Two of West Virginia's representatives, Congressman Ken Hechler and Congressman Harley O. Staggers, Sr. each introduced legislation in the 93rd Congress including thousands of acres of land in West Virginia for protection under the Wilderness Act. Both Hechler and Staggers proposed including the Dolly Sods (Tucker, Pendleton, and Grant Counties), Cranberry Glades (Pocahontas and Webster Counties), and Otter Creek (Randolph and Tucker Counties). In addition, Hechler supported inclusion of Laurel Fork (Pendleton County). On April 2, 1974,Congressman Hechler testified before the House Interior Committee in support of the four proposed wilderness areas as well proposals from neighboring states.
While the two member's bills were being delivered to committee for consideration, Congressman Staggers took the issue to his constituents, circulating a questionnaire to residents of the counties which would be included in the proposed wilderness areas and seeking their opinion. The survey's findings were delivered to the House Interior Committee as part of the hearing process and marked the first time a member of Congress had surveyed constituents on the issue of protecting areas under the Wilderness Act.
In the summer of 1974, the findings of the survey were made public. After the staff had compiled responses from over 1,000 constituents, the survey showed strong support for the proposed wilderness areas with the exception of Laurel Fork. Despite receiving overall support, the inclusion of Laurel Fork was highly unpopular with residents of Pendleton County who would be most directly impacted by its designation as wilderness.
The proceedings in Congress to expand the protections of the Wilderness Act to the eastern United States continued into the next year. At the beginning of the 94th Congress, the Eastern Wilderness Act was passed and signed into law by President Gerald Ford, declaring 16 new wilderness areas, including Dolly Sods and Otter Creek and adding several as "study areas" to be considered for inclusion at a later date. The Cranberry Wilderness was one of the "study areas" in the 1975 act and was officially designated as a wilderness area in 1983, along with Laurel Fork. Two additional wilderness areas, Roaring Plains West and Spice Run were given designation in 2009. Thanks to the efforts of Congressmen Staggers and Hechler, Senator Robert C. Byrd, as well as many others, West Virginia's natural landmarks have received due recognition and protection under the Wilderness Act and continue to contribute to the state's massive tourism and recreation industry.

Lance Kendricks Scouting Reports
* Click Here: ALL Scouting Reports for ALL Players!! *
Lance Kendricks of Wisconsin ~ 6.3/243
NFP's Wes Bunting on Lance Kendricks:
"Lacks ideal size for the position, but is an impressive motion man who can be moved around the offense and routinely create mismatches in the pass game. Exhibits a good initial burst off the line with his hand in the ground. Takes a positive first step into his routes, cleanly is able to slip defenders and accelerates quickly down the field. Runs well vertically, has the ability to consistently threaten the seam and looks natural adjusting to throws and plucking the football away from his frame.
Is an above-average route runner at this stage who exhibits the balance and body control to quickly get out of his breaks and accelerate away from man coverage. Has a tendency to start to drift into his routes and will show his breaks a bit early, but uses his frame well to shield defenders from the throw. Also, possesses a good feel for zone coverage, knows how to find soft spots and quickly get his head around in search of the throw. Demonstrates the coordination and body control to consistently adjust to the throw and displays soft hands when asked to reel in the tough grab.
Exhibits a willingness to block as a motion man, takes good angles into contact and can consistently kick out defenders on contact on the move. Now, isn't going to drive anyone off the football in the run game and is rarely run behind, but is athletic and long enough to quickly get around reach blocks and seal off the edge.
Impression: Looks like the next talented Wisconsin tight end to come out of the program. Lacks ideal size, but can be a tough cover in the pass game and knows how to get around blocks and seal in the run game. I don't think if he will ever be a legit starting "on the line Y" in the NFL, but he certainly has the ability to make his way onto the field and create plays in the pass game at a variety of positions."
More From Bunting on Kendricks:
"At 6-4 and 241 pounds, Wisconsin tight end Lance Kendricks possesses a nice blend of size, speed and athleticism down the field in the pass game. He does a great job getting down the seam, adjusting to the football and using his big frame to gain a step and come up with the tough catch.
However, what's even more impressive about his game is his ability to kick-out defenders and win in the run game as a move player. Kendricks offers an intriguing combination of body control, flexibility and power and does a great job going into motion, taking good angles toward his target and absolutely eliminating his man at the point.
Now, he does do a solid job as an in-line blocker as well, but as a potential move H-back type option, Kendricks can win for you not only in the pass game, but as a run blocker as well."
NFL Draft Scout on Lance Kendricks:
"Despite Kendricks' All-American and first-team All-Big 10 senior season (43-661-5), some scouts will discount his ability to be a playmaker at the next level because of his average speed and lean frame. His ability to stretch defenses with length, and underrated willingness to block, could earn him at least frequent usage in two tight-end sets at the next level -- if not a starting job.
Release: Gets off the line in a hurry, providing a legitimate deep threat down the seam. Adept at block-and-release (though strong linebackers can get him off his route), gets out into space on bootlegs. Sidesteps defensive ends and uses stop-go move to free himself of nickel backs and linebackers at the line. Will hop at the snap before moving at times when lined up in the slot. One-gear runner, though, without the breakaway speed to separate from NFL nickel backs and safeties off the line.
Hands: Has the hands of a former wide receiver, snatches passes away from his frame and tracks balls over either shoulder. Extends to bring down high passes and is quite adept going down and getting his hands underneath low throws over the middle. Has dropped a few passes during his career, needs to improve his concentration when hearing footsteps and make the grab before running upfield to be considered an elite prospect. Wins jump balls with nice vertical and length.
Route Running: His quickness and size gives offensive coordinators the flexibility to run him down the seam, over the middle, in the flat and down the sideline. Difficult for linebackers to stay with him over the middle and almost always has a height mismatch against defensive backs. Finds the soft spot in front of linebackers on crossing routes. Quick feet and fluid hips for cuts, though some out routes are rounded off. Aware of the sideline, grabs out routes then stops to proceed upfield.
After the Catch: One of the few tight ends in recent memory that has the speed and elusiveness to earn carries on reverses. Good straight-line speed (though not elite), body control and balance for the position. Catches-and-runs like a large receiver. Change directions in mid-stride and is able to cut inside oncoming defenders to avoid their tackles. Hangs onto the ball in traffic. Runs tougher than expected, carrying tacklers a few yards when possible, though he lacks great lower body strength and better defenders get low to win the leverage battle against NFL defenders.
Blocking: Gives good effort as a run blocker from the H-back or moving tight end spots, has better upper-body build than expected given his frame. Understands blocking angles to create rushing lanes. Walls off backside ends when in motion, can set his feet and anchor. Blocks inside from motion near the goal line, willing to make contact and keep legs churning to move his man back. Lacks the strength to block NFL ends in-line, however, and is shed by smaller, stronger defenders in the open field after initial contact because they knock away his hands. Crosses his feet at times when fighting off edge rushers from three-point stance, will struggle to recover at the next level.
Intangibles: Has taken over as leader among skill position players as a senior. Coaches lauded him for his preparation before their 2009 bowl game. Left fibula broken while blocking on run play in November 2008, returned for bowl game."
NFL Soup's Keet Bailey on Lance Kendricks:
"Lance Kendricks took over as one of the top tight ends in the NCAA, despite being in a run first offense at Wisconsin. He was a former four star recruit from King High School in Milwaukee. Kendricks was initially viewed as a wide receiver, but he began growing into his mold and became more physical. Kendricks should be a second or third round pick.
Kendricks split time with Garrett Graham a season ago, but has started for each of the last two seasons. Wisconsin always seems to produce great tight ends, and Kendricks is the next one to follow in those footsteps.
Kendricks is a tall, physical presence and an excellent red zone threat. He fights for the ball very well, and has soft hands, usually dropping very little. He is an aggressive player and a crisp route runner. His speed makes him a great option to stretch the field as a tight end, and he does a nice job of getting behind the linebackers and make plays after the catch. Kendricks gets nice separation, and isn't afraid to get physical in the middle of the field, although he is a bit on the light side for a tight end. He's a leader and was a team captain for two years.
He isn't the biggest tight end, being just around 240 pounds. He may play a bit of split end at times, as well as tight end, and is more of a 'tweener. Kendricks needs to become a better overall run blocker. He doesn't block well in the open field, and isn't strong enough to hold blocks against bigger lineman in the run game. He will likely put on a few pounds and work on blocking technique and getting stronger. He will need to work on locating the ball a bit more effectively as well as he will sometimes lose track of it.
Draft Range
Kendricks is a very special talent and he will be a guy to come off in the mid-late second round. Philadelphia, Atlanta, San Diego, and Carolina will be the likeliest suitors at the end of the second round, and beginning of the third. The latest he will be selected is pick 73 with Houston and Denver also selecting in that area in the early third round.
NFL Comparison: Aaron Hernandez"
Draft InSider on Lance Kendricks:
"Bio: Two-year starter awarded all-Conference and All-American honors as a senior. Totals last year included 43/663/5, after 29/356/3 as a junior.
Positive: Natural pass-catching tight end who is best in motion. Quickly releases into pass routes, comes back to the ball, and offers the quarterback a big target. Displays good eye/hand coordination, makes the reception away from his frame, and displays soft, strong hands. Nicely makes the catch in stride, adjusting backwards to grab the errant throw. Effectively uses his frame, boxing out opponents to come away with the ball. Bends his knees, blocks with leverage, and gives effort.
Negative: Displays minimal strength at the point of attack and has difficulty handling linebackers as a blocker. Mostly a one-speed tight end who does not consistently create mismatches in the secondary. Lacks great growth potential.
Analysis: Kendricks is one of the better pass-catching tight ends in the nation, but he has size and athletic limitations. He could be a productive second tight end in a system that consistently puts him in motion or occasionally lines him up in the slot and reduces his blocking assignments. Likely to be over-drafted and selected much earlier than his talents warrant due to the poor crop of tight ends this year."
SideLine Scouting on Lance Kendricks:
"Positives: Athletic... Average size... Good speed... Gets off the LOS quickly... Good short area quickness... Reaches top speed quickly... Can get separation... Good flexibility, body control and balance... Good receiver... Finds holes in zone coverage... Adjusts to the ball well... Good but inconsistent hands... Can stretch the field... Good receiver... Physical... Runs hard... Does not go down easy... Strong stiff arm... Will break some tackles... Breaks down reasonably well and can generally hit a moving target... Takes good angles... Plays with reasonably good leverage... Coming from a run-first program that has produced many quality tight ends in recent memory... Well-rounded player... Could also be considered as an H-Back, fullback and slot receiver... Selected All-Big Ten first team for the 2010 season.
Negatives: Does not look like a natural route runner and will tip his breaks... Makes some catches with his body... Inconsistent concentration... Adequate in-line blocker... Not very strong... Doesn't generate much power... Can be pushed back and can be driven off the ball... Rarely run behind."
Consensus Draft's Jeff West on Lance Kendricks:
"Strengths: Another in a long line of excellent Wisconsin tight end prospects (Travis Beckum, Owen Daniels, Garrett Graham). Long, lean-looking player with excellent athleticism. Former WR who still runs routes smoothly. Sells his blocks on play action and is able to get "lost" in a crowd. Gets off the LOS well and can get separation. Has good, soft hands for the catch and snatches the ball well. Excellent body control and can shield the ball from the defender effectively. Can be split out into the slot and can also operate out of the backfield. Willing, and surprising blocker. Can seal on the edge and can block on the move. Is an effective cut blocker. Not the strongest of TE blockers, but is better-than-expected for a guy who is primarily a receiving threat.
Weaknesses: Has built-up speed and isn't going to run away from anyone except for the slower DEs and LBs. Seems to suffer from lapses in concentration as he has good hands, but will drop catchable passes too frequently. A bit shorter than you'd like at TE and not the strongest of in-line blockers. Probably more of an H-back candidate at the next level, and fewer teams utilize an H-back than a true TE, limiting his opportunities. Isn't going to get many looks as a FB because he's not physical enough as a lead blocker and plays too upright.
Projection: Kendricks is a good athlete who is a solid receiving threat and a better blocker than many others his size. If he runs well at the Combine, he could really vault himself up the draft boards. Looks to be a solid third round selection in the 2011 NFL Draft."
Tool Box's Matt De Lima on Lance Kendricks:
"Lance Kendricks is one of the top senior tight end prospects heading into the 2011 NFL Draft. Kendricks possesses a lot of the tools necessary to have a quality NFL career. He's a big target -- at 6'4 -- with big shoulders and good speed. His blocking ability (while not his biggest strength) has been well-refined while at the University of Wisconsin. His college statistics don't jump out at you, but Wisconsin is a run-heavy team.
He can play out wide and has enough speed to create mismatches against linebackers in coverage. He had a breakout performance come in the 2009 Champs Sports Bowl with seven receptions for 128 yards. He also sprung two huge blocks on two plays, which led to Wisconsin's only two touchdowns of the game. Kendricks stood out and showed his full talent in the game to NFL scouts.
Kendricks tends to cradle catches into his body rather than catching balls with his hands. He makes up for this problem by having great body control and makes great adjustments to the ball in mid-air.
Given his speed, catching ability and above-average talent as a run-blocker, Kendricks projects as a second round pick in the 2011 NFL Draft."
Draft Bible on Lance Kendricks:
Going into his senior year, the 6-foot-4, 241-pound Lance Kendricks is back on the national radar as one of the tight ends on the John Mackey Award watch list. This comes on the heels of Kendricks' eye-opening performance (seven catches for 128 yards) against Miami (Fla.) in last December's Champs Sports Bowl in Orlando, Fla. In addition, Kendricks is one of six UW captains for 2010, joining Carimi, who's regarded as a first-round NFL draft choice. (Bscherer left the program last spring.)
UW tight ends coach Joe Rudolph, a former offensive guard for the program, likes the way Kendricks handles himself physically as a lead blocker for the tailback at the point of attack.
"He's about as tough as they come and he plays big," Rudolph said. "Boy, he's blossomed into a really good player. And you have to love his unselfishness, his greatest attribute. Ask him to execute 15 lead blocks in a row, he'd be happy to do it. Ask him to run 15 routes in a row, he'd be happy to do that. Whatever you ask him to do, he works his tail off." – Madison.com
PFW's Nolan Nawrocki on Lance Kendricks:
"A former receiver and track athlete who is still developing as a blocker, Kendricks plays strong for his size, has very sure hands and has the ability to become an every-down talent. He still needs to add bulk to his frame to handle matching up as a base blocker with NFL defensive ends, but he will work out very well in the weight room and has enough quickness and strength to get in the way and seal running lanes. He is tough, competitive and has a good feel for the game, especially when he touches the ball. He has a knack for sifting through traffic and could be very effective on bubble screens in a similar role as the Jets' Dustin Keller is used. Kendricks will need some time to mature, but the arrow is very clearly pointing up."
Fanatical FootBall Fiend on Lance Kendricks
When I evaluate any prospect, 1% of it derives from my own analysis of The Tape, and 99% of it is my evaluation of the evaluators: Those guys, quoted and linked, above, whose expertise DWARFS mine.
Lance Kendricks is an extraordinary Weapon in the Pass Game: He commands exceptional Navigational Skills, good Speed, tremendous Hands, outstanding Instincts, and phenomenal Processing Speed.
What's really surprising, though, is his passion, his tenacity, and his consistency in the Run Game as a Wing Back "Move" Blocker: Praise for his effectiveness and dedication in this aspect of the game is EFFUSIVE, as you can see.
Lance Kendricks is one of my few Priority Binkies. In a Game where Wing Backs ~ Tight Ends who often go into Motion to Block, but who are DownField threats, as well: A Super Hybrid ~ are changing the face of the Game: A Player who is truly effective as a Run Blocker and a Pass Blocker, and who also bring an explosive element to the Pass Game, brings chaos to a Defense's efforts to Defend.
Lance Kendricks is that rare Athlete, and for my money only Kyle Rudolph offer a more completely deadly Game.
SUPER Sleeper!!

What Was the Message of Greta Gerwig's Jewel?
'The Lady Bird' director sported a vintage necklace from Tiffany
The best jewels are not only beautiful, they also carry some symbolism for the women who wear them. Greta Gerwig's Golden Globes necklace was all that. The Lady Bird director's long-time stylist Cristina Ehrlich told me the backstory of the special design.
"Once we had decided on the black velvet Oscar de la Renta dress, we started to look for the right jewel." explains Cristina. "Greta knew she wanted something vintage."
With this simple directive, Cristina reached out to Tiffany. Among the jewels she reviewed from the great American firm was a vintage necklace from its Archive Collection. While the piece looked as though it had been made for Greta to wear to the event, it was conceived by a jewelry designer named Angela Cummings who worked at Tiffany from 1967 to 1983.

The necklace Greta wore was made in 1980. It is composed of 18K gold and set with 433 diamonds in platinum. The white metal is delicately engraved along the edges to echo the pattern of the yellow gold. Each one of the segments move in order for the jewel to lie naturally on the wearer.
"The powerful and ethereal design was inspired by a bird's wing," explains Cristina. In other words, it was a perfect symbol for the Lady Bird director who flew home with the Golden Globe award for Best Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy.

Whenever you access a URL on the Internet your Mac checks the address against a list of IP addresses stored in the hosts file. Normally your Mac doesn't find what it's looking for in the hosts file and quickly moves on to resolving the web address via the DNS (Domain Name System) server.
With a little tinkering you can use the hosts file to make sure your Mac doesn't resolve certain URLs via the DNS server. This is can be useful for blocking sites you suspect may be malicious or for locally testing websites whilst remaining offline.
Editing your hosts file requires using Terminal, and incorrectly editing the hosts file can have significant effects on how your Mac connects to the internet. So make sure you have a good idea of why you need to edit the hosts file before following this guide.
1. Open Terminal. You can either search for Terminal using Spotlight, or open in from your Applications -> Utilities folder. You'll see a window like this, though "macbook" will be replaced with the name of your Mac and "Mike" with your username.
Press the return key. Terminal will ask you for a password. Enter the Administrator password for your Mac. As you enter the password the characters will not appear on screen, this is a privacy feature included in Terminal, simply hit enter after you've completed the password and the hosts file will load.
1. Use the arrow keys to navigate below the last entry. Ignore the comments separated by # marks and any existing entries.
2. Enter the IP address and URL that you want the hosts file to map to. In this case I have told the hosts file to locally resolve the address "google.com" to the local IP address 127.0.0.1 (which will block me from accessing the site google.com). Use TAB to separate the IP address from the URL.
At this point you could use the hosts file to block sites that serve adverts, to resolve your own website to a local IP address, or for any other function.
3. Now you just need to save the changes. Press ctrl-o and Terminal will open the correct "File Name to Write" at the bottom of the window.
4. Press the return key to save the changes you've made to the hosts file. You can now exit this screen and return to the main Terminal window by pressing ctrl-x.
Before you changes will take place you will need to flush your Mac's DNS cache. You can do this from the main Terminal window you currently have open.
Press the return key and you will flush your DNS cache and push through the changes you have made to the way in which your Mac resolves IP addresses from URLs.
2. You can now close the Terminal window.
You have now opened, edited and saved the hosts file on your Mac. You have also made sure the changes have been put in place by flushing your Mac's DNS cache. If you need to make any more changes to the hosts file you can simply repeat this procedure.
Many thanks for a perfect and comprehensive guide. It all worked perfectly for this newbie!

Alexander Hamilton: Creating a more perfect…
Alexander Hamilton: Creating a more perfect union, Part 3
James Madison by John Vanderlyn.
Alexander Hamilton Statue at Weehawken NJ.
United States Constitution.
Alexander Hamilton as Secretary of the Treasury by John Trumbull.
By Daily Local | dailylocal@dailylocal.com |
PUBLISHED: July 26, 2016 at 8:43 a.m. | UPDATED: August 20, 2021 at 4:37 a.m.
As part of General Washington's 'family' during the American Revolution, the commander immediately recognized not only Alexander Hamilton's bravery, but his diverse talents in writing, organization and management. The mere fact that Hamilton had gone from abandoned orphan to the staff of the leader in the fight for independence was quite remarkable. So skilled was he in communications and the management of military affairs, it is now recognized that many of the letters to the Continental Congress and other parties signed by Washington from 1777- 1781 were actually written by Hamilton.
Throughout the Revolutionary War, representatives in Congress knew they needed a unifying document that would hold the nation together and focus their energy and resources to accomplish critical goals. The Articles of Confederation were first drafted in 1777 to achieve such a unified effort; they were finally ratified in 1781. Although the Articles provided a unifying theme that allowed the 13 colonies to survive in the struggle for independence, they were deficient in promoting an efficient, well functioning government for America. Well before the Articles were ratified, Alexander Hamilton recognized the many weaknesses and inadequacies within them. He repeatedly expressed the need for strong, centralized authority to successfully steer the course for the new nation.
Several great minds made significant contributions to its replacement- the U.S. Constitution. James Madison, George Mason, Richard Henry Lee, Edmund Randolph, Elbridge Gerry and Roger Sherman were among them. There were men at the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia who understood law, business, the powers of government, the natural rights of man, and the horrors of war, but there were was only one who had first-hand experience in all these areas. That man was Alexander Hamilton. While Madison was a brilliant legal scholar, Hamilton was the only person at the Constitutional Convention who had written eloquently about the struggle for independence and the need for a strong, centralized government who had also put his life on the line fighting to establish that government. Hamilton's extensive experience in the military, business, finance, interstate and international commerce, law, organization and management, along with his superb analytical, writing, and debating skills positioned him as a uniquely talented and innovative contributor in the deliberations.
When reviewing the essential participants in the process leading up to the creation of the Constitution, Hamilton and Madison stand among the most influential in framing the debate and in the final arguments for ratification. While James Madison is typically credited as the "Father of the Constitution", Alexander Hamilton was its guiding beacon. In a letter to James Duane written in 1780- when he was just 23, still serving as aide-de-camp to Washington, Hamilton displayed a remarkable grasp of the defects in the Articles and made numerous detailed proposals on how to resolve them. In this letter Hamilton shows that, seven years before the Constitution was created, he had a strong understanding of how governmental powers needed to be used, along with how to support those powers well before the debate over the concept of "implied powers" had begun. "The confederation too gives the power of the purse too intirely (sic) to the state legislatures. It should provide perpetual funds in the disposal of Congress… for without certain revenues, a government can have no power; that power, which holds the purse strings absolutely, must rule."
Even though America had won the Revolution, the United States was an economic basket case. The Articles had completely failed with respect to allowing the nation to pay its bills, issue debt, conduct commerce effectively and survive as an ongoing entity. The nation was about to dissolve in its first major financial crisis. Hamilton brought to the Convention a profound understanding that government is in many ways similar to a business. He knew that it must be run efficiently and effectively- or it will cease to exist as an ongoing entity. Among many other talents, Hamilton had a profound understanding of political economy- what makes human beings act for their own self interest- within a framework that is best for society.
We don't have transcripts of the proceedings from Alexander Hamilton's pen, but we can make an educated guess about his concentration in helping to craft the final document. Focusing less on states' and individual rights, Hamilton argued strongly for the supremacy of centralized government authority to resolve the most critical issues of the day, including the gargantuan government debt and generating revenue for operations. Without this emphasis and resolution, the nation would collapse- regardless of a Constitution. George Washington named Alexander Hamilton to the Committee on Standing Orders and Rules and the group which drafted the final document.
Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution focuses first on the crucial issue of exactly how the government would support its operations- and Alexander Hamilton's fingerprints appear to be all over it. Ten out of its initial 14 Clauses (71%) discuss issues which Hamilton argued for vehemently over more than six years before the delegates ever met. "The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence…" The importance of Section 8 cannot be overstated: without an ability to funds it numerous functions, there would be no government. After several months of raucous debate and 85 articles termed the Federalist Papers written by Hamilton, James Madison and John Jay supporting it, the founding document for the new nation was finally ratified.
Two years after Hamilton and the other delegates concluded their meeting in Philadelphia, President George Washington asked Hamilton to become the first Secretary of the Treasury. Washington had first requested respected financier Robert Morris to take the job, but Morris demurred, recommending Hamilton instead. Hamilton took office on a momentous date- September 11th- the same day he had aided Washington at the largest land battle of the war. Hamilton served Washington for five years as Treasury Secretary, making bold moves to pay down the colonial debt, get the nation's financial house in order, regulate commerce and establish a system to generate revenue allowing the government to function. While his moves were often criticized by Jefferson and others, Washington often agreed with Hamilton and moved forward with his recommendations. It is a testament to Hamilton's abilities that our most revered President trusted him so deeply. Through his policies and initiatives, Hamilton is truly the architect of the American financial system.
After serving his nation for so many years, Hamilton was shot during a duel with Vice President Aaron Burr at Weehawken, New Jersey on July 11, 1804. He died the next day. Hamilton was only 47 years old, yet had accomplished more than almost any man of his generation.
I have an indirect connection to Alexander Hamilton. I live just down the road from the Benjamin Ring House- Washington's headquarters during the Battle of the Brandywine- where Hamilton served the General during this important conflict. I often reflect upon the fire that burned so brightly in them 239 years ago in a cause that was so uncertain. I wonder if that fire even exists as I encounter kids who've graduated from high school who seem to know very little about their own heritage. Without Alexander Hamilton, we would not have the America we know today, a nation that has become the most successful and respected on Earth. As a long-time student of history, I am in awe of what Hamilton, Washington and other patriots accomplished more than two centuries ago. It is my fervent hope that people never forget what these men did… and that the fire will burn for generations to come. For all you have done for our country, I raise a salute. Thank you, Colonel Hamilton.

2018 release from the Canadian-American singer/songwriter. Run To Waters is Justin's fourth album overall and follows the success of Holly (2007), You I Wind Land And Sea (2010) and Ulysees (2014). Run To Waters has unfolded in three stages starting with the three song offering, High Tide released in October of last year and Low Tide, with three more songs this past February. The final piece includes all songs from the High Tide and Low Tide as well as four new ones to make a complete album that was produced by Chris Bond (Ben Howard). Run To Waters reflects his evolution from the youthful passion and funky, bluesy pop rhythms that permeated early songs like 'After Tonight', to a quieter, more contemplative sound that's just as exciting - and perhaps more lush. It's songs share a sunny, yet nostalgic vibe, while conveying the kind of intimacy that comes only through the understanding of experience.

Wärtsilä to supply major power plant to Mozambique - biggest gas fuelled plant ever to be installed in the country
13 December 2012 at 11:45 AM E. Europe Standard Time
Wärtsilä has demonstrated its capability to provide competitive and comprehensive turnkey power plants with outstanding operational efficiency and minimum environmental impact. Furthermore, Wärtsilä has excellent track record in project management and fast track delivery of power plants as well as operation and maintenance services.
Wärtsilä, a leading global supplier of flexible and efficient power plant solutions, has signed a contract to engineer, supply and install a major gas fuelled power plant to Mozambique. This will be the biggest gas power plant ever installed in Mozambique and second largest power plant running exclusively on gas engines to be installed on the African continent. In addition to the power plant itself, the turnkey contract includes the construction of a sub-station and a gas pipeline. The value of the power plant contract is EUR 138 million.
The contract has been signed with the joint venture Central Termica de Ressano Garcia, owned by Sasol New Energy from South Africa and the Mozambique state utility, Electricidade de Moçambique (EDM). The plant will be powered by a total of 18 Wärtsilä 34SG engines running on natural gas, with the gas being fed from the Pande and Temane gas fields. The power plant is scheduled for completion by May 2014, and the electricity produced will be sold to EDM. Once completed, the power plant will be an important part in the development of the power generation infrastructure of Mozambique.
The selection of Wärtsilä gas engine technology for this project has been based on a number of considerations. Notably, Mozambique is a country with considerable gas reserves but with a scarcity of water resources. Thus, Wärtsilä's industry leading gas engine technology that features closed-circuit cooling with minimal water consumption was a natural choice.
"There is rapidly growing demand in Mozambique for electricity, and Wärtsilä has demonstrated its capability to provide competitive and comprehensive turnkey power plants with outstanding operational efficiency and minimum environmental impact. Furthermore, Wärtsilä has excellent track record in project management and fast track delivery of power plants, which also were key considerations for them selecting us," says Vesa Riihimäki, President Power Plants, Wärtsilä Corporation.
Wärtsilä's presence in southern Africa is becoming increasingly significant, and is likely to strengthen further as the use of natural gas fuel continues to be developed. A new Wärtsilä gas power plant built for Sasol New Energy in Sasolburg, South Africa is currently in the final stages of installation.
As of to date, Wärtsilä has delivered 470 power plants to Africa with a total output of 5000 MW. Globally, Wärtsilä has delivered 4,600 power plants in 169 countries with a total generating capacity of close to 49 GW.

News that the State Department didn't allocate funding for Title VIII, which provides funding for research and language programs related to the study of Eastern Europe and Eurasia, is just the latest example that our government sees little value in knowledge about foreign countries. "In this fiscal climate, it just didn't make it," a US State Department official told RIA Novosti. Knowledge has always been a cornerstone of foreign policy and international relations. The primary mission of State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research, which administers the Title VIII program, after all, is "to harness intelligence to serve U.S. diplomacy." Once again, fiscal myopia has taken another step in undermining that truism.
From the foreign policy standpoint, this move just boggles the mind.
As an academic, it's just mind numbing.
As an American, the news of defunding is, unfortunately, not all that surprising.
Granted, this isn't the first salvo on Russia related funding programs. In 2011, Fulbright-Hays, which funds doctoral dissertations to Russia, Eastern Europe, Latin America, and Asia, had tocancel its competition because of Congressional cuts. Earlier this year, Congress defundedpolitical science grants from the National Science Foundation. This is part of a general pattern.
NCEEER will suspend any new Title VIII programming for Fiscal Year 2013 (October 1 2013 – September 30 2014). This suspension includes the National Research Competition, the Short-Term Travel Research Grant, the Hewett Fellowship, and the Indigenous Peoples Research Fellowship. At this point, current NCEEER Title VIII grant holders will not be affected. Questions may be directed to Dana Ponte, dana@nceeer.org.
The SSRC Eurasia Program has suspended the competitions for its Title VIII fellowships in 2013-2014. For further information, please contact the Eurasia Program at eurasia@ssrc.org.
This list will certainly grow in the coming weeks.
I strongly urge anyone who cares about this issue to write their Congressperson to put whatever pressure they can on the State Department to restore funding. You can find their contact information here.
For more information about the defunding, read the excellent Carl Schreck's article US Defunds Venerable Russian Studies Program in RIA Novosti. Carl has been the only journalist to report on this so far. And take note, he works for Russian not American media.

Q: Ansible multi hop design I would like to run an ansible playbook on a target host passing through multiple hosts. The scenario looks similar to the one depicted in the picture:

I partially solved  issue creating the ssh_config file in the Ansible project directory:
Host IP_HostN
        HostName IP_HOST_N
        ProxyJump Username1@IP_HOST_2:22,Username2@IP_HOST_2:22
        User UsernameN

and defining in the ansible.cfg in the Ansible project directory:
[ssh_connection]
ssh_args= -F "ssh_config"

The problem is that I need to insert automatically for each transient hosts and target host ssh username and password and I don't know how to automate this task. Moreover, python may not be installed on every transient node.

A: I found a reasonably good workaround. According to the scenario below:

we create an ssh tunnel until the transient host that can directly reach the target host. We also create a local port binding with -L flag:
ssh  -J user_1@transient_host1:port_1 -p port_2 user_2@transient_host2  -L LOCAL_PORT:TARGET_HOST_IP:TARGET_HOST_PORT

Then we can directly enter into Target Host using the local binding:
ssh user_target_host@localhost -p LOCAL_PORT

In this way, we can run ansible playbooks on the local host configuring ansible variables accordingly:
ansible_host: localhost
ansible_user: user_target_host
ansible_port: LOCAL_PORT
ansible_password: password_target_host

Q: How to pass NULL value from Unidac Query component in Delphi? When I am using StoredProc component in Delphi using
ParamByname('ParamName').Clear I'm able to send NULL value.
But how can I pass NULL value when using a Query component?
with Query do
begin
 SQL.ADD('exec d_upd_calc'+Quoted(EditCalc.Text));
end

In the above scenario I want to send NULL if the edit box is blank.
I am using Delphi 2010, Unidac with Sybase.

A: Even in Queries you can work with parameters:
Query.SQL.Text := 'exec d_upd_calc :myparam';
Query.Prepare;
Query.ParamByName('myparam').Clear;

And it's better to use parameters than to build the complete string, because you must not handle quotes and avoid security leaks via SQL-injection.

A: With Advantage DB I would do something along these lines:
var
  sqlText: string;

with Query do
begin
  if EditCalc.Text = '' then
    sqlText := 'exec d_upd_calc NULL' else
    sqlText := 'exec d_upd_calc '+Quoted(EditCalc.Text);
  SQL.ADD(sqlText);
end;

If the keyword is also NULL then this should work.
Does Quoted remove/escape any dangerous user input to prevent SQL injection? If yes then it's good. If not then it should.

Volume 3: Chapter 253 – The Flourishing New Generation 2/3
After the assassination of the saint failed, Blanche the War Princess snorted in displeasure.
"It can't be helped if it can't be done."
How would they fight against the new emergent power in the north? They still had to deal with the goblins too. It was truly a headache-inducing problem.
At this time, she was confused.
They were supposed to hold negotiations with the goblins after defeating them once.
That was how the Holy Shushunu Kingdom had done things until now, and it's always worked. But this method didn't work against them at all. It was a regretful thing, but with the negotiations having broken down, she had no choice but to acknowledge her faults.
She's been able to make the minor nations follow her as much as she wanted until now. She didn't want to change her methods, so the appearance of a coalition of minor nations behind her country was a troublesome existence.
They had to be destroyed. This was the stance of the Holy Shushunu Kingdom, and Blanche also fully agreed with it. The current situation existed only because the countries participating in the coalition carefully wove their schemes.
"If possible, I would like to have the soldiers of the minor nations, but…"
The coalition that proclaimed they will save the world… Blanche wondered if it would be possible to seize the initiative and get them to join her, but she just couldn't seem to organize her thoughts.
Saint Reshia Fel Zeal.
If things play out poorly, she might even influence the people of the Holy Shushunu Kingdom.
According to the information she's gathered, the faith surrounding the saint had spread so great it was akin to a curse. Nowadays, the soldiers and people of the minor nations even wanted her to be their king moreso than their current royalties.
The soldiers of the minor nations were fundamentally reserves. They were loyal soldiers who swore to protect their country despite knowing that they were much weaker than the major nations, and yet such people supported her to that extent.
Evidently, the saint was too dangerous to work with.
But the plan to remove her has already failed and organizing a large-scale attack with the army would expose their backs to the goblins.
Because of that there really was no other choice but to defeat the goblins first.
Fortunately, they haven't officially opened hostilities with the minor nations just yet. Peace can be regained once the goblins have been defeated. First, the goblins, and then them.
But putting that aside… Something had to be done about the lack of soldiers since her request for reinforcements has been rejected.
Dismina and Ramana may be minor nations, but their failure to participate left a big hole.
"Perhaps the heads of the officials from earlier ought to be returned to the king."
After ordering her feeble aide, she changed to a formal dress to meet the king. She wanted permission to go to Dismina and Ramana herself.
"How will the west be defended in your absence?"
On her way to the palace, the feeble aide asked her that, and she answered listlessly.
"I'll leave it to you. Use the slaves and dig some holes for the goblins."
"You mean to imitate the goblins?"
"We have to use what works."
"As you will."
The feeble aide, Mehran Le Coude, received the orders of the War Princess and began the construction of the trenches. The plan to nullify the advantage of cavalries progressed steadily. The Goblin King once built an encampment with trenches in front of it via Felduk. One glance at that was all Blanche needed to realize its usefulness, and she used the same plan to deal with the goblins.
At the same time, she pointed her sword(Valkyria) at the Kushain Believers.
She took out funds from the Ririnoie Household to pay the appropriate rewards through the guild and the special compensation to show appreciation for the soldiers that died. After that she put up another request. The young hero of the Kushain Believers, Vilan Do Zul. She didn't know if that was merely an empty reputation or the man actually had the ability to back his name up, but despite being reluctant to make a decision, she sent the people she trusted and exercised caution.
As she headed toward another battlefield, she steadily made preparations.
In the course of searching for the whereabouts of the War Princess, Pale received word that the War Princess left on a diplomatic errand to a neighboring country. As soon as she learned that, she immediately had her soldiers prepare.
"Just Felduk and Zaurosh-dono's cavalry will do. They don't have to be many either. Whatever number they can sortie with will do."
The goblins didn't understand why she was in such a hurry, but she didn't have the time to explain. She hurried them along and departed for battle with Gi Gu Verbena.
"We will prepare the battlefield to end this war. Please tell His Majesty to rest for the meantime."
After saying that, Pale led the soldiers like a gust of wind. Felduk had 2,000 soldiers, 300 cavalry, and 100 elven warriors. It was a small army.
The one who met them on the battlefield was Blanche's aide, Mehran Le Coude.
He was someone from the Sorcerer Cavalry (Mana Guard) and was discovered by the previous War Princess. He didn't have many soldiers under him. There were 1,500 slaves from the east, 1,500 soldiers from the Sorcerer Cavalry (Mana Guard), and his private army of 200.
His job was the construction of the trenches.
After receiving a detailed blueprint from the War Princess, he immediately set out to make it happen. He hasn't experienced that many battles just yet, but he has acquired plenty of experience as the aide of the War Princess. With the exception of the War Princess herself, he could be said to be the best commander of the Holy Shushunu Kingdom.
The two armies confronted each other across the encampment with trenches, but while they threw stones and cast spells at each other, they never truly clashed. Three days later, Pale ordered a retreat and split her army.
Even as they continued to play their role in this confrontation, Pale didn't forget to move the southern frontlines.
While their two armies were clashing, Aransain and Zailduk, who have been looking for an opportunity to move out all this time, were ordered to attack.
Their objective was to take Gi Jii's siege weapons to various cities and make those cities surrender. Zailduk picked out beasts that excelled in pulling heavy things to transport the siege weapons, while Aransain surrounded them and acted as their escorts.
They immediately put to use their siege weapons, but just when they were about to make a city fall, an order to withdraw from Pale arrived, and they had to leave.
Gi Ga Rax and Gi Gi Orudo were unhappy that she didn't let them finish the job when they were so close. They told her that through the messenger, and her response couldn't be terser.
"Tactics mustn't be leaked."
The imperial seal of the king, Black Sun(Alrod), was stamped onto the message, so as unhappy as the two goblins were about her response, they could only keep mum.
After that she continued to dispatch her forces to attack while the War Princess was away, but regardless which attack it was, it seemed she was never concerned with getting the enemy to surrender in the first place.

Quiz Show is an alternative rock, indie band from New Jersey. Quiz Show started out in 2015 as occasional, and decidedly brief, morning jam sessions that allowed friends to squeeze in a quick dose of often loud, concentrated creativity before getting caught up in their daily routines. Shortly thereafter ideas grew into songs with a unique sound that's hard to pin down, but if you had to, it might be best described as punk inspired alternative rock.
For its members, Quiz Show provides a fun, creative and collaborative outlet to wonder off their usual beaten paths. The group is excited about their new single "Almost Famous" out in January 2019! This is the eighth track in a series of singles written, recorded and released by Quiz Show since late 2017. Stay tuned for more new music in 2019 and upcoming shows in the NJ / NYC area.
Previously released titles available on most digital music platforms include: "Sell The Scene," "Dime a Dozen," "What If?," "Big Bank Theory," "Withstand," "Pom Pom Boy" and "Sound of Kissing." All Quiz Show tracks to-date have been recorded and mixed locally at Magic Door Recording in Montclair, NJ.
Hope you enjoy their music! If so, please request their songs on your favorite local radio stations, and help get the word out about @QuizShowBand on social media and anywhere else you share your love for music.
Send us a quick note and we'll get back to you as soon as we can.

Sports are not a cheap hobby. They are not just difficult on one's body but tougher on the wallet. If you want some good gear for your favorite sport, then you will require to either spend up or settle for an inferior brand, correct? Incorrect. The Internet has produced it possible to effortlessly discover several fantastic resources for inexpensive sporting goods. There are some fields in specific that seem to have thrived though.
People who like to create weblog posts can get paid in two various ways. A weblog can entice advertisers who will spend a charge to advertise on your blog. You can also write sponsored blogs for different businesses. For example, a company that makes baseball bats may love your weblog about baseball store. That company will pay you to write a evaluation about their item. Most of the time it will have to be a good review. However, there are some businesses who will permit you to be honest about your encounter with the product.
Sears is the perfect option for that person who needs things about the home; not only will they be able to get resources for their garage, they can add to their closet. Sears provides not only fantastic prices but something for the entire family. Check out their grills for the guy in your life.
So began the search for softball/baseball equipment stores. I thought we would go to some sporting goods shop, but my kids stated that was not the awesome way to do it. I should have recognized they would say the computer. Those children can't remain off the web. We battle about it all the time. It is a good thing though because that is how we talk to their father. Anyway, we went on line to find softball/baseball gear shops. We invested hours. I believe my children are obsessed.
To be the excellence sports players it is necessary to select the best sporting goods and add-ons and the supplier of them. I think lookup it on-line is the very best way. After lookup on Internet you will get numerous choices but to select the high quality provider of sports activities add-ons amongst them is extremely tough task.
My son and I arrived at the initial apply with his brand name new baseball equipment in hand. He experienced a brand new fire-engine crimson, titanium alloy bat. He had a shiny new silver batting helmet with protecting facemask connected. He experienced a brand name new royal blue baseball glove with the Nike swoosh emblazed on the back again. We were ready. Of course, the first thing we fathers do on arriving at the initial apply is to "size up" the other kids. Who is heading to be the competitors for my boy? My son has always been big for his age, so he was an entire head taller then some of the other children there. Oh sure. We were ready.
The first bats produced for the activity had been produced of wood. While some of the modern working day types are still built of wood, some are also produced from aluminum alloy and aluminum lined with graphite or titanium. There are also numerous composites that are used in the building of this object.
Once you discover the importance of safety, you will not regret your money that is spent on them. This can be of greater importance in normal baseball (fastpitch). You ought to know that polyethylene (or polycarbonate) type shells are produced to resist an influence due to fastballs.
There are many other injuries associated with baseball. Like any other sport, baseball also demands a great deal of apply before you can excel at it. And this practice indicates a great deal of accidents dashing in. To steer clear of this, you need to have a skilled mentor who can manual you on the complete time that you have to invest on apply, and also the proper posture.

Watch Now: X Games Skiers Hit the Backcountry
Teton Gravity Research is back yet again with another pow-worthy in-house film.
Last week, Teton Gravity Research released its teaser for "Deviate," an athlete project devoted to ripping in the backcountry. Today, the full film premiered online.
"Deviate" is the first backcountry project from legendary shredders Torin Yater-Wallace and Jossi Wells. Ages 25 and 30, both are freestyle skiers who have racked up their fair share of fame in front-country competitions like the X Games. (In 2011, Yater-Wallace became the youngest medalist in Winter X Games history at age 15. In 2014, Wells skied in the Winter Olympics.)
But in this film, they're leaving the competition element behind. In "Deviate," the duo rides alongside industry legends like Birk Irving, Bobby Brown, and McRae Williams. It's all about smiles and shred.
The film is high on stoke: stoke for fresh tracks, stoke for snowmobiles, and stoke for earning their turns. The teaser is short and sweet, but the full film premiered on TGR TV on Friday, Dec. 11. If you don't have TGR TV, you can now watch it here for free.

The Mission of BOBS is to establish national standards, to promote and facilitate their implementation. There are two kinds of standards, namely the voluntary and compulsory standards (Technical regulations). These standards differ primarily in their implementation processes.
Whereas Stakeholders have a choice in implementing the former, they do not have the same liberty with the latter. That means compulsory standards are enforceable by Law whereas voluntary standards are not and this enforcement of compulsory standards is provided for in the Standards Act, Section 13, which states that any one violating a compulsory standard is committing an offense.
Section 14 of the same Act provides for Fines and Penalties for such offenses and it states that, anyone found guilty of violating a compulsory standard is liable for imprisonment of 3 years and a fine of P3000.00.
It should be noted that Botswana is a member state of World Trade Organization (WTO), so BOBS takes into account the demands of WTO Technical Barriers to Trade (WTO-TBT) Regulations and Code of good Practice during the process of establish compulsory standards.
The WTO-TBT Regulations and Code of good practice among others provides the Criteria for establishing and implementing technical regulations, and also cautions against making them unnecessarily too stringent for fear of the resultant non-compliance and the implications of such as well as creating Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT).
The Compulsory Standards Unit (CSU) within BOBS is responsible for the enforcement of implementation of compulsory standards and the implementation of Standards (Import Inspection) Regulations (Botswana Product Conformity Programme).

Q: Android HttpURLConnect POST Stream Size I am trying to follow the tutorial here https://developer.android.com/reference/java/net/HttpURLConnection.html
to make a post call in android. The issue I am having it I am not sure how to write the post call to the http connection.
URL url = new URL("https://chart.googleapis.com/chart");
            HttpURLConnection client = null;
            client = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
            client.setRequestMethod("POST");

            client.setRequestProperty("cht", "lc");
            client.setRequestProperty("chtt", "This is | my chart");
            client.setRequestProperty("chs", "300x200");
            client.setRequestProperty("chxt", "x");
            client.setRequestProperty("chd", "t:40,20,50,20,100");
            client.setDoOutput(true);
            client.setChunkedStreamingMode(0);

            OutputStream outputPost = new BufferedOutputStream(client.getOutputStream());
            outputPost.write(client.getRequestProperties().toString().getBytes());
            outputPost.flush();
            outputPost.close();

            InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(client.getInputStream());
            Log.d(TAG, "Input" + in.read());
            client.disconnect();
        } catch (MalformedURLException error) {
            //Handles an incorrectly entered URL
            Log.d(TAG, "MalformedURL");
        } catch (SocketTimeoutException error) {
//Handles URL access timeout.
            Log.d(TAG, "Socket Timeout");
        } catch (IOException error) {
//Handles input and output errors
            Log.d(TAG, "IOexception");
        }

The tutorial uses a custom method to write the stream but I still run into writing an unknown number of bytes for the body of the POST.

A: Questions to consider:

*

*Does the Google chart API require information to be sent via the header variables?

*Does the Google chart API require information to be sent in the body?

*Is the information in the body being sent in the correct format?

*Missing Content-Type header variable

*Why is the same data being set in the header and body?

After reading the Google Chart Guide the following code will successfully make a POST request to the Google Chart API and retrieve the image as bytes.
To write the post data see the following line in the getImage code sample: con.getOutputStream().write(postDataBytes);
Take note of the following line to set the post size: con.setRequestProperty("Content-Length", String.valueOf(postDataBytes.length));
  public byte[] getImage() throws IOException {
    URL obj = new URL("https://chart.googleapis.com/chart");
    HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) obj.openConnection();

    // Store the post data
    Map<String,Object> params = new LinkedHashMap<>();
    params.put("cht", "lc");
    params.put("chtt", "This is | my chart");
    params.put("chs", "300x200");
    params.put("chxt", "x");
    params.put("chd", "t:40,20,50,20,100");

    // Build the post data into appropriate format
    StringBuilder postData = new StringBuilder();
    for (Map.Entry<String,Object> param : params.entrySet()) {
        if (postData.length() != 0) postData.append('&');
        postData.append(URLEncoder.encode(param.getKey(), "UTF-8"));
        postData.append('=');
        postData.append(URLEncoder.encode(String.valueOf(param.getValue()), "UTF-8"));
    }

    byte[] postDataBytes = postData.toString().getBytes("UTF-8");

    con.setRequestMethod("POST");
    con.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
    con.setRequestProperty("Content-Length", String.valueOf(postDataBytes.length));
    con.setDoOutput(true);

    // post the data
    con.getOutputStream().write(postDataBytes);

    // opens input stream from the HTTP connection
    InputStream inputStream = con.getInputStream();

    // read the data from response
    ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    byte[] byteChunk = new byte[4096]; // Or whatever size you want to read in at a time.
    int n;

    while ( (n = inputStream.read(byteChunk)) > 0 ) {
        baos.write(byteChunk, 0, n);
    }

    inputStream.close();
    return baos.toByteArray();
}
