Q: CircleCI Hold step I'm trying to add a hold job into a workflow in CircleCI's config.yml file but I cannot make it work and I'm pretty sure it's a really simple error on my part (I just can't see it!).
When validating it with the CircleCI CLI locally running the following command
circleci config validate:
I get the following error
Error: Job 'hold' requires 'build-and-test-service', which is the name of 0 other jobs in workflow 'build-deploy'
This is the config.yml (note it's for a Serverless Framework application - not that that should make any difference)

          region: eu-west-2
          requires:
            - hold

It's obvious the error relates to the hold step (near the bottom of the config) not being able to find the build-and-test-service just above it but build-and-test-service does exist so am stumped at this point.

A: For anyone reading I figured out why it wasn't working.
Essentially I was using the incorrect property reference under the requires key:
workflows:
  version: 2
  build-deploy:
    jobs:
      # non-master branches deploys to stage named by the branch
      - build-and-test-service:
          name: Build and test campaign
          service_path: v2/campaign
          filters:
            branches:
              only: develop
      - hold:
          name: hold
          type: approval
          requires:
            - build-and-test-service

The correct property reference in this case should have been the name of the previous step, i.e. Build and test campaign so I just changed that name to build-and-test-service.
I found the CircleCI docs were not very clear on this but perhaps it was because their examples surrounding manual approvals stated the requires property should be pointing to the root key of the job such as build-and-test-service.
I suppose I should have been more vigilant in my error reading too, it did mention name there as well.

South Florida's weather forecast for the weekend is predicted to have scattered thunderstorms. Be prepared if you are out on the boat this weekend and plan your route wisely in case a storm decides to roll your way. The fishing pressure has been very light offshore with a very few fisherman out on the water for most of the week.
Those fishermen who did find a break in the clouds and were able to go offshore over the past week reported that the Dolphin are still spread out in deeper waters. Most of the Mahi-Mahi are swimming near patches of grass and the birds were the best sight locators. Captain Jimbo Thomas reported that there are occasional Wahoo and Black fin Tuna are spread out in 100' - 300' of water. Along the 120' ledge, there are scattered king fish and the numbers of Bonita are thinning out, which is making fishing a bit more interesting. Bottom fishing for snapper with some squid or sardines in 60'–90' of water, should make it back with you on the boat ride home.
The massive schools of mullet inshore are still firing the fish up, however, it may seem like a million of baits for the game fish to bite and the chances of picking your bait for dinner may seem impossible. To assure your finger mullet is the one they want for their next meal, try positioning your bait on the edge or bottom of the schools or even fish bait that is completely diverse around the school of finger mullet. Another helpful tip is to fish where the schools of mullet are not gathering, such as sea walls, bridges and canal entrances. These useful tips may help you land a Snook, tarpon, sea trout, lady fish, jack or even a red fish.
There have been catches of flounders being hooked under bridges too, Captain Mike Holiday reported.
The Juno Beach Pier is alive with fish right now and lots of good stuff happening!

The 20th World Cup will kick off Thursday, June 12, in Sao Paulo when host Brazil plays Croatia in a Group "A" match. The Brazilians go into the 32-nation, 64-game tournament as an 11-4 favorite to lift the World Cup trophy for a record sixth time. Oddsmakers also have established Argentina as a 4-1 pick to win it, followed by defending champ Spain and Germany, both at 6-1. The United States is a 250-1 longshot. [June 11]
Comment: Here are predictions for Brasil '14:
o Argentina will defeat Brazil in the final on July 13 at Rio de Janeiro's Maracana Stadium, site of Brazil's nightmare 2-1 loss to Uruguay in the last match of the 1950 World Cup. This time, the Argentines will win an end-to-end thriller, 3-2, to capture its third world championship and its first in 28 years. Why? Because of Lionel Messi, who four years ago in South Africa played a part in several Argentine goals but scored only one. This time, the four-time FIFA World Player of the Year runs wild. Along with Gonzalo Higuain, Sergio Aguero and Angel Di Maria, the Argentine attack builds momentum against soft Group "F" opponents Bosnia-Herzegovina, Iran and Nigeria, a momentum that only grows in the knockout rounds. In the third-place match, a banged-up Germany defeats an aging Spain … unless an outsider crashes the semifinals. Uruguay and Belgium are popular picks for that role, but Switzerland lurks.
o The U.S. will confound the experts, defy common sense, and advance out of Group "G", the so-called "Group of Death"–and it won't require a brutal tackle on Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo. Juergen Klinsmann's side has enjoyed an encouraging run-up to Brazil without suffering injury, and its considerable fitness level gives it an edge in the heat of coastal cities Natal and Recife and the Amazon jungle's Manaus. Under Klinsmann the U.S. has become the attack-minded side it was not under then-coach Bob Bradley four years ago, and he has established a culture of winning, from placing first in the CONCACAF World Cup qualifiers to taking the 2013 Gold Cup to beating Italy in Italy. More important, he has instilled in his team the belief that it's not just Germany that's capable of a late miracle comeback. The U.S. enters its seventh straight World Cup without international stars, as usual, but as goalkeeper Brad Friedel, hero of the USA's 2002 quarterfinal run, said in a recent interview, the Americans can do it as a team, if every player earns a 1-to-10 rating of 7 for every match.
o World Cup television viewership in the U.S. will dwarf the ratings numbers established at South Africa '10. No matter where a World Cup is played, a World Cup game is scheduled to kick off in what is prime time in Europe, or close to it–the rest of the world be damned. With this being the first World Cup played in the Western Hemisphere in two decades, we Americans finally get reasonable game times: noon, 3 p.m. and 6 p.m. EDT on most days. That's a far cry from Korea/Japan 2002, when some games started at 2 a.m. on the West Coast. Meanwhile, greasing the skids is the fact that, with apps and expanded streaming services, this will be the most digitally interactive World Cup ever.
o ESPN/ESPN2/ABC has once again gone all-British with its play-by-play commentators. Ian Darke rightfully gets the choice assignments, including the final, but it will only influence more in the American soccer media to go Brit. A player, wearing a "kit" and a pair of "boots" and playing not on a field but a "pitch" will score two goals, which will be referred to as a "brace." One goal will have been made possible by a teammate who, at "pace," sends him an "inch-perfect pass." That will leave the opposition "on its back foot" yet possibly inspire it into a "purple patch." Anyway, look forward to another four-year period in which an increasingly number of Americans who know better refer to any singular thing in soccer as a collective: "France are," "Uruguay are," and the "Real Salt Lake are." I are looking forward to it. Or we am looking forward to it.
o Americans who really, really don't like soccer–that is, those who feel threatened by it–will dig in their heels even further over the next four weeks. Everyone from newspaper columnists and radio sports talkers to Internet commentators will call the World Cup a dull, overblown waste of time and make xenophobic remarks about the participating nations and their fans. But with each World Cup, their footing is growing more unsteady. Those cracks about foreigners and soccer can't be so easily excused anymore, not with some of our cherished sports–like golf, basketball, hockey and tennis–now a virtual United Nations of participants. Those jokes about one-named Brazilian soccer players? See "LeBron," "Kobe." The argument that soccer in the U.S. is a game for kids? The estimated number of soccer players in this country has ballooned from 8 million in 1982 to 25 million today. Hard to believe that a few of those millions aren't adult players, particularly when what we see at the local park doesn't say otherwise. And the line about soccer and 1-0 games leaving Americans bored beyond belief? That kinda lost something with Landon Donovan's goal against Algeria four years ago. What's left is the complaint that penalty kicks are ridiculous and the charge that players feigning injury make soccer players crying, whining wimps. PKs are ridiculous, and a Nobel Prize awaits the first person who figures out a better tie-breaker. As for the macho involved in playing soccer compared to more manful, manly and masculine American sports, you could start with the hundreds of thousands of soccer players recovering from concussions caused by head-to-head contact. Or ACL tears. Or you could go straight to last Saturday, when Italy's Riccardo Montolivo and Mexico's Luis Montes sustained broken legs–in friendlies.
o Finally, this official World Cup song will be forgotten three days after the Brazil-Croatia opener: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGtWWb9emYI

Violinist.com interview with Anne-Sophie Mutter
When we last spoke with Anne-Sophie Mutter here at Violinist.com, she was championing her recording of a dark and contemporary work, but this month we find her surrounded by pink petals on the cover of a new Mendelssohn CD and ready for a birthday party.
© Anja Frers / Deutsche Grammophon
Felix Mendelssohn's birthday, that is: today marks the 200th anniversary of his birth.
What makes it a bit more interesting is the fact that the German violinist has had something of a journey with the Mendelssohn; it was one of the concerti that made her fall in love with the violin, listening to a recording of Yehudi Menuhin with Furtwangler as a child, she said. It also was the first major concerto Mutter played with orchestra at age 11, and she recorded it in 1980 with the Berliner Philharmonic under Herbert von Karajan.
Somewhere along the way she dropped the piece; she didn't play it for more than 10 years.
On Monday, from her hotel room in New York, Mutter talked with me about what made her return to the Mendelssohn and how the concerto has changed for her. This week Anne-Sophie Mutter will be performing the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto with the New York Philharmonic, with Kurt Masur conducting.
Laurie: Your performed this piece back when you were 11, made a recording of it, and then took a long hiatus from it, what was it that convinced you to go back to it?
Anne-Sophie: It started totally harmlessly, it was Kurt Masur's 80th birthday. We had been discussing Mendelssohn, the composer, for many years. It popped up in all of our conversations about music because he knew that I didn't play his concerto anymore. I did play some of the chamber music, but the Violin Concerto was kind of erased from my map. So (Masur) was talking about the great oratorios, the youth symphonies – totally passionate about it. He has been such an advocate of Mendelssohn's music all these years.
For his 80th birthday, he pretended that his only wish was that I play the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto with him. Of course, I would do anything for Kurt Masur, even re-study the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto! And what happened was just amazing: it was so fresh for me, so innocently beautiful and waiting to be re-lived. I was actually very taken by it; I just deeply love the piece. There's so much noble beauty and passion in it. Everything that Mendelssohn was as a man, as a human being, is right there.
Laurie: What are some of the things you discovered anew about it? Your perspective must have changed a great deal.
Anne-Sophie: I think that the tempo, the understanding for words like "appassionata." Also Mendelssohn's inner impatience, which he must have inherited from his father. His father was a most extraordinary person. He gave both of his children – also Felix's sister [Fanny] – such an incredibly broad and unique education. When he was 9, 10, 11 years old and composing, Felix had a [private] orchestra to attend every weekend, so every weekend he always had this try-out situation . Can you imagine what that means for a composer, what kind of development he's able to undergo?
So [the music has] this impatience, this kind of fluidity. In the second movement, it has much to do with the Gondolier songs, and [Mendelssohn's] songs altogether, the "Songs Without Words." It has to do with the whole understanding of phrasing and how to bind the musical ideas together, how to group music. This is very important for any composer. You don't play single notes, you have to group them. You have to make sense of the sentence: how you pause, and then where you put the highlights.
I think my approach when I was very young was more super-serious and broad: going for the meaning of every single note, rather than the bigger landscape. And the bigger landscape is very becoming: the fluidity and the exuberance, and let's face it, the very playful virtuosity. Mendelssohn was influenced by great virtuoso violinists like [Eduard] Rietz, for whom he wrote this devilishly difficult octet. Rietz died very early, unfortunately, so one of the reasons why Mendelssohn wrote such great violin music literally died away. Then thank God there was Ferdinand David, for whom he wrote the Violin Concerto as we know. So these virtuosic, playful, spooky last movements are ideas which come back in most of his pieces. It's important to understand the lightness of it all, the elegance. It is a different elegance than Mozart, although I would rather lean backward in the direction of Mozart than in the direction of Brahms [when playing Mendelssohn].
The revelations about the man himself just stunned me. I read more about his life than ever before in my life, and realized what a good human being he was, what a special person he was, what an incredible sense of obligation to society he had, how much he was reaching out: by founding the Leipzig Conservatory. Imagine Schumann was giving piano lessons, and Joachim came from London in order to study at this school, and Mendelssohn was teaching. All the leading positions of the Gewandhaus (Orchestra) had their teaching positions at the Conservatory.
This was not only because Mendelssohn knew that the orchestra would probably not survive if he didn't initiate a next generation of Gewandhaus musicians, but also it was for music education for everybody, including people without great means, because he understood the necessity of music in everybody's life. The whole Bach story, that he was giving benefit concerts on the organ so that the Leipzig people could afford a Bach statue in front of the St. Thomas Church – that's very moving. He was a very unique person. I have always believed, that as a musician you have an obligation not only to change notes to be higher or lower or faster or slower, but you also have to make an impact on society.
It still is true in my opinion that Mendelssohn is underestimated as a composer. Not that there aren't other composers that have been underestimated as well, but now we talk about him. It might have to do with our concept of beauty in music, that very often we are led to believe that something uplifting and inspired – something just like a sun ray – is kind of hollow. It's like in Mozart's life, where a turn around a corner into a minor chord will just break your heart: Mendelssohn's music is very deeply felt, and I don't think that Mendelssohn's life has been easy. I'm very grateful for a composer who left such pure, and highly moving and elevating music behind.
Laurie: Had you played either of the chamber works on your new CD before, the Piano Trio No. 1 in d, Op. 49, or the Violin Sonata in F major?
Anne-Sophie: Yes, I've played many of Mendelssohn's chamber works, though I've never played the Octet, which I'm going to perform with my students shortly. Andre [Previn] and I have played the D minor Trio til we dropped from our chairs; we've just always enjoyed it. Doing the recording was a special treat, at least for me, because Lynn [Harrell] is my favorite cellist around, and Andre's Mendelssohn playing, like his Mozart playing, is just out of this world.
The sonata was another great surprise for me. For a while I felt a little shy recording it, because it wasn't one of the pieces that were printed during Mendelssohn's time; he was still revising it. So it's not really revised to the last note. But as we know, many of Mendelssohn's pieces were not released during his lifetime because he was revising them. But there's nothing you could possibly do better in the F major Sonata from 1838, it's such an incredible piece. The second movement is just killing me, I particularly love the slow movement of the F Major Sonata. Of course, don't make me choose! I hope it's interesting and fun for the listener to see the many faces of Mendelssohn. He was such a great chamber music player and such a passionate chamber music player. Most of the pieces, like the Trio, he had also premiered. I found it incredibly wonderful, as a soloist, to show different roles of the violin in Mendelssohn's work: as a duo part, as a trio, and then of course the big solo piece with all the hurdles.
Laurie: On another subject, I noticed that you'll be giving "In tempus praesens" by Gubaidulina its American debut later this month with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra.
Anne-Sophie: It's such a moving experience. One week ago in Madrid I did the Spanish premiere, and two weeks ago the German premiere and now the American premiere is in just a few weeks. It's one of the great pieces in my life, that's for sure, and it's certainly the most important contemporary piece written in the last 18 years, it just is unexplicably powerful, heart-wrenching and the orchestration is all she does, so intense and unique, her sense for colors and for drama, how she paces drama, the timing of it. The balance between moments of deepest despair and beauty are just breathtaking. Every performance I'm schlepping myself up for these 40 minutes of playing up in the highest register and at the highest intensity – it's a battle, this role of Sofia against society, and especially the role of the violin against the orchestra. It's intense not only physically, but also psychologically; it's really hard to take. Very often I schlep myself off stage and I'm just – I'm done. I cannot speak.
I'm really lucky to have not only all these other tremendous contemporary pieces, but in particular "In tempus praesens." The recording, of course, can never replicate what reality does to you when you hear it in the process of really living through it, it's ..wow.
Laurie: I find it especially true with contemporary pieces, that seeing it live is a really different experience.
Anne-Sophie: Especially in this piece, because the struggle factor is such an important key to understanding what it's all about. To witness that happening live, it really adds a needed dimension. On the other hand, you hear things on the recording you will never hear live, because the orchestration is so huge. There's only so much the human ear can absorb. And so it's good to go home, and listen to "In tempus praesens," and get something else out of it that you won't get in the performance.

Incredible. I wasn't able to properly read this interview yet (and of course I will...) because I'm rushing out the door to hear ...the Mendelssohn concerto. Midori's playing it in Cremona's Ponchielli Theater in less than an hour and a half. And it's his birthday. Talk about coincidences.
PS. Mrs Mutter, I still remember your *every note* of the Beethoven Concerto you played here years back. I remember thinking, "the pianissimo that was heard around the world." Unforgettable.
From Matt Pelikan
What a wonderful, generous interview! We are all fortunate indeed to have such a detailed look into the mind of such a fine musician.
From E. Smith
Yes, this is great, thanks. I heard the very end of an interview with her and some of the new CD on NPR yesterday.
From Stephen Brivati
one of themost interesting interviews I`ve sene in a long time,
From Craig Coleman
Thanks Laurie and Anne-Sophie for sharing this heartfelt conversation with us. It opened my mind more about Mendelssohn than I knew before.

Go Laurie - another fine interview! I can't get enough of them!
From Mayra Calvani
It's a real treat to hear the words straight from Anne-Sophie. I had the pleasure of attending one of her concerts here in Brussels. She played the Mozart violin concertos (I think 3 and 5). It was a wonderful performance. Thanks for the interview, Laurie.
Thank you for the kind comments, everyone. Here's a related NYT article about ASM and Mendelssohn; it describes how Kurt Masur's piano teacher told him to close the windows when he played "Songs Without Words" because of such high anti-semitic sentiment in Germany when he was a child.
From Maurizio Cassandra
Beautiful intervieuw. I just heard a fantastic recording of Mutter's Mozart concertoes and sonatas. Everibody must listen to it. Thank you
From ev E
just saw this concert last night (tribute to mendelssohn, celebrating his 200th birthday) - the program with the ny phil was great! kurt masur, anne-sophie mutter and various soloists (don't remember their names) and the westminster choir. so much talent in one program. we were all blown away.
From John Zeweniuk
My first Ann-Sophie cd was her Bach and Gubaidulina and I love both. Is it a trend to put an earlier composer with a contemporary or 20th Century music anyways. I also have a Midori cd Bach and Bartok, which is great. They're fascinating juxtapositions...
Another great interview to read! Thanks Laurie!
From stephen kelley
Thanks Laurie for your interviews.I resonated with Hilary Hahn's support of a composer's unfettered expression. However it seems Schubert, for one, could write with a select audience of musicians and friends in mind, and available for regular feedback. In Schubert's chamber music performers and listeners are played on by the composer, so an additional level of expression is achieved.

Q: Showing static table using UI5 I want to show a table like below with fixed number or rows and columns using SAP UI5.

Is there any other way to show such? using default sap.ui.table.Table doesn't look proper.
I am new to UI5 so I have very little idea about it.
Thanks in Advance.

A: You could use the MatrixLayout if you really have a fixed layout, or for some more flexibility, the RowRepeater control.
But just out of curiosity, why would the standard sap.ui.table.Table control not suffice?

A: First make an object of which type you want to add in table.
Suppose you want an autocomplete an textField in the table so make an autocomplete and textField object as shown below
 var autocomplete1 = new sap.ui.commons.AutoComplete({
        editable : true,
        displaySecondaryValues: true,
        items    : {
            path: "/AutoComplete/AccountAssignment",
            template: new sap.ui.core.ListItem({text: "{key}", additionalText: "{desc}"})
            }
        });

var shortText = new sap.ui.commons.TextField({
        editable : true,
    });

and use it in a table as template of the column
    oTable.addColumn(new sap.ui.table.Column({
                            label: new sap.ui.commons.Label({text: "column1"}),
                            template: autocomplete1.clone(),
                            width: "30px"
                        }));

    oTable.addColumn(new sap.ui.table.Column({
        label: new sap.ui.commons.Label({text: "column2"}),
        template : shortText.clone(),
        width: "150px"
    }));

A: <Table>
    <columns>
        <Column>
            <Text text="A" />
        </Column>
        <Column>
            <Text text="B" />
        </Column>
    </columns>
    <items>
        <ColumnListItem>
            <cells>
                <Text text="A1" />
                <Text text="B1" />
            </cells>
        </ColumnListItem>
        <ColumnListItem>
            <cells>
                <Text text="A2" />
                <Text text="B2" />
            </cells>
        </ColumnListItem>
    </items>
</Table>

A: For just a few datasets you should consider to use another control like a 'Form'. A table normally is good if there are a lot of datasets and you would like to filter, group etc. If there are a lots of datasets but no columns are needed it's recommended to use a 'List'.

Around a dozen people turn out for protest at Arkansas State Capitol
Phillies host Braves in key NL East contest
Posted: Aug 30, 2020 / 08:44 AM CDT / Updated: Aug 30, 2020 / 08:44 AM CDT
The red-hot Phillies will be looking for their sixth consecutive victory when they attempt a series sweep of the Atlanta Braves on Sunday night in Philadelphia.
The Phillies won their fifth in a row, 4-1, on Saturday as Rhys Hoskins had three hits, including a three-run home run. Philadelphia has won five straight for the first time since July 31-Aug. 5, 2018.
A sixth straight win Sunday would boost the Phillies (14-14) above .500.
Right-hander Jake Arrieta is scheduled to make his sixth start. Arrieta (2-3, 4.32 earned-run average) was sharp in his last outing, throwing five innings and allowing three hits and one run. He threw only 54 pitches before a rain delay ended his night against the Washington Nationals.
Arrieta is 6-3 with a 2.93 ERA in 10 career starts against the Braves. This season, Arrieta has been inconsistent but has started to locate his pitches better, especially in his start against the Nationals on Tuesday.
"The action was late on the sinker, the cutter was moving really good," Arrieta said. "I threw some good changeups."
Arrieta, a former NL Cy Young Award winner with the Chicago Cubs, is in the final year of a three-year, $75 million deal with the Phillies.
If Arrieta can regain his former form, the Phillies have a shot of reaching the playoffs for the first time since 2011.
"I can pitch at a really high level and I know that I'm capable of doing so," Arrieta, 34, said.
Andrew McCutchen added a pair of hits in Saturday's win and the ever-improved Phillies bullpen supported Zach Eflin with two scoreless innings, one each by Hector Neris and Brandon Workman.
The Braves' lead has been reduced to two games ahead of the Phillies in the National League East. Sunday night's game is the final one scheduled between the two on the shortened 2020 schedule.
It's expected that the Braves will turn to Huascar Ynoa to start on Sunday night in what ultimately would be dubbed a bullpen game. Ynoa (0-0, 4.32 ERA) has appeared in four games this season with two starts.
Ynoa started Aug. 9 against the Phillies this season, surrendering one run in 2 1/3 innings, and holds an 0-0 mark with a 2.84 ERA in three career appearances against the team.
The Braves' bullpen has pitched quite effectively in recent games.
Closer Mark Melancon did surrender a walk-off three-run home run to Scott Kingery in Friday's 7-4 loss in 11 innings. But before that, Luke Jackson, Darren O'Day, A.J. Minter, Chris Martin, Will Smith and Shane Greene combined to toss six shutout innings on Friday.
Tyler Matzek and Grant Dayton threw 3 2/3 scoreless innings on Saturday.
"Not only do we have great arms, we have great dudes down there," Greene said. "We understand that if we want to win the whole thing, the bullpen has to be a huge strength. We now have a chip on our shoulder to make sure we get the job done. We feed off each other's energy. They say hitting is contagious. But I think pitching is just as contagious."
The Braves, who are 6-10 on the road, were 47-34 last season.
Freddie Freeman singled on Saturday to extend his hitting streak to 12. Freeman appears to be regaining his All-Star form since recovering from COVID-19 symptoms.
"I'm starting to feel better and more comfortable at the plate," Freeman said.

Rachel Shatil Installation at Galatea Gallery in Boston
Rachel Shatil
Rachel Shatil grew up on a kibbutz in Israel. Both of her parents were holocaust survivors. "Life lessons were all about staying alive–not about ambition, career, art, finding love," she said. "Love was careful, very guarded, because anyone you loved could be taken away."
Fifty percent of the the people living on the kibbutz were holocaust survivors. "They lost mothers, fathers, cousins, entire families." Most of the members of the kibbutz did not tell stories. "They did not want to poison the younger generation." But her mother did tell stories. "And the stories she told about the holocaust were huge. Enormous. A long list of deaths. Something bigger than we could possible imagine. We children were told we could not understand it. Of course, we couldn't. And still can't."
Her installation, on view at Galatea Fine Art Gallery in SOWA, "Walking the Earth," is not an exhibit about the holocaust, or about being a survivor but rather about the imprint ghosts of the past leave on the banal daily activities of the artist's life: her life. The sculptures are political, baring the artist's relationship with family, country, place, and the residual trauma of genocide.
Chairs and Breasts
She uses quotidian material– shoes, coats,brassieres, hair, masking tape, plates and builds them into structures, some larger than life, other's minimized. For example the house attached to a coat is the size of a doll house. "As a child, I never had a house." Shatil 's home was the children's house, shared with all of the other children in the kibbutz. "The only thing in the kibbutz that was mine, were my parents. My parents had lost their houses. It always felt like a home is something that can be easily lost."
As a child she was a curious, always listening, and inherited the role of storyteller. Her art is narrative. Ideas for sculptures come spontaneously and then go through a process before realization. " I define the metaphor, which is born in the world of words someplace between poetry and prose. Writing about the idea allows me to experience the metaphor that I am holding inside." Only after Shatil understands the metaphor, does she begin.
"I am completely aware of my visual philosophy," she said. I am a visual storyteller."
Shatil with her Ballet Dancer sculpture
The Ballet Dancer, in the left rear of the installation, was sculpted in response to a memory of a specific survivor. "It is an visual encounter with a very delicate person who was thrown into a brutal situation." The sculpture relies on a strong support frame. Over the support hangs a pink lace ballerina tutu. The torso of the dancer is knifed with shards of brown bark. Bark on a tree is protection, here is destruction, yet the blades do not penetrate the heart.
The dancer is both a real person, who she never met outside a story, and an aspect of herself. "Characters stick. I collect them. I transfer myself into someone else."
Shatil is a member of Atlantic Works Gallery. She showed the Ballet Dancer in 2015 New Member Show.

Boston Artist Laura Meilman with Rick Dorff, Atlantic Works Member and Fort Point Channel Artistic Director
It's not always the visual arts that take center stage at East Boston's edgy art gallery.
On December 10 and 12th, the Fort Point Theater Channel's group hauled on over Boston Harbor to perform a series of 9 short staged readings that ranged from "Alice in Wonderland" by Thomas Misuraca, "Brigham Circle" by Hortense Gerardo, and "Derailed on Butler" by Maren Lavelle. What inspired pla(T)forms playwrights and writers ? The-T stop drawings of Cambridge artist Laura Meilman. Meilman spent three years sketching scenes from each of the 121 subway and streetcar stations in Boston's MBTA system.
Haymarket T-Stop drawing (5″ x7″ ) by Laura Meilman
She wanted an art project with a goal and was already buying a monthly transit card, so she figured she'd put it to use.
The performers at the Atlantic Works Gallery event hailed from not only Boston, but also New York, Wisconsin, Los Angeles, Maine and London. Violinist Julia Alvarez accompanied several readings.

Road losses to their two chief competitors has the Chicago Blackhawks in position to begin the playoffs away from home.
It's a scenario the Los Angeles Kings are trying to avoid as well when they visit the United Center on Monday night for an important matchup between the past two Stanley Cup champions.
Chicago (41-22-6) has fallen from first place to third in the closely contested Central Division by losing five of its last eight games, the last two coming to its main rivals. After being edged 3-2 in a shootout Wednesday at St. Louis, the Blackhawks allowed the first four goals en route to Friday's 5-2 defeat to Dallas that dropped them three points behind the Stars and Blues.
Poor special teams play was the culprit in the latest loss. Chicago went 0 for 5 on the power play and surrendered two goals in six short-handed situations to extend its ongoing penalty-killing issues.
"Our special teams had probably as bad a night as you could have," coach Joel Quenneville said.
The Blackhawks were 1 for 3 on the penalty kill against St. Louis and are a league-worst 61.9 percent since Feb. 9.
"We definitely have to focus on it more. That's what it comes down to," captain Jonathan Toews said. "Obviously, heading into the last number of games and the postseason, it's going to be a huge part of our game going forward."
Chicago hopes a return to the United Center, where it's 24-8-2 this season, can yield a bounce-back. The Blackhawks play four of their next five at home, culminating with a rematch with the Stars on March 22.
Home-ice advantage should help Corey Crawford recover from a dismal showing in Dallas, where he was pulled midway through the second period after permitting four goals on 20 shots. He's 20-8-2 with a 1.74 goals-against average at United Center this season.
Los Angeles (40-22-5) is also locked in a tight race in the Pacific Division, holding a two-point advantage on Anaheim and a three-point edge on San Jose. The Kings were able to gain a little separation on the Ducks with Saturday's 2-1 overtime loss to New Jersey, managing a point despite falling behind 1:12 into the contest.
The Kings registered 23 shots - their lowest total since Dec. 17 - after scoring nine goals in winning their previous two. They did remain stingy on the defensive end, having yielded just 18 goals over a 7-2-1 stretch.
Los Angeles, losers of four of five on the road, begins a challenging back-to-back stretch that concludes Tuesday in Dallas. The Kings were dealt a fourth consecutive regular-season loss in Chicago with a 4-2 defeat on Nov. 22, in which the Blackhawks scored three unanswered third-period goals to support Crawford's 33 saves.
The Kings, 3-10-1 in their last 14 regular-season visits to Chicago, did hand the Blackhawks a 3-2 overtime defeat in Los Angeles on Nov. 28.
NHL points leader Patrick Kane has six over his past three games against Los Angeles and eight goals in his last 11 regular-season matchups.

Italian Steam merchant
Ernani under her former name Valacia. Photo courtesy of State Library of New South Wales
Name Ernani
Type: Steam merchant
Completed 1910 - Russell & Co, Port Glasgow
Owner Ditta Giovanni Gavarone fu Giovanni, Genoa
Homeport Genoa
Date of attack 29 Jun 1941 Nationality: Italian
Fate Sunk by U-103 (Viktor Schütze)
Position 27° 52'N, 26° 17'W - Grid DG 9541
Route Las Palmas, Canary Islands (25 Jun) – Bordeaux
Cargo Scrap iron
History Completed in October 1910 as British Luceric for Bank Line Ltd (Andrew Weir & Co), Glasgow. 1916 renamed Valacia for Cunard White Star Ltd, Liverpool. 1931 sold to Italy and renamed Ernani for Industrie Navali Società Anonima (INSA), Genoa. 1938 sold to Ditta Giovanni Gavarone fu Giovanni, Genoa. On 10 Jun 1940, the ship was interned at Las Palmas, Canary Islands.
At 00.51 hours on 29 June 1941, U-103 fired its last torpedo at an unescorted steamer of 6600 GRT, observed a hit in the engine room and the subsequent sinking of the ship about 450 miles west of the Canary Islands. The steamer had been spotted at 16.42 hours the day before and was missed with a stern torpedo at 23.28 hours. After the sinking, the U-boat approached the lifeboats and Schütze questioned some survivors but he did not believe them when they told him that they were from the Italian steamer Ernani en route from Las Palmas to Horta, because the course of the ship didn't correspond with the mentioned destination.
In fact, the U-boat had sunk the Italian blockade runner Ernani (Master Guglielmo Rastelli), disguised as the Dutch steam merchant Enggano. She was the ninth and last Italian merchant ship that left the Canary Islands to run the blockade in an attempt to reach a French port (only five managed to reach their destination) and planned to arrive at Bordeaux between 9 and 11 August. Her crew began to disguise the ship only after leaving Las Palmas and they built a fake crow's nest on a mast and additional bulwarks, removed the other mast and painted the hull and funnel black, but the work was not yet completed when the ship was torpedoed. The torpedo struck on the starboard side between the engine room and #4 hold and opened a large hole, causing the ship to sink by the stern within four minutes. Two crew members on watch below were killed, while the remaining crew members had barely time to abandon ship in both port lifeboats because both boats on the starboard side had been destroyed. As the Germans questioned the Italians in English, the master thought that they had been sunk by a British submarine, lied about the port of destination and asked for help. He was told that they couldn't help them in any way but promised to send a radio message after leaving the area as no distress signal had been sent. The lifeboats unsuccessfully searched the area for the two missing men until midnight and then began to row and sail towards the nearest land. On 10 July, the weather deteriorated and the boats were tossed around violently by strong wind and heavy seas. The lifeboat in charge of the first officer began leaking during the storm and had to be abandoned eventually. Its occupants were taken aboard the other lifeboat which was in charge of the master. Around noon on 12 July, the exhausted survivors made landfall near Fuencaliente Lighthouse on La Palma, Canary Islands.
The sinking of Ernani was investigated by the BdU after the Italian Navy protested, but no reason was found to blame Schütze for this mistake as he had not been informed about the presence of a friendly ship in the area and could not recognize the ship correctly as her appearance had been altered.

MANKATO, Minn. — Following a series of focus group meetings and public open houses, state and local transportation planners have developed concept layouts for the future of Hwy 22 from Mapleton to St. Peter.
The concept layouts for three segments of Hwy 22 will be unveiled at a public open house on Thursday, October 11, from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., at the Minnesota Department of Transportation Mankato headquarters, located at 2151 Bassett Drive.
Attendees will have the chance to talk with the study team from MnDOT and the Mankato/North Mankato Area Transportation Planning Organization (MAPO); review concept layouts of the roadway, intersection and previously displayed trail alternatives; and learn about next steps. The open house will be drop-in style with informational displays and no formal presentation.
Anyone who cannot attend the meeting will be able to view the materials after the open house online by visiting th22corridorstudy.com.
This is the final public outreach on the Hwy 22 Corridor Study. A round of focus groups with an open house was completed in January to gain input into issues and opportunities on the corridor, followed by a series of three public open houses to share a wide range of alternatives.
MnDOT has a pavement project planned in 2023 from Highway 83 to Blue Earth County Road 57 (Riverfront Drive) and a pavement project planned in 2024 from County Road 57 to St. Peter. MnDOT will use final recommendations from the Hwy 22 Corridor Study in the environmental analysis and preliminary design of these projects.


Q. What inspired you to be a child life specialist?
A. Growing up with a parent with a chronic illness, I became very comfortable in a medical setting. I witnessed the pain and discomfort that my mom endured and found comfort in helping her and others. I have memories of playing with medical supplies at home and using art to help process my experiences. I never worked with a child life specialist or other discipline to help me cope, but I wish I had that option. When I discovered the child life profession, everything made sense. I felt a calling to do this work and help others cope with similar life experiences.
Q. What drew you to community-based child life work?
A. Community based work grew organically for me. I became a parent and decided to stay at home with my son for the first few years. The urge to fill my child life cup was there, so I began to think outside of the box in applying my skills in a different way. I started my blog, ChildLifeMommy.com, began co-teaching a child life grad course, volunteered as a bereavement facilitator, wrote a children's book for wellness visits and then launched my practice.
Q. What is the most satisfying part of community-based child life work?
A. I am most satisfied knowing that the large gap in service is being filled with my help. I love to educate the community about the child life profession and find ways to collaborate with organizations, schools and community programs.
Q. What is the most challenging part of community-based child life work?
A. The most challenging part would be establishment in the community. It takes a lot of time and trust to be built in order for others to understand the role, appreciate the value and collaborate.
Q. What wisdom would you share with other child life professionals interested in community-based child life work?
A. To gather experience and skills working under a CCLS in a typical setting prior to jumping in community based work. Being mindful of the standards of practice that specialists hold, staying within those ethical boundaries and continuing to be involved with educational opportunities.
Q. What is your go-to method of self-care?
A. Humor, spending time with my family, yoga and high intensity workouts. Pretty much sums it up to sweat, love and giggles.
Q. What would surprise your peers to know about you?
A. That I live life to the fullest. I know how to work hard, play hard and laugh at myself. I make a ton of mistakes, reflect and grow.
A. The opportunity to become creative and build choices into an environment that can seem so limiting.
A. The endless amount of potential for the child life field to grow within non-traditional, community-based roles played a major role in my transition from the hospital setting to community-based child life work.
A. The most satisfying part of being a child life specialist doing community-based child life work is having the opportunity to introduce the field of child life to those who have never heard of the role. This can range from business men and women, to potential investors, and innovators within the healthcare field. The moment one learns about the field of child life, they are instantly interested in the positive impact chid life specialists make and follow up with the desire to make sure that child life services are well-supported to ensure that every child has access to a child life specialist.
A. The most challenging part of doing community-based child life work has been the learning curve. The transition from providing child life services at the bedside to being in an office setting and taking on a variety of tasks requires a "go-getter" and one who is willing to seek help in order to develop new skills. .
A. Establish new relationships with other child life specialists who are in the community-based world, but also stay connected to those who are hospital-based. Child life has much to offer both settings and there are lessons for every individual to learn as new developments come from those two areas.
A. Making sure that at the end of the day I take time to reflect and ask myself "Did I give it my very best?"
A. I am a 3 on the Enneagram and if you don't know about the Enneagram - you should totally check it out!!
A. I have always wanted to work with children for as long as I can remember. I originally enrolled in school to be a teacher and discovered child life. I was assigned to a local hospital for a volunteer experience and that is when I met my first child life specialist. I loved the hospital environment and impact the child life specialist had on the children and families she worked with . It perfectly fit with my love of children with my desire to help children, adolescents and families cope.
A. I had worked for over 27 years as a leader in a children's hospital. I enjoyed my role but the direction healthcare was going was not where I wanted to go. I had done many programs in the community and it had sparked my curiosity. I felt the community setting was missing the role of a child life specialist. I merged my child life and leadership skills and embarked on my new venture by opening a child life private practice in my community.
A. I think the most satisfying part of community based child life work is the comfort it brings to the children and families I meet. As one parent said , it scared her to have her child discharged with no support outside of the hospital. Her child, diagnosed with a chronic illness, was supported by child life in the hospital and wanted her to have that support for her and her family outside of the hospital walls.
A. I think the most challenging is getting the community aware of child life and how child life specialists can work with various populations such as, children of adults, siblings and adults to help them cope with fearful and anxiety provoking situations outside of the hospital walls. In addition, depending what setting in the community you work in, it effects how people get to you. In private practice it is very important to network with other individuals and professionals in the community to let them know you are there and what you are trained to do.
A. The best advice I can give is get a good solid child life foundation from paid hospital experience. I couldn't imagine doing private practice or any community work if I had not worked as a certified child life specialist in the hospital for many years. There are many more opportunities to learn and resources available in that setting. It is important to take it all in, learn and apply your skills at that level first.
A. My go to method of self care is multi faceted. I do self reflection as I feel it helps me process my day. I practice Reiki.This method helps me to ground myself. I also enjoy the beach and spend my summer weekends with my husband, daughter, son and our new puppy at the family beach house in NJ.
A. I am Reiki certified and practice it whenever I get a chance.
A. My mother was a kindergarten teacher and I knew I wanted to work with children but was interested in the medical field. When I was a sophomore in high school, my Key Club brought Christmas stockings to the local hospital and a child life specialist took us around to deliver them. She shared about the profession and I immediately knew that was the perfect fit. I shadowed her and saw the profound impact child life specialty had on the coping of kids of all ages. I went to college for Therapeutic Recreation and became dually certified and the rest is history.
A. My aunt had died peacefully in hospice while I was completing my internship during my final college semester. I saw first hand the positive impact this had on my family. Shortly after graduation, a job opening in a community-based hospice and palliative care pediatric program was posted through the Child Life Council at the time. I applied and they took a chance on a new graduate and a decade later, I am still here.
A. Almost every day is satisfying in this profession and setting. There is something special I experience from each family I visit- whether it is helping a teenager transition successfully into adult health care and college, providing classroom education for school re-entry, or bringing joy to an otherwise somber situation. I am also proud to have begun a child life program here to support children and grandchildren of adult hospice patients. It has been sacred ground to interact with families at end-of-life and to address the elephant in the room that everyone is afraid to talk about. We have been able to accomplish many bucket lists and create lasting keepsakes while encouraging the family to communicate openly with one another.
A. I never know what I am walking into when entering a home, so that keeps me on my toes but is always an adventure. Additionally, keeping my mobile Toys-R- Us clean is an ongoing battle as my SUV houses my supplies as I go from home to home. Sometimes, my interventions are at the patient's bedside, kitchen table, on the floor of a living room, or in the backyard. I do work with many of these patients for an extended period of time, so it is difficult when patients you are close to die but it is a privilege to ensure their wishes are honored and their days are lived to the fullest.
A. Try it! I love the creativity and flexibility that comes working outside of a hospital. Patients and families are so much more relaxed when they are at home. Explore partnership possibilities with local hospices, palliative care teams, funeral homes, or schools. I have had many of these institutions approach me about consulting or expanding services after they have seen the first hand impact it has on patients and families. Funding can often begin through partnerships, community donors, grants, or fee for service.
A. Traveling! Boundaries and self-care are especially important in this line of work, and vacations force me to disconnect and slow down. I also have a monthly dinner with my two fellow child life specialists and our music therapist. This is an awesome outlet with other professionals and friends who understand the joys and challenges that come with the job.
A. I started in hospice as a brand new graduate. I was blessed to have an intense and robust internship, but had limited experience with end-of-life. I often hear people be weary about transferring to this field but each team member, patient and family taught me something. It was baptism under fire regarding end-of-life and working in the home setting, but the child life skills and theories remain the same as you learn in school, over the internship and in the hospital. It is important to recognize your own death awareness, limitations and comfort level, but the child life foundation is universal. This field is not depressing, but rather quite inspirational and the impact of child life is for life! My mission is to spread awareness in our profession about the value of child life in a community based setting and on the flip side, advocating for child life specialists to be standard professionals of the hospice interdisciplinary team in pediatrics and adult health care. Happy Child Life Month!


Bio Hi, I'm NSK, the NoSkinnedKoopa. I love video games, sports, and hanging out with friends. I am like if you were to mix: Nerd, Athlete, and Social party dude.

That's right, you can preheat your oven and add time to your dryer cycle—from your phone.
You can get the entire set of appliances, or purchase individually based on your needs—all with cool, unique, "smart home" features. Preheat your wall oven from the app, then check the status of your meal and receive notifications on when it's done no matter where you are in your house.
There's a fridge that will tell you if your ice bin is full or whether you need to change the water filter. There's even a dishwasher that will tell you whether your dishes are getting the best possible clean. Ever go on a long vacay and blank on turning off the water heater? Easy peasy, thanks to your phone. As for those piles of laundry taking over our homes: they'll be sooo much easier to knock out now that we can remotely add time to the cycles and receive reminders when cycles are done.
Guys, I want one (or, you know, all of 'em). If you do, too, each appliance will be dropping at a specific time during 2015. Ovens are available now, followed by the water heater in February, the refrigerator/freezer in April, the laundry pair in May and the dishwasher late this year.
I'm all over this type of fingertip household technology. It's good to live in 2015, isn't it?
Can You Replace Your Dermatologist With a Smartphone?


If you enjoyed watching Pitch Perfect (1,2 and 3), you'd recognize the name Anna Kendrick – the musically gifted star of these movies.
Recently, Anna experienced several extremely painful episodes, it turns out, from kidney stones. She admitted to trying to work through the pain, hoping everything would subside and she wouldn't have to miss time from her busy schedule!
Does this sound familiar, especially to the women who are reading this?
A recent study from Yale University found that men are more likely to complain of symptoms caused by illness or injury, while women often downplay pain out of fear of neglecting their daily tasks. However, this neglect can cause serious consequences if symptoms are ignored for too long.
What did Anna learn from this that she wants to pass on (excuse the pun!) to all women?
After expressing her thanks to the nurses who treated her, the actress pleaded with women to put their health first and seek medical help rather than trying to push through their illness.
"I was worried that my pain would turn out to be "nothing serious" or something that I should have been able to fight through. I'm so grateful to these women (who treated her)….." she said.
Want to find out how you can protect your health and get the care you need? Contact me to schedule a complimentary 30-minute consultation.

Throughout this series of posts, I've emphasized the importance of IT and overall information architecture in the journey to cloud. But as organizations become all-cloud—or more likely, a hybrid mix of cloud and on premises infrastructure—there's another key stakeholder: the chief data officer.
CDO is a relatively new role, and it's still being distinguished from, and learning to partner with, the CIO. One distinction: Among other things, the chief information officer always owns the infrastructure, and continues to do so as the CDO focuses on understanding the most valuable ways the business can leverage the information it possesses. So, what are the CDO's concerns as the enterprise moves into the cloud?
Meet the CDO
CDOs emerge more often from a business background than IT, and that trend may continue, since the role demands a strong business sense for extracting value from information. That's not to say that IT can't step into that role. The best-known, most successful CIOs have made a career-defining specialty of really understanding their business.
Today's IT professionals seem to understand this, and have their eyes on that evolution. At an Informatica World session last May where I discussed the role of the CDO, I asked how many people in our IT-heavy audience of about 100 people were in fact Chief Data Officers, to which only 2 hands raised. But when I turned the question around a bit and asked how many in the audience were aspiring CDOs, 75 percent of hands went up. So more of tomorrow's strategic CDOs may in fact come from IT, but it'll be because they've proven they have the business chops.
And cloud transformation is a key place where that business acumen touches infrastructure discussions.
Where the CDO meets IT and the cloud
The CDO needs to understand the architectural goals of the IT org. Not necessarily the nitty-gritty of the systems and infrastructure, but rather, two high-level issues:
The desired end state toward which IT is working, and
The business advantages of that architecture (including the costs of sacrificing it to short-term expediency)
So the first question a CDO asks a CIO might be, "What does your capability roadmap look like, and why?" On the flip side, the CIO's first question should be one the CDO (hopefully) has already asked of the business: "What's the most profitable question you'd like to answer?" Dig into it. Why can't we answer that question already? Is the technology cost-prohibitive? Do we lack the internal talent, perhaps in terms of analysts or data scientists? Is the data that would define an answer to the question inconsistent or siloed? Quite often, an underlying system or systematic issue is at the root of problem.
From there: If it's our mission to move to the cloud, can we do things to make headway on that data need? Can a CDO's data roadmap and the CIO's IT roadmap be aligned to accelerate the success of both? Understanding those two visions is really powerful, particularly because it drives IT to look for new answers, rather than setting up the same old systems, whether on premises or translated to the cloud.
Transformation looks different
The advent of the CDO is a great way to energize IT transformation—real transformation that changes whole business models rather than merely implementing this or that new system or functionality. Working with IT leaders, they can couple the business view of the most valuable data and analytics with the best technological thinking about how to actually get to those insights.
The idea of data as a business asset, much less the role of CDO, is so new that we haven't seen a lot of these collaborations in fullest flower yet. But I'm convinced—and Informatica CIO Graeme Thompson assures me—that this is indisputably the next evolution of business and IT excellence.
Up next: That idea of not replicating your legacy headaches with new cloud technologies? It's harder than you think — but we'll talk it through.

In our current year today where BandarQ becoming more and more popular to different people around the globe, the gadgets that we use to play the game becoming more and more advanced and are quite expensive.
Games in the past doesn't require bigger memories, better motherboards, Random Access Memory (RAM), video card, software supports, and even good monitor in order to support the games that you want to play.
As what most people would say that change is inevitable, so it is expected for the games to develop as the developers becoming more and more adept and artful on their games. Thus, creating intricate and sophisticated games will of course require a computer or a laptop that is of higher specs.
If you are not a gamer, you might ask yourself why you need to upgrade your unit or buy a new one for a game. But, if a gamer's heart and blood flows within you, you knew the reasons why we should upgrade our units.
Of course it is still a game, but a game is not only a game for a true gamer. We cannot appreciate the game with a lousy and old running laptop that requires higher specs. A game is an extension of your world or could be a gamer's world. For that, having a slow performing laptop will not let you experience and appreciate the game if your laptop's specs are lower than the required specs for the game.
As of now, we have listed down 6 best gaming laptop deals for every budget right now. Why don't you check out the deals and you might be able to find a unit that can be used for your game. But, unlike any other laptops and deals, the deals we had for you are affordable and budget friendly.
Do not let that gamer's blood on you dry out. Buy a new budget friendly laptop and play the game that you like. Then let yourself experience the real world of online gaming with your new budget friendly laptop.


Just got back from Malaysia yesterday via Airphilexpress and I was surprised to find out that the cast of Drum Tao (the famous Japanese drum performance group from Japan) were on the same flight with us.They recently concluded their shows in Kuala Lumpur and were headed to Cebu for the final leg of the tour.
I immediately noticed them as soon as got seated and I was surprised at myself when I shouted "Drum Tao!" To one of the members and he said "yes!".I watched their performance in Resorts World Manila's Newport Performing Theater last month so I easily recognised them.They were seated just a few seats behind us so I immediately took my camera and asked one of them if it's possible to snap a shot when everybody's already settled.It was a midnight flight so everybody must be tired but one of them was very friendly.Proof of that is the Big smile.
And oh,their official residence in Cebu will be Crimson Mactan Resort,one of my personal favorites.KL + Drum Tao +Airphilexpress + Crimson Mactan Resort,love love love!
nice...did you get old-school autographs? LOL!


Do you approve of the Astros' decision to trade Jordan Lyles and Brandon Barnes?
As wild as Tuesday was across baseball, Astros general manager Jeff Luhnow wasn't sitting at his desk with an unsettled feeling that he had to keep pace.
When he sat down for Thanksgiving dinner last week, Luhnow already knew he was close to a trade that would bring Colorado Rockies center fielder Dexter Fowler to Houston.
The Astros finished it off Tuesday in their first significant move of the winter, trading righthanded pitcher Jordan Lyles and outfielder Brandon Barnes to the Rockies for Fowler and a player to be named.
Add in the two trades the Oakland Athletics made and the Yankees' reported agreement with Jacoby Ellsbury, and Tuesday was hot-stove gold.
Fowler, a switch-hitter who turns 28 in March, will remain in center field and may well bat leadoff on opening day. Left knee and right wrist injuries held Fowler to 119 games last season, but he's a career .270 hitter with a .365 on-base percentage, plus enough speed and pop to steal 20 bases and hit 10 home runs.
Fowler was aware he could be on the move, departing from the franchise that drafted him in the 14th round in 2004.
Now the 6-4 Fowler will have to adjust to life away from Coors Field, Colorado's hitter-friendly ballpark where his lifetime batting average is .298. That's 57 points higher than his career average on the road, but not a matter that has the Astros anything but excited for their first big acquisition of the offseason.
This didn't appear out of the blue or at breakneck speed.
As the season was winding down, the Astros identified potential trade targets on every team. They knew heading into the playoffs that Fowler was someone they'd like to bring in, and the overtures started about two months ago.
Luhnow met with the Rockies at the GM meetings in Orlando at the start of November. Emails and text messages picked up once those meetings ended, and on the day before Thanksgiving, Luhnow was able to put down work knowing he was close to a significant move.
There was considerable back-and-forth on the names involved in the deal, and the last hurdle once it became known Lyles and Barnes would head to Colorado was working out the parameters of the player to be named coming back to Houston.
The Astros set out this offseason to acquire an outfielder, but they didn't narrow their criteria to right, left or center.
George Springer, one of the Astros' top prospects, was thought to be a candidate to win the center-field job in spring training. But Springer can play all three outfield positions and will still have a chance at a corner job.
A native of Atlanta who is expecting his first child in January, Fowler will spend the rest of the offseason with his wife in Salt Lake City. He said he's healthy now — "awesome," to be exact — and Luhnow said the Astros' medical staff did its due diligence.
Tal's Hill at Minute Maid Park might be a new challenge for Fowler in center, but he pointed out that Coors Field is certainly spacious as well.
Fowler didn't make his debut until 2008, the year after the Rockies went to the World Series, and he's been through losing seasons the last three years.
Barnes, who turns 28 in May, played 179 games with the Astros the last two seasons, almost all of them in center field. He's a lifetime .233 hitter and was the Astros' sixth-round draft pick in 2005.
Lyles was an Astros first-round draft pick in 2008 as a high schooler and made it to the majors quickly at age 20. He went through growing pains and leaves with a lifetime 5.35 ERA. But he's only 23.
