It is to be proposed to the General Meeting of 2 May 2019 that Markus Breitenmoser and Hans-Kristian Hoejsgaard be elected as members of the Board of Directors and successors to Marco Gadola and Jean-Philippe Rochat.
The Canton of Basel-Stadt is delegating Dr. Dagmar Maria Kamber Borens to the Board of Directors as per 2 May 2019 to succeed Werner Helfenstein.
Board of Directors' members Marco Gadola, Jean-Philippe Rochat and Werner Helfenstein will be resigning from the Board of MCH Group Ltd. at the General Meeting of 2 May 2019. Marco Gadola has been a member of the Board since 2016 and is chairman of the Audit Committee. Jean-Philippe Rochat was an observer as of 2013 and, since 2017, has been a member of the Board of Directors and of the Governance, Nomination and Compensation Committee (GNCC). Werner Helfenstein has been a member of the Board of Directors since 2006 – as a delegate of the Canton of Basel-Stadt since 2013 – and is resigning from the Board on age grounds.
MCH Group Ltd. extends its sincere thanks to Marco Gadola, Jean-Philippe Rochat and Werner Helfenstein for their strong commitment to the company's highest body. The Board of Directors is proposing to the General Meeting of 2 May 2019 that Markus Breitenmoser and Hans-Kristian Hoejsgaard be elected as successors to Marco Gadola and Jean-Philippe Rochat.
Markus Breitenmoser has been recommended for nomination by shareholders linked to AMG Analysen & Anlagen AG, which, among other things, represents the biggest private shareholder of MCH Group Ltd. For more than 30 years, he has been a Board of Directors' member, manager and consultant in different sectors of industry worldwide, including in the financial industry, and especially in the field of corporate restructuring and repositioning. He holds an MBA degree from the University of St. Gallen. Among other things, he is the founder and a partner and Board member of the consultancy Breitenmoser & Partner GmbH in Rapperswil-Jona and the innovation research company Alpora AG in Zug and also chairman of the Board of Central American forestry company, Novelteak AG.
Hans-Kristian Hoejsgaard has more than 30 years' international professional experience in managerial posts in different companies in the luxury and consumer goods industry as well as in the specialist retail trade – most recently as CEO of Oettinger Davidoff AG in Basel. Since 4 September 2018, he has been interim CEO of MCH Group Ltd. and will be continuing in this function until Bernd Stadlwieser, the new CEO, arrives on 12 June 2019. He is thus bringing valuable knowledge from the operational management of MCH Group Ltd. with him to the Board of Directors.
The government of the Canton of Basel-Stadt has taken the decision to delegate Dr. Dagmar Maria Kamber Borens to the Board of Directors of MCH Group Ltd. as successor to Werner Helfenstein. As a doctor of law and financial specialist, she was Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Swiss Universal Bank and Credit Suisse (Schweiz) AG until October 2018, where she was responsible inter alia for the segments of strategy, digitisation, IT, operations and bank products as well as marketing and sponsoring. Prior to that, Dr. Dagmar Maria Kamber Borens worked for almost 18 years in different managerial posts for UBS AG in Zurich, London and Singapore and, from 2012 to 2016, was Group CFO for the Asia-Pacific region in Singapore.
In addition, the Board of Directors proposes to the General Meeting that Dr. Ulrich Vischer be re-elected as a member and chairman of the Board of Directors and that Dr. Karin Lenzlinger Diedenhofen and Andreas Widmer be re-elected as members of the Board of Directors. It is proposed that Dr. Ulrich Vischer, Dr. Balz Hösly and Thomas Weber be re-elected as members of the Governance, Nomination and Compensation Committee (GNCC) and that Hans-Kristian Hoejsgaard be elected as a new member of the GNCC.

Five Brandeston Hall pupils recently attended the IAPS National Swimming Finals at Crawley.
They qualified for the finals by recording one of the twelve fastest times nationally- which is no mean feat. They were competing against sporting schools like Bishop Stortford College, Millfield and Dragon School. Not only were Brandeston the only school from the Eastern Regional Qualifier to get a relay team through to the National finals; we managed to get two teams through! This was the first time these pupils had qualified for such a large event and they did not let the pressure get to them.
The U12 Girls Medley Relay was the first to take to the pool. Freya Faulkner (Backstroke) had a strong start with a clean touch to Hattie Reader (Breaststroke) whose transition from dive to stroke was well executed and another fast leg. Lily Reader was next with a free flowing rhythmical length of butterfly. The Medley relay concluded with Ruby Sheepshanks who had a powerful and fast front crawl. This cumulated in a time of 1:13:13, knocking over 3 seconds off the time they set in the regional event.
Next it was the turn of the U12 Girls Freestyle Relay. Hattie Reader was on the lead off leg and her quick reaction and flowing stroke kept Brandeston in the mix, with all eight lanes touching within 1 second of each other. Second to go was Georgie Gardens, who was recovering from a hamstring pull but gave it her all, with her powerful leg kick and strong arm pull. The changeover was again smooth with Brandeston not losing any ground on the other teams. The third length was swam by Lily Reader who with her flowing front crawl, which cuts through the water, posted another great time. Finally Ruby Sheepshanks swam the anchor leg, her quick reactions on the start kept Brandeston in contention for a good finish. Ruby swam strongly on the last length, finishing in a time of 1:03:11. This again was three seconds faster than their regional round.
In the Medley relay the girls were placed 11th overall and in the freestyle relay the came a very strong 8th. These placing, as well as posting personal best times for their relays, is an excellent result for both teams.
Brandeston Hall is now ranked 74th of 608 IAPS Prep Schools for swimming.
The swimming coaches at Brandeston would like to thank all the pupils and parents for their hard work, dedication and support this year.

I'm Still Alive, Writes Jackie Chan on Facebook After Death Rumour
Press Trust of India | May 18, 2015 18:38 IST (Beijing)
Jackie Chan said he was shocked by reports of his death
This isn't the first time that a Jackie Chan death hoax has made its way around the Internet
Chinese action star Jackie Chan has quashed rumours about his death that began circulating around the Internet.
The 61-year-old Rush Hour star took to social networking site Facebook to provide proof of his continued vitality.
"I was shocked by two news reports when I got off the plane. First of all, don't worry! I'm still alive. Second, don't believe the scam on Weibo using my name about the Red Pockets. This is my official Facebook page and I only have 1 official Weibo page. Love you all," Mr Chan posted on Facebook.
This isn't the first time that a Jackie Chan death hoax has made its way around the Internet.
In 2011, a Facebook page called 'Jackie Chan R.I.P 08/17/2011' went viral as flocks of fans memorialised the action star, who was said to have died from a heart attack. Similar rumours floated online in 2013.

15 Key Moments from the Trailer for 'Spider-Man: Far From Home'
First and foremost: SPOILER WARNING for 'Avengers: Endgame'!
'Spider-Man: Far From Home' Official Trailer
The official trailer for "Spider-Man: Far From Home" made its debut this morning, marking the first Marvel Studios movie since "Avengers: Endgame" hit theaters. That said, use this as your official warning that this trailer contains spoilers for "Avengers: Endgame." In fact, once you've watched the trailer -- and heeded not just our warning but also Tom Holland's -- you'll realize the first of many notable moments that we noticed:
The whole trailer is a spoiler for "Avengers: Endgame."
If you still haven't seen the movie -- and what's stopping you? -- watching this trailer will definitely spoil key events that occurred in "Avengers: Endgame." If anyone was wondering if "Spider-Man: Far From Home" took place before or after the movie, your answer is now clear: after.
Peter Parker, along with the rest of the world, is mourning Iron Man and Tony Stark
The world lost a hero, but Peter lost his mentor. To say nothing of Happy Hogan (Jon Favreau), who lost his long-time boss and confidante.
Crimefighting will have to wait, though -- Peter is going on vacation!
And here we get a little more clarification on the subtitle, "Far From Home" -- Peter and his friends are going to Europe for some vacay! Not before he can get a sick burn on some cops, though. Surely, nothing will try to stop them from having a good time...
Nick Fury is on the phone. Peter does NOT want to talk to Nick Fury.
Can't a friendly neighborhood Spider-Man just... not? No. Everyone knows, especially Happy, that "You do NOT ghost Nick Fury."
Nick Fury finds Peter anyway -- because he's Nick Fury. And he wants to introduce someone new.
The first appearance of Jake Gyllenhaal as "Mr. Beck" seems cordial enough -- but he's not from around here...
The introduction of the Multiverse!
According to Nick Fury, "the snap" tore a hole in our dimension, causing trouble. Mr. Beck is from Earth, just "not ours," and he needs some assistance. (Also: Who is Mrs. Beck? It's a mystery!)
This is the first time Carol Danvers is referred to as Captain Marvel in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Unfortunately, she's unavailable to help out on this one.
Peter finds out that he's not just a "friendly neighborhood Spider-Man" anymore.
Says Fury: "B*tch please, you've been to space."
Mr. Beck brought some wicked powers with him.
He seems to be able to withstand some serious attacks with super powers -- to say nothing of that helmet -- he must be up against something pretty dangerous.
The monsters they're fighting look pretty threatening.
We get a glimpse of the elemental creatures that Spider-Man will have to fight, and they look pretty gnarly! They're also causing a lot of property damage.
Mr. Beck has definitely lost someone.
No one knows more than Peter that "sometimes, people die." But who did Beck lose?
Does MJ know Peter is Spider-Man?
It certainly looks like MJ (Zendaya) is on to Peter's secret identity... maybe she's kidding?
Peter is wearing Tony's HUD glasses.
In case your heart was healing from our collective loss, Peter got to keep some of Tony's tech. A perfect way to segue into...
"The world needs the next Iron Man."
Peter has his Iron Spider suit here and gets to play with some new tech, so it's safe to say that at least Tony's influence and legacy survived.
Peter's worlds collide as his friends meet Happy Hogan.
How much longer will Peter be able to keep his Super Hero life secret if his friends know that he works with Tony Stark's former right-hand man?
The "Spider-Man: Far From Home" trailer may have raised a few questions, but you'll get them all answered when the movie hits theaters on July 2!
Grab your passport and join Spider-Man in Europe in "Spider-Man: Far From Home," in theaters July 2.
Stay tuned to Marvel.com, follow @SpiderManMovie on Twitter, and like "Spider-Man: Far From Home" on Facebook for the latest on "Spider-Man: Far From Home" as it develops!

After a successful fourth season, and eight months or so of good hard work in Stratford, I'm so happy to be returning to Chicago! I'm in the (very slow) process of packing up, and (as evidenced by this post) procrastinating wildly. Lots to get done — so I better get a move on.

Developing countries which invest in better education, healthcare, and job
training for their record numbers of young people between the ages of 12
and 24 years of age, could produce surging economic growth and sharply
reduced poverty, according to a new World Bank report launched at the
Bank's Annual Meetings in Singapore.
With 1.3 billion young people now living in the developing world-the
largest-ever youth group in history-the report says there has never been a
better time to invest in youth because they are healthier and better
educated than previous generations, and they will join the workforce with
fewer dependents because of changing demographics.
However, failure to seize this opportunity to train them more effectively
for the workplace, and to be active citizens, could lead to widespread
disillusionment and social tensions.
"Such large numbers of young people living in developing countries present
great opportunities, but also risks," says Fran�ois Bourguignon, the World
Bank's Chief Economist and Senior Vice President for Development
"The opportunities are great, as many countries will have a larger, more
skilled labor force and fewer dependents. But these young people must be
well-prepared in order to create and find good jobs."
The report says that young people make up nearly half of the ranks of the
world's unemployed, and, for example, that the Middle East and North
Africa region alone must create 100 million jobs by 2020 in order to
stabilize its employment situation. Moreover, surveys of young people in
East Asia and Eastern Europe and Central Asia-carried out as research for
the report-indicate that access to jobs, along with physical security, is
their biggest concern.
Far too many young people--some 130 million 15-24

What was the most valuable piece of career advice that you received? It's okay to fail. Entrepreneurship is hard and the stakes are high because your early employees, customers and investors are basically betting on you. As a result, entrepreneurs worry a lot about getting it right and about making the right call, which is very hard to do because you are doing something new and unchartered. I learned early on that it is okay to make mistakes and it is okay to fail, as long as you learn from those mistakes and failures.
What was the worst piece of business advice that you received? VCs certainly have a lot of advice, but you have to be careful not to blindly follow it as a founder and early-stage CEO. At our first company in the dot-com era, the VCs were telling us to hire ahead of need. There was pressure, but we didn't follow it completely and when the dot-com era, became the dot-bomb era we were in better shape than many. We've always tried to grow as our business grows.
What advice would you give to someone starting their career in IT/tech? The most important first step is to get into a really good school. The people around you, the friends that you will meet, will stretch you. You can surround yourself with wonderful teachers and an excellent curriculum. You'll learn how to learn. This foundation will get you far in your career, from both the connections you'll make and the knowledge you will acquire.
Did you always want to work in IT/tech? A career in IT and tech always made sense to me. If we go back to my early days, I earned a PhD in fault tolerant and distributed computing. When I was finishing up in the early 90's, I knew I always wanted to do a startup. I didn't just focus on the job, but also the location. This led me to choose a job in Silicon Valley. Once I got here, this desire to do a startup kept gnawing at me. I still remember reading an interview with the founder of Hotmail. His answer to the question of, "Why did you do it?" really hit home. He said, "I never wanted to look back and say dang it I never tried." I couldn't agree more and realised I had to give it a shot. That's how this whole startup journey began for me.
What was your first job in IT/tech? My first job in tech was as a senior member of technical staff at Tandem (HP). I performed analysis of large-scale, distributed, fault tolerant systems and development of clustered networking systems. It was a good entry into the tech industry right after my PhD program at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
What are some common misconceptions about working in IT/tech? Working in IT is a slog and it's easy to burn yourself out. Unfortunately, that's not a misconception. If you want work-life balance, it's not just a matter of saying, "I'm going to work less hours." The problem is that IT is a 24-hour industry. You might easily find yourself working all night on a demo for the next day. In other industries, like construction, people can turn it off. Nobody is going to call you at 3 AM to complete that roof job. You can really be done for the day. Therefore, seeking balance takes time and maturity. You need to become more efficient in your work and that's an individual journey.
What tips would you give to someone aiming for a c-level position? First, you need to be able to do the job of the person above you. Don't just look at your area of focus but get involved more broadly. For example, if you are in product management, act like a CEO and get curious about other aspects of the business related to the product you are developing. You'll see that senior managers will automatically start involving you more if they find you to be a valuable resource. They'll ask you to fill in for someone who can't make it to an important event, and this is how you will naturally grow inside your company. What's important is to be engaged without being a threat or doing it in an overly competitive manner.
What are your career ambitions, and have you reached them yet? Well, the journey never ends. When we first started there were three of us with some ideas and slides. Now we have 150 employees, great customers and we're managing petabytes of data. From that perspective, Komprise is already a huge success, but it's not over yet. I remember in the early days of the pandemic we wanted to ensure we came out of it stronger, and I feel we are doing that. We have the right team. We have a huge market. Now we just need to continue to execute and ensure our customers are wildly successful.
Do you have a good work life balance in your current role? In my first startup, I had no balance. There was no such thing as a weekend or vacation. I burned out. Nowadays I do turn off. You can't let work become your life. You have to maintain certain boundaries, and this requires that you hire great leaders whom you can trust. But that's a process. You can't just hire someone and let go. Similarly, the new leader has to understand that they're coming in and taking on something you've always done and there needs to be a transition period.
What, if anything, would you change about the route your career path has taken? I spent time thinking about this question and I don't think I'd change anything. While looking for a job after graduating, I asked myself what I really wanted to do and made sure that the job I selected would take me towards my goal. I wanted to do a startup and though I had a great position in an Austin company, I took a job that was not as good of a fit, but which would bring me to Silicon Valley where I felt I'd have a better chance of eventually doing a startup. I think I made the right choice.
Which would you recommend: A coding bootcamp or a computer science degree? It all depends on what you want to do. Do you want to be a technician or an engineer? Coding bootcamps are fine if you strictly want to be a programmer. They will teach you how to code in a specific language. It's a good start, but a computer science degree will provide you the fundamentals so you can learn any language and design sophisticated software systems. Ultimately, it depends on what you want to do and what makes you happy.
How important are specific certifications? In the world of IT administration, they are useful. But if you are a computer scientist building product, I don't think certifications are necessary.
What are the three skills or abilities you look for in prospective candidates? The first one is "head room." When I interview someone, I am trying to understand if they are sharp and can learn on the job and extend themselves. Do they have the fundamentals, do they think well, and can they build on what they learn? Next, I look for passion and intensity. This can take someone a long way. Are they looking for a job or a place to build and create something amazing? And finally, is the individual someone who will be able to work with me and others. Will they be a team player?
What would put you off a candidate? This one is really hard, because we want to always hire the best, but we found early on that the best employee is a team player. Someone who is really smart but does not get along with others can be toxic to a startup. It's important to share our core values and our culture with every new employee when they join; a star team outweighs star athletes.
What are the most common mistakes made by candidates in an interview? How can those mistakes be avoided? If they don't have any questions at the end of the interview, that's a red flag. That means they haven't thought things through or maybe they didn't prepare. It makes me think they're not mature enough. I may excuse the fresh out of school types but if you've been around the block and this job is important to you, you should have some questions. Secondly, be honest and straight up about who you are and what you want in your next role. Ultimately, you want to be in a position which fits your needs and those of the company.
Do you think it is better to have technical or business skills – or a mix of both? It's better to have technical skills, because I feel you can develop the business skills. In the process of living life, we are all doing a business. We have to make money and pay bills and manage a household and develop relationships. It is much harder to develop the technical skills on the job. It's also a lot easier to get an MBA part-time if needed.
C-suite career advice


Situated in a much larger development designed by Design Haus Liberty, the meticulously detailed new Shoreditch offices of ad agency Analog Folk are surrounded by a boutique hotel (above) and an extension of the original building (below). Yet DH Liberty took special care to make this 900-square-metre space unique within its luxurious setting. And the main lobby and reception, with its laid-back lounge area and multi-faceted bar, immediately present this as an enviable workplace.
As its name intimates, the agency sees value in traditional methods, so its interior's modern-meets-classic aesthetic is a perfect fit. A mix of rustic and industrial elements characterizes the space: an old barn door opens to the boardroom, which features a long table topped with reclaimed doors and a metal wall hiding a screen for video presentations.
A second conference room is split with a sculptural steel divider that cordons off the main area from smaller meeting spaces, individually enclosed with white curtains. The recycled jam jar luminaires that light the room add a whimsical touch, with some of the mismatched jars holding tiny decorative surprises. Built with repurposed scaffolding, the office library does double-duty, acting as a screen for the row of booths that provide a quiet place for workers in the open-plan office to take conference calls.
An installation floating adjacent the staircase to the mezzanine level exhibits upcycling at its finest; the "Flying Nemo" chandelier was developed with the concept of old bottles washing up on a beach. The team digitally scripted an arrangement of recycled glass bottles that mimics the motions of fish, swimming through the air. More glass, from the building's old windows, was crushed and reused in the new terrazzo floors.

Dodgers Open Regular Season in San Diego
Scott Andes April 4, 2016 April 4, 2016 Regular Season Recaps/Previews 38
The 2016 Dodgers season officially kicks off later today with a strange mid late afternoon start against the Padres at Petco Park. The Dodgers start the season on the road this year. They'll play a three game series at San Diego Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday before heading into the lion's den to play a four game series against the Giants starting Thursday and going through the weekend.
We learned what the Dodger's opening day roster was when the club announced it on Sunday afternoon. Not a whole lot of surprises. Although only having one left handed reliever in the bullpen is really going to hurt them in the late innings. Unfortunately J.P. Howell is the only reliable lefty reliever the club has right now. Luis Avilan and Adam Liberatore clearly suck, so the Dodgers will stash them in the minors to start the season.

Game time- 4PM- tv-SNLA-ESPN
Today's game will see Clayton Kershaw battle right hander Tyson Ross. This has got to be at least the sixth consecutive time that Kershaw opens the season for the Dodgers on opening day. The record is seven set by Don Sutton, so Kershaw needs one more to tie. It's always nice to win the first game, although it doesn't mean the season is over if you don't. So let's not get too upset if they lose. If the Dodgers do win this afternoon they'll have a perfect record. Honest to goodness guys they will.
It's been so long since I actually wrote a pegame. I've missed it. Consider this the first pregame in Ladodgerreport history. You can expect one of these every day before every Dodger game. You can also expect Kershaw to pitch very well against the Padres. Which he always has throughout his career. Kershaw has a 12-6 record with a 2.57 ERA in 27 starts against the Show Pads. Now I'm starting to talk like Jerry Hairston Jr. At Petco Park Kershaw is 4-2 with a 2.13 ERA in ten career starts.
The current group of Padres has done little against Kershaw. The new Padres are hitting .250 (20 for 80) with a .616 OPS against.

Ross has pitched well against the Dodgers, but has yet to actually get a win versus the boys in blue. The tall right hander is 0-6 with 2.67 ERA in ten games against the Dodgers. The current Dodgers haven't done much against Ross either. The Dodgers are hitting .255(26 for 102) with two home runs against Ross.

Will Chase Utley get the start at second base with a right hander on the mound? Who will start in left field? Who will Dave Roberts bat lead-off? Will A.J. Ellis catch Kershaw? There are a lot of questions that are going to be answered as the Dave Roberts era kicks off in a few hours. Check back over here after the game for our recap.

Well here we guys – will be tuning in tonight from Lanzarote, Spain where I'm on holidays with the family.
Looking forward to the season and hopefully the Boys in Blue will prove me wrong and have me eating humble pie before September is out.
Bobby, as stated before I have us at 81-81 with Utley as our MVP
I have had a couple of beers & been in the sun all day!
C'mon boys – lets get off to a flyer
And Go Dodgers!
Oscar Martinez says:
Right on, Watford! Are you enjoying some of that world-class Spanish ham?
That stuff is delicious.
Mark_Timmons says:
To those who thought Doc should "protect" Seager. NOT! Roberts realizes this kid is MVP-Quality.
I believe the Dodgers will win 90 to 95 games. I can't get much finer than that.
Like several other teams, they have a shot at winning it all… how the season plays out will determine it.
Mark Cory was batting lower, and he did fine. I was one of those people. But I will say that Cory really impressed me, in those last three games, against the Angels. He adjusted after all of his early at bats, and got at least one hit, in every game. And he had only been back, for a minute.
This is the line up, I believe.
Utley
The Franchise is batting 2, right where he should be, for the next 10 years
Bumsrap says:
There has been some debate about where in the lineup the best hitter should be. It seems like the #3 spot is no longer automatic for the best hitter and the #2 spot for the best hitter is getting more popular. Bobby, is that why you put The Franchise in the #2 spot?
You got it. I never saw Seager as a Carlos Correa type power guy, I saw hen more of a left handed jeter with a bit more pop. Hence bat him 2nd
Decent lineup.
W, 81-81, Utley as MVP. Classic. No prediction will beat that one.
not even if I were to suggest that Crawford would be the MVP?
RichieF. says:
For those of you who think we need another LHP in the BP, consider: Yimi= .156 vs LHB and Hatcher, yes Hatcher for the past two seasons is .208 (31-149)=.208 vs.273(59-216) vs RHB.
Scott so the question is: how many times will you be moving like that during the regular season? Watford says 81. I'm on record for 85. Mark gave a range, so at least 90. Not sure where Badger landed.
So how many?
Im hoping for 100 times, plus 11 more in the postseason
90+ is my guess and if I were to go with a plus/minus it would be 92 ∓ 2
How many hits are the Dodgers going to get today?
dodgerrick says:
I'm on record – 88 wins. Kershaw gets maybe 34 starts and the Dodgers win 25 or more of them. That means that the rest of the rotation has to win 63 out of 128. (49%) That seems doable. Last year, famously the team won 50% of the games not started by Kershaw or Greinke and won 92.
I'll stick with 90…
Watford my man, I'm jealous as always… Once got stuck by a 10 day pilot strike in North Ireland, so the little woman and I went to Mejorca!!! Thank you Aer Lingus…
Anybody watching the Rangers game. Hamels started. The guy in their now, who came with Hamels, Diekman, is a tall left handed reliever who throws 100 mph with a nasty slider to go with it. 8th inning guy. Dang.
I haven't picked a number yet, just the under 92. With this current bunch? I'll say 7. There will be a few changes before we get to 8 wins. A few more before we get to 20, and another one before we get to 30. Then we go 5 without any changes, then we have changes and after the changes we cruise up into the All Star break without any more changes. Then at the deadline we make some more changes. We might have about 44 wins by that time, but I think we make more changes then. So much depends on who is in there after the changes. So, over 81, under 92.
Roger Dodger says:
Former Dodger closed out the game for Texas.
Dodger wins – 87
Here we go guys!
Quasimodo says:
It takes just a single little thing one way or the other being the difference of a win or loss. And here we go! Thanks again for being there, Uncle Vin! Of coarse I'm influenced by the moment! I KNOW IT"S NOTHING LESS THAN 110 WINS!
That puts Crawford batting 9th and Puig batting 8th behind the pitcher batting 7th in my book.
A good first inning. What I liked most was Turner's at bat. Moving Seager to third with one out.
Idahoal I loved Turner's first at bat. Maybe the others saw that even Turner, a really great hitter, gave himself up, for the team. And maybe things will change.
I thought the exact same thing
That should of been no outs when Tuner was batting. Badger, the home plate umpire looks like a rookie umpire in Class A.
Don't know what is going to happen for the rest of the game but the ball that landed in front of Crawford that he never saw probably could have been caught instead of being a hit.
With Puig's hit, everyone in the starting line up, now have a hit, and Thompson just got his first hit, of the season. And Bum ten was close, but we don't mind if there is more!
Bum you really think so?
Didn't see this coming. A laugher on the road opener.
W, Utley will likely lead the league in hitting tonight. In the running for MVP.
The Dodgers were just waiting for the bell to ring.
To those of you who thought they couldn't turn it on when they needed to – yes they can!
You grumpy old men and one grumpy young man are soooooo going to be eating crow.
Injuries? The Dodgers have another guy… and another. Now, it's not all going to be perfect, but these guys are going to play. I have been trying to tell you!
Depth is when you have 10 on the DL and still have a two touchdown lead!
dodgerpatch says:
I find it pretty funny those who just basically wrote off the Dodgers entire season because odd three lackluster exhibition games.
Although not every game is going to be like this one, at least it counts. Truther is going to crawl back in his hole until the team loses a couple, in which case he'll make his predictable appearance.
It's one game.
Most runs scored in an Opener – 16 in '83. The Dodgers won 91 that year. They lost in the NLCS to the Phillies. I don't believe that particular history will repeat itself.
What a FAZtastic Dodger game!!! Loved it.
Anybody know how much the DBags paid Greinke for his 15.75 opening day ERA?
It requires some long division. You up for it ?

Explore the majestic landscape of the Flinders Ranges & Outback region. It's an experience which will not disappoint.


We will design and develop a lot of wonderful electronic products and accessories, and the first one in our blueprint is the USB hub for Raspberry Pi.
We are big fans of Raspberry Pi, and we do think Raspberry Pi needs such a USB hub to get better. We designed a 7-port USB hub, which has exactly the same size with Raspberry Pi, and it could be mounted above/below Raspberry with two cooper cylinders.
The development of this USB hub has begun for a while, and today we received the first prototype of this USB hub.
We will test it extremely, and do our best to improve the design. Hopefully we will see the final version at the beginning of year 2014.
We are happy to announce that, today the UUGear website is born!
There are still a lot of work to do before the website to be really functional. We got detailed planning and have everything in the pipeline, and we look forward to an exciting 2014!

First defined in 1995 by the United Nations, abject poverty is the most severe form of deprivation to basic needs and services that an individual or household can suffer. It is a form of poverty where there is a severe lack of food access, safe drinking water, basic sanitation, healthcare access, and even shelter. Some definitions of abject poverty also include a lack of educational resources or information as well.
Abject poverty is not dependent on income levels alone. It also includes access to services.
In 2008, the World Bank set an income level of $1.25 per day as an additional measure of abject poverty. Based on regular inflation rates, this would equal $1 per day when the UN set the original definition of abject poverty.
This is how we get the expression of people in penury living on just a dollar per day.
The most disturbing fact about abject poverty is that 22,000 children are dying, on average, every day because of the conditions they face. With 33% of the world's most poor living in India, this is where a majority of these deaths occur, but 10 countries in total account for 80% of the world's population that lives in abject poverty.
And that's just one fact. Here are others that are absolutely shocking considering our technological and distribution advances which exist today.
Extreme poverty exists in the developed world, including the United States. 30% of the top poorest areas in the US are located in North Carolina.
Israel has the highest poverty rate in the developed world at 21%, according to information provided by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.
Extreme poverty is being reduced around the world, but for women in the US, the rates have actually risen in recent years.
Nearly 3 billion people are still relying on biomass fuels to cook and heat their homes, including crop waste and manure.
Nearly 7 million children under the age of 5 die every year, with most issues that caused their death being completely preventable.
Children born in the world's poorest countries have a 1 in 6 chance of dying before they reach their fifth birthday. In the United States, the odds are closer to 1 in 165.
The richest 85 people in the world today control the same amount of wealth as the poorest 50% of the population.
1 in 4 people say that people in extreme poverty are too lazy to get a job. 30% say that those in extreme poverty have low moral values.
Donating the cost of one cup of coffee at Starbucks would double the income of a family living in abject poverty.
Foreign aid is inconsistent when it comes to dealing with abject poverty. About $300 per person is given to countries like China or Mexico to deal with extreme poverty, but the poorest countries in the world, like Zambia, get just $100 per person.
Despite disturbing facts like these, there is still hope to be found. Although children still account for nearly half of the world's most extreme poor, there are 1 billion fewer people living in abject poverty than just 20 years ago. Yet there is still a long way to go.
You see, only half of all the countries in the world today even collect data about abject poverty and how it relates to children. Just 1 in 3 people who live in abject poverty are covered by any type of social protection. In every country, children are more likely to be living in poverty than adults, especially when they live in a household that is headed by a single mother.
Many children in abject poverty also have education, shelter, and nutrition needs that are not being met, especially in places like sub-Saharan African. Yet perhaps the most disturbing fact of all is this: 25% of children are living in poverty in the world's richest countries.
And this is a problem of our own making. The poorest countries receive the least amount of aid because they have the highest levels of internal corruption. Because we attempt to avoid corruption, we do not send aid to where it is needed the most.
Yet countries like China and India, who are receiving large amounts of aid for extreme poverty, also have space programs that are funded.
If the wealthy will not take care of their own, how can they be convinced to take care of others? This is why abject poverty is a universal challenge that affects us all. We cannot rely on others to stop. We must work together to continue eliminating abject poverty.
How Close Are We to Eliminating Abject Poverty?
For the last 30 years, there has been a steady and consistent decline in the number of people who are living in abject poverty. In 1990, more than 40% of the world's population qualified under at least one definition as living in penury. As of 2011, that percentage had been cut in half, to just 20%.
That looks like a good figure, but 20% of 7 billion people is still a lot of people.
The UN, World Bank, and United States have set a goal of eliminating abject poverty by the year 2030. 96% of those living in this form of poverty reside in Southern Asian, sub-Saharan African, the West Indies, Eastern Asia, and portions of the Pacific. India and China alone account for more than half of the total population that lives in abject poverty.
A fragile country occurs when there are cycles of violence which occur on a frequent basis. This violence creates weak institutions that have very little power to govern. In return, this creates a low level of growth, which creates a lack of employment opportunities, when then creates more stress on the population at large.
When people in extreme poverty are triggered by stress, there will generally be one of two outcomes: violence or addiction. This further weakens the infrastructure and growth a nation can experience, which reinforces the conditions of extreme poverty that exist. That is the trap.
One of the largest drivers of poverty is something that Professor Hans Rosling describes as "1+1=4." Here's why: in the poorest nations of the world, the average family size tends to be the highest. The average mother living in abject poverty has 5 children. This is because one of those children is likely to die before adulthood.
By having more children, a mother can roll the dice to try to get out of poverty. All it takes is one child to find success in order for them to support the entire household. Sometimes this gamble works. More often than not, however, what happens is that the number of abject poor in that localized region will double.
There must also be a recognition that extreme poverty is not something that is stable. People can rise above poverty, only to fall back into it. For many people, the issue that brings them back into poverty is a health crisis. Something as simple as a broken leg and having to pay a medical bill to treat it is enough to drive people back into poverty. Diseases like malaria or tuberculosis are also contributing factors.
Even when people who come from poor countries work in high-wage jobs in the developed world, a majority of the wages they earn goes back to pay for family health crises. Something as simple as subsidizing medical expenses could go a long way toward helping people get out and then stay out of poverty.
But the fastest way to reduce poverty is to educate women. When both a mother and father are able to read and write, those households tend to have the lowest overall child mortality rates. Women are also in a better position to understand priorities when it comes to household management. For example: when women do earn an income when living in abject poverty and in a location where malaria is present, they are more likely than men to dedicate resources toward purchasing mosquito netting.
And women who are not reliant on a husband, spouse, or partner for food or money has much more power to look after her children in a way that supports them so together they can work their way out of poverty.
This is how we end abject poverty. We take an action, every day, and keep multiplying that action. By working together, we really can eliminate this issue within the next decade.


From a young age, growing up in a remote part of the Highlands, I have always been fascinated by Wildlife. Every time you venture out is a new and exciting experience, my goal is to share these experiences with you.
I want to share this wildlife and the outdoors with whoever is interested. Our proactive approach to viewing wildlife enables you to see it in its natural surroundings, using your Instinct to allow you to get that perfect sighting. I believe that going out and earning that glimpse of an animal is as big a part of the reward as any photograph or memory.
From regularly monitoring deer numbers to taking part in annual Capercaillie surveys allows me to keep in touch with the wildlife and conservation issues that surround us. Over the years I have enjoyed watching much of this wildlife flourish. In fact the estate on which I was brought up and base a large amount of my work, has just won the prestigious Scottish Wildlife Estates award.

The SIU COPE (SIU Carbondale Open-Access Publishing Equity) Fund seeks to advance the use of open access as a means of distributing the research and creative work of the Southern Illinois University Carbondale community by providing financial support to cover the fees charged for open access publication.
Previously funded articles can be found in OpenSIUC.
Email ir@lib.siu.edu for more information.
SIU COPE grants are available to faculty, including nontenure track faculty, and graduate students on the Carbondale campus. Only one author per article may apply. Authors may not submit applications to cover the fees for a journal when they or any of their co-authors hold a financial interest in the publishing company that publishes the journal.
Only those fees associated with open access publishing are eligible for support. Costs for reprints, color illustration fees, non-open access page charges, administrative charges and other fees are not supported.
Articles whose underlying research was funded by grants that allow funds to be used for open access fees are not eligible for funding.
Disbursement is determined on a first come first served basis, provided all guidelines are met. The SIU Cope Fund review committee will confirm eligibility.
The SIU COPE Fund is part of Morris Library's commitment to support open access, which also includes management of the SIU institutional repository, OpenSIUC. Acceptance of open access grants requires submission of the supported article to OpenSIUC within three months of publication. Questions about OpenSIUC, including details about the submission process, can be emailed to opensiuc@lib.siu.edu.
