Ciprofloxacin and warfarin interaction - The American Journal.
Ciprofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone (flor-o-KWIN-o-lone) antibiotic that fights bacteria in the body. It is used to treat different types of bacterial infections, including skin infections, bone and joint infections, respiratory or sinus infections, urinary tract infections, and certain types of diarrhea. Ciprofloxacin is also used to treat people who have been exposed to anthrax or certain types of plague. Ciprofloxacin should be used only for infections that cannot be treated with a safer antibiotic. Fluoroquinolone antibiotics can cause serious or disabling side effects that may not be reversible, such as tendon rupture or nerve problems. Ciprofloxacin can cause serious side effects, including tendon problems, nerve damage, serious mood or behavior changes, or low blood sugar. Stop using this medicine and call your doctor at once if you have symptoms such as: headache, hunger, irritability, numbness, tingling, burning pain, confusion, agitation, paranoia, problems with memory or concentration, thoughts of suicide, or sudden pain or movement problems in any of your joints. In rare cases, ciprofloxacin may cause damage to your aorta, which could lead to dangerous bleeding or death. Quinolone antibiotics (including ciprofloxacin) may cause serious and possibly permanent tendon damage (such as tendonitis, tendon rupture), nerve problems in the arms and legs (peripheral neuropathy), and nervous system problems. Get medical help right away if you have any of the following symptoms: pain/numbness/burning/tingling/weakness in your arms/hands/legs/feet, changes in how you sense touch/pain/temperature/vibration/body position, severe/lasting headache, vision changes, shaking (tremors), seizures, mental/mood changes (such as agitation, anxiety, confusion, hallucinations, depression, rare thoughts of suicide). Tendon damage may occur during or after treatment with this medication. Stop exercising, rest, and get medical help right away if you develop joint/muscle/tendon pain or swelling. Your risk for tendon problems is greater if you are over 60 years of age, if you are taking corticosteroids (such as prednisone), or if you have a kidney, heart, or lung transplant. This medication may make a certain muscle condition (myasthenia gravis) worse. Tell your doctor right away if you have new or worsening muscle weakness (such as drooping eyelids, unsteady walk) or trouble breathing.

Finance and Marketing for/by Gen Z
by Suzanne Skees | Oct 23, 2020 | MY JOB Gen Z
Highlights from Chapter 3 in our forthcoming book.
Meet Gen Zers who've developed bitcoin and rallied funds to finance youth-led companies, and amplified the value of Gen Z businesses out to the world through peer marketing.
Aaron Easaw
ACE Venture Capital
Dallas/Ft. Worth, Texas, U.S.
ACE Venture Capital is a VC firm created by Aaron Easaw, dedicated to investing and supporting entrepreneurs under 30. ACE combines investments with relationship as a way to do due diligence and track progress of each startup.
Aaron believes that "age doesn't define your ability." He has developed several other corporations, including the multi-investor INC.UBATOR venture capital firm, which helps young businesses grow and gain the traction required to be successful.
His motto: "Don't dwell on the past. Learn from your mistakes and move on." He speaks about his work here on "20 Under 20," a podcast geared toward Gen Zers.
Erik Finman
Bitcoin Investor
When Erik Finman was 12 years old, he received $1,000 from his grandfather as a gift. Instead of buying video games and candy, he invested in Bitcoin, and held onto it.
He was not the best student at school. He hated school and wanted to drop out. Then, Erik struck a deal with his parents to be able to skip college in pursuit of an unorthodox education, provided he could invest successfully and turn that $1,000 into $1 million by age 18.
He focused closely on cryptocurrency trading and made his first $100,000 selling bitcoin when he was only 14.
His Instagram feed features ostentatious photos of himself stepping out of private jets or lying on beds covered in money with captions like: "Cash so worthless compared to Bitcoin I'm sleeping on it …" says The Guardian.
"Initial Coin Offerings" for Bitcoin/Ethereum
Vitalik Buterin was born in Russia, and his parents moved to Canada when he was 6 years old. Right away, one could see that Vitalik was a mathematical genius. He took classes for gifted children and later went to a private high school in Toronto.
He was interested in blockchain technology and was trying to figure out ways to improve it. He won $100,000 from the Thiel Fellowship after entering college and began to write articles for Bitcoin Magazine on the side.
Receiving pay in the form of Bitcoin, which would not retain real significant value for another few years, Vitalik sought out ways he could improve the system.
In 2013, he created the "Ethereum white paper." This platform made it easy for new companies to create "ICOs" or "Initial Coin Offerings" for their own businesses, and millions of people around the world started to buy his cryptocurrency.
Since the value of Bitcoin and Ethereum fluctuate so quickly, it's hard to pinpoint Vitalik's true net worth. At this point, he is valued at least $500 million.
Farrhad Acidwalla
Rockstah Media
At 13, Farrhad Acidwalla borrowed $20 from his parents to create an online community based around aviation and plane models.
He quickly sold that platform and used the funds to create marketing agency Rockstah Media, an online business platform focused on web development and marketing.
By the time he was 17, Rockstah Media had become an internationally successful, award winning agency and Farrhad was recognized TedX speaker and the founder of multiple other businesses.
Now 25, Farrhad is a multimillionaire and investor and hopes to make technology more accessible to the youth populations of India.
Jesse Kay
20 Under 20s podcast
Upper Saddle River, New Jersey, U.S.
In his junior year of high school, Jesse Kay created a podcast called 20 Under 20, in which he interviews successful entrepreneurs asking about practical tips they have for youth who are trying to get started in their endeavors.
Jesse firmly believes that Gen Z has the capacity to be just as, if not more, entrepreneurial than any of the previous generations.
As he describes, growing up in a post-9/11 world and having experienced the [pandemic and] recession at an early age, Gen Z has learned firsthand that nothing is given in life.
Read more about his mission in Thrive Global.

With a career that begins behind the decks in storied Berlin clubs like Bunker, Tresor and E-Werk, Ellen Allien has been at the very heart of the city's club scene since its early days – first as a DJ and producer, then label boss. Her revered imprint BPitch Control was, throughout the aughts, something of a guiding force and bellwether for techno and electro. Now, her residency at Griessmuehle sees her host Berlin party We are Not Alone, and expanding from the dancefloor, she flexes her curation skills with Vinylism – a series of in-store events hosting line-ups at record shops across the globe.
Proving that the secret of longevity is creative renewal, Allien recently launch UFO Inc., a new label that sharpens its focus on the rawer end of contemporary techno with forthcoming releases tapped from Alien Rain and Regal.
Ellen Allien's Crack Mix embodies UFO Inc.'s ethos: an almost two-hour adrenaline rush through muscular rave and bunker techno, all delivered with zero capitulations to genteel home listening. Allien has never been one to shy away from the psychedelic corners of 4/4, and there's plenty of knotty textures, throwback acid riffs and distorted kicks to keep to keep you on your toes. It is, in the words of Allien, a "home rave session, bringing the club to my house" – you know what to do: play loud.

Spain is creating a registry of people who refuse to get a COVID-19 vaccination and will share this with other European Union member states, the country's Health Minister Salvador Illa told broadcaster La Sexta Monday.
The big picture: Spain become on Monday the fourth European nation to surpass 50,000 deaths from the coronavirus, after the United Kingdom, Italy and France, per Johns Hopkins. It's confirmed nearly 1.9 million cases. Illa said vaccinations are free and not mandatory. Data on those who refuse inoculation won't be publicly disclosed "and it will be done with the utmost respect for data protection," he added.

The public health presidency
Joe Biden will take office today facing a challenge none of his modern predecessors have had to reckon with — his legacy will depend largely on how well he handles a once-in-a-century pandemic that's already raging out of control.
The big picture: Public health tends to be relatively apolitical and non-controversial. The limelight in health care politics typically belongs instead to debates over costs and coverage. But that will all change for the Biden administration.

NBA could vaccinate players as public service announcement
The NBA has discussed having players receive COVID-19 vaccines to educate the public about their safety and effectiveness, commissioner Adam Silver said Tuesday.
Why it matters: The coronavirus has disproportionately struck Black communities, who have developed resistance towards vaccinations — and a general distrust of medical institutions — for understandable historic reasons.

After getting roasted in Episode 083 with Jason Phelps, I felt that it was only right that we give Nick Schmit a chance to defend himself. In this episode Nick and I talk about chasing Bench Legs and Bulls with a muzzleloader in the state of Washington. Washington has some amazing untold gems when it comes to muzzleloader seasons and hunting in the peak of the rut. Nick was able to take a tremendous bull a couple years ago with his muzzleloader after bugling him and his cows in to 40 yards.
We also Chat about what a "bench leg" is and what the best hunts in Washington are to kill a good one. For the record a bench leg refers to a blacktail deer that lives in the Cascade regions of Oregon and Washington that is crossed or partially crossed with mule deer genetics.

After stopping at Peterborough and Terowie we finally arrived at the town of Burra for our overnight stop on our tour of South Australia with friends. We wanted to stop here because on our last tour by bus through here we only stopped for 30 mins and we were disappointed as it is a very historical town and still alive with about 1,200 residents.
Burra became famous when shepherd Thomas Pickett found copper in 1845. By 1850 Burra had one of the worlds biggest copper mines and saved South Australia from bankruptcy. The mine closed in 1877 but was reopened in 1971 to 1981.
Burra is now a State Heritage Area and boasts a big collection of buildings from the 1850's which have not been radically changed.
Most country towns have an old rotunda.
It so happens that I have an old friend living in Burra. Val and I used to room together when we attended teacher's college (ASOPA) in Sydney. She is also a friend of my avid reader, Colin. They taught in the same village in New Guinea. She owns and lives in this very old hotel called "The Smelters Home" built in 1849. It has 17 bedrooms and was used by travelling sales men to display their wares to retailers.
It is the oldest hotel in Australia with the original floor plan. It is like stepping back into the mid 19th century when you enter this building. Unfortunately, Val is not well enough to continue refurbishments.
We visited the old Burra Burra Copper mine, which started as an underground mine in 1845 but in 1870 it became one of the first open cut mines in Australia. It is full of water now and musical concerts are held by the side of the lake.
Besides tourism, Burra is a farming and grazing centre. The surrounding country was cleared of trees to feed the huge smelter during the mining era.
The rapid development of the mine in 1847 led to a housing shortage for mining families. So the miners excavated dugouts in the steep banks of the creek. They stretched for 3 miles along the creek, housing 1800 people. One third of them children. Due to poor sanitation, disease and floods, they were forced to move into company supplied housing in 1870. There are only a few dugouts left today.
Ouch! They had low roofs. Even though we paid for a key at the visitor centre, it only allowed us into the property but would not let us go deep into the dugouts as George discovered here.
Ann checks out an upmarket dugout.
It was reported that some had one room and others more. Some had carpets inside and whitewash outside. They had chimneys coming out of the top of the creek bank and some had a porch. They were cool in summer and well protected in winter.
There were many more interesting places to visit but our day was coming to an end and we were heading off to Hahndorf for our next sleep.
We left Peterborough and continued south to Burra on our South Australia trip with 4 friends. On the way we detoured and called into the ghost town of Terowie. On our last tour here on a bus we stopped at the historic station( see my old post) but we didn't go into town to see the old buildings nor did we stop at the paddock of sculptures. This time we were driving ourselves and so could stop for a nosey around.
Just before the old town there is a paddock full of metal sculptures. I wasn't overly impressed except for the long line of old bicycles attached to the fence.
The buildings are historically significant as they haven't been altered since the 1880's. The town was established in 1875 and became an important rail junction town. The wide gauge changed to narrow gauge here so all trains had to stop. There were big rail yards here. In 1969 the rail gauge was made uniform and so trains didn't stop and the town declined. In 1980 the rail line was moved to the west and and the town died.
After years of drought the farmers gave up their farms and moved as well. Now there are about 100 people left.
It is sad to see these buildings not being used, I wonder what will happen to them.
I laughed at the typical Aussie farewell as we headed out of town towards the main road.
The weather was threatening but it passed over. The next two photos will no doubt annoy my country bred friend Colin as he, like all farmers, hate this purple weed, called Paterson's Curse. Can you see it stretching across the base of the hills? I think it is poisonous for cattle but I'm sure Colin will tell us all about it in my comments.
However, I think it makes beautiful scenery and photos.
This is what the farmers prefer to see. Typical Aussie farmland with grain and sheep but no Paterson's Curse.

The people of Peterborough erected a statue of "Bob The Railway Dog" in memory of this adventurous little dog believed to be a German Collie Dog mix. His story is below taken from Wikipedia.
Bob first experienced the railway life, when, as a young dog, he took a fancy to the railway workers building near Strathalbyn and followed some of the navvies to the line. He was brought back to his owner, the publican of the Macclesfield Hotel, two or three times before finally disappearing; he was about 9 months old at the time.
Bob was, it was believed, picked up as a stray in Adelaide. His true railway career appears to commence not long after he was being consigned from Adelaide along with fifty other dogs to Quorn, to be used to exterminate rabbits. He "broke pack"and was obtained as a stray from the Police in Port Augusta by William Seth Ferry, then working as a Special Guard at Petersburg as Peterborough was then known. Ferry "registered him right away" and is recorded as noting he acquired Bob on 24 September 1884.
Bob was known to travel on trains to and from Petersburg often sitting in the front of the coal space in the locomotive tender, travelling many thousands of miles. According to the Petersburg Times: " His favourite place on a Yankee engine; the big whistle and belching smokestack seem(ed) to have an irresistible attraction for him....he lived on the fat of the land , and was not particular from whom he accepted his dinner"
Every time he heard the train whistle he would run and jump onto the footplate of the engine. Some say he died in Adelaide others say Peterborough. He was 17 years old. His body was displayed in a local pub.
His collar is on display in the National Railway Museum, Port Adelaide, along with photographs and other artifacts. Bob is remembered today by railway workers and historians alike.

Peterborough was settled in 1875. It was called Petersburg but the name changed during WW1 due to anti german sentiment, as were many towns in S.A. They had german names because of the big german migrant population there.
Peterborough is situated in wheat country and has a population of 1,700. It has an interesting rail history. It used to be on the intersection of the east west and north south rail lines. Both lines were narrow gauge (3'6") until 1970 when the east west line changed to standard gauge (4'8½") and the line south to Terowie was converted to broad gauge (5'3"). (One wonders why this happened) However, it made Peterborough become a triple gauge junction there were three in the country at that time. This meant an awful lot of changing trains when travelling across the country. It also meant that triple gauge turntables had to be built at the junctions. Now most of our railways are standard gauge. When the conversions took place lines were also moved and Peterborough was no longer a junction but the east west line, (the Indian Pacific train) still passes through Peterborough.
On the map you can see Adelaide at the bottom and Port Augusta at the top left. You can see the Pich Richi railway to Quorn.(past post) Peterborough is on the right. The red line is the north, south railway with the "Ghan"train going from Adelaide to Darwin. The blue line is the east/west line with the"Indian Pacific" train going from Sydney to Perth.
We took a guided tour of the museum. The triple gauge turntable is still in working order. The roundhouse where locomotives were serviced now houses many different heritage engines and carriages.
It was well set out museum with easy access to all the engines and carriages.
Bill and the boys were having fun.
They had a variety of carriages this one was the travelling nurse's carriage.
This one the club car.
It took over an hour to see everything but for an outback town it was a splendid museum.
The centre also provides work for the unemployed who cannot find jobs but are receiving 'the dole' (social security payments.) After so many weeks on the dole they must do some kind of work to continue receiving the dole. So here they help restore old rolling stock.
We passed an old farmhouse and wagon.
After spending 3 days exploring Port Augusta, we continued on our tour of South Australia a few months ago. Together with 4 friends we drove on towards Peterborough to visit the Steam Train Museum. However, we stopped on the way for coffee at a charming little country town called Orroroo. The coffee shop was gorgeous with lovely crafts and gifts too.Before we arrived there we stopped at the biggest gum (Eucalyptus) tree.
As we entered the town we were greeted by this great sculpture made from metal strips and their heads nodded in the breeze as if they were really pulling the plough.
The little houses in Orroroo were so cute.
As usual I can't finish a post without a wildflower from the area.

Toshiba unveils new Satellite Pro laptops
By Adam Hartley 2008-04-22T13:22:04.112Z
Targets small business users
Toshiba releases a new range of Satellite Pro lappies
Toshiba has announced five new models in its Satellite Pro laptop range today, targeting small business users with the line-up that starts from a reasonable price point of $699 (£350).
Tosh's new affordable line of lappies range from a 13-inch screen model to a weightier desktop-friendly 17-inch screen.
All five models feature, as standard, 802.11g wireless, integrated webcams, DVD multi-format burners and an ExpressCard slot, with certain models in the range offering both Windows Vista and XP Professional.
Portable beauty
Out of the whole range, it's the Satellite Pro U400 in particular that has caught our eye. It sports a nicely portable 13-inch widescreen and built-in optical drive, Bluetooth 2.1, 802.11g wireless and built-in webcam with microphone – ideal for Skype'ing on the go.
The Satellite Pro U400 is still very competitively priced at $1,049 (£525) and also comes with a fingerprint reader and a 3D accelerometer which minimises damage if the computer is dropped.
Tosh is clearly keen to please both security-aware and clumsy, butter-fingered users. TechRadar contacted Toshiba UK to find out more about when the new Satellite Pro range would be made available over here, but no news on that front, as yet.

150 firefighters show support for 11-year-old boy, family by shaving heads

National Curator
Mason Anderson is too young to be a firefighter, but at 11 years old, he is already doing his part to help people by starting a fundraiser called Brave the Shave.It's been a tough couple of years for him, but he said he tried to "turn something negative into a positive."Mason's dad, Tim Anderson, who worked for the fire department at the Sacramento International Airport, passed away from cancer in 2017. Then, the young boy got the news that his mom, Lacey Anderson, had breast cancer."Last year, I was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer. I went through treatment, five months of chemotherapy, double mastectomy," said Lacey Anderson, who is now cancer free after a year of treatment.Last year, Mason shaved his head to support his mom, who had lost her hair during chemo."When I found out that she had to lose her hair and go through all of this -- I didn't want her to have to go through it alone. So I decided I would shave my head with her," Mason said.He got 150 firefighters to do the same.This year, Mason had the idea to continue Brave the Shave by making it a fundraiser for firefighters affected by cancer. The money raised will help Sacramento-area firefighters and their families who have cancer."This year, it is not about me. This year, it's about firefighters and cancer and how we can help them be more aware of the risks of that they are facing," said Lacey Anderson.Firefighter Robert Anthony was best friends with Mason's dad. On Sunday, he shaved his head and said he was amazed by Mason's determination to help others during his time of grief."Us as firefighters, most of the time we are the ones that are out there trying to fix somebody's bad day and make it better. And here is an 11-year-old boy doing that for us firefighters. It's a huge step for him. I'm very proud of him," Anthony said.Mason said he can feel his dad smiling down on him for his effort to help others fight and prevent cancer."A lot of people can come into this and focus on the challenges and the obstacles. Instead of that, Mason is able to see how we can make something fun," Anderson said.It's not just local firefighters shaving their heads. For Mason's charity, firefighters in Boston, Texas and Oregon have all agreed to do the same.

This is a glimpse of who I am and one of my greatest passions.
I am married to an amazing man, we have four incredible children, and we live in a beautiful community in the heart of downtown Phoenix. We love traveling the world, playing together, and relaxing in the cool mountain air up north.
In 2015, after a dozen years of being a full-time stay-at-home mama, our youngest started kindergarten. I asked myself, "What do I want to give myself to?" I loved pregnancy, labor and delivery for myself, and therefore, I decided to become a doula and walk alongside and serve women on their birth journey…and so it began. Just less than a year later in February of 2016, I completed my birth doula certification with DONA International. And I LOVE it!
The whole process of birth is a true miracle, and the fact that I get the honor of witnessing these miracles on a regular basis is a gift from God. I continue to be honored and humbled when I am invited into the intimate setting called birth. I look forward to getting to meet you and going on this journey with you and your new little one.

Primer Dugout (and link of the day) 4-25-2019
Pittsburgh Press, April 25, 1919:
Tincup Signs With Two Teams
Pitcher Ben Tincup, formerly with the Philadelphia Nationals, reported to the Louisville American association club yesterday. Tincup was a free agent and accepted terms of both the Louisville and Little Rock clubs. For this reason he cannot play until his case is acted on by the National commission.
I'm not an expert in contract law, but I think it's generally frowned upon to sign contracts to play for two teams at the same time.
Little Rock had plenty of motivation to make sure they got Tincup - he threw a perfect game for them in 1917 - but he wound up with Louisville and spent the next dozen years with the Colonels.
(Hat tip to Paul Proia for his excellent biography of Tincup.)

Trevor Rosenthal pitched one inning of mop-up relief for the Nats yesterday, allowing three earned runs. His ERA went down.
Rosenthal apparently doesn't have any options left, so sending him to the minors would require a DFA/outright. He'd almost have to clear waivers, right? Who could possibly be interested in paying him the rest of his $8M this season? And if someone did, would the Nats be upset about that?
Obviously I don't know the guy and can't speak to his mental state, but it can't be healthy for him to try to battle the yips with tens of thousands of people staring at him. This feels like something that might require the sort of thing the Jays did with a young Roy Halladay: Send him to the low minors and let him work it out with the understanding that he's a valued member of the organization and will be back as soon as it's appropriate.
4. What did Billy Ripken have against ElRoy Face? Posted: April 25, 2019 at 11:48 AM (#5835246)
You're really gonna go with that as Kaz Tadano's "fact of note," or is that some sort of metaphor I haven't heard?
5. salvomania Posted: April 25, 2019 at 11:53 AM (#5835248)
Rosenthal has faced *21 batters* in 2.0 innings. That is almost unbelievable, except for that it has happened.
He's allowed 15 baserunners (5 hits, 8 walks, 2 hbp) out of those 21, and thrown in two wild pitches to boot.
Those numbers are from before yesterday's game. He did manage to get three Rockies out, but he also gave up two hits and a walk, hit a guy with a pitch, and threw three wild pitches.
So now he's up to 28 batters faced (in three innings), with these results: nine walks, nine batters retired, seven hits, three hit by pitch. On the bright side, the seven hits have all been singles.
7. snapper (history's 42nd greatest monster) Posted: April 25, 2019 at 12:11 PM (#5835260)
What a weird career. 34 WAR and 23 WAA in 5 seasons between age 27-31, and nothing else.
Apparently invented scuffing the ball with an emery board. The banning of that pitch, and arm trouble, ended his career early.
But it's not full-blown Blass/Ankiel, right? Have we seen pitchers before with a milder version of the yips, where they're putting up lines like this but not throwing the ball to the backstop on a regular basis? I forget, did Wohlers go full-blown yips?
It stands to reason that the yips must exist on a spectrum. We are probably seeing very mild cases of the yips all the time.
10. Der-K: at 10% emotional investment Posted: April 25, 2019 at 12:30 PM (#5835268)
4: I see what you did there.
I'm not so sure, which is why I asked (he says, stating the obvious). It seems on first impression like most of the data would indicate that the yips is more binary - "had it, then lost it." If it's something that "breaks" in a player's psyche, you could argue that it probably wouldn't exist on a spectrum. Curious to hear what other people think and/or other examples.
12. Jefferson Manship (Dan Lee) Posted: April 25, 2019 at 12:53 PM (#5835280)
Yeah, I know what you're saying, but I didn't want to shame the guy for needing money as a young man and/or doing stuff like that in his private life.
But an eephus is a celebration of everything cool about baseball.
In baseball people like to pretend that nobody is ever affected by pressure except for the rare and famous cases, but I believe that in golf everyone acknowledges that the yips happen from time to time, and to lesser and greater extents, and that they come and go.
I forget, did Wohlers go full-blown yips?
I seemed to recall his yips being catastrophically bad, and an excerpt from this article confirms that:
But earlier this year, Wohlers suddenly lost his ability to throw strikes -- a shortcoming akin to a writer unable to use verbs -- and as the summer has gone on and he has twice been demoted to the minor leagues, his control has only become increasingly erratic, his appearances sprinkled with pitches that bounce in front of the plate or soar to the backstop.
He went on the disabled list with "inability to pitch", which is an extremely accurate description, but may not appear in the ICD-10 for medical coders.
On the other hand, there are medical codes for "burn due to water skis on fire", "sucked into jet engine, follow-up visit", "spacecraft collision injuring occupant", and "bizarre personal appearance". So it's entirely possible that inability to pitch is a recognized medical condition.
On the other hand, there are medical codes for "burn due to water skis on fire", "sucked into jet engine, follow-up visit", "spacecraft collision injuring occupant", and "bizarre personal appearance".
And that's just from Keith Richards' file.

Dock Ellis and then Bob Johnson started the first two games of the 1971 World Series for the Pirates. The Orioles knocked them around, running their winning streak to 16 games. Danny Murtaugh moved on to four new starting pitchers in Games 3-6 before coming back with Blass in Game 7. (Blass mentioned twice in this thread, and it's not his birthday). Ellis didn't pitch again in the Series, Johnson threw 1.2 innings in Game 6.
17. KJOK Posted: April 25, 2019 at 01:25 PM (#5835294)
Yes, Wohlers. Also Don Carman of 1989 Phillies was able to at least come back for 1 more year of pitching, even if it wasn't good pitching.
He'd almost have to clear waivers, right? Who could possibly be interested in paying him the rest of his $8M this season? And if someone did, would the Nats be upset about that?
Even if the Rosenthal comeback had worked out well, the best outcome wasn't going to be anything more than a 12th man on the staff. Seem weird to not just cut and replace him at this point.
four new starting pitchers in Games 3-6
I'm going to guess... Bruce Kison.. and then the only other Pirate pitcher I can think of from '71 is Dave Giusti, who was the bullpen ace...
My lack of recall could be a troubling sign of early-onset dementia.
EDIT: D'oh, of course, Blass, who was mentioned for Game 7. But still, two more starters...
20. snapper (history's 42nd greatest monster) Posted: April 25, 2019 at 02:31 PM (#5835327)
John Candelaria?
But still, two more starters...
OK, I didn't have the patience to think of who they might be, so I looked it up, and one of the guys I can't believe I missed: he was the only active player from my childhood with whom I shared a birthday, and he was a former Cardinal who also was the former owner of my best friend's house in University City.
No, Candelaria was later than '71. Maybe Bob Moose?
23. Crispix Attacksel Rios Posted: April 25, 2019 at 02:34 PM (#5835330)
I think Bob Veale was still around then.
Gotta be Bob something.
The final starter was the second active player who I remember dying (the first was Clemente).
That would be Bob Moose. RIP.
Amazing archive of Bob Moose pics
Veale was still active, not as a starter though. His '71 line was very weird: 6-0, with a 6.99 ERA, and a 3.68 FIP.
Yankees purchase Cameron Maybin from Cleveland.
That is great!
My favorite is the photo of Moose---still in uniform!---exiting Memorial Stadium after Game 7 of the 1971 series, suit in hand, along with Bruce Kison (changed into street clothes), as they're about to jump in a helicopter to rush to Kison's wedding (Moose was best man).
Bob Moose has been described as the best encapsulation of how a typical baseball player looked from the mid-60s to the mid-70s. He got less clean-cut every year.
30. VCar Posted: April 25, 2019 at 03:03 PM (#5835346)
As a young APBA player, my first set was '76 andit was my intro to Bob Moose. He had the weirdest card in the set - a grade D pitcher (which is the worst) but a great hitting card. He had 10 values of "6" on a 36-slot card, which is a sure double and possibly a triple or HR depending on where men were on base. Impervious to even the best pitchers in the league. Back then, we used him as an everyday DH. Just looked at his hitting stats that year: 3-for-12, with 1 single, 1 triple and 1 HR. And of course we had no idea he died right after the season.
Games 3 through 7 went Blass-Luke Walker (who could not hit)-Nellie Briles-Moose-Blass. Kison was the long reliever for Walker, who didn't survive the first inning in Game 4.

It's an off day for the Nationals.
When the Nationals are off, Bote drinks heavily while watching video of past Nationals' bullpen implosions. We think he may have a problem.
The Nationals are calling up top prospect infielder Carter Kieboom (pronounced key-BOOM). Saw quite a bit of him at Nationals Spring Training - he appeared to be a Major League hitter, but the defense was a work in progress, at best.

War of 1812 | Biography
William Winder
TitleBrigadier General
War & AffiliationWar of 1812 / American
Date of Birth - DeathFebruary 18, 1775 - May 24, 1824
Winder was first commissioned into the United States Army as a Colonel with the onset of the War of 1812. He was quickly promoted to Brigadier General before being captured in a nighttime attack at the Battle of Stoney Creek, Ontario in July of 1813. Paroled the following year, Winder returned to field command and was tasked with the defense of Washington and Baltimore by President James Madison in 1814. With the approach of 4,500 British troops on the nation's capital, Winder positioned his troops just northeast of the city in Bladensburg, Maryland. He proved to be a less than effective commander at the Battle of Bladensburg fought on August 24, and his force of 6,500 regulars and militia was sent fleeing in every direction. Thanks to Winder's collapse, the British army entered Washington and burned numerous government buildings, including the Capital and White House. Winder's military career survived a court-martial following Bladensburg, but he is relegated to a subordinate role under General Samuel Smith in the defense of Baltimore.

Exclusive automotive partner of all global League of Legends events.
Mercedes-Benz emphasises "community first" in the announcement of the partnership with Riot Games.
Exclusive automotive partner.
The Stuttgart-based luxury brand is set to become the exclusive automotive partner of all global League of Legends esports events of Riot Games. Bettina Fetzer, Vice President Marketing Mercedes-Benz AG, announced this on 21 September during the 2020 League of Legends World Championship Preview Event. The partnership will focus on the League of Legends community and will feature Mercedes-Benz as the presenting sponsor of the Trophy Ceremony at global events – the pinnacle of sporting success for LoL pro teams.
2020 LoL esports World Championship.
The LoL esports World Championship, or 2020 Worlds for short, will take place in Shanghai from 25 September to 31 October. The first major global sports event in China since the Corona virus pandemic marks not only the tenth anniversary of the Worlds, but also the beginning of the global partnership between Riot Games and Mercedes-Benz. Hints about the partnership were given to the community in advance. Attentive observers had already recognised the Mercedes-Benz GLA and the Mercedes-Benz EQC in the official Worlds anthem video, released on 17 September. It was a hot topic in the community. Mercedes-Benz responded immediately on social media, where Bettina Fetzer, Vice President Marketing Mercedes-Benz AG, sat in an EQC with the Summoner's Cup on the front passenger seat and said in dialogue with MBUX: "Hey Mercedes, guide me to Shanghai!"
"One of the most popular games."
Bettina Fetzer officially announced the partnership on 21 September at the Worlds 2020 Preview Event, hosted by Riot Games from Los Angeles. Mercedes-Benz is now the exclusive automotive partner of the three global events of League of Legends: the Mid-Season Invitational, Worlds, and the All-Star Event. In doing so, the automotive brand bearing the three-pointed star is elevating the existing sponsorship of the Chinese League of Legends, the so-called LPL, to a global level.
"We decided to partner with Riot Games because we strongly believe in esports", says Bettina Fetzer, Vice President Marketing Mercedes-Benz AG: "League of Legends is one of the most popular games in recent years. By partnering with Riot Games at the global level, we want to participate even more actively than before in shaping the future of esports and inspire fans about our brand in a playful dialogue."
"Icons of a new generation."
Mercedes-Benz begins the partnership with the motto "Icons of a new generation" and in doing so looks back on ten years of League of Legends esports World Championships. Mercedes-Benz stresses the notion of community first at the start of Worlds and during the event issues Mercedes-Benz branded Hextech chests – virtual surprise boxes with coveted in-game items. Furthermore, plans call for using creative and innovative approaches to produce and provide exclusive content for fans during the Worlds. By doing so, Mercedes-Benz intends to interact with millions of connected fans around the globe and to actively participate in shaping Worlds through constant engagement.
"As the first luxury automotive brand to embrace esports on a global scale, Mercedes-Benz has developed a deep understanding of the unrelenting passion fueling the game and the League of Legends esports community," said Naz Aletaha, Head of Global esports Partnerships, Riot Games. "Mercedes-Benz has been synonymous with excellence for nearly a century, and we are excited to combine our shared appetite for innovation to bring great sporting moments to the global League of Legends stage."
The most popular League of Legends characters.
In addition, the TV spot that impressively fuses the world of LoL esports with the real world celebrated its world premiere at the media event. In the spot, the viewer meets both famous esports heroines and heroes as well as a number of the most popular League of Legends characters. Only the interaction of all the players makes the line-up an unbeatable team and therewith "Icons of a new generation".
The commitment to esports and the creation of added value is also made tangible by a host of other measures. Mercedes-Benz will from now on present the trophy ceremonies at all three global events, bring a new broadcast segment in the most important global event streams to the homes of fans and pay lasting tribute to esports in general and the League of Legends community in particular with additional integrations and creative communication activities.

Poels wins sixth stage Tour of Britain, Dumoulin third
Wout Poels has Friday the sixth stage in the Tour of Britain won. He continued to Rohan Dennis (second) and fellow countryman Tom Dumoulin (third).
In the final phase of the hilly ride to Haytor jump Poels away from a breakaway group of four, which also includes Dennis and Dumoulin were. The Dutchman of Team Sky came solo across the finish line. Dylan van Baarle was fourth.
On the final climb was Dennis who first went on the attack. He got next to Poels and Dumoulin also the Spaniard Gorka Izagirre. The final demarrage of Poels showed his companions are too powerful.
Stephen Cummings of Dimension Data came on the twenty count as eighth on the measure is the new leader in Britain. He rode the Belgian Julien Vermote (Etixx-Quick Step) out of the leader's jersey. Dumoulin is now in second place at 49 seconds.
It is the second time that a Dutchman to win a stage in Great Britain. Earlier it was Dylan Groenewegen of the Lotto-Jumbo the strongest in the fourth stage.
Poels won last year a stage of the British race. When he came first across the finish line in the fifth stage.
This year, he was already successful with victories in liège-Bastogne-Liège and the fifth stage in the Tour of Catalonia. He wrote also two stages and the overall victory in the Tour of Valencia to his name.

Notre Dame philosopher Vittorio Hösle appointed to Vatican academy by Pope Francis
Vittorio G. Hösle
Vittorio G. Hösle, Paul Kimball Professor of Arts and Letters at the University of Notre Dame, has been appointed to the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences by Pope Francis.
"We were very gratified to learn of Professor Hösle's appointment to this truly distinguished body," said Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C., Notre Dame's president. "On behalf of the University, I congratulate Professor Hösle for this well-deserved and important recognition, and thank him for helping Notre Dame fulfill its mission of serving the Church through scholarship."
A member of the Notre Dame faculty since 1999, Hösle, who teaches German literature, philosophy and political science, was the founding director of the University's Institute for Advanced Study. Before coming to Notre Dame, he was a professor at the New School for Social Research in New York and had served on the faculties of the University of Essen and the Hanover Institute for Philosophical Research in Germany. The numerous books he has published have been translated into 20 languages and include "Darwinism and Philosophy," "The Philosophy of the Ecological Crisis," "Introduction to Giambattista Vico," "Truth and History" and "The Dead Philosophers' Café."
Established by Pope John Paul II in 1994, the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences promotes such social sciences as economics, sociology, law and political science, and makes studies in them available to the Church for the development of social doctrine.

Two postdoctoral fellow positions and a bioinformatician position are available in Dr. Morey's lab at Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. The Morey lab focuses on the epigenetic mechanisms that control cancer initiation and progression, and stem cell differentiation.
Previous work in our lab have shown that the architecture of Polycomb-group (PcG) complexes is instrumental in regulating stem cell fate decisions (Morey et al. Cell Stem Cell, 2012; Morey et al. Cell Reports, 2013; Morey et al. Cell Stem Cell, 2015). Recently, we have discovered that PcG complexes are recruited to active enhancers in multiple cancers, highlighting an under-explored function of PcG complexes in regulating oncogenic transcriptional programs in cancer (Chan et al. Nature Comm, 2018; Chan and Morey, Trends in Biochemical Sciences, in press).
Our research program aims to characterize the PcG-mediated mechanisms in multiple cancer types, including breast cancer (position 1), and in human pluripotent stem cell differentiation (position 2). The projects will employ genetic, biochemical and genomic approaches including 3D chromatin architecture assays (HiC and HiChIP) and CRISPR/Cas9 screens, as well as standard genome-wide assays (ChIP- RNA- ATAC-seq). Experiments will be performed using both cell culture (cancer cells and human embryonic stem cells) and in vivomodels (xenografts and PDX models).
Successful candidates will have earned a Ph.D. in genetics, molecular biology, cellular biology, or related fields and demonstrated the ability to complete research projects independently. Expertise in epigenetics in any model system will greatly strengthen the application. Experience with computational analysis of genomic data is a plus but is not required.
We are seeking for a bioinformatician to work at the interface of chromatin structure, transcriptional regulation and computational biology in cancer and developmental biology. The successful candidate will support the students and postdocs in the wet lab and will drive their own project to develop new methods to analyze genome-wide sequencing data. The candidate demonstrated the ability to complete research projects independently and to work in a collaborative environment. Experience in the wet lab will greatly strengthen the application.
Interested candidates are invited to contact Dr. Lluis Morey (lmorey@med.miami.edu) with CV and names of two references.


We used it 4 or 5 times and it worked great. The only hassle was disconnecting the Clean bag and carrying it inside to pour through a funnel into the tank. So I got rid of the Clean side bag and with a $7 kludge of adapters went from surgical tube to 3/4" garden hose.
Now it just attaches to the City Water inlet and directly into the main tank.
This will be standard equipment on all our future trips.
You DIY types can save about $50 if you just buy the filter and supply your own surgical tubing and intake bucket.
Great idea, and one that I could easily use with my teardrop water tank.
I did a quick search on gravity water filters, and saw that Katadyn has one too, as well as a few others. Did anything in particular make you pick the Platypus?
Did anything in particular make you pick the Platypus?
No. I just got tired of comparing specs and picked a likely looking one. 2 Day free shipping with Amazon Prime helped decide. That unit from REI looks good too. Cheaper and more capacity.
I do like that the Platypus is designed to be back-flushed, where the Katadyn is not designed to be, though it seems that some people do back-flush it.
Brilliant. We like the Platypus and this is a big help. Now, about the pump or suction system to feed from the stream . . . .
Sawyer also makes a nice 4-liter filter that is designed to be back flushed. Same style design.
I just came across a Platypus Bottle Kit which only provide the 'dirty water' bag, the filter, and the tubing, and some bottle adapters, which sounds like all that's really needed, though you now have an extra water bag that can be your spare bag. The Bottle Kit is only based on the 2.0L version though, so a lot more filling would be required.
Those are awesome and I feel like an old man now. I have so many memories of squatting next to a stream and pumping non-stop to fill up my Naglene water bottles with my heavy, ceramic filter.
Yes, the Platypus filter stays cleaner by backflushing. It's supposed to filter up to 1500 gal before replacement. That's probably more use than I'll get out of it in this lifetime.
Just out of curiosity, are you having to squeeze the bag to get the water to feed into the water inlet? Or will it gravity feed into the inlet?

LGBTI+ activists warn of discriminatory measures in response to COVID-19
'Guía Práctica de respuestas inclusivas y con enfoque de #derechoshumanos ante el Covid-19 en las Américas'.
Frente a la pandemia los Estados tienen la oportunidad de responder a ella reconociendo y atacando la profunda desigualdad de nuestras sociedadeshttps://t.co/rStSiUsVE0 pic.twitter.com/MmEHggW9kD

On 24th March 2020, Panama's president Laurentino Cortizo announced the implementation of mandatory quarantine across the country in response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Since then, hundreds of people have been detained for violating lockdown rules.
LGBTI+ activists warned that gender-based emergency measures in Panama could put transgender and non-binary people at risk. A measure published on 31st March 2020 restricted public circulation, establishing different days of the week for men and women to leave their houses. The policy's implementation concerned civil society organisations because of potential discriminatory repercussions for those whose ID gender marker does not accurately reflect their gender identity. A similar measure was quickly overturned in Peru, in part because it led to more gatherings on the days designated for women as they are "typically tasked with more domestic work".
On 1st April 2020, Bárbara Delgado, a transgender activist who is a member of the health committee in the Altos de San Francisco Health Centre, was detained for almost three hours. Delgado was reportedly told by officers that "only real women" were allowed out on Wednesdays. She was released with a fine. Local organisations have put together a google form for incident reporting and have demanded the inclusion of gender and diversity perspectives in the emergency measures taken during the pandemic.

On 28th March 2020, a protest to demand food and aid during the COVID-19 crisis ended in the looting of a local mini-market in Curundú, Panama City. Anti-riot forces intervened and at least four people were detained for vandalism. In the same region, protesters also set trash cans and other objects on fire.
On 22nd April 2020, 42 people were detained in La Chorrera during a protest to demand the payment of a solidarity bonus to support the most vulnerable during the COVID-10 emergency. On 21st and 22nd April 2020, the group of demonstrators blocked a local road, saying that their communities had not received the food and financial aid from the government's "Panama Solidario" programme. The detained protesters will reportedly face charges for violating sanitary measures and for blocking a road.
The Inter-American Press Association (IAPA)'s report on Panama published on 28th March 2020 highlighted restrictive legislation that affects freedom of expression in the country. The country criminalises libel and slander in some cases, with sanctions that include financial reparation and up to 18 months' imprisonment. Litigation involving so-called "crimes against honour" has frequently been used to drain media outlets' resources and intimidate journalists. The report also states that a draft Communications Framework Law establishing control mechanisms for media and journalists remains pending in the Latin American Parliament (Parlatino).

Travelling around North America or Europe can be very different from travelling around more chaotic or remote areas of the world. These trips may take a bit more planning so here are some tips to get you better prepared.
The first thing you should do is check whether you will need a Visa to enter the country or not. Travel.gc.ca is a great resource to check what the requirements are for every country you'll be in, including passport expiration minimums.
Another important use for travel.gc.ca is the security and awareness updates. Read everything there is on your destination to ensure you are up to date on recent activities or potential problems.
Before you head out on your adventure, make sure you have enough local currency. I recommend exchanging your money at your bank, but keep in mind that if you're going to a less popular destination- you may need to order the cash in advance, which will take a few days. Talk to your bank and leave adequate time. Read more currency tips here.
Don't forget to look up local laws and customs, as cultural differences could land you in big trouble. Read more foreign law tips here.
Now, when you actually arrive in destination- you'll notice the difference from travelling around North America right away.
Most notably will be the process of finding a taxi. There will likely be swarms of drivers trying to get your attention, but you want to find the official taxi line. This may take some time- so consider finding an information booth to locate the line and ask the general cost of a taxi to your area. If there are sideshares available, such as Uber or Lyft, consider predownloading those on your phone and locating the pickup zone (if there is one). Read more rideshare tips here.
It can also be a lot more difficult to find clear directions on where you're trying to go, so having a data plan for GPS and quick google searches would make a huge difference. And keep in mind that you can preload a city map or step-by-step directions on google maps, that will then continue to locate and direct you once you leave wifi.
Either contact your phone carrier to set up international roaming- if the price makes sense for you- or consider buying a prepaid SIM card in destination to temporarily use in your phone. If you don't need any data, be sure to turn your data-roaming off or leave your phone on airplane mode to avoid any surprise bills when you get home!
And finally, as tempting as it may be, do not give handouts to begging children. "Organized begging is one of the most visible forms of human trafficking—and it's largely financed and enabled by good-hearted people who just want to help."- Keenan. If you want to help while abroad, look into charity volunteering or building infrastructures (such as school and health clinics).
Travelling somewhere less familiar can sometimes be a bit of a culture shock, but that's the whole point of travel!
