Old GM, Meet the New GM
By Kevin Fayle on July 06, 2009 | Last updated on March 21, 2019
It's been a while since I posted anything on the GM bankruptcy, and the hiatus has been completely deliberate. With so much news and speculation swirling around the proceedings, it would be easy to let the affair completely take the blog over.
But yesterday's opinion from the bankruptcy court judge definitely deserves a post, especially since one of the key points in the opinion deals with the disposition of injury lawsuits against the company.
The judge's ruling allowed GM to sell its best assets to a new company owned primarily by the US Treasury. This company would then move forward out of bankruptcy, while the old GM stays in bankruptcy, wraps up its affairs and settles claims against it.
Under Judge Robert Gerber's opinion, those claims would include personal injury lawsuits that were filed before GM entered bankruptcy protection, as well as consumer complaints and claims by bondholders.
Those groups are upset that their claims are relegated to the old GM under the plan since there is less of a chance that they will receive their desired compensation. One group of accident plaintiffs has already appealed the ruling.
While Judge Gerber seemed to appreciate the groups' concerns, he wrote that "the only alternative to an immediate sale is liquidation - a disastrous result for GM's creditors, its employees, the suppliers who depend on GM for their own existence, and the communities in which GM operates."

No, Nicholas Castellanos Is Not Getting a $100 Million Contract
by Dan Szymborski
It's undeniable that Nicholas Castellanos has changed his 2019 storyline. Castellanos has hit .330/.365/.665 as a Chicago Cub with 15 homers and 35 RBIs before even completing his second month with the team. When the Cubs won the World Series, they ranked second in the National League in runs scored, behind only the team playing on Planet Coors. The Cubs were a middle-of-the-pack offense in 2019 through the trade deadline, and the main culprit was underwhelming production from the outfield. Castellanos's surge been enough for one particularly optimistic national writer to predict that Castellanos would get $100 million in free agency.
If you go by the first four months of the season, 2019 looked like a weak followup to Castellanos's 2018 campaign, when he set career-bests in batting average, on-base percentage, slugging percentage, and WAR. As one of the best free-agents-to-be at a corner outfield position, it appeared likely that Castellanos would start 2019 with a new home given the state of the Detroit Tigers. Castellanos expressed a desire to have a trade completed before the season started, but no such transaction materialized until the trade deadline. That deadline trade was no blockbuster, with the Tigers only squeezing from the Cubs a single prospect ranked by THE BOARD, and a 40 FV prospect at that.
At the trade deadline, ZiPS projected the Chicago Cubs as the team that had the most to gain from adding Castellanos. But the longer-term question remains: should his post-deadline flurry change how clubs think of Castellanos going into the winter?
The first place to look, given that I just so happen to have a projection tool on-hand, would be the projections at the time of the trade compared to right now. So let's crank up the ol' Predict-o-Matic 2000 and see what it spits out, using a league-neutral park.
ZiPS Projections – Nicholas Castellanos (7/31)
2020 .274 .329 .475 609 80 167 44 6 22 78 46 156 2 112 -9 1.4
2023 .270 .325 .473 537 68 145 38 7 19 67 41 130 2 111 -10 0.9
Given the league's general lack of interest in middling corner outfielders in recent years, Castellanos didn't appear to be headed for a large payday this winter. While a corner outfielder with roughly league-average offense has value, Castellanos has historically given back a win a year thanks to below-average defense. ZiPS projected a two-year, $23 million contract for Castellanos at the time of the trade.
For roughly six weeks of performance, that's actually an impressive shift in a projection, with Castellanos adding about eight points of OPS+/wRC+ to his long-term outlook. That's enough, when combined with his defense, to put him more firmly in league-average territory. Projections are an uncertain thing, and the reason they can shift around so significantly is that the task of projecting a constantly changing player is more or less like trying to spear fog with fork. ZiPS projects a three-year contract worth $45 million and $31 million over a two-year deal.
Things get more interesting if you can sign Castellanos as a designated hitter. ZiPS does not give a positional penalty to a designated hitter relative to a first baseman, as there is compelling evidence that players hit worse as designated hitters than they do when they're playing the field, even when we do our best to filter out the effect of injuries. I haven't published my work on this subject, but it's one that Mitchel Lichtman has discussed in more concrete terms.
ZiPS Projections – Nicholas Castellanos (DH)
2020 .281 .333 .504 615 87 173 46 5 27 90 45 158 3 120 0 2.8
Playing DH would maximize Castellanos's value to his next team, but only half the teams in baseball would have the ability to use him in this manner, short of a very surprising rule change this offseason that implements the DH in the National League for 2020. As a DH, ZiPS projects a three-year, $60 million contract for Castellanos based on production alone. The problem is, how many AL teams are likely to give him that contract?
There's no room on the Yankees, and the Red Sox would likely prioritize J.D. Martinez if he opts out. The Astros already have a crunch figuring out how to get Kyle Tucker playing time, and the Angels have Shohei Ohtani. The Rangers are happy with Shin-Soo Choo at DH. If the Tampa Bay Rays had an unusual (for them) notion to make a player fabulously wealthy, they have better internal options. It's hard to imagine the Indians, after not even giving Michael Brantley a qualifying offer, would make a significantly better offer to a lesser player with no history as an Indian. That kind of leaves the Twins and perhaps the White Sox, and that's probably not a formula for a bidding war.
Would a team really pay a lot more for Castellanos than the projection? There was a time in which players on the less valuable side of the defensive spectrum did tend to get larger salaries than the projected WAR suggested. Prince Fielder, Albert Pujols, Ryan Howard, and Choo notably received deals that crushed what the projections thought they would get.
The catch, of course, is that these contracts didn't work out all that well (ZiPS liked the comparable Joey Votto contract) and the market for these types of players has changed considerably. For example, ZIPS projected Martinez's five-year deal right at the $110 million he got (though the opt-out increases his value). None of Nelson Cruz ($22 million projected vs. $14 million actual), Yoenis Cespedes ($104 million vs. $110 million), or Justin Upton ($99 million vs. $106 million) landed deals that crushed the projections. Eric Hosmer's contract looks a lot more like the exception than the rule.
I'm unaware of any reason the market will act very differently this offseason compared to previous ones; I think a new CBA is the only real hope for this. Teams weren't falling over themselves to pick up Castellanos in July, so you need teams to drastically shift their opinions of Castellanos based on one-third of a season. He remains essentially the same fastball hitter that he's always been — just better — and it's a tough argument to say Comerica Park was truly keeping Castellanos down. Comerica may have robbed Castellanos of home runs over the years, but he's never been an exit velocity star, and even this season, his improved 90.1-mph average exit velocity with the Cubs would only get him into the edge of the top 100 for 2019. ZiPS estimates expected home runs based on Statcast and similar data and only estimates that Castellanos is "missing" 1.8 homers a year from the expectations.
If the Cubs go deep into the 2019 playoffs and Nicholas Castellanos continues to pummel opposing pitchers, he'll have earned more than a brief footnote in the history of the Cubs. Very few teams in baseball pay for storylines, however. Castellanos isn't a star and it's unlikely he'll be paid like one this offseason.

Great article! As a Cubs fan, it seems like Casty brought more to the Cubs than can be measured with numbers. Seems like he brought a winner's mentality and injected some life into a team that desperately needed it. I'd be happy if they offered him a contract, but also understand him going somewhere else (probably back to the AL) makes more sense for him and for the Cubs.

Really struggling with the idea that the Cubs of all teams needed an extra winner's mentality added to the mix given that so many key cogs of the team remain from the World Series run and the constant run of contention they have been on since 2015.
More importantly, as the article suggests, Castellanos plugged a big hole the team had and things started to improve for the team. There are still huge question marks for the Cubbies on the pitching side of things that Castellanos doesn't help with at all.
It takes a really special player to bring over a winning mentality coming from a 100 loss team – but Nick Castellanos is just that type of player. Teams that want to win will pay extra for that – its called prestige value.

You do realize that Castellanos came to the Cubs from the Tigers, right?
fordhamflash
I wonder why he didn't have that "winners mentality" on those 98 loss Tigers teams
Yes, we all know that all players on losing teams have loser mentalities and all players on winning teams have winner mentalities. If a player with a winners mentality joins a losing team, that team will immediately become winners.

La Colombe, Thermo King Win the 2021 Excellence in Reusable Packaging Award
Reusable packaging product and service suppliers Schoeller Allibert and Black Forest Container Systems (La Colombe) and Reusability (Thermo King) receive the award with their customers.
WASHINGTON, DC (September 8, 2021) – – The Reusable Packaging Association (RPA) is pleased to announce not one, but two winners of the 2021 Excellence in Reusable Packaging award program. La Colombe won for their implementation of Schoeller Allibert's Combo Excelsior Hybrid®, a reusable intermediate bulk container (IBC), as supplied and serviced by Black Forest Container Systems for the transport of liquid products from manufacturing to bottling facilities. Thermo King won for its adoption of reusable steel crates, flexible sleeves, and pallets, as supplied and serviced by Reusability, for distributing auxiliary power and transport refrigeration units from manufacturing to dealers and original equipment manufacturers.
The award program recognizes commercial achievements with reusable transport packaging in the commercial marketplace. Applications are evaluated by an independent panel of judges and scored based on narration of the reuse opportunity, demonstration of business or economic improvements, and quantification of environmental impacts. Both winning submissions this year switched from single-use packaging to reusable products, although in very different market applications.
La Colombe implemented Schoeller Allibert's Combo Excelsior Hybrid® IBCs in 2020 with Black Forest Container Systems as the pooler of the containers to create a closed loop system of reusable packaging with significant business and environmental benefits. The Combo Excelsior Hybrid IBC has an expected lifespan of 15 years.
Thermo King, a brand of global climate innovator Trane Technologies, replaced single-use wooden crates with a combined reusable packaging solution to help achieve their corporate initiative of zero waste to landfills by 2030 and other environmental objectives. "With this reusable packaging solution, we have realized nearly $1 million in annual savings on packaging," said Bruce Day, Plant Manager for Thermo King's Hastings, Nebraska manufacturing facility. "Adopting this reusable solution has eliminated the need to landfill packaging after use, reduced labor costs, created a safer environment for team members, and improved product protection."
About the Excellence in Reusable Packaging Award: The RPA Excellence in Reusable Packaging award recognizes companies and organizations that have developed and implemented innovative and measurable reusable packaging solutions in a business-to-business supply chain. 2021 marks the tenth year for this annual award program. Submissions are reviewed by an independent panel of judges who are not members of the Association. RPA would like to thank our expert judges:

Beyond the bench: Finding balance with Gavin Rumbaugh
by Angie Voyles Askham / 15 December 2022
Genes, Science & Society
Gavin Rumbaugh
Professor, UF Scripps Biomedical Research
Listen to this story:
Royal palm trees and bright blue skies blanket the view from Gavin Rumbaugh's office at UF Scripps Biomedical Research in Jupiter, Florida, where he is a professor of neuroscience. But, he says, he can't write papers or grants there.
To crank out his best stuff, he hops onto an electric scooter — with a beach chair, his laptop and what he describes as a "super fly" beach umbrella strapped to his back. "I'll head to the beach, set up shop, and I'll just write for two hours," he says.
Rumbaugh didn't grow up in Florida, but he has embraced the coastal lifestyle. He frequently posts pictures of his morning beach walks on Twitter, and his lab website showcases ample evidence of the group's frequent outdoor adventures. "In terms of work-life balance, it would be very difficult to get me out of this place," he says.
In his work, Rumbaugh has recently started focusing on a different kind of balance — that between sensory and motor information in the brain, which gets disrupted, he and his colleagues hypothesize, in mice that lack one functional copy of the autism-linked gene SYNGAP1.
"It's the journey this model has taken me on," he says.
Spectrum spoke with Rumbaugh about transforming his lab, being "disgustingly in love" with his wife, and more.
Spectrum: What "big question" drives your research?
Gavin Rumbaugh: When I started my lab, I was interested in the biochemical mechanisms of synapse plasticity and the outsized effect that SYNGAP1 has on neurons' synaptic activity. Now the question that drives my research is: For these single-gene forms of neurodevelopmental conditions, what do these genes do that leads to these behaviors? And what's all the neurobiology in between?
S: Whose work do you admire?
GR: Oh boy. The clinical geneticists are number one on my list right now. I can do this work in animal models because of the remarkable efforts of these large consortiums that have done patient sequencing. For example, Jacques Michaud, who sequenced exons from 100 people with intellectual disability — he and his collaborators found three people who had loss-of-function mutations in SYNGAP1. So that was the first evidence directly linking non-syndromic intellectual disability to de novo mutations in really important neurodevelopmental genes. And then these enormous consortiums, such as the one co-founded by Joseph Buxbaum — they've worked to sequence something like 60,000 autistic people.
And the other set of people who are my heroes do sensorimotor systems neuroscience. In particular, people who study the mouse whisker system as a model. Because if you want to understand how neural activity travels through the brain to explain the sensorimotor movements, there's no better system than the mouse whisker system. I have been an absolute student of this work. It's a large field, with people such as Carl Petersen, Dan O'Connor and Karel Svoboda.
S: What does a typical day look like for you?
GR: Depends on the day. But a typical day is like today, where I wrote for an hour in the morning. I had about four Zoom meetings already. Haven't had lunch yet. And then I think I'm going to have some time from 3:15 to 5:00 to talk about new ideas with my staff scientists. That's the best part of my job, talking about the new ideas.
S: When and where are you most productive?
GR: I'm most productive in a group meeting with my lab. I'm a verbal person, and so most of my creativity comes from stream-of-consciousness discussions.
S: Your wife, Courtney Miller, is also a professor at Scripps, and you often work together. How do you manage that? Is it work at the dinner table and dinner in the lab?
GR: It used to be that way. We met when we were postdocs, essentially. I started my lab first, and she had to see me go through that. It is a very difficult time, starting your lab. I would never do that again. I would go back to graduate school. I would probably do a postdoc again. But I would never start my lab again. And then she had to go through the same thing three years later, when she started her own lab.
But our marriage got super strong, and we realized very early on that we had to set time aside to talk about science and time where we could be husband and wife only. And so we've gotten very good at knowing when to talk about certain things and when not to. We're disgustingly in love, and we have complementary life skills.
S: Do you have any lab traditions?
GR: Courtney and I try to have a joint lab outing once a year, and we always do something Florida-related. The very first thing we did here, back in 2011, was go paddleboarding.
During the worst of COVID-19, I said that once we're able to, I'm going to take everybody out on yachts, as a way of showing everyone how much we appreciate the work they do. And so this fall, I rented one for each lab — these 265-foot yachts with a captain and an attendant. And we went around the local waterways all day. We parked at the sandbar with these two yachts, and then they put this big splash pad out that connected the two boats. And we had these little electric water scooters that we could ride around. So that was awesome.
S: Did you grow up by the water?
GR: I grew up in rural Pennsylvania. Outside of Pittsburgh, in deer-hunting country. Where I grew up, everybody hunted and fished. And I'm for whatever people want to do, as long as it doesn't hurt anyone, but it just wasn't me. I have a soul that's much more California beach-like.
S: How many unread emails are in your inbox right now?
GR: Whatever the maximum number is. [Checks.] 155,762. Do I win any awards for that one?

Use Empty toilet paper roll to store appliance cords. It keeps them neat and you can write on the roll what to appliance it belongs.
To remove old wax from a gla ss candle holder, put it in the freezer for a few hours. Then take the candle holder out and turn it upside down. The wax will fall out.
Crayon marks on walls? This worked wonderfully! A damp rag, dipped in baking soda. Comes off ! with little effort (elbow grease that is!).
Whenever I purchase a box of S.O.S Pads, I immediately take a pair of scissors and cut each pad into halves.
After years of having to throw away rusted and unused and smelly pads, I finally decided that this would be much more economical.
And now a box of S.O.S pads last me indefinitely! In fact, I have noticed that the scissors get sharpened this way!
Use vertical strokes when washing windows outside and horizontal for inside windows. This way you can tell which side has the streaks.. Straight vinegar will get outside windows really clean.
Don't wash windows on a sunny day. They will dry too quickly and will probably streak.
To easily remove burnt on food from your skillet, simply add a drop or two of dish soap and enough water to cover bottom of pan, and bring to a boil o! n stove top.
Don't throw out all that leftover wine: Freeze into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces. Left over wine? What's that?!
Ants, ants, ants everywhere ... Well, they are said to never cross a chalk line. So get your chalk out and draw a line on the floor or wherever ants tend to march. See for yourself.
When you get a splinter, reach for the scotch tape before resorting to tweezers or a needle. Simply put the scotch tape over the splinter, then pull it off. Scot ch tape removes most splinters painlessly and easily.
Now look what you can do with Alka Seltzer!!
Clean a toilet. Drop in two Alka Seltzer tablets, wait twenty minutes, brush and flush. The citric acid and effervescent action clean vitreous China.


For me, the arguments for and against air strikes against Daesh in Syria are finely balanced, and there is no surprise that reasonable people have come to different views. I am stunned that with the SNP against, Labour split down the middle, and (the BBC predicts) 15 Conservative rebels, we might be the most hawkish party.
I am very glad that Erbil was saved in August 2014 with help from US air strikes when Daesh were rampaging across northern Iraq. Had the capital of Iraqi Kurdistan, population 1.5 million, fallen, the death toll and consequences for the region would have been horrific.
Tomorrow those of you in London have the chance to make your voice heard by voting in the mayoral and assembly elections. It is vital that you do. We have an opportunity to do something to bring real change to London.
When phone polling was first introduced in the UK it attracted flak over its accuracy (least remembered about those ASL polls the better), but also gained popularity through both its lower costs compared to the then dominant face to face polling and also its greater flexibility. The same pattern has been seen again with the spread of internet polling the UK. Just as face to face polling used to be the gold standard and phone polling the upstarts, now phone polling is the gold standard and internet polling the upstarts.
The Weekend Debate: Who'd get your 2nd preference after Brian in the race for London Mayor?
This Thursday, millions of voters will go to the polls to cast their votes in local elections. And although London is only one of those elections, its electoral size and the colourful prominence of its candidates means it has got the lion's share of the media coverage.
For the Lib Dems, Brian Paddick has fought a terrific campaign. The former Metropolitan police chief only narrowly squeaked ahead of Mike Tuffrey for the party's nomination following what Brian himself has acknowledged was a tricky first outing as a Lib Dem candidate in 2008.
This time round, however, he has more than held his own in the televised debates, while his advertising, social media and online presence has achieved real impact. As I reported last month, the Lib Dems' London fundraising has been a huge success, allowing the party actively to compete at this election in a way that's not previously been possible.
I understand why many voters on the progressive wing of politics are struggling with voting for Ken Livingstone. His campaign has been sad, desperate and divisive. He has just one big idea — a seven per cent cut in Tube fares. It's a perfectly decent policy at a time when fares have risen for years on end but the problem is he can't do it and he knows it.
Remember all the stuff Liberal Democrats such as Vince Cable have been saying for years about how our tax system catches too much income and not enough wealth? You know what – I believe that, and I haven't suddenly forgotten it in the last few days.
Did Ken Livingstone break tax rules over Labour donation?
Ken Livingstone was under fresh pressure over his alleged tax avoidance after he was forced to admit using his private company to make a sizable political donation.
Mr Livingstone had previously claimed to have personally made a donation to the Labour Party of £19,202 in December for "staff costs" during his election campaign.
We've heard lots about Labour mayoral candidate "Red Ken" Livingstone's tax affairs recently, as this Telegraph article reports.
Then we have Labour leader Ed Miliband turn up in a Rolls Royce to a football match. Leaving aside the clear communications ineptitude about his diary for that day, it's not the best look for the leader of a party which claims to be all about social justice.
Especially when he has such a strong record of standing up to rich and powerful media moguls whose operations are under investigation at the moment.
"I get loads of money, all from different sources, and I give it to an accountant and they manage it".
That is modern socialism for you.
Funny, pointed and relevant: this is one of the best pieces of campaign artwork I've seen put out by the party this year.
Lib Dem London mayoral candidate Brian Paddick had a piece on the Guardian's Comment Is Free website yesterday on what is his undoubtedly his strongest issue – policing.
Ken Livingstone has me a bit confused.
Hearing him attack Boris Johnson is certainly not a surprise.
But hearing him attack Boris Johnson for saying what Ken Livingstone himself said previously? That's a bit odd, shall we say.
Compare and contrast now and then.
Boris Johnson and Ken Livingstone were engulfed in a war of words today over whether Londoners are too "lazy" to find work. The Mayor claimed some young people in the capital lacked the "energy" to go out and get jobs which were instead going to immigrants. His Labour challenger Ken Livingstone immediately accused him of branding Londoners "lazy and workshy".
The official in charge of the London Labour Party has been removed after saying that Ken Livingstone, Labour's candidate for the mayoralty, "cannot win" next year's election if he continues as now.
In principle, I have no objection to people digging holes in the ground. Even very expensive holes. Potholes? Bad. But lift shafts, underground tunnels and other such excavations? Good. A big hole that loops back on itself and could* end the universe? That'll do nicely. The combination of a hole, Bernard Cribbins and Lego? Excellent.
If I had to postulate a general theory of holes, I'd say that a hole that is not used is a bad hole. And two holes that are not used are doubly bad.
Taking a look at the printed version of the interview (and forcing my eyes to move past the awful shirt and dreadful trousers) there was one other comment from Ken Livingstone that stood out: "80 per cent of my funding will come from the trade unions".
London burns and communities reel from successive nights of violence and looting, rumour is rife, facts are scare. All we know that peaceful vigil held for Mark Duggan, who was shot dead by police on Thursday night, somehow was hijacked by an angry mob and his death became the catalyst of nights of violence, which have now spread to other parts of the capital and country.
It's hard to raise the subject of Lembit Opik without somebody cracking a joke. He's certainly not loved by our own party's leadership and many see him as more of a celebrity than a politician. I can, however, name two other people who are hated by their party's leadership and seem to be two parts celebrity, one part politician, and they've both held the position of Mayor of London.
With a year to go to the London Mayor and London Assembly elections a strange debate is underway about the huge part of London loosely described as "outer London".
Remember the last election? One of the strongest attacks on Ken Livingstone was that he was just a "Zone One Mayor". He was accused of having visited Havana more times than the London Borough of Havering. Three years on and the London Labour Party have decided that no speech, press release, letter or comment can go out without the words "outer London" repeated ad nauseam.
Last Wednesday saw one of the few debates on the issue of AV that are taking place in the run-up to the referendum. Vince Cable paired up with Ken Livingstone to speak for the Yes side, and for the No position Lord Michael Howard teamed up with Olympic Gold Medallist and prominent Labour supporter Martin Cross (with a very humorous Clive Anderson in the Chair).
London Region Liberal Democrats have postponed the Mayoral candidate selection, possibly for up to a year – although it's hoped that nominations will be reopened much sooner.
A selection had been due this autumn after which the party hoped it could get its candidate well enough known to take on incumbent Boris Johnson (Con) and Labour's Ken Livingstone in May 2012. But regional chair Jonathan Fryer said the process had been halted because an insufficient number of approved applicants were available to put before party members.
In London one of the most exciting developments this year has been the long awaited launch of the bike hire scheme.
Opinion: Do Labour pick Ken and their bedrock, or win back the centre ground?
There's been some interesting discussion on LabourList about whether Labour should – yet again – pick Ken Livingstone as their candidate for London Mayor. Declan Gaffney has made use of some very interesting research into the demographics of London elections (published here).
That demographic analysis deserves a long second look; and once you do, the picture isn't pretty for anyone who wants Ken Livingstone to be elected as Mayor of London.
Vietnam war vet and Republican John McCain and London mayor and former restaurant review Ken Livingstone are probably not often bracketed together politically! But I have been thinking recently about them both and their own rather different political personas.
The Lib Dems have always selected their candidates by "one member one vote" (OMOV). It has always seemed the most logical and transparently fair system, and it is certainly better than having candidates hand-picked by an inner cabal. It still does a fairly good job at selecting candidates for the House of Commons, although as membership levels drop that is becoming less true. But it has been quite inadequate for selecting candidates for larger constituencies, particularly for the European Parliament and London Assembly.
Here's the fundamental problem: a significant proportion of our members are concentrated in our held and target constituencies. Target seats become target seats because they have a larger pool of activists from which to draw. In turn, in order to become winning seats they have to recruit more activists. The more tightly we focus on target seats, as the Lib Dems certainly have for the past two decades, the more the gap between target seat and what we sometimes euphemistically call "development seats" widens.
What is it about London Conservatives and expenses?
However, he is by no means alone when it comes to expense bills that, shall we say, don't exactly leave the impression of someone taking care over taxpayers' money.


If you need to wear glasses when playing sports, keep safety in mind. You may need sports glasses created specifically to withstand the rigor of active use. When making a selection, consider whether your eyes would be better protected wearing nothing over glasses that could shatter and damage them. Choosing the correct eyewear not only protects your eyes during play, but also protects them if your glasses are smashed or broken during play.
Does your sports organization allow you to wear protective eye wear? If yes, are there limitations to style and tint?
Do the frames have to be safety certified? If so, Liberty is the only manufacturer out there that is safety certified. They hold the highest certification available.
What type of lenses are required? Usually, polycarbonate or Trivex are required, but most athletes choose Trivex due to the superior image quality.
Val Vista Vision is certified to sell Liberty Eyewear, the only company that holds a safety certificate for their sports frames. For more information, visit www.libertysport.com, or ask us about them at your next appointment. Sports glasses are covered by insurance and we have a special offer where if you buy one, you get 50% off your second pair.

Outsourcing has shortcomings due to cultural barriers. Value systems differ slightly in different parts of the world and what is acceptable in a region may be a taboo to another. In case your cultural values and those of the business you outsource differ, business priorities will be different and problems are likely to occur. Language barrier also creates frustrations among customers and service providers.

Historical Digression
Musings on history as viewed by someone with one foot in the past
Boston's Civil War Monument and the Angel of Death
By Patrick Browne
Boston's Soldiers and Sailors Monument, built 1877
There are many memorials in Boston related to the Civil War. But only one "official" monument was erected by the city to honor those from Boston who died in the war. The Boston Soldiers and Sailors Monument is one of the most imposing war memorials in the Commonwealth. The story behind the monument, as well as that of the sculptor, are worth noting.
The monument stands on a modest knoll known somewhat grandiosely as Flagstaff Hill. It is the highest point on Boston Common (although not by much) and was so named when a large flagstaff was placed there in 1837. The flagstaff was removed in the late 1860s to make way for the monument.
The movement to build a memorial to Boston's soldiers and sailors was underway in 1866, just a year after the war ended. The sculptor chosen for this imposing tribute was Martin Milmore.
Martin was born in Sligo, Ireland in 1844. When he was seven, his widowed mother emigrated to Boston and soon after made arrangements for her sons to join her in America. Martin's older brother Joseph became a stonecutter and educated Martin in that trade. Martin took it a step further and became a brilliant sculptor. By the late 1860s, the two had opened a studio together in Boston's South End and had a number of impressive works to their credit. Among these are the massive soldier's monuments in Jamaica Plain and Charlestown, as well as the enigmatic "American Sphinx"–an unusual Civil War memorial at Mount Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge.
When the city council of Boston ordered the construction of a Civil War memorial, Martin put in a design proposal. He won the contract of $75,000. The cornerstone was laid in September 1871 and the monument completed six years later. The dedication of the monument on September 17, 1877 (the 15th anniversary of the Battle of Antietam) drew a crowd of 25,000. Among the dignitaries in attendance were General George McClellan, General Joseph Hooker and President Ulysses Grant. General Charles Devens, then a well-known Massachusetts war hero (after whom Fort Devens was named), gave the key oration of the day.
The monument itself features a Roman victory column of roughly 75 feet in height. Atop the column is a female figure, eleven feet in height, wearing a crown of 13 stars representing "America." In one hand she holds an American flag, in the other a sword and laurel wreath.
There is something of a mystery regarding the base of the column. There are four projecting pedestals which once held four bronze statues representing a soldier, a sailor, and allegorical figures depicting history and peace. The pedestals are now conspicuously empty. Depending on which article one reads, the statues have either been stolen or removed and placed in storage. While the latter seems more probable, a definitive source on the matter proves elusive.
Also featured on the monument are four bas-relief bronze tablets depicting a pantheon of notable Massachusetts figures of the war era. "The Departure of the Regiment" shows troops passing by the State House steps. Among the troops are General Benjamin Butler and Colonel Robert Gould Shaw. On the steps are dignitaries including Governor John Andrew, abolitionist Wendell Phillips and poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. "The Sanitary Commission" shows several leaders and supporters of that organization including James Russell Lowell and Rev. Edward Hale. The most elaborate relief is the "Return from the War" and depicts about 40 individuals. On horseback among the soldiers are Generals Nathaniel Banks, William Francis Bartlett and Charles Devens. Among the civilians are Governor Andrew, Senator Charles Sumner and Senator Henry Wilson.
Carved in the main panel of the pedestal are words of dedication, "To the men of Boston who died for their country on land and sea, in the war which kept the Union whole, destroyed slavery, and maintained the constitution, the grateful city has built this monument, that their example may speak to coming generations."
Martin Milmore was prolific in his work, leaving a legacy of many fine sculptures. Perhaps he might have gone on to create a national landmark but, sadly, he died in 1883 at age 38 of liver disease.
"Death and the Sculptor," a memorial to Martin and Joseph Milmore
In accordance with Martin's wishes, his friend Daniel Chester French sculpted the memorial over his grave in Forest Hills Cemetery in Jamaica Plain. French was America's greatest sculptor…an argument I'll probably make in a future post (perhaps little more need be said but that he was the sculptor for the statue in the Lincoln Memorial). The work French crafted for Martin (and his brother Joseph who died not long after and is buried in the same plot) is called "Death and the Sculptor." It depicts a young artist with hammer and chisel in hand, working on a relief of a Sphinx (closely resembling the Sphinx that Martin and Joseph created for Mount Auburn Cemetery). The Angel of Death, with poppies in one hand, reaches with the other to stay the artist's hand with a gentle touch. He appears surprised and confused and she gentle and calm. His time has come.
The sculpture won French international acclaim, a medal in Paris (only the second time an American artist was so honored in France), and is still referred to as one of the greatest American sculptures. You really have to get a close-up look at the figures and their expressions to fully understand why.
This past Memorial Day, Boston's Civil War Monument was joined by another impressive memorial…a "Flag Garden" of 20,000 small flags representing Massachusetts men and women who have lost their lives in wars since the First World War. I have only seen photographs, but images of the ocean of flags with the Civil War Monument in the background are breathtaking…It brings a new and profound meaning to the name Flagstaff Hill.

Meet the Cast of 'Alaskan Bush People'
'Alaskan Bush People' Cast: How Well Do You Know the Brown Family?
The stars of the Discovery series are definitely not your typical family.
By Megan Friedman Published: Sep 23, 2018
For eight seasons, the Brown family has taken center stage as they live in the wilderness on Alaskan Bush People. The family has gone through ups and downs, most recently matriarch Ami Brown's lung cancer—and have relocated to the wilds of Washington state. Here's what you need to know about the Brown family.
Frederick M. Brown//Getty Images
Brown family patriarch Billy grew up in Texas, and had an upper-middle-class childhood. But when he was 16, his mother, father, and sister died in a plane crash while a private plane they were flying got caught in a thunderstorm. Billy had chosen to stay home that day. He said in an episode of Alaskan Bush People he got tricked into being emancipated from his family, giving up his family fortune and leaving him with nothing.
Billy Brown Confronts His Past | Alaskan Bush People
He was married once before meeting Ami, back when he was a teenager, and has two daughters from that relationship. One of those daughters, Twila, appeared in an episode of Alaskan Bush People.
Billy spent the next many years wandering through the United States. Later, he spent time as a commercial fisherman in the northern Pacific, and eventually ended up raising his family in the wilderness of Alaska. He wrote and self-published biographies of his life, which a producer discovered and turned into Alaskan Bush People.
Ami Brown
Ami, pronounced AM-ee, is known as an expert on gardening and growing food, and also has a keen interest in navigation. She homeschooled her seven children. She has opened up on Alaskan Bush People about growing up with a family of alcoholics, which is why her husband and kids are especially meaningful to her. She says she doesn't let her estranged family know where she physically is at any time.
Billy and Ami met when they were both living in Texas; they married in 1979 and at first settled down in Fort Worth. But they told People they felt unsatisfied with 9-5 jobs, and knew they wanted to escape somewhere. By 1983, they were headed off to Alaska where they were quickly forced to learn how to live in the wild when they were trapped on an island for 18 months.
This past year, Ami was diagnosed with lung cancer. Despite a slim chance of survival, she was eventually declared cancer-free after grueling rounds of chemotherapy and radiation.
The first-born Brown sibling, Matt has grown up in nature his entire life. He started fishing when he was four or five years old, and was a regular hunter and fisherman by age 10. As an adult, he struggled with alcohol abuse after spending time in Juneau and making what he called "bad choices," according to People. He spent time in an inpatient rehab facility in 2016.
In 2017, Matt was injured in a freak accident in Browntown when an explosion occurred just hours after the Alaskan Bush People crew left for the day. Matt had reportedly filled a mason jar with gunpowder and cannon fuse, then put it in his refrigerator. He ended up hospitalized but recovered shortly after that.
Bam Brown
Joshua "Bam Bam" or "Bam" Brown grew up onboard the Brown family fishing boat, and is often the expert when the family is on the water. Last year, he moved away from Alaska and struck out on his own. Bam is dating Alli Kagan, a former producer on Alaskan Bush People, and the two even renovated a boat together.

Bear Brown
Solomon "Bear" Brown's job in the family is to hunt for meat, so he often practices tracking animals around the wilderness. Back in May, he was rushed to the emergency room after he ran into a branch that injured his eye and scratched his cornea. He ended up wearing an eye patch. But when he's not doing dangerous jobs in the wilderness, he's working on producing his own movie.
Gabe Brown
Gabe was only three months old when the Brown family moved on board a fishing boat. He's known as hard worker and a talented artist. Recently, while his mom was battling lung cancer, he himself got sick with streptococcal virus and was hospitalized. He had to stay separately from his mother while her immune system was vulnerable. "Gabe Brown is excited to be back with his family now that Ami is doing better," the show tweeted in June.
Noah Brown
Noah Brown is known as the gadget guy in the family, often inventing new things to make life easier in the bush. This August, he got married to Rhain Alisha in Idaho, just days before the new season of Alaskan Bush People premiered. The Brown family attended—and even got dressed up for the occasion.
Snowbird Brown
Amora Jean "Snowbird" or "Bird" Brown, the first daughter in the Brown family, was named Amora after her mother, Ami. Snowbird is a fiercely independent person who hunts and fishes on her own. In January, Rain paid tribute to her sister on, fittingly, National Bird Day.
Rain Brown
Rain, the youngest child and second daughter in the Brown family, is often doted upon by her parents and older siblings. But in the most recent season of Alaskan Bush People, she has been stepping out on her own, demanding respect and responsibility from her family. And Rain is a nickname: her full name is Merry Christmas Katherine Raindrop Brown.
To celebrate their mother's birthday, Rain and Gabe posted a video tribute to her on Instagram. "You inspire me beyond compare," Rain wrote.

Meet a Prospect: Jimmy Herron
In this crapshoot that is the Major League Baseball First year Players Draft you generally don't know many of the players that get drafted outside of maybe the first three-to-four rounds. There are just too many schools and too many players to keep up with nationwide and it would literally be full-time 80 hours per week job to try and keep up with it all so no one will hold it against you if you don't know the name Jimmy Herron. The New York Yankees drafted Herron out of Duke University in this year's 2017 MLB Draft as a sophomore in the 31st round, 932nd overall. Let's meet him. This is Meet a Prospect: The Jimmy Herron Edition.
During the 2016 collegiate season Herron was named a freshman All-American leaving a lot to live up to for Herron in 2017. Herron started every game for the Blue Devils in 2017, one of three players to do so this season at Duke, compiling an impressive .326 batting average with 17 doubles, 53 runs, 74 hits, 39 RBI, five home runs and 17 stolen bases. Herron's impressive season led to the Yankees drafting him in the 31st round of the draft making Herron the third Duke University player to be drafted in 2017 including Justin Bellinger by the Cincinnati Reds in the 22nd round and James Ziemba by the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim also in the 22nd round.
In two seasons at Duke, Herron owns a .325 batting average which is 12th best all-time in Duke history. Herron also has 41 stolen bases in two seasons which is 13th best in school history. Not bad for a sophomore outfielder that many casual fans never heard of. The biggest question regarding Herron, which explains why he was taken in the 31st round, is whether or not the pros will entice him enough to walk away from his final two seasons of collegiate eligibility.
Will Herron sign or will he look to improve his draft status while making another attempt at a strong season for Duke in 2018 as a junior? Only time will tell so stay tuned. All drafted players have until July 15th to decide whether they will sign with the teams that drafted them or return to school so we are just over two weeks away from the decision.
If Herron signs we here at The Greedy Pinstripes wish him well next season and have total respect for his decision. If Herron decides to sign then we want to be the first to welcome him to the organization and more importantly we want to be the first to welcome him to the Yankees family. Welcome Jimmy, just in case.

After years of struggling to resolve my back and hip pain, I decided to take a serious look at what passed for treatment in the U.S., and globally. There was very little evidence for most of what patients were being offered. Worse, "conventional" treatment could be harmful. In early 2009, my agent sold my proposal to the Crown trade imprint. The offer I signed required me to produce a manuscript in 18 months.
When I didn't deliver in 24 months, having barely dipped my toes in the research, Crown cancelled my deal. I kept working.
I did almost all my interviews (about 500) in person or on Skype, maintaining audio recordings, which usually had to be transcribed. I talked to sources in the U.S., Europe, Asia, and Australia.
Crooked is a hybrid of investigative reporting and "guinea pig" journalism. The narrative structure took a long time to reveal itself. I used WorkFlowy software, which bills itself as a tool "to organize your brain." It's a searchable outlining tool that helped me make sense of my notes. It took dozens of drafts of each chapter to arrive at the style and tone I was after, which I call "Hold my hand while I walk you through some incredibly complex science, and make you like it." I used Dropbox and the filename method of Chapter Number- Name-DayMonthYear (e.g., Chapter 3-Hazardous Images-02132016), which I learned from an ex-paralegal colleague.
I assembled a team of fact-checkers, researchers, copyeditors, and endnote managers. One of my fact-checkers, for legally complex aspects of the book, was attorney Rob Liguori, whose business is called The Verificationist. Because these are litigious times, I bought an insurance policy with Chubb, called Mediaguard.
After repaying my advance to Crown, I regained rights to the manuscript. In 2016, we sold Crooked to HarperCollins, in a deal for a finished manuscript that netted about 40 percent more than the Crown deal had.
What I wish I had known? Do not think you can rush complex investigative reporting. And never think you will remember where anything came from. Maintain sources like your life and livelihood depend on it.

Driverless pod maker receives royal seal of approval
Posted on 28 Sep 2017 by Jonny Williamson
Coventry-based RDM Group had a surprise visitor to their display earlier today at celebrations held to mark the 50th birthday of Milton Keynes.
RDM's Miles Garner showcases the company's driverless pod to Prince William.
The Duke of Cambridge made a beeline to the firm's driverless Pod that will shortly be commencing trials on the streets of the town as part of the UK Autodrive initiative into testing 'first and last mile transport solutions'.
He met with sales and marketing director, Miles Garner, who showed him around the four-seater driverless pod that is fitted with the company's own autonomous control system and travels up to 60 miles on one charge and can do a maximum speed of 15mph.
Prince William also took the opportunity to sit in the driverless vehicle and enquired about where the UK sat in relation to the rest of the world with this technology.
Initial trials of the pods are due to begin in pedestrianised areas of Milton Keynes later this year, with up to 40 pods set to be deployed across the town centre by the end of the project next summer.
UK Autodrive will also be trialling autonomous and connected road-based cars on the streets of both Milton Keynes and Coventry.
Earlier this year, RDM Group announced the signing of a collaborative agreement to conduct autonomous vehicle projects in the US. The deal between RDM and design firm, Arup follows a successful similar partnership in the UK.
RDM's expansion to the Houston (Texas) market will reportedly involve the recruitment of a dedicated programme lead, alongside leasing office space within Arup's Houston officer as a base for developing new relationships. The Arup team is expected to provide technical expertise on new bids.
In January 2017, RDM invested in its first international facility at Flinders University campus in Adelaide. The office is responsible for purchasing, sales and technology support as part of the firm's driverless pod expansion into Australia and the Asia-Pacific region.

Being a Mom, well for me it is just the best thing in the world. It is also the hardest job I've ever had but I'm not complaining. When Buggy was a baby things were tough as any mother would know – you barely have time to shower, sometimes you forget to eat, you still have to take care of the housework, make dinner and take care of anything else that comes along.
Buggy was never a sleeper – still isn't much of one these days and loved to be held – all the time. Maybe as a new Mami I may have mis-interpreted some of her signs but I think she knew how long her journey was and just didn't want me to put her down – LOL! But none of that bothered me. My husband travels a lot for work so I'm pretty much a single mom. Kudos to all the single mami's out there – it is not an easy job. There were many nights when I barely slept and I never napped when Buggy napped – because she barely did – and if she did, those were the times when I washed my hair, sat on the couch and took a breather, started dinner, did laundry, etc. – but that didn't bother me. There were many times when she would wake up every two hours and I would nurse her and rock her back to sleep and just want to hold her in my arms all night. No sleep – that didn't bother me – I'm A Mami. This was what I've been waiting for. I was a Mami to my dogs, they gave me presents on my birthday, holidays and Mother's Day but that's a little different.
Once upon a time there were only dog toys and dog beds in every room. Now we have a combination of Buggy's toys, chew toys and dog beds all over the place and they all share nicely. Buggy loves her sisters so much and tries to climb in their bed with them to snuggle and vice versa. Allie has claimed her couch.
There were times during the day, when it looked a bomb went off in my living room with all her toys. This was when she was younger and not walking yet. All the toys are reminders that I am a Mami – and I'm ok if my house looks like total chaos. There is time later to put things away.
When I put laundry away, she opens draws and takes them out – but I'm ok with that. She is laughing and having fun and that's all that matters. We make it a game and she helps me put everything back – it's all good.
There are times when I just take a moment and see all that is around me and as crazy as it gets sometimes with a toddler and four dogs, I just have this big smile and some happy tears on my face because it is just a reminder that I am finally a Mami – and I love it!
there are times I'm sticky...house is a mess...and I look around thinking there is no greater blessing this side of Heaven than to be a mama!
Aww, this was sweet to read! A nice reminder that I should be grateful for the mess, the crying, the screaming...and the smiles, the laughs, the hugs!
Thanks for linking. What a great post. there will always be house work to do so I always say - it can wait. These moments with the little ones go by so fast we need to cherish them. following you back.
Hi Elana - I know it won't last forever so I'm just enjoying every moment - no matter what how crazy it gets -LOL . Thanks for stopping by.
I love that answer - too funny. I can't wait until Buggy starts saying funny things like that!
Hey Elly ~I'm ok with it not ending for a while - LOL! It's all a great reminder - I'm loving it.
Buggy loves to clean and she is really good at putting things back, we always make it fun. Thanks for following.
Thanks for the award! So excited. I'm coming over to pick it up!
I'm loving every minute of it -thanks for the follow - following you back.
Stopping by to let you know I enjoy your blog, and that I am passing the Versatile Blogger award on to you. Stop by my blog to "pick it up."
