all the guys, including many on this forum, who were singing Donatell's praises last year, he doesn't even run that Under 7 Slice crap anymore, because most guys can't figure it out. He got a bunch of credit for running Mora's scheme. The genius of guys like Lombardi, Belichik and, I hope, Bates, is that their schemes are easy to run and it's all about execution. I think we have guys on our roster who can make plays when put in the right position and they'll definitely be there this season.

I wasn't around in the Lombardi yrs, but my dad always told me that Vince would say that you should be able to tell the defense the play you're going to run, and still gain at least 3 yards everytime...which ties into the digs' quote. You can be as cute and "cerebral" as you want to be, but it doesn't mean squat if your players can't wrap up on a tackle, maintain a block, accelerate off a cut, play flat, etc.
I should clarify, that I'm not suggesting that Bates is as good as Lombardi is, just that he seems to have the same philosophy about simplicity and execution.
NDPackerFan
If Bates is half as good as Vince was, the Packers will be better already without even taking a snap!
Jim Bates has had better talent in Miami then what he will have in Green Bay for 2005.
DL is critical in any quality defense. Packer's DL is a joke...
The Point is, Bates has made the PACKERS defense better with his approach and style.
It makes no difference WHAT he had in Miami. We are talking about the 2005 Green bay packers. By his inclusion, the defense just got much better than 2004.
And THAT was Sherman's fault.

Keep praying Obi1...
Praying?
Oh, YOU mean preying... Like the Packers prey on the Bears, Lions, and The Vikings.
Preying, like YOU do on this forum so that you can post your EVERYONE SHOULD HATE SHERMAN garbage...
I see, I am glad that I could clear up the spelling for you.
HatestheEagles084
In this discussion, just about everyone has been very optimistic or very pessimistic...I find myself somewhere in the middle, what I call 'cautious optimism'
To the 'negatives'...sometimes I think of myself as negative, then after reading some of the completely anti-packer stuff on this board, i dont consider myself THAT negative...there's reason to look up, thompson started to 'chop out the dead wood'...Darren Sharper is GONE, Mark Roman will not start, Hannibal Naivies will not start--those are three players who have cost the packers a lot, missed tackles, blown coverages, they haven't exactly been helping the situation. Our defense won't have the dissheveled look anymore, we won't blitz 65% of the time anymore like Slowik had us do, we won't let backs catch balls in the flat and run for 30 yards. Jim Bates is an established def. coordinator, say what you will about the quality of the players, our defense will be more focused and mechanically sound than last season. We've made improvements, Ray Thompson will help out the run tremendously, Earl Little, Arturo Freeman, Collins, Underwood, whoever starts--could they do worse than Sharper or Roman, seriously...
to the 'positives'...I praised Jim Bates above, but I think too much faith is being put behind this guy to turn dirt into gold. People hang on this guy's every word..."ohh well he likes our defensive line depth, our defense is going to rule!" The starting four...KGB will sack the QB and give running backs a free pass, Grady Jackson could be a great run stuffer, could be double teamed because of the ineffectiveness of the rest of the d-line (who else starts at DT?), or big Grady could get hurt and we are SCREWED; I don't feel I'm jumping to any extremes, if we lose grady we're in DEEP (poop)! Aaron Kampman plays his heart out, has shown improvement, but I don't see him progressing that much further, which means this line is going to have trouble causing chaos in the backfield.
Behind our starting four...Donnell Washington, James Lee, R-Kal Truluk, Mike Montgomery, Cullen Jenkins, Corey Williams, guys who could be good, but haven't proven anything in the NFL yet. Cleditus Hunt? Nobody knows where this man is...
Secondary...I praised our safety signings above, but these guys were marginal starters, did a good job, but did not set the world on fire, we also have two rookies--two rookies from SMALL PROGRAMS. Cornerbacks...Al Harris and (whoever wins the battle for #2), the fact of the matter is we're going to get passed on a lot if our defensive line allows the other team time to throw. I just hope whoever starts opposite #31 matures and plays the position very well.
And the other arguement is Jim Bates and the talent he had in Miami, sure he made great players out of the defense in Miami, but they also had talent, will Bates do the same and make our rag-tag bunch into a great defense? I don't know...I'd be more comfortable if we would've spent high picks on them, guys like Dan Cody or Justin Tuck or Channing Crowder, Babineaux, etc. But instead, people are hyping up late round picks...Mike Montgomery is going to be "a star defensive end", Mike Hawkins has "an amazing life story, blazing speed, and will be a good cornerback for us", Kurt Campbell, i never heard where he went to school but "he's big and a tweener LB-Safety, so he'll be good", now come on, just because we ignored our needs early and drafted to fill those needs late doesnt mean we are well off in terms of defensive prospects...I know you guys are trying to put a good face on this but all we drafted are longshot prospects that may or may not pan out
And as for the divisional competition, I'm glad to see some of you guys hyping up the team for another divisional run (hell i'd rather see that than the excessive negativity) but the three other teams made progress also, and I would not be surprised to see the Packers not win the division, do I think that I'm a negative person, no--because I want my team to win and that's all that matters, I think a lot of people on here are hoping for a Packers' slip up in '05 just for the 'told ya so' factor.
To both sides: way too much energy is being exerted on...June 22nd towards a football season that doesnt start until sometime in september, camp doesnt even start for a month. everyone needs to take a step back, observe, read up on newspaper articles about the team. Whether you're sneeringly over negative, or enthusiastically over-positive, just tone it down. Me? honestly I think our defense will improve, not by leaps and bounds, but I think we will be middle of the pack, and won't get lit up for 30+ points a bunch of times this season. A lot can happen during training camp and the preseason, just wait to see what happens.

Steel wheels, this is what Bates has to say about his new defensive line:
"I like our front," Bates said last week before assuming his duties. "I like the size in the middle, I like the speed coming off the edges as far as I feel real good about Gbaja-Biamila. I really feel good about him as far as having 11 sacks on the average over the last three years. I feel like I cannot wait to get to work with him. He reminds me a little bit of Jason Taylor that's down here (in Miami), and I'm looking forward to evaluating him on tape and seeing if there's some more improvement we can make. And there's a lot of depth at the different positions that we're looking forward to working with." (Journal Sentinal, 2/2/05)
"I've never been in a situation that we have such good depth in the 15 years I've been in the league," he said. "People will say, 'It wasn't a very good defensive line.' I disagree. The ability's there. We will get that ability level up and you will see vast improvement in the defensive line." (Journal-Sentinel 4/24/05)
But, what the hell would Bates know, right??
JBlood said:
What do you want him to do tell the truth and say they stink. Bates is being diplomatic and trying to build some confidence.
Hunt hasn't even been around and Grady Jackson has been nursing an injury.
We will all be finding out soon enough when the preseason games get under way. We can get a feel for what progress Bates and company are making.
Bates has done nothing but put pressure on himself and his assistants by proclaming that the talent level is already in Green Bay. If the talent stinks, as you claim, what does he say? This guy doesn't know what "diplomatic" means--he just coaches. He'll build confidence by putting these players in position to make plays--something that hasn't occurred on the defensive side of the ball since Fritz left.
Will Jim be bigger than Fritz??
Man, I don't know. Looking at Shurmur next to Bates gives me goosebumps. Those are huge shoes to fill, that's fer sure! Good luck Coach Bates, I'm with you 110% :bang:
ArizonaPackerFan
I agree with Obi1's original post. I think Slowik lost the respect of his players, and that affects their performance on the field. I know I work harder for people I respect, and I think football players do as well. Bates has instant crediblity with his players, which is something Slowik never had.
I'm excited about Bates. He'll definately improve the defense. The big question to me is how much can he improve it with the talent he has? My guess would be he will be able to turn one of the lower ranked defenses into one ranked somewhere in the middle. If we can get a couple of the 2nd year players to take a big jump in their level of play the way KGB did in his 2nd year, then maybe Bates has a chance to make it a top 10 defense. With Bates, we might have a chance to actually win a few games with the defense, instead of winning despite the defense like we did with Slowik.
Right ON! APF.
Packers with a middle- ranked defense would have made the superbowl.
The D lost several games in the regular season for us.... As far as the Playoff game... The defense didn't even dress out.

Okay - but I think you'd better go back and re-read the articles on the New England Patriots and their intelligence levels "required" ....btw!
If they cannot grasp the playbook, why are they still in the NFL?
Belicheck's main point when bringing players in.... remember it!
PackerTraxx
Coaches make a difference. Two years ago ,if I recall properly, we were the #17 defense with basically the same personnel. If Bates gets us back to that level or better, which I believe he willl do, we should have a good year. We have not had good coaching, so some of these guys may be better than we know. It would be great if 2 or 3 had a breakout year. I would sooner have a great coach than a great player.
I think you raise a great point packertraxx...like others have said, Slowik lost this team after the 2nd game when the bears figured out how to beat the blitz. I've been very critical of the players, but I don't know that anyone really know what the packers have...mind you I don't think there are 8 pro bowlers buried on the roster...
Anyways...if Bates is able to get the defense to rank somewhere between 10 and 15ish, this team could be looking at making a run late into the playoffs.

Shall we call him Master Bates ? I get the feeling this is just what our players needed-good coaching.

MINNEAPOLIS — A federal judge rejected the key parts of a lawsuit brought by tribal and environmental groups that sought to block a capacity expansion on the Alberta Clipper crude oil pipeline, saying Wednesday that the courts don't have the authority to intervene at this stage.
U.S. District Judge Michael Davis concluded the letters the State Department sent to Canadian-based Enbridge Energy weren't the kinds of final decisions that courts have jurisdiction to review.
A coalition of tribal, environmental and climate change groups sued, saying the State Department should not have allowed Enbridge to build a temporary workaround to move more tar sands crude across the border pending the final federal approval. They said it threatens ecologically sensitive areas in northern Minnesota, and resources such as wild rice that are important to the area's Ojibwe bands.
But the government countered that the State Department merely confirmed that Enbridge already had the legal authority to proceed under its existing permit.
"Obviously we're disappointed in the decision, which essentially says the courts can't help you," said Ken Rumelt, an environmental attorney from the Vermont Law School, who represented the plaintiffs. He said they'll consider whether to appeal after they've digested the judge's opinion.
The plaintiffs, including the Sierra Club, issued statements saying that while the court may not have the authority to stop the project, President Barack Obama does. They noted that a fully expanded Alberta Clipper would carry more tar sands oil than the proposed Keystone XL pipeline, which Obama killed last month because it would have undercut U.S. efforts to achieve a global climate change deal.
"Now, just as he did with Keystone, President Obama can call for a full review of Enbridge's plans and ultimately reject a pipeline expansion that would do irreparable harm to our climate, our environment, and our public health," said Lena Moffitt, director of the Sierra Club's Beyond Dirty Fuels Campaign.
The plaintiffs — including the National Wildlife Federation, 350.org and other groups — also pointed out a National Academy of Sciences released Tuesday that says heavy Canadian tar sands oil poses more environmental risks than conventional crude because it's harder to clean up when it spills from pipelines into water.
The 1,000-mile Alberta Clipper, built in 2010, starts in Alberta, crosses into northeastern North Dakota and runs across northern Minnesota to an Enbridge terminal in Superior, Wisconsin. It follows the same route as Enbridge's deteriorating Line 3, which dates from the 1960s and runs at reduced capacity.
Enbridge last year upgraded a stretch of Line 3 where it crosses the border, and built connections so it can serve as a detour to handle some of the flow from the Alberta Clipper. It plans to keep that arrangement in place until it gets State Department approval for expanding the capacity of a short section of the Alberta Clipper where it crosses the border.
Enbridge said in a statement that the court decision leaves the State Department's existing approvals for the Alberta Clipper and Line 3 in place.

When was the last time you wrote a letter to your mother?
Mother's Day is almost here – so when was the last time you wrote to your mum?
In today's age of text and emails the humble letter is an increasing rarity.
But for hundreds of years this was a treasured form of communication between family members.
The Arnold Bennett Collection at The Potteries Museum contains correspondence between the acclaimed writer and his mother, Sarah Ann Bennett, above.
You can see a photograph of Sarah amongst some of Arnold Bennett's personal items on display in Local History Galleries.
Arnold, below, was clearly an attentive son – sending an almost constant stream of postcards. On one day in 1904 he sent seven in a single day!
In one particularly unusual letter from 1908, Bennett sets out his text in two columns with decorative, enlarged letters at the start of some paragraphs, akin to a monastic illuminated manuscript.
This is just an experiment that I am making as to the form and look of a page in double column that I mean to adopt for a future manuscript that I have in mind.
Our collection doesn't record what Sarah Ann Bennett thought of her son's experimental letter, or his 'killing two birds with one stone'!


Brandi grew up in Wisconsin where she played multiple highschool sports and spent time each summer visiting her grandparents on Bainbridge. She earned her B.B.A from the University of Wisconsin-Madison where she also met her future husband, Chris. A career opportunity took her to the east coast for a few years, but after earning her MBA, she and Chris made the move to Washington to plant their roots and raise their two daughters. She became passionate about running and went on to complete 8 marathons before finding CrossFit in 2009. She fell in love with the community aspect of CrossFit, the constantly varied nature of workouts and the exceptional results it produced for so many people. She has close to a decade of experience coaching clients of all ages and abilities, and when she's not in the gym, she can be found traveling around the world as part of the CrossFit Kids seminar staff educating coaches, parents and teachers about how to help kids develop a lifetime love of fitness. She is most passionate about working with teens, individuals with developmental disabilities, and anyone who is committed to making a positive change in their overall health. Go Badgers!
Chris has been an athlete his entire life. He learned to skate at 4, started playing hockey at 5, and was an accomplished athlete in golf, baseball, football, and hockey throughout high school. He was also a longtime Globo-Gym weightlifter until being introduced to CrossFit in 2009. Other accomplishments include completing 8 marathons, as well as numerous half-marathons and 10 mile races. Chris earned a B.A. in History from the University of Wisconsin-Madison where he was also a member of the Wisconsin Badgers Hockey Team from 1994-1997. He had the benefit of training with a highly qualified coaching staff that provided education on weight lifting, a personalized strength & conditioning program, and nutrition advice, all in a world class athletic facility. An untimely broken hand derailed his professional hockey career. As an athlete and coach, Chris' focus is on proper technique rather than the amount of weight being lifted or moved. His philosophy is simple, "You're here today to be better than yesterday." Chris relies heavily on his education and experience as a Division 1 athlete, CrossFit Games Masters athlete, and professional GRID athlete. His coaching style is personalized to the athlete to encourage and instill confidence for maximum results.
Jessica grew up in Southern California where she started playing competitive softball at the age of 10, which eventually earned her a full scholarship to the University of South Carolina. During college she played catcher and outfield until an elbow and back injury limited her to being a designated hitter. After moving to Washington after graduation, Jessica looked for something to replace the discipline and competitiveness of softball and turned to running. After completing two half-marathons, she quickly realized that running wasn't for her and set out to find something to replace it. CrossFit entered Jessica's life in January of 2013 and she immediately fell in love with the discipline, community and competitiveness with oneself that it brought. Coming from a competitive powerlifting family,she felt like it blended her two loves (lifting heavy and moving fast) in a way she hadn't experienced before. In her spare time, she is a mother of 3 crazy kids and softball hitting instructor. Jessica is passionate about helping young athletes get to the next level, and anyone else who is trying to become a better, stronger and healthier version of themselves. The best feeling as a coach is watching someone accomplish something they never thought they would be able to do! Oh yes, and GO GAMECOCKS!

Maggie is the resident transformation specialist, having lost over 100 pounds on her ongoing fitness journey. Having struggled with weight most of her life, she always enjoyed watching sports, but largely sat on the sidelines feeling her weight held her back. Over the years she tried many fad diets, yo-yo'ing up and down as these never worked. At one point she tried to obtain a new level of fitness and weight loss by training for one half marathon, two marathons and then one triathlon. While these instilled in her a level of determination and tenacity, they had little impact on losing weight and had no real lifestyle changes or adjustments to her nutrition. Further, her family grew to having three girls, but along with that, she added on pounds with each pregnancy. Finally, after her last daughter was born, Maggie determined she just had enough and if nothing was done, she'd soon weigh over 300 pounds. She started by dialing in nutrition, first with quantity, and then quality. Then, she recorded all her food macros to add more protein into her diet and added in near-daily walking to get moving. After some success, she could tell something was missing and she wanted to excellerate the process. Despite her fears (can this really scale?!?), she decided to start CrossFit in Brandi's garage. During her first sessions, she couldn't squat without sitting down on a box, could only plank for 1 second, would lunge to a rolled up towel, could barely box jump to 6 inches. Fast forward through many WODs, weekly commitment and dedication at 5:15 am, she now celebrates many non-scale victories: walking up and down multiple flights of stairs without using a handrail, carrying her four year old all the way home from festive town event, shopping in any clothing store, not just those with Plus Sized sections, and not needing a seat belt extender on flights. She became so passionate about her journey, she decided to leave the corporate world behind and pursue CrossFit coaching as a career so she could help others find their grit, commit to the process and be their best selves. She still loves good food and drink, but knows how to fit it into a healthy lifestyle. Travel and reading are her other favorite activities, along with being a great role model for her active daughters.
Having grown up in Southern Vermont, Sarah is no stranger to the importance of being active and spending time outdoors. Sports were at the forefront of her experience of middle and high school and this is where she found the significance of belonging on a team. She graduated from the University of Vermont with a degree in Environmental Studies and then found herself in Connecticut where she started a family and later rediscovered her passion for sport through competitive running. Having completed 1 full, 2 half marathons and multiple 10k and 5ks, she discovered a national nonprofit called Girls on the Run®, an after school program for girls in grades 3-8 which uses running to empower and motivate girls to believe anything in life is possible. She created the Southeastern Connecticut council and was the Director for over 3 years. After moving to the PNW, she continues to be involved with Girls on the Run of West Sound as a member on their board of directors. Sarah passionately believes in the empowering ability of sport and fitness and hopes to encourage her athletes to be the best versions of themselves by pushing through the hard stuff.


"A Bolt can connect two components, multiple components, or a component and the ground. You can define bolts through a mixed stack of solids, shells and sheet metal bodies. You can also define a bolt by selecting entities of the same component."
Unfortunately you can't bolt between solid and beam. You'll need to work on your idealizations to switch the ones you want to bolt into shells or solids.
hi Krysztof, i think eventually you're going to get an error because your problem isn't restrained/connected properly. I would suggest starting simple with just the main component there and a gravity load and fixed restraint. Then add the next part and get it to run...and on and on until you get the full assembly.

Its state-of-the-art warehouses manage customer storage capacities, and with the help of its temperature-controlled supply chain, the company's warehouses and delivery fleet comply with good storage practices (GSP) and good distribution practices (GDP) established by the World Health Organization.
IMPORTATION AND PACKAGING
In recent years, Ibnsina Pharma expanded its portfolio and became an importer of various nutrition products and medical devices from multinational organizations and major pharmaceutical companies worldwide. The team is constantly pursuing new partnerships with reputable international suppliers to further meet demand in the Egyptian pharmaceuticals market and ensure that people have access to safe, high-quality products they need to thrive.

Its teams coordinate with suppliers at every stage of developing commercial offers including planning, design, distribution, and follow-up analysis. Ibnsina Pharma works diligently to realize suppliers' desired strategies, meet all objectives and sales targets, and successfully position co-promoted products against those of competing brands.
Ibnsina Pharma was established in 2001 as a pharmaceutical distribution company under the name Ibnsina Laborex Pharma by a group of Egyptian investors in cooperation with the French Eurapharma Group. In 2006, the company's Egyptian partners acquired 100% of its shares, leading to its rebranding as Ibnsina Pharma.
In 2009, the company turned its sights on expansion, making significant investments to add 15 distribution centers and five offices by 2012 as it embarked on a journey to enhance efficiency through standardizing operational processes.
The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) became a minority shareholder in 2015, acquiring a 21% stake through primary and secondary share transactions during the year.
The company's growth drive continued in 2017 with its intention to proceed with an initial public offering on the Egyptian Exchange, offering up 38% of its shares on its road to becoming a publically traded company.
As of September 2017, Ibnsina Pharma has grown its market share to 18.8%, and its growth has more than doubled that of the market for the last five years, with a CAGR in revenues of 31% compared to an industry CAGR of 17%.
Ibnsina Pharma is the second-largest pharmaceutical distribution company in Egypt and the country's fastest growing. Its success is anchored by a collective decision-making strategy and decentralized approach to management, both of which have been built on the solid foundations of its people. The company is a firm believer that realizing a business strategy is the responsibility of everyone in the organization, which is why it relies heavily on key information and market intelligence to drive its strategic objectives forward. Its leadership in the market hinges on the strength of its internal structure and its effectiveness in seeing through the company's three-axis strategy: strengthening its core business, value-based differentiation, and diversifying revenue streams.
STRENGTHENING ITS CORE BUSINESS
Ibnsina Pharma is committed to solidifying and growing its legacy pharmaceutical distribution business through building a highly efficient supply chain and utilizing advanced technologies to provide the highest standard of services to clients. Its competitive advantage over new entrants is exemplified in its economies of scale, with over 9,500 SKUs, 35,000 customers, c.600 distribution vehicles, and a 5,500-person strong team.
VALUE-BASED DIFFERENTIATION
Ibnsina Pharma seeks to establish sustainable, value-based differentiation in the market as it focuses resource allocation to maximize value. It funnels considerable time, energy, and manpower to providing its highest-value clients with a comprehensive portfolio of services beyond its core business of distribution. This has allowed the company to grow considerably faster than competitors as it delivers every day on a high volume of transactions for a large number of suppliers and end consumers. As such, Ibnsina Pharma's growth has outpaced the market by over twofold for the last five years, with a CAGR in revenues of 31% compared to an industry CAGR of 17%.
DIVERSIFYING REVENUE STREAMS
Because Ibnsina Pharma believes diversified revenue streams largely mitigate risk for any organization, the company has built up a solid, well rounded foundation to give it the know-how, assets, systems, and ability to handle complex operations that can be leveraged across industries. Its highly efficient supply chain, expansive distribution network, and third-party logistics activities (warehousing, transportation, overprinting, relabeling, and repackaging) will allow it to reap long-term benefits from the expansion into higher-margin, diversified revenue streams.
Healthcare is a highly defensive sector in Egypt with significant room for continued growth driven by recent regulatory reforms, increasing incidence of chronic disease, and a surge in generic uptake. Egypt also has a growing middle class with higher healthcare awareness and slowly burgeoning disposable income. In addition, the population, which is poised to hit 102 million by 2021, is increasingly aging, with the number of people over 65 years expected to increase to 8.1% of the total population by 2020. All of these factors perfectly position Egypt as the largest and most attractive healthcare market in the region, with a healthcare expenditure CAGR of 12% in 2013-2017.
HEALTH EXPENDITURE CAGR 2013-2017
Industry growth is also largely driven by the pharmaceuticals market given the under-penetration of healthcare insurance that force out-of-pocket sales of pharmaceutical products, with pharmaceutical sales having grown to EGP 41 billion in 2016 — a CAGR of 17%
PHARMACEUTICAL SALES (EGP BN)
Compounding matters is the retail price surge for pharmaceutical product in the wake of the November 2016 float of the Egyptian pound. The retail prices of over 3,000 SKUs rose 30-50% in 2016 and medications costing less than EGP 30 saw a 20% rise in 2017 due to increased input and production costs. This in addition to a steady increase in the number of pharmacies over the past five years means a wider customer base and higher returns for pharmaceutical distributors like Ibnsina Pharma.
TOTAL NUMBER OF PHARMACIES, EGYPT ('000)
Ibnsina Pharma has reaped the considerable benefits of this market landscape by leveraging its nationwide geographical coverage, operational efficiency driven by an unparalleled supply chain processes, and multi-site operations with highly diversified supplier/client base. Coupled with its highly experienced management team and backed both by notable institutional shareholders and an exceptional team of 5,500 employees, Ibnsina Pharma holds a leading position in the market.

(Newser) – Boyz N the Hood director John Singleton suffered a stroke this week and remains hospitalized, according to his family, the AP reports. Additional details, including his condition, were not immediately available. In a statement released Saturday, Singleton's family announced that the 51-year-old filmmaker was in ICU and "under great medical care." "On Wednesday, April 17th our beloved son/father, John Singleton, suffered a stroke while at the hospital," the statement reads. "We ask that privacy be given to him and our family at this time and appreciate all of the prayers that have been pouring in from his fans, friends and colleagues." Variety reports that the stroke has been called "mild."
Author Neil deGrasse Tyson and actor Omar Epps have been among those tweeting wishes Saturday for a quick recovery; Snoop Dogg, Jonathan Levine, and William Friedkin also gave their well wishes, per the Hollywood Reporter. Singleton became the first black filmmaker to receive an Oscar nomination when he was cited for his debut feature, Boyz N the Hood, set in his native Los Angeles and released in 1991. His other films include Poetic Justice, which starred Janet Jackson and Tupac Shakur, and Rosewood. Singleton's recent projects include the TV series Snowfall, a crime drama set in 1980s Los Angeles. Singleton felt leg weakness after flying home from Costa Rica and checked himself in this week, per TMZ, which broke the story. The flight may have contributed to the health problem.

UToledo to commemorate 18th anniversary of Sept. 11 terror attacks
September 9th, 2019 by Christine Billau
The University of Toledo is commemorating the 18th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks with the second annual Run to Remember, a 22 push-up challenge and a memorial stair climb.
The UToledo Army ROTC Program is inviting the community to participate in its second annual Run to Remember Wednesday, Sept. 11.
Registration and T-shirt pickup will begin at 7 a.m. at the UToledo track by the Health Education Center on Main Campus. An opening ceremony will follow at 7:30 a.m., and the run and walk will begin at 7:40 a.m.
University Hall's bell tower will chime at 8:46 a.m., the time when the attacks began in 2001, and the event will conclude with a moment of silence.
"We're running to honor and commemorate the men and women who showed selfless service as they descended to Ground Zero to help in the search and rescue efforts of those who were either injured or killed during the 9/11 attacks," Maj. Colby Pepon, professor and chair of the Military Science and Leadership Department, said.
The 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb begins at 12:30 p.m. in the Glass Bowl. Participants will climb the equivalent to the 110 stories of the World Trade Center in honor of those lost in the 2001 attacks.
The UToledo Military Service Center will host the 22 Push-Up Challenge from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in front of Memorial Field House.
Campus and community members can stop by and do 22 push-ups — and learn more about the veteran suicide epidemic in the United States.
"We were looking for a way to raise awareness of veteran suicide on campus, and the 22 Push-Up Challenge model has seen great success in raising awareness across the country," said Eric Buetikofer, UToledo director of military and veteran affairs.
Representatives from the UToledo Military Service Center, University Counseling Center, UToledo ROTC, the Army National Guard, the Lucas County Veterans Service Commission and the Toledo Vet Center will be at the event to provide information.
The 22 Push-Up Challenge started in 2013 when Veterans Affairs announced an average of 22 veterans committed suicide every day. The campaign was started to promote awareness of veteran suicide prevention.

The original "The Muppet show" (1976-1981) told the story of Kermit the frog, the manager of a theater, and his endless struggle to put on a weekly show. While dealing with the stars of the show and their eccentric star-like behavior, he must navigate all the behind-the-curtain drama in order to make sure the show goes on at all costs. Each episode featured a guest human star as well, who joined the regular crew in conversation and songs.
Muppets Main Characters
The leader of the group and the show's protagonist, sensible, pragmatic and wants nothing more than doing his job while avoiding the star drama around him as much as possible, which presented a real challenge to his serenity and aggravated nerves.
The house's star diva, Miss Piggy is certain she is destined to be a star, and will stop at nothing to get her way. While trying to resent an image of feminine charm, she is capricious and might fly into a violent rage when feeling insulted, including her trademark karate chop. During the show, her feelings towards Kermit and her consistent romantic advances were regularly shown, though he rebuffed her feelings. Later on, in films, Kermit returned her affections and even married her.

Muppets Characters
Gonzo is a multi-talented artist who performs outrageous daredevil stunts. Though an odd looking creature, Gonzo takes pride in his uniqueness and enjoys every adventure he goes on with the Muppets including the occasional space voyage.
Rowlf the Dog is the Muppet's resident piano player. One of the Muppets oldest characters, Rowlf rose to stardom by first plugging advertisements for his favorite dog-food brands on the original Muppets show. Rowlf the Dog is not the trusty Muppets sidekick always ready to help Kermit the Frog, Fozzie Bear, Miss Piggy, and the rest of the Muppets.
Animal is the wild drummer for the almost-legendary band, Dr. Teeth and The Electric Mayhem, who are the regular performers traveling with the Muppets. Animal is the official musical Muppet. Known for his outrageous style and unclear speaking voice, Animal is a crazed percussionist with three music style - loud, louder and loudest.
Pepe the King Prawn, lovingly known as Pepe, comes to the Muppets from Spain. Pepe moved to Hollywood to pursue his one true calling show business. Peep's strong spanish accent makes it difficult for him to be understood.
Not one to leave the Muppet Lab too often, Beaker is the accident-prone assistant to Dr. Bunsen Honeydew. Though often difficult to understand, due to his "Meep", Beaker is known among the Muppets as the one who always gets hurt.
When the Muppets made it big, they needed to hire a fool-proof security guard. Thus, Bobo the Bear became head of Muppets security.
Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and his assistant Beaker are the resident scientists of the Muppets experimenting away in the Muppets Lab. Bunsen is always eager to show off his latest scientific discoveries to the Muppets.
Fozzie Bear is the world's funniest—and only— stand-up comedy bear. From his beat-up hat to the "wocka wocka" that punctuates his punchlines, Fozzie is an "old school" comic. His jokes aren't always great, but they are delivered with heart and Fozzie's signature pazazz.
Miss Piggy is the ultimate diva, leading lady, fashion icon, star of stage, screen, and all media known and unknown in perpetuity throughout the universe. Miss Piggy has an appetite for the good things in life, including chocolate, jewelry, awards, and above all, her one true love, Kermit the Frog.
Kermit is the world's most famous frog, but he has never let international success go to his head. Arguably one of Jim Henson's most famous Muppet creations, Kermit the Frog has come a long way from his home, the swamp, to become one of TV's most beloved characters.

Борис Грішин розпочав займатися футболом у школі київського «Динамо», та розпочав виступи на футбольних полях у дублюючому складі київського клубу в 1962 році. Проте він так і не зіграв за основну команду київського «Динамо», й у 1964 році він став гравцем іншого клубу цього ж спортивного товариства — «Динамо» з Хмельницького, який грав у класі «Б». У складі хмельницької команди Грішин грав до кінця 1965 року. На початку 1966 року футболіст перейшов до іншої команди класу «Б» «Десна», щоправда за чернігівську команду грав лише до середини року, після чого повернувся до хмельницького «Динамо», у складі якого цього року став срібним призером першості УРСР серед команд класуі «Б». У складі «Динамо» грав до кінця сезону 1968 року, загалом зіграв у його складі 132 матчі, в яких відзначився 19 забитими м'ячами.

Song of the Week #48: Lacuna Coil "Spellbound"
This would be my first song of the week from the lovely (so I hear) country of Italy!
The first single from the new album, Shallow Life, is a stormer! Very melodic, very powerful, with Lacuna's trademark interplay between the male/female vocals. They even toss in an all too brief guitar solo (not all that common for LC) capped by a tasteful pick slide. While vocalist Cristina Scabbia is most talked about as the sexiest woman in metal, let's not overlook the most important factor – her incredible voice! It's always been the saving grace for me as Andrea (the male vocalist) is alright, but he's no match for Cristina.
What a killer opening guitar riff and the drum fill that comes in (and appears again driving into the guitar solo later) does a great job of propelling the song forward with dynamic intensity. Andrea (the male voice) delivers a deep, haunting verse which leads right into a semi-hard stop prior to Cristina's soaring vocal entry on the chorus. And we're off the races for a white-knuckle musical ride.
An excellent driving song! And the video is pretty decent too.
Turn it up and rock!
