Behind the Baron
RCBC valedictorian offers hopeful message promoting community over individualism
Shanni Prutchi is thoughtful, driven and community-minded. She's also Rowan College at Burlington County's 2020 class valedictorian. This makes complete sense when you consider who she is. Shanni loves to learn, and her love of learning reaches beyond the confines of the classroom.
Shanni's story is a tumultuous one that involves many twists and turns. Her college career began at Rowan University when she had taken a year between high school and college. She was slated to attend Boston University after graduating high school but fell ill her senior year. After deciding she needed to be close to home, she applied and was accepted to Rowan University. However, after taking a medical withdrawal three years in, she enrolled in a Security+ certification class at Camden County College that ignited her passion for cybersecurity.
At that time, RCBC had recently introduced the Computing and Informatics 3+1 program, and Prutchi enrolled soon after she found out about it.
"I was able to not only manage my health but also make friends, get involved on campus and participate in the community experience," she recalled. "RCBC has changed my life for the better, and I know it's done so for many people. It's also taught me to be a helper and invest in others."
Throughout her time at RCBC, Prutchi engaged in research for Lockheed Martin and PRICE Systems, mentored others through the cybersecurity club and fully immersed herself in the college experience, including enrolling in classes that had no relevance to her major. She also formed lasting relationships with her professors.
"Professor Warner has been there for me throughout this entire journey, and Professor Don Cesaretti brought so much knowledge and personal experience to class. He's given me a really important perspective on cybersecurity," Prutchi shared.
For Shanni, life is about balance. When she's not learning, she's working as a cybersecurity analyst for NFI, a logistics and supply chain solutions provider. When she's not doing either of those things, she's giving back to her community.
"My whole life I've been taught that there's always a way you can help people. In every field, you can do what you enjoy while actively working to help people. That's the viewpoint I've been raised with. Be the helper. RCBC has prepared us to be helpers, and right now is our time to shine," she said.
Prutchi volunteers in her community by offering technical support services to those who need it and delivering groceries to those who can't shop for themselves through Jewish Family and Children Services. As for her future plans, she aspires to be a cybersecurity consultant, performing risk analysis and penetration testing services for various organizations.
"There's no other way to live in a society than to think about other people," she emphasizes.

Priti Patel: It's time to stand up for Britain, spurn this dire deal – and trust our members
By Priti Patel MP
Follow @patel4witham
Priti Patel is MP for Witham, and a former Secretary of State for International Development.
Our Party is the greatest and most successful political Party in history. Nowhere in the world is there a political party with a better record of success at being democratically elected and running Government.
There's a reason for that. It is because our values chime with those of the British people. Therefore, as someone who is first and foremost a Conservative activist, I like many others feel the anger and frustration of our members and supporters with what is now happening over Brexit. Having come together to support the referendum that we promised in our 2015 Manifesto, we then outlined a clear vision for our future outside the EU while having a close and equal partnership. We took it to the people in 2017 and, while we suffered a difficult and bruising result as we lost our majority, we polled more votes and secured the highest vote share in a generation.
Even after that shock, we still pulled together and performed well for a governing party in last year's local elections. We were buoyed by what we saw as the Government's determination to fulfil its promise to the people and take us out of the EU on 29 March -with a deal agreed with the EU or without.
Like others, I believed from what the Government said that the national interest would be defended and the referendum result delivered. Acting in the national interest is fundamental to our DNA as a Party, and when a Conservative Government is standing up for the national interest it motivates and inspires all of us activists to knock on more doors, deliver more leaflets and raise more money.
However, since the deal with the EU was agreed, the attempts by the Government to impose it on our country have caused a level of anger that I have not seen in my 30 years as an activist. And the more Ministers become entrenched in their positions, the more our members are becoming dissatisfied and despondent. I believe that the capitulation to Brussels of the Government and the lack of faith in our democracy, freedom and country displayed by others has caused huge damage to our grassroots alongside the political games in Westminster which have sought to undermine the referendum result.
While Ministers get questioned by journalists in the comfort of TV and radio studios under a tight time limit, with a series of lines they can reel off, our volunteers and activists bear the brunt on the doorstep. On cold and wet mornings and evening they are out there knocking on doors relentlessly campaigning to get the Conservative message across and candidates elected in crucial council elections. And, on the doorsteps, wherever I have been, the state of Brexit has been just about the only subject voters want to speak about. Our activists want to persuade the public to vote in vital local elections to help us win councils and deliver good quality local services. But instead they are left to pick up the pieces of the great betrayal taking place in Westminster.
This week, the Government's effort to do a deal with Jeremy Corbyn has made their mood even worse. Those of us who were angered by the feeble negotiation with the EU are now livid because the Government is trusting a man who sides with the terrorists who attack our national interest, has let anti-Semitism run rife in the Labour Party, allows Labour supporters to launch vile attacks on us and would wreck our economy. This does not serve the national interest, and it is a huge political error to give Corbyn a voice and credibility when he has consistently flip-flopped on the EU and on Brexit.
We should never forget that while our country suffered the horrors of terror caused by the IRA, including the attack on our Party Conference in 1984 and the brutal murders of Conservative MPs, Corbyn was a terrorist sympathiser. Our members, volunteers and activists are doing all they can to keep this dangerous man and his vile allies out of power only to now see the Government start a love-in with him. The fact that the Government has fallen so out of touch with the mood of our own members is astonishing.
Now is the time to fulfil our promise to the people and leave the EU. We can and should do this on Friday – no more excuses, no more tricks – just Brexit and the unlocking of our country's freedom and our democracy. Leaving the EU on Friday would help us to bring the country together as well as galvanise our activists. We would deliver our promise on the biggest political issue we face. We can then the focus on the many other issues where Conservative policies are needed and which excite and animate our activists.
A renewed focus would also mean that the Party centrally ends the distain shown to our members. I have in previous articles on this site given my views on how the Party nationally should renew and trust the grassroots through genuine reform of the membership, electing the Party Chairman, hosting policy forums and holding a members day at Party conference.
Our members, like the British public, want to see a Conservative Government standing up for our country. They also want to see a it stand up for the values which we believe in – freedom, enterprise and opportunity. Those values are shared widely by the British people and resonate with them. We must enshrine them into the policies we pursue at a national and local level. Over the last eight years, we have introduced many reforms to help people to succeed. Raising the tax-free threshold to cut tax bills for millions, cutting taxes on business, keeping fuel duty down and supporting investment in businesses has helped our country establish a record number of businesses, supporting record numbers of people in work.
That record has never been more important than in the current political climate, when our country faces the threat posed by militant left-wingers. Socialism would reverse everything this country has gained from the 1980s on. The Conservative achievements of the last eight years, including record levels of employment, and the number of business and enterprise created, would be driven away – our defences shredded, our pride diminished and our country bankrupted.
We would instead go back to an era of anti-capitalist slogans and placards which might grab headlines but do not transform lives, create jobs, provide better public services or raise Britain's standing in the world. The upcoming electoral cycle should provide a strong platform to remind people of the very real dangers of the alternatives and to champion the cause of freedom in deeds as well as in words.
With our great country facing the threat of hard-left socialism from Corbyn's Labour Party, we need to give the public powerful and strong reasons to vote Conservative and support the Party that backs freedom, enterprise and opportunity. We must believe in our activists and get behind our members and supporters. Let's get Britain out of the EU on Friday, and energise our members with the Conservative values we share, to secure a better future for Britain.

Highgate Pre-Prep is celebrating a very special anniversary this year. The school was opened in 1993 so we are now twenty-five years old. To mark this event all the children in the Pre-Pre took part in a special summer show. Our drama teacher wrote a fantastic script highlighting significant historic events both nationally and at Highgate.
The Year 2 children took on various roles including the first Pre-Prep pupils, now aged thirty something, existing and former teachers, architects and Mr Pettitt, Mrs Hecht and Mr Kennedy, under whose headship the Pre-Prep was founded. Even The Queen made an appearance!
Nursery, Reception and Year 1 took us on a journey along a twenty-five-year time line, by performing poems and songs about the Channel Tunnel opening; The Millennium, the hottest day ever recorded in Britain; Highgate becoming co-educational; Ellen MacArthur's solo world record and London 2012.
Under the direction of our music teacher, the children sang a range of songs with highlights including the whole school singing a reworked and Pre-Prep-centric Mambo No. 5 and the finale, an energetic performance of S Club 7's Reach.
The audience loved the children's energetic and enthusiastic performance and left with huge smiles on their faces. They could all see how much has changed in the Pre-Prep over the last quarter of a century but left knowing that the warm, friendly and nurturing environment created by the school remains at its core.

Q: Advantages and Disadvantages of Apache vs. Your own server? I have been working on my own ssl based multi process multi file descriptor threaded server for a few weeks now, needless to say it can handle a good amount of punishment. I am writing it in C++ in an object oriented manner and it is nearly finished with signal handling (atomic access included) and exception / errno.h handled.
The goal is to use the server to make multi-player applications and games for Android/iOS. I am actually very close to the completion, but it recently occurred to me that I can just use Apache to accomplish that.
I tried doing some research but couldn't find anything so perhaps someone can help me decide weather I should finish my server and use that or use apache or whatever. What are the advantages and disadvantages of apache vs your own server?
Thank you to those who are willing to participate in this discussion!

A: We would need more details about what you intend to accomplish but I would go with Apache in any case if it matches your needs:

*

*it is battle tested for all kind of cases and loads

*you can benefit from all the available modules (see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/)

*you can benefit from regular security patches

*you don't have to maintain it yourself!

Hope this helps!

A: You can always write your own software even when perfectly well-proven alternatives exists, but you should be conscious about what are your reasons for doing so, and what are the costs.
For instance, your reasons could be:

*

*Existing software too slow/high latency/difficult to synchronize

*Existing software not extensible for my purpose

*Your needs don't overlap with the architecture imposed by the software - for instance if you need a P2P network, then a client/server-based HTTP protocol is not your best

*You just want to have fun exploring low-level protocols

I believe none of the above except possibly the last of these apply to your case, but you have not provided much details, so my apologies if I am wrong.
The costs could be:

*

*Your architecture might get muddled - for instance you can fall into the trap of having your server being too busy calculating if a gunshot hits the enemy, when 10 clients are trying to initiate a TCP connection, or a buffer overflow in your persistent storage routine takes down the whole server

*You spend time on lower level stuff when you should dealing with your game engine

*Security is hard to get right, it takes many man-years of intrusion testing and formal proofs (even if you are using openSSL)

*Making your own protocol means making your own bugs

*Your own protocol means you have to make your own debuggers (for instance you can't test using curl or trace using HTTP proxies)

*You have to solve many of the issues that have already been solved for the existing solution. For instance caching, authentication, redirection, logging, multi-node scaling, resource allocation, proxies

*For your own stuff you can only ask yourself for help

Q: Directive that run after ng-repeat I have similar problem with this one Calling a function when ng-repeat has finished but I have directive and ng-repeat inside.
<my-dropdown>

{{item.text}}

In my dropdown I have ng-transclude in two places (one for a list and one for caption) and I need to add class ng-hide to all items except one using jQuery. So I need to have the code that will run after ng-repeat. I've try to set priority in my directive to 2000 or 0 (ngRepeat have 1000) but this doesn't work. I've got one item when I run element.find('li');

Is Snow White the Fairest Feminist of Them All in "Mirror, Mirror?"
I predict in a not so distant future, kids today will grow up with far less fairy dust in their eyes than much of their older generation did. Thanks, in part, to darker, less shielded contributions to so-called family cinema like Hunger Games, they might actually end up craving edgier films that that avoid romanticizing life stories and just give them the hard cold truth.
Well, it's not the worse thing that could ever happen to them.
That said, there is something about director Tarsem Singh's Snow White-inspired Mirror, Mirror that offers the nostalgia of romance past blended with a cunning embrace of the new age that is so often missing in classic children's tales. Let's call it the reinvention of the family film.
Gone are the days when Snow White slips into a narcoleptic state after sweetly devouring a near rotten apple given to her by an evil queen, later only to be conveniently rescued by a beautiful prince. In Mirror, Mirror Lily Collins plays Snow White, who is wide awake and restless, eager to escape from the clutches of her wicked stepmother. She really learns the value of her own independence when she finds she must fight to defend herself when her wicked stepmother (Julia Roberts, in a pitch-perfect performance) orders her imminent death in the woods at the hands of her servant, Brighton (Nathan Lane). True to the original tale, Brighton finds himself enamored with Snow White's compassion and sets her free instead. After feeling momentarily abandoned by her new-found freedom, Snow White later seeks shelter at the hut of seven devious little bandits (not to be confused with dwarfs).
But unlike the classic story on which it's based, Mirror, Mirror's most accomplished twist comes not merely with the more feisty nature of Snow White's character, but the movie's feminist turn by which Snow White later ends up having to save her Prince Charming(Armie Hammer) from the despicable queen, not the other way around. Aside from the spot-on performances, this Snow White twist makes the movie far more than what it could have been.
Collins, who I once doubted could carry a movie, really swept me off my feet. She is elegant yet badass all at once, without losing her femininity. Playing a soft-spoken princess with a sharp edge is not an an easy task, but she pulls it off. But it is Roberts as the deliciously vile queen with a serious inferiority complex who really steals the show here. She is adequately irredeemable and, as one underling says in the movie, "radiates crazy." You can tell she was having a blast in the role, even when she is duped by her own reflection in a mirror. And Hammer is perfectly cast as the pretentious yet dopey prince. Hammer, who himself often comes off with a slight air of arrogance mixed with boyish charm, nailed the performance. So does Lane, whose bumbling diplomacy appropriately added a sense of fear and tension to Roberts' dastard queen.
In true Singh form, the audience is treated to a glorious spectacle from beginning to end. Vibrant imagery coupled with gorgeous costume designs capture the mood of the film, even when it goes down its darkest paths. Mirror, Mirror won't change your life, but it's a fun homage to a timeless classic that lets you escape into a fairy tale world, that actually doesn't seem to far away from here.

Seems this one is better than it looked at first.
I've heard really good things about this film. Though, I did think it was a bit odd to place Julia Roberts in the queen role. However, from the looks of the reviews it seems like it all came together. Good review, thanks for sharing! :)
Great review! I have been meaning to see this film but I think by now it's too late to catch it in theaters, I'll have to wait for the dvd release. Good to hear it's a more progressive take on the story!

The Han Solo Film's Failure Could Spell The End For Other Star Wars Spin-Offs
Hope you're all pleased with yourselves
By Tom Nicholson
After seeing the collective shrug which greeted Solo: A Star Wars Story, Lucasfilm has said there'll be no more Star Wars spin-offs for anybody.
According to Collider, the mooted Obi Wan Kenobi and Boba Fett films which were being developed have been shelved by Lucasfilm, which has decided, after repeated slaps from fans and critics, to turn this car around and head back to Winnipeg to focus on making the final part of JJ Abrams' trilogy instead.
George Lucas Had a Plan For Star Wars 7-9
After a particularly fraught production process during which original directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller were sacked, Ron Howard was brought in and the final act was overhauled, Solo: A Star Wars Story made $84 million on its opening weekend and has made about $343 million worldwide since, putting it way behind the previous Star Wars spin-off Rogue One which opened to $155 million and made $424 million in America alone.
There is, though, going to be a new trilogy of Star Wars films which will follow characters introduced in the latest trilogy, which will be put together by The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson.

Q: Tkinter Button to have on and off function with single mouse click I am building an app in tkinter and i am using custom built buttons that i have created in illustrator. I want my button to behave as follows: 1. Button in 'off' position, 2. mouse enters button screen space and is clicked. 3. button turns on for 0.1 seconds, then turns off again. In order to achieve this, i use an 'off' image of button. When the left mouse button is clicked over the button image, the program changes the image of the button to 'on' image. then after some time say 0.1 seconds, the image switches back to 'off' position. to give a bit of context the button in question is like a selector with up and down arrows, pressing an arrow will show the relevant arrow light up, and some current selection will be changed to the next available selection.
I am having trouble doing this, no matter how i organise my code, putting 'off image', 'on image', 'off image' just shows the off image all of the time.
the code below is a succinct version of my code. I would like to point out that i am aware that how the code is written at the moment, will cause the off image to show, because im re assigning it to the 'off' image instantly :) this is just to show the example.
from tkinter import *
from PIL import ImageTk, Image

# TKINTER WINDOW
root = Tk()
root.title("example")
w=1200
h=800
ws = root.winfo_screenwidth()
hs = root.winfo_screenheight()
x = (ws/2) - (w/2)
y = (hs/2) - (h/2)
root.geometry('%dx%d+%d+%d' % (w, h, x, y))

off_image = ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.open("example_img1.png"))
on_image = ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.open("example_img2.png"))

on_off_image_list = [off_image, on_image]

on_off_button = Label(image=on_off_image_list[0])

def on_off_func(event):

    on_off_button = Label(image=on_off_image_list[1])
    on_off_button.bind("<Button-1>", on_off_func)
    on_off_button.place(x=100, y=100)

    # NEED SOME CODE HERE THAT ENABLES THE ABOVE (ON IMAGE ) TO BE SHOWN
    # THEN SHOW THE ORIGINAL (OFF IMAGE) AGAIN

    on_off_button = Label(image=on_off_image_list[0])
    on_off_button.bind("<Button-1>", on_off_func)
    on_off_button.place(x=100, y=100)

on_off_button.bind("<Button-1>", on_off_func)
on_off_button.place(x=100, y=100)

root.mainloop()

A: First: you need to configure the existing Label with the config method, NOT make a new Label to cover up the old one. Second: You need to use the after method to schedule the reset in 0.1 seconds (100 milliseconds). Like this:
from tkinter import *
from PIL import ImageTk, Image

# TKINTER WINDOW
root = Tk()
root.title("example")
root.geometry('200x200')

off_image = ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.open("example_img1.png"))
on_image = ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.open("example_img2.png"))

def reset(event=None):
    on_off_button.config(image=off_image)

def on_click(event=None):
    on_off_button.config(image=on_image)
    on_off_button.after(100, reset) # run the reset in 100 milliseconds

on_off_button = Label(image=off_image)
on_off_button.bind("<Button-1>", on_click)
on_off_button.pack()

root.mainloop()

However this is really an ideal place to make a small custom widget. Your own type of button. If you want to jump in the deep end, here's how you would do that:
import tkinter as tk # PEP8 compliant import style
from PIL import ImageTk, Image
from functools import lru_cache

@lru_cache(None)
def load_img(filename):
    """fast loading of repeated images"""
    return ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.open(filename))

class CustomButton(tk.Label):
    def __init__(self, master=None, command=None, **kwargs):
        self.command = command
        self.off_image = load_img("example_img1.png")
        self.on_image = load_img("example_img2.png")
        super().__init__(master, image=self.off_image, **kwargs)
        self.bind("<Button-1>", self.on_click)

    def reset(self, event=None):
        self.config(image=self.off_image)

    def on_click(self, event=None):
        self.config(image=self.on_image)
        if self.command: self.command()
        self.after(100, self.reset) # run the reset in 100 milliseconds

# EXAMPLE USE TKINTER WINDOW
root = tk.Tk()
root.title("example")
root.geometry('200x200')

button1 = CustomButton(root)
button1.pack()
button2 = CustomButton(root)
button2.pack()
button3 = CustomButton(root)
button3.pack()

root.mainloop()

Buena Park School District Kicks Off 2020-21 School Year
BUENA PARK, CA – Buena Park School District started the new school year with a series of lively drive-through welcoming events, where students were cheered onto campuses by teachers and received iPads, books and other materials to use during distance learning.
Each school was decorated with colorful banners to mark the start of the 2020-21 school year as teachers and administrators handed out supplies. Staff, students and their families wore masks and followed social distancing rules to maintain safety.
The District has started the school year with distance learning as part of its five-phase plan to mitigate COVID-19 illnesses. Distance learning will continue until the California Department of Public Health ensures that student and staff safety can be guaranteed in Orange County.
"Buena Park School District, specifically Emery School, did a phenomenal job of communicating with parents and families for the new school year," said Anthony White, parent of Emery School first-grader Anthony White II. "The District did an amazing job anticipating the challenges of online learning and I'm grateful that our children are being safe while they're being educated."
Anthony White II said he's excited to start first grade and is looking forward to excelling in math and English language arts. In fact, Anthony said he's already started reading some of the books and materials he received during the distribution event.
Emery School Principal Julie Linnecke said the distribution events were important because it gave teachers and students the chance to meet face-to-face and build a rapport with a friendly hello.
"The Emery staff really wanted the opportunity to meet their students and provide them with the materials they would need at home," Linnecke said. "It was heartwarming to see them begin to develop relationships even though it was from a social distance."
Corey School Principal LaRonda Ortega said in addition to creating bonds with students, it is important to create working relationships with parents because parent-teacher communication is key to boosting student achievement.
"We were thrilled to see so many smiling students and parents during our distribution events, because it shows how strong our community is in the Buena Park School District," Superintendent Dr. Ramon Miramontes said. "These are challenging times, but I know that our students, parents and staff are ready to continue igniting their passion for learning during another amazing school year."

100 Churches 100 Years
Hardcover, 208 pages
By C20
Following on from 100 Buildings 100 Years and 100 Houses 100 Years, this book features 100 churches built since 1914, showing the development of modern church architecture in Britain. They include some of the most iconic buildings of the period, from Basil Spence's Coventry Cathedral of 1962 to Giles Gilbert Scott's Liverpool Cathedral in 1978. Alongside the more famous churches, there is the abandoned brutalist St Peter's Seminary of 1966 and more recently built churches, such as the light-filled Bishop Edward King Chapel of 2013. The book features churches, mosques and synagogues, and the featured architects include George Pace, Eric Gill and Frederick Gibberd. The book also includes essays about prolific architecture practices, particular aspects of the buildings such as stained glass, twentieth-century fixtures and fittings, the art and artefacts found in the churches, and the influence of European architects such as Le Corbusier and Alvar Aalto on modern churches. The texts are written by leading design and architecture historians including Elain Harwood, Alan Powers and Clare Price. Beautiful photography throughout showcases the very best of British church design, whether it is the minimal symmetry of a timber-framed altar, or light streaming in through a multi-coloured stained glass panel.

Increased umbilical cord pressure for one twin. Twins born at 33 weeks + 3 days.
Being diagnosed with increased umbilical cord pressure for one twin.
Our pregnancy was not easy. It started with Twin B being in the 5th percentile for growth. Skip ahead to 24 weeks pregnant and an ultrasound found increased umbilical cord pressure for one twin (Twin B – Logan). We were transferred from Werribee Mercy Hospital to Sunshine Hospital. Here they also found Twin A (James) has craniosynostosis (part of the skull already fused) and Logan was still extremely small. They decided to do an amniocentesis. We feared there were some big chromosome issues with Logan and James. Thankfully this came back all good.
At 30 weeks the increased umbilical cord pressure for Logan, saw extra fluid in his sac. We were transferred to the women's hospital. At 31 weeks I was admitted to the hospital with threatened pre-term labour, however was discharged after a few days. A couple of days later, the umbilical cord pressure for Logan had gone up again, so they decided I need to stay in hospital until the boys were born. They said this was to be no later than 34 weeks.
On the day I was 33 weeks and 3 days an ultrasound showed more increased umbilical cord pressure for one twin. It was decided that I was to have my boys that day!
Our boys were delivered on the 31/518 at 16:41 weighing 1.9 kgs (James) and 16:43 weighing 1.3kgs (Logan) via c-section. Logan required CPAP after delivery and James was doing pretty well.
I had a postpartum bleed of 1.1liters. James was in NICU for 3 weeks and his journey was very smooth. However after being home with him for a week he became so unwell with bronchiolitis he was sent to the Royal Children's Hospital.
I was also in hospital again with placenta accreta (not picked up during pregnancy). 5 days later James finally came home again. Logan however was in NICU for 5 weeks and was very up and down, he kept dropping his heart rate and oxygen levels all the time and had emergency calls about 2 times a day. Every time my phone rang I was scared of what they would say. Finally we got to bring him home.
We had both our boys home together for a week. Then Logan was taken to the Royal Children's Hospital with pneumonia and was there for 10 days!
It was an extremely hard time for us but now our boys are doing so well and are happy and healthy. We are now just waiting for James to have a big surgery on his head when he is 8 months corrected.

Suzanne Nadine Vega, née le  à Santa Monica (Californie), est une autrice-compositrice-interprète américaine.

Biographie

Jeunesse
Suzanne Vega nait le  à Santa Monica (Californie), mais elle déménage avec sa mère et son beau-père à New York où elle vit dans un quartier défavorisé. À l'âge de neuf ans, elle commence à écrire des poèmes et compose sa première chanson à quatorze ans. Elle est élève à la New York High School of Performing Arts où elle apprend la danse moderne.

La musique reste néanmoins son domaine de prédilection. Alors qu'elle se spécialise en littérature anglaise au Barnard College de l'université Columbia, elle se produit dans de petites salles de Greenwich Village, en particulier au Cornelia Street Café.

Début
Son premier album, Suzanne Vega, sorti en 1985, est bien reçu par la critique, avec ses chansons simples, à l'opposé de l'injonction du milieu des années 1980 : « de plus en plus gros ». Ce ne sont pas des chansons militantes au sens classique du terme, mais des chansons introspectives, à la manière des auteurs-compositeurs des années 1970.

Succès
Dans son deuxième album, Solitude Standing (1987) deux tubes ont émergé :  et Luka. Ce dernier titre raconte le point de vue d'un enfant maltraité (Luka), sujet singulier pour un morceau de pop. La musique est beaucoup plus orientée pop que dans son premier album.

Le troisième album de Suzanne Vega,  (1990) annonce un changement de style : la musique devient plus expérimentale et les paroles expriment plus d'émotion. L'album ne comporte pas réellement de tube, il doit plutôt être écouté dans son ensemble.

L'album 99.9F° ( Fahrenheit, soit ), sorti en 1992, est un mélange joyeux et éclectique de folk, de rythmes de dance et de musique industrielle, qui contraste avec l'album précédent. Les chansons sont courtes et les paroles concentrées.

Elle enregistre, en 1995, , une chanson de Leonard Cohen qui figure sur la compilation-hommage Tower of Song : The Songs of Leonard Cohen. Elle enregistre également , toujours de Leonard Cohen, en collaboration avec John Cale.

Le cinquième album, , sort en 1996, la musique alterne entre un style dépouillé et le style industriel de . Cet album contient Caramel, utilisé dans la bande originale du film Entre chiens et chats. Elle écrit également  (), pour la bande originale du film La Dernière Marche ().

L'album  voit le jour en , dont le thème principal est le divorce de Suzanne et de son ex-mari, le producteur Mitchell Froom.

Rétrospective
Une compilation, , sort en 2003, contenant vingt-et-une de ses chansons les plus populaires (la version pour le Royaume-Uni inclut un disque bonus de huit chansons ainsi qu'un DVD de douze chansons).

 sort en , album de rock alternatif, de pop et de funk. Calme et impulsif, il reflète bien l'œuvre de Suzanne Vega. Elle a repris deux chansons célèbres,  de Jerry Garcia et Cassidy de Bob Weir, parues sur , un album de reprises de Grateful Dead, sorti en 1991.

Vie privée
Suzanne Vega a une fille, Ruby Froom. Elle a épousé le producteur Mitchell Froom, dont elle divorce en 1998.

Elle épouse Paul Mills, un avocat, le .

MP3
Sa chanson  a été utilisée comme référence lors de la création du format audio MP3. Suzanne Vega a appris ce fait par hasard en 2000 : alors qu'elle déposait sa fille à la maternelle, le papa d'un autre enfant l'interpella et lui dit « Mes félicitations à la mère du MP3 ! »

2 days ago, I noticed my display was flickering with a thin vertical stripe on the right third of the screen and a pink/green 1 inch band at the bottom screen that flickers. (I have had this laptop for about 2 1/2 months). I have updated all recommended drivers, followed the tips on deleting display driver software and updating, uninstalled some game apps and any that appeared to have installed (3D builder) just prior to the issue. I uninstalled some of the games and reinstalled a few. I do not have Norton, icloud or IDT apps on the laptop that are listed as potential conflicts with Windows 10. I am still under warranty. Is there anything else I can try or do I send it back to Lenovo?
You can try to check if you have the same flickering line when connected to an external monitor.
Compare it when you start your computer in the BIOS if the flickering line is visible.
To go to the BIOS , shut down the machine and use the novo button (item 2 page 11) for the Novo button and choose BIOS set up option taking note of the issue on each screen.
If the line shows in the Novo menu or BIOS and not in the external then it most probable be the LCD screen/ cable.
Call in technical support so you can discuss the action plan to proceed.

Urban frontier; The people who live on ladders
The National Association of educational broadcasters resents the people who live on lotteries. On examination of the role of the consumer in the modern American city one of a series of programs titled The Urban Frontier. Once upon a time there was a little store. It lived by the side of the road.
With farms all around. As far as you could see to the little store came all of the people from all of the Far East. You open for business today Jared. Yes in the little store there were three barrels one for pickles and one for flour. We knew just taught them to hide and one for crackers. And as soggy as I was a couple of weeks ago heat drying them out all of the people from all of the farms came to the little store to buy the things that they needed. First of all I want to get my daughter Lizzie a balloon this time better give me one of the red ones. Right and they came to sell things too for I forget my corn will be ready in a couple weeks. What kind you got. All three kinds. Eating feeding them
for them to live to drink can bring along for 5000 years and then about three gallons going to make a batch of tonic. Nope. We like to have it for the drummers that come through. Makes them get really careless like. But mostly all of the people from all of the farms came to the little store to learn about all of the other people from all of the other farms. So although we don't Maison down the street pound in nails she was in a while ago. But one of our St. Louis hats eight or ten penny why did she do that I wonder as a tenpenny can't see at least not right off if you know what I mean. He's back. Let season three and so on here. Course he don't come around here no more black or white. Nettie Carson drops in every day or so and now she won't even speak to him. Fine girl a daughter of Carsons in the black. Too good for the likes of him if you know what I mean. Oh yeah he's a wild one. It's that Thompson blood he used to know is dead.
Three or four sticks of that liquor. They did rest in spite of anything your mother could say you want to give it to your girls on the way home or shall I hide it under the flower and it now is a fine girl. Guess it made everybody mad as hops when he humiliated her like that in a way you know it was her own fault she didn't have to let him and bought five pounds of coffee I'm going to have some hands and I need anybody to give me half a pound. Maybe now it could a controlled thing a little better at least that's what I told her. Nellie don't you let that boy go too far away all she did and he didn't. Yep that ain't never going to have no daughter mine no boy let her hold her hand through him sing and hold it for three Sundays runnin without asking her to marry him was it three some days Mrs. Sol three Sundays running man it's a she never was a nice girl tell you what you might do but to give me a new box of shells from a 12 gauge birdshot. You worried about your Lizzie in that Thompson boy. New thinking about them drummers.
And so it was in the little store by the side of the road when most of the people were farmers and their farmers were all around the little store as far as you could see. We will call these people the people who lived on farms the people who lived on farms bought things to use. They bought things as things and never got the mixed up with people. But soon the little store grew and other people came to buy things. And these were different people very different from the people who lived on farms. These were the people who lived in crowds. When a hello how are you today. It's certainly good to see you here. We like to please all our customers all of the time. Can you tell me what all the other people are buying. Well certainly now first of all here is this season's color. Yeah yeah. That's a car. It's called The morning after the night before.
It makes one a little queasy when you first see it. Yes but everyone gets used to it. Everyone's wearing it. Everyone's using it for everything everyone. But of course not everyone. It's frankly too good for some people. If you know what I mean. Who's buying. Everyone who is anyone. Give me a for instance. Well Mrs. Black has her entire living room painted. Who will the bill dream selected as their bedroom cause you know you'll admit that they are somebody I've heard of them who else that George cougars the Sam Myers doctor Mrs. Blaisdell twig. Well you must have heard and still looks well you know yes I do. Mrs. Mrs. Smith with a y. Mrs. Smart. Yeah that's right. We may put an E on it. Well as I was saying everyone who is anyone anyone at all this is frankly their color. Oh ok I'm so high I knew you were somebody I knew you were the moment you walked in. Nice to be known in the place one freak.
You know where you hang out to buy things. Yes. Now then how about drapes. Yeah so I guess we'll have to have everyone done and some bedspread and how about carpeting. Certainly furniture will get to the details later that cause that costs a lot of money. Just the larger pieces you know to go with the drapes a half to Mrs.. Everyone who is after all anybody everyone without exception the Thomases the dark liners the whites and Tilly Jones tell you Jones lives right next door. Not just ima just take a moment. What would she think what would she think Mrs. Smyth if your furniture didn't. Well she could after all come to only one conclusion. If you know what I mean. Yeah but that matters mind you do have an account here. Yeah but then how are all you really have to worry about is what would people think if Terry Jones does if she has already. And if you if you don't. Could be pretty bad how. I don't think I need to tell
you how bad it would be. OK Frank your that and door knobs light fixtures patio. If we got a we got now then how about your own personal wardrobe and your husband's ties his socks shirts a suit or two. And what about your children. You will want them to look like everybody else. Yeah well I guess I better but this is the season. Everyone but everyone is where do I go if we go out and if you didn't what would people think. We have departments for everything we do have an account. We were certainly doing this is an AM why. My. Say wait a minute you on second thought put any on. We certainly will be. A little. Story grew and grew. And the people who lived in crowds bought and bought. And the more they bought the bigger the little store group. And the more they bought the more they grew to.
It all had to do with the Joneses and you know how many Joneses there were the Joneses were everywhere. The Joneses where everybody and soul to be safe to keep people from thinking what people would think. All of the people who lived in crowds had to buy the same things that were bought by all of the other people who lived in crowds all except the Joneses and the Joneses were very different from the people who lived in crops. The Joneses lived on a ladder. And they were looking constantly as were all of the other people who lived on ladders looking and looking and mostly they were looking at the people who lived in magazines. The Stones I'm sure you saw the article in memsahib magazine for office workers. That's the only reason I came to your wretched little store.
Of course it is but you must remember we did bring you the season's color months ahead of anyone else but my dear boy that was simply years ago. Morning after is now too too cliche to say you certainly are things you probably don't even know that the Morgan Lamb Well Jay ps of Long Island in Tampa have already switched to search. You don't say she's doing everything simply everything in search. There was a big article in now which was oh yes a better house and lot the magazine for couples who can afford it. Here is an article on this is Cornelius builder a fan of Bar Harbor Town. And nice how nice this is a pre-publication as a matter of fact these are the galley proofs. The issue hasn't even been predicted I have related here. Well I like this magazine. Yes bad aboard the magazine for women who know it's very dependable. Yes it is so much better than existence for young newlywed and so much faster than the Ladies Home Ledger the magazine for women.
Well you know what I really came to see you about is an article but now you mustn't breathe this to us so I will. I have a friend in New York she works for live kid the magazine for old married couple. Not so loud. I don't want everyone just everyone every old biddy in the store to hear me. Of course you know my friend tells me that next year's color is going to be sort of yes. O o t the personality black. This may be a little advanced for us of course it is but Mrs. Aster Pfeiffer of Long Island the castle Cranston's of San Francisco and the colonel cornpone lees of Atlanta have gone to us. Yes and furthermore lift kit is going to do an entire issue. No I want your decorator at my place tomorrow but we haven't a thing in this house your voice. We don't have a thing on TV. You get it. We certainly will. And we certainly appreciate your time. Listen you don't you tell us no
not living. No not until I look after our places than you. Well as you demand then you just do your own itsy bitsy judgment. I couldn't stop you from just telling everyone anyone at all but everyone but you bravest to a cotton pickin soul buster and brain you. The people who lived on ladders were wearing tents about the things that they bought and the people who lived in magazines. They really didn't exist at all. But the people who lived on ladders thought they did. And that was enough. You see the people who lived on ladders had very little time to do anything anything at all except play a very complicated game a game called points
points was played with the things you bought. It was a complicated game because everybody kept score on everybody else and you could never tell what your own score was and you could never be sure whether you were making points or losing them. Mrs. Jones played points with Mrs. Crofton on the way home from the store. Harriet I went to the opera again last night and the tenant was a guest today. Mrs. Kraft and has only been to the opera once this season so. Mrs. craft and gives Mrs. Jones five points. It was such a nice evening we decided to take the station wagon. Mr. Kraft and hasn't yet bought a station wagon. Furthermore the craftsman's only have one car.
So like it or not. However in this particular session Mrs. Jones pushed her luck a little too far. You know when you feel so exposed somehow sitting there in a station wagon wearing Now this was a very grave error on Mrs. Jones part for you see Mrs. craft and had an ermine wrap with the result. The people who lived on ladders played points with everything everything that they bought everything that they paid their money for. We've decided to send our oldest boy to Harvard. We haven't told him yet. It'll have to wait till we get back from vacation. The Bahamians you know.
Taking the whole family. We should have time to talk it out with him. We'll be there for one full month you know. The craft and family will be spending two full months in Mexico as we were saying points with a very complicated game. Even if you had amassed a tremendous total against an opponent's pitiful showing you could never be sure that your opponent wouldn't cancel your score in what was called the little things forfeit. Now here's an example. This is exactly what happened after Mrs. Jones has dropped Mrs. Crofton at her home and after by all rights Mrs. Crofton had won the match so she can have CAD Eldorado. Her ermine wrap her two months in Mexico her swimming pool her five
bedroom cottage. But you should see the fingernail polish she uses when glass shade. And with that Mrs. Kraft and didn't have a point to her name. Not with Mrs. Jones she did. I guess that after all she's just not oh kind of people. Well you can imagine what happened when a lot of people who lived on ladders got together. Then the game really became complicated when you were hearing this. You knew very well that this was going on too. Just for the life of you you could never find out for sure what your score was or just where you stood on your ladder. This is why Mrs. Jones was so tense in the store.
She was hoping to score many many points with many many people and yet she couldn't be sure because points was such a complicated game. Now the people who lived on ladders were not the only people to play this game but they did have their own special rules the more of thing cost the more points you scored. Yet this was not the way some people played the game. Some people were more relaxed much more relaxed. And these were the people who lived on platforms. They might be above the people who lived on ladders or they might be below them it really didn't make any difference wherever they were the people who lived on platforms could be sure of one thing no matter how many points they won or lost. Their platform would stay right where it was. With the result
that they were very relaxed. Alfred you know I'm not going to buy another sports car. I don't know yet Marty. I find myself thinking about it and thinking about it. Or. Move over most a week. How many does that make this year. Five. No I guess it's a rule of law it's code. There's probably something wrong with you. Something's seriously wrong. Yes there is but I have this compulsion to buy sports cars. I really have no use for them but well I buy them. I've been thinking of getting a thundercloud name. You haven't had one yet. New ones have before you any block dust in a tube. I understand they really od beautiful little machine bronze bushings though and no one ever asks you for a ride over where you're going. I find this very relaxing.
This compulsion Alfred what do you think it means. Oh. I don't know I have to psychiatry is where he got it. So far they haven't been able to come up with a thing. They probably won't. They never do for me. I've been thinking of getting because people were psychiatry's But you go to Earth instead. I really don't know. Don't don't which down to go to Paris. Why not now. It's very well and good. Don't tourists Spain bad roads. Britain crowded very well the whole dolo me too. You see my problem this compulsion is about all I have right know Gwendolyn very expensive but that's the trouble nowadays.
Everything that costs money is either dull uncomfortable or neurotic. What a brilliant analysis. But think about it some time. Let's do the other. We really should. I think why bother at. All. Now with the people who lived on platforms it wasn't the buying or the having that scored the points. It was the way you went about it. It was the style that counted and there were two basic styles. The casual Alfred was casual and the expert Monte was expert Alfred was being very casual when he said Over thinking of getting a couple more psychiatry's but I may just go to
Paris instead. Oh you really don't know. But Monte recovered very nicely with all his travel information. Remember Nats in Paris. Tourists in Italy. The roads in Spain and crowds in Britain however Monte's big triumph came when. That's the trouble nowadays. Everything that costs money is either dull uncomfortable or neurotic. Everything you wanted to buy he had covered it all and as casual as he was Alfred had to admit it. That's a very brilliant analysis but let's think about it some time. A lot of points were made and lost in this session. And even though we might guess who won. Let's make sure. With a very quick totaling.
Monte 55. Alfred 61 which is something we already know in most contests of this type. The casual style had a tremendous advantage for if you were casual enough you could infect your opponent. You could make him relax and break up his game entirely. For one thing about the expert he had to be intense. He had so much to remember and when he could remember it he was out terror. When he came to the store he was even worse. The survey from my third twist. Yes I know but this Macron fiber that this firm uses is made by the old flood choicer daily processes it is I mean it was yes it is only thirty eight
point one 5 7 2 0 percent of the photos islands of the smack are introduced by the new edge time and labeling process. Furthermore the affirmation of the individual fibers is not stable or even predictable. Let me show you another suit. Now no no this is a good value a good buy for the money we have some of the best names just look at the letter all the same all the others are made of smack and loomed by this Michael Jan Mills twist is all wrong as shown by some really independent testing laboratory is that fact and every call you have there is a poly diet of floral so Fonda may die. Are you sure every one of them. It's just terrible. How could our buyer. No no that's good. You don't say. Now if they were handled by the crime stats formula. Yeah that would be bad. Over they were they were I'm sure they were. Now if you'll excuse me other customers you know. But if the crime stats formerly were altered by the Crandell additive excuse then the only worry is will it. Frank in the sunlight part of
course it won't if the color is fixed in a Samsung bath or if it has been given the tele Smith the Mercian look. Take take the suit take it it's a gift. If on the other hand these suits were de wrinkle lies down the new Flegel marking machines. Well you just never can tell. And if they had the tele Smith on top of that sad gift I'll pay for it. Take it buster it's your suit. Suit this you don't want a suit I just came in for some war surplus denims. Wait a minute. Come back here I want to. They're. Going to do some gardening. 34 36 stop a. Running the denims over. There. One thing about the people who lived on platforms whether they were the casuals Alfred was casual or the experts. He was an expert. They did enjoy the things they bought which is more than you can say for the people who lived on farms. Of course the people who lived on farms did enjoy the other people who lived on farms but people who lived
in crowds and the people who lived on ladders. Well they always had problems. The people who lived in crowds had to keep other people from thinking what other people would think. And the people who lived on ladders could never be sure where they were or where they were going. They couldn't tell whether they were going up. Or whether they were going down. But the people who lived on platforms they could relax they weren't going to fall off. And when they did buy something they bought what they wanted no more no less. Of course there were other people who came to the store. These were the hybrid people who lived on clouds. The people who
lived on clouds were called hybrids because they were both casual and expert. They were really casual because they never played points. Well hardly ever. And they were really experts because they never got things mixed up with people. Well practically never. But the hybrid people who lived on clouds were very very rare. They may not have existed at all and we couldn't really say they did except for the legends they started. Some of them started in Texas. If I know them well as a minor flaw and 80000 barrels a day but I still live my 36 Dodge pickup takes me where I want to go and I figure that's all a car should do. Some of the legends came out of Chicago. I tell you son. I wear tennis shoes to the office because they're cheap and they don't hurt my feet. Other legends came out of Hollywood. When they make another good picture
I figure I'll go see it. And even out of New York don't figure I need that big place out in the country just to show off to my friends gave me nothing but trouble anyway. Think I'll live right here middle of town smack dab next to my money. The hybrid people who lived on clouds were very very rare. But they bothered all of the people who lived on ladders as well as the people who lived in crowds and sometimes even the people who lived on platforms. But most of all they bothered the little store sold a little store when it became a big store always said that the legends were merely rumors. So everybody forgot them. Today you can't tell whether there were ever really any
hybrid people who lived on clouds or not because now everybody is the same. There are no more people who lived on farms. They moved to the city. The people who lived in crowds and the people who lived on ladders together with the people who lived on platforms are all mixed together. We're all the same and now we are known as the consumers who buy on credit or the people who live on charge account. Good night. You have been listening to the people who live on ladders and examination of the role of the consumer in the modern American city.

We assessed reproductive status, fecundity, egg size, and spawning dynamics of shovelnose sturgeon Scaphirhynchus platorynchus in the lower Platte River. Shovelnose sturgeon were captured throughout each year during 2011 and 2012 using a multi-gear approach designed to collect a variety of fish of varying sizes and ages. Fish were collected monthly for a laboratory assessment of reproductive condition. Female shovelnose sturgeon reached fork length at 50% maturity (FL50) at 547 mm and at a minimum length of 449 mm. The average female spawning cycle was 3–5 years. Mean egg count for adult females was 16 098 ± 1103 (SE), and mean egg size was 2.401 ± 0.051 (SE) mm.

Total fecundity was positively correlated with length (r2 = 0.728; P < 0.001), mass (r2 = 0.896; P < 0.001), and age (r2 = 0.396; P = 0.029). However, fish size and age did not correlate to egg size (P > 0.05). Male shovelnose sturgeon reached FL50 at 579 mm and at a minimum length of 453 mm. The average male spawning cycle was 1–2 years. Reproductively viable male and female sturgeon occurred during the spring (March–May) and autumn (September–October) in both years, indicating spring and potential autumn spawning events. Shovelnose sturgeon in the lower Platte River are maturing at a shorter length and younger age compared to populations elsewhere. Although it is unknown if the change is plastic or evolutionary, unfavorable environmental conditions or over-harvest may lead to hastened declines compared to other systems.

New York Mets Hall of Fame
Gerald Wayne Grote (born October 6, 1942) is an American former professional baseball player. He played the majority of his Major League Baseball career as a catcher for the New York Mets, catching every inning of the franchise's first two World Series appearances, and would appear in two more World Series for the Los Angeles Dodgers. He was a two-time All-Star for the National League and is regarded as one of the best defensive catchers of his era.[1][2]
Early life[edit]
Grote was raised in San Antonio, Texas. When he was ten years old, he and his family were caught in an F-4 tornado. His mother, father and two sisters made it to safety, however, he lost his grandmother in the storm.[3] Grote attended Douglas MacArthur High School, where he played on the baseball team as a pitcher, catcher and third baseman.[4] As a high school pitcher, he threw a no-hitter and a one hitter.[4] Grote played for Trinity University in 1962, and led the Tigers in batting average (.413), home runs (five), RBI (19), runs (29), and hits (31).[5]
Major League career[edit]
Houston Colt .45s[edit]
After one season at Trinity University, Grote was signed as an amateur free agent by the Houston Colt .45s in 1962, and was assigned to play for their minor league affiliate, the San Antonio Bullets.[4] At the age of 20, he made his major league debut with the Colt .45s on September 21, 1963 as a late-inning defensive replacement for John Bateman, and hit a sacrifice fly to score Bob Aspromonte in his only at-bat.[6] For the season he appeared in three games, including on September 27, when every starter in the Colts' line-up was a rookie.[7]
In 1964, Grote platooned with Bateman behind the plate; however, the Colts also experimented with young catchers Dave Adlesh and John Hoffman, as neither Grote nor Bateman hit for a very high average that season (.181 and .190, respectively).[4] Grote was the Colts' catcher on April 23, when Ken Johnson became the first pitcher in major league history to lose a complete game no-hitter in nine innings.[8]
In 1965, the newly renamed Houston Astros remained unsettled behind the plate, with former All-Star Gus Triandos and prospect Ron Brand being added to the mix. Grote spent the entire season with Houston's Triple-A Pacific Coast League affiliate, the Oklahoma City 89ers, where he batted .265 with eleven home runs. At the end of the season, he was traded to the New York Mets for pitcher Tom Parsons.[9]
New York Mets[edit]
Grote became the starting catcher for the Mets immediately upon his arrival in New York City. Though he batted only .237 with three home runs in 1966, his handling of the Mets' young pitchers and his solid defensive skills were instrumental in helping the Mets avoid 100 losses and a last place finish for the first time in franchise history.[10] Grote earned a reputation with his teammates and opponents as highly competitive, developing the trademark of rolling the ball to the far side of the pitcher's mound (closest to the Mets' dugout) while leaving the field after his pitcher ended an inning with a strikeout. This necessitated the opposing team's pitcher having to walk further to stoop and retrieve the ball.
In 1968, Grote was hitting over .300 at mid-season and was recognized as one of the top catchers in the National League when he was selected to be the starting catcher in the 1968 All-Star Game.[11][12] He became only the second Met player in franchise history after Ron Hunt to earn a starting role in an All-Star game.[13] Grote was hitless in two at-bats during the game.[12] He ended the year with a .282 batting average along with three home runs and 31 runs batted in.[1]
The 1969 season would be a memorable one for Grote and the Mets. The Chicago Cubs had been in first place since the beginning of the season and had a nine-game lead as late as August 15.[14] However, the Cubs began to falter while the Mets continued to play well. When the two teams met for a two-game series on September 8, the Mets won both games to move just a half game behind the Cubs.[15] Aside from calling Tom Seaver's five-hit pitching performance in the second game, Grote drove in the Mets' seventh and final run of the game.[16] The following day, the Mets swept the Montreal Expos in a doubleheader, with Grote catching all 21 innings. Coupled with a Cubs loss, the Mets moved into first place for the first time in their history. The Mets stayed in the lead for the rest of the season, finishing with a 37–11 record in their final 48 games while the Cubs slumped to a 9–17 record in their final 26 games, and clinched the National League Eastern Division title on September 24.[17][18]
Grote finished the season with a .252 average and produced career-highs with six home runs and 40 runs batted in, but it was his defensive skills that proved most valuable for the Mets.[1][19] Grote posted a .991 fielding percentage and his 56.3% caught stealing percentage was second-best among National League catchers.[20] He was also given credit for guiding the Mets young pitching staff that led the league in victories and shutouts and finished second in team earned run average.[4][21]
The Mets went on to sweep the Atlanta Braves in the 1969 National League Championship Series, but were heavy underdogs heading into the 1969 World Series against the Baltimore Orioles. Following a 4–1 loss in the series opener with Cy Young award winner Seaver on the mound, it seemed as if the Mets had little chance against the Orioles.[22] However, the Mets bounced back, winning the next four games to capture their first world championship.[23] Besides catching every inning in the postseason, Grote contributed offensively with a single in Game Two to keep a ninth inning rally alive and Al Weis followed with the game-winning hit.[24] With Game Four tied, Grote doubled to start the tenth inning, then pinch runner Rod Gaspar scored the winning run when an errant throw hit J.C. Martin on the wrist.[25] With Grote calling the pitches, the Mets pitching staff held the Orioles hitters to a .146 batting average during the series.[26]
Grote and the 1969 Mets became an improbable part of baseball history. In their previous seven seasons the Mets had finished in last place five times. Their sudden turn of fortune in 1969 and their subsequent upset victory in the World Series stunned the sports world and became one of the more storied events in baseball lore.[27] The team became known as the Miracle Mets.[27]
Grote continued to provide the Mets with good defense, leading National League catchers in 1970 and 1971 in putouts and in range factor.[28][29] In 1972, Grote played in only 64 games due to injuries and in late September he had surgery to remove bone chips from his right elbow.[4]
In May 1973, Grote broke a bone in his right arm when he was hit by a pitch and went on the disabled list for two months.[4] When he returned in mid-July, the Mets began winning, climbing from last place on August 30 to win the National League Eastern Division pennant.[18][30][31] They then proceeded to defeat the heavily favored Cincinnati Reds in the 1973 National League Championship Series.[32] In the World Series, the Mets took the Oakland Athletics to the seventh and final game, before they were defeated.[33] As he had in 1969, Grote caught every inning of every post-season game for the Mets in 1973.[4] Looking back on his two pennant-winning seasons with the Mets, Grote said, "It (the 1969 season) was no miracle. Now, '73 was a miracle."[3]
In 1974, Grote was batting .287 with four home runs and 27 runs batted in to earn his second All-Star selection, however, injuries were beginning to take their toll and he split the catching duties with Duffy Dyer.[4][34] Grote rebounded in 1975, posting a career-high .295 batting average in 119 games and led all National League catchers with a .995 fielding percentage.[1][35] At Veterans Stadium on July 4, 1975, Grote stepped in as a pinch hitter against longtime teammate Tug McGraw, who had been traded to the Philadelphia Phillies during the off-season. With the Mets down 3–2, Grote connected for a game-winning two-run home run.[36]
In August, after 12 seasons with the Mets, he was traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers for two players to be named later.[37]
Los Angeles Dodgers and Kansas City Royals[edit]
Shortly after joining the Dodgers, Grote struck out in his only career at-bat against former battery-mate Tom Seaver, who was now with the Reds.[38] During his two seasons with the Dodgers, he played part-time as a backup to Steve Yeager and appeared in two World Series against the New York Yankees. He retired from professional baseball after the 1978 season, only to be lured out of retirement in 1981 by the Kansas City Royals, who were experiencing a shortage of catchers.[39] On June 3, 1981, at the age of 38, Grote went 3 for 4 with a grand slam home run, a double, and a stolen base, driving in a team-record seven runs.[4] After another short stint with the Dodgers, he retired for good after the 1981 season.
Career statistics[edit]
In a 16-year major league career, Grote played in 1,421 games, accumulating 1,092 hits in 4,339 at bats for a .252 career batting average along with 39 home runs and 404 runs batted in.[1] He ended his career with a .991 fielding percentage,[1] which at the time of his retirement was eighth highest all-time among catchers. On April 22, 1970, Grote set a major league record with 20 putouts in a game when Tom Seaver threw 19 strikeouts against the San Diego Padres.[40][41] He is the Mets all-time leader in games played as a catcher (1,176).[42] Grote caught 116 shutouts in his career, ranking him 15th all-time among catchers.[43]
Grote called the pitches for some of the most outstanding pitchers of his era, including Tom Seaver, Jerry Koosman, Tug McGraw, Nolan Ryan, Tommy John, Don Sutton, and Dan Quisenberry.[2] He possessed a strong and accurate throwing arm against opposing baserunners. Hall of Fame inductee Lou Brock found Grote to be one of the most difficult catchers on which to attempt a stolen base,[2] and though Hall of Fame catcher Johnny Bench was the perennial Gold Glove winner during their careers in the National League together, Bench once said of Grote, "If Grote and I were on the same team, I would be playing third base."[3]

Post retirement and honors[edit]
After his playing career had ended, Grote spent 1985 as manager of the Lakeland Tigers and the Birmingham Barons.[44] In 1989, he played for the St. Lucie Legends in the Senior Professional Baseball Association.[2] He was inducted into the Texas Baseball Hall of Fame in 1991, and the New York Mets Hall of Fame in 1992.[45][46] In 1998, he was inducted into the San Antonio Sports Hall of Fame.[47] On October 8, 2011, Grote was inducted into the Trinity University Athletic Hall of Fame.[5]
Grote appeared as a Mystery Guest on the television game show What's My Line?.[48] He can also be seen as a TV guest star, along with his other 1969 N.Y. Met teammates, on Everybody Loves Raymond's episode of "Big Shots", filmed in 1999.
In 2010 and 2011, Grote was color commentator with Mike Capps on the Round Rock Express (PCL) radio home broadcasts.
Grote has three children, Sandy, Jeff and Jennifer and six grandchildren.
Grote and his wife, Cheryl, were married on November 16, 1997. They met in San Antonio, Texas and moved to Belton, Texas in January 2008. He is the step-father to Cheryl's triplets, Laurel, Joseph and Jacob and step-grandfather to her two grandchildren.
Grote's current interests are church, family, baseball, gardening, and volunteering for the Belton Police Department.

Late summer already, and in the cool days after the first rain I can feel fall pressing close. I went to pick blackberries, but the rain had washed out all their sweetness. Still, my walk brought me to a scrap of old orchard, caught between new houses and the bike path. There were apple trees scattering pale, early apples, a crabapple with squat, red fruit, and there, at the edge of the blackberries, two more trees, plums hanging like clutches of eggs among their dark leaves. I stood under the plum trees with a long stick and whacked at the branches till the fruit fell. ("Can I help you?" a neighbor called, walking into her garden. She looked suspicious. "I'm picking plums!" I called back, holding up a handful as proof. "Oh." She turned away, reassured or disinterested, and went back inside before I could offer her the fruit.) The plums were almost past ripe, yellow-green bruising purple, and so soft that most split on impact. And they were sweet. Dripping, face-smearing, shirt-staining sweet. I hunted them through the long grass and brambles. When I lifted the crate, the juice ran down my legs.
The Wednesday market is over.
