A Quiet Exodus: Why Black Worshipers Are Leaving White Evangelical Churches (Campbell Robertson, NY Times): "As the headlines of the outside world turned to police shootings and protest, little changed inside majority-white churches. Black congregants said that beyond the occasional vague prayer for healing a divided country, or a donation drive for law enforcement, they heard nothing." The dynamic described is real and one I have personally witnessed. All in all a pretty good article although it has a few glaring blind spots, mostly because it focuses almost exclusively on those who chose to leave and doesn't tell the story of those who chose to stay.
And while we're talking about race: "I Hope We Have No Crackers Here": EBF Staff Sanction Racial Slur (Anna Mitchell & Philip Clark, Stanford Review): "You would think that residents of a supposedly progressive and racially conscious house would jump to remove a racial epithet from house property."
This is also relevant to the first article: In Donald Trump, Evangelicals Have Found Their President (David Brody, New York Times): "In fact, evangelicals take the long view on Mr. Trump; they afford him grace when he doesn't deserve it. Few dispute that Mr. Trump may need a little more grace than others. But evangelicals truly do believe that all people are flawed, and yet Christ offers them grace. Shouldn't they do the same for the president?"
This Is How To Pay College Athletes (Patrick Hruby, Deadspin): "Because here's the thing: nobody asks how's it going to work when it comes to, say, paying dentists. Or investment bankers. Or programmers. Or professors. Or for that matter college coaches, athletic directors, and school presidents. There are no master compensation plans for those and hundreds of other lines of work because there's no need for a plan. The very notion of coming up with a complicated, centralized set of rules dictating how much plumbers can earn and under what circumstances they can earn it would be un-American…"
Was the apostle Paul married? Yes, he was. Here's how we know. (Denny Burk, Personal Blog): "It may be that Paul's words have implications for all who are unmarried, but I think Paul's reference to the unmarried refers to widowers specifically. There are a number of reasons for this. Not the least of which is the fact that the Greek word for 'widower' was rarely used in ancient Greek and was never used in the Koine period…. Paul uses the term 'unmarried' two other times in this chapter to refer to those who were previously married." The author is a professor of Biblical studies.
Leaving Blokesworld: Why You Can't Have Your Porn and #MeToo (Meagan Tyler, Australian Broadcasting Company: Religion and Ethics): "In one of the few attempts to link #MeToo and porn culture, two Dutch filmmakers asked men to try and differentiate between women's accounts of sexual assault and scripts from porn films. The comparison highlights the difficultly in discerning any difference…. So, for all the men who have been asking what they can do in light of #MeToo, here's a place start: stop linking your sexual arousal to women's sexual subordination. Stop watching porn."
The Center Left Is On Life Support (Michael Brendan Dougherty, National Review): "As liberals backed away from the hard politics of material redistribution, they found themselves trying to redistribute the honorific resources of society. Instead of dramatically expanding day care, you could talk about single mothers as heroes." The author is on the right and is diagnosing a problem he sees across the aisle. His comments about redistributing honorifics are insightful and remind me of Tyler Cowen's observation that politics is often more about raising or lowering some group's social status than actually solving pressing problems.
What's an Inclusion Rider? Let the Professor Who Helped Invent the Concept Explain (Rebecca Keegan, Vanity Fair): "Smith said that an inclusion rider is a provision added to actors' contracts to ensure that casting on productions is more representative. 'It stipulates that in small and supporting roles, characters should reflect the world we live in,' she said. That includes 50 percent gender parity, 40 percent inclusion for people of color, 5 percent L.G.B.T.Q., and 20 percent disabled." This is a clever maneuver. Unsurprisingly, there does not seem to be a provision for highlighting evangelical Christians according to our proportional representation in society. What if in every sitcom there was a Ned Flanders character?

Opinion: Gender Is A Social Construct, But Only Women Can Have An Opinion On Abortion, But You Can Change Your Gender If You Want, But Oh Wow The Room Is Spinning Please Send Help (Babylon Bee): "You should also know that the idea of 'gender' is just a meaningless series of impositions society has forced upon us, but you can change your gender simply by adhering to these impositions, and oh yep that's it I have to lay down now goodbye."
Man Who Got Famous Showing Scantily Clad Women Bouncing On Trampolines Lectures Nation On Sexual Propriety (Babylon Bee): sometimes the Bee is so on point it is painful.
Every week I'll highlight an older link still worth your consideration. This week we have Making Sense of the Numbers of Genesis [pdf link] (Carol Hill, Perspectives on Science and the Christian Faith): "Joseph and Joshua were each recorded as dying at age 110—a number considered 'perfect' by the Egyptians. In ancient Egyptian doctrine, the phrase 'he died aged 110' was actually an epitaph commemorating a life that had been lived selflessly and had resulted in outstanding social and moral benefit for others. And so for both Joseph and Joshua, who came out of the Egyptian culture, quoting this age was actually a tribute to their character. But, to be described as 'dying at age 110' bore no necessary relationship to the actual time of an individual's life span." You will not agree with everything in this article, but it is full of fascinating insights. (first shared in volume 51)

Things Glen Found Interesting, Volume 82
1 Chronicles 12:32 — they "understood the times"
On Fridays I share articles/resources about broad cultural, societal and theological issues. Be sure to see the explanation and disclaimers at the bottom.
The new year is upon us. Consider reading through the entire Bible in 2017 (doing so will take around 10 minutes a day). Here's a thorough and helpful article from last year about reading the whole Bible. If you want an app to make it easier, take a look at readscripture.org
Varieties of Religious Experience (Ross Douthat, NY Times): "One of my hobbies is collecting what you might call nonconversion stories — stories about secular moderns who have supernatural-seeming experiences without being propelled into any specific religious faith."
Mark Zuckerberg says he's no longer an atheist, believes 'religion is very important' (Julie Zauzmer, Washington Post): Somewhat related to the above. Also, if you happen to bump into him or his wife then please let them know they are welcome at Chi Alpha. 🙂
The Evangelical Scion Who Stopped Believing (Mark Oppenheimer, NY Times): "Atheists and agnostics have long tried to rebottle religion: to get the community and the good works without the supernatural stuff. It has worked about as well as nonalcoholic beer. As with O'Doul's, converts are few, and rarely do they end up having a very good time." Interesting article, although Oppenheimer misreads some background details (in particular, I think he was unfair to Stetzer's comment).
In Praise of Ignorance (Simon Cullen, Quillette): "Those with the audacity to admit that they have nothing intelligent to say about a difficult topic should be praised for refusing to further erode our common epistemic standards, not scorned for failing to toe some party line."
Campus Identity Politics Is Dooming Liberal Causes, a Professor Charges (Evan R. Goldstein, Chronicle of Higher Education): an interview with Columbia's Mark Lilla — "identity politics today isn't about group belonging; it's about personal identity. From the '70s into the '90s, there was a shift in focus from group identity to the self as the intersection of different kinds of identities…. It's extraordinary how much time and thinking [students] devote to exactly what they are as the subtotal of other identities, rather than seeing their time at the university as an opportunity to leave those things behind, or overcome them, or become something that's actually themselves and autonomous in some way." This is sort of a sequel to an article I shared back in volume 77.
Houses of Worship Poised to Serve as Trump-Era Immigrant Sanctuaries (Laurie Goodstein, NY TImes): "Churches, schools and hospitals are considered 'sensitive locations,' according to Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Immigration officers are supposed to avoid those locations, unless they have advance approval from a supervisor or face 'exigent circumstances' that require immediate action, said Jennifer Elzea, an agency spokeswoman."
Here's Who Will Pray at Trump's Inauguration (Kate Shellnut, Christianity Today): it's not obvious from the article, but a surprising number of them are Pentecostal of one sort or another: Wayne Jackson, Paula White, Sammy Rodriguez.
Is VidAngel Legal? (Youtube): a clever defense of an ingenious service. It's not laugh-out-loud funny, but it tickled me. Plus I agree with their stance.

In the time of King David, the tribe of Issachar produced shrewd warriors "who understood the times and knew what Israel should do" (1 Chron 12:32). In a similar way, we need to become wise people whose faith interacts with the world.
To that end, on Fridays I've been sharing articles/resources I have found helpful recently in thinking about broader cultural and societal issues (be sure to see the disclaimer at the bottom). May these give you greater insight, so that you may continue the tradition of Issachar. Past emails are archived athttp://glenandpaula.com/wordpress/category/links
From the big-bang-faith department: Mayim Bialik: Hollywood is not friendly to people of faith (Sasha Bogursky, Fox News): Bialik, a devout Jew, is an actress on the Big Bang Theory and in real life holds a Ph.D. in neuroscience. This interview caused such comment that she posted a follow-up on her blog: Where Faith Meets Science.
From the historical analysis department: Did Religion Make The Civil War Worse? (Allen Guelzo, The Atlantic): the author is a respected professor with a seminary background. I'm not sure what I think of his argument, but I did find it interesting. The article made me think about Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address, which is always worth a re-read.
From the happy news department: Christian Missions and the Spread of Democracy (Greg Scandlen, The Federalist): This is a summary of some rather wonderful research Robert Woodberry published in The American Political Science Review back in 2012: The Missionary Roots of Liberal Democracy. If it looks familiar it's because I allude to it from time to time in my sermons and conversations.
Chi Alpha is not a partisan organization. To paraphrase another minister: we are not about the donkey's agenda and we are not about the elephant's agenda — we are about the Lamb's agenda. Having said that, I read widely (in part because I believe we should aspire to pass the ideological Turing test and in part because I do not believe I can fairly say "I agree" or "I disagree" until I can say "I understand") and may at times share articles that have a strong partisan bias simply because I find the article stimulating. The upshot: you should not assume I agree with everything an author says in an article I mention, much less things the author has said in other articles.

Q: Cross Forest Delegation Is it possible to do delegation in a cross forest scenario with only a one way trust?
I have 2 domains which are in different forests, and there is a one way trust from the resourcedomain to the userdomain. The SPN's are registered properly on the resourcedomain, but when trying to connect with a userdomain to a server in resourcedomain the protocol falls back to NTLM.

A: Which version of windows server you are using? If its Win2000 only NTLM/External is supported to do cross forest authentication. If its win2003 and if you have created Cross-forest trust then you should be able to use kerberos. Incase if its External trust it will only do NTLM.

John Riley, the twenty-eight year-old Irishman who is credited with organizing the San Patricio Battalion during the Mexican War, has been the subject of much speculation in recent years. Much of it has come about because of renewed interest in Ireland as it approaches 2013, the "Year of the Gathering", and new memorials and historic landmarks appear across the country. There have been two such memorials for Riley recently, one a bust in Mexico City, the other a small sculpture in Clifden, Co. Galway.
Riley deserted the United States Army on the eve of its invasion of Mexico in April, 1846, along with a handful of other soldiers, mostly Irish immigrants. During the course of the unpopular Mexican American War, over 5,280 soldiers would defect. Many of them simply went back home or disappeared into the hinterlands; however, several hundred joined Riley and fought on the Mexican side. They formed the Battalion of St. Patrick (Los San Patricios), a crack artillery unit, and were honored by the Mexicans for their bravery in several of the war's major battles.
At the termination of hostilities, forty-eight were hanged for desertion during wartime. Riley and several others, who defected prior to the war and thus escaped death, were whipped and branded with the letter "D" by a cattle iron on the cheek. The soldier who applied the brand on Riley's cheek placed it upside down, and was ordered to brand him correctly on the other cheek. The result was a large ugly welt on each cheek which were highly noticeable and commented upon not only during the time Riley served in hard labor, but even years later after he was discharged and went to on to serve as a Brevet Major in the regular Mexican Army until the end of the war. Indeed he grew his hair long in order to partially conceal the heavy ridges of scar tissue.
The U.S. Army enlistment records from September, 1845 indicate that John Riley was born in Clifden, Co. Galway, and was twenty-eight years old at the time of his enlistment. That would mean he had been born between 1817 and 1818 so would have been 33 years old in 1850.The Juan Riley buried in the churchyard was 45 years old according to the curate. It could not have been the leader of the San Patricios.
Major Riley was a teetotaler and his sobriety, leadership, ambition and example was commented on by several people who knew him. Even those who condemned his desertion were aware of these qualities. A death from drunkenness would have been highly unlikely.
Major Riley had been discharged on August 14th with medals for heroism, with uniforms, with a well-equipped horse and tack, with over $800 in retirement pay (the equivalent of $20,000 today). The death certificate for the indigent "Juan Riley" was dated August 31, just seventeen days later.
No robbery was mentioned in any newspaper in Veracruz during this period, nor were there any police reports of big spenders. In such a small town they would have been noticed. Thus is highly unlikely that the well-known and highly decorated major, a redhead over six feet tall and handsome except for his scars, would have been suddenly impoverished and buried (as "Juan Riley") without last rites in the general cemetery just weeks after his discharge.
The curate who was attentive enough to state the deceased's age ("45 years old"), his origin ("a native of Ireland") and how he died ("as a consequence of drunkenness") could not have failed to notice that he had two large scars on both his cheeks where a hot cattle iron had branded large "D"s on both cheeks, leaving two high ridges of scar tissue. It was his most noticeable feature and is not mentioned.
Mr Hogan, i´m glad to read your articles, i´m from Monterrey where a group of entusiasthic people is looking for the hidden history, you may know what one of the cities in Mexico where apparently has no local history is Monterrey well an effor is now from paticulars a group called La batalla de monterrey, has an achievement,a small but signifiactive monument for John Riley in the santa lucia,where the battle was, we know the San Patricios, and we are proud of them,hope you can find the burial of this hero.
Sorry to be so late in answering this, Francisco. I was locked out from answering because I was not a member of the group until today. Yes, I am aware of all the work the members of la Batalla de Monterrey have done. Very impressive. I have been in touch with Pedro and have visited the FB site on several occasions. Hope I can get up there to pay a visit one of these days. Un saludo muy cordial a todos en Monetrrey.

Iron Man of the '80s: The Silver Centurion
A look back at one of the most unique Iron Man armors ever worn by Tony Stark!
by Blair Marnell
IRON MAN (1968) #200
Since his debut in TALES OF SUSPENSE #39 in 1963, Tony Stark has been consistently tinkering with his Iron Man armor and constantly upgrading it. Stark usually favors the red and gold designs, which have become Iron Man's iconic colors. But in the '80s, Stark created the Iron Man Armor Model #8, or as it's more commonly known, the Silver Centurion armor.
The Silver Centurion was a marked departure for Iron Man, and it was easily the most advanced armor for its time. It has even appeared in Marvel Studios' "Iron Man" and "Iron Man 2," and it's become the signature symbol of ol' Shell-Head's '80s adventures. The Silver Centurion debuted in 1985 at a time when Tony Stark hadn't been wearing the armor since IRON MAN #169 in 1983. Stark had fallen off the wagon of sobriety, and he was no longer able or willing to be Iron Man. In his place, James Rhodes took on the mantle of Iron Man. Rhodes was so entrenched in the role that he even traveled to Battleworld for 1985's SECRET WARS and joined the West Coast Avengers as a founding member. But eventually, it was time for Stark to reclaim what was his in the landmark IRON MAN #200.

That particular issue also heavily influenced the first Iron Man movie by featuring Stark's adversary, Obadiah Stane, wearing his own Iron Monger armor for a final showdown. For two years, Stark stayed away from being Iron Man to preserve his physical and mental well-being. In his mind, he had truly given up on being a Super Hero. It's easy to forget that the Silver Centurion armor was actually created by Stark with Rhodes in mind.
However, Stane's constant attacks left Rhodes injured, Stark's friends kidnapped, and his company shattered. In response, Stark finished the Silver Centurion armor and demanded a confrontation with Stane before he was ready for it. Within issue #200, Iron Man showed off the stealth capabilities of his new armor. Using the Chameleon Effect, Stark was briefly able to make the armor almost invisible to the naked eye. That later turned out to have some negative side effects on his nervous system, but it gave him a definite edge in the early days.
The armor was also designed to absorb any form of energy, including heat. Stark also installed a force field, which was a big power drain and lasted only a few seconds. Between its Pulse Bolts, heat lance, improved flight capability, and the upgraded Repulsors and uni-beam, the Silver Centurion was a breathtaking achievement for Stark. The silver in the design was also quite striking, although those shoulder pads were pure '80s-awesome. Inside that armor, Stark must have truly felt like a new man.
Iron Man's new look lasted almost three years, which is an eternity in comics. It truly had staying power, and it was the armor that Stark wore into one of his biggest stories to date. IRON MAN #225 kicked off the "Armor Wars" arc, where Stark discovered that some of his technology had been stolen and disseminated to the criminal underworld. Stark's own designs were being used by several villains and even a few heroes.
At the time, Stark still had a secret identity. So he was able to play it off as Iron Man's rogue vendetta as opposed to implicating himself. But the Avengers knew the truth, and Stark alienated Steve Rogers (who was then known as the Captain) in IRON MAN #228 when he put his quest for vengeance against all other considerations.
Much to his surprise, Stark met his match in IRON MAN #230. The Firepower armor proved to be even more advanced than the Silver Centurion armor. For the first time in years, Stark was completely outmatched in battle. It was all he could do to make it back to Rhodes in time to get out of the armor and fake his death when the Silver Centurion was destroyed.
Naturally, Stark got brand new armor in IRON MAN #231. That's the nature of the beast – there's always another Iron Man armor around the corner. But for three years, the Silver Centurion armor captured our collective imaginations.

Engaged in prayer. Does that statement describe our prayer life? What do you think it looks like to be engaged in prayer? What does it mean for us to be engaged in prayer?
I was challenged with a new way of looking at prayer engagement in the current Bible Study I'm doing Prayer Warrior by Stormie Omartian.
According to Webster's Dictionary the root word engage "is an offering of one's life or aim as backing to a cause or aim." It further adds the following additional descriptions: "to entangle or entrap; to attract and hold by influence or power; to interlock with; to bind oneself to do something; to hold attention; to enter into battle." I took the time to share the definition because it adds insight to our quest for answers about being engaged in prayer.
Praying as a prayer warrior is to be engaged in prayer. It is a commitment followed by action. The sole purpose of one's action is serving God which makes them an instrument of releasing His power for His will to be done. The prayers of a prayer warrior go beyond our personal experiences and ask the Lord what else would you have me pray for.
Of course prayer is a personal thing and most are very uncomfortable with their prayer ability. Too often we will not pray or stop praying because we judge our prayers based on what we see and feel. I love this point that Omartian made. She said, "God sees your heart that you are willing to pray. " He is not judging your prayers. Be encouraged because we might never know the full extent of the good our prayers have done or will accomplish, but God does!
1. Your God hears all your prayers.
2. Your God is answering all your prayers in His way an His timing.
Watch out when you are engaged in prayer your relationship with the Lord becomes more engaging!

Zenon Marian Remi (ur. 9 września 1905 w Nowym Sączu, zm. 23 listopada 1967 tamże) – polski urbanista, Architekt Miejski Nowego Sącza, żołnierz kampanii wrześniowej, jeniec oflagu Woldenberg, instruktor harcerski.

Życiorys
Urodził się w rodzinie architekta Zenona Adama Remiego i jego żony Marii z d. Saczek 9 września 1905 w Nowym Sączu. Ukończył I Gimnazjum im. Jana Długosza w Nowym Sączu a następnie w 1930 wydział architektury politechniki lwowskiej.

W czasie kampanii wrześniowej w stopniu podporucznika rezerwy był dowódcą plutonu w 1 kompanii w batalionie "Nowy Sącz" a następnie był więźniem oflagu Woldenberg.

Christopher Randall, from Rednal, has been sentenced to five years in prison after pleading guilty to three charges of robbery and three charges of possession of a bladed article in a public place following crimes in Rubery in 2019 (Image: West Mercia Police)
A Rednal man has been jailed for five years following a spate of street robberies in Rubery .
Christopher Randall , 28, of Stilthouse Grove, Rednal, pleaded guilty to three charges of robbery and three charges of possession of a bladed article in a public place.
Two robberies took place on September 3, 2019, and a third happened the following day.

During the first incident, Randall robbed a man in his 60s at knifepoint at a cashpoint outside Lloyds Bank on New Road at 8.10am. The victim was unharmed but left shaken by the incident.
Later that day, staff there were threatened with a 'bladed object' at the Late Night Pharmacy, also on New Road, and Randall fled with cash.
The third robbery happened on September 4 at the Famous Cooking Chinese Takeaway on Bristol Road South.
West Mercia Police arrested Randall, 28 later that evening. He appeared at Worcester Crown Court on December 19 where he entered a guilty plea.
He was sentenced to five years imprisonment for the robbery offences with an additional 14 months to be served concurrently for the possession of offensive weapon offences.
Investigating officer DC Claire Masters said: "These were very alarming incidents for the victims and we are pleased that, following our quick and thorough investigation, justice has been done for them."

In a victory for free speech, activism, and education rights, an Illinois appellate court supported the free speech rights of a Chicago professor after her university tried to slander her using an Illinois law intended to shield citizens from powerful interests.
Loretta Capeheart, a professor of justice studies at Northeastern Illinois University (NEIU), defended two NEIU students who were arrested for antiwar organizing on campus. Capeheart was singled out for her activism, and was sued by NEIU officials using the Illinois Citizens Participation Act (ICPA). The ICPA was intended to protect citizens from being sued by powerful interests to force their silence, but NEIU sued Capeheart claiming the ICPA as its defense, thus threatening the very core of the law.

Shine Bright Baby to release new EP in May
"Musica shut down its bar and left the café open Thursday night for Christian rock band Everyday Sunday and the appearance of 4 local bands: Maiden Lane, Shine Bright Baby, August and Fast Awake. Each band respectfully brought their own entourage of fans with a turnout of 150 people, and while there were some technical difficulties, the local bands far outlived what Everyday Sunday had to offer."
The acoustic project known as Maiden Lane was created by The Homecoming's 16-year-old Matt McVaney along with Rejoyce's 19-year-old Tony McVaney. The two brothers had much more of a stage presence than was expected as they began the first act on Thursday night. Maiden Lane was able to wrangle the crowd to the front of the stage and keep everyone interested for the entirety of their set. Songs like Maybe and Surround Me had the power to break your heart, and it's easy to see that Maiden Lane might one day break their indie roots in the Akron area and move on to bigger and better things as they have so much promise at such a young age.
August, an alternative Christian rock band originating from Barberton, seemed to have one of the largest followings out of all of the bands present. Similar in nature to the sound of Nickelback and other mainstream rock bands, August seemed more intent about focusing on their fans and putting on a show rather than progressing instrumentally through their music. Front man Josh Ison spoke of their genuine devotion to their fans, and the crowd response was extremely positive to what they had to offer.
Fast Awake took the same genuine approach to their set when they stepped onto the stage as a band for the last time. In recent months, the band has reported on their MySpace that they were indefinitely breaking up due to the sudden absence of one of their members. Though their time as a band has been relatively short-lived, since 2006, the members of Fast Awake made statements of possibly picking up other projects in the near future, which leaves a lot of leeway for improvement and experimentation.
Everyday Sunday has a lot of room for improvement as well since they sadly did not live up to expectations as a headlining band. Performing dance rock with heavy bass lines seemed to be the largest problem of their performance, as the lead singer Trey Pearson sounded flat and under-appreciated. While it was obvious the four members of the band had really good chemistry, the lyrics and the passion of their music was completely lost.
The entertaining quality of their set existed in their pop-like beats and imitation screams but they were unable to maintain this throughout their poorly extended one hour set. Wake Up! Wake Up!, the single from their first album of the same name had much more grounding than Best Night of Our Lives, which is expected to be released from their upcoming second album on June 16, 2009.
Though Everyday Sunday closed out the concert event on a sour note, the highlight of the evening was Shine Bright Baby's performance within the first hour.
Though off to a slow start after having some minor technical difficulties with the equipment, Shine Bright Baby set the bar for the other bands as they were much more instrumental than any other performance as the second band in the event. Performing brand new versions of Brace Yourself and Heartbreak!! from their first EP proved they were far more advanced since its release in late September of 2008. Since acquiring female drummer Krislyn Wooley and bass player Hudson Taylor, Shine Bright Baby has progressed into its own independent voice that rivals other alternative Christian bands.
The crowd was given a sneak peek of their upcoming EP, entitled The Heart and it's Hope with songs like Deadbolt and We Were Made To, which combined the original sound of their first EP along with deeper, hard hitting lyrics. Also performed from their upcoming EP was the theatrical five minute 1000 Ideals of Man. With this powerful on-edge performance, along with surprising guest vocals by Zoltan Foxx from Canadian band Jay and the Lovebirds , Shine Bright Baby carried an independence that solidifies their standing within the music industry. The Heart and It's Hope will be available May 22, 2009, and from their 30 minute performance Thursday night, their new EP will bring much satisfaction to both new and old fans this summer.

Air New Zealand addresses biodiversity crisis in new safety video
Air New Zealand has released its new safety video which brings attention to New Zealand's biodiversity crisis.
The video, titled A Journey to Safety, tells the story of a young girl who helps transport a lost takahē to his new home with the help of Air New Zealand and the Department of Conservation (DOC).
The airline's latest offering builds on its eight-year partnership with DOC. The two organisations have been working together since 2012 to help protect and enhance New Zealand's natural environment.
Under the partnership the airline has transported more than 3,200 threatened species to safe havens, funded pest traps across 38,000 hectares of the country, and supported marine science and research within New Zealand's marine reserves.
The video shines a spotlight on the crisis many of New Zealand's native species face, with a large number of them on the fast track to extinction.
Each year up to 25 million native birds are killed by introduced predators.
In highlighting the importance of protecting our environment, the video also features New Zealand landscapes including the Murchison Mountains in Fiordland, Tiritiri Matangi in the Hauraki Gulf and Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari in Waikato.

Iran: Looking Beyond the Assassination

Commentary by Anthony H. Cordesman
Download "Iran: Looking Beyond the Assassination" 776kb
Important as the assassination of Mohsen Fakhrizadeh may be, it is only one part of the story. Like the killing of Qassem Soleimani, it has a major political impact and makes it even harder for the United States to negotiate with Iran. At the same time, both the assassination and Iran's nuclear program need to be kept in a broader strategic context.
How Far Has Iran Gotten Toward a Nuclear Device?
First, no one scientist dominated Iran's program. It is the cumulative result of efforts that began under the Shah in the 1970s, and which have evolved ever since. It also now draws on some 75 years of data and leaks since the first nuclear weapon – especially data on how France, Israel, Pakistan, India, and North Korea have acquired their nuclear weapons.
By 2013, there already were estimates that Iran had all of the technology it needed to make a weapon within a year if it could devote all of its enrichment activity to producing weapons-grade material. Such estimates were probably exaggerated then, and they may be exaggerated now, but one needs to be careful about the probable success of arms control efforts like the JCPOA.
The Impact of Advances in Iran's Missile Forces
Other aspects of the military balance are shifting. In 2013, the United States and its Arab strategic partners still had a decisive advantage in terms of modern airpower and precision strike capability relative to Iran's mix of missiles and aging or mediocre combat aircraft.
Today, Iran has demonstrated that it has advanced ballistic and cruise missile technology as well as conventional warhead design capability through its strikes on Saudi oil facilities. These advances in conventional strike capability have implications for Iran's potential nuclear capabilities as well.
No official source has discussed whether Iran has used its missile warfare capabilities to test simulated nuclear warheads – something it would need to do before it tested an actual nuclear warhead. However, a mix of telemetry and recovered, instrumented warheads could test many aspects of warhead design on a covert basis that the JCPOA – or even IAEA inspections – could not address.
Equally important, one of the most serious criticisms of the JCPOA is that it did not restrict Iran's missile development. It seems highly unlikely that Iran would now consider expanding the JCPOA. Iran's precision-guided conventional missile gives it a major new capability to strike high-value civilian and military targets throughout the region, and it allows Iran to offset U.S. and Arab advantages in airpower, which in addition makes its potential nuclear threat more serious. It seems doubtful that Iran would trade such advantages away.
Testing Simulated Nuclear Weapons
There also are serious questions about the advances that Iran is making in the aspects of nuclear weapon designs that the JCPOA never covered. The IAEA has repeatedly expressed concern about possible Iranian-instrumented explosive testing of a nuclear weapon design, but it has never been allowed into at least one – of the possible three – suspected facility in time to make a determination of whether Iran has taken such steps. Both Pakistan and India, and possibly North Korea, seem to have conducted such tests using non-fissile material without detection before they actually exploded test nuclear weapons. Other, harder to detect, simulation tests can address a number of critical aspects of implosion technology and neutron initiation.
There is no unclassified reporting on whether such Iranian activities have occurred or can be detected, and there does not seem to be reliable open source technical data on how far such efforts can take a given country. The answer, however, may be that they could take Iran to the edge of a functional fission weapon, and it seems possible that they could now take Iran to the point where a reasonably reliable design for a weapon of 10 kilotons or larger can be produced without testing an actual nuclear device.
These issues were never addressed in the JCPOA or in the debate over its efforts to limit the production of weapons-grade fissile material. They have never been mentioned in official public references to Project Amad, Projects 110 and 111, and the SPND. They are, however, critical to any real-world assessment of Iran's progress, and they provide an indication of how complex producing an effective nuclear weapon really is, and how limited the impact of killing a certain number of key scientists can be.
Producing Fissile Material
As for the production of fissile material, the JCPOA's constraints may still be negotiable. Iran has not publicly moved toward a 90% weapons-grade level of enrichment or increased its holding of heavy water. However, Iran may have begun to create new covert nuclear enrichment facilities since the United States pulled out of the JCPOA. It also now has some 12 times the total level of enriched uranium permitted by the agreement. This stockpile is also enriched to 4.5% – above the levels permitted in the JCPOA. This is still a long way from 90%, but it does push the JCPOA envelope.
New Centrifuges
Iran is deploying new IR-2M, IR-4, and IR-6 centrifuges, and no public reporting has emerged about their actual efficiency, size, and design features that might allow Iran to deploy a series of small, isolated facilities to conceal its efforts and reduce their vulnerability.
These are all areas where the U.S., Israel, and other nations looking at Iran's efforts have good security reasons not to report publicly, warn Iran how much they know, and provide a "cookbook" for other proliferators. They also, however, raise key issues about renegotiating the JCPOA. This is not 2000 or 2013. Iran has moved on, and it has made major open progress in missile warhead design and guidance. It also has sharply raised Israeli and Saudi concerns over Iran's programs.
The Other Side of Iran's Activities
At the same time, it is equally important to look at Iran's progress in other areas. Far too much emphasis is being placed upon the JCPOA and Iran's nuclear programs, and far too little emphasis is placed on the real-world damage being done by U.S. sanctions and the "maximum pressure" campaign on Iran's economy and Iran's progress in bypassing sanctions as well as in other areas of security.
Consider how the following developments outside the nuclear arena have evolved since the negotiations for the JCPOA fist began, since "Implementation Day" on January 16, 2016, and since President Trump withdrew from the JCPOA on May 18, 2018:
Iran's Other Military Gains
Iran has demonstrated the ability to conduct precision strikes reliably with conventionally armed ballistic and cruise missiles/drones against key aspects of Saudi petroleum facilities. The same strikes can deprive Gulf states from their desalination plants, electric power, and plants that cost millions of dollars and which have specialized components that can take up to several years to replace. They can also hit critical fixed military facilities or anyone with a cellphone-sized device by gathering precise GPS targeting coordinates or by visiting such facilities without sophisticated intelligence assets.
Iran is acquiring sophisticated air/missile defense capabilities from Russia through its purchase of the S-300, and it may have access to S-400 missile technology.
Iran has steadily improved its hybrid warfare capabilities to attack shipping and air traffic in the Gulf – proliferating new attack craft, submersible, anti-ship missiles, smart mines, and sensor systems.
The UN arms embargo has expired. Russia and China can now sell Iran arms, and China is reported to be considering a massive strategic partnership agreement with Iran.
Iran is a signatory to the Chemical Weapons Convention but has not reported on its stockpiles. No clear open source data exist on its current biological and chemical weapons efforts.
Iran's Major Gains in the Region
Iran's strategic partner, the Lebanese Hezbollah, is the dominant security force in a shattered Lebanon and has steadily built up its missile forces, including precision-guided Iranian systems.
Syria now seems likely to be placed fully under Assad's control in 2021, leaving Iran with a key role in the country, ties to the Hezbollah in the region, and possible links to Russia.
The U.S. is faltering badly in Iraq. It has sharply reduced its presence after helping to break up the ISIS "caliphate," and so far, it has ceded many potential aspects of its strategic partnership with Iraq after Popular Mobilization Force (PMF) attacks. Iraq may emerge under far more serious Iranian influence.
The Yemeni civil war is so far being won by the Houthi, Iran's strategic partner. This gives Iran access to the Red Sea and the ability to threaten Saudi Arabia from the South – a threat that also includes precision-guided, conventionally armed missiles capable of striking key Saudi petroleum facilities and other infrastructure.
If the U.S. withdraws from Afghanistan in May 2021, it will remove the U.S. presence near Iran's eastern border and may expand Iran's influence in Afghanistan, Central Asia, and South Asia – as well as to the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.
Failed Progress in the Southern Arab Gulf States
Steps like the Saudi-Emirati boycott of Qatar have left the Southern Arab Gulf states even more divided with sharply limited military progress in the Gulf Cooperation Council, and they have restricted progress in creating integrated air and missile defense and Arab capabilities to defend against Iran's steadily improving hybrid naval-air-missile capabilities in the Gulf and nearby waters.
Uncertain U.S. policies
The U.S. emphasis on "burdensharing" and arms sales, while reducing its presence in the region, has seriously undermined Arab trust in the U.S. – although military-to-military relations remain good.
The U.S. has failed to address the strategic importance of the Gulf – which supplies some 20% of the world's petroleum and is critical to importing states like China – in its new military strategy. Many U.S. officials talk about energy independence, but U.S. dependence on manufactured trade with Asian states dependent on Persian/Arab Gulf petroleum is now a far higher percent of total U.S. trade – and of the U.S. GDP – than past U.S. dependence on Gulf petroleum imports.
Iran's Reactions
Iranian popular distrust and reactions to U.S. sanctions are still a factor, but the Supreme Leader, Revolutionary Guard, and other hardline elements have greatly strengthened internal security forces, excluded all moderate candidates from the recent legislative election, and cracked down on other moderate voices, which clearly dominate the government and may well not allow any moderate voice to run for President in 2021.
The government has also had significant success in exploiting assassinations like that of Qassem Soleimani to build up popular anger against the United States.
Inheriting Exactly What?
These are not arguments that the U.S. is losing to Iran in the Gulf. Many U.S. and partner military capabilities have improved, sanctions have created problems for the Iranian regime, Israel remains strong, and some Arab arms buys have (or will be) major advances in air power.
They are, however, warnings. First, the Biden Administration cannot simply return to the past in regard to the JCPOA; and second, many aspects of the U.S. position in the region have deteriorated over the last four years. Important as events like the assassination of Mohsen Fakhrizadeh may be in some ways, they are only a small part of the full story.

Home Respiratory health How To Choose A Nebulizer?
A nebulizer is a medical device that is used by patients with respiratory illnesses such as asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia and more. The anatomy of the airways caused particles to be filtered out before they reach the lungs, but small particles between 1 and 7 µm in diameter will reach the relevant parts more effectively.
Therefore, selecting the most appropriate device for drug delivery is very important for optimal results. Increase in efficiency of drug delivery means that the medication will act faster and at a lower dosage which will reduce the incidence of side effects.
Compressor Nebulizers – Compressor nebulizers is powered by a compressed gas that flows at high velocity through the liquid medicine to turn it into aerosol form. These are less expensive and offers a range of particle sizes output. Also known as tabletop nebulizers, they are heavy and are not meant to be carried around. They may be more suitable for those who prefer stationary use. They require an electric outlet for operation and have a tendency to be a little noisy.
Mesh Nebulizers – Mesh nebulizers use electricity or ultrasonic wave and the liquid drug is pushed through a vibrating mesh/membrane with laser drilled hole, producing very fine droplets through the hole. It is considered the fastest working device. It operates on a battery power supply quietly and efficiently. Given it handheld function, it's ultra-compact and portable compared to compressor nebulizers.
Although your health care provider will recommend a suitable nebulizer for your medication administration, you may still have choices when it comes to brand, size, or maximum input of medication. If you've decided that using a nebulizer for respiratory treatment is right for you or a loved one then here are some guides in finding a nebulizer that should work for you.
The choice of the device should be tailored to your condition. Different diseases require a different intervention. Upper respiratory diseases such as common cold may require larger particle size while lower respiratory diseases as COPD require smaller particle size. For example, compressor nebulizer offers a range of particle size while mesh nebulizer offers consistent particle size.
Meanwhile, the patients suffering from multiple respiratory diseases, a nebulizer that delivers different, adjustable particle sizes will be a convenient solution. Ask your healthcare provider for a suitable nebulizer recommendation that delivers the right particle size for your underlying condition.
Elderly and infant may have a limited knowledge of operating devices. Cognitive decline in elderly means that more complex manoeuvres with handheld devices will be challenging. Similar situations arise in those with arthritis, failing eyesight, reduced inspiratory flow and complex treatment regimens. For those with limited abilities to adopt complex inhalation technique, it might be better to choose a simple compressor nebulizer. Your healthcare providers should be made aware of emerging problems, including dexterity or cognitive decline. If you're getting one for your child, nebulizers with low noise and gentler mist are what you should be looking for. You may look for a versatile model with optional, child-friendly accessories. Choose a nebulizer that is practical for you as a caregiver. If your child or loved one requires nebulizer therapy, it's also important that other caregivers who might administer treatment understand how to properly use a nebulizer.
Your healthcare provider will recommend a nebulizer that is most efficient for your use. Know that certain medications work best with specific types of nebulizers, and some medications have limitations for which nebulizers they can be used with. Also, keep in mind that the therapy is only effective if the device is operated correctly. Make sure your ability to use the nebulizer is assessed by a competent healthcare professional. If you are unable to use the device properly, discuss with your healthcare provider for an alternative. If your child is using the nebulizer, ensure that your health care provider periodically re-evaluates to ensure the most appropriate aerosol device is being used as your child grows.
It is important to opt for a device that is easy to use according to your lifestyle. If you are constantly on the go, consider purchasing mesh nebulizer and the necessary accessories like power supplies to carry with you. On the other hand, stationary compressor nebulizers may suit as a good aid for usage by children or elderly or if you are more homebound. Some people prefer to purchase both types of nebulizers. If you're unsure of which type to purchase, it might be best to go with mesh nebulizer for greater convenience.
When and where the aerosol therapy is required can also impact device selection. Therapy that is given routinely, once or twice a day does not need to be as portable as medication administered more frequently or rescue medications that may be required at any time. In environments where you are in close proximity to other people, you may prefer a device with the least noise and least treatment time. You should also choose devices that limit or filter exhaled aerosol to avoid secondhand exposure to aerosols.
Many patients are prescribed more than one inhaled drug. To avoid confusion as to how to use each device for each medication, ask your healthcare provider to suggest a nebulizer that suits all of your medication. Using the same device or decreasing the number of different devices will make you adhere more to therapy while minimizing the confusion caused. Although nebulizers allow multiple separate drugs to be inhaled at the same time, do not combine medication unless they are known not to negatively impact each other.
Ensure that the nebulizer you choose is of good durability so that it can withstand daily cleaning procedures. Nebulizers last longer when properly cared for which also involves checking the air filter frequently and changing it when necessary.

Hey Jay how are you? I cannot find the firmware dectector software in the downloads area. Can you point it out for me.
Hello, Jay im having the same problem i cant tell the firmware of my two orbs :?
My two orb shield kits have not come in yet and i was trying to make sure that my hardware was compatible.
Plus we're still having occasional problems that I just can't seem to diagnose, but when they happen they're shield-related and not orb-related. I picked up a logic analyzer to try and diagnose the next one, but hopefully I can do a redesign for the Arduino Leonardo that will simplify it a bit.

Heartland Outdoors Forum | Introduce kids? How?
I am sitting here thinking about the future hunters and trying to rack my brain on how in the hell to get them involved and keep them interested. I'm a father of 3 young ones and I'm the only one that works and I take care of a relative that can't provide for herself due to an accident. So obviously there's not much extra so in turn I hunt public ground as will my kids more than likely. So this is where the dilemma comes in. We all know that there is not enough public ground to support the hunters that need to use it, and that's evident by the amount of vehicles pouring into these places. My hunting success suffers dramatically because of this as well as others out there as well. So this brings me to the main point…..I love to hunt when I can and keep at it because I know what the reward is at the end but when you add kids to the public ground equation, it's easy to get them involved but keeping their attention for the hours and weeks it takes to get a mere sighting is where I feel we are going to lose their interest! I'm sure I'm not alone in this way of thinking…...! Most working and growing families can't afford a lease, friends reluctantly invite YOU (one hunter) to go on their ground sometimes but add a kid or 2 and you don't get an invite at all!, and I have knocked on doors till I'm blue in the face to get the same redundant answers. And like I said I know I'm not alone here! So what is a guy supposed to do to get and keep the future interested when there's not much you can do?
Squirrel hunting is a great start. My son loves it. Also shed hunting, scouting, fishing, and taking them out in the woods. It doesn't always have to be to go hunt. Getting them out of the house and away from video games and social media garbage is a great start. We go to the archery range too. Anything outdoors is good but in small doses at first.
Public ground is tough for kids, atleast around here it is. I've made it work but it's hard.
Yeah we do all of that also. But they have been doing all that for 3 and 5 years respectively and they are showing interest in deer now and I'm at a loss because I know they won't see much and after the success of everything else we have done I think they might lose interest. But I guess ya have to separate the men from the boys so to speak at some point. It's definitely a difficult crossroads!
GREAT TOPIC!!!!Ive tried working with outfitters,landowners, on this. Bottom line, Deer hunting in illinois is becoming a money sport and due too outfitters our kids,wives,grandkids will never experience what it was like before outfitters came in….Freaking sad!!!
I know from experience that it's not easy. Your hunting season becomes their hunting season. It becomes a frustrating struggle of how to get them on deer consistently. Without a good piece of private ground it's hard. Those deer are super smart and pressured a lot in smaller public hunting places. It's gotta be more about the whole experience, the adventure, and an appreciation for nature and all around you. Filling a tag is a bonus to the experience. I feel your pain. It's fun but you wanna pull all your hair out at the same time lol.
don't forget we have a youth season, and sometimes various hunt club have youth hunts for kids. In central Il we have a great pheasants forever youth program, sponsored by PF and ran by the Gilies family who provide a fantastic experience for young hunters. Somebody on this site should be able to give you specifics.
I agree it is all about the whole experience and I get that but there has to be some success somewhere too. If money didn't have everything locked down tighter than a drum I believe things would be different for sure. But just like fishing you start with bluegills to get their confidence up, you don't start with catfish because they would lose interest. Just like starting with squirrels for hunting is great but saying "maybe next time" everytime is going to cause them to drift away. The kids don't care about the experience, they want to see results and it has been like that since the beginning….it's how kids think. My kids would be happy with just deer sightings but this day and age on public ground, that is getting scarce also. The pheasants forever thing is definitely worth checking out also!
One thing you should mention is where you live and how far are you willing to travel. Someone may PM you with a spot, if they knew what areas you are looking. As has been mentioned, the youth season would probably be less crowded on public land, or hunt club youth programs.
I agree with WTfreak, about the money game…only I long to go back to the late 1950's to 1976. Why? Few deer. Very little leasing, except for PRIME waterfowl area's. A decent to very good upland population, with fairly easy access.
To be completely honest and fair, this post isn't about trying to find a spot just for my kids….... My point is that there is a HUGE problem on the horizon in the way of young people being brought into the sport! I'm not sure at this point what could be done to turn it around other than run the source of the problem (money) out of the equation but I'm doubtful that will ever happen. I am in Tazewell county and would travel a couple hours.
I agree but you'll never get the big money out. That's what fuels the evil empire! They ruined it and they're here to stay.
In my youth, even avid fishermen rarely owned boats, unless they lived on a lake. Boats were wood and didn't trailer well. Some serious fishermen actually owned an outboard-with a 7.5 hp. being HUGE! The average fisherman probably owned a couple of rods and cane poles. Live bait was way more prevalent than artificial, regardless of species sought. Bluegill and other panfish off the bank were fine, with a possible bass or catfish thrown in.
Then came Ray Scott's BASS and bass tournaments. Suddenly, we had to have a bass boat, then a 20' metal-flake monster, moving from 25's to 250hp motors. I won't even mention perfecting that southern drawl when talking about big bass. Several dozen rods, rigged with different lures and tackle boxes the size of Volkswagens, became the norm. Walleye, crappie, muskie, catfish joined the tournament trail. It became a sin to lay a tournament species on a filet board.
Bank fishermen and even johboaters are looked down on. Live bait draws looks of contempt. Cleaning a mess of fish became a mortal sin.
In my 60 years of Illinois hunting history, prime waterfowl areas were always subject to leasing or purchasing. Access to most other hunting acreage was often free for the asking. I don't know when the antler worship took over. I know I lost my first hunting/fishing spot to deer hunting doctor in early 1980's. I became aware that it was getting out of hand when a quail hunting buddy in Pike county reported that he had lost EVERY spot he had to deer leasers.
By the mid `90's, former IDNR Director, Bent Manning, had thrown the doors wide open for outfitters and rich leasers. It might have happened anyway, but he sure greased the skids. For what, Bent, for WHAT?
Friday, I sat in a ground blind, cursing my old friend, Jack Calhoun, for reintroducing deer to the state. You see, I'm not really a deer hunter. I HATE sitting like a mute statue in the deer woods. Despite seeing some interesting thing, I eventually get bored to tears. I'd much prefer following a dog, chasing the ever decreasing quail and pheasant populations, or sharing BS and breakfast in a duck blind with my buddies and dog.
Sadly, like many, I've lost WAY, WAY too many upland spots and marginal duck ponds or sloughs to deer leasing. Luckily, I do have access to several farms where I can call turkeys and put up a deer stand. Some don't have that luxury.
Chris, the money genie (leasing) is out of the bottle. Any ideas on ways to get it back in? Even if every deer disappeared from the Illinois landscaper tomorrow, landowners that have leased their ground that they can get some income for allowing recreational access to their acreage. I seriously doubt they will readily revert back to free play…at least not in the years I have left.
I wish I had a solution, but I don't. Well, maybe…win the Lottery…and get an IOU from the state.
If you do not have the funds I would just give up. Putting your kids in the situation of very low odds of a harvest will just aggravate them. Maybe you will be in a better position down the road where you will be able to satisfy there "wants" out of life.
I definitely wouldn't give up lol. That sets a bad example for the kids involved. You never want to send that message to your children. Keep fighting the fight and knocking on doors. There's deer on the public land but sometimes you need a change in strategy.


On April 17 at 6PM the Extra-Territorial Zoning Commission is scheduled to meet in Commission Chambers in the Doña Ana County Government Center, 845 N. Motel Blvd, to discuss County staff recommendation to rezone the 16-acre parcel (case Z13-005/DAC) "ER3C3" — planned commercial development..
On page 27 of the Agenda document, you'll find the recommended permitted uses, those with and without conditions and the strikeouts from the list, which are not permitted. Steve Meadows stressed this is a draft and it is not likely to be the final product. It is definitely worth looking at to give you an idea of what could appear at this parcel should the rezoning be approved. Written comments and documents must be hand delivered or emailed to Steve Meadows by close of business Thursday, April 10, to be included in the packet for the Commission. You may also present information to the Commission at the public hearing on April 17. As you may know from attendance at previous meetings, the Commission will hear staff's recommendation, vote on it, and send their recommendation to the ETA. Thank you again for letting the ETZ Commission know your thoughts on this matter. Email, call, or hand deliver documents by COB Thursday, April 10, to: Steve Meadows 575-525-6121. Please call or email Dael and Peter Goodman if you have any questions.

The Rundown: Let it Go Yadi, South Side Saloon Slams Door on Cubs Fans, Ian Happ Poised for Breakout Year
Michael CanterJanuary 24, 2019
Facebook Twitter Reddit Pocket
Since winter is officially here, would it be too much to ask to re-light the hot stove? I had a helluva morning yesterday and never even made it to work, and I do appreciate that Evan Altman so aptly filled in for me. Thank you, Winter Storm Indra.
Though I was eventually stuck at home for the day (it took me 75 minutes to drive three miles after digging out my car for two hours), I stayed off of the internet almost entirely, particularly social media. Cardinals fans have been extra ballsy since Yadier Molina "faced" Kris Bryant in defending the city of St. Louis (quoted because it was such a weak defense).
The Cardinals are attempting to rally around Kris Bryant's "boring" comment:https://t.co/tYA7juIgvY
— Cubs Talk (@NBCSCubs) January 23, 2019
For what it's worth, this is how I picture most Cardinals fans.
A quick perusal of the remaining available free agents indicated that no one named Indra is on the open market, so I can see why Cubs fans were not as enthused as they were when Winter Storm Harper breezed through the Midwest last weekend. Honestly, I don't know why we started naming winter storms. It just seems so ridiculous. If it were my choice, I'd name every storm system that passes through during hot stove season Dan Plesac. I don't think I'll get any support from the Weather Channel however.
The climate is considerably more mild at the Wrigleyville offices this winter. The team officially announced the signing of Colin Rea yesterday, who I actually thought was a country & western singer. Buried in that scorching lead story was the signing of outfielder Zach Borenstein, who I actually thought was a sports talk radio host in Chicago. The 28-year-old journeyman has yet to see the big leagues. These are the fruits of the hardest working executive in baseball this winter.
Meanwhile, somewhere, day or night, the "Yadfather" is still talking about Kris Bryant.
And even if you could somehow convince me that the Gateway to the Midwest isn't the most boring city in America — with the most boring nickname, mind you — facts show residents have been leaving the city in droves since the 1940's. That should be a great selling point when the Redbirds attempt to sign and/or trade for major league players. I guess the Archway residents have struggled to find any real reason to stay once Stan Musial retired in 1963.
Cardinals fans may not want to pin their hopes on Paul Goldschmidt re-signing with the team next winter, especially if John Mozeliak expects to retain him at a discounted price.
Signing Paul Goldschmidt beyond 2019 could be more complicated than it sounds for Cardinals #TheAthletichttps://t.co/v9OW1hSN7l

Cubs News & Notes
Amidst all of the fighting with St. Louis, White Sox fans want their turn at amping up what was thought to be a euthanized rivalry. A new speakeasy on the South side of Chicago has a few rules for anyone entering, including no cell phones, no MAGA hats, and no Cubs fans.
There are five big questions facing the Cubs as the team heads to spring training in a few weeks.
If the Cubs aren't going to sign Bryce Harper, perhaps they should start to focus on the upcoming free agency of Mike Trout. Are we really going there?
If there is ever a job title that I would love to have, it is Director of High Performance. I wish I would have spotted that Cubs opening on Craigslist. I've yet to see any Josh Gordon jokes, but surely a few are coming.
Cole Hamels envisions himself as the ace of the Cubs' 2019 staff. I like it. Hamels has resigned himself to signing one-year contracts for the rest of his career, and as long as he continues to pitch at a top of rotation level, I hope he remains in the team's future plans.
I have a hard time picturing David Bote playing for the Padres. Though he slumped severely once his weaknesses were exposed by major league pitchers, he seems like the kind of player Theo Epstein would retain this year, which is to say he's really cheap. However, the Cubs could use some minor league pitching, and the Friars are well-stocked there.
Ian Happ is poised to be the Cubs' breakout star of 2019.
The Cubs have reportedly signed a pair of teenage Cuban prospects.
Thomas Ian Nicholas believes the Rookie of the Year remake will not feature the Cubs. Nicholas played Henry Rowengartner in the 1993 classic, a role that was almost given to Macaulay Culkin.
Robert Boarde Green, father of Cubs VP of communications and community relations Julian Green, was struck and killed Monday morning in an intersection in the 8500 block of South Cottage Avenue on Chicago's South Side. Robert Green was a member of the Chatham Village chamber symphony, one of the only all-African American chamber symphony orchestras, and co-founded the Chatham Village Symphony Orchestra in 1974. Cubs Insider would like to offer our collective condolences to the Green family as they cope with the loss.
Thursday Stove
"Yadi being Yadi" is now a thing. That sound you hear is me chewing off my left arm at the elbow.
Drew Pomeranz has agreed to a one-year deal with the Giants. He'll earn $1.5 million in 2019.
Other than Craig Kimbrel, Ryan Madson and Brad Brach are the last of the decent relief pitchers remaining in free agency. Both are drawing increased interest.
Newly inducted Hall of Fame DH Edgar Martinez was very successful against fellow inductees Mike Mussina and Mariano Rivera throughout his career.
Alex Rodriguez believes Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens are deserving of placement in the Cooperstown shrine. Of course, their Hall of Fame inductions would certainly boost his own case for inclusion in 2022.
Despite stating he hoped to be inducted as a Blue Jay before passing away, Roy Halladay will enter the Hall with no team affiliation at the request of his family.
Brandy Halladay said Roy will not have a Blue Jays or a Phillies logo on his cap for his Hall of Fame plaque. She said it was an easy decision because both teams meant so much to him. Admirable strength and poise as she and their sons met with the media.
— Tyler Kepner (@TylerKepner) January 23, 2019
One presumptuous Philadelphia writer disagrees with that decision.
Ichiro Suzuki has agreed to a minor league deal with the Mariners, paving the way for the 45-year-old to play in the Seattle's season-opening series in Japan.
I'm no fan of the Hall of Fame, and the debate as to whether Rivera should have been the first unanimous selection by the voting committee, and the debate over whether he should even be included at all because he is a closer, is mind boggling to me. I find it very redeeming that baseball has discovered sound reason to include essential players who were great at their positions throughout their careers, even if some consider closers and designated hitters part-time players.
I also find it ironic that baseball writers find the need to point out their collective flaws by dissecting the selections they have made historically. If you admit that you suck at something and have always sucked at it, maybe you shouldn't be allowed to participate in that exercise any longer.
Additionally, the debate over who will be elected next winter started just seconds after this year's inductees were announced. It is just so much overkill, usually accompanied by the middle-school mentality of those stubborn electors. Berry Tramel, a sportswriter for The Oklahoman, gets it wrong here on so many levels. Though I admit there are certainly players who were more deserving of the first unanimous selection, writers actually have no one to blame but themselves, which to me is the biggest flaw in an absurdly idiotic voting process.
I rarely agree with @BerryTramel but he hit a Home Run here imo specifically about the DH. https://t.co/YfkuRX77Gk
