Today, I felt very alone. I was surrounded by a lot of people whom I call my friends. I smiled. I laughed. I shared jokes. But there was this one person, whom I felt very far from and it made me feel alone.
What a lonely word, right? Or maybe not.
We've all felt alone at times. Sometimes, we are alone physically, when no one is around us, and sometimes, we are alone mentally, when everyone is around us, yet we feel… alone. Sometimes we want to be alone, and sometimes, we have no choice but to be alone.
It's such a weird feeling, right?
Some people want to be alone while others fear being alone. Some embrace being alone and some, on the other hand, dread being alone. Some may even feel both. They are scared to be alone and constantly surround themselves with people to be not alone, yet mentally they still feel alone.
Do you get it? I don't.
I don't get the word alone. I don't get why there are such different feelings related to alone. I don't get why even while having fun I felt alone because of one person.
What are your thoughts on the word "alone"?
Alone has its own beauty. It brings sorrow in the beginning. It might even sometimes tear us apart. We might lose faith in people and on ourselves maybe.
But in the end the person that emerges from the stage of being alone is a decisive and victorious individual. Someone who can conquer the world. Someone who is infinite times stronger than the stage of being alone. Because being alone teaches who you actually can be and desire to be. And lets you forget who you wanted to become for the people around you.
That's a very unique perspective. I never thought of it that way.
Oh definitely! I totally agree that alone could be very well associated with peace but couldn't it be associated with conflict as well? Conflict between you and your thoughts?
Alone can be peace and conflict.
Someone's you can be with other people and still be alone.
It all depends on the emotional framework.
That is as true as it can get.
I find peace when I'm Alone . But I'm not feeling lonely when I'm alone.
I definitely do. It shows you are self-content and honestly, that's something every hard to find in today's world. You're very rare buddy! Stay the same!
I've had my fair share of alone time. Sometimes happy, sometimes saddening. The more I found joy in interacting with others, the tougher it became to enjoy being alone as I once did before.
Alone means you wont kill anyone when you swing your sword .
We get disturbed sometimes. When we are too much conscious about ourselves , we might hurt somebody else unconsciously .
Being alone is not at all bad, its actually fair. Atleast you are saved from the guilt you'll feel if you hurt someone you dont wanna.
So being alone is a good thing in my opinion. Coz if you have many people in your life, you have that many strings pulling you behind.

Matt Hardy Ho'ing it Up
Written by The Wrestling Professor on April 11, 2005 in Pro Wrestling News
Hardy Boy Sleeps Around Like Crazy in Lita Aftermath
CHARLOTTE, NC — In light of the public love triangle this year in which Matt Hardy kicked Lita (Amy Dumas) out of his house over an affair with Edge (Adam Copeland), Hardy has gotten over the breakup by "Sleeping with anything that walks," he reported Tuesday.
Hardy, who achieved major fame in WWE while tag teaming with brother Jeff, has been on the injured reserve list for the past several months.
His singles career appeared to be taking off under the booking direction of Paul Heyman in 2002, but then floundered after getting on the bad side of WWE talent relations executive John Laurinaitis.
Hardy asked to be transferred to the Raw roster, to be closer to then-girlfriend Lita.
But after the breakup with Lita, which was precipitated by an affair with Edge (formerly a close friend of the Hardys), Hardy went public with his feelings that touched many.
According to several close friends, Hardy was deeply hurt and felt betrayed by two of his closest friends.
No more, says Hardy.
Matt with his "Monday girl."
"I started thinking, Hey, I'm Matt Hardy," said the wrestler who refers to himself as "V1," or "Version 1."
"When my music hits, you can hear thousands of women screaming. I'm rich, I'm famous, and I'm handsome. Basically, I can pick and choose who I want. Why in the f*ck should I be sobbing over Lita? She hasn't even looked good in a few years, to be honest with ya."
Shane Helms, a close friend of Hardy's who wrestles as the Hurricane, said he has been startled by the change in Matt.
"I'm like, Wowww!" exclaimed the light heavyweight. "I've seen wrestlers with hot women before, but Matt is just on a tear. He's like Tommy Lee times 10. Every day, every night, every week, it's f*ck f*ck f*ck. He's a mean sex machine; always at it. He's got a woman for every day of the week. They climb the house and come through the window, seemingly constantly. It's like, Lita who??"
Hardy first dated Lita in 1999, just as his career took off. Because of that, he "Never had a chance to enjoy the fringe benefits of stardom," he said.
"John Cena hit it big, and started sleeping with two, three, four women a night. Me? I hit it big and was stuck with Lita. She was cute and all, but it's the same ass. I craved new ass, and wasn't allowed to indulge in it."
With Lita out of the way, now he can.
"And the ass is plentiful," he said in between sex appointments. "The women felt sorry for me, and the more I appeared hurt, the more they tried to please me. So now I just fake crying, and they'll do anything. It's a super gimmick, definitely better than V1! (laughs)"
Matt with his "Tuesday girl."
And with the time off to heal his injury, he has been able to enjoy the benefits without the demands of the job.
"Dare I say this is the greatest time of my life?" smiled Hardy, glowing with happiness.
"I'm getting paid to get laid. And I don't even have to go to work. Look at Edge. That piece of feces might have Lita, but he's breaking his body in ladder matches. He's bumping every night. Me? I'm humping every night. You tell me whose life you'd rather have. It's a good time to be Matt Hardy."
The flood of women is so great that Hardy's longtime friend, Shannon Moore, has been trying to share in the festivities.
"I just suffered a bad car accident myself," said Moore via his cell phone. "So I can't drive. Matt, he just sends his leftovers to me. They literally drive here, ride me, suck me off, and leave. That's what I call physical rehab."
As for brother Jeff? Hardy chuckles at the question.
"Hahaha, no. Jeff don't need my help, that's for sure," explains Hardy. "Believe it or not, he gets even more poontang than I do, even now. He's on the road, he's in a band. Plus, he's around Dusty Rhodes, and Dusty pulls in all the chicks."
In the meantime, Matt is in no hurry to return to the ring.
Matt surrounded by several girls he's currently sleeping with.
"This is what life is supposed to be about. This is my purpose in life: to bang ho's. I feel rejuvenated," expressed the ladder match legend.
"Kicking (Lita) to the curb was the smartest thing I ever did. Why limit myself to one woman, an average one at that, when I can have multiple horny chicks throw themselves at me non-stop? I can't believe me it took this long to figure it out."
And Edge? Hardy remains bitter, but his opinion is changing.
"At first, my reaction to (Edge) was 'F*ck you!' But now that I see this new life I'm living, and I wanna say to him, 'Thank you!' Thank you for taking that washed-up Cyndie Lauper wanna-be out of my life and paving the way for hot, fresh, young, new ass."

Q: Exporting data from multiple lists I need to export data from multiple document libraries in sharepoint 2007. The data is stored in many thousands libraries across a few sites. All libraries have identical columns definitions and usually contain only a small number of documents each.
I am using sharepoint services.
First calling GetListCollection() to get all lists from the site, and the call GetListItems() for every single document library.
The process of querying each library separately is very slow and time consuming.
Is there a way to get all data from multiple document lists in a single call?

A: A SPSiteDataQuery may be of use to you. Have a google around it and see if this would help you. The lists would have to be of the same type though
CAML would certainly increase performance.
Cheers
Truez

Frankolovo je naselje ob potoku Tesnica, na severovzhodnem robu Celjske kotline, v Občini Vojnik.

Zgodovina
Rimske najdbe iz Lipe ter potek rimske ceste Celje–Ptuj kažejo na to, da je bilo območje že zgodaj poseljeno.

Frankolovo je nastalo leta 1955, z združitvijo naselij Loka in Stražica in se pričelo razvijati na križišču lokalnih poti ob glavni cesti Vojnik-Slovenske Konjice.

Znamenitosti
Ob potoku Tesnica je hipotermalni izvir (21 °C), nižje v dolini, pri odcepu ceste proti Črešnjicam, je urejeno manjše kopališče s plavalnim bazenom.

V središču Frankolovega oziroma v nekdaj samostojnem naselju »Stražica« stoji »graščina Frankolovo« (tudi »dvorec Sternstein«), zgrajena v začetku 17. stoletja.

Od ceste proti Stranicam je v razširitvi soteske odcep lokalne ceste, ki vodi skoraj do ruševin gradu Lindek, zgrajenega v 13. stoletju.

Ob cesti med Frankolovim in Stranicami stoji grobišče t.i. »frankolovskim žrtvam« ter dva spomenika z imeni 98 obešenih in dveh ustreljenih talcev.

The Health & Safety Executive places a legal duty on employers to ensure, so far as reasonably practicable, the health, safety, and welfare of employees, and to ensure that employees and others are kept safe. The main pieces of relevant legislation include: The Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974 (HSW Act) Employers have a legal duty under this Act to ensure, so far as it is reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare at work of their employees.
Decide what to do to prevent or control the risk and develop a clear management plan to achieve this.
Employers must notify their enforcing authority in the event of an accident at work to any employee resulting in death, major injury, incapacity for normal work for seven or more days. This includes any act of non-consensual physical violence done to a person at work. More information is available at the HSE RIDDOR pages.
(b) Employers must inform, and consult with, employees in good time on matters relating to their health and safety.
Employee representatives, either appointed by recognised trade unions under (a) or elected under (b) may make representations to their employer on matters affecting the health and safety of those they represent.

We have been highlighting the continuous open market purchases of Repro-Med Systems (OOTC:REPR) shares by Joseph Manko of Horton Capital Management the last several months. The last filing was on February 17,2016 which disclosed a purchase of 21,900 shares bringing Horton Capital's stake to over 4.6 million shares.
On March 9, 2016, REPR issued a press release responding to an FDA warning letter.
In our March 11, 2016 email we stated we would be watching the filings closely to see if Horton Capital buys more shares, as we believed this would indicate it has confidence that the company will likely resolve the FDA concerns or that the concerns may have been overblown in the first place.
Yesterday, shortly after the close Joseph Manko filed a Form 4 showing he had purchased another 70,500 shares at open market prices.
On April 1, 2016, we stated our belief that if the FDA investigation ends with minor adjustments to rectify labeling issues as opposed to a costly FDA decision to reclassify REPR's flagship product from class II to class III, shares will regain and surpass recent highs of $0.59. However, the risk of harsher sanctions cannot be ruled out, such as product recalls which would obviously have an adverse effect on future revenues.

The @template tag allows classes and functions to implement type parameter-like functionality found in many other languages.
While @template tag order matters (i.e. for key-value pair extending), names don't matter outside the scope of the class or function in which they're declared.
Psalm also uses @template annotations in its stubbed versions of PHP array functions e.g.
You can also extend one templated class with another, e.g.
Psalm has support for a number of builtin classes and interfaces that you can extend/implement in your own code.

Marketing & Sales Executives of Detroit (MSED) - Professional Development Seminar: "Building Brand Value"
Professional Development Seminar: "Building Brand Value"
Brand value is determined by the end user of the product. The objective is to make the brand experience attractive to the customer and profitable for the company that owns the brand. Tim Smith, President & CEO of Skidmore Studio will talk about how to effectively build brand value and will explain the unique approach used by his company.
Skidmore Studio will host this event at their office in the Madison Building in Detroit. Space is very limited. Sign up early to reserve your spot for this dynamic presentation.
Tim Smith is President and CEO of Skidmore Studio, a 55-year-old creative studio based in Detroit. With nearly 26 years of professional creative experience, Tim guides clients with a focus on design thinking. He is an advocate for risk taking, while at the same time insisting that brands connect to their audience with authentic messaging.
It is with this goal that Tim relocated Skidmore Studio to Detroit's historic Madison Building in 2011. He is seen as a leading force in Detroit's revitalization efforts for this decision, which brought 25 creative professionals to the city.
Tim joined Skidmore in 2001 and has transformed the business from one that worked almost exclusively with advertising agencies to one that services small- to medium-sized companies from a range of industries. This strategic shift was instrumental in ensuring the longevity and the growth of the company.
Prior to coming to Skidmore, Tim held the position of Senior Vice President of Marketing and Communications at Village Green, one of the nation's largest luxury apartment owners/developers. He is a former journalist and frequent contributor to publications such as Crain's Detroit Business, The Detroit News and the Detroiter.

Highlighted Book:
Wrestling the Word: "The Hebrew Scriptures and the Christian Believer"
by Carolyn J. Sharp. To be honest, I chose to read this book in December because it was short (140 pages) and sounded interesting to me. However, it did not take long to realize that this was not going to be an easy read. Truthfully, I suspect it is on the reading lists of some seminaries' courses (and not the 100-level ones). And, to be fair, as the newsletter goes to press I have not finished reading it. In fact, I may not finish it at this point in the year. I made a poor choice for a busy month.
However, if you are familiar with, and excited by terms like "exegesis," "hermeneutics," and other two-dollar words, this may well be a book that you could pick up and read easily. If my cursory understanding of the premise of the book is accurate, Sharp seeks to raise self-awareness of the ways people - from biblical scholars to laypeople - approach reading the Bible. Being aware of how we approach reading and studying scripture, the approaches others have to this endeavor, and the strengths, weaknesses, and value of these various approaches can help us to have a deeper and fuller experience reading scripture. This can be particularly helpful when approaching the Hebrew scriptures ("Old Testament").
Accidental Saints, Finding God in All the Wrong People
by author Nadia Bolz-Weber
Tattooed, angry, and profane, this former standup comic turned pastor stubbornly, sometimes hilariously, resists the God she feels called to serve.
Nadia is the founding pastor of House for All Sinners and Saints in Denver, Colorado. She is author of the New York Times best-selling memoir Pastrix. Nadia has been featured on CNN, the BBC World Service, and NPR's Morning Edition, and in the Washington Post ...
In Accidental Saints, Nadia invites readers into a surprising encounter with what she calls "a religious but not-so-spiritual life." Tattooed, angry, and profane, this former standup comic turned pastor stubbornly, sometimes hilariously, resists the God she feels called to serve. But God keeps showing up in the least likely people—a church-loving agnostic, a drag queen, a felonious Bishop, and a gun-toting member of the NRA.
As she lives and worships alongside these "accidental saints," Nadia is swept into firsthand encounters with grace—a gift that often feels less like being wrapped in a warm blanket and more like being hit by a blunt instrument. But by this grace, people are transformed in ways they couldn't have been on their own.
In a time when many have rightly become disillusioned with Christianity, Accidental Saints demonstrates what happens when ordinary people share bread and wine, struggle with scripture together, and tell each other the truth about their real lives. This unforgettable account of their faltering steps toward wholeness will ring true for believer and skeptic alike.
Told in Nadia's trademark confessional style, Accidental Saints is the stunning next work from one of today's most important religious voices.
Note from David Keesey-Berg on Accidental Saints
The GEMS have begun reading and discussing this book and the initial impression has been very positive. Chapter five is particularly interesting to us because it describes the close friendship that developed between Nadia and our former Bishop Bruce Burnside. In chapter sixteen we hear of her contacts with our own Pastor Nick, who was a colleague of Bruce's at St. Stephen's Lutheran in Monona.

The Sheltie (also known as the Shetland sheepdog) originally hailed from the Shetland Islands. They were used to herd flocks of sheep, cattle, and ponies. The dogs were very obedient and great herding dogs.
The Sheltie eventually made its way to the mainland and was used as a herding dog. In 1914 the Sheltie was officially recognized as its own breed Shetland sheepdog by the English Kennel Club.
Many have confused the Sheltie with being smaller Collies. While they probably both come from a similar ancestor, they are different and distinct breeds with their characteristics.
The Sheltie is an active dog who needs the chance to get active every day. Shelties are natural watchdogs that are protective. They will bark if they notice something new in their domain.
You will want to work with your dog to train them, so they know when it is ok to bark and when they need to stay quiet. They are brilliant and quite capable of learning to distinguish between situations.
The Sheltie is a great family dog and will love to participate in activities and play. The Sheltie can be trained quickly. The Shetland sheepdog is also well adept at competing in obedience and agility competitions.
One method for training your Shetland sheepdog is to use clicker training. Clicker training can be a handy way to train your dog. The basic concept is that when your dog performs the desired behavior, you click the clicker and give the dog a treat.
As they learn this action and you are consistent with the clicker and treat, they will associate the clicker with the treat. Eventually, you will be able to use the clicker without the treat, only giving the gift on occasions.
A right place to start is learning the sit command. Raise your hand up displaying a stop signal and say "sit." Once your dog complies, praise them, click the clicker and give them the treat.
You should repeat this many times until your dog gains the association between the word "sit" and hand signal. Once your dog understands the command and has also made the association with the clicker you can wean off the treat each time.
Once your Sheltie has mastered the sit, you can move on to the Sit – Stay. Prompt your dog to sit, then slowly step back while saying the command "stay" and holding your hand up in a stop sign motion.
If your dog stays for a few seconds, praise them and give them the come command with the treat and clicker. Slowly extend the time they need to keep for the reward. Eventually, use the clicker without the gifts for some of your training.
Working with your Sheltie on how to heel is a vital training step which will make it easier to walk your dog. Activity is essential for your Shetland sheepdog, so you want to make it enjoyable.
First, you will need a place without distractions that is quiet. Have your dog sit on your left side. When you are going to begin to walk, you will hold the leash in both hands, your left hand holding it out over the dog, ready to correct your dog, and your right containing the loop.
Once you are prepared to go, you will say "your dog's name, heel." You are letting your dog know this is a command and that you want him to move. As you walk, if your dog runs ahead of you, once he gets to the end of his leash you will say "heel" loudly. Then you will want to turn around to the right and walk in that direction.
Once your dog catches up to you, praise him. Keep praising him when he is successfully walking with you. You can also use the clicker treat when your Sheltie is heeling.
Start with your Sheltie on your left again and give the command to heel and begin to walk. As soon as they move away from your left leg, you will give them a correcting jerk with the leash and say "no" while turning around to the right and walking the other way. Keep repeating this, and your dog will catch on.
Shelties have been known to bark, sometimes when you don't want them to. Training them to bark and to be silent can help prevent annoying barking.
Try ringing the doorbell or doing something that you know triggers your dog to bark. When your dog barks, give her a treat and use the clicker. Then put your hand up right in front of her face in a stop sign motion and say "quiet." As soon as she is quiet, use the clicker and give her a treat.
Keep repeating this to teach your Sheltie what "quiet" means and when it is ok to bark. It will make her an excellent watchdog but not an annoying pet.
Shelties are great pets that can learn many things and be excellent companions. And, if you train them properly as explained, you'll make them excellent guard dogs.

12:58am: Young hurler Yordi Rosario and $500K in international spending capacity are going to the Bucs, Heyman tweets. The deal has now been announced.
12:10pm: The Pirates will receive a "young pitcher" and an unstated amount of international bonus pool availability, per Jon Heyman of Fanced (via Twitter).
10:55am: The White Sox have struck a deal with the Pirates to acquire righty Ivan Nova, according to Ken Rosenthal and Robert Murray of The Athletic (via Twitter). The return is not yet known; the deal will not be finalized until the teams have completed a review of medicals.
At first glance, this is quite an interesting swap owing to its potential downstream ramifications. Moving Nova will clear $8.5MM of payroll for the Bucs, who could put those funds to use in pursuing other players. The White Sox, meanwhile, have continued to make good on their stated intention to bolster their MLB roster in the near term.
Nova, who'll turn 32 early next year, has been a sturdy rotation piece since landing in Pittsburgh at the 2016 trade deadline. He re-signed with the club in the ensuing winter on a three-year deal that expires at the end of the 2019 campaign.
Over the past two campaigns, Nova carries a 4.16 ERA with 6.3 K/9 and 1.8 BB/9 over 348 frames. He's not generating as many grounders as he once did, but still has drawn worm burners on over 45% of the balls put in play against him. Meanwhile, Nova has been hurt by the long ball, allowing more than 1.4 per nine since the start of 2017.
It's not a terribly exciting profile, but it's one with value. Nova is still working in the 93 to 94 mph range with his pair of fastballs, while his swinging-strike rate has sat above eight percent — right in line with his career average. There's good reason to anticipate that he'll mostly be the same pitcher in 2019.
For the Chicago organization, adding Nova will help bolster a staff that has bid adieu to veteran James Shields. The club could certainly stand to add more arms, though it'll also continue to decade at least two or three spots to its preexisting rotation options. Previously, the South Siders added veteran reliever Alex Colome to anchor the bullpen.
Interesting as it will be to see what else the White Sox do the rest of the way, the Pirates are now a potentially intriguing wild card on the market. Having dealt for Chris Archer and Keone Kela over the summer, the Bucs certainly seem positioned to add more pieces. After today's trade, they'll have more free payroll space to work with than they did at the outset of the offseason, even after having already signed Jung Ho Kang and Lonnie Chisenhall. Of course, moving Nova also leaves the Pittsburgh rotation with one less reliable arm. The organization could fill the opening from within (with Nick Kingham and eventually top prospect Mitch Keller) and/or pursue cheaper depth pieces via free agency.
The Cubs are unsure if injured right-hander Yu Darvish will return before next month's All-Star break, manager Joe Maddon told Patrick Mooney of The Athletic and other reporters Sunday. Darvish has been on the shelf for two weeks with right tricep tendinitis, and even though he doesn't have any structural damage, he'll end up sitting out nearly two months (if not even more time) if he doesn't come back prior to the July 17 All-Star Game. Of course, in an ideal world for Darvish and the Cubs, he'd be representing the team in the Midsummer Classic after landing a six-year, $126MM guarantee in free agency over the winter. Instead, not only has Darvish endured multiple DL stints (one for the flu), but the 31-year-old has posted a career-worst 4.95 ERA/4.80 FIP over 40 innings when he has taken the mound.
The Pirates activated righty Ivan Nova from the disabled list and optioned fellow righty Nick Kingham to Triple-A prior to Sunday's game. Nova returned after a finger injury shelved him for two weeks. His presence is unfortunate for Kingham, who continued his strong rookie season Saturday with 6 1/3 innings of two-run ball in a loss to the Cubs. Overall, the 26-year-old Kingham has pitched to a 3.82 ERA with 35 strikeouts against seven walks in 35 1/3 innings (six starts).
Additionally, the Pirates optioned utility player Adam Frazier to make room for the addition of catcher Jacob Stallings from Triple-A. It's a somewhat surprising demotion for Frazier, who offered league-average offensive production (.283/.347/.402) over 614 plate appearances from 2016-17 while seeing action at several positions. Frazier's defensive versatility has continued this year, as he has lined up at second base and all three outfield spots, but his batting line has fallen to .237/.318/.356 in 152 PAs.
The Marlins have removed Stan Meek as their vice president of scouting, according to Jeff Passan of Yahoo Sports. Meek was a confidant of previous owner Jeffrey Loria, having worked under him in Montreal before following him to Florida in 2002. The Marlins' Meek-led drafts were "disastrous" in recent years, Passan observes, though Jon Heyman of FanRag points out that he did have some hits during his tenure in Giancarlo Stanton, Jose Fernandez, Christian Yelich and J.T. Realmuto. Given that Meek is signed through next season, he could stay in the organization in a different role, Heyman writes.
Pirates righty Ivan Nova seems reasonably close to a return, as Bill Brink of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. He received good reports after throwing a pair of simulated innings, suggesting that his sprained ring finger won't keep him out very long. Obviously the club will wait to see how he responds before moving things forward, but it seems reasonable to think that Nova could make it back in relatively short order given that he last pitched on May 24th. The Bucs would certainly like not only for Nova to return, but also for him to turn things around on the bump. He carries a 4.96 ERA through 61 2/3 frames, though his peripherals have been in his typical range and suggest he has been a bit unfortunate.
The Nationals placed righty Jeremy Hellickson on the 10-day DL with a hamstring strain, but indications are that it's minor, as Dan Kolko of MASNsports.com reports on Twitter. It's not even clear that the Nats will need to find a fill-in starter, as they won't need an extra rotation piece for a decent stretch. The DL placement, then, will actually leave the team with some added roster flexibility for the time being. Of course, it'd be preferable if there wasn't an injury issue at all. Hellickson has been a gem of a minor-league signing thus far for D.C., turning in 43 1/3 innings of 2.28 ERA ball over nine starts.
In a health matter of equal or greater significance for the Nationals, MASNsports.com's Mark Zuckerman covers the latest on second baseman Daniel Murphy. Though it seems he's in solid form with the bat, Murphy is still not looking to be at full speed on his legs. For the Nats — and, particularly, their medical staff — there are some tough questions as to how to bring Murphy along. It seems uncertain at this point whether the club can really expect him to function as a full-fledged, regular second baseman this year, which could pose some rather complicated roster questions. The situation is also concerning for the 33-year-old Murphy, of course, who had seemed primed to hit the open market this winter as a high-end hitter.
What's most amazing about Matt Kemp's remarkable two-month run with the Dodgers, Jeff Sullivan of Fangraphs writes, is not the fact that he's off to a .344/.374/.568 slash. (Indeed, it seems there's reason to anticipate those numbers coming back to earth, given his .400 BABIP.) Rather, it's the fact that Kemp is suddenly grading as a solid defender in the corners, allowing him to rack up an impressive 1.8 fWAR in just under two hundred plate appearances. Sullivan examines the defensive component in an interesting piece that's well worth a full read.
Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw said Saturday that he'll be ready to rejoin their rotation in five days, though it'll be up to the team whether that happens, according to Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times. Kershaw's four-inning simulated game on Saturday went well enough that he may be able to avoid a rehab assignment, despite having been on the disabled list since May 7 with biceps tendinitis. The left-hander is part of a large group of important Dodgers who have missed significant time this year, thus helping to explain the reigning NL champions' 23-27 start. LA has won seven of its past eight, however, and is within a manageable 3.5 games of first-place Colorado in the NL West.
Pirates starter Ivan Nova has a strained ligament in his right index finger and may be headed to the DL, Rob Biertempfel of The Athletic tweets. To prepare for Nova's potential absence, the Pirates had their Triple-A affiliate pull righty Nick Kingham from his start after just one inning on Friday, per Mason Wittner of MLB.com. The 26-year-old Kingham made the first three big league starts of his career earlier this season and held his own, with a a 3.44 ERA/2.56 FIP and outstanding strikeout and walk rates (10.31 K/9, .98 BB/9) across 18 1/3 innings. While Nova hasn't been nearly as effective as Kingham, he has logged playable numbers over 11 starts and 61 1/3 frames (4.96 ERA/4.28 FIP, 6.86 K/9, 1.46 BB/9 and a 50.7 percent groundball rate).
Giants second baseman Joe Panik is on track to come off the DL next weekend, Kerry Crowley of the Bay Area News Group suggests. In the meantime, he'll open a four- or five-game rehab assignment on Monday. Panik will end up missing upward of a month after undergoing left thumb surgery in late April. He hasn't played since April 27, and fill-in Alen Hanson has been out for two weeks, leaving the Giants with the underwhelming duo of Kelby Tomlinson and Miguel Gomez as their options at the keystone.
Catcher Kevin Plawecki could rejoin the Mets on Monday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com writes. Plawecki landed on the shelf with a hairline fracture in his left hand on April 13, when the Mets also announced that fellow backstop Travis d'Arnaud would undergo season-ending Tommy John surgery. New York then received terrible behind-the-plate productions from subs Tomas Nido and Jose Lobaton in the ensuing few weeks, leading it to acquire Devin Mesoraco from the Reds for righty Matt Harvey in a May 8 trade. The deal has worked out well for the Mets thus far, as Mesoraco has performed respectably enough that they'll be able to ease Plawecki back into action when he returns, DiComo notes.
The broad health arena appears to offer great potential for competitive advantage to individual MLB organizations. We have heard of medical and dietary advancements for various teams, for example, and there's surely lots going on that isn't being discussed fully in public. For the Cardinals, one area of focus is on training, but it's all happening as part of a broader initiative, as Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch writes. The club is building up a "department of performance" that will combine training, medical, and other related functions under one roof.
Royals first baseman Eric Hosmer tells Rustin Dodd of the Kansas City Star that he's not looking for changes to break out of his early-season slump. "I know I've been through it long enough now to realize you've just got to stick with your approach and it will change," said Hosmer. Of course, the 27-year-old's offensive malaise ties into a broader picture of uneven production over his seven-year MLB career, which has continued to raise questions about his earning power on the upcoming free-agent market. And as Dodd writes, Hosmer has several teammates who are also struggling quite a bit early on. If there's a silver lining to the club's 7-and-12 start, though, it's the fact that the division leaders haven't exactly sprinted out of the gates. Entering today's action, the Indians and Tigers sit just 3.5 games up.
The White Sox were able to get a look at lefty Carlos Rodon yesterday, as he played catch under the watch of pitching coach Don Cooper, as Dan Hayes of CSN Chicago writes. But that doesn't mean there's any further clarity to the question of when the talented southpaw will be back to the majors. Details are murky on Rodon, whose biceps injury initially seemed minor. As Hayes notes, the club had initially hoped to see Rodon push past 200 frames this year, but that's obviously no longer a viable target.
8:15pm: FanRag's Jon Heyman tweets the financial breakdown of the deal. Nova receives a $2MM signing bonus and will take home $7MM in 2017 before earning salaries of $8.5MM in 2018 and $8.5MM in 2019.
12:30pm: The Pirates entered the offseason with uncertainty throughout their rotation but added some stability on Tuesday, announcing that they've re-signed right-hander Ivan Nova to a three-year contract. The deal reportedly guarantees Nova $26MM and allows the Legacy Agency client to earn up to an additional $2MM per year via incentives, meaning it can max out at $32MM over the three-year term.
The deal ensures that Nova, who turns 30 on January 12, will remain with the team that seemingly revived his career after he was dealt from the Yankees to the Pirates on August 1. Nova underwent Tommy John surgery in 2014 and had struggled to regain his old form since, with middling numbers in 2015 and then a 4.90 ERA over 97 1/3 innings (starting 15 of 21 games) with New York in 2016.
In Pittsburgh, however, Nova became the latest reclamation project to thrive under pitching coach Ray Searage. Nova posted a 3.06 ERA, 7.2 K/9 and an unreal 17.33 K/BB rate over 64 2/3 innings in a Pirates uniform, with just three walks against 52 strikeouts. The move to a less-friendly ballpark for home run hitters was also a boon to Nova, who had long struggled to keep the ball in the yard over his career. Always a strong ground-ball pitcher, Nova had a career-best 53.6% grounder rate over his 162 combined innings for both teams in 2016.
The stark contrast between the Yankees' Nova and the Pirates' Nova led to rather an interesting free agent case for the righty, as it wasn't clear how teams would view that 64 2/3-inning sample against the rest of Nova's career. MLBTR ranked Nova 10th on our list of the winter's Top 50 free agents with a projection of a four-year, $52MM deal given the severe lack of quality starting pitching and J.A. Happ's successful 2016 season serving as a model of how a Pirates revival project could thrive outside of PNC Park.
Instead, Nova rather surprisingly ended up signing for less guaranteed money than what Happ received (three years, $36MM) from the Blue Jays last winter despite being over four years younger. Looking at the big picture of this offseason, it seems that teams in general preferred to spend their pitching dollars on relievers as opposed to the thin starting piching market. As FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal points out, only three other starters (Rich Hill, Edinson Volquez and Charlie Morton) signed multi-year deals this winter. Even Jeremy Hellickson, thought to be the winter's top available starter, accepted a qualifying offer to remain with the Phillies due to some concerns about his market, though Hellickson was rather a different case since he had draft pick compensation attached to his services.
Greg Genske, Nova's agent, said in mid-November that his client had received offers in the three-year/$36MM range, though there was very little buzz about Nova on the rumor mill. The only club significantly linked to Nova was, in fact, Pittsburgh. The Pirates ardently tried to sign him to an extension prior to hitting free agency, though since Nova was reportedly asking for five years and $70MM to forego the open market, it isn't surprising that the Bucs chose to wait. Nova stated that he wanted to remain with the Pirates, so it's possible he could have turned down a slightly larger offer in order to stay in a familiar and comfortable environment.
It certainly looks like a good signing for the Pirates, who went into the offseason prioritizing run prevention via both improved pitching and defense. The Bucs add a veteran arm and (if Nova's turn-around is for real) maybe even a possible ace to a young rotation headlined by Gerrit Cole and Jameson Taillon, with Chad Kuhl, Steven Brault, Tyler Glasnow and Drew Hutchison battling it out for the final two rotation slots.
Robert Murray of FanRag Sports reported the agreement and the terms, while FanRag's Jon Heyman tweeted word of the incentives in the deal.

We've just returned from our second trip using the service of Mindy's Miles Travel Agency and we're able to say we've experienced nothing but the most outstanding of service from our agent Mindy! We traveled with what became the confidence that she was looking after us from a distance and had our best interests at heart. A phone call the night before to make sure we were settled into our hotel by the airport, another checkin-in the morning of departure and Facebook messages to check on us during our time away to make sure everything was ok in our far-away tropical locale. We experienced delays from our air carrier on our second trip and Mindy went to bat for us to secure vouchers for meals during our delay and even discounts on future air travel. Had we booked that vacation thru Expedia, we would've been out time and money and no one to lean on. So glad she was just a phone call away and took our delay personally while she worked to keep us in the loop to what was going on. She's our agent and we're hooked on Mindy's Miles Travel Agency for ALL our future ventures! Thanks Mindy.

Islanders website: Has the preview of today's 1pm game in Newark against the Devils.
Devils only loss in five games was in a shootout to Atlanta, with two wins against Ottawa. Martin Brodeur is 7-2-2 this month without giving up more than three goals in a game. Patrik Elias has two goals and ten assists in 11 games this month.
Colin White is listed as day to day with an upper body injury as the only Devil regular injured.
Very tough game against a team playing some very good hockey who just dominated Carolina in their last game and take the ice after a few days off. Gervais returns to the Isles defense but it's going to take a much better effort than we saw against Tampa, Washington and San Jose to earn two points here in terms of skating and transition.
We all know the numbers this season against the Devils which no doubt will be a big motivational factor for New Jersey. Islanders need take one look at the standings with someone out of Rangers-Buffalo gaining two points Saturday and know they need a win to keep pace as teams have games in hand as their motivation.

What to Do If You're Charged With College Plagiarism
Health, Safety, and Nutrition
Commercial Eye/Iconica/Getty Images
by Kelci Lynn Lucier
Kelci Lynn Lucier has worked in higher education for over a decade. She is the author of "College Stress Solutions" and features on many media outlets.
Plagiarism—the act of passing off someone else's work as your own, no matter where you found it—is pretty common on college campuses. If one of your professors or an administrator realizes what you've done, you may be charged with plagiarism and put through some kind of campus judicial system.
Figure out the Process
Do you have a hearing? Are you supposed to write a letter explaining your side of the story? Does your professor simply want to see you? Or could you be placed on academic probation? Figure out what you're supposed to do and by when -- and then make sure it gets done.
Make Sure You Understand the Charges
You may have received a strongly worded letter accusing you of plagiarism, and yet you're not totally clear on what exactly it is you're being accused of. Talk with whoever sent you the letter or your professor about the specifics of your case. Either way, make sure you are crystal clear on what you're being charged with and what your options are.
Understand the Consequences
In your mind, you may have been up late, writing your paper, and absentmindedly cut and pasted something from your research that you forgot to cite. In your professor's mind, however, you may have not taken the assignment very seriously, showed disrespect to him or her and your fellow classmates, and acted in a way that is unacceptable at the college level. What is not very serious to you may indeed be very serious to someone else. Make sure you understand what the consequence are, therefore, before you are unpleasantly surprised at how your sticky situation just got a lot worse.
Respect and Participate in the Process
You may not think the plagiarism charge is a big deal, so you toss the letter aside and forget about it. Unfortunately, however, plagiarism charges can be serious business. Respect and participate in the process so that you can explain your situation and reach a resolution.
Figure Out What You've Learned so It Doesn't Happen Again
Plagiarism charges in college can be dealt with lightly (essay rewrite) or severely (expulsion). Consequently, learn from your mistake so that you can prevent getting yourself into a similar situation again. Having a misunderstanding about plagiarism, after all, can only happen once. The next time you receive a letter, folks are much less likely to be understanding since you've already been through the system. Learn what you can and move forward toward your ultimate goal: your diploma (earned by you and your own work, of course!).

Global Financial Technology Provider Equisoft announces the rebranding of all its products under a unified, global architecture
Roger Federer knocked out of US Open
Dr. Mohan's Diabetes Specialties Centre opens its Kilpauk branch
Chennai : It is no secret that when it comes to diabetes, 50% of the Indian diabetes population are unaware of their condition and this negligence is high among rural population due to lack of access to quality diabetes care. Very few medical centres have exceptional state-of-the-art facilities and hospitals in their regional and rural areas. According to international statistics, India currently has the second highest number of people with diabetes in the world with 72.3 million people and will be 'Diabetes capital of the world' with 134.3 million people by the year, 2045.
India's foremost Centre of Excellence in Diabetes Care, Dr. Mohan's Diabetes Specialties Centre has taken an aggressive step to address these disturbing trends through the opening of its comprehensive clinics across the country. Dr. Mohan's has now launched its 10th comprehensive care centre for the people of Chennai that will provide complete diabetes care as well as a cadre of other diabetes treatments under one roof in the heart of the city. The Chennai centre will be open for appointments from September 4th 2019. Dr. Mohan's Diabetes Specialities centre will also be offering home care Services for diabetes to its patients at the convenience of their home.
Dr. Mohan's Diabetes Specialties Centre was started in 1991, by Padma Shri Dr. V. Mohan, as a pivotal care point to arrest the alarming rise in number of people affected by the disease. Dr. Mohan's Diabetes Specialties Centre is India's largest 'one-stop' comprehensive diabetes treatment facility offering multidisciplinary services like Diabetes Foot Care, Diabetes Eye Unit, Nutrition and Dietetics, Patient Education, and Diabetes footwear and food products under one single structure.

HNP Today Friar Speaks About Immigration on PBS Program
Friar Speaks About Immigration on PBS Program
HNP Communications September 26, 2007 Around the Province
WASHINGTON, D.C — Robert Menard, OFM, is one of many Americans who believe that some recently-proposed immigration laws are inappropriate and unfair. He was one of a half dozen people interviewed this month on PBS's weekly program "Religion and Ethics." The show focused on activities and opinions in northern Virginia where a resolution introduced in Prince William County has generated heated discussions.
The reporter, Lucky Serverson, said that "local and state governments have approved hundreds of tough new immigration resolutions since Congress failed to pass national legislation. But some religious leaders say they are deeply troubled by the done of the debate — that it goes against the precepts of all the major faiths. Father Menard is also disturbed about what is not being said."
"I think one of the great sins is the silence that is echoing around this topic," said Robert, guardian of St. Francis of Assisi Friary in Triangle, Va. The whole discussion seems to be around the question of law. No one's talking about the values to care for those who are being oppressed — to treat the alien in the land with respect and dignity."
He said that the fact that one proposed law prevents services from municipal groups such as police and fire departments from being provided to illegal immigrants is creating a culture of fear on both sides.
"People fear to go across their streets, or to knock on the door and to get to know their neighbors whether they are from one culture or another," he said. "And so the suspicion builds.
"It's important that we name the sin that is part of every community and every tradition. I'm speaking specifically of racism."
The reporter said, "Father Menard says among Christian, Jewish, and Islamic traditions ,civil law has always been subservient to values and judgment."
"If your family is struggling to survive, then to steal a piece of bread is okay. It's not only okay it's something that you're required to do by your moral responsibility to provide for your family," Robert said.
Russell Testa, the Province's director of Justice, Peace and Integrity of Creation, said "What Bob is doing is living out the best of the Franciscan tradition of courteously welcoming strangers.'" Testa will speaking about immigration at Triangle's St. Francis Parish on Oct. 24.
The complete text of the recent television program can be found on the PBS Web site.
The Province offers consulting services in midtown Manhattan at the Franciscan Immigration Center, which is open weekdays from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. For information, contact its director, Brian Jordan, OFM, at 212-736-8500 ext. 377.
