How a little-known lawyer pitched Trump on extreme plans to subvert election
By From elsewhere | July 16, 2022
The New York Times reports:
Around 5 in the afternoon on Christmas Day in 2020, as many Americans were celebrating with family, President Donald J. Trump was at his Mar-a-Lago home in Palm Beach, Fla., on the phone with a little-known conservative lawyer who was encouraging his attempts to overturn the election, according to a memo the lawyer later wrote documenting the call.
The lawyer, William J. Olson, was promoting several extreme ideas to the president. Mr. Olson later conceded some of them could be regarded as tantamount to declaring "martial law" and could even invite comparisons with Watergate. The plan included tampering with the Justice Department and firing the acting attorney general, according to the Dec. 28 memo by Mr. Olson, titled "Preserving Constitutional Order," describing their discussions.
"Our little band of lawyers is working on a memorandum that explains exactly what you can do," Mr. Olson wrote in his memo, obtained by The New York Times, which he marked "privileged and confidential" and sent to the president. "The media will call this martial law," he wrote, adding that "that is 'fake news.'"
The document highlights the previously unreported role of Mr. Olson in advising Mr. Trump as the president was increasingly turning to extreme, far-right figures outside the White House to pursue options that many of his official advisers had told him were impossible or unlawful, in an effort to cling to power.
The involvement of a person like Mr. Olson, who now represents the conspiracy theorist and MyPillow chief executive Mike Lindell, underscores how the system that would normally insulate a president from rogue actors operating outside of official channels had broken down within weeks after the 2020 election.

I am taking the CPP exam next week in Texas. I know there are about 190 questions on the test.
Does anyone know how many you must get correct to pass, what percentage is passing? We have been practicing and practicing.
On all the chapter tests and practice exams I take I have been getting between 80 - 94%. The 80's are on subject to which I have never been exposed, re: benefits.
Was just wondering if anyone knew the passing grade/percentage so I would have an idea if I am in good shape for taking the test.
It is my understanding that the questions are weighted (so calculations may be more important than deadlines for example) and that your scaled score has to be above the line they set for passing. It isn't as simple as getting 160 out of 190 questions correct. You may be able to miss more of the "lesser value" questions as long as you get the "higher value" questions right.
But as pattytx says, they don't publicize the exact formula or which questions are weighted more.
Best of luck, though. Let us know how you do!
I wanted to know the same thing since I took my test a couple of weeks ago. I was passing PayTrain tests at 94-100% and the same for The Payroll Source quizzes at the end of the chapters. I passed the exam well over the weighted grade of 300. I missed 10 questions which was 94%....although as others said that does not really mean anything.
As you can see, on page 2 of the Exam Candidate Handbook, there are 190 questions.
Of the 190 questions, there are 25 "Pre Test Questions"
These 25 Pre test questions are not counted in the scoring of the examination.
What you should be aware of is that you dont know which of 190 exam questions are actually PreTest questions.
They will appear throughout the exam. They might be really challenging questions, and they might be rather simple.
Even though you are given 4 hours, for basically 165 questions, its a good idea to answer all 190 of the questions.
I took the CPP exam last Friday, Oct 5th and PASSED!
Scaled score = 372. I am just happy to have it over.
Congrats on passing. The key now is to keep up on the recertification credits so you don't have to take the test again.
I agree, I plan to keep up my credits. Already have a Web seminar planned for next month.
There was one person who took the class and the test because she had let her certification lapse. I am not sure if she passed, this time.
There was only a 50% pass rate for those people who took the test with me.
I will have to retake it (if I decide to) since I pretty much have no credits. It's too damn expensive!
That is true. Most of the APA classes are over $200 and if your company doesn't pay for them (as mine does not) the cost could add up.
Actually it would probably be cheaper to just take the test every 5 years.
Also look for a local chapter, meetings are low cost and count for RCH's if approved.
I didn't realize this board was censoring and changing certain words... dumb though?? How about darn?
David you hit it right on the head and it's been my one very big criticism of APA national is the classes etc are too darn expensive and gives the perception that it's about the money. Having said that I've been pretty fortunate I've gotten a lot of my hours from teaching the CPP review classes for my chapter and I highly recommend it as both a cost effective measure plus a great way to brush up on your knowledge.

A few years ago, web defacements were largely limited to individual sites, conducted by small groups of security enthusiasts with a bone to pick. Whether it was a political message, a technical statement or an expression of love to a girlfriend, the cracking of websites had a certain allure to them that made even the medium-level enthusiast raise his or her eyebrows.
Today, large groups of loosely-affiliated people work to attack as many websites as possible - cracking hundreds of sites in a single action. Taking the fun out of it. Replacing a well-researched site "hack" with a McCrack. With actions that defy the mantra of exposing vulnerabilities in an ethical way, the burgeoning community known as `script kiddies' are contributing to their own downfall.

Itinerary of Richard I and others to the Holy Land
page. 53
of its fury, we did all we could to guard against the dangers of the place, and pass over the waves that boiled and foamed around. The royal ship was always in advance, and when the king lifted his eyes, he saw beneath a calm sky, a very large ship of the sort called a buss (buza) bearing down, which was returning from Jerusalem. The king, therefore, speedily sent men to inquire for intelligence concerning the siege of Acre, from those who were in the ship; who replied that the king of France had already arrived at Acre in safety, and was diligently employed in making machines, until the arrival of the king of England. The king of France had put into the port of Acre on the Saturday of Easter week, and was applying all his energies to the taking of the city. He had therefore caused petrariǽ to be erected, and placed near the tower Maledictum, as well as other machines for throwing down the walls, for the king of France lay on the side near to that tower. By means of filling up and treading in the trenches, and bringing machines and petrariǽ for casting stones, the wall was in part broken down; but not long afterwards, the machines were attacked and burnt to ashes by the exertions of the Turks. When King Richard heard all these things from the aforesaid sailors, the buss passed on its way, and he made all his arrangements in high spirits; and as the wind was not fair, he beat about, and toiled much to master its uncertainty; but the fleet, from the adverse gales, and the rising and falling of the waves, was forced back, and driven into the open sea. However, the buss from Lyons, in which the queens were, first put into the port of the city of Limozin, in the island of Cyprus; though they did not come to the land, but dropped their anchors at some distance out at sea.
Chapter XXIX. - Of the many misfortunes which befel the Holy Land, especially through the emperor of Cyprus.
With what expiation do we deem the Holy Land to have been punished, or with what scourge smitten, or of what crime guilty, that so many adversaries should have resisted its succour, whereby assistance should have been so long deferred? Nay, it began to be believed that the cause of its redemption being so long delayed was the wickedness of its defenders; and it is very evident by many proofs that the Divine aid was withheld in consequence of the iniquity of its inhabitants; whence also it happened that the excellent soldiers of France, who were looked forward to as brave allies, were unseasonably taken away in the midst. For why need we speak of the death of the illustrious emperor of Germany, whose end sullied the glory of his former reign? or who could relate the grief felt for the death of the once rich and glorious Henry, king of England? By his money, the city of Tyre was preserved, and by his wisdom and prudence it was hoped that the Holy Land would be recovered lastly, what might we say of the decease of William, king of Sicily, who after he had made all the necessary preparations for his pilgrimage, and had oftentimes sent the wished-for aid, was cut off by sudden death, and closed his career? All these, and many other misfortunes, impeded the recovery of the Holy Land, and each of them was more than enough to injure the cause. But there was one thing above all others, we mean that which concerned the island of Cyprus, from which the land of Jerusalem used annually to gain no small profit; but now, after shaking off the yoke of subjection, it disdained to give it any thing, by the direction of the tyrant of the island, who had usurped the imperial power. Most wicked of all bad men, and surpassing Judas in treachery, and Guenelon in treason, he wantonly persecuted all who professed the Christian religion. He was said to be a friend of Saladin, and it was reported that they had drunk each other's blood, as a sign and testimony of mutual treaty, as if by the mingling of blood outwardly, they might become kinsmen in reality. This, too, was afterwards evident by certain proofs; for the tyrant, gaining confidence by this step, and setting at nought the subjection which he owed, falsely usurped the name of emperor, and he was accustomed to seize upon every one who put into the island of his own accord, or was driven thereto by the violence of the wind, that he might extract a ransom from the rich, and force the poor to become slaves. When, therefore, he learnt that a strange fleet had arrived, he determined, according to his custom, to seize upon all who were on board, and, having plundered them of their money, to keep them captives.
Chapter XXX. - Of the shipwreck and misfortune of some of our men,and of their capture and imprisonment; also of the attack they made and the victory they gained over the islanders of Cyprus.
On the vigil of St. Mark the Evangelist, a little before sunset, dark clouds covered the horizon, and the spirit of the storm rushed forth, and

SHORT BIO:Too Sick Charlie (Eric Heiligenstein, M.D.) plays the cigar box guitar, a once forgotten instrument of American blues and roots music. His music has been described as traditional Upper Midwestern cigar box guitar blues.
LONG BIO: Too Sick was born in a Nassau blue Chevy Bel Air that was being used as a beagle pen on the outskirts of Belleville, Illinois. He performed on the Mississippi River Medicine Show Circuit for several years before transitioning into a practice of medicine. After developing various snake oil cures for ailments that proved unfounded (but very, very profitable) he made his way to Madison, Wisconsin where he lives a quiet, ascetic life of medical study, song writing and robustly varied acquiescence to almost constant temptation.
PRESS BIO: Too Sick Charlie's distinctive blend of regional blues music is like a slow-cooked gumbo on a late summer evening; deep, flavorful, satisfying. Too Sick's live performances combine gut-bucket slide on cigar box guitars and compelling stories that make his shows captivating. A performance from Too Sick Charlie is truly "good for what ails ya!"
Too Sick Charlie is currently booking shows & festivals for 2019 and beyond.
Too Sick recently played at the Chicago Cigar Box Festival in Brewyn, Illinois. He played alongside Johnny Lowebow, A.J. Gather, Gabe Carter, Travis Bowlin, Glen Kaiser, John Nickel, and Stacey Puckett.

Featuring work by L&C contributors as well as by Portland artists, this exhibit displayed a variety of approaches to questions of gender and identity in a wide range of different media.
Curated by Katherine Landerholm, L&C '12 and Sula Willson, L&C'12.
Curatorial Statement: As students of gender studies, we have learned that the most intriguing aspect of this field is that everyone has a lived gender experience from which to draw upon. A gendered lens which works to shape the world around them. As artists, we have come to understand that we can use those experiences, that lens, to do more than words can express, to create beauty where sometimes there isn't any. Gender studies and art have at least one major commonality: in both fields you have to draw upon experience to begin to interpret and really appreciate the work. It is our hope that as viewers of this diverse body of gendered artwork, made from many lived experiences, you can use your own gendered lens to appreciate the artist's message.

Q: How to benchmark resources consumed by a Django application? How to monitor resource consumption of a Django application for the backend server only, that is the resource consumption for each request and response cycle.

A: I recommend Django Debug Toolbar - https://django-debug-toolbar.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
It can help you to determine resourced used for request and response cycle i.e CPU. You can also set it up to monitor SQL and cache time.
Here is an example of live website:

Sadr (Gamma del Cigne / γ Cygni) és el segon estel més brillant de la constel·lació del Cigne després de Deneb (α Cygni). Situada al centre de l'asterisme de la Creu del Nord, la seva magnitud aparent és de +2,23. El seu nom prové de la paraula  àrab صدر Sadr, "pit", paraula que dona nom a l'estrella Schedar (α Cassiopeiae). Es troba a uns 1500 anys llum de distància de la Terra.

Sadr és una estrella supergegant groga de tipus espectral F8 Ib, aproximadament 65.000 vegades més lluminosa que el Sol, la temperatura superficial és de 6500 K. D'acord amb la seva brillantor i temperatura, es pot estimar que en el moment del seu naixement la seva massa era unes 12 vegades més gran que la massa solar, la qual cosa la situa en el límit d'acabar els seus dies com una supernova. Al diagrama de Hertzsprung-Russell està situada prop de la regió on les estrelles es tornen inestables i comencen a  prémer, variant en brillant. Encara que no és una estrella clarament  variable, sembla prémer en una forma complexa amb un cicle de 74 dies.

Visualment localitzada en una complexa regió de la Via Làctia, apareix envoltada per la nebulosa d'emissió difusa IC 1.318, il·luminada per estrelles joves i calentes. No obstant això, Sadr no forma part de la nebulosa, ja que està a mig camí entre aquesta i la Terra, sent una estrella en primer pla. El cúmul obert NGC 6910, en el mateix camp visual, també es troba molt més distant.

NaNoWriMo 2021 Day 8
NaNoWriMo is National Novel Writing Month and is held every November. It's a challenge to write 50,000 words of a novel in thirty days (or 1,667 per day). Writers and wanna-be writers come together with a common goal to write novels, short stories, memoirs, whatever it is they've been putting off or need a push to get started. This year I decided I would document my daily writing practice as I strive to finish a draft of a novel I've been taking far too long on.
Words Written: 3,149
Total Word Count: 13,429
Goal: 50,000
Today was, by far, the best writing day I've had in a long time, and especially over the past 8 days. My goal when I set out for the day was just to hit the daily goal of 1667. I obviously wanted to be back on track but after two really poor writing days I was just looking to hit the daily goal without stressing myself out.
But I hit about 1400 words before 6:30AM and I was feeling really good about it. I wrote a few hundred more before it was time to get ready for school. After school drop off and a grocery run, I went to the library. In the first 20 minute sprint I did over 700 words. I did a second sprint and was over 3000 words for the day.
I was especially happy because it didn't feel forced at all. I really enjoyed the scene I was writing and feel like it's actually something that will turn into something amazing. This is the feeling that I think writers look for when writing. It's not forced, it's not stressful, it feels like a story moving directly from your mind to the page without really putting much thought into it. When I was little and wanted to be a writer, this is the enjoyment I got from writing. That was the feeling I wanted to chase for the rest of my life.
I'm being poetic about it now but it was actually a great feeling that I'm really happy I've had the chance to find again. It's been a while since I felt good about writing. It's nice to know that a daily writing practice has been able to bring back the fun in writing. Hopefully it stays that way.

Hi. I am on the verge of getting a teaching job that way, and even if I don't, I can substitute almost immediately. I need affordable housing f some type, whether it be a small apt. or cottage, or a room. I can afford $600 but would consider somewhat more if utilities were included. I am a 60 yr old SWF. I don't smoke or drink and I've already had a criminal check for teaching. I am fairly quiet too. My biggest requirement, besides safety, is that there are no mice or bedbugs, neither of which I can handle. I am making this move so I can be happy!


Norwalk Public Schools has partnered with the nonprofit Springboard Collaborative to pilot a six-week summer program to close the literacy gap among students, and encourage parent engagement. The program, which was approved by the Norwalk Board of Education during last week's board meeting, will kick off this summer at Jefferson Science Magnet and Kendall Elementary schools.
While all Jefferson and Kendall students will be invited to attend this free program, with the possibility of being placed on a waitlist, those who perform well below state standards in English Language Arts will be required to attend. Approximately 200 students from each school are expected to enroll in the program, double the number of students who would qualify for the Norwalk Summer Academy. All other students performing below the standard throughout the district will attend Summer Academy as in previous summers.
Springboard differs from typical summer school programs in that caregivers are encouraged to attend weekly workshop sessions through incentives. These sessions are designed to help families build confident learners and successfully support literacy at home. The partnership also provides educators with support and coaching for targeted reading instruction for students struggling in the area of English Language Arts.
Rewards will be offered to parents who attend all five weekly workshops in order to help their child reach a predetermined goal. Students who reach this goal will win a backpack filled with school supplies. Students who exceed this goal, and have a designated family member who attends all of the workshops, will receive a tablet.
This program is free to families. The pilot is being funded in part by the priority school district grant, with the rest of the money funded by private donors.

Student Loan Losses Seen Costing U.S. More Than $400 Billion
The U.S. government stands to lose more than $400 billion from the federal student loan program, an internal analysis shows, approaching the size of losses incurred by banks during the subprime-mortgage crisis.
The Education Department, with the help of two private consultants, looked at $1.37 trillion in student loans held by the government at the start of the year. Their conclusion: Borrowers will pay back $935 billion in principal and interest. That would leave taxpayers on the hook for $435 billion, according to documents…

It's prospect list day on the internet. Earlier today the folks at Baseball Prospectus released their Top 101 prospect list. And now we have the Baseball America Top 100 list. You can see the entirety of the list right here, but you will need to be a subscriber to see the list. The Cincinnati Reds had a nice showing on the list, landing five prospects on the list and all of them were in the top 70.
Cincinnati Reds top prospect Nick Senzel was the top prospect from the organization on the list. He came in at #10 on the list, and was the only Reds prospect to crack the top 30. Senzel is listed as a 3B/2B on the list, and is noted as being ready to make an impact in 2019. That's not surprising given that he beat up on Triple-A pitching in 2018 before an injured finger, and subsequent surgery cost him the remainder of his season after the injury in late June.
Taylor Trammell came in ranked at #33 on the list. He, along with Senzel, gave the Reds two top 50 prospects. This is a bit surprising, given that Trammell was the #3 prospect in the system when Baseball America released the Reds Top 10 list earlier this offseason. The ranking spot itself sounds correct, though. He's got all of the tools you want to see on offense, and only his arm strength keeps him from being a true 5-tool player. Still, he's got a very well rounded game that could be a difference making skillset in the Major Leagues as early as late 2019.
In another slightly surprising ranking, Jonathan India came in next among the Reds prospects. This is only surprising given that he, like Trammell, ranked behind Hunter Greene on the organizational list, but is ahead of him on the Top 100. The Reds first round pick in 2018 cracks the list at #51. He split his half-year in the organization between rookie-level Greeneville, rookie-level Billings, and Low-A Dayton. When the offseason began he was a part of a deep crop of potential third and second base prospects. Trades, however, have taken that depth away some. Still, along with Senzel, he provides high-end talent on the depth chart at both spots.
Hunter Greene came in on the list a few spots later, at #57. The now 19-year-old saw his 2018 season cut short by a tear in his UCL in his pitching elbow. He chose to go the rehab route, much like other Reds pitchers Michael Lorenzen and Anthony DeSclafani did. And like them, it has worked thus far. He began throwing with no restrictions in December as he prepares for the 2019 season.
Tony Santillan wraps up the Reds representation on the list. He got a nice ranking, coming in at #69 overall. It's the highest ranking he has had in his career thus far. In the previous update of the Baseball America Top 100 back in early August he was ranked at #96. I'll argue he's the most underrated prospect in the organization, but he's getting recognized here. He split his year in Advanced-A Daytona and Double-A Pensacola in 2018. In his 149.0 innings he posted a 3.08 ERA with 38 walks and 134 strikeouts – showing better peripherals in Double-A than Advanced-A.
How do the Reds stack up in the division?
The Cincinnati Reds landed five players on the list. So did the St. Louis Cardinals, who were led by Alex Reyes. Pittsburgh had three players, led by Mitch Keller. Milwaukee only had two players make their list, with Keston Hiura being the tops from the organization. The Chicago Cubs were left off of the list entirely.
Even with the trades that have taken place, the Reds still have arguably the top farm system within the division. Among the top five prospects in each organization, they are clearly in front of everyone else. And it's not like there's not still plenty of depth behind that group, either. It's not quite what it was before the team moved Jeter Downs, Josiah Gray, and Shed Long – all top 11 prospects in the organization at the time. But there's still plenty of quality prospects in the Top 20 within the system.
How does the current group stack up historically?
It's going to be tough to beat the 2008 class of Cincinnati Reds prospects. Hindsight certainly helps the allure, but even at the time the group was special. Depending on where you looked, four players were ranked within the top 25 in all of baseball. Jay Bruce was the #1 prospect that year on the Baseball America list. Homer Bailey came in at #9. Johnny Cueto was next, coming in at #34 on the list. Then there was Joey Votto at #44 overall. Drew Stubbs rounded out the Reds representation at #100. That group and this current group had five guys in total, but the representation was a bit better that year. Guys were just a little bit higher, across the board, than this years crop. And while the depth each year does come into play, I don't believe it makes a difference here.
With all of that said, the current group is quite strong. Who knows if it will flourish and help turn the Reds fortunes around like that 2008 class did. That class was special in the sense that the top four guys were all Major League ready at roughly the exact same point in time. This group isn't and is a bit more spread out in terms of their ETA. Still, it wouldn't be much of a surprise if several players from this class reaches the Majors before June of 2020.
I think India is a little high, Greene a little low, Santillan, Senzel, and Trammell about right. Maybe a little low on Trammell, but I get the reasoning with his second half slump. I listened to the BA podcast on the Reds about a week ago, and the guy (can't remember his name) seemed fairly knowledgeable, but man he's got to work on his presentation. I'm a die hard Reds prospect guy and I was getting bored. I miss JJ doing the Reds list, but he's got bigger fish to fry now.
I'm not concerned about Greene at all. Even if he has to have surgery- he'll be only 21 still when he's back on the mound.
May I ask if the Greene injury was a tear?
I think that's the report I read.
Any chance the Reds call up Trammell from AA, like the Nationals did with Soto? Seems like the Reds have always been slow with prospects.
The Reds are not slow with their prospects. That's an idea that won't die no matter how many times I show that it's very untrue as a whole. You can argue they slow-played Nick Senzel. Everyone else? Nope.
Thanks for the correction. I had heard the slow thing elsewhere but only noticed it myself w/respect to Senzel. Did you write an article on this issue or anything? Would love to read it. Don't want to be carrying around unproven myths in my head.
No, I haven't written much about it as an overall concept. But I've talked about, and probably written about it a few places in regards to the top end guys that always get compared to how the most elite prospects have been moved in the last few years.
Simple as this: The Reds prospects simply haven't been good enough to fly through the minors. The guys like Acuna are both insanely tooled out AND insanely productive. The Reds have had one guy like that in the last decade plus: Jay Bruce. And he flew through the minors. When Tony Cingrani flew through the minors, he was the most dominant pitcher you've ever seen in the minors. When the Reds get guys that have tools and perform at insane levels, they've pushed them HARD. It's just that those guys don't come around in a given organization too often. You see it around the Majors every year with a guy or two – but it's not like that's happening in every organization every year. It happens in one organization every decade. Maybe twice if they get lucky.
Good point. Reds were very lucky in 1960s. Jim O'Toole (actually late 1950s for him), Gary Nolan, and Don Gullett each spent only 1 year in Reds MiLB system before making it to the Reds. Each was a productive P for about a decade.
Stars (like Pete Rose and Johnny Bench) spent 3 years in MiLB before making it to the Reds. Players like Lee May, Tommy Helms, and Tony Perez spent 4-5 years in MiLB.
There are other examples in 1980s and 1990s.
Baseball is a different game than it was then. Teams weren't lucky to get guys to do it back then. They are today.
Only three I remember. Jim Maloney maybe. All of one year and most of another before coming up to Reds.
Frank Robinson 3 years. Vada Pinson 2 years. Most Reds back then spent 4-5 years in MiLB before coming up to Reds.
Trammell would have to show a whole, whole lot in Chattanooga for a MLB call-up, I would think. He's just turned 21, so there is no reason to rush.
Plus, I hope that there isn't a place for him in the Cincinnati lineup this season, because it would mean that at least 2 of Schebler, Winker, Senzel and Puig are hurt or not producing. I could see where they might want a CF upgrade defensively at some point this season, but I doubt Trammell would be their first internal option in that event.
Soto>>>>Trammell. Not even close but very few are.
.919-Soto's lowest ops for a season, including MLB.
.819- Trammell's highest ops in a season.
Dont worry, Juan Soto is a freak of nature, once in a decade type prospect.
Didn't the Reds have some trade talks with the Nationals about Iggy and Soto a few years back? Would be nice to have him here now.
The Nats asked about Iglesias a couple years ago. The price started with either Robles or Soto, and they balked at trading either one.
Let's look at the 2008 Group of Five (Reds MiLB prospects in Top 100).
Most spent 3-4 years in Reds MiLB system before coming up to Reds.
One (Votto) spent 6 years in Reds MiLB before getting called up to Reds.
He had been playing games since February, so I wouldn't be shocked if he was a little road weary. Should be ready for a full season this year though and has had winter to recoup.
So it looks like to me that the Reds let a lot of minor leaguers go to free agency this year, more than normal, especially from AA and AAA. Despite that, Louisville is going to be stacked from what I can see this year, especially on the pitching side. I think that shows the depth and the number of prospects within the organization.
Great spot for Trammell at #33. Baseball Prospectus is jumping the gun ranking him #11. I like the plate discipline, but he does not project all that well in center with his arm, and for all he did at the futures game, he had all of 8 HR's all season, including 90 plate appearances in AFL. FSL hurts power numbers but he didnt light it up with doubles either(19 in AA). I like him a lot, but still plenty of work to be done.
I think while his arm is average at best, it not being enough for center is overblown. I saw him make more than one impressive throw when he was in Dayton. Was it like a Siri throw? No, but it's enough to where teams won't be running wild on him turning doubles into triples. More than enough arm for CF imo.
Per Fangraphs ranking the best farm team was the Pre-2018 team. This years team was better before the trades. But has dropped below the 2008 team with the trades.
Instead of moving up like I thought, many players dropped because of disappointing years. Siri, Greene, Friedl, Mella Rainey, Aquino, Okey and Heatherly all dropped in Fangraphs rankings.
I called Fangraphs about my retirement investments and they told me I can have a billion gazillion dollars for retirement by throwing money at it.
So the 2010 class slightly exceeded expectations, both pitching and offensively. And it is a pretty good estimate for the mean Surplus value of a 50 rated prospect.
This is the year that Hunter Greene's value either skyrockets or plummets. No way he stays in the top 10. He'll either be our #1 prospect by the end of the year or fall rapidly from grace.
I would bet my 401k, that the only way Hunter isn't in the reds top 10 prospects next year is if he gets traded. He could pitch in one game, need TJ surgery, and will still be in their top 10.
I assume that Nick is in the Majors by then.
Else, I think you are correct.
Time for Hunter to show why he was the #1 prospect in the draft.


You did what with Duct Tape?
So I had this boring shelf in my classroom (please excuse the disaster area around my shelf) that I needed to keep because I needed it for all of my teacher binders and book, but it was just so drab.
Light bulb!!! A few weeks ago I saw a great linky party (I can't remember where, if it was you please let me know!) about taking old furniture or classroom items and making them new again. One of the links was to a page where the teacher had used duct tape to renew a bookshelf. I loved it.
Earlier this week I went to target and found the perfect duct tape. I also picked up a roll of green duct tape as an accent color. I used regular ugly duct tape on the back since no one will see that part. Then I used my new duct tape to make it look pretty. After working I found that it was easier to start on the trim first, but overall it was not too difficult. I really love how it turned out. Have you ever used duct tape for decoration purposes?
I was talking to a friend about Duct tape the other day and she memtioned that someone on her husbands side of the family used duct tape as a border for a chair rail in her house.. How interesting!?!? Awesome shelf!
I know that you used the green duct tape in the book shelves...but what did you use in the sides?
On the sides I used duct tape called paint splatter. It was easy to use because I didn't have to worry about matching up a pattern.
Your bookshelf looks great! I purchased a teal colored duct tape and covered the frame around an old magnetic whiteboard. I really, really needed the magnetic whiteboard but the frame was cracked and stained. The duct tape was perfect. Today I am using duct tape to cover the shelves on an monster bookshelf I bought when Borders went out of business. It's too big for me to paint and it's just the shelves that are beat up. Duct tape is the perfect solution. I would also love to see the duct tape linky party if anyone has the link!
What a great way to salvage an older piece of furniture and add some color to your classroom at the same time!
I love to hear from the crew!

Apple is adding a 'Concierge' service to its Genius Bar that prioritises customer problems
Joshua Barrie
The Genius Bar is being overhauled.
Apple is going to make big changes on its shop floors by tweaking the way it handles customer problems.
The company is aiming to improve the way it operates its Genius Bar operation by launched a "Concierge" service, 9to5Mac reports. The Genius Bar is Apple's retail help/advice resource that provides specialist knowledge and expertise to anyone in need.
As things stand, people have to organise appointments on a walk-in basis. You have to go into an Apple Store, talk to someone about your issues, and then get a time slot to come back in.
But Apple's new system, sources have told 9to5Mac, is going to prioritise the process so that more serious customer problems are dealt with sooner. The big change is on point of contact: When told about a problem, Apple Store employees will enter it into an iPad app and then give out a waiting time based on how bad the situation is. The Concierge service will use a set algorithm to determine who should be seen first. Some Apple employees say the move is one of the most significant changes to the way shop floors are run in years.
It means that if someone has a cracked iPhone screen, for example, they will be seen a lot quicker than someone who just wants to learn more about how to take better photographs.
Customers will be asked to give out their phone number to the Genius Bar and Apple will contact them via a series of text messages to update them on when they'll get help. The alerts start at a waiting time length, move on to a call to go back to the Apple Store, and finish with a message that tells people when a technician is ready.
9to5Mac explains that the changes are being led by Angela Ahrendts, Apple's senior VP for Retail. She's made quite an impact since her appointment last year: Ahrendts has brought in new staff uniforms; stepped up the company's expansion into China; and is heavily involved in the Apple Watch roll-out. She's also working on redesigning Apple Stores with design boss Jony Ive.

Sharing the Best
Review by John Dennis, Stereo World May/June 1994
Some people find the excitement of acquisition the best part of Scollecting stereo images while others will describe in detail a lucrative sale or their latest shrewd trade. But unlike most other types of collectible images, stereoviews have an interactive potential that can make just viewing and enjoying them the central motivation and delight. While this impulse has the effect of preserving many of the best views in personal collections unexposed to the market, it also means that any sharing of these unique images can happen only through visits to collector's homes or by publication of the views an all too rare event. STEREOVIEWS ILLUSTRATED Volume 1. Fifty Early American is the somewhat less than catchy title for a wide-ranging collection of gems assembled by Russell Norton and introduced at the June NSA convention in Milwaukee, wi. A title something like The Joy of Stereography would more accurately describe the visual delight provided by these 50 unique windows on 19th Century American Life. As the author explains in his preface: '.'This is a picture book. The whimsical selection presented here is from my personal collection and is a sharing and celebration of twenty years in pursuit of meaningful stereoviews." Reproduced full size one to a page, the views are presented in general categories by subject, arranged alphabetically. Under each view is the original caption, the photogranher and/or publisher. the date, any text from the back of the card, and an occasional explanation of the subject. People, curiosities and historical scenes dominate this collector's collection, with images that range from African-American farmers to a cat who survived the Chicago fire to Walt Whitman. In effect, the sequence of subjects is completely random since most of the categories are represented by only one or two views. A close-up of some large hail stones from an 1870 storm in Northampton, MA is followed by a view of a murderer's body being dissected in a Dartmouth classroom. A George Barker view of people seated around a table in an open sided shack made of debris from the Johnstown flood is one of the most memorable images of that calamity, while an Anthony view on the facing page invites one into a 'Gipsy Camp" fortune telling tent (operated by 'Prof. Nixon'?!) in Saratoga Springs, NY. The delightful anarchy of images will prove to any doubter that stereoviews can go far beyond faded scenics or boring statuary. There are individual views shown that some people would probably give about anything to have. The 1869 "Fairy Queen" steam driven horseless carriage view (probably by C.M. Clough) and the Crowell view of temperance protesters seated outside an Ohio saloon are no doubt among them, along with the railroad and Civil War views and the anonymous view of a lynching victim dangling above a Silverton, CO creek. For the morbidly curious, dollar value estimates are given at the back of the book with the notation "(no, they are not for sale!)" and an indication of how condition, esthetics, impact, subject, and rarity affects the value of each view. The quality of the 250 line duotone reproduction is enough to make it look as if original views had been left laying on some of the pages. While logos and titles are too dark to read on a few of the views, the images are all sharp and clear with no loss of highlight or shadow detail. The half-tone dots are somewhat hard to notice even with a magnifying viewer, and were created through a screen in a process camera rather than on a scanner. A wire binding allows pages to lie flat for proper fusion of the views, adding to the elements, that place STEREOVIEWS ILLUSTRATED among the all-too-few books that demonstrate exactly how stereos should be published. Aimed at stereo collectors and photographers, the book comes with no viewer but later volumes in the anticipated series will include viewers for a more widely targeted audience. Topics covered by the individual volumes will include: The Civil War, The Old West, Later American, Early International, African-Americans, Native Americans and Early English Groups. STEREOVIEWS ILLUSTRATD is available for $20.00 postpaid from Russell Norton, PO Box 1070, New Haven, CT 06504-1070.

De Molenbeek is een beek in Nederlands Zuid-Limburg in de gemeente Meerssen. De beek ligt tussen Moorveld, Snijdersberg, Hulsen, Geulle en Geulle aan de Maas met een lengte van minder dan twee kilometer. Samen met twee andere beken de Oude Broekgraaf die afwatert op de Maas.

Op ongeveer 500 meter naar het zuiden ligt het brongebied van de Roosbeek en de Heiligenbeek en ongeveer 300 meter naar het noorden de Zandbeek.

Geschiedenis
In de 19e eeuw werd de beek de Walsenbeek genoemd.

Ligging
De beek ligt in het Maasdal in de overgang naar het Centraal Plateau dat in het oosten omhoog rijst. De beek ontspringt bij de straat Bospad in Moorveld waarna het in noordwestelijke richting de helling afstroomt. De bovenloop van de beek ligt grotendeels in het Bunderbos, deel van het Bunder- en Elslooërbos, op de helling van het plateau. Onderaan de helling gaat de beek onder de spoorlijn Maastricht - Venlo door. De benedenloop loopt door Hulsen en is grotendeels overkluisd. Vlak voor het Julianakanaal komt de beek samen de Zandbeek en de Verlegde Broekgraaf om samen de Oude Broekgraaf te vormen die onder het kanaal door gaat.

Zijbeken
In de bovenloop wordt de beek door meerdere zijbeken gevoed:
 Waalsebeek
 Stommebeek
 Snijdersbeek

Watermolens
Op de Molenbeek zijn er vroeger twee watermolens gebouwd:
 Bovenste Molen van Hulsen (afgebroken)
 (Onderste) Molen van Hulsen

De Onderste Molen van Hulsen wordt gevoed door een molenvijver die gevoed wordt met water van de Molenbeek.

Geologie
De Molenbeek ontspringt ten noorden van de Geullebreuk en ten zuiden van de Schin op Geulbreuk op een hoogte van ongeveer 91 meter boven NAP. Op deze hoogte dagzoomt klei uit het Laagpakket van Boom dat in de bodem een ondoorlatende laag vormt, waardoor het grondwater op deze hoogte uitstroomt. De beek heeft als gevolg van het vele water een erosiedal gevormd in de Maasdalhelling.

De Molenbeek krijgt van verschillende bronnen water, waarvan er enkele een kalktufbron zijn.

Q: Hamiltonian and non-Hamiltonian connected graph using the same degree sequence I'm trying to find out if it is possible to construct a connected Hamiltonian and a connected non-Hamiltonian graph using the same degree sequence.
For disconnected graphs it would be easier, I could choose a degree sequence of $(2,2,2,2,2,2)$ and have $C_6$, which has a Hamiltonian path, and two disjoint 3-cycles, which are non-Hamiltonian.
How to do it with two connected graphs?

A: The degree sequence $\langle 3,3,2,2,2,2\rangle$ will work:
           *——*——*                *      *
           |  |  |                |\    /|
           *——*——*                | *——* |
                                  |/    \|
                                  *      *

A: The idea is that one of them  has a central vertex or edge such that removing it leaves the graph not connected.
When I solved the exercise I found a bigger example than $(2,2,3,3,3,3)$, where the two graphs have score $(2,2,3,3,3,3,4)$: one is $C_6$ with a central vertex of degree 4, the other is a double $K_3$, with the extra vertex of degree 4 connected to 2 vertices of the first $K_3$ and to 2 vertices of the other one.
