Stop & Shop strike hits Ahold Delhaize's bottom line
Jennifer Sweeney
The 11-day strike that affected 246 of Stop & Shop's 415 stores may be over, but the dispute will have lingering effects on parent company Ahold Delhaize's bottom line. The company lowered its earnings outlook for per-share growth to low single digits from high single digits on Tuesday.
The strike had $90 million to $110 million one-off impact on underlying operating profit, Ahold Delhaize President and CEO Frans Muller said on a conference call, while total sales loss totaled more than $200 million. The Dutch retailer expects underlying operating margins in 2019 to be a little below the levels reached in 2018.
"In all the years with Stop & Shop in the last 25 years, we've done a very good negotiation process and a fruitful process with the unions," Muller said. "So it's very unfortunate that this happened, this big strike impact. At the same time, we feel that we have a fair and responsible tentative agreement with the unions, which we are pleased with."
More than 30,000 Stop & Shop employees are back to work in Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island after walking off the job on April 11. Negotiators have agreed to a tentative new deal, which is still subject to ratification votes by the five local unions. The employees walked off the job to protest the company's plan to cut worker pay by raising health insurance premiums and lowering pension benefits for new employees. During the 11-day strike, some stores closed while others had few customers and sparse staff.
Today, the impact on parent company Ahold Delhaize is clear. The strike could ding company profits by $100 million or more — a figure that factors in lower sales and costs associated with replacing perishable foods and other supplies, Ahold Delhaize CFO Jeff Carr said during yesterday's call. That would be about 3% of the average estimate for 2019 operating profit, according to Bloomberg. Additionally, it may be tough for Stop & Shop to fully recover from the disruption. Geolocation firm Skyhook estimated that loyal customer visits declined 75% during the strike.
Though Ahold Delhaize officials say they're happy with the negotiated agreement, it seems that the unions have won the public relations battle. Thousands of dollars have been donated to a GoFundMe account for employees who weren't getting paid. The strike even found itself entwined in the 2020 election as Democratic contenders Elizabeth Warren and Joe Biden showed their support for the workers.
The battle might not be over yet for Ahold Delhaize. The company will be renegotiating with both Giant-Landover and Stop & Shop in New York later this year. Meanwhile, New England continues to be a competitive market for grocers. Target and Walmart already have a big footprint and Amazon is staying competitive on prices while increasing its employee wage to a $15 minimum an hour. How these factors play into Ahold Delhaize's future negotiating tactics remains to be seen.

I don't quite know what the guitars those three street-level gents are playing on the cover shot to Moçambique are, but they're tripped out and indicative of what the listener is in for: an anthology disc capturing an array of ground-level Mozambique sounds taking the region's traditional folk musics into today and tomorrow, not to mention preparing it all for export to a world more than ready for such work. The disc opens with Million Isaac Junior's fetchingly mellifluous Thikulola blending Joseph Shabalala type vocals and rhythms with a ghostly slide guitar taking the happy atmosphere around the corner to meet with its forebears from the Great Beyond. Then, two songs later, the mononymic Alfredo starts Musia do Cantino with a brief but complex speedy guitar riff (courtesy Derek Gripper) before falling into a serial minimal groove, Alredo singing and playing pankwe (an unusual double-gourd zithery/dulcimerish instrument).
The band strikes up behind him and gets into a kind of jig tempo adding a couple of extra dimensions to the song. Everything here and throughout the disc is highly infectious. Western corollaries are just a trifle hard to point to, but if you're the kind of listener who digs Cat Stevens, Guggenheim Trio, John Martyn, Duncan Browne, and so on, as well as the African rhythms the West is getting increasingly familiar with, then this CD is right up your alley. Chaisoni Bicaus Bandeira delivers a mesmerizing sprechestime / singing combination that pulls the listener into an envigored hypnotic state, and I dug the hell out of the rough quasi-falsetto refrain in Academico and Pimento's Marry Very Well.
The baseline behind all this lies in a unique venture, the brainchild of three artistically integrative young innovators who created a small solar-powered recording studio capable of being carried into literally any region of the country and easily set up, ready to document musicians wherever they can be found. The result is surprisingly well finished where one might otherwise expect the flaws and glitches native to the older norms of field recordings. In college, I took an Ethnomusicology class, and the teacher—Ron Riddle, a writer for Downbeat—did not see eye to eye with me, we didn't get along very well at all, but he woulda made me his protégé had I presented him with this kind of product as a capstone project, trust me.
Moçambique is indeed that good, a singular bang-up job for which Mssrs. Simon Attwell, Kim Winter, & Julio Siguaque should be well lauded, a canny trio of cats providing not only a valuable service but in the process of lavishing irresistible musics on the rest of the globe, material that would likely otherwise never have escaped its territorial confines, and that would be on the order of an aesthetic crime. Think of this as a kind of latterday WOMAD gig.

Q: Type 'string' is not assignable to type 'number'.ts(2322) I'm new at typescript and trying to figure out how to handle this error. I understand why it happens, but can't find the right way to handle this.
export function intToString(num: number): string {
  num = num.toString().replace(/[^0-9.]/g, ``);

  if (num < 1000) {
    return num;
  }

  const si = [
    { v: 1e3, s: `K` },
    { v: 1e6, s: `M` },
    { v: 1e9, s: `B` },
    { v: 1e12, s: `T` },
    { v: 1e15, s: `P` },
    { v: 1e18, s: `E` },
  ];

  let index;
  for (index = si.length - 1; index > 0; index--) {
    if (num >= si[index].v) {
      break;
    }
  }

  return (
    (num / si[index].v).toFixed(2).replace(/\.0+$|(\.[0-9]*[1-9])0+$/, `$1`) +
    si[index].s
  );
}

ERROR:
(parameter) num: number
Type 'number' is not assignable to type 'string'.ts(2322)

A: The problem is mainly due to this part here. You are returning "num", which is a number type from your input. But your function is expecting a string type output here.
if (num < 1000) {
    return num;
}

This should solve it instead. Just return num.toString() instead. Also, the usage of Math.abs here is to cover the use case of negative values
export function intToString(num: number): string {
  const absNum = Math.abs(num);

  if (absNum < 1000) {
    return num.toString();
  }

  // console.log('test')

  const si = [
    { v: 1e3, s: `K` },
    { v: 1e6, s: `M` },
    { v: 1e9, s: `B` },
    { v: 1e12, s: `T` },
    { v: 1e15, s: `P` },
    { v: 1e18, s: `E` },
  ];

  let index;
  for (index = si.length - 1; index > 0; index--) {
    if (absNum >= si[index].v) {
      break;
    }
  }

  return (
    (num / si[index].v).toFixed(2).replace(/\.0+$|(\.[0-9]*[1-9])0+$/, `$1`) +
    si[index].s
  );
}

This Nursing and Midwifery Council approved course leads to registration on Part 3 of the register as a Specialist Community Public Health Nurse (Health Visiting). If you are a nurse or midwife looking to become a health visitor, this course is ideal for you.
A public health approach to healthcare provision requires particular knowledge and skills.
This course is designed to educate nurses and midwives to become public health nurses so that they can contribute positively to the new public health agenda and gain employment as health visitors.
The course outcomes reflect the Nursing and Midwifery Council Standards for Specialist Community Public Health Nursing and encapsulate the ten principles which underpin public health nursing. The course is a practice-centred course. It is delivered on a 50% taught theory and 50% practice basis over 52 programmed weeks for the one-year full-time route and 104 programmed weeks for the two-year part-time route. Practice-based learning is central to the course and you are allocated a practice teacher by your sponsoring organisation who facilitates your learning in practice and is responsible for the assessment of your competence in practice.
During the course you explore evidence appraisal. This facilitates understanding of the evidence which underpins and supports practice. You explore public health and practice facilitating development of your relevant knowledge in relation to the current public health agenda. Leadership in relation to health visiting practice is also addressed. The health needs, protection and surveillance of the child and family in a health visiting context are also investigated and community practitioner prescribing. Your practice experience enables you to link your theoretical knowledge base to practice. There is a ten-week period of supervised practice at the end of the course.
Theory encompasses a range of teaching methods including lectures, seminars, problem-based learning scenarios, peer review and presentations. Learning in practice placement is supported with the development of a practice portfolio, which includes self-assessment activities, learning contracts and reflective dialogue and discussion.
Assessment strategies include examinations, case study analysis, reflective essays, written assignments' progress file and a dissertation. Practice is assessed via the progress file and the development of the practice project, through the mechanism of tripartite visits - where you, your practice teacher and your academic mentor meet to assess your progress and competence in practice.
Increased employment opportunities are available in the public health sector including public health nursing and health visiting.


Crumble Cottage is based on old-fashioned values, often sadly missing in this frenetic world we live in today.
Creative couple Kym and Stephen Yorke left the fast-paced life of international advertising creatives behind, to run their own business from their idyllic cottage in Oxfordshire.
The Crumble Cottage range of china, textiles, books, prints, cards and gifts took the Christmas market by storm and already has customers from across the globe clamouring for more.
Designed and created in the UK, the range of products includes perfect gifts for Easter, Mother's Day, Father's Day, weddings, new baby arrivals, wedding anniversaries and birthdays. The business works with a social enterprise to produce the textiles.
The distinctive black and white illustrations capture snowdrops, tulips and roses as well as hearts and the two stars of the Crumble Cottage show-Rosemary and Sedgwick.
Rooted in the English countryside, the business is inspired by rural life and a return to simpler times-both in its designs and its ethos and is the culmination of thirty years of illustrations and story-telling.
Stephen said: "For almost thirty years I've been telling the story of Rosemary and Sedgewick, bakers who live and work in Crumble Cottage, Upper Crustington, Breadfordshire. At first through intricate pen and ink drawings on Christmas cards, but latterly I was inspired to also write my first book, 'Christmas at Crumble Cottage.
"My wife, Kym, and I work closely together to create our range. We're both art-trained. I gained a place at Moseley School of Art at the tender age of eleven and Kym attended Central St Martins in London, gaining a BA Honours Degree in graphic design. We spent 30 years as advertising creatives before we started Crumble Cottage.
"Every item is carefully designed and produced in England and we work closely with small manufacturers across the country, but our most important collaboration is with St Annes Soft Furnishings, a wonderful mental health charity based in Birmingham. They stitch all our jingling bunting, Christmas sacks, cushions and much more.
"I still create every image myself, starting with a pencil sketch and then on to the tricky bit, pen and ink. It's all done by hand and each image takes about two weeks to complete.
Kym is still very hands-on too. Her handmade 'Bunting in a Box' is one of our most popular products. She is often found in her studio surrounded by thousands of tinkling bells.
In Crumble Cottage there is always the smell of freshly baked bread, the fire crackles in the grate and candles flicker on the mantle shelf. Come in to Crumble Cottage, a little piece of England you are sure of a warm welcome.
Textiles by St Anne's, a social enterprise within a leading mental health charity, Better Pathways, are very proud to be manufacturers for Crumble Cottage.
Stigma and discrimination surrounding mental health directly impacts on employment possibilities. Since 1963, Better Pathways, has been breaking down these barriers through training, personal development, work experience and support.
Not only are the products made in the UK, they also bring social value. Trainees gain valuable work experience in manufacturing techniques enhancing employment opportunities and increasing confidence.
For further information, images and samples please contact Stephen and Kym Yorke at 01869 232972. kym@crumblecottage.com.

Lars Fredrik Kempe, född 29 april 1972 i Vårgårda i dåvarande Älvsborgs län, är en svensk artist och låtskrivare, inom pop, opera, schlager och klassisk musik. Kempe har deltagit i Melodifestivalen två gånger som artist (2004 och 2005) och har lyckats få med bidrag som låtskrivare varje år 2007–2016.

Den 26 januari presenterades han som ny jurymedlem i Idol 2016.

Artisten
Kempe har medverkat i musikaler som Les Misérables på Värmlandsoperan och Chess på Cirkus i Stockholm. Han har även en bakgrund som förstatenor i Karlstads universitets manskör; Sällskapet CMB. Kempe har belönats med Kungliga Musikaliska Akademiens Nicolai Gedda-stipendium två gånger. Han är även utbildad civilekonom. Kempe fick sitt genombrott med låten Vincerò 2002, en poplåt vars refräng lånats från Nessun dorma ur Giacomo Puccinis opera Turandot. Singeln låg på svenska försäljningslistan i 24 veckor.

Kempe har givit ut två musikalbum under eget namn där flertalet låtar har lånat refräng eller melodi från klassiska operastycken, medan verser skrivits och komponerats av Kempe.

I Melodifestivalen 2004 framförde Kempe sitt egenkomponerade bidrag Finally, en hyllning till hans favoritkompositör Benny Andersson. Året därpå framförde han låten Du och jag mot världen som en duett tillsammans med Sanna Nielsen där de slutade på åttonde plats i finalen. Kempe är bosatt i Hammarby Sjöstad i Stockholm.

Privatliv
Han är bosatt i Stockholm och var 2013-2020 gift med den moderate politikern Christoffer Järkeborn.

Låtskrivare
Fredrik Kempe är en av de mest framgångsrika låtskrivarna i Melodifestivalen under 2000-talet, med totalt fyra vinster: Hero, La Voix, Popular och Undo som framfördes av, i tur och ordning, Charlotte Perrelli, Malena Ernman, Eric Saade och Sanna Nielsen. Tre av dessa vinster skedde på fyra år 2008–2011. Av dessa år var 2010 enda gången han inte vann i Sverige, men gjorde då det i den norska motsvarigheten istället. Kempe hade alltså ett bidrag i Eurovision Song Contest varje år mellan 2008 och 2011.

Utöver Melodifestivalen har Kempe också varit med och skrivit låtar till flera av Måns Zelmerlöws, Charlotte Perrellis, Sara Dawn Finers och Eric Saades musikalbum.

Han har även år 2014 skrivit Centerpartiets vallåt Nära dig.

Quentin Tarantino said everyone has the wrong idea about his upcoming ninth movie.
A few months back, reports surfaced that the untitled flick will center on Charles Manson and the Manson family murders. However, Tarantino recently told IndieWire that the focus is a little less specific. "It's not Charles Manson, it's 1969," he said.
That was as much as he was willing to reveal, but it's possible that Manson will only tangentially be related to the plot. For example, think of how Hitler factored into Inglourious Basterds. You wouldn't necessarily call that a movie about Hitler. It's possible that the Manson storyline will be just one of several, sort of how Pulp Fiction has interweaving tales.
We do, however, know that Suicide Squad star Margot Robbie is rumored to be up for the part of Sharon Tate, one of the victims of the Manson family. And Tarantino has reportedly also met with previous collaborators Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Samuel L. Jackson.
As for which studio will finance the project now that Tarantino has cut ties with the Weinstein Company, he said, "It's a level playing field." The Weinstein Company financed all of his movies since 1992's Reservoir Dogs but it's in peril now that former boss Harvey Weinstein is accused of sexual misconduct.

TEP Helps Relocate Burrowing Owls to New Homes
February 2019 February 2019 | Community, Environment
For 16 years, Tucson Electric Power employees have worked with Wild At Heart, a wildlife rescue group, to relocate burrowing owls to safer habitats.
TEP supports the Burrowing Owl Project and many other environmental programs as part of its philanthropic commitment to preserving and protecting the environment.
On a recent Saturday morning, TEP volunteers built six tents that helped a dozen owls acclimate to their new homes on a farmland plot near Marana. In this "owl condo," the artificially-built burrows now have new residents.
"TEP provided us with funding for materials to build the owl habitats, machines to dig the trenches and operators to run the machines. They also send us enthusiastic volunteers who come out on hot, cold and wet days," said Greg Clark, Wild At Heart's Burrowing Owl Habitat Coordinator. "At every level of this project, TEP has been indispensable and a big help to our work."
Burrowing owls are endangered in Canada, threatened in Mexico, and a bird of concern in Arizona. Because they live underground, their biggest threat is land development in addition to natural predators. These tiny 10-inch tall owls prefer to occupy dens abandoned by other animals because they are unable to dig their own in Arizona's hard compacted soil.
Jessica Hayes, TEP Contact Center Analytics Supervisor and Community Action Team member, has been involved with this project for two years. She is among the nearly one-third of TEP employees who volunteer for various charities and causes in their free time.
"I've always been passionate about wildlife and nature, and this drew my attention. I'm also involved with TEP's Raptor Protection program. I want to preserve our wildlife and like being able to see the positive impact from our work," Hayes said.
Under Clark's direction, volunteers assembled the release tents, which are metal frames covered with perforated mesh. Owls can see through the mesh to scout for predators, but the mesh conceals them from predators. "They need to be able to survey the area and spot any bad guys, such hawks," Clark said.
Underneath the tents are several tunnels of tubing that lead underground to an overturned plastic bucket, which serves as a nest.
After 18 years of trial and error, Clark has perfected the artificial habitat and the introduction process with good results. The release tents, along with providing food and water for the owls, encourages these fickle raptors to settle in to their new homes. After a month, the tents will be removed.
TEP used to provide land for the burrows next to the H. Wilson Sundt Generating Station off of Irvington Road, but the owls eventually abandoned them to find other preferable habitats.
Clark said preserving and studying species such as the borrowing owl is important work because it teaches us about our impact on the environment.
"By studying the habits of wildlife and their impact on ecosystems and the environment, you begin to understand how valuable they are to us," said Clark. "The burrowing owl is an early sentinel of problems with insects, pesticides or drought that are affecting the environment. This is an opportunity for people to directly participate in conservation and not just read about it in a book."
TEP Volunteers Support Numerous Events and Causes During the Holidays
TEP employees are stepping up their efforts during the holidays to support several charitable causes and seasonal events.

When the right knee isn't tender and sore, it's stiff and achy. But Katelyn Riddersen can't bring herself to stop playing.
The Totino-Grace High School junior plays volleyball year-round despite a knee that has been severely injured since last winter.
"My doctor told me what I could do to fix it -- that was take four months off because I'm overworking it," Riddersen said. "I said no way. I couldn't do it. That meant I would fall behind, and I didn't want to."
Others -- many others -- feel her pain.
Coaches, orthopedists and athletic trainers say overuse injuries, once the curse of the 40-and-over set, are plaguing growing numbers of athletes in their teens and even younger. Many blame an ever more intense youth sports culture that's pushing kids to compete harder and at much earlier ages.
"It's alarming," said Dr. Anthony Stans, a pediatric orthopedic surgeon at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester.
"We used to see these injuries more in the 15-to-18-year-old range," Stans said. "Now, we're seeing it in kids as young as 8 or 9."
In 2003, more than 3.5 million children younger than 15 required medical treatment for sports injuries, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
That number has more than quadrupled since 1995, when it was 775,000.
Locally, the number of injuries also has spiked. Stans estimated that he has seen overuse injuries among kids double in the past five to 10 years.
A Blue Cross and Blue Shield survey released last fall found that four of every 10 Minnesota families with children in organized sports have a child who has suffered an injury requiring medical treatment. Of those treated, one-third missed school.
Most of the treated injuries stem from doing too much too soon. The repercussions of that can be devastating -- sometimes causing permanent damage. In Minnesota, one in 10 parents cited injury as the reason their child quit a sport.
The explosion of sports injuries is also pushing up the cost of medical care.
"The treatments are definitely better than they were years ago, but they're also expensive," said Keith Folkert, a medical director at Blue Cross and Blue Shield, a nonprofit health insurance company.
Injuries ranging from pulled muscles to torn ligaments to stress fractures are showing up in gyms and training rooms around the Twin Cities.
At Benilde-St. Margaret's, more boys' soccer players are limping to preseason practices with injuries, according to coach Dave Platt. "I had a kid with a hip flexor injury who didn't have enough time to rest it," he said. "One student had an ankle injury who could have used more rest."
BSM, a Catholic school in St. Louis Park, has one of the state's top small-school soccer programs.
At Elk River, a handful of boys' hockey players have played injured for an entire calendar year. The same goes for boys' soccer players at Park Center. "These kids' seasons aren't ending," lamented Rob Loftus, who coaches both teams, as an assistant coach at Elk River and head coach at Park Center. "They're just not getting any time to rest."
Athletes at Totino-Grace purposely avoid doctors, knowing many will tell them to rest. "They don't want to hear that," said Dave Matzoll, the school's athletic trainer. "They want to know: `What can I do to keep playing?'"
At White Bear Lake, longtime athletic trainer Joel Kaden has noticed a definite increase in chronic overuse injuries. "Has it gotten to be catastrophic? Probably not yet," he said. "But if the trend keeps going, five or 10 years from now you'll see it getting real bad."
Too much volume, intensity and frequency add up to an overuse injury. Among the young, the injuries include stress fractures caused by inadequate recovery; growth plate injuries, which can lead to permanent damage, and soft-tissue damage to tendons, muscles and ligaments.
Most of these ailments are preventable.
Children are pressured into starting club sports early and specializing in a single sport. Some players on traveling teams are as young as third- and fourth-graders. The three-sport athlete is becoming obsolete, especially at bigger schools.
Kaden, an athletic trainer for more than two decades, knows of 6- and 7-year-olds who have already chosen to play only one sport.
"How can you give up at that age?" he said. "Some of your best athletes don't blossom till 14, 15, 16 years old."
Club and traveling teams have proliferated, causing seasons to overlap one another.
"I have neighbors who go to hockey camp every day of the week for three hours a day," Eagan volleyball coach Kathy Gillen-Melville said. "One is in fourth grade, and the other in seventh. That is insane. It bothers me."
Coaches and doctors say club teams are asking kids to cram more games into longer seasons.
They talk of volleyball clubs beginning practices barely a week after the high school season ends and of soccer clubs that have held tryouts the same week that high schools hold theirs.
"Professional athletes take three to four months [off] after the season; they have that down time," said Mark Obarski, girls' soccer coach at Eagan. "But the kids, it seems like they go from one thing to the next thing to the next thing. Their bodies never have time to recover."
Riddersen plays volleyball year-round: for Totino-Grace, a Catholic high school in Fridley; her Minnesota Select club team, or a beach volleyball team during the summer.
About a year ago, Riddersen's right knee started bothering her. By February, it began to buckle.
A doctor told Riddersen her patellar tendon was shredding. But instead of taking time off, as he recommended, she kept playing. "I just taped my kneecap up so it had more support," Riddersen said. She played on her club team and didn't miss a high school match.
Cindy Riddersen, Katelyn's mother, says it's difficult to watch her daughter play in pain. But she doesn't tell her to stop because she knows how much volleyball means to Katelyn.
"It's her entertainment and her social life," Cindy Riddersen said, "so [Katelyn] doesn't rest [the knee] at all. There's nights where it's swollen, where she should ice but she doesn't ice. Kids at this age think they're invincible."
Loftus said he didn't realize parental pressure could begin so early until he signed up his son for hockey two years ago.
"It's like a mini-camp for parents to groom 6-year-olds to be high school players," he said.
Dr. Daniel Buss, a Minneapolis orthopedic surgeon and team physician for the Minnesota Twins, has had young patients admit they overdo it to please their parents. Often, when he tells a youngster to take a month off from baseball, football or tennis, "the dad doesn't want to hear that," he said.
play basketball in high school unless they played year-round in junior high.
"The kids aren't asking for it," he said. "I'm not seeing kids come in and say, `Gosh, I wish I could play soccer 12 months of the year, six nights a week, three hours a night.'"
jumping too much can cause stress fractures in ankles and shins. Serving a tennis ball or throwing a baseball too many times can lead to rotator cuff injuries or elbow stress fractures.
Some orthopedists believe overuse might also play a role in the recent explosion in knee injuries, especially among girls.
tendinitis and shin splits, the damage can be permanent - boosting the likelihood of chronic pain, osteoarthritis and the need for surgery later in life.
The effects of overuse injuries "can be devastating," said Dr. Carl Nissen, an orthopedic surgeon at the University of Connecticut who has studied the causes of such injuries among adolescents. "They can potentially have permanent effects through life. It can happen to the kid who was the star at age 13, but at 18 is out. They've closed the door, reduced their options."
Nissen, who preaches against specialization, admits he has trouble persuading his own high school-age kids to play more than one sport - but he does make sure they schedule a yearly break.
At the same time that obesity among the young is burgeoning, it's paradoxical that more and more kids are getting hurt because they do too much.
"We want to get kids active and maintain healthy weight," Stans said, "and we've got another group of kids who are stressed out and having overuse injuries because they're constantly playing. There's nothing in the middle for kids who just want to enjoy being outside, participating."
Coaches should look for slowing times or subtle changes in mechanics, and take them seriously. The earlier injuries are caught, the more quickly they will heal.
Coaches and athletes should become more comfortable talking about pain and backing off earlier. "Kids won't hurt themselves if you leave it up to them," said Dr. Bill Roberts, an associate professor at the University of Minnesota who has treated hundreds of young athletes. "But if there's external pressure from parents, coaches and schools, you can override that natural ability to say enough is enough."
Coaches should treat kids individually.
Work on specific skills, rather than the same thing repeatedly.
Kids should take a month or more off every year to give muscles and bones a break.
Play a variety of sports. Or cross train to prevent one area from becoming overworked.
Limit the nights of practice per week.
Provide more options to participate in less competitive, mid-level sports.
Swimmer's shoulder: Painful shoulder impingement commonly associated with swimming freestyle.
Tennis elbow: Covers any overuse injury to elbow bone or cartilage. Affects tennis players and young pitchers who throw too much.
Knee damage: Syndrome typified by tugging of muscle under the kneecap, causing pain and quadriceps fatigue. Common in nearly all sports, especially among females.
Shin splints: Pain over the front of the tibia bone caused by damaged muscles, bones or ligaments. Commonly seen in athletes who suddenly increase their duration or intensity of training. Can afflict volleyball, basketball, soccer players and runners.
Tendinitis: Inflammation in the Achilles tendon, in the back of the ankle. Can lead to small tears within the tendon, making it susceptible to rupture. Common in youngsters who play running sports, including basketball and soccer.
Stress fractures: A pain or crack in the bones, commonly seen in athletes who run and jump on hard surfaces such as basketball players and runners. Often seen in the foot and shin bones.
shoulders have been bad," the 6-2 senior winger from Elk River said.
Peterson separated his left clavicle four years ago in a bantam game. Even today, the clavicle is 3 millimeters out of place, and his doctor says it will probably remain that way. "It's a nagging injury," he said. "But you can play with it. It won't get any worse."
game. It was a stinger, something "you just play through." He sat out only one game.
Since then, Peterson has bruised the shoulder over and over. "But that's hockey," he said, "part of the strain of the game. I just play with it." He also stretched the medial collateral ligament in his knee two weeks ago, missing two games before returning.
Peterson, who is being recruited by the Gophers and Colorado State, began hockey in kindergarten and has played year-round since fourth grade. During the spring, he plays baseball for the Elks.
tough kid. I think this year he'll finally be healthy."
the ball and fell again."
Graeve, who had started on defense as a freshman and sophomore, soon learned that she had torn her right anterior cruciate ligament, a tough band of tissue that stabilizes the knee by connecting the thigh to the shin. The debilitating injury requires surgery and months of rehabilitation -- which Graeve underwent diligently.
Nearly six months after getting hurt, Graeve returned to the field in the summer.
But on Aug. 27, two games into her senior season, she ran for the ball, planted her foot wrong and immediately knew she had torn the ACL in her other knee, ending her high school career.
"I was pretty much devastated," she said.
Knee injuries strike young athletes with alarming frequency -- especially females, who are far more likely to suffer the injury than males, according to several studies. The majority of ACL tears occur in females ages 15 and 25, according to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. Those playing sports involving jumping, pivoting, and sudden stops and starts are especially vulnerable.
A Blue Cross and Blue Shield survey found that, between 2003 and 2004, the number of knee repairs in a single year jumped 5.8 percent among Minnesota teenage girls and 2.4 percent among boys.
Graeve has learned that her ACL tears might have been preventable.
"Doctors think my injury may be the case because I only play one sport," she said. "I don't work all the muscles."
Graeve has played soccer year-round since her freshman year when she quit basketball. Her only time off from the sport came during the month between her summer premier league and the start of the high school season, plus a couple of weeks in November.
Dr. Elizabeth Arendt, an Minneapolis orthopedic surgeon who has studied ACL tears for more than a decade, said the dominance of one muscle group over another can increase the risk for the injury. Strengthening all of the muscles around the knee can help reduce the risk.
"Some say we're too quad-dominant," she said. "It's not a strength issue, but more of a symmetry in strength patterns."
Graeve, who hopes to return to her premier team by March, says she might have done things differently if she knew then what she does now.
"I probably would have worked harder to keep my muscles strong," she said. "And I probably would have stuck with another sport."

Mike Nelson's work has centred on the transformation of narrative structure to spatial structure, and on the objects placed within them, immersing the viewer and agitating their perception of these environments. The narratives employed by the artist are not teleological, but multi-layered, and often fractured to the extent that they could be described as a semblance of 'atmospheres', put together to give a sense of meaning. The more discrete sculptural works are informed by this practice, often relying on their ambiguity to fade in and out of focus, as a sculpture or thing of meaning, and back to the very objects or material from which they are made. By working in this way the more overtly political aspects of the early works have become less didactic, allowing for an ambiguity of meaning, both in the way that they are experienced and understood. This has led to the possibility of the viewer being coerced into a state where the understanding of the varied structures of their existence, both conscious and sub-conscious, are made tangible.

Scott David Burrell (born January 12, 1971) is an American basketball coach and former player who is currently the men's basketball head coach at Southern Connecticut State University. He has played internationally and was also a professional baseball player. Burrell was also the first American athlete to be a first round draft-pick of two major sporting organizations (the NBA and MLB).
Burrell was born in New Haven, Connecticut. A 6'7" multi-sport star at Hamden High School in Connecticut, Burrell was drafted by baseball's Seattle Mariners during his senior year. The Mariners wanted to develop Burrell as a pitcher and suggested that he bypass college for the minor leagues. However, Burrell wanted to attend college and made plans to play baseball at the University of Miami (FL) before University of Connecticut assistant basketball coach Howie Dickenman convinced Burrell to play basketball for the Huskies.
After his freshman year at University of Connecticut, Burrell was drafted by another baseball team, the Toronto Blue Jays, and Burrell decided to spend his summers playing minor league baseball while concentrating on basketball for the rest of the year. Burrell's basketball career would quickly overshadow his baseball career, however, as he became the first player in NCAA history to compile over 1,500 points, 750 rebounds, 275 assists and 300 steals. Scott is known for his full court pass with 1 second on the clock to Tate George, who hit a shot as time expired to beat Clemson in the East Regional Semi-final in the 1990 NCAA tournament.
Burrell was selected by the Charlotte Hornets with the 20th pick of the 1993 NBA Draft. He averaged 4.8 points per game during his rookie season, but he blossomed during his sophomore year, averaging 11.5 points and finishing third in voting for the NBA Most Improved Player Award. That year, he also finished third at the AT&T Long-Distance Shootout. During the 1995-96 NBA season, however, injuries limited Burrell to 20 games, and he would be reduced to a supporting role during the rest of his career. He split the 1996-97 season between the Hornets and the Golden State Warriors, averaging only 5.9 points per game, before being traded by the Warriors to the Chicago Bulls for Dickey Simpkins in the fall of 1997. However, Burrell was able to win his first and only NBA Championship ring during his season with the Bulls, and he would play three more seasons after that (with the New Jersey Nets and Charlotte Hornets) before taking his career overseas. Burrell's international stops have included China, the Philippines, and Japan.
Burrell is currently the head men's basketball coach at Southern Connecticut State University in New Haven. He was hired on July 13, 2015. He had previously coached at Quinnipiac University in his hometown of Hamden, Connecticut, where he coached under former UConn assistant coach Tom Moore. Burrell went back to school and received his bachelor's degree in General Studies from the University of Connecticut on May 8, 2010. He was honored with Scott Burrell Day in Hamden on May 26, 2014.  He is married to SportsNet New York reporter Jeané Coakley.

FRANKFORT, Ky. —
Two bills moving through the Kentucky legislature would enact a statewide anti-discrimination fairness law.
Senate Bill 69 , an amendment to the Kentucky Revised Statutes, would prohibit discrimination because of sexual orientation and gender identity.
SB 69 is sponsored by Sens. Perry Clark, of Louisville, and Kathy Stein, of Lexington, and proposes to amend the current state civil rights act, which prevents discrimination based on race, gender or national origin.
The bill would add "sexual orientation" and "gender identity" to the current civil rights act.
Clark said it's just one more step in stopping what he calls a cycle of discrimination.
Clark said he and Stein know the proposed amendment will face a contentious battle in the Senate.
House Bill 188 would also ban discrimination because of sexual orientation.
Dozens gathered Sunday in downtown Louisville to show their support for anti-discrimination legislation.
"House Bill 188 is most likely to get a hearing this session, which ends in March, hoping to get it a hearing on that bill which has a number of sponsors. I think there are now 12 sponsors of the bill," said State Rep. Jim Wayne, of Louisville.
Louisville, Lexington and Covington already have city fairness ordinances to protect the gay and transgender community from discrimination.

Mark Zuckerberg claims Facebook Papers leak paints 'false picture' of company
By Elizabeth Culliford and Nivedita Balu Reuters

1:41 Zuckerberg hits back at claims by Facebook whistleblower
WATCH: Zuckerberg hits back at claims by Facebook whistleblower – Oct 6, 2021
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is lambasting the revelations in the Facebook Papers, saying "selectively" released documents have painted a "false picture" of the company.
"We are seeing a coordinated effort to selectively use leaked documents to paint a false picture of our company," Zuckerberg said on Monday during Facebook's quarterly earnings call.
Read more: Explainer: What are the Facebook Papers?
It's the first time the CEO has spoken out since 17 American news organizations began publishing a series of articles on Monday that shed a dark light on Facebook's internal operations with regards to how it manages and reviews content.
The articles are based on thousands of pages of internal company documents obtained by Frances Haugen, a whistleblower who was formerly a product manager at the social media giant.
During the call, Facebook said it will start publishing the financial results of its augmented and virtual reality labs as a separate unit, where it is investing billions in its ambitions to build the "metaverse" and as it reported that its main advertising business faces "significant uncertainty."
2:16 Facebook Papers reveal company workers' anger over policies, questionable ethics
Facebook, which reported third-quarter profit up 17 per cent, warned that Apple Inc's new privacy changes would weigh on its digital business in the current quarter. The social media company reported quarterly revenue below market expectations, which Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg told analysts was due to the iOS changes.
David Wehner, Facebook's chief financial officer, said the company expected its investment in its hardware division, Facebook Reality Labs, to reduce overall operating profit in 2021 by approximately US$10 billion.
Zuckerberg has said Facebook in the coming years will be seen not as a social media firm but as a company focused on the metaverse. The buzzy term refers broadly to a shared virtual environment which can be accessed by people using different devices.

Facebook, which has invested heavily in virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), including buying companies like Oculus, this year created a product team to work on the metaverse. This month, it said it plans to hire 10,000 employees in Europe over the next five years to work on this initiative.
"This is not an investment that is going to be profitable for us any time in the near future," Zuckerberg told analysts. "But we basically believe that the metaverse is going to be the successor to the mobile internet."
Wehner said that starting in the fourth quarter of 2021, it would break out Facebook Reality Labs as a separate reporting segment from Facebook's family of apps.
Shares of the company were up about one per cent in after-hours trade on Monday. Facebook, whose shares have gained about 20 per cent so far this year, is about US$85 billion away from regaining a spot on the $1 trillion club and joining new entrant Tesla Inc.
RETOOLING
The world's largest social media network is under scrutiny from global lawmakers and regulators, including from the Federal Trade Commission which has filed an antitrust lawsuit alleging anticompetitive practices.
The whistleblower documents, first reported by the Wall Street Journal, have intensified scrutiny of the company. They include internal research and reports about Instagram's effects on the mental health of teens and about whether Facebook's platforms stoke divisions, as well as its handling of activity around the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and inconsistencies in the company's content moderation for users around the globe.
For the third quarter, Facebook reported monthly active users of 2.91 billion, up six per cent from a year ago but short of analysts' estimates.

On the call, executives emphasized the company's focus on attracting young adults, including through its short video feature "Reels."
"We are retooling our teams to make serving young adults their North Star rather than optimizing for the larger number of older people," said Zuckerberg, a shift he said would take "years, not months, to fully execute."
The leaked documents show Facebook's ongoing concerns about its appeal to younger users, as rivals like TikTok have enjoyed popularity with teens. They also show the company's difficulties in dealing with users who create multiple accounts on its platform.
Facebook said it expects fourth-quarter revenue to be in a range of US$31.5 billion to US$34 billion. Analysts had forecast US$34.84 billion in revenue, or a 24.1 per cent jump, according to IBES data from Refinitiv.

Its third-quarter revenue too faced the brunt of Apple's privacy rules that made it harder for brands to target and measure their ads on Facebook. Sandberg, the COO, said Facebook expects it will solve "more than half" of the problems that led to the under-reporting by the end of this year.
"The changes to Apple privacy settings have not hurt Facebook in a major way, at least not yet," said Haris Anwar, an analyst at Investing.com. "Though revenue and user numbers have taken a slight hit over the past quarter, the company's earning power is still intact."
The company's total revenue, which primarily consists of ad sales, rose to US$29.01 billion in the third quarter from US$21.47 billion a year earlier, missing analysts' estimates of US$29.57 billion. Sandberg said Facebook's advertisers were also affected by the global supply-chain disruptions and labor shortages, which hurt advertising demand across a range of sectors and regions.
Facebook said it repurchased US$14.37 billion in stock during the third quarter and announced an additional US$50 billion in share buybacks.

Is everyone watching the World Cup? For me, this summer will be remembered as very World Cup focused – I've loved watching as many games as I can get to. It's sad that the U.S. is out but there are still some amazing games left to watch – the remaining four teams play this week to determine who's in the final on July 13th! Here is a quick way to make some soccer ball drink stirrers to use at a viewing party. They come together easily, despite having a tricky shape (the pentagon) on the ball!
Step 3: To make a small stencil to use for putting the pentagon shape on the balls, cut a small pentagon out of washi tape.
Step 4: Carefully stick the pentagon stencil on the ball, and fill it in using the foam pouncer. You can re-use the stencil to make all the pentagons on each ball. Classic black and white soccer balls have 12 pentagons. The easiest way to arrange them is to put two opposite each other around the base of the ball (where it's attached to the skewer) and then put two more in between those so you have four evenly spaced. Repeat around the top of the ball so they are directly in line with the bottom ones. Then put four more – one in each open space – around the middle of the ball.
Hello there! I'm crazy about the World Cup, I always enjoy these events but this year more because I'm Argentina and we are in the semis after 24 years of not spending quarterfinal.
Come on Argentina! I'm happy! party is tomorrow and play with Holland and here is a holiday because it is the day of independence worldwide to watch the match!
This world cup has been amazing! Filled with surprises, great games, great players!
Sticks are just so excellent. I loved the style and I am going to try them out today itself.


PHILIPPINES P100c 100 PESOS 1944ND PCGS 64PPQ "MAGELLAN" from CU RUN!
I procured this piece, along with a a couple of others (consecutive serial #) back in about 2010 directly out of the Philippines! This is the much rarer "a" variety, opposed to the "c's." I've acquired extensive Philippine collection in over the past decade and without hesitation, this is the most iconic imagery and popular / sought after type. Prior to finding a couple of these back in 2010 ish, these notes ONLY came in very very low VF or Fine and generally with burns on them (cigarette's). This piece is as crisp as the day it was issued and is absent of even any handling, it's as near to perfect of what exists. Every World Note Collection needs to have an emphasis on the Philippines and this note type is a must have!

Dakota Settlements
French-Canadian Settlement
Reflecting Anoka County's Music History
Web Site Aids Local Preservation
Before the French-Canadian settlers established the town of Centerville in the mid-1800's, Dakota Indians lived here in the 1600s and 1700s. At that time, this area was covered with dense woodlands and many square miles of marshes, lakes, and waterways.
The natural habitat provided the Dakota with an abundant food supply, including wild rice and a wide variety of game and fish. They travelled the waterways by canoe, reaching the St. Croix River to the east and the Mississippi River to the west.
The Dakota abandoned their settlement in the late 1700's, but returned annually to harvest wild rice. The French-Canadian settlers found burial mounds and artifacts. Many items were excavated and removed from the area before they could be studied.
In the 1940s, archaeologist Harold Kohlepp examined and recorded over a thousand artifacts that still remained in Centerville, including pottery, tools, and arrowheads. He published his findings in an archeology journal, with Centerville featured on the cover.
The abundance of wildlife attracted many trappers and hunters in the early 1800s. In 1850, F.W.Traves built the first house here. Soon after, families from Canada arrived and settled here because it reminded them of their former homeland. Several descendants of these original French-Canadian settlers still reside in Centerville.
In 1854, settlers Peltier, LaValle, and LaMotte laid out and platted the town. They chose the name Centerville because of its central location from St. Paul, Stillwater, and Anoka. The City was officially established on August 11, 1857, when Minnesota was still a territory.
The downtown area of Centerville was originally known as the French Section. German immigrants settled farther to the west in what is now part of the City of Lino Lakes. The pioneers cleared the land for farming and agriculture, which became the focus of the area's economy. Businesses that supported agriculture followed. Residents formed the Church of St. Genevieve of Paris.
Children began to receive their school lessons during the winter of 1854 in the kitchen of a Centerville home. Many school buildings in town have come and gone since then. In 1917, children began to ride horse-drawn buses to school. The hot lunch program also began that year. Usually soup or hash was served, supplemented with sandwiches the children brought in their lunch buckets. By 1956, residents voted to organize our present Centennial School District Number 12. Centerville Elementary School was built in 1959 and has been added onto several times.
In 1971, the following streets were named to reflect Centerville's history:
Mill Road - In 1854, Charles Peltier built a sawmill on Clearwater Creek.
Mound Trail - Indian mounds can still be observed in this area.
Progress Road - All the schools have been located on this road.
Sorel Street - Many of the first pioneers were born in Sorel, Canada.
Goiffon Road - Named after the pioneer missionary from France, Father Goiffon, who served as rector of the Church of St. Genevieve of Paris from 1861-1881.
The Anoka County Historical Society (ACHS) is undertaking a most noteworthy project of compiling information concerning the musical history of Anoka County for the purpose of establishing a rotating exhibit in the Anoka County History Center and Library. However, since the field of music is so broad, information will be collected and shown according to music types.
Phase I features community, school, and dance bands.
Phase II concentrates on orchestras
Phase III focuses on choir and vocal groups, and
Phase IV examines composers, music educators, and instrument makers.
If you have any information on bands, past or present, please contact the History Center at 763-421-0600 or email Todd Mahon. A committee made up of ACHS board members and community members is especially looking for photos (which can be scanned and returned to the original owner), programs, uniforms, instruments, yearbooks, scores, etc. It is hoped that the first exhibit will open in July of 2008 to celebrate Minnesota's sesquicentennial. Let's band together and share our county's rich musical heritage.
The Anoka County Historical Society, organized in 1934, is headquartered in the Anoka County History Center and Library at 2135 Third Avenue North in Anoka. For more information on its programs and activities, please visit www.ac-hs.org.
Volunteer Opportunities Consist of:
Assisting with tours
Assisting patrons with gathering research information
Participating in community events (parades, luncheons, special costume events)
Assisting the staff with filing, making copies, mailings
Transcribing Oral Histories

Website Aids Local Preservation
Local designation is one of the best ways to protect the historic character of your community's buildings, streetscapes, neighborhoods and local landmarks.
To aid the process of establishing local historic districts, the National Park Service has developed a website especially for historic property owners, new members of heritage preservation commissions and community officials.
This site offers step-by-step guidance in creating a historic preservation commission, writing local preservation ordinances and setting design guidelines. You'll also learn the differences between preservation, rehabilitation, restoration and reconstruction - and why it is important to choose the approach that's most appropriate to your situation. Model projects illustrate varied methods of working with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties.

Cinequest is a pop culture collectibles retailer that decided to expand into creating their own licensed products. I created designs for several of their product lines, including those for the CW Television series, Supernatural and Veronica Mars.
Using frame captures from episodes of the shows as reference, I created prototype sketches capturing the essence of each character during an iconic moment. After the sketches were approved by Cinequest and Warner Bros, they were sent to a skilled sculptor.
While the sculpts went through the approval process, I worked on the retail packaging design. To keep packaging costs low, we decided to avoid using window cutaways. However, this meant prospective brick & mortar retail buyers would not be able to see the product without removing it from the box. Because the condition of the box factors into a collectible's value, we wanted to minimize the amount of wear and tear caused by a buyer opening the box to look at the sculpture. The visual design I created for the boxes shows detailed photographs of the sculpture within mapped to the corresponding box side so the buyer has a sense of the piece while turning the box in their hands and allows the retailer to stack the boxes in a POP display showing each side simultaneously.
The licensed collectibles market is very brand sensitive, so I created designs for the packaging to build brand identity for Cinequest's new product line. This visual identity needed to work across CW shows of varying genres and also fit the market demographics profile of the typical collectibles buyer.
To market the sculpture line, I designed marketing and sales collateral which included magazine ads, sell sheets, web banners, and tradeshow booth displays. These designs appeared in Epic Magazine and San Diego Comic-Con, among other venues.


DOCSIS 3.1 will provide gigabit speeds on standard cable connections; no fiber installation required.
Comcast will soon roll out its super-fast DOCSIS 3.1 Internet service, which will deliver gigabit-like speeds without major installation hassles.
After a successful test in Philadelphia and Atlanta late last year, the service will be available to residential and business customers in Atlanta and Nashville in early 2016, followed by Chicago, Detroit, and Miami in the second half of the year.
According to Comcast, DOCSIS 3.1 will bring gigabit speeds to Xfinity and Comcast Business Internet customers on standard cable connections; no fiber installation required. Just sign up for a plan and plug in a new modem.
Comcast's Gigabit Pro service does use fiber, but provides speeds of up to 2 gigabits per second. That launched in Atlanta last year before rolling out to Chicago, Detroit, Miami, Nashville, and several other markets. It's now available to 18 million homes across Comcast's national footprint, but costs about $230 per month.
Comcast did not announce pricing for DOCSIS 3.1 service, though it will likely be cheaper than Gigabit Pro.
"We're constantly working to ensure that our customers get the fastest speeds available, and that they get them first," Comcast Central Division President Bill Connors said in a statement. "DOCSIS 3.1 represents a tremendous step forward in our commitment to keeping customers at the technology forefront.
"Combined with all the upgrades we have already put into our advanced fiber optic-coax network, this technology will not only provide more gigabit speed choices for customers, it will also eventually make these ultra-fast speeds available to the most homes in our service areas," Connors said.

See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Beloved, we are God's children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is.
