I've been in the industry since 2017. I take a lot of pride in everything that I do. I enjoy sharing special moments with other people and helping them feel the best they possibly can. Seeing somebody look in the mirror love the way they look and knowing that I had something to do with it makes my day.
I'm excited to have the opportunity to master my craft while I'm in the associate program with Kimberly, the owner. At this time I love giving scalp treatments and luxury blow dry services in the salon. I also offer tinsel hair extensions that add a little glitter to your hair.
My opportunity days to take clients are Tuesday's. I have early mornings and evenings available by request. I'd love to meet you and make your day!

CBOE Expands Index Options, Volatility Suite
By Terry Flanagan
Chicago Board Options Exchange is on an upward trajectory, building on another record year for trading volume with new index product launches and expansion of its volatility product line into new asset classes, such as fixed income and foreign exchange.
Trading activity on the CBOE reached new all-time highs in total volume and average daily volume in 2014. Options and futures contracts totaled 1.3 billion and ADV was 5.3 billion. Trading volume and ADV at CBOE Futures Exchange established new annual records for the fifth consecutive year.
CBOE's market share of total U.S. options industry volume in 2014 was 28%, up two percentage points from 2013.
"2014 was a solid year for us with volume ADV increasing 12%," CBOE Chief Executive Officer Ed Tilly said Tuesday at a media briefing in New York. "We had an increase across each of our product categories, and we outpaced the industry, and that is really because of the unique product set at CBOE. During the year, CBOE set all-time highs for index options, SPX options, VIX options, and futures."
CBOE is extending its index options business geographically through an agreement with MSCI to offer options trading on several MSCI indexes, including EAFE, Emerging Markets, ACQI, USA, World, and ACWI ex-USA. CBOE plans to offer options trading in the first quarter of 2015 on the EAFE and Emerging Markets indexes, and will list options on the other four MSCI indexes later in 2015.
Ed Tilly, CBOE
"These contracts will be cash-settled versions of the very popular ETFs that are currently available in the market place," said Tilly. "Just as we have contracts that replicate SPX, now at CBOE you will be able to trade a cash-settled European large notional value contract on MSCI. We couldn't be more pleased to broaden the hedging ability for our customers."
CBOE is also extending its volatility business into new asset classes. In November, CBOE Futures Exchange launched trading on its CBOE/CBOT 10-year U.S. Treasury Note Volatility Index (VXTYN Index).
The market for interest-rate derivatives, by far the largest asset class in the over-the-counter market, is estimated to be 40 times the size of the equity market in terms of notional value outstanding, yet until recently it's lacked a consistent benchmark for calculating and trading volatility.
"We are seeing an interest in trading volatility, particularly in listed contracts, which will now allow us to go beyond equities," said Jim Lubin, senior managing director of CBOE Futures Exchange. "Interest rates was our first foray."
The VXTYN Index, on which futures on VXTYN are based, is calculated by applying the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) methodology to futures options data from CME Group's 10-year U.S. Treasury note contract — one of CME Group's most actively traded interest rate options products. CBOE has been disseminating daily values for the VXTYN Index since last year.
Potential users of VXTYN futures could include mortgage-backed securities investors and other large credit managers seeking to hedge against adverse interest rate movements; large bond funds that are naturally long interest rate volatility and are seeking a yield-enhancing mechanism; and hedge funds, volatility arbitrage firms and global macro participants.
CBOE has also begun disseminating values for three new volatility indexes that CBOE calculates using the prices of CME Dollar/Euro, Dollar/British Pound, and Dollar/Japanese Yen futures options.
The underlying options are the most liquid FX options listed at the CME. In 2014, they amounted to a combined 80% of the more than 15 million currency options traded at CME.
"In concert with our partners at the CME, we are providing the ability to trade volatility on their dollar-denominated contracts on the euro, British pound, and Japanese yen," Lubin said. "We feel that this is going to be another unique opportunity for CBOE to spearhead this expansion into other asset classes."
Derivatives on FX constitute the second-largest derivatives sector after interest rates. FX contracts account for approximately 10% of open interest and 10% of total derivatives turnover. The increasing diversification of asset portfolios has increased trading of FX derivatives, with average daily volume reaching $5.3 trillion in 2013.
"The over-the-counter market in foreign exchange volatility trading is quite large, and we're quite optimistic of the uptake of our partners right now in this area," Lubin said.

Steve Young, NFL Quarterback. Leadership, Business, and Motivational Speaker.
In 1987, Young was traded to the San Francisco 49ers where he served as the backup to Hall of Famer Joe Montana. After seeing limited action in his first four seasons with the 49ers, Young stepped into the starting role in 1991 after Montana suffered an injury. Young wasted little time in taking command of the 49ers offense.
Despite a knee injury that forced him out of five games that season, Young passed for 2,517 yards and 17 touchdowns to post a league high 101.8 passer rating – the first of four straight passing titles. Young added two more passing titles in 1996 and 1997 to tie him with the legendary Sammy Baugh as the only quarterbacks in history to win six NFL passing crowns.
His finest season came in 1994 when he posted a then-record 112.8 passer rating by completing 324 of 461 passes for 3,969 yards and 35 touchdowns. Young also added seven rushing touchdowns as he guided the 49ers to a NFC West title with a 13-3 record. The team then coasted through the post-season. In the NFC championship game that year, Young threw two touchdowns and rushed for one as the 49ers downed the Dallas Cowboys 38-28.
He topped off the year with an incredible performance in San Francisco 's 49-26 win over the San Diego Chargers in Super Bowl XXIX. Young passed for 325 yards and threw a Super Bowl record six touchdowns. He also was the game's leading rusher with 49 yards on five carries. For his efforts, he was named the Super Bowl Most Valuable Player.

Align Technology Awards Geomagic Software License and Development Contract
1.6-million initial commitment from Invisalign maker sets stage for first application of mass customization
RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., February 5, 2001- Align Technology (NASDAQ: ALGN), maker of the Invisalign orthodontic system, has awarded Geomagic a software license and development contract valued at more than $1.6 million.
The contract is the first phase of what is expected to be a long-term strategic partnership between the two companies. It will help make Align Technology the first company to offer "mass customization" -- individually designed products that can be manufactured in large quantities for the general public. Align is expected to deliver millions of Invisalign devices, each precisely fitted to individuals during various stages of orthodontic treatment.
Align's customized manufacturing process requires the latest technologies in computer graphics and animation, computational geometry, computer vision, and 3D scanning and printing. Geomagic is providing patented technology and engineering services that enable Align to optimize its manufacturing process to meet current demand and increase its capacity in the future.
"This agreement is the most significant milestone since Geomagic's inception [in 1996]," says Ping Fu, the company's president and CEO. "Align Technology will make history as the first company to lead the wave of mass customization for the 21st century."
Align Technology selected Geomagic as its partner based on the company's technology and "world-class talent," according to Zia Chishti, Align Technology's CEO. "Our design and manufacturing processes require automation, throughput and customization, all of which Geomagic has the unique ability to provide."
Geomagic develops and markets Geomagic Studio, the first 3D product to provide precise dimensional (geometry) and photometric (color) information in one process. The result is true-to-life 3D models that can be created in minutes by anyone, rather than in days by a specialist. The company was founded in 1996 and is based in Research Triangle Park, N.C.
Align Technology designs, manufactures and markets the Invisalign System, a proprietary new method for treating malocclusion, or the misalignment of teeth. The Invisalign System corrects malocclusion using a series of clear, nearly invisible, removable appliances that gently move teeth to a desired final position. Because it does not rely on the use of metal or ceramic brackets and wires, the Invisalign System significantly reduces aesthetic and other limitations associated with braces.

Few people would say that Scott Whiddon doesn't keep himself busy. As a follow up to the three EPs released by his band, Palisades, since 2014, Scott is now putting himself out there with a full length album of solo material. In Close Quarters with the Enemy – a title taken from the work of Walt Whitman – Scott's musical and literary influence (he's Director of the Writing Center at Transylvania University) are as pronounced as ever. Fans of Palisades will find his songwriting familiar, but have occasion on this album to hear it in a more relaxed setting, now with the back up of J. Tom Hnatow, Robby Cosenza, and Cecilia Miller Wright.
The album opens with the beautiful instrumental track, "The Bird Girl" – one that builds layers of acoustic guitar, strings, and piano to give a hint at the atmosphere surrounding the remainder of the album. "Holidays" is built on a low, droning guitar and sets the scene of a kid struggling to fit in – 'he's got some kind of accent // he's not like the other boys upstate.' On "Faster than We Hoped," Scott's lyrics effortlessly evoke imagery of a pair pushing a car off a cliff, putting the past behind them. The melancholy of the track is supported by a mellow organ and sweet vocal harmonies during the choruses – a warm harmonica provides a nice, sweet color for the bridge.
The title track, "In Close Quarters with the Enemy," is perhaps the most like Palisades – it carries throughout it a more distorted electric guitar, features a group singing harmonies during an extra-catchy chorus, followed immediately by a more intense break-down bridge. All the while, the track feels right at home at this point the album, providing a sort of high point in it's arc. Following is "The Breakers," another instrumental track that picks up exactly where the first instrumental left off – it brings the intensity back down as the album drives towards its end, and is even more lovely than the opening track it compliments. The album's final track, "What We Knew All Along," is colored by organ, light drums, and understated bass; the song's middle section is perhaps the most beautiful of the album, but it never breaks a sweat.
Those who have heard Scott's work before should enjoy the sounds on In Close Quarters with the Enemy – though, sonically, things are different here than on Palisades recordings, Scott's songwriting retains a strong sense of itself. At many points throughout the album, I found myself with vivid pictures of the lyrical subjects in my head. These songs have a strong sense of place, and though his memories are not my own, those shared here are nearly universally relatable – it's easy to feel as though they belong to you.
Tracks I Liked: Scatter and Fade!, Holidays!!, Faster than We Hoped!, In Close Quarters with the Enemy!!, The Breakers!, What We Knew All Along!!!


First time I have seen that in more than hundred replays checked.
Could it be that warcraft III throws an error and ignore all the actions contained in a 0x1F block (I assume this was not a 0x1E block ) ?
Could this be due to some kind of data corruption on this player side? I've seen altered replays but never in this way.
Maybe it doesn't ignore the whole 0x1F block (yes, those are 0x1F), but probably one CommandData block in the 0x1F block. At least that's what I will do from now on when encountering an unknown action.
I don't know what it is but I'm almost sure it was done on purpose - watch the replay, even though the guy did nothing for the first 50 seconds, he generated those abnormal actions.
You could probably ignore the whole block.
So it's probably not reproductible or very specific.
PS: Could it be some server side hack or problem that truncates incoming packet from a player?
Meaning the player is immobilized and can't enter orders?
The way you describe this (Selects/Deselects at the beginning of a match) definitely sounds like Maphack... as if he was selecting/deselecting the opponent's buildings/units when he should not have been able to view them.
I actually kinda doubt it is maphack.
I have never seen it before.
* A rare bug affecting one of the guy in the game, either the host or either the player who got this actions truncated.
* An edited replay, in some way..., in which goal I don't know.
I'll think for the first hypothesis.


The event's operations team partnered with enterprise cloud company, Salesforce, to support both a Satellite Events Program as well as create its first social media command centre. Salesforce Marketing Cloud APAC head of product marketing, Derek Laney, told CMO the challenge was to increase engagement and share ideas beyond this one event and its physical walls.
"The venue itself was limited by space, so this year we decided to partner with TEDx to try and take the message out to the online community and we did that in a couple of ways," he said.
The first of these was linking the online community with the physical community and the Opera House. Salesforce created its first ever social media command centre at TEDx, showing visualisations of online conversations in real-time. Using Salesforce Social Studio, a single app for social marketing, engagement and analytics, the onsite centre allowed TEDxSydney to bring conversations happening online across Australia back into the main event.
Secondly, Laney said Salesforce empowered the Satellite Program to enable those that wanted to independently host their own smaller TEDx events at offices and community groups and educational institutions to be involved. These Satellite Events ran parallel to the main event, which ran at the Sydney Opera House earlier this month.
Using a livestream link-up, the Satellite Events program brought together a network of local, self-organised events for attendees to share these TED-like experiences via livestream technology and social media.
Since launching in 2013, the TEDxSydney Satellite Events program has reached more than 16,000 Australians. More than 30 satellite hosts were pre-registered this year, including a major event with the University of Sydney that attracted in excess of 5000 people.
For organisations wanting to embrace new ways of audience engagement, Laney suggested looking for social platforms to springboard off in order to create that intimacy with events.
Laney also believed the TEDx model of simplicity and brevity is something more organisations and events should adopt within their own idea-sharing strategies to be successful.
Laney also pointed to an increasing number of organisations in Australia are now looking for multi-disciplinary approaches to encourage creativity in their own organisations, by bringing in ideas together from the arts, business, science and technology communities to create a culture of innovation.

Autograph Album Presented in 1878 to Eva A. Pomroy of Bangor, Maine, by Future Husband George W. Coffin
Please scroll down to the comments section for a reader's information.
Autograph album presented in 1878 to Eva A. Pomroy of Bangor, Maine, by her future husband George W. Coffin of Aroostook County, Maine, and Bangor.
The album is approximately 7-3/4" x 4-3/4" and contains the sentiments of nearly 50 of Eva's relatives, friends, schoolmates and Bangor, Maine, neighbors. An alphabetical list of the signers appears at the end of this post.
From online research, hopefully correct: [corrections and additions welcome!]
Eva A. Pomroy was born at Bangor, Maine, about May 23, 1860 [using her date of death and her age in years, months and days as appeared on her Maine death record]. Her parents were Daniel Kilby Pomroy and Margaret (Gullifer) Pomroy, who were born at Charlotte, Maine, and Bangor, Maine, respectively.
Eva's mother, Margaret (Gullifer) Pomroy, signed a page in her album on March 13, 1879.
Eva's sister, Lillian F. Pomroy, signed twice, once at Bangor, Maine, on December 12, 1878, and again after her marriage to Edward P. Austin, who signed the left facing page on February 21, 1885.
On 22 April 1879, Eva A. Pomroy married George W. Coffin, son of Rufus S. and Olive (Brown) Coffin, who were born in Freedom, Maine, and Greene, Maine, respectively. Rufus and his older brother Artemas were among the early settlers of the Ashland, Maine, area. George W. Coffin was born in this area about April 1855.
At the time of their marriage, Eva was a teacher at Six Mile Falls, Bangor, and George was a tanner at Bangor, living in the household of Simeon Lord on Broadway. This information came from information provided by AmericanPomeroys.org, which gives Eva's surname as Pomeroy.
It appears that after their marriage, George and Eva lived at Ashland, Maine, for a while. The 1880 Census found them living in a household at Ashland with George's younger sister Vara.
By the time of the 1900 Census, they were enumerated at Bangor, Maine. They may have moved back to Bangor, Maine, by 1885 when some Bangor people signed in Eva's album, or perhaps she was visiting.
Eva and George had several children, one of whom, Fred Leslie Coffin, inscribed a page on January 4, 1896.
Eva's granddaughter, Clarene Coffin, signed several pages in 1922, 1923 and 1933. She was the daughter of Eva's oldest son Millard Fillmore Coffin, and would become a poet, author, teacher and minister. She would marry Rev. Jack Grenfell, whom she met at Hartford Theological Seminary.
Eva died on 18 October 1914 and is buried at Mount Hope Cemetery at Bangor, Maine. George died 16 August 1919.
Other relatives of Eva and George signed in the album; see the list below.

It says Clara and Millard had three children, but really they had six children. They had four sons (Millard Fillmore Coffin, Merle Leon Coffin, Lloyd Oscar Coffin, and Hazen Bartlett Coffin), and two daughters: Lillian Fellows Coffin, and Clarene Mildred Coffin (who later spelled her name Clarine).

The building is the headquarters for PIDC at the Navy Yard, and also houses offices for site property manager, CBRE, and the EEB Hub offices. The building was heavily instrumented in 2012 and is subject to intense research scrutiny. Building 101 is undergoing a phased energy retrofit, as measures are proposed and evaluated, and as systems reach end of life.
Three energy audits conducted on building and were subject of earlier research report.
A new BAS system was installed in the winter of 2013. A brief evaluation of year over year electric energy consumption showed a 14% drop for a period in March 2013 compared with the prior year.
HVAC systems in the building are currently under evaluation for partial replacement due to condenser failure in one unit. Additional HVAC and lighting recommendations are under evaluation. A fourth energy audit is being arranged.

New Financial Inclusion Strategy in Sierra Leone
December 16, 2016 Freetown –
"Leaving nobody behind" is the very foundation of the Sustainable Development Goals. Therefore, we are happy to be working on this important initiative – which will make sure that more people in Sierra Leone have access to finance – together with the Bank of Sierra Leone
Sunil Saigal, Resident Coordinator, United Nations in Sierra Leone
The Bank of Sierra Leone is launching the National Strategy for Financial Inclusion, which will accelerate access to financial services for over 87% of the economically active population who are currently left out of the formal and regulated financial system.
Why does financial inclusion matter? With no access to formal financial services it's difficult for people to build up savings or buy insurance, which makes households more vulnerable to potential risks and shocks. Also, small businesses in important sectors such as agriculture find it difficult to build assets or obtain financing to increase productivity, expand or hire more people.
The National Strategy for Financial Inclusion is a four-year plan that is developed through a consultative process in order to ensure that key stakeholders will work together to play their important roles in contributing to, and driving, financial inclusion.
According to Central Bank Governor K. Marah, "the Strategy is a guiding tool; it is a result of extensive engagements and consultations with government agencies, private sector stakeholders and representatives of consumer bodies. We will strengthen delivery of affordable and transformative financial services for our farmers, rural markets, youth, and other agents of growth."
The Nati onal Strategy prioritizes new and innovative partnerships in order to ensure that common service standard and shared delivery channels are built to improve outreach and lower cost for the customer. Digital payments are a key pillar of the new National Strategy for Financial Inclusion. The Government of Sierra Leone is a member of the UN's Better Than Cash Alliance – a global partnership of 55 governments, companies and international organizations committed to moving away from cash to digital payments to reduce poverty and drive inclusive growth.
Financial inclusion has also been identified as one of the Sustainable Development Goals, a set of targets that will guide the international development agenda over the next decade.
According to United Nations Resident Coordinator Sunil Saigal, "Greater access to financial services is a key enabler for many of the Sustainable Development Goals. We are aiming to make sure nobody is left behind and being able to build up savings, for example, can have far reaching benefits for all."
Sierra Leone is one of the countries where United Nations Capital Development Fund (UNCDF) is focusing its financial inclusion efforts through the joint United Nations Development Programme (UNDP)/UNCDF West Africa Digital Financial Inclusion Programme.
According to Gerd Trogemann, Africa Bureau UNDP Regional Service Centre Manager a.i., "UNDP and UNCDF have collaborated to deliver demand-driven technical assistance to the Bank of Sierra Leone and the wider digital financial inclusion stakeholders. This builds on the work of UNDP and UNCDF on mobile payments to Ebola Response Workers during the Ebola epidemic. We congratulate the Bank of Sierra Leone on the launch of this important document and look forward to working together on its implementation."
The National Strategy is part of the national agenda to contribute to a deep, competitive and stable financial system that delivers transformative financial services: to make financial services available, accessible and affordable to all Sierra Leoneans and MSMEs, and support inclusive and resilient private-sector led growth. This is a national plan with measureable targets, namely the G-20 Financial Inclusion indicators, tracked on a quarterly basis.
Said Governor Marah at the launch held today, "Ultimately while there is a strong social case for financial inclusion, the business case is paramount for its success. With 87% of market yet to be captured, the opportunity is great for delivery of financial services to play the pivotal role for economic diversification, inclusive growth and greater dignity to the people and businesses of Sierra Leone."

Very sturdy and of good quality. Liked the size. The framework is black so the snowflakes aren't very visible during the day which would have provided additional decorative functionality. Would have preferred LED lights, but liked the snowflakes enough to buy them anyway.

Tyler Kalinoski (born December 19, 1992) is an American professional basketball player for Unicaja of the Spanish Liga ACB. Kalinoski was a McDonald's All-American nominee as a senior at Olathe East High School  in Kansas and completed his college career for the Davidson Wildcats. He was named Atlantic 10 Conference Men's Basketball Player of the Year in 2015.

High school career
Kalinoski competed for Olathe East High School under coach Jim Super. He was named to the first-team All-Sunflower League in 2010 and 2011. As a senior, he averaged 17.1 points, 5.8 rebounds, 5.7 assists, and 2.2 steals per game, leading the team in all statistical categories. The Wichita Eagle and Topeka Capital Journal selected him to the 6A first-team all-state, and the Olathe News named him Player of the Year in his senior year. He was a McDonald's All-American nominee.

College career
Kalinoski was the last player recruited by Davidson. In his freshman year in 2011–12, Kalinoski posted averages of 4.7 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 17.4 minutes a game. His best game was a 17-point outing in the quarterfinals of the Southern Conference tournament against Furman, in which he knocked down five 3-pointers. As a sophomore in 2012–13, he averaged 7.6 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 22.6 minutes per game. On 13 occasions he scored in double figures.

As a senior in 2014–15, Kalinoski guided Davidson to a 23-6 record and Atlantic 10 regular season championship despite being picked 12th in the preseason coaches poll. He led Davidson in scoring with 16.9 points per game and finished second on the team with 5.7 rebounds per game. On March 9, 2015, CBS Sports named Kalinoski player of the week after he scored 22 points in a win over VCU and 32 points in a win over Duquesne. At the conclusion of the regular season he was named Atlantic 10 player of the year. Kalinoski hit a buzzer-beater to prevent a La Salle victory in the quarterfinals of the Atlantic 10 Tournament, capping a 14-point comeback.

Professional career
Kalinoski went undrafted in the 2015 NBA draft. On June 26, he signed with the Miami Heat to play in the 2015 NBA Summer League.  "I want to seize the moment and just go out and play," he said. When Summer League ended, Miami and the Charlotte Hornets were interested in signing him as a fringe player, with the perspective of spending most of the season in the NBA D-League.

After impressing at Summer League, Kalinoski opted against trying his luck in the NBA as a fringe player or in the NBA D-League, and he joined French League club Élan Chalon.

On July 22, 2016, Kalinoski joined Apollon Patras of the Greek Basket League.

He signed with the Antwerp Giants on June 21, 2017.

On July 31, 2019, he signed a contract with Teksüt Bandırma of the Turkish Basketball Super League (BSL). He averaged 10.7 points, 3.5 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game. Kalinoski signed with Germani Basket Brescia of the Italian league on June 18, 2020.

In the summer 2021, Kalinoski signed for Breogán of the Spanish Liga ACB.

On July 9, 2022, he has signed with Unicaja of the Spanish Liga ACB.

Home/Mariners Draft
Seattle Mariners: Draft Tracker for Day 2 of 2019 MLB Draft
By Ty Gonzalez
OAKLAND, CA - APRIL 06: Bats and helmets belonging to the Seattle Mariners rest in the dugout during their game against the Oakland Athletics at the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum on April 6, 2010 in Oakland, California. (Photo by Ezra Shaw/Getty Images) /
Day 2 of the 2019 MLB Draft has kicked off, and we'll have you covered on the eight picks the Mariners will make today.
The Mariners wrapped up a busy Day 1 with three picks, going with three college arms in Elon University RHP George Kirby, TCU LHP Brandon Williamson, and Arkansas RHP Isaiah Campbell. All three will likely sign for slot or underslot, so Seattle may get a bit more aggressive in a rich pool of prep and undergraduate players here on Day 2.
Today, the MLB Draft will cover rounds 3-10 and will resume tomorrow to finalize the remaining 30 rounds. With these eight rounds today, picks will go by pretty quickly, making it pretty hard to keep up. But we're going to make that a little easier for you, the reader, with this post, which will be actively updated as the Mariners make each and every one of their selections today.
Round 3, Pick 97: Levi Stoudt, RHP, Lehigh University
Another pick, another college arm for the Seattle Mariners. This time it's Levi Stoudt, a right-handed junior out of Lehigh. Aside from his 80-grade name, Stoudt has flashed a solid four-pitch repertoire that features a mid-90s fastball and a deceptive changeup.
In 11 appearances this year (63.2 innings pitched), Stoudt posted a 3.53 ERA with 69 strikeouts and 21 walks. Not great numbers considering the lack of competition in the Patriot League, but the focus is on Stoudt's ability to use all four of his pitches effectively on a consistent basis.
It's possible that Stoudt will wind up in the bullpen later on in his professional career, though his repertoire and the relatively above-average command will give him any and every chance to make it as a back-of-the-rotation starter. With four starting pitchers now under their belts through the first three rounds of the draft, it'll be interesting to see where Jerry Dipoto and his crew turn their attention to moving forward. – Ty
Round 4, Pick 126: Tim Elliott, RHP, University of Georgia
The Mariners continued their clear strategy of drafting college pitchers by selecting Tim Elliott and right-handed pitcher from the University of Georgia. Elliott stands at 6'1, 180 lbs which lead some scouts to wonder if he can start at the pro level.
The one thing going for Elliott is his work ethic and baseball IQ, which led him to continually grow his game in his 3 years at UGA. He does have a starter repertoire including a low 90's fastball and two average breaking balls and a changeup that could become above-average.
In 2019, Elliott put up a 2.93 ERA in 61 innings while striking out 60 batters and walking 21. Elliott has hit 95 a few times, so adding him into the bullpen could be the long-term plan. For now, they'll continue to use him as a starter and see if they can get more out of him than his tools currently suggest. – Colby
Round 5, Pick 156: Austin Shenton, 3B, Florida International University
Finally, a position player! With their sixth selection of the draft, the Mariners finally addressed their infield by taking Florida International third baseman Austin Shenton. In 53 games for FIU this year, Shenton slashed .330/.425/.513 with seven home runs and 47 RBIs.
The Mariners had been close to Shenton for the first year of his collegiate career, where he played ball for Bellevue College. Teams had been impressed with Shenton after a strong performance in the Cape Cod League last summer, but a slow start due in part to a hamstring injury had tempered his stock going into the draft.
Shenton isn't the most athletic prospect and may not be able to stick at third base, but he has the arm to at least afford him a chance at the position on a professional level. The bat is the biggest play here, however, as his sweet left-handed swing should translate nicely to the pros and take him far through Seattle's organizational ranks. – Ty
Round 6, Pick 186: Michael Limoncelli, RHP, Horsehead HS (NY)
With their sixth-round pick, the Mariners selected their first prep player, snagging a prep arm with some good upside. The 6'2″, 180 lbs righty is currently rehabbing from Tommy John Surgery which caused his stock to slip.
When healthy, Limoncelli was 92-93 with his fastball. He flashed a plus curveball and feel for a changeup with average or better control as well. The Coastal Carolina commit will now hand over his rehab to the Mariners and their doctors.
There has to be hope that the team can add a tick or two his heater and refine his command when healthy which could help him reach his upside of a #4 starter. – Colby
Round 7, Pick 216: Adam Macko, LHP, Vauxhall HS (Alberta, Canada)
Thought to be one of the best Canadian prospects in this year's draft, Adam Macko becomes the seventh pitcher selected through the first eight picks of Seattle's draft this year. Macko is currently working with a three-pitch repertoire that features a fastball that currently sits in the high-80s but has grown some consistency in the low-90s over the spring.
It'll be interesting to see if the Mariners are able to sign Macko, who currently has a commitment to pitch for Purdue next season. But given the fact that they took him in the seventh round should indicate some confidence in their ability to ink him to a deal.
If so, Macko is going to be an interesting project for Seattle. While he's definitely not the kind of prep arm to have an ace-like ceiling, Macko's toolset appears fairly advanced for an 18-year-old southpaw and his dominance at recent Perfect Game events back that up. If he can fill out a bit more and build some strength and more velocity into his game, the Mariners may have found something here in the latter half of Day 2. – Ty
Round 8, Pick 246: Ty Adcock, RHP, Elon University
The Mariners go back to Elon to snag their first pick's teammate in right-handed pitcher Ty Adcock. Initially coming to Elon as a catcher, Adcock tried his hand at pitching in 2018 to little success, but stuck with it through this season and really turned heads with a significant uptick in velocity that saw him touch 97 on the radar gun.
Adcock kept hitting as well and served as a true two-way player for Elon this year, slashing .251/.335/.480 and leading the team in home runs and RBIs with 12 and 56, respectively. As fun as it would be, Adcock won't be a two-way player at the next level and will solely focus on pitching, where some believe he could eventually reach 100+ mph on his fastball.
Of the haul of pitchers the Mariners have selected up to this point, Adcock is the first clear-cut reliever. Considering that he's still new to pitching at a high level, don't expect him to reach the Major Leagues as quickly as other highly-drafted relievers. But the velocity potential is exciting, and if he performs, he may have the best chance of reaching the Majors first out of Seattle's entire class. – Ty
Round 9, Pick 276: Mike Salvatore, SS, Florida State University
After picking back-to-back prep arms, the Mariners were likely in need of some bonus pool savings with their final three picks of Day 2. That's been the case so far, as Seattle has drafted two college seniors in a row. However, they aren't sacrificing talent and production with either pick, especially here with Mike Salvatore.
In 60 games for the Seminoles this year, Salvatore slashed .341/.430/.549 with seven home runs and 50 RBIs. Before this season, he had been viewed as a glove-first prospect, but the bat greatly improved upon an underwhelming 2018 season and has suddenly become a legit tool for him. He generates a lot of contact and doesn't strike out a lot.
Defensively, Salvatore has a real chance to be an average-or-better shortstop with solid fielding instincts and a good arm. That'll keep him interesting, even if the bat doesn't continue to trend upwards. It's a good value for the M's in the ninth round, who get just their second position player of this class thus far. – Ty
Round 10, Pick 306: Kyle Hill, RHP, Baylor University
The Mariners wrapped up the second day the MLB Draft by selecting college senior reliever Kyle Hill with their 8th selection of the day. Hill made 21 appearances for the Baylor Bears in 2019, posting 34 strikeouts to 9 walks in 27 innings pitched, without allowing a run, earned or otherwise, while on the mound. – Colby
Next. M's take 3 pitchers on Day 1, including RHP Isaiah Campbell. dark
9 of the 11 players selected by Seattle have been pitchers. The MLB Draft will continue tomorrow morning at 9 AM PDT with rounds 11-40. Follow us on Twitter for updates throughout the day.


Today, Google announced that it is acquiring Postini, an on-demand security provider. This very good piece of instant analysis by Internet News suggests that the deal signals that Google wants to move Google Apps aggressively into the enterprise sector. This requires a higher level of security, both to win the confidence of big companies in general and to reassure them that they will meet Sarbanes-Oxley, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and other regulatory obligations.
This is a good point at which to take a look at the security vendor landscape. The temptation is to separate business consolidation from the fast-paced technology changes. The two are highly interrelated, however.
On the business side, the market has been roiled by the entrance of Microsoft's stand-alone products and the reaction that has elicited from competitors. Separately, there has been a spate of deals of the past several months, including the purchase of SurfControl by Websense, Cisco's acquisition of IronPort and IBM's deal for Watchfire, in addition to today's announcement.
Google's acquisition of Postini was not unexpected. This BtoB Magazine piece from March suggests that e-mail filtering acquisitions will peak from March, when the analysis was published, until next spring. The piece, which takes a closer look at the Cisco acquisition of IronPort, says that the networking company considers e-mail security a "natural extension" of its existing security products and offerings.
E-mail security is not the only security technology sector in which consolidation is trendy. Network access control (NAC) approaches create a framework for controlling whether an end point is allowed onto a network. It also makes sure that the end points security is up to snuff and oversees the level of access that is allowed. This is a complex undertaking, which joins previously discreet technologies. The natural extension of this technical consolidation is the joining of the companies that offer those point products and high-level management layers. A blogger at IT-centro makes a compelling case that complex and diffuse NAC approaches make consolidation more likely. Whether the blogger (and Forrester Researcher Paul Stamp, who is paraphrased in the post) are discussing NAC, the broader world of security, or both is important. The more moving parts a technological platform has, the more important it is to have a fewer number of contributing vendors.
The security industry is in flux. In some cases, the applications are new. In others -- such as unified communications -- linkage between existing technology is the new twist. The preexisting vendor landscape was characterized by small players that covered only a sliver of the overall waterfront.

Melanoma is a highly aggressive skin tumor that originates in the epidermis from melanocytes. As melanocytes share with the nervous system a common neuroectodermal origin and express all neurotrophins (NTs), we evaluated the expression and function of NTs and their receptors in melanoma. We report that primary and metastatic melanoma cell lines synthesize and secrete all NTs. Moreover, melanoma cells express the low-affinity (p75NTR) and the high-affinity tyrosine kinase NT receptors (Trk). The inhibition of Trk receptors by either K252a or Trk/Fc chimeras prevents proliferation, indicating that autocrine NTs are responsible for this effect. NT-3, NT-4, and nerve growth factor (NGF) induce cell migration, with a stronger effect on metastatic cell lines. Transfection with p75NTR small interfering RNA (p75NTRsiRNA) or treatment with K252a inhibits NT-induced melanoma cell migration, indicating that both the low- and high-affinity NT receptors mediate this effect. All melanoma cell lines express the p75NTR coreceptor sortilin by which proNGF stimulates migration in melanoma cells, but not in cells transfected with p75NTRsiRNA. These results indicate that NTs, through their receptors, play a critical role in the progression of melanoma.

These two are definitely a favorite fictional couple of all-time. I read the series last year, but I listened to books one and two on audiobook this year... which made it possible to add them to the list! Yay! This series might become a yearly reread for me, and the relationship between Sam and Grace is a huge reason for that. Their relationship is so real and honest and giving. I love it!
Oh my word, their relationship is stunning. They are really there for one another and there is no end to what they would do to be together. They're simply made for each other.
These two are simply too adorable! Etienne St Clair is a freakin' dream and Anna couldn't escape his appeal (and neither could I). These two compliment one another very well and I really hope we get to see (or hear) more of them in Isla and the Happily Ever After next year!
How freakin' cute are these two?! In what turned out to be quite a dark sequel to Daughter of Smoke and Bone, Zuzana and Mik brought a lot of humanity and romance to the story. These two are so incredibly in love, it's almost ridiculous. Almost, but not quite... it's just that adorable.
Again, these two were made for each other. Lily is such a spaz and Quince really grounds her. They may have had a rough start, but boy are they perfect together.
Holy swoon, these two are amazing. Charlotte has this HUGE secret and Harlin is so incredibly patient with her about it. Though I was screaming for her to tell him from the start, I always had hope they could work anything out. A beautiful relationship in a beautiful book.
There's just something about a relationship in which one partner brings out the best in the other. I simply love that! Sara is so good for Tobey, it's insane. He is also exactly who she needs, too. They balance one another out very well.
This may come as a surprise, but there is a fantastic couple within this dark novel! Being the son of a serial killer, Jazz is always worried about what he might be capable of. Connie is the absolute perfect girl for him! She's confident, smart, brave and she has complete faith in Jazz. SUCH a good match!
Okay... this one is a little more tough because Elder really kind of carries the relationship. Amy is so confused by everything that has happened to her since waking up, she can't see what's right in front of her face! She so infuriating, but Elder is patience personified. These two have some serious capabilities to be a top-notch couple and I can't wait to see if that's explored more in Shades of Earth.
This one, admittedly, might be stretching it a bit. I wanted the two of them to be a couple the second Kai showed up at Cinders shop! This is a case where, whilst reading, I simply knew these two had to be together. They just do!
Also, come see which characters were my favorites last year! Check it out right here!
Hee hee. At least books are awesome, so don't feel too bad for spending money on them. :) I'm glad my list has inspired you to read some of the books!!
Great list! I love Grace and Sam. They may well be my favourite couple ever. And Amy and Elder are awesome too and I can't wait for Shades of Earth!
Right?! Grace and Sam are freaking perfect! Gah! I love everything Maggie Stiefvater does, including making perfect couples. And yes, SHADES OF EARTH!!!! Can't wait!

When: Saturday, Sept. 29, 5:30 p.m.
Read the Aspen Times recent feature story on '3 Days 2 Nights' here.
A standing ovation greeted Mark and Andy Godfrey as they took the stage of the Wheeler Opera House on Wednesday night, after a sold-out Aspen Filmfest screening of the documentary "3 Days 2 Nights" about the brothers confronting the long-festering trauma of a 1974 plane crash that killed their parents and two siblings.
The film was directed by the Godfreys' lifelong friend John Breen, who joined them for the post-screening talk moderated by Aspen Film Executive Director Susan Wrubel.
At ages 11 and 8, Mark and Andy Godfrey survived a horrific crash on their way to an Aspen ski vacation from Houston. The pair stayed alive in the wreckage for three snow-bound days on a mountainside outside of Glenwood Springs before an unlikely rescue. For nearly four decades that followed, they rarely discussed the tragedy privately or publicly.
Andy broke his silence in a 2012 essay for the Aspen Times Weekly. He and Mark both open up and attempt to mend their frayed relationship in the film, which was five years in the making.
The brothers hope the film can inspire others to open up and heal.
"3 Days 2 Nights" is still a work in progress, but Breen wanted to bring it to Filmfest and make this hometown audience — which included longtime friends and classmates and family, including their sister Paula — the first to share it with Andy and Mark. It also will screen Saturday in Carbondale.
"They had their three kids, and the three of us came in, and all of a sudden it was a family of six kids and total chaos," he said.
One touching section of the film depicts the folk singer John Denver's visits to Mark and Andy in the hospital, singing songs with the boys as they were treated for their injuries. Asked about the Denver visits by an audience member Wednesday, Andy said that the Denver estate had been unaware of his relationship with the boys.
Denver's death in an aviation accident remains a haunting fact for the brothers.
The film mixes footage of the Godfrey brothers today with idyllic home movies of the family before the crash. Emotionally raw and intensely personal, it brings the Godfreys back to the site of the crash — where plane debris remains — and to their childhood home in Houston. It reunites them with the boy who witnessed the crash from Sunlight Mountain and alerted authorities, along with the rescue pilot who plucked them from the wreckage. It also challenges the brothers to confront the pain and loss they'd largely hidden for four decades.
The filmmaking experience, they said, was transformative.

Constantinople Sees No Threat of Schism due to Ukrainian Autocephaly

Russian Orthodox Church Holy Synod Statement on the Communique Published by the Patriarchate of Constantinople
Ecumenical Patriarchate Appoints its Exarchs in Kiev
The Patriarchate of Constantinople sees no threat of a schism in the case of granting autocephaly to Ukraine, as Churches now live "in an era of communication and information, and any problems can be discussed in detail," His Eminence Metropolitan Emmanuel of Gaul said in a recent interview with the Greek newspaper Ethnos, reports RIA-Novosti.
His statement comes, however, after the Russian Church has already announced that it would break communion with the Ecumenical Patriarchate if it grants autocephaly.
As the newspaper notes, Met. Emmanuel is considered one of His All-Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew's closest and most trusted collaborators. He attended the August 31st meeting between Pat. Bartholomew and His Holiness Patriarch Kirill, though he declined to divulge the content of their meeting.
"With the April 2nd decision of the Holy Synod of the Ecumenical Patriarchate, the intention of the Mother-Constantinopolitan Church to accept the request of the Ukrainian people for autocephaly became known. From that moment began the process of informing the other autocephalous Orthodox Churches, and also of the differing position of the Moscow Patriarchate in relation to the proclamation of Ukrainian autocephaly," Met. Emmanuel stated.
The Ecumenical Patriarchate initially announced in late April that it had "decided to closely communicate and coordinate with its sister Orthodox Churches concerning this matter." However, as those sister Churches soon found, the purpose of the visits of the Constantinople representatives was not to dialogue and coordinate, but rather to inform that Constantinople would be granting autocephaly, even without the support of a single Local Church. Nevertheless, the same Met. Emmanuel told Russian Church officials in May that Constantinople would not be granting autocephaly.
Although the Ecumenical Patriarchate is now claiming that Ukraine is within its canonical jurisdiction, it recently appointed two new exarch bishops of Kiev, setting up another ecclesiastical structure there. The Russian and canonical Ukrainian Churches have protested this move, with the Russian Church announcing that it would break communion with the Ecumenical Patriarchate if it grants autocephaly to the Ukrainian schismatics.
Asked whether the decision to grant autocephaly would affect Constantinople's relations with the largest Orthodox Church in the world, Met. Emmanuel said that the Phanar does not act on the basis of its own interests or political pressure.
"All problems will be solved, and we will never reach such radical divisions and isolation," Met. Emmanuel added, apparently without regard to the Russian Church's own statement.
The metropolitan did not stipulate when the tomos of autocephaly would finally be given, but affirmed that "the Patriarchate of Constantinople does not intend to postpone the solution of the Ukrainian problem, and … this is a priority."
