In Parliament, Congress Says This Is What BJP Is Best At: Highlights
Feb 05, 2018 14:30 (IST)
Amit Shah spoke about the Swachh Bharat Mission
Under Swachh Bharat, one of the tasks the government took up was to build toilets.
Women in rural and even in certain urban areas had to face the humiliation of defecating in open.
Governments in the past too, had many schemes to clean India, but what had been done. It was all on paper. But finally this government took the action needed and constructed 7 Crore toilets.
Today, instead of women worrying about going out in the open to relieve themselves, they have the confidence to go out and focus on a career and make the country and their families proud of their achievements.

'Mars' necklaces feature a chunky geometric silicone pendant on an 80cm satin cord. The cord is soft and strong and the clasp is designed to separate if baby pulls too hard on the necklace.
Our teething and nursing necklaces are a stylish and practical addition to any mums wardrobe. They are comfy to wear, washable and chewable making them very baby friendly. When worn by mum they work as a distraction for baby, to fiddle with and chew, to soothe sore gums and keep little fingers busy and out of mums hair.


I had the idea of doing this yesterday. Because I feel like complaining, I guess, here are five things I hate about movie blogging (or blogging in general), but because I'm also addicted to blogging, here are also five things I love about it. There isn't any real purpose to that, but I'm sure some of you can relate to some of these things, and it's been a long time since I haven't written something that wasn't for a blogathon (aside from my numerous top lists).
Honestly, I never really liked that. While some bloggers describe the movie from A to Z in order to give and in-depth analysis of it (and that is perfectly fine), the objective of my blog mostly is to explain why I love a movie and convince people to see it. So, obviously, I would not tell the whole story (but a few exceptions, if you look at my analysis of Marlon Brando's character in The Men). So, a small synopsis is in order. The problem comes when the movie is kind of complicated and I feel like I have to tell a lot, so people will understand what it is about, but, in a way, I don't want to tell too much either. A real dilemma, but there are things worse than that in life!
This doesn't often happen to me, but it sometimes does, most likely on blogathon seasons. I sometimes subscribe to a blogathon with some movie as a subject, but when the time comes to write about that film, well, I realise that, despite liking the movie, I haven't much to write about it or I'm not motivated enough. This doesn't happen often, but here is an example: When Cary Grant Became Invisible… Topper (1937). Luckily, we have the Buster Keaton Blogathon hosted by Lea from Silent-Ology: I always have a ton of things to say about Buster Keaton's films!
While writing the article and choosing pictures for it is a real entertainment (otherwise I wouldn't be blogging…), the correction always is the boring part. The main reason is the fact that English is my second language. Well, I'm going to an English university, so I'm obviously writing much more often in English than French now, but it still remains my second language and my French writing is still better than my English one. So, the job is obviously harder, especially with long texts. I try as much as possible to write articles without mistakes by using correcting tools and all this, but I know I'm missing a lot of them and it will probably be the case for this article too… And believe me, I do spend considerable time correcting. I, by the way, want to thank most of my faithful readers for always having been indulgent on that level.
Because Facebook is limited, there isn't anything better than blogging to share your love of films. While I am studying films and have to write about them at school, there's always a ton of restrictions that make the process never completely amusing. But, on the blogging platform, you are free! Free to write what you want, the way you want to. The worst you can get from it is a nasty comment or a spam, but you are freeee to delete them too! 🙂 Blogging is all about fun.
Well, I guess at one point discovering a new movie can be like "discovering" a new colour haha!
That's what I really like about writing and reading: it's an occasion for you to finally spread the word about a not too well-known film but that you think people should discover. As an example, I have this review of Give Us the Moon. I'm kind of a missionary for that film!
And don't forget to subscribe to my Ingrid Bergman Blogathon!
I love them because they are the perfect way to discover blogs and increase the popularity of your own. I think, without them, I would probably still just have 20 followers and I'm sure I'm not the only one! 😉 Blogathons are also a way to have ideas on what to write about. It creates material on your blog, which is always a good thing.
I'll be curious to know your opinion about that and what are the things YOU love and hate about movie blogging! You can share them in the comments section or simply create a new post like I did. Of course, if you do so, please share the link with me in the comments section of this post!
← Top of the World: Olivia de Havilland Turns 101!
I can't imagine how hard it must be to write a blog in your second language. I could barely write papers for my French classes, let alone a whole blog!
I totally sympathize regarding blogathon hosts who don't read your work or posts that don't get any love. On an average post, I spend at least 8 hours watching the movie, taking notes, taking screenshots, putting it all together, and doing a final edit. It kinda hurts when you feel like no one appreciates it. One of my most popular posts is a reminder about my Vincente Minnelli blogathon last year. Another popular one is when I accepted a blog award. I can't even explain it.
It's cool that we were able to meet! And in Prague of all places!
And you know what? We were in Prague EXACTLY at that time of the year last year! 🙂 Well, about the language, Canada has two official languages: English and French so, even if Quebec is the French province, many write and talk English too. 🙂 I mean, it is probably easier for me to write in English than it is for you to write in French. 8 hours! Wow! I never really calculated how much time I spend on an article. I guess it depends!
It seems crazy that it was just last year — feels like forever ago!
I never really noticed how many hours either until I had to put my blog down as part of my writing experience for a job application. Blog writing can get pretty intense, haha!
Yes to 1,2,3, and 5 on the hate list! And unfortunately I'm guilty of not commenting on everyone's entry for my Carole Lombard Blogathon. I was going through a bit of a slump and kept forgetting and now it's been so long it just feels awkward. And I forget a lot to comment on my host's post. I always thank them for hosting though. I'm trying to do better, even to the point of commenting on ones from last year.
It would almost be nicer to have Blogathons announced one week in advance instead of two months. Then you could sign up and immediately start on your post while you're excited.
I can't even imagine writing a post in another language, especially for non-English writers as it's rules are so crazy.
Don't feel bad about not reading all the Carole Lombard's entry, that really was not my intention! 😉 As I've said I rarely encountered hosts that didn't read the blogathon posts and believe me I was not thinking of you when I wrote that! 🙂 I think the main reason why people announce their blogathons so much in advance is to have "priority" over other blogathons. You know when you invite someone to participate to your blogathon, but he or she can't because he/she has already subsribed for a blogathon on the same date and doesn't have time for another. But I agree people might be much more motivated if they had to immediately start working on it.
I can sympathise with the feeling that no-one reads your posts. I seem to get single figure views despite hundred of blog followers and social media promotion with maybe one or two likes if I am lucky, while everyone else gets a dozen or more likes complete with comments too!
As for plot synopsis, I think it is important that you tell people what the film is about otherwise they won't know what your are referring to – context is everything. Blow by blow details of the plot is a no-no otherwise there is nothing left for the reader to see if they are intrigued by your review to watch the film themselves.
I hate reviews that just wax lyrical with pretentious prose without mentioning the plot once. Imagine if someone just came up to you and starting talking about something with no introduction or lead in to his dissertation? You'd be confused right? Treat your writing like you would a conversation and you have them onside from the onset!
thanks for your feedback! Yes I always give a brief synopsis of the film, I know it's important. But I just don't know how to start it sometimes!
Cosign to everything here. I would also add people correcting typos. I don't mind something big like I got a character's name wrong, but when it's something like an apostrophe in the wrong place, that just drives me nuts.
I perfectly understand that! Annoying as hell!
Such a great post! I cannot agree more with you about blogathons. Now, I am addicted to them, and also think they are a great way to discover other bloggers who are interested in the same stuff as you.
My least favorite thing about blogging is that when I write a post in my head it's complete in like ten minutes, but when I actually sit down to type it up it takes hours!! Oh and all the editing takes forever. Adding media (pictures, videos) gives people a visual for what we are writing about but I'm so slow at it, especially if those images need to be re-sized or sources cited. But I do love "meeting" new people and sharing the things I love with others!
Oh yes I perfectly understand that!
I agree with many things. Summarizing is OK for me, and I always try not to give spoilers. Blogathons are now everything my blog relies on – I don't know where I'd be without them! And there are many good and weird surprises along the way – like when you write a post quickly, without inspiration, and receives a lot of good feedback. And, of course, meeting new nice people who like the same movies as you is priceless.
I know just what you mean! I imagine every writer can relate to this. Congratulations on writing so well in your second language! You do much better than a lot of native English-speakers I know. I read your under-acknowledged article. It's lovely.
I agree with everything you said. I am often late commenting on articles that people submit into my blogathons, but that's because I was flooded with assignments. Otherwise, I do comment on the entries, even if I'm really late. I just apologize for being so late.
As for those bloggers who spoil the movie by delving into the whole film, I don't think that's necessary. I always give a brief synopsis. I prefer to talk about the background history of a film. Unfortunately, there are so many bloggers around who just writes the whole plot in great detail and don't provide any other information.
Now, the thing that you have mentioned and what I dislike the most is when I receive very little comments. I spend hours writing blog articles. I watch the film first, and then I spend hours or a few days on an article. Once I complete the actual writing process, I start editing and adding photos. I'm always excited to finally publish my article, but then disappointment starts to set in when I receive little comments. I share my post on Facebook in the hopes of garnering a response, but I still get very little. It hurts and upsets me big time.
Thanks for your comment Crystal! Yes, even if you don't read the article right away I know you will eventually! I indeed don't like it either when someone just tells the whole story of a film without adding any other information or interesting analysis. If I want to know the whole story of a film I will just… watch it, you know! But if the person gives us informations, opinions, etc while telling us the story from A to Z, that's better. I must admit however I might not read the end of the article and try to forget the spoilers I might have read if I have never seen the film before.
I discovered fb is not the best place to have feedback on article. People on fb prefer to check 10 posts/minute instead of taking 10 minutes to just read one lol. Just look at my Wonderful World of Cinema FB pages. I share photos that get over 200 likes, which is nice, but the first mission of this page is to promote my blog and the articles. However, when I share an article, I rarely get over 50 likes. Of course it has improved a lot with the years and that's nice. But out of these 50 likes not many people comment so I don't know if they actually read the article or if they just liked the post because they like the film introduced by the article. But sometimes I have good surprises, like this article on Ageism and Classic Films. I shared it on fb like I usually do and I don't think I ever got that much feedback from fb users.


Our Bible reading is 1 Samuel 6-10 and I plan to post a brief devotional commentary later today. Until that time, I encourage you to study this crossroads in Israel's history when God's people, rejecting His rule and judgeship over them, demand a king like the other nations.
In a statement of fact: Be careful what you ask for…You may get it!

Nude-photo scandal in U.S. Marines
Monday, 6 March, 2017 - 10:45
The Defense Department is investigating reports that some Marines shared naked photographs of female Marines, veterans and other women on a secret Facebook page, some of which were taken without their knowledge.
The photographs were shared on the Facebook page "Marines United," which had a membership of active-duty and retired male Marines, Navy Corpsman and British Royal Marines. Along with identified female military members were photographs of unidentifiable women in various stages of undress, and included obscene comments about some of the women, officials said.
The Naval Criminal Investigative Service is now investigating. The photographs have been taken down, officials said.
Marine Corps commandant Gen. Robert B. Neller on Sunday refused to comment directly about the ongoing investigation. "For anyone to target one of our Marines, online or otherwise, in an inappropriate manner, is distasteful and shows an absence of respect," Neller said in a statement.
It was not immediately known how many active-duty Marines and other service members were involved or are under investigation. A Marine Corps official, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss personnel matters by name, said at least one government contractor had been removed from his job after he posted a link to the photographs.
In response to the report, Sgt. Maj. Ronald L. Green, the top enlisted man in the Marine Corps, said: "These negative behaviors are absolutely contrary to what we represent."
The investigation was first reported by the Center for Investigative Reporting. The activity was revealed by The War Horse, a nonprofit news organization run by Marine veteran Thomas Brennan.

Covina junior Aaron Rodriguez got off to a quick and a high start in the pole vault this year, with his 14-00 jump in the early season Covina Five Way meet in February.
The jump was not a complete surprise – he was the Frosh/Soph winner at the SGV Champs last year with a then PR jump of 13-02, and advanced to CIF after a third place finish in the Valle Vista League.
This past week on his home runway in the Northview dual meet – he took it even higher with a 14-09 jump for the win. That jump ranks him equal 43rd All-Time San Gabriel Valley, and it makes him our male Athlete of the Week.
The week saw six more athletes earn All-San Gabriel Valley honors, and nine athletes who had already reached the All-SGV standard improved their marks.
Osvaldo Cervantes picked a pretty big stage to open his 2018 season – the Sweepstakes race at the massive Woodbridge Invitational. But he kept his head (and his feet!) to finish 40th in a lifetime best 14:45 – #3 in the SGV so far, and that makes him our Athlete of the Week for Week 3.
Arroyo senior Noah Hibbard is our first SGV Athlete of the Week for 2018, on the strength of his dominating win at the Rosemead Invitational. His 14:28 at Rosemead was the fastest ever for a SGV athlete on that course.
Noah is the defending Mission Valley League champ, and finished 14th at last year's CIF-SS Div. 2 Finals. His win on Saturday was nearly a minute faster than his time there last year, so both he and his team have set their sights much higher for 2018.
Walnut senior Chloe Arriaga has been named the San Gabriel Valley News Group's girl Athlete of the Week, on the strength of her dominating win at last Saturday's Fastback Invitational.
Chloe and the Mustangs race next on Saturday at the Rosemead Invitational.
2018 was a solid year for our boys as the top athletes and the top teams were tightly bunched in the final 2018 All-San Gabriel Valley Track & Field lists.
Four boys each earned All-SGV honors in three events: Chuma Azinga (San Marino, Sr) – 110 hurdles, High Jump & Triple Jump; and Ryan Cowgill (Claremont, Jr), Xian Shively (Poly, Sr), and Noah Hibbard (Arroyo, Jr) each in the 800m, 1600m & 3200m. But Noah was the only athlete to also place in the California Top 100 in each his three All-SGV events, so he earns top honors for 2018.
Monrovia bunched performances in the sprints, hurdles & relays to led all schools with 9 All-SGV performers and relays, followed closely by California, Claremont and La Serna with seven each.
The All-San Gabriel Valley Standard is 98% of the 100th best mark achieved in California in each event the previous year. An average of 8.3 boys met the standard in each event, while 2.8 per event ranked among California's 100 best.
The SGV's best event was the 800m, where a whopping 19 boys earned All-SGV status, with five ranking in the State 100.
Arcadia senior Stephanie Yen who will be attending UCLA this Fall, was 2018's top All-San Gabriel Valley performer, meeting the All-SGV standard in five events: 200m, 100 hurdles, 300 hurdles, Long Jump and Triple Jump.
Stephanie's marks in the long hurdles and long jump also ranked in the California Top 100 for 2018, and the mark in the latter event, 18-04.50, leaves her ranked #28 on the SGV All-Time Performers List.
Bonita led all schools with 13 All-SGV performers and relays, followed closely by Arcadia and Claremont with twelve each.
The All-San Gabriel Valley Standard is 98% of the 100th best mark achieved in California in each event the previous year. An average of 6.6 girls met the standard in each event, while 3.8 per event ranked among California's 100 best.
Our girls' best event was the 3200m, where 14 girls met the standard, with 7 ranking in the State 100.
The girls of the SGV had an outstanding League Finals week with twelve All-Time Performances. Even more astoundingly, four of those twelve came in the 300 hurdles, and three came in the same race, with two from the same team!
Friday's Rio Hondo League Final was the site of that historic race, where three of the seven finalists achieved All-Time results. Tops was 100 hurdles leader Syndey Mosley (Sr, Monrovia) – her 44.99 was a 1.4 PR and makes her #29 A-T SGV.
She was followed by two South Pasadena athletes – Alexis Mora (Jr) – 45.18 (1.50 PR) and Kate Kutzer (So) – 45.49 (a nearly 2 second PR), and they now rank #36 & #42 respectively on the All-Time lists. And this great race makes these three girls our collective Athletes of the Week.
Week 11 saw 38 athletes and relays meet the 2015 All-San Gabriel Valley Standards for the first time, and 20 others improve on their marks.
Still getting caught up after the rush of SGV meet week, we want to make sure to take note of the top performances leading up to the week.
The Mt.SAC Relays saw a rash of fast sprint performances, but almost all of them were considerably wind-aided. Damien's Zach Shinnick and Thaddeus Smith and Diamond Ranch junior Daniel Stokes – the SGV's top 2015 dashers all ran very well.
Stokes won the Seeded heats of the 100 & 200, defeating Smith in the 100, while Shinnick was 5th in the Invite 100 and Thaddeus was 2nd in the Invite 200.
The night before, SGV 800 & 1600 leader Dillon Beckum (So, Bonita) showed his range by finishing 4th in the Invite 3200 in 9:16.98 – a probable school record.
The only All-Time performance that came outside the SGV Champs covered above was Zach Shinnick's 47.85 in the Los Osos dual meet. This was a new best for Zach, but he remains #17 All-Time SGV.
Here is the updated 2015 All-San Gabriel Valley List list for the boys. 120 athletes and relays have exceeded in the the standard for the 16 events, an average of 7.5 per event. We still don't have a thrower who has made the standard, but after the amazing 1600 at the SGV, 16 boys have earned All-SGV honors in that event.

Russell, Majors & Waddell – Transportation in the Old West
Pony Express Plaque in San Francisco, California.
Russell, Majors and Waddell, a freighting and staging firm, first based in Lexington, Missouri, was a partnership between William Hepburn Russell, Alexander Majors, and William B. Waddell.
Freighter on the Plains
Getting its start in 1854 to supply military posts in the American West, the company played a significant role in the history of transportation in the Great Plains. It would later operate various transportation and communications services, including stagecoach services, private express mail service, and the brief operation of the Pony Express in 1860 and 1861. In 1862 the partnership's stagecoach operations, which retained value after the collapse of the rest of the company, were bought out by Ben Holladay and the company ceased to exist.
The founding of the partnership was rooted in the U.S. Army's need for an efficient means of transporting military supplies between a new depot in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and six new army posts in New Mexico Territory, which were established at the end of the Mexican-American War in 1848.
William Hepburn Russell
Lexington, Missouri, businessman William Hepburn Russell had made a fortune by taking financial risks early on. By the 1850s, he had already had a hand in two railroads, banks, land speculation, and a couple of other businesses. In 1850, he entered into a partnership with a man named James Brown to ship military goods to Santa Fe. Their partnership flourished until November 1850 when Brown was stricken with typhoid fever and died the next month. In 1853, Russell partnered with another Lexington, Missouri businessman named William B. Waddell to form a wholesale firm to again ship military supplies. Waddell & Russell was soon hauling military supplies by wagon train to Fort Riley, Kansas, and Fort Union, New Mexico Their strongest competitor was Kansas City freighter, Alexander Majors.
In 1854 the War Department eliminated awarding yearly contracts to freighters in favor of two-year contracts and the company awarded the contract would freight supplies from Fort Leavenworth, Kansas to all military posts in the West and Southwest. The new contract would net huge profits but required a large outlay of money upfront. Rather than continuing to compete with Alexander Majors, the two firms merged into Russell, Majors, and Waddell in December 1854. On March 27, 1855, the new firm signed a contract with the government to freight supplies for two years. It was the largest freighting contract in history at the time. A month later, they relocated in Leavenworth, Kansas, and invested some $400,000 in offices, warehouses, a blacksmith and wagon shop, and a store for their employees. In addition to shipping military freight, the company was also busy transporting civilian goods on a large scale.
For two years, the company turned huge profits. However, their success would begin to spiral in 1857. At the outbreak of the 1857 Mormon War, the quartermaster at Fort Leavenworth requested that Russell, Majors, and Waddell move some 2.5 million pounds of freight to Salt Lake City, Utah. Though the request far exceeded the company's contract and was a risky venture, they didn't want to jeopardize its position as the chief army contractor and agreed to haul the freight. To fulfill the request, they borrowed heavily, anticipating payment of the goods after delivered, by the government. However, when the company's 52 wagons arrived in Utah Territory, the Mormons attacked the huge caravan. The company's loss of $494,762.61 exceeded two years' worth of profits and they were never reimbursed by the U.S. Army.
Pike's Peak Express at Leavenworth, Kansas
Regardless of the loss, the company took in Utah, it continued to bid on government contracts; as these contracts were its main livelihood. Though the company continued to freight supplies to the western forts and to Santa Fe, New Mexico, they sank deeper into debt. A series of transactions over the next few years, including Russell's insistence in developing the Leavenworth and Pikes Peak Express, continued to erode the partners' finances. In the spring of 1858, the firm began freighting from Nebraska City, Nebraska on a government contract to transport all provisions for all western forts. The supplies were brought up the Missouri River by steamboat and then taken out by wagon train. Part of this agreement was to move their headquarters to Nebraska City.
Stagecoach Rules
In 1860, despite growing financial trouble, Russell created the firm's most enduring legacy by convincing his two reluctant partners to support the establishment of the Pony Express. As a result, the firm, once again, won the government mail contract, which Russell was sure would save them from falling into bankruptcy. The Pony Express began operations on April 3, 1860. However, it too would be a failure, losing upwards of $1,000 a day.
That same year, Russell found that he could no longer honor his financial obligations and became mixed up in a scandal involving Secretary of War John Buchanan Floyd and Godard Bailey, a clerk for the Department of Interior. Through a series of illegal transactions, money had been obtained from the Indian Trust Fund. Russell and others were indicted in the scandal, effectively ruining the reputation of the firm.
This affair, coupled with the completion of the telegraph lines, ended the brief era of the Pony Express in October 1861. In 1862, the company filed for bankruptcy. Its remaining stagecoach operations, which retained value after the collapse of the rest of the company, were bought out by Ben Holladay.

James Dewey Watson KBE (1951), born 6 April 1928, is a molecular biologist and Nobel laureate, best known as one of the co-discoverers of the double-helix structure of DNA.
After gaining his PhD in Zoology at Indiana University, he spent a year at Copenhagen University before moving to Clare College Cambridge in 1951 for post-doctoral research. Together with Francis Crick, he proceeded to deduce the double helix structure of DNA. The announcement of the breakthrough – hailed as the most important scientific discovery of the twentieth century – was made in April 1953. James shared the 1962 Nobel Prize in Physiology with Crick and Wilkins for their research on the structure of nucleic acids.
At Harvard University, from 1956 to 1976, Watson championed the emerging discipline of molecular biology. In 1968, he became the Director of the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, later serving as its Chancellor. There he created a pre-eminent research environment for the study of genetics and oncology. Between 1988 and 1992, he was associated with the National Institutes of Health, helping to establish the Human Genome Project.
He was elected to an Honorary Fellowship of Clare College in 1967 and in the 2002 New Year's Honours received an honorary KBE for services to the UK-American partnership in genetics and science.

Air New Zealand Flight 901 eller Mount Erebus-olyckan () var en flygolycka med ett Air New Zealand-flygplan den 28 november 1979. Flygplanet startade från Auckland Airport i Nya Zeeland för en sightseeingtur över Antarktis, och var tänkt att sedan återvända till Christchurch International Airport i Nya Zeeland, och sådana flygturer hade genomförts sedan 1977. Flygplanet störtade vid Mount Erebus på Rossön och alla 257 personer inuti flygplanet, både besättningsmän och passagerare, omkom.

Olyckan inträffade en dag före 50-årsdagen av att Richard Byrds genomfört den första flygturen över Sydpolen med flygplanet Plåtgåsen.

Exit I-154
by Josh Israel October 30, 2006 March 17, 2019
In a unanimous ruling issued on October 26, the Montana Supreme Court rejected an appeal by proponents of Initiative 154 that sought to put it and two other initiatives back on the ballot.
I-154 aimed to restrict the use of eminent domain and compel governments to pay property owners for environmental and land-use regulations (including zoning rules) that could reduce the value of their holdings.
The court's ruling upheld the September 13 order of District Judge Dirk M. Sandefur to remove the three initiatives from the November ballot.
The supreme court ruled that Sandefur "did not err when [he] invalidated the signatures of proponents' out-of-state signature-gatherers that were obtained in a manner that did not comply with Montana statutes and were tainted by or associated with deceptive practices and misrepresentation."
All three ballot initiatives were pushed and financed by Montanans in Action, which has been financed by tax-exempt organizations and other entities operated by Howard Rich, a political activist from New York City.
Because ballots have already been designed, the court ordered that county administrators not count the votes for the three initiatives "to the extent that this is technically feasible" and that, "if the votes must be counted, they will have no force or effect."
Protect Our Homes Montana, the official proponent of the initiative, spent at least $315,000 in support of I-154. More than $285,000 of that amount came from Montanans in Action.

Definitely great! Thanks for doing this! I did notice a typo on your homepage. I assume you meant Doc Adams started playing baseball in 1839 (not 1939).
The Baseball Stadium Connoisseur on July 30, 2013 at 10:13 pm said:
Thanks for catching the typo! Working a little too late I guess 🙂
G. O'Maxfield on February 10, 2014 at 3:30 pm said:
At last, a complete source of material on one of early baseball's elder statesman. You can almost hear Doc yelling to his outfield to get the ball into him for the relay or to smell the warm breezes off the Hudson in that magical Elysian Field. Huzzah!

This is a wonderful site! Thank you so much for putting it together. I'm proud to be a cousin to Doc Adams.

I think this is an informative and concise website regarding Doc Adams.
Surely, all that
he has given to baseball qualifies him to be a true pioneer of the game!

Crankie,
Thanks for pointing me to the site. I knew what I thought was a great deal about Doc Adams.
But I guess I was just scratching the surface. A great site. A needed site. Men like Doc need to be publicized so the lies about the history of our game can get eliminated.
I wish I could find out information about my uncle Cappy like this.
I look forward to coming back.

Marjorie,
It was nice to meet you at Old Bethpage last weekend. Doc's comments about keeping the team going and the rhetoric employed with the players is so much like the current vintage managers are still doing today it was uncanny. The Gothams support what you are trying to do for Doc. Best wishes.

With the authenticity (per official MLB historian John Thorn) of the recently re-discovered "Laws of Base Ball" from 1857 authored by Daniel Lucius "Doc" Adams, corresponding with newspaper accounts of the time and other historical records, there can now be no doubt that Doc Adams was the FATHER, and instrumental pioneer through his leadership of the New York Knickerbockers Base Ball Club, of the modern version of baseball as we know it today. Doc Adams precludes Alexander Cartwright. Doc Adams deserves election to the MLB Hall of Fame as soon as possible, as one of the most prominent members of the Hall. He also greatly deserves the appreciation of his crucial contributions to the game from baseball players and fans around the world.

I am a Civil War re-enactor and perform many presentations for school children about daily life of a 19th century soldier, (North & South) food, clothing, marching. I am a big baseball fan also, (my grandson plays travel ball), and we will visit Cooperstown this summer and play. I am very excited to be able to include base ball in my presentation. Hope to learn more from this web site. Caps, uniforms. pictures and equipment… thanks, Mike Boyd, 33rd Ala. Infantry Regiment
Doc Adams on April 28, 2016 at 9:00 pm said:
Mr. Boyd: Thank you so much for your very interesting comment!!! While Doc did not fight in the Civil War (he was too old), he had a nephew who fought at 2nd Manassas (Union, of course) and was severely wounded — had to "play dead" for two days as the Confederate soldiers were always on the look-out for the survivors to finish them off (dreadful). His family in NH was told he was dead but somehow it took him about three weeks to get home. He never fully recovered from his wounds and died a few years later. As for the Knickerbocker Base Ball Club and its uniform, they designed their first one on April 24, 1849. (Doc was President of the club). The uniform consisted of a white flannel shirt and blue woolen "pantaloons" and a chip (straw) hat. The woolen cap came later. You will see two buttons from Doc's club uniform — they are c.1855. Quite possibly, the 1849 uniform was the first base ball uniform: difficult to verify.
We hope you will enjoy your visit to Cooperstown (we were just there two weeks ago) and we wish your grandson a wonderful season of base ball, and to you, of course, we wish you much success with your re-enactments and presentations: how lucky the school children are to have access to such important historical information.
Thank you again for your interest in Doc Adams and our site. If you have not already read either of them, might we recommend John Thorn's book: Baseball In the Garden Of Eden and William J. Ryczek's: Base Ball's First Innings.
Jim Willison on May 6, 2016 at 10:39 pm said:
Why can't they have a special election based on the findings to be true and accurate. Why must Doc wait so long to properly take his place in Cooperstown. So thankful for all the hard work Marjorie Adams has put into getting Doc in his rightful spot in history.
Doc Adams on May 9, 2016 at 9:11 am said:
Mr. Willison: Thank you so much for your support and kind words! Whenever Doc Adams is inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame, the entire family will be grateful! We will continue to work towards that goal whenever it happens.

Just recently learned about Doc Adams and his contributions to the game I love. Played in the Doc Adams Old Time Base Ball Festival over the weekend and met Marjorie Adams. I can't stop thinking about how there needs to be recognition in the form of Baseball Hall of Fame election and I am now on a mission to educate others. I have signed the petition and hope to not necessarily convince anyone to sign, but have them look at the facts and decide for themselves. Thanks, Doc – pleasure meeting you Marjorie.

In previous studies, the embryo lethality assay (ELA) was able to discriminate between virulent and avirulent avian Escherichia coli isolates and to predict percent mortality of the embryos resulting from an isolate based on three traits. The abilities to resist host complement, presence of Colicin V activity, and presence of the increased serum survival gene cluster (iss), were used together in a logistic regression analysis to predict the percentage of embryo deaths resulting from each of 20 avian E. coli isolates used in the ELA. In the present study, the same 20 isolates are used in an intravenous chicken challenge model in an effort to determine whether the ELA could be used to replace chicken challenge studies. Correlations between the mortality and a combination of mortality and morbidity (the survivors at trial termination with lesions suggestive of colibacillosis) and the previous ELA results and with selected isolate traits were performed. Additionally, resulting body weights in surviving chickens were compared between groups. The highest positive correlations were observed between the ELA and the combined mortality/morbidity of the intravenous challenge (r = 0.861, P < 0.0001 for the first ELA challenge, and r = 0.830, P < 0.0001 for the second ELA challenge). The IV challenge combined mortality/morbidity results had the highest correlation coefficients with the presence of iss (r = 0.864, P < 0.0001) and the expression of ColV (r = 0.878, P < 0.0001). The presence of tsh was slightly correlated with mortality (r = 0.465, P = .0389) but demonstrated a higher correlation with the combined mortality and morbidity of the IV challenge (r = 0.558, P = 0.0106). Even though the ELA results in a higher number of nonspecific deaths, the two challenge methods exhibit similar results and a high correlation with each other. Interestingly, some of the isolates showed differences in their ability to cause mortality between the ELA and the IV challenge model. Furthermore, some isolates reflected significant differences in body weights of surviving birds at IV trial termination.


Four years after the release (and apparent commercial failure) of Daddy's Home, Kane, with very little fanfare, released this, a 21-cut return to form that managed to slip by just about everybody. As usual, it's a shame, because there are some great songs on here. Kane keeps it as lyrically dense as ever, and though some of the beats aren't fantastic, none of 'em are bad. If the music's guilty of anything, it's being forgettable. But with the King Asiatic spitting fire over the top, it doesn't really matter. He's always been able to throw a standard beat on his shoulders and carry it to the promise land. He does a helluva job of it here.
The same can't be said for the eight skits (or "interludes") included on the disc.
I could write pages on how the "skit" has infected and distorted the modern hip hop album, but I'll spare you. For now. But c'mon. You know and I know that they're rarely good, and even if they are, you don't want to hear them more than once. Kane had hardly ever succumbed to such trendy moves in the past, and I have to say, it's my big disappointment with this album. In reality, there are 13 songs here. Which is fine. The skits, while short (although the 1:27 "Ole Tyme Bluez" feels like an eternity), are largely unnecessary, and just give you the strange feeling that Kane's been hanging around with Method Man too much. "Fish Tandoori" is the only one that's kind of funny, but it's a tad racist and a bit too much.
Anywho...the songs are good. Not all are great, but like I said, that's more due to the innocuous beats than Kane's rhyming. Though he did produce the majority of the songs, so I suppose he is ultimately the one to point the finger at. But we need not point fingers. The beats hit hard and give BDK ample room to kick the verses. While he spends a bit too much time reminding us of his past accomplishments, he doesn't dwell on it, and cuts like "Definitely" and "La-La Land" could easily stand side-by-side with any of his work.
My favorite song, and one that serves as an additional reminder of why the Big Daddy will always be my favorite rapper, is "Do U Really Know?," a song that calls out the gangstas and poseurs of the hip hop world, asking them to think about the examples they might be setting for the youth, especially their own children. It's a song that could have come off as a heavy-handed lesson from a guy who's seen it all, but Kane handles it with precision, both pointing out the ridiculous and the obvious. Yup, he gets my vote for being one of the only "real" rappers out there. Seriously.
So yeah, this didn't spark a Kane comeback, but you almost get the vibe that it wasn't intended to. It's like he just poked his head back in, let everyone know he was still a way better lyricist than they were, and then just waited for the Hip Hop Honors to call him. And they did.
And I'm stuck sitting here, still waiting for the official follow-up to this one.
There was one song of Big Daddy Kane's that I meant to squeeze in before we made it through all his albums, but I never got to. It's a track that only made an album appearance as an oddly placed live version on It's A Big Daddy Thing, but I feel like it just sums the man up perfectly. Here's the studio version. It's a single from early in his career. It's the best kind of hip hop out there. It's "The Wrath of Kane."

Alan Teggart scored Ballymena United's opening goal from the penalty spot in Saturday's win at Institute. Picture: Press Eye.
Alan Teggart says Ballymena United's players share the fans' frustration that their run of form has come too late to salvage the season.
The winger scored the opening goal as the Sky Blues made it four successive wins in the Danske Bank Premiership, with a 2-1 success at Institute on Saturday.
"We're pleased with the run we've put together since the disappointment of the cup semi-final," Teggart told Times Sport.
"People say there's nothing to play for but we know we let ourselves down in the semi-final where we just didn't turn up.
"Now we've got a wee bit of a run together and people might say 'it's only the bottom six' but we still have to go out and win the games.
Teggart's goal set United on the way to a win which condemned Institute to the drop and the winger might be more disappointed than most to see the back of the Drumahoe men, after scoring penalties in three of the four games against them this season.
McCutcheon's spot kick came at a time when Teggart found himself on the bench for a spell but since the Irish Cup semi-final defeat by Portadown, Teggart has found himself back in favour, with manager Glenn Ferguson opting for more width in his line-up.
"Glenn brought players in in January which made it more competitive and that is what you need.
"It was all about biding my time and trying to get back into the team. I'm happy to be back playing and getting some game time again.
"Every summer any manager will obviously look to strengthen his squad and build for the next season.
"We're under no illusions as players that Glenn will be looking to add players and build on what we have done this season," added Teggart.

On Tuesday's Deadline: White House, MSNBC host and former Republican Nicolle Wallace was in denial about the existence of racism within her new home on the left as she ridiculously claimed that "there isn't a strain of racism on the left."
Her comments came during a discussion of Iowa Republican Congressman Steve King's flirtations with white nationalists that have drawn condemnation from fellow Republicans.
But the MSNBC host was overlooking several facets of racism that exist on the left that the dominant liberal media typically ignore.
Part of the problem is we think -- this does not have a parallel on the left -- it doesn't. There isn't a strain of racism on the left. So I think that this gets brushed under the rug -- people sort of tolerate -- it's been normalized. Like you just said, they don't have anywhere else to go, so they attach to the Republican party.
She then posed: "The Republican party doesn't have to let them. How do Republicans sort of get back to doing something decent?"
I think the problem for the Repubican party is, this is not the message of the party -- not as explicit as Steve King -- they don't come out and endorse white supremacy -- but if you look at their closing argument to voters in the last election, it wasn't just the argument that Donald Trump was making, but Repubican House and Senate candidates all across the country were talking about this caravan of brown people who were charging the Southern border and were coming across to take your jobs and threaten your children.
He added: "That is the message of the Republican party now. And until they come up with a different message, you're going to see these racists and cranks all throughout the party."
Not mentioned were the recurring controversies about blatantly racist Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, including his links to current Democratic members of Congress, which are usually ignored by the liberal media.
Additionally, the mockery and criticism of whites is very much tolerated on the left, as evidenced by many cracks about "old white men" made over the past couple years, especially during the hearings for Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
And one of the MSNBC contributors who appears regularly on her show, Jason Johnson of The Root, has quite a history of obsessing over race, and even wrote an article freaking out because a white Democrat was elected mayor of St. Louis instead of a black candidate, as he even included a quote of a critic deriding her as an "f---ing white woman."
In fact, Wallace's colleague, MSNBC host Chris Hayes, has even fretted over polling suggesting that many white Democrats hold racist views toward blacks. So racial controversies are certainly not a phenomenon exclusive to Repubicans and conservatives.


FUNimation Entertainment has announced that tickets for the live-action Attack on Titan movies are now available for purchase via the official site at AttackonTitanTheMovie.com. The new, two-part feature film is a limited theatrical release and will screen in nearly 300 theaters across the United States and Canada.
In the U.S., Part 1 will play in theaters on September 30, October 1 and 7 and has an approximate running time of 98 minutes; and Part 2 will screen two weeks later on October 20, 22 and 27 and has an approximate running time of 87 minutes. In Canada, Part 1 will play in theaters on October 5 and 26 followed by Part 2 on October 22 and October 26.
Based on the popular manga series of the same name, Attack on Titan takes place in a world where the remnants of humanity live inside a series of connected cities, isolated by enormous walls. These walls exists to keep the Titans out, gigantic humanoid creatures who devour humans seemingly without reason. These Titans have reduced the world's population to staggeringly low numbers. The three main protagonists of Isayama's manga are Eren Jaeger, his adoptive sister Mikasa Ackerman, and their friend Armin Arlert. Their lives are changed forever when a 'Colossal Titan' breaches the wall protecting their town, leading to the death of Eren's mother. Vowing revenge and to reclaim the world from the Titans, Eren, Mikasa and Armin join the Survey Corps, an elite group of soldiers who fight Titans outside the walls.
With more than 50 million copies in print today, Attack on Titan has also inspired four spin-off manga as well as a 25-episode anime series which FUNimation both simulcast and released to home video in North America.

Search for missing woman results in unconnected arrest for gun possession
By : Mark White
Tag: Laura Anderson, missing woman
So far the police investigation into Williamsburg woman's February disappearance has yielded the arrest of one individual last week for complicity to commit murder.
Laura Anderson has been missing since Feb. 11. Police now believe she is deceased and are actively searching for her remains.
A second person, who reportedly saw the woman a short time before she disappeared, is also facing separate charges that arose in connection to the investigation into her disappearance.
On Thursday evening, police thought that they had located the woman's remains in a rural portion of Whitley County only to find out Friday morning that the bones they recovered weren't human remains. Police are also planning to continue the search for the woman's remains in that same area this week.
These are the latest developments in the case of Laura Anderson, who was last seen on the evening of Feb. 11, when she exited her mother's vehicle near Pilot Travel Center off Exit 11 after getting into a fight with her boyfriend.
On Aug. 27, Joseph Samuel James Bauer, 33, contacted Williamsburg police confessing to his involvement in Anderson's death, said Williamsburg Police Chief Wayne Bird.
So far, police have been able to corroborate about 90 percent of Bauer's information, except where the suspects disposed of Anderson's body.
Bauer initially told police that Anderson's body was dumped in the Clear Fork River at the Savoy Bridge, which prompted an extensive water and ground search of the area that turned up a bone, which later was determined not to be human.
On Sept. 4, Bird charged Bauer with complicity to commit murder, complicity to commit tampering with physical evidence, complicity to commit first-degree robbery and complicity to being a convicted felon in possession of a handgun in connection with Anderson's death.
There are two other suspects in the case, who so far have not been charged, and police think the shooting death was drug-related, Bird said.
On Thursday, two FBI forensics teams processed Bauer's 1998 Z-71 pick-up truck for evidence, and Bird said that based on some of those findings some of Bauer's statements didn't quite add up.
Police talked to Bauer again Thursday afternoon at the Whitley County Detention Center.
"After a few minutes, he said I will take you and show you, and he brought us here," Bird said about a location police went to near the end of Dal Road.
The area, which is located off of a gravel road, is a dry creek bed/four-wheeler path where Bauer says Anderson's remains were buried in a shallow grave. Three cadaver dogs indicated the presence of remains in the area before police and Whitley County Coroner Andy Croley started digging.
Although the bones found there Thursday proved not to be human, Bird said that police are still searching around the Dal Road area for signs of Anderson's possible remains.
"There are still some areas there that we need to go back and check. Now we have rains and potential flooding again," Bird said Monday morning. "When the weather breaks we are going to resume searching again. We haven't given up."
Bird said that spring floodwaters could have washed remains further down the creek bed, or one or both of the other suspects could have moved the body. So far they haven't ruled anything out.
Bird said that Bauer is continuing to cooperate with police.
"He has been very cooperative," Bird said.
Bird noted that Whitley County Jailer Brian Lawson and the Whitley County Detention Center staff have provided a lot of assistance with the case and the search for Anderson's remains.
"Brian Lawson has been instrumental in this thing. I can't say enough about the help that he has provided to this investigation. Any time we have called or need something, he goes out of his way to help us," Bird added.
Bauer waived his right to a preliminary hearing Monday morning in Whitley District Court, and Judge Cathy Prewitt forwarded his case onto the grand jury for consideration.
Other arrest prompted
The investigation into Anderson's disappearance resulted in a secondary investigation, Bird testified Monday.
On Sept. 4, Bird charged James Edward Carroll, 49, with being a convicted felon in possession of a handgun, and on Sept. 6, he charged Carroll with being a first-degree persistent felony offender.
Carroll's attorney, James Wren, noted during court Monday that he was aware of the ongoing investigation into the murder case, and that he and the prosecutor reached an agreement to not get into the details of the murder case during Carroll's preliminary hearing.
Bird testified Monday that on Aug. 27, an individual, whom he didn't identify, contacted him.
This is the same day Bauer contacted Williamsburg police.
The man told police that on Feb. 11, he and Carroll drove to a third person's residence in the Highland Park area where he and Carroll allegedly sold a .380 semi-automatic handgun to the resident there. The person at that residence confirmed this, Bird testified.
Feb. 11 is the date Anderson was last seen alive.
On the next day, the person, who bought the .380 handgun, went to Carroll's residence at 980 Savoy Clear Creek Road where he purchased a .25 caliber handgun, Bird testified.
Bird said that Carroll voluntarily came to the police department in late August or early September where he had a recorded conversation with police.
Bird said he asked Carroll during the interview if other individuals said he was in possession of a gun or guns would they be lying.
Carroll responded with something along the lines of that he wouldn't say they were lying, Bird testified.
After the hearing, Wren stipulated that prosecution had established probable cause, and Prewitt sent both cases onto the Whitley County Grand Jury for consideration.
She left Carroll's bond the same, which is $100,000 cash on the persistent felony offender charge, and $20,000 cash on the handgun possession charge.
Wren noted that Carroll is innocent until proven guilty.
"Even from the testimony of the chief of police, the only evidence that he ever had possession of a gun was other people saying that he had been in possession of a handgun. There was no testimony that any hand gun was recovered," Wren said adding that all this stems from an incident back in February and nobody reported seeing his client in possession of a gun recently.
Bird said that on the day Anderson disappeared, Carroll's residence was the last place Anderson was seen alive before she exited her mother's vehicle at Pilot.
"She had just come from the Carroll residence," Bird noted.
Carroll has not been charged in connection with Anderson's disappearance or death.

Prague taxi drivers staged their biggest protest so far in the centre of the city against what they describe as unfair competition from drivers using Uber and other similar applications.
An estimated 1,500 to 2,000 drivers congregated on the edge of the city on Thursday morning with the aim to stage a go slow snail protest in the centre in the early afternoon. The protest ended around the middle of the afternoon.
Minister of Transport Dan Ťok condemned the protest and said he would not meet protest leaders before an already agreed date later in the month.
The latest protest is part of a series undertaken by so-called official drivers who have to pay the city for their licenses and obey other rules. They say competition from unofficial drivers is undercutting their business. The drivers have been pressing city and national authorities to put both types of taxi drivers on the same footing.
