BOARD NEWS: CVHEC Board Reviews AB928, Eyes Retreat In 2023 and Bids Farewell to One of Its Own (Photo Gallery)
Outgoing Community College President Lori Bennett sat in on her final CVHEC Board meeting Dec. 8 and was honored by her colleagues including CVHEC regional coordinator John Spevak, who worked with her on special projects at CCC, and Executive Director Benjamin Duran. Jessie Ryan of the Campaign for College Opportunity presented on AB928 (Berman) and transfer reform.

The Central Valley Higher Education Consortium Board of Directors held its final quarterly meeting of the year Dec. 8 highlighted by a discussion of Assembly Bill 928 regarding transfer reform and a farewell to a beloved colleague.
Dr. Lori Bennett, outgoing president of Clovis Community College, was presented a retirement gift during her final meeting sitting on the CVHEC board and representing her institution of higher education.
After a presentation by two dear friends and colleagues — Dr. Kristen Clark, CVHEC board chairperson and chancellor of the West Hills Community College District; and Dr. Claudia Lourido-Habib, president of Porterville College — President Bennett expressed her appreciation for her CVHEC colleagues.
"There is nothing that I've done in my whole career that has been better than being president at Clovis Community College and part of that is being part of CVHEC," said President Bennett whose retirement is effective Jan. 3.
"It's amazing what we have here in this valley, all of you in this room, all of us getting to know each other and meeting up and talking and including all the different colleges," she told the board. "It is beyond my wildest dreams that I could have been part of something like this. I want to thank all of you for the friendship and the work that we've done together over the last several years."
The hybrid board meeting, only the second in-person session since the pandemic for the presidents and chancellors of CVHEC's 30 member institutions in the nine-county Central Valley region, was hosted by the California Health Sciences University and board member Florence T. Dunn, CHSU president. Dr. John Graneto, CHSU dean pf the university's College of Osteopathy Medicine, welcomed the academic CEOs with a presentation about the medical school.
Also presenting at the board meeting was Jessie Ryan, executive vice president of the Campaign for College Opportunity, who joined the meeting via Zoom. Discussing AB928 (Berman), Ryan acknowledged the role CVHEC has played in the transfer reform movement over the years, noting that the Central Valley is ahead of many in the state.
Ryan said the bill sought three things: to create an intersegmental transfer task force to talk about critical issues related to the production of the Associate Degree Transfer and improving the transfer process for students across the state; to create a common lower division general education pathway into the CSU and UC; and to more strategically ensure that the ADT became the preferred pathway for students where an ADT pathway for transfer existed
The board also heard CVHEC Executive Director Benjamín Durán report that the Consortium will be undertaking strategic planning measures in 2023 that include a program evaluation and a CVHEC Board Strategic Retreat next summer.
Several other CVHEC Projects were discussed; including a progress report on the CVHEC Transfer Project/Program Mapper, updates on the four CERF regions K-16 Collaboratives, and a discussion about the Online Educational Resources/Zero Textbook Costs (OER/ZTC). (See full agenda here – view details).
The CVHEC Board of Directors will meet again in spring 2023.

Mini-Grant Success Story: CHSU Pre-Med Pathway Bootcamp
Pre-Med Bootcamp Helps Local Students
with CHSU-COM Med School Applications
NOTE: For the past three years, CVHEC Mini-Grants have been awarded to member institutions in support of CVHEC's mission to increase degree attainment rates. We are highlighting how our member institutions' innovative uses for the grants are positively impacting students.
A Pre-Med Pathway Bootcamp helped 25 local students prepare to apply to California Health Sciences University College of Osteopathic Medicine (CHSU-COM) thanks to funding from Central Valley Higher Education Consortium's Mini-Grant project.
CVHEC's $6,000 mini-grant offset course fees for students so they only had to pay $25 to reserve their seats. The grant also provided all MCAT prep supplies and instruction, T-shirts, certificates of completion and a catered lunch for the attendees.
"Our local pre-med students greatly benefited from only having to pay $25 for this in-depth Pre-Med Pathway Bootcamp," said Dr. Kevin Steed, assistant professor of Biomedical Education who served as program director with Samuel Kadavakollu, PhD, chair of the Biomedical Education Department and associate professor at CHSU-COM.
"We appreciate CHSU's and CVHEC's commitment to keeping this program affordable for local students, many of whom would not have been able to participate if they had to pay thousands for a program of this caliber," Dr. Steed said.
CHSU's four-weekend bootcamp held in October was divided into three main categories with sessions that provided the aspiring pre-medical students an opportunity to prepare for the Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT), learn about the medical school application process and experience the medical school environment.
In addition to classroom learning, pre-med students experienced HoloAnatomy using the Microsoft HoloLens; participated in a culinary workshop in the CHSU-COM Teaching Kitchen where they practiced cooking healthy recipes; and stepped into the shoes of a current medical student by participating in medical simulation scenarios in the CHSU Simulation Center with manikins and real Standardized Patients.
Graduates of the bootcamp were presented with certificates by John Graneto, DO, dean of the College of Osteopathic Medicine and Lisa Chun, DO, associate dean of Osteopathic Clinical Education and Simulation.
CHSU is now planning for its next Pre-Med Pathway Bootcamp in spring 2022.
The CVHEC Mini-Grants project, currently funded by the College Futures Foundation, provides awards up to $10,000 each which faculty from consortium member institutions have creatively used for individual projects that help achieve CVHEC's strategy of increasing degree attainment rates.
Previous mini-grants have supported assistance and professional learning associated with Guided Pathways, Math Pathways, implementation of Corequisite English and math, course development and advancement of Pathways for Associate Degrees for Transfer.
The 2021 funding cycle also sought to additionally incentivize basic needs and equity, race and social justice work. Details about applications for the 2022 funding cycle will be announced in January.

I love fireworks! Any time of the year, Fourth of July, Labor Day, New Year's Eve and if lucky enough, Memorial Day. My most favorite experience occurred on the beach in New Jersey decades ago. Standing in the sand close to the pier, the fireworks were exploding directly above me. Feeling the remnants of burnt ashes gently falling upon me in the breeze, I stood mesmerized with my neck extended as far back as possible staring, as showers of sparkling colors erupted over head. I had never been as close to a fireworks staging area as I was that evening standing beside the Atlantic Ocean. Standing directly underneath the fireworks display left a lasting impression. As I watched, I could see the trails of the explosive particles floating down. As I began to paint this painting, thoughts of the recently passed Fourth of July arose. And, I longingly went back to that shore in Jersey decades ago. Those explosions of color and the extending trails of particles that left such a lasting impression upon me are depicted in my palette knife marks.

Q: how to identify css selector ::before in selenium is not working I am trying to use Selenium to get all element in the list  ::before pseudo-element. I can't save data into the list.
Scenario: I want to all data into the list where data in li and a tag
Here is what the DOM looks like:

I am using selenium + python
This code is hovering to main category nav 'Women':
element_to_select = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//*[@id='nico-main-header']/nav/ul/li[1]")
hover = ActionChains(driver).move_to_element(element_to_select)
hover.perform()
driver.implicitly_wait(15)

Print all li achor tag :
ele = driver.find_element_by_css_selector("ul .row .col-md-3:first-child ul li")

print(ele)

** but li anchor tag is not coming while printing the ele.

A: You can use this code:
For a tag
my_a_tag_datas = []      //empty list
a_data = driver.find_elements_by_tag_name("a")   //a tag from web driver
for a_tag_data in a_data:
    a_tag_data_taxt = a_tag_data.text    // a tag element data convert to text
    my_a_tag_datas.append(a_tag_data_taxt)   //  a tag whole data save in list
print(my_a_tag_datas)    // print list data

For li tag: same code just please replace "a" to "li"
Note: If you save all element rather then text then please append a_tag_data where i append  a_tag_data_taxt

A: Disclaimer: This is not an optimal solution.I am using python for the first time and not have much hands on with selenium.
elem = driver.find_element_by_css_selector('.col-md-3').find_elements_by_tag_name('a')

  for a_tag_data in elem:
    a_tag_data_text = a_tag_data.text
    my_a_tag_datas = my_a_tag_datas + a_tag_data_text

print(my_a_tag_datas)

A: Pseudo Elements
A CSS pseudo-element is used to style specified parts of an element. It can be used to:

*

*Style the first letter, or line, of an element

*Insert content before, or after, the content of an element

::before
::before inserts the content before any other content in the HTML instead of after. The only reasons to use one over the other are:

*

*You want the generated content to come before the element content, positionally.

*The ::after content is also "after" in source-order, so it will position on top of ::before if stacked on top of each other naturally.

This usecase
To extract all the texts within <a> tag using Selenium  and Python you have to induce WebDriverWait for the visibility_of_all_elements_located() and you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

*

*Using CSS_SELECTOR:
driver.get("https://nthqibord.com/2019/08/15/pemimpin-pkr-pertahan-tun-mahathir/")
print([my_elem.text for my_elem in WebDriverWait(driver, 5).until(EC.visibility_of_all_elements_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "a#main-category-menu[href='/shop/women/'] + ul.top-nav-border ul li>a")))])

*Using XPATH:
driver.get("https://nthqibord.com/2019/08/15/pemimpin-pkr-pertahan-tun-mahathir/")
print([my_elem.text for my_elem in WebDriverWait(driver, 5).until(EC.visibility_of_all_elements_located((By.XPATH, "//a[@id='main-category-menu' and @href='/shop/women/']//following::ul[@class='top-nav-border']//ul//li/a")))])

*Note : You have to add the following imports :
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

Aha! I loved playing this game. It's totally worth it. Though, the recent DLC isn't the RPG based DLC. So keep that in mind. Rather than buy the Standard Edition for now in the upcoming Steam Sales and buy Season Pass next year.
The total content of the base game (which doesn't include DLC) is around 100 Hours of Playtime.


A lot of people often ask "Why have you got a picture of a big blue horse behind the bar?" The answer to that question is twofold and actually goes some way towards answering another popular question we regularly field – Why is The Lexington called The Lexington?
As is often the case with a good story the best place to start is, well, the start. For those of you lucky enough to be invited, back in January this year the Lexington celebrated its 5th birthday in an absolute riot of debauchery that left many a sore head across the capital come dawn.
Travel back to 2008 when we first took the keys to 96-98 Pentonville Road, however, whilst a distinct idea of what we wanted to achieve here was clearly in place (to make an incredible and accessible live music experience alongside a comfortable lounge style bar) what to call this place was a lot less clear. Due to a deeply entrenched love of Bourbon and good American style bars it was obvious we wanted to impart a slice of Americana into our name whilst also creating a simple iconic name. So where did we turn for inspiration? Why the Velvet Underground of course.
A combination of the word, the lyrics and the general tone of the song just stuck and the Lexington was born. Yes you got that right – we named our bar after where Lou Reed went to pick his drugs up from – don't pretend you ever thought we were classy!
That picture right there on our back bar was delivered to us, by hand, by the Lexington tourist board as a recognition of our name and commitment to bourbon in London and was a real testament to our rapidly growing trans-Atlantic burgeoning reputation.
And so it still sits today a picture of Lexington, from Lexington, in the Lexington.
And that is why there is a picture of a big blue horse in our bar.

Q: user Profile meta value as custom field I would like to add custom fields automatically to all my custom post types weblogs based on data from the author profile field.
My code:
function add_custom_field_automatically($post_ID) {
    global $wpdb;
    $curauth = get_userdata($author->ID);
    if(!wp_is_post_revision($post_ID)) {
        $themevalue = get_the_author_meta('themeperauthor', $author->ID);
        $themename = 'themeperauthor';
        add_post_meta($post_ID, $themename, $themevalue);
    }
}

Please help.

A: create a simple query and loop over all posts with your function:
//get all your post of that type
my_query = new WP_Query();
my_query->query(array('post_type' => '','posts_per_page' => -1));
if (my_query->have_posts()){
//loop over all post and update meta field with your function
    while (my_query->have_posts()){
        my_query->the_post();
        add_custom_field_automatically_new($post->ID,$post->post_author);
    }
}

//save as your function but with bit of tweaking

function add_custom_field_automatically_new($post_ID,$post_a) {
    if(!wp_is_post_revision($post_ID)) {
        $themevalue = get_the_author_meta('themeperauthor', $post_a);
        $themename = 'themeperauthor';
        add_post_meta($post_ID, $themename, $themevalue);
    }
}

after you save this remove it (it only needs to run once).
the use your old function from above and hook it to save_post hook so every time a post is saved it will run
add_action('save_post','add_custom_field_automatically');


Athletic Revolution announces today the signing of its first Iowa franchisee, Cindy Johnson, out of Indianola. The youth fitness franchise continues to expand to new regions.
Athletic Revolution is a training system that is based on developmental principles set forth by the International Youth Conditioning Association. A great focus on keeping young athletes safe and injury free is of utmost importance in the AR system.
"As far as I'm concerned, Athletic Revolution has no equal when it comes to fitness and sports training for kids aged 6-18", said Johnson, owner of the new Indianola location.
The training system has been developed by some of the most well-known and successful Coaches in the world and has been field tested on over 15,000 young athletes around the world.
The American Obesity Association has recently reported that over 30% of U.S.-based children and teens are currently considered either overweight or obese.

What I Wish I Knew Before I Had Top Surgeryhttps://www.huffpost.com/entry/wish-i-knew-top-surgery_n_5d389f2de4b0419fd3371733?fbclid=IwAR0-d2lBLQrchGM1mGLA2enPrc6E--SZ5eujgjovI3SJM2aUaK_jc9uJ07w
My one piece of advice? Sometimes pictures of surgeries can be a good thing. You can look back and see how far you've come. Keep a 'private' photo journal. Start taking a picture a day, then once a week, then every few weeks, then once a month. You will be amazed by your changes.
"Luckily, time has a tendency to heal physical wounds. As I healed, it became increasingly clear that my body didn't feel wrong because I had made the wrong choice or had been wrong about my gender dysphoria — it felt wrong because I was recovering from major surgery, obviously. About halfway into my six-week recovery period, I started to be able to get out and about again, although more carefully than normal."

My privacy matters more to me than being seen "correctly" in a space inhospitable to empathy, where nonbinary people are already subject to abuse and violence on a daily basis.
I have so many questions about myself and I cherish that. I don't want to answer anyone else's and I don't need anyone to answer them for me either. It's my journey."

My therapist asked me to think about, or even write about, the nature of uncertainty itself. And, he said, really pay attention to what it's like to live in your body, right now. This was an instruction I loathed on a gut level, because a big part of being somebody like me is that all the time you pretend that this body isn't where you're stuck.
I already knew what it's like to live in my body right now, but I nonetheless listened to his instruction.

Let's Talk About Nonbinary
How are you affirming nonbinary students in your classroom?
https://www.tolerance.org/magazine/lets-talk-about-nonbinary
To better understand nonbinary identity, think of a favorite image. Now consider the difference between how it would look as a silhouette, a black and white photograph and an oil painting.
Just as a gender binary divides people into male and female, a silhouette divides an image into two colors. Every part of the image is either black or white; there is no in between, and the boundaries between the two colors are crisp and clearly defined.
The gender spectrum is more like the photograph. Parts of the image may be black or white, but there are also splashes of light, deep shadows and an incredible range of shades between the two. It's difficult to say where one ends and another begins. Those who see gender as a spectrum see a range of possible gender identities between male and female. Phrases like "masculine of center" and "feminine of center" explain where different identities fall on the spectrum.
Here's where it gets interesting: Nonbinary gender forsakes both the binary and the spectrum. In the analogy, it is more like the painting. Black and white may be present, but they are two colors out of many. And like an oil painting, nonbinary gender is experienced in an endless variety of textures, colors and shapes. It is vivid, three-dimensional and boundless.
How Do I Talk About Periods with My Non-Binary Kid?https://www.mykidisgay.com/blog/how-do-i-talk-about-periods-with-my-non-binary-kid?fbclid=IwAR1Vrx6w64KFPX_VLzgqnOsQxcSEsHFQ4IxV8OngzW4mMPjGdZy7CFgGRBI
Medical intervention to stop periods is totally fine and normal, and there are lots of reasons people don't want to have them, including gender dysphoria! Talk about how birth control or another option like it is an option for your child. Let them know that if they don't want to have a period, they don't have to, but that you want to do it safely and in conjunction with a doctor.

Trans kids exist. They need support. Doing nothing causes major harm. Doing nothing is not a neutral option.
You Don't Always Transition Once
https://www.autostraddle.com/you-dont-always-transition-once-446659/
Timelines are magic; they evoke the wonder of metamorphosis. A boy is put in a hat. The wand of estrogen is waved (this is not optional). A girl hops out, smiling, bright and beautiful. The audience claps, and the applause is fueled at least as much by longing as it is by admiration. We want to find ourselves in that hat. We want to have the wand waved so we can pop out, perfect. The way we were supposed to be.
But like any magic, the hat obscures; the metamorphosis is an illusion. We salivate over the transformation in the instant it takes us to glance from one photo to the next. To us, on the other side of the veil, it's gratifyingly quick. We don't see what happens in the hat. If we did, it wouldn't be a timeline. It would be life.
The true metamorphosis is cramped, sweaty, uncomfortably stuck in a cocoon to gestate for who knows how long. Each tear shed is a drop in the bucket for the alchemy it takes to complete the trick. Each frustrated grunt punctuates the time that passes, not in those magical befores and afters, but in the concrete incubation period between now and later. So, so, so very much later.

It's OK to Use "they" To Describe One Person: Here's Why
https://www.dictionary.com/e/they-is-a-singular-pronoun/
They is not only a plural pronoun.This chameleon word is also a singular pronoun, and it has been for centuries. Etymologists estimate that as far back as the 1300s, they has been used as a gender neutral pronoun, a word that was substituted in place of either he (a masculine singular pronoun) or she (a feminine singular pronoun).
My First Pap Smear as an Openly Nonbinary Person Was Wildly Disorienting

Here's how medical professionals can do better. I avoided seeking preventive care because I didn't want to have to go through the process of explaining who I was to someone who might be hostile, or might ask questions I couldn't answer. (I'm not an expert on being nonbinary. I just am nonbinary.) Even worse, I worried I might be refused treatment due to religious or moral beliefs, something the Trump administration recently made even easier for health professionals. Nonbinary people experience a variety of discrimination in health settings—including being expected to educate the person with several degrees sitting across from them in a suit and a lab coat while they sit on an exam table, derrière hanging out the back of their medical gown.

Trans Kids Massively Benefit From Being Allowed To Socially Transition
https://thinkprogress.org/trans-kids-socially-transition-study-529f34c1bb3b/
When kids are allowed to transition, including the use of puberty blockers, it improves their mental health.
When parents affirm their kids' gender identities, they have normative rates of depression and anxiety.
When families reject their kids' gender identities, it increases the likelihood of their suicidality and substance abuse.
Transgender kids identify as completely with their gender identity as their cisgender peers.

Non-Binary Folks Share Advice for Coming Out as Gender Non-Conforming and
Accepting Yourself
https://www.themarysue.com/gender-non-conforming-coming-out/
Simply put, gender non-forming is "a term used to describe some people whose gender expression is different from conventional expectations of masculinity and femininity." Similar terms like genderqueer, gender fluid, non-binary, and gender variant express the recognition of a gender spectrum that exists beyond the male/female binary.
Another important distinction is the difference between sex and gender, two concepts often used interchangeably with each other. Sex is simply the medical assignment made at birth based on a baby's external anatomy. Gender however, is how you feel inside, your sense of self. Sex and gender are entirely separate from sexuality/orientation, which is about who you are (or aren't) sexually or romantically attracted to.

Women Are Not the Only Ones Who Get Abortions

People across the gender spectrum receive abortion care. While their numbers are relatively small—so small that it is difficult to get statistics, for example, on how many men receive abortions each year—they are not insignificant. That they are unintended victims of the war on women does not negate the fact that they, too, are fighting for their lives and autonomy.
Equity, Period.
https://www.tolerance.org/magazine/spring-2019/equity-period
Join the movement to destigmatize menstruation and make schools more accommodating for all students who experience it.
To ensure the inclusion of transgender students—who may or may not be out—it's important that teachers are thoughtful when speaking about menstruating bodies. Not all women menstruate, and not only women menstruate. Teachers must acknowledge that transgender students may have a hard time managing menstruation while escaping negative attention that could put them at risk of harm.

"There are numerous things to be discovered by finding out someone's pronoun. At its most utilitarian, it is a literal question: tell me what pronoun to call you when I speak of you in the third person. Two intertwined forces inspire this question. Viewed pessimistically, the question seems to ask, how do I not offend you? Viewed optimistically, it asks instead, how do I refer to you respectfully? This question is deceptively simple, the possible answers vary ever so slightly..."

The national conversation about trans identity and community tends to focus on the newest crop of trans youth. But why don't we hear about older trans and gender-nonconforming individuals who manage to overcome the at times seemingly impossible odds and survive — and thrive — in America?
"Prior to starting this project, I heard from several younger trans people that they had never seen images of older transgender people and that they had no roadmap for what their life might look like going forward," she said. "I wanted to create this project for them, as well as to record and validate the experiences of older transgender people, many of whom are directly responsible for the world we live in today."
A Guide to Coming Out as Trans

"For me, no matter what I physically look like, someone using my correct pronouns makes a big difference. Pronouns you've probably heard before are 'he', 'she', 'they'. Personally, I feel most happy and comfortable using they/them pronouns, but I'm also okay with he/him. There are a stack of different types of pronouns that people use, and the most important thing is that you voice and use the ones that you feel are the best fit. Testing out different pronouns and seeing what makes you feel most at home is a great way to start."

Many trans people face a grim decision regarding visibility in an era where modest gains for trans rights coexist with rising far-right reactionary backlash. This can be particularly difficult for newly-out trans people or those just beginning to fully embrace the complexity of their identities, as they attempt to navigate the murky, uncertain waters of being visibly trans. If you're approaching TDoV this year with trepidation or uncertainty, here are a few pieces of advice that I hope can bring clarity.

BMI Live is designed to encourage young artists and performers to devise original literature shows and generate new responses to The Birmingham and Midland Institute.
This is an artist-led project, an opportunity to create more performances and platforms in Birmingham - a youth-led, innovative showcase which will eventually take its place among the strongest cultural offerings in the city.
We are open to various forms of work including short stories, poetry, spoken word, and drama.
We are looking for artists and performers in need of a new audience and/or space, and we are happy to support you as you prepare for the shows.
The selected performers will work alongside our Creative Director Roy McFarlane, Project Leaders Amerah Saleh and Jo Delyse Packwood, and mentor Rick Sanders to decide on a format, space, timings and design for the shows.
We will give space for free to the Creators Group when they need it. We expect them to meet once a week during the project, with extra rehearsal time leading up to the final performance. We are committed to providing any assistance necessary so that our Creators Group can participate, i.e. contributions to travel expenses, new materials for study, rehearsal space.
We are interested in ambitious work which response to our Grade II listed building.
We are particularly seeking work which blends responses to our space, history and resources (including rare collections of classic poetry) with the contemporary spoken word.
We envisage this group finding a home here, utilising creative spaces/resources and delivering regular live literature showcases, working with Artists in Residence, Presidents and cultural partners.
By capturing the imaginations of a fresh, eclectic group of people, connecting them with outstanding artists and supporting them to make an innovative performance, we aim re-invigorate our cultural offering and bring great art to audiences from across Birmingham and beyond.

The 1965 National Football League Championship game was the 33rd championship game for the NFL. The game was played on January 2, 1966 at Lambeau Field, Green Bay, Wisconsin. The game matched the Eastern Conference champions Cleveland Browns (11-3) who were the defending NFL champions. The Western Conference champions Green Bay Packers (10-3-1) had defeated the Baltimore Colts a week earlier in a Western Conference play off. The Packers were making their first appearance in the championship game since 1962. This was the first NFL championship game televised in color.
With the victory the Packers won their 9th overall NFL title, 6th in the championship game era.
Game Day Preparations
The Packers coached by the irascible Vince Lombardi, would feature on offense, Bart Starr, Paul Hornung, Jim Taylor and Carroll Dale, along with linemen Jerry Kramer, Forrest Gregg and Fuzzy Thurston. Defensively Green Bay showcased Herb Adderly, Ray Nitschke, Willie Wood and Dave Robinson.
Cleveland, coached by Blanton Collier, had the implacable Jim Brown, WR's Gary Collins, Paul Warfield, guard Gene Hickerson and kicker Lou "The Toe" Groza on offense. Cleveland's defense however, during the regular season, allowed an average of 23.2 points and twice gave up 40+ points in losses to the lowly Cardinals and Rams.1
Despite a heavy snowstorm that blanketed the field, 50,777 hearty fans showed up in 26ºF weather. A tarp covered the field until shortly before kickoff and a moderated wind of 12 mph blew through Lambeau field.3 4 7

Tom Moore returned the opening kickoff to the GB 23-yard line and the Packers wasted no time in moving the ball as Bart Starr mixed Taylor and Hornung on running and short passing plays. After a Taylor 6-yard run up the middle to the Cleveland 47, Starr faked to Hornung and lofted a pass to Carrol Dale at the Cleveland 20. Cleveland's DB Walter Beach slid on the tricky surface while Dale kept his footing and galloped into the end zone amid the frenzied cheers of the Green Bay faithful. Don Chandler's kick put GB in front 7-0.
Cleveland took possession and immediately turned to Jim Brown. However instead of running, Brown circled out of the backfield and turned towards the right sideline where Frank Ryan hit him with a 30 yard pass despite good defense by linebacker Dave Robinson. Ryan continued passing hitting Warfield over the middle for 19 yards and Gary Collins on a square-out pattern near the right corner of the end zone for 17 yards and a touchdown. Green Bay fans responded by pelting Collins with snowballs. On the extra-point attempt, holder Bobby Franklin fumbled the snap, and Cleveland's kicker Lou Groza, who did not miss an extra point all year, pick up the errant ball, passed to Franklin and Green Bay's Willie Wood promptly tackled him, keeping Green Bay ahead, 7-6.
After a short punt gave the Browns possession in Green Bay territory, Ryan passed to Warfield for 11 yards and Jim Brown ran for 5 more. On the play Brown jumped to the outside when he found the middle awash in green and yellow jerseys. Green Bay's strategy throughout the game would be to clog the middle forcing Brown to hesitate while looking for room to run. Brown took extra steps to cut on the wet field thus giving the GB defense time to catch up. On 3rd down and 2, Ryan, instead of handing off to Brown, crossed up the defense and sent Warfield to the Post. Warfield beat safety Tom Brown and CB Doug Hart to the goal line but the ball slid through Warfield's outstretched hands and the Browns had to settle for a field goal. Lou Groza, the 41 year-old 6' 1", 240 lb lineman whose career extended all the way back to the A.A.F.C. , coolly kicked a 24 yard field goal to put Cleveland in front 9-7.
When the Packers took over on their own 27, Jerry Kramer escorted Paul Hornung around left end on the famous 6 "Green Bay Sweep", picking up 34 yards. Bart Starr passed to Boyd Dowler for 11 yards and Taylor gained 8 up the middle. Another sweep, this time led by Fuzzy Thurston followed by Hornung gave Green Bay a first down at the Cleveland 6 as the 1st qtr ended.
Cleveland's defense stiffened and Chandler kicked a 15 yard field goal, making it 10-9, GB.
With 7:42 left in the 2nd period, and Jim Brown unable to make headway, Cleveland's Frank Ryan again attempted to go deep to Warfield. The speedy Warfield, who caught only 3 passes all year, was now covered by GB defensive back Bob Jeter, replacing Doug Hart. Jeter's speed enabled him to keep up with Warfield and he batted down Ryan's pass at midfield. On 3rd down and 10, Ryan threw a quick pass to Leroy Kelly who was streaking up the right sideline. The ball was underthrown and GB's Willie Wood made a spectacular play tipping the ball to himself and returning the interception to the Cleveland 9 yard-line. Again Cleveland's defense rose to the occasion and held the Packers to a 23-yard field goal by Chandler, extending the Packer lead to 13-9.
With the clock winding down, Cleveland took over on their own 16 yard line. Field conditions were rapidly deteriorating, and Frank Ryan sent Jim Brown around left end on Cleveland's own version of the sweep and Brown tip-toed his way for 9 yards. Ryan then sent Brown sweeping around the right end. Cleveland's HOF guard Gene Hickerson led the way giving Brown room to find good footing and sprint down the sideline for 15 yards. After an incomplete pass and the middle of the field turning into a quagmire, Ryan sent Brown around left end. Brown found good traction near the sideline and picked 8 more yards. On 3rd down, Brown again tried sweeping around the right, but the Green Bay defense swarmed over him, forcing Cleveland to punt.
Green Bay took over deep in their own territory where Bart Starr committed one of the few mistakes of a Lombardi coached team. On 3rd down, Starr overthrew Hornung in the left flat and Jim Beach intercepted, toe tapping the sideline to give Cleveland the ball at the Green Bay 30 yard line.
Frank Ryan looked down field but threw incomplete to Collins at the goal line. Ryan's next pass attempt went awry as Ray Nitschke charged up the middle on a delayed blitz forcing a sack. Ryan then completed a pass to Brown on the left flat and Brown angled towards the sideline but was stopped at the Green Bay 21, 1 yard short of the first down. Groza's field goal sent the teams into halftime at 13-12, GB.
The 2nd half was all Green Bay as the weather brought more snow, fog, mud and less wide open play.
When Green Bay's Elijah Pitts carried a Cleveland punt backwards for -10 yards, the Packers were forced to start from their own 10-yard line. The Packers methodically marched down field as Forrest Gregg, Fuzzy Thurston, Ken Bowman and Jerry Kramer all made room for Taylor and Hornung to run. Hornung for 6 yards, Taylor for 8, Taylor left for 7 yards, Taylor for a 1st down to the Cleveland 46. A screen pass to Taylor for 10 yards, Hornung outside the right tackle for 20 yards. The 11 play, 90 yard drive culminated as Paul Hornung followed Jerry Kramer on a 13 yard TD sweep around left end. The play captured from an end zone ground level camera is on what seems like every Packer highlight reel.6 Chandler's point made the score 20-12, GB.
Fog rolled in as Cleveland looked to get even. With a 1st down on their own 31, Ryan scrambled for 8 yards and the Packers LeRoy Caffey was flagged for a 15 yard face mask penalty, one of only three penalties on the day for the Packers. Jim Brown however was unable to find any running room and Ryan continued to pass, hitting Collins for 11 yards, then looked for Brown in the end zone. The pass to Brown was slightly underthrown and Ray Nitschke was able to stretch and knock the ball out of Brown's hands. Cleveland would not get that close to the goal line the rest of the day. Ryan's next pass slipped out of his hand and Groza was brought in for the field goal attempt. Forrest Gregg however, broke through the Cleveland line and deflected Groza's kick.
The Packers continued to run Taylor (27 carries on the day for 96 yds) and Hornung (18 carries for 105 yds) to chew up the clock. Chandler kicked his third field goal bringing Lombardi and the Packers one step closer to their 3rd championship as a unit.
Cleveland had one last chance when Leroy Kelly took Chandler's ensuing kickoff and promptly angled towards the right sideline. At midfield, Chandler, the kicker, was the last player in Kelly's path. Kelly, with 10 more yards of room to his right, eschewed the sideline, cut back and into Chandler's path. Chandler held his ground and dropped Kelly on the frozen tundra. Cleveland could not move the ball and punted again.
The Packers also failed to move the ball, but Chandler was hit as he attempted to punt from the end zone giving the ball, and another opportunity to run down the clock, back to Green Bay. A last minute interception by Herb Adderly sealed Cleveland's fate.
VInce Lombardi-Jim Brown[edit | edit source]
Vince Lombardi proved to be a master tactician by stressing a ball control offense, assigning Nitschke to shadow Brown all day, and switching defensive assignments when Warfield was getting open early in the game. The Packers ran the ball 47 times for 204 yards 7 on the day while holding Cleveland to just 38 total offensive plays. Lombardi coached the team to stop Jim Brown and force Cleveland's other players to step up and try and win the game 6
This would be Jim Brown's last NFL game as he left at the top of his game to pursue a career in Hollywood.9 Brown, who had carried his team to an NFL title in 1964, would have no regrets, despite the fact that he was still a month shy of 30 years old.

Getting a total knee replacement is a big decision. There is often a lot of pain following the surgery and an arduous rehabilitation period that can keep a patient out of work for weeks while having to go through physical therapy. Unless the patient broke his or her knee in a traumatic accident or attack of some sort, it's generally considered an elective procedure. But the question becomes weighing the difficulty of coping with chronic and worsening pain versus undergoing a risky surgical operation – and all the recovery problems that may accompany it.
Now, there may be good news for knee replacement patients. A recent news article from Pantagraph indicates patients may be able to hit the showers sooner. There has long existed a fear that showering any sooner than two weeks might increase the likelihood of a post-operative infection.
Granted, the study is small, but it indicates no differences in bacterial swabs from patients who waited two weeks to shower compared with those allowed to shower after about two days.
Researchers have started looking into this issue to see whether it is an actual scientific fact, or just something surgeons advise based on anecdotal evidence. To perform this research, scientists are taking bacterial sways from patients who waited two weeks to take a shower following a total knee replacement procedure and also taking bacterial swabs from patients who took shower two days following surgery. These swabs, after being tested, showed no difference in the amount of type of bacteria from either group of patients. This is good news to those who do not want to wait 14 days following surgery to take a shower.
However, it should be noted that this was a small study at a single hospital in the Midwest involving 32 total knee replacement surgery patients. 16 patients were allowed to shower two days following the operation, and the other 16 patients were told to wait the normal two weeks. While these results are promising, it is clear to researchers that a larger scale study must be performed before there can be conclusive evidence that taking a shower less than two weeks following surgery is an unnecessary wait.
One thing to keep in mind is that while the vast majority of total knee replacement surgical procedures work fine and there are no serious consequences, the odds of complications go way up if the artificial knee being used in the operation was defectively designed. For example, as our Boston knee replacement injury attorneys have seen, the OtisKnee by OtisMed (now owned by Stryker) was shipped with a defective cutting guide. Not only was the cutting guide defective, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) specifically told the CEO that they were not approving the cutting guide and that he could not ship it to surgeons. He chose to do so anyway, despite the prohibition from FDA, and that decision cost him a stay in federal prison.
A cutting guide is used by a surgeon as a guide or template so he or she knows where to make a cut in the bone and tissues so that the new knee will fit as close to perfect as possible. If there is movement caused by an imperfect cut, that can result in pain and suffering and a possible complete failure of the artificial knee.

Q: OpenInNewTab function not working for button ID I'm trying to get a button when clicked, opens a new tab with the corresponding URL based on it's ID in Javascript. I'm planning on having multiple buttons with this feature and would like them go to different sites (thus the need for different ID's) Here's my button code and Javascript, but it's not opening up in another browser:
HTML
<button type="button" id="adbutton" class="adbutton"  nclick="OpenInNewTab()">
    RESERVE NOW
</button>

Javascript:
document.getElementById('.adbutton').onclick = function OpenInNewTab(url) {
    var win = window.open('http://www.example.org');
    win.focus();
}

A: Try this
You don't required selector (dot) like ('.adbutton') when you use getElementById use ('adbutton') and function you are calling it's asking (url) as parameter OpenInNewTab(url) you don't required it. If you are not passing any use OpenInNewTab()
 document.getElementById('adbutton').onclick = function OpenInNewTab() {
  var win = window.open('http://www.example.org');
  win.focus();
  }

check working demo https://jsfiddle.net/zvj2o7fy/7/ I hope this will solve your problem.

A: Because you are not passing any params to the function and it requires one, put (this.id) or (this.href) or whatever in the onclick call

function OpenInNewTab(id){
  alert(id);
var win = window.open('http://www.example.org');
  win.focus();
  }
<button type="button" id="adbutton" class="adbutton" onclick="OpenInNewTab(this.id)">RESERVE NOW</button>

A: You need to remove the . from
 document.getElementById('.adbutton')

and change it to
document.getElementById('adbutton')

and if you want to use the class selector you need to replace it with
document.getElementsByClassName('adbutton')[0].onclick = function OpenInNewTab(url) {
  var win = window.open('http://www.example.org');
  win.focus();
}

WORKING MODEL
Since the button already have onclick attribute you dont need this
document.getElementById('adbutton').onclick.
You can simply define the function
function OpenInNewTab(url) {
  var win = window.open('http://www.example.org');
  win.focus();
}

SEAT's e-touring car hits the track as e-motorsport continues to grow in popularity
There's no denying that since Formula E got going in 2014, electric motorsport has made its way into the public's psyche with 411 million people watching its flagship series last year. Now, the world's first electric-powered touring car, the CUPRA e-Racer, has made its track début with rallying and rally cross stalwart, Mattias Ekström, behind the wheel.
CUPRA's e-Racer is destined to take part in the ETCR (electronic touring car) series which will have its inaugural season next year. The car boasts 670bhp, which we can only guess also means an absolute mountain of torque, and represents a fair step-up from 345bhp power limit dictated by conventional touring car regulations.
As you'd expect, the CUPRA e-Racer is fast; 0-62mph takes 3.2 seconds, with 124mph coming up in 8.2 seconds. Its top speed is 167mph, and you can bet it reaches that speed pretty quickly, with each of the four motors spinning up to 12,000rpm and not having a sequential gearbox to worry about.
While the lack of a gearbox saves weight, it is made up for with the 450kg, 65kWh battery which has been developed by Williams Advanced Engineering. And unlike a petrol tank, draining it – which takes all of 25 miles – doesn't lighten the load. Despite the heft, CUPRA's resident racing driver, Ekström, was positive about the shake-down around the Montmeló Circuit in Barcelona.
"It felt really good, especially when reaching full power coming out of the slow corners on the circuit. I really enjoyed the first lap," said the Finn.
Getting used to an EV racing car wasn't without its challenges, however: "I think the biggest challenge is getting used to driving with no gearbox and without the roar of the engine as a reference for knowing, for example, how fast to go when taking curves," Ekström added.
CUPRA will have some stiff competition when the series kicks off next year, and whilst we're still finding out about how it will unfold in terms of teams and drivers, we do know that Hyundai is hot on the Spanish manufacturer's heels. It demonstrated their Veloster N ETCR at the Frankfurt Motor Show and since then, various videos have cropped up online of the car hammering around the Hungaroring.
ETCR isn't the only electric motorsport getting underway in the near future; for those who prefer their motorsport with added mud, Extreme E should fit the bill. Kicking off in 2021 and featuring Dakar-like SUVs powered purely by electricity, Extreme E will take place on short rally-raid style stages of around six miles in length at locations from glaciers to rainforests.
So far, we've seen the Odyssey 21 Extreme E SUV at Goodwood, but it was at a stage in development where it really wasn't making the most of its 536bhp. However, in the last week, the Odyssey 21 has been run for the first time at full tilt, thanks to the installation of the final race-spec XE motor, allowing for a proper shake-down to be undertaken.
Speaking to Autosport, World Rally Cross Driver and Extreme E test driver, Kevin Hansen, was extremely positive about the electric SUV: "I was surprised in many ways – it handles like a performance car and I was expecting a heavy car, a lazy car – a soft one. But you brake and start to push and it just feels natural, which is a very good job from the engineers to make a car feel just like it should be feeling this early."
So the outlook is positive for both the Extreme E series, and ETCR, if the feedback from the drivers and aspiring teams is anything to go by. We're really looking forward to both taking their place in an ever-growing list of e-motorsports, which are demonstrating that EVs don't need to be boring, bland and uninteresting. The lack of sound aside, EVs can deliver some of the most intense, interesting racing on the planet, and as F1 and WRC popularity wanes, perhaps now is the time for the rise of e-motorsport...

The Angels Dallas McPherson returned Saturday from minor league camp, where he had been sent to get extra ABs in intrasquad games in an effort to break him out of his spring slump. McPherson immediately struck out upon his return, but later stroked a clean looper to left center for a hit. McPherson continues to bat less than .100 and has had trouble hitting the ball out of the infield. It remains to be seen whether McPherson will stay with the big club or be demoted to Salt Lake City in two weeks. McPherson remains on the 40-man roster and is being given every chance to recover his stroke after injuries spoiled his season last year. Switch-hitting rookie Kendry Morales appears to be threatening to overtake McPherson in competition for the DH spot.
This is not a comment to this post specifically, but a general question I have after reading many of your blog posts.
Why do you favor steroid users?
This is apparent because you commonly refer to Sosa as "fiture hall of famer Sammy Sosa." It's also obvious because you mention nothing about Bonds' steroids controversy, but mention his pain and sleeping pills.
Are you heir apparent to Balco?

Return to Insights
Earlier this year, we stated that it was very possible that 2022 would be more volatile than 2021. That certainly proved true in the first quarter. By mid-February, most U.S. equity indices had fallen into correction territory (a fall of more than 10 percent) and yields on bonds had risen quite dramatically. The selloff was initially caused by higher than anticipated inflation, which was proving less temporary than experts and investors predicted in 2021. Then all eyes turned to Ukraine in mid-February, when Russia invaded the country, leading to a still ongoing war. Immediately after the invasion of Ukraine, investors had to adjust to a rapidly changing environment.
Despite the turmoil and uncertainty throughout the quarter, equity markets recovered in March. By the end of the first quarter, the S&P 500 had declined just under 5 percent year-to-date. Other equity markets – such as international developed, emerging markets and small-cap U.S. stocks – fell a bit more than the S&P 500, but the difference between the S&P 500 and these other asset classes was 3 percent or less.
Yields on bonds continued to rise even as equity markets recovered, so fixed-income investors did not fare quite as well. By the end of the quarter, investment grade fixed income had one of its worst quarters in 40 years as the Fed began raising rates and made plans to reduce its enormous balance sheet. Inflation remains elevated, partly due to the crisis in Ukraine, which has affected the price of many commodities and exacerbated supply chains issues.
This period follows an exceptional three years of portfolio performance for diversified investors, so it is important to put the current volatility in perspective. The chart below shows that while the first quarter was volatile and almost all global equity markets experienced declines, in the context of the past two or three years, the drop is fairly small relative to the overall gains during the period.
Stock market returns in perspective1
#1 Fed followed expected path
First, markets widely expected the Fed to begin raising policy rates in the first quarter and to end its asset purchase program in response to rising inflation and strong economic growth. Not only did the Fed do exactly that, but they have indicated they will likely accelerate their pace of tightening in the coming months. The Fed's last set of projections show that the federal funds rate will reach 1.75 percent by the end of the year, whereas more recent statements by Fed officials and fed funds futures show that a level of 2.5 percent is more likely. This means that 50 basis point rate hikes are possible at upcoming meetings. Equity markets recovered soon after the Fed's decision to raise rates a quarter percent in mid-March. The S&P 500 rebounded 8.6 percent in the second half of March while the Nasdaq recovered 13 percent. Both are still negative on the year, but no longer in correction territory. This serves as a reminder that Fed rate hikes are not only normal during economic expansions, but they are justified today given the strong economy and higher prices. With so much negative news in Q1, it can be easy to forget that corporate earnings, job growth and hiring continued to be robust in the first quarter, and the unemployment rate is down to 3.6 percent. These statistics show that markets can recover as events and policy decisions reduce uncertainty.
Market corrections and recoveries2
# 2 Yield curve flattened
Second, perhaps the most persistent impact of the Fed's change in policy is its effect on interest rates. The 10-year Treasury yield has risen above 2 percent for the first time since before the pandemic, and the 2-year treasury, which is more sensitive to Fed policy, almost tripled in yield. As a result, much of the yield curve, from two years to 30 years, has flattened completely. The yield curve even "inverted" briefly, with the yield on the two-year Treasury exceeding the yield on the 10-year. Many economists use this as a predictor of recession, although there is often a long lead time before the economy truly decelerates. It is also important to note that the Treasury curve is still upward sloping when looking at "real" yields, which are the difference between nominal yields and expected inflation.
While the first quarter of 2022 was painful for fixed-income investors, a move to higher yields is welcome as it allows for future reinvestment to be done at higher rates, a boon for anyone trying to live off the income produced from their portfolio. Investors should start to see higher rates on money market funds this year, and intermediate to long-term bond funds are already priced to yield much higher income levels than they were at the end of 2021.

#3 Ukraine conflict created more uncertainty
Finally, unlike the Fed's decision to raise interest rates, the conflict in Ukraine was a surprise to financial markets. Unlike changes in Fed policy, it is much harder to predict the outcome and side effects of geopolitical events like the war in Ukraine, which has caused volatility in financial, agricultural and commodities markets around the world. While the humanitarian consequences are still at the forefront, the war has had a big impact on the prices of many goods, from oil and natural gas to grains and nickel, as Ukraine and Russia are large exporters of many commodities. We anticipate elevated prices and volatility in these markets to continue in Q2 as countries try to figure out a way to reduce their reliance on Russian imports.
While every geopolitical crisis is different, history shows that equity markets are usually able to adjust and move forward over time. This was true during Russia's annexation of Crimea, the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, after 9/11, etc. This was even the case during the Cold War and throughout other conflicts of the 20th century. Investors who have not overreacted to these events, regardless of the news coverage and headlines, have often been rewarded.
Stocks and geopolitical events5
As a result, investors ought to remain focused and disciplined throughout challenging periods in the market. The first quarter underscores that investing requires taking the good with the bad. In fact, investors are rewarded in the long run because they can stick it out in difficult times. Despite the many shocks and unexpected events in the first quarter of 2022, investors should continue to stay patient and focused as markets adjust and shift in the second quarter and beyond.
